Disclaimer
I am a casual using hacks and amateur knowledge to translate.
There's at least one line here I'm not 100% sure on. If it sounds weird / doesn't flow, that's on me. Sorry!
Please refer to Hetascanlation's work (when they get there) as the definitive translation.

Translation Notes
General:
Fonts are swapped around based on their tone/volume, so it might look random, but I'm just trying to replicate the original font choices.
Page 1+:
• Reminder that China ends most of his sentences with ある (aru) or よろし (yoroshi), accented Japanese and default polite language respectively. Some of his word choices are also the archaic form. Additionally, he uses the archaic pronoun 我 (wa/ware) which is often translated in a haughty way like "oneself."
Page 4:
• "Werewolf" here refers to the social deduction game Mafia (where there's a number of people playing as mafia who win by killing town members, and other players as town must deduce who they are to prevent mafia from winning). In Japan, the game is called 人狼 (jinrou / werewolf). So America is basically saying, "So you're calling me the liar/fraud," but it seemed wrong to erase the reference entirely.
Page 5:
• America is attempting to say 謝謝 (xièxie / thank you) here, but it's written in katakana, so it's clearly meant to carry an accent with it. So I wrote it as, well, the way an American would pronounce it.
Page 11:
• "Panda diplomacy" is China's practice of sending their endangered giant pandas to other countries as a symbol of goodwill and to strengthen diplomatic relations. As pandas are one of the most recognisable emblems of China, it's a strong source of "soft power" (the ability to influence and shape the preferences of others through non-coercive means such as culture, values, and economics). While the practice started as early as the 1940s, it didn't become prominent in China's diplomacy until the 50s - 70s.
• Kang Kang and Lan Lan were the first pair of giant pandas gifted to Japan (at the Ueno Zoo) after the normalization of relations between the two countries. Unfortunately, both failed to give birth to babies, and both died at the age of 10 in 1979 and 1980.
• Until November 2023, the US actually had the most number of pandas, though like most countries they were on loan from China. As of fall 2023, only 4 remain stateside (with their return scheduled for the end of 2024), because China has not been "renewing" its panda leases - likely due to the tense relationship between the two countries. After those returns, Japan took the top spot with its remaining 8 pandas, though I can't find when they're set to be returned. (At least 1 was due in 2020, but had its stay extended due to the pandemic, and then extended again in 2023 due to medical treatment.)

• Sure enough America is the culprit! As previously mentioned, irl America contributes far and away the most to the UN, at a whopping 22%. Recently, politics within the US have debated the merits of continuing to pay so much in comparison to other member countries, as the belief that they're not pulling their weight either financially or physically (i.e. boots on the ground) and that the US should spend that money on itself and its peoples instead is growing stronger. Hence, consistent payments have lapsed as resident presidential administrations have gone back and forth between continuing to support the UN, and wanting to reduce contributions.
• Who is the "No.2" mentioned in the explanatory paragraph? I'm assuming it's referring to the number 2 contributor, China, but I don't know what those "wishes" would be or why they would effect the US paying its dues to the UN. As said above, tensions between the two countries is high right now, due to political disagreements and economic "competition."
• So why did Japan select China to find the defaulter? I dunno... kinda seems like he was just messing with China deliberately.
