Track 5
Deserted Island - Lighthouse Area
Looks like it's time for the 4th battle.
Time flies.
I'm so glad our badges were redistributed first....!
But.... that, bear cub..... what... happened...?
Maybe they'll explain it now.
So the one in charge of today's battle is... Fuefuki, huh.
.......
Go on then, Fuefuki-kun. The instructions for your battle.
......
Yachiyo-kun....?
...yaps.
Pardon?
Shut your yaps, you little gnats.
Wha.....?
Before we start the battle, please surrender all your badges here.
Eh, but....
I believe that the badges are separate from the team battles.
JUST SHUT THE HELL UP AND DO AS I SAY, YOU INSECTS!!! DO YOU WANT TO GET TRAMPLED UNDER MY SPIKED HEELS?!
(Yachiyo-kun is wearing sneakers though....)
Come on! Hurry up and RUN!
*WHIP!!*
Oyaoya, he's resorted to using that grass vine as a whip... Fuefuki-kun is rather enthusiastic about being in charge for this battle.
How unexpected. I wasn't aware he was into that stuff.
Today he seems quite different from the usual...
Duh, cuz payday's tomorrow.
(That red pom-pom, it's the same one Geppei had..... Is this a trend or something.....?)
(I-is that...)
So this is what happens when it attaches to a human being! Interesting!
Has everyone submitted their badges? The theme for the 4th battle is THIIIIIIIS!!!!
CHALLENGE: ADORE ME WITH ALL YOUR MIGHT.
Adore you......
Meaning?
Isn't that obvious! Whoever can exhilarate me the most within the time limit will win!
Massage my shoulders, or lick my feet, things like that! Use those idiotically smooth brains of yours and think of something!!!
So we gots to give Yappu some fan service?
The reward for this challenge was supposed to be the ruins area.....buuuuuuut!!!
Because SOME naughty kids already went over there, I'm changing it.
What........?
If you win, you'll be rewarded with all the badges I've gathered here. However, if I'm not satisfied with your adoration.....
I WILL BE TAKING ALL THE BADGES INSTEAAAAADDDD!!!!!
All or nothing, huh? Things are getting heated!
Woah woah, this isn't something to be happy about!
This is a team battle, right? It'd make no sense for neither teams to win.
Is the referee winning instead allowed?
T-that's true... What do the organizers think?
We decided that the rules for each battle would be entirely left up to the person in charge....
Welp, it'll probs be fine. It's funny.
Netaro... did that alien we chased away from that bear cub yesterday take over Yachiyo instead to try and take all the badges....?
Tis what it looks like!
The participants for this battle will be everyone who hasn't partaken in one yet.
For Team Ocean, that would be Lu-san, Kurama-kun, and Hachinoya-kun.
For Team Air, it'll be Renga-kun, Muneuji-kun, and Chihiro-kun!
NOW, COME AND ADORE ME TO YOUR HEART'S CONTENT! HONOR ME! SERVE ME! GROVEL ON YOUR KNEES BEFORE MEEEEE!!!!
*conch horn HOOOOONKs*
Psst, guys! I know this is all kinda sudden, but would you listen to Chii's bombtastic idea? *whisper whisper whisper....*
*sigh....* It's started... Being forced to 'adore' someone at work has gotta be peak sexual harrassment, right. If we sued him for this we'd 100% win.
Fuefuki's behavior today is quite strange. Actually, that unsettling aura of his is just the usual, isn't it....?
After he suddenly took all our badges, everything just became a hot mess. Honestly, I just can't. Let's just pass on this challenge, yeah?
.......
(Yesterday, Netaro gave the bear cub a can of honey to chase that alien away....)
Flashback Start
I cannot have that guy destroying this planet when my Beatrice is out there somewhere.
Maybe I will~ do something!
Which means, specifically...?
Here I have "Call Me Queen Bee! Can of Honey Collected by My Servants", one of the canned food items that were provided to us.
Mhmhm.
I shall snap it open.
*sniff sniff*
Ooh.. the honey scent is so rich.
I shall get him to ingest this.
*lick lick, nom nom....*
He's licking it so happily.
Are you satisfied now?
*washooooom*
Ah...!
(The red pom pom came off....?!)
Now, do-something is a success!
Flashback End
(I don't really get the logic, but it seems like the goal is to satisfy the host that it's occupying.)
(Then I'll satisfy Yachiyo in this battle, just like Netaro did—)
Hachinoya. What do you think—
Yeah. I don't know if we can do it, but I intend to reach an agreement with him before every electronic device in the world is eaten up.
Hah.......?
That's why we absolutely have to win this battle.
I'm treating this with utmost seriousness, so please trust me and follow my lead.
Uh.......!
(W-why the hell is this guy so locked in.......?)
(Electronic devices..... agreement.....? What on earth is he talking about... but, this passion....)
(If I show any hesitation, I might be forced to shout all the way from the top of the lighthouse just to get some motivation......!)
(I do not want to make the same mistake from when I was a reindeer. To minimize any damage that could be done, I'll end this quickly...!)2
G-got it.
If you have a plan in mind, tell us.
Thanks, both of you. My plan is quite simple—
Oya. It seems that Team Air has finished their preparations first.
Yappuu! Please indulge yourself in our OP cutieful performance~!!
Without further ado, please take a look at this.
