Dudu sprang high into the air like a tightly coiled spring launching loose, his rainbow hair bouncing wildly.
166Please respect copyright.PENANAcs6Memzy0f
"BOING!"
166Please respect copyright.PENANA5YNnUpGXfh
His leg coiled mid-air like a steel spring, then—
166Please respect copyright.PENANAGH0qdyI5Al
"SPRING DROP KICK!"
166Please respect copyright.PENANAMLxPeKWh3W
WHAM!
166Please respect copyright.PENANASFIhiOXAdn
Eleo blocked with both arms, skidding backward, his feet scraping the deck. The force nearly launched him off the ship.
166Please respect copyright.PENANA3FW9wa4P6p
Eleo gritted his teeth. "Whoa—! Okay, ow. That kinda hurt."
166Please respect copyright.PENANAN3FU76OiVQ
Meanwhile, the demon girl frantically searched the ship, flipping over barrels and crates.
166Please respect copyright.PENANADOwVEdldKS
"Ugh! Where the hell is a safe boat when you need one?!"
166Please respect copyright.PENANA2phXZmUCux
Dudu landed back on the deck, stretching his shoulders.
166Please respect copyright.PENANA9iwUTzbHRn
"Hey, Mr. Rat! You gonna help me or what?!"
166Please respect copyright.PENANAKY7SoaJGpD
Bo’s giant pet rat twitched its nose, then charged at Eleo with blinding speed.
166Please respect copyright.PENANAUCF6WppYbA
SQUEEEEEEK!
166Please respect copyright.PENANAE6DIkkp9r8
In four seconds…
166Please respect copyright.PENANAA3E1ktjNie
BAM! SMACK! CRUNCH!
166Please respect copyright.PENANAjE5pgW2Tgd
The rat was already on the ground, dazed, holding up a tiny white flag in surrender.
166Please respect copyright.PENANA4v4pFNngIa
The entire crew stared.
166Please respect copyright.PENANAhHqOOyE68L
Dudu’s jaw dropped. “…You gotta be kidding me.”
166Please respect copyright.PENANAFg1YbTlE6H
The demon girl raised an eyebrow. “Seriously? That fast?”
166Please respect copyright.PENANAmqvSuTMjrG
Eleo dusted off his hands. “Huh. Guess I’m stronger than a rat.”
166Please respect copyright.PENANAeCA80l31QW
Dudu facepalmed. “…No shit, idiot.”
166Please respect copyright.PENANAtCrar7hHwS
He flopped onto the ship dramatically, groaning.
166Please respect copyright.PENANAGBCHIL6LgD
Eleo cracked his knuckles. "Okay, my turn—INK!"
166Please respect copyright.PENANAZ6ufaqETcb
He clapped his hands together.
166Please respect copyright.PENANAQMOFPNi4N7
His arms transformed into a massive black cannon.
166Please respect copyright.PENANA5P2yn6TeIJ
"INK CANNON!"
166Please respect copyright.PENANAmFRvQIGJWY
BOOOOM!
166Please respect copyright.PENANAi2JkZ4pWcm
A huge black ink ball blasted toward Dudu.
166Please respect copyright.PENANAoXVeDfrNn4
Dudu’s eyes widened. "CRAP—!"
166Please respect copyright.PENANAA0Khqp1j37
He instantly stretched his legs, making them ridiculously tall to dodge.
166Please respect copyright.PENANAysdNcSsPZs
The ink cannonball sailed right past him.
166Please respect copyright.PENANAp84383HKCp
BAM!
166Please respect copyright.PENANATNZjjjMFhE
It smashed into the ship's hull instead.
166Please respect copyright.PENANATSUVndfnWo
Dudu’s face went pale. "Ah shit—"
166Please respect copyright.PENANAMHmpDy5h8d
The ship shook violently.
166Please respect copyright.PENANA7QmXsuUsHC
Dudu blinked. "…Maybe I shoulda just let him hit me."
166Please respect copyright.PENANAJkJcg2l7gK
Dudu turned to his crew. "DON’T JUST STAND THERE, YOU LAZY BASTARDS! FIX THE SHIP!"
166Please respect copyright.PENANAlcMtXlCyRo
His crew groaned, rolling on the floor like they’d been mortally wounded.
166Please respect copyright.PENANA42Chu47Huv
"Ughhh, boss… We’re dying over here…"
166Please respect copyright.PENANAzA16nUxqVW
Dudu squinted. “…YOU ASSHOLES WERE FAKING?!”
166Please respect copyright.PENANAvh9QcRthrB
The crew sprang up in perfect sync.
166Please respect copyright.PENANAcskLKYvgz1
"Sorry, boss!"
166Please respect copyright.PENANAB4WPruG3fm
Dudu facepalmed again.
166Please respect copyright.PENANArAedmNVgTy
Meanwhile, Eleo bolted toward the ship’s railing.
166Please respect copyright.PENANABF27iVpvVR
“Welp, time to go!”
166Please respect copyright.PENANAPqbOYfxoZC
He grabbed the demon girl mid-run.
166Please respect copyright.PENANAyRZXiANERm
“Wha—WAIT, WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING?!”
166Please respect copyright.PENANAWlewTSvFFn
They both jumped off the flying ship.
166Please respect copyright.PENANAT2hm32qbLn
Dudu, BK, Bo, and the entire crew ran to the railing and leaned over, staring down.
166Please respect copyright.PENANA2nOtXwnSYx
Silence.
166Please respect copyright.PENANAeGtYDt1nt2
Bo scratched his head. “…I guess he didn’t wanna die alone?”
166Please respect copyright.PENANAUBZ3ynXqa8
The entire crew turned to look at him.
166Please respect copyright.PENANAl1btoIE8t4
A beat of silence.
166Please respect copyright.PENANAAqoVycLrGH
Then—
166Please respect copyright.PENANAYcl2TRkKpN
They all BURST INTO LAUGHTER.
166Please respect copyright.PENANAolDSyZxzou
The entire crew collapsed onto the deck, rolling in laughter.
166Please respect copyright.PENANAu11HRFzN3F
Dudu wiped away tears. "Alright, alright—somebody get the binoculars. Let’s see if the bunny actually survives."
166Please respect copyright.PENANA6hDp6KZszw
Dudu snatched the binoculars from his crew and scanned the water below.
166Please respect copyright.PENANAOWEpqj8mtu
Nothing.
166Please respect copyright.PENANAMuZM9qhjSS
No splashes, no floating bodies—just the vast, endless sea.
166Please respect copyright.PENANAVbyKPiUjQd
He smirked, tossing the binoculars over his shoulder. "Welp, sucks for them. Guess they’re gonna drown. HA! Sucks to be them!"
166Please respect copyright.PENANACOlYXRoZXe
The crew burst into cheers.
166Please respect copyright.PENANAv0leU7PIPN
Dudu clapped his hands. "Alright, boys, let’s get moving! I need to find Kuma and beat his ass! Then I’LL be the strongest!"
166Please respect copyright.PENANAomNLPgmqjp
The crew roared.
166Please respect copyright.PENANAc4Pa9espfe
“YEEEAAAAHHH!!!”
166Please respect copyright.PENANAOhzqIt070n
BOOM!
166Please respect copyright.PENANAbKYd9TSJLm
The ship rocketed forward at ridiculous speed, disappearing into the sky like a shooting star.
166Please respect copyright.PENANAHN4M7wB6Wc
Lilith sank deeper and deeper into the ocean, her long purple ponytail drifting like silk.
166Please respect copyright.PENANAFiyk8SJv2z
Her eyes fluttered as she saw bubbles escaping her lips.
166Please respect copyright.PENANAhdMoX45K19
(So this is how I die? Drowned in the middle of nowhere because of some idiot rabbit? I swear, if I become a ghost, I’m haunting his ass—)
166Please respect copyright.PENANA8WEu5CV0gn
SPLASH!
166Please respect copyright.PENANAd6clYvB6i7
Suddenly, a strong hand grabbed her, pulling her onto a warm back.
166Please respect copyright.PENANAhLedYWUSha
Eleo kicked furiously toward the surface, holding her up.
166Please respect copyright.PENANA0PW7HPUKsx
Finally, they burst through the water, gasping for air.
166Please respect copyright.PENANAbiZhhZEVn9
WHACK!
166Please respect copyright.PENANALc7YOhCJvW
Lilith slapped Eleo HARD on the head.
166Please respect copyright.PENANA88hRHJ30sy
"YOU ASSHOLE! YOU ALMOST KILLED ME!"
166Please respect copyright.PENANA5HFnPrIXgL
Eleo rubbed his head. "Ow! What the hell, jerk?! I just saved your life!"
166Please respect copyright.PENANA0KV4ZMPTWx
Lilith crossed her arms, shivering. "Maybe I wouldn’t have needed saving if you HAD A PLAN!"
166Please respect copyright.PENANAtnrnhyQuae
Eleo grinned and clapped his hands together. "Ink Bubble!"
166Please respect copyright.PENANAh7dCbgZCD3
A large, floating ink bubble formed around them, lifting them just above the water.
166Please respect copyright.PENANAnX5eB4s1iT
Eleo wiped his brow. "There! Now we don’t need to swim!"
166Please respect copyright.PENANAxBcRMBcGAK
Lilith narrowed her eyes. "…Why didn’t you do that in the first place?"
166Please respect copyright.PENANAFirQS5WzGC
Eleo blinked. "Uh… oh yeah. That would’ve been smart."
166Please respect copyright.PENANAgR7fSBxGEO
Lilith facepalmed.
166Please respect copyright.PENANApcBUZWcGqB
Eleo stuck out his hand. "Anyway, I’m Eleo!"
166Please respect copyright.PENANAt6Vf70MGWa
She hesitated before sighing. "Lilith."
166Please respect copyright.PENANAtwqycpQifm
Eleo grinned. "Well, Lilith, I’m on my way to… uh… I dunno, really."
166Please respect copyright.PENANALK0ymuSUVC
Lilith rolled her eyes. "There’s a town up north from here."
166Please respect copyright.PENANAp9WHDYVdaq
She hesitated, cheeks turning slightly pink. "And… thanks. For saving me."
166Please respect copyright.PENANAYq4MQ1NS97
Eleo grinned wider. "No problem, Lilith!"
166Please respect copyright.PENANACmXz8znSuj
He stepped inside the ink bubble, testing its movement.
166Please respect copyright.PENANAPOGegdjCbU
It floated forward with him.
166Please respect copyright.PENANA0OCQBoD5y7
Eleo threw his fists in the air. "YESS! PERFECT!"
166Please respect copyright.PENANApMxYpI3GrB
Lilith raised an eyebrow. "…You do know we literally just fell off a flying ship, right? Why not just use that fancy ship over there?"
166Please respect copyright.PENANAB0kksTjNyc
She pointed at a small abandoned pirate ship floating nearby.
166Please respect copyright.PENANARM8KbUidxJ
Eleo shrugged. "You can use it if you want. I’ma stick with my ink bubble!"
166Please respect copyright.PENANATHi0eOoMxX
Lilith groaned. "Are you serious? What kind of idiot prefers an unstable magic bubble over a perfectly fine ship?!"
166Please respect copyright.PENANA1YfXr7zFTP
Eleo nodded proudly. "THIS idiot!"
166Please respect copyright.PENANANi0c0HJu5o
Lilith sighed, rubbing her temples. "Fine. Then at least swim me over there—I can’t swim."
166Please respect copyright.PENANAlNzCEWaFDO
Eleo grinned. "Nope!"
166Please respect copyright.PENANAZNdIExLqmv
Lilith stared at him. "…Are you serious?"
166Please respect copyright.PENANAowwyYpJBeo
Eleo hopped along the water in his ink bubble.
166Please respect copyright.PENANAcvnBuydISR
"La la la~! Ink bubble! Ink bubble! This thing is awesome!"
166Please respect copyright.PENANAmlOgB305hU
Lilith sat inside the bubble, arms crossed. "I swear, I’m going to kill him."
166Please respect copyright.PENANAWcq81aaAff
Then—
166Please respect copyright.PENANA0g4IPJjCcP
Eleo suddenly froze.
166Please respect copyright.PENANAVh6VGLxblm
His eyes widened in horror.
166Please respect copyright.PENANATtffviMxkQ
"OH NO!"
166Please respect copyright.PENANAi0y3S1v3rX
Lilith snapped to attention. "What?! What happened?!"
166Please respect copyright.PENANAjXG6EwojrU
Eleo fell to his knees dramatically. "MY CARROTS! I FORGOT ABOUT THEM!"
166Please respect copyright.PENANAFpImPpHfWQ
Lilith stared at him in disbelief.
166Please respect copyright.PENANAVRF9Kmfi2t
"…ARE YOU FREAKING SERIOUS?!"
166Please respect copyright.PENANAgJ6nHmShuO
Eleo grabbed his ears. "THAT WAS MY ONLY FOOD! HOW AM I GONNA EAT NOW?!"
166Please respect copyright.PENANAdSpt3ltgjh
Lilith let out a long, exhausted sigh.
166Please respect copyright.PENANA8bE4Tku7uw
She snapped her fingers.
166Please respect copyright.PENANAuwCn67JmCH
POOF!
166Please respect copyright.PENANA1hPIGGPuNP
A fresh carrot appeared in her palm.
166Please respect copyright.PENANAfKIT2WPGKw
Eleo’s eyes sparkled like the sun.
166Please respect copyright.PENANANwYriVmPjC
"LILITH! YOU BEAUTIFUL GENIUS PRINCESS! THANK YOUUUU!"
166Please respect copyright.PENANAlGXj22GTNn
He hugged her tightly.
166Please respect copyright.PENANAHPD14ky3HI
Lilith stiffened, turning red. "H-Hey! Personal space, idiot!"
166Please respect copyright.PENANA6lnIIsqGrn
Eleo started chomping down the carrot. "Mmmm! So good!"
166Please respect copyright.PENANAtIRm3lBieA
As he ate, he suddenly noticed her horns and tail.
166Please respect copyright.PENANAcnjcjGAEUC
"Hey, Lilith, why do you have horns and a tail? Are you like a really hardcore cosplayer or something?"
166Please respect copyright.PENANASGIXhukd9c
Lilith exhaled deeply, pinching the bridge of her nose.
166Please respect copyright.PENANAqAz5wmXFvN
"…I’m a demon, you moron."
166Please respect copyright.PENANAVpDC7G2BRY
Eleo blinked.
166Please respect copyright.PENANAvJ2bPenL0B
"OH! That makes sense! …Wait, no, it doesn’t. What’s a demon princess doing locked up in a pirate ship?"
166Please respect copyright.PENANAVywRLjfaa8
Lilith crossed her arms. "Hmph. None of your business."
166Please respect copyright.PENANAZgOejSg0TB
Eleo shrugged. "Oh well, at least you’re free now!"
166Please respect copyright.PENANAqNfhs6RLk9
Lilith glanced at him, her expression softening just a little.
166Please respect copyright.PENANAlRg9MkkOQg
(He’s an idiot… but he did save me.)
166Please respect copyright.PENANAj5CbSAguOl
Eleo stood proudly on his ink bubble, chewing his carrot.
166Please respect copyright.PENANA8DJlgvcmzc
"Alright! Time for adventure!"
166Please respect copyright.PENANAgB6sBfgztw
After a few hours go by the ink bubble drifted across the calm sea, carrying Eleo and Lilith toward their destination.
166Please respect copyright.PENANAgP0KvJkwsS
Lilith crossed her arms, staring ahead. "We should be getting close now."
166Please respect copyright.PENANAPqVMXidvxL
Eleo was lounging inside the bubble, casually munching on another carrot. "Man, I hope this place has food. I’m starving."
166Please respect copyright.PENANAdUIa4TJuXS
Lilith sighed. "It’s called Burger Town. What do you think they sell?"
166Please respect copyright.PENANA9I8GxZM2HU
Eleo’s ears perked up. "BURGER TOWN?!" He jumped up so fast that the bubble wobbled. "You mean, like, a whole town of BURGERS?! This might be the greatest place ever!"
166Please respect copyright.PENANAj2M1OIdhNW
Lilith facepalmed. "It’s not literally made of burgers, you idiot!"
166Please respect copyright.PENANAzZZDSVJUBx
Eleo wasn’t listening. "What if the houses are made of buns?! The streets are made of fries! Oh! Oh! And the rivers are flowing with ketchup—"
166Please respect copyright.PENANA94QD0mcri4
BOOM.
166Please respect copyright.PENANA9ze1tN1UNt
A sudden gust of wind hit them. The scent of smoke and ash filled the air.
166Please respect copyright.PENANAII2xxZqscA
Lilith snapped her head forward, her eyes widening.
166Please respect copyright.PENANA7nN7X2LonF
Eleo blinked. "Huh?"
166Please respect copyright.PENANAESiF8qLcIz
As their ink bubble reached the shore, they finally saw it—
166Please respect copyright.PENANABoci7Na3jF
Burger Town… completely destroyed.
166Please respect copyright.PENANAcmmxXzeq80
The once vibrant city was now a wasteland of rubble. Buildings were collapsed, streets were cracked, and the famous Burger Tower—the town’s pride—was split in half. Smoke rose from the ruins, the scent of burning wood lingering in the air.
166Please respect copyright.PENANAXvtIiKjcnE
Eleo’s ears drooped. "Uh… I don’t think they’re selling burgers anymore."
166Please respect copyright.PENANAJsyOaezFS8
Lilith stepped forward, her eyes darting around in disbelief. "No… this can’t be right…"
166Please respect copyright.PENANAKfJHph3TcL
Eleo knelt down, picking up a broken wooden sign that once read BURGER TOWN SPECIAL: TRIPLE CHEESE DELUXE! He sighed. "Man, I really wanted to try that…"
166Please respect copyright.PENANA1kyReNbc4u
Lilith ignored him. Her hands clenched into fists. "There were people here. Families. Kids." She looked around, her sharp eyes scanning for any survivors.
166Please respect copyright.PENANA62lkOnL1jj
Then—
166Please respect copyright.PENANA5U4WzxbVhM
CRUNCH.
166Please respect copyright.PENANA3YtxzLhyom
Eleo stepped on something.
166Please respect copyright.PENANA5hkScBrnDS
He looked down… and froze.
166Please respect copyright.PENANAN1m1zvnURP
A shattered Toy bear… covered in blood.
166Please respect copyright.PENANAX8WUj0r5U3
Lilith stiffened.
166Please respect copyright.PENANA6ypkw2M2ny
Eleo tilted his head. "Well… that’s probably not good."
166Please respect copyright.PENANA771iZsz1t3
Then—
166Please respect copyright.PENANAdCKBAZjxkl
A weak voice coughed from the rubble.
166Please respect copyright.PENANAHV8hBpK61k
"H…Help…"
166Please respect copyright.PENANAr5Y0KdzKur
Both Eleo and Lilith snapped their heads toward the sound.
166Please respect copyright.PENANAX7csrDHSNL
A man, bloodied and barely conscious, was trapped under a collapsed wall.
166Please respect copyright.PENANANHxw1Xv17t
Lilith rushed over, kneeling beside him. "Hey! Stay with me!"
166Please respect copyright.PENANAMQuBswKO4G
The man slowly opened his eyes. "D… Demons… they… attacked…"
166Please respect copyright.PENANAwVBU7W1O5F
Lilith’s stomach dropped. "Demons?!"
166Please respect copyright.PENANAVjFtq1JcXO
The man weakly grabbed her wrist. "They… were looking… for someone…"
166Please respect copyright.PENANALqp8WWpchk
Eleo scratched his head. "Oh? Who?"
166Please respect copyright.PENANAlwvMSgCOVx
The man’s eyes flickered toward Lilith.
166Please respect copyright.PENANAaP8XCth4LS
Lilith felt a cold chill run down her spine.
166Please respect copyright.PENANAOMm9sHU0EI
Eleo raised an eyebrow. "Wait, wait, wait—are you saying those demons destroyed the whole town looking for Lilith?"
166Please respect copyright.PENANAfMEewdwPWY
The man gave a faint nod before losing consciousness.
166Please respect copyright.PENANAnAsn57N9Ih
Lilith’s fists clenched.
166Please respect copyright.PENANAZKHKEIpahv
Eleo grinned. "Ooooh! Does this mean we’re gonna fight some demons?!"
166Please respect copyright.PENANAP292K1vPm6
Lilith deadpanned. "This is NOT a good thing, you idiot!"
166Please respect copyright.PENANARhp7q1O6Tb
Eleo shrugged. "Still sounds fun!"
