Otohime turned around. Rats, it's literal punks. Digimon ones, too. And they were armed with clubs. Thiiiis is gonna get ugly. Jiro, the only Digimon among them, yipped and froze up, turning invisible to hide from the enemies. Otohime did not mind, she merely pulled forth her bat. "Who ya callin' baby ya overgrown toad? If ya want our money, ya gotta come and take it from us. She readied her bat, eager for a fight. She did not glow like Ryouta, but she still -radiated- fighting spirit. "Whaddya say, big boy, we gonna be nice an' go easy on em, or do we send 'em cryin' for momma?"

"What's a toad? Is it delicious?" one of the Goblimon quipped.
"If it's delicious, then I guess I want to eat toad too!" another added
"IDIOTS, THEY'RE CALL US THESE TOADS! I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT THE FUCK IT WAS, BUT IT WAS AN INSULT! WE, THE GOBLINWORKS GANG! THIS INSULT COULDN'T PASS!!"
"IT'S AN INSULT!?"
More and more outrage voiced from the Goblimons. Ryouta sighed at the ridiculousness of the situation, but irregardless, when it come to this, he decided to take the action first. The youth suddenly charged toward the head of the pack. He was distracted, and definitely did not expect the human to just like that charged at him. Ryouta used that chance to kick him on the jaw, launching him up. The ball poofed from the Shamamon's hand.
"HOW DARE YOU! CAPTAIN, HANG IN THERE!!"
But of course he didn't stop there. He wrestled one of the club from a shocked Goblimon and smacked him on the head with it.
"Does that answer your question? Ryuko-san," Ryouta asked to the older girl. "Make them cry to mama."
"I don't have m--"
SLAM. Ryouta brutally smacked the club to the said Goblimon's jaw, knocking it out cold while knocking some teeth off.
"Uzee (Shut the fuck up)."

Hehe, these goblins make -her- look smart. They don't even know what a toad is! And then they immidiately began to panic from just one guy fighting back! What pathetic little shits! Well, the time for some bastard bashing had come!~ Otohime grinned under her mask. "I like dis. Hang on tight, lil' buddy." "W-w-wh???" Otohime then ran towards the one Goblimon Ryouta hadn't manhandled yet, and aimed to bash its body with her bat. "Here's a lil' sumthin' to think about, fella." The Babydmon clung to his partner's head, utterly overwhelmed and scared by this action! Why must Otohime be so enthusiastic?!

The Goblimons of course outraged from two of its allies downed from Ryouta's attack (looks like the Shamamon Captain is conscious, but also still twitching from the pain). But the moment of one about to attack. it got hit by Ryuko's bat to the stomach!
"OOF!"
By now it looked like a street brawl. Between the baseball bat swinging girl, the club swinging boy, and the scared baby dragon, plus idiotic goblins, it looked like some Jackie Chan movie. The goons are Digimon, so it's harder for them to stay down. Luckily for Ryouta and Ryuko, they're too dumb to even use their skills. it ended up with teeth flying, bodies tossed around, and all the comedic gang fight.
"I GOT YOU!"
One in particular tried to attack the tall boy...
CRANK "You did not."
only to get a trash lid to the face, stunning it with humorous expression planted. Ryouta grabbed a trash bin and dump it on another. It was empty, but that was really ideal. He started banging the said item with the club, ringing the Goblin's ear, enough for it to get dizzy that it tripped on another felled Goblimon.
"DAMMIT, WE CAN'T WIN, RUN RUN!"
The Shamamon barked an order. Those who were able to run immediately drag their allies out of the alley. Poor those guys tho. their mohawk could caught fire from all that friction from dragging.
"WE WON'T FORGET THIS!"
Ah yeah, classic small fry parting words at the end. Heh.

Otohime looked after the fleeing goblins and threw an empty can of Digi Cola after them. "Yeah, run ya cowards, try to be a challenge next time!" She then put her bat away and dusted herself off. "Hah, these wimps are all the same. Big mouth, tiny brain, nonexistent guts." The Babydmon turned back to visibility, clearly in awe over the two. "Wh-wh-whoa, you're cool, Mr. Ryouta! A-a-a-and you too, R-r-r-ryuko-chan!" Ryuko patted the dragon "You're too good to me, little buddy. Then she turned back to Ryouta. "So what now, big boy? More miscreant smashing? Some recreational shopliftin'? Just loiterin'?

Just as Ryouta wanted to answer, suddenly a Goblimon approached them again.
"What?"
"Um, I'd like my club back."
Ryouta looked at the club on his hand and the Goblimon. Then he smacked the club to the guy's head. It's not as hard as back then when he fought against the gobs though.
"OWW, WHY DID YOU DO THAT!?"
"DON'T RETURN TO THE DANGER JUST FOR SOME CLUB YOU IDIOT!!" of course he tossed the club away, then watches as the guy ran to chase his club. It was hilarious normally, but the situation was just too what the fuck to him. Ryouta just looked at Otohime again.
"...Don't tell you you seriously shoplifted? Oh well, what the fuck. I'm not here for shoplifting. My father owns a shop and I know how hard it is to sell at times, so no, fucking no, I don't want to shoplift. We'll die if we shoplift too. I don't want some dino on my ass. And we're not here to beat up some miscreants either... Wait a sec... OI, BASTARD THERE!"
"Y-YES!?" apparently the Goblimon from before still haven't left.
"YOU KNOW SOMEONE NAMED ILBERT HERE!?"
"I-I heard he's often that way..." he pointed at a small park nearby.
"Thanks.Looks like we'll go there."

The idiocy of these goblins amused Otohime to no end. She snickered as the gob returned to get its club and got more bashing as a result. Then, Ryouta mentioned his distaste for shoplifting, and the shop of his dad. She rolled her one visible eye. "Ugh, fine, no shoplifting. Jeez, what are ya, a cop?" At the same time, she gently patted Jiro's head to get his attention. "Y-y-y-yes?" "Remind me tok look where that Noguchi bloke has his shop so I don't accidentally shoplift there. Wouldn't wanna threaten the old coot's livelihood." It seemed to be a sarcastic statement, but her tone of voice was completely sincere. Seems that she really didn't want Ryouta's dad to be harmed by her illicit hobby. The little dragon nodded. "I w-w-w-will!" "Thanks lil' guy." Then, she turned back to Ryouta. "To the park, eh? Well, lead the way."

"My uncle is a cop," Ryouta answered "I myself was planning to be one until... Until I figured out that I'm not cut for it. I have temper issue, and I'm more of a punishing force rather than law enforcer. I also found out that I'm doing this not for pure justice, but merely to satisfy my ego. Indulgence was my main motive in pursuing justice. Because my father was once swindled by his business partner. I find those who abuses the weak as despicable, so I drove my fist to their face, gut and elsewhere. Admittedly, thanks to that I gained my reputation as a banchou."
Ryouta sighed, and seem to not enjoying this quite a lot. He walked toward the park. On the way, he decided to make a small talk. "Brawling become my second nature. I just keep building more and more enemy. While for the bullied I'm a hero, I was also feared by lot of people. Being a violent guy was one of the reason. My teachers also gave up on me. Suspension never really get any effect on me. I just continue my fight, so my headmaster says that as long as my grade is great, they'll not do anything to me. My mother was obviously pissed, really pissed. She's a teacher herself, so she would double my homework. Even so... back then revenge was my only reason to do my banchou way.
...Until a while ago. I guess I softened up and rarely do this sort of thing again. I still fight, but I rarely send guy to hospital like before. What about yourself? Why do you shoplift and why do you do this? It felt like a completely different goals if you see it from outside. You hate those who bullies the weak, but you have problem with authority in general and seem to enjoy shoplifting. Why's that?"

"Temper issues? I hear ya. I got such huge troubles with my temper I ran afoul on a lotta people I shouldn't have pissed off, and as a result I got a lot of major beatings. Though, with cops in yer family, I wouldn't have expected you'd turn tha the ways of the delinquent." Otohime was walking beside him, hands put on the back of her head, seeming quite casual. "Gettin' swindled is a valid reason for rage, tho, so I getcha." She chuckled. "Guess you an me are kinda similar in that way. teachers gave up on me, had tha fight cuz I got nothin' else 'sides it. At least until Teach took me in." Following his shoplifting comment she turned to him. "What can I say? Old habits die hard. I never had a cosy childhood where I could get whatever I wanted. Stealin a lil' trifle like a Ramune or some Butamen was the only way I ever got somthin' nice for most of the time. I'm tryin tha stop, but I never seem to be able to. That thrill, that ticklin' in her fingers, it don't go away, cuz deep in your lizard brain a lil ugly kobold says "Dis is the only way yer ever gettin a nice snack" and he aint shutting up." Jiro said nothing, he just hugged his partner's head. "Ah, look at me, runnin me mouth, I said too much. Fact is the weak need someone that can kick the bastards in their place, cuz the baleful and evil only understand drastic measures. That's why I fight, that's why I bash someone's kneecaps in."

"Probably because he's in other town over," Ryouta admitted. "Then again, my path of delinquency only limited to bashing people's face in. I never really up for stealing. I... did it once, and never again. It was back when I was around... hmmm... 11 or 12? I don't remember. I was this hungry, really hungry. I saw a snack stand, and someone buying the food, but they left it. I was so hungry, I didn't have enough for breakfast. I sacrificed my portion for my little brother and sisters. My father and mother's job back then wasn't good enough to support four kids and themselves. I ended up bolted and stealing that. I ate it, I fucking ate it after I managed to ran away... but then I remembered how that person probably will get in trouble with their boss, or possibly lose job. It was sickening. it's the same with what my father's swindler did, so I vomited the entire thing. I quickly scrapped all spare changes under vending machines or whatever and paid for it. I vowed to never stole again after that.
I won't tell you it's bad because it IS bad, but... even then you have a conscience. And now you have a partner to stop you from doing things that you don't want to do. Partnership works like that I guess? Who knows, I don't remember, but it felt vaguely like that. Yo Jiro, you be a good voice of reason to your partner, ya hear?"
On the last comment though, Ryouta have to agree. The youth grinned at that. "Too many shitty people in this world. Gotta teach them that there will be karma haunting."
They seem to arrive at the park soon enough. There, Ryouta sat on one of the chair.
"Apparently Ilbert will appear here soonish." he pointed at the railroad that leads to the park, and schedule that seem to be written by hand instead of formally by machine.
"...Looks like he's independent from the Terminus Transport Company."

Otohime listened carefully to Ryouta's story. Once it was over, she shrugged. "Eh, guess that means you're the bigger man. I didn't learn what's right and what ain't until I was 16. But I try now. It's hard, but nothin' is ever easy." Jiro fluttered his tiny wings when Ryouta praised him. "A-a-a-ah! but Mr. Ryouta! I am not ch-ch-changing her, I only bring out w-w-w-what's already there!" Otohime gently poked Jiro's cheek. "Y'ain't callin' me soft, are ya?" "A-a-a-ah! N-n-n-no!" "Thought so." She then booped his snoot and chuckled. She very clearly appreciated Jiro's presence and everything he was doing.
Once they reached the park Otohime leaned against a lamp post and pulled out what looked like a packet of cigarettes, but which turned out to be lollipops. She pulled her medical mask down, put one into her mouth and gave another to Jiro. Without looking at Ryouta she intercepted his potential question. "No, I bought these, don't get yer knickers in a twist. Want one?" Her eyes wandered over to the train tracks. "That so? Good on 'im. More freedom that way."

"The common misconception is that kind is equated to being soft. That's not true. Those who have noble heart tends to be stronger than those who only flaunt off their strength for their own goal. In that sense, I'm quite weak heart wise," Ryouta commented. Although, he have to say he's very amused at the thoughts that she think he'll say something about it. "I don't particularly care that it's a deed done. I was going to ask if you actually want some snacks." With that, he took out a yakisoba from a small bag he carried. "Go have one if you want. I have no idea how long we have to wait."
...But looks like there's some trouble brewing. There's a sound of footsteps nearby. It sounded like barefoot people, only one in particular sounded a bit too heavy for it to be human. Sure enough, it's the Ogre Gang, followed by what looked like...
...Is that Ogremon napping while being pulled by his follower?
Sleepwalking?

Otohime was pondering this. "Guess there's somethin' to that, that's the second time I heard it. So it couldn't just be the ramblin' of a bleedin' heart old coot. Guess now I have to actually consider it." She rolled the lollipop in her mouth, smirking a bit at Jiro happily humming while enjoying the lollipop she gave him. "Nah, thanks, I'm good. Sweet and hearty don' mix well, and now my mouth's fulla sugar goop." She heaved a deep sigh, and kept watching the tracks. It was Jiro who noticed the Ogre gang returning. "A-a-a-ah! R-r-r-ryuko-chan! Th-th-the Goblimon are back!" She turned in the direction he was pointing. "Eh? Well, whaddya know, they are back. And they brought a sad excuse for an Oni with 'em. We gonna teach them another lesson, big boy?" The last question was directed at Ryouta.

"Your teacher eh?" Ryouta asked "Can't be a coincidence. That's what many martial artists often says too anyway. At least, my teacher in karate said that."
However, while Ryuko was honestly seem raring to go, Ryouta was wary. No, they cannot fight this thing. Definitely can't. While it's sleeping, there's a chance that they can win if they can knock it out, but... as expected, the baseball bat won't do at all. If anything, it'll break. Ryouta... somehow instinctively know this. He shook his head at Ryuko's question.
"...No, this one is seriously beyond our league. We'll die." The grimness in his voice is absolute. When the Shamamon noticed this, he started to laugh haughtily.
"WELL! I see that the dogs that barked so loudly just now finally found their fear! It's too late however! You shouldn't have crossed us, the Goblinworks! With that being said, BOSS! GIVE THEM THE BONE PUNISHMENT!"
...A low snore was what answered him. The Ogremon did not move at all. If anything, it just continue its napping.
"...A-ahem..." the Shamamon cleared his throat. "BOSS, THESE PEOPLE INSULTED OUR GOBLINWORKS GANG! WE NEED TO GIVE THEM THE PROPER PUNISHMENT!!"
...More snoring from the Ogremon, and almost insultingly, it only become louder from that.
"...DAMMIT, GUESS WE'LL HAVE TO DEAL THIS OUR OWN!! ATTACK THEM!! HEY, YOU, KEEP WAKING OUR BOSS UP! WE'LL HOLD THEM BACK!!" the Shamamon barked to nearby Goblimon who saluted and start shaking the Ogremon in hope that he'll wake up.
That's still better than fighting against the guy. Street Brawl for the second time. The area is wider, now that he think of it, which made it a bit hard for him to do crowd control. But at the very least, there's a lot of items that can be used here! Ryouta grabbed a metal pipe and used it as a makeshift weapon.

Otohime rolled the lollipop about in her mouth. "My teach would only teach me how tha fight if I learn how to woodcarve and carpent from him first. He's a weirdo."
She looked at Ryouta when told they could not take on the big guy. "Eh? Why not?" Jiro had the answer prepared. "H-h-h-h-he's at Champion level! That's stronger than the Rookie Goblins! H-h-h-humans stand no chance against them!" "That so?" She turned to the goblins. "Typical for scum like you to hide behind someone stronger. Got no balls in those loincloth, eh?" She chuckled, both at her own comment and the inability of the Goblimon to wake their boss up. "Well, if you wanna have another go, lemme lay on the hurt again!" She brought forth her trusty bat once more, and told Jiro to watch out, things might get messy!
