Waaaaahhhh! Ugh, hold on. I should do a different cry next time, I'm getting rather tired of this one...
Hey, is he alright?
No need to worry, he'll be back in a minute.
Okay... is he like... a person? I've never heard of anyone like him before.
No idea, the High Priest only told me he's lived here for a very long time.
Alright then. What else can we say...
Phew, he's really something...
Gavial, your head is bleeding. Are you okay?
It's fine, just a scratch. Tomimi, bring me my medical bag here.
Hm? Where did Tomimi go?
Here's your bag. And Tomimi, I think I saw her running off somewhere right before we won the fight.
Thanks. She didn't get scared, did she? Anyway, let's patch ourselves up first.
You go check if anyone's injured, and bring them to me if they are. I'll take care of them.
Leave it to me!
Haha, no problem.
Ugh, what a pain. Fine.
Quit yer belly-achin'.
Doctor... hmm?
The Big Ugly...
Sorry, Zumama. We had to take it apart.
I know.
I checked your engine, I think it's working fine. You can have it back.
Oh yeah? That's great!
You really won't stay, Gavial?
Yeah, just like you, I've found my calling.
To be a doctor?
That's it.
Is doctoring fun?
Is building machines fun?
It is.
Same here.
But you still have to be the Great Chief.
Huh?
Any way you slice it, you beat the Big, Ugly Thing. You won, Gavial.
Look, everyone's here again. They're looking to you.
Tch. Doctor, what do we do?
Your call.
You're not giving me anything here!
......
Doctor, I know you're awake! I'm a doctor!
All hail Great Chief Gavial!
Tch. Doctor, I really want to punch you right now.
Gavial, are you hurt?!
Hm? I'm fine. Where did you run off to?
Huh? Oh, that... I had to go pee!
Okay... Hm?
What's wrong, Gavial? Why are you looking at me like that?
Hm... Haha, I've got it!
Everyone, listen up!
I beat the Big Ugly, so I'm going to be the Great Chief.
And so, my message to you is——
Your fists are everything!
Eh? Gavial, are you staying here to be the Great Chief?
But!
I have something very important I must do, so I have to leave.
Worry not, though! When I'm gone, Tomimi will give orders on my behalf!
Just treat Tomimi as you would treat me!
Eh, w-w-what?
Is that really gonna fly? Don't these people worship strength over everything?
Gavial is the Great Chief after all. She defeated everyone, so her word is law.
Haha. Zumama, machines are pretty cool, but I think I'll stick with my fists after all.
Hmph. Don't forget, I still don't recognize you. I'll build an even greater machine and challenge you again.
Sure, I'll be waiting.
Oh, right. Before that, you need to come with me for a bit.
Why?
You need to come with me to Rhodes Island to get an Oripathy checkup.
Can I refuse? I still have to work on the Big Ugly...
You don't have a choice this time. Besides, until Tomimi takes over, I'm still the Great Chief. I'll bring you back even if I have to kidnap you.
Fine.
...Gavial, are you going to leave after all?
Yep, I'll probably be leaving right as soon as we get the engine back in the aircraft.
......
No.
Hm?
I-I won't let you leave!
