“Ahhh!! At this rate, even the best cheese in the world is going to taste awful!”
Charr said this while staring at the completely frozen block of cheese in his arms.
At the same time, the headless knight riding a skeletal warhorse was still chasing him!
The headless knight swung a whip assembled from bones, keeping close behind him. It looked ready to smack him upside the head at any moment!
“Even if it tastes awful, it’s still mine! I only brought it out to share! I never said anyone could have the first bite!”
The headless Bunny shouted this, but Charr wasn’t moved at all!
“Never heard of ‘the capable go first’?! The capable go first! Whoever has the ability gets the first bite! That’s Bunny truth!”
“You said it yourself!”
A mecha Bunny came diving down from above!
The instant it began its dive, it launched a massive barrage of missiles!
Charr was so frightened that every strand of his long fur stood on end. His long ears shot upright, and he leaped off the little bear’s back.
In midair, he unleashed a spinning slash, firing a blade of air that carved a path through the missile barrage!
“Come on, Little Bear! Let’s break through this wall of fire together!”
Charr shouted as he landed on the little bear’s back. He grabbed the bear by the neck.
The moment the mighty strength of a Titan erupted from his body, he actually pulled the bear straight up from the ground!
With a backflip, he hurled it forward!
That’s right. Without letting his feet touch the ground, he lifted the bear and threw it toward the exploding missiles.
The little bear was clearly used to this. It curled up, covering its head with both paws like a ball of meat, and slammed straight into the fiery sparks of the exploding missiles!
Then—
BANG!
It collided head-on with the mecha Bunny!
“Whoa! I thought you were different from Charr!”
The mecha Bunny complained as it was sent flying.
But the moment Charr lost his mount, the headless Bunny caught up with him.
The headless Bunny lashed out with its long bone whip, instantly spinning Charr around like a top!
The frozen cheese flew out of his hands.
At that moment, another Bunny who could fly caught the cheese in midair without hesitation!
It was the dragon Bunny Ailo!
He let out a smug laugh.
“Heh heh! I forgot I could fly! Now I’ll take this home and share it with my wife—”
“No public displays of affection!”
A transformed Bunny in armor suddenly appeared in midair and planted a solid kick into the dragon Bunny’s face!
“Gyaa!”
The dragon Bunny let out a strange cry and was kicked away.
At the instant he was sent flying, Suge completed her transformation. She flipped through the air, caught the cheese with one hand, then flung a card backward with the other.
The card struck the dragon Bunny.
It flashed against his body, instantly absorbing part of his power before flying back into Suge’s hand.
“Heh heh… I got the Super Warrior Bunny card!”
Suge landed and spoke with great pride.
The other Bunnies closed in around her.
She held up the Dragon Bunny card. The dragon head printed on it opened its mouth and roared.
Then she inserted it into her belt and pushed both hands outward.
The mechanical parts on the belt began to turn, producing an incredibly strange sound.
It sounded like a dragon growling low in its throat.
Then came a fierce pounding rhythm.
And then—
【D! R! A! G! O! N—】
“Transform! Super Warrior Dragon Bunny!”
【Dragon!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!】
Roar!
The belt released a dragon’s roar.
Next, the ears on the Bunny helmet—looking just like something from a certain masked rider series—folded down and spread outward.
They formed a pair of dragon horns.
A pair of mechanical dragon wings suddenly unfolded from her back. With one powerful flap, they unleashed a violent gale!
“Whoa! It’s Dragon Bunny! He’s possessed the body of some unknown Bunny!”
The Bunnies were surprised, but not frightened in the slightest.
They charged once again!
The first to appear was naturally the courageous Black Dog Squad.
They surged forward together, raised their firearms, and unleashed a storm of bullets!
The modified Bunny, Suge, snorted and raised her wings in front of herself like a shield.
She took the incoming bullets head-on!
“Dragon Force Assault!”
With a buzzing sound, the wings that had endured the barrage of bullets suddenly shook hard.
A violent gale erupted.
Within it shimmered the light of dragon factors.
When that light collided with the bullets, not a single one could break through!
It was as if a solid barrier existed within the wind, blocking every bullet!
Then Suge charged forward.
Her body twisted, and her wings spun like the blades of a fan.
She crashed forward while spinning!
“Look! Bunny bowling!”
Some Bunny raised a paw and pointed at the Black Dog Squad members tumbling through the air.
After Dragon Warrior Suge knocked away the whole group of Black Dog Bunnies, she spread her wings and both arms.
Then—
Clatter!
The mechanical dragon wings on her body vanished.
The armor covering her in dragon-scale form gradually returned to normal.
Suge’s expression changed drastically.
She touched her breastplate with one hand.
“Whoa! My dragon power! Where did it go?!”
“Heh heh! Your cheese doesn’t have any power either!”
Only then did she realize that, when she had used the Dragon-Light Poison Dragon Drill, she hadn’t taken the cheese with her at all!
At that moment, a Bunny wearing a helmet with deer antlers slid across the ground and scooped up the cheese.
He immediately fired a shotgun at Suge’s back!
The shells were rubber bullets, but they still hurt badly when they hit a Bunny.
Armor didn’t make it any less painful!
“Whoa! Raul! You security guard! You’re a damn thief!”
Suge complained as she tumbled away with a cry.
That Bunny in the antlered helmet was Raul, from the Bunny First Industrial Base.
He wasn’t supposed to leave his post.
But now, he was sliding across the dirt with a shotgun in hand and the cheese held tightly in his arms.
He was going to take it back immediately.
He would eat the first bite himself, then give the rest to the kids at the Bunny school.
Raul was overjoyed!
Just as he was thinking this—
“That doesn’t count as stealing! How can you call anything a Bunny does stealing?!”
A foot stepped directly onto his breastplate.
Raul reacted instinctively and fired his shotgun at the Bunny standing on his chest.
But that Bunny tensed his entire body and took the rubber bullets head-on with his bulging muscles!
“Whoa! You muscle-brained holy man! You’re throwing away Bunny’s greatest advantage!”
“Hmph! These powerful muscles are the foundation of my faith in the gods!”
The Bunny standing on Raul’s chest said this as he raised both paws and clenched them into fists.
His muscles bulged.
A massive amount of blood mist sprayed from them.
Any Bunny who knew him would never mistake it for his own blood.
This Bunny was a famous Paladin Bunny.
His name was Pierre.
His hobby was making specimens.
That’s right—making specimens!
And after gutting his prey, he absolutely had to crawl inside its belly and experience it for himself!
“Whoa! You’re a pervert!”
“Hmph! I’m extremely proud of my perversion!”
The two Bunnies began fighting on the spot.
They were instantly swallowed up by the other Bunnies.
At that moment, Suge, who had been blasted away by the shotgun, came tumbling back.
With a boom, another Bunny flew over and crashed onto the path ahead of her.
“Huh?”
Suge lifted her head.
The Bunny rolling in front of her was a long-haired northern Bunny.
And this northern Bunny looked incredibly powerful.
“Let’s see what you’ve got!”
She pulled out a card and pressed it directly against the northern Bunny’s back.
Just like the Dragon Bunny before him, the northern Bunny’s body began to twitch as if he were having a seizure.
A flash of light gathered toward the card.
The card on the Dragon Bunny’s body flashed.
A symbol of a clenched fist appeared on its surface!
“Titan?! It’s Titan?!”
Suge gave a sly laugh.
She stood up, picked up the card, and spoke to Charr, who was still twitching on the ground.
“Senior Titan, please lend me your strength for a while!”
She raised the card in her hand.
The next moment, a passionate trumpet blared from within it!
The rhythm sounded as if it were announcing the birth of something miraculous!
She inserted it into the belt.
The belt released a deep, powerful chant.
It was different from the Dragon chant.
The Dragon chant was simple and direct.
After all, a dragon was simply a dragon.
But Titan was different.
Titan possessed greater diversity—and more of its own ideas.
So its chant went like this:
【In the Northlands! On the Eastern Shore! In the Western Forests! Across the Southern Seas! I think, therefore I am! I think, therefore I sleep—】
An unexpectedly rap-like chant!
Then—
Click!
The belt rotated.
【Titan’s power! Receive its blessing!】
Buzz!
Suge Bunny’s body instantly became massive and sturdy.
Her arms and legs grew thicker than those of an ordinary Bunny by an entire size!
“Oh?! Titan power! I’ll challenge it!”
The huge-headed Bunny Aipo charged straight at her and thrust out both fists.
The transformed Titan-form Bunny Suge snorted.
She raised fists so thick they looked capable of firing rocket punches.
Then she punched the Bunny in front of her, who was even larger than she was, with both fists!
BOOM!
The shockwave sent countless Bunnies flying!
“Whoa! It’s a giant monster showdown!”
The Bunnies weren’t angry at all.
Instead, they clapped excitedly as they watched the two enormous figures exchange punches.
One was a gigantic blue-furred Bunny with a white belly.
The other was a mechanical Bunny covered in armor, with fists as thick as a gorilla’s.
“…I feel like I’ve seen this scene among the things Mr. Rip brought back.”
Yethir lay at the edge of the battlefield, watching the two giants struggle against each other.
