Kai POV

We traveled through the pretty much just plainsland, I encountered something that Nia called the Territorial Rotbart. I hated it, just the way it looked was traumatizing. I might have nightmares later. But after a while we came upon what looked like a workshop on the coast.

Tora: Hellooo! Umon! Umon?Where is Umon?

Umon: Who is that? Who is noisy while I do my work?

Kai: Another Puffball?!

Pyra punched my arm. Luckily the two poofers didn't seem to notice or care.

Umon: Tora! This big surprise!

Tora: Long time no see, Unclepon!

Umon: Yes! Long time! About one whole year?

Tora: Yes, about that!

Umon: You became very big in one year, Tora!

Tora: Yes, Tora not littlepon anymore.

Umon: And Tora have lots of sidekicks!

Tora: Rex-Rex and friends are not Tora's sidekicks! They are real friends, Umon!

Tora turned to Rex.

Tora: Rex-Rex! Meet Unclepon Umon! He did great research with Grampypon! He is great builder of ships!

Rex: Hello!

Pyra: Greetings.

Pyra punched my arm again.

Kai: Oh, hi.

Dromarch: At your service.

Umon: I see! Tora's friends! Tora has lots of friends. Very good!
Tora has become fine biggipon.

Tora: Hehehe!

Umon: Well, Tora. Did you need Umon's help for something?

Tora: Well, we wanted to borrow a ship. From Unclepon Umon!

Umon: A ship? But there are lots of ships in Torigoth! Why hike all the way to bum-bum to see me?

Tora: Oh...erm...well...

Umon: Tora run out of gold, hmmm?

Tora: Umh... Yes! Tora spend all the gold on artificial Blade!
Tora flat broke, like penniless pancake. I wanted to go on a little boaty-jaunt to, ah... nearby place. But no money to go on boat!

Kai: I feel you Tora, my pockets are as empty as can be.

Nia: *quietly* Hmmph. I hope Tora can keep track of all of these fibs he's telling...

Rex: *quietly* There's no other option. We can hardly tell him what happened in Torigoth, can we?

Nia: *quietly* Yeah, I guess you're right...

Rex: *quietly* So long as we get a boat out of this...

Umon: Artificial Blade, eh? Was this what Tora's Grampypon was working on?

Poppi stepped forward.

Poppi: My name is Poppi. Pleased to meet Unclepon.

Umon: Yes! This it! This pretty mighty! Tora take after Grampypon indeed! Oooh, well... How can I refuse Tora now? Tora may use Umon's ship but there is problem.

Tora: Wh-what is problem?

Umon: You see, ship not quite ready just yet. Not much left to do! But work stop, because no building parts.

Rex: That's the only problem?

Umon: Correct! But that is big problem. Big like sea or mountain.

Rex: You mean, all you need is some parts, then you can finish the ship?
