Ougi 48: It’s Gunkan

91.
Bo-bobo & Gunkan: HANAGE SHINKEN
Fodder: GYAAAAAAAAAA!!!!
Gunkan: Exhausted? You’re sloppy, Bo-bobo.
Caption: Gunkan: Age 7; Bo-bobo: Age 7

92.
“Master”: The two of you have done well.
Gunkan: MASTER!!!
“Master”: You’ve done well in overcoming your final trial: “The Five-Hundred Man Brawl”. So, in that case, I will reveal the legitimate heir of Hanage Shinken.
Can: Juice, 3% Fruit Juice
Gunkan: So the time has finally come…The day where I become the 7th heir of Hanage Shinken…My true ability is more powerful than Bo-bobo. And I’ll be rewarded for all my painful training…
“Master”: The 7th heir of Hanage Shinken is…
“Master”: Bo-bobo.
Bo-bobo: FOR REAL~~?
Gunkan: !!
Gunkan: In that moment, my pride was ripped to shreds.
Bo-bobo: FOR REAL~~

93.
Gunkan: I DON’T AGREE!! WHY BO-BOBO!!!!
Gunkan: I SHOULD BE MORE SUITABLE TO BE HEIR.
Bo-bobo: FOR REAL~~
Gunkan: PLEASE TELL ME!!!
Bo-bobo: FOR REAL~~
“Master”: Fu…It’s simple.
Bo-bobo: FOR REAL~~
“Master”: Eh? I’m being drunk?
“Master”: It’s because you’re not from the Hair Kingdom.
“Master”: Those who are not from the Hair Kingdom have no reason to become the heir.
Gunkan: As I always thought…No matter what the effort, no matter how much I push, I’ll never be recognized…I’m not from the Hair Kingdom…Because of that mere thing, no one will recognize me…

94.
Bo-bobo: ……Gunkan…
SFX: Slap
Gunkan: DON’T TOUCH ME.

95.
SFX: Hmph
Gunkan: FUUN!!!!
Gunkan: Gu…gugu…Uwaa~~I’m ruined~~
Gunkan: Gugu…You’ve done well, Bo-bobo. If that’s the case, I’ll show you my ultimate Ougi.

96.
Bo-bobo: WHAT!!! YOUR ULTIMATE OUGI!!!?
Gunkan: TAKE THIS!!! GARYUU HANAGE SHINKEN CHOU-OUGI: ARMAGEDDON!!!!!
(Translator Note: Chou = Huge/Ultimate. Furthermore, Gunkan’s technique is called “Harmageddon”, but since that’s pretty much a Japanese pronounciation of “Armageddon”, I’m keeping it the English one)
Gunkan: Ah, hello. This is Gunkan. I said I am Gunkan. There’s a man I want to defeat but…Eeh…OK…you’ll be right there…
Beauty: THAT’S NOT A TECHNIQUE--!!!!!
Narrator: Ten minutes later

99.
SFX: Chon
Don Patch: NEW YEARS.
(Translator’s Note: Don Patch put the orange on top of Bo-bobo’s head in order to create a formation for “komachi mochi”, which is made of two mochi cakes and a daidai orange on top of it and usually seen on New Years)
Gunkan: GUBA!!!!
Man: THAT WAS A TECHNIQUE TOO!!?
Beauty: Sanmai-san?
Bo-bobo: ALRIGHT! IN THAT CASE, I’LL FUSE WITH DON PATCH!!!
Don Patch: “BO-BOBO FUSION”-WAN!

Gunkan: TORYA!!!!
Don Patch: GUBA!!!!
Don Patch: I ate a direct hit.
Bo-bobo: How on earth did he get behind me…? I really couldn’t see it…HA!!!
Bo-bobo: AN ABACUS!!!!

101.
Bo-bobo: So that’s how he became so fast!!!!
Gunkan: Currently I’m six-times faster.
Gunkan: By the way, Bo-bobo, you’re not the only one who can use “Bo-bobo Fusion”.
Bo-bobo: A…KNIFE!!!
Gunkan: HA HA HA, I’VE FUSED WITH THIS KNIFE. NO ONE WILL BE ABLE TO STOP ME------!!!!

Beauty: A TOUCHING BEING HURTS--!!!!
“Hearts”: ……Should I turn back?
Bo-bobo: It’s fine.

103.
Gunkan: Dangerous, its dangerous. What the heck was I thinking…
Beauty: Me too.

105.
Bo-bobo: HANAGE SHINKEN CHOU-CHOU-CHOU-OUGI: BO-BOBO ARMOR!!!!!
Bo-bobo: HAAAAAAAA
Box: Aomori Oranges
Bo-bobo: IT’S OVER, GUNKAN.

Ougi 49: It’s Bo-bobo

108.
Bo-bobo: HERE WE GO
Gunkan: KUBA!!!!
Gunkan: Ku…
Gunkan: YOU’RE UNDERESTIMATING ME!!!!
Bo-bobo: That won’t break it.

109.
Gunkan: AOMORI ORANGES~~!!!!
Gunkan: AOMORI ORANGE~~S!

110-111
(These two pages are silent battle both in real life and in Gunkan’s imagination. There’s nothing to translate really)
(Translator’s Note: OK, a bit of explanation now, particularly on the scene regarding the oranges and the apples. In actuality, Aomori is known for its apple production, particularly for the creation of the Fuji Apple. Thus, having Gunkan getting beaten up by the apple girl is appropriate, particularly since he chose the oranges over the apples.)

112.
Don Patch: I WAS DON PATCH!
Everyone: OF COURSE YOU WERE---!

113.
Don Patch: I’VE DONE IT!! PATCHIMI DID IT!!
Heppokomaru: OK, go home.
Gunkan: Ha…ha…you’re kidding…
Gunkan: I’LL KILL YOU
Bo-bobo: Fine.
Bo-bobo: This is vengeance for Don Patch. You’ll pay for the crime of killing Don Patch.
Gunkan: Ke. If that’s the expense for killing Don Patch, then you shouldn’t complain.
Heppokomaru: Good luck, Bo-bobo-san!!!
Tennosuke: Avenge Don Patch!!!!

114.
Don Patch: WHY THEN? IS THIS NEW BULLYING?
Don Patch: Ma, actually anything is fine.
Beauty: You’d win in an appeal.
Bo-bobo: Gunkan. This is the end.
Bo-bobo: HANAGE SHINKEN SAISHUU OUGI: NOSEHAIR ALLEY!!!!!
Gunkan: !!!

115.
Gunkan: This technique…it’s the only technique I haven’t mastered.
Gunkan: UOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!
Gunkan: I wanted to be recognized…

116.
Bo-bobo: S**t. Those Hair Hunters. At this rate, the Hair Kingdom…
Gunkan: It’s better destroyed, this country………
Bo-bobo: What are you saying?
Gunkan: A country that doesn’t recognize me is better off destroyed.

117.
Gunkan: NO
Gunkan: I control this world. All people recognize who I am.
Gunkan: NO. WORLD CONQUEST DOESN’T MATTER…
Gunkan: IN REALITY…IN REALITY…
Gunkan: BO-BOBO, I WANTED YOU TO RECOGNIZE ME.

118.
Gunkan: !!
Gunkan: What happened? Why did you stop your attack?
Bo-bobo: I’m done. The battle is over.
Gunkan: !!
Gunkan: Stop kidding. This battle still isn’t over--!!!
Bo-bobo: Gunkan, you’re an idiot.
Bo-bobo: You’re an idiotic, foolish amoeba with a weird beard.
Gunkan: BO-BOBO, YOU!
Bo-bobo: But you’re efforted.

119.
Bo-bobo: In order for a person to be recognized, a person has to show the effort many times a normal person…however, an ugly person like you can only get recognized by people through the control of “power”.
Bo-bobo: Thus, people increasingly leave you. That’s the natural result.
Gunkan: SHUT UP. SHUT UP.
Bo-bobo: However, even if people don’t like you, even if you can’t get recognized.
Bo-bobo: YOU’RE MY BEST FRIEND.
Gunkan: BO-BOBO.
SFX: Poroporo
Bo-bobo: You’ve gotten strong, GUNKAN.
Gunkan: BO-BOBO!!
Bo-bobo: GUNKAN

120.
Bo-bobo: STOP BEING NICE--!!!!!
Gunkan: GYAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

121.
Bo-bobo: WE…
Bo-bobo: WE…
Bo-bobo: CAN’T BE NICE TO EACH OTHER-----!!!!
Caption: Gunkan Arc: End

(Translator's Note: Wow! What an ending! I almost teared up during that last part where Bo-bobo and Gunkan finally recognized each other...and Bo-bobo crushed Gunkan for being so nice! Originally I was planning on just putting this up one chapter at a time, but considering the final chapter of the arc had so many blank pages, I really decided to make this a double release. I'm extremely happy that any of you reading this have been able to make their way through the insanity of the Gunkan arc. Personally I wished he appeared a bit more after this...but unfortunately, you really can't have two nosehair fighters on the same team at the same time. So with this arc done, what's next? Well...next time we are going to meet our next crucial character...but to tell the truth, the next few chapters are not going to be as exciting as Gunkan was. While there are some funny bits coming up, I'm more sort of trying to hold on to the part that comes up a bit later and flows right into the greatness to come. But since I really don't want to skip around...we move on to the next chapter next time with...that key guy.)
