Get That Family Jewel Back

Having carried the unconscious Momo to the stage platform, Okarun sprints back to where Rokuro and Vega still trade blows with Umbrella Boy Unji. His sluggish pace makes him realize how heavily he leaned on Turbo Granny, and he puzzles over how to reclaim his kintama. The answer arrives once he asks himself what Momo might try. With Vega out of ammunition, Rokuro grumbles about how impossible Unji is while he hovers and spews shockwaves, then meets Okarun, who asks the nanoskin to form a rocket.

Unable to manage that, Rokuro improvises a jetpack that quits in midair, to Okarun's letdown. He tells Okarun there is no approaching Unji while the air shrouds him, which Vega likens to a typhoon. That image sparks Okarun's plan, and he has Rokuro build a heater. Warmed by the running pair's body heat, the device lifts the heated surface air all at once into the gust Unji generates, dragging him into a tornado exactly as Okarun intended. Knocked back to the ground, Unji faces all three in close quarters, yet they steadily lose footing. His final shockwave aims straight at Okarun, who is pinned under the umbrella, but after wresting the kintama free, Okarun slips into his Turbo Granny form just in time to escape, leaving Unji to demand who he is and where such power comes from.

Okarun first hauls Momo clear of danger, then rejoins the fight. The duel continues with Vega, Rokuro Serpo, and Okarun set against the Fairy-Tale Card's Umbrella Boy. Rokuro's attempt to chase him down with a nanoskin jetpack collapses. He instead rigs a heater driven by the body heat of Okarun and Vega, spawning a tornado. Once Umbrella Boy crashes down, the trio swarms him. Okarun narrowly reclaims the kintama and transforms to evade the final blast.

This Volume 18 chapter highlights Okarun's growth as a tactician, beating an airborne foe through physics rather than brute force. Reclaiming the kintama restores his transformed speed and swings the Danmara Arc duel back his way.
