Kohaku: -Well done, Madara-han.
I was able ta move about freely thanks to ya drawin’ the enemy’s attention with those exaggerated gestures of yers. I snuck into the helicopter and fiddled with it so it can’t fly no more.
I also disabled a~ll of the bombs that were set up in there. My folks really drilled into me information about how ta disarm explosives while I was growin’ up, ya see.
Well then, what’s yer next move? I’ll refer ta ya as GFK II. Ya have lost all yer advantages against us, and yer left with no means of escapin’.
Plus. Madara-han firmly secured J, who was yer biggest trump card against us.
No, more like we had ta fabricate this exact situation in order ta be able ta deal with ya and save J at the same time.
We pretended ta follow all of yer orders while waitin’ patiently fer this moment.

Now, this is check mate.
Yer pretty cunnin’, but it seems yer bad at doin’ evil deeds.
The heavens are watchin’. A villain who kidnaps children an’ scares ‘em this badly is due ta receive correspondin’ amounts of divine punishment.
Cause and effect-

Madara: -And karmic retribution!
Kohaku: “♪~♪~♪”
Madara: “~...♪”
“Hahaha! Sorry, sorry, seems I got my legs all twisted up with yours and caused you to fall over, GFK II! It’s the kind of accident that happens every once in a while on an idol stage!”
“When you get too absorbed in dancing, you sometimes end up bumping into someone who happened to be nearby!”
“What an unbelievably unfortunate accident that the momentum from your fall was enough to make you tumble straight off this rooftop-”
Kohaku: “Stay calm! I’ll save ya right now, GFK II! Here ya go, grab onto this long power cord!”
Madara: “Ooops, another unfortunate accident! The power cord got tangled up in your legs and now you’re hanging from it in the air!”
Kohaku: “Don’t ya move even an inch now, GFK II! If the cord gets untangled, ya’ll be fallin’ headfirst straight into the ground! Ya’ll become as flat as a pancake!”
Madara: “We’ll save you right away! Alright, don’t move, don’t move! Or maybe you don’t want our help?”
Kohaku: “Hey, hey! Ya should cry ‘n beg for our help!”
Madara: “Ah, how I feel for him! But rest assured, even if you get so scared that you piss your pants, your honor will remain intact!”
Kohaku: “This footage got way too shockin’ all of a sudden fer us to broadcast it on national television, after all!”
“Even if this show is an insane parentin’ program that doesn’t give a shit about broadcastin’ ethics!”
Madara: “This accident will become buried in darkness, never to be seen by the innocent public!”
Kohaku: “So don’t worry and go ahead and shout! Ya should be relieved that we’re such upstandin’ idols! We always strive ta give the viewers the best experience possible, ya see!”
“This kind of awful accident-”
Madara: “This kind of unbearable tragedy!”
Kohaku: “This shockingly terrifying video is not somethin’ we’d ever want the public ta experience!”
Madara: “However! You can’t stop people from gossiping! I’m sure that word of the horrors you’re experiencing right now will suddenly spread throughout the underworld that you are a part of!”
“Secretly, but surely, from one villain to the next!”
“Enough so that everyone who hears about it will want to avoid meeting with the same misfortune as this episode’s guest - GFK II - did!”
Kohaku: “Enough that they’ll all know better than ta try and imitate what GFK II did!”
Madara: “Over and over! Let’s keep this horror show that only we know about going a little longer!”
Kohaku: “Over and over and over again! We’ll keep at it until ya never want ta do anythin’ this stupid ever again!”
“If ya get it, give us yer reply! Ya poor, unfortunate victim who was unlucky enough ta get caught in this unforeseeable accident!”
Madara: “No one even invited you to take part in our show! Your first mistake was that you forced your way into appearing on this fun and peaceful parenting program!”
Kohaku: “♪~♪~♪”
Madara: “~...♪”

Tsukasa: Wow.
Th, things are taking a turn for the outrageous over there… What is this, some scenery out of hell?
Right, yes. You are watching the video on your end as well, right, Saegusa-senpai? It seems like Double Face splendidly managed to punish the bad guy.
Once this fact spreads, no one should dare to try and imitate the crimes this case’s culprit - GFK II - committed.
Of course, when this episode is broadcast, it will be edited to remove the scary parts, and it will be turned into a peaceful episode for the public to enjoy.
No. Actually, this entire episode will likely never be broadcast.
However. To be suspended from the roof of a luxury hotel and to have his life threatened like this…
The horror this criminal is experiencing will become known to the underworld through rumors going from mouth to mouth, darkness to darkness. And thus, anyone planning similar crimes will have to rethink their plans.
Having said that. Any more than this would be going too far, so I will hurry over to the scene to restrain them.
Even if the enemy is a horrible criminal, and even if we are doing this to save a child-
Any further punishment will lead to resentment festering, creating further violence and tragedy.
(Oukawa. Do you really understand this fact?)
(Of course, I intend to continue being your ally, no matter how much blood you are stained by.)
(Karmic retribution, cause and effect. For villains who would hurt others, a suitable punishment is surely waiting. Sinful humans will go to hell, and be impaled on piles of needles.)
(I, and your fellow members of the Oukawa family, did not wish your you to go down that path, however.)
…
…Nn?
Ah, yes. I’m sorry, I’m still watching the footage coming in from the scene.
As I’m watching it, I can’t help but feel like there is something wrong, though I can’t explain what-
…!? This is! Did you notice, Saegusa-senpai!?
Yes! I thought something was strange, and now I notice J-san has been nowhere to see for a while! Double Face are too caught up in their punishment against GFK II to notice!
I have a bad feeling about this! I have to hurry on over to the scene and inform those two about this!
…
….Eh?
D, did you see that, Saegusa-senpai? My eyes must be deceiving me, surely?
J-san is-
GFK II suddenly jumped up, grabbed ahold of J-san, and jumped off of the roof.
…
…How? Did something go wrong?
How did things come to this? We were supposed to defeat the villain, save the innocent child from his clutches, and everything was supposed to be over with, right?
That was supposed to be the happy ending for this story, right?
And yet, how? How could such a tragedy…?
I, is this our punishment for doing something so evil as to lynch a man?
N, no matter how much I struggle and work hard.
Will I never be able to save that child, Oukawa, from the depths of hell? Is that what this means?
Please tell me, please reply, Saegusa-senpai.
