Chapter 1

Season: Yumenosaki Era, Summer

Location: Pirates Stage

Aaalright, looks like UNDEAD is all ready to go!

We have to hand over the stage to them, so it’s time we switch places! We’re withdrawing, you guys!

Understood, Taichou-dono! The art of escape is a fundamental skill for ninjas~♪

…Urp. I performed a lot of rope work, so I feel a little seasick! My eyes are spinning~!

Your brain’s all shaken up, I’m guessin’. That happens to me when I get struck on my chin. I’ll lend ya my shoulder, so how ‘bout we head out together~?

Ahh, I think it’d be quicker if I just carried him… Up we go~♪

Wawa—! Don’t carry me under your arm, Midori-kun! It’s so embarrassing, as if I’m a little child! This is humiliating~!

kaoru~♪ (waves)

Ohh, Kanata-kun, great work on your side~♪

fufu. please do your best out there, i am [cheering] for you~♪

Thanks. But also, we’re gonna have a live showdown in the third part, so are you sure it’s fine to cheer us on~?

i [dislike] competing~ or rather, i am just not [interested]. i am [satisfied] enough if everyone is [smiling]…♪

Huh… Well, I guess that’s how it’d be for you. But sorry to say this, I’m not holding back, okay~?

i see~ ehehe, then [please] go easy on me…♪ (sways left and right)

Right back at you. I don’t really wanna exhaust myself~ But I don’t wanna lose, either. So the best case scenario is that you guys hold back~♪

But, well, lots of girls in swimsuits are watching today, so I’ll give it my all in my own style~ Sorry, but I’m not letting anyone else stand out! ♪

Alright now, it’s time for the second part of Pirate Festival: “Pirates”!

The pirates are us, UNDEAD~ Give us a huge round of applause and lots of cheers as the main leads, okay? ♪

Girls only, of course~♪

UGAAAAAAAHH!!

Woah, Koga-kun, you’re so loud~ Don’t bark so much, okay? You’ll drown out all the girls’ squeals.

SHUT UUUUP!! I’ll friggin’ kill you! Why the hell are we locked up in a cell!? You better not start hoggin’ the damn spotlight, y’hear me~!?

I was so excited to get the show started, dammit! Get me the hell outta here!

I wanna sing already! I had to hold it in all this time and now I get treated like this!? Quit freakin’ messin’ with meeee!!

Hakaze-senpai. I also think this is a little too much. Oogami was really looking forward to singing.

And the iron cell bars are hot, so touching them could burn us.

Ahaha, Doggie doesn’t know how to “stay”, huh~ Be a good little boy, won’t you? I’ll give you a beef jerky later~♪

GUAAH! I’ll friggin’ kill you, damn playboy! You’re also someone who’s always pissed me off! Get me outta here! Get me out, god frickin’ dammit!

UGAAAAHH! You’re gonna pay for this! I’ll make you one with the sea along with that Vampire Bastard!

Hm, speaking of which… I still haven’t seen Sakuma-senpai anywhere; is he not participating in this live show?

Ahh, did I not mention this? Basically, Sakuma-san’s weak to sunlight, right? He’d just collapse if he performs under the direct sunlight, so…

For this live show, he’s benchwarming, I guess you could say…?.

He has a separate role to do~ Well, just look forward to it, m’kay? Like obedient little kids~♪

Good boy, good boy~…

Woah—!? That was close… Don’t try to bite me! You’re not trained at all, are you~?

GARRRR!! I’ll put ya to your death! I’ll make sure to kill ya even after you’re dead~!

Quit it already~ Sakuma-san’s benchwarming, so it’s on me now to lead Pirate Festival as a substitute.

That’s why I’m the captain of all you pirates~♪

Going against the captain of the ship will have you thrown into the sea, ‘kay~?

Ahhn, you’re the captain!? As if I’ll accept that!

UNDEAD ain’t some cozy ‘n chummy place like Ryuseitai, aight!? We abide by the law of the jungle where the strong eat the weak meat!

Meat? Are we talking about meat?

Zip it, Adonis! It’ll only complicate things!

Hey, Hakaze…senpai, you asshole!

By lockin’ us in here, you’re hopin’ to get all the spotlight and have all the swimsuit girls squeal at you, aren’t ya!?

Is that all ya can ever think about!? You perpetually-in-heat bastard!

Messin’ with people of your own flock puts you even lower than a dog! I’ll never forgive ya!

Did that Vampire Bastard ever approve of this!?

So loud… Look, I’m sorry for this, but stop talking in human language, ‘kay?

This scene’s meant to be where I, the mighty party, just captured the “Fierce Beast, Koga-kun” and “Rare Beast, Adonis-kun” from a mysterious island~♪

You’re just makin’ up anythin’ for us, arent’cha!? You’re really pissin’ me off…! I’ll make you pay for this…!

(Mmh~… I stayed quiet as I couldn’t fully grasp what’s happening, but I have a feeling this is going down a bad path.)

(No matter how sturdy this ship is, it will get overturned at this rate.)

(After seeing Ryuseitai’s live show full of solidarity, us being at odds is—… No, our freewheeling manner itself is too transparent.)

(Showing such a disgraceful sight would only confuse the audience. Our reputation as UNDEAD would decline… is what I conclude.)

(We’re only able to participate in this Pirate Festival after asking for a massive favor, as this was meant to be only Ryuseitai’s live show at first.)

(We can’t cause trouble to Anzu and Ryuseitai.)

(The live show has already begun, and we’ll only give a bad impression by yelling and fighting onstage…)

(If Sakuma-senpai was here, he would have administered both Oogami and Hakaze-senpai…)

(But he doesn’t seem to be here. There’s no choice now, I should put some effort to break through this situation.)

(I’m not very good at taking action, but it’s a bad trait of mine to be overly passive,)

(Oogami was extremely excited for the Pirate Festival, his eyes sparkling by the thought…)

(It’s likely impossible for us to get along in peace like Ryuseitai. I have no choice but to do this through UNDEAD’s style.)

(You said “the strong eat the weak meat,” didn’t you, Oogami? I think so, too. That’s what UNDEAD is all about.)
