While the L.T.O. invasion is still going strong in Grava City, back at their base, L.T.O. intruders face their own challenges.
In between time and space where the L.T.O. base is located, the Snachro brothers are currently surrounding the Bearlotic, the guard beast for the base.
"Hey, bros, from the looks of it, this Bearlotic has been groomed for quite a while; if you rush in, he'll tear you apart like a giant razor blade," Satch says in a cautious tone.
"Heh, come on, bro! I grow giant razor blades out of every part of my body for fucks sake! I'm not waiting for shit!" Frax screams.
Frax collides the sharp blades growing out of his hands together and rushes forward, heading toward the Bearlotic.
"You dumbass, he'll clobber you!" Satch yells.
"So sad our brother is a real hothead, isn't he?" Ruth says as he moves to the same spot Frax was just in.
Frax rushes straight toward the beast and tries to stab the Bearlotic, but with one smack from its sharp claws, the blades coming out of Frax's hands break.
"Rahh!"
"You think your tough shit you big bitch? Well, let me show you how I do things!"
Frax dodges another attack from the Bearlotic with the accelerate technique and smoothly maneuvers his way into close quarters with the beast.
"Heh, got you now!" Frax screams with his tongue hanging out.
Frax spins and, with a blade growing out of his left elbow, stabs the Bearlotic in the chest.
"Rahh!" the Bearlotic holars in pain.
"Yeah, how you like that, you big fool," Frax remarks as he twists his blade into the Bearlotic.
"Grahh!"
The Bearlotic swings its long arms and smacks Frax in the face, sending him flying backwards.
"Fuck!" Frax yelps as he spits out blood.
Before Frax can get sent flying too far back, Ruth rushes in and catches him with one hand.
"Ouch, thanks, big guy for th— wait if you were waiting back here; you were waiting for me to get sent flying, weren't you? You big asshole!" Frax shouts with an offended expression.
After Ruth hears Frax's question he turns his head to the left and starts whistling.
"Oh, what's wrong? No "so sad" for that one, huh? Come on, say it! Say you think I'm a weak pussy who can't fight! Say it to my face!" Frax yells while grabbing Ruth by his cheeks.
As the two brothers bicker, the other brother starts his assault on the Bearlotic. Satch starts to run to the blind spot of the Bearlotic with a minigun in hand.
"I can tell this beast is keeping close attention to me even if it's not looking. That strong nose it has must be coming in handy."
Satch starts using the accelerate technique to move around faster while also using the flex technique to get a better grip on his weapon.
"Ok now!"
Satch stops running and aims the minigun at the Bearlotic.
"Rahh!"
Instantly, the Bearlotic turns around and rushes at Satch.
Damn, you fast!" Satch exclaims as he jumps out of the way of the Bearlotics charge.
Satch opens a portal to his pocket dimension under him and falls in. Instantly, Satch opens another portal at the Bearlotic's new blind spot.
"You're fast, but not this fast!"
Satch drops out of the portal and unloads the Mingun on the Bearlotic, leaving many holes in his back.
"Rahh!"
"Has anyone ever told you your breath stinks?" Frax screams as he jumps into support Satch by stabbing the Bearlotic in the left eye with a blade growing out of his left foot.
"Rahh!" the Bearlotic screams in pain.
The Bearlotic grabs Frax by the leg and tosses him to the right. The very next second, Ruth rushes in as well and starts to push the Bearlotic.
"So sad it seems this beast's physical strength is a little much," Ruth says with a struggling expression as the Bearlotic starts pushing back.
"Keep him still, Ruth!" Satch yells as he points the minigun at the beast.
Satch shoots the Bearlotic once again in the chest, but then the beast pushes Ruth off and starts running towards Satch in a blind rage.
"Damn it, the stupid beast is just rushing through the bullets!"
Satch opens up his pocket dimension and throws the minigun inside.
Satch weaves out of the way of an aggressive swing of the Bearlotics arm, and out of his back pocket he pulls out two bombs.
"Don't forget me, dumbass!" Frax yells as he slashes the Bearlotic twice on the back, and at the same time, Ruth punches the Bearlotic in the face.
"Good job, boys! Keep the beast distracted; I'll be back!" Satch says as he throws the bombs in the Bearlotic's face.
Satch jumps into his pocket dimension, leaving his brothers to deal with the Bearlotic.
Inside the pocket dimension, Satch lands on a giant pile of random items.
"Ok, where is that thing? I know I threw it inside this pile," Satch says with a frantic expression.
Satch digs through one of his piles of items and then stumbles upon a book.
"There it is!"
Satch picks up a book called Beast 101, and he instantly starts flipping through it.
"The Bearlotic is a beast known for its raw power and vicious hunger. Oh, for fucks sake! I don't care what it can do; just tell me it's weakness!"
Outside of the pocket dimension, Ruth and Frax are still fighting the Bearlotic.
"Hey, Ruth, stop fucking around and use your weird speed to take this thing down!" Frax says as he dodges another attack from the Bearlotic.
So sad brother Frax is stressing in this important bout," Ruth says with a calm expression.
"Rahh!"
The Bearlotic smacks both of his arms on the ground, causing Frax to get smacked by a random rock coming out of the ground.
At the same time, Ruth gets behind the Bearlotic and punches it in the head.
"Graahh!"
With the accelerate technique, Ruth moves to the front of the beast and hits him with an uppercut that knocks its jaw loose.
"Is that good enough of an opening brother?" Ruth exclaims.
"Who the hell said I need an opening from you?" Frax screams with an aggressive tone.
Frax runs up Ruth's back and grows a giant blade out of his left palm.
"Eat steel, bitch!"
Frax slams the blade onto the beast's head, leaving the middle of its head bleeding, but both brothers quickly realize there's a problem.
"That didn't do shit but give him a little cut!" Frax thinks to himself with a shocked expression.
The Bearlotic grabs Frax and slams him to the ground, fracturing a few of his bones.
"You'll pay for that," Ruth whispers with a serious tone.
Ruth punches the Bearlotic in the stomach with the flex technique, then hits it with a left and right hook combo.
"I hope brother Satch is doing something productive in that pocket dimension. I don't know how long we can hold this vile beast back!" Ruth thinks to himself as he headbutts the Bearlotic, breaking many of its teeth.
As the Bearlotic's head flies back, Ruth grabs its right arm and tries to throw it over his shoulder.
"Damn, this beast still won't budge!" Ruth thinks to himself as he realizes the Bearlotic can't be thrown.
The Bearlotic starts to raise its other hand to grab Ruth, but suddenly the beast gets shot in the face.
"Hey Ruth, get to stepping! I almost missed because you keep moving!"
Ruth looks forward and sees Satch aiming a sniper at the Bearlotic with a focused expression.
"Yes, brother!"
"Ragrahh!"
The Bearlotic pounces forward and bites Ruth on the shoulder.
"So sad, how persistent!" Ruth screams in anguish.
The very next second, a bullet goes through the Bearlotic's head.
"Thanks for getting in my line of sight, dumbass," Satch says with a confident expression.
Ruth breaks away from the Bearlotic and runs to Satch's side.
"I'm sure you have devised a plan, brother Satch."
"Yes, of course your big brother always has a plan! Aye, Frax, I know you're not knocked out down there unless you're just a pussy bitch!" Satch remarks with a mocking tone.
"So sad our brother really is a lightweight," Ruth exclaims with a smile.
Frax coughs up blood and starts getting up as his body trembles after taking damage from the Bearlotic's attack.
"Yeah, yeah, shut your dumbasses up; I ain't no bitch!" Frax says as he wipes blood from his lip.
"You still breathing properly, bro?" Satch asks.
"Of course just spill the plan, oh so great leader," Frax says in a mocking tone with a smile.
"I read up on this beast; we need to aim for its joints!"
"Oh, so we going for that strategy, huh?" Frax asks as many sharp blades start to grow out of his body.
"So sad I always get thrown to the sidelines with this strategy of attack," Ruth whispers to himself.
"Snachro Brothers! You know what time it is! Frax formation!" Satch yells with a serious tone.
Ruth starts to fill the room with mist, Frax puts on special goggles, and Satch opens up a red portal next to Frax.
The Bearlotic starts looking around frantically while blinded by mist.
"Raah," the Bearlotic yelps in fear.
"Yeah, let's go. I'm about to cut this bastard apart!" Frax shouts with an excited smile.
Satch also puts on special goggles so he can see through Ruth's mist.
Frax jumps into Satch's pocket dimension, and then the portal pops back up behind the Bearlotic.
"Yes, an opening!" Frax says happily.
Frax jumps out of the portal and slashes both of the Bearlotic's knee joints and then jumps into another portal before the beast even notices.
"Rahhh," the Bearlotic screams in anguish.
Then another portal appears in front of the Bearlotic, and Frax jumps out.
"Uh, oh, is the big ol beast hurt? Let me keep going!"
Frax slashes Bearlotic's ankle joints and then slashes its wrist joints.
"Good, Frax, keep going until you get all of the important ones!" Satch yells.
After slashing the beast's elbow joints, Frax jumps back into the portal.
"Brother Frax is doing good for once," Ruth remarks.
Above the Bearlotic, a portal appears, and Frax drops down on the beast.
Frax slashes the Bearlotic's elbow joints, and after quick concessions of attacks, the Bearlotic falls to its knees.
Frax jumps off the Bearlotic's back and then slashes the muscles holding its mouth together.
"Now!"
Many blades start to grow out of Frax's right arm.
As Frax goes to slam his blades into the Bearlotic's chest, something happens.
"Ruth, take down the mist!" Satch yells in panic.
When the mist comes down, the brothers see the Bearlotic's stomach ripped out open from the inside. The inside of the Bearlotic's stomach has teeth and multiple tongues with bubbles deep inside.
"Rahh!"
The tongues in the Bearlotic's stomach stretch out and wrap around Frax before he can get away.
"Eww, what the fuck!"
The tounges pull in Frax, and the stomach closes, trapping Frax inside.
"Frax! No!" Ruth screams with a shocked expression.
Suddenly Ruth's expression turns to anger, and he begins to run toward the Bearlotic.
"You'll pay for what you did to my brother, you bastard beast!" Ruth screams in anger.
Before Ruth can run any further, Satch jumps in front of him.
"Big brother Satch, what are you doing? He just—!"
"Ruth, just calm down and use your working eyes, damn it!" Satch exclaims with a commanding tone.
"Huh? What are you talking about?" Ruth says as he breathes heavily.
Both brothers look over to the Bearlotic and see the back of the beast moving in a motion that looks like something is pounding from the inside.
"Raaahh!" the beast screams in pain.
As something moves around in the Bearlotic's stomach, Satch hops into his pocket dimension.
"Could it be?" Ruth asks.
Ruth rushes in and punches the Bearlotic square in the face, making the beast lose focus on his stomach. Suddenly a blade pokes out of the back of the beast from the inside. Then another one pokes out as five more blades poke out of the back of the beast.
"This isn't enough to hold me bastard!"
Suddenly the Bearlotic's back gets torn apart from the inside, and the one to pull himself out of his back is Frax, who has blades poking out of each inch of his body.
"Out of all the things I was going to do today, I didn't think getting eaten by a stomach would be on the bingo board," Frax says, covered in blood.
"Brother Frax, your ok—"
Ruth gets rid of the relieved expression on his face and becomes calm.
"So sad brother Frax can't escape some slimy tongues," Ruth says in a smug tone.
"Hey, bros, move out of the way already," Satch screams from behind.
Frax and Ruth look back and see Satch sitting on top of a cannon with wheels.
"Ahhh!" Frax and Ruth scream as they both run out of the way.
"Fire in the hole!" Satch yells.
The cannon goes off, and once everyone hears the boom sound, the cannon shoots and blows off the entire upper body of the Bearlotic killing it.
"And that's how you get a job done, boys!" Satch screams in an upbeat tone.
Satch drops the cannon back into his pocket dimension and goes over to his brothers.
"Good job, brother Satch, so sad that Frax couldn't finish the beast off himself," Ruth remarks.
"Hey dumbass I'm right here! Don't think I didn't know about your little tantrum after I got swallowed!" Frax exclaims with a ticked-off tone.
"So sad Frax believes anything he dreams about!"
"You bitch!" Frax screams as he turns his fingernails into blades.
As Frax and Ruth bicker in the background, Satch goes over to look at the dead Bearlotic body lying on the floor.
"We did a fine dandy job here. I hope that Exploiter chick gives us a good amount. She is a feared legend after all; she should be stupid rich with all the exploiting she be doing," Satch thinks to himself with a smile.
Satch looks behind him and sees Frax and Ruth still arguing.
"I'll carve you the fuck up, you big bitch!" Frax yells while sticking out his tongue.
"So sad I don't talk to short stacks," Ruth exclaims while chuckling.
Satch looks forward back to the Bearlotic with a smile.
"Soon enough, this will be our most successful mission."
