It's still weird talking to Konzen. He's not sure it'll ever stop being weird. It would've been less weird in the beginning, before he went and got himself a pep talk from Genjyo-sanzo alongside Yaone. Doku still has the gut reaction to just the deck the guy on principal, but focuses on looking through the bushes at his pursuers. Thankfully, they haven't spotted him just yet. Time to attempt to reassure his partner for the mission.

"Get in, get out - that's the fastest way to get a job done, isn't it?" He asks in a low voice and means it. "My shinki's not here and neither is yours; what else did you expect a Family God to do to a bunch of motorcycles? Crush them in a hug?"

Not like the guy offered up any other plans anyway. He'd gotten too frustrated with the smart remarks and constantly shooting down his plans, so he'd just run off and left Konzen here to play lookout. At least he'd done that much - they hadn't been spotted yet.
