Zoro tries to find Luffy, Luffy creates a ruckus somewhere and Zoro figure out that that is exactly where Luffy might be. Zoro cuts off something huge that stands in his way (creating an equal or even bigger ruckus.)
Zoro : Why can't you sneak in quietly?
(idr his name guy but I feel bad for him) : Sneak in quietly? Look who's talking....
Eustass : Does he know what he's talking about?
Zoro : Did you forget what the plan was?
Luffy : No, I remember! But these fools!...they intentionally spilled the red bean soup!
Insert a picture of Tama enjoying the red bean soup, which she had for the very first time, and the happiness she felt, especially because of the conditions and the whole backstory of the town and there not being enough food.
One thing I love from the Duskmourn story is that the Wanderer apparently ranks Kyodai and Yoshimaru's safety higher than that of her childhood friend.
“NOW LET ME TELL YOU SOMETHING BROTHER! I KNOW, THAT YOU KNOW, THAT YOU THOUGHT YOU WERE GONNA GET AWAY WITH THIS! YOU THOUGHT THAT BLUE BULL WASN’T GONNA TELL YOU THE COUNT O’ TEN FOR ALL THAT PROPERTY DAMAGE!
WELL LEMMEE TELL YA SOMETHING, ALL THE BULLHONKEYS* IN THE STATE, THE COUNTY, THE TRI-STATE AREA, THE WORLD, WEREN’T GONNA STAND, NO THEY WEREN’T, FOR THE BLUE BULL NOT STANDIN’ UP! SO I STAND FOR ‘EM!
AND I’M GONNA TELL YOU-”

Who is this heroic her-bo? More on her past the break!
Appearing roughly a few months after the Mother Conquest incident, the figure who calls herself Blue Bull (Despite her outfit having approximately zero blue on it) is a ray of hope in the public eye, a hero and an inspiration, fighting off malevolent kaiju across the world.
With her high level of strength relative to other kaiju, her “sunbeam teleport,” her ability to create solar-energy beams and constructs (Most notoriously her Solar Sword) and her immense array of elaborate wrestling moves, she is flashy, powerful, and a powerful ally to humanity, getting along extremely well with Jiira and Bash and complete with so very; very much in the way of merchandise oficial and bootlegged alike!
Unlike other kaiju, she is also very talkative. Like, comically, extremely talkative. In the bombastic manner of dinosaur-tranquilizer fueled ranting-and-raving exactly like you would expect from a pro-wrestler, which has helped endear her to the public.
And while it is perhaps slightly unfair to call her “dumb as hell,” she has a tendency towards naiivety and towards her sense of style and flashy presentation tripping her up in actual fights. She does, however, have a surprising depth of emotional intelligence, and is shockingly good at talking other kaiju down when she can, “because that’s what heroes do”
Though, despite her talkative nature, her actual origins and nature are an enigma, despite the numerous interviews she’s given (including an all-timer with DW Devlin), but a few things have slipped.
She has stated her power comes from an entity “not of our sun, but of THE SUN, the true Sun” from “the realm between the shining dawns and glittering dusks,” and she will ramble on and on about this if you let her. Despite the fact that her explaination is in fact slightly more incoherent than; say; the time the Ultimate Warrior made a comic book.
She also has a human identity, but she has been very tight-lipped as to who, supposedly to avoid attacks on her, but there’s suspicions other reasons factor in as well. It is speculated she is a major pro-wrestler in her daily life due to how adept she is at the art and how easily she is able to get around the world to witness fights despite the distance limits of her “sunbeam teleport” being within a city at most.
It is also, from things she has let slip, speculated that her human form is AMAB transfemme, but deeply in the closet due to reasons both personal and career-related, and that Blue Bull is perhaps an expressionf or who she views as her “true self,” hence the level of stage-y theatricality she has, and also the times she’s “accidentally” stepped on various fundamentalist megachurches and buildings belonging to the United States Republican Party.
As an aside, her powers do not work particularly well in areas without sunlight, such as at night or against monsters like Daiogin with darkness powers, leaving her energy constructs/beams very weak and her sunbeam teleport nonexistent. These can be mitigated by positive psychic energy in the immediate area however, such as with; say; thousands of screaming Bullhonkeys* granting her their strength…
...Also, even if you ask her, she will not step on you. Because “That’s not what heroes do…”
*Note that “Bullhonkeys” as a name for her fans started as an ironic joke based on the Internet’s extreme level of Homestar Runner-poisoning, and then ended up becoming unironic, because that’s how these things always happen...

SO, I felt I just had to make a tokusatsu-type hero for this iteration of kaijune, and I went with trying to do one who was very archetypical as a do-gooder, since I haven't really had anything specifically in that Ultraman-y kyodai-hero-type vein in my Kaijune setting.
I kinda ended up making her a female-himbo-type and a pro-wrestler-type because; A) Kaiju Big Batel and B) Because it's always really fun to write. And the mystery of her identity is a fun hook for anyone who wants to use her in anything!
On that note, as per usual with Kaijune, this silly statuesque stomper is free to use as you see fit under a CC-BY 4.0 license so long as I; Thomas F. Johnson, am credited as their creator!
