[Dante can't help but scowl as he listens. Everything Aerith says is correct. As much as he genuinely likes Toraguma on some regards, the Oni is still a mobster. There's no changing that fact. If Dante wasn't conscripted to join the Shuten Clan's ranks, he definitely would've on the other side of this gang conflict. Dante doesn't want anything to do with these petty gang wars but he's in the yakuza now whether he likes it or not. It's a sobering reality, one that Dante clearly dislikes.]

You've said a mouthful, babe. [He mutters with a hint of sarcasm in his tone.] But you're not wrong. The only thing these people care about is power and we're nothing more than pawns at this point.

The same goes for the entire Kappa tribe.

[That's probably what aggravates him the most about all this mess. The entire tribe is about become the scapegoats in this nonsense. That's not exactly fair since Dante's certain not all of them played a role in this insidious plot.]

If I find out Toraguma was involved in this mess, I might just handle himself.

[That's not a threat, that's a promise at this point.]

I've downed nastier baddies than old blue boy, the same goes for Tenkohime and the Enma dude.
