-- // THE STRUGGLE FOR COIN
Gideon snickered at the woman's observation. He pushed one arm after the other through the sleeves, and ran a hand through his golden mane to let the hair trapped below the shirt flow freely on the top; on his face was a satisfied smirk. "Only if you do the same", he replied.
He wasn't going to let Red know that he had appreciated the comment.
When the two got in the sphere complex, they immediately managed to spot the right guy. He was exactly doing the same thing as when he first met Gideon, back when the Gilded Dragons first landed on the island: leisuring with a bunch of girls.
Gideon didn't even have enough time to express his disgust before Red decided to attract his attention by literally throwing a person at their feet. Knowing that action was pretty much the same as what he would've done, Gideon could only look at the redhead's eyes and nod in approval.
A few of Clint's men reached for the gun on their side, but they were stopped by a familiar voice. Familiar to Gideon, at least. "I got this, pardners."

"You come in here and throw my men around...?" He said, lifting up his hat a little. "In Banaro, they'd shoot you for that." Clint Meynard stood up, and adjusted the leather holster of his two guns.
"My 'pardners' were kidnapped by some woman, Clint," Gideon responded, "and a man in a cowboy hat was involved. You're the only ones on the island with that stupid costume, so..."
"... Do you know about a woman with a whip?"
Meynard seemed to be cackling to himself for a few seconds. He shook his head, his scarf rustling around. "They're gone, Gideon. They're probably being sold to someone as we speak." Those words hit Gideon particularly hard, and on his face was visible the manifestation of the rage storming up inside him. "Sold?..."
"You hombres are a bunch of freaks. Freaks sell very well on the black market, y'know?"
"Since you came all the way here, pardners, I can't just let you walk away. Hit'em, Tsukuyomi." From the wall behind the redhead and Gideon seemed to emerge a humanoid silhouette; Gideon only managed to turn by a fraction of an angle before the silhouette managed to strike: a blade, quick and fluid, went right through Gideon's abdomen; thankfully, the position of the wound made it pretty clear that no vital point was hit. "Argh!" Gideon growled, holding the blade with his hand in order for the enemy not to push it further into his body.
On the other side, Clint Meynard pulled out both his guns, and pushed back the hammers with his thumbs. He took aim at the girl, and pulled the trigger.

Tsukuyomi blends into his environment using ninjutsu and a sheet with a pattern that resembles the one of the wall or floor he's trying to blend into. When the moment is ripe, he strikes the opponent with his katana.
