At the very least, Franklin was being quite considerate and rarely argued with Uvogin anymore.
After all, taking food from someone else meant you had to show some restraint.
No one else had any objections either. Compared to what they used to eat, this food was simply leagues better.
"As for the costumes, I've already designed some basic styles for the battle team uniforms."
As Chrollo spoke, he took a bite of a fluffy white steamed bun.
It was truly packed with the fragrance of wheat!
Their everyday clothing and casual outfits outside of battle did not need much alteration.
Strictly speaking, Meteor City could be considered a "secret realm," so their clothing was fairly suitable for living deep in the mountains and forests.
But as for the team uniforms...
"I think we can add some embellishments like this."
After Mog offered some good suggestions, Chrollo made a few revisions, and the outfits ended up looking quite similar to the original Hyakuju Sentai costumes.
And now, it was time to use...
"Costume Change Camera~!"
Mog pulled another brand-new invention from his hands.
It was a square camera with a lens in the middle and strange patterns around it.
Invention: Costume Change Camera
Source: Doraemon World—Future Technology Company.
Effect: It looks like a camera. Put a picture of clothing inside and take someone's photo, and they will instantly wear the clothes in the picture. If there is no picture inside, the person being photographed will become naked.
"Just insert the picture like this..."
After Mog placed Chrollo's costume design into the camera, he aimed it at Chrollo and lightly pressed the shutter.
Click.
Poof~!!
A cloud of mist immediately dispersed, and Chrollo instantly changed into an eye-catching, handsome red team uniform!!
"It's so pretty~!!"
The group, who had been lazily resting after eating and drinking their fill, immediately crowded around Chrollo when they saw him changed.
"So this is our team uniform?! That's amazing!!"
"Wow, wow! Wearing this would definitely look super cool!!"
"This fabric is amazing too! I've never seen clothes made from such good material!!"
"You can actually conjure clothes out of thin air?! That's way too incredible, isn't it?!!"
"How does this even work?!!"
Why the Hell Did You Have to Drag Me Along to Be a Villain?!
The group was both fascinated by the beautiful team uniform on Chrollo and astonished by the transformation itself.
They could create beautiful clothes just by using a photo of them?!!
Such a thing was practically unheard of. They had never even heard of it before!!
Yet Mog had done it so easily.
He was practically like an ancient immortal in a wishing pool. No matter what people asked for, he seemed able to do it!!
That was right. Uvogin secretly gave that a thumbs-up.
Mog really did have the peculiar habit of only helping when people asked him to.
"With this, the costumes are settled too!!"
Having worn the outfit himself, Chrollo gave it a proper test.
Whether it was large, high jumps, running, and other activities, or simply sitting and lying down while resting...
This outfit felt smooth and comfortable in every way.
And most importantly...
It looked incredibly good and cool!!
"I'm really getting more and more confident about this filming project!!"
Chrollo smiled at Mog, his voice carrying a rare hint of excitement and admiration.
"With costumes and preparations like these, we'll definitely make an outstanding work!!"
"This is far better than I originally imagined~!!"
"We really have you to thank for providing all these props and logistical support, Mog!!"
At Chrollo's words, everyone else nodded in agreement.
Whether it was the abundant and delicious food Mog provided them, these incredibly cool and comfortable costumes...
Or the holographic projector and other items that had not yet officially been put to use and could serve as backgrounds...
Everything Mog had brought out and prepared had won their wholehearted approval.
Even Franklin and Shira, the two slightly more mature and kind-hearted ones, felt that Mog had already done more than enough.
Meanwhile, they had done nothing here but eat Mog's food and wear Mog's clothes...
It inevitably made them feel a little ashamed.
"It's nothing. We need them for filming anyway~~~"
Mog looked Chrollo up and down, then clicked his tongue in admiration. "In that case, Lion Red is confirmed!!"
Mm, Mog had no intention of changing the original standard team lineup.
Red for the lion, yellow for the Gray Eagle, blue for the shark, white for the White Tiger, and black for the Running Bull.
Then, depending on the filming situation, they could add the original Silver Wolf or other animals.
As for making Chrollo the lead character, Lion Red...
Once the show became popular, Chrollo would step into the spotlight and attract more attention.
Meanwhile, Mog could quietly remain behind the scenes.
A team needed people behind the scenes, but it also needed people in front of them.
Chrollo would be the one to uphold the image of their little team.
If this work truly became popular, there might be other troublesome matters to deal with.
With Chrollo's intelligence, resolving such issues and dealing with all kinds of people was precisely what he excelled at.
By then, even outsiders would probably think Chrollo was the core leader of the team.
And Mog, the true big boss, could happily remain hidden in the background.
Within the team itself, there was no need to say more. Mog already ranked above Chrollo.
Whether it was his age, mannerisms, contributions, or the sheer wonder of his various strange inventions...
Just the fact that he could make everyone eat well and eat their fill was enough to ensure that his position could not be shaken.
Not to mention that Mog would continue using the inventions in his hands to further solidify his position.
His role as an inventor might not stand out in the script, but the inventions he gained through it would raise Mog's foundation by several levels.
After Chrollo finished testing it, everyone else began claiming roles as well.
Nobunaga took the yellow Gray Eagle, Franklin got the black Running Bull, Shalnark snagged the blue Sea Shark, and Pakunoda received the white White Tiger.
Thus, the initial five members were decided.
"That's so nice. I really want to wear an outfit like that too..."
Sarasa, standing nearby, had a face full of envy.
Mm, among everyone present, she was the youngest and shortest, even shorter than Feitan.
She had not developed yet, unlike Feitan.
Because of her height, there naturally was no suitable role for her in the team.
Voice acting would be fine, but acting...
"So I can only play the Guide Envoy on Sacred Mountain?"
Sarasa sighed as she looked at the script.
There was a Saintess on Sacred Mountain who guided the members of Hyakuju Sentai into becoming true warriors. When Sacred Mountain came under attack, she also notified the team members.
It was not a major role, but she was still a positive character.
"You should be satisfied. It's already good enough that you have a role."
Franklin, delighted that someone with his appearance could get a positive role, comforted her.
As a nice guy, he had always picked the roles everyone else left behind.
In the original story, he had chosen the voice-acting role of King Mohei, the great villain nobody else wanted.
Now, he had gotten another role representing black.
But this time, he was truly a partner of justice!!
"We originally thought that, with Machi's personality, she'd be better suited to playing a Saintess like this..."
"I don't want to!!"
Machi, unusually angry, sternly refused from the side.
"Why? It's a Saintess role?! It's everyone's dream..."
"Then you play it! If I have to act, I want to play a villain!! Villain, villain, villain!!"
Machi grumbled there.
