What're We Gonna Do? (どーするかねえ Dō Suru ka nē?) is the ninetieth chapter of the Dandadan manga series.
Summary[]
The Serpo explains to Momo, Aira, Jiji and Mr. Mantis Shrimp that the time it takes to warp to Earth is approximately five days and that they must quickly defeat their enemy and retrieve Okarun's kintama before they call in their main force. After Aira questions how they will be able to find them, the Serpo tells her that he has a few ideas to solve this problem. Momo finds that the major problem for them is whether or not they will be able to beat the alien group. After looking at the Serpo, she hears him replying that they have no chance at beating them but chooses to disregard his opinion. While looking at Jiji, Aira says that she will be able to defeat them as long as no one gets in her way the next time. Despite this, Jiji tells her that she can't do it on her own. Wanting her grandmother to assist them, Momo asks for Mr. Mantis Shrimp to pick up Seiko using his spaceship. Mr. Mantis Shrimp tells Momo that he is unable to do so since his spaceship actually belongs to Ludris and that finding him would be difficult since he just so happened to run into him on Earth at the time. Hearing Ludris' name, the Serpo becomes shocked and explains to the group that he is an all knowing and powerful alien and that running into him is considered to be a miracle. This information leaves Momo amazed at the fact that she unknowingly kicked such an important person, which shocks the Serpo. Since they can't get Seiko to join them, Momo decides that their next course of action is to train for the next five days and to come up with a plan based on what they know about each of their enemies' abilities. The Serpo finds that staying where they are right now is dangerous since the enemy is likely to come back for them, which can risk the main force being summoned within a day if they manage to capture and use their energies with Okarun's kintama. He then suggests relocating to the Serpo's base to avoid this. With Okarun being in critical condition to move, Jiji comes up with the plan to transform the Ayase house into a robot like before. Momo and Aira object to this, much to Jiji's disappointment since he never got to see it while transformed as the Evil Eye and wishes to pilot it. Mr. Mantis Shrimp then suggests transforming the house into a car as an alternative. Momo finds this option suitable but decides to convert it into a bike after Aira points out that neither of them have licenses. Though she successfully transforms it, the three become shocked to see that the bike is too big to pedal on and that Okarun is hanging from the basket. Momo tries her hand again and ends up modeling the bike into a cat, having noticed that one was with them. Aira then steps in to fix the problem but ends up forming a large dessert with parts of a car and a lip, having visualized a romantic date with Okarun. The problem is then fixed by Mr. Mantis Shrimp after visualizing the Ayase house with eight legged wheels. With neither her nor Aira being successful, Momo figures that it is best that they don't attempt this stunt again and wonders how they managed to build a robot the last time.
