Story
Part 6-1: Robots With a… Responsibility?
The story begins by explaining how Gonji had recently found his way to Jinjo Village, and began to try and get through the Digger Tunnel. His pickaxe wasn't working, though, so he left to find something else. Also in the tunnel were two mysterious figures, who were planning on kidnapping a jinjo.
Later, Gonji got to Jinjo Village with some dynamite from Glitter Gulch Mine, but a bunch of jinjos tried to confiscate them due to explosives not being allowed. Some jinjos thought Gonji was a terrorist as he ran into the Digger Tunnel, and tried to light a stick of dynamite. Just then, the only exist was sealed off and Flare and Chopper made their presence known. Chopper fired a beam at Gonji, which ignited the dynamite fuse, and the other jinjos threw it at Flare and Chopper to blast them to pieces.
Part 6-2: Jinjo On Trial
The next day, Gonji was put on trial for the illegal explosives. No one expected him to be guilty, though, until one witness said he thought Gonji was working with the robots. After some fighting, suddenly they heard screaming outside and saw Flare and Chopper kidnapping two jinjos. Gonji agreed to go rescue them in exchange for them forgetting the whole mess, and so he followed them to Bubblegloop Swamp. At that point, he got lost, and then suddenly something burst out of the swamp in front of him.
Part 6-3: Another Rhyming Part
The second rhyming part (the first being in Pokemon Realgar, the entire part was in rhyme. In it, the something from the last part revealed to be Croco; Bien then showed up as well. After that, a giant turtle shell appeared out of the swamp. Gonji figured they were there, so he went towards it, Croco and Bien following.
Part 6-4: It’s a Storybook Format Battle!
In this part, the three of them entered the turtle shell, and saw the inside was like a lab. Flare and Chopper appeared, and they battled; Flare and Chopper were defeated, and the group of 3 went to look for the kidnapped Jinjos.
Part 6-5: Now With Giant Robot Fighting Action! (MUSCULAR PART)
When the three of them found the Jinjos, cages sprang up and kidnapped them! Kienstrom introduced himself, and explained he had kidnapped the Jinjos to experiment on. Croco asked for a phone so he could make a phone call, so Kienstrom gave him a phone and went to start up the machines. Croco called Mr. Vile, telling him to start up the robot that the giant Crocodile was.
Kienstrom returned and brought Gonji to the experimenting room, but before he could begin the base was shook badly by the crocodile robot. Kienstrom began to activate his lab's transforming feature, but because the base's shaking battered the cages, the Jinjos, Croco and Bien were able to escape. The crocodile robot destroyed Kienstrom's base to where an explosion was imminent, so the head of Kienstrom's lab detached and flew away from the planet as the rest of it exploded. And so, the story ended, with Croco and Bien saying they'd help Gonji out any time... it was convenient.

Trivia
- This story was originally a plot that was to be used in Jinjo Crossing, a town RP that had its beginning in a Banjo-Kazooie and Rareware fan thread on NSider. When NSider killed off RPing, the starter of said thread, Malons Ocarina, began a forum called It Is A Title. It would not work out, however, and Jinjo Crossing failed. Later, Topmonhit tried to make it an RPC story, but never got around to it before beginning Topmonhit Story.
- This is the only Topmonhit Story so far that had no guest stars at all (excluding Slubes, which did not accept guest stars).
Connections to Other Stories
