Go! Greenman
"Greenman vs. Bullpull"
Bullpull was the fifth monster to battle Greenman. He was hidden inside a child's toy car by Tonchiki, springing out after being picked up from a cloud of smoke. He chased several children before one of them summoned Greenman by pulling out a Green Call to save them. Bullpull did not last long in his fight and was saved at the last second by Tonchiki, who made him grow to a gigantic size. As the battle continued, Bullpull used his telepathy to induce tremendous pain onto Greenman, taking control of the warrior's arm and causing it to stiffen up. Unfortunately for Bullpull, Greenman was able to break out of the monster's telepathic control rather quickly. Greenman then attempted to fire a Leg Arrow at the beast, only for Bullpull to dodge it. Once again, Bullpull used his telepathy to stiffen Greenman's arm, allowing him to steal the envoy's Greenman Stick when the hero summoned it. However, Greenman broke out of Bullpull's telepathy once more after regaining his Greenman Stick. Bullpull met his end after Greenman beat him severely with the weapon, killing him with a strike from its explosive tip.
