Okami Amaterasu, origin of all that is good and mother to us all, is used to all sorts of strange requests. That they come at the oddest times is nothing unusual, either. Oh but the crabs are so interesting though! She wants to bark and chase and bother them, just a little, just a little tiny bit.

But the request! She mustn't be so easily distracted. "Certainly, allow me.." She pauses, noticing the knife in the crab's hand. "Oh! He is armed, how adorable!" Genuine delight settles into her voice, ears perked up. "Does he know how to use it?" She wonders aloud, before padding close to the crab and having a little swipe taken out of her fur as a reward. "Oh he does!"

Perhaps she's already been distracted by her own delight, or perhaps this is how she will keep the crab distracted?
