Beginning & End - June 8
Chapter VIII - General vs. Captain

Akio who started to stand up from his chair, opened his voice with a sharp look in his eyes.

"all right, let me be serious for a minute, guys, I honestly don't want to show you who I am. However, because something broke my heart a little, so I hope you accept leadership for a while" Akio said, staring intently at Rusty.

Cheers and applause accompanied the new General

"i'm not as good as history knows, so please help your friends to help me in eradicating Pires"

The atmosphere around it became hotter.

"about what Chairman Baksoro was talking about... Sorry I mean baskoro, I want to take command of the war against Pires in Malaysia, and I will also choose my team to go there. Please, for the name that I mentioned is willing to help me advance to the battlefield later" said Akio full of seriousness from the look in his eyes

"Airi, Juke, and Ellia... Those who will come with me will help Malaysia"

"hey!!! invite me also dong, I am the captain in PCI should I deserve more than those you mentioned" said Captain Rusty did not accept Akio's decision.

Akio, who heard Rusty's words, was annoyed by his words and tried to test them.

"alright Captain, what if I offer you a duel against me? If you win, no. If you succeed in injuring me, Captain. I give the command of the war in Malaysia to you" said Akio defied Rusty because he was stunned with his words.

"woaahh exciting nihh!! beriiii Harumaaa... " The cry of the Cronites awaited him

Akio from the beginning decided to be more serious after his appointment as General, no more laughter came out of his mouth.

Rusty who felt insulted by Akio's words immediately accepted the offer of General Tanoa long thought again.

"how long do you want in this duel, captain?"

"1 minute I think it's enough for the general to hurt you" Rusty said confidently.

"alright, if you can hold on to me that long" Akio said with a still sharp gaze

Renata, who is a Cronites of protective type, prepares the duel arena of the general and captain in his [Cube]

"[Protect immortal 4 sis] !" shouted Renata let out his protector as the battle arena Captain and General so as not to destroy the Hall.

Formed a transparent blue box with a size large enough to float in the middle of the hall.

Rusty, who was impatient, jumped into the box accompanied by Akio.

"Closing!!!" said Renata slowly

Closed space opened up on that 4-sided Eternal Protect.

"are you ready, general?" rusty said with a sharp eye.

"Sringgggg." The sound of 2 swords being ejected from Rusty's scabbard, lit up with a ray of his strength.

"do you want to know why I'm nicknamed HARUMA captain?" ask Akio slowly

"bacooottt!!!" shouted Rusty who was preparing to attack Akio

As fast as the blink of an eye, Akio who had been far in front of Rusty suddenly was on the captain's feet.

"KLEGAARRR!!!" the powerful lacing from Akio's hand grips landed right on Rusty's face from above. Rusty who was hit by Akio's punch was blown down through Renata's Eternal Protect so hard that it smashed the floor in the middle of the Hall with enough size.

All eyes that watched was widened greatly, not expecting the captain class to fall in a matter of seconds.

Before long the Eternal Protect disappeared, seeing that the condition of the Captain who was injured was quite severe, the healing-type Cronites quickly treated the captain.

Akio, who looked directly at Ellia at the corner of the exit, smiled as if the retaliation for Ellia, which was always bothered by Captain Rusty, was avenged.

"are you crazy, boyhhh!!! " shouted Chairman Baksoro from the top of the podium.

Akio walked slowly back to the top of the podium.

"alright Captain, let me lead the fight against Pires in Malaysia later, if you can still hear it.

The Cronites were still unable to shut their mouths that were flabbergasted by the duel earlier, only to be amazed by the prowess of the Haruma and not be able to say anything.

"for all of you knights of Cronites, be even stronger! Because Pires is a creature that can not be underestimated. Because they (pires) continue to evolve over time" Akio's serious facial features reassured his remarks to Cronites**.

At 06:00 AM local time, the end of the meeting was closed with a meal together, and the bond of the Indonesian Cronites.

While the meal together took place, Akio and Chairman Baskoro immediately left the hall through [teleport] Akio, they both moved and were in the Bogor PCI Park.

"are you crazy about what you're doing, boy!!!" baskoro shouted at Akio

"i hate him Baksoro, he has broken my heart over his treatment of Ellia, let alone his words that were quite insulting to me during the meeting"

"you don't need to think about it, Baksoro, I'm just giving him a little lesson. I just want to make the Cronites believe what I say, what they're up against"

Akio who wants to tell about what happened to him after the events of 4 years ago during a big battle in Germany with Chairman Baskoro who gave deep heart and physical wounds Akio, who was the leader of Germany, to express what he had been harboring all this time.

"Baksoro.. My body is no longer as strong as it used to be. As a result of the wounds given by Bhagiah (the ruler of Pires) made my body reach its limit, although my strength increased, but my body can no longer compensate"

Chairman Baskoro who did not expect the speech from Akio, just fell silent and focused on listening.

"to be honest, I just want peace and freedom, just like people want. Therefore, let me train the Cronites to the end of their abilities, because you know yourself ten.." said Akio did not finish his words because it was cut Baskoro.

"heyy Akiooo, I have always believed in you, if it was your decision, it would be mine. I'm just your right-hand weapon, it's inappropriate for you to say so"

"weapons well.." said Akio in a tone that sounded sad.

Akio instantly recalled the death of Kaori who was his left weapon during the war against Bhagiah back then, his unstoppable tears remembering her flowing past his cheeks.

Baskoro who tried to calm down by patting Akio on the shoulder, could only lament Akio's sadness with his feelings.

"Baksoro, I've taken you as my own father, and Kaori I've taken it as my own sister. I am still not ready to lose you too if the battle happens again" Akio said in his sobs.

"please Baksoro, if the battle against Bhagiah is repeated again, I'm sure you will withdraw from the battle" Akio said from his deepest heart.
