Nagato Kagutsuchi: The Dawn
Ch. 200 - Determined Kenji! Crimped Two Walls of Land!
Kenji's hand trembled after hearing his name called, never did he think this year his opponent was the one who defeated him in the past year. The figure of Ashiya Giyumaru is a wall that is difficult to penetrate by Kenji.
Renji, Takao and Ninjin see the cold-sweated Kenji, the three of them patting Kenji on the shoulder simultaneously.
"Show me that stupid spirit, Kenji! Don't be afraid like this! You don't look like my friend Kenji!" Takao was the first to speak to Kenji. Not long after Ninjin spoke up.
"Don't let him win this time, Kenji!" Only those words came out of Ninjin's mouth. Honestly, the young man was confused to encourage Kenji.
Renji glanced at the two friends who were holding Kenji's shoulders. The young man also understood the power of Ashiya far above all of them, in order to restore the confidence of his friend, Renji said, "Remember your goal in this tournament. I heard you wanted to get into the top 16. Even though we have different goals, I can see your determination when you say that. But look at you now, your confidence is gone. You have to remember what you said back then, Kenji!"
Renji deliberately provoked Kenji's emotions about his words during the preliminary round of the Kai Tiger Tournament. Renji hears Kenji who will try hard to get into the round of 16 for Yuri to accept his feelings.
"Yuri..." Kenji muttered softly. His eyes were fixed on Yuri who was looking at him.
"Thank you all. This year, I will not lose! I'll show you the results of my training for a year!" Kenji stood up confidently. Then he went down to the center of the Tiger Circle Arena. When passing Yuri who is with Chiaki and Chaika. Kenji's footsteps paused for a moment, after which he said softly, "Yuri, after this, I want you to accept my feelings. But if I fail to defeat him, then forget about me who has always bothered you. Let's just say I like you it never was."
Yuri was speechless hearing Kenji's words that slightly touched her heart, while Chiaki and Chaika who heard him pretended to act as if they both heard nothing.
"Annu ... Chiaki's sister?" Chaika looked at her twin sister timidly. His eyes looked at Chiaki while his clasped fingers he put together.
"Eh? What's the matter Chaika?" Chiaki responded to Chaika's words while scratching her hair.
Yuri raised her eyebrows as she saw Chiaki and Chaika who were looking confused, quickly the girl embracing Chiaki and Chaika's neck.
"You two heard that, didn't you?" Yuri asked to make sure. Chiaki and Chaika only answered with a soft head. Yuri who saw that gently pinched the cheeks of the two twin girls, "Don't lie. Answer the truth!" Yuri urged the two twin girls she was embracing to say honest things.
"Yes, Brother Yuri, I heard it." Chiaki took off Yuri's embrace and looked at the girl.
"Hmmm, good, Chiaki has been honest. Now it's Chaika." Yuri stared fiercely at Chiaki after which she glanced at Chaika.
"Eh .. yes ... Brother Yuri..." Chaika glazed over her eyes, seeing that Yuri directly stroked Chaika's delicate hair.
"Forget what you heard. This is a problem between me and Kenji. You two don't interfere later." Yuri said firmly and reminded. The two twin girls just nodded.
Meanwhile, on a special spectator bench occupied by three young, uncrowned warriors, a 17-year-old with silver hair laughed as his name was called. His name was Ashiya Giyumaru.
"Interesting, interesting. Last year I won against him and kept him from twitching at all. This year is quite surprising, even though at this time I hope to fight a young man named Fuyumi Nagato." Ashiya smiled widely and held onto her hair. The silver-colored hair was tightly squeezed by Ashiya.
"Himuro! You always don't show any expression! This year I will beat you! This is the last year for us!" Ashiya stood up and stared coldly at the red-haired youth named Himuro Kirigiri. "I'll make you smile again like you used to! You're not even more than a human being who's lost his feelings!" Ashiya walked away from the special spectator bench occupied by three young crowned warriors.
"The man told me, if I manage to become a champion and defeat Himuro, then my friend will be cured!" Ashiya was full of emotions. He tried to calm himself down as he walked in the middle of the Tiger Circle Arena field approaching the figure of the man who was the referee.
Gyuki noticed Ashiya who looked unsettled, then her gaze was directed at Kenji who seemed to be breathing in.
"It looks like these two participants had quite a troublesome past. I guess they're both sworn enemies." Gyuki was deep in his heart. The man had never attended the Kai Tiger Tournament every year, even this year he was forced to come see the Kai Tiger Tournament and accept the part of being a referee.
The father of Akaramizarawa Gyuki is Commander Goro who has the full name Akaramizarawa Goro. Before Goro's departure to the Shikaku Cliffs located somewhere in the Kinai Empire, Goro advised his son that this year he come to see the Kai Tiger Tournament. Gyuki's own identity is very secret because from childhood, Gyuki lives with others, and the person is not Commander Goro and Granny Sachie.
"Participants are now very interesting to me. I've even heard rumors of three uncrowned young warriors and ten genius young warriors." Gyuki was deep in her heart while her hands covered her laughing mouth. It was not long before he was back in his mind as Ashiya and Kenji stared at himself full of astonishment. "It's ridiculous those ten goddamn elders! It's old still acting like a grown-up new kid, you money-eater!" Gyuki's suddenly cold gaze was deeply felt on Ashiya and Kenji's skin.
Gyuki has neither great ambition nor passion to inherit his father as the head of the Akaramizarawa Family nor become a Commander of the Kai Empire. Gyuki's only goal is one, to eradicate the corrupt and rid the Kai Empire of the darkness of Satra and the few people who take part in it.
Gyuki is well aware that she already has strong evidence, but she needs a powerful force. In order to bring down the caste system prevailing in the Western Province and some other provinces, Gyuki needed great power. And to subdue the Ten Elders Kai, of course Gyuki must do so with a mature plan.
After Gyuki was silent for quite a while, her hand signaled Ashiya and Kenji to immediately keep their distance. His eyes stared intently at Ashiya and Kenji who were already on the white line.
"The fourth match between Ashiya Giyumaru and Kitakaze Kenji, begins!" Gyuki made a loud voice, boisterous claps from the audience and audience shouts echoed throughout the corners of the Tiger Circle Arena.
The first strike was launched by Kenji who slashed his sword from afar creating a wind slash. The young man again launched a consecutive attack on Ashiya.
"Later playing he's been hot. Hey, hey, I haven't warmed up!" Ashiya held his sword and slashed out his sword to fend off the consecutive attacks that Kenji had missed.
Ashiya flicked his sword making the wind slash strike that Kenji was thrust into the ground and made an explosion.
Ashiya's right hand held tightly to her sword, while her left hand squeezed, opened and squeezed back.
"Two Ground Clamps!"
Along with Ashiya's left hand squeezing, opening and squeezing it back, the ground around Kenji swayed. It is seen that Kenji painstakingly keeps his body in balance. Not how long Ashiya's left hand squeezed tightly.
"Lose and fall because of my earth wall clasp!" Ashiya is full of confidence.
A ground that formed a wall came out from the ground on Kenji's left and right sides. Not long after Ashiya squeezed his left hand, the two walls of the ground squeezed Kenji's body.
The sound of a wall collision rang out, the dust started to disturb the visibility. Ashiya frowned waiting for the signs from Kenji.
"This dust always comes out every time I use this attack!" Ashiya was full of annoyance.
All the spectators gazed into the center of the Tiger Circle Arena field that was going on an interesting match.
The dust began to slowly dissipate, not how long it had been seen below there were two walls of earth colliding. But the two walls of the ground have not been fully fused. The sound of the collision of the two walls of the ground came from Kenji's sword holding the clasps of two walls of the ground which left him in an unfortunate position.
