[A/N: Takashi's katana Ryuyami: https://www.chinese-sword.com/products/niger-sabredamascus-steel-red-blade-black-scabbard this is the main design, it is just red and black with a flame dragon tattoo on the edges of the blade]
"Akame!" Screams out Leone as she clenched her fist with anger in her golden eyes. The whole group of Night Raid avered their attention to Akame and Takashi who were about to duel it out. But Takashi had no time for such matters, he wanted to end this quickly.
Takashi releases all of his Dragon-Force powers, an extreme explosion of demonic bright red and black flames burst out of his entire body. His whole body was now covered in black flames, his aura was now completely red like blood, an outline of his aura was seen around his body. His eyes had also changed and had become more draconic, there was no turning back now. Once he uses Dragon-Force all of the powers from his Teigu Ryuyami will revert back to its original state. In other terms, it would just be a normal katana for a short amount of time. It wasn't his Teigu's Trump Card, if he did use his Trump Card everyone would already be dead. No instead that was more of his Trump Card for his Primordial Dragon bloodline. A row of black dragon spikes armor around his shoulders and his hands transformed into shadow-black razor-sharp dragon claws(A/N: First Stage of his Dragon-Force he now looks like the cover art armor and dragon claws flames around his body).
Ryuyami itself was glowing and its black and red dragon-steel blade was now surrounded in blistering flames. Akame's clothes started to melt and her pale face was now profusely sweating, for the first time in years she had finally seen True Power, she had finally seen fear, her arms trembled from the insane strength of Takashi's Dragon-Force transformation, but the fearless assassin stood still and took in the overwhelming heat of Takashi's dragon flames.
"Akame! Get back! I have never seen such power before!" Leone angrily growled as she showed her lion fangs.
"Who the hell is this guy!?" Yelled out the pink haired tiny assassin girl she had an annoyed stuck- up look on her face. She was wearing a pink outfit, consisting of a tied shawl with a high collar, a pink long sleeve shirt, and a gown and black stockings with pink ballerina shoes. This brash girls name was Mine, right now she lifted up an enormous sniper-rifle blaster weapon that was way bigger than her entire 155 cm (5'1") petite body frame. She aimed her weapon right Takashi.
"What is the fuck going on?! Everything is happening so fast! Brother what are you doing...!" Tatsumi is a loss of words right now, he looks beyond shocked about everything that has happened so far. His brother had easily slain about 13 Empire Guard Soldiers in just a matter of seconds, he slaughtered them without any mercy whatsoever, Tatsumi had never seen his brother unleash Dragon-Force until now.
"I said out my way!" Takashi thunders out as he pushes back Akame, her whole body is fiercely catapulted across the forest trees scattered around the mansion garden.
"He is strong enough to push Akame's body just like a rag-doll!?" Leone gritted her teeth, "You bastard!" She sprints forward at insane-speed, she looked like a wild lioness about to pounce Takashi.
Takashi barely moves an inch and flash-steps behind Leone.
'He's hella fast!' Leone's golden eyes widen as she saw Takashi's body literally vanish into thin air.
"How the hell do you that!?-" Before Leone can say another word, Takashi did an upper-cut punch right below Leone's stomach knocking the air right out of her mouth.
"GAAAAAH!" Even for a strong woman like Leone who endures a Teigu which transform her body into a half-primal lion which her body takes on animal-like characteristics of a lion such as lion ears, lion tail, and fur covering some parts of her skin, she had felt such an extreme amount of pain from Takashi's punch.
She enhances her speed, reflexes, strength, and regeneration by using her Teigu which was in the form of a belt that had hexagon steel shaped emblem in the middle, perhaps this was the source of her Teigu's powers. But even with her strong regeneration abilities, Takashi's punch had really left a mark on her stomach, in fact, her stomach had a large burn mark.
"Leone!" A young man with long green hair releases the same thread of he used to suspend the assassins in mid-air from his finger-tips and shots out the threads toward Takashi.
Takashi swiftly slices through the threads without any fear in his dark red glowing eyes, his katana was so sharp that it made a visible soundwave as slashed away at the threads in one quick session of skillful sword slashes.
"How is that possible!? Nothing can cut through my threads of death!" The green-haired assassin gritted his teeth, he was astounded by such a powerful weapon that Takashi was wielding.
Tatsumi's mind is blown away as Takashi's fights off the band of highly skilled of assassins. He never knew just how skilled a swordsman and warrior Takashi was!
The last person in Takashi's way was the armor-giant who was wielding a large spear that had a red arrow-head at the tip. It kind of looked like a trident actually.
"Your tyranny stops now! I won't let you harm my comrades any longer!" The armor-knight zooms forward at an insane speed that was almost on the same level of Takashi's speed. He points his spear ahead and aims to kill Takashi. But the battle was already over.
With his Dragon-Force Power's Takashi was able to slice through the assassins thick indestructible silver armor and actually shatter it!
*Slash! Wham!* The sound of Takashi's katana slicing through armor echoed across the darkened forest.
Blood splutters out of the assassin helmet as his body is flung into a nearby tree, his whole armor was now being consumed by black flames.
'Such amazing power!' The armored giant muscular assassin thought to himself with a sparkle in his eyes.
Takashi finally makes his way towards the wooden shack were his family scent was. Had to be fast, he used up all of his Dragon-Force to increase his Flash-Speed,
"Not so fast!" Mine is front of Takashi.
Takashi just flicks her nose and see his sent flying the air, "Aaaaaah! HOW DARE YOU! I will freaking kill you!" She angrily screams.
Takashi quickly opens the wooden shack and what he saw drove him wild. His Primordial Dragon instinct was on overdrive. Every single shred of sanisty was consumed by his darkness curse flames, Ryuyami was roaring to the gods of this world. Takashi dragon soul was roaring with rage that would slay all. There were countless tortured bloody human bodies hanging on the wall of the shack, these were the bodies of countless wondering villagers who were slaughtered and tortured by Aria and her fucked up family. Some other humans were locked up in cages and covered in dried blood. It was a disgusting and a horrific sight to behold. Takashi had never anything like this in life, not even his past world could be compared to this insanity in front of his very eyes.
"Hurry! Hide the evidence destroy it all!" Aria's father lifts up a match, Takashi quickly slices off his arms.
"AAAAAAH!" He falls to the floor and screams to the top of his lungs.
"FATHER! YOU FILTHY MONSTER!" Aria screams out as her eyes widen in a crazy way. She was caught in her own sick acts.
"Shut the fuck up," In a flash Takashi angrily grabs Aria her frail neck and lifts up her tiny sinister body in the air, her legs kick wildly as struggles for her dear life.
Takashi then punches open a cage and releases Sayo and Ieysau from they prions. Ieysau was in way worse condition than Sayo, whose beautiful raven was torn out from her scalp. She and Ieysau looked like a bloody mess, they had been tortured and beaten countless times. Takashi was a second too late. As Ieysau was taking his last breath, but Sayo was still holding for dear life.
"T-Takashi," She coughs out blood and raises her hands towards Takashi's cheeks to touch him. To if it really was him. To see if he and Tatsumi had come to save her and Ieysau from the hell they had endured.
In a matter of minutes Tatsumi and the rest of Night Raid arrive at the wooden shack, their target was solely Aria and her family, but Takashi had clearly interfered with their assassination mission.
"Take a look inside kid and tell me what you see, " Leone said to Tatsumi as she gripped her stomach, 'Now I remember these guys they were the same ones who I stole from earlier today at the pub! And this kids brother the more handsome and muscular one beat the living crap out of me! I am going to make him pay!' Leone growled to herself.
"Where is that assassin who interfere with our mission? He must be taken down, he knows about our fighting style, and we don't know if he works for a secret organization formed from the Empire," Akame said as she spits out blood, she really was hit hard by Takashi.
"No. He is just a village warrior, " Leone said with a wide bloody smirk.
Tatsumi slowly opens the door and sees Takashi carrying Sayo's bloody body in his hands in a protective way.
"No... It can't be! What the fuck is wrong with this world!" Tatsumi starts crying as he clenched his fist.
"Take her. She is barely alive, I was almost too late," Takashi says without any emotion as his red eyes looked 'dead' and motionless. He then averted his attention Aria and her pudgy father who were both tied up.
"What about Ieysau..." Tatsumi is shaking furiously with rage and sorrow He was angered at himself for letting this happen.
Takashi doesn't answer, Ieysau is laying on his back and is reaching his hands towards the skies.
"R-remember that promise we made as kids. That we would become legends..." Ieysau coughs out more blood as he starts crying.
"I want you guys to the carry out your promises without me... I want you guys to become the legends you were always meant to be!" He coughs louder and louder and vomits out blood.
Takashi tightly grips Ieysau hands, he is almost crying, he had never cried in his life, but this moment filled him with rage he had never know before. The rage to avenge his fallen brother.
The poison/virus was spreading deeper throughout Ieysau's vein and bloodstreams. Ieysau was the unfortunate one who drank the poisoned tea and ate virus-infected food that was given to him by Aria and her family. Her family specialized in creating all types of deadly poisons and viruses to test out on the homeless unsuspecting villagers who traveled to the Empire. They saved their lives from the cold streets and in returned they tortured and killed them for their own sick entertainment.
"He doesn't have much time. These sick bastards must have been doing this for years without anyone suspecting a thing," Leone said as she leaned back against a forest tree. "They probably do this sort of sick stuff to entertain themselves, knowing that no one will lift a damn finger for these poor souls since they have so much money to cover up their tracks, it makes me sick to my stomach," She snarled as she stared down Aria who was now tied up in metal chains by Takashi.
"OF COURSE WE HAVE TO DO THIS! WE WOULDN'T WE! THIS TRASH IS NOTHING BUT LIVESTOCK FOR US TO DO WHAT WE SEE FIT! THAT BITCH OVER THIER DOESNT EVEN DESERVE TO HAVE SUCH BEAUTIFUL HAIR! I SHOULD HAVE KILLED THAT BITCH! AT LEAST I HAD A LITTLE FUN WITH HER! ALL OF YOU RATS SHOULD JUST FUCKING DIE! NO ONE WILL FUCKING CARE ABOUT YOU WHEN YOU ARE DEAD! NO ONE!!!" Aria horrendously screams to the top of lungs, she looked like an ugly beast with her blue eyes widen like the eyes of a demon, she looked insane.
"Shut your fucking mouth!" Takashi quickly slashes off Aria's tongue, 'AAAAAAAAAAH!!!" Fresh blood splatters all over Takashi's face as her tongue falls off.
"Thank you Takashi, I needed to see that, Goodbye Takashi and Tatsumi," Ieysau grips Takashi's hands and says his final words as he eyes turn 'cold'.
Takashi places his fingers over Ieysau's eyes and then closes his eyes in a warrior way. He will always be an assassin, but for his comrades, and family, he would be a warrior.
Tatsumi gritted his teeth and starts crying, Sayo is also crying as she was being held by Tatsumi.
Takashi stands up and looks over at Arai who is barely alive and squirming everywhere, his sword slash had also cut off part of her mouth.
"So what are you going to do now?" Leone said to Takashi.
Takashi walks over to Aria and her father, "You don't want to now," He cracks his knuckles. Torture of a lifetime was going to take place.
Akame stands by and sees the insane amount of carnage Takashi has done. Dead Empire Soldiers scattered everywhere in the forest, her target easily eliminated(Aria's mother), and now the last two targets belonged to the Dark Dragon Takashi, God knows what he was about to do. She didn't trust Takashi at all, and on top of that Takashi had attacked her comrades.
Akame grips the handle of Teigu Murasame and has a serious deadly look on her face.
"Don't you think he is perfect for a new recruit? He nearly kicked all asses and killed us! Um Akame...?" Leone looks over Akame, she had never seen Akame so focused in her life.
The battle just begins.
