Animated/Curious.

Imai is excited to train with you, and furthermore, he is curious to test your level of grappling, since you could become a problem if you reach the final.

.

Yuji analyzed Imai's attributes quickly, his attention turning to the young fighter, who was stretching his limbs.

"I realize you know submission techniques. How about we do some sparring on the floor?" Imai asked, an excited smile on his face.

Yuji was silent before answering. Everything was happening as he wanted it to, since he had agreed to train with Imai just to compare the level of Jiujitsu between the two. Besides, this could easily help Imai himself with his next fight, since it would refine his techniques even more.

"Very well." He agreed.

The room had the floor covered with tatami mats, which would prevent injuries, which at that moment, they did not have the luxury of accumulating.

"Hehe!" Imai smiled between small chuckles, finishing her stretches after a few seconds.

Yuji didn't need to stretch, since after a few months of training with Agito , it turned out to be useless, since no matter how he moved, none of his joints would be affected. He ended up doing the exercises simply as a way to distract himself before a fight, but he saw no need for it at that time.

"Then let's do it!" Imai exclaimed, his expression hardening almost immediately as he adhered to the common Jiujitsu stance.

Just as Yuji was about to adhere to his own stance, a word he heard in his training time in Brazil came to his mind, a small smile appearing on his lips as he looked at the young fighter.

"All right, Imai Cosmo. Let's start that 'rolas'."

Imai smiled at that, he slowly putting himself in front of Yuji. "That's what I wanted to hear."

Adam, who was looking at the two from the corner of the room, wondered with confusion. 'What the fuck are those two talking about?'

"..."

Silence hung between the two fighters, both staring at each other as they studied each other's posture. Yuji, who was watching Imai's posture with interest, couldn't help but praise him. Not many could reach his level, and that coming from Yuji was a lot, since he had trained in the country where the most powerful families when it came to BJJ lived. With a little more refinement, and Imai could surely easily become a powerhouse among fighters, since compared to monsters like Raian, Kanoh, Gaolang and Hatsumi, he was pretty average.

Imai, who was keeping his attention to any movement of Yuji, had sweat collecting on his forehead. He hadn't noticed it before because of the excitement he was feeling for having the chance to train with the boy in front of him, but now, he could clearly feel it as the nervousness began to settle in his system.

The teenager in front of him was strong, so strong that he became noticeable to anyone who saw him.

Even in his comfort zone, which was Jiu-Jitsu, he was no longer confident that he could beat him.

'Stop thinking about it, Imai!' He scolded himself, his eyes turning to Yuji, who had an inexpressive face. 'Damn. No more long thinking, I'm going on the offensive!'

"!"

Imai stepped forward, his hand grabbing Yuji's wrist as he tried to wrap his arm around his waist, a move prevented when Yuji grabbed the back of his head and threw his back to the ground as he pulled the blond man down, knocking him out with a perfect fall.

Imai was startled by the sudden fall, reacting quickly enough to try to get up just as his back collided against the ground.

'Sutemi-Waza, techniques of sacrifice . I didn't expect a move like that so soon.' The fighter thought, his eyes narrowing as he was about to stand up. 'If he is so sure to sacrifice a safe position just to take me down, then he must have great confidence in his Jiu-jitsu .'

Getting to his knees in one swift movement, taking advantage that Yuji had his back to the ground, Imai tried to move forward to mount him, but his goal was thwarted when, with a simple tug on his wrist, Yuji brought the fighter into a closed guard position.

'So strong!' Imai complained in his mind, his teeth clenching as he tried to free his torso from the teenager's legs.

But his attempts barely had any effect against Yuji, forcing the blond to stand up to try to destabilize his stance, this working enough that Imai was able to free himself from his legs.

"!"

But with Imai unaware of this, this had turned out to be exactly what Yuji wanted, so that in the same instant he got rid of his legs, the young fighter quickly pulled his wrists and applied an arm key, Yuji's strength and weight pushing Imai's back against the ground and leaving him in a perfect position for the finish.

'Shit! He put me where he wanted me! I need to get out of this position!' Imai thought with irritation, the veins bulging in his forehead as he struggled to keep his arm from being pulled out completely.

The position was perfect, but Imai was not considered a genius on a mere whim. Even in the face of that technique, where all seemed lost, the blond was able to turn enough so that the pressure on his elbow was not problematic .

'Your ability to reason is quite impressive. Most fighters would be easily finished in your situation.' Yuji honestly praised the elder, a small smile appearing on his lips as he released Imai's arm. 'But let's see how long he can hold out.'

"!"

Imai, who felt relieved to be free of the arm wrench, barely had time to catch his breath when as he looked forward, he found himself staring into the face of Yuji, who grabbed his waist and pulled him to the ground, Imai's muscle memory working to help him react fast enough for him to roll on the ground and get rid of the boy.

'He's not giving me time to breathe!'

Yuji, who saw Imai escape with a roll, swept the distance between the two again, this time giving his opponent no time to react as he ducked and grabbed his leg, lifting the blond's body and slamming his back into the ground. Seeing himself in that situation, Imai tried to get rid of Yuji, but this proved ineffective as the boy just shrugged off his attempts and mounted on his abdomen with a smile on his lips.

"I guess that was enough, huh?" The teenager asked with a friendly tone, getting off the fighter as he offered his hand to help him up.

Imai breathed heavily, an embarrassed smile appearing on her lips as he accepted the help.

'I... I've been completely overwhelmed.' He thought in disbelief.

"You did well, you just need to work more on your physical strength." Yuji spoke, honestly advising the blond.

Imai, who listened to the boy as he caught his breath , nodded in agreement.

'Shit...'
