____Narration____
When Ohma was declared the winner of his fight, it wasn't long before the last fight of the penultimate round was announced.
Yuji, who was alone in a rest room, finished wrapping bandages around his wrist, his eyes lingering on his completely bandaged right arm for several seconds, before he turned his attention to the screen on the wall, where Sayaka was introducing her opponent, Metsudo's own Fifth Fangs.
Some interesting things had happened since his awakening from his mindscape, some small details that weren't worth mentioning, but others that were important enough for Yuji to give up a little of his attention.
And it was one of those cases when Nogi Hideki suddenly approached him.
He told a story about how his family had been linked to the Yamashita since the early days of the Kengan battles. Nogi feared that Yuji would suffer the same fate as Yamashita Ichinoshin, who won the penultimate fight of the ancestral tournament that preceded the annihilation tournament.
But Yuji didn't listen to him.
In fact, he didn't even listen to most of the details, only paying attention to the most important points that Nogi was keen to emphasize.
Nogi believed in something like fate, which had linked him to his uncle, and later to Yuji. That's why he wanted to avoid history repeating itself at all costs.
He wanted to prevent the history between the Nogi and Yamashita clans from happening again.
But Yuji didn't care.
He didn't care about Nogi's beliefs, because he didn't believe in things like "fate", because throughout his time in this new world, he had altered what was supposed to be the "fate" of many people.
He appreciated Nogi's concern for his safety, after all, Yuji had threatened him not long ago, but he wouldn't give up because of it.
Nothing would stop him from winning his next fight.
He wasn't like his ancestors.
What's more...
He was too young to even think about dying.
"The crowd is going crazy! Just with the arrival of Kanoh Agito, they're already making the whole stand shake!"
With Sayaka's words ringing out from the screen, Yuji realized it was time, and wasted no time in quickly leaving the room.
"I thought you'd take even longer. Were you appreciating your own beauty?"
In the corridor, the girls were already waiting for him, Senju being the first to say something when he appeared in front of them.
"Oh, you're calling me handsome? That means a lot to me." And Yuji wasted no time in teasing her, causing a small blush on the girl, who just crossed her arms and started walking.
Elena laughed at this, giving Yuji a small smile as she turned to follow Senju.
Meanwhile, Kou alternated between looking at both girls walking away and Yuji for a few seconds, finally when she suddenly hugged him and turned to follow them.
Yuji laughed at this, but wasn't offended. He knew that the little girl really enjoyed Elena and Senju's company.
"Oh, it looks like you're making a collection of girls." It was Karura who suddenly commented, which made Yuji roll his eyes as he made his way down the corridor, accompanied by Kure and a Hiyama who had recently been able to stand up. "What? I already said that the patriarch of the Kure clan has the right to have many wives! I'm not criticizing!"
"Although it's inappropriate in our time, I don't disagree with the idea." Nodding as she said it, Hiyama suddenly intruded on the conversation, which caused Yuji to give her a look. "What? I'm just giving my opinion."
With a blush appearing on her cheeks, the woman looked away, Karura giving a small smile when she saw this.
But completely changing the focus of the conversation, Karura's expression suddenly hardened, her eyes turning to Yuji, who was walking with a calm expression on his face.
"Yuji, I trust you. You must have realized by now, right?"
Surprised by the girl's serious tone, Yuji turned to face her, his eyebrow rising in curiosity as he nodded in confirmation.
"But this fight will be very difficult, and I don't want our wedding to be canceled." Karura crossed her arms as she nodded at her own words, receiving no reaction from Yuji other than a roll of the eyes. "Then try to use your right arm only at crucial moments. I... I don't want you to miss his movements."
"I agree. Although Kanoh Agito is a formidable opponent, it's best that you avoid using his damaged arm as much as possible." It was Hiyama who finished with his words.
"I understand you girls." Yuji cracked a small smile, suddenly raising his right arm, which, despite being shaky, was in a much better state than it had been moments after his fight with Kuroki. "But you don't have to worry."
"The only thing you need to do is cheer for me. That's more than enough for me."
"To win, that's all I need."
.
"And now, the opponent of the king of the Kengan matches! The youngest fighter in the kengan matches! The one who's been taking down monster after monster, and shocking everyone!"
Suddenly, the audience fell silent as Sayaka began, a palpable tension building in the air.
Why is that?
Because none of them were sure who the winner would be. Yuji was badly hurt, that was for sure, but after seeing how many fighters had fought even in the face of their terrible injuries, they knew that apart from death, nothing would stop them from fighting.
Many were rooting for Metsudo's current Fangs, but they couldn't be sure that he would be the winner. Yuji had already shown himself to be more than capable, beating the one considered by many to be the pinnacle of martial arts, Kuroki Gensai.
For all of them, Yuji and Agito were equals.
They were evenly matched opponents who could evolve "infinitely" if they had enough time.
So none of them wanted to crow about victory so soon, even though most of them didn't think Yuji could do much since his arm had been severely damaged.
"He, who is the candidate to become the Sixth Fangs of Metsudo! A monster! A giant! The anomaly of god, Yuji Shinakawa!"
But to remove any doubts the audience had about his condition, Yuji put the whole arena under powerful pressure when he took a step towards the arena.
A pressure that made even the most powerful fighters in the tournament sweat with his presence.
"We're going to have a great fight."
Kanoh frowned as he turned his attention to Yuji, who was approaching with a powerful aura leaking from his body, his eyes shining as if he were a predator staring at its prey.
This irritated him, but he didn't let it show in his expression.
"Master."
