Kiyoshi and Kuragami look around them as their about to leave the city. Everyone around them looks either confused, surprised or scared.
"Hey Kiyoshi; what's up with everyone?"
"I don't know."
They eavesdrop at a couple walking past.
"I can't believe their allies now."
"I guess that makes two traitors."
"The Kizoku need to eliminate them fast or we're all in danger."
"Two traitors? Allies? Kiyoshi do you know what they're on about."
Kiyoshi ignores Kuragami. He grabs Kuragami's arm and brings him into a bar. They look at the TV.
"Hey Kiyoshi is that Genji on the news?"
"I'm sorry to inform everyone. As most of you may know former Kizoku Yuma Nozomi has his Kizoku title stripped."
"What's happening with Yuma now? Can't they let him rest!"
"We have got the S.I.D to gather intel of his whereabouts. We have information that will shock the world. But there's nothing to be scared of as we believe Yuma Nozomi is a calm and reasonable person."
Kuragami and Kiyoshi both look at each other.
"Keep listening Kuragami."
"However, we feel like this can threat the whole world. So bare with me as I say this."
"Threat the whole world? What has Yuma gotten himself into?"
"Yuma Nozomi has formed an alliance with the Number 1 Yugai, The Strongest Thunder Disciple, Yudai!"
Kuragami is left surprised.
"Wha- What the- hell?!"
"Yuma and Yudai. Interesting. The alliance that shocked the world."
"Why would he do that Kiyoshi?! Why would my brother ally with the number one Kizoku?"
"I don't know. But I'm sure he has his reasons."
"I need to go ask him myself."
"You're not strong enough to go find him. Let's go to the woods and I'll train you."
Kuragami nods his head. They both walk out the city.
"So the first thing we're going to do is make you aware of your surroundings while you can't see."
"And how is that possible? Through hearing."
"Nope. You will be hearing ear plugs aswell."
"So how am I supposed to do it."
"It's hard to explain. When we see the vision, it's like time has slowed down for us but not for others. So we see what others see before they see it. You know what I mean?"
Kuragami is so confused.
"Yeah."
His voice doesn't sound convincing. Kiyoshi sighs.
"This will be hard."
He takes out a blindfold and earplugs out of his pocket and takes out a blindfold and ear plugs.
"Put these on. Once you put them on, I'll hit you until you dodge."
"What?"
"I'll make sure to slow myself down so that it's possible."
"Ok."
He puts the blindfold and earplugs on. As soon as he put the second ear plug on, Kiyoshi appears behind him and kicks him in the air.
Kuragami didn't move an inch. Kiyoshi jumps up and slams him to the ground.
Kuragami stands up coughing.
"Hey Kiyoshi, this is impossible."
They go on for 2 hours straight. Kuragami has made no progress.
Kuragami has his blindfold and ear plugs off.
"I just got beat up for no reason."
"Kuragami. Tell me everything it's been triggered."
"Let's see. When Jericho shot at me. When Daku was in his rage form and he kept attacking me. When Hoshiko shot the light beam at someone who ambushed me. Wait! She wasn't aiming for him!"
"Anywhere else?"
"Umm. There's this one time when Genesis, Sky and Akuma were fighting far from me. I heard a lot of explosions and then when they stopped, I got the feeling I get when I see the visions but I saw nothing. The feeling was weird."
"I see. So it triggers when you're in desperate situations."
"Yeah. I guess."
"Put the blindfold and ear plugs back on."
Kuragami puts them back on. Kiyoshi releases a lot of bloodlust. Kuragami become petrified.
Kiyoshi dashes to Kuragami and attempts to punch him. Kuragami sees the vision and barely dodges it.
Kuragami's voice is trembling. He quickly takes off the blindfold and
"Hey Kiyoshi, I think I saw it. What the hell did you do?"
"I used Meishu Kyanseru."
"I've heard of normal Kyanseru. Whats Meishu Kyanseru?"
"It's when people release their bloodlust in the form of aura. It's used to make people with low spiritual energy weaker or even make them lose conscious. People also use it on others evidently weaker than them."
"How do I use it?"
"You don't have any bloodlust, you can't. You can only use normal Kyanseru but you will learn that later on. People your age normally can't use Kyanseru."
"Ok. So should we carry on with this training?"
"Yeah. Put the blindfold and ear plugs back on."
Kuragami puts them back on. They carry on with their training for another week.
Back in Danketsu city, Sasaki, Homura and Cherry are put on another mission with Sky. A mission to collect intel on Yudai and Yuma's alliance. Hoshiko is also there.
"Sky may I ask, why is this girl here?"
"This girl has a name Sasaki."
Sasaki gives Hoshiko a mean stare.
"There were some complications with her team. All her members were out with different teams. They picked what team to be in."
Sasaki looks at Hoshiko.
"So out of every team, you picked ours?"
"You guys won the Shorai Skirmish. I only picked you because you guys are strong."
"Anyways, where are we going for our mission?"
"The abandoned island where Yudai used to reside in, Springfall Island."
"Used to?"
"We got intel that him and his team moved away. We're going there to see if we find any intel. I'm bringing you guys with me because I'll doubt we will find any strong enemies still there."
They all nod their heads and make their way to the mission.
Jericho is having a meeting with all his grunts in a building. There's a logo on one of the walls that resembles a three headed dragon. It's cold and dark outside. Jericho is sitting in front of all of them playing with his gun.
"They've been absent for about a week. Kuragami and the other guy are probably getting ready to capture me. The D.O have been looking for me for two years now."
"What do you want us to do Jericho?"
Jericho lifts his shirt up. There's a strange pattern on his stomach. The pattern is glowing yellow.
"I have about 2 weeks left in me before he takes over. We need them to leave before that happens."
Every one of his grunts get shook. One of the grunts stand up to him. He is holding a sword.
"Jericho! Don't you see the country?! It's all in construction. Our safety isn't even guaranteed when that happens. What do you expect us to do?!"
Jericho stops playing with his sword. He looks at him menacingly.
"You raise your voice at me while gripping your sword. What are your intentions?"
"My intentions are to protect everyone here. You don't care about us. Of course you don't! You're just a kid. So for everyone here.."
The grunts starts running towards him.
"I'll kill you right her-"
Jericho shoots the grunt. The light bullet goes through his heart. Everyone gasps.
Jericho blows the smoke from the tip of the gun.
"Anyone else here opposes me? I really do care about your safety. After all, your safety is my safety."
