Chereads / A Disciples Fate / Chapter 54 - Hasake Returns

Chapter 54 - Hasake Returns

Jericho tries to struggle his way out of the ice.

Cold ice starts generating from Kuragami's wounds.

"Uh oh! I wouldn't do that if I was you Jericho. Unless you want to go, boom!"

"I forgot about that. Dammit!"

Hasake stands up.

"So here's what's gonna happen. We're going to take you in. Your going to Trinakai."

"Trinakai huh?"

"Yeah. Sadly."

"So then I might aswell be dead."

"Well not really-"

Jericho raises his aura to break out of the ice. He's successful in doing so.

"So you didn't have the heart to make me go boom."

Jericho smiles. He Light Dashes towards Hasake. Hasake takes his blades out of its holder. Jericho attempts to hit him with his gun but Hasake uses the blade to fling it out of his hand.

Hasake then jumps and kicks Jericho away. He then appears behind him and kicks him to the ground. He taps the floor with his foot. A lot of ice generates around the floor behind them.

"All this ice gives me the advantage Jericho. I mean, it's not like you had a chance to beat me anyways."

"Solar Light Flare!"

Jericho uses a technique that blinds both Hasake and Kuragami. As the flare disappears, they both realise that Jericho isn't there. He escaped.

Hasake runs up to Kuragami and grabs him.

"You okay young buck?"

"Yeah. I'm healing somehow."

"I heard you been doing very good for yourself. You know, you beat a Shadow Disciple and destroyed Raffles Circus. You won the Shorai Skirmish, destroyed the island and got higher points than your dad."

"Wow, I did all that?"

"Yeah. Once you start working for the D.O, you don't realise all the good things you have done. Not until you reflect on your achievements."

"Yeah I guess so."

"That's why you should never forget who you are and what you've done. Always remember that your Kuragami Nozomi. The Disciple who's done all these amazing things and will keep achieving."

Kuragami is healed enough to stand up. He gets back on his feet. Hasake let's him go.

"So what brings you here?"

"The S.I.D have been looking for Jericho for quite some time. We asked for you and Kiyoshi's help to suppress his gang and capture him. Although I didn't expect a Peace Hunter Captain to be here."

"A Peace Hunter Captain is here? Where?"

"Kiyoshi is fighting him. He'll be fine."

"Okay. So what are we gonna do now?"

"We're going to defeat Jericho before the monster inside him takes over."

"Monster inside him?"

"Yeah. He's a Bīsutohorudā."

"Just like Yuuto. He has a monster inside of him."

"He's also a Sugunikyōi."

"Sugunikyōi? What the hell is that?"

"Sugunikyōi are ten kids the D.O hand picked specifically. They're ten kids who in the D.O eyes, are projected to become Yugai if they carry on how they are now."

"Really. So basically, in the future they're going to be Yugai."

"Basically yeah. That's if they don't get taken down. Jericho is one of the top 5. The ones that are the most dangerous have a bounty on them."

"Cool. What's Jericho's bounty?"

"54,000,000 Sints."

Kuragami shrieks.

"54-million?! I need to go claim that right now! Let's go! What are we waiting for?!"

"Easy tiger. We need a plan."

"What plan? You can easily beat him."

"A plan for if the monster takes over Jericho. We need to make sure that everyone is safe and especially, we need to make sure to beat it."

"Okay. So, how strong is the monster?"

"Before it got spiritually sealed inside Jericho, it was known as the fastest beast to ever exist."

"No way! How the hell are we supposed to beat it then?"

"I don't know. But I'm sure it's slower than usual since it's haven't been out in years."

"So the best thing to do is make sure we can catch up with its speed."

"Yeah. But that would be hard for you."

"Why not you?"

"Cos I've kept up with the likes of people like Hayaka. I wouldn't struggle against a big ass octopus."

"So it's an octopus?"

"Yeah. With powerful Light Aura. Meaning that we're going to have to watch out for it's tentacles."

"Interesting. Well as long as I have Coating, it should be a walk in the park."

"Well I wouldn't call it that but, I forgot you had Coating. That would make things easier."

In another forest nearby them, Jericho is there struggling to walk away. He grabs onto tree after tree to keep himself standing.

Suddenly, he drops to the ground and clinches his stomach with both arms.

Powerful aura starts to slowly leak out from inside him.

"Damn Hasake. Luckily he didn't use his other ice. Otherwise I would be dead. But you stupid octopus. Stop it, please!"

He starts to scream in agony. He's in too much pain. More and more aura starts to leak out.

"I said STOP! DAMN IT!"

"It's your fault. Everything is your fault! I can't even make friends because of you. Kuragami seems like a cool guy too. But I've gone too far. We're enemies. I need to defeat him, Hasake, that stupid Kizoku, EVERYONE!"

More and more aura starts to leak out. Jericho drops to his knees.

"Well what if we do this instead. Octo, I have a proposition."

Hasake and Kuragami sense the aura.

"Hey Kuragami?"

"Yo."

"Sooner or later, you will need to learn Kyanseru."

"I keep hearing about Kyanseru. What the hell is that."

"Let's just say that it's a form of energy that we can create. And if it's strong enough, it can even transcend aura."

"Cool. So how do I use it."

"I don't think you will learn it this mission. But sometime in the future you will. It's something that skilled Nakaba learn."

"Oh. So I won't learn it for some time then."

"Yeah. Anyways, I know you sensed that aura. Let's go and see what it was."

They both start running to the direction of the aura.

Kiyoshi and Ōyama senses the aura. They pause their fight for a second.

"The beasts' aura is leaking out. This aura is amazing."

"I need to go check that out. Kuragami is fighting him!"

Kiyoshi attempts to run to the aura. However, Ōyama had different plans. Ōyama appears in front of him and punches him with his fist charged up with dark aura.

The punch sends a shockwave throughout the whole country. Blood comes out of Kiyoshi's mouth. He drops to the ground.

"I have…to go help… Kuragami."

Ōyama walks to him while he's on the ground. He puts his had in front of him. He starts charging up his aura.

A black dark aura filled ball appears in his hand.

"Dark Technique: Krig Crater."

The technique creates a humongous explosion that clears the clouds around them. Another explosion is at the fierce aura too.

Has Kiyoshi, The Lost Phoenix Feather, the number one Kizoku, been defeated by The Peace Hunter Captain Ōyama?
