The time for the second phase had arrived, all the clashes had been defined and so everyone's preparations began, after all, the one who stood out was creating his way towards the top of the Dan.
Henza: -I can't wait for our battle. - Smiling with fang-shaped teeth out.
Haru: -Me too. – Haru didn't know why, but he felt that he had to fight him, it wasn't just a fight or revenge for him having beaten him the night Wawa and Miley were taken, it was something that went deeper at least that was what he felt.
Juji: -Haru...
Marin: -This can't be good...soon they will face each other. – She thought. -I hope Ohmoi is having some result. - looking up. -things are going to get tense sooner than expected.
In the upper part, Ohmoi was literally crawling between the dirt and the woods that supported the roof of the place where the tournament was taking place.
Ohmoi: -Soon now these Dan Kyo appeared... - watching two Dan Kyo talking in the corridor. -I have to know where they are soon... - heading towards an air vent.
-Very well, we will start the second phase and I, Izuki Sabito will be the general responsible judge for it. – a man wearing a white hakama with gray keigo-gai introduces himself. -as everyone knows the second phase marks the beginning of the individual battles and in this phase 5 fights will take place at the same time on 5 different mats, at the end of this phase those who qualified will go to another area where phase 3 takes place with those who passed, Having said that, let's go to the names of those fighting in round number 1!
Izuki Sabito was a member of house 1 like the others responsible for each phase of the tournament, thus the functions of the said strongest house were designated.
Izuki Sabito: -Here are the names! – reading a paper. -Tosin Fubuki x Danzo Tuya, Zaradora Gaiga x Makoto Shidai, Gugen Jyumaro x Sasame Nora, Amina Rei x Lilan Yuki and finally...
Kakui: -It is now. – punching his own hand.
Emma: -the second phase. - adjusting the glasses on his face.
Gyu: -Let's go with everything. – Taking a deep breath
Juji: -We'll do our best. - smiling.
Haru: -... – leaving their side.
Marin: -this boy...
Izuki Sabito: -Haru Ooto x Henza Heiz.
Hens: -... – smiling as he jumped to the place of the fight.
-Hens don't do anything stupid. – a girl approaches to see the fight.
Juji: -Haru! – looking to the side, but Haru was already going down to the place of the fight.
Gyu: -he's already downstairs
-Kurada Sensei's son
-The wonder boy.
-Will we see the power of royalty?
Emma: -What are these guys talking about? Emma thought.
Kakui: -Damn it! I should be the first to fight! - screaming loudly.
Marin: -silence! – with an imposing presence.
Kakui: -I just said... - cringing.
Izuki Sabito: -Very well, everyone here. - looking at the face of each one there. -Kendo rules of honor must be followed here, so I wish you all a good fight, may Zanzin bless you, begin!
Henza: - Honestly...
Haru: -Henza...
-You say every thing Fuyukami. - smiling shyly.
Fuyukami: -You know how I fell for you, don't you?
Ohmoi: -Won't this couple ever go away?! – looking down where the Dan Kyo were talking. -I have to find another way out of here. – trying to open the air outlet of the place but it was very well locked.
Henza: -real shinai! – picking up the shinai that was on her waist.
Haru: -real shinai! – pointing the shinai upwards.
The 10 Kenshi start calling their real shinais at once, the second phase clashes were starting.
Henza: -scratch Bakeneko! – Henza's shinai changes and with that the handle becomes white with a cat's face on it, the blade turns black with cat claw scratches all over it.
Henza's hakama has cat paws all over it, the Keiko Gi had a standing feline in Japanese clothing drawn on the back.
Haru: -listen to my sound, Kyosento! – Haru's shinai changes to one with a black handle with bat wings, the blade turns black with sound waves engraved on it.
Haru's hakama is black with white sound waves, the Keiko Gi had a bat silhouette on the back.
Henza: -Bat is...let's see if you can with my neko here. – staying in your posture. -Kamae no neko: -Cat jump!
At that moment Henza starts jumping at high speed like a cat, he darts from one corner to another, it's almost impossible to see by his speed.
-Has she already started using this move?
-It seems that Henza is not playing around, in Lolita.
Lolita: -My brother must have gone crazy, Shino.
Lolita Heiz is a girl with long blonde hair, skin white as the moon and a beautiful face, breasts and white eyes, wears a hakama black with gray, around her waist a sash that indicates she is from the same house as Henza and her younger sister. old.
Shino Toma is a boy with short black hair spiky to the side, brown skin, mossy green eyes, has a strong bearing even though he is thin, wears a black and gray hakama with two blades forming an x on Keiko Gi's back.
Haru: -What an absurd speed... - Trying to see where he goes with each jump
Kakui: -Haru is in bad shape.
Juji: -What are you talking about?
Emma: -If Henza works like a cat, he's just stalking his prey.
Kakui: -To then attack her with a straight blow.
Gyu: -That makes sense.
Juji: -Haru.
Haru: -I can't just stare. – staying in your posture. -kamae no Ooto: wave of sound!
Haru creates a shock wave using his shinai to try and stop Henza, but that's what he wanted.
Henza: -Now yes! – changing the direction of the jump. -my prey!
Henza is faster than Haru and dodges the blow already going for the attack, an attack that catches Haru off guard hitting him full on the left arm causing him to be thrown against the mat.
Haru: -He tricked me... - Panting.
Henza: -ah what is it? Was that all he had? I thought that old man had taught him something worthwhile, but it's nowhere near the pain I'll cause him because of him.
Haru: -What are you talking about? – looking at Henza while trying to stop the blood that runs down his arm due to the cut before.
Henza: -You don't even know that. – pointing the shinai at Haru. - cat jump! - Henza starts jumping at high speed again. -I'll finish you off with the next blow.
Haru: -Concentrate on the sound, Haru. - closing your eyes. -if it changes direction constantly, my eyes can't follow it but my hearing can.
Henza: -Did you decide to turn yourself in? Not before taking a beating from me! – changing your posture from kamae -killer cat claws!
Haru: -I heard! – stays in the posture of his kamae. -ecositematization!
Haru creates a wave of echoes that hit Henza making him stop his attack in the air for a second.
Henza: -What?
Haru: -echoing sound wave!
Henza: -one posture within another? No, he changed the attack sound. – being hit by Haru's blow, throwing him to the other side of the mat.
Shino: -The Henza was hit. – Openmouthed.
Lolita: -little brother. – with a tense face.
Kakui: -good Haru! - screaming loudly.
Emma: -he really did it. - adjusting glasses.
Juji: -Haru. - happy.
Gyu: -That was amazing. – with shining eyes.
Marin: -Shut up you idiots, it's just begun. - seeing Henza get up.
Henza: -tsk, how it irritates me! - Wiping the blood off her face. -Even though I am... that's enough taking it easy.
Haru: -an...
Henza begins to release a large wave of hokkoshin at the site, making everyone there feel his fury through the Hokkoshin signature.
Henza: -kamae no Neko: leap of the man-killing cat. - jumping from side to side
Henza's eyes change, now they were feline eyes but they were still white.
Haru: -I have to pick it up again. – closing his eyes. - wave of echoes!
Henza: -not this time – Henza changes direction in the air when he sees that Haru's blow was heading towards him.
Henza, when changing direction in the air, manages to hit Haru right in the middle of the chest, which spills blood everywhere.
Haru: -aaaaaaaaaaaaaaah! – feeling the cut of Henza's shinai.
Juji: -Haru...
Lolita: -Henza...
Shino: -This is the Henza I know. - smiling.
Henza: -What did you think? - jumping up and down.
Haru: -How did you change the direction in the air? - with his hand on his chest.
Henza: -this is the movement of my bakeneko, a yokai cat, even in the air it can jump using its light paws.
Haru: -What a pain... – With strong chest pains.
Henza: - pain? You don't know what this is, your pain doesn't match mine. – head down. -I'll make you feel the pain you feel because of that old man, your sensei.
Haru: -this is the second time you've said that...why? – looking at Henza. -If you have something to say, say it at once.
Henza: -Do you really want to know? it's because your sensei is...
Wawamaru: -Kuradinha how is life going? – grinning.
Kurada: -don't call me that you idiot, we're not in the academy anymore, and I'm a Dan Kyoshi, so you owe me respect. – crossing his arms.
Wawamaru: -OK, OK, you can't even play with an old friend.
Kurada: -don't mix things up.
Wawamaru: -Speaking of colleagues, how is Leyde? – leaning his shoulder against the bars.
Kurada: -She's fine, being kept away from you on a floor below, trapped by chains since she's more impulsive than you. – looking at Wawa.
Wawa: -I'm glad she's okay, I feel relieved... - looking at Kurada with one eye closed. -But that's not why you're here, is it?
Kurada: -No, I had to ask...why did you involve that boy in this?
Wawa: -So those three came, didn't they?
Kurada: -Yes, they are in the middle of the tournament right now.
Wawa: -In the middle of the tournament?
Kurada: -Yes, Marin is with them.
Wawa: -Marin Garden helping? Wow, that's what's new, knowing her, she must have cursed me in many different ways when she found out I'm here and even brought Leyde with me.
Kurada: -Don't run away from my question.
Wawa: -um, do you want to know why you put Haru in this? – Looking at Kurada seriously. -it's simple was the last request of his father, Yattamaru Sensei.
Henza: -...that damn thing is my grandfather too. – with tremendous hatred in his voice. -because of him, my family lost the name maru, that damn thing betrayed my father, he left everything, everything... to go to his world... and now look at this, you're here, and you don't even know anything about him. ..hahha, who knew..he's still one hell of a motherfucker.
Haru: -What? – the heart stops beating for a shelf. -That's a lie, my grandfather would never do that.
Lolita: -brother...
Shino: -Now I know why the Hokkoshin signature is so similar.
Henza: -never? What he does most is lie, and the proof of that is that you didn't even know of our existence, or do you think that nobody here noticed that you are from the real world? – with your hands up. -You fool, everyone here already knows that you are from the real world.
Teacher: -Marin?
Marin: -That's true... As I said before, the hokkoshin signature is the ultimate way to discover someone just by their energy.
Emma: -So... why did you tell us that we had to stay hidden?
Marin: -it was the only way for you not to freak out with the imminent danger about you.
Juji: -That was the only way.
Gyu: -Yes...
Kakui: -I knew those looks at us weren't just because we were outsiders.
Emma: -What was it, was it, now we have to worry about Haru.
Henza: -Still don't believe? – stepping on Haru.
Haru: -you're lying – taking Henza's foot off his chest.
Henza: -look at me, my eyes are white like his, aren't they? – showing the white eye after being thrown back.
Haru: -No...it's because of the Glaucoma, he and my father... - being interrupted.
Henza: -It's not a disease of your world! It's my family's Maru brand, white eyes. - yelling.
Haru: -That's not possible, why are you lying? – gets angry and attacks Henza who dodges.
Kakui: -What is he talking about? – looking at Emma.
Emma: -I don't know either. – looking at Kakui.
Juji: -Master Marin?
Marin: -She's telling the truth.
Gyu: -master...
Marin: -Henza is Haru's cousin, both are Marus.
-what?! - they all shout.
Haru: -I don't believe you... – with tears welling up in her eyes.
Henza: -No? So I'll have to show you, second stance.
Lolita: -No Henza!
Henza: -kamae no nekomata!
Henza has her appearance changed, now her face had cat's whiskers, her arms had a cat's fur and her shinai had split into its blades.
Henza: -tail blades of nekomata, tear everything apart!
Henza strikes several blows at Haru that nothing can do in the middle of the absurd speed that the boy was demonstrating after activating his second posture, in shock by Henza's words, Haru was surrendering to each blow that he suffered from the nekomata, the demon cat of two tails.
Haru: -aaaaaaaaaa! – having every part of his body cut by Henza's shinai that had split in two.
-Haru, listen...listen Haru...you need to listen...
Haru: -Grandpa? – seeing that he was in his dojo, still in perfect condition.
