However!
Kazuichi was one step ahead of him. Without hesitation, Kazuichi charged forward in the blink of an eye, and he reappeared in front of Hinokami just before his feet landed on the ground. A grunt was heard, and Kazuichi tightened his core and pounded on Hinokami with both hands.
BAM!
A huge explosion resounded, followed by sand and earth erupting from the ground. It's as if someone stepped on the landmine, or rather, someone purposefully bombed himself.
The gust of wind carried the debris, causing everyone to flinch as they caught dirt in their eyes. They had no idea what just happened, but they were confident that Kazuichi was winning. After all, not only did he easily block Hinokami's full-power attack, but he also managed to push him back with ease.
"Leader!"
"KAZUICHI!"
