Everyone was surprised by the announcement considering it was an event to decide who will lead their family. An outsider to completive shouldn't be acceptable.
"I thought only Azuma could participate!?"(Homare)
"It should be fine and things will be interesting if he participate, why do you say, Boy?"(Tobera)
She looked at Yuuki thinking it was a perfect opportunity to see his potential and by chance he was up to standard then she'll accept him as part of their ability and arrange the marriage for Himari, Yachiho and Homare if possible, she and her daughter.
Tobera can't let go at the chances to have strong descendants running her family in the future. Yuuki could feel her intention and smirked then said.
"I would be a fool not to accept the chance to see how strong the Azuma truly are. I've only fought Himari and Yachiho this far."(Yuuki)
He glances at Fubuki who notices this as he is slowly overwhelmed with anticipation to have his rematch against her.
"Heh, perfect, I get the chance to beat your ass!"(Homare)
She arrogantly said that Yuuki simply shrugged her threat and Tobera was satisfied with his answer, especially liked his gaze that didn't not have a single doubt and hesitation for battle.
"Good! Let us begin!"(Tobera)
Afterwards, they head inside the pocket dimension where Fubuki, Maia, Sorako, Yumina, Takemi then Yachiho went inside the dimension while Tobera was giving her prayer.
"Please allow me to go through. Those without good reason shall not pass."(Tobera)
As she was praying, Yuuki and Himari were preparing, having decided not to use Slave for the time being as the latter wanted to see how far she'll go.
"Does that mean all our training with my slave form was an excuse to have reward?"(Yuuki)
"O-Of course not! I just thought it's fine we train for it but I decided to not rely on you and test the skill you've taught me."(Himari)
He smiled proud that she would go this far and held her hand tightly then said.
"Well then, show them that a lover of Yuuki Wakura is not weak."
Himari blush hearing this before showed a burning desire to show them his true might while Tenka and Kyouka walk up to them then said.
"Have you stopped flirting? You two are the ones only left"(Kyouka)
"Y-Yes, let's go, Yuuki."(Himari)
"Do your best, Yuuki-kun."(Tenka)
Nodded as the two stepped forward where Himari took glances to Kyouka who gave her supportive smile as if saying "I believe in you." And Himari nod then came face to face with the portal.
"Going in is easy, but returning is scary."
Himari looked at Yuuki who turned to face her and held their hands tighter then stepped inside.
"It's scary but you may go in."
Tobera smiled as she saw them get inside and finally finished praying then turned to Tenka and Kyouka.
"Let's watch what unfolds. Once the battles begin, they will be shown here. Look, they have already begun."
Tobera pointed at the misty portal that showed what was happening inside where the pocket dimension was a large island and Fubuki could be seen in the shore facing her two police sister in law, Sorako and Takemi.
"Well now, for you to tell us you'd head to the beach as you entered this space…"(Takemi)
"You're too full of yourself sister-in-law."(Sorako)
"Looking for you before defeating you would take too much time. And you two are working together aren't you? Come at me, both of you."
Fubuki calmly said while the other was not the same as they became angry and released their intent with Takemi taking out cards and Sorako charging her fist.
"This is why I can't stand the main family's arrogance…we have countermeasures for you."(Takemi)
"We'll seize the Azuma head seat for ourselves."(Sorako)
As they were about to fight, a distance away someone was observing them and Yumina was on a cliff with a bow in hand preparing to snipe Fubuki down. Meanwhile, Yachiho was running through the forest.
'Tch. To think I'd end up at the edge of this space…I have to defeat Homare before she finds Himari. Yuuki, you better not leave Yachiho and get yourself killed or else I'll kill you.'
As she was busy trying to find Himari and Yuuki, the two arrive on a cliff side overlooking the entire island. Yuuki did make an artificial dimension for training that he often uses but dislikes at times feeling as if he's taking it easy. The feeling of urgency makes the difference and mainly uses it when restorying his already lost attribute back.
"I'm surprised that something like this exists…"(Yuuki)
"The injuries you suffer will not be healed once the battle ends, so be careful."(Himari)
"I know, it's obvious but I'll keep that in mind."(Yuuki)
Himari turned to look at him then said.
"...Thank you for defending me even though you don't have to."(Himari)
She was then surprised when Yuuki tilted his head in confusion.
"Isn't it kind of obvious? You're forgetting I'm your boyfriend and lover. Though, I did my best to hold back from beating everyone since they are your family and I trust you can handle it but..."(Yuuki)
"I understand, you don't have to explain yourself."(Himari)
She smiled hearing his words and somewhat felt lucky to have him then shifted her thoughts into something else.
"Though, I'm troubled by your perversion. Don't think I didn't notice it."(Himari)
Himari went up close to Yuuki making him wryly smile and expecting a slap or something but instead had her hands wrapped around his shoulder.
"But I'll let you off because I love you."(Himari)
Yuuki chuckled, held her waist then sensed something incoming and quickly prepared themselves as the two saw someone crashing down and the smoke revealed that it was Homare.
"Found ya."(Homare)
"Homare…!"(Himari)
She gasped in shock that Homare was able to find them this quickly when they had just arrive moments ago.
"I see if I take you as a hostage."(Homare)
Homare then began to remove her jacket while Yuuki turned to Himari and said.
"Go find Yachiho and let me handle this. I'll meet you two up."
Himari didn't question him and nodded as Homare annoyed and surprised.
"What a noble yet useless sacrifice. You think you can handle me without an ability? Once I'm done with you I'll be at Himari."(Homare)
She smirked while Yuuki was stoic, removing his jacket revealing that he was wearing a black shirt that tightly hugged into his muscle and wrapped the jack on his waist.
"It'll be fine, after all…."
Yuuki narrowed his gaze while shrugging her threat then said.
"You're weak."
"You're dead!"
Homare vanished from her spot and appeared behind Yuuki trying to take his Blindspot only for him to twist body to the side.
[ Renewal Taekwondo - Hoe Grab ]
Placing his legs around her arms then striking her head causing Homare to grit her teeth, having her Brian scrambled and followed by another kick with the other leg. Where Homare felt the pain course through her head from the impact.
[ Renewal Taekwondo - Spinning Top Kick ]
The attack slammed her on the pavement producing a web of crack while Yuuki was surprised to see her stand back up despite trauma.
"Guess you're not all talk huh?"
Homare slowly recovers, gritting her teeth and feeling somewhat humiliated but refusing to accept it.
"You did better than I predicted."(Homare)
Yuuki watched as she started to type on her knees and took out a knife then appeared at Homare's hand.
"I've got sensitive skin. The amount of data I take in through my skin is huge."(Homare)
She charges at Yuuki after using her ability. Homare's ability is called "Python" she programs her movements inside her brain, and her body follows those movements exactly. She cannot change her movements once she inputs them, but her body gets strengthened during her execution.
Yuuki noticed her abnormal speed as if she was playing with a predetermined moveset. Her attack was graceful and didn't have any wasteful movement that made him smile.
[ Water Stream Rock Smashing Fist ]
Homare started to slash at him but Yuuki fluid movement allowed him to redirect her attack quite easily, surprising her and grew even more annoyed.
'Grr!'(Homare)
She growled in frustration then jumped back, distancing himself as she stared at him and said.
"Data collection complete!"(Homare)
Yuuki then noticed the change and saw her start to type again. He is still far from complete recovery but he at least can fight to win against her.
"Three turns until checkmate."
She jumped towards Yuuki and was about to hit him, but he was able to easily block it. Yuuki was shocked that Homare grabbed his hand and kicked him in the face…but.
[ Defensive Xiaoli ]
At that moment, Yuuki used a Chinese martial art called Defensive Xiaoli. It is a form of bodily control that allows the user to completely relax their body to a feather-like state, allowing them to present zero resistance to oncoming blows.
It also produces hyposthenia, which allows the user to absorb all their attacker's body weight. With that, the user can't take damage from punches, kicks or slashes, as the attack would meet no resistance from the Xiaoli users body, and the user would simply flow with the attack like a blade of grass in the wind.
The technique came from Baki where Kauk Kaioh was able to use it by taking hits from someone like Yujiro who was stronger than him and survived with a single injury.
[ Offensive Xiaoli + Renewal Taekwondo - Nigawa ]
The opposite version of it, known as Offensive Xiaoli, allows a person to put their entire body weight into their blows.
With this technique, even a punch from a weak person can become amazingly powerful. Yuuki did a backflipped kick releasing the force that he absorbed from his attack and hit her straight in the jaw.
'What!?'(Homare)
She was taken aback then felt the impact and Homare shot several feet yet manage to land on her feet quickly shifting her gaze to Yuuki.
"How!? I kicked you in the head but you kicked me!? How are you still not unconscious when I kicked you in the head!?"(Homare)
"It's because I'm strong."(Yuuki)
He smirked and irritated Homare and glared at him.
"You…"(Homare)
"But I'll admit you're strong...I like that."(Yuuki)
Homare blush a little confused why her initial irritation simply vanished and somewhat enjoyed being praised by him while Yuuki simply admitted that she was strong and fast that with his current state won't be enough.
"I think we underestimate each other too much."(Yuuki)
"Where are you going with this?"(Homare)
"Why don't we go all out now? What do you say?"(Yuuki)
"Whatever you say."(Homare)
"Let's enjoy this!"(Yuuki)
Yuuki gave a soft and tender smile that smitten the punk girl quite easily and decided to ask his name.
"Hey, tell me your name so I can remember it once I beat you."
"Didn't I introduce myself earlier, it's Yuuki Wakura?"(Yuuki)
"Homare Azuma."(Homare)
He nodded, taking a deep breath where Homare felt her skin crawl and tense up witnessing him exhale a steam of his breath. She was taken aback when his eyes changed, reverting in color turning the sclera into black entering his [ Ultra Instinct ] then Yuuki hands began to darken with segment lines glowing
[ Asura Armament ]
Yuuki couldn't use [ Limit removal ] or it would damage his body therefore decided to use his Asura form where he released a massive energy where his like calm flowing storm about to erupt. Meanwhile during they're fight, Fubuki was standing before the defeated Sorako and Takemi as they squirmed in pain.
"This fight is over."(Fubuki)
'Not yet. Once the sniper is ready.'(Sorako)
Sorako refused to give up glancing at Yumina only to hear an unknown voice arrive.
"I've finished over there, too."
She was shocked to find Yumina defeated and unconscious being dropped by Maia.
"....!?"(Sorako)
"They were pointless. Because I am growing even now."(Fubuki)
She looked down at them as if their effort was trivial in the end and Sorako stared at her and thought.
'She was already a cut above when she was little and she's still growing? We can't…beat her.'(Sorako)
Sorako lost hope looking at Fubuki like an enormous tower that they would never be able to reach.
"Homare is next."(Maia)
At that moment they sense a surge of power that sends chills down their spine as Fubuki shifts her gaze at the direction that acted as a signal for them to follow.
"What's this...?"(Maia)
She was surprised that someone else was able to release such potent power beside her mother while Fubuki became interested in the one producing such power.
"They're going all out now."(Fubuki)
