Chereads / Danganronpa: The Tale of Hifumi Yamada / Chapter 216 - Strength is King

Chapter 216 - Strength is King

After the discussion with the upper moons, Muzan and Nakime was finished I soon departed from the manor while the main body and Changling stayed back to help the rest of the Hashira unlock the power of Spiral Energy.

I on the other hand, that is Anti-Spiral Hifumi or I guess I could be Shie Yamada like before, decided to head out to personally deal with one of the Upper Moons myself, that of course is none other than Akaza himself.

"Now then, how shall I get his attention?" I rub my chin as I stand in this open field as the sun had officially set on the horizon as the night had just begun.

Thing is he doesn't have a set location he roams around as for the most part he wanders all around Japan or otherwise he is inside the Infinity Castle Training in his own area before receiving orders to head out from Muzan himself.

"Let's see, maybe I should buy a cheap one time skill, let's see, ah this will work." I said looking over the list before grabbing a one time use ability called Countrywide Lure.

Just think of your target and how they look and no matter where you are in the country you are in they will be compelled to come towards the users location, however if they have a strong enough of a will they can ignore it, though if you infuse the spell they desire to do or have with it's essence or aura the spell is more likely to work.

Thinking this I slunk back into the shadows before reappearing in a field a couple hundred miles away from where I was at and sat under a tree before I activated the skill as I unleashed the full might of my aura and conquers Haki right into said skill.

It lasted all but 10 seconds before the skill disappeared entirely, "Well, now we just have to play the waiting game." I said as I leaned back and relaxed as I waited for my quarry to take the Bait.

But I didn't need to wait long as in the distance I saw what appeared to be a Japanese style sliding door appear before opening up as Akaza walked through as the door closed behind him while he kept walking in my direction.

"So, this feeling I felt that compelled me to come to this place, it was you then? You don't smell human, but your no Demon, question is what are you?" He asked, intrigued at the sight of me as I stood up from the ground and looked towards Akaza.

"A Demon? No, because weak Demons of all kinds can be slayed by humans, Devils though Cannot." I said to him as a dark aura overcame my body before I assumed my evil devil form(See Bitch to Bitch Pt. 2 For Looks)

"A Devil? Like those of the west? Never would have imagined your kind actually existed, and you say that the Demons are your inferiors? Well I'd like to test that myself…." He said as he started to get into his stance while I tossed my upper wear to the side.

"I'm a bit surprised your not the least bit curious why I called you here, then again I don't see a reason to explain unless you prove yourself in the first place, so how about a bet." I say as I take up the Basic Stance of Renewal Taekwando by standing with my body facing sideways with my legs spread wide with my right foot closer to the direction Akaza was in as I let my arms appear to hang at my sides as I looked towards him.

"A bet? Well you have peaked my curiosity as I can sense an overwhelming strength coming from you that is nearly suffocating, so tell me, what shall we bet on?" He asked with a smile as a blue compass pattern appeared by his legs with the needle pointing towards 12 before rapidly spinning and pointing towards 12 again as it repeats itself over and over, something Akaza has never seen in his entire life as even when he faced Kokushibo and even secretly used it against Muzan, the Compass never did this before making him extremely excited at the thought of such a thrilling fight.

"Simple, whoever takes ten lethal attacks first loses this fight as neither of us will die from our attacks alone, well at least your attacks won't ever be able to kill me but if I was intending to kill you permanently mine certainly could, if you win I will tell you the information your master so desires, after all he wishes to achieve the ancient method of becoming a Devil himself with the Blue Spider Lillies does he not?" I say to which Akaza's eyes visibly widen as the entire field, roughly the size of an American football field, was covered in a black aura with black translucent walls on all sides before finally making a ceiling to encase us both.

"And if I win, well I'd rip you away from your master and take you as my own personal servant like you are to him, though at least I wouldn't see you and every other demon he has created as mere disposable tools that he can discard at any time." I say that as he squints his eyes hearing that but doesn't say anything.

"Oh and don't worry, your master can't hear your voice or even listen in on your personal thoughts, so in here you have the ability to chose to accept this bet of mine, after all Strength is King and if you followed me I could surely lead you to greater heights than ever before." I said to him which made him think for a moment as he really did feel as if he was cut off from Muzan personally while he was within this place.

Thinking that and personally not Revering Muzan like many other demons did and only saw him more as a man that gave him orders and gave him a way to gain strength for himself, he slowly nodded, "Fine then, I accept this bet." Akaza said with a nod.

"Shie Yamada." I said my name as my legs began to tense up as I prepared to begin my attack.

"Akaza." He said as well before we stared each other down for a few seconds until-

*SWOOSH!* Before Akaza could really react in less than a fraction of a second I had already appeared within mere inches from him compared to where I stood more than twenty feet away.

The ground was torn apart as an immensely powerful front kick was delivered straight to Akaza's Chest, with such strength, speed and precision in the strike it pierced through his body, leaving a hole in his upper chest where his heart would be located before he was sent skidding back from the force of it all but keeping his feet firmly in the ground as a result.

"That's one for me." I say as I see his body rapidly regenerate his chest until the damage all but became nonexistent as he looked up at me and grinned.

"This is going to be so much fun." Akaza said as he prepared all he strength to enjoy this fight to the fullest.

After all this fight had only just begun.
