Flat-Brim Samurai Chapter 45
,"IMMEDIATE MEDICAL PROCEDURES NEEDED ON THE TWO CONTENDERS" A paramedic said, taking Apollo into the medical ward in a stretcher. Apollo passed out after reaching the waiting room and paramedics were on him immediately. His injuries were intense and most of his body had melted due to the acid in the last round. Mia also had injuries but in a much more tame fashion, so she just needed a quick batch of Art: Recovery to heal her broken skull.
Apollo's body had exceeded its limits and was brought to a person who knew recovery, was a doctor and had a good amount of power. As she stepped up to the table, other people fused their power into her and looked at Apollo on the table. She had controlled the ki in her body to move to her hands as start healing him. The ki she used was for Art: Purification to remove foreign ki/matter and Art: Recovery to heal him. His organs were being repaired, his skin and muscle eventually came back to its normal state as well, but since Apollo had used up so much of his ki and physical strength he needed to rest.
4 hours later Apollo had jumped out of the hospital bed, looked at the clock noticing the time was a lot later than he had thought and he said ,"Oh shit!!!". He dodged the doctors that tried to block his way out and rushed to the arena. As he ran he sensed that his ki and his body were much stronger than before, as if he had evolved. Fortunately he didn't miss his next match and in fact was 6 matches early.
When he entered the arena, everyone was surprised to see him on account of his injuries that no longer existed. The rich people in the audience thought he was going to die but they were wrong, and they were furious. ,"I can't BELIEVE he's alive," ,"Those injuries were insane," they said with fury in their voices. They looked over at Devan and Cias with malicious intent.
Close to the end of the day Noah had his match after Apollo's match ended in his complete victory due to his opponent being weak. Noah's match was interesting… Noah and his opponent walked out. ,"THE MATCH BETWEEN THE SILENT SLICER WADE AND THE BRUTE NOAH BECKETT IS STARTING IN…" ,"3 2 1 BEGIN." Noah launched at Wade but Wade disappeared, as if his presence was completely gone in an instant using Art: Conceal Presence and Art: Invisibility. Noah looked around before getting hit on the back of the leg and the stomach. Noah, confused whilst getting angry quietly whispered ,"So that's how it is then?" He started flailing his arms around at insane speeds which sent many air pressure shockwaves through the arena, but none of them hit Wade.
After many blows he decided that something had to change so he sent out a massive wave of his ki and felt it hitting something much like echolocation. His ki hit something invisible to the naked eye and he bolted towards the direction, putting all of his physical power into punching that place. After receiving the blow, Wade was sent flying into the wall at the edge of the arena, pieces of metal bent and flew outwards. Noah followed the noise and saw a crater, he hurled out many attacks until Wade's invisibility dissipated revealing a man with welts and blood. Noah stopped and grimaced as he looked at the announcer
The announcer said ,"NOAH BECKETT IS THE WINNER!!!" Apollo looked at Noah who then looked at him ,"PREPARE MUSASHI!!!" Apollo then screamed back while smiling ,"I'LL BE WAITING!!!" Noah then went back through the tunnel.
… ,"Bye Cias," ,"See ya man," Apollo and Devan told Cias as they went their separate ways. ,"Cias, I hope you'll be coming with me?" a mysterious man said. Cias replied ,"Who's asking?" ,"That'll be none of your concern," he said, pulling out a highly enhanced gun. He aimed it towards Cias with his finger above the trigger, showing that killing Cias wasn't his first intent, although it was a possibility. Cias disappeared from sight and then reappeared grabbing the gun's barrel with his right hand as he pushed the man's wrist with his left, removing the gun from the man's hand. Cias pistol whipped the man, breaking his nose and knocking him out. As more men came out of the shadows Cias looked at all of them saying ,"Are you sure you want this?"
