As the intense battle between Ichiro and Ryoma unfolded, Akihiko, determined to find the others, used his remaining strength to drag himself away from the epicenter of the clash. Though weakened and battered, he navigated through the damaged corridors, guided by the hope of locating his comrades.
The chaotic echoes of the ongoing battle gradually faded as Akihiko moved away from the confrontation site. He reached the area where the earlier explosion had occurred, finding remnants of the aftermath scattered around. His eyes scanned the surroundings, searching for any sign of the others.
Meanwhile, back in the heart of the battle, Ichiro continued to defy Ryoma's expectations. Ryoma, frustrated and bewildered by Ichiro's flawless movements, struggled to comprehend how Ichiro seemed to be keeping up effortlessly.
