Gerald, encouraged by Yupi's smile of determination, continued to hold his leg up (which was filled with fire), ready to showcase his new Flaumalia attacks to his opponent. "I'm not letting you get away so easily, Yupi Black. If you want to make it out of this cave alive… you have to go through me!" Yupi, pulling out another bottle of sake, smiled as his cigarette dropped on the bottle cap, setting the entire thing aflame. "I don't even think you're of age to be drinking alcohol, but I'll do this anyway." Throwing the bottle, he produced massive rings of fire all across the battlefield, leaving Gerald in awe. "Rings of FIRE!" he exclaimed, setting the stage for the third epic showdown. Yupi, continuing to ignite and throw multiple bottles at the amused Gerald, smiled once again, drinking one of the many bottles he possessed. "Flaumalia? Sounds like a shitty name if you ask me! Let's see what you got!" he said, throwing the now empty bottle onto the floor. Gerald, now extremely focused on his opponent, closed his eyes. "What can I infer about this guy…" he thought to himself, leaving him subconscious.
Crystal City, 1 month ago
Gerald and Kevin sighed. "Jayden, why the hell do you call us only? Samantha, Spooky, and Michael exist!" Jayden, looking at the campfire that sat before the boys, sat down on a thick, wooden log. "There's something I need to tell you guys." he said, clenching his fists slightly. The boys looked at each other, then back at their teacher. "What do you need to teach us?" Kevin asked, trying to tap into his thoughts. Jayden laughed. "The thing is, I don't think you guys would be able to master this technique. Michael's already done it, but I don't think newbies will be able to…" Kevin scoffed. "WHAT THE HELL DO YOU NEED TO TEACH U-"
"When you were sparring Gerald at the beginning of training, I found something off about your opponent. As Gerald unleashed his first dose of Flaumalia for the first time, it was followed by a blue eye glow, meaning that he could listen in onto the enemy's thoughts and attacks. I was unaware of it at first, but Gerald may have accidentally learned it…" Gerald sighed. "What is this "eye thing"?" Jayden laughed. "It's a government move that's extremely hard to master, also known as Hamu." Emerging from the log, Jayden stared at his students, then positioned the log. "Watch this."
The perplexing blue glow he had been talking about appeared in his eyes. "Since this is an inanimate object, it won't work. Now, Gerald, substitute for the log!"
Gerald walked up shyly. "What do I need to do n-"
"Fight." he said coldly. Gerald, using his Flaumalia to land a critical hit on Jayden, slid back into the forest he stood in due to the massive counter. Charging back up to Gerald, Jayden was able to anticipate his attacks seconds before they were executed, giving him a massive advantage. "At the end of your training, I expect you to have at least a slight idea of what this is and how it works. You are now dismissed." he said warmly, going back to President's Alley. Gerald and Kevin scoffed. "I'll get that move no matter what!" they both said in awe.
PRESENT
Finally opening his eyes, Gerald smiled once again. "I've gotten enough information on your attacks, and what you are going to try and not try. COME AT ME!" he exclaimed. Yupi, charging across the battlefield, continued to detonate multiple explosions from the sake and wine he held in his hands. Gerald, rushing across the cave to counter his horrifying attacks, was met with an explosive bottle attached to his white shirt. "Shit!" he exclaimed, ripping it off at the last second. "Damn it! I never thought I would have to lock in after I took down Sayeo back in Diamond City…" Despite Yupi's ongoing rampage, his massive speeds produced massive winds, which revealed all the bottles he had on himself. "If I break all of those, he'll be defenseless!" Gerald thought to himself, risking everything. Yupi, chucking another bottle at Gerald, who was in midair now, was surprised to see his counter, which was to use his new wind element to be faster and stronger. Using his net of fire, he was able to enhance his speed of his fire and himself, finally landing a hit on Yupi. "I've finally gotten closer to him!" he thought to himself, running in circles with his daring opponent standing vacant in the center. Suddenly, Yupi let out a snap of mischief. "I see.. Guda and Huda have finally snapped!" Gerald scoffed. "He's talking about those other idiots we saw back at the venue!" Yupi sighed. "I guess we have to undergo our transformations now, but I hope Ikama won't get mad…" Ripping his shirt off, he created a fiery inferno across the battlefield, almost blowing Gerald in a massive hole that sat in the cave. "What the hell is this strength!?" he thought to himself, blocking his face due to the massive impact. As the transformation finished, Gerald was left frozen. "I-Is that what I think it is…? I thought we had defeated it already…"
Across the battlefield stood Yupi, who had transformed halfway into DDLFO. Showing his normal self on one side and DDLFO on the other, Yupi continued to charge at Gerald. "Say night night, you ungrateful bitch! Be happy I'm killing you right here and now!" Gerald sighed. "Seems like I'm going to have to counter another attack!" he said, igniting more fire. Rushing across the battlefield with his wind, the fiery hands of Gerald and the odd hands of DDLFO and Yupi Black had finally touched, marking a new chapter in the battle. "I'll finally get a rematch against DDLFO, and I'll take you out along with him!" Yupi smiled. "I bet someone as puny as you would be dead in less than a second!"
