Kei-Kei, Shintawa, and Keyati had left the borders of Parados City, into the countryside. It was a calm dirt path they now walked. Not one without a stray bandit or two, but a calm one no less. That was until they saw a Global Government Military Unit.
They were engaged with a swordsman. He held a katana with white symbols akin to clouds and wind upon its blade and sheathe. He had light green hair with white eyes, pale skin, and a scar across his right eye. The trio watched the engagement with intrigue, with the exclusion of Keyati. She couldn't care less.
The apparent commander of the Global Government Unit approached in front of his men. This was clearly a low rank squadron. If not, this would be over. He spoke up...
Commander: Gasuto Kumo, you are to come with us for attempting to become Heavenly Swordsman to oppose the Global Government-
Gasuto: Shut up. I ain't hurting nobody. Yet anyhow. So fuck off.
Commander: You also fled from the Kumo Clan, allied with the Global Government! You possess the clan technique of Kami no Chikara Wind Mimicry! Thus you will be detai-
Suddenly with a flick, Gasuto sent forth a massive bellow of wind, sending a few of the soldiers back. The commander hollered for his men to fire at Gasuto, and so they unloaded the ammunition of their guns. Gasuto merely created a stronger gust to blow them away.
A smirk on his face, Gasuto kept blowing away the bullets. Kei-Kei and Shintawa watched in awe. Elemental Mimicry was still a relatively new technique for Kami no Chikara and only certain families knew how to use it. Even Keyati was slightly intrigued by the sight. Gasuto shoved his palms forward, launching bullets into those firing them.
Gasuto: You Global Government guys never learn. Just leave me alone dudes.
Commander: Never!
The commander lept forwards with his katana, however Gasuto immediately swung his. Wind built on the blade of his katana, and once it collided with the commander...
Gasuto: Cloudcutter Dissection!
A solid slash of wind cut through the commander, cutting him to pieces. The rest of the unit fled. Gasuto put his katana into the sheathe and noticed the trio watching him.
Gasuto: You three! You don't look like bad people. Well, maybe your tomboy friend over there. But anyway, you friend or nah?
Shintawa: Considering you were fighting the Global Government, friend. However-
Kei-Kei: I heard you also wanna be the Heavenly Swordsman! But that's gonna be me!
Gasuto smirked at Kei-Kei's statement, his gaze now set upon him. Noting Kei-Kei's unique appearance.
Gasuto: You, you look like half of ya's an Oni. But you seem like a nice guy and you said you have the same goal as me. But I plan on getting there first pal.
Kei-Kei: Well I'm beating you there Ga...What was his name again?
Shintawa facepalmed but looked towards Kei-Kei...
Shintawa: Gasuto.
Kei-Kei: Yeah! Gasuto!
Gasuto: Well then, till next we meet. However, if you do wanna fight me, I'll be at the Shinobi Conference at Tatakai City in a few days.
Gasuto tossed the trio an ad for the event.
Gasuto: Hope to see you. That way we can prove whose better in front of an audience!
Gasuto lept into the air, and with a gust of wind flew off into the distance. Kei-Kei, having met someone with his goal, was feeling more competitive then ever. Keyati looked at him, knowing he was going to do as Gasuto said.
Keyati: No way he's actually considering it...
Shintawa: Oh he is. Trust me.
Keyati groaned in resignation. She thought Kei-Kei was stupid already, but she couldn't defy Dasizai. She respected him too much to abandon Kei-Kei.
Keyati: Well calm the fuck down. It's in like four days. I wanna rest up in Pyuauddo Town. The spas there'll give me a break from you fuckwads.
A FEW HOURS LATER...
The trio are in Pyuauddo Town. Walking down the sidewalk towards a spa Keyati wanted to go relax at. However, as they walked past an alley they failed to notice an Oni feasting on a corpse. He saw them and noted Kei-Kei's features.
???: White hair and brown eyes? Looks a lot like-
Keyati shouted at Kei-Kei and Shintawa since they lagged behind...
Keyati: MISHIMURA, RODIN, HURRY UP!!!
Upon hearing that the Oni's eyes widened...
???: Mishimura!? Like Kachito...that bastard...he embarrassed me when I just became a damn Oni and his goddamn dick fruits are still around!?
The Oni lept towards the roof of a building and watched them. Most specifically, Kei-Kei. The Oni smiled sinisterly.
???: But I'm in the Oni Council now. And I'll snuff out the Mishimuras for what that Heavenly Dickwad did 250 years back. But first, I'll wait. Can't let too many people see me. The king would be pissed.
MEANWHILE...
Dasizai was on a bus. One headed towards Pyuauddo. He had decided to make sure Kei-Kei was safe so wanted to accompany him. He had just put someone else in charge of his business and had his Exorcism Talismans packed.
He stepped of the bus once it reached his stop and began to wonder around in search of Kei-Kei and the others. He wanted to find them sooner rather than later. In Han'ei, many things can attack people, so he made it imperative to locate them. He also wished to teach Kei-Kei proper Kami no Chikara, unlike Shintawa's "teachings"
Dasizai: Idiot Dasizai! How could your brilliant mind forget to teach Kei-Kei about Kami no Chikara!? It's so damn basic! Ugh...whatever, just gotta find him and teach...
