"After you grasp these feathers, close your eyes and begin to absorb the Energy of Nature," Kuroshiro said while observing Aoki intently.
Aoki closed his eyes and tried to follow Kuroshiro's instructions. As Aoki began to feel the Energy of Nature flowing around him, he suddenly felt as if he was being sucked into total darkness.
In that darkness, two very contrasting voices could be heard.
"I hate you, I despise you!" A hoarse and hate-filled voice came from Aoki's right rear. The voice conveyed deep and painful emotions.
"I admire you, I look up to you!" From Aoki's left rear, a cheerful and admiring voice sounded. This voice felt bright and full of positive energy.
Aoki felt curious and slightly pressured by the emotional contrast he was hearing. Cautiously, Aoki turned towards the voices. As he turned, his eyes widened in shock.
Before Aoki stood two figures that looked exactly like him. The figure on Aoki's right had completely black skin and hair, radiating a dark and hateful aura. Meanwhile, on the left stood a figure very similar to Aoki, but with white skin and hair, displaying a bright and benevolent aura.
"You are a wicked person, you even look disgusting!" said the black figure in an angry tone.
"You are a good person, you even look delightful!" said the white figure in a warm tone.
"Who... are you?" Aoki asked, his voice confused and his face shocked. Although they looked exactly like him, Aoki did not feel fear or disturbance. What filled Aoki's mind was only confusion, curious about their existence and why they were in this place.
"I am you, you are me. We are one, we have always been by your side, and you have always been with us." The two figures, one in deep black and the other in bright white, answered in unison, their voices echoing in the dark space.
Aoki's eyebrows raised upon hearing that response. He had suspected as much, but still, hearing that statement directly surprised him and left him even more confused.
However, beneath it all, Aoki began to feel that there was something deeper than just an ordinary encounter. Aoki's thoughts then recalled a scene from the anime Naruto, when Naruto met his dark side during training with Killer Bee. A similar thing was now happening to Aoki.
"Is that so? If that's the case, thank you for being with me. Thank you also for being a part of me," Aoki said calmly. He approached them, his steps steady.
"I will bear all your emotions, without eliminating either of you. I will always have a good side and a bad side. You are a part of me, and I will accept you as you are."
Aoki approached the two figures, then with full confidence, he spread his arms and embraced them. Aoki's hands rested on their shoulders, as if affirming the inseparable bond between Aoki and them.
At that moment, something magical happened. The two figures began to radiate light—the black figure emitted a deep dark shimmer, while the white figure shone brightly. Slowly, they transformed into particles of light. But before they completely changed, they managed to say something.
"Thank you," they said in unison, their voices soft, almost like whispers carried by the wind.
Then, the two figures completely dissolved into particles of light, before the light floated towards Aoki, merging with his body.
Outside, Aoki's figure began to change; the hair on his left side started to turn white, while the right side remained black. Then, there was a Yin symbol on Aoki's left hand and a Yang symbol on his right hand, and when Aoki opened his eyes, his eyes also changed.
