____Narration____
Even though Yuji was recognized as the winner of the match, he was by no means unscathed. Fractured bones, torn muscles and bruised internal organs, these were just a part of all the damage accumulated in his body.
Compared to Kuroki, it was hard to believe that the boy had actually won that battle.
Although they were both unconscious, Kuroki had suffered infinitely less damage than Yuji.
A glaring difference, considering that it only took Kuroki 30 minutes to wake up from his unconscious state.
But this was not the case for Yuji.
"It was very fortunate that the semi-finals were postponed for another two hours."
In the infirmary, Hanafusa was the one who commented while giving an injection to the arm of an unconscious Yuji.
With all the confusion caused by a crazed Setsuna, and the destruction caused by the last few fights, it was inevitable that they would need to restore the arena and neutralize the danger that was Setsuna. Because of this, Katahara chose to postpone the semi-finals by two hours.
Indirectly, this ended up helping Yuji's situation, who hadn't given a single sign that he was close to waking up.
"How's he doing, doctor?" It was Senju who, watching the doctor administer the injection, asked with a hopeful tone.
Since the boy's arrival at the infirmary, the girls hadn't left his side. Senju, Elena, Karura, Kou and a weakened Hiyama had remained at the scene the whole time, just waiting for Yuji to finally wake up so that they could congratulate him.
But the situation didn't seem to be so positive.
"He's out of danger, but I can't confirm that he'll wake up, at least not today. His organs, especially his heart, have been badly damaged by the attacks on his chest. His muscles aren't in a good state either, as some of them are ruptured, and the others are on the verge of it. His right arm was the one I needed to pay the most attention to, as much of its bone structure was damaged, and its muscles torn."
"It's a blessing that that final blow only caused a few deep cuts in his flesh." Hanafusa gave an overview of Yuji's condition, being as realistic as possible. He had no intention of giving any of the girls false hope, since Yuji's situation was not at all positive, even in the eyes of the strange doctor.
"With such pressure, I expected his arm to have exploded."
"That... Would that be possible?" Hiyama, who at this point was strong enough to sit up, asked with clear concern.
Hanafusa, hearing the question, scratched his chin as he looked thoughtful. It was true that it didn't seem possible for an arm to explode in a situation of ordinary exertion, but Yuji had not only used the secret technique of the Kure clan, he had also used the unique technique of Wakatsuki Takeshi, who could only use it because of his abnormally powerful muscles. It was a miracle that his muscles hadn't exploded from the inside out.
"In his circumstances, yes."
"..."
With the doctor's words, the atmosphere took on a slightly depressing air. Hanafusa, seeing how despondent the two women seemed to be, could only sigh as he turned to tend to other patients. He wasn't very good at consoling other people.
"How is he?"
Suddenly, a third voice sounded from the entrance to the infirmary, which caught their attention, only to see a Mokichi Robinson in a wheelchair, accompanied by Elena, Karura and Kou.
"Out of danger, but it looks like you won't be waking up today." Senju was quick to declare, her eyes turning to Yuji as the others approached.
With a sigh, Mokichi approached his apprentice, who had surpassed him by quite some time.
His eyes roamed over his injuries, immediately realizing how serious they were. This made him frown in annoyance, his eyes filling with concern for his student.
As his master, it was normal for him to be worried about the boy, after all, after so long, Mokichi no longer saw him as just his apprentice, but as a member of the family. Seeing him there, in that state, only frustrated him.
He had seen the boy in a similar state before, like after saving him from Setsuna Kiriyu, but now it seemed different.
The severity of his injuries was not at all encouraging. His arm was in such a bad state that Mokichi felt that even once it was healed, it would never be the same again.
Loss of strength, sequelae, or even the complete loss of his movement, these were some of the possibilities, which Mokichi, although he didn't like to imagine, had to accept were possible.
Even if the boy woke up, he was in no condition to fight at all, especially against someone like Kanoh Agito. Perhaps him being unconscious was a good thing, after all, there would be no chance of him killing himself, since knowing him, Mokichi knew that Yuji would go into the next match with his chin held high.
But if that were to happen, would he stop it?
No, obviously not.
He would never stand in his student's way.
So he could only pray that the boy would continue to rest for longer.
Kou, who until then had been silent, moved to the side of the bed where Yuji was sleeping, his small hand holding the boy's bandaged arm affectionately.
This brought a smile to everyone in the room, who, despite the melancholy atmosphere, were able to appreciate the cute sight of a little sister worried about her big brother.
!
But breaking the atmosphere completely, everyone turned to Yuji when they noticed the boy frowning, his eyes slowly opening to find everyone staring at him with surprised expressions.
"Ugh... What time is it?"
"Yuji!!!"
"..."
'Oh, God. Why do you do everything I ask you to do the opposite?' Closing his eyes with a smile, Mokichi wondered in his mind.'
