Capítulo 43: vs Jugemu
(Ryoto's pov)
I walked around the town together with Jugemu, looking for Ryoto Yuuki. Unfortunately, even after one and half hours of searching, we couldn't find any clues.
Jugemu: "Damn it. Ryoto Yuuki must be one slippery bastard to hide that well."
Ryoto: "Yeah, Jugemu, sorry to say that, but I must return home."
Jugemu: "Don't worry, Otouto, I'll manage by myself. Thank you for helping, and be careful on your way home."
Ryoto: "Will do."
I was about to leave, but then I heard a familiar voice.
Risa: "Ryoto?"
Jugemu turned around and became alert, hearing the name of his target.
Jugemu: "Where!?"
Risa: "What are you doing here? I thought you went home, but as you're here, maybe you'll take me swinging as promised."
Jugemu was thinking hard about what was happening, and slowly he started connecting the dots but nearer the truth was the uglier his expression was.
Jugemu: "Otouto... what is the meaning of that. Please tell me it's not what I think it is."
He wanted to believe in me, but before I could even say anything...
Risa: "Earth to Ryoto Yuuki! Don't ignore me now."
She doomed my peace. As soon as he heard my full name, he rushed at me with his twin swords and tried to slash me. I blocked his attack with my arm infused with Haki. He was strong, matching me in strength, in fact, so when it was my arm vs. two of his. Soon he would overpower me, so I used my free hand and shot a web at his eyes, but he didn't even flinch. As that didn't work out, I used web-shooters to draw myself away from him.
Jugemu: "Blinding me won't help you in any way."
He took off his sunglasses, revealing that he didn't have any eyes. Not good. My illusions won't work on him. First, I need to get the battle somewhere else, though.
Ryoto: "Risa, we'll talk later."
I shot my web at his chest, and before he could react and I swung him as hard as I could, sending him flying, and I followed him. Halfway through my swing, he cut off the web and flew in the direction of my neighborhood.

'Why the mission is called 'family dispute'?'
Karen: "You're his younger brother, after all."
'...'
I caught up to Jugemu, and he was ready for me. He swung one of his swords horizontally, which I blocked with my arm again, but it was followed by another strike, this time from the side. I jumped over the incoming weapon. While in the air, I grabbed his head, did a flip, and got behind him, now my back facing his, while still holding his head. Using my momentum, I threw him over my head and slammed him into the ground, cracking it a little.
Jugemu swung his sword from the ground at my legs. I avoided another slash by jumping upwards, but as I was in the air, my spider-sense started going crazy as Jegemu pointed his sword at me, and I knew that it was not good. There was a small hole at the tip of the blade, so I could assume that he'd shoot me. I didn't have enough time to shoot out the web and dodge the incoming attack, so I curled into the smallest possible form and used Haki around the place I would get shot at. Just moments later, that felt like ages, a strong torrent of water hit me and sent me into a house.
Near the wall, I stopped using Haki to block water as after some distance, it weakened enough to not hurt me anymore and spread it across my back and back of my head. I couldn't cover it entirely, so it still hurt to fly through the wall. Thankfully it was a wooden wall.
Ryoto: "Sorry for barging in like that, but I've brought a guest who is very impatient."
I looked around and saw Mikan and who I assume is her friends. I frowned as it was my house I crushed into.
Ryoto: "Looks like, during round two, I need to be a little more serious."
I stood up and looked down at my clothes. My shirt was not usable anymore, so I ripped it off.
Mikan: "Ryoto!!!"
Ryoto: "What? It was in the way. Without it, I can move around more freely."
Jugemu walked into the house through the hole I created.
Jugemu: "Sorry for the intruding."
He bowed slightly to Mikan. On the other hand, I was forming a plan to take him down.
I whistled.
Ryoto: "Skipper, Rico attack, Kowalski, Private defense!"
Penguins were already in the living room and ready for my orders.
Kowalski and Private slid towards Mikan and her friends and started guiding them outside.
Private: "Please go this way for your own safety."
Sachie: "Did this penguin... just talk?"
Mikan glared at a little penguin, and he realized his mistake and covered his beak.
Skipper: "Rico!"
Skipper lifted Rico, readied him like a gun, and started shooting fish at Jugemu out of Rico's stomach. He sliced through every fish coming his way with a serious expression. While he was busy with fish, I webbed his feet to the floor. It probably looked ridiculous, but it was effective.
When the ammunition ended, Jugemu attempted to free himself from the web, but Skipper and Rico started attacking him with their martial arts. As he was defending himself, I slowly webbed him into a big cocoon, leaving only his head outside my web.
I wiped an imaginary sweat while being proud of my work.

Now that I think about it, where is Lala? I think she should be at home right now.
Ryoto: "Hey Mikan, where's Lala?"
Mikan had a vein on her forehead and had crossed arms.
Mikan: "Is it really the first thing you say after coming home?"
Ryoto: "I'm home...?
Mikan: "Explain."
Ryoto: "There isn't much to explain, really. I met the assassin, he didn't realize I was his target, but he noticed because of someone. We started fighting, and here we are."
Mikan rubbed the bridge of her nose.
Mikan: "Why did it need to happen today of all days."
Mikan turned around and saw Sachie having stars in her eyes and Mami blushing while they were looking at me.
Sachie: "So cool!"
Ryoto: "You must be Mikan's friends. Nice to meet you two. Sorry that you had to witness what happened. I didn't have full control over the situation."
Sachie: "No problem, Onii-San! It was fun to watch!"
After a short talk with the girls, they went home in high spirits. I returned to the living room to talk with Jugemu.
Ryoto: "Now, Jugemu, who paid you to kill me."
Jugemu looked confused.
Jugemu: "No one hired me to kill you."
Huh?
