Chapitre 54: The Unwavering Guardian
As the group ascended to the 3rd floor, their faces tightened with resolve. They knew they couldn't afford to waste time, for Sayo was not the type to remain idle when her empire was under threat.
Itsuki, always the strategist, realized the urgency of the situation. With a determined look in his eyes, he addressed the team.
Itsuki: (activating his domain, eyes turning dark red) Listen up, everyone. We can't afford any delays. I'll hold them off here on the 3rd floor. You guys need to keep moving to the 4th floor. I'll provide you with cover and make sure they don't follow.
Amane, Fuji, and Izumi exchanged glances, torn between their desire to stay together and their trust in Itsuki's abilities.
Amane: (serious) Itsuki, be careful. We'll rendezvous on the 6th floor. Don't take unnecessary risks.
Fuji: (nodding) Yeah, we've got your back, Itsuki. Let's meet up on the 6th and finish this.
Izumi: (determined) We'll make sure Sayo doesn't escape.
Itsuki's eyes blazed with determination as he brandished his metal rods, ready to face the onslaught on the 3rd floor. With a nod of understanding, the trio continued their ascent to the 4th floor, leaving Itsuki to hold the line and buy them the time they needed to confront Sayo.
Itsuki's domain blazed to life, casting a crimson glow across the chaotic battlefield. With his metal rods in hand, he moved like a whirlwind, striking with precision and speed. The gangsters were caught off guard, unable to match his extraordinary skills.
Gangster 1: "Who the hell is this guy?!"
Gangster 2: "Don't just stand there, take him down!"
But Itsuki's movements were a blur, as he parried blows, countered attacks, and incapacitated his foes one after another. The gangsters' attempts to overwhelm him were in vain.
Itsuki (with a determined grin): "You'll have to do better than that."
As the battle raged on, the gangsters began to realize that they were up against a formidable opponent. Itsuki's eyes burned with intensity, reflecting his unwavering resolve to protect his comrades and bring an end to the criminal organization.
On the 4th floor, Amane, Fuji, and Izumi encountered a formidable group of gangsters. The air was thick with tension as the gangsters sized up their masked adversaries.
Fuji, confident in his abilities, took the lead. He turned to Amane and Izumi, his voice steady.
Fuji: (determined) Amane, Izumi, go on ahead. I'll handle things here. We need to reach Sayo as soon as possible.
Amane and Izumi hesitated for a moment, reluctant to leave their comrade behind, but they knew time was of the essence.
Amane: (resolute) Fuji, don't take unnecessary risks. We'll regroup on the 6th floor.
Izumi: (nodding) Yeah Sensei, we'll be waiting.
With a final nod of reassurance, Amane and Izumi continued their ascent to confront Sayo, leaving Fuji to face the gangsters on the 4th floor alone. Fuji activated his domain, ready to take on the challenge and provide his comrades with the time they needed.
Fuji, faced the gangsters on the 4th floor with a calm demeanor that belied his fearsome reputation. His aura alone sent shivers down their spines.
Gangster 1: (nervously) Is that... the Legendary Demon?
Gangster 2: (whispering) Yeah, the one who disappeared years ago. I heard he's unstoppable.
Fuji cracked his knuckles and spoke in a low, confident tone.
Fuji: (smirking) You're right; I am the Legendary Demon. But today, you'll witness the legend up close.
With lightning speed, Fuji lunged forward, unleashing a barrage of strikes and kicks that left the gangsters bewildered. He moved effortlessly through their ranks, countering their every move with precision.
Gangster 3: (frustrated) How is he so fast?
Gangster 4: (desperate) We can't take him head-on! Surround him!
The gangsters tried to encircle Fuji, but he expertly navigated through their formation. His fists and feet moved like a blur, sending gangsters crashing to the ground with each strike.
Fuji: (calmly) You're too slow.
As the battle raged on, Fuji's confidence grew. He knew he had to buy his comrades time to reach Sayo on the upper floors. With every powerful strike, he pushed the gangsters back, determined to hold his ground until Amane and Izumi were ready to join the fight on the 6th floor.
As Amane and Izumi ascended to the fifth floor, they were met with an even larger group of gangsters, ready to defend Sayo's stronghold. The tension in the air was palpable as they assessed the situation.
Izumi turned to his father, determination gleaming in his eyes.
Izumi: (firmly) Dad, I've got this. You go and confront Sayo. She won't get away with everything she did to our family, especially to Mom.
Amane understood the resolve in his son's voice and nodded.
Amane: (proudly) You've grown strong, Izumi. Be careful, and remember your training.
Izumi activated his domain, causing his eyes to glow with a fierce determination. With a swift nod to his father, he rushed into the fray, ready to face the gangsters and clear the path for Amane to reach the final floor where Sayo awaited.
Izumi, wearing his mask, entered into a fierce battle against the gangsters on the fifth floor. His movements were swift and calculated, a testament to the extensive training he had received from his father and Sensei Fuji.
Gangster 1: (mocking) Who's this masked kid? You think you can take us all on?
Izumi: (determined) You're about to find out.
With incredible agility and precision, Izumi launched a series of rapid strikes and kicks. He demonstrated a seamless blend of martial arts techniques, leaving the gangsters bewildered.
Gangster 2: (frustrated) He's too fast! We can't land a hit on him!
Izumi: (confident) That's right. You can't.
As the battle raged on, Izumi's skills and determination began to wear down the gangsters. With each defeated opponent, he moved closer to his goal of clearing the path for his father to confront Sayo on the final floor.
