Chapter 9: Night Raid Advances

Ryu was up in the mountains as flames surrounded him. He was sweating bullets as in a moment he seemed to be on fire as well.

Ryu: Ok, so I'm fireproof.

He began to clench his fist as the flames burned hotter and hotter.

Ryu: Once more.

He took in a breath before he let out and earth shattering roar.

Ryu: HRAAAAAAAAAGH!!!!

The flames burned hotter and hotter as they rose into the air. They burned so hot that monsters from a few kilometers seemed to melt.

Ryu: *Sigh* And that's in base form. I think to really have flames that could melt Esdeath's Ice in an Instant I have to be in a mode that makes me even stronger, maybe like Wolf mode.

He snapped his fingers causing the flames to slowly disperse. He grabbed his jacket before making his way back to the base. He kicked down the door with everyone seeing he was literally steaming.

Sheele: Training go well today?

Ryu: Yeah well I sorta can gauge the limit to the flames for now so yeah. I thought I could go a little further.

He tossed His jacket up in the air.

Chelsea: Oh, I got it.

Lubbock: Wait Chelsea don't you'll-

As soon as the jacket landed on her hands she squealed in pain dropping it and immediately running to the sink to dunk her hands in water.

Chelsea: T_T Why is it so hot?!

Leone walked over with oven mitts quickly throwing it out the window and plunging her own hands into water.

Leone: That burns even to me.

Bulat: Should we be worried in case that catches fire?

Ryu: Bro I'M liable to catch fire again before that thing.

Tatsumi: He really is. Also, your footsteps Ryu.

He looked down seeing that his steps were leaving burn marks on the floor.

Ryu: AH CRAP!!

He jumped outside before he rose his hands and a geyser of water washed down to him the the entire area was covered in steam. A second after he blasted himself with wind making his hair frizz as he walked back in seeing everyone try to hold their laughter back.

Ryu: -_- The first person to laugh is the first person I kill, got it?

TIME SKIP!!

Ryu was looking around scanning the area for powerful danger beast at night as Lubbock was by his side.

Lubbock: You sure you'll be able to snipe them all from here?

Ryu: Nah.

Lubbock: THAN WHY ARE BOTHERING?!!

Ryu: I mean I could, but you'd probably be burned alive since you're too close.

Lubbock: ... Fair point.

Ryu: Anyway, I think I'm gonna get a higher vanish point.

He jumped away and got to a higher vantage point. He took a breath before closing his eyes.

Ryu: Let's see how this move does.

He reopened his eyes as they glowed.

Ryu: Infernity Fire Star.

Flames surrounded Ryu as they shot into the air in multiple separate blast. All around him he heard terrible inhuman screams. After a moment the flames died down and so did the monster screams.

Ryu: Hmph, chumps. It wasn't even worth a spec of the effort.

He turned around and was about to walk away before he heard something crash behind him. Or someone specifically. He quickly shot a flame in the direction Lubbock was at before turning and seeing none other than Esdeath.

Ryu: Aha, what up Esdeath?

Esdeath: Ryu?

Ryu: -_- Do I look like Jack Frost or something?

Esdeath hugged him blushing.

Esdeath: With that stone cold attitude it couldn't be anyone but you!

Ryu: Yup, here we are. Finally together a- Gimme a sec.

Ryu held out his hand as a line of flames shot out and they heard a scream from behind the rock. From behind it was a man with a hood that soon fell down showing he had white hair.

Ryu: Who that?

Esdeath: The Ministers son?

Ryu: Oh, well fuck it your dead either way.

Esdeath: Wait Ryu-

She couldn't even finish as Ryu walked over to him stomping on his head causing it to explode killing him.

Ryu: Well that nuisance is taken care of.

He looked in his hand as he saw an odd device that gave off an aura.

Ryu: Ooo an Imperial Arms. I'll taking that.

He grabbed what seemed to be a compass with a Yin and Yang Symbol putting it in his pocket.

Esdeath: Well then.

Ryu: Yup. Anyway why I'm out here you might ask is cause I was getting annoyed so I came to blow off some steam.

Esdeath: I see. Ryu, might I ask just what you're Imperial Arms looks like?

Ryu: We'll it doesn't have a physical form. It's not too different from the Demon's Extract you drank.

Esdeath: Wait, did you drink the Hell Blaze Extract?

Ryu: Yup. So no matter what I'm not exactly gonna be rid of this power. So, if that's all, I think I'm gonna go. See you around.

Esdeath: Nice try Ryu, I won't let you go again that easily.

Ryu: Sorry, but that city life isn't entirely for me. I'd be bored out of my mind staying in a single place.

He turned smiling to her which made Esdeath blush.

Ryu: Plus, I pretty much have a job I intend on seeing through to the end.

Esdeath: A job?

Esdeath blinked at in the next moment Ryu was gone.

Esdeath: There aren't any tracks, did I really lose him again?!

TIME SKIP!!

Flames had disappeared around Ryu as he seemed to have his hands in a position like he held something.

Ryu: Perfect.

Shojo: That might be a nearly eighth way descent substitute for your most powerful weapon.

Ryu: Never thought I'd be able to have flames that could do that. Damn, I think Qrow would be proud. If I didn't pretty much turn on everyone.

Ryu cooled himself off before getting back to the hideout.

Ryu: Don't ask what I was doing, I think you all should know good and damn well.

Najenda: *Sigh* How's it going with the Trump Card?

Ryu: Eh, gotta work out just a few control issues, but it's ready for one on one combat. So, you give everyone the lowdown on the plan?

Bulat: Wait wait wait, you knew?

Ryu: Like hell I wouldn't. It's just be a waste of everyone's time if I came back and she explained it again.

Sheele: Huh, I guess you're not wrong.

Tatsumi: So, it was pretty crazy from over here, how hot would it have been for you?

Ryu: Pfft, try comparing it to the sun times ten and it still wouldn't be enough to describe it. There isn't a thing in the world that I can't reduce to nothing now.

His fist glowed a bit as slight heat came from it.

TIME SKIP!!

Ryu was floating high in the keeping an eye on the area Night Raid was in.

Ryu: *Sigh* Come on, just fire a shot and be done with it Mine.

As if his request was heard Mine fired a shot at the three Jaegers that came, Kurome Wave and Bol. Kurome however narrowly moved her head out of the way as Ryu facepalmed.

Ryu: One fucking job girl. That bullet was in slow motion compared to even Crescent Nightshade.

Susanoo broke through a scarecrow and hit Wave away. The rest of Night Raid minus Chelsea appeared in front of them. Kurome seemed to hold up her sword as an earthquake arrived as corpses rose from the ground along with a massive corpse of what could only be an S Class Danger Beast.

Ryu: Oh right, Yatsufasa can control corpses. And Leone's firepower isn't nearly as strong as mine so they'll probably have a tough time. Better charge up the first Trump Card.

Ryu held up his finger as a light formed. A flash in front of Sheele was all it took for her to realize what was going on.

Sheele: Everyone, be ready for extreme heat in a few moments.

Najenda: Oh, so he's already started charging that attack up?

Leone: Uh oh.

Tatsumi: What attack?

Akame: Yes I'm confused too.

Bulat: Well if it's Ryu then it's gonna be big.

Bulat pulled apart his axe and was the first to throw it towards Kurome but one of the corpses with blonde hair and a mask defected it as they went back to him. That's when the fighting began as in the air Ryu started sweating with a massive ball of flames over his finger. Sheele used Extase to blind all of them.

Sheele: 'It's a good thing Ryu gave me this back. Kinda sad he never used it though.'

Ryu seemed to focus but this time on Night Raid.

Ryu: They're the ones I can't burn with this.

Akame was trying to slice Kurome but she was blocking everything. That's when she glanced up before her mouth was agape.

Akame: Wh-Wh-What is that?!!

Kurome and Bol looked up as well as they couldn't believe their eyes. Ryu was up in the air with a giant fireball that resembled the sun.

Bol: No!! Ryu?!!!

Ryu: WHO DOES IT LOOK LIKE?!!

Bulat: WAIT DON'T THROW THAT THING!! WE'LL BE FRIED TOO!!!

Ryu: NO, IF I DON'T WANT IT TO BURN YOU GUYS IT WON'T.

Bol: THAT'S GONNA GET US FOR SURE!!!

Ryu took in a breath before looking at Akame.

Ryu: You mind?

Akame smiled before shaking her head.

Akame: Go for it.

Ryu looked back with a wild smirk.

Ryu: CRUEL SUN.

He threw the giant fireball down as the corpses already began to burn.

Kurome: IT'S TOO HOT!!!

Bol: AHHHH!!!!

As soon as it was in a few meters away from the ground the two seemed to get heat stroke. That's when it collided with the ground causing a massive crater.

Ryu: *Sigh* Target's eliminated.

Everyone seemed to look like they just had watered splashed onto them but it was sweat instead.

Tatsumi: Incursio's armor, did not do a DAMN thing against that!

Susanoo: Let's just be grateful that we're alive.

Najenda looked up seeing a sweating Ryu.

Najenda: Yes, Ryu is one terrifying individual.
