(3RD POV)

It has been half an hour since Senji left the warehouse after he gave Misha an advice, he continued his way back out of the slum district, having had enough of the place. He decided to return back to the hermitage, probably buy some snacks for the brats on the way back.

However, before he had even left the deeper districts of the slums, he began to hear commotions from faraway along with the distant sound of screams and growing explosions. Senji sighed, not knowing how it was so difficult to just go home.

It wasn't even a minute later before he found himself surrounded by Reunion grunts and members with them believing him to be another resident of Lungmen and a target for easy picking.

Senji sighed, back to slicing and dicing again.

-----------------------------------------

Later on, when the streets were filled with red from top to bottom, Senji stood in the middle of the carnage uncaringly. He flicked the remaining blood from the blade of his katana before sheathing it, he looked up as the sounds of explosions has gotten progressively louder and closer.

He sighed again, he should really stop butting his nose into other people's business but knowing the nature of this vessel of his, it won't stay put. Well, more like his back will start getting tingly before he complies with the lingering thoughts behind his mind.

Senji trudged to the origin of the explosions, as he neared the area, the sound of fighting also became more clear. Worse of all, if he decides to get involved with the fight, the L.G.D or Reunion will begin targeting him, assuming they think they can apprehend him.

Just as Senji was walking his way to the area, the wall on his side exploded into chunks before someone walked out from the destroyed hole accompanied by a smaller figure. 

As the dust settled down, one of the two figures was recognized as Misha and the other one was a Sarkaz girl dressed in casual clothing, in her hand was a bomb detonator.

"Did they seriously already failed their task?" Senji thought, bewildered and disappointed and irritated.

"Oh? I remember you, the person who managed to block Talulah's flames and cleave the Catastrophe apart." The Sarkaz remarked.

"Really, where were you? Hiding somewhere like a cockroach?" Senji rebuked, causing the Sarkaz girl's smile become more strained.

"As much as I want to talk to the person who ruined our little parade in Chernobog, I got something to deliver." The Sarkaz replied.

"Sorry, brat but I was under the impression that the girl known as Misha was suppose to be with Rhodes Island, not Reunion." Senji stated.

"Ah... so you're with them." The girl noted but the blacksmith scoffed.

"If I was with them then we won't be talking right now, but we weren't be talking later." Senji declared before Yamato materialized in his hand.

"Is that so? Well, hope you like explosions~" The Sarkaz grinned before chucking a bomb towards Senji in a flash.

"Too slow." Said Senji as he immediately sliced the bomb, resulting an explosion behind him but the girl took that chance to try and leave.

Keyword: try.

Before the Sarkaz girl could make an adequate distance between her and Senji, the latter instantly materialized a small dagger before throwing it towards her with deadly accuracy. The projectile managed to nick the girl's forearm which was carrying an unconscious Misha, causing her to let go.

The blacksmith had already closed in the distance between him and the bomb addicted girl, unsheathing Yamato before trying to cut her down. The Sarkaz immediately threw another bomb at Senji despite the likely close proximity of explosion it's going to make.

As the bomb blew up, Misha's body was fortunately shielded by Senji's extremely durable haori as he threw it onto the Ursus. The explosion pushed the two fighters apart from each other and Senji gazed at the Sarkaz girl with simple annoyance at the constant explosions.

"You're more annoying than I thought, just like a cockroach." Senji taunted.

"Well, at least I'm more productive than one~" The girl rebuked, unaffected by the taunt... right?

"Whatever, what's your plans with Misha here?" Senji demanded, now fully aware that he's involving himself in deep shit.

Now he feels like it's going to come bite him in the ass later on in the future.

"Now, that's something you won't know unless you join Reunion, but I'm sure Talulah's willing to overlook that incident in Chernobog... what say you?" The Sarkaz girl offered.

"Daga kotawaru!" Senji answered in an instant, replying in his old tongue.

"A shame, but I suppose I can have some fun." The girl said, holding out more bombs.

"More bombs, where the hell does she keep them?" The blacksmith questioned to himself.

"Bombs away!" The Sarkaz shouted, raining more explosives upon Senji.

"Goddamn annoying..." He grumbled in irritation before grabbing Misha and began slicing apart the bombs, leaping away just as they exploded.

"Screw this." He muttered before quickly dropping Misha behind a corner of a building before rushing back into the chaos.

However, due to the smokes and dust obscuring everything around Senji, he didn't realize a land mine was planted under his foot until he was covered in flames and more explosions. As the smoke settled aside for the Sarkaz to see the results, Senji's face was more than annoyed now.

"You... what's your name?" He questioned.

"Name? Well, tough luck, I don't have one but you can call me W." The said Reunion ringleader answered back.

"Is that so..? Then W, do me a favor..." Senji began as he walked forward with his feet stomping into the ground.

She blinks.

He disappeared.

W's instincts began screaming at her to run, retreat while she still can before she is dragged into an execution. Now, her instincts are screaming at her to jump to the side, she looked up before seeing Senji looking at her with pure bloodlust mixed with wrath.

"...die." He ended in a deadly tone.

This is what happens when someone pisses off the person known as Senji Muramasa. 

Just as W leapt away from the strike zone, a huge explosion of debris and dust was created and the concrete ground was split with a gigantic gash in the middle. The ringleader's eyes widened as she grinned nervously, trying to comprehend what just happened.

She obviously had a taste of Senji's powers back at Chernobog but that was when he was directing it at the entirety of Reunion, but now that he's completely focused on her alone. She's definitely dead unless she takes the right steps in counteracting.

She blinks again from the settling dust, bad mistake.

Senji disappears again and she just barely managed to dodge a slash intended to take her head off. Her abdomen was later kicked violently, causing her to spit out saliva mixed with some blood as she flew back several feet.

However, W managed to drop another bomb under Senji, this one designed to completely obliterate a person until nothing remains. An explosion occurred yet Senji appeared fine with little to no scratches but the expression on his face is worsening, becoming more pissed.

 "Oh shit-" She barely had enough time to curse before her vision was shook violently as an intense pain shot through her skull.

W landed harshly on the ground before seeing Senji raise his foot and drove it down right towards her face, the ringleader quickly rolled away just to see the blacksmith's foot dig into the concrete.

Senji was relentless as he continued slashing at W, completely intending to cut her down into pieces yet the Sarkaz experiences allowed her some leverage over the fight. However, this "fight" is more like an one-sided massacre with Senji being the hunter and W the prey.

"Fighting's completely out of the question, bargaining is probably impossible, escaping... he won't let me." W rapidly thought as Senji dashed forward with unimaginable speed.

W immediately threw another bomb at the blacksmith who intercepted it by slicing it into two bits again, allowing the explosion behind him to propel his body forward. Failing to realize the flaw of her actions, W was soon beat down into the ground with Senji standing over her with his katana pointed at her throat.

"Any last words?" He asked as W remained silent in disbelief.

"No? Fine, have fun in hell." Senji stated before raising his sword but pausing as a familiar voice shouted.

"Wait!" Misha yelled before stopping in front of the blacksmith.

"...What are you doing?" He demanded, blade still raised.

"I need her... I need her to take me to my brother, he works with Reunion and I want to know why he's hurting people!" Misha reasoned with him.

"...You can ask him once the L.G.D captures him, now out of my way." Senji replied back coldly.

"Please, I need to talk to him now..! All this mess started with me, I don't know why but it could be connected to my father!" Misha rebuked again.

"I... I want to reason with my brother, I don't want him to hurt anymore people so please let her lead me to him."

"..." Senji stayed silent at that.

"I'm begging you..." Misha pleaded.

"...Don't regret your decision, or make me regret mine." Senji said, sheathing his blade, allowing W to silently breathe in relief.

"The next time we meet, I'll be taking you to the L.G.D myself." He added as Misha nodded.

"I understand." She stated as Senji walked off before stopping one last time.

"If you cannot change your brother, no one can." He said one last time before disappearing from the girls' sights.
