So, the way I presented the previous cover for "Royal Blood", I decided to just keep the title of the book as simple as it can be. I also took out the Male OC X Female OC bit because I thought it really wasn't needed since this story is about Izano Urai and his rise to the top in AEW.

I'm still keeping the faceclaim in the cover, but I'm not changing the name of Izano's love interest.

If you want, here's a sneak peek of what's to come in the story.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Just as I was exhausted my match against Scorpio Sky for the TNT Title and about to leave the ring, I saw this as a theme played, making me speechless.

(A/N: I recommend you read "A Pirate's Treasure" on how Izano's father got this theme. Once you read "Special Moment Part 2" from that book, you'll understand.)

[There should be a GIF or video here. Update the app now to see it.]

I'll let the commentators handle this...

Tony S: Uh, guys?

JR: What's going on?

Excalibur: I don't know, something doesn't sound right!

Then, this name came up...

I saw my father's name come up as the fans popped so hard and photographs of his time in Suzuki-Gun started to show as well as pictures of his time in NXT, but the NXT and WWE logo was edited out of the pictures via photoshop, which I thought was really smart.

Then, the lyrics blared into the arena...

Titantron: Oshieteyo hito wa naze　sagashitsuzukeruno?

Kagirinaku setsunai ashita no

Titantron/Fans: Yume wo!

Then, in the heel entranceway, I saw someone in old sweats and converse they looked completely recognizable. I realized that they could only mean one thing:

The fans gave another huge pop and started chanting "holy shit" and started clapping for their fucking lives as they saw the man I was not expecting to see, same with me because my eyes are like saucers right now!

Excalibur: OH MY GOD IT'S OSHIRO!

Tony S: Oshiro?! I thought he retired!

JR: I wouldn't be so sure Schivione, that man has been teasing one last run before hanging up the boots for good!

Tony S: Look at Izano's eyes! He's in shock! His father, the legend, Oshiro is here in AEW! My God!

Excalibur: But why is he here?!

JR: I don't know! Probably looking for the  perfect opponent to end his career with!

Excalibur: Honored by the late great Antonio Inoki and mentored by The King, Minoru Suzuki, that man has shown that he is someone you do not want to mess with, in and out of the ring!

Crowd(chanting): HOLY SHIT! HOLY SHIT! HOLY SHIT! HOLY SHIT! HOLY SHIT! HOLY SHIT!

My father was just smiling with just pure evil and I was scared to my core. I didn't know that he would want to end his career on his terms after what happened with WWE, and to tell you the truth, I don't blame him.

After looking at me with an evil smile with his signature evil eyes, Oshiro was on the apron, clapping his hands and telling everyone to yell out the line he would want them to yell while pointing at his ear, making the crowd go berserk!

They knew they had to be ready for what's about to happen because as soon as the chorus was about to finish, the crowd was ready to yell at the top of their lungs, as loud as they can be.

He swiped his feet, something that he would always do before entering the ring when he was wrestling as well as before I was even alive, he stepped through the middle rope...

Crowd: KAZE NI NARE!!!

I think I'm going to be sick.

I didn't think that Oshiro Urai, my father, the prince of professional wrestling, and the legend, would want to end his pro wrestling career by facing me. I was feeling emotional on the inside while I was trying to control myself from being scared of being in the ring with my own father.

He was still smiling with such evil that I didn't know what to think! My father wants his last match to be with me?!

Crowd(chanting): 'SHIRO'S GONNA KILL YOU! 'SHIRO'S GONNA KILL YOU!

What's gonna happen? You'll have to find out as soon as I try to update that story!
