"Fist of Flowing Water, Crushing Rock."

Fast. That was one word Rairen could use to describe Nagisa's strikes. Each of his attacks were swift and precise. However, what truly threw Rairen off was the power behind each strike. Each hit felt like it could take a limb away from him. The worst part was that Nagisa was attacking so fast and relentlessly, he didn't have time to counter attack. But one question was on Rairen's mind.

"What is that? What is that mark on his face?"

"I said get out of the way!"

All of Nagisa's strikes were precise in hitting their target:groins, eyes, knees, nose, temple, throat, solar plexus, jaw, the neck. Each of the strikes to these areas were strong and precise. Shortly after using his hands to attack Rairen, Nagisa spun his body as he delivered a powerful kick to the shuuki's skull as he was sent flying backwards.

"The way this boy fights. The way he moves, the way he strikes the vitals, it's just like.....it's just like....."

As Rairen stood back up, he looked at Nagisa with growing interest. However, the longer he stared at Nagisa, he saw the mental image of someone else. A man with white hair and tanned skin that was close to exterminating him. Right now, he saw the only man who could've killed him in Nagisa.

"Ha! Hahahahahah! Now it all makes sense! You're one of his disciples, aren't you?! This just got interesting! What is your name, bo-!"

Rairen couldn't finish his sentence as Nagisa kept attacking relentlessly. However, the boy was slowly beginning to feel himself losing steam. His body felt extremely hot and he was getting more exhausted by the second. All he wanted to do was get to the black haired shuuki before he passes out, but Rairen was like a wall keeping him in place. The moment he stopped attacking, Nagisa noticed something appear beside him.

"Wow, you actually gave this shuuki a hard time, congratulations Nagisa-kun."

"T-Tenka-san?!"

Just as Nagisa noticed Tenka was next to him, Rairen suddenly charged at the boy. However, he noticed two things happened before he could reach them. The first thing he noticed was the fact the mark on Nagisa's face was slowly fading away. The second was the fact the army of Shuuki he brought with him was already disposed of.

"What happened? The army...."

"Army?"

Nagisa couldn't believe his eyes. In the short time span of him fighting Rairen, Tenka had already disposed of the army of shuuki by herself. Seeing the shocked expression on his face, Tenka merely smiled as she stood in front of her comrade.

"This will be the first time we ever fought side by side. Let's give it our best, Nagisa."

"Hmph, looks like I really get to enjoy myself. You are my target. It's sad that only two targets are here. Won't more show up soon?"

This statement made Tenka raise an eyebrow. Counting herself, the shuuki had two targets. Going by this logic, she guessed that Rairen and his comrades were going after the chiefs. Soon Rairen's right hand began to release electricity as he launched a large blast of it at Tenka. Soon smoke was in his sights from the attack as he was sure that his attack hit Tenka and Nagisa.

Suddenly, Rairen quickly jumped back as he dodged a kick from Tenka and a sword thrust from Nagisa. As the two of them stood side by side, Tenka looked at Nagisa and the boy simply nods his head. As Nagisa held onto his katana tightly, Tenka had her hands ready as she aimed them at Rairen. Seeing this, Rairen smirked.

"Two against one? Fine then. Let's see what you got, worms!"

~With Yuuki~
As Kyouka was on his back and swinging her sword at any shuuki that got too close, Yuuki was punching several of them in the skull but there was too many to fight individually. Seeing this, Himari ran towards her chief and Yuuki with great speed. She had an idea that might help them turn the tide if it worked.

"Chief, let me ride on Yuuki's back as well. If both of us do this while Slave is active, I'm sure we can take it to the next level!"

Kyouka nods her head as she reached out a hand to Himari. Truth be told, she felt the same way she did. With both herself and Himari riding on top of Yuuki's back, they were definitely going to get a new result. The moment Kyouka grabbed Himari's hand and pulled her up onto Yuuki's back, the boy began to be enveloped in light as his form started to change.

"I can feel the power welling up. That attack that humanoid shuuki used when we first encountered her....using Branding as the basis, i'm sure I can pull off that attack too!"

"So this is the power when we both ride on top of him."

"Perfect, we'll take care of the rest over here."

After listening to Kyouka and Himari, Yuuki simply nods his head. However, as he glanced towards his best friend, Yuuki smirked as he saw Nagisa had calmed down a bit as he too was fighting alongside his own chief.

"You're in good hands, Nagi."

~With Nagisa~
"Water Breathing, Seventh Form:Drop Ripple Thrust!!"

Just as Rairen avoided Tenka and his initial attack, Nagisa performed a precise and accurate thrust of his sword with great speed into one of the cracks he left on Rairen's body. Shortly afterwards, Rairen felt the armor of his left arm being ripped apart as the space around it began to be distorted.

The moment this happened, Nagisa swiftly removed his sword from the shuuki's body as he used all the strength in his legs to turn around and run as fast as he could.

"You coward!!! You dare turn your back and run from our fight! Get back he-"

"Good boy, Nagisa. I owe you a head pat later. Let's end this, shuuki. Ame-no-Mitori."

Ame-no-Mitori:Tenka is able to manipulate space and can teleport from one location to another, unlike Shuuki, she can teleport through Mato barriers. However, Tenka needs to touch someone else to teleport them. She can twist the space around her opponent ignoring all their defenses making it a sure kill move. She is capable of also teleporting around the battlefield 666 times without stopping.

"Amazing.......was Tenka-san always this amazing?"

As Nagisa asked himself this, he looked around for the black haired shuuki that he saw earlier. However, there was no trace of her to be seen. A sigh escaped from the boy's lips, but one thing was for certain. If he saw that shuuki again, he would do everything in his power to avenge his sister.

"What a hassle. Looks like I can never catch a break."
