~Outside of Shangri-La~
"Once you enter, please be sure to tell the Ninth and Sixth units to exit with the exception of Tomioka Nagisa since the Eight Unit and Chief Bell from the Third will be joining you soon."

As they were listening to the explanation of how training in Shangri-La worked, the Seventh Unit saw the doors to Shangri-La opening up. The moment they were open, the group saw a single man walking out of Shangri-La with a bright smile on his face.

"Phew! Those kids are really something. Training them was actually a good way for me to stay in shape!"

As he was walking out of Shangri-La, Brekdak saw Yuuki along with the other groups. A smile formed on his face when he looked at them all. He could tell they all had potential and that Nagisa would be fine in their company. While the man was leaving the area, he had one thing to say.

"Wakura Yuuki, thanks for being Nagisa's friend. Take good care of my son, ya here!"

"Um, yessir!!"

As Brekdak laughed at Yuuki's reaction, the man walked off as he finished his role for now. Soon everyone was walking through the doors of Shangri-La, all of them wearing a look of extreme shock on their faces. This was something they would never expect. Brekdak was well known for his expertise in Muay Thai, so seeing him here and learning his relationship with Nagisa was still something they needed to process. The moment they all got their thoughts together, Yuuki and the Seventh were in awe with how beautiful Shangri-La looked. However, the moment they made it into the dorm, they were surprised with what they saw next.

As Sahara and Yachiho were relaxing in the lake and greeted the Seventh Unit, Yuuki was now looking around for his best friend. However, his thoughts were interrupted when he felt some water hitting his face. When he looked down, he saw Nagisa was under the water and cupping his hands together.

"Unexpected attack achieved!"

"Nagisa! Can I talk with you for a minute?"

As Nagisa nods his head, he got out of the lake and walked to the other side with Yuuki so no one else could hear them. On the way there, they saw the rest of the Azuma family from the Ninth Unit doing stretches as they were also wearing swimsuits. The moment they were far enough away, Yuuki asked Nagisa the biggest question on his mind.

"Nagisa....how can you keep your cool when surrounded by all that?"

"Yuuki ..........i'm barely holding it together."

".........you're a brave soldier."

Despite how he acts, Tomioka Nagisa is still a young man.

~A few minutes later~
After changing back to their original clothing, the Sixth and Ninth Units both stood before the Seventh Unit. There was still time before the Eighth Unit and Bell from the Third Unit to show up. Plus there was also the flow of time in Shangri-La to factor in as well. So they still had a bit of time together. When Nagisa looked towards Tenka, the chief gave him a thumbs up. Seeing this, Nagisa returned the gesture as he walked towards Kyouka.

"Kyouka-san, we still have time before the others show up. So then, let's finished what we started."

"What are you on about, Tomioka?"

"Isn't it obvious. We never did finish our Mato Game, remember. Plus both sides have gotten stronger since then. Not to mention, you and I both know we'll never be satisfied with just a mere draw. Plus i'm confident the Sixth Unit can crush you all."

Kyouka and Yuuki were shocked by Nagisa's bold claim. To be honest, they never saw the boy express himself like this. A smile formed on Yuuki's face as Kyouka smirked at Nagisa, as if accepting the challenge. After adjusting her hat, the chief of the Seventh Unit looked at the boy.

"Fine then, we'll take you on. Have you decided on the matchups?"

"No, but I know one thing for sure. Tenka won't be participating. Yachiho, Sahara, and I are more than enough."

"Heh, looks like someone finally learned how to be competitive and trash talk. Very well, the Seventh Unit will accept. As for who battles, we'll leave it up to our squads. Though, it seems the first match has already been decided."

As Kyouka said this, Nagisa turned his head to see Himari and Yuuki standing next to each other. As Himari used her ability to copy Kyouka's, Yuuki began to change his form as he was now in his Whirlwind slave form. This form brought back plenty of memories from the first Mato Game.

Seeing this, he already knew where this was heading. As Nagisa walked back to his unit, he saw the serious look on Yachiho's face. Soon a wide grin appeared on Nagisa's face as he smacked Yachiho's back. When the Azuma looked at the boy in annoyance, she saw the reassuring look on the boy's face.

"You don't need to think about last time. It won't be the same, after all, you got a lot stronger since then. I'm counting on you, Yachiho."

"Nagisa.......hmph. Of course, you can sit this one out. I can handle these two by myself. If I somehow lost even after you trained me, I don't deserve to be vice chief."

As she smiled back at Nagisa, Yachiho held up her right hand. Seeing this, Nagisa smiled back as he gave the vice chief a high-five as she walked towards Yuuki and Himari. To this day, that lost still weighed on her mind. This was Yachiho's chance to redeem herself. No, that wasn't quite it. It was her chance to redeem the Sixth Unit's pride. As Yachiho and her opponents were a few feet away, Fubuki was seen standing at the sidelines with the rest of the units as she held up her right arm.

"The first match will be Azuma Yachiho vs Azuma Himari! Begin!"

"Branding!"

Taking advantage of his speed in Whirlwind form, Yuuki stepped forward and thrusted his right fist simultaneously while focusing his power at a single point. However, both Himari and Yuuki's eyes widen in horror with what they saw. Just before Yuuki's fist could hit her, Yachiho managed duck down and slam her left fist into Yuuki's chest. The moment this happened, Yuuki was the one that was pushed back as Himari couldn't believe what happened.

"No way! Did she use Golden Hour to turn back time because we already succeeded? No, she doesn't even look the slightest bit tired. Did Yachiho actually react to Branding?!"

"Golden Hour:Q.T.E!"

Just as Yachiho took her stance, time had come to a stop. Suddenly Yachiho dashed in front of Yuuki as she slammed her fists into his Adam's apple, chest, and his liver. Not only that, she even jumped upwards and slammed her right foot into Himari's left arm. As soon as she landed on the ground, time began to resume. The moment it did, both Yuuki and Himari were seen falling onto the ground as they screamed in pain. As Yachiho took her stance again, she looked at her two opponents.

"Sorry, you were moving so slow, I thought i'd take initiative."
