"Talk"

'Thought'
_______________
"Grrrr! Stupid Gojo! He Never Listens To Me Anymore!"

Utahime Iori, who sat on the entrance steps with her two other female friends, was still seen being very angry, growling and grumbling under her breath, all the while snacking on a bun cake.

"Hehe, someone's been more moody lately~"

Mei Mei, who was sucking on a popsicle, couldn't help but tease the very upset Iori.

"Probably because of her pregnancy."

Shoko Ieiri, who enjoys her gum that she chews and blows bubbles, suggested and offered a reason for her friend who was in a bad mood.

"S-SHOKO! T-That's Private!"

However, the reasoning suddenly turned Utahime into someone who got very embarrassed, blushing brightly and shyly hid her face behind her bun cake.

"Oh, right, I almost forgot about that, hm, you know, I can't really see myself becoming a mommy anytime soon."

Mei Mei couldn't help but hum softly to herself, now thinking about her own future after being reminded of her friend's condition, debating whether she was interested with the family life or not.

"Hey, is this the reason why you hate the new guy? Because he reminds you of your Ex?"

Shoko, after a moment to think, asked a question to Iori, and judging by her reaction, it must've been a very personal subject.

"W-Well, I-"

Though, just as Utahime was about to say anything to what her friend just asked, all three female JJK students were interrupted and startled by the front entrance door behind them suddenly being destroyed, as two certain figures flew over them and landed on the ground before them.

"I fought Demons, Curse Spirits, a Sorcerer, and even other Devil Hunter before~"

Dante luckily managed to land onto his feet, dusting himself and fixing his dirty red coat.

"But this is the first time I have ever had a fight with "THE" Kung Fu Panda before~"

But once Dante made himself more clean and proper, he immediately got into a fighting stance and brought his fist up against a Panda.

"To be honest, this is my first fight as well, so sorry if I lack experience in my skills."

Said Panda, who seems to be a very young literal bear, was also in a fighting stance, clenching his fist tightly, which has special knuckle guards over his fingers. He might be small and not as old as the Son of Sparda, but it was clear that he wouldn't back down against his opponent.

'Hah! I already love this place!~'

And with that, both Dante and his animal friend went at it for each other. The two clash, and the fight has begun. It was already obvious that the man in red was the overall better fighter. Superior speed, strength, and experience, he was able to knock down the panda more than not. However, despite that, the young bear was still able to hold his own quite well with his opponent. His small and nimble size made it hard to hit, yet even if he was punched, his plush and unnaturally made body was able to soak up a lot of damage and leave him mostly unharmed. And while he lacks his opponent's experience, he definitely made up for it with his animalistic instincts, which were mixed in with his human-like fighting style.

"I see that your little pet project has grown up more than I last remember."

Though as Dante and Panda continued their hand-to-hand combat, both Gojo Satoru and Masamichi Yaga could be seen standing on the roof of the building and just watching the fight between a Devil Hybrid and a Cursed Corpse.

"I want to enroll him as a student once he's fully developed."

Yaga just simply responded to Satoru's comment, though his gaze behind his sunglasses never left the fight.

"Though that might take a few more years until then."

If one pays close attention to Yaga's slight change of tone and expression, one might think he cares for Panda like his own child, which was accurate since he created the animal.

"Wow, you really chose a literal Panda over the Son of Sparda?"

Gojo was the only one able to notice this and promptly teased Masamichi for it, who just mumbled under his breath about it.

"Hm... PANDA! Gorilla Mode!"

Though when Yaga finished muttering about something, he suddenly yelled out something that caught both fighters' attention, which did make them stop their battling and look up at him.

"You got it Dad!"

Though out of the two, Panda was the only one who understood what his creator said, before looking back at his fighting partner.

"Sorry for this."

Though what Panda said next to the Son of Sparda only made him tilt his head in slight confusion.

"Sorry for what-"

But before Dante could question the young bear what he was talking about, his face was met with a very large fist, which had enough force to shatter his nose and crack his skull before being sent flying and crashing into a tree or two.

"Ow..."

Dante, after he spat out a tooth and snapped his nose back into place, immediately pushing and jumping out of the way, narrowly avoiding being crushed by the Cursed Corpse's large fist, which was more like a gorilla in shape. The man in red pulled out both Ebony and Ivory and started shooting at him, but the much larger animal was able to smack away all the bullets with his large hands as he charged towards his opponent and prepared to slam him down with a big crushing fist.

"Come on, can't you see how strong my student-"

"You're still a student too."

"-My friend is? Why are you being so hard on him?"

As the epic battle between "Gorilla Hands" vs "Gun-Fu" has begun, both Gojo and Yaga have continued their conversation.

"Becoming a Sorcerer takes more than just strength."

Yaga still seems unconvinced in allowing the Devil Hybrid to join JJK school.

"Don't give me that crap, me and you both know he has more than just power."

Which definitely annoyed Gojo from being denied, even after defending the Son of Sparda.

"He has smarts."

Back in the fight between Dante and Panda, the man in red tried to be more strategic in his battle against the Cursed Corpse, evidenced by using the Gorilla's own strength against him and making him lose balance when he swung his big fist at him.

"He has skills."

Once Panda was all tripped up, Dante then aimed his Ebony gun at him and fired, which the large beast tried to block with his big hands, but the Devil Hunter used Ivory to quickly shoot the flying bullet to make it avoid the large palm and make it hit him in the chest, forcing the him to fall over after such a strong shot to the body.

"He has unbreakable willpower and mental fortitude."

Though before Dante could take another shot, Panda slammed his fist to the ground, breaking it and made the Son of Sparda lose balance, which the Cursed Corpse takes the chance to grab onto his body with both his large hands and slowly begin to squeeze him tightly, the man in red was able to feel his bones being crushed and nearly break, but this intense pain wasn't able to stop him, as he head-butted the Gorilla in the face, which forced him to be let go before getting tackled.

"He even has a heart of gol-erm, shiny bronze! A good sense of morality and all that!"

Yes, despite how rough the fight was, and how harsh they were with each other, both Dante and Panda did not go too far. They weren't trying to kill each other. They might not be holding back against one another, but it was still a fight both were enjoying very much so.

"What can he possibly be lacking-"

"That's not why I'm hesitant in letting him in."

Before Gojo could list out any more reasons why the Son of Sparda should be accepted, Yaga finally said something that caused him to pause in his own words.

"The moment I saw him, I immediately knew what type of person he was."

Yaga, still watching the fight, couldn't help but also notice the quality and the type of person that the Devil Hunter was.

"An immature brat, who would cause trouble and most likely make us drown in debt... But just like you, he would also have the power to change the future and the balance of society."

Yet despite Yaga good opinions towards the man in red, the Honored One still couldn't but not understand the situation.

"If you know that, then why reject him?"

When Gojo asked this, Masamichi let out a small sigh, for once looking away from the fight and facing the Strongest with a serious expression.

"Unlike you, you're the one who has a tight leash on this world."

Yaga clearly saw Satoru as the type of person who has the whole world in his hands.

"But him? This Son of Sparda?"

Though when Yaga looked at the Son of Sparda.

"He's the one on the leash."

Yaga could only see the Devil Hunter being targeted by the entire world.

"And everyone's looking for a chance to put down the dog for good, no matter what they have to break or who to kill to get to him."

Once Yaga had explained his real reason why he hesitated in not letting the man in red into the JJK school, both him and the Honored One fell into a moment of silence, all the while looking and continued to watch the fight that happened down below.

"... Then I guess it's my turn to hold the leash."

Was all Gojo had to say to this.

"Hm..."

Yaga just responded with a grunt.

"TRICERATOPS MODE!"

The creation of Yaga had paused his fight against the Son of Sparda, and once he had processed what his Father had said to him, his body had begun to change again, morphing into something large that completely overshadowed the Devil Hunter in size, not to mention looking a bit more monstrous than a simple animal form.

"I'm more of a T-Rex type of guy myself~"

Though while most would be afraid at such a sight, Dante couldn't help but wear a very amused expression, which Panda, now fully in his 3rd form, let out a very loud uncontrollable roar, as he charged towards the man in red, who just pulled out his Rebellion blade and swung it at the his Triceratops friend, with a strong enough clash that nearly made Utahime, Shoko, and Mei Mei fall over from the shockwave, though Yaga and Gojo just kept watching with a more serious yet calm expression throughout the entire thing.

"... Do you accept the responsibility, Gojo? No matter what happens to Dante, and those around him?"

"Of course."

So yeah, fucking with the time line a bit, certain thing happening sooner or later, it shouldn't change the overall story, but just wanna let you know, it helps add in context and fit in some of the DMC stuff.

(BTW, when should I do the DMC 5 Arc? Like I know it would take place after Season 1 and 2 of JJK, but where specifically should it start?)
