"Well well well~....If it isn't that old fox's students! How I miss you guys so much!"

The guy's voice sounded everywhere in the void making you feel confused as to where he is.

"Oh?~ and it seems theres humans involved this time!" The voice sounded beside Kuroo's ear. Kuroo flinched as he backs away.

"I didn't think they'd be pulled in as well!~" This time it was next to the frightened Hoshiumi.

"I was only planning on taking that fox's students....But....."

The guy smiled widely, as his eyes glowed a bloody red color.

"This doesn't seem too bad as well~..."

"Who are you?" Futakuchi calmly asked. As he continues to secretly heal Komori.

The guy raised an eyebrow as he looks at Futakuchi. When he realized what Futakuchi is, he smiled widely. "A spirit who specializes in healing?~"

—BOOM!

Futakuchi wasn't even able to think when he was suddenly kicked by the abdomen, he flew away and rolled on the ground as he groaned in pain.

Coach Ukai and the rest became alarmed! "Futakuchi-san!"

Kyoutani cursed as he sprinted towards the mysterious guy. He made his nails longer and tried to stab him with it. But the guy dodged swiftly. Kyoutani realized that the situation they were in is pretty serious unlike he imagined...!

Kyoutani continues to hit the guy, but he just couldn't! It made Kyoutani lose his temper, the guy took advantage of Kyoutani's mistake and quickly kicked his head.

Kyoutani was about to dodge but it was just too fast for him, so his head hit the guy's leg, then it hit to the ground with a loud —BANG!

Dust formed around Kyoutani. He groaned as he felt a sticky liquid on his head.....He didn't know his opponent was much stronger than him....Kyoutani was in daze because he couldn't believe he just lost by one kick. He remembers Shoyo's teaching....Have a patient and calm mind. Once theres an opening, strike.

He lost because he was too impatient and loosed his temper. First, Futakuchi was injured, and now he's injured and couldn't move, he won't be able to protect the humans for a while...

The guy approached Kyoutani and stepped on his head. Kyoutani groaned weakly. "I didn't know that old fox's students can be so weak"

"What will your Sensei think huh?~ he will be so humiliated because of you! Hahaha!"

When Kyoutani and the guy started fighting, Komori was able to make a prison talisman. He was about to throw it at the 'distracted' guy to trap him....

But he didn't expect the guy to have eyes on his back as he side stepped, he twisted his body and brought out his palm towards the talisman. Then a black flame was summoned causing the talisman to burn.

Komori widened his eyes as he backed away in disbelief. "E-Evil Arts!"

No wonder they couldn't defeat him even though they were considered as powerful....Its because that guy has learned the Evil Arts that has been sealed a million years ago!

The guy grinned widely at Komori.

Komori didn't have time to react, and he was hit by a wave of strong dark aura. Komori who has pure aura, couldn't help but spit out a plenty amount of blood!

"Komori-san!!"

"Just wh-what do we do?!" Asahi asked in distress.

"Stay in this circle!" One of the Coaches said.

"Everyone! Don't be afraid, its okay, its okay"

"We'll be safe!"

"Don't worry..!"

Some teams were already crying for their lives while some tried to calm the scared team members. Kita and Ushijima tried to think of a way for them to escape if things don't go too well...But they couldn't. There was just no way out.

Futakuchi who was just healing his shattered bones, stood up with difficulty....He looks at Kyoutani who was bleeding from the head nonstop, and Komori who was spitting out blood nonstop..

'....Ah....This is bad....' Futakuchi simply thought. 'At this rate....We'll die and won't be able to protect the humans...'

'Think Futakuchi think!....'

'What would Sensei do....What did he teach us when faced such a strong enemy...?'

Simply run.

'But we don't have a way out! We are trapped in this guy's space!'

Then, you have no choice but to continue fighting. Since you already know your about to die, fight to the death. Don't hold back. At least you get to die with honor.

'Thats right....We have no choice...No way out and no escape....Theres only one thing to do...'

Futakuchi spread his palm, the ground began to rumble uncontrollably...Kuroo and the rest fell to the ground because of the shaking.

"Wh-whats happening?!"

"An earthquake..?"

'Fight to the death. At least you'll die with honor...' Futakuchi repeated Shoyo's lectures in his mind.

He raised his hand, and half of the ground was raised. Except for the part where the teams and his two spirit friends are.

Kenji, you shouldn't overuse your power, unless its important.

I know Sensei!

Your power is very destructive, it can split the whole world.

Ughhh, I get it! I'll be careful and use it when I need it!

Good.

Futakuchi glared fiercely as he brought his hand down, the ground that was rising up like a wall, began plummeting towards where the mysterious guy is at. The guy looked up and smiled helplessly.

"..Ohhh well~ I think I can survive this"

—BOOM!!

Smoke and dust appeared as the team covered their eyes while a strong blast of wind came towards them.

The loud sounds of stone hitting on the ground slowly disappeared. And only a large amount of mountain rubbles that resembles mount Fuji, was seen after the smoke and dust dissipated.

Futakuchi gasped for air as he kneeled on the ground. Its been awhile since he used his power...His Sensei always prohibited him to use it because it was dangerous. And sure enough, it is....

All of them were almost burried because of it! Good thing he quickly made a wall for them.

Everyone was silent, and only small rocks falling down to the ground from time to time can be heard...

"....Is....Is he dead...?" Goshiki asked nervously...

"Is everyone okay?!"

"Everyone is fine.....Just, frightened.."

"...Wuwuwuwu....I wanna get out..."

"Don't worry! We will get out soon!" Daichi shouted.

"And WHEN is that?!" Hoshiumi exclaimed. "We've been here for two hours!"

"We don't even know if we'll get out alive!!"

"Kourai Hoshiumi, calm down." Ushijima said sternly.

"HOW CAN I?! IF THAT GUY ISN'T DEAD, THEN WE'RE SCREWED. YOU SAW HOW POWERFUL HE IS?? FUTAKUCHI AND THEM COULDN'T EVEN DEFEAT HIM!"

"AND IF HE'S DEAD, GOOD! BUT HOW ARE WE SUPPOSED TO FIND A WAY OUT?? THERES NO EXITS! WE'LL STARVE IN HERE!"

"Don't worry, I won't let you guys starve to death"

Everyone flinched as they turned towards the mountain of rubbles. A guy with an unrecognizable face, grinned. He slid down, leaped, and landed not too far from them. His face and injuries started to heal little by little.

"H-He's still alive after being crushed?!" Kindaichi whisper yelled in disbelief.

Narita squinted "..He has a regeneration skill"

"We're doomed!!"

"We'll all die!" The rest cried out.

"Tch, so noisy and annoying" The guy walked towards them leisurely while picking his ears.

Kyoutani and Komori who was gathering a right amount of spiritual energy for them to heal themselves, finally moved. The two went to Futakuchi's side as they discussed some things silently.

"...Futakuchi...What should we..do..?" Komori weakly asked as he glanced vigilantly at the mysterious guy. He was still poisoned by the dark aura that the guy hit him. But he tried his best to heal.

Futakuchi closed his eyes. "We fight....We have no other choice.."

"Fine by me!" Kyoutani cracked his knuckles and swung around his arms. "I can't believe I got defeated by an Evil Arts user! It really is damn humiliating..!"

Kyoutani summoned out his spear that was half a head taller than him. "I'm gonna make sure he's gonna get what he deserves....I'll slice his head, take it, and then present it to Hinata!"

"You're so violent" Futakuchi sweatdrops...Then he suddenly smirks.  "But, I'm with you"

Komori quickly wrote on two talismans, after he finished, he sticked it at the back of Kyoutani and Futakuchi's back.

The two felt a warm feeling surrounding their body. They also felt like they just got stronger.

"I'll be right by your back to support you two!" Komori said with a smile.

Kyoutani grins. While Futakuchi nodded.

"Lets all do this..." The three took a deep breath and sighed. Komori placed his two palms on Futakuchi and Kyoutani's back. While the two placed their palm on each their shoulder.

"Will they be okay...?" Sugawara asked worriedly...

"I'm sure they will..." Yaku muttered silently..

"........." Kenma looked on with nervousness..

"Lets all just wait and see..." Kita said.

Inuoka nodded "We'll be fine. Because we're in this together!"

Asahi brought his palms together and started to pray heavily. "Please protect us, please protect them....Please make everything go alright..."

Whilst in their silent reassurance and comfort. They felt a very warm feeling surrounding them, the team looked at the three spirits.

A plenty amount of Pure Aura burst out from the spirits that it could cover a whole baseball field.

The team felt their tensed bodies become relaxed..

"What is this.." Iwaizumi looked around his surroundings. The area was covered in golden mist.

"Don't ask....But it feels really nice.." Akaashi sighed with ease.

The three spirits merged their Pure Auras intending to make the mysterious guy retreat and weaken himself. But the guy didn't change his expression one bit. He didn't even flinch or at least disappear.

The three spirits were in shock! When they show their auras, it can make Evil Art users dissipate without a trace. And when combined. They can wipe a whole army of Evil Art users!

But now.....Why isn't it working?!

The guy smirked widely. "Must be wondering why your Pure Auras won't work on me right?~"

"Well~ thats because I can do both Pure and Dark"

The guy spread his arms as he unleashed both Pure and Dark Auras on each side of his. He started laughing maniacly at the horrified faces that they were showing.

"Wh-Wh-Why.....H-How can this be..!" Komori backed away, his eyes shows fear in them..

Futakuchi sweatdrops "...This....Is impossible..."

"WHY IS THE HIGHER BEINGS NOT TAKING A MOVE?!" Kyoutani roared in frustration.

"They clearly love me!~"

"BULLSHIT! LOVE YOUR ASS"

Futakuchi brought his arms in front of Kyoutani. He doesn't want a fight breaking out again just yet... "Just who are you really...What is your purpose for doing this!" He glared fiercely.

The guy tilted his head as he held his chin. "Hmmmm~ Why should I tell you? That won't be too fun right?"

"But, you'll know once you'll meet your 'Sensei' again. He prolly has an idea 'cause he's a smartass."

Futakuchi just realized. Right....Where is Sensei and the rest..How did I forget such an important thing! He must be too focused on the battle.

"Where are they?"

"You ask just now?? I Dunno, that two mole guy took him away before I can do anything to him!~" You clearly already did something to Shoyo..

"Wheres Lev and the Twins." Komori finally spoke.

"Them? Hmmmm. I also dunno! Teehee!~" He bonked his head as he stuck out his tongue.

"Then...Why did you brought us here.." Futakuchi silently glanced at the safe Team.

"Hostage! Obviously. If your Sensei knows you guys are here, I can threaten him and then the two of us can have a nice and hot fighting session once again!~"

The guy then punched his palm like he just remembered something. "Oh right!~ it might take a while for him to come and rescue you guys though..."

"...What do you mean." Komori frowned a bit..

The guy just grinned widely as he remembers the bloody look of Shoyo. It made his body feel pleasure looking at that sight! He changed his mind. He won't Kill Shoyo, but make him his toy for abuse!

"While we're waiting. I don't mind playing with you guys first! But dont worry. I wont kill you, kekekeke"

The chuckle echoed throughout the void. Until they suddenly heard a —BANG!

The short peaceful moment was gone. And now a fight has begun.

"Sakusa!" Komori exclaimed in shock! How the hell did his cousin get here?!

Sakusa stood up straight as his hand was on his Katana. The guy rolled a few meters until he got back up and tidied his bloody dried up clothes.

"That wasn't very nice you know?"

Sakusa just coldy hmph-ed.

"Sakusa! Your here!" Futakuchi can finally sigh in relief. But he was still wondering where Shoyo is..

The Team saw Sakusa and exclaimed in surprise!

"Its Sakusa!" Matsukawa shouted.

"Woohoo! Is he here to come and rescue us??~" Tendou smiled with relief.

Nishinoya and Tanaka celebrated "Hooray! We're saved!"

"Tch...Celebrating already when you guys are still trapped here? How annoying.." The guy glared fiercely at the team who shivered under his stare..

"Sakusa! Wheres Sensei?!" Komori asked in distress.

"He's fine."

The three spirits sighed in relief.

Sakusa point the tip of his Katana towards the guy. "I will kill you."

"Wow, so straightforward. Just like Teacher and Student!" He grinned widely as he sprinted towards Sakusa causing the ground to crack because of the force.

Sakusa also did the same. He didn't waste any time and straight up fought with him head on. The three spirits also came to help! Its now Four on one!

To Be Continued!!

Ahhhhh, Just ignore the Aura stuff and spiritual energy stuff. I also have no idea what it is ( TAT)

All I know from my brain is that Spiritual Energy is like "Energy". But Spiritual Energy is more ✨Fancier✨

Pure Aura and Dark Aura are Like Light and Darkness. Total opposites and blah blah blah blah.

If the Dark Aura is stronger than the Pure Aura. The "Pure Aura" users will turn into an evil spirit, feel extreme pain, bleed, or turn into a puppet.

Whilst if Pure Aura is stronger than the Dark Aura. The "Dark Aura" users can, feel extreme pain, bleed, or just disappear like dust. They won't be able to rehabilitate cuz their souls already belongs to the Evil Arts.

Y'all get me? Okay cool :D

BYE Have a great day/evening.
