Disclaimer: I don't own Inazuma Eleven.
"Nishiki, what are you doing here?" asked Taiyou. "Isn't that obvious? I've come to save you!"
"No, I mean what are you doing here so early? The training course would take much longer than that."
"Hehe, well, that's because..." Nishiki closed his eyes, hands on his hip. "We skipped the last course!"
"Ano...Nishiki-senpai. That's nothing to be proud about." said Shinsuke weakly, almost like a whisper.
"Daijobu! We already mastered Keshin Armed on the second last training course. Dealing with these guys now will be a piece of cake!"
"Is that so? Haha! You sure are an amusing one, Nishiki. Very well, allow me to crush you with all of my strength!" shouted Zanark.
"Shinsuke, take care of Taiyou and the others. I'll handle this one."
"Understood."
As Shinsuke gather Taiyou and the others up to a safe place, Zanark and Nishiki were having a stare off. Faster than a blink of an eye, the two rushes at each other with an almost inhuman speed and clashes off with each other only to pull back to regain their footing.
"Seems that you're not only trash talking, you actually have the strength to back it up." said Zanark as he cracked his knuckles.
"Gee, thanks. You seem to have level up your skill too. Guess it's time to be serious, Come out, Sengoku Bushin Musashi!" A red samurai emerges from Nishiki back, equipped with its famous two blades. "Armed!" Soon after it emerges, it changes to a mass of energy which covers Nishiki in a blue-red armor.
"Tch, you really did mastered Keshin Armed. Very well, you will be the one who will let me test the full extent of my power!" Zanark followed the suite, summoning up his keshin and used Keshin Armed covering himself in the infamous crimson armor.
"Ikkesou! Nishiki!" Just as quickly as he finished his statement, the two rushes at each other with inhuman speed striking each other, in a quick flash of slash and shockwave. Their tremendous fight can be felt all around the school as the other students quickly went into a safe hiding spot. Their fight can be even felt by the fleeing Shinsuke and the others. Speaking of which, what are they doing?
Shinsuke and the others
"Taiyou, hurry up! We can't afford to be caught up by those guys!" shouted Midori as she runs with the others, though Taiyou was the last one behind.
"Gomen...guess I used up more aura than I thought..."
"Come one, Midori. Give Taiyou a break, will you? He has an illness and he fought to protect you guys with all his might!" said Sangoku. "All right, all right. Akane, bring out your strongest healing technique. We need to heal him as fast as possible."
As Taiyou was being healed, unbeknownst to them, two opponents silently approach. Suddenly, a spinning black wheel and purple blade. But due to Shinsuke's training, he was able to react quickly jumping and grabbing the others out of the weapon range.
"Hehe, you managed to dodge our attacks without even flinching. You must have improved your skill by a great deal, haha."
"However, that won't be enough to defeat us or Captain."
"We'll see about that, Come out, Goseishin Titanias!" The said giant emerges from Shinsuke back, which immediately turn into a mass of energy the moment Shinsuke said, "Armed!"
The short boy became covered in a blue metallic-like armor. But that wasn't the only thing that change for him, as the moment the armor was completed he disappeared faster then anyone can blink.
A fist connected with Rasetsu chest as he flew backward, while Shuten was in awe by the little boy's speed. However that wouldn't stop him from defeating him, as black dust surrounded his fist, soon turning into a spinning blade.
Shuten threw it, hoping a surprise attack would completely obliterated Shinsuke but that wasn't enough, as Shinsuke reacts before it could even touch him. The little boy was no where in sight, making both allies and foes wonder.
"Buttobi Jump!"
Shinsuke's feet, now connected with Shuten's hand as he blocked the attack, only to have them back knocked backward.
"Tch, that little boy packed more punch than I previously thought." said Shuten.
"Ah, guess we have to 'up' the game a bit now, right?"
"Agree."
Both of them got into a stance, as Shinsuke prepares for what ever surprises they can dish out.
Nishiki-senpai, I hope you can beat Zanark.
"Midori-san, Akane-san, how long will it take to completely heal those guys?"
"We need just 10 more minutes; they seem to have taken more damage than I thought." replied Midori, as the ever-present bluish glow hover over Sangoku while Akane's healing Taiyou.
10 minutes, no problem! I can take out these guys before they take out us.
"Bring it! Give me everything you got!"
"Oh, we'll make sure you regret asking for that, little boy!" shouted Rasetsu as he and Shuten rushes forward to collide heads on with our hero. And speaking of hero, what about our samurai Blitz Warrior? What was the outcome of his battle?
Nishiki and Zanark
Two blur crosses each other, resulting in a familiar, metal sound. Armguard versus Katana, Crimson versus Yellow, Zanark versus Nishiki!
The duo's fight however, was left in a stalemate as they both seem to be panting, obviously out of breath. The surrounding area has been reduced to mere rubbles. With both of them gripping their weapon tightly, a sign of neither showing surrender, this battle could go anywhere.
"Disaster Break!" shouted Zanark, as he desperately rushes to hit Nishiki with his famous (infamous) crimson fist attack.
"Denrai Houtou!" Nishiki countered back with his own signature technique, the yellow Katana slash. The two special attacks collide with each other, again producing an even greater shockwave than their previous clash.
With all of their auras spent on special attacks, they only have enough to keep their armor intact. However, that might not be the case for Nishiki, as he spent some of his energy in training room. And now the only energy that he has left is to keep him standing.
Zanark seeing the fatigue that Nishiki shows, immediately took the opportunities to punch Nishiki, right in the chest, sending him flying towards nearby rubbles. And that was all it takes to completely destroy Nishiki's Keshin Armor.
"Hu...hu...guess the fight is over now huh? I'll destroy you here and now!"
"Are you gonna use your keshin again? cause it would be shameless to destroy a non-keshin armed opponents?"
"So what if I do?"
"Then it means that you don't have enough energy to use a special attack with Keshin Armed!"
"You're on the brink of your death, yet you dare to mock me. Hmph, I don't even need a special attack to finish you off in your current state!"
If I have problems with keeping Keshin Armed intact, then Shinsuke should be having the same problem but he should be okay. Akane and Midori, plus others are with him. For now I would have to hold out against Zanark until they get here. Heh, this is gonna be tough, considering I don't even have enough energy to summon my keshin.
"Sa, Nishiki. Here I come!"
Back to Shinsuke and the others
As Shinsuke and the enemy duo continue to fight, the others seem to be healed perfectly, ready to get back into the battle. However, Shinsuke is not doing so good.
Occasionally in the fight, he seems to be getting slower and less agile when he first used Keshin Armed. This results in Rasetsu and Shuten landing occasional blows on him.
Just as Nishiki thought, Shinsuke's keshin armor was wearing out, as he pants trying to keep up with all the barrages the duo dished out.
However, Shuten and Rasetsu decided to put an end to this fight, preparing their own signature attack.
"Take this! Ogre Blade!"
"Sand Cutter!"
The two spinning blades flew in the direction of Shinsuke, ready to slice him apart. Shinsuke, however use all of his remaining aura to stop the attack full force. The attack took a toll on Shinsuke armor, as it fades away in a mass of black energy.
Rasetsu took this chance to rush in with his blade, fully charged with purple energy, ready to strike Shinsuke. But his attack was in vain as a bright red hand blocks his attempt. Moments later, a purple portal appears near Rasetsu, and a fist emerges from it, punching Rasetsu away.
Soon, two blast of fireball heads in the direction of Shuten and Rasetsu, forcing both of them to dodge it.
After the dust clears, the defenders of our hero, is none other than: Sangoku, Hikaru and Taiyou!
"Sangoku-senpai, Hikaru, Taiyou-san..."
However Taiyou immediately went behind Shinsuke back and put his hand on it. Shinsuke was about to ask him what he was doing, only to be interrupted by a surge of power. He suddenly felt refresh, all of his fatigue was gone. And that could mean only one thing.
"Come out, Goseishin Titanias!" the great blue giant emerges from Shinsuke's back once more and turns into the metallic blue armor again.
"Taiyou-san, arigatou." Wait if I had this problem with Keshin Armed then Nishiki-senpai will have the same problem!
"Taiyou-san, please leave everything to us here. You must go help Nishiki-senpai."
Taiyou face soon turns to those of a serious one, "Understood." and with that the orange haired boy disappear, running to Nishiki and Zanark.
Back again to Nishiki and Zanark
Nishiki was getting thrashed; he can't even put up a fight. He knew that Zanark was just toying with him but that is exactly what he wants. He has to buy time until Taiyou and the other comes.
"What's wrong, Nishiki? Tired already? We're just getting started!" Zanark prepares to rush in and attack once more, maybe toying with him a little longer. But it seems that playtime is over as a fireball shot in the direction of Zanark forcing him to move away.
"So, Taiyou. Back on your feet eh, come here to help Nishiki, I supposed?"
"Nope, I'm just here to give him a little...boost in Blitz Aura."
And that's when Nishiki began to wonder, Boost in Blitz Aura? What the heck is that?!
However, he had no time to ask as Taiyou immediately transfers his energy into Nishiki, fueling him with Blitz Aura.
"Hehe, Zanark, you ask for it and now you'll get it. This is the renewed power of Nishiki Ryouma!" shouted Nishiki as he releases his keshin, immediately equipping it on to himself.
"Is that so? Then show me, this 'renewed' power of yours."
That was all it takes to fuel the battle lust that Nishiki needs, as he rushes in with his familiar Denrai Houtou but Zanark was able to block it before jumping away. The two then rushes at each other at an immense speed, making blur along the way. They clash multiple times; neither gaining the advantage as both appears to match in strength and speed.
But it seems that the situation only fuels our fighters' needs to fight. Taiyou thought this to be a bit scary; they were both on the opposite side yet they were still grinning like a child who has found a lollipop.
This is a great fight, only if he was on our side. "Nishiki, you're the first person who has satisfy my needs for battle this good. And I cannot allow anyone... who is on par with me to live!"
Zanark releases his entire aura at once, creating shockwave which force Nishiki and Taiyou to guard themselves. But before he could go in for the attack, he felt the immense pain in his chest once more. His crimson aura soon changes to eerie purple one. His Keshin Armor disappeared and his keshin reappears again, hovering over him. Instead of the claw-like demon, it looks like it's wrapped in...chains?
For Zanark, however the pain was unbearable as he clutches his heart. What is this? I was perfectly fine a moment ago...Did the battle take that much of a toll on me?
"Nishiki-san, attack now, while he's weaken." suggested Taiyou but Nishiki would have none of it. "Nope, finishing off a disabled opponent is not real victory."
"But-." before Taiyou could say anything, he was cut off by the look of determination in Nishiki's eyes.
"Zanark, I'm gonna help you as much as I can so stay still!"
He's helping his own enemy? What's wrong with him?!
Nishiki then discarded his armor and instead summoned up his keshin. He then uses its blade to slice through the chains, freeing Zanark's keshin from its own prison. After the keshin has been released, Zanark felt normal again, no pain, no restraint on his power at all.
"So, Zanark you ready to get this fight started again?"
"Hmph, you still want to battle but if we drag on any further, the whole region might be destroyed. But since you entertained me for this long, I guess you deserve a reward." said Zanark as he reaches into his pocket, grabbing something.
While Nishiki and Taiyou wonders what is this so called 'reward', Zanark suddenly threw an orange orb towards our heroes, who've caught it easily.
"Eh, what is this ball?"
"That's...that's the Orb of Sun!"
"But why are you giving it to us now, huh?" asked Nishiki. "I told you before, a reward for entertaining me for this long."
"Tch, guess you're not that bad of a guy after all."
"Don't get confident, I'll be back to defeat you. Make sure to join the Blitz Tournament, because you'll watch me become the next Blitz Master!"
"All right then, just try to keep up with me."
"I intend to..." and with that Zanark press some kind of button that make him disappear shocking both Nishiki and Taiyou.
"Well, that's one problem solved. The Orb of Sun is back where it belongs." said Taiyou as he received the Orb from Nishiki. Right at that moment, Shinsuke and the others arrived at the spot though surprised by the disappearance of Zanark.
"Nishiki-senpai, where is Zanark?! Did you beat him? You beat him right? You must have be-."
"Woah, slow down Shinsuke. I didn't beat him; the battle is a stalemate, though he returned the Orb of Sun. Guess that because he acknowledged my awesome power."
"Well, that's our mission done. I wonder how the others are doing?" asked Sangoku. "Don't worry. I'm sure they are fine, they probably finished their mission right about now."
"I hope so..."
"Yosh, minna! Let's go back to Raimon!"
"Uhh, Nishiki-senpai...we don't know anyway to go home..."
"Eh? Eeeehhhhhh?!"
Location: Kaiou Academy
"No way, we were too late..." said Kinako.
"Tch, Tsurugi...What do we do now?" asked Hakuryuu. Tsurugi closed his eyes for a moment, trying to calm himself down, but to no avail.
"Isn't it obvious?" said Tsurugi as he turns his head around, anger apparent in his eyes, "We'll find the one who did this...and kill them!"
Our heroes then set off, to find the culprit who reduced the powerful Kaiou Academy to mere rubbles. After much searching, they felt a little Blitz Aura so they rushed to the source. However, what they found was even worst. A few bodies of fainted...or dead Blitz Warrior, but when they look up they saw two figures. One is seem to be standing while the other one is crouching, obviously out of tiredness from what Tsurugi can tell.
They then heard mumbles and from the sound they could make out, "Major Target Completed: Orb of Sea. Minor Target Completed: Namikawa Rensuke. Progression state: 100%"
But it's the voice terrified them, it was monotone. No emotions, no feeling, nothing. It felt like an empty void when they heard it.
What will our heroes face against now?! Will they be able to defeat 'it'? Only one thing is certain, the battle will be that of an epic proportion!
