Out of all the Saiyans and Aliens watching, it seemed only Kaido had seen the dishonorable act. Arra could've turned the tide and beaten Lero, but her chance had been stolen away. Despite the praise and attention everyone was currently showering on Lero, Kaido felt he needed to do something. He couldn't let Lero's actions slide simply because they had gone unnoticed. Shaking with anger, he brought up his hand. In his clouded judgement, he believed that Lero having pulled Arra's tail required immediate retaliation. "You… you bastard!"

Red ki visibly gathered in his palm at this point, so there was no hiding his intentions. Papai was facing the cheering crowds at this point, but everyone else could see the young Saiyan's intent to fire at Lero unprovoked. Even Lero could see, and all he was really doing was getting ready to counter with a smug smile on his face. He was practically daring Kaido to do was Suna who finally tried to step in. Grabbing Kaido's arm rather forcefully, she tried to get his attention. "Kaido, what the hell are you doing? It's our match next, don't get yourself disqualified."

That was enough to stop him from firing, but as a result it also caused Lero to begin to laugh at him. "What's wrong, Kaido? Too afraid of her to even try? Or are you just too afraid of me?"

At this point Kaido was trying to snatch his hand back from Suna, but she didn't trust him at all enough to just let it go. He managed to get out of her grasp regardless, although it did take trying. Then, he stepped up to meet Lero as the dishonorable Saiyan returned to the sidelines. Suna mentioning how he could get disqualified had somewhat calmed him down, but he had an anger boiling in him now.

So all he did was glare at Lero as he moved to the center of the Arena, to help Arra off the floor. When Suna saw he wasn't going to try to attack anyone yet, she tried to help him with this. He didn't stop her, so it wasn't before Arra was laying down on the sidelines. At this point, Suna finally tried to speak again. "Do you want to explain what the hell just happened?"

His response was simple, and short. He was angry, and he needed to let out some of that anger in a fight. There was no point in drawing out any conversations if she had to fight him next anyway. "Later."

With that, he returned to the center of the arena, followed by an intrigued Suna. As he waited for Papai to actually begin announcing, his eyes drifted from his opponent to the crowd watching along. Artiko, Zorn, and even the King himself were staring at him, discussing something. From the way Artiko looked, it didn't look very pleasant. Clearly, Kaido almost blasting Lero had been noticed. Of course, they weren't the only ones watching. The strangers from before were still looking on, although now Kaido didn't feel as afraid of them. He was too upset to focus on how strange their stares felt. Thankfully, before this immunity to the staring could wear off, Papai came to his senses and actually began to do his job again.

"I see that both of the remaining participants are present. Then, for those who may have forgotten or just arrived, I advise you to listen. For this is the last match of Arena B's Semifinals, and the winner of this match will face the Saiyan Lero next."

He gestured to Kaido first, and then began. "First off we have Kaido, Son of Artiko, a member of his majesty's Royal Guard. He has a recorded battle power of 450, although he's shown he could take on someone with a level of 600."

Then, his attention naturally fell on Suna, who he'd also gesture to. "Secondly, we have Suna, Daughter of Vacato and Pankin. She has a recorded battle power of 350, but she's shown us already that she's a pretty damn good fighter. Maybe she'll overcome the disparity in power level like so many other competitors in other Arenas throughout the capital."

Unlike Arra before her, Suna didn't really seem to be displeased with how she was being described. If anything, it was Kaido who was still looking angry due to what had happened a minute or two before. He didn't really care about what Papai was saying, he just needed that damn whistle to sound so he could show Lero what he could do.

So, after what felt like eternity passed and the noise was sounded, the first thing he did was expel his energy outward as an explosive wave. He had expected her to try to rush in for the first hit and get caught up in this attack, but it turned out he was actually pretty wrong. Instead, Suna had taken several steps back in expectation that he would've rushed in. All Kaido managed to do with his first move was damage the floor under him.

It was admittedly more than a little relaxing to finally let out some of his anger though, so a smile would replace the frown he had on his face a few moments before. It was time to show her what he could do. She wanted a long and entertaining fight, and he was willing to give it to her. He moved forward as if planning to dash at her, and she began to prepare accordingly. If he came close, she would definitely dodge.

The issue was, he wasn't planning on directly hitting her. As he moved forward, he concentrated the flow of ki into his fists, making it look like he was holding balls of ki. The continuous flow of energy into them made the balls strong and unstable, and they threatened to blow with every movement. Even as she dodged out of the way of his punches, he continued doing this, until he finally felt the move was ready.

Jumping into the air as soon as she tried countering directly, he immediately released the unstable ki into a short-range blast that'd go in all directions. Due to the short distance between the two of them, Suna was forced to cover her face before the blast inevitably knocked her down to the ground. He was also pushed back a few feet away himself for firing it off while in the air.

Kaido wasn't going to attack her while she was down after his promise, so she was very easily able to stand right back up, completely uninterrupted. She didn't really look to upset, seeing as she was smiling.

Once she was up again, it didn't take long for him to try and attack again. He dashed at her again, this time intending to kick her in the head. This time, he wasn't as lucky. He had given her time to prepare, so it wasn't hard for her to simply raise a hand up and block the kick. This block was then followed by a punch to his stomach now that he was so close.

Now that… that hurt like hell. Considering Kaido hadn't really been hit himself throughout his first match, this was a lot. His armor took most of the damage, but that didn't change the fact that it was painful.

Once he fell to the ground, he didn't try to get up. She had promised not to kick him where it would hurt the most, so from the ground he at least trusted her not to get an unnecessary advantage. He took a moment to breathe, and then threw up a ki blast to distract her. While she was trying to deflect or defend against it, he moved to knock her down to the ground. It wasn't that different to what Lero had done to Arra when he kicked her legs out from the floor. The key difference was Kaido's intentions. He certainly wasn't planning to grab her tail afterward.

Unlike Arra before her, Suna didn't fall for this tactic at all. Rather than allow herself to be knocked down like Arra had, she jumped just as he tried. She remained in the air at this point, floating to stop him from even trying again. Suna didn't often talk during fights, but this definitely warranted a comment from her. "You couldn't have really thought that'd work."

He started to get up at this point, and she didn't try and stop him. She wanted to drag this on longer, after all. Laughing as he prepared his fighting stance, all he did was respond to her at first. "It was worth the try. Though.. this might be more fun."

Bringing his hand up into the air, he started to create a bright red ball of ki. It was growing fast, so of course Arra immediately began to back up and charge up her own attack. Kaido hadn't planned for this, but it was a nice surprise. See, he had another hand still available. He neglected his original attack for a moment to let ki flow in to one of his fingers instead, and when her ball of energy looked unstable enough, he let out a finger beam to cause it to explode before she could throw it at him.

The resulting explosion, as well as the fact that Suna was floating and not standing, meant that the young Saiyan girl would be blown out into the sky. She wouldn't be pierced by the finger beam since Kaido had been careful about keeping his promise, but now she was disoriented and very far up in the sky. In other words, she was vulnerable to Kaido's original ball attack that he'd throw moments later. She managed to catch a glimpse of the attack and try to hold it back physically, but she couldn't push it back at him.

Since she was more distracted than before, he considered firing another beam to explode the ball she was trying to hold her own against. He could've managed it without too much difficulty, but he didn't. He had promised not to try anything that could possibly be lethal, and two explosions to the face weren't exactly healthy for eight year-olds. That, added to the fact that he wasn't sure if he could properly aim precisely with the finger beam, meant that the technique would be shelved temporarily.

Instead, he just waited for her to finally get out of the attack's way by expending her own energy. When she was out of its path, it became abundantly clear that her armor had taken the majority of the initial damage. It was cracking, which let Kaido know that the tactic was pretty successful. Suna had wanted a big spectacle of a fight, and now she had one rivaling the several ki barrages in Arra's match against Leku. ...That gave her quite the idea.

Now that she was high in the sky, she was in the perfect position to try to bring on an energy barrage of her own. Her only problem was she had pretty much exhausted most of her immediate energy with the attack that ended up blowing up in her face. She needed a few moments of rest, a minute to charge up her internal battery. She was pretty good at close up fighting and reacting to things, but she obviously didn't have the same amount of energy in her that he had.

If she sent down a barrage, it would be weak and it would just be avoided. A singular beam would be far stronger, but also rather easy to dodge. Unless… "Come on Kaido! Let's end this with a bang!" She brought her arms together at this point, letting a white aura emanate from her hands. Just as she planned, this wasn't a challenge he was willing to avoid. He was confident he'd win. He needed to win. However, he had promised her a good fight, and he wasn't going to deny her what she wanted. Bringing his own hands together in a similar fashion, he prepared a wave of his own.

Silence filled the next few moments, as the audience was obviously waiting for quite the struggle. They came here to see children with a lower battle power than the average PTO soldier fight, so they hadn't exactly been expecting this much ki control. Then, the two the Saiyans fired their blasts, letting the whole Arena see the clash of white and red.

Despite the fact that both Saiyans were really starting to tire, it was a spectacle to watch… but it didn't last long. Eventually, Kaido's wave made its way to Suna, knocking her out of the sky. Kaido was of course rather proud in that moment for having shown off all his ability, but he was still conflicted.

In the moments where he should've been celebrating, Kaido was instead flying to stop Suna from hitting the ground enough to actually get seriously hurt. Rather than take the assured victory, he made sure to (just barely) catch her in the air and bring her down to the floor of Arena B.

She was still conscious throughout all of this, she was just exhausted and bruised. More of her jumpsuit was visible than her actual Battle Armor, as the armor was quickly falling apart due to the fight. Now on the floor, she chose not to try getting up again. Instead, all she could do was laugh to herself. "Well, I got the fight I wanted."

Even if the laugh was dry and weak, it was infectious. Even though the fight was still not over, Kaido was already conversing with her like it was. "That you did. If what you wanted was just to get picked for Frieza's army, you're definitely catching their interest."

A whistle signifying the end of fight played after a few more moments of this, it was only then that he began to look for specific faces in the crowd.

Zorn was smiling, Artiko was cheering, and even the King looked a little impressed. However, simply looking at these faces of approval strangely wasn't enough. Something was missing. No, someone. He couldn't feel the intrigued presence of the Strangers.

They were nowhere to be seen.
