Senran Kagura: The Multi-King
Chapter 14: The Rivalry, an Eel, and the Gravity Combo
Poseidon is in a dark alleyway as he was talking to Dark Decade on his communicator, telling him of the kind of Yummy Gamel had created when he used the Special Cell Medal on himself.
"Interesting...so those Medals acted like a magnet which attracted most of Gamel's Core Medals, thus in turn mutating that said Yummy into a pseudo-Greeed that is capable of defying its Greeed's orders." Dark Decade said.
"It would appear so my lord." Poseidon said.
"Well this experiment of mine is becoming far more interesting now." Dark Decade said as he chuckles.
"Yes, but Mezool's is the only Special Cell Medal left. What should I do about that?" Poseidon asked.
"Leave her be and let her use it as she sees fit. As much as I like to have that Medal back, I want to see the kind of results her Special Yummy is capable of. So your orders are still the same, understand?" Dark Decade asked.
"Of course my lord." Poseidon said as he bows his head, before Dark Decade disconnect the connection.
Poseidon puts his communicator away as he leaves, but was unaware that Kazari was watching him from afar. While he didn't heard much of their conversation he had a curious look on his face, about who Poseidon was talking to.
"Well this is getting interesting." Kazari said before he leaves, walking in the opposite way from Poseidon.
(Cue Anything Goes by Maki Ohguro)
(You count the Medals: 1, 2 and 3 Life goes on, Anything Goes, Coming up OOO!) We start seeing the screen replaced with a rocky surface and the Taka Medal is on it followed by the Tora and Batta Medals. We then move to see OOO with a magnifying glass on him. As it goes on OOO, we see OOO with different parts. Finally, we see OOO in his default form posing behind the Tatoba symbol.
(Instrumental) A Cell Medal is flipped through the air by Yuuma as he soon catches it. He inserts the Medal in the Ride Vendor before allowing it to transform into a bike. Yuuma, as OOO, drives the bike down the street as the title appears.
(Inranai motanai yume mo minai FUREE na joutai sore me ii kedo {Kokkara hajimaru The show we're waiting for Count the Medals: 1, 2 and 3}) We then see Yuuma wandering a desert carrying his underwear tied to a stick, then changes to Asuka walking through a forest, and changes to Ankh was walking on a roof in the city. Yuuma placed his stick on the ground and relaxes while on the ground as Ankh (As an arm) flies around the screen before showing the Taka, Tora, and Batta Medals.
(Unmei wa kimi hottokanai kekkyoku wa susumu shika nai {Michi naru tenkai Give me energy Count the Medals: 1, 2 and 3}) Yuuma relaxes but gets up as he notices the Taka Medal and picks it up. Asuka notices the Tora Medal and picks it up while Ankh picks up the Batta Medal. The three stand back to back with their Medals as Ankh's arm files around the screen again before showing the three Core Medals again.
(Daijobu! Ashita wa itsudatte Blank!) The Greeed are showing placing their colored sheets on the beach as they appear relax. Asuka runs after Ankh but a red curtain gets in between them. Asuka tears it down to find Ankh gone.
(Jibun no kachi wa jibun de kimeru mono saa!) Ankh grabs a bunch of Cell Medals and looks at them while Yuuma stares at him. Yuuma looks at the Medals in his hand as Asuka looks at him. Yuuma soon uses the O-Scanner to scan the Taka, Tora, and Batta in his Driver.
"Henshin!" Yuuma says before transforming.
(OOO! OOO! OOO! OOO! COME ON!) We see OOO posing, then appearing in this chapter, then appearing on his Ride Vendor, and them him attacking. We then see him on the desert where he raises his arm out and several Medals burst out of the ground.
(Anything goes! Sono kokoro ga atsuku naru mono!) OOO drives his bike and the next thing we see are the Tatoba Medals appearing on Yuuma's hand with a smile. We then see him transforming into OOO. We then get a close up on his helmet.
(Mitasareru mono wo sagashite!) We see the Hanzo students on one side of a Taka Cell Medal, and the Serpent Academy students on the other side of the Cell Medal, between them are Hanzo, Kiriya, and Suzune.
(Life goes on! Honki dashite Tataku no Nara!) OOO gets his Tora claws out before charging. We then see OOO driving his bike being followed by several Taka and Tako Candroids, the Tako Candroids then form a ramp that OOO drives on which made him fly to the air with the Taka Candroids. Asuka hugs the red curtain; hugging Ankh from behind, Ankh then made a somewhat sad face.
(Maker ki shinai hazu!) We see the rest of the Greeed, including Poseidon, in front of their respective curtains. OOO gets the Medajalibur, charges it with three Cell Medals, and slashes the ground. As he slashed the ground, Medals burst from the ground and the song ends with the Tatoba Medals appearing from the ground to the screen.
The Hanzo students were now in the training room of their school, Yuuma wanted to test out the Grey Core Medals he found after defeating the Sai-Gorilla-Zou Yummy.
Yuuma was thinking of which of the Grey Core Medals he wanted to test out first as he was looking at them in the O Medal Holder.
"Which one...which one…" Yuuma mutters as he thinks on which Medal to try out first, before Katsuragi walks beside him and looks at the Medals as well.
"Why don't you try all three of them in the same time?" Katsuragi asked.
"Even if I wanted to, a Full Medal Combo drains too much of my stamina. So I want to see what each of these can do, before I try it." Yuuma told her.
"Hmm...alright if you say so." Katsuragi said as she begins to lean on him, and Yuuma slightly blushed as the pretty girl beside him was getting too close for personal.
"Umm...Katsu, can you step back please. You're a bit too close." Yuuma said and Katsuragi stare at him with a cheeky grin.
"Why?" Katsuragi asked with a seducing tone in her voice. "Do you not like me or something?"
"No it's not that…! It's just umm…" Yuuma mutters before Ikaruga pulled Katsuragi away from him.
"That's enough, Katsuragi. You shouldn't invade someone's personal space like that." Ikaruga scolded her.
"Oh come Ikaruga...Don't be a buzz kill…" Katsuragi said while pouting before she made a teasing grin as she turns to Ikaruga. "Unless you were just being jealous?"
Ikaruga slightly blushed when she said.
"No of course not! Why would I be jealous about that?!" Ikaruga exclaimed.
"Come on, don't even try to deny it." Katsuragi said.
"I am not!" Ikaruga said.
"Now, now, you two...let's try to calm down." Asuka said trying to defuse the situation.
Yuuma was slightly confused on what's going on, before he went back to pick out a Medal, and he soon made his first choice as he picks out the Sai Medal.
"I think I'll go for this one first." Yuuma said.
Yuuma was now standing in the middle of the room, wearing his O-Driver and soon brought out Tora, and Batta Medals before he inserted them with the Sai Medal, and soon scanned them with his Scanner.
"Henshin!"
SAI
TORA
BATTA
Yuuma transformed into OOO, with his head now colored white and is based around a rhino with a horn and has eye eyes and red jewel on the forehead, and has a rhino picture on the top of his crest.
"Hmm...A rhino, I wonder…" OOO said as he traced his fingers on the Sai head before he turns to Kiriya. "Hey sensei, can you give me something that's big and hard."
"Why of course." Kiriya said before he pulls a lever.
OOO looks around, looking for the object and didn't see it anywhere, before he heard a falling sound above him, which made OOO look up and saw a large rock falling towards him, seeing it surprised OOO and his friends.
"Oi wait, I didn't mean bring it like that!" OOO said while slightly panicking, before he calms down as he pointed his Sai Head at the large rock. "Oh screw it!"
Then the rock lands on top of OOO's head, and upon impact the rock cracks up until it broke apart in pieces. OOO and everyone in the room were surprised by that.
"Oh wow, I didn't even feel that." OOO said as he checks his head.
"So I guess that one, is good for headbutts? I don't see how that would be useful." Katsuragi said while scratching her finger on her head.
"Agreed." Yagyu said as she nods in agreement. "But that was proven wrong before, remember?"
"Yeah good point there." Katsuragi said.
"Alright, let's try this one out." OOO said as he brought out his Gorilla Medal, he soon removes his Sai and Tora Medals, replacing them with the Taka and Gorilla Medals before he scanned them.
TAKA
GORILLA
BATTA
OOO's head changes into the Taka Head, while his arms were now colored silver and has large shoulder guards with large gauntlets, and has a picture of a gorilla in the middle.
OOO looks at his Gorilla gauntlets and did a few punches with them.
"Considering how strong Sai is, I wonder if these are just as strong." OOO said.
"How about we find out." OOO looks and saw Katsuragi walking to him before she stops to stretch out her legs. "And I'll be more than happy to be your sparring partner. Is that alright, Kiriya-sensei?"
"I don't see why not." Kiriya said.
"Are you sure, Katsu? I mean I don't want to risk hurting you." OOO said.
"Oh don't be a worry wart. I'll be fine." Katsuragi said with a smile.
OOO thought about it before nodded to accept her offer.
"Alright if you insist." OOO said before he enters a combat stance. "Then give it your best shot."
"Gladly!" Katsuragi said before she jumps at OOO and kicks at him.
OOO blocks her kick with his Gorilla gauntlet before he pushed her leg away and punches at Katsuragi, and she dodges it by bending her back backwards before she did a few back flips. Then Katsuragi did a few summersaults as she heads towards OOO, and throws a spin kick at OOO and he blocks her attack, and punches at Katsuragi a few times, and she dodges his punches, and she soon counters by kicking at OOO many times, and the Rider parries and dodges her kicks, and soon saw an opening and punches at her, and she blocks it in time using both of her arms but was sent skidding backwards.
Katsuragi flicks her arms to shake off the pain of the impact of OOO's punch.
Katsuragi then charges at OOO and kicks at him again, and OOO counters by punching at her kick, and their attacks clashed against each other and they were in even ground, until OOO channels energy into his gauntlet and it soon flies off of his arm like a missile which pushed Katsuragi back as she was sent into the air before she landed on her feet and OOO's Gorilla gauntlet returns to his arm.
"Oh wow, that was pretty awesome." OOO said as he was surprised on what he just did with this gauntlet as he looks at it.
"Yeah no kidding…" Katsuragi said as she rubs her leg. "And I have to say those gloves sure do pack a wallop."
"Are you alright, Katsu?" OOO asked being a little worried.
"I'm fine, it was nothing I couldn't handle." Katsuragi assured him.
"That's a relief." OOO said in relief before he brought out the Zou Medal. "Alright, now for this one."
OOO soon changes back to his Tora Medal, and replaced his Batta Medal with the Zou one as he inserted it into his Driver as he scanned it.
TAKA
TORA
ZOU
OOO arms parts changes into the Tora parts, his legs were now in the different shape and form. While having a picture of a elephant on the bottom of his crest, OOO now has large greaves on the front of his shins and they are shape as an elephant's head.
"Hmmm...so it's a elephant this time. Very interesting." Kiriya said while wondering what that Medal can do.
"Yeah, but still though I wonder how to use this one." OOO said before he had a idea. "Maybe if I take a step…"
OOO lifts up one of his legs as high as he can before he brought it down to the floor...which cause a small earthquake as the school above them shook and the students slightly lost their balance, and Ankh who was in the library in the shinobi classroom, to study what he can about shinobis, felt the quake too as he fallen to the floor and the scrolls and books fell on top of him.
Ankh growls as he clicks his tongue, having a good idea on what cause the quake.
"That Yuuma…" Ankh growls as he removes a scroll that was on his face.
OOO and the others in the training room were a little shaken by the quake he had cause.
"Well I wasn't expecting that." OOO said as he looks at his Zou legs. "Looks like I need to be careful with this one."
"Yeah I say…" Katsuragi said in agreement.
OOO then brought out the Sai and Gorilla Medals, and soon nods as he decided to use them along with the Zou Medal.
"Alright, I'm gonna try a Full Medal Combo with these. So just be careful." OOO told the others.
"You got it." They told him.
"Alright…" OOO said as he removes the Taka and Tora Medals, and soon replaces them for the Sai and Gorilla Medals, and OOO drew out his O-Scanner. "Here goes nothing."
OOO soon scans the Medals.
SAI
GORILLA
ZOU
Sagouzo...Sa-Gou-Zo!
OOO parts now changed into the Sai and Gorilla, now along with the Zou leg parts. This is OOO's Sagouzo Combo - the Gravity Combo.
"Okay, now let's see what this form can do." Kiriya said as he pulls on a lever and soon training dummies appeared in front of OOO.
After feeling the overwhelming power of this newest Combo, OOO roars loudly as he bangs his Gorilla gauntlets on his chest. The girls and Kiriya covered their ears to block OOO's loud roar and banging.
"Ow! My ears!" Hibari cries out.
"Man does he really need to be that loud?!" Katsuragi shouted.
Ikaruga soon notices something as OOO was roaring and banging his arms on his chest.
"Everyone, look!" Ikaruga said which made the others look.
OOO is now making shockwaves with each bang on his chest, which soon levitated the the training dummies in front of him with some of the fragments from the floor beneath the dummies as the floor broke apart.
OOO then made the dummies crashed into each other before they fallen back to the ground.
OOO then made another loud roar which created a shockwave that levitated the fragments of the floor, and making them slashed and pierce the dummies.
OOO then fired his Gorilla gauntlets at the training dummies destroying as they were smashed into pieces.
"Impressive. But let's see how you'll handle this one." Kiriya said as he pulled on another lever, which soon brought out a large training dummy as it appeared from the floor.
The training dummy was taller than OOO, as it looks down at him, and was quite large and buckley.
OOO then brought out his O-Scanner and scanned his Driver with it.
SCANNING CHARGE
OOO then brought his feet together and soon levitated up in the air, much to everyone's surprise as they watch. OOO then lands back to the floor, which created shockwaves beneath his feet and the shockwaves reach beneath the dummy's feet, the floor and its fragment repaired themselves and in the same time entrapping the dummy as its feet were now in trap in the floor.
Then the large training dummy was being dragged to OOO, and the medal-theme Rider readies his fist and horn as he pulled them back before energy channels around them, and when the dummy was close enough…
"Seiya!" OOO slam his fists and horn at the dummy, destroying it as it exploded.
When the explosion died down, the floor fully repaired itself and OOO was panting. Katsuragi did a impressed whistle after seeing OOO using the power of the Sagouzo Combo.
"Man that was something…" Katsuragi said.
"Agreed." Ikaruga nodded in agreement.
OOO soon changes back into Yuuma as he fallen on his hands and knees.
"Yuuma-kun!" Asuka said in worry as she run up to check on him. "Are you alright?"
"Yeah...just a little tired...mind helping me, please?" Yuuma requested, and Asuka nodded before she helps him stand on his feet with his arm on her shoulders and helps him walk to the others.
As they were walking, Kiriya's eyes were focused on Yuuma.
'To think he could be that powerful by using those Full Combo forms. Makes me wonder what would happen if all of these Core Medals are brought together.' Kiriya thought.
(Later)
After training was done, Yuuma, the Hanzo shinobi students, Kiriya, and Ankh were now gathered in the main room of their classroom, and Yuuma was seated on the floor as he placed a ice pack on his forehead.
"So do you always get this tired, after using those Full Combos?" Katsuragi asked.
"A little bit, yeah...but I think I'm getting use to it…" Yuuma mutters.
"But it was still stupid of you to use a Full Medal Combo for mere training. What would happen if a Yummy were to appear, while you're too tired to even stand?" Ankh scolded him, which made Asuka to glare at him.
"Oh stop being so cocky!" Asuka said getting Ankh's attention as she walks in front of him. "The only reason Yuuma-kun is in this mess, is because you force him into it. But at least he's still helping you collecting the Medals, while you're staying on the sidelines like a coward."
"What was that…!" Ankh growled in anger as he brought out his Greeed Arm.
"Hey you two! You shouldn't fight!" Yuuma said trying to play peacekeeper for them. "Also Asuka-chan, it may be true that Ankh force me into becoming OOO, but I still might have accepted it even if he didn't."
"But Yuuma-kun…" Asuka said and Yuuma gave her assured smile, which made Asuka sigh. "Alright…"
Asuka gave Ankh one last glare before she huffed and walked away from him, and Ankh scoffed as he lean onto the wall. Ankh then eyed on Yuuma.
'But still though, to think he was able to handle not just Gatakiriba and Latorartar, but also the Sagouzo Combo. Makes me wonder if he'll reach his level…' Ankh thought before he remembers a memory where he was attack by someone, who he had once trusted but was betrayed, he soon shook the memory out of his head. 'Doesn't matter to me, it will just mean he'll be more useful of collecting the Medals for me.'
"Man I think I'm going lay down for a minute…" Yuuma sighs which made Katsuragi have a idea.
"Okay, and Yuuma if you want you can always lay your head on my…" Katsuragi said while looking away shyly.
"Eh? Yagyu-chan, what are you doing?" Yuuma asked, which made Katsuragi and the others look and saw Yuuma laying on the floor with his head on Yagyu's lap.
"What? Do you not like this feeling?" Yagyu asked.
"No it's not that...It's just umm…" Yuuma said and wasn't sure on what to say next.
"Yagyu…!" Katsuragi growled as she walks to them. "Just what the hell do you think you're doing?!"
"What does it look like? I'm lending him my lap. Weren't you going to do the same?" Yagyu asked.
"Well...maybe, but that's besides the point! You hadn't called it yet!" Katsuragi stated.
"Yeah I agree, Yagyu-chan." Hibari said before she pouted. "You could have at least let me have my turn first…"
"I'm sorry, Hibari. But I'll let you go next, after I'm done." Yagyu said.
"Eh? Wait, Yagyu-chan, you can't just say that without my…" Yuuma started.
"Really?" Hibari asked and Yagyu nodded." Yay, thank you, Yagyu-chan."
"Hey, how is that fair?!" Katsuragi exclaimed.
'And why am I the center of attention in this?' Yuuma thought, he was going to sit up, but Yagyu placed her hand on his head and gently but firmly held him down on her lap.
"Everyone, you shouldn't fight like that!" Ikaruga said.
"Yeah, Ikaruga-san is right. Let's try to calm down." Asuka said hoping that's they'll listen to their words.
"Oh come on you two! You should be on my side!" Katsuragi stated.
"Why should we be on anyone's side, Katsuragi?" Ikaruga asked, and Katsuragi soon made a grin on her face.
"Oh don't try to deny it. You were planning on letting Yuuma lay his head on your lap too, weren't you?" Katsuragi asked, which made Ikaruga to slightly blushed.
"No of course not! Why would I even do that?!" Ikaruga exclaimed.
"Because you want to, stop denying it." Katsuragi said.
"I am not!" Ikaruga said.
"Ikaruga-san! Katsu-nee! Please you two shouldn't fight like this." Asuka said as the two 3rd years continue to argue against each other.
"Oh boy…" Yuuma sweat drop as he saw Ikaruga and Katsuragi arguing against each other. "Hey, Yagyu-chan, I think we should stop, things are getting a little out of hand."
Yagyu ponders about it after seeing the situation, and she nodded.
"Good point." Yagyu said as she let's go of his head.
"Oh thank goodness…" Yuuma sighs in relief as he sits up, but when he did Hibari grabs onto his head and brought him down on her lab.
"Alright, now it's my turn." Hibari said in happiness, which made the others turn to them.
"Eh? Hibari-chan wait, I don't think this is a good idea!" Yuuma said before Asuka, Ikaruga, and Katsuragi soon started to say…
"No, dang it...now it's Hibari…" Katsuragi growled before she turns at Ikaruga. "This is your fault, Ikaruga! You must have plan on this with Yagyu, and Hibari, so you'll be next!"
"Don't be ridiculous I would never do something like that!" Ikaruga said.
"Sure you would!" Katsuragi said not sounding convinced.
"Oh come on, you guys...can't we calm down please." Asuka said.
"Asuka, you should be on my side on this!" Katsuragi stated.
"I'm on no one's side here!" Asuka said.
As they argue Yuuma sweat drop while wondering if this will end, and was worried if this will end badly for all of them. Kiriya hummed as he watch, while Ankh didn't pay attention as he looks at his phone.
"I see, so this is youth." Kiriya said as he nodded a few times.
(Meanwhile)
In the Kougami Foundation, Kougami in his office was now counting up the current Core Medals that is in both Yuuma's and Ankh's possession, along with Goto and his secretary Satonaka.
"Now OOO has three Green Medals, three Yellow Medals, and three Grey Medals. Along with the two Red and Blue Medals, that gives him around 13 Core Medals...Subarashii! With this, OOO now has three Full Combos to access to, this will no doubt give him new levels of power!" Kougami said in excitement.
"But sir!" Goto calls out getting Kougami's attention as he turned to him. "Wouldn't this also mean that OOO is more dangerous than ever? You once told me, that his power is dangerous if it's in the wrong hands. So why would you continue to support him?"
"Goto-kun!" Kougami said. "I understand your worries about OOO. But don't forget he's a important asset. We still need OOO's power to defeat the Greeed. So we must continue to support, in order to achieve our own goals. Do you understand?"
Goto frown in anger but he soon nodded in resignation.
"Of course, sir…" Goto grumbled.
"Good, now you may leave." Kougami said, and Goto soon leaves the room.
"You sure this was a good idea, president?" Satonaka asked.
"Goto-kun is still young. He'll come around in time." Kougami said.
"If you say so." Satonaka shrugged.
Goto is now walking down the hallway, as he was walking Kougami's words still echoes in his head as he remembers the times where OOO had fought against the Yummies and Greeeds.
"We need OOO's power to defeat the Greeed."
Goto then remembered OOO using the power of each Core Medal and using a Full Combo.
"Your job is simple to continue observation."
Then he remembers the times he helped Yuuma, and that time he had given him the Lion Medal.
"You're doing this to help save the world."
Goto stops walking and then he punches on the wall in frustration.
"If only I have that power…" Goto growls.
(With Kazari and Maki)
Kazari is in Maki's lab, and was telling him about Poseidon's talk with this Dark Decade.
"Interesting...so you're saying this Poseidon is working with someone?" Maki said.
"Yeah, but he didn't say his name, he only called him, his lord." Kazari told him. "But I know for a fact, that this lord of his must have made those Special Cell Medals."
"Which only leaves one question then." Maki said as he looks at his doll before he turns to Kazari. "Do you think that he should still be trusted?"
"Hard to say, really." Kazari said as he shrugged. "But it doesn't matter to me. Just as long as he still proves to be a useful ally to me, and to the others."
"True, but for me," Maki said as he looks at a video of the four previous Special Yummies that were created by each Greeed by using the Special Cell Medals. "I'm mostly interested on seeing, on what kind of Yummy that Mezool will create with the last one."
"Same with me too." Kazari said in agreement.
(Meanwhile somewhere else)
Inside of a building, several young actresses were seated on a line of chairs and were sitting in front of the production staff of a movie that will be directed by a famous director, name Ryuta Tasaki.
These actresses were auditioning for the lead female role for this movie.
This will be a big chance for new actresses like these young women to make a name for themselves, and one of them is Yuriko Sano, a 19 year old young woman, with long blond hair and sky blue eyes, wearing a white shirt with a blue jacket and a short jean skirt with long black socks and white shoes.
"Alright," One of the movie staff stands up with. "We will announce the verdict."
Most of the actresses prayed for it to be one of their names, and Yuriko prayed for it the most, and was hoping for it to be her name.
'Please let it be me...let it be me…!' Yuriko thought.
"The one who won is...Reiko Sasaki." Yuriko's eyes widen in shock, as this Reiko stands up as she cheers while most of the others groan in disappointment, and Yuriko was mostly devastated by this.
"Yes! Thank you!"
"We're truly sorry everyone. You all did your best, but don't worry, this doesn't mean anything, you're all very talented and word working. So I'm sure you'll get another chance like this. Just continue what you're doing and keep doing your best."
This cheered up most of the other participants, except for Yuriko who was still devastated.
After the audition was over, Yuriko return to her apartment room and didn't even bother to take off her shoes or change clothes as she walks to her bed, she only fallen on her bed as she cries on it.
"Damn it...not again…" Yuriko mutters as she continues to cry.
This has been the five time in a row where Yuriko had failed to won the lead role of a movie. Not only that she also failed to win lead roles for TV shows, and stage shows, the best she could get was small roles for support characters.
What Yuriko wants the most is the lead role of a show or movie.
"Just why does this keep happening to me…? I work harder than anyone...I'm the most talented but why do I always...lose like this? I want to be the best...I need to be the best…" Yuriko mutters.
"That is a good desire." Yuriko blinks before she turns around and saw Mezool standing behind her.
"Who are you? How did you get in here?" Yuriko asked before Mezool walks to her.
"Let's just say, I'm someone who can you make all of your dreams come true." Mezool said as she brought out the last Special Cell Medal, and a slot appeared on Yuriko's forehead, and she soon inserted into her…
Yuriko was sleeping on her bed before she started to woke and saw it was already morning.
"What…" Yuriko said as her head feels a little foggy. "Oh yeah, I've failed to get that role...I must have cried myself to sleep."
Yuriko sighs before she slap her hands on her cheeks before she stands up.
"Alright! No more being sad about it! I just need to keep on looking, and hope that I'll win a new lead role." Yuriko swore to herself before she heads to the bathroom to wash up.
As she left, Yuriko didn't notice as a Yummy nest is on the corner ceiling of her apartment, as it was slowly growing and inside the Special Cell Medal begins to glow as it was channeling small sparks of electricity around it.
(With Yuuma)
Before they could head to Hanzo Academy, Yuuma and Asuka were getting groceries they need for Cous Coussier after accepting a request from Chiyoko, to restock some of the supplies. After they had gotten what they needed, Asuka and Yuuma were walking Cous Coussier to deliver the bags of groceries to Chiyoko.
"I'm really sorry, that me and my aunt are pushing you too hard, Yuuma-kun." Asuka told him.
"Oh don't worry about it. It's fine, I'm used to these kind of things when I'm doing multiple jobs." Yuuma assured her.
"That's good to hear." Asuka said as she smiles.
As they were walking, someone was spying on them in the shadows before she suddenly made her move and run behind and hug onto Yuuma.
"Eh?" Yuuma gasped in surprise before he felt a soft sensation on his back which made him blush before he and Asuka looks and saw it was Katsuragi.
"Katsu?!/Katsu-nee?!" Yuuma and Asuka said in surprise.
"Hey Yuuma, so this is where you were." Katsuragi said as he pressed herself closer to Yuuma.
"Hey what do you think you're doing?" Yuuma asked as he tries to ignore the soft sensation on his back.
"Well, I thought we could walk to school together. But I found you weren't in Cous Coussier, so I come looking for you." Katsuragi told him, but she was lying, she had been spying on him and Asuka when they left the restaurant and was waiting to make her move.
"B-But you didn't have to do that…" Yuuma stated.
"Oh come don't be like that. Don't you like my accompany?" Katsuragi asked.
"N-No it's not that! It's umm…" Yuuma mutters trying to think of something, before Asuka pulls him out of Katsuragi's hold, freeing him.
"You really should stop doing that to Yuuma-kun, Katsu-nee." Asuka told her.
"Oh come on Asuka, there's no reason to be jealous." Katsuragi told her with a teasing grin on her face, and Asuka slightly blushed when she said that.
"I am not being jealous!" Asuka said in denial.
"Sure you were." Katsuragi said not being convinced by that.
"I am!" Asuka exclaimed.
"Hey you two, let's try to calm down here." Yuuma said trying to play peacekeeper here.
"Stay out of this!" Asuka and Katsuragi told him in the same time, which made Yuuma flinch before he nodded before the two started arguing again.
'Dang it...I just don't understand what's going on here.' Yuuma thought in worry as he watches his two friends argue.
(Meanwhile)
Yuriko is seen waiting in line with other would be actresses, standing in front of a stage theater, for an audition for a stage show. After finding out about this audition, Yuriko immediately arrive here to try out for the audition to hope to win the lead role.
'You can do this Yuriko...You can do this...you must win, you have to win…' Yuriko kept on telling herself, and as her desire grow larger, so did the Medals in the Yummy nest and the Special Cell Medal glow brighter as more electricity channels around it.
Then three of the eggs fall from the nest and they immediately hatches and grown into Yummies.
They head humanoid buddies and has the head of eels, and they were colored blue, and has fins on their backs, and has sharp teeth.
These are the Unagi Yummies.
The Unagi Yummies then leaves the apartment room, heading to where Yuriko was.
(Back with Yuuma)
Yuuma along with Asuka, and Katsuragi are now heading their school after dropping off the groceries in Cous Coussier, and as they were walking Katsuragi and Asuka still continues to argue with each other, as Yuuma just watch them go on.
"Hey are you still here, Katsu-nee?" Asuka asked.
"What? I just want to walk with Yuuma same as you. Don't tell me you're jealous?" Katsuragi asked with a teasing grin.
"I am not!" Asuka answered in denial.
"Don't even try to deny it!" Katsuragi said as she started to grope with Asuka's chest.
"Wait stop Katsu-nee! You know how much I hate that!" Asuka said, before she notices Yuuma was watching with his face blushing. "Yuuma-kun, don't look please!"
"Oh sorry!" Yuuma said as he quickly looks away.
"Oh don't be like that Yuuma. Give in to your hormones and keep watching." Katsuragi urge him as she continues to play with Asuka's chest.
"I'm good thank you…" Yuuma mutters while waving his hand which made Katsuragi to pout.
They soon heard a familiar robotic bird cry, which made them look up and saw a Taka Candroid flying at them while holding a Batta Candroid before the Taka Candroid drops the Batta Candroid before it transformed into its batta mode as Yuuma catches it with his hand.
"Yuuma, there's a Yummy." Ankh said through the Batta Candroid, which gotten their attention and Katsuragi let's go of Asuka's chest. "The Taka Candroid will lead you to where it is."
"Alright, got it." Yuuma nodded before he looks around and found a Ride Vendor nearby and he runs to it, he then inserted a Cell Medal into the Vendor and pressed a button, and it soon transformed into its bike mode.
Yuuma got on the bike and puts on a helmet, before the Taka Candroid started to fly to the location to where this Yummy is.
"Sorry you two, can you tell the others that I might be late for school today?" Yuuma asked.
"No we're going with you." Asuka said.
"Yeah! After all, you might need help getting people to safety." Katsuragi said, this surprise Yuuma as he blink a few times.
"Are you two sure? I mean, it might be far away." Yuuma stated.
"We'll be fine, don't worry about it." Asuka said before she and Katsuragi jumps and lands on the top of a nearby building and proceeded to follow the Taka Candroid by jumping to rooftop to rooftop in incredible speed, while Yuuma was watching them in awe.
"Huh...I sometimes forget that they're ninjas…" Yuuma mutters in awe before he shook his head and proceeded in following the Taka Candroid as well, as he drives on the street, riding on his Ride Vendor.
Goto is in a gym and was running on a treadmill, for training, and after running for about 30 minutes he soon turns off the treadmill as he stops to catch his breath.
Goto then grabs onto a bottle of water and soon drinks it, before he saw someone through the window in front of him, and it was Yuuma riding on a Ride Vendor, driving down the street.
"OOO? It must be a Yummy." Goto realized before he was about to leave and follow him, but soon stops as he remembers Kougami's words.
"We need OOO's power to defeat the Greeed."
"Your job is simple to continue observation."
"You're doing this to help save the world."
Goto clicks his tongue as he shook his head to shake those words out of his head, before he continues to leave the gym.
With Yuriko, she was now standing in line in front of the stage for the lead role audition, and was still in the middle of it, as several other actresses had try out before her in front of the stage directors.
Yuriko is a little worried, she seen a few who were good actors and rehearsed the lines very well and accurate. But Yuriko refused to back down, and kept on being strong.
'I can do this...I can do this…! I will not let them beat me!' Yuriko swore to herself.
"Alright, next!" Yuriko opens her eyes and saw that she was now next.
Yuriko nodded before he walks on top of the stage, but before she could rehearse the lines from the script. They soon heard screams, and everyone looks and saw the Unagi Yummies, attacking the other actress participants.
Yuriko and the others in the building were frightened by this as they scream and run away from the Yummies.
They manage to run outside as the Unagi Yummies followed them as they continue to attack the other actresses.
Soon Yuuma, Asuka, and Katsuragi soon arrived at the theater, and saw the Yummies attacking the actresses.
"We've made it. Asuka-chan, Katsu, I'll handle the Yummies you take care of the people." Yuuma told the two shinobis.
"You got it." Asuka and Katsuragi nodded.
Yuuma puts on his Driver and brought out the Taka, Tora, and Batta, Medals and inserted them into his Driver, and scanned them with his Scanner.
"Henshin!"
TAKA
TORA
BATTA
TATOBA! TA-TO-BA, TATOBA!
Yuuma transformed into OOO and soon runs at the Yummies and Asuka and Katsuragi followed behind him.
One of the actresses fallen to the ground as she trip, she soon saw one of the Unagi Yummies walking towards her, which made her scream in fear as the Yummy got ready to attack her before Asuka grabs onto her and pulled out of its attack path.
"Come on, this way!" Asuka said as she drags that actress away from the Yummy.
Another Unagi Yummy was choking on another actress with both of its hands around her neck, before Katsuragi kicks the Yummy off of her.
"Go get to safety!" Katsuragi told her, and she nodded before she runs away.
As the third Unagi Yummy was following three groups of actresses, OOO jumps at the Yummy and punches it sending the Unagi Yummy to stumble backwards.
OOO soon brought out his Tora Claws, before he kicks and slashed on that said Unagi Yummy.
As Asuka was guiding the other people to safety, she soon notices Yuriko trips as she fallen to the ground as a Unagi Yummy slowly marches towards her.
"Hang on, I'm coming!" Asuka calls out before she runs to Yuriko.
"No stay away!" Yuriko demanded as the Unagi Yummy was getting closer to her...and it soon walks by her as the Yummy's attention was towards another actress before it runs to her.
This surprised both Asuka and Yuriko, before the young shinobi knelt down to Yuriko to check on her.
"Are you okay?" Asuka asked.
"Yes...I think so…" Yuriko mutters.
Asuka then looks back at the Unagi Yummy before she looks back at Yuriko.
'Why did that Yummy ignored her?' Asuka thought before she realized why that Unagi Yummy did that. 'Wait, could she be the host?'
As OOO slashed on the Unagi Yummy's chest, he then saw the other two Yummies attacking a few of the other actresses.
"Dang it, this isn't getting me anywhere…" OOO growled in frustration before he soon saw Ankh riding on a Ride Vendor had arrived. "Ankh!"
Ankh took off his helmet and saw the Unagi Yummies.
"One of Mezool's…" Ankh said before he brought out the Medal Holder and pulls out the Unagi Medal. "Yuuma, use this!"
Ankh throws the Medal at OOO before he catches it.
"Oh I see. Thanks, Ankh!" OOO said before he changes Medal and rescanned his Driver.
TAKA
UNAGI
BATTA
OOO arms changes to the Unagi parts as he brought out his Unagi Whips. Then OOO used his Whips as he hurls them at the other two Unagi Yummies before he ensnared them with his Whips, before he swings the Yummies around, and soon slam them between the third Unagi Yummy and OOO soon channels electricity through his whips which electrocuted them.
"Alright!" OOO said, while not noticing that Goto riding on a Ride Vendor had soon arrived as well before he saw OOO, already taking care of the Yummies.
"So I wasn't needed again…" Goto growled in frustration.
While Asuka and Katsuragi smiled as OOO manage to stop the Unagi Yummies, Yuriko had her eyes on the theater and saw the damage state it was in, this will no doubt canceled the auditions for today and won't start again for a while, which made Yuriko looked down in despair.
'Damn it...it happened again...why does this always happen to me? I needed this!' Yuriko thought and as her feelings grow so did her desire, and with that the Yummy Nest in her apartment started to grow as more Cell Medals are being created, and the Special Cell Medal started to grow brighter and brighter as electricity appeared around it and its power reaches around the Nest and it reach the Unagi Yummies as they stand up.
Then the Unagi Yummies eyes started to glow before they created a shockwave which slightly pushed OOO back as he retracted his Unagi Whips.
Then they did something shocking for OOO and his allies, they soon started to create more copies of themselves.
"What the…?" OOO gasped.
"Nani?!" Ankh gasped in shock as well.
There were now 15 Unagi Yummies adding the three original Unagi Yummies, before they roared as five of them charged at OOO.
They soon attack at OOO, and the Medal theme Rider parried and dodges their attacks, before one of them lands a punch with electricity around it on his chest, which made OOO to stumble back at another Unagi Yummy before it kicks him to the ground.
"Yuuma-kun!" Asuka said, she was about to run and help him but was cut off by three Unagi Yummies, as one of them attacks her, she dodges it by back flipping before they soon got in front of her.
"Asuka!" Katsuragi said before she dodges attack from one of the other Unagi Yummies before she kicks it away, but soon two more run in front of her. "Dang it…"
On top of a building nearby, Poseidon was watching the battle and was pretty amazed that the Unagi Yummies created copies of themselves.
"Interesting...this is certainly a turn of events." Poseidon said.
"I agree," Poseidon looks and saw an Aurora Curtain behind him, and coming out was Dark Decade. "This is turning out better than I thought."
"Dark Decade, you're here. But why?" Poseidon asked before Dark Decade stops beside him as he looks at the battle of OOO and his allies against the Unagi Yummies.
"I want to see the results of this last experiment of mine, up close and personal. Is that a problem, Poseidon?" Dark Decade asked, and Poseidon bows his head.
"Of course not, sir." Poseidon answered.
Dark Decade smirks as both Dark Riders watch the battle.
"Then let's just sit back and watch, to see what happens next." Dark Decade said.
As OOO and the two shinobis were now busy, the other Yummies soon spotted another actress who was on the ground and was too scared to even move, they soon move towards her.
OOO soon saw the those Unagi Yummies moving towards the petrified actress.
"Oh no…!" OOO said before he stands up and runs to the actress. "Hurry, you need to run now!"
When he wasn't looking, one of the Unagi Yummies jumps to OOO before it grabs onto him as he falls to the ground.
As Asuka throws one of the Unagi Yummies to the ground, she saw the actress in danger as well, and she wasn't looking the other two Yummies created two more copies of themselves before they tackled on top of Asuka as she fallen to the ground as the Yummies on top of her pinned her down.
As Katsuragi did a spinning kick at two Yummies, she soon spotted OOO and Asuka now in trouble.
"Asuka! Yuuma!" Katsuragi said as she runs to them, then suddenly the Unagi Yummies that was behind her created several more copies of themselves that reach in front of Katsuragi blocking her path, before she saw that they now have her surrounded. "Damn it…!"
Goto quickly got off his bike, and pulled out a small bazooka and a gun before he runs at the Yummies that were approaching the actress and soon fire at them, and when his bullets lands on the Unagi Yummies they stop walking as Goto got in between the Yummies path towards the actress as he face them.
"Goto-san?" OOO said in surprise as he tries to push off the Unagi Yummy that was on top of him.
"You get away from her!" Goto demanded as he fires at the Unagi Yummies in front of him.
But his bullets were ineffective as the Unagi Yummies walks at Goto, and Goto soon run out of bullets, he clicks his tongue before he throws his gun away and was going to use his bazooka, but was too late as one of the Yummies punch him, sending him to ground before the Unagi Yummies started to kick on him.
"Goto-san!" OOO said, before he lands a strong elbow strike on the Unagi Yummy that was on top of him, on its head, which forces that said Yummy to let go of OOO long enough for him to turn at it and presseed both of his feet on the Yummy's chest.
OOO soon channels energy through his Batta Legs as he kicks the Unagi Yummy off of him as it was now sent flying before it lands on the ground.
OOO soon stands back up and saw the situation around him, he soon have a idea on how to even the odds against these Yummies, before he turns to Ankh.
"Ankh, we need Gatakiriba for this one!" OOO told him.
Ankh clicks his tongue, knowing that he's right.
"No choice here…" Ankh said before he brought out the Kamakiri and Kuwagata Medals. "Catch!"
Ankh throws the Green Medals to OOO, and he catches them. OOO soon changes Medals and soon scanned them.
KUWAGATA
KAMAKIRI
BATTA
Ga~ta-Gata-Gata-Kiri, Ba! Gatakiriba!
OOO changes into his Gatakiriba Combo. OOO soon created several clones of himself to the exact same number of the Unagi Yummies before they charge at each of them.
(Cue: Got To Keep It Real by Shu Watanabe)
First the OOOs gone to save Goto as they slashed the Unagi Yummies that were beating on him away from, and one of the clones knelt down to Goto as he sits up using his hands before OOO placed his hand on his shoulder.
"Goto-san, are you alright?" OOO asked, and Goto pushed his hand off of his shoulder.
"Just get off of me!" Goto said in spite.
"I'll take that as a yes." OOO said before he joins his clones to battle against the Unagi Yummies.
As Goto watches OOO battle against the Unagi Yummies, he punches on the ground in frustration, anger by the fact that OOO saved him and how powerless he really is.
Then the OOOs helped Asuka as they manage to get the Yummies that were on top of her off of her, and soon battles against them except for one who offered his hand to the young shinobi.
"You okay?" OOO asked, before Asuka smiles as she grabs onto her hand.
"Yeah, thanks Yuuma-kun…" Asuka said as OOO helps her stand up.
"Good. Also Asuka-chan, can you watch over Goto-san, and that girl for me?" OOO asked.
"You got it." Asuka nodded.
"Thanks!" OOO said before he gone to battle against the Unagi Yummies with his clones, and Asuka heads to Goto and the actress.
Then another group of OOOs slashed against the Unagi Yummies that was around Katsuragi, sending them away from her before one of them stops and looks at her, and Katsuragi have him a wink and a thumbs as a way of saying thanks, and that OOO smiles before he gave her a thumbs up as well before he rejoins the other in battling against the Unagi Yummies.
As the OOOs lands attack on the Unagi Yummies they created more copies of themselves, as they did OOO created more copies of himself to even the odds as they slashed on recently created Yummies.
After a even battle against the Unagi Yummies, the OOOs finally manage to over power the Yummies as they destroyed a few of them one at a time with each attack, and soon the surviving Unagi Yummies were now surrounded by the OOOs.
(End of song)
"Alright, time to finished this!" The original OOO said as he pulls out his O-Scanner to activate to his finishing attack.
Before he could that Goto still continues to watch, and is now feeling more frustrated than ever, before he stands up and runs to the Yummies and OOOs.
"Hey, wait Goto-san!" Asuka said as she watches him.
OOO scanned his Driver.
SCANNING CHARGE
OOO and his clones jumps into the air and flies at the Unagi Yummies aiming a kick at them, and as OOO and his clones were flying at the Unagi Yummies, Goto soon readies his bazooka and aimed it at the Yummies, Ankh, Asuka and Katsuragi saw it and soon realized what he was going to do.
"Wait, he is planning on…" Katsuragi said before Asuka shouted.
"Wait, don't do it!" Asuka runs at Goto to stop him, and Ankh flies out of his body and fly at Goto to stop him as well.
But was too late as Goto fired at the Unagi Yummies, in the same time OOO and his clones collided against them, creating an explosion and OOO, his clones, and the Unagi Yummies were caught in it.
OOO's clones were destroyed, and the original OOO was sent rolling on the ground before he reverted back into Yuuma, but he was now slightly injured and tired.
"Yuuma-kun!" Asuka cries out before she runs to him and soon knelt down to check on him. "Are you alright?"
"Yeah...don't worry it's nothing...but can you help me up though?" Yuuma requested as he sits up and Asuka nodded, before she helps him stand back up with his arm on her shoulders.
Goto was panting as he looks and saw that all of the Unagi Yummies were now destroyed only leaving their Cell Medals behind.
"I did it…" Goto said.
"Hey!" Goto looks and Ankh flying in front of him. "What were you thinking?! You could have killed Yuuma!"
"I was just doing my job. It's not my fault he'd gotten in my way." Goto told the rogue Greeed.
This angered Katsuragi as she walks to Goto and grabs onto his shirt and made him look at her, showing her angry face as she glares at him.
"What was that you bastard?! I dare you to say that again!" Katsuragi exclaimed as she aims a fist at him, ready to give him a piece of her mind.
"Wait, Katsu don't!" Katsuragi, Ankh, and Goto turns to Yuuma as he and Asuka walks to them. "Don't hurt him, please."
"But Yuuma…" Katsuragi said.
"Look I don't mind what he said. It's alright." Yuuma assured her.
This surprised Katsuragi when he said that, before she glares at Goto in anger as she grit her teeth. She then closed her eyes as she lowered her head, and while letting go of Goto as she turned away from him.
"Goto-san, why would you do that though?" Asuka asked getting his attention as he turns to her. "I thought you and Yuuma-kun are suppose to be working together."
"You just can't understand!" Goto exclaimed before he turns away from them. "The reason why I join up with Kougami-san is to save the world. He told me how the Greeeds are a danger to the world, and he once said the same thing about OOO."
"What? But Yuuma-kun isn't like that." Asuka stated.
"Even so I still see him as a threat, and not to mention he's working with one of the Greeeds. But despite that Kougami-san still continues to support him, even though he's dangerous." Goto stated. "If only...if only I was the one who has OOO's power…!"
"Goto-san…" Yuuma mutters as he was surprise that he feels that way.
"You just don't know what it's like to be powerless…" Goto said, when he said that, Yuuma remembers that time he couldn't save that girl in Africa.
Goto then walks to his bike to leave.
"Wait, Goto-san!" Yuuma calls out which made Goto stop walking.
"What is it?" Goto asked.
"If you want, I can give you the OOO-Driver." Yuuma said which surprised all of them before Goto and the others turn to him.
"Nani?" Goto gasped.
"Wait, Yuuma-kun are you really serious?" Asuka asked.
"Yeah, if he wants it that badly, I don't really mind giving it to him." Yuuma said.
Goto was left stunned by this, that he's so willing to give up being OOO just to give the power to him.
"It's useless." Ankh said getting their attention as flies in front of Yuuma. "Now that you've used the OOO-Driver, it will now only work on you and no one else can use it."
"Really?" Yuuma asked in surprise.
"And you didn't even bother sharing that bit of information before hand?" Asuka asked, which made Ankh huffed as he turns away.
"Of course I would." Ankh stated.
"Why you…!" Asuka growled at Ankh.
"Now, now, Asuka-chan just calm down." Yuuma said before he turns Goto. "Sorry Goto-san, but you heard him. Looks like it can't be done."
Goto clicks his tongue before he walks to his bike.
"Good, because I don't want any pity from you." Goto said before he got on his bike and drives away, leaving the area.
"Man...just what is that guy's problem…" Katsuragi said.
"Not sure…" Yuuma said as he rubs the back of his head.
After the battle, Dark Decade was left chuckling by the results of this outcome.
"Most impressive, and that was only the first batch of Yummies." Dark Decade said.
"Yes I agree. Makes me wonder, what would happen if the rest of them would hatch." Poseidon said.
"All the more reason, why I'm staying for a while." Dark Decade said.
(Back with Yuuma)
After the battle and gathering the Medals from the defeated Unagi Yummies, Yuuma and the others were now in Hanzo Academy. Asuka was treating Yuuma's injuries as she finished placing the bandages on his body, as their friends and teacher watch.
"And there...how's that?" Asuka asked as she finished placing the bandages.
"Still a little sore...but it's nothing with some bed rest can't fix." Yuuma said as he rolled around his neck and then his shoulder.
"Okay, but don't try to push yourself too hard." Asuka told him.
"I will don't worry." Yuuma said.
"Sorry to interrupt, but we should review on what's going on." Kiriya said getting everyone's attention.
"Yeah, that's true." Yuuma nodded in agreement.
"Now you said that the Yummies you've just encountered had somehow multiple?" Kiriya asked, and Yuuma nodded, which made Kiriya ponder about it as he placed his hand on his chin. "Most interesting…"
Kiriya then turns to Ankh.
"Ankh as a Greeed you should know the Yummies better than anyone in this room. Do you know what could have done that?" Kiriya asked.
"I'm not sure myself. I never seen anything like that before." Ankh answered before he remembers that Sai-Gorilla-Zou Yummy. 'But then again there was that one time…'
"Ankh?" Yuuma calls which snap Ankh out of his train of thought before he made a few fake coughs.
"Anyway, it doesn't matter right now. Our first priority is to find the host, since this Yummy is one of Mezool's, there's no doubt that the Nest is still growing. And after seeing what the first batch was capable, we should probably hurry." Ankh said.
"There's no reason to sound concern about this." Ikaruga said. "You only want to get the Medals before the other Greeeds can."
Ankh smirked taking it is a compliment.
"You know me too well." Ankh said.
"In any case, Ankh is right. We should focus on finding the Yummy's host first, and figure out what her desire is." Yuuma said.
"About that," Asuka said getting their attention. "During the chaos, and when I help one of the people there, I saw one of the Yummies ignoring her."
"Yeah that was the one alright. Did you see what the host look like?" Ankh asked.
"It was a woman, someone who might be in her late teens, and she had long blond hair and blue eyes." Asuka told them.
"That's a start, but that still leaves her desire though." Yuuma said.
"I might have a idea." Kiriya said as he brought out a tablet and showed a website application from the theater the Unagi Yummies. "This application is from the theater that was attack by them. Apparently, they were auditioning with actresses for a play there."
"Yeah, now that you've mentioned it, those Yummies were only attacking women there." Yuuma said. "So that would mean the host is not only an actress, she was also auditioning there."
"So her desire was attacking the other participants there?" Ikaruga said.
"Oh please, it's not something as simple as that." Ankh said with a mocking tone. "I say it's the desire of wanting something. You say those women were auditioning there for a play, right?"
Kiriya nodded.
"And that's it, her desire is to win a big role in that play. In fact I can just bet this wasn't the first time she felt that way. The desire of wanting something." Ankh said with a smirk on his face.
"Hate to say it, but Ankh made a good point there." Yuuma said in agreement.
"Well even if that's true, we still need to find her though." Ikaruga stated.
"Ikaruga's right, I'll look into this, Yuuma you just focus on resting for now." Kiriya told him.
"Yeah, I think that's a good idea…" Yuuma nodded, before he wonders how Goto is doing right now.
(Later)
After getting a call from Kougami, Goto is in his office of the Kougami Foundation, as he was standing in front of his boss.
"Goto-kun, I can't tell you how disappointed I am in you. I told you before we need OOO's power to defeat the Greeeds, and you almost had him killed with your reckless action." Kougami said, which made Goto look down in shame. "What do you have to say for yourself?"
"Nothing, sir. I don't regret what I did." Goto answered.
Kougami sighs in disappointment as he shook his head.
"If I were any other CEO, I would have you fired. But you're lucky that I am a fair man, and I believe in second chances." Kougami said which surprise Goto as he looks up at him. "Just make sure that you won't ever do that again."
"Thank you, sir." Goto said.
"It's fine, and lucky for you, I have your chance in redemption." Kougami told him. "Doctor Maki had finished production of new Candroids. I want you to get them, and personally deliver them to OOO."
Goto's eyebrow twitch when he said that.
"Is that a problem?" Kougami asked.
"Of course not…" Goto groan.
"Good. Now what are you waiting? Go and do your job." Kougami ordered.
Goto nodded before he leaves his office, as Kougami watches him leave he leans on his chair with a smile on his face.
"Now then...what is your next move going to be, Goto-kun?" Kougami wonders out loud.
Goto was now outside of the Kougami Foundation, and was standing in front of a Ride Vendor to use as transportation. But Goto didn't insert a Cell Medal to activate it, he was remembering Kougami's words again, and soon what Yuuma told him.
"If you want, I can give you the OOO-Driver."
This made Goto to grit his teeth before he punches on the Ride Vendor, as he was feeling more frustrated and agitated than before.
"That guy...he just makes no sense at all. How could someone like him be OOO?" Goto mutters out loud.
"You seem to be troubled, young man." Goto blinks before he turns around and saw Hanzo standing behind him while eating some Dango.
"Who are you?" Goto asked.
"Who me? Oh I'm no one, just a harmless old man who was just passing by." Hanzo said as he eats a piece of Dango. "But anyway, you seem to be stress out about something. Care to tell me what's wrong?"
Goto turns away from Hanzo.
"Nothing, and besides even if I do tell you, you won't be able to understand." Goto stated.
"Oh then try me. I might surprise you." Hanzo said as he finished the last piece of Dango.
Goto eyed on Hanzo before he ponders about it and decided to tell him the small details.
"Let's just say my boss is someone who has large ideas to help the world, but despite that fact, he's letting a outsider...no a danger to that plan to help with him. I just can't understand why he would do that, and not only that this danger say he would help me...I just don't understand at all…" Goto said.
Hanzo understood and knows that he must be talking about Yuuma, and knowing the letter he must have offered to give the power of OOO to Goto, and Hanzo figured that must have hurt his pride.
This made Hanzo remembered someone who was a good friend of his who was also a shinobi, but at one point he and this friend had different views on the subject of evil, which led the two friends on their separate ways.
While Hanzo had become a legend, being respected and revered, this friend become a renegade, being detested and hated by his peers.
The way Goto is acting is reminding him of his friend in some ways, which gave him the right words to say to him.
"I see now, so you're being frustrated by this so called danger is because he has more power than you. Is that it?" Hanzo asked, which angered Goto as he turns back at Hanzo.
"That's not-!" Before he could finished, Hanzo punches at Goto's face but suddenly stops as his fist was a few inches from his face.
Goto was surprised on how fast he was despite his age.
"I can tell you right now, that way of thinking is wrong." Hanzo stated before he lowered his fist. "Being weak is not something to be ashamed of. In fact I think this danger you called it, feels the same way."
"Nani? How are you so sure of that?" Goto asked.
"Well I may not know who this danger is, but I do know that he's still human like you and me. So even he has limits, and is still vulnerable to attacks." Hanzo said, which made Goto remembered that time Yuuma destroyed the Unagi Yummies, on how hurt and tired he was. "Listen young man, no matter how powerful one can be and how strong his or her weapon, it still doesn't change the fact that humans can be weak at times. But if we work together, that's a different story."
Goto wonders what he means, before Hanzo then raised his hand with all of his fingers out.
"Take the hand for instance. One finger alone is weak, but if they're brought together," Hanzo said as he a made a fist with his hand. "A hand and it's fingers can form a mighty fist. In short, you might have large ideas to help the world, but you're just a little finger that can't do much all alone. Which is why most people need allies time to time, to help shoulder the burden."
'Shoulder the burden…' Goto thought in wonder.
"Well I think that's enough of that, I'll take my leave now." Hanzo said before he leaves the area.
"Wait! Just who are you?!" Goto asked.
"I told you before, I'm just a old man that was passing by." Hanzo said as he waved his hand at Goto, as he watches the legendary shinobi walking away.
(Back with Yuuma and the others)
Yuuma, Kiriya, and the Hanzo students, were looking footage of Yuuma's battle against the Unagi Yummies to look for their host, while Ankh was slacking off as he was eating a popsicle.
Asuka soon found her before she calls out to everyone.
"Everyone, I've found her!" This made everyone walk to her before Asuka showed the picture of Yuriko on her tablet.
"So that's her." Yuuma said.
Kiriya took the tablet out of Asuka's hand, and he did a facial scan for her idea, and it soon found and showed her profile identification.
"It's said her name is Yuriko Sano. She's 19 years old, and she currently lives alone. Also occupation, as you're all already guess is a small time actress, it also said she made several attempts to win big roles in TV shows and movies, but she failed to win them."
"And all those failures must have met their breaking point, which made her desire to win a easy target to spawn a Yummy." Ankh said.
"In any case, we now found our host. But the only question is, how are we going to approach her?" Yuuma said.
"Good point there, it's not like we could just up and tell her that a nest of monsters is being created by her desire." Ikaruga said.
"Then...maybe we should lure it out." Yuuma suggested which gotten everyone's attention.
"What do you mean?" Asuka asked.
"Well it's a little risky and a little mean, but we should set a trap." Yuuma suggested.
"Okay, but what kind of trap?" Katsuragi asked.
"Depends, are you girls good at acting?" Yuuma asked.
Which made everyone in room a little curious of what kind of plan he has.
(Meanwhile)
After getting away from the battle of OOO and the Unagi Yummies, Yuriko was now back in her apartment, seated on the floor with her head and arms on a table in front of her.
After the Yummies' attack at the theater, they had to cancel auditions due to safety concerns and no winner for the lead role was decided. That left Yuriko devastated once again, but she was still determined to win another chance for her dream to become a great actress.
"I must win...next time I will win…" Yuriko said, making her desire grow more, and with that the Yummy Nest is beginning to grow larger as more Cell Medals piled up inside, and the Special Cell Medal grows more powerful.
Then suddenly her phone started to ring which gotten Yuriko's attention as she raised her head before she picks her phone up and saw she got a notification.
She then opens that notification, and saw it was a news report saying that a Hollywood film director will be arriving in Japan and in the city she lives, it also said that this director will be holding auditions for the lead role of a movie he's currently working on, which really surprise Yuriko and brought her new determination as she made a determined face.
(Next day)
After waking up and getting ready for the audition, Yuriko has now arrived in the location, where they're holding the auditions for that Hollywood director's movie. It was a park with a stage in the middle.
Yuriko then saw the other participants in the area, and there was a lot of them, and soon saw the judges seated on a table in front of the stage.
One was a young woman with long black hair tied in a ponytail, wearing a white shirt with a long black skirt, and brown socks with black shoes, and was wearing sunglasses over her eyes.
The beside her, is a older man with white hair also wearing sunglasses along with a black suit.
The third one is a young man with blond hair, wearing a black leather jacket with a red shirt with matching pants, and wears black boots, and is wearing sunglasses.
The last and forth one is a young man with brown hair, and was wearing a blue shirt with a brown scarf around his neck, brown pants with matching shoes, and has a film hat on his head and was wearing sunglasses.
"So those are the judges for that movie…" Yuriko said before she made a determined face as she slaps on her cheeks. "You can do this Yuriko...You can do this."
Hiding with the other participants, was Asuka with her hair now loose, and was wearing a black dress shirt with a white shirt underneath, with a black skirt with matching shoes, had spotted Yuriko nearby to her before she spoke through a communicator on her ear.
"Everyone, she's here." She said.
The four judges were actually Ikaruga, Kiriya, Ankh and Yuuma in disguised, and hiding with Asuka along with the participants is Katsuragi who had her hair tied in a ponytail, wearing a blue dress with a white jacket and shoes.
Yagyu with her hair loose, with some parts of it covering her eyepatch, is wearing a red shirt with black jeans, and red shoes.
Hibari wearing a pink hat, along with a pink shirt with a black skirt with matching shoes.
This whole movie audition was all a ruse to lure out Yuriko, and to hope will draw out her Yummy.
"Still can't believe this idea of yours actually work, Yuuma." Ankh said.
"Well I'm surprised you agreed to be a part of this, Ankh." Yuuma said.
"Yeah I have to agree with Yuuma, on that one." Katsuragi said through her communicator.
"Hmph...well don't get the wrong idea, I'm only here to get the Medals." Ankh said.
"We know, you don't have to keep on saying that." Asuka told the Greeed.
"Everyone just focus." Kiriya told his students. "Just follow the plan for now, because we can't afford any slip ups."
"Yes sensei." They said.
"Alright, guess we should start then." Yuuma said as he stands up with a microphone in hand. "Alright everyone, we're now ready to begin the auditions. So you get ready, and have your numbers on you on all times."
"Hai!" The participants called out as they nodded.
After getting ready, they soon participated one at a time, showing their acting skills to the fake judges, and after 30 minutes, it was almost Yuriko's turn as she was standing behind five of the other participants.
Yuriko is nervous while in the same time worried if she's gonna lose again.
'No!' Yuriko shouted in her mind as she shook her head. 'I refuse to think like that! I refuse to keep losing! I will win this, for my dream!'
Then the Yummy Nest in her apartment was now almost in its breaking point, as more Cell Medals pile up and the Special Cell Medals begins to channel more energy as sparks of electricity reach the outside of the Nest.
It was now Yuriko's turn as she walks on stage.
"Okay, entry number 15, Yuriko Sano, correct?" Yuuma asked.
"Yes sir, I'm here to show you on what I can do." Yuriko said with strong determination.
"Good, then show us what you're capable of." Yuuma requested, and Yuriko nodded.
Then Yuriko showed them her acting skills and abilities. Her acting is impressive, but there was something off about her performance that Ikaruga and Kiriya seem to notice.
"Ikaruga, you notice it too, don't you?" Kiriya asked.
"Yes I did." Ikaruga nodded.
After Yuriko was now done, and the last of the participants had gone next, and after they were now done, Yuuma and the other judges were now ready to hand the verdict.
"Okay, we're now ready to hand the verdict. The one who won the lead role is…" Yuuma started and Yuriko was praying for it to be her. "Entry number, 31!"
Number 31 was Asuka as she cheered that she won.
"Yes, I did it!" Asuka cheered.
This made Yuriko once again devastated as her eyes widen, and was jealous that Asuka had won, they all seen her acting skills was very awful and she made a few mistakes, but the fact that she won was not fair to her.
'Not again...why...why did it happen again?!' Yuriko exclaimed in anger and jealousy, and with that her desire reach its limit as the Yummy Nest is now hatching, unleashing a small army of Unagi Yummies before they all head to where Yuriko was.
Ankh senses the Yummies were now heading in the area in a fast speed.
"Everyone, they're coming." Ankh told him, and they soon got ready.
"Alright, everyone you need to leave now!" Yuuma told them, which confused Yuriko and the other participants, wondering what was wrong with him.
They soon got their answer, as the Unagi Yummies has now arrived in the park, as each of them scream in fear before they begin to run away. Soon Yuuma and the others got ready, as he, Ikaruga, Kiriya, and Ankh took off their sunglasses and soon stand up.
"Alright, me and Ankh will handle the Yummies, Ikaruga, you and the others get the other participants to safety." Yuuma told her.
"You got it." Ikaruga nodded as she and Kiriya runs to the others to help evacuate the actresses.
Yuuma and Ankh run up and face the Unagi Yummies.
"You better get ready, Yuuma." Ankh said as he brought out the Core Medals.
"I know." Yuuma said as he puts on the OOO Driver, and he grabs the Core Medals out of Ankh's hand.
Yuuma soon inserted the Core Medals into his Driver and scanned them.
"Henshin! Yuuma said before he charges at the Yummies as he transforms
TAKA
TORA
BATTA
TATOBA! TA-TO-BA, TATOBA!
Yuuma transformed into OOO and soon brought out his sword as he slashes on the first group of the Unagi Yummies.
While OOO was fighting against the Unagi Yummies, Goto riding on a Ride Vendor, had soon arrived after hearing the report of the Yummies' attack, as he stop he saw Yuriko falling to the ground as she was running.
"Sano-san!" Asuka said as she knelt down to check on her. "Are you alright?"
"No I'm not…" Yuriko mutters as she sits up. "I just don't understand, why is this happening to me? And why those monsters are here…"
"Sano-san…" Asuka mutters before she placed her hand on her shoulder, which made Yuriko look at her. "I was hoping I wouldn't tell you this...but the reason why those monsters are here is because of you."
"Me?" Yuriko gasped in shock, and Asuka nodded.
"Yes, you see they were born from your desire, to become a great actress." Asuka told her, and Yuriko was furthered shock by this. "Look I'm not judging for anything. You were just being used by someone else, they're the ones responsible for this."
Yuriko looks down.
"Even if you say...It still doesn't change the fact that I cause this...I just...I just wanted to be a great actress…" Yuriko mutters.
"Sano-san…" Asuka said, and wasn't sure on what to say to cheer her up before Yuriko continues to speak.
"You see...when I was younger, I saw a really great actress performing on the greatest stage show I've ever seen. I was completely in awe, it was because of that, I was inspired to be a great actress like her...but all I've ever did was failing every time I audition, it made me think that it was impossible for me…" Yuriko mutters.
Asuka then grabs onto her hand which made Yuriko look at her.
"It's okay to feel that way. It just means that you're still human." Asuka stated which made Yuriko to wonder what she means. "Listen, I think you're a great actress. But I think the reason why you keep on failing, is because you've gotten too worried that you might fail again, and again. You need to learn how to relax, and there's nothing to be ashamed of about failing, because you get to learn from your mistakes, and improve yourself."
"Learn from my mistakes…?" Yuriko said in wondering.
Goto overheard what she said, which made him look down before he drives to where OOO and the Unagi Yummies are.
OOO continues to slashed upon the Unagi Yummies with some kicks, as he dodges and parried each Yummies' attacks. As OOO slashed on two Yummies they instantly made one copies of themselves.
"Not this again!" OOO said as he dodges the new Unagi Yummies attack.
But when he wasn't looking, one of the Unagi Yummies slashed his sword out of his hand, before it punches on him with some electricity in its attack, forcing OOO to stumble back.
As OOO stops stumbling, he soon saw two Unagi Yummies jumping at him to attack him, which he manage to dodge as he kicks one away and lands a punch on the other one, sending them both to the ground. But as those two Yummies stand back up they created more copies of themselves.
OOO growls in frustration wondering on how to counter that, before he saw another Unagi Yummy punching at him, which he manage to stop as he grabs onto his fist, but then that Yummy created a copy of itself, and that copy punches on OOO's head forcing him to stumble back, to another Unagi Yummy before that one kicks him, sending OOO rolling on the ground.
"Dang it…" OOO mutters as he sits up. "There's just no end to them."
Goto soon arrived as he stops nearby, before he took off his helmet. He then brought out and looks at a briefcase, inside is the new set of Candroids that Maki had just created.
But Goto was in doubt as he wonders if he should help OOO or not. As he was in thought, he soon remembers Hanzo's and Asuka's words.
"Take the hand for instance. One finger alone is weak, but if they're brought together, a hand and it's fingers can form a mighty fist. In short, you might have large ideas to help the world, but you're just a little finger that can't do much all alone. Which is why most people need allies time to time, to help shoulder the burden."
"I think the reason why you keep on failing, is because you've gotten too worried that you might fail again, and again. You need to learn how to relax, and there's nothing to be ashamed of about failing, because you get to learn from your mistakes, and improve yourself."
'That's right, all this time I've been letting my pride get the better of me. I should've learn from that, and focus on what I should be doing, protecting the world...but I can't do much as one finger.' Goto thought, as he soon made his decision as he opens the briefcase and brought out the new Candroids.
There were three of them in his hand, and the top part is colored blue while the rest is silver, and has the symbol of a eel on the top part.
Goto soon got off his bike and runs to OOO.
As OOO was fighting against the Unagi Yummies, they've created more copies of themselves and soon overrun OOO, as they punch and kick on him, until they sent OOO to the ground.
OOO sits up as he watches the Unagi Yummies slowly marching towards him, before they were fired upon. OOO looks and saw Goto armed with his gun as he stops running.
"Goto-san?" OOO said in surprise.
"OOO used these!" Goto said as he throws the Candroids at OOO.
OOO catches the Candroids and they soon transformed, after seeing their snake-like appearance and slithering movement, OOO was frighten as he throws them away as he gasped in fright.
"I-I-I can't handle snakes that well, Goto-san!" OOO told him.
"They're not snakes, they're Unagi!" Goto told him as he continues to fire upon the Unagi Yummies.
"Unagi…?" OOO said as he looks down at the Unagi Candroids, while still not being convinced if they were based around Unagi, OOO still reluctantly picks them back up. "Okay, just how do I use these though?"
"Just throw them at the Yummies, and you'll see!" Goto told him as he reloads his gun.
"Okay," OOO said as he stands up. "Here goes nothing!"
OOO throws the Unagi Candroids at the Unagi Yummies, as they were flying, the Candroids soon bites on each other's tail before they tied around one of the Yummies, binding it before the Candroids unleash strong electric shock, the now binded Unagi Yummy soon tries to multiply but the Candroids strong hold on it prevented the Yummy on doing so.
"Alright, with that we can stop them from multiplying!" OOO said.
"Then I guess it's a good thing I've brought more with me." Goto said as he heads back to his Ride Vendor, he then pressed on a button which transformed it into its Vendor mode filled with Unagi Cans. "OOO, you keep them busy while I bring more Unagi Cans out."
"You got it!" OOO nodded before he brought out his Tora Claws and attacks the Unagi Yummies, while dodging and parrying their attacks.
Goto soon brought out a handful of Cell Medals, and soon inserted them into the Vendor to bring out more Unagi Candroids, as he pops the top for them to transform before the Unagi Candroids slithers towards the Unagi Yummies as Goto keeps on bringing more out.
As OOO continues to slashed on each of the Unagi Yummies, the Unagi Candroids begins to tied themselves around the Yummies, electrifying preventing them to move and making more copies of themselves.
As OOO slashed on two Unagi Yummies more Unagi Candroids tied around them and soon unleashed a electric shock, stunning them. OOO soon saw that the other Yummies were now bound by the Unagi Candroids.
"Alright, time to finish this for real!" OOO said before he turns to Ankh was on the high ground. "Hey Ankh, how about we use a Full Combo?"
"Fine just be sure, not to screw this up." Ankh said before Ankh brought out the Medal Holder.
Ankh soon picks out the Grey Core Medals and soon throws them at OOO as he catches them.
OOO soon removes his current Core Medals and inserted the Grey Core Medals and scanned them with his O-Scanner.
SAI
GORILLA
ZOU
Sagouzo...Sa-Gou-Zo!
OOO transformed into his Sagouzo Combo.
(Cue: Sun Goes Up by Shu Watanabe)
OOO roars loudly which created a shockwave around the Unagi Yummies as fragments from the ground, destroying a few of the Yummies.
OOO cease his roar before he aimed his Gorilla Gauntlets at the Unagi Yummies and they soon fly off and smashes through them, destroying many of the Yummies.
Then the Gorilla Gauntlets soon returned to OOO's arms, and soon OOO roars once again as he bangs his Gauntlets on his chest, which soon created a shockwave which entrap and levitated the Unagi Yummies, and OOO soon made them crashed into each other destroying them.
Soon the last surviving Unagi Yummy fallen back to the ground, and OOO soon drew out his O-Scanner and scanned his Driver.
SCANNING CHARGE
OOO soon levitates up in the air before he lands back to the ground, which entrap the Unagi Yummy's feet as the fragments repaired the ground beneath the Yummy.
Then the Unagi Yummy was now being dragged to OOO, before he readies his Sai Horn and his Gorilla Gauntlets.
"Seiya!" OOO shouted as he slams his Horn and Gauntlets on the Yummy, destroying it as it exploded.
(End of song)
As Cell Medals fall to the ground, the Special Cell Medal was on top of them before it turned to dust.
(Later)
After the battle, OOO now back as Yuuma was lying down on a bench with his head on top of Ikaruga's lap.
"Are you feeling better, Yuuma?" Ikaruga asked.
"A little bit...also thanks again for doing this." Yuuma mutters.
"You're welcome." Ikaruga told him, while not noticing Katsuragi was giving her a jealous look as she pouted.
Asuka was talking to Yuriko, explaining to her to this whole audition as Kiriya told the actresses the same thing.
"I'm really sorry, that we've deceived you like this." Asuka said before she bowed her head.
"It's alright, in fact I should be thanking you." Yuriko stated which made Asuka blink before she raised her head back up. "You were right, that I shouldn't let my fear of failing bother me. I'm going to learn from my mistakes, and continue to improve myself."
Asuka and other smile for her, and after saying her goodbye to them, Yuriko soon leaves.
"Well I'm glad she'll be better now." Yuuma said before he looks at Goto. "Also Goto-san…" Goto turned to him. "Thanks for the help. I would've been a goner if you hadn't arrived."
"It was nothing. I was just doing my job." Goto said before he heads to his bike and then got on it. "Also...O-I mean Hino...I'm...I'm sorry about before."
Yuuma and the others were surprised by this, before Goto leaves the area as he drives away.
"Hmm...I guess he wasn't all that bad after all." Katsuragi said.
"Well I never had any doubt about that." Yuuma said. "Because I just know that deep down, he's a good person…"
"If you say so. But I still hate that guy's guts." Katsuragi said, which made Yuuma to nervously chuckle.
(Meanwhile)
Poseidon and Dark Decade have been watching OOO battle against the last Special Yummy, on top of a building, and Dark Decade was impressed by the results of this even if the Yummy had lost to him.
"This was certainly a entertaining show, wouldn't you agree Poseidon?" Dark Decade asked.
"Yes, but we've also lost the last Special Cell Medal." Poseidon said.
"True, but those Medals were only just prototypes. What I really wanted from this is the results, and after seeing what they were capable of, I'm going to work on phase 2 of the project." Dark Decade told him.
"And what is phase 2?" Poseidon asked.
"You'll see soon enough." Dark Decade answered before he turns around. "Also Poseidon, your mission to find and get the Yin and Yang scrolls remains the same. Don't forget about that."
"Of course not, my lord." Poseidon nodded. "But am I free to do whatever I want until then?"
Dark Decade smirks before an Aurora Curtain appears in front of him and he soon walks to it.
"Of course. Just don't forget about your mission." Dark Decade said as he walks into the Aurora Curtain before it disappeared.
Now that Dark Decade was now gone, Poseidon had a excited grin on his face before he turns back at Yuuma. After watching him battle and defeated the five Special Yummies, and now that he has achieved three Full Combo forms, he was now ready to fight in his level.
"Now you are ready, OOO. This has been a long time coming." Poseidon said before he leaves the area.
