The next day at the hospital, everyone had gathered in Ran'ningu's room after he had woken up.
"You have to stay in bed, Ran'ningu," said Sutā as he stopped him from getting up. Luckily, he did not have any IVs in.
"I'm fine, Sutā, I just got tired because of the game yesterday," said Ran'ningu.
"If you take it easy, then you can get out of here tomorrow," said Shinobi with a worried expression.
"Good, because I'm going to practice that new technique until I have it down," said Ran'ningu as he laid back down.
"That's too dangerous, Ran'ningu, look where you round up because of it," said Suzuna.
"Sena, talk some since into your boy," said Doburoku.
"How do you plan to train for such a technique, performing it once put you in the hospital," said Sena as he stood across from his bed.
"Same way I practiced the Devil Bat Splitter, I'll go over every step until I have it perfected," said Ran'ningu.
"What about your stamina, one time using it drained you completely," said Sena.
"That's why up until our game with Ojo next week, I'll wear two doctor masks at the same time, it'll double stamina training," said Ran'ningu.
"Then do your best," said Sena as he noticed the burning will in his son's eyes.
"Sena, you were supposed to talk him out of this!" said Doburoku.
"There is no talking him out of it, he's a stubborn son who wants to be the best that he can be, and I'm not going to stand in his way," said Sena with a smile before walking toward the door.
"Thanks dad," said Ran'ningu who was a little surprised. Across the room, Panther Jr. was watching as he laid on his bed in a full body cast.
"Good luck, Ran'ningu," thought Panther Jr.
