Chapter 6

Powers of the Young

Gregory shot forth and tried to land a punch on the Assassinator. Of course, the punch was easily dodged and Assassinator zipped behind Gregory and knocked him to the ground. Gregory quickly got up and tried to punch the ninja again, but was then again dodged and Gregory was knocked to the ground again.

"Gregory, you gotta stop trying to overpower him!" yelled Reagon, "You have to try and use this guy's speed against him!" Gregory stood up and looked over at the Assassinator and started to focus his energy into his hands. The Assassinator then copied what Gregory did and had energy in his hands.

"You think you're funny don't ya?" Gregory said annoyed, "Well let's see how you like this! Wind Cannon!" Gregory said as he threw his hands forth and wind shot from his hands. The Assassinator did the exact same thing. The windblasts collided. In addition, a powerful force of wind was sent everywhere and knocked him down. Gregory then thought to himself, Man…the battle has just started and I'm already getting' my butt handed to me by some weirdo who likes to copy cat people and use his speed to beat his opponents…I think…

"It seems like this could be over pretty quickly for the poor freshman!" said the announcer, "If Gregory doesn't do something smart soon, he might as well quit and go home!"

"Think this kid can pull it off?" asked Kane as he looked over at Ryota. Ryota gave a small grin and said, "If this guy gets him enough, he is sure to let his power loose."

Gregory finally was able to get a chance to stand completely up and a dark grey energy started to surround him. Gregory did not even know what was happening, "What is this?"

Reagon then said, "I think that the Assassinator is about to meet a pretty bad defeat."

"What do you mean?" asked Izuna.

"The energy Gregory is emitting is giving off a powerful force ." Reagon said, "I think we're about to see Gregory's hidden power. Guess it doesn't take much to unleash it…"

"Well, I guess I may be in trouble…" said the Assassinator, "I'm gonna have to use my special move if I wanna win now."

"Wow…you can talk." Gregory said in a somewhat different voice, "No matter what move you use Assassinator, you aren't going to defeat me."

The Assassinator removed his top cloak and revealed several wounds on his body and a slash a crossed his left eye, which his left eye was gone, "My name is Akio Sentoura Anoka." Akio said, "I have faced many demons in the past and I aint gonna lose to someone who has the sacred wolf hybrid demon inside of him!"

Everyone was shocked as Gregory's energy turned into a wolf-like cloak around him and his left eye turned a dark blue color while his right eye turn a bright yellow color, his incisors started to grow larger while the rest of his teeth became sharper, his short brown hair became spiky and grey, and his nails turned into very sharp claws. Gregory then smiled, showing his sharp, wolf-like teeth, "Whoa…this is awesome!" Gregory looked around to see he had grey energy around him in the shape of a big, wolf-like tail.

Akio dashed forth while holding huge three bladed kunai. Akio jumped high up in the air, threw the kunai, and made a few hand signs, "Kunai Lightning!" The Kunai turned into huge lightning bolts. Gregory dashed toward Akio, jumped up in the air while dodging the kunai, and howled, "Howling Eruption!" While he howled, an enormous grey beam launched from his mouth and hit Akio and brought him to the ground.

While Gregory reverted to his normal self, the announcer yelled, "That's it! The winner of the third match is Gregory Sendai!"

As the crowd cheered the announcer yelled, "We shall begin the fourth match!"

Gregory walked down towards Ryota and, who gave him a high-five. Ryota then said, "So what the heck was that little wolf-like technique you used?"

Gregory then looked at his hands and said, "I really don't know…but whatever it was, it helped me win."

"Good job, though," Izuna said with her eyeless smile. Gregory smiled, "Thanks. I appreciate it."

"The first contestant of the fourth match is an android that is supposedly named Android Alpha!" The crowd cheered as a black haired figure walked onto the arena and was then staring down Reagon. The announcer then yelled, "And our second combatant is a person that we thought would never fight right before our very eyes. Ladies and Gentlemen, it's the legendary Reagon Ibaraki!!"

Then the crowd cheered loud, probably because Reagon was one of the most famous fighters in the world and he was the very last member of his clan…and every single girl in the world thought he was good looking.

"We finally get to see how the Ibaraki clan fights." Kane said as he began to focus on Reagon as he took his place on the arena, staring down Alpha.

"Well… I thought I would never be able to face one of the greatest fighters in the entire world." Alpha said, "After I defeat you, I will really move up in the ranks and hopefully become Lord Rayclopsalon's right hand man."

Reagon then had a look on his face and asked, "You work for Rayclopsalon?"

Alpha snickered, "Well of course. That is why I am an android. It'll be fun taking down the guy who defeated the Dark Leviathan."

Alpha raised his right hand and held it out in front of him, he then took his left hand and took off his right hand! "Let me show you how an android fights!" yelled Alpha, "Hell Storm!"

Kane was shocked when he heard those two words, There is no way Alpha could have mastered that move. I though only 'He' was able to use that attack. Alpha's wrist, were his hand was missing, glowed and then shot millions of tiny needle-like beams that darted toward Reagon. As Reagon just stood there staring at the beams , Izuna yelled, "Reagon, watch out!"

As the beams hit Reagon and caused an explosion, Alpha started to laugh manically, "HAHAHA! I guess the legendary Reagon really isn't that legendary after all." When the smoke subsided, the entire crowd could not believe their eyes. Reagon was still standing there and there was not a scratch on him.

"Wow….for an android...that was a pretty sucky attack." Reagon said with one of his signature grins on his face, which made several girls in the arena scream with joy.

The announcer jumped and said, "Ladies and Gentlemen, Reagon just made that attack look like a cool summer breeze!"

"Whoa…" Ryota and Gregory said simultaneously. Kane's eyes widened, I heard Reagon was tough. But to survive an attack like 'Hell Storm' and not even have a scratch on his body…I am going to have to be careful if I ever face him.

"It's time to show you the Ibaraki Clan's Final Style," said Reagon as an electric aura started to surround him.

"What is 'Final Style'?" asked Izuna. Kane looked at her and said, "The Final Style is one of the most powerful fighting styles in the world. The Ibaraki Clan is said to be the only clan master this style."

"Do you think I'm gonna be scared of you?" yelled Alpha.

"You probably will be after this technique…" said Reagon as his hands started to charge up with fire, "Final Blaze Attack!" Reagon threw both of his hands in front of him and an enormous wave of blue fire that quickly hit Alpha. Alpha was getting ready to use an attack while being incinerated, but Reagon quickly dashed into the fire and punched Alpha right in the face, sending him flying to the edge of the arena.

"Reagon is beating the crud out of this guy!" Ryota exclaimed.

"No…I'm not gonna lose to you Reagon Ibaraki! I'm not going to let you stop Lord Rayclopsalon from reviving the Dark Leviathan!" Alpha yelled as he threw his hand forth as a huge green beam shot from it, "Full Power Energy Blast!"

Reagon quickly jumped back to create more distance between him and Alpha. Reagon extended his arms out to his sides and violet energy orbs formed in his hands. Reagon hit his wrists together, which caused the orbs to become one and became an enormous violet wave of energy, "Final Impact!" The energy blasts collided, pushing each other back and forth, while electricity was firing from every direction and powerful forces of wind were ripping the arena apart.

"C'mon Reagon!" cheered Izuna . Gregory, Ryota, Kane, and everybody else took cover to protect themselves from the electricity. Reagon's beam finally overpowered Alpha's beam. Alpha was then disintegrated. As the arena quieted down, everybody looked at the arena and just saw Reagon sitting down without a scratch on his body. Alpha, on the other hand, was nowhere to be seen.

"And the winner of the fourth match is the legendary Reagon Ibaraki!" the announcer said as everyone cheered. Reagon just looked at the announcer and said to himself, "I don't get how I'm legendary."

"Alright! Way to go, Reagon!" Gregory said giving him a high-five as he walked towards them. Kane looked at Reagon, Incredible…He just defeated one of Rayclopsalon's subordinates without even breaking a sweat. He did not even use his space-time attacks. Those must have been his weakest Final Style attacks…but they caused massive amounts of damage.

As soon last four matches were over of the first round, the announcer then said, "We will take a fifteen minute break to prepare for the quarterfinals. So make sure you are ready when we return for more exciting battles!"

"We should go visit Michael and see how he's doing." Ryota said.

"You guys go on ahead," Reagon said, "I'm heading to the concession stands."

"I'll go with you." Kane said.

Later, when Gregory, Ryota, and Izuna entered the medical room, they saw Michael, still covered in a few bruises, laying on one of the beds. Michael looked over at them, surprised, and said, "Hey guys…what's up?"

Gregory and the rest of the gang sat next to Michael. Michael looked at Gregory and said, "So how'd you guys do?"

"I won my match!" Gregory said happily. Michael let out a small laugh, looked at Ryota who was a little beat up and said, "How'd you do Hayami?"

Ryota gave Michael the thumbs up sign. Michael sighed and said, "So I take it you lost?"

Ryota quickly yelled, "No, I won!" Michael grinned and said, "I'm just messing with you." Michael looked at Izuna who was staring at him with her Peridot-colored eyes, "Did you win?"

Izuna, who still could not believe that Michael defeated Nukuoro, nodded and said, "Yea…"

Michael looked back at Gregory, "And how did Ibaraki and that other guy do?"

Gregory looked down at the ground. Michael sat up and said, "So they lost?

Gregory looked back up at Michael and said, "No…they won."

"Then why do you have that look on your face?" Michael asked.

"It's just that those two are incredible fighters. Reagon defeated some Android Alpha guy with ease and Kane beat the crap out of his guy in less than a minute." Gregory said.

Michael got out of bed and stretched, "The quarterfinals should be starting soon, right?"

"Yea…Are you sure all of your injuries are healed?" Ryota asked.

Michael looked at him and said, "Not all of them are healed, but I'll be alright. I'm not gonna forfeit if I do not feel up for it. That would indefinitely ruin my reputation…and we don't want that happening do we?"

"Good luck." a voice said. Gregory looked across from where Michael was laying and seen Nukuoro Takeshima looking at them, "We will battle again…and I'll win. You improved since I took you down several years ago when we participated in that tournament. It seems the nonstop battling between you and your father really paid off. Since you beat me…you better rise in the alchemy ranks. Got it?!"

Michael grinned and said, "Alright. I'm looking forward to our next battle."

As the group headed back outside, they saw Reagon (who had a huge drink in his hands) and Kane (who had a giant bag of Skittles). Reagon finished his drink, crushed the cup in his hands, threw it in the trashcan, and said, "Well that was refreshing!"

"Yea…" Kane said as he popped a handful of Skittles in his hand, "We would've been here sooner but you had hundreds of girls all over you."

"Yea I don't know what that was about…but do you wanna know something?" Reagon asked.

Kane glanced over at Reagon, "What?

"I seriously don't know why I'm being called a legendary hero who defeated some creature called the Dark Leviathan." Reagon said as they walked toward the arena, "I don't even know who Rayclopsalon or Galatrax is…I was pretty much just playing along when I was battling Alpha and when I was sent on this journey by some guy called Roland Valparaiso."

"You probably lost your memory when you blew yourself up during your battle with the Dark Leviathan." Kane said as they got to the arena, "It's been fifty years since it happened."

Reagon then had a smile on his face, "So technically they should be old and easy to beat right?"

Kane let out a heavy sign and said, "Not necessarily. Though both of them are at least six hundred or so years old, they still are some of the most powerful beings in the universe. Rayclopsalon is the one you should watch out for because I-"
"Reagon! Kane!" Gregory yelled.

"Well hey, Michael," Reagon said, "Looks like you're doing better."

"Yea…and I'm planning to win in the next round, too." Michael said as he had that expressionless, tough guy look on his face again.

"Ladies and Gentlemen, it time to get the Quarterfinals on the road!" yelled the announcer, "To start things off, lets introduce the two combatants of the first quarterfinal match! The first combatant is the one defeated Nukuoro in the first round, it's the dark horse alchemist, Michael Hiroshima!"

"Go get 'em Michael." Ryota said as Michael jumped onto the arena and took his place.
