Showdown's going down for real! Cue the 'GDFR' song!

Showdown Time!

Kuzan and Ikuto looked at each other with a huge combination of hate, anger, fury and complete rage as they were ready to take each other down, yet Ikuto feels the coarsing rage stem through him because of Kuzan's manipulative news that Yuki's been murdered and with Kuzan's army surrounding him by the minute, Ikuto knew that he's not gonna let them win this war and before it even begins, Ikuto bit his thumb hard as he used his blood to summon Rake from underground and as Rake pops out beside him, most of the crew were in surprise as to why he's there.

"What the heck is that?" one of the crew members asked.

"Whatever the heck it is, we need to kill it." another one answered.

Kuzan laughs at this and he didn't really think that having Rake around would be a fierce battle and would easily kill him because there's two of him and only thousands of Kuzan's army and Kuzan said, "You're gonna be finished real quick. Attack!"

With that, every army member went in to attack Rake, but Ikuto exclaimed, "Rake...finish them off!"

"With pleasure, master!" Rake answered.

Before long, Rake slays his another army member with the use of his claws and slices them up quickly with his long claws with zero mercy as pieces of blood and body parts are scattered, which leaves the crew stunned and outraged, but before the crew could even pursue to kill Rake, they stood no chance against someone like him.

Rake comes over and attacks them all as he slices, dices, stabs and slays the entire army very fast without any amounts of slowing down and half of them he consumed with just one bite and swallowed them on the insides of his mouth and under just 3 minutes, they're all killed and consumed, which both shocked and angered Kuzan the most.

"That does it! You killed all of my army!" Kuzan shouted, furiously.

Ikuto growls at Kuzan and he looks directly at him and he cracked his knuckles and said, "Like I said, enough small talk. Let's end this!"

"You're going down first, wolf!" Kuzan shouted, coming after him with his swords.

As Kuzan ran to slice off Ikuto, he soon sees him getting punched in the stomach, head and sides with his feet and Ikuto grabs Kuzan by the arm and flips him around the ground as well as in the walls and fiercely throws him down and body slams him to the ground, punching him directly to the face and biting him. Kuzan grunts in pain afterwards, but he has other plans for Ikuto as he claws him straight to the face, causing Ikuto to groan in pain.

Despite getting clawed by Kuzan, Ikuto wasn't gonna give up without a fight and viciously attacks Kuzan by clawing, beating and brutally bashing him down in a heat of rage and pins him down to the ground and both of them rolled around the ground, wrestling with each other and Kuzan kicks Ikuto down with his feet and Ikuto slams to the wall, then hits the ground.

Ikuto groans in pain and he keeps standing up as he refuses to give in and Kuzan was already annoyed with Ikuto still fighting and he keeps slamming him down and flipping him down, but Ikuto grabs him by the hand and then slams him down and throws him back to the ground with his foot standing against his neck and he said, "You took the one person I love away from me!"

"She had no business being with you! You're a wolf and she's a tiger! If you had a brain, you'd know that wolves kill tigers! It's the principal of nature!" Kuzan shouted.

"Whoever said that stupid theory might not have found love!" Ikuto spat out.

Kuzan shoved Ikuto down to the ground and attempted to slice him, but only ripped his vest half open and Ikuto punched him straight to the face and knocked him to the ground. After Kuzan got down, Ikuto panted heavily as he removed his vest and sets it down to the floor so that he can keep on fighting Kuzan.

"You could've done better than that! I know you wolves like the back of my head! You are the natural enemy against us felines, enslaved to take over our rights and condemn us for life! The fact that you're in love with a tiger disgusts me! You probably raped a couple of felines in your time and murdered them and controlled them to do your own bidding and if they disobey, they get brutally punished and set on fire and take advantage of them at your own free will!" Kuzan wildly shouted.

All of Kuzan's accusations completely set off Ikuto and he knew that this guy is completely out of touch with reality and he said, "That is the most stupidest thing I've ever heard of! We wolves may not have the best reputation, but we would NEVER in any shape or form take advantage of anyone! And so what if people say that a wolf and a feline shouldn't be in love?! I love Yuki with all of my heart and will always protect her, love her and give her everything that you never knew how to treat any woman; kindness, love, respect, patience and selflessness!"

"All those are signs of weakness!" Kuzan shouted.

Ikuto bashed him in the face with his chain-hammer really hard, which sent the killer panther hurtling to the ground hard and Ikuto argued, "Treating her like your personal slave...that's weak! Not only that, but you're nothing but a coward!"

Kuzan took that as an offense and he snarled loudly and asked, "What did you just say?"

"You heard me." Ikuto said, growling.

Kuzan went on the deranged and crazy anger based on that comment and he went full-on attack mode on Ikuto as he fiercely attacked him very furiously, but Ikuto fought back with a huge panache of fury and as they were about to put the final fight in, someone out of the blue with a panicked fear interrupted them and said to Kuzan, "The prisoner! She's escaped!"

Kuzan immediately stopped on his tracks and looked at one of Kuzan's lackeys and asked, "Who escaped?! I'm in the middle of a fight here!"

"That tigress! She escaped! As well as the other prisoners!" the panicked lackey replied.

Kuzan froze for a second in a deep rage and he grabbed the lackey and asked, "How could you let this happen?!"

"I'm sorry, master! Your kidnapping and murder plot to kill Yuki after killing the wolf has been foiled!" the panicked lackey answered.

Suddenly...it hit Ikuto. Not only the fact that Yuki's still alive, but that there were more victims and prisoners around there and also an elaborate plot to have him killed before he could get to Yuki and the fact that Yuki's still relieved him, but he's still feeling the anger stemming for the fact that Kuzan lied straight to his face and he immediately pinned Kuzan down to the ground, putting his claws inside his shoulder, causing Kuzan to groan in pain.

"I'm gonna ask you again before we even fought and told me that lie...where is Yuki?" Ikuto asked, growling.

Yuki's still alive! More showdown is on the way!
