Chapter 35: The Opening of Wisdom's Theme Park
The next day after Papa Panda returned back home to Dragon World. Gao was sleeping and snoring.
"No, Batzz, you're wrong..." Gao talks in his sleep. All of the sudden, Batzz released his lightning as he shocks Gao, waking him up from his sleep.
"Serves you right for talking about me." Batzz said with his thumb up for payback.
"Good one, Big Boss!" Chibi Panda complimented.
Batzz chuckled, "Aw, that was nothing."
"Will you have time to do more training tomorrow?" He asked Batzz.
"Training?!" Gao yelled as he got up, "You zapped me in my sleep!" He complained.
"Well, you have to get ready! As manager of the Thunder Empire, I won't tolerate any tardiness." Chibi Panda said as Gao sighed for giving up.
"Then how about finding a nicer way to wake up?" Gao suggested something for himself.
"Stop whining!" Batzz said.
"Yeah, soldier!" Chibi Panda said. Then they heard a doorbell rang.
"Man, who could that be this early in the morning?" Gao said as he was bothered for noticing a visitor is coming. He went downstairs and then he slide opened the door, revealing Grimoire in front of his house.
"Mister Gao Mikado, please." He kindly requested.
"That's me." Gao referred.
"It's a pleasure." Grimoire bowed in greeting for introductions, "My name is Grimoire."
"Kay..." Gao was a bit confused about the formal introduction.
Grimoire pull out a invite from his suit.
"This is for you. It's an invitation. Please. Take it." He kindly handed to Gao as Gao takes it.
"An invitation to what?" He asked as he opens up the invite, "Grimoire?" He asked.
"Yes. Grimoire Park is having its grand opening, this Saturday. And I'm the General Manager in charge of the whole park." Grimoire explained, "I'm inviting you to participate in a ceremonial Buddyfight to mark the special occasion."
"A ceremonial Buddyfight?" Gao asked as he got a bit surprised.
"You're the reigning world number one champion of the Buddy Masters. The people would go crazy, cheering your name onto victory. And that's why I've come in person to request your honorable presences."
"So we're like pandas in a zoo, attracting the crowd?" Batzz assumed.
"Hey! I may be Chibi Panda, but I'm not a panda in a zoo!" Chibi Panda complained.
"No, no, please. I wouldn't use you to attract crowds. Kindly read the directions on the invitations." He adjusted his monocle, "I'll be waiting on Saturday with a worthy opponent. Okay, Gao?" He offered.
"A worthy opponent for me?" He got confused.
"Now I will take my leave." Grimoire bowed as he turned and leave the residence.
"Hey, wait!" Gao yelled but Grimoire had already left.
"Sounds fishy to me." Batzz believed it is suspicious about Grimoire.
"Maybe he's actually one of Wisdom's hired cronies!" Chibi Panda assumed as Gao opened the invite and reads it.
"Grimoire Park, huh?"
At School, Gao informed his friends as they were all at the rooftop.
"You were invited to Grimoire Park?!" Noboru asked as he was surprised, "Dude, that's totally amazing!"
"Yeah, why?" Gao asked.
"You mean you don't know about that theme park, Gao?" Haruka asked.
"No, have you guys heard about Grimoire Park before?"
"Have I heard of it? It's only like the coolest new Theme Park, Cho-Tokyo's ever seen!" Noboru said with excitement.
"Wait, so you really haven't heard about it, bro?" Baku asked as he wondered.
"It's a unique exhibit that also promises to build a better future." Kuguru explained.
"That's an ambitious undertaking." Abygale said.
"Do you think they have a reason to built that place, Gaito?" Minako asked.
"Not sure. So what will you do?" Gaito asked, "Are you going to fight him in the big match?"
"I vote that you declined." Athora recommended.
"No way! Totally go for it!" Kanata considered the option.
"You think?" His Buddy asked.
"Come on! He's the World Number One Champion, he has to show up!" Chibi Panda said as he turned to Batzz, "Well, what do you think, Big Boss?" He asked for his opinion.
Batzz slammed his fist to his hand, "I have no interested in this Grimoire Park. But if I can go on a rampage, I'm in!" He made a clear condition.
"Kay, I made up my mind!" Gao said as he stands up on his seat on the bench, "Let's do the Buddyfight! We don't kow whst it's really all about until we get there!"
At the Grimoire Park, many people are excited for the grand opening of the theme park.
"Wow! It's so big!" Haruka said as she and her friends were amazed to see the Grimoire Park for the first time.
"But I never thought there were such a mob of people before." Gao said after seeing many people here.
"It'll take hours to get inside the park." Chibi Panda predicted the problematic circumstances for them.
"Gao." A hand appeared on Gao's shoulder. Gao noticed that it was Zanya, who appeared behind him.
"Zanya." Gao whispered, "Didn't know you'd be here." He was unaware.
"I have a weird feeling about this, so I come." Zanya explained the reason.
"Welcome! I'm so glad you came!" Grimoire said as he came to Gao and his friends, "We've been waiting for you." He gave a bow, "Of course your friends are welcome to join us. Now please, follow me inside." In a gentleman manner, he led them to the checkpoint area, "Before you enter, please swipe each of your Buddy cards over to this scanner." He show them the scanner near the gate.
"Why do we have to do that?" Gao asked.
"Yes, sounds weird." Kanata said.
"So we can give you a Buddy Checker." Grimoire replied.
"A Buddy Checker?" Gaito asked.
"Is that some sort of new function?" Minako asked.
"Actually it is, milady. It's a new app that lets you monitor your Buddy's condition to help keep them from performing at their optical level." Grimoire explained what the app is about, "We're giving it away for free to all park visitors." But then Batzz starts to get irritated all of the sudden.
"I don't like the sounds of it." Batzz said as he thinks its suspicious.
"Really? Then what is your concern?" Grimoire asked.
"We Thunder Empire Monsters always fight at a big level! So we have no need of your new-fangled app!" Batzz complained.
"I understand. Sorry to offend." He apologized, "Now, let me show yo the park." He turned as he proceed ahead to the park.
Inside of the theme park.
"The Grimoire Theme Park has three principle zones. At the entrance, we have the Country Zone, which features obstacle courses and fun houses." He showed an attraction that has a obstacle course, "Next, we have the Frontier Zone, which echoes the spirit of the Wild West. Amusement includes rides and shooting gallery games." He showed the attraction that has a mountain roller coaster ride along with ranches and attractions, "Finally, the Megalopolis Zone, with a Science Museum, game center, and a sprawling array of never-before-seen thrill rides." He showed another attraction with thrill rides, museum, and game center.
"Enough talking. When do we get to ride some?" Noboru asked as he was getting impatient.
"Yeah! I'm very excited to go some rides!" Haruka said with excitement in her face.
"I know! We could spend a whole day here." Kuguru said.
"I'm not even sure that would be enough, bro." Baku commented.
"Hang on, I'll calculate. Yes, at least three days." Zanya calculated, using his glasses.
"It would be so wonderful if you did that." Grimoire said with satisfactory, "We'd love our visitors to return to learn all the park has to teach."
"To teach?" Gaito asked.
"What does that mean exactly?" Minako asked.
"We teach about monsters, of course. This amusement park museum will educate you immensely while you play. the game of Buddyfight helps to deepen our knowledge of monsters and reinforces our bonds with friendship. Our goal is to explore new possibilities for human-monster relations and build a prosperous future together." Grimoire explained.
"New possibilities?" Zanya asked as he tipped his glasses, "And what precisely do you mean by a 'prosperous future'?" He wondered about that fact.
"Well, a typical energy generator is currently powering this park. But eventually, we'd like to convert into one that's fueled by the life energy of monsters."
"The life energy of monsters?" Athora asked.
"So if I understand correctly, your goal is to harness us monsters' energy to power your entire facility?" Abygale asked hypothetically.
"Precisely." Grimoire said as he used his key card to open the door, "Monsters are a tremendous energy source as their power is unlimited. We feel that demystifying the true nature of monsters will be a great benefit to humanity."
"Heh, nobody would be using my energy." Batzz asked.
"Now I must go and open the park. The Fighting Stage is straight down there. That's where the ceremonial fight will be. We're counting on you for a great show, Gao."
"Okay." Gao agrees with a serious look on his face.
At the opening ceremony, Grimoire is announcing his speech.
"I now officially open Grimoire Park. Please accept the free Buddy Checker app as our gift when you enter the park." Grimoire announced as many people scanned their Buddy cards on the checker for entering the park.
At the Fighting Stage, the doors are open as everyone cheers for the event.
"Welcome everyone! And thank you for visiting us on this very special day. I am your host and manager of Grimoire Park for our grand opening, we have a ceremonial Buddyfight. Our first fighter is no stranger to you, I'm sure. World Number One, Gao Mikado! Let's hear it for him!" Gao and his Buddy arise to the stage as the crowd cheers for their arrival.
"Now that we're here, let's have a blast!" Gao said as Batzz smirked.
"And under exclusive contract with our park... He's Gao's opponent, Keisetsu of the Sword Arts!" He presented Keisetsu as he was ascended upstage.
"Keisetsu?" Gao asked as he recognized him. And Batzz had a glare on his face.
"Isn't that your friend, Kanata?" Minako asked.
"Think so. But why is Keisetsu fighting against Gao?" Kanata wondered.
"Isn't he with the CHAOS Four?" Noboru asked.
"Does that mean this park...?" Haruka asked. Then Zanya used his glasses to analyze.
'I knew I had a weird feeling about this.' Zanya thinks as he predicted the outcome would happen, 'Grimoire Park's a CHAOS Company! Just what are you up to, Wisdom?' He analyzed Keisetsu as his arms are crossed, showing no emotions at the moment, 'Why is your CHAOS 4 minion, fighting Gao?'
"You're no match for us!" Batzz said, "Bring us Wisdom!" He demanded the boss.
"I don't know where that lame-o is, I quit the CHAOS Company." Keisetsu explained rudely.
"No way! You really quit?!" Gao asked as he got surprised to hear that.
"Everyone! Please welcome Paruko Nanana! Enjoy the Buddyfight!" Grimoire made his announcement as he gave a bow and the stage has been set.
"Hi everybody!" Paruko said as she transported herself to the stage, "Whenever there's a Buddyfight, you'll find me, Paruko Nanana!" She came out from the hatch, "And I'm thrilled with the commentator for the first match at Grimoire Park!"
"Rumble! And tremble! The Dragon Lord that shatters the Earth! Lumenize! Thunderous Warlord Alliance!"
"Yeah. Yeah." Keisetsu said sarcastically, "Here, I Lumenized." He sarcastically lumenized without even getting out his chant.
"Was that sarcasm I just heard?" Minako asked.
"Buddyfight!"
"Raise the Flag!" Gao said with motivation but Keisetsu said with sarcastic tone.
"Thunder Emperor's Fangs! I start with 7 hand cards, 11 life points and one gauge!" Gao said as he starts out with that ability.
"I'm with Legend World."
(G: 11/ Item: None/ G: 1: None/None/None)
(K: 10/ Item: None/ G: 2: None/None/None)
"Just hang on a sec." Paruko interrupted after the match has begun, "Keisetsu. I can't see your Buddy Monster anywhere." She noticed that Keisetsu doesn't have a Buddy, standing by him.
"No, duh. My Buddy is here." He referred to his weapon on his back, "Demonic Descent Sword of the King, Laevateinn." He pointed it out.
"Hey, isn't that sword..." Kanata said as he recognized it.
"Why's he have it?" Zanya wondered how Keisetsu got his hands on it.
"The Ceremonial Buddyfight is about to begin! But I gotta say, Keisetsu has no way of dealing with the Thunder Empire's Formation!"
Later... Gao makes his final move.
"Final Phase!" Gao declared as he activates his Impact, "Eclipsing the darkness with flames! And brighten the hearts of the mistreated! The Mighty Sun Fighter is here!" He transformed into his armor as Batzz transforms into the Thunder Spear, "I cast!" Gao lifted the spear with all of his might. Then he jumps on the it as he flips and then runs towards the spear as he spins it around, "Impact!" He throws it as he dashes down, "Turbulent Thunder Spear! X-Tempest... Ulti-Buster!" He hits the spear as the x flames over Earth.
(G: ?/Item: ?/ G: 0: None/None/None)
(K: 0/Item: ?/ G: ?: None/None/None)
"Game End! Winner: Gao Mikado!" Paruko announced, "The X-Tempest Ulti-Buster wins the match! What a stunning victory!" Everyone cheered for Gao's victory.
"Yes, it was total team effort." Gao said as he bowed.
"It's strange. It's like he's not even trying to win." Gaito said as he noticed something odd about Keisetsu.
"Now that you mention it. This game does seem a bit fixed all of the sudden." Minako agreed.
"Yeah, like he lost on purpose." Kanata noticed it as well.
"But why would he do that for anyway?" Minako asked. Then Keisetsu walks towards Gao as he laughed.
"Well played, Gao." He complimented, "You're way stronger than I thought you'd be." He laughed as he extended his hand out and Gao takes and shakes.
"Kanata, you know Keisetsu pretty well, don't you?" Kuguru asked as they looked at him.
"Do you know something about him, Kanata?" Haruka asked.
"Anything can help, bro." Baku said as Kanata thinks.
"Gao needs you." Noboru said as he put his hand on Kanata's shoulder.
"Truth is... I once drew against Keisetsu in a Buddyfight tournament." He recalled the time when he fought against Keisetsu in a shop tournament, "But the Keisetsu I met, definitely wasn't the kind of fighter who'd throw a match." He explained, "Of course, that was a long time ago. I see that you also continued playing Buddyfight. Didn't you?" He asked, "Keisetsu..." Keisetsu then leaves the arena.
"We must get to the bottom of this." Zanya said as his Buddy appeared from the shadows, "Tsukikage. Follow him."
"Nin!" Tsukikage then vanished instantly to follow Keisetsu.
"Something's up." Batzz said as he realized something, "He didn't provide any resistances at all. That makes me mad." He said as he got angry.
"You're right. Keisetsu definitely wasn't here to win today." Gao agreed.
Later, at the head office from the Grimoire Park.
"You did well." Grimoire congratulated Keisetsu for accomplishing his task, "The crowd just loved the Buddyfight. And you threw the match just perfectly."
"So why do I feel sick?" Keisetsu demanded as he felt irritated after making the effort he made during the last match, "And why are you running this place? You're just Master Wisdom's secretary. I shouldn't have to take orders from you."
"I agree that our current situation is unique to us, but it's out of my hands. The fact is we both worked for Master Wisdom." Grimoire tipped his monocle, "And for now, this is how he wishes things to be." Then Keisetsu put on his wristband attached from his Buddy Item.
"You're just a lowly yes-man! Just like Tenko with her absolute loyalty to him." He said as he threatens Grimoire with his weapon, "So don't act all high and mighty with me!"
"You're absolutely right." Grimoire said as he got nervous with his hands up, "However..." Keisetsu got a bit confused and Grimoire put his hands down, "Unlike Tenko, my loyalty is not always absolute."
"Hm?"
Inside the building of the office in Grimore Park, Kanata and his Buddy, somehow managed to sneak into the building.
"Kanata, let's go home." Athora complained as he believed it was waste of time.
"Not yet. I wanna speak with Keisetsu first." Kanata explained the reason.
"You should leave that jerk alone."
"No, I can't do that." He refused, "There's something that I just have to ask him." Then Zanya appeared from above as he landed on the ground.
"You came to see Keisetsu?" He asked.
"Zanya? What are you doing here?" He asked as Zanya gave a shush.
"Shhh! I'm here. For the same reason." He explained his intention, "I need to confirm something for myself."
"Are you trying to figure out if he's still working with the CHAOS Company?" Athora assumed.
"That too, but...Shosetsu Kirisame has asked me to come here." He explained as Kanata was surprised.
"But why?" He asked, "He's that Legend World Representative from the Buddy Masters Tournament, isn't he?" He recalled the time.
"Yes, he is. And his Buddy and Item, the Immortal Sword of the King, Durandal was recently stolen from him." Zanya explained as he recalled what Shosetsu told him about Keisetsu.
'The thief called himself, Keisestsu of the Sword Arts.'
"Keisetsu stole it?!" Kanata asked as he got surprised of what Keisetsu have done.
"We can hear you, you know." Keisetsu said as he and Tenko, who came along, dragged Tsukikage who was wrapped by his Buddy's red leather scarf.
"Intruders detected." Tenko said as they got surprised.
"So, I'm the thief, am I?" He asked as he toss Tsukikage, releasing him from his bind as Zanya managed to catch him.
"Tsukikage." Zanya wondered if his Buddy is okay. Then Tsukikage reached out his scroll as he opened it, 'I failed!' Indicated that he failed his mission, "You scums!
"It's a good thing that Tenko's here. Her senses are really something, huh?" Keisetsu said.
"I do not. Accept compliments. Except for. Master Wisdom." Tenko said.
"Geez, excuse you for giving me the cold shoulders."
"Hey!" Zanya yelled to get their attention, "Just admit it! Will you?!"
"Now why would I do that? I know. Maybe if you defeat me in a Buddyfight. What do you say? You tough enough to me, Ninja Boy?" Keisetsu recommended as it got them frustrated.
"Irrelevant." Tenko said, "Our orders. Are to. Take them. In custody. For intrusion." She said as she prepares herself.
"Now. Now. Let me handle this, you can tell Master Wisdom that I manage to deal with the intruders." He said as Tenko stand down.
"Very well. However. If failed. Then I. Will capture them."
"Yeah, I know. Let's go."
At the Fighting Stage at Grimoire Park, the fighters, Keisetsu and Zanya are in position.
"Heavenly Moon! Overturn yourself! And slay all evil! Luminize! Kisaragi: Legend of God!"
"I am the Sword Sage! A Thousand Legends born of Thousand battlefields, the strongest swordsman! There's a million Demonic Sword! Luminize! Lord of Sabers!"
"I'll make you admit the truth about what you did!" Zany said as the stage has been set.
"Yeah yeah. If you win you mean." Keisetsu said.
"Then how about another condition?" Zanya asked as Keisetsu got confused.
"Hm? What sort of condition are you talking about?"
"If I win, then Tenko goes free!" He said.
"Is he saying..." Athora said.
"That he wants to release Tenko from CHAOS Four? But why?" Kanata asked as he got confused.
"Fine fine. Now can we get this over with?"
"Fine."
"Raise the Flag!"
"Katana World!"
"I'm with Legend World."
(Z: 10/ Item: None/ G: 2: None/None/None)
(K: 10/ Item: None/ G: 2: None/None/None)
"Do you think that Zanya can win?" Athora assumed for the expectations for him.
"I hope so." Kanata said as he turned to Tenko, "I take it that you're not going to cheer for Keisetsu?" He asked.
"My orders. Are to. Capture the intruders." Tenko said, "I do not. Care for the. Admiration to Keisetsu. Even if. He's the member. Of the. CHAOS 4."
"Ouch. Kinda harsh there." He said as he thinks, 'Just as I thought, Keisetsu. You're still mad about that Buddyfight match.'
"I have the first move! Charge and Draw! Buddy Equip!" He paid 2 gauge as he Buddy Equipped his item and regained one life, "Demonic Descent Sword of the King, Laevateinn!"
"Greetings, my Master." Laevateinn said after awakening.
"What's that? What's with the vile looking sword?" Zanya asked after first witnessing Keisetsu's Buddy Item's transformation.
"Actually, it's her true appearance." Keisetsu explained as all the platforms descended, "Woohoo!" He began riding his skateboard core gadget as Zanya's platform descended as well.
"What?!" Zanya got surprised, "The stage is moving!"
"Here I come!" Keisetsu said as Zanya prepares to defend himself for the attack, "Laevateinn!" He swings his Buddy Item as he inflicted 2 damage.
"This stage moves accordingly to his will!" Zanya predicted Keisetsu's plan.
"Pretty cool, huh?" He asked.
"He didn't do that against Gao." Athora said as he realized something.
"I guess he's actually trying this time around. But you knew about this, huh Tenko? Why?" He asked Tenko.
"I will not. Answer any. Irrvelant questions. To intruders." Tenko said.
"Hey!" Athora yelled.
"Wait, Athora. Let it go." He said.
"But Kanata..."
"She's right. We're enemies at this point. So I'm afraid I can't ask her questions all the time."
"Kanata..."
"My turn. Draw. Charge and Draw. I call Thunder Sky Ninja, Byakuya to the left!" He called out Byakuya in his Thunder Empire form just like Tsukikage.
"I'm ready to bring the pain!" Byakuya said.
"I Buddycall Overturn Ninja Tsukikage to the right!" He Buddycalled as he regained one life.
"Nin!" Tsukikage jumped as he transforms to his true form.
"Tsukikage have now evolved and has the power of Overturn! And I call to the center!" He called another monster into the center, "Nanomachine Zangetsu!" He called out a blue ninja, wearing the style similar to the original Tsukikage but also like Akatsuki as well, "Zangetsu's ability. With Resosance Effect and Tsukikage on the field, I draw a card!"
"Nin!" Tsukikage said as Zanya drew a card.
"With Byakuya on the field, I get a gauge!"
"And one life too, forsooth!" Byakuya said as Zanya regained his life back to the original ten and gained a gauge.
"You can have 20 for all I care. Monsters are useless in a match against me, Ninja Boy!" Keisetsu mocked at Zanya.
"Great, thanks for the tip." Zanya thanked sarcastically, "But I have items. I equip!" He paid one gauge to equip his item, "Moonlight Secret Katana, Kirameki!" He equipped a white Katana and a scabbard as he pulls it out and paid one life to equip, "This lets me attack even with the monster in the center!"
"Oh really?" Keisetsu asked while rolling around the stage, got a bit surprised but then smiled, "Then why don't you attack me already?"
"Zangetsu! Silence his babbling mouth! Go!" Zanya ordered his monster to give Keisetsu a punishable attack.
"Oh no! Please don't hurt me!" Keisetsu mocked as Zangetsu slashed at him, inflicting 2 damage, "Whoa! Haha!"
"Get him, Byakuya!"
"I will cross through Zangetsu's attack!" Byakuya said as he jumps up and swings his thunder shuriken, "Here comes a wind up and a pitch!" He throws the shuriken at Keisetsu.
"It's Ball One!" He used Laevatinn to block off the attack as he moves the shuriken away but he received one damage. However, Tsukikage managed to retrieved it and throws back to his brother.
"Thanks, bro! Now I can attack again!" Byakuya swings around while in the air as he throws it again at Keisetsu again.
"You're annoying me!" Keisetsu complained as he blocked it off but took 1 damage.
"Tsukikage! Get him!" Zanya ordered his Buddy to attack.
"Nin!" Tsukikage jumps up as he used his blade and slashed at Keisetsu, inflicting 2 damage.
"Here I come!" Zanya said as he appeared from behind Keisetsu and makes his attack. However, Keisetsu smiled but Zanya attacked him anyway, inflicting 1 damage, "Double Attack!" He slashed at him again, inflicting one damage.
"Hey, you're not bad. But not bad isn't good enough against my sword, Ninja Boy!" Keisetsu said.
"I'm not finished yet." Zanya said as he put his sword back into the scabbard, "Pay attention. You will win! Overturn Ninja!" Zanya made the sign for Over, "Tsukikage!" He made the second sign for Turn, creating Overturn, "Overturn! Discard one hand card and call Thunder Sky Ninja, Byakuya to the center! And Overturn Ninja Tsukikage to the left!" Zanya activated his Overturn as he discarded a card.
"And now I must be going!" Byakuya said as he and Zangetsu were sent to the Drop Zone due to the size limit.
"Thank you for your hard work." He said as he paid one gauge to call another Tsukikage to the left and call out a second Byakuya to the center.
"And now I'm back again!"
"Nin!"
"Tsukikage's Overturn. It lets Zanya attack once more with Tsukikage and Byakuya." Athora said as he figured out Zanya's strategy.
"Keisetsu's got 3 life. Zanya could take him out here." Kanata believed.
"Irrelevant." Tenko said.
"What do you mean by that?" He asked her.
"Keisetsu. Won't lose. So easily." She said.
"What makes you say that?" Athora asked.
"Observe the match. And see." She advised.
"This ends now! Byakuya! Attack the fighter!"
"Your wish is my command!" Byakuya makes his second attack as he throws his shuriken at Keisetsu again.
"No chance!" Keisetsu blocks it off but took 1 damage. However, like the last time, Tsukikage retrieved and throws it back to his brother again.
"Nin!"
"My elder brother's help gives me the strength of a hundred!" Byakuya used his Double Attack as he swings his shuriken a second time, "Double Attack!" Keisetsu blocks it again but dealing with one damage, leaving him one life remaining.
"Tsukikage. Finish him off!" Zanya said as the second Tsukikage jumps around quickly around Keisetsu to deal the finishing blow.
"I cast! Holy Grail!" Keisetsu managed to cast a spell as the Holy Grail protected him from Tsukikage's final attack.
"Nin!"
Zanya grunted in frustration after he was so close of beating him, " I thought he might have one. My turn's over." He declared.
(Z: 10/ Item: Kirameki/ G: 0: Tsukikage/Byakuya/Tsukikage)
(K: 1/ Item: Laevatinn/ G: 1: None/None/None)
"That was really close, Ninja Boy! But now it's my turn!" Keisetsu said as he rolled back to his position, "Draw! Charge. And Draw! I call Symbel Gard and draw two cards," He drew two cards, "Since you were kind enough to show me your Overturn, here's something of my own. It's my Overkill!"
"No way!" Kanata said as he got surprised.
"He has it?!" Zanya asked as he was surprised as well.
"Correct. Keisetsu possesses. Overkill. Not only me." Tenko said.
"With Demonic Descent Sword of the King, who needs monsters!" He used a sign for Over, "Laevateinn!" He used the sign for Kill, "Overkill!" Overkill was formed.
"Sword Skill Revelation!" His Buddy Item said after activating the effect, "Pay 1 and discard 1 hand card to check the top 5 cards in the deck, then equip 3 items at no cost.
"Fabricated Sword of the King, Eskesachs Replica!" He brought a red broadsword that it strikes on the left side of the stage wall, "Sword of the King, Excalibur!" He brought out the same sword that Shosetsu used as it was on the right side of the stage wall, "Immortal Sword of the King, Durandal!" He brought out Shosetsu's Buddy Item was on in the center of the stage.
"Durandal?!" Zanya got surprised after seeing that item, "That's Shosetsu's Buddy!"
"I cast Heroic Tale and gain 4 gauge!" Keisetsu cast as he gained 4 gauge, "And equip my remaining hand cards!" Kanata and Athora were surprised about Keisetsu equipping multiple cards.
"Just how many items is he going to equip?" Athora asked.
"Fabricated Sword of the King, Calaborg Replica!" He equipped a blue lance-like weapon, "Fabricated Sword of the King, Nagelring Replica!" A dark sinister weapon, "Fabricated Sword of the King, Armas Replica!" An aqua blue-bladed weapon, "Famous Sword, Hrunting!" The black familiar sword appeared. All four weapons he equipped appeared in front of him.
"Nin!" Tsukikage got surprised as Byakuya got scared.
"Oooooh! He's got eight swords in all! We're definitely doom for doomed!"
"It's unbelievable!" Zanya said as he wasn't expecting this to happen.
"Thanks to Laevatinn's ability, I can equip as many items as I want!" Keisetsu explained his Buddy's effect.
"That's just wrong! And it shouldn't be allowed in Buddyfight!" Zanya complained.
"Is this what you mean by 'Irrelevant?'" Kanata asked Tenko. She remained silent but then answered.
"Yes. Chances for. Zanya Kisaragi. To beat Keisetsu. Are extremely low. He. Will not. Stand a chance." Tenko said.
"Quit whining, punk! It's fair cuz I can't call any monsters!" Keisetsu said as he starts his attack, "But who needs them with my swords?!" He strikes at Byakuya with Armas, "That's how I roll, Ninja Boy!"
"I've been defeated, forsooth!" Byakuya aid as he got destroyed.
"Think I'll need this one next!" He pulled out Eskesachs Replica from the left wall as he makes his second attack, "Eskesachs!" He strikes at Zanya, inflicting 1 damage, "Double Attack! Here I come!" He turns around and attacks again with another 1 damage, "How about this one!" He pulled out Calaborg Replica and attacks again, "Calaborg!" He inflicted 2 damage this time, "Now for Nagelring!" He pulls it out from the ground as he slashed at Zanya, inflicting 2 more damage, then he pulls out Hrunting, "If you're not able to defend my next blow, Hrunting will finish you for good!" Keisetsu plans to make the final blow, however...
"I cast! Art of Body Replacement!" Zanya cast as he avoided the attack.
"No worry! I still got plenty more! Like this one!" He rolls over to Shosetsu's former item and pulls it off so he can attack.
"I cast! Art of Body Replacement!" Zanya cast another spell to avoid the attack.
"Excalibur!" He swings the attack but failed, "Ready for my Double Attack, Ninja Boy?!"
"Ready and waiting!" Zanya said as he prepared for another counterattack, "Activate Camouflage Ninja, Getazaemon's ability from my hand cards!" He activated the monster's ability from his hand, "Call to the center!" He paid 1 gauge as he called a stone monster with robotic hands and legs and has a Kabuki face in a shape of a square, "Camouflage Ninja, Getazaemon!" Keisetsu stopped his attack after the monster got in his way.
"Well, nice defending. But it's pointless now!" He complimented but then bragged, "I'm gonna win!" He continued his attack as he slashed Getazaemon in half as it got destroyed, "Might as well surrender, Ninja Boy! You got no hand cards left!"
"I will follow the path of the sword!" Zanya pulled out his Kirameki, "And fight til the very end!"
"The path of the sword, huh?" Keisetsu mocked, "A weakling like you should shouldn't even able to carry a sword! Now I think of it, your friend was just as feeble as you! This was wasted on him." He then turned to Shosetsu's Buddy, Durandal as he pulls it out from the ground, "So I liberated it and added it to my collection. I didn't even lose and I admitted it." He chuckled, "I guess I'm too honest, huh?" He asked as he goes to make his final attack with Shosetsu's Buddy Item, "That's it! I'm getting bored of you! Durandal!" He slashed at Zanya, inflicting 2 damage.
"Zanya's finished! Keisetsu still have a sword left!" Athora said.
"And poor Zanya has no way of blocking it." Kanata said.
"Now, I'll finish you off with Laevatinn!"
"Standby. And attack!" Laevatinn said.
"This is..." Keisetsu leaps up as he slashed at Zanya but he tried to block it off, "Demonic Descent Sword of the King, Laevateinn's power!" With full force, he managed to push Zanya's item down and dealt the final blow at Zanya.

"Did you really think you can beat me?" He asked as he won the match, "You did worse than your friend, Ninja Boy." He insulted at Zanya as Zanya groveled down in defeat. Zanya looked at Keisetsu with a frustrated look on his face, "I'm unstoppable." He looked at Kanata, "Kanata. You're a joke."
"Huh?" Athora said.
"Huh?" Kanata said as they walked and stopped. But then Tenko continued walking as she got near to Keisetsu.
"To gain enough power to defeat you, I joined Master Wisdom's CHAOS Army." He explained.
"You lie! You're still a member of the CHAOS Four!" Kanata said.
"In time, I'll crush you too, Kanata. With my Buddy, Demonic Descent Sword of the King, Laevateinn." He picked up his skateboard, "Something you look forward to. Come on, Tenko." He said as he and Tenko leaves, "You're mine."
Spotlight shown as Daisuke and Ryuusei appears on stage.
"Hello! It's been awhile, hasn't it?" Daisuke said.
"Well, we did have delays though." Ryuusei said.
"Don't push it. Anyways, the next chapter will be the Buddyfight match with Gao up against..." Daisuke tries to think, "Hmm, what's his name?"
"You don't know? It's..." Ryuusei tried to think too, "Actually, I don't know either."
"Then we'll have to wait and see for the next chapter. Give us a review of what you think and please provide for any more card ideas. Until then bye for now!" They waved goodbye as the screen faded black.
