Doctor Bosconovitch also makes an appearance due to his alliance with Lars and his rebel army, Yggdrasil. Here is the Chapter 27.
Chapter 27: Connections with the Human Psychic
It reveals that Leroy had allowed Feng to move at the outskirts of the United Nations Main Headquarters so that they can continue their deadly bout. Their fight became more evenly match as Feng demonstrates some of his new moves.
"Not bad... and you just want to have a revenge match because of your loss to me."
Feng attempts to execute his Rage Art which is his Enlightened Yellow Dragon Palm, but Leroy manages to make a counter including his Rage Art, Dark Dragon Commandment. Leroy elbows him followed by a barrage of punches. He grabs his throat and sweeps his leg underneath to set him off balance before he punched and stomped him into the ground. Once Feng stands up, Leroy performs his one-inch punch with his left hand that caused a dragon phantom to fly around in past to his opponent. Feng does not accept his defeat due to his motivation of revenge. Leroy attempts to deal the final blow, it was blocked by Nina who shoots him with her dual handguns which he dodges. She rescues Feng and soon escape the premises using a smoke grenade. Leroy looks on and seeing that Feng has sided with the enemy.
"Your late master Wu Zihao will not be happy for making an alliance with Kazuya and G Corporation." Leroy commented and soon whistles to call his pet dog, Sugar who comes to his side and both leave.
Hunyo was surprised to see both Jin and Rhima until Brian sees him who are ready to depart to the volcanic island in Taal.
"Hunyo, we have to go-. Your daughter was here!? How did she-?"
They soon make an extra time for their departure because of both Jin and Rhima's presence and they eventually learned about what happened to the World of Tekken.
"So Kazuya had continued the bloody carnage as Jin was mainly responsible for making the global war. That onion bastard needs to get his large head examine." Hunyo said in dismay.
"But how did you get through our world, Rhima? And how come Jin is with you?" Rei asked and Jin sees Hunyo and his group had also changed as well after six long months.
"In fact, we got transported because of the necklace that Mrs. Kazama gave it to me. That is when Feng attempts to kill me using his Rage Art by absorbing its dangerous aura." Rhima answered and Hunyo was horrified after learning what happened to his daughter.
"Rhima... you shouldn't had fought that guy in the first place."
"Because of Rhima's presence, my father Mishima Kazuya had continued to hunt her after she was captured by him and G Corporation for the first time. Currently, we were staying at the main headquarters in UN. And I'm sure that Lars was having contacts with someone aside from Raven." Jin said explaining about their stay in the main headquarters until Hunyo comically checks upon him. "Mr. Panganiban...?"
After checking Jin due to his current muscular physique, Hunyo makes a comical remark on him while saluting to check his current height.
"Man, you were one-inch taller than me and your build looks different."
"..."
"With that pound of muscle, you were just like many collegiate basketball players to get recruited by university coaches or in Gilas Pilipinas." Hunyo commented about Jin's current physique causing the latter to ask Rhima for his humorous comments.
"What is he talking about, Rhima-san? After he had checked on me."
"He says that your build is from the basketball players being recruited by coaches in any basketball organizations at my place. Even me myself can't even recognize your physicality."
"They really think of me that I was big boned?" Jin reacted while raising his brow.
"Well since Hunyo is a college sports professor, he knows his role. Usually, guys like Jin's current build and height are also qualified to get recruited by the universities such as both UAAP and NCAA." Brian stated about Jin's current physique and soon they changed their topic.
"Mr. Panganiban, how come you've seen your daughter? And all of us couldn't see their presence." Rick pointed out about their presence and Hunyo reveals it.
"I easily see my daughter and Jin's presence because they were in their spiritual projection form."
Hunyo tries to pat at Jin which causes a yellow light on his right shoulder, confirming they are in their spiritual forms.
"No wonder you can see souls, Hunyo." Rolento reacted and Rhima reveals to them.
"Dad... how long can you keep this to everyone? You were a former paranormal investigator after all."
"What!? A paranormal investigator."
"Okay, you got me. Because I can see spirits are roaming all over the place. Everyone thinks I've seen other supernaturals like white, black and red ladies. But for Jun Kazama's case, she was a human psychic. Her energy ki enables her to travel to the real world within her spiritual form. This is the same way as both Jin and Rhima came here too in spiritual forms." Hunyo admitted his former role to see any forms of supernaturals and paranormal.
"Rhima-san... I tried to stop you from doing something stupid and it was the necklace that my mother gave you is the reason we got transported. But I couldn't understand myself, I have the Devil Gene but I can travel through your world the same way as mother does."
"It's because of your mother's blood, Jin. Remember when Mr. Mishima was possessed by his own devil side who tried to get your devil powers but your mother's blood is able to resist that assimilation." Rhima said clarifying about Jin's family's blood between his parents and seeing him as a hybrid as he remembered during the near conclusion of the fourth tournament.
I remember that, that's when I was captured by the Tekken Forces and was knocked unconscious. And I was bounded in chains because my late grandfather Heihachi had been planning to capture me and my father, Mishima Kazuya. His devil side had took over him and he knocked Heihachi out with his telekinesis so that he will bring out my devil power. But he noticed that my mother's blood is the reason it resisted the assimilation, leading my father to take control of his devil side as his own and he tried woke me up. Because of him, I suffered nightmares by telling me to give in to my anger and I really did even after I got suffered by the effects of the Devil Gene within me and I was angrily pissed off by taking Kazuya out. But, I also remember about mother's words about her power to purify both evil and corruption.
Suddenly, Rhima's amulet from her necklace glows knowingly that their time here in the real world is up and everyone sees them.
"Your necklace is glowing..."
"Looks like I'm about to go, Rei. And dad... take care of yourself." Rhima said calmly and Hunyo was happy to see his daughter.
"Remember this, Rhima... I know Kazuya was smart enough to capture you the first time. Don't let yourself be captured by him again and Jin and the others are here to protect you. The only way to beat Kazuya is to outsmart him." Hunyo said as Rhima nods in agreement.
"Mr. Navarro... Hwoarang wants to say hi." Jin informs Brian about his rival Hwoarang. "He likes to face you in a sparring match once he comes back here."
"Are you saying that he surpassed Baek?" Brian wondered in confusion on Jin's words and Rhima compliments on her father's look.
"Mom will be more excited to see your new haircut, dad. Beat the hell out of that bomb terrorist and break a leg."
"We'll be rooting on you, Mr. Panganiban. You need to give it all you got to fight that bomb terrorist." Jin excitedly cheers on Mr. Panganiban's final mission and Hunyo happily nods as both he and Rhima soon disappears due to her amulet had glowed brighter as it flashes in white.
"They disappeared..." Mariana said after seeing the white light and Hunyo tells them.
"All right, enough pep talks... We're going to the volcanic island. I'm sure that Jang-geum would threat their lives on that island."
Both Jin and Rhima eventually transported back to the heliport of the UN main headquarters and knowing the effects of Rhima's necklace.
"I'm glad we're back to the heliport."
"Jin, I need to tell you something..." Rhima said wanting to tell Jin about Azucena.
"What is it?"
"It's Azucena... remember we stayed at one of the cabins from her coffee plantation branch in Italy. I tried to outsmart her by blocking her offensive moves. But her stance involves her to dodge her opponent's attacks."
"That Peruvian girl...?" Jin wondered since they had stayed overnight at her plantation.
"I'm sure she can dodge your Wind Hook Fist if she does that stance. However whenever she do this stance, she lacks guard or blocking." Rhima warns him about Azucena's dodge stance.
"I feel much relaxed if you and I we spar. Since this is her coffee farm, we're going to get messy and dirty." Jin smiled when he had spar with Rhima at the coffee farm.
"Are you saying we're gonna get messed up with dirt and mud if we spar each other on her coffee farm? You didn't tell me about this." Rhima reacted since she hates getting untidy and Jin happily shrugs.
"I grew up and live in the Yakushima mountains. It's pretty normal for me. If we do that at my home island at Yakushima, it will be much more messier. You might even see me much more dirty."
"Oh my God! How could Xiaoyu can tolerate this weird behavior of yours? You always think something ridiculous and messy." Rhima commented badly over Jin's likes from getting untidy.
"I'll tell Lars to spar with him tomorrow morning. I'll keep your word, Rhima-san. I need to know how to deal that Peruvian's dodge stance since Lars is more agile than me. We need to get some sleep."
As Jin leaves to get some sleep, Rhima clearly understands him since tomorrow is going to be a sparring session with most of the fighters present.
The next morning, Lars was contacted by an anonymous caller where he arrived at the heliport. To his surprise, Alisa arrives while she carrying her human father, Dr. Bosconovitch.
"Lars... I'm glad to see you. Mr. Lee and I tried to search for you in the rebel base."
"Actually, we left the base by helicopter to find Rhima's whereabouts after she was captured by Kazuya once." Lars said confirming of their leave the main base and Dr. Bosconovitch came to see him.
"Lee Chaolan was coming this way from the large flying boat, Vidopnir."
The flying boat resembles a large air craft appear to be land on the heliport and Lee arrives in his Violet suit while wearing his black goggles with orange tinted lens. Due to him working as a staff officer in Lars's rebel group. Lee is also revealed as the anonymous caller who contacted Lars to find his whereabouts.
"Lee... It's been a while."
"I tried finding you by paragliding and I've learned that you ended up in this UN main headquarters. Well using Vidopnir was very come and handy to find you." Lee smirks on his younger adopted brother. "So what's the reason why you ended up with the UN, Lars."
"It's a long story, Lee... Jin and I we searched for Rhima's whereabouts in Italy then we ended up here. In fact, that Rhima was mainly targeted by Kazuya by capturing her." Lars answered his question and Lee was surprised and shock to hear that Rhima was in their world as he put his black goggles on his forehead to resemble a headband and replied surprisingly.
"Rhi-Rhima-san was here!"
