Chapter 2 The Hokuto and Nanto fists vs The Britannians
It started out as a normal day in area 11. With the Britannian's going about their day. Until there was an attack that was caused by the Japanese resistance stealing poison gas. Hopeing to get an advantage against their enemies, the Japanese in the truck were Kallen Kouzuki and another driver named Nagata. Kallen was still thinking about Kenshiro and the way he killed those soldiers so effortlessly and in a bloody way. Still wondering how he did all that with just his fist, but she was then brought out of thought.
"Kallen, pay attention!" Nagata shouted
"After we finally stole this damn thing... It's all because Tamaki couldn't stick to Naoto's plan. And now we've got a problem!" They were being chased by the Britannia military and headed straight for the Ghetto.
In the Shinjuku Ghetto
Kenshiro was eating some rice from some people giving food to the poor and noticed a young boy alone looking very starved. He walked up to the boy, gave him his food, and walked away. The boy looked and said to himself, Thank you, as the boy continued eating.
Kenshiro was walking as he managed to learn much about this world from the locals that explained it to him. He was in Japan, or area 11, as they called it, after the conquest of the Holy Empire of Britannia. And injustice and persecution still remain the same in his world; the only difference is that there is no nuclear fallout.
His mind was lost in thought until he saw some people were watching TV, and on it was the news. "We apologize for the delay. Now His Royal Highness Prince Clovis, the third prince of Britannia, will address the nation. On TV, one of the members of the royal family, Prince Clovis."
"To all my imperial subjects! Including, of course, the many cooperative Elevens who choose to serve the empire of Britannia!" Clovis said, trying to look like a kind prince, but Kenshiro could see past that facade."
We're not elevens! We're Japanese! A random Japanese woman upset said.
"Do you not see my pain?" My heart was ripped from my chest only to be torn apart!" He said it overdramatically. "The remnants are filled with rage and sadness! However, as ruler of Area 11, I will not tolerate terrorism of any kind! Because the battle we fight is a righteous one, a virtuous battle to protect the well-being of one and all! Now then, everyone! I would like you to join me in observance of the eight who died for justice, in the line of duty." Kenshiro knew Clovis was talking shit, and he knew they would meet soon one day.
A moment of silence, please, the news said. All the Japanese in the ghetto didn't like the fact that the prince did not mention the Japanese who died. Kenshiro walked away with a gut feeling that a big battle was about to happen. Unknown to him, he was being watched by five men in cloaks with their faces covered. With one saying, "So Ken is here as well." Things are about to get interesting. With pride in his voice."
The Britannia settlement.
At the gambling building, two boys came out with cases full of money. One boy was named Rivalz, and he asked his friend, "Well, aren't you going to join Lelouch?" He asked.
The boy named Lelouch then said, "Aren't you?"
"Heh… It's sort of embarrassing," Rivalz said with a chuckle.
"And I agree with you." Lelouch said in agreement. "Besides, spilling tears over those people won't bring them back to life now, will it?" He said it in a pessimistic voice.
"Dang! That's dark, buddy." Rivalz was a little disturbed.
"It's all about self-satisfaction. It doesn't matter how hard you try, you can't do it. There's no way you can change the world."
Lelouch Lamperouge was not his real name. In fact, his real name was Lelouch Vi Britannia, the eleventh prince of the royal family. Along with his blind and crippled sister Nunnally, they were banished from their homeland Britannia after their mother was killed by terrorists.
Their mother was Marianne Vi Britannia, also known as Marianne the Flash, a woman who was of commoners blood but rose to become a knight. And Lelouch was all too suspicious that one of the members of the family was responsible for his mother's death. He confronted his father, the Emperor, that his mother should receive justice but rejected that idea, and as punishment for talking to him back, they were banished.
When Lelouch and Nunnally were banished to Japan, now known as Area 11, they met the prime minister of Japan, Suzaku Kururugi. They all became close friends but were separated when Britain declared war on Japan. But now Lelouch was thinking about what he saw in the sky last night; he saw the Big Dipper constellation shine so brightly as well as the North Star.
"What was that last night? And why do I get the feeling that a battle will happen? Maybe it's the chance I need." Lelouch thought to himself.
At the viceroy's palace
At a party for nobles and upper classmen, they had just watched Clovis Little Show. "You were magnificent, Your Highness! One would never guess that you were attending a party while doing that!" A woman said with glee.
Colvis said with pride. "After all, the viceroy is the marquee actor of Area 11. I need to change costumes quickly".
"My! You're so confident!" Another woman said.
"It's all in the performance. Since the media want a charismatic prince, I give them one" Clovid said with confidence.
"Untrue! Prince Clovis, our key purpose in life is to support and assist your reign in any way we can!" One man said, and in the background was an uninterested blonde man named Diethard. "His reign is a pathetic sham." The journalist knew all these people were just using Clovis as nothing more than a puppet.
"A soldier named Bartley came running in Y-Your Highness!
Diethard looked and said, 'Hmm? A soldier?'
"Gad, how wonderful of you!" Clovis said a little irritated.
I beg your pardon, Your Highness. My Lord… As Bartley whispered to Clovis.
Not another appearance for him! Hope it's not as dreary... Before Diethard could finish, he saw Clovis get very upset. "You fool!" And Bartley said the police were informed that it's medical equipment, that's all. If we scramble the army, there'll be a record.
"Deploy the Royal Guard! The Knightmares" as well! Clovis said with anger
In the armies hanger
Alert 1! Alert 1! 4th, 7th, and 8th rapid reaction companies, as well as the 31st air assault team, immediately scramble! Special Division 9, stand by for deployment! As the pilots are mobile.
On the highway
Lelouch and Rivalz were riding back to Ashford Academy, with Rivalz starting a conversation with Lelouch, who was reading. Until a large truck was right behind them. It was the truck stolen by the Japanese terrorist.
"You idiots! Watch where you're going!" Nagata said.
"No! Not that way!" Kallen warned him but it was too late as he drove into an unfinished road with police catching up to them.
"Control, the target has crashed at the abandoned V.O. building construction site," the policemen said. The military will take over. General Bartley's command. Him?! One questioned. "We have to retrieve it at all costs! That thing... in the wrong hands!
Back to the truck
Lelouch ran up to the truck to see if anyone was okay. With Rivalz complaining that they were going to be late for school. Inside the truck, Kallen looked and asked if Nagata was all right. Outside, Lelouch yelled if anyone was okay.
"Can you hear me? Are you okay?!" He yelled until he heard a voice in his head. "It's you… Finally, I have found my... " A voice was heard.
"Where…? Are you in there?" Before I knew it, the truck started to move, went speeding, and I fell inside the truck. "Stop! I'm in here!" He yelled as the truck moved. Lelouch muttered to himself. You'd think they'd stick a ladder on the inside, too.
"Stop the vehicle!" Surrender now, and you'll get the chance to defend yourself in court! Stop and surrender at once! Give up now or we'll shoot to kill!" The British Army men said as they started to shoot at the truck.
"Now what do we do?! That's the army!"
"Have you forgotten? That's what I'm here for!" Kallen said, walking to the back of the truck.
"Kallen! Let's use it here!"
"We can't."
"Why not?"
"Why not because that would mean a blood bath!" Kallen replied.
"You're right." Kallen did not notice that Lelouch was there, but he recognized her. He saw her at school. But unknown to everyone, one of the cloaked men who was running in the shadow was waiting for the right moment to strike.
"It's almost time for Britannia to face the power of Nanto Suichō Ken," the man said with a smile.
Back with Kallen, she got into the knightmare and started to attack the army until she saw another knightmare. Excerpt: This was the latest model. "I can only assume you dug that obsolete relic out of some scrap heap. An over-hill Glasgow is no match for a Sutherland! Not to mention a filthy Eleven who spurns the compassion of our glorious Emperor!" The man in question, named Jeremiah, attacked as Nagata drove into the path leading into the ghetto.
"Secondhand junk! Jeremiah said as he was about to hit Kallen's knightmare, but Kallen ditched her knightmare and launched it at Jeremiah. "I will admit it! I really like your spirit. However…!"
"That's enough, you Britannian scum!" A voice was heard on the transmitter, and Jeremiah looked in anger and said, Who said that? ? "Show yourself! I demand it."
"Look down here, pal," the voice said. As the pure blood looked down and saw a man in a cloak.
"Who are you? Are you an Eleven?"
The man in question took the hood off his cloak and revealed a man with silver hair. He then removed his cloak and revealed the man to be well-built; his muscles were big, like he was a bodybuilder, more built than most soldiers. But that did not matter to Jeremiah; all he saw was another Eleven scum.
"How dare you insult me! You filthy Eleven, I could kill you in one shot, you know."
Then the man said, "Then why don't you prove your power by fighting me one on one with your fist? He said, "Trying to goat him".
"Why would I fight with my fist?" Jeremiah questions.
"Because if you kill me with the robot, that makes you Britannian's cowards," the man insulted.
And it worked. "Fine, I'll prove we Britannian's are superior," he said, getting out of his knightmare.
Before we fight, what's your name, Eleven? Jeremiah questioned.
"My name is Rei Master of Nanto Suichō Ken style, born under Gisei the Star of Justice." He declared.
"The star of justice?" Jeremiah laughed. "The only justice is the justice of Britannia Eleven; let's see which one is stronger," he said, pulling out a sword.
"Very will," as Rei began to wave his arms in different ways. Jeremiah was confused at first but then tried to strike Rei as he ran ready to strike, but Rei used one of his techniques.
"Seiki Mōha!" He slashed the sword into pieces, which shocked Jeremiah but he did not have time to react as he was struck in the back of the head, knocking Jeremiah out.
"I hope this plan works," Rei said as he walked away. Looking at Jeremiah, unlike all the soldiers he fought with, this person has honor. It's the reason why Jeremiah is alive.
In the Shinjuku ghetto
The army had come to the ghetto to find the one who stole the poison gas. "The terrorists are hiding in the subway system. Your mission is to locate the weapon that they've stolen. Investigate the old subway system that runs through the Eleven residential district in the Shinjuku Ghetto. Report it the moment you spot them. Recovery of the target will be handled by us, the Royal Guard. You people bear the honorary title of Britannians now, but you were born Elevens! Therefore, the stench of these monkeys ought to be a familiar one! If you want to earn the right to carry arms, then show some results! This is your opportunity to show your loyalty to Britannia!" The Royal Guard said to the honorary Britannians.
"Yes, my lord!" The soldiers said.
Meanwhile, Kenshiro was under the ghetto until he saw the truck carrying poison gas. He also saw a teenage boy and ran over to see what was going on.
"Now I can use this chance to climb up... Huh?" The boy so a man come up to him. The man in question was a large man. He looked like a fighter, and then he spoke.
"What's this, and what are you doing down here? Are you alright, kid?" Ken asked
The boy then said, "Yeah, I accidently fell into this truck. Now I'm trying to find my way out of here. Kenshiro was about to speak until he felt an intense present. He looked up and saw a soldier spin and kick at him. But Ken easily blocked it and kicked at him, "WATA!" Ken yelled at the soldier who dodged Ken's attack, and then he spoke.
"That's enough mindless murder!" The soldier said.
Lelouch shouted, "Wait! Were not one of the..."
"Planning to use poison gas! Don't play dumb with me!"
"We are not here by choice. And if that's poison gas, it was made in Britannia, wasn't it?!" Lelouch yelled.
"My god…!" The soldier said she was shocked.
"Mindless murder?! Then why don't you just obliterate Britannia?" Lelouch shouted. Ken looked at Lelouch and could tell the boy had a grudge against Britannia.
"Lelouch? It's me, Suzaku." The soldier removed his help and revealed it to a boy no older than Lelouch.
"You... you became a Britannian soldier?" Lelouch asked.
"So you two know each other?" Kenshiro asked.
"Yeah, we've known each other since we were kids, and who are you? You don't look like you're with the terrorist.".
"I'm not my name is Kenshiro. I just happened to be passing through here until I came across your friend here."
And then, before they could continue, the device began to open. "Get down both of you!" On instinct, Suzaku pulled out two gas masks and tackled both Lelouch and Ken to the ground with both masks on their faces. And in a bright light shined, and in the light was a girl, not poison gas.
"That's not poison gas..." Suzaku questioned, and in that Ken knew something did not add up.
"Tell me the truth, Suzaku. Poison gas? This girl?" Lelouch questioned.
"Suzaku tried to defend himself. Hey, it's what they told us in the briefing. I swear!"
Kenshiro felt a hostile presence and saw the Britannian army surrounding them. "Stinking monkeys! Being an honorary Britannia will not excuse you!"
"But sir, Suzaku said, trying to defend himself and the others, I was told this was poison gas!"
The Royal Guard, however, was not pleased. "How dare you question orders!"
The Royal Guard then said, "However, in light of your outstanding military achievements, I'm going to be lenient. Private Kururugi, take this and execute the terrorist."
Suzaku then says. "But neither of them are terrorists!" There civilians who both got caught up in all this!"
The Royal Guard was upset at Suzaku. "You are insubordinate little! That's an order. Didn't you swear your loyalty and your life to Britannia?!"
"Yes, but... but I can't, " Suzaku said, trying to save Lelouch and Kenshiro. I won't do it, sir. I won't shoot civilians. I can't follow your orders, sir.".
The Royal Guard was angered by this defiant man; he pulled out a gun. Lelouch saw it: "Suzaku! Behind you!" The Royal Guard shot Suzaku in the back and then turned his attention to Lelouch and Kenshiro.
"Well, Britannian schoolboy, not a good day to cut class. And you Eleven, you came here at the wrong place at the wrong time. Collect the girl. After you've secured her, kill the student! And the Eleven"
"Yes, my lord!" The soldiers said. But Kenshiro had enough of this; seeing this man kill his soldier in cold blood was disgusting.
"I have a better idea; get lost." He said.
What did you say, Eleven? The Royal Guard said anger.
"I said get lost." He repeated.
"Kill the scum now!" The Royal said as they all got their guns out and ready to fire in the truck.
"Death to... Britannia. Long live Japan!" Nagata set off a self-destructed button, and the truck exploded, allowing Lelouch the girl and Ken to escape.
Prince Clovis and Bartley in the mobile G-1 base
"They got away?! And you call yourselves the Royal Guard?"
"Forgive me, my Lord!" The Royal Guard blast was mainly directed upwards, but the
"Why the hell do you think I only told you people about this?!" Bartley yelled.
"We'll continue the investigation!" The Royal Guard said.
Clovis then sighed. "The plan has moved forward to the next phase.".
"But, but Your Highness..." Bartley tried to reason with Clovis.
"If knowledge of her gets out, I'll be disinherited. Tell them back home we're carrying out a planned urban renewal here." He continued. As Clovis, the third prince of the empire, I command you! Destroy the Shinjuku Ghetto! Leave no one alive!"
Until they heard someone laughing, "Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!"
"Who is on this channel?!" Clovis demanded.
"You Britannians really are heartless, you know that." On the mean monitor, a cloaked figure appeared. "And to think they called me heartless.".
"Who are you?! Tell me now! Clovis demanded
The man then removed the hood and revealed himself to be a blonde man. His hair was short, and on his forehead was a red dot. His face had a look of pride, and his eyes gave off an aura of power.
"My name is Souther, the Master of the Nanto Hōō Ken style of the South Star. My star is Shōsei, the Star of Leadership. Me and my fellow master's are here to end your tyranny now, Prince Clovis." The man named Souther said it with confidence.
"How dare you show me disrespect you, Eleven! Where are you?" He demanded.
"On top of your little fortress." All the soldiers in there knightmare frame's looked and saw he was on top of the G-1 base.
"Now let me show you real power!" He moved his arms and hands into a cross stance. As an aura of gold formed around him in the shape of a bird, it was a phoenix. Everyone who was on the surface, saw the light shine up the heavens.
"Wh-what is this?!" Clovis was shocked at the power.
Then many golden lights ascended to the heavens; this was one of the South's secret techniques.
"Nanto Hōō Ken Tenshō Jūji Hō!" Souther called out his technique. "There are no stances in the South Star Phoenix Fist more powerful than the Heaven-Soaring Cross Phoenix technique; now feel my wrath!" He continued to shine, and out of nowhere it started to rain hail.
Everyone in the ghetto saw it was raining hail as they all looked up. Most of the Eleven's began to cry tears of joy, believing it was a sign from God. While others like Kallen were confused, "What the hell is this?" She said in her knightmare.
"The heavens are thrilled to see this power! Now! Face the power of the phoenix soaring in the heavens itself!"
As Souther jumped off the base with a fire-like aura around him. The knightmares opened fire on him, but their bullets went right through him. And as he came down, he went past all of them, and somehow the knightmares were all cut in half with most of them ejecting their pilots, and some of them ran away in fear.
"Now you see what true power is!" he said as he walked away.
Underneath the Ghetto
Lelouch and Kenshiro, who was carrying the green-haired girl, were once again cornered by the army.
What an appropriate location for a terrorist to meet his end. The Royal Guard was about to kill him and Ken.
"You scum…!"
"Still, you did well for a student, but that's to be expected. You're a Britannian. And you Eleven, you have more skill than I thought. Unfortunately, my clever young friends, neither of you have a future."
He mustn't die! The woman ran and pushed Lelouch out of the way but was shot in the head.
You shot her! Lelouch yelled. Now Kenshiro was enraged; it was about time to make a stand
Oh well, nothing can be done about it now. We'll tell our superiors that the Royal Guard found the terrorist hideout and killed them all. Regrettably, the female hostage had already been tortured to death. What do you think, schoolboy? You Eleven?
"How can this be happening?" First Suzaku was killed... And this girl... Now, I'm about to die. Before I've had a chance to do a single thing with my life. It's gone in a heartbeat... Nunnally…!"
"You don't want it to end here, do you?"
"What…?" Lelouch questioned
"You appear to have a reason for living.".
"The girl? That's impossible!"
"If I grant you power, could you go on? I propose a deal. In exchange for this power, you must agree to make my one wish come true. Accept this contract, and you accept its conditions. While living in the world of humans, you will live unlike any other. A different place, a different time, a different life. The power of the king will condemn you to a life of solitude. Are you prepared for this?"
A convergence with the Ragnarok connection? So the myth is beginning once again?
"Yes! I hereby accept the terms of your contract!" The contract was complete.
"Say... how should a Britannian who detests his own country live his life? He thought to himself, "
"Enough!" Ken yelled in anger.
What how dare you, Eleven? You wi-
"Shut up, you scum. I'm going to give you one last chance. Leave now or die."
"Wait, you can't face them by yourself; you'll get yourself killed!" Lelouch yelled, knowing he had the power.
"If you think you're so tough, then fight us if you can." The Royal Guard said.
"Fine then, you choose death." Ken said coldly as he cracked his knuckles.
"What are you fools waiting for? Kill them".
"WATA ATA ATA ATA ATA WATA" Kenshiro's attacks were like lightning as he kicked and punched all the soldiers.
"Hyappō Zan," Ken said with power.
"Ahhhh! " All then men screamed as all their heads exploded.
"Wh-how-how did you?!" As Ken walked up to him. No stay back. As The guard said pulling out a gun.
"You don't seem to understand that you're a dead man." Ken Furry punched the royal guard, "ATATATATATATATATATATA WATA!"
Hyakuretsu Ken!
As the man was sent flying into a wall with bruises, his body started to rupture. "Ahhhhh! Who are you?" The man shouted in pain.
"My name is Kenshiro, and you're already dead."
"Ahhhhhhhhh!" as the scum exploded.
Lelouch was shocked, terrified, and amazed at what the man named Kenshiro just did. Just then he noticed the scars on Ken's chest; they were in the shape of the big dipper.
And Lelouch asked him, "Who are you?" Really".
Ken introduces himself: "I am Kenshiro, 64th successor of Hokuto no Shinken."
Ok that's good until the next chapter please tell me in the comments what you all think.
