Confrontation

"Are you guys sure about this whole assassination thing? It's already been three days and I've not even seen anything happen?"

Within a small restaurant, multiple figures sat at a table, having lunch, while a youth with shaggy blonde hair dressed in a white shirt and pants complained while eating his food.

"Right, go ahead and blurt it out to the whole world that you're being assassinated.."

Another man dressed in an all black suit wearing a pair of dark shades rolled his eyes at the blonde youth's antics.

"I hate vegetables! Makes me wanna barf. Ugh!!"

Beside them, an auburn haired young woman rubbed her stomach in disgust, watching the plate of vegetable salad offered to her.

"Calm down Power. We can change it if you want.."

A young man dressed in a white jacket and jeans smiled and calmly spoke, causing his teammates to raise their brows.

"Don't be nice to her Yoshida. She's a fiend after all.."

The man in the all black suit adjusted his glasses and spoke with a condescending expression, while glaring at Power, the auburn haired young woman with two blood colored horns on her head.

"You're going to regret saying that!!" Power was about to lash out in anger, when Denji grabbed her hand and forced her to calm down.

"You guys shouldn't talk to Power like that, devil, fiend or human, she's still a person.."

Denji mumbled on and on, meanwhile, beside them, Yoshida, the young man in the white jacket and Hamura, the man in the all black suit, both of them being captains of their respective divisions had already noticed suspicious movements within the place and only chose to play along.

Right across their table, two figures sat at a different table, while one of them maliciously glared at Denji for some reason.

"I've already pricked him 3 times. After the fourth prick, he would be as good as dead, and then we can focus on the real challenge.."

One of the figures, a woman dressed in a long black skirt smiled towards her partner, a young man with short blonde hair and winked.

The next moment, she picked up a small needle and pretended to stagger in her movements and crashed towards Denji's table.

Before any of the captains could even realize, she swiftly and stealthily pricked Denji's arm, before slowly getting up and rubbing her forehead in exhaustion.

"I'm very sorry, you guys. I just came back from chemotherapy and I'm feeling a bit dizzy.."

She spoke as the two captains frowned, although they nodded and excused her, letting her walk away into the restroom.

"Notice anything strange, Yoshida?" Hamura asked in a low voice, while looking at Yoshida.

"Nope..." Yoshida replied while shaking his head.

A few minutes later, the young man who was sitting beside the suspicious woman stood up and walked out of the restaurant, as the two captains glanced at each other.

.

"Are you sure we can go into the mall? I thought you guys are supposed to be protecting me, but I feel like I'm being paraded around like an object..."

Standing before a huge mall, Denji couldn't help but complain, while rubbing his forehead.

"It's alright Denji..we're here to-...watch out!!!!!"

Yoshida was about to explain the situation, when his instincts flared out of nowhere. The next moment, he pushed Denji away with an arm, while he propelling himself backwards with force.

In a split second, a large bolt of lightning crashed into the area where Denji previously stood, decimating and charring everything.

A devil hunter behind them wasn't so lucky. Tendrils of the lightning smashed into his body, which hurled him through the sky, as he puked blood and crashed into the ground.

"Shit!!!! Kenshin, go check up on him!!" Hamura roared out, while he, Yoshida and Denji and couldn't turned around and noticed two figures standing at the top of a tall building.

"Captain!!!" Kenshin called out in horror. When they rushed there, they realized that, the face of the person who had been destroyed by the lightning had changed to a face Yoshida was familiar with.

"Shit. I know him. He's from a mercenary group in the USA, and his three brothers are his accomplices. They have a contract with the skin devil..."

Yoshida replied and settled everyone's doubts.

Just as they were speaking, all the humans walking around ceased movement in a sudden.

The next moment, the features began to twist into that of dolls as their skin paled and multiple stitches appeared on their bodies. Their heads turned in unison towards the team of devil hunters, before they began to rush towards them in their numbers.

"Everyone, inside the restaurant now!!!" Hamura blurted out in horror, seeing the hordes of human dolls rushing towards them. The next moment everyone rushed into the restaurant at full speed, shutting the door behind them.

Standing on top of the building, two figures couldn't help but laugh out seeing the devil hunters scurry inside like cowards.

"What a bunch of cowards.." A youth with short grey hair, dressed in a black coat blurted out. He had an unusual pair of green pupils that seemed to glow even in the light.

"I heard the Gojo guy is pretty strong. I just hope he doesn't disappoint us..." Beside him, another man dressed in a blue shirt spoke out.

"You bunch of rascals are here already?" Behind them, an old man holding onto a walking stick walked out with a grim smile.

"Santa, santa...you look good, old man..." The silver haired youth was the first to roar in laughter, seeing the figure of the old man.

"Aren't we supposed to go after the chainsaw boy?" The old man spoke out while his eyes twitched furiously.

"Chainsaw is but a small fish. The real reason why any of us accepted the mission is because of the one they call Gojo Satoru.."

The grey haired youth laughed with arrogance.

"At the same time, we're waiting for veil and the others..."The moment the man in the blue shirt spoke out, a black veil resembling a shield immediately encapsulated the restaurant.

"Speak of the Devil..." The grey haired youth laughed and the next second, a figure arose out of the shadows, clad in darkness itself.

Beside the figure, an ant like figure, in the likeness of man jumped out of the shadows, before its body enlarged.

With a face like that of a young man and a body that resembled that of a man with scales running across in a zig zag fashion.

"It's good to see the team back together..." The new devil figure with the body of a man spoke out, while the one that emerged from the shadows looked on with an apathetic expression.

*VROOOM!*

In about a few minutes, a black SUV pulled up in front of the restaurant and multiple figures walked out hurriedly.

"That silver haired brat hasn't still arrived?!" Kishibe was the first to walk out with his cigarette in his mouth and his left hand in the pocket of his coat.

The next second, Makima walked out, before Aki, Angel and Himeno all walked out behind her.

"It seems we'll be seeing a couple of old friends once more.."

Makima chuckled as she turned around towards the group of figures on top of the building.

*SWOOSH!*

Before anyone could even realize, a silver haired youth wearing a blindfold mysteriously appeared, dressed in his signature long necked jacket and pants.

"Oi, good to see you again old man.." He teased, before turning his gaze towards Kishibe. Without uttering any other words, he walked towards the veil and gently placed his palm on it.

*BANG!*

His body was hurled back as he skid a few meters with his palm completely burnt off.

"Hehehehe.." Satoru couldn't help but chuckle, before a cool energy encapsulated his palm healing his wound and turning his hand back to normal.

Walking forward fearlessly, Aki placed his hand on the veil, however on contact, his palm entered into the veil facing no impediment whatsoever.

"I see. It's a veil that allows everyone else to go in, in return for keeping Gojo Satoru out...these bastards did come prepared.."

Satoru chuckled, before his gaze turned towards the couple of figures standing at the top of the building.

"I'm guessing he's the Gojo guy...his energy output isn't bad..I wonder what devils he is contracted with.."

The grey haired youth commented while watching Satoru with examining eyes.

"He's nothing impressive.." The man in the blue shirt blurted out while similarly scanning the silver haired devil hunter.

"Hmmm?" The next second, Satoru raised a brow, and gently lifted the left edge of his blindfold.

"Aki, Angel..come with me.." He grabbed both of their collars and pulled them to an empty area.

"What is it?"

"What is the problem?"

They asked simultaneously, but Satoru squatted in front of them and condensed a ball of negative energy around his fingertip.

"Denji and the others are in danger...I'm sending you both as backup..."

He spoke and began to trace his finger on the ground forming a black circular seal around their bodies.

"Aren't we supposed to stay here and help you against those guys?" Angel raised a concern, while Satoru only shook his head.

"These bunch of idiots aren't enough for me to take even seriously..."

He chuckled arrogantly, before interlocking his fingers.

*Swoosh!*

Clasping his palms together Aki and Angel mysteriously disappeared while a gust of wind erupted.

"What?!" The group of figures couldn't help but blurt out in surprise especially the grey haired youth feeling a sense of familiarity from Satoru's actions.

"Are you bunch of idiots going to descend from there or should I come there myself?"

Slowly pulling off his blindfold, he laughed, before his azure gem like pupils glared at the figures at the top of the building who were immensely shocked at this point.
