1.84: The All-out Barrage Begins

~WATER PROWESS: RAINFALL!!

SPLASH!!

A massive wave of water dropped some students to the ground, with Mitsu landing in the middle.

"THIS FEELS GREAT! HOW ARE YOU HOLDING UP, SANETOMO?"

SMASH!!

She slammed one of the boys through the wall. "Whew, this is more tiring than I thought…"

"You're pretty skilled for a medical ronin. Where did you learn all this?"

"Well, my husband taught me all I know-"

SNATCH!

Before she could react, Ogata grabbed her flag away. "-What?"

"Sorry, sweetie. But duty calls for all the students."

She began sulking from her defeat, but Mitsu would not let this go.

"How DARE you sneak on your wife for such a cruel act?!"

"I taught her to always be on her guard. She just forgot that today." He responded. 

"You men are all the same. We clean the dishes, the house, the laundry, EVERYTHING! And all you men can do IS SCREAM WHENEVER YOU ARE HUNGRY!!!"

~WATER PROWESS: TSUNAMI!!

WOOSH!!

An enormous wave surrounded him from above without any chance of him avoiding it.

"Damn it!"

~BLOOD PROWESS: VEIN REGENERATION

DRIP!

One drop of blood fell in the wave, turning it all into blood. The wave regrouped and returned to the caster.

"Well, that's a first."

"I hope I was not late to aid, Ogata." Lincoln showed up to help him against Mitsu.

"No, but I could have easily dodged that if I wanted to." He responded. 

"I believe you; let us join forces and face them."

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

BOOM!

More students were knocked out in the west wing. Yamato and Gonzales had the area under their control.

"I just happen to remember how useful your prowess is in these battles," Gonzales praised him.

"Yeah? I missed fighting, so leaving Rebirth felt like a huge weight off my shoulders."

"But you got downgraded to the school gatekeeper…"

"I know, but at least I have more freedom than before."

"Good point.."

"Are you guys done talking?"

Trae Mark, a member of the Blue Moons, attacked them from below. She used her Armament to break to the rooftop and catch them off guard.

SLASH!

Yamato blocked her blade in time.

"Huff, you're a guild member….yet you can already wield an armament? How impressive."

"Give me your flags, or let me take it by force."

Gonzales then held another human by the edge of the roof. "I say you go help this kid before he becomes a blood puddle."

"I know that you-"

He dropped him right after she spoke a word. "Humans are such a pain…"

HOP! 

She caught him in the air but had already been attacked by Gonzales.

"You're wide open!"

~MAXED ANVIL!!

BLAST!!

Gonzales was sent back to the roof by the attack.

"I did not require the help from a devil, kid," Trae said.

"I was not saving you; I just wanted to spare the flag for myself."

"Just as I'd expect."

Another ronin joined them, and he, unlike the others, was one of the oldest students. "Makoto Blake, it is a pleasure to witness the Maxed Anvil in person finally."

"Who do I owe the pleasure?"

"Ando Motsubi, class 3-2. I heard you were a gunslinger, so I just wanted to see my competition."

"Your…competition?"

He shot a grenade from his shotgun to the ground, and it suddenly teleported him to Yamato and Gonzales.

~THUNDER PROWESS: WATCHING STORM!!

BOOM!!

It exploded, with flames and lightning in sync. "I just wanted to remind you that I am the best."

("Whoa…he shot it without the need to even glance at his opponent.") That's a bold statement, but I'm not threatened by mere competition."

"We still have a problem on our hands."

They were both alerted as scales shrouded the building.

"W-what the hell?!"

SLASH!!

Gonzales and Yamato were mounting a great snake. "Sorry if I underestimated you guys, but it's time to get serious now!"

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

"LET GO OFF ME!!"

Giyora struggled to escape Nikki's chains while Suno was waving his flag on his face.

"This was way easier than I thought, right Nikki?"

"For a parent…he sure is weak. HAHA!"

"I'LL SHOW YOU WHO'S WEAK!" He exclaimed.

"Ho~? You'll beat us?" Suno asked. "You're not seriously going to fight girls, are you? How high is your ego?"

Nikki let him go and kicked him away. "You're a waste of a man. UGH!"

~WIND PROWESS: RAVEN TORNADO!!

BWOOSH!!

Giyora wasted no time and fired a wind attack towards them.

"Wow, talk about chivalry…" Suno said. "Well, can't be helped."

She clenched her fist and took a step back. "Let me teach you WHAT EQUALITY REALLY MEANS!!"

~HUMMING PALM: ASSAULT!!

BOOM!!

She split the tornado in two and charged towards him.

"HUMMING PALM: E-"

SWING!

A sword separated her and Giyora as she took a few steps back. "Tch!"

Giyora regrouped to his and stood next to his ally. "Thanks for the support."

"A little favor to Tedashii is all." He walked towards them and held his sword out. "My name is Sanji Misaki! And I'm going to rise to the top of Rebirth!"

BADUM!

…

Suno and Nikki blinked at each other and laughed his claim off. "HAHAHA! The people who have done nigh during every apprehension? That Rebirth?"

"Come on. If you wanted to fight so badly, I think you made a wrong decision joining them-"

SLASH!

He cut a piece of her hair from a long distance and charged from behind.

~SWORD STYLE-DIMITRIOS: PLET!

He disappeared and aimed for both their backs.

~FIRE PROWESS: FIRE FIST!!

BAM!!

Sanji blocked the attack from above but got burned as his sword absorbed some heat. "AH!!"

"Well, didn't you arrive late?" Suno said.

"Sorry, I had to get myself a flag of my own." He showed them nine 1 thousand flags.

"Whoa! You copped nine of them?" Nikki asked.

"No, we did. It was harder than expected since the human parents hid for us to seek…but they'll never escape my prowess."

Franco and Yuro both arrived at the aid of Suno and Nikki.

"I remember you. You're the guy that saved me during the apprehension." Yuro said to Sanji.

"Would say it's been a while, but regarding the circumstances…"

"Yeah, likewise. I'm sorry, but…you dare lay a hand on Suno," He began building spiritas. "And it won't just be the fire you'll worry about!"

"The same goes for Nikki. What's mine is mine, buddy." Franco also created his zone.

Sanji summoned both his Armaments, Dimitrio and Gael. "Mr Katsuno, it's a four-on-one, think you can lend me a hand?"

He charged up and took his stance.

"Correction, it's a tag team match."
