Scouting

Robin watched as the two men shook hands but she felt there was more to this interaction than she could see. Togo was looking with wide eyes as she must know what's going on. "Togo-san what are they doing besides the handshake?" She blinked and began to explain "keh that guy there is hatsumi sen, a well known fighter who specialises in aiki. When they grab you your whole world gets flipped or so the rumours say". World flipped? Like whitebeard no that can't be possible. I should ask Logan later.

Back to the other two hatsumi was sweating a little. In his mind he thought "oi oi how can a young kid like him have such a mastery over aiki. It's overpowering me gently". Logan released the handshake "it was nice to meet you hatsumi sen, I look forward to facing you in the tournament" he said before walking away. Hatsumi could only reply "yeah" before he went back to his employer.

Hatsumi met up with his employer Nogi in a private room. "So Hatsumi-san how is the competition?" "Boss we should be very careful, there's other monsters here besides the fang". Nogi creased his brow in thought "the kure clan member and the wild tiger are the main ones you mentioned. I also believe that kuroki gensai would be one of the favourites to win. Who else?"

Hatsumi spoke "a young man by the name of Logan lee, he's terrifying to me" "how so hatsumi-san" "from his appearance I can see he's a little over the age of eighteen yet his level of aiki exceeds mine. There's also the fact that he's dabbling in numerous other martial arts. We shook hands so I could feel his callouses on his hands and knuckles. My guess is a grappler with mastery in a weapon art and a barehanded art. Maybe wing chun based on how he moved". Nogi began to run over his strategy processing Logan into it. "Who was he under" "iwami heavy industries".

Back to Logan and robin they had entered a dining hall filled with numerous fighters dressed in suit while numerous women pranced around in either a dress or a pan suit. Togo politely told robin who each was while Logan was checking the competition. He realised that there is one martial art he needs to acquire. He placed his hand to his chin and looked like a philosopher contemplating the mysteries of the universe. In his mind he thought "how the hell do I not know taekwondo yet!!!! I'm a Korean for gods sake and it's out countries style. I even know boxing thanks to that prick Zack lee. Who in kengan knows taekwondo...".

While he was thinking about who he needed to fight tonight he didn't notice the alluring blonde woman and the dark haired youth waltzing up to Togo. "Ara ara togo-chan sashiburi. I haven't seen you since my rei defeated your fighter. How are you doing" Togo grinder her teeth " kurayoshi Rino!! You skank piss off. My new fighters could easily crush your speedy pretty boy". Rino looked away from rino towards the duo in the back.

She was shocked for a moment as they seemed to be unaffected by her. The woman just stood their with a coy smile on her face while the man was pondering something. She could feel rei behind her get slightly restless when she glanced at the man. "Kurayoshi Rino, and you are" she asked while ignoring Togo's rant. "Nico robin and this is my husband Logan lee" the woman said shaking her hand. She looked towards Logan who was still thinking.

No one uses taekwondo he concluded after checking his memories. He felt a tug and opened his eyes to see robin nudging him towards some woman. "Hi" he replied not to interested in her. She replied "hello Logan san, mind telling me about yourself" she said stroking his arm. "Why should I?" He replied making her face change for a second.

"Don't you want to talk with me? Come on we could be friends?" She asked subtlety using her ability. Kurayoshi Rino has an ability called reproductive instincts that allows her to control men, it is intensified at touch so now that she's grabbing Logan he should be putty in her hands. "No thanks, you smell really bad. Imma go get some grub" he said pulling his hand away from her and walking away leaving the surroundings flabbergasted.

"Did he just reject the queen of the night" a side mob questioned. Another chimed in "that's not possible. No man can tell the queen bee no". Constant murmurings began. Togo began to ball her eyes out laughing at how she was rejected with robin chuckling to herself about what just happened. Rei mikazuchi began to grow angry, did he just say his rino smelled bad? Unforgivable. Rino herself was in shock, no man has never told her no before and no one has ever said she smelled bad. She was the queen of the night industry so her perfume has always been the top of the line, her natural scent is meant to ensnare males.

She could tell that the one in front of her was a true alpha so he should bow to her like all the others yet..... look at him. She watched as Logan found the buffet and tore a leg of a roasted chicken and began munching away. The other CEO's were watching her like a hawk to see how she reacts to this, to see if they can find a chink in her armour. The fighters however were locked between watching Logan with his domineering presence or mikazuchi rei with his building murderous intent.

Logan began snacking and felt something tickling, he'd grown used to fighting many monsters that blood lust of weaklings feels ticklish to him. He thought that there might be strong guys here before getting distracted by some bacon wrapped shrimp.
