____Narration____

[At 1.79 meters tall, weighing 77kg, with a record in Kengan fights of 1 win and no losses! They say he's as fast as lightning! From the Gold Pleasure Group, the Lightning God, Mikazuchi Rei!]

In the arena hallway, Yuji watched as his opponent entered the arena before Sayaka finished her presentation, the young woman lecturing him for it.

"Be careful, this guy looks strong." Yuji listened, turning to see Senju and the girls behind him, with the odd addition of Hatsumi Sen and Soryuin Shion.

"Easy kid, this guy is fast." Hatsumi spoke with his usual serene tone, Yuji looking at him for a few seconds, before turning to Shion, who smokes a cigarette seemingly uninterested in the situation, although the boy clearly saw the woman giving him a few glances at her body, which made him a little uncomfortable.

With his chest showing, Yuji showed several scars spread across his body, results of injuries that even his regeneration was unable to handle. Most were small, due to the boy becoming very cautious after his fight against the Elite Kure, but still, there were times when his caution was not enough to escape attacks, which yielded some memories etched into his skin.

Wearing a pair of shorts that had the logo of the company he was representing, this was his outfit for the fight. He didn't have a strategic reason to dress this way, since it was for the simple fact that he felt more comfortable this way.

"Please come back well." Approaching the boy, Elena held his hand as she spoke with a concerned face, the boy seeing this and just opening a smile as he nodded in agreement.

Elena clearly couldn't get what had happened to Mokichi out of her head, and it showed in her expression as Yuji was about to enter the arena. This made Yuji's anger at Raian grow even greater, but he didn't let it show on his face as he reassured the girl.

Suddenly, the boy felt small hands hold his arm, the boy raising an eyebrow as he turned his attention downward to see Kou staring at him with eyes full of concern .

"Kou doesn't want Yuji to get hurt." The little girl spoke with a hesitant tone, this making Yuji's smile twitch for a moment, before he lovingly stroked the top of the girl's head.

"Don't worry, Kou." He spoke with a reassuring tone. "I'll be fine, so cheer me on without worry."

[Standing 1.85 meters tall, weighing 85 kilograms, he has a record of 1 win and 1 loss in Kengan matches! At only 17 years old, he has already beaten big names in the fighting world! To be called a prodigy is too little for him!]

Turning toward the arena, the boy took one last look at the girls, he noticing Karura's absence but not thinking much about it as he started walking toward the arena.

"Old man, I recommend betting on me." Yuji spoke, referring to Hatsumi, who frowned at being called old man. "Because I'm going to win this fight."

With a serious look on his face, he entered the arena. As much as he would like to enjoy the fight, he didn't want to make any of the girls worry too much. Seeing Kou with that look made him feel bad, so this fight, he would not prolong it.

He would show them that they didn't have to worry about him.

[With mastery of combat both standing and on the ground, he is out of the curve even among those who are already out of the curve! The promising young man of Kengan matches, the youngest Metsudo Fang candidate in history!]

"Wait, what?!"

"Hey, hey, is that true?!"

"She's just making a joke!"

The moment Yuji entered the arena, he had a serious expression on the outside, but in his mind, he was cursing old Katahara for it. As much as this was information that would soon come to light, revealing it during his fight was not something he wanted, after all, it only made people like Kuroki Gensai more cautious.

'All right, I can work with that.' He thought as he made his way to the middle of the arena.

[From Yoshitake Real State, God's Anomaly, Yuji Shinakawa.]

"Ah, damn, I was late." In the hallway where the girls were standing, their attention suddenly turned to an old, tired-looking man who seemed to have rushed to the scene. "He's already entered the arena."

The man was breathing heavily, Hatsumi soon recognizing him.

"Ah, Yamashita, what are you doing here?" The fighter asked curiously. He hadn't expected the man's presence in that place, at least not when it wasn't Ohma who would be fighting.

"Oh, I just came to say good luck to Yuji, but I ended up being late." Kazuo said as he looked up, this piquing Hatsumi's curiosity.

"Oh, you know the boy?" The fighter asked with his eyebrow raised in curiosity.

"W-Well, yes. He's my nephew." Yamashita scratched the back of his neck as he said it, a nervous smile on his lips.

Hatsumi, hearing this, froze for a moment, his head turning to face Yuji's back in the arena, only for seconds later to turn his attention back to the old man.

"Wait... Are you related to that boy?" Hatsumi asked almost urgently, but her calm tone was able to hide it. " Type , blood relative? Do you share the same blood?"

"Y-Yes? Is there a problem with that?" Yamashita asked with confusion.

'That old Nogi is going to be shocked when he hears about this.' Hatsumi thought as he scratched his chin.

"..."

"Mister Yamashita, how are you?!" Suddenly, a female voice caught Yamashita's attention, the old man turning to see the girls he knew as Yuji's friends waving at him.

"A-Ah, hi." He waved back with a friendly smile. His nephew had introduced him to her before. "Wait, where's that other girl?"

He asked when he noticed that Karura was missing. The girl was easy to remember not only for her peculiar eyes, but also for the fact that she suddenly asked for Kazuo's blessing when she learned that he was Yuji's uncle.

"I don't know, but I hope it's a long way from here." Senju spoke dismissively, this not going unnoticed by the old man.

'Did something happen?' he thought as he looked at the clearly annoyed girl.

Back in the arena, Yuji and Rei stared at each other with serious expressions, the tension between them clear to any fighter watching the fight.

"These guys..." Himuro spoke with wide eyes, sweat gathering on his forehead as he had his full attention on the two fighters. "Neither of them emanates their presence... It's as if they don't even exist."

This caught Kaneda's attention, who turned to his friend with a confused look, before he put more attention on the fighters in the arena.

'Ah, yes... It's like Himuro said.' Kaneda thought, sweat beading down his forehead. 'It's as if two legendary assassins are trying to kill each other in the darkness of the night. Both are hiding their presences... It's scary.'

"In position!" The fight referee announced, a beautiful woman named Anna Paula who was the only female figure who held such a position in Kengan matches.

Rei upon hearing the woman, immediately adhered to the classic stance of the Raishin style, Yuji seeing this but not caring to set up his own stance. This made Mikazuchi frown, the man believing that the boy in front of him was belittling him with this lack of interest.

"I'm sorry, but I can't lose." Rei suddenly spoke, Yuji looking at him with interest. "You will lose for our love."

The boy rolled his eyes at this. To him, Rei was just a bee affected by the queen's pheromones , a very strong bee, but still a simple bee.

And in that place, he would show what happens when a bee faces a wasp.

.

Walking down the halls, Karura had a cheerful expression as she bounced around, a blush on her cheeks as she was lost in thought.

'Hehe... Grandpa said he would approve my marriage to Yuji if he is able to win the tournament. That will be easy!' The girl thought, a smile appearing on her lips as she turned at the end of the hall.

"!"

Without her realizing it, she suddenly hit something, the girl taking a few steps back to look at the person responsible for appearing in her path.

"Watch where you're going, girl." The figure spoke, the girl turning her attention to her face, only to see a man with black eyes and seaweed-like hair.

"..."

The two stared at each other for a few seconds, before Karura stewed her cheeks and went on her way.

"Yuji is much better." She spoke as she walked away, leaving the figure behind with a confused look.

"What a strange girl." The figure spoke, he being none other than Ohma Tokita, the holder of the Niko style. "Now where is that Kazuo Yamashita?"
