Mikadzuki captured

Akira and Mikadzuki, the last of his kind, danced a lethal ballet of clashing steel. Akira found himself outpaced, the raw might of his opponent forcing him back, his every effort to retaliate met with relentless resistance. His sword and scythe, once deadly conduits of venom, seemed impotent against this titan. The Mikadzuki's fists, imbued with a sorcery that rendered them impervious to the poison, were like ramparts of iron. Even when the poison managed to eat through his skin, the man's fortitude only seemed to amplify, deflecting Akira's attacks with mere punches.

Akira roared, rallying his strength for a two-pronged assault with his scythe and sword. Yet, his valiant attempt was met with a swift and ruthless reprisal. His weapons were knocked from his grasp, leaving him to defend with his bare fists. When their hands collided, the man paused, seemingly taken aback by the unexpected force behind Akira's punch. With a swift and brutal kick, he sent Akira sprawling, the space between them closing in the blink of an eye as he propelled himself airborne in pursuit.

Akira halted his backward trajectory with a stomp, the force of his action sending a shockwave rippling through the air, littering the ground with debris. Onlookers, the fallen warriors previously defeated by Mikadzuki, watched in awe as the two titans clashed, the very earth trembling beneath their feet.

Green Flower Squad's warriors were mere spectators in this event, blown away by the sheer force of the shockwave. The outcome of the duel seemed increasingly apparent, Akira struggling under the onslaught, while Mikadzuki seemed to revel in the one-sidedness of their fight. Akira defended with his arms, responding with a swift kick after Mikadzuki's punch found its mark.

Akira lunged forward, his blow aimed at Mikadzuki, but the man sidestepped with a fluid grace. He retaliated with a devastating roundhouse kick, the force of it crushing Akira's throat and sending him sprawling. The wall against which Akira crashed became his prison, Mikadzuki's hand around his throat a death sentence.

"Your end is nigh," The Mikadzuki hissed, his fist clenched and ready to deliver the fatal blow. He released his chokehold, launching Akira into the wall, his fists raining down on him with brutal precision. Blood spilled from Akira, his skull fracturing under the onslaught, the dungeon trembling with the seismic strength of Mikadzuki's punches.

Kitsune and Selena, having dealt with their own battles, now raced towards the scene, prepared to face the final adversary. As Akira's consciousness waned under the relentless barrage, he clung to life even as the pain threatened to overwhelm him. His hearing distorted, a dissonant ringing echoing in his ears as he teetered on the brink of oblivion.

"(Damn it all, even healing my injuries I can still lose myself and dropdown. If I faint, there's no telling what hell he's up to. It sucks... I'm immortal but I can be knocked down. I can't... lose...)"

"(That's why... I'll thrive for the strongest!)" The words from Akira's heart revealed why he strived to be the strongest.

Then suddenly...

Something strange happened...

Akira's eyes ignited with a crimson glow, sending a startling wave of energy through the dungeon. The consciousness of everyone present wavered, the air itself seeming to shift and the fire from Selena and Kitsune's tree extinguishing abruptly. A resonant, pulsating sound filled the space, deafening in its intensity. It felt as if it echoed directly within their skulls, bypassing their ears entirely. They shivered uncontrollably, goosebumps prickling their skin in response to the chilling sensation. Kitsune and Selena halted their rush towards Akira, caught within this disconcerting phenomenon.

It felt as though a primal beast had roared its challenge, the sensation instilling a profound sense of dread.

"His aura... It's the Presence of God..." Kitsune murmured.

Kazoru, Volts, Clara, and the remaining warriors, including the vice-captains, could only shudder, rivulets of sweat trickling down their anxious faces. The man, captivated by the menacing glare of Akira's crimson gaze, backed away in a frantic scramble, terror seizing him.

"Wha... What was that?" The man gasped, sinking to his knees, his gaze fixed on the ground, too petrified to meet Akira's eyes.

"He... He's one of them," Kitsune finally uttered, her voice barely a whisper, her realization sending a shock through her system.

Every warrior present felt a weakening in their magic, their strength sapped by the overwhelming presence of Akira. The man was no exception. He swallowed hard, his legs shaking as he struggled to regain his footing amidst the terror-inducing atmosphere.

"Hey, jerk!" Shouted Akira.

While the man was kneeling down, he punched him very hard in the face, blasting him away with his punch and knocking him out cold.

Akira healed his face right after being punched. Akira saw them were spooked and startled.

"What's wrong, guys?" Akira was confused by their expressions as they were staring at Akira.

"You didn't feel it?" Said Kazoru, flabbergasted and terrified after what just happened.

"Feel what?" Akira tilted his head because he didn't know what he was talking about.

The man was unconscious and was tied up by the root of Selena's plants. "Great job, everyone!" Selena commended the whole squad after defeating the last Mikadzuki member.

But it didn't end here...

"BAHAHAHAH, YOU FOOLS! BIG MISTAKE FOR LETTING ME LIVE!" The man that was defeated by Kitsune and Selena, woke up and regained consciousness.

He powered up a large amount of his mana as his body glowed brightly.

"DO IT NOW, KAMARU!" The man shouted at someone named Kamaru.

Kamaru spat his webs and it was him hiding in the darkness. Kitsune's flames erased all of his webs, however, the man was already about to explode. Selena's roots were about to reach him, but she was too far. Kitsune launched forward as she took her Kitsune form.

"BYE... BYE... WARRIO-" The man suddenly stopped generating his energy to self-destruct.

"Ack!"

The man was injured from behind and was paralyzed. It turned out to be Hiroshi the one who sliced him from the back. He knelt and coughed up blood. Hiroshi slowly walked past him and pushed his glasses up.

"Don't worry, I inflicted a poison that immobilized your movement and so is your magic. You won't be doing any magic for the next 3 hours. And so you know, you'll feel excruciating pain after this." Hiroshi smiled as he looked behind him at the poor man who was helplessly grumbling in pain.

Finally, Kitsune finally caught him and tied him up with her flames. Hiroshi snuck behind him after he noticed he had finally woken up after being unconscious for some time.

As for Kamaru, Selena delivered her plant roots and tied him up while also shutting his throat because of his webs.

The victory was for Akira and his allies as they won their battle against the Mikadzuki. They headed back towards the exit after finishing their fights.

Before exiting the dungeon, they arrested the whole group of people that they beat. As for the last member they fought, they had special plans for them considering they were ranked high S-tiers. Or should be called the upper class of their organization because their power alone could match a commander and even vice-captains.

They brought them to the interrogation room with cuffs on their hands and disabled their magic. They also disabled parts of the explosive device if they were attached to them, so they wouldn't explode if they answered their questions.
