Ryuko: ["Fine by me!"] Ryuko growls, landing on the arena ["I will take you all on!!"]
Y/N: ["You're truly not the brightest tool in the shed, are you?"]
Ryuko: ["Come again?!"] Ryuko snaps, glaring at Y/N.
Inumuta: ["We each want to defeat your Kamui and Upgraded Uniform with our own power"] The blue-haired boy chirps up.
Satsuki: ["The battle order has already been decided"] The black-haired woman said, causing everyone to glance at her in shock and confusion ["Haven't you noticed that the pillars you stand on are of different heights? The more students you have defeated, the higher your pillar. Gamagōri defeated the fewest, so he's going first. Then Inumuta will fight, followed by Jakuzure, and then Sanageyama"]
Sanageyama: ["Damn, I beat too much of the cannon fodder?"] The green-haired man groaned, showing obvious annoyance.
Inumuta: ["That efficient fighting style of mine proved effective, I suppose"] Inumuta said, gently pushing his glasses up.
Nonon: ["Well, well!"] Smug as always, Nonon chuckles ["The one who suggested this is at the top of the lineup, huh? It's sweet that you're so considerate of your fellow students, Gama"]
Gamagōri: ["All I did was defend myself when attacked"] He replies, keeping his arms crossed ["Still, I suppose this means that you three won't get a chance at them!"]
Y/N and Ryuko glanced at each other. Sharing a nod, they both readied themselves. Y/N crouches, extending one of his legs forward and gently touching the ground. Ryuko grasps her Scissor-Blade, having it aiming forward while she glares at Gamagōri. Then, a second of silence go by. Then two. Then three. Then four. Then five.
Y/N: ["What's with the holdup?!"] Y/N groans, standing up ["Send in the beat already!"]
Gamagōri: ["What are you in such a hurry for?! The battle begins at 1 P.M!"]
Ryuko / Y/N: ["Eh?"]
Ryuko: ["What is the difference in time?! Let's get this over with already!"] Ryuko groans, aiming her blade at Gamagōri.
NO! WE WILL ABIDE BY THE SCHEDULE!
THAT IS WHAT DISCIPLINE IS ABOUT!!
THAT IS WHAT THE RULES ARE ABOUT!!!

["The Honnōji Academy King of the Hill Final Battle will be held starting 1 P.M today"] Speakers scattered throughout all of the No-Star Territory announced ["It will be a bloody clash between Honnōji Academy Student Council Elite Four and Matoi Ryuko from Class 2-A, along with Y/N L/N Captain of Honnōji's Academy Breakdancing Club. Special live coverage will be brought to you by Honnōji Television! Grandmas, grandpas, fathers and mothers, and good little boys and girls, let's sit back and enjoy the show!"] As the speakers announced the news, the entire No-Star Territory exploded with cheers.
.
Barazō: ["What?!"] Sticking his head out of the window, the man went wide-eyed ["Ryuko and Y/N will fight them?! We can't just sit here!"] Suddenly, he turns around, glaring at his son ["Matarō, go will steal us a TV set from somewhere!"]
Matarō: ["Heh, no problem!"] Smugly smirking, the boy turns around, lifting a small red-colored TV ["I already got us one for the occasion!"]
Barazō: ["Attaboy, Matarō!"] The boy reaches forward while his father crawls in front of the TV. Sukuyu comes from behind as Matarō turns on the TV. Or tried ["It's not showing anything. You tried hitting it?"] Barazō and Matarō got close to the TV, taking its top off ["And the poke around inside. What's in here?"] Both of them crouched near the TV with Barazō angrily glaring at Matarō ["Correct! Nothing!"]
Barazō: ["There aren't any parts inside!"] He exclaims, walking outside ["Fine! Let's go to the electronics store!"]
Sukuyu: ["Ay ay, sir!"] Sukuyu said, jogging outside with Guts following her.
Matarō: ["I'm coming too!"] Matarō shakily stood up with the TV still on his head, struggling to walk and even turn around ["No more TV stealing for me!!"]
◁━━◈━━▷
Mako: ["Here, have some tea, Ryuko"] Mako offers, turning to smile at Ryuko. Currently, they sat on top of the giant chains from before ["Eating Mom's boxed lunches gives you one million of horsepower! The two of you will win for sure!"]
Mikisugi: ["Ehh, what a pickle this is"] The blue-haired man approached, causing Ryuko to glare at him.
Y/N: ["Hey, teach"] Y/N, who sat between the two girls with his legs crossed, greets ["Hope you're here to cheer for us"]
Mikisugi: ["Yeah, of course..."] Reaching back, the man gently taps Mako on the head, sticking a needle on her forehead ["I'm your homeroom teacher, more or less"]
Ryuko: ["Huh?!"] Ryuko stood up while Y/N calmly sipped his energy drink ["What did you do to Mako?!"]
Mikisugi: ["I triggered a pressure point"] He calmly explains, looking totally nonchalantly about it ["She'll just be out for a little bit, so don't worry"]
Y/N: ["Well, then. You came here to drink tea and play shogi and drink tea or what?"] Y/N yawns, falling back-first against the chains.
Mikisugi: ["Drop out from the fight against the Elite Four"]
Y/N: ["Pff, yeah right"] Y/N replies, smirking with his eyes closed while Ryuko's glare intensifies.
Mikisugi: ["They're completely different from the Club Presidents you've faced"] Mikisugi starts, causing Y/N's smirk to widen ["If you're crazy enough to face four of them in a row, I don't know what would happen to you, Matoi and Senketsu"]
Y/N: ["Not to be rude or anything, but..."] Y/N sat up, glaring at Mikisugi with a smirk ["Where don't you take that lecture of yours and shove it up your-"]
Ryuko: ["Or are you finally going to tell us everything?"] Ryuko narrows her eyes ["Like why was my father killed"]
Mikisugi: ["I-... Can't do that"]
Ryuko: ["Then sit down, shut up, and watch"] Flicking her small pouch up, Ryuko takes her small Scissor-Blade, pointing at Mikisugi ["Senketsu, Y/N and I will beat Satsuki Kiryuin and then we'll wrinkle the truth out of her"] Y/N stood behind Ryuko, menacingly towering over the girl and glaring at Mikisugi ["With our own hands!"]
Y/N: ["Not to be rude or anything again, but..."] Y/N clicks his tongue, tilting his head to point at Mako ["Can you bring her back? I don't mean to offend, but I'd rather talk to her, or a wall, than talk to you"] Mikisugi sighs, taking the needle from Mako's head.
Mako: ["I'll be cheering for them all day!"] Mako happily continues as if nothing had happened ["Cause they're my friends!"]
Mikisugi: ["Yeah, of course. Don't push yourself too much, ok?"] With his middle-aged man act, Mikisugi starts to walk away ["I'd rather not end up on the Student Council's bad side because you both"]
Mako: ["Is something the matter?"] She asks, approaching Ryuko, who ate with anger.
Ryuko: ["Nope!"] She instantly replies, looking at Mako ["Your mom's lunches are delicious"] She said, causing Mako to smile in happiness ["Seriously, they're great"]
◁━━◈━━▷
As the hours go on, with Y/N chugging at least 10 Energy drinks cans an hour, abusing the fact that he can't die due to a heart attack, the time for the fight finally came. Y/N and Ryuko stood side-to-side, glaring at the Elite Four, who glared right back at them. On top of them all, Satsuki hits the tip of Bakuzan against the floor, keeping both hands on top of the hilt.
Satsuki: ["Begin!!"]
On cue to Satsuki's words, the entire stadium roared with excitement. Y/N hummed with his smirk present, watching in curiosity as crimson-colored steps appeared from the arena. The staircase connected with the towers of both Y/N and Ryuko to the arena, to Gamagōri's. Ryuko glanced at Y/N, who smiles at her, gently booping her nose before he walks forward, keeping both hands inside his pockets.
With a sigh, Ryuko goes back to her face of determination, stepping down along with Y/N. Gamagōri also wastes no time in walking down the steps, and as both competitors walked down, they kept glaring at each other. Y/N hums in thought, calmly flipping his hair over his shoulder like he usually does.
Y/N: ["Like mine, his Goku Uniform has a double transformation"] Y/N ponders, tapping his chin ["Plus, all that absorb and then release damage stuff. He's a tough one, no doubt"]
Ryuko: ["Yeah... Senketsu"] Ryuko calls, glancing down ["Are you listening"]
Senketsu: ["Oh, yeah"]
Y/N: ["Something botherin' ya?"] Y/N asks ["This guy won't go down without putting up a fight. A good one. Keep your minds on the battle"]
Senketsu: ["I will"]
Ryuko: ["Very well, then..."] Ryuko raises her gauntlet, pulling the pin along with Y/N who snaps the lollipop's handle ["Let's do this!!"]
Gamagōri: ["Consider this your final transformation, Matoi, L/N!!"]

[𝐓𝐡𝐫𝐞𝐞 𝐒𝐭𝐚𝐫 𝐆𝐨𝐤𝐮 𝐔𝐧𝐢𝐟𝐨𝐫𝐦]
->[𝐒𝐡𝐚𝐜𝐤𝐥𝐞 𝐑𝐞𝐠𝐚𝐥𝐢𝐚]<-
Ryuko calmly raises her left fist, prompting Y/N to bump it with his right without them glancing at each other. As Gamagōri exhales smoke through his gag, Y/N's foot and Ryuko's heels rapidly approach. With a calm and sassy smirk and clenching her teeth and narrowing her eyes in anger, both of them approached Gamagōri, glaring up at him. And then, silence. After that, silence. And finally, silence.
...
Gamagōri: ["Hey"] He calls, prompting Ryuko and Y/N to hum ["Do you want to fight or not?"]
Y/N: ["Isn't that, like, what we're here to do?"] Y/N asks, showing a sharp smirk.
Gamagōri: ["Then why aren't you both attacking me?!"]
Ryuko: ["I'll throw what my dear friend over here"] Ryuko said, gaining a smug smirk ["You really aren't the brightest tool in the shed, are ya~?"]
Gamagōri: ["Come again...?"]
Y/N: ["We know that your Goku Uniform absorbs the power of any attacks against you and turns it back to the attacker!"] Y/N said with a shrug, keeping his eyes closed ["Knowing that, why would we attack you?"]
Gamagōri: ["So you really aren't the brightest tool in the shed"]
Y/N: ["Come again?!"]
Gamagōri: ["Do you think I wouldn't anticipate something so obvious?"] Y/N glances at Ryuko, shrugging. Suddenly, the Scourge Regalia started whipping itself. Soon, Gamagōri grows in size ["Even if no one disciplines me, I discipline myself! I use my own techniques to punish myself!! I punish and punish and punish, bringing myself to a climax!!"] Gamagōri then kept growing and growing in size, to the point where Ryuko and Y/N looked like toddlers to him ["This is my secret technique! The-"]
->[自縄自爆 - 𝐉𝐢𝐣ō 𝐉𝐢𝐛𝐚𝐤𝐮]<-
[𝐒𝐞𝐜𝐫𝐞𝐭 𝐓𝐞𝐜𝐡𝐧𝐢𝐪𝐮𝐞: 𝐒𝐞𝐥𝐟 𝐅𝐥𝐚𝐠𝐞𝐥𝐥𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧]
Y/N: ["Ah, I see!"] Y/N growls in anger ["Here I go, making some cool-ass stuff! Using knowledge in Biology, human behavior and making use of my Goku Uniform to create a secret technique, and you just go and start hitting yourself and call it a day!"] Y/N groaned, crossing his arms and glaring to the side.
Gamagōri: ["Now,, let me show you!!"]
Gamagōri's eyes glowed in a menacing golden color. His uniform started to get even larger with a few strays whips coming from it. Not only that, but a strange red-colored glow also made its way to the vision of the crowd and Gamagōri's foes. As his whips unwrapped from his uniform, Gamagōri spun to the side, now on a new uniform. This time, a much more intimidating one.
->[死縛の装 - 𝐒𝐡𝐢𝐛𝐚𝐤𝐢 𝐧𝐨 𝐒ō]<-
[𝐓𝐡𝐫𝐞𝐞 𝐒𝐭𝐚𝐫 𝐆𝐨𝐤𝐮 𝐔𝐧𝐢𝐟𝐨𝐫𝐦]
->[𝐒𝐜𝐨𝐮𝐫𝐠𝐞 𝐑𝐞𝐠𝐚𝐥𝐢𝐚]<-
Reeling his right arm and throwing it up, Gamagōri sent countless of his whips against Ryuko and Y/N. The fox was able to dodge, backflipping away and maneuvering his way through the attacks. With eyes closed and her arms crossed, Nonon sidesteps one of the many whips that went throughout the entire courtyard. Ryuko however, wasn't as agile and was hit in the back, followed by another whip against her ass.
The same as Nonon, Sanageyama manages to avoid the strike from his companion. Once more, Ryuko wasn't as successful. She crashes on the ground, rolling away from Gamagōri and falling down. Y/N jumps away, swiftly flipping through Gamagōri's whips and landing at Ryuko's side.
Gamagōri: ["What are you waiting for?!"] Gamagōri sent yet another whip, one that Y/N manages to avoid. However, as it passes him, it hits Ryuko's "rear" ["If you fall out of the battle arena, you lose right then and here!"]
Y/N: ["No one said that was a rule!"] Y/N spat back, jumping over one of the whips.
Gamagōri: ["That is why I'm telling you this now, are we clear?!"]
.
Sanageyama: ["Y/N had some insane luck here"] He thought, watching as Y/N kept avoiding the whips ["His fast movements and predictions allow him to dodge even that insane amount of attacks from all directions, but...-"]
Nonon: ["That being said, he can't keep dodging forever"] She thought, crossing her arms with a smirk ["Dodging like that wastes a lot of stamina, Stamina that he could use to attack. He was lucky to face Gama in the first round where he is at his full potential. If he went for last, he could've been in trouble"]
Inumuta: ["If this drags on for too long, he may face some difficulties"] He also thought, pushing his glasses up ["Not to mention that each second that goes by without him attacking and dodging, his chances of winning grows thinner"]
.
Ryuko: ["Crystal Clear!"] She said with a smirk, standing up ["Thank you ever so much!"]
As Ryuko stood up, however, Gamagōri's whip suddenly came back, hitting Ryuko just like before. First aiming for her back, then her legs, and finally, her ass, again. Poor girl. Y/N stood still, not noticing the whip that was about to hit him. However, much to everyone's shock, the strike seemingly went through him as if he was a projection. Gamagōri swiftly wraps himself again, going back to his Shackle Regalia form.
Ryuko: ["Well, in that case..."] Ryuko groans, standing up ["It's business as usual!!"] As Ryuko dashes forward, her Scissor-Blade enters its decapitation mode.
Y/N: ["Huh- Ryuko, hold up!!'] However, Y/N's words fell on deaf ears.
Ryuko roared, reeling her blade back before thrusting it to the side into a powerful slash.
[𝐅𝐢𝐧𝐢𝐬𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐌𝐨𝐯𝐞: 𝐅𝐢𝐛𝐞𝐫 𝐋𝐨𝐬𝐭]
["𝐒𝐭𝐫𝐢𝐩𝐩𝐞𝐝" 𝐎𝐟 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐖𝐢𝐥𝐥 𝐭𝐨 𝐅𝐢𝐠𝐡𝐭!]
... However, the attack had no effect. Gamagōri merely turns around, glaring at Ryuko from inside his suit. Seeing as the man resisted her finishing move, Ryuko turned around, jumping away from Gamagōri.
Senketsu: ["His uniform has no Life Fibers on the outside"] Senketsu said, glaring up at Ryuko ["There's nothing for me to absorb"]
Y/N: ["So, this guy's tougher than he looks"] In his thoughts, Y/N groans.
Gamagōri: ["Surprised? My Shacke Regalia's surface is cloth armor, reinforced by means of special powers"] Inside his uniform, Gamagōri glares at Ryuko, prompting Y/N to smirk ["To absorb it's Life Fibers, you'll have to pierce through the cloth armor and thrust your blade into the uniform properly!"]
Ryuko: ["Then I'll have to cut it down to the inside!!"] Ryuko roared, dashing forward.
Ryuko shouts, zooming in on Gamagōri, who showed no intention of dodging or even reacting to the attack. Y/N slowly lowers himself to the ground. However, this time, he slumps his upper body forward, placing both hands on the floor and. Along with it, he sticks up his lower body, smirking. Ryuko zoomed in on Gamagōri, however, much to her shock, the Scissor-Blade bounced off Shackle Regalia.
Gamagōri: ["Is that wise?"] Gamagōri glares down at Ryuko, narrowing his eyes ["If you attack me, I become much stronger!"] And in a blink... ["Scourge Regalia!!"] Back into its main form, Gamagōri sent yet another storm of whips against Ryuko.
Satsuki narrowed her eyes, watching Y/N's new posture and the brightest possible smirk on his face.
◁━━◈━━▷
Where are the most well-trained "muscles" in Y/N's body? The answer is: The legs.
Your average Sumo wrestler in the Maku'uchi division weighs 150 KG. And yet their average time in the 100-Yard Dash is under 13 Seconds. Powerful leg muscles are necessary to support their super-heavy body. Y/N's legs, however, are not only twice as trained, but twice as strong.
Y/N had trained this position ever since he joined the Yakuza under Majima Goro over 10 Years ago. Although it looked like a normal crouching start, it was obvious to see he had something planned. A technique in which Y/N concentrates all of his strength purely on his legs. A technique meant to purely propel himself forward.
Y/N's maximum velocity in the first stage of his uniform is something easily on par with professional competitors. Y/N's legs were not only created, but also trained, to be the toughest ones possible. And from this position, transitioning every single drop of his strength to the legs, Y/N could, in 0.5 Seconds, shoot from a speed of 0 to...
◁━━◈━━▷
Barazō: ["Look out!"] Between a small crowd, the Mankanshoku family watched Y/N's and Ryuko's fight on a TV in the No-Star Territory ["This is bad!"]
Matarō: ["That's the Elite Four for you!"] He chirps up, holding his head in panic ["He has Ryuko on the ropes!"] He said, watching as Ryuko continues to be hit.
Sukuyu: ["Don't you worry. She made the lunch I've made for her"] Sukuyu said, smiling at her son before looking to the TV again ["She can't possibly lose!"]
◁━━◈━━▷
Gamagōri: ["Impressive. That Kamui is far more potent than any other Goku Uniform"] Ryuko horizontally held up her blade, shielding herself as much as possible from Gamagōri's attack ["It gives me the power I need to wield my Scourge Regalia ever longer. Your own power, Matoi!!"] Gamagōri roared, thrusting his puffed-up chest forward, sending even more of his whips against Ryuko, which kept bouncing her back and forth with hits.
Nonon: ["Oh, dear. What's wrong with the transfer student?"] Nonon giggled, juggling back and forth, avoid Gamagōri's whips ["She's more of a pushover than I was expecting!"]
Inumuta: ["The Chairman of the Disciplinary Bureau is more wrinkled than usual"] He chirps up, tilting his head to the side, dodging a hit from a whip ["Because to this, this is a fight in the presence of his empress"]
Nonon: ["I'm not sure who I should be rooting for"] Nonon giggled, stepping to the side ["In one side, we have a member of the Elite Four, but on the other one, there's the strongest student in the school, which so happens to work under me!"] Glancing at Y/N, Nonon saw his tails pointing back, forming almost like a ramp. However, the most impressive thing is that Gamagōri's whips seemed to be going through him ["But I do wonder what's going on? Is Gama missing his attacks?"]
Sanageyama: ["No, that's not it"] The man replies, dodging the whips with no trouble ["His shifting his knees to evade the attack with as little movement as possible. This means his axis doesn't move, making it look like he's not moving at all"] Sanageyama, keeping his arms crossed while still watching the fight ["I'd say he's dodging them by barely a single centimeter. For sure work of that secret technique of his. And those tails pointed back. They're meant to cut the wind, avoiding resistance, giving him more speed. He's going for a charge"]
Nonon: ["Now that's my student, for ya~!"] Nonon chuckled, crossing her arms ["No wonder he's so impressive"]
.
Satsuki: ["Matoi, L/N"] Satsuki mutters to herself, narrowing her eyes ["This man's resolve is nothing to scoff at..."]
◁━━◈━━▷
Five years ago in the same school Gamagōri met Satsuki and the red-haired Alexandria, the large man in question stood in front of Satsuki. The black-haired girl stood near Alexandria, who kept his arms crossed as usual, and as always, had his face hidden by the red-colored glasses and scarf.
Satsuki: ["To think that such an earnest former council president would skip his own graduation ceremony..."] Satsuki spoke, looking up at Gamagōri, who looked ready to fight.
Gamagōri: ["If you intend to rule this school with force, then I will stop you both at all costs!"] Both Satsuki and Alexandria seemed unfazed by that ["That is the final task I must carry out at this school!"] And without another word, Gamagōri charged forward, prompting Satsuki to do the same.
As the two of them crossed paths, a giant cut spread through Gamagōri's uniform, revealing his steel-plated chest. Satsuki hummed but showed no other emotion besides indifference. And then, she turned around, delivering yet more two slashes to Gamagōri, who only revealed even more armor underneath his body.
Satsuki: ["Steel armor through your entire body, eh?"] Mildly surprised, Satsuki chirps up.
Gamagōri: ["Courtesy of my relatives, who run an ironworks"] He replies, soon glaring even harder at both of them ["Your attacks will never reach me!"]
Satsuki: ["Be as it may, you cannot defeat the two of us"] Satsuki comments, glancing up, noticing the red-haired boy on top of a tree.
Gamagōri: ["I never thought I could"] He replied, still a few meters away from the two of them ["My own strength is not nearly enough"]
Satsuki: ["If you know that, then why do you oppose me?"]
Gamagōri: ["I can't defeat you, but I won't lose to you either!"] He said, showing a smirk ["You can't make me kneel before you"] Gamagōri shook his head from side to side, showing his palms to Satsuki ["If you intend to use force to conquer this school, I'll take all of it on myself!"] Clenching his fists, Gamagōri continues ["I'll show you that there are others who will never yield to force. That is my resolve!!"]
Satsuki: ["Easily said, somewhat more difficult to do"] Satsuki replied, glaring up at Gamagōri. Glancing up, she saw Alexandria, nodding at her ["If your words are hollow, expect no mercy!"] And without another word, Satsuki steps forward.
Still with Bakuzan sheathed, she delivers a powerful attack that cuts even more of Gamagōri's uniform. Using both arms, the man blocks the incoming hits, but Satsuki kept pushing him back despite their massive difference in height. Satsuki, however, didn't let it stop there, and kept attacking nonstop. Gamagōri grits his teeth, still blocking the attacks.
Although he kept pressing forward, Satsuki kept pushing him back without any difficulties. Satsuki then reels her blade back, seeing as Gamagōri, although sweating and tired, kept resisting. With a warcry, she thrusts its tip forward against Gamagōri's gut, causing him to exhale in pain, and with a small push, the armor starts to crack.
Soon after, the entire armor cracked, causing Gamagōri's knees to start to give out. Using both hands, he grabbed Bakuzan, panting with his eyes narrowed in pure determination.
Gamagōri: ["I will never kneel to you... Never!!"] Satsuki glares at him over his shoulder while Alexandria's hair is gently blown by the breeze ["I'll never kneel before you!!!"]
Gamagōri then removes Bakuzan's sheathe, still holding it. And soon, he fell. Turning around a bit, Satsuki showed Gamagōri, even passed out, had his knees far from the ground, using the sword's sheath to hold himself up. Satsuki then shows a smirk of satisfaction.
.
Not long after, Gamagōri laid down near a small hill in which Satsuki and Alexandria stood on top. And then, glancing at the red-haired boy, Satsuki nods. Nodding back, Alexandria removes one of his pistols from their holsters, hitting its stock against Gamagōri's nape, which causes him to shoot up, panting.
Gamagōri: ["Did I... Did I lose...?"] Gamagōri leans back, laying his upper back on the hill.
Satsuki: ["Gamagōri, I have seen the full measure of your resolve"] Satsuki said, taking Bakuzan's sheathe from Gamagōri's chest ["Come with me and become my shield"]
Gamagōri: ["... What are you planning?"]
Satsuki, instead of replying, smirked. Alexandria, who went back to crossing his arms, as usual, glances up at the skies. Seeing the sakura trees gently shaking with the breeze.
Satsuki: ["Pigs are in human clothing"] Satsuki then turns around, facing away from Gamagōri ["I will fight against everything this world stands for and completely remake it. As the first stage of my plan, I will create a new high school in two year's time. A high school that will be my army. Join me there, and you will be able to attain new strength!"]
Gamagōri: ["... Very well, I will wait two years"] After a few seconds of silence, Gamagōri reaches forward, prompting Satsuki to smirk and do the same thing. And soon their hands connected ["... Huh?"]
Gamagōri glances to the side, noticing Alexandria standing on his shoulder. Crouching, the red-haired boy then extends his fist forward, prompting Gamagōri to connect them. But soon, using his other hand, Alexandria gently pokes Gamagōri's hand open, and in his palm, he drops a pair of earrings. Glancing at the objects in his hands before looking at Alexandria, Gamagōri then smiles in gratitude for the gift from his friend.
◁━━◈━━▷
Gamagōri: ["I told you already, I'm Lady Satsuki's impenetrable shield!"] Ryuko took a few steps back, parrying away the hits from Gamagōri ["I will crush you here and now!"]
Ryuko: ["Like hell you will!"] Ryuko groaned, using her blade to cut the whips ["I'm not going to lose to you here and now! Tsc! Goddamnit, Y/N! Whatever the hell you're doing, just do it faster!"]
Gamagōri: ["What are you even fighting for?! Vengeance for your father's murder?!"] Gamagōri roared, stepping forward ["You're petty! Petty! Petty! An attack driven by mere personal vendetta wouldn't even scratch a great being such as Lady Satsuki!"]
Ryuko: ["Care to repeat that?!"] Ryuko growls, putting up her guard ["Whatever the fuck you're planning, just do it already, L/N!!"] She growled in her thought, watching as Gamagōri still focused on her.
Gamagōri: ["And not only her! You won't be able to defeat me either!"]
Gamagōri roared, and with one last attack connected against Ryuko's cheek. He sent the girl flying from the arena. Mako yelped, covering her eyes and shutting them, watching as Ryuko was about to fall. However, before he could go down, the black-haired girl stuck her blade to the wall. Hanging there by Senketsu's suspensories.
Senketsu: ["Are you ok, Ryuko?"] Senketsu asked, causing Ryuko to growl.
Ryuko: ["Yeah, but I'm in rough shape"] She said, sighing ["But I can't drop out. Not now- huh?"] Ryuko looks to the side, watching one of the TV's.
Y/N: ["Hey! Mr. "Impenetrable Shield!"] Y/N called, narrowing his eyes [T/C]-colored fox-like eyes with a sharp smirk ["Don't you think you're forgetting about someone?!"]
Gamagōri: ["Don't get your hopes, L/N!"] Gamagōri spat, slowly turning around ["I know that, even on my blind-spot, you can't possibly scratch me-"]
On that moment, the moment Y/N's chest made contact with the ground, Y/N had disappeared from the arena.
.
Nonon: ["Ho, what's this~?"] She giggled, crossing her arms ["That's a neat disappearing trick"]
Sanageyama: ["No, that's not it"] He replies, also keeping his arms crossed ["He's moving. Very fast. Even I can't barely keep up with him"]
.
Gamagōri: ["Your tricks won't work on me, L/N!"] Gamagōri roared, throwing his arms to the side ["Now, come and get-"]
And at that moment, Y/N had appeared in the arena once again. Travelling a distance of just a few meters in the blink of an eye. Y/N had gone from 0 to 500 in 0.5 Seconds. The fastest man in the world, delivering the fastest dropkick in the world. Gamagōri's eyes widened and spat left his mouth. Roaring once again with a burst of [T/C]-colored flames, Y/N pushed his legs away, sending Gamagōri flying.
The impact sent, not only the man flying, but also a trail of [T/C]-colored flames behind. A trail of destruction. Debris that had risen due to the massive speed Gamagōri was travelling. Watching as he fell from the arena, Y/N fell to the floor, crouching on his usual stance with a smirk of satisfaction. He knew that, even after that massive damage, Gamagōri wouldn't absorb it since he was in his Scourge Regalia form.
Glancing to the side, Y/N saw Ryuko jumping back on the arena with some sweat running down her face. Chuckling, Y/N stretches his arms up, stretching his right leg to the side.
Y/N: ["Heya there cutie. Come here often~?"] Y/N joked, winking at Ryuko.
Ryuko: ["Only to see that ugly thing you call a face"] Ryuko jokingly spat back, causing Y/N to laugh.
Y/N: ["Hey now, I'll have you know I take pride on being this beautiful, okay?"] Y/N chuckles, standing up ["You got some insane luck there, Blackberry"]
Ryuko: ["You said it"] Ryuko sighs, stretching her suspensories up before letting go of them ["I don't think I'll get to do that again, though. Better be careful"]
At that moment, the two glanced to the side, seeing Gamagōri jumping back in the arena in his Scourge Regalia form. The man was panting, and his Goku Uniform showed very clear signs of cracking where Y/N had landed that hit. With a sharp smirk on his face, Y/N crouches once more.
Gamagōri: ["I have to give it to you, that was quite the hit"] Soon, he went back to his Shackle Regalia form ["But I won't give you the chance to do it again! I won't take my eyes off you ever again!"]
Y/N: ["Yeah, we'll see about that"] Y/N smirks, spreading his arms ["Ryuko~?"]
Ryuko: ["You got it!!"]
And soon, without missing a beat, the two of them zoomed forward. Jumping and spinning mid-air, Y/N connects his leg against Gamagōri's chest. Ryuko follows suit with a fury of nonstop thrusts and slashes with her Scissor-Blade.
◁━━◈━━▷
Matarō: ["No, don't do that!!"] In panic, he held his own head ["You can't just wail at him like that without a plan!"]
Barazō: ["He'll hit you with a counter-attack!"] He spat along with his son, wildly tapping on the TV.
Sukuyu: ["Is it out of desperation?"] She asked, clenching her fist ["This isn't like them..."]
◁━━◈━━▷
Ryuko and Y/N kept hitting Gamagōri without a single drop of hesitation. Their hits were so fast that they left afterimages behind. And every couple of hits, Gamagōri's Uniform grew bigger and bigger.
Mikisugi: ["That's no good"] The man said, watching the fight from one of the school's windows. Slowly, he raises a needle ["Have they finally lost all capacity of rational thought?"]
Gamagōri: ["Struggle all you want, neither of you have a chance of winning!"] The man growled, having his eye shining in a menacing gold behind his Goku Uniform ["Learn your place as a student and quietly accept my discipline! Scourge Regalia!"] As the whips started to come, Ryuko spun her blade around, starting to cut them.
Y/N: ["Things like that are one of the many reasons why the American school system is so fucked up!!"] Without a hint of hesitation, Y/N spat ["And don't think we'll ever lose to someone like you!"] Y/N growls ["You have duties and so do I! I can't stand fools like you, who think they're the strongest of them all!"] Y/N roared, dashing forward, zooming past the whips with no problems ["Be it blunt, blade, punch or bomb! It is my duty to face it no matter what!!"] Y/N spun around, thrusting his leg up and between Gamagōri's leg, causing the man to hop back due to the impact.
Gamagōri: ["It still hasn't gotten through that thick skull of yours?!"] Gamagōri clenches his fist, narrowing his eyes ["I am Disciplinary Bureau Chairman Ira Gamagōri! By shackling and whipping myself mercilessly, I tried to set an example for the students! "See my behavior and correct your own. Mend your ways of your own accord!" I wish to entrust Honnōji Academy's order to the independence of its students, and the Shackle Regalia is the very embodiment of that desire!"] Y/N jumped away, landing behind Ryuko, who kept spinning her weapon and shielding both of them. Y/N stood there, narrowing his eyes while Gamagōri's eyes shined in a menacing pure white color ["Those who still refuse to learn, I hold back my tears and give them a taste of the cleansing whip! That is the Scourge Regalia! If you refuse the whip of love, them you leave me no other choice!"]
LET ME SHOW YOU THE TRUE TERROR OF THE SHACKLE REGALIA!!!
Gamagōri: ["Matoi Ryuko, Y/N L/N! Your indepence is revoked!"] Gamagōri threw the three discs he held, prompting Y/N to hop over Ryuko and spin his body, kicking them back ["I'm going to shape you both into proper students!"] Soon, both Ryuko and Y/N kept parrying the whips and the discs ["Where did you get those ideas?! Modifying your uniforms into such slutty outfits! How utterly depraved! How utterly deviant!"]
Ryuko: ["How about that Lady Satsuki of yours?! She has no right to call herself "pure"!"] Ryuko spat back.
Gamagōri: ["She's an exception!"] Gamagōri spat back ["Her form is forged from her iron will and well-trained body!"]
Y/N: ["Don't give me this self-serving shit you brainless mount of masochism!"] Y/N spat, narrowing his eyes ["If I'm the slut, then those Eyebrows with human body are the entire cabaret!!"]
Y/N swiftly jumped away, avoiding a strike. Ryuko, however, wasn't as agile as he was, and with a hit, Gamagōri managed to hit her hand, sending her Scissor-Blade away. Y/N's eyes went a bit wide seeing as Ryuko was caught inside the three of Gamagōri's discs.
Gamagōri: ["Oh, did I manage to strike a nerve?"] He chuckled, opening his arms ["All right, Matoi Ryuko! It's time to mold you into shape!"] Soon, both of Gamagōri's gauntlets spun, revealing their inside which had the mold of a girl ["This model is the ideal, proper highschool girl. A proper spirit starts with a proper shape! Have a taste of this mold..."]
AND REFLECT ON YOUR WICKED WAYS!
Y/N: ["Tsc. Ryuko!"] Y/N growls, crouching once again ["If I get close he can still hit with the whips, and I'm near my limit using the Predator of Predators... Fuck, this is bad"]
Gamagōri: ["Struggle! Struggle! I won't give up!"] Gamagōri kept pressing each time harder and harder ["I won't rest until I've straightened you out! I will mold you, mold you into a proper student!"]
Senketsu: ["Do you want to win, Ryuko?"] The kamui asks, glancing up at its wearer.
Ryuko: ["You're asking such an obvious question now?!"] She spat back, glaring at Senketsu.
Senketsu: ["If you do, then I might have an idea"] Senketsu said, still looking up at her ["We just need to get close to Y/N"]
Ryuko: ["T - That thing you were talking about earlier?"] She asked, feeling it all becoming more and more difficult to breathe.
Senketsu: ["Yes. Will you let me handle this?"]
Ryuko: ["... Got it!"]
Ryuko soon starts to spin while she roars, creating a small tornado between Gamagōri's molds. Soon, due to the force that Ryuko created, Gamagōri's forced to open his arms, releasing the black-haired girl. In a burst of red-colored stars, the man's discs fell to the ground, tumbling away as Ryuko lands near Y/N with Senketsu deactivated.
Mikisugi: ["Ah, she used the power released when disengaging her transformation to break free from the shackles"] The man comments narrowing his eyes, watching as Ryuko kept panting ["But she doesn't have any hope of winning like that"]
Gamagōri: ["Oh, so my words have finally reached you?"] Ryuko staggers to the side, leaning on Y/N, who slings one of her arms over his neck ["I see that you have returned to a more proper appearance!"]
Ryuko: ["Who the fuck would listen to you, you damn pile of masochism!"] Ryuko spat back, glancing to the side ["Y/N, listen..."] Y/N leaned down and Ryuko whispers in his ear. A second later, he nods with a smirk.
Gamagōri: ["In that case, taste the ultimate whip of love!"]
Y/N: ["Ok, now that's just messed up!"] Y/N said, narrowing his eyes [... Heh!"] Y/N smirks, and without missing a beat, he dashes forward ["Just who the hell do you think I am?!"] Jumping over the gigantic whip, Y/N lands on top of it, quickly dashing against Gamagōri ["Never miss a beat!!"] Going into a handstand, Y/N connects a hit against Gamagōri already-cracked Goku. Reeling arm back, Gamagōri swats Y/N away, who smirks ["Now it's up to you, Blackberry..."] He thought.
As the attacks connected against Ryuko, Senketsu didn't miss a beat, and quickly bit into it. Ryuko followed suit, taking a few stray whips on her hand and biting another. Seeing this, Gamagōri went wide-eyed, and reeled his attack back. As she pulled Ryuko, the whips wrapped around her, locking the girl inside the Shackle Regalia, leaving only an outline of the black-haired girl.
Gamagōri: ["So you're applying the idea that even the hunter spares the bird that flies into his bosom?"] Inside the uniform, Ryuko pants and shivers in discomfort ["I must warn you, however, that I'm not that sentimental!"] Gamagōri tightens the grip on Ryuko, making her outline even more visible ["I'll choke the life from you here and now!"] Glancing to the side, he saw Y/N standing there, smirking ["Has your friend gone mad with despair? Seeing as you're not helpless, has he accepted the fate of you both? No matter! I shall deal with you first!"] Gamagōri's grip tightens by the second, making it all even more difficult for Ryuko ["Having trouble breathing? But without your Scissor-Blade, you have no way to fight back!"]
.
Nonon: ["Uh-oh~!"] She smugly remarks, giggling ["Is it over now?"]
Inumuta: ["A shame"] He chirps up, sighing ["I was hoping to gather more data on the Kamui"]
Sanageyama: ["No! What's this I'm sensing...?"] Sanageyama narrowed his now-ever-shut eyes ["Could it be...?"]
Satsuki: ["Gamagōri..."] Satsuki closes her eyes, lowering her head ["That was foolish"]
.
Ryuko: ["Life Fiber Synchronize!"] Using her mouth, Ryuko snaps the pin on her glove.
Y/N's smirk widened while he crossed his arms, closing his eyes. Suddenly, from all around Shackle Regalia, countless crimson-colored blades bursted from the inside out. Gamagōri yelps in pain, jumping from side-to-side in an useless effort of numbing the agonizing and ever-growing feeling. As he leans down, his back almost touches the ground. In which, yet another burst of red-colored start occurred.
From inside his body, even larger, bigger and thicker blades splurted. They were almost at Y/N's size, coming from beneath his Goku uniform, leaving through his chest area. With a loud warcry of determination, Ryuko snaps the cloth from Gamagōri's uniform.
Gamagōri: ["What the...?!"]
Ryuko: ["Senketsu...!"]
->[鮮血閃刃 - 𝐒𝐞𝐧𝐤𝐞𝐭𝐬𝐮 𝐒𝐞𝐧𝐣𝐢𝐧]<-
[𝐊𝐚𝐦𝐮𝐢 𝐒𝐞𝐧𝐤𝐞𝐭𝐬𝐮]
->[𝐒𝐞𝐧𝐤𝐞𝐭𝐬𝐮 𝐁𝐥𝐚𝐝𝐞 𝐅𝐥𝐚𝐬𝐡]<-
Y/N: ["Turning the Kamui into a blade, huh?"] Y/N chuckled, keeping his eyes closed and arms crossed. Reeling his leg up, he kicks the ground, sending the Scissor-Blade flying ["Truly, only you could pull something like that off, Blackberry"] Mid-air, the black-haired girl caught hre blade before dashing forward.
Ryuko: ["Y/N!"] She called, prompting Y/N to giggle.
Y/N: ["Aye, aye~!"] He replies, approaching Gamagōri ["Now it's my turn!"]
As Y/N neared the fallen Elite Four member, he reels his leg up before pushing it down against him. The impact was enough to bounce Gamagōri's face off the ground, lifting. Taking advantage of that, Y/N spun around, putting a hand behind him mid-spin and kicking his leg against Gamagōri's chin, which was strong enough to push the man back on his feet.
Performing a 1990 Spin, Y/N used his left leg to kick Gamagōri, prompting the large man to take a step to the side. Swiftly going back to a normal stance, Y/N spun once again, kicking Gamagōri in the back, sending him yet a bit far away. As Gamagōri was still moving, Y/N performed a butterfly kick, using it to land yet another strike against the man.
Gamagōri soon turned around after being pushed, throwing a punch against Y/N, who stepped to the side, kicking his thigh. As Gamagōri reeled his fist back, Y/N pushed his foot against the man's other hand, jumping so he could kick his arm right after. Using his other leg, Y/N lands a strike against Gamagōri's neck. As he started to fall, Y/N swiftly jumped and twisted mid-air, hitting his knee against Gamagōri's chin. Hopping up and revolving mid-air, Y/N lands a final strike against his opponent, who is sent flying away.
Y/N: ["Your turn now, Blackberry!"] Y/N smirks, keeping one of his legs raised ["Keep the beat going, girl!"]
Ryuko: ["You got it!"] Ryuko roared, dashing forward. A burst of pink-colored flames appeared from underneath her shoulder pads, launching the girl forward ["Your Life Fibers are totally exposed now! And with Y/N's kicks, your brain shook enough for me to take advantage of you being dazed!"] Ryuko roars, grabbing her blade with both hands.
[𝐅𝐢𝐧𝐢𝐬𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐌𝐨𝐯𝐞: 𝐅𝐢𝐛𝐞𝐫 𝐋𝐨𝐬𝐭]
["𝐒𝐭𝐫𝐢𝐩𝐩𝐞𝐝" 𝐎𝐟 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐖𝐢𝐥𝐥 𝐭𝐨 𝐅𝐢𝐠𝐡𝐭!]
Soon, Gamagōri's eyes went blank. His brain, shook by Y/N fury of kicks, couldn't process what happened to him. His eyes became white while Ryuko stops near Y/N, absorbing the Life Fibers from Gamagōri's Goku Uniform. The man in question fell back-first against the ground with so much impact that debris lifts from the cracked arena.
Nonon blinks in confusion, trying to grasp what the hell just happened. How did Gamagōri lose? How did Y/N and Ryuko manage to emerge victorious? Sanageyama clicks his tongue in annoyance, leaning forward. Inumuta's eyebrows twitched and sweat ran down his cheek. Just like his pink-haired companion, he saw what happened, yet, he couldn't believe it.
Satsuki: ["Become obsessed with Resolve, and even that will turn to arrogance"] Satsuki said, not showing many emotions besides that ["A shame"]
Y/N smirks and in a burst of [T/C]-colored fire, he went back to his usual form. In the bleachers and the No-Star territory, people cheered at the display. The scoreboard showed that Y/N and Ryuko were the winners of the first round.
Ryuko: ["Just like you planned, Senketsu~!"] Ryuko cheerfully said, tilting her head.
Senketsu: ["If Goku Uniforms can transform, it would be unthinkable to suggest I could not do the same"] Senketsu said, glancing up at Ryuko ["Although I'm not the only one who made this possible"]
Ryuko: ["That positive outlook of yours is what I love about you, Senketsu"] Ryuko said, gently tapping the Kamui's eye ["And you did not very bad yourself!"] Ryuko smiles, turning around to be met face-to-face with Y/N, who leans down ["You did a very good job too!"] She said, gently ruffling his hair.
Y/N: ["The hell am I now? A dog?"] Y/N chuckles, gently closing his eyes ["You did very good, too, Blackberry"] Y/N said with a giggle that turned into a mischievous smile.
Ryuko: ["I really don't like it when-eep!"] Ryuko yelps in confusion when Y/N wraps both arms around her, pulling the girl into a hug and gently lifting her ["O - Oi! Put me down this instant before I beat your ass!"]
.
Mikisugi: ["It learned to alter its configuration based on the battlefield conditions"] The man hums with interest, watching as Ryuko kept bonking Y/N on the head, but he kept hugging her ["I'm impressed with the two of you. Still, I guess I can't simply be happy about it"]
.
Gamagōri: ["... Disgraceful"] In the middle of the ring, kneeling down, tears stream down his face ["That was disgraceful, Ira Gamagōri!"]
With sobs, Gamagōri slowly unsheathes a small blade, reeling it up and holding it with both hands. With a loud roar, he reels his arm back, thrusting the blade against his chest. However, before it could connect, a red-colored piece of cloth wrapped around the small knife, stopping it dead on its tracks. Glancing up, Gamagōri went wide-eyed.
Gamagōri: ["L - L/N...?"]
Y/N: ["Hey now, that just ain't cool, man..."] Y/N chuckles, smiling at Gamagōri ["You lost once. So what? It's way too early to kneel in defeat"] Y/N smirked, standing up from his previously-crouching position, letting go off the cloth ["I see you still wear the earrings that we gave you. They really do look nice on you, friend"] Gamagōri once more went wide-eyed, stuttering in shock and confusion ["Satsuki still has her brain, her blade and her beat. But she is incomplete without her shield, old friend. Remember to always stand proud! By the way, you can keep the scarf if you want"]
Glancing up, Gamagōri saw the same figure he saw all those years ago. The figure that, one day, was taken away from his and the Student Council's life. His long crimson flowing hair. Red-colored and star-shaped glasses. His black-and-red outfit that was, maybe, a bit too tight, and the two pistols on their holsters, standing right behind Y/N, who had his back turned. The only thing missing was the scarf that was now on Gamagōri's hands. Soon, the man shut his eyes once more, and fell back-first on the ground.
.
Ryuko: ["That's one down, Satsuki"] The girl said, leaning her blade on her shoulders.
Inumuta: ["I suppose that means..."] Glancing to the side, the girl saw the short-haired man stepping down the stairs ["That I will be your next opponent, Matoi, L/N!"] Ryuko glared at Inumuta.
Satsuki: ["You're free to rest, Matoi"] The woman said, glancing down at Ryuko.
Ryuko: ["Huh, get real!"] She spat back, aiming her blade at Satsuki ["I gotta waste yours chumps and then come after you!"]
Y/N: ["Very well, then!"] Y/N smirks, crossing his arms and lifting one leg ["Send in the beat!"]
Inumuta: ["Always so impatient, L/N"] The man closes his eyes, smirking ["Still, I hate to waste time just as much as you do..."]
<<<<< I >[--I--]< I >>>>>
That was quite the chapter, was it not? So... What did you think of it?
