Chapter 208 - Going to Southern Island (1/2)
”Of course not! The invitation has clearly stated, that island will be holding a martial art competition, and please bring Ryozanpaku's Disciple for the event...In other words, YOMI members will be participating in it as well, and they will fight fair and square on the stage.” Kensei Ma replied
”Ordinary fighters can join as well?” Miu asked
”Of course. Even A nameless fighter can show off their skill at this tournament. D of D, desperate fight of disciples, is limited to those fighters who are under 20, and it is a tradition in the martial art world.” explained Sakaki.
”They even invited masters like us. They sure have some guts. If they dare to plot something against us” said Sakaki.
”THEN LET US GIVE THEM ONE HELL OF A SHOW,” said the Masters together.
”But before we go you guys should have your end term exams so that you won't have any problem with it” Elder Hayato said.
”Sure we will do that,” said Kenichi nodding his head.
”But on another note, do we have a plan we are gonna follow!?” asked Miu
”Ah yes we do!” replied Akisame.
'It's called 'Enjoy the mood of the southern Islands first, then make a big mess and leave” explained Elder.
”Heheheh....” Shizuha laughed after hearing that planned while Miu was stunned silent.
For next few days Kenichi, Miu, and Saeko applied for the end term exam in advance she got to know about the southern island trip from Miu while she was also told by her father to go there as there representative hence the Ryozanpaku decided to take Saeko along since she would be going there even if they didn't want to take her with them.
Seeing these four give advance exam the others decided to do so as well. Except for Takeda and Ukita, the rest were good in their studies but since Ukita started learning under Master Akisame there was no way he could dodge studies hence he had to practice very hard to pass the exam and since Ukita was doing it Takeda also studied for the exam and gave the paper in advance on Niijima's insistent but they didn't get to know the reason behind it until two days after the exams.
Few more days had passed without a peep from Niijima, making the residents believe that he doesn't know about the competition but Kenichi knew better. Soon, they were all walking to where Ryozanpaku's hand-crafted boat was waiting at the pier, where they would take it to the island. Noir the cat was being carried by Miu while Saeko who was walking beside her was playing with the cat. She didn't want to leave him behind, and hiring someone to catsit for Noir wasn't an option. Plus Noir knew how to defend itself thanks to Tochumaru, and so it was decided that they would take him with them. However, waiting at the pier was a surprise to all of the Ryozanpaku masters.
”KEKEKEKEKEKE did you think that you would be leaving us behind” laughed Niijima as he and the rest of the Shinpaku Alliance members were there waiting. Surprisingly even Natsu and Renka were also there with them.
”Yeah, you didn't think we went to the underground arena to train and not come to this D of D!?” shouted Takeda, gesturing to himself, Kisara, Tsuji, and Ukita who nodded in reply.
