Chapter 260 - YAMIs Reaction (1/2)
Someone who could make Sho utter those words wasn't to be taken lightly.
Even Hongo looked at Sho with concern in his eyes. He knew his disciple well, and the fact that Sho actually admitted to all of them that he would lose was a rather big step in humility. He was also curious about his rival Sakaki had somehow trained a monster.
”As I thought, we should have chosen my disciple to be the leader of YOMI and inherit our skills” declared Mikumo Kushinada, ”You are not fit to be a master, God Hand.”
”The emotionless fist is the basic principle of YAMI” lectured Cyril Rahman, ”To withdraw your fist before even attempting to fight to observe your enemies is quite concerning. Even my disciple had to be ordered to retreat, though I don't know why Diego didn't let my disciple go at it. To think this is the one who would inherit...”
He didn't finish the sentence but it was a sentiment that was shared among most of them. Sho could only clench his fist at his jab but kept silent.
”Now now, people let's stop this internal fighting” pacified Alexander, ”We shouldn't judge someone this harshly. Not when we have yet to hear what the rest of the disciples have to say.”
”KEKEKE, internal fight?” giggled Jenazad while munching on some gr.a.p.es, ”Each one of us believes that our sole martial arts are the strongest! Gathering together was a mere solution to avoid fighting each other. We have never had such comradeship in the first place! But I do disagree with the old hag and bear about their words.”
Kushinada and Cyril glared at Jenazad for such words but also in confusion why he would say such a thing. The fact that he was defending Sho when he personally had disposed of his disciple.
Agaard Jum Sai shrugged, ”That's true. Even if it was my disciple that was to inherit us all, I wouldn't want him to learn any martial arts than my own. I want to prove Muay Thai is the strongest there is!”
”Now now, let's get back to our original topic” placated Ogata, ”I do believe we agreed to have all the disciples give their own analysis.”
”Hmph, Sho's judgment must be colored by your teachings” harrumphed Kushinada.
”Well then let's hear it then,” sated Agaard before turning to his disciple, ”Kokin, give me your honest judgment. What are your chances?”
Tirawit couldn't help but shake very slightly now that all the attention was on him now. Giving himself a few seconds to calm down, Tirawit began to speak.
”If I was to fight with the same conditions as Suparna had listed then it would be 100%..”
”Ha, see my disciple says he can deal with it” grinned Agaard as he turned to face them.
”...Of me losing without landing any crippling or life-threatening damage,” admitted Tirawit, interrupting his master's boast, who stopped with his jaw still open.
”Two of them?” questioned Jisei Ro, ”I believe we should heed Ogata's words and have them talk before passing Judgement.”
”Boris, report full disclosure” ordered Alexander.
”Mission would end in failure” replied Boris succinctly.
