ARE YOU AFRAID-- DAMN YOU!!! show us how you kill the hokage!! you can't let them off that easily!! (throw stuff at the ring, a bottle hits recca's head) recca : EHH!? tatsuko : kya... please clam down...... stop throwing things! kukai : this is bad. the people are mad because they expected more. saicho : it's going to turn into a riot soon... (fujimaru has an umbrella to protect himself from the cans) audience : cowar... d... huh---!? (recca summons setsuna and shun en fries those annoying people) recca (really serious/cool look) : you people on the outside are too noisy!! I've already suppressed the flame to the lowest temperature. I won't be responsible for any accidents. [be quiet if you don't wan to die.] open your eyes and look if you don't believe me. audience (all close eyes) : uh... whoever looks into the eyes of that dragon will burn. I heard it's called setsuna... kukai : nice going. saicho (covering his eyes, sweatdrop) : but he should've warn us... yanagi : that was great, recca kun! (recca has a big bump on the back of his head) kagero (funny face) : it probably really hurts where he got hit......... recca : want to see what you have to say. what are you doing here, yashiro! yashiro (dragging the two coffins) : ......we fought in this tournament... for a very important purpose. it's called "revenge"...... what happened four years ago... people here should still remember... in the second ura butou satsujin! yes... the back at the last tournament... text (with a group picture of the younger saakasu team) : chigusari-- gaia-- karin-- and me, yashiro-- we took a letter from each of our names and named the team saakasu...... in the final battle of block B. (chart, saakasu meets uruha kurenai) we've won without any problems till now. but... BUT!! (flashback, all the other members were badly wounded, yashiro's face became all scratched like the way he looks right now) yashiro : KARINNNN!! (noroi holds karin, the girl, by the neck, karin struggling) karin : help me... ya... yashi... yashiro : we give up. just leave her alone!! text : at that time, no one's body could move. I gave up because I wanted to save karin... kurei (standing with the rest of his team) : kill her. noroi! text : it happened in an instant-- (yashiro had a look of horror, I don't really know what noroi looks like cuz he doesn't really have a face, recca and the audience listen in silence) yashiro : I swore... (back to flashback, yashiro holding karin's body) d... damn you... uruha kurenai!!! un... unforgivable!! one day I'll be back to find you... REVENGE!!! kurei : hahah... (leave) text : he disappeared in front of me with a smirk on his face. in the end... kurei won that tournament with such superior power-- and... the tihrd ura butou satsujin! the time has come!! for us we were weakened by one less member... the revenge has just begun. but... (scene of gaia dying) --gaia, died in the second round-- chigusari (dying) : no way, yashiro... you have to carry this mission alone now... text : --chigusari, died in round three-- this tournament has raised its level from the last one. before the mission is half completed, I am the only left of the saakasu. I carry the will of three people with me. yashiro (end of flashback) : it's impossible to meet uruha kurenai... therefore-- I want to find someone to inherit the will. that's you... hokage! you guys... can defeat uruha kurenai! so I'm forfeiting because of this... (audience getting noisy again) BE QUIET!! ...maybe you have noticed... maybe you know... (flashback of all of hokage's past battles) you have all seen hokage fight... their strength is apparent. of the two teams that advanced to the block A final... one side has one person left, where the other side is completely unharmed... isn't there one guy among you who believe in the hokage? no one supports them? they will be the ones to dominate block A!! they will be our representing team from block A! how can they not win!? audience (thinking it over) : ou... our... ......... that's... right... not really happy, but hokage did beat all of us!! then they will definitely be victorious!! it sounds a little strange, but we accept it!! you guys are strong!!! you represent us! don't humiliate us!! hokage!! (chant) HOKAGE!! HOKAGE! HOKAGE!! HOKAGE!! yanagi (wiping off tears) : everyone... audience : hokage!! hokage!! kukai : what a cheap crowd. they've always agreed inside. saicho : they were waiting for the right time. (smile) the time to cooperate... joker (shadow covers his face) : hmph... recca (yashiro holds hand with him) : ! yashiro (smile) : can I believe in you? to defeat kurei... recca (BIG smile) : ......of course!! it's a promise!! I'M GONNA WINNNN!!! yashiro (leaves) : I'm sorry, but please bury my friends for me. recca : huh... and you? yashiro : I'll go to where I should be... tatsuko : hokage vs. saakasu!! hokage won without battle!! the representing team of block A is hokage!!! (yashiro walks out leaving a trail of blood) text : the place... where I belong... (somewhere in the hall, yashiro sits down against the wall) yashiro : gaia... chigusari... karin... do you think I'm useless...? I gave our will... to a few kids... chigusari : [--no way, yashiro! (a ghost appears) they can do it! it's alright... they'll carry out our expectations!] yashiro : chigusari... gaia (another ghost appears) : [we've always been here. we've been waiting for you to find the people to inherit our will.] yashiro : gaia... text : you can rest now... (karin appears) karin : [the four of us can be together again...] yashiro (smile) : it's... not a dream... karin... [you can't lose... hokage...............] (dies) (block B supporters watching the block A fight on scene) text : block B audience : hokage became the representatives from block A... seems like a lot of people support them. hmph... that's because block A is the weakest block... those idiots are cheering for the opposite team... magensha : this is good news... let's take care of block B soon also. text : the dead always pass on their hope to the living-- the belief of victory... announcement : mikagami tokiya! kirisawa fuuko! koganei kaoru! ishijima domon! hanabishi recca! team hokage!! determined as Block A representatives!! end of volume 9 chapter 2 --------------------------------------------------------------------------- [ Email | Lynx | Updates | Sign My Guestbook | View My Guestbook ] Search the Net [1]
