"These bitches must be out of their minds"
"They think they got me in a bind"
"But it won't be long till they find"
"That they're dealing with one of a kind"
"They laugh, they smile and they grin"
"They don't know the trouble they're in"
"But how can you expect things to end well?"
"When try to mess with a king"
"I say a word and the chain breaks"
"I take a step and the ground quakes"
"They come at me with their full strength"
"But still I'm someone that they can't take"
"Ain't no one that can catch me slipping"
"I can't keep count of the a** I'm kicking"
"If this was a game they'd say I'm cheating"
"Cus they brought guns but their shots are missing"
It didn't take long for Nega to break out of his own chains. He was kept in a similar place to Natsumi; an abandoned warehouse with enough space and many guards. His original plan was to wait for whoever Masterminded his and teach him a lesson but after waiting for a long time he lost his patience.
"Now" he said as he pulled out his phone
"It's about time I called this ni**a"
The phone rang and was Immediately picked on the other side.
"Hello boss" a high pitched male voice answered from the other side
"What do you need?" The man asked
"Vaquero" Nega said with a smile
"I just need you to come show your skills for a while"
"And also" he added
"I'll pay per kill"
"Got it, boss" the man said and hung up the phone.
"Alright" Nega sighed
"I better get home" he said as he walked away from the building
"The others are probably waiting for me there"
Meanwhile, Orie and Yamato were still on their little side mission.
"So why are we here?" Yamato asked as he looked around the open field
"There is no sign of anything here" he added
"All I can see is grass"
"Are you sure?" Orie asked as he looked Yamato in the eye and then looked at the ground beneath him.
"Just take a deep breath" he said as he looked back at Yamato with a smile.
Yamato adhered to Orie's instruction and took a slow deep breath. As the air filled his lungs, a peculiar scent caught his attention; so much that he held his breath.
"It's fresh, isn't it?" Orie asked and all Yamato could say in his state of ecstasy was "UBANESHI"
The two of them looked at each other with a sinister grin then Orie said to Yamato "Open it up".
Yamato stumped the ground with great force and a great torrent eroded the top soil of the field. What was underneath was revealed and it was gold as far the eye could see.
"He.." Yamato laughed
"He he.."Orie joined in
"WE'RE F***ING RICH" Yamato yelled out loud but was immediately hushed by Orie who held him by his mouth and told him "this is a restricted area, we've already made enough noise to alert the guards"
"It won't be long till they get get here so let's get packing"
The two immediately brought out their bags and started pouring the gold inside. The bags had near to infinite space so they didn't have to worry about them getting too filled up or heavy. To make things go faster, Yamato used water to direct the gold bars into his bag while Orie just opened his and the gold flew in at high speeds.
Like Orie said, it didn't take long for the security guards to arrive but by the time they came, Orie and Yamato were done with their looting and the ground that was opened had become a grassy field again.
"Who are you!!?" One of the guards yelled
"Identify yourself"another said
"Don't move"
"You're in the middle of a restricted area and are to be placed under arrest" a voice said from above them.
"I thought you said security guards" Yamato whispered to Orie.
"Yeah I did" Orie whispered back
"Then why do I see armored vehicles and helicopters?" Yamato asked in his whispering tone
"You sound like you didn't just loot two hundred million Arabian gold bars" Orie replied and all Yamato could say was "oh"
"Surrender peacefully and follow us to the station for questioning" a man from the helicopter above them said with a megaphone.
"If you resist, we cannot guarantee your survival"
Orie and Yamato looked at each other and could tell that they both had the same thing In mind. Then Orie walked forward and looked at the man above him, then he yelled out "AS IT STANDS RIGHT NOW!!!"
"I DON'T WANT PEACE!!!"
SHIN SEKAI SECRET: Yamato has a very sensitive nose. It is sensitive enough to detect money and gold.
"This is commander Hughes of the Freeland special forces" the man on the helicopter said loudly through the megaphone "You are trespassing in a restricted area" he said "Peacefully surrender and follow us to our base for further questioning" "If you don't, your life ends here" "That's quite a generous offer" Orie replied at the top of his voice "But I will have to decline" he said "My anger has already been kindled towards you" "So at this moment" "I don't want peace" "The only thing I want from you..." "...is problem" "The only thing I want from you..." "...is conflict" "The only thing I want from you..." "...is blood" "So look here, commander Hugh or commander Jackman or whatever you call yourself" "Don't think you can get me just because you got the jump on Matéo" Meanwhile, the fight between Mia and Genji was still at it's beginning. Mia wasn't as fast as she used to be an her strikes carried less weight but sh
In a field covered in smoke, there was a weird kind of silence. It wasn't that sounds could not be heard but that they could be heard clearly. The most prominent of those sounds was the sound of the helicopters that hovered above the field. "H3, what's your status" Hughes spoke into his communication device "I see nothing sir" a voice replied from the other side "I have no eyes on the..." The voice said and suddenly stopped "H3" "H3" "H3, REPORT!!!" Hughes yelled into his device but there was no answer. Then he looked forward through the windshield of the cockpit and saw one of his helicopters turning to face him "Oh sh**" he said he jacked a parachute from the side and jumped out of the aircraft. "Summon the mage squad" he spoke into his device as he watched the helicopter he was on burst into flames. With a loud cry and all her might, Mia swung her sword at Genji with the intent of taking off his head but for some reason, her blade couldn't go thro
"I want a sword that helps keep me alive" "A sword that once held will help me to survive" "A sword I can strike with that helps evade all strikes" "A sword for a coward to help me win all fights" Such were the words that went through Mia's head as she swallowed the glowing blue pill. As she vanished from Genji's line of sight, she reached out her hand for a sword. The moment she grabbed the sword that came to her, pictures of events she never experienced began flooding her mind, alongside the pictures came voices and an odd feeling of rage that she was sure wasn't hers. It didn't take long for her to understand that those were the memories within the sword but that wasn't the strangest part Despite the fact that there was rage within the sword and herself, Mia was sure that the the it was telling her to hang it on her waist and bring out something else. At first, she didn't listen and used the sword to attack Genji but when he covered himself in scales, Mia u
"Freeland has a law that states "superhuman abilities and magic of all forms are prohibited from being practiced. Any civilian caught using their powers in public will be charged with terrorism and arrested immediately" It is claimed by the government that this law was put in place to prevent the great Meta incident that occurred twenty-five years earlier but the law wasn't doing anything to help the underclassed citizens of the country. There were people, those that the protection of the government couldn't reach. Those who lived with constant fear in neighborhoods with the highest rates of crime. Those who had the power to fight back but were forbidden to do so by law. Soon, people grew tired. Those who were brave enough put on masks and took on nicknames in order to do what was right, they were called superheroes." Naomi narrated then took a huge slurp from her milkshake. "I moved here to join and make a difference" she added as she took another huge slurp. "So
Three shots to the head. That was all it took for Orie to end the mage squad that was held in high regards in all of Freeland. It couldn't be called a battle, it couldn't even be called a face-off because they all lost their lives as soon as they set their eyes on him. As soon as he had offed the mage squad, he set his sights back at Hughes. The commander who had just regained himself tried to run away but immediately got shot in both legs and fell. As the commander crawled in futility, the bringer of his death walked slowly behind him. Meanwhile, Shiro had found himself lost in the middle of town. "So what do now?" He asked himself as he paced around with Lighting speed. "I mean..." He said "...I had it down to the escape part but now I don't what comes next" "I don't know where my friends are, I don't know where Genji is" "How do I even...." "STOP RIGHT THERE!!!" a voice yelled through a megaphone "PUT YOUR HANDS IN THE AIR!!!" the voice yelled aga
Nega had a bit of a hard time getting back home but he was still the first to arrive. He sat on his chair in the same room he had met Orie and the others and proceeded to get a smoke. He made sure his blunt was rolled perfectly and searched himself for a lighter but couldn't find any. "Need a light?" A familiar voice said from the distance. He looked up to see someone he knew that he really needed at the moment. 'Philip Vaquero', arguably the greatest bounty hunter of his time with very few competition. With an almost perfect record, he made his way to the top spot in the bounty hunter world and what made him fearsome was that all his bounties were top tier and of the highest grade. So if Vaquero ever came for you, all you could do was hope that you were wanted alive. Such a fearsome man stood in front of Nega and called him "BOSS" with a casual salute and he reciprocated with a casual "yo" "You're quite early" Nega said as he reclined back on his chair "Well boss"
"If you ask questions that have already been asked, you will get answers you've already heard" "I find myself having to give answers to a question that has been asked many times" "A question with many answers" "An whatever action I take" "I would just be chosing amongst the multitudes of answers that have already been given" "What would you do if someone you love turned her blade against you?" "Do you strike back?" "Do you let them strike you?" "Do you find fault in them?" "Do you find fault yourself?" "Do you blame an enemy?" "Do you blame yourself?" "Many answers are given to this question" "But the only true answers are given by those who already made their choice" "Some would say that a gentleman would first try to initiate dialogue before drawing his sword" "But I am not a gentleman" "There is a creed i stand by for all situations" "If you want the story to go in your favor" "If you want to stand high at the end"
"OVERSHADOW", that is what was heard before the entire hall was thrown into a complete white-out. Everything was affected including the color of Mia's skin and hair. For a brief moment, Mia's expression showed that of one who was remorseful of her actions but it immediately switched back to the paleness it had before and she continued attacking Shiro. Her attacks had become sloppy. The intense color altering caused by Shiro's technique had a great effect on her ability to concentrate and differentiate the things in front of her and she found herself running into walls more often. "The real Mia would have figured this out by now" Shiro said in disappointment as he effortlessly evaded all her attacks. The battle stretched on and after a while, things started to regain thier normal appearance. The ominous figure in the dark made an observation. Even though he could see Shiro through a monitor, he could not feel a shred of his presence at all. The case was different a while ago
From within the circle came forth a huge bird of prey; a hawk. It appeard to be fully covered in silver. Just by looking at it, one could tell that its beak was harder than a rock and that its claws were as sharp as blades, even its wings didn't seem flying was all they could do. At this point in the battle where pride was being cast aside, the same thought ran through the minds of everyone watching. "NOW THE REAL FIGHT BEGINS" "Go" at this command from Chris, the bird threw itself at Orie with incredible speed. Orie evaded the bird without problem but what came next was quite challenging. After evading an attack from above he found himself facing one from below. Not many can escape such attacks from Chris. He would use the bird to make his opponents dodge in a certain manner, then he would go in for the real attack when their balance had been compromised. It was quite an effective move, but just not for Orie. "How is this possible?" Chris thought to himself as h
"This is my day" "This is my day" "This is my day" It kept repeating but Natsumi could not understand what it meant" "This is my day" She knew she had forgotten something "This is my day" She was sure she had forgotten something "This is my day" Something that would help her discern the situation. "This is my day" It stopped as soon as she realized what it meant. She remembered that when she thought it was Orie's birthday, he had told her these words. She remembered how he told her of the four market days of his tribe and that he shared his name with one of them. She remembered that he told her how the days affected his power, and this made her the least surprised person among the audience when Orie got back up on his feet. "WHAT... THE... F***!!!!?" Ellie screamed at the camera "How much blood does this guy have?" "He's lost so much yet he is still standing" "What kind of immortal dragon sh** is this" "This is not easy to believ
Chris Vanadium. The only reason he didn't make it to the finals as much as Cal was that he faced Waramaki in most of the semifinals. He is one of the few people that have been able to beat Cal in the previous tournaments. He is also a one time champion and the one he beat to earn that title was none other than Fuji Waramaki. There were many reasons to fear him, but most feared attribute of his was the speed of his blade. Yes, he fights with a sword and he is really good with it; so good that a large percentage of his matches end in less than a minute. Anyone that saw his previous match was immediately reminded of how dangerous he was, even some that had faith in Orie in the previous match lost it for this one. To sum things up on how dangerous he was, the chance of him making it to the final match of the current tournament was ninety-nine percent. Though Orie's match was the first of round one, in round two, his match was the third. Not many had high hopes for this match beca
There was complete silence in all parts of the stadium. It wasn't that people had nothing to say but what could they say that could explain what just happened before their eyes? They just watched as the referee ran in to confirm the outcome. It took longer than usual as the referee also had his doubts but in the end he had no choice but to declare Cal unable to continue. The silence broke immediately he stood up to declare Orie the winner. The doubt of many began to flow out in words. "IT'S A LIE!!" "THIS IS BULLSHIT!!" "THIS GAME IS RIGGED!!" There was no word of doubt that was not spoken at that moment. Even when the medics came out to put Cal on a stretcher, people still thought it was an act. What could Orie do? He had just won a match and no one believed it. There was hardly anyone cheering for him, all the loud voices expressed nothing but doubt, hate, and disbelief. Despite all the hate he was getting, he just cracked a smile and walked out of the arena
You never truly appreciate a miracle unless you heard of it before it happened. That moment when the thing you thought was just too impossible begins to unfold before you for the very first time. There is no look more precious than that of one who has had such experience. Miracles happen only once. After that, it becomes a possibility. Cal and Orie were initially rated on a seven to one ratio. This meant that the officials of this tournament believed that Cal was at least seven times more powe6r than Orie and seven times more likely to win. At the current time the ratio had become ten to one. It seemed hopeless for the few that had put their faith in Orie. The match wasn't over but the situation made them feel the winner was already decided. "What is he doing in there?" "Does he have a death wish?" "Just give up already!!"even some of those that were on his opponent's side felt pity for him but Orie was not one to dwell on pity. He could not hear their words, al
"Ellie Porter here" "Live from the inside of the stadium and best seat in the house" "The starting buzzer for the match has been sounded but neither of the contenders have moved from their starting positions" "Cal is taking his time to charge up his power but we have no idea why Orie hasn't moved yet" "I still stand on my support for him but he has done what the rest of the world consider to be the greatest mistake in the history of this tournament" Ellie was right. Everyone that won against Cal in the previous tournament was powerful but that wasn't the only reason they won; they were able to win because they stopped him from charging up properly. The last person that let him charge up fully got knocked out in one hit and that was the expectation most of the crowd had for Orie. Soon, Cal had finished charging up. One could tell by the steam-like aura that could be seen emanating from his body. He got ready to move as the cheering of the crowd got louder; he was con
Just in case you were wondering where the fight was happening, the SHIN SEKAI company built a large stadium in the middle of the island where all roads cross. It was not exactly a hard place to find; in fact it was the most findable place in all of the island. The city was crowded with people from all over the world who were there for many different reasons. With the exception of those that came to spectate the matches, the most common visitors to this event were scouts and reporters. The tournament may not do much for the teachers, but it had the power to determine the future of the students that participated. "Ellie Porter here, reporting live from stadium one" a woman spoke with a clear voice as she stood with a microphone in front of a camera man. "As you can see, people from all over the world have come to witness the first match of the new world tournament" "This tournament was first introduced thirteen years ago on the same year that the school was built"
The new world tournament was one unique tournament. Despite the fact that it was held by a school and it's participants were staff and students, it still managed to draw worldwide attention. One contributing factor to this could be that the Shin-sekai academy was a prestigious school and was attended by the children of many of the world's elites but the major factor was that it proved to be more entertaining than many others in the world. The structure of the tournament was divided. The teachers' tournament took place first then the students' came after. After winners had been decided from both sides, the two winners would then have a face off. The winner of the previous teacher's tournament was Fuji Waramaki who had remained undefeated for five years. He also won all the face-offs with the student champions. The teachers tournament was full of old faces and the only two new faces in the tournament were Orie and Natsumi. Not many expected a different result from the teach
"The breeze in the west shall become the storm in the east" "It shall become a powerful force in the north" "And a sight of awe in the south" "And when it returns to the west..." "It shall be unstoppable" "My dear boy, Andrew Clipper" "These are not mere words" "This is your story" On hearing this, Andrew opened his eyes. He was on his knees and Orie stood beside him, placing a hand on his head. The room was dark and was lit by seven candles, and there was no one else in the room with them. Though all the doors and windows in the room were closed an intense wind blew within it. Gradually, the wind got stronger and blew ferociously around the empty room. It was strange that the seven candles didn't go off. "You are a storm that will sweep through all" "A wind that can move lands" "A reckoning force of greatness" "An unbreakable wind" "That, is what you are" Shiro was waiting for them outside the room. Throughout his the time he was wa
