"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 mbers 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 naless fighter can show off their skill at this tournant. 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 so guts. If they dare to plot sothing 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 Akisa.
'It's called 'Enjoy the mood of the southern Islands first, then make a big ss 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 Akisa 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 soone 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 mbers 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 co to this D of D!?" shouted Takeda, gesturing to himself, Kisara, Tsuji, and Ukita who nodded in reply.
"I trained with my grandfather once more to throw myself into the world of Martial arts, ad rediscovering myself in the process" stated Kana as she twirled her staff around, "After what Ryozanpaku's weapons master had said, I followed her advice and beca master of my own body with my staff as a true extension of my body."
"This is the perfect opportunity to spread the word of combat sumo!" exclaid Thor, "As a martial artist, I cannot let this chance get away!"
"This is one of the biggest events in the world of martial arts! How could I know about it and not want to co!?" cheered Renka, "I am going to show the world what the phoenix Alliance can do!"
I got information that my master may be on that island. I am going to drag him back ho to have him finish up training . Plus Kaede also wants to et him" said Natsu shrugging his shoulders.
That's all and good reasons, but first, how did you even get to know about D of D and the second thing is the D of D is an invitation exclusive offer. If you wanted to fight, you would have to prove in so way that you are directly under Ryozanpaku. Only my daughter, my brothers' disciple and Ukita who's Akisa's disciple could have any standing on that" frowned Kensei "Just saying your group is allied with us gives no real standings"
"KEKEKEKE I have the answer for both things right here" cackled Niijima.
"Oh? Then what is it!?" asked Akisa
"Because yours truly, the Shinpaku Alliance have been invited to the D of D" cackled Niijima as he pulled out an invite with the Shinpaku Alliance's na on it. Everyone's jaw dropped as they saw the legitimate invite, complete with Diego's signature.
"HOW!?" was the question ringing through everyone's mind except Apachai who was just clapping.
"We earned enough rep to get his attention" giggled Niijima, "With the defeat of the Zanshin Taisha Ryu and Spark of Yomi, not to ntion Ogata ntioning our na with Kenichi's, I am guessing Diego Carlo thought we were entertainnt material."
"Not to ntion after continues investnts The Shinpaku Alliance is quite rich" Niijima added ntally
"So you gonna take us to the island with you?" grinned Niijima.
Elder Hayato closed his eyes taking a deep breath while he did so. After what seed to be hours when in reality was just a few minutes, Elder Hayato opened his eyes once more.
He jumped over all of them, standing in front of the boat now. He then raised his hand up, having it positioned knife-hand strike and slashed the ground instantly there, was a line in between The Shinpaku Alliance and the boat.
"Please understand that during this ti, we will not be able to protect you all... However, if you are determined to co, step forth beyond this line. Co if you are not afraid of what lies beyond this point."
