Josh and the others looked like they wanted to punch the king in the face after saying all of those things and some of the brothers even stepped forward to do just that. However they were stopped by Jinx who held out an arm, his eyes never leaving the king.
"So this is how this world really is, with women having no say or power?" Jinx asked though it was more of a rhetorical question. "Doesn't sound that far off from how our own world works. However our own world still respects its own women to some degree. You however do not, but its not our place to say anything as she's your wife and if she agrees then there's nothing we can say ir do to change it."
"But Jinx hes basically insulting your futrue wives!!" Josh exclaimed as he took a step forward. "You just gonna let him do that?"
Jinx shook his head. "He's not insulting them. He's just telling me how this world works and to change my way of thinking. However I refuse to do that and he knows it so he'll probably drop the subject. Am I right Jonathan?"
Jonathan smiled and nodded his head. "You catch on rather quickly. I was indeed just warning you on how this place works and how I utilize it to benefit me. Seeing as you have no intention to change your way of thinking, I'll just let the subject drop and continue with the bet negotiating."
Jinx shook his head. "Negotiations are finished. I'll take your bet and do what you ask if I lose, but if I win I also want a few hundred gold coins delivered to me the day I set out on my journey. Agreed?"
Jonathan nodded his head. "I feel like I should warn you though that your friends have been training for the entire week you were unconscious and their teamwork is pretty impressive. Its only right to tell you to not let down your guard as they could probably overpower you if given the chance."
Jinx nodded as he turned around and walked a few dozen feet away before turning back. "Josh, Henry, and Braws, you three come at me. Lets get this party started!!"
The three nodded and, without even a starting signal, the three of the took of at a run while keeping their bodies low to the ground. The battle had begun and everyone took major steps back to give the four of them space to fight.
Jackey and Violet were worried the most as they had seen the three brothers fight sometime earlier that week when Jinx was still asleep. They had been far too fast for their eyes to see and it caused them to feel a bit of anxiety just watching the brothers approach.
Jack and Blaster on the other hand were busy placing bets with each other before the four had even begun fighting. It was clear that they didn't care as long as they got a good show from it. Violet found this rather strange but she eventually turned her attention back to Jinx.
Jinx just stood there looking at his hand with a curious expression as the three brothers approached. Violet had no idea what he was doing, but if he didn't do something soon, he was going to get hurt.
Henry and Braws split up and ran in a circle to attack from the sides in a pincer attack while Josh headed to fight Jinx straight on. Jinx didn't even look up from looking at his hand so when the other two arrived and threw their fists into the side of his head and his gut, he took the full impact. Josh followed up tue two attacks with a punch to the chest that sent him stumbling back.
After that things seemed to go downhill as the three proceeded to brutally beat him and knock him around using various tactics that showed off their teamwork and insane amount of coordination. It wasn't until Josh slammed his fist into Jinx's chest and sent him flying into a tree that Jackey spoke up.
"Isn't someone gonna stop them?" Jackey asked with a look of disbelief on her face. "He's getting pummeled so just call off the match."
"Never stood a chance," Jonathan muttered as he watched from the side. He looked like he was having conflicting feelings about something.
"What did you expect? He's 3 against 1...even if he's great, he cant match up to their sheer teamwork." Violet was almost to the point of shouting as she tried to defend Jinx.
"Thats not who I meant," Jonathan said with a small smile. "Why don't you girls just look at Vex Masters and tell me what you see. I don't see someone whose gravely injured."
Both Jackey and Jinx turned their heads and looked back towards the fight. Jinx, instead of being passed out and seriously injured, was standing up and dusting off his pants. He not only looked completely unharmed but also had a small smile on his face.
"Well well well, you guys have gotten a LOT stronger. THAT I will most definitely admit." Jinx took a few steps forward before stopping and taking a fighting stance. "However, warmups are over, lets get down to the real fight. Come at me with everything you got, no holding back."
Josh looked at him with an amazed look. "Did none of those attacks faze you? Damn thats some ritual if it was able to give you so much power. Then I guess theres no need to hold back. Henry....Braws, get into position, we're gonna use the miniature shockwave."
Henry walked forward and took a stance. "I really don't want to as it might hurt him but I also want to test it out on another person."
Braws didnt say anything as he walked up and stood next to his two brothers.
The three of them then closed their eyes and held out their hands with their palms facing Jinx. A sort of yellow light could be seen gathering into the center of the their palms as they all opened their eyes.
"Kaaaaaaameeeeee," All three of them began to scream, their faces filled with a mix of concentration and determination.
"Are you guys seriously yelling that?" Jinx asked with a small laugh as he watched more and more light get sucked into the growing sphere. At this point it was clear that they were all channeling their energy into a single point. "Please stop embarassing me...."
"Haaaaaaammmmeeeeee," All three of them were in perfect synch and looked ready to fire. Jinx was beginning to get slightly annoyed as the yellow ball that was now the size of a beach ball was more akin to the Final Flash then the Kamehameha.
"Haaaaaaaaaa," They all screamed together as they released the ball light.
The light transformed in a huge beam that shot toward Jinx faster then he could dodge. He could only raise his arms in defense as the light hit him full force, forcing him back. There wasn't any heat as he had expected but there was force which proceeded to travel throughout his body before dispersing into the ground.
Jinx growled and pushed back, dispersing the light with a single push of his arms. His whole body now had spasms of pain and though there were no visible injuries, he felt that there were probably internal injuries going on in his body.
"Your still standing?" Josh asked as he struggled to catch his breath as the attack seeemd to take a toll. "Guess the energy wasn't enough."
"What the hell...was that????!!!" Jinx asked, more then a little confused. "Was that the power of combat magic? It sucks and takes too long to charge. If I hadn't been just standing here waiting for you, it wouldn't have connected."
Jinx stomped on the ground, his body disappearing from view. Josh and Henry took up a defensive stance while Braws failed to do so and was almost immediately knocked unconscious when Jinx appeared behind him and slammed his fist into the side of his head.
Following up with the attack, Jinx disappeared again before reappering behind Josh. Josh was expecting it and tried to defend but Jinx was just too quick as he slammed his fist into Josh's gut, sending him to the floor. The same happened to Braws except that Jinx ended up kicking him in the stomach rather then a punch.
"When you guys get up, I want a full explanation," Jinx said as he walked away from them. "That technique SHOULD have been called the Final Flash. Stupid!!"
