23. TANAKI V.S. MICKEE!

"Wind Hurl Barrage!" Codey's boomerangs multiplied when aimed and targeted as Ishin. "What?! Damn! No!" Ishin called with a gulp. "You see! Wind Hurl Barrage, uses a gigantic amount of winf energy! Higher I am, the stronger the air! This means I can multiply boomerangs at to a maximum limit of aerial energy. It gives me a perfect opportunity to defeat an opponent! Remember this saying! Higher the cloud! Higher the reversal! Sky is my victory!" Codey called, faint speed forced the wind to be somewhat weak however, the boomerangs were all unleashed with a hand swing toward Ishin, his eyes shook in a shock. "It's your time to lose!"

|Zero World - Hinomaru Area, C.A.C. Arena - Wednesday, 6:28 p.m.|

After the trapper-like attack, Codey calmed down, he perfectly faced towards Ishin, who was found to be still standing. Breathing in a co-step, with his arms wormly, Ishin spoke after breathing painfully and heavily. "....Codey.*cought*, you. you. messed up, *cough* my hair and clothes." Codey was listening to his conversation towards. ("Damn it, he is still standing after such heavy attack, damn it... I'll never get through him, besides. That took quite heavy amount of my stamina.") However, Ishin's eyes were faint, once he was pushed onto his stomach, with the Zero Shiled shattering and scattering across the floor in sparkles, the victory was a luck to Codey. "Today's first round winner is! Codey Katorishi!" The victory reached Codey once he slowly stepped to the front after levitation. ("I see. you still had enough energy to tell me that.") Codey's boomerang's dispersed around the stretched floor. "Oh.... he actually won I thought, he'd lose for sure. I sure saw him fail from every corner" Myles spoke once being surprised. Thinking in his mind, Ishin's head accepted his old memories. ("Damn.. you.. Codey.") Those were his last thoughts after being unconsciouss for good. The medicine team provided healthly exceel and took Ishin to the recovery room. ("If I end up fighting him how will I ever be able to beat him, all I have is arts no special techniques apart from Seraphic Penetrate but. already after one, I'd get tired.") Tim wondered in his mind, when quickly exchanging looks with Codey. "With our first fight, out of the way, we may move to the next! Next pair, who'll be fighting! Are Tanaki Aramaku against Mickee Teharashi! You two may already proceed with preperations!" The announcer Rez called. One duelist with rather smaller body was facing someone who had extremely muscular body. "What a fool, everyone here is going to be squashed by my mass!" Tanaki, slammed his fist into the palm, once his opponent Mickee, faced him slightly. "Forget your mass, think of how you fight, strength is not always a goal to victory." Mickee stepped forward with crossed arms and readied on the opposite side of the arena. "What a shithead, cannot even understand, what I really am capable of." Mickee spoke.

Both, Tanaki and Mickee prepared themselves on the opposite sides once waiting for order to begin, after Rez allowing them to summon the Zero Dimension field, the two of them quickly reached for their own Ginkens, aura around them shook and swept around their bodies, once Mickee achieved an extremely long reaching katana, Tanaki in the other hand, had what seemed to be gauntlets, heavy and around his wrist. "So, short guy, what will be your strategy, will you just try and use your speed to catch up and confuse me. Or will you try to go fullout offense and hope to strike me with every hit?" Tanaki asked once the spikes grew from his two gauntlets. "Currently, I rather not explain my strategy.. but you may know, in between the duel, that is, if you're smart enough to understad my fighting style." Mickee spun his katana in his off hand, when quickly sweeping and swinging his arm forward. Tanaki gave me a confident smile. "Have it your way, no matter, strategies do not work against me efficiently. I'm a reckless destroyer, who can bring an entire earthquake, that's just how strong I am at my full strength!" Tanaki answered while looking at his gauntlets in front, smiling with his heavly muscular body. Spectators and audience were surprised. "Huh, is he really that strong?" Tim followed up with a question, Codey decided to slip behind him, when reaching for the fence. "Oh, Codey! Congratulations on your victory" Ayuka answered with her standing on the other side of Tim, crossed arms. "Not a big deal besides, that guy has to learn some proper ideas He only thinks of himself as if he was superior to others, just like that Tanaki guy, fighting." Tim listened onto what Codey said, when quickly giving a confused face at Tanaki. "I feel like.... that guy actually isn't really a joke... you know what I mean?" "Yeah, he it's a 50% chance. but if he really is that strong, that guy might actually cause us a problematic situation." ("Codey is right. but we cannot be sure... just yet.") Ayuka wondered. The dueling countdown, dropped to ZERO, when the fight began.

Tanaki raised his big hands as he smashed against the floor. Mickee quickly took a step forward and ran, a red aura appeared around his body as Mickee suddenly doubled. "Duplication?" Tanaki smiled with the question, as he struck the ground, with special power only from his hands, Tanaki smashed the ground and divided it into cubes that flew high into the air, towards a quick attack, crystals suddenly appeared rising from the ground towards Mickee. Mickee continued with his doubled body as they both lined up on the other side. Running towards his opponents, they both jumped forward as glowing crystals swung between the two. Tanaki looked up as he quickly aimed his right hand with a smile. Both Mickees began to jump over the crystals that remained built, and approached Tanaki. With the collected energy, Tanaki launched a long-range attack, small sharp crystal shards flew towards both opponents. Mickee to his left, tightened the rope around his katana handle as he swung forward with a red aura and energy, crystals crashed into the katana blade, exploded. "What? Are you kidding?!" Tanaki questioned, however, he never realized that his guard was off, Another Mickee clung to him. ("I'm not stupid! The duplication was just a distraction! Which means, the one behind me is the real one!") Tanaki quickly swung his hand back as he hit Mickee, who disappeared and exploded in red light. "What!?" The one behind Tanaki, who attacked was a fake. Tanaki quickly turned back when he spotted Mickee still jumping in front of him. Tanaki swung towards him, Mickee quickly put his foot in the ground as he jumped in a reversal, over Tanaki, pushing the katana back, Mickee swung towards Tanaki, with a circular slip of one leg, a pointed crystal suddenly rose in front of Tanaki, which attacked Mickee. With the defense, Mickee was blown up when he was spun by force. "Good trick, but it won't work on me!" Tanaki made a smile once looking up. However, Tanaki was suddenly wrapped around of a long rope. With his eyes shaking, Mickee made a sigh. "Sorry.. I believe you didn't realize what I was planning on doing." Mickee spoke, Tanaki, being trapped on the spot and unable to move continued shaking it off, however the rope was suddenly given a manipulated red aura, Tanaki's logic became confused.

To be continue...
