Chapter 6: The Lightning strikes

As the group walked through the park, they spotted a young boy sitting alone on a bench. He looked no more than 7 years old, with a small body and round chubby cheeks. Alex, Hayate, Angelo, and Tatsuya walked over to him to see if he was okay.

"Hey there, are you lost?" Alex asked.

The boy looked up at them with big, innocent eyes. "No, I'm not lost. I'm just waiting for someone."

"Who are you waiting for?" Angelo asked.

"I'm waiting for my boss," the boy replied. "He sent me here to meet you."

"Meet us?" Hayate repeated, confused.

The boy nodded. "Yes, I'm Hiroto Nakamura. I'm supposed to become the 10th generation Luciano Lightning Guardian."

The group exchanged surprised glances. Hiroto was just a child, but they could sense a power radiating from him. They decided to hear him out and see what he had to offer.

"Hiroto, do you know what you're getting into?" Alex asked, concerned.

"I know that being a guardian means protecting the family at all costs," Hiroto replied, with a determined look on his face.

Alex nodded in approval. "Alright, then let's see what you can do."

Hiroto stood up, his chubby cheeks puffing up in excitement. He pulled out a small toy gun from his pocket and pointed it at the sky. Suddenly, a bolt of lightning struck the gun, causing it to transform into a large metallic weapon.

"Whoa!" Tatsuya exclaimed, amazed.

Hiroto smiled proudly. "This is my Lightning Bolt gun. It's my weapon, and I'm ready to fight for the Luciano family!"

The group was impressed with Hiroto's determination and his lightning powers. They welcomed him with open arms, and he became the youngest member of their team.

As they walked away from the park, the group felt stronger and more united than ever before. With each new guardian, they felt more confident in their ability to protect their family and uphold the Luciano Code.
