The Draco

At the same time, during Akira and Unknown's battle between two of the Snachro brothers, the situation on the jet takes a turn. Selena was assigned the job of watching the portal to Satch's pocket dimension. Even with the jet still shaking, she is doing her job well by sitting down and reading a book named "Is it Wrong to Destroy Your Enemies?" which happens to be one of her favorites.

"Oh my, this book never gets old! They need to hurry up and make another volume!"

As Selena flips to the next page of her favorite book, she hears a noise come from the entrance of the portal. Selena instantly gets out of her seat.

"Mr. Mink, is that you?"

To her surprise, instead of Mr.Mink coming out of the portal, it was Satch.

"Wait a minute, if you're here, where is Mr.Mi—!?"

As Satch walked out of the portal, it became more clear to Selena of Satch's actual situation. Satch's body was covered in cuts and bruises. Blood spilled from his body onto the floor. When Selena looked into Satch's eyes, it didn't even look like he was still alive.

"Satch, was it? Where's my teacher, do you know?"

"...He is...Inv—"

Satch falls to the floor, where his blood splatters all over.

"Wait, he's what?"

With Satch distracting Selena from the portal, she didn't notice Mr.Mink making his exit from the portal with zero injuries.

"Hello, Selena I was able to successfully dispatch Satch, as you can see."

"Yes, I can definitely see that, but I wonder what he did to make you beat him to an inch of his life."

Mr.Mink looks around the jet and notices that it is still shaking.

"Where's Kage? Is he still outside trying to pull that blade out?"

Selena instantly gets suspicious.

"He's still somehow blanking his mind when I read it."

"Selena, you went silent. Don't tell me you're trying to read my mind again."

"Wait a minute; he can't tell when I try to read his mind. Does that mean whatever he's doing is somehow automatic?"

"Selena!"

"Oh, sorry, Mr.Mink. I guess I got caught up in my thoughts. Kage is still outside. I checked earlier with my powers; he is currently fighting a Draco."

"The beast?"

"I have no idea how Satch and his crew were able to get such a powerful beast to work for them."

"Alright, I understand. Let's let him handle his business. We will wait till he finishes his battle."

"Wait, do you really think that's a good idea? That beast is powerful! Who knows how long Kage can last up there by himself? We got to go help him."

"When I put my trust in him to pull that blade out, I saw his eyes. I've noticed this ever since I first met Kage. Even with his cockiness, that boy still has the most drive in his heart. Me helping him after putting my trust in him would be nothing but disrespectful."

Selena looks at Mr.Mink, who is looking at the roof with a serious expression.

"I still can't figure you out, but you might just be right."

Outside of the jet, Kage and the Draco have started their battle in the skies. Kage, using energy jet, flies up so he can get closer to the Draco.

"Raaaaar!"

The Draco released blue flames from all three of its mouths.

"Energy barrier!"

Kage puts up a barrier of energy in front of him, but turns it into an attack by spinning with energy jet blasting him up. The energy barrier changes shape into a cone shape, which is very similar to a rocket.

"Let me show you the first move made with energy jet in mind!"

With Kage spinning at top speeds, he screams.

"Energy rocket!"

Kage spins threw the Draco blue flames until he is directly in front of the beast. Kage doesn't stop there and slams into the beast. Even with the amount of power put into the attack, it only left a bloody scratch but did have enough force to send the beast into the sky. The Draco completely disappears into the clouds. Kage stops spinning but seems dizzy from it.

"Woah, everything is spinning!"

With him being dizzy, Kage accidentally stops using energy jet and starts falling back to the ground.

"Oh shit!"

After coming back to his senses, Kage once again uses energy jet to stay in the air.

"Damn, it seems energy rocket still needs some work. Becoming dizzy every time I use it isn't a great situation to put myself in, but that beast is strong. I barely left a scratch on it, but at least I was able to knock it back. Wait a minute, this is my chance!"

Kage, using energy jet, flies to the jet that is a decent distance away from him.

"If everyone is outside, the least they could do is stop the damn jet!"

Kage flies to the area of the jet where the sword made out of rumble rock is.

"OK, time to finish the job I came here to do!"

Kage, while flying, grabs the sheath of the blade. Instantly, Kage's body starts to shake from the rumble rock that the sword is made out of. This shaking throughout Kage's body increases the difficulty of pulling the sword.

"Everything is shaking! I need to pull this out quickly before something in my body gets knocked out of place."

Kage grips the sword as hard as possible and uses energy jet to pull his body away from the jet.

"Why is this thing so deep?"

The sword slips out little by little.

"Yes!"

Kage completely removes the sword from the jet, causing the jet to finally stop shaking. After pulling out the sword, Kage starts flipping out of control through the sky. Kage catches himself and throws the sword into the forest below.

"Holy shit! That was way harder than I thought it was going to be!"

Inside the jet, Mr.Mink and Selena instantly see the results of Kage's efforts.

"Mr. Mink, it seems the jet stopped shaking."

"Yeah, I already told you, Kage can do it on his own."

"Yeah, I guess you're right, Kage I—"

Selena notices something behind Mr.Mink.

"Mr.Mink Satch is getting away!"

From behind, Mr.Mink Satch is lying face-front on the ground until he regains consciousness and opens up a portal from under him.

"You annoying mind reader! I made a promise to my brothers to live no matter what, and I'll be damned if I break it now!"

Satch goes into the portal, and the portal closes immediately.

"Are you just going to let him get away, Mr.Mink?"

"He's already been defeated; there's no point in chasing him. Also, he said he has a promise to keep to his brothers, so I chose to let him keep that promise."

"That's a pretty strange way of thinking, you know?"

"A lot of people would say so, but there's too much suffering in the world already. There's no need for me to cause anymore."

"Interesting"

Outside the jet, Kage returns to the jet's hatch after completing the task given to him by Mr.Mink.

"I wonder where that dragon went; I thought it would have come down by now."

Kage opens the hatch but is out of nowhere smacked by something. This smack sends Kage spiraling off the jet toward the ground.

"What the fuck just hit me!?"

Kage looks behind him and sees that he is about to crash into the ground.

"Damn it, I'm not in a position to use energy jet! Shit, I really hope this works! Energy bounce!"

With barely any time to react, Kage enclosed himself in a ball of energy.

With him inside the ball of energy, Kage smacks the ground, but the energy ball bounces Kage up like a full-sized bouncy ball. Now in a better position, Kage gets rid of the energy ball around him and uses energy jet to levitate.

"Ok, great, I'm still alive, but what the hell hit me?"

Kage looks up and sees a blast of blue flames heading in his direction.

"Uh, not again with this shit!"

Kage dodges the flames by flying up, but when he looks at where the flames came from, he sees nothing.

"Ok, this is weird. I know I'm fighting a Draco, but I can't see him. How is that even possible, especially with how big he is?"

After Kage's statement, he remembers a few words Mr.Mink said about the sense technique.

"If you ever can't use one of your senses, you can push one of your other senses to become more powerful."

Remembering Mr. Minks's words, Kage closes his eyes, and his nose starts glowing.

"If you can't use one sense, push one to become more powerful."

As Kage uses the sense technique to increase the smelling power of his nose, an image of everything his nose smells in a sixty-mile radius pops up in his head. He can smell everything from the smallest insects to the jet that has Mr.Mink and Selena in it. He then smells a huge tail swinging toward him from behind.

"What the hell!"

Kage opens his eyes and barely dodges the attack, but gets blown away by the force of the attack. Kage uses energy jet to keep himself in the sky and then looks around but once again sees no sign of the beast.

"Okay, I officially think this thing can turn invisible, but why is this thing still on the attack? I already pulled out the sword!"

Kage senses another attack coming from the front.

"I'm ready for you this time!"

Kage flies out of the way of the invincible attack and screams.

"Energy Pillar!"

From the sky, a pillar of energy slams down on the invisible Draco.

"Raaaar!"

"I planned to use this earlier, but you decided to turn invisible, but now you can't hide!"

The Draco gets slammed into the ground by the energy pillar. The ground rumbled to the point where everyone in the forest could feel the Draco's fall. Kage flies down to where the Draco was slammed. The Draco once again became visible after sustaining significant damage.

"How do you like that, Draco? Even while invisible, you were defeated, but having to take a longer time to create an energy pillar just so I can hit you with a powerful enough attack is kind of annoying."

"Raaar!"

The Draco flies up from the crater that Kage left with his energy pillar.

"Welp, I knew this wasn't going to be easy, but damn, you're stubborn!"

The Draco looks at Kage with drool coming from his mouth and a murderous expression on all three of his faces.

"Raar!
