Chapter 55
A Strength Defining Battle
Haruto says
“You think your—'' But he’s interrupted as Kingsman punches him in the face and he tries to swing back and Haruto stumbles back and tries to punch Kingsman but Kingsman dodges his punch as he starts hitting Haruto all over his body and Haruto's eyes start blur as he starts trying to swing back but Kingsman is to fast for him to touch and Haruto stumbles backwards as he puts his hand up creating hundreds of weapons but Kingsman appears in front of him again as he grabs Haruto’s wrist
At the same time Kei has walked over and sees Kingsman holding Haruto’s wrist and he's *shocked* as he thinks
"There is no possible way Kingsman could be stronger than Lord Haruto! How strong is he!?" Suddenly Kingsman disappears and Kei is *confused* as he opens his mouth but Kingsman appears above Kei as he punches Kei in the top of his head slamming Kei deep into the ground and Kingsman has one of his foot on Kei's chest as he reaches down and grabs Kei by the face as he says
"If you hurt my son, I promise I'm going to make you suffer!" Haruto points his hand at Kingsman as he starts creating another giant ball of light but suddenly Kingsman appears in front of him again grabbing him by his wrist and Kingsman says
"Don't do that!" Haruto tries to pull his hand away but he can't as Kingsman knees him in the stomach and Kingsman swipes his legs as he grabs him by the face and slams Haruto into the ground and Kingsman says
"You've done so much to the ones I care about, now it's your turn to feel helpless!" Kingsman kicks Haruto in his stomach sending him flying back through the air and Kingsman appears behind him as he knees him in the stomach launching him into the air and Kingsman appears above him but Haruto looks up and blast a ball of light towards Kingsman and Kingsman moves his head out of the way of it as it flies into the air and Haruto *smiles* as he thinks
"Now you're finished!" Haruto opens his hand as the ball of light quickly expands becoming massive as it falls down towards Kingsman and Haruto snaps creating hundreds of weapons once again and all of the weapons start quickly flying towards Kingsman and Kingsman smacks the weapons away as they get close to him and Kingsman looks down at Haruto as he says
"How strong do you truly believe you are? More importantly how large do you believe the gap between us is? Because I can assure you" As the massive ball of light gets close Kingsman puts his hand up stopping the ball of light completely and Kingsman says
"You are not stronger!" Haruto *smiles* as he says
"You are very physically gifted, but I am simply smarter than you could ever hope to be!" Suddenly chains shoot out of the ball of light wrapping around Kingsman's entire body and hundreds of weapons pour out of the ball of light and Haruto opens his hand creating another massive ball of light and he fires it towards Kingsman and Kingsman's able to lift his other arms and stop the ball of light and Haruto flies up and stops in front of Kingsman as he says
"That's the true difference between us, you think just being strong is enough to make it. No there is much more you need to be, and everything that is needed you simply don't have it" Kingsman looks Haruto in the eyes as he says
"I'm going to kill you, I just wanted you to be aware of that. You killed one of my sons, hurt and scared my other son and brother, and you have the audacity to look me in my eyes as if we are equal" Haruto puts his hand up and slowly starts closing it and as he closes his hand the ball of light starts pushing towards each other as Haruto says
"Your sons were weak, truly your family is weak. Physically,mentally, and emotionally, all of you are lost! A wife who is solely emotionally dependent on a man who could barely control his emotion himself, multiple different sons from broken homes worse than the last! But I guess that's because that's all you truly ever know, fighting and pain! But now I'll truly give you peace!" Haruto fully closes his hands as the ball of light smash together with Kingsman in between the both of them and Haruto snaps as all of the weapons start flying through the ball of light quickly as Haruto *laughs* as he looks at Kenji and Kaito on the ground and says
"This is who you've been waiting on, your father cannot save you! Nothing will ever stop us, I told you BOY we are a force of nature!" Haruto snaps again as the two balls of light explode behind him with such force the entire planet starts violently shaking again as Haruto stands in front of the explosion *laughing* and Kenji is *shocked* and screams
"FATHER!" Haruto flies down and lands right in front of Kenji and Kaito as he reaches for Kaito neck but suddenly he's stabbed through the back and as he looks behind him he's *shocked* as he sees Kingsman standing behind him and Kingsman pushes him away and Haruto goes flying as he slams into the ground and Kingsman looks at Kenji as he says
"What did I say! Focus on your body" Kenji says
"I'm sorry, I just didn't know if you were hurt!" Kingsman crouches down as he puts his hand on Kenji face as he says
"But I know you are hurt, and I need you to get better" Kenji says
"All right, I'll focus harder!" Kingsman says
"Good, I need you to be able to move" Kingsman stands up as he turns around and sees Haruto trying to stand up but Kingsman's sword is pinning him to the ground and he grabs the sword and tries to pull it out but it doesn't budge and Haruto is *shocked* and thinks
"Why the hell is this thing so heavy!? Does he truly swing this thing around with such ease! What kind of a monster is he truly!?" But as he looks up Kingsman is standing in front of him and he points his hand at Kingsman but Kingsman crouches down and puts his hand on his sword as he says
"Do you truly believe I cannot defeat you? Do you think all of you are truly invincible?" Haruto *smiles* as he says
"We have always been unopposed, many have tried but none of them have ever pushed us far before they died" Kingsman says
"You seem very opposed right now" Haruto says
"You cannot defeat all of us, you may take one of us but you'll never take us all!" Kingsman says
"I'll dismantle all of you one by one" Haruto *laughs* as he says
"After all the years I thought you would have learned from your father's mistakes" Kingsman pulls his sword out of Haruto stomach as he *screams in pain* and Kingsman grabs Haruto by the face slamming him into the ground as he stabs his sword back into Haruto's stomach and Haruto screams are muffled by Kingsman's hand as he pulls his sword out of Haruto's stomach and Kingsman lifts the sword above his head but he suddenly hears Akita's voice calling to him and as he turns around he sees himself back on top of the water fall and as he looks down he sees Akita at his feet as she looks up at him and says
"Please don't kill anyone because of me!" Kingsman drops his sword as he drops down to his knees *holding his head in pain* as his darkness starts wildly surging all across him and Haruto holds his wounds as he slowly gets to his feet and he creates a sword made out of light and he swings towards Kingsman but suddenly his entire body is overwhelmed with fear and Haruto quickly flies back as his heart starts rapidly beating and Haruto is *panicked* as he thinks
"He would have killed me if I had followed through with the strike!" Kingsman *screams in anger* as he punches the ground creating a giant crater in the ground as Kenji is *shocked* and says
"No, dad control yourself! You're stronger than your darkness, you have to fight!" Kingsman slowly gets to his feet as he's still holding his head but suddenly he disappears and Haruto thinks
"Damn it if I want to get out of this alive I'll have to-" Haruto is *shocked* as Kingsman appears in front of him and reaches for his neck but Kingsman grabs his hand stopping himself from grabbing Haruto's neck and Kingsman struggles as he says
"NO! I...Need to...Control myself!" Kingsman drops down to one knee as his darkness stops surging and slowly fades from around him as Kingsman is looking at the ground and he slowly gets to his feet as he thinks
"NO! I wasn't fast enough!" Haruto flies back and thinks
“I couldn’t even see him move, I knew he was a monster but–” Suddenly a man appears next to him with his hands behind his back and Haruto is *shocked* as he says
"Jiro!" Jiro looks down at Kingsman as he says
"Congratulations Haruto, you now have Lord Jushiro's undivided attention. So I strongly advise you put on a show" Haruto turns and looks higher into the air and sees four men standing in the air and Jiro looks at Haruto and says
"Haruto!" Haruto quickly looks back at Jiro as Jiro says
“Good luck” And Jiro appears next to the rest of the members of the Golden Order and Haruto starts *shaking with fear* as he thinks
“Damn it, Lord Jushiro is here. If I don’t impress him I’m going to die, but if I go near him i'm going to die…Damn it I have to impress Lord Jushiro no matter what!” Haruto appears behind Kingsman and tries to punch him but his fist stops as he can’t reach him and Haruto is *confused* until he looks down and realizes Kingsman hasn’t turn around but he's kicked him through the chest and Haruto spits up blood as Kingsman rips his foot out of Haruto’s chest and he slams his foot back on the ground as Haruto falls to the floor and he *screams in pain* and starts *coughing up blood* until Kingsman turns around and kneels down beside him and uses
“Reversion” Reverting the damage in Haruto chest as he looks into Haruto's eyes and says
“Even though you killed her I made her a promise” But Kingsman punches his head smashing him into the ground and says
“I’ll just make you wish for it” Kingsman starts hitting him relentlessly pushing him deeper and deeper into the ground creating a hole underneath him until Haruto *screams in pain* and The Man in front of all the Golden Order, says
“Makoto” Makoto floats next to The Man as he says
“Yes my lord” Jushiro says
“Jiro” Jiro *sighs* as he says
“Would you like us to save him, Lord Jushiro?” Jushiro says
“I would like to be the one who decides his punishment” Jiro says
“Of course my lord” Jiro and Makoto float down to the hole and Makoto looks down into the hole as he says
“Get him up here!” Jiro looks at Jushiro and says
“My lord, how much do you really want to punish him?” Jushiro says
“Now!” Jiro says
“Of course my lord, Makoto will get on that” Makoto *groans in anger* but he drops down into the hole and as he’s falling he claps his hands but there so much force it generates a deafening force making Kingsman *holds his ears in pain* and Makoto floats above Kingsman as he grabs Kingsman by the back of his shirt and throws him out of the hole but as Kingsman flies out of the hole Jiro kicks Kingsman in his side sending him flying as Makoto grabs Haruto by the throat and throws him out of the hole and Makoto flies out and looks at Haruto as he says

"Sit down as I finish what you couldn't" Haruto steps up to Makoto as he says
"I-" But Makoto punches him in the stomach making him fall back onto the ground and Makoto says
"Sit!" Makoto turns around and looks at Kingsman as he *smiles* and says
“It’s time to continue our fight!” Jushiro says
“Continue what fight?” Jiro whispers
“Be quiet, do you want to be killed!?” But Jiro turns and looks up at Jushiro as he says
“He means start there fight my Lord” Makoto looks at Jushiro as he says
“Yes I apologize my Lord, I meant start our fight!” Jushiro says
“Hurry up and finish this, I don’t like being around these mortals” Makoto says
“As you wish my lord” Makoto rushes Kingsman and they clash fist and Makoto *smiles* as he whispers
"I'm glad you haven't gotten soft after all this time" Kingsman *smiles* as he says
"So now I have to fight another false god!" Makoto *laughs* as he says
"You bastard!" Makoto grabs Kingsman wrist as he pulls Kingsman in and punches Kingsman in the stomach sending him flying back and slamming him into the ground but there's so much force he's dragged back through the ground and Kenji is *shocked* as Kingsman doesn't stand up and Kenji thinks
"Is this it!? Has my father truly found someone he can't beat!" Kaito eyes slowly open and he sees Kingsman on the ground unmoving as Makoto slowly walks toward him *smiling* and Kaito tries to pull himself up but he fall back to the ground holding his chest and Kingsman slowly gets back to his feet and touches his face but Kingsman starts *uncontrollably laughing* and Kingsman says
“I know you, your power,striking speed, fight style, we’ve fought before…And now everything about you has truly come rushing back!" That’s who you are, your the one who can’t swim!” Makoto rushes Kingsman and punches him in the stomach and Kingsman is launched back but Kingsman stays on his feet as he stops himself from flying back and Kingsman *laughs* as he says
"Is that it! Is this all you have to offer! Our first battle was fun but if this is all you have then we won't be here long!" Makoto *laughs* as he says
"Killing you is going to be fun!" Kingsman *smiles* as he says
“You can’t! But I always welcome every challenge” They rushes each other and start trading blows until Kingsman catches his hands and headbutts Makoto but Makoto doesn’t react and Kingsman trips Makoto as he slams him into the ground and Kingsman steps back and thinks
“This is the most I’ve been pushed in a while, I should have spent those extra years after she died training, but I just…Never mind, I don’t regret any of my decisions” Kingsman says
“How long can you keep this up!?” Makoto stands up as he says
“I can go forever, but let me tell you something before we continue–” Kingsman says
“Your body is almost perfectly resistant to physical damage!” Makoto is *shocked* as he says
“What!?” Kingsman says
“If we had met in another year, your body would be fully resistant to all physical damage. But you allowed yourself to get lazy and stop mastering your body and abilities” Makoto says
“I should have known you would know everything about me, but even in my imperfect state I can still kill you” Kingsman says
“You can’t, but I can kill you” Kingsman rushes Makoto and hits him all over his body but he doesn’t move and Kingsman grabs him by the throat but Makoto *laughs* and says
“Pathetic!” But as he raises his fist, Kingsman opens his hand creating a dome of water around his head and Makoto falls to the ground and attempts to punch the dome but his hand gets stuck and then the entire dome spreads around his entire body and Kingsman grabs him and throws him into the air and creates a giant dome of water trapping Makoto in the middle of it and Makoto starts punching at the water creating air holes in it but Kingsman puts his hand up and uses
“Loop” Everytime Makoto creates an air hole it’s immediately seals and Haruto stands up and launches weapons at the dome but every hole the weapons make it’s immediately sealed and crushed under the weight of the water and Jiro walks under the dome and jumps up as he takes one of his hands from behind his back but as he touches the dome it immediately disappears as Jiro kicks him out of the way and the dome reseals around Jiro and Makoto lands on the ground and *coughs up water* as he says
“You cheap bastard!” But as Makoto stands up Kingsman rushes up to him and hits him all over his body and Makoto says
“I just told you that does nothing!” Makoto tries to punch Kingsman but he realizes he can’t lift his arm and Makoto tries to move but he can't and Kingsman says
“I never hit someone for no reason, we’re done here” Makoto is *shocked* as he says
"What did you do to me!?" Kingsman *smiles* as he says
"Just because your extremely resistance doesn't mean your internal body isn't the same, you've simply never fought someone with IQ like me. I've damaged certain pressure points all over your body to the point you can't even bend a finger if you wanted to, I could have destroyed them all but I actually enjoy fighting you!" Kingsman turns around as he looks into the air and watches as Jiro reaches his hand out destroying the dome again and Jiro drops onto the ground as he looks at Kingsman and Kingsman says
“And now we’re onto you Jiro, would you like me to tell you your secrets?” Jiro walks towards Kingsman but Kingsman jumps back as Jiro gets close and Jiro *chuckles* as he says
“You may truly be smarter than you look!” Kingsman says
“And your weaker than you look, but because of that ability your a bit more dangerous than I’d like to admit” Jiro *smiles* as he says
“I’m flattered” Jiro rushes Kingsman and Jiro attempts to kick Kingsman but Kingsman is able to block all of Jiro’s kicks and says
“You are actually a good fighter for someone who doesn’t use his hands” Jiro says
“Humor me if you would, how do you know everything about everyone you face?” Kingsman says
“Your shadows spoke to me and I’ve been able to seen all of your abilities, and even your planets curse” Jiro is *shocked* as he hears this and takes one of his hands from behind his back and reaches a finger out to touch Kingsman but Kingsman catches his wrist and *smiles* as he says
“Why are you getting so serious all of a sudden!” Jiro says
“I cannot let my secret be revealed” Jiro pulls his hand away and tries to touch him but Kingsman is able to dodge all of his strikes without being touched but Kingsman screams
“NO!” As Itsuki rushes up and tries to slash Jiro but Jiro leans out of the way of Itsuki's slash and he reaches for Itsuki but Kingsman elbows Itsuki out of the way and Jiro’s finger grazes Kingsman's left arm and Kingsman's left arm immediately goes limp and Kingsman steps back holding his left arm as he looks at Itsuki and says
“Stop, not him! He’s too dangerous” Itsuki is *shocked* and he walks up to Kingsman as he says
“I’m sorry Sensei, I was trying to help you!” Kingsman says
“I understand, but this opponent is too dangerous. You’ve never fought someone you can’t clash with but a single touch from his finger will kill all the nerves inside of your body. I’m lucky his entire finger didn’t land on me” Itsuki says
“That’s fine I can keep range and cover your back” Kingsman says
“No, I want you to be ready to leave with the boy and Kaito” Itsuki says
“Dad, I won’t abandon you!” Kingsman says
“You're not abandoning me, I’m giving you an order. I’m counting on you Itsuki, I’ll need you to take my place as the boy’s Sensei. Make sure he continues to get strong and you as well” Itsuki is *shocked* as he says
“I don’t know if I can be as good as you Sensei” Kingsman says
“No one is as good as me…So I want you to be better than me! Become stronger than me, promise me you’ll become the strongest and help Kenji get stronger as well” Itsuki says
“I promise you I won’t fail you Sensei!” Kingsman says
“I know you won't, now go help your brother” Itsuki runs over to Kenji and helps him up as Kingsman looks at Jiro and says
“Shall we continue?” Jiro says
“Can you continue?” Kingsman *laughs* as he says
“Always, you think some as weak as you could keep me down” Kingsman and Jiro rush each other and Jiro tries to touch Kingsman but Kingsman covers his shoulder in darkness and uses his dead arm to block the touch as he headbutts Jiro making him stumble back and he punches Jiro launching him but as he tries to chase him he realizes he can’t move and as he looks down he sees Makoto holding onto his ankle and Kingsman thinks
"Damn it I knew his body would heal, but it's far faster than I expected!" Kingsman lifts his foot in the air and stomps Makoto on the top of his head slamming in into the ground but Makoto's grip doesn't loosen and Kingsman starts repeatedly slamming his foot into the top of Makoto head until his foot covers in his darkness but suddenly he hears Akita voice echoing through his mind as she says
"Please don't kill anyone because of me!" As Kingsman's darkness starts surging more violent then ever before as Makoto is launched back and hundreds of voices start screaming as they're echoing through Kingsman's mind and he *screams in pain* but one voices cuts through all of them as Kingsman recognizes the voice from inside of his father's sword as it says
“Let me out and I can make all the pain go away. No more flashbacks, no more haunting images of your Brothers,Friends,Father, Mother, or even Her. You will be haunted by your failures no more, just simply release me!” Kingsman reaches his hand out as a portal of darkness opens up and his father's sword falls through it onto the ground and as Kingsman looks at the blade the voice says
“I promise I’ll fix everything” But as Kingsman reaches for the sword the voice get louder making him clutch his head harder and Jiro looks at Kingsman as he thinks
“I don’t know what the hell is wrong with you, but I don’t have time to wait” and Jiro fires a giant ball of light at him but Kingsman doesn’t move as hundreds of silhouette run around in front of him and Kingsman starts hyperventilating as the voices get louder until he feels a hand touch his back and he hears Akita's voice say
"I'll always be with you, I love you!" As two more hands touch Kingsman's back and Kingsman calms his breathing as all of the silhouettes disappear and he notices the giant ball of light flying towards him as Kenji is in front of him but Kingsman grabs him by the back of his neck and throws him out of the way and he uses his right hand to ball up his left fist as he uses his right hand to lift his left arm and punch the giant ball of light and it explodes knocking everyone back and kicking up smoke everywhere and Kingsman is on one knee as he looks at Kenji and says
“Boy, don’t ever try that again!” Kenji looks up and is *shocked* as he says
“Father, Your arm!” Kingsman looks down and sees his left arm is gone but he looks back at Kenji and *smiles* as he says
“It's fine, I couldn’t use it anyways” Kenji slowly gets to his feet as he *holds his stomach in pain* and Kenji looks at Jiro but Kingsman *chuckles* as he says
“I can’t try and beat around the bush any longer, I’m going to die in this battle” Itsuki is *shocked* as he gets to his feet and says
“NO! Father, I can't lose you again!” Kenji says
“Father no, I won’t let you!” Kingsman says
“I’m sorry, but I know I can’t walk away from this battle. But both of you do me a favor and live on and become the best version of yourselves, you may not want to do it. But do it for me, and for your mother!” Kingsman stands up as he clenches his fist and Kenji starts tearing up and Kingsman turns around as he walks over and hugs Kenji as he look over towards Itsuki and Itsuki rushes over and hugs Kingsman as well and Kingsman says
"Itsuki, Kenji I'm so proud of both of you! Both of you have exceeded my expectations and have become stronger than I could ever imagine, but now I must ask you both to take on a heavy burden. Take care of your sister and uncle for me, but most importantly take care of yourselves. Watch each other, help each other! Your brother and that truly should mean something to both of you" Itsuki starts *tearing up* as he says
"Father...Can we please run!?" Kingsman *smiles* as he says
"Unfortunately, I cannot break our one rule as warriors. Honestly even if I wanted to I cannot run from a fight no matter how bad it gets. It’s just not my nature” Kenji *cries* as he says
"Then can we please fight together!?" Kingsman says
"Had I not been so late we could have, but the both of you have been through extremely hard battles. If you were to join this fight the two of you would be killed, and I simply cannot allow that. But now it's time for both of you to go" Itsuki and Kenji both tightly hug Kingsman as they cry into his chest and Kingsman looks over at Kaito as he notices his eye is only half open and Kaito thinks
"Brother, I'm sorry I couldn't help you in this battle! I should have done more for all of you" But Kingsman *smiles* at Kaito and Kaito *chuckles* as he thinks
"Damn you, here I am about to watch you die and you could careless" Kaito sheds a tear as Kingsman looks down at Kenji and Itsuki as he says
"The two of you need to let go and walk away before you get hurt!" Itsuki wipes his eyes as he steps back and says
"Alright father, we just need to find Da-" But Itsuki is *shocked* as he sees Dai laying dead on the ground and Itsuki drops to his knees and *breaks down in tears* as Kingsman says
“I know you're hurt right now Itsuki, but focus on your survival. I know it’s hard to not feel the pain right now, but you must not let the pain consume you right now. Itsuki, DO NOT FALL!” Itsuki whips his tears as he slowly stands up and says
“Yes…Sensei” Kingsman turns around and says
“I hope I don’t see either one of you where I’m going. MY SONS, I LOVE YOU BOTH! Now go!" Kenji and Itsuki both rush over to Kaito as Kingsman lock eyes with Jiro
