Chapter 51 - Spotlight is on you.

Before Tomo could even think the Jocks rushed him! Tomo jumped out of the way, but Jock2 was already waiting for him and punched him in the ribs on sent Tomo rolling! Tomo bounced back up and was immediately met with a hard right to his face! Tomo stumbled then he got kicked in the stomach then punched in the face then Jock 2 pushed his head down into an uppercut! Tomo was bleeding but did not fall down.

"I need to do something..." Tomo snapped to himself as he got punched in the side.

"I need to let go of my rules in my head..." Then a punched to his stomach.

"I need to kill..."

"I need to win..."

"I can't lose to these guys..."

"Win! Win! WIN!!" Suddenly Tomo grabbed one of Jock's 2, balls and squeezed! This stopped Jock 2 in his tracks, then he got close and bit a big chunk of meat out of Jock 2 shoulder!

"You get any closer and I'll squeeze his balls until they pop." Tomo looked at Jock 3 with blood around his mouth and dead eyes.

"You cheap bastard!" Jock 3 fumed.

Tomo just smiled then pulled out a kunai and stabbed Jock 2 in the side then got behind him as Tomo kicked hit to the knees and pulled the kunai out of his side he held it up to Jock 2 neck.

"You crazy idiot stop!!" Jock 2 shivered.

"Does it hurt to see something happen right in front of you but you can't do anything? I know that feeling really well." Tomo said as he stabbed Jock 2 in his already hurt shoulder.

"AAARGH!! I'M SORRY!! PLEASE STOP!!" Jock 2 cried out in pain.

"...Ugh." Tomo couldn't bring himself to keep hurting somebody that was already crying stop. He chopped Jock2 in the back of the neck and knocked him out then stepped over his body.

"Now it's just a one on one," Tomo's eye pierced Jock3 like a knife.

Jock3 looked too pissed to even respond.

"AAAAH!!" Jock3 rushed at Tomo and punched him in the face then swept his feet and tripped Tomo and got on top of Tomo and started punching Tomo's already bloody face. Then Tomo out of nowhere jammed his kunai right into Jock3 hand then made is Kunai burst into flames from the inside of the jock's arm! I guess you could say his blood is boiling! ...I'm sorry. Anyway Jock3 yelled in pain then Tomo punched Jock 3 in his face with his Lightning covered fist then rolled over on top of Jock 3 and sat on his chest then punched him in the face until his face was completely covered in blood! Then Tomo pulled his Kunai out of Jock3 burnt hand and arm and raised it to his throat.

Everything went silent a felt like the sun was a little brighter in these moments. But Tomo knew he still had one more thing to say.

"...I forgive you..." Tomo's light in his eyes returned.

"OH!! THIS INCREDIBLE! THE ONCE WEAKEST PERSON IN THE SCHOOL TOMO!! HAS WON!!!" The crowd roared.

Tomo stood up and stumbled and just as he was about to fall Nichi was right there to catch him on his back. Then he carried him back into the room.

"You fought hard. Good job." Nichi smiled.

"Thank's..." Tomo faintly smiled.

It was nice and warm on Nichi's back. there was soothing about it. "Now I know why She likes it on his back so much." Tomo calmly thought to himself as he passed out.

When Nichi got back in the room he laid Tomo on the couch.

"Alright! They pulling some dirty shit! This isn't fair!" Sasha burst as she looked at Tomo's body.

"Yeah, this is messed up." Kiken backed her up.

"THE NEXT MATCH!!! IS! NICHI! VS SCELOW AND PILCO!!"

"It's time to turn up." Nichi cracked his knuckles and walked out.

The other 2 walked out right after.

"READY!? SE-"

"STOP!!!" Nichi interrupted the announcer.

"Y'all testing my gangster today! Look it should be 2 on 2! Why isn't anybody calling out this cheating bullshit!" Nichi argued.

Everybody in the crowd got to talking with each other.

"Better yet it should be 1 on 1! We should just have to fight 2 fights! Why the hell are we fighting 2 on 1! I'LL MAKE A BET! IF I WIN THIS MATCH WITHOUT USING ANY IRACUJ OR MY HANDS! YOU HAVE TO CHANGE WHAT IS HAPPENING TO ONE OF THE 2 THINGS I JUST SAID!!" Nichi commanded overlapped everybody.

"I JUST GOT WORD THAT NICHI'S PROPOSAL HAS BEEN ACCEPTED!!" The announcer shouted.

"That was easy." Nichi smiled.

"NOW! IT"S TIME! READY SET FIGHT!!!"

"You really think you can beat us with those handicaps!?" Pilco laughs cocky.

"Yeah." Nichi gave a confined smile. Then he started walking toward them then suddenly disappeared. Then was right behind them.

"You guys are really slow." Nichi smiled from right behind them.

"How did he-!?" Pilco thought was cut off with a foot going right into his back making him cough up blood and sent him flying all the way into the wall of the arena.

Then he looked at Scelow and fear got to him and he attacks sloppy, Nichi causally stepped to the side then tripped him the stomped his head into the ground.

"Welp, that was easy." Nichi yawned.

"THE WINNER IS NICHI!!"

Nichi walked out of the arena with a happy look.

"Welp problem solved. It's going to be fair from now on." Nichi chirped as he walked back into the room.

"...How strong are you?" Kiken asked putting his finger in Nichi's face.

"Why are you mad? I helped?" Nichi shrugged his shoulder.

"I'm not I just don't get it! You did that with no effort!"

"Looks like you hating." Nichi looked smug.

"Naw but really. Hatsu. We are going to have to try when we get to the SS ranks. It could be dangerous to let our guard down." Nichi declared.

"I already know." Hatsu nodded.

"So SS rank will be trouble for you guys? Yeah, we're not making that far." Kiken looked at Hoshi, Subete, and Sasha and a gloomy face.

"Your goal was to get B rank. All of you guys are going to do it. Hoshi, go full speed. With how powerful your punches are plus your speed. They won't be able to hold you. Sasha stays back and think about your moves. When you see an opening strike." Nichi explained.

"Right!"

"ALRIGHT, THE RULES HAVE CHANGED!! IT WILL NOW B 2 ON 2! NEXT MATCH WILL BE HOSHI AND SASHA VS TOLM AND GILE!!"

"Let's go kick some ass!" Sasha patting Hoshi on the back.

"Yeah!" Hoshi nodded confidently cute

Hoshi and Sasha walked out and the other 2 came out as well.

"ALL FIGHTERS READY!?" FIGHT!"

"Full speed..." Hoshi got ready then rushed at Tolm! Tolm was barely able to block. And even when he did his arms still screamed in pain! Hoshi quickly landed 3 more punches on the same arm in the same spot and cracked it! Gile then punched her in the side but Sasha was right there to send a counter attack right to his ribs then and left hook to the back of the head! Tolm kicked her and made Sasha slide away on her feet then Sasha sent a lightning blot at Gile and Gile barely dodge than it almost hit Tolm but he dodged! But Tolm couldn't dodge away from Sasha who sent a punch right into his back and he spits up blood then she pushes him into Gile to defend herself then Sasha fired a fireball into both of them and Gile put up a barrier that stopped the fireball but then Hoshi punched the barrier and broke it! And Sasha was already sending 10 more fireballs that were a direct hit! The Hoshi sent a punch to Tolm back again then glided behind Gile and punched him in the back and they fell on each other!

"B TEAM IS DOWN!! HOSHI AND SASHA WIN!!"

"Ha! They destroyed them!" Kiken exulted as he jumps excitedly.

"Some 3d girls are cool." Subete smiled and nodded.

"Because Hoshi lost that weight she was able to glide around with ease. She way faster than I thought. She might able to get to A rank." Nichi smiled and thought to himself.

"Looks like me and you are thinking the same thing." Hatsu smiled at Nichi.

"She can do it." Nichi smiled big.

Sasha and Hoshi came back into the room.

"You guys killed it out there!" Kiken said as they came back in.

"We know." Sasha's ego was growing.

"Thank you." Hoshi bowed a little.

"They had weapons. You guys never gave them time to pull them out. Good job." Hatsu gave them a thumbs up.

"NEXT ROUND!! HATSU AND NICHI VS LOPE AND SOOLU!! W-WAIT! SO APPARENTLY THE B TEAM QUIT! F CLASS MOVES ON TO A RANK!!"

"Yeah...I would had done the same thing." Kiken said with a sympathy grin.

"Yeah, that would have terrible for them," Tomo chuckled, waking up.

"Good thing you woke up. A rank about to start." Kiken said.

"He's been awake. He was just resting." Nichi explained.

"Oh."

"I'm ready to punch somebody in the face." Nichi punched his fist together.

"FOR THE NEXT MATCH-UP! WE HAVE NICHI! VS CARLIE!!"

"Oh hell yeah." Tomo had a devilish smile.

"I wanted Tomo to fight her. But I guess I'll beat her." Nichi thought to himself then walked out.

As Nichi stepped out onto the arena. Carlie walked out as well.

"ARE BOTH FIGHTERS READY!? FIGHT!"

"I'm not as weak as the Jocks. I'm at least 10 times stronger than them." Carlie had a smile that made Nichi want to punch her.

"Oh no, I'm so scared..." Nichi sarcastically said.

"I'll show you!" Carlie pulled out a sword. The handle of it had a weird smell.

"Shut up." Nichi suddenly had her by the neck in the air.

"I don't like when people touch things I care about." Nichi's aura started drowning Carlie in fear.

"Let's let you suffer." Nichi put her in an illusion that made her go through what Kiken and Tomo went through. Thousand of times over with each time the fear and pain getting worse.

Then after 5 minutes, he let her out.

"HHHAAAGH!!" Carlie screamed!

"How was your trip?" Nichi asked with a smile.

"I-I'm sorry...Please stop..." Tears ran down Carlie's face.

"Don't say you're sorry to me. Say it to him. Tomo." Nichi squeezed her neck harder.

"I-I'm sorry Tomo! I'm so sorry!" Carlie struggled to talk with her throat being crushed.

"I forgive you." Tomo smiled from in the room. He was satisfied with the way things turned out.

"See. Not being a bitch makes life so much better. Now this one is for getting on my fucking nerves." Nichi threw her to the ground. But then she looked down and her clothes were gone!

"Give up or do you want me to beat yo ass while you naked." Nichi smiled like a demon and cracked his knuckles.

"I-I forfeit!" Carlie yelled while running away.

"Damn she smelt fishy. Welp time to go wash my hands." Nichi walked off as the announcer yelled Nichi won.

"He must be in a good mood. He could have done so much worse." Hatsu yawned.

"I don't think she deserved more than what she got," Hoshi smiled cricked.

"Yo. You guys enjoy?" Nichi asked Tomo and Kiken as he came back in.

"I was amazing." Tomo smiled.

"The clothes part was amazing." Kiken had a bloody nose with a smile.

"That's the closest you're going to get to getting a girl naked," Sasha said slapping Kiken in the back of the head.

"My pride..." Kiken looked crushed.

"Alright guys, here's the deal. You guy's can quit now. Or you can go for A rank." Nichi said.

"I mind as well go for A rank," Tomo said rubbing his head.

"I'mma keep going as well," Kiken said.

"Same here." Sasha.

"I'll try my best." Hoshi

"For the waifus." Subete.

"Alright!" Nichi smiled.

Meanwhile in the A rank room.

"Sloko. Show no mercy to these lower people." Suthru said fixing his glasses.

"You shouldn't call them that. All of them used to be F rank. But they worked hard and made it this far. All of them have my respect." Sloko has yellow and black hair and yellow eyes.

"The weak got a little stronger and beat more weak. How does that earn respect?" Suthru looked at Sloko.

"Those B ranks weren't weak to them. And from what I heard. The F class would get bullied by even teachers for being weak. Instead of giving up, they did their best to be better. They get all of my respect." Sloko had a stern voice.

"But people like you. Will never get my respect." Sloko stared Suthru in the eyes.

Lusa stayed quiet. She was not strong enough to stop them.

"NEXT MATCH!!! TOMO VS! SLOKO!!"

"Look's like I'm up." Tomo hopped off the couch and walked out.

Sloko came walking out as well.

"SCREW THE DIALOG!! FIGHT!"

Sloko started out fast by shooting lightning at Tomo! Tomo barely moved his head out of the way then rushed Sloko, But Sloko fired 10 more lighting bolts! Tomo got hit by 3. Then Sloko rushed Tomo and punched him in the face with a straight right! Then a left hook to the body! Then Sloko put lightning on his fist and uppercut Tomo stomach and lifted him into the air. Then Sloko jumped and kicked Tomo sending him into the wall. Tomo spits up blood then fell to his knees.

"You are still too weak. The difference between the average B rank and A rank is 5 times. The reason why my classmate lost, was because the man she fought was strong. But I am stronger than her. I am 2nd strongest in the A class" Sloko explained while rolling his wrist.

"I'm not giving up still." Tomo stumbled to his feet.

"You are a worrier. I respect you. Because of that, I will not be holding back anymore." Suddenly huge amounts of lightning came shooting out of Sloko's arms and legs.

"God step," Sloko whispered then rushed at Tomo faster than what Tomo could see and Sloko punched Tomo into the wall and if there wasn't a barrier on it, it would have shattered! Lighting came shooting from the punch and up the wall of the barrier. Then Sloko pulled his fist away as the lightning stopped. Tomo fell to the ground barely clinging to life.

Sloko bowed then walked away.

"THE WINNER IS SLOKO!!"

"That was a blowout," Kiken had a little sweat coming down his face.

"Yeah, That was really discharging." Sasha looks nervous now.

"I was barely able to beat a B rank. My eyes may be covered but even I can see we are screwed." Subete moaned.

"...If you want me to be honest with you guys. I don't see any of you winning against an A rank...Besides Hoshi." Tomo crossed his arms.

"At least your honest." Sasha looked disappointed.

"Wait I have a chance!?" Hoshi pointed to herself with a doubtful look.

"Yeah. You are far faster and stronger than everybody except me and Hatsu. You got a chance. The rest of you...It's not looking too good." Nichi didn't hold back.

Kiken, Subete, and Sasha looked at each other, then smiled.

"We'll drop out then." Kiken looked satisfied.

"Yeah. We did what we came for." Subete went and stood by the door.

"I guess this means we have to get stronger." Sasha followed.

They all looked happy with their choice.

"We'll be cheering you guys on," Kiken said.

Nichi smiled "Ight then, see ya guys." Nichi waved.

Then they all walked out.

"Look's like it's just us 3 now. We'll fight hard." Nichi smiled.

"Hell yeah. By the way, did you guys see how well made this couch is?" Hatsu said rubbing the couch.

"I guess I wasn't paying attention. It's...nice. I guess." Hoshi tried to act interested.

"Just ignore her." Nichi tapped Hoshi on the shoulder.

"WORD JUST CAME IN THAT 3 F CLASS STUDENTS QUIT!!! NOW THERE IS ONLY 3 LEFT!! MATH!! ALSO, THE NEXT MATCH-UP IS! HATSU VS LUSA"

"I'm up first." Hatsu stopped rubbing the couch and walked out.

Lusa came out next.

"FIGHT! I'M GOING TO THE BATHROOM!"

"Random but ok," Hatsu said.

"Let's do this." Lusa fired Lightning at Hatsu trying to keep a distance. Hatsu causally stepped out of the way and walked forward. Lusa fired 4 more and Hatsu dodged without effort while walking forward.

"How is she so fast!?" Lusa looked panicked.

"You are using the same move over and over. And the way you are throwing them is super predictable. And I'm just faster." Hatsu looked bored.

"How about this!!" Lusa focused all her Iracuj in the form of lightning and shot it at Hatsu. Hatsu stood there and took the shot directly. Then Hatsu smacked it away.

"S-so strong." Lusa stood there in shock.

"My Iracuj towers over yours. You weren't going to be able to hurt me. I had to release a good amount of Iracuj in order to take that attack though. Good job." Hatsu gave her a thumbs up.

"I quit. I'm not dumb enough to keep this battle going." Lusa smiled and put her hands in the air.

"Smart." Hatsu smiled.

"JUST GOT BACK FROM THE BATHROOM BUT I GOT WORD THAT LUSA HAS LOST! HATSU IS THE WINNER!!"

Hatsu walked back to the room.

"That was cool." Hatsu laid down on the couch.

a minute later...

"NEXT MATCH UP!! HOSHI! VS SLOKO!!"

"This guy again? Must have not had a lot a people that joined the Festival in A-class." Nichi said to himself.

"You got this Hoshi. Use that training I put you through." Nichi smiled a gave her a thumbs up.

"You got this." Hatsu sat up.

Hoshi took a deep breath. "Alright, I'm going!" Hoshi walked out.

"YOU GOT THIS HOSHI!" Kiken shouted from the crowd.

She couldn't hear him though. Not because of the fear. But because of how focused she was. As the crowd roared Hoshi's eyes pierced the soul of the enemy before her like a 1 trillion degrees knife.

"FIGHT!!"

Hoshi rushed at Sloko and punched at his face, Sloko blocked then counter with a right hand to the ribs, Hoshi glided behind Sloko before the punch could get to her, and as she was about to punch him but lightning came shooting out of his back, and Hoshi got struck but she blocked her face! Sloko turned around and threw a lightning bolt at her and she just barely dodged. Then she jumped back and fired ice at him and he dodged out of the way. She fires 50 more Ice balls 3 times the size of a basketball. Sloko jumped dodged and ducked out of the way of all of them! Then he rushed at Hoshi and 360 downward jump kick, Hoshi slid to the right and fire more ice at Sloko! He jumped back and before he knew the arena was cover in ice.

"Is she trying to make it harder to dodge? It's not working." Sloko looked around.

Sloko rushed at Hoshi, Hoshi rushed at him as well. Then Sloko delivered a straight right to Hoshi's face sending her back! But then she started charging a faint fireball and it started to melt all the ice on the ground. Then she stood up with the giant fireball in her hand that was 4 times the size of Nichi.

"Fireball bragged!!" Hoshi shouted then spun the fireball and started firing little fireballs all around the arena until all the ice was melted. Sloko dodged all the fireballs. Steam covered the arena making it hard to see.

"Where are you?" Sloko huffed, on guard.

"Now!!" Hatsu shouted to herself while she was in the air. Then she threw 10 lightning bolts at the ground and the water made it spread far!

"AAGH!" Sloko yelled in pain. Hoshi heard that then threw 10 more lightning blots at that spot and it hit Sloko dead on with the bolts! Then she evaporated the water by shooting fireballs at it. Afterward, she landed and used the wind to clear the mist. Sloko was there on one knee trying to hold himself up.

"The ice wasn't to make dodging harder! It was to make water in a less obvious way than just shooting water on the ground!" Sloko grumbled to himself with a hurt look.

Hoshi fell to one knee as well.

"She used too much Iracuj! I have to strike now!" Sloko got up and ran at Hoshi and kicked her in the face and sent her flying backward! Just as Sloko was about to run forward and finish her. He fell and tumbled. When he looked at his leg it was cut open! Hoshi stood up with a kunai in her hand that was bloody.

"My teacher taught me to always have a backup plan." Hoshi's demeanor changed, she looked confident and cool-headed but still on guard. Hoshi looked like a fighter. But almost all her energy was gone.

Sloko stumbled to his feet and balanced with one leg.

"Your teacher is a wise person." blood ran down his foot.

"I'll give you the rest of what I got." Sloko smiled and lightning began shooting out of his arms and legs again.

"Then I'll do the same." A huge amount of Iracuj surrounds Hoshi.

They both looked at each other. Everybody was either standing up or on the edged of their seat. Hoshi's eyes lit up.

"WIN HOSHI!" Nichi shouted.

"AAAGU!!" Hoshi pushed forward with all her power!

"AAAAGH!!" Sloko did the same!

Then they clashed and they collided force!! Their bodies felt like they're getting torn apart. And the power shot everywhere!

"DO IT!!" Kiken!

"KICK HIS ASS!" Sasha!

"YOU GOT THIS!" Subete!

"Push forward!" Tomo!

"You got it!" Hastu!

"All or nothing!" Nichi smiled.

"I HAVE TO PUSH!!!" Hoshi gave 110%!

Then her power grew!

"I have to keep going!" Sloko tried harder. But had nobody but himself.

Then the power disbursed. Hoshi and Sloko with each other fists on each other's faces.

"Damnit," Sloko grumbled as blood came shooting out of every part of his body. Then blood came bursting out of Hoshi's arm.

Sloko smiled then fell over. The crowd screamed!

"HELL YEAH HOSHI!!" Sasha shouted from the crowd.

Hoshi stayed silent then stood straight up and looked up to the blue clear sky.

"HOSHI IS THE WINNER!!!!!!!!!!!!"

Nichi walked out onto the arena and looked at her.

"Look's like you fought so hard you passed out standing up." Nichi smiled then picked her up like a princess and walked off the arena.

When Nichi got back in the room Hatsu started healing her on the spot.

"She really gave it her all." Hatsu smiled proudly.

"She did...Now it's our turn. You ready to clap everybody in this bitch?" Nichi smiled and punched his fist together.

"Yeah." Hatsu smiled changed.
