In 1876. The era of cowboys and outlaws was still active. They roamed around. Some were pure evil. While the others were kind at heart.
Some were old.. while the others were young.
They spent their time.. travelling on their horses.
Journeys, fights, robberies. All of it.
Some were born into a cowboy family.
Some became by their choice.
And some others were motivated by others to become.
Among those who were motivated by someone else to become outlaws.. was one young boy.
"I'm ready.. Uncle Ryu."
Dusty enters the battlefield. Wearing his cowboy hat and putting a hand on his revolver.
"Arturo De Luca is the name. A former cowboy. Now working under Lord Emmanuel."
Dusty: "A former cowboy, huh? Changed your name?"
Arturo: "No. I was born Italian.. with this name.
Became an outlaw when I went to America."
Dusty: "I see.."
They both do a quickdraw with their revolvers but dodge each other.
Dusty smiles.
And starts running in a circular motion, all around Arturo.
"He's running around.. Weakening my aim. I can't keep up!"
Dusty suddenly stops and shoots.
Arturo tries to dodge.. The bullet hits his leg.
"Ugghhhh.. Well, at least that didn't hit somewhere very serious."
Dusty closes the distance and lifts his leg to kick Arturo's chin.
Vasilisa: "That's my man!"
Ryujiro: "When I fought him. I knew that he's so good. But here.. he's even better. Was he holding back in front of me? Well, like I wasn't.
But he's actually so good at fighting."
Dusty makes Arturo fall down and kicks his face repeatedly.
"That's how you kicked me back in Texas, big brother. Next, I'm coming for you!"
Arturo stops Dusty's leg and slams him down on the ground.
Arturo sits on Dusty's chest and punches his face continuously.
Dusty grabs Arturo's collars and gives him a headbutt.
Arturo backs off and Dusty stands up, taking out his revolver again.
He shoots Arturo's chest.
Arturo: "Am I.. gonna die?"
Victor: "Damn it! We're not sure if he'll be able to continue.. has he lost the fight?
Doctors! Check!"
The two doctors under Victor interfere the fight and check Arturo.
"He.. Lord Emmanuel. Arturo De Luca is safe!"
Arturo pushes them away and stands up in pain.
"That's more than enough."
He takes out his revolver and shoots at Dusty but misses.
It was when Dusty's guardian and Vasilisa's parents moved to the USA from mexico.
Dusty was 7 years old.
They started living in Texas. While playing with sand one time. A man approached Dusty.
"Hey kid. What's your name."
-"D-.. Dusty Yeldstone."
- "Hmm.. Found you, finally."
Dusty: "Who are you.. Uncle."
- "Just a wanderer.. Trying to save his family.
Ryu Kurogane is the name.
I was trying to find you. Dusty Yeldstone. It's been 7 years since I fell in love with an American lady. Her name is Clara.
She's.. Your elder sister."
Dusty: "But.. But I've got an elder brother! Not sister. You must've mistaken me for someone else."
Ryu: "Brother, huh.. Jonas?
Let me tell you, kid.
My wife, Clara told me that she had two brothers. Jonas and Dusty.
Clara is currently 22. Jonas is 17. And you must be 7.
Jonas is secretly convincing everyone.. Including the US Army. How? You can't know yet. Just understand that he has something special in him."
Thinks: "How do I tell him. That him.. his brother.. and Clara are from the future. And with that information, Jonas is slowly turning everyone by his side."
"Jonas is planning to take over the whole world."
Dusty: "I.. I know that thing. He came here a few days ago.."
"So you're alive, little brother. Don't worry. I won't kill you. Your life will be hell. You're weak.
Next.. I'm planning to take over the world. And that dream will come true soon. Very soon."
Ryu: "He told you, huh?
Hmm.. 7 years ago.. I had a baby. My first child. I love him so much. And I miss him.
Ryujiro Kurogane. But since he was born. I'm traveling continuously. For two main purposes.
First, was to find you. And second. Is to meet Jonas."
It took me 7 years to find you.. I wonder how my wife and my child are doing.
I had to leave them. Because Clara told me that Jonas hated some people in the east. You've heard about Samurai? Them.
And she told me that Jonas is getting trained by a legendary cowboy, Clyde Rawlins. So there's a high chance that he will gain power. And succeed.
I began my journey just after my child, Ryujiro was born. To stop Jonas.
Now.. I think I'll find him soon. Then I'll return home.
The world is strong kid.. You can't survive being a weakling. Your brother is strong. Your sister is so strong that she beats me all the time. You should become strong too. The world is cruel.
Dusty: "Uncle Ryu.. How can I be strong? Tell me please!"
Ryu: "Hmm that's an interesting question, Dusty. Well, you can become an outlaw. A cowboy. It suits you.
And to be honest. Cowboys are so cool. I like them. If you become one.. Then I bet you'll be so cool."
Dusty takes his chance and hits Arturo's eyes.
Arturo loses control. When he opens his eyes, he sees that Dusty has taken out his rifle.
Dusty hits Arturo's face with the back of the rifle.
And then shoots his shoulder. Which knocks him out.
"You've lost. I don't need to kill you."
Dusty remembers Ryu.
"Be kind. Those who are truly strong.. are kind."
"I won't kill you. Leave."
Dusty moves back to The Revoryution with a smile on his face.
Ryujiro taps his shoulder.
"That was great, piece of dust."
-"Yeah yeah."
Dusty thinks: "Ryujiro Kurogane. I know from the beginning that you're uncle Ryu's son.
But I will never tell you that of course."
Dusty Yeldstone VS Arturo De Luca.
Winner: Dusty Yeldstone.
