Two days later, on a bright morning, explosions of energy tore through the forest and blasted trees apart. Kito was running and dodging purple beams of energy that were sent flying at him, while Kazuma was chasing after him as he was creating and shooting arrows of purple energy. Kazuma exclaimed with excitement "Come on, Kito! You can do better than that.", he charged up an even more powerful amount of energy and shot it at Kito who was running and dodging for his life. Kito thought to himself with a face of excitement and difficulty "Goddammit, Kazuma!". He turned back only too see a beam heading his way, Kito's eyes widened as he proceeded to dodge the beam that layed waste to another set of trees "What the fuck?!", he exclaimed with shock. Kazuma on the other hand had a deranged smile on his face, he started to charge up energy all over his body, Kito immediately spotted him doing this "NOT GOOD!", he freaked out in his mind. Kazuma blitzed himself all the way to Kito with a terrifying burst of energy, Kito gritted his teeth "FUCK!", before Kazuma blitzed him through trees. As Kito was being blitzed accross trees, he thought to himself "Damn it! I called Kazuma over to help spar with me for some training, but he's taking this a little too far.". As Kazuma and Kito were up in trees length, Kazuma created shurikens of energy "ALRIGHT, KITO! HERE COMES ANOTHER ONE!", he said out with excitement before blasting multiple spiritual shurikens at Kito. Kito was immediately stunned by this "ARE YOU KIDDING ME?!", he said out with shock before dodging and doing backflips from on trees In order to dodge Kazuma's attacks. Each spiritual shuriken was blasting everything apart, the trees Kito was using as support to weave and dodge were also being blasted apart. Kito was seconds away from losing his footing due to how the spiritual shurikens would always detonate on trees seconds after Kito had dodged. Kito thought to himself "Kazuma's attacks are insanely fast. Not just that, but his energy reserves are dangerously high. He's the kind of guy who knows his strength and doesn't underestimate himself nor others. He's also analytical and has insane battle IQ. Out of all our friends, he's the only one I can actually call to spar with me and make me feel like I'm on an actual mission.". Before Kito knew it, Kazuma was already above him with his fists filled with energy and ready to bash him into the ground. Kito was stunned "FUCK!", he exclaimed again as he stretched his hand to block. Tree's scattered apart as soon as Kazuma landed that devastating blow, as the dusts settled, Kito was seen on the floor. He had dust all over his body, and he also had a defeated look on his face "What a pain. We just started training 30 minutes ago, and now I'm on the floor?". Kazuma jumped down to help him "You okay? Sorry I went too far.", Kito grabbed Kazuma on the arm and pushed himself up "Nah, I'm fine.", he bent his back a bit and stretched his arms up. Kazuma blinked and told Kito "Kito, you seem to have changed a bit.", Kito looked at Kazuma with an eye "Huh? What do you mean?", he asked. Kazuma then explained "I don't know, it's like you feel lighter and much more in a good mood.", Kito yawned "Oh? Really? I guess that's good. Well, I'm not really in the mood to train that much today, I still want to chill around.", Kazuma responded "Me too.". Both Kazuma and Kito walked out of the forest, as they got to the city which seemed a bit more lively than the previous quiet days. Kazuma looked around "Compared to Tuesday and Wednesday, today's a bit more lively.", Kito responded lazily "I actually preferred if today was like the last two quiet days. Honestly, everywhere feels rough.", Kazuma just laughed softly "Yeah, I feel you.". Kito looked at the sky "Although, I actually don't mind things being this lively now.", Kazuma turned to him and asked "What did you say?", Kito just smirked softly "Nothing, don't worry.". Kazuma then asked "Hey, Kito. Have you heard from anyone?", Kito responded "Nope, the only person i can say I've heard from was Baroka. I haven't spoken with him since the elimination rounds.". Kito then asked "So? How was your gladiator rounds? Who did you fight?", Kazuma scoffed with a smug smirk "Hm, you wouldn't believe if I told you. I fought White.", Kito pasued for a moment "Seriously?", Kazuma replied "Yep. You should have seen the way I beat him. He felt like he had won the fight, so I broke both his arms, knocked him out on the head and made him dodge for his life. He could barely keep up until later.". Kito smirked a little "Looks like you had the fight of a life time.", Kazuma just smirked "You have no idea.". Kazuma then proceeded to tell Kito "Well, if you want to watch the fight, you can go online and search it up.", Kito sighed and responded "Nah, I'm not in the mood to watch that. I just want to use the time I have to enjoy myself before we go on missions again.", Kazuma replied "Fair point.". As Kazuma and Kito kept walking, Kazuma then asked "Hey, you wanna see Yuji?", Kito thought for a moment before responding "Sure, I'm not doing anything right now.". A few moments later, someone knocked at Yuji's door, Yuji walked towards it "I'm coming, I'm coming. Who is it?", he asked. Yuji opened the door and saw Kito and Kazuma "Yo, Yuji. Your best friend has decided to grace you with his presence.", Kazuma said playfully. Yuji's facial expression didn't shift "First of all, fuck you Kazuma. Second of all, hey Kito.", Kito replied "Hey, Yuji.". Kazuma then asked with slight surprise "Why you say fuck me for?!", Yuji replied "For being Kazuma.". Kito teased him with a smirk "He's got a point, Kazuma.", Kazuma groaned lazily "Aw, come on!".
