Takemichi immediately woke up after that dream/memory 

'Have I met Shinchiro Sano before?' 

'How could I have forgotten.....forgive me Shin-san' 

'I need to confirm this first.....Haru probably knows'

——————

A week later 

Haru visited again 

"Hey Michi how you doing?" 

"I feel like shit" 

Silence was brought upon them 

"So how's Kazutora-nii?" Takemichi looks at his elder brother

"He's not doing so great, I haven't gotten an answer yet, he's probably still thinking about it" 

"I see...." 

"Then have you found Shu-kun?"

"No I have not...." 

"You'll find him at Kisaki Tetta's grave once in a while" 

"...is he Shuji's friend?" 

"Yea you could say that...." 

"I see.." 

"Hey Nii-san" 

"Hm?" 

"Did I meet Shinchiro Sano when I was a kid?" 

"..." 

"Please answer me honestly...." 

"Yes you met him...." 

"I see...then I have my next move then" 

"Oh? Is that so? And what's this plan of yours?" 

"I'll revive the Black Dragons once I get stronger" 

"I keep my promises. I'll bring the black dragons back to its glory" 

Takemichi said determined to do this 

Haru smiled at his brother 

"You better get well soon then I'm training you different fighting techniques" Haru grinned 

"Alright" 

Haru pats his head, leans down and kissed his forehead "get well soon Michi" 

"I will nii-san I'll make you and the others proud"

After the hospital visit Haru went back to the hotel he was staying in 

"I'm home" 

"Oh hey welcome back" the man in the dining table said about to eat 

"How's your brother?" Starts a small conversation 

"He said he still feels like shit" 

"Who wouldn't after what Manjiro did" 

"You know Michi told me something surprising" 

"Oh and what's that" looking up to Haru giving him a questioning look 

"He wants to revive the Black Dragons" 

The man in front of Haru spits the water he drank 

"HE WHAT!?" 

"Revive the black dragons" 

"Don't worry to much Izana, I'll train him before he goes off finding his own members" 

"I'm guessing you want me in the new generation of the Black Dragons?" 

"Yep you read me so well and that's because I want you to get closer to him" 

Izana sighed "fine...you have people in mind that you'll recommend to him that would be a great addition right?" 

"Yea I do have some people in mind" 

"Who are they?"

"Senju Kawaragi, Imaushi Wakasa, and Inui Seishu" 

"The former leader of Brahman, a 1st gen Black Dragon, and a former black member who is very loyal not bad but I'd like to add one more" 

"Oh and who's the person?" 

"Taiju Shiba"
