In Shibuya...
Baji: *huff... huff...*
Chifuyu was already knocked out by Gitaro.
Baji glanced at Chifuyu, concern etched on his face.
Gitaro: "Focus on your opponents."
Gitaro's words cut through the tension as he kicked Baji's chin, forcing him to kneel.
Baji: *(thought)* "...he's strong."
Gitaro noticed a small smile on Baji's face, a glimmer of respect amidst the chaos.
Gitaro turned to see Taiju standing behind him with a menacing look, an aura of power emanating from his frame.
Gitaro: "You scared me." *(thought)*
Taiju's eyes narrowed as he surveyed the scene, his gaze lingering on the fallen figures.
Gitaro: "Taiju Shiba, former Black Dragon president." *(thought)*
Taiju remained silent, his expression unreadable.
Gitaro: "How's your brot-"
Taiju's fist lashed out, barely dodged by Gitaro, sending shards of glass flying.
Gitaro seized the opportunity and kicked Taiju hard in the face.
Taiju staggered back, surprise crossing Gitaro's face as Taiju absorbed the blow.
Gitaro thought, "What! He didn't even feel it!?"
Gitaro: "Taiju... he's not normal." *(thought)*
Taiju suddenly moved, throwing a punch at Gitaro, which he barely dodged, the punch breaking the window of a nearby pet shop.
Gitaro thought, "That was close."
Taiju's voice cut through the din, dripping with venom as he unleashed his fury upon Gitaro.
Taiju threw punch after punch at Gitaro, who sweated profusely as he dodged each blow.
Gitaro thought, "So this is how Shibuya high-rankers fight. One punch and I could fail."
As Gitaro dodged Taiju's punches, he realized he was cornered.
Taiju said coldly, "You aren't going to run now."
Taiju threw a hard punch at Gitaro, who dodged by ducking, the impact causing the wall to break slightly.
Gitaro cursed, "Fuck! That was really close!"
Gitaro attempted a spin kick on Taiju but failed as Taiju grabbed his leg.
Gitaro wondered, "What?"
Taiju's strength was formidable as he slammed Gitaro to the ground, each blow echoing through the alley.
Gitaro groaned in pain, thinking, "That hurts."
Taiju declared, "I will crush you!"
Taiju's onslaught continued, relentless in its ferocity.
Gitaro thought, "No..."
Gitaro attempted to hit Taiju with a punch but was hit in the stomach by Taiju's punch instead.
Gitaro exclaimed, "Aaagh!"
Blood flowed from Gitaro's mouth.
Taiju demanded, "Any last words...?"
Gitaro weakly replied, "...You got me."
Taiju's retaliation was swift and brutal, sending Gitaro crashing through the shattered doorway.
