The people who sides Tsukasa gasps in shock. I turn to look at them and grin. They back away slightly in fear, making the grin on my face widens. I got you now~.

-A Truce-

Y/N P.O.V

I turn to look at Tsukasa and smirks. "Wanna fight?" I said. But he's not looking at me. He's looking at something in the sky. I furrow my eyebrow. I turn my head to see a paper airplane. Wait... what? Did Senku made this?

I hear a chuckle and turn my head to see Senku by the cave. He's slightly hunching, letting me know that he's the one throwing the paper airplane. Is he serious?? Wait... if Senku's the one who made it. It surely wasn't an ordinary paper airplane.

He let out a chuckle as he looks up. "This isn't a battle between science and might, Tsukasa. Might is science. It has about a hundred times the power of gunpowder. Do you know the Ancient Greek word for "power"?" He said. He smirks as he stares at Tsukasa.

"It's Dynamite" he said. My eyes widened at what he said. I turn to look at the paper airplane as it hits the branch on the tree. I cover my face as the spot where it hits explodes, sending a strong gush of wind.

"Wow..." I muttered, staring at it in amazement. I didn't expect Senku to create something so powerful in such short amount of time. I shake my head as I remember something. I turn to Ukyo who's still laying on the ground.

"Ukyo" I said. I rush towards him and kneels down. I gently turn him to lay on his back. He opens his eyes as he looks at me. "Y/N... you're bleeding" he said. He lift his hand, gently placing it on my nose. He gently wipe the blood from my nose. I shake my head and holds his hand.

"You're one to talk. You're bleeding more than I am" I said. He let out a soft chuckle. I reach inside my satchel and grab the herb paste I've made a while ago. God... the things I'd do to have a healing ability. I'm a fast healer, but I can't use it for other. If only I could, I would be able to heal Ukyo faster.

"This will do for now... at least until I'll be able to give you a proper treatment..." I said. He just smile at me. He gets up and head inside the cave. I turn my head to see what he's up to. He wraps the tip of his arrow with paper and place a few drops of the liquid Senku have made.

"Megaton? Dynamite? In this age?" One of Tsukasa's men said. "They'll never be able to hit us with paper planes, though" another joins in. "Yeah! It's all or nothing!" Another agreed. I let out a chuckle at their way of giving themselves comfort.

"We have dynamite arrows too. These are a little more accurate than paper planes" Ukyo said, as he lets out a breathless chuckles. I let out a sigh of relief, knowing Ukyo is alright. I lift my hand as the twigs surrounding us starts to float. They start to break and turns sharp.

"And you surely wouldn't want to be hit by these..." I said. They gulped in fear as they look around. "W-What's t-this??" One of them said. I just shrugs my shoulders at what he said.

"Oh this? Just a little something I have... no big deal. But it surely is deadly. It's called telekinesis" I said, in a flat tone. I end the sentence with a smirk. Their face paled even more.

"The war is over! That's it, the end!" Gen said, while clapping his hands. I turn my head to look at him, which makes him flinch. I just give him a soft smile. He blinks his eyes in surprise and smiles back at me.

I just watch in silence as Tsukasa and Senku starts to have their conversation. Senku can't use dynamite without hurting both sides. That means we're stuck.

"Which means, Senku... your objective is?" Tsukasa said. Senku nods his head at what he said. "Yeah, to negotiate, Tsukasa..." he said. Senku turns to look at Gen and start talking about how he met Tsukasa on a TV show. Gen nods his head, confirming what Senku said.

It seems that Tsukasa is trying to earn more money by being a wrestler. Which earns him the title of the Strongest Primate High Schooler. But it didn't make any sense. He could have everything he wanted with his fame. But he keeps going. In the end, Senku turn his head to look at Tsukasa with a knowing look.

"For whom? She's alive, isn't she? Your sister, I mean" he said. I turn to look at Tsukasa who just stayed silent. But there's a glint in his eyes. One that I recognize as sadness.

"We might be able to heal her... with the peripheral healing effect of reviving from petrification. It's all or nothing, but there's a chance" he said. Taiju nods his head at what he said. "That's right, Tsukasa! Even Senku's neck was healed after you broke it!" He said.

"So, as for that rejuvenation fluid..." Senku said, as he makes his way to the cave's side. He turns to look at Tsukasa with the most scummy face I've ever seen in my life. "Oh, look at that! We have all of it!" He said.

I let out a sigh and shakes my head, placing my hand on my forehead. "Senku... I'm starting to doubt that you're any different from all those scientist. You're WAY too scummy..." I said, staring at him with a serious expression. He turns to look at me and let out a laugh.

"Oh, I assure you, Y/N. I'm not like those evil people. You can trust me" he said. I just hum and crossed my arms across my chest, while still eyeing him. He turns to look at Tsukasa. Tsukasa stares at Senku with a serious look on his face.

"What are your terms?" He said, staring at Senku in the eyes with a serious expression. Senku stays silent for a few seconds. "We're offering a chance to revive your sister. In exchange, we want a truce" he said. Tsukasa eyed Senku, as he tries to decide whether or not he should trust him.

"What reason do I have to believe you?" He said, after a while. Senku turn his head away from Tsukasa, and stays silent for a few seconds. He seems to be thinking what to answer to Tsukasa.

"All you have is my word. I don't lie when it comes to science. Is that not enough?" He asked, his voice is gentle as he stares at Tsukasa. I turn to look at Tsukasa.

Tsukasa closes his eyes as he seem to consider what Senku had said. From what I seen... he's nothing but a big brother that wanted his sister to be healthy again. Even in his mind, I can hear his thought. He just wants his little sister back. He opens his eyes. I can see a glint of hope in his eyes. "No... it's plenty...

That's plenty...
