Culmination [Tokyo Revengers]

Chapter XIII - Long Time No See

As it was declared, the Kanto Manji Gang and the Tokyo Manji Gang met up at the old cargo bay, coming from different ends of the area. No conversations occur between them for the first few minutes.

"500 of Kanto Manji vs. 50 of Tokyo Manji..." Chifuyu would be lying if it said he wasn't at least a little nervous. "When you look at it that way, the difference is overwhelming." He says it out loud for Takemichi and (Y/n) to hear.

"No kidding." (Y/n) couldn't agree more. "It's like the Kanto Incident two years ago."

Takemichi hums. "Aren't we all used to this?"

(Y/n) hesitates. "We should at least come up with a strategy. Those executives are definitely the main factor in Kanto Manji's favor; if there's a certain person that each of us can focus on, before we take on Mikey himself, we might have a chance." She intends on having her other colleagues listen in her suggestion as well, not just Takemichi and Chifuyu.

"Yeah." Chifuyu reaffirms. "I'll beat up two guys...and then I'll deal with Mochi."

"I also got someone that I have to kill--" Hakkai speaks up. "The guy who crushed Taka-chan's head!"

Mitsuya feels a little embarrassed having a younger superior being protective like that. "Hey man, that should be my resentment, shouldn't it?"

Takemichi looks at Senju from the corner of his eye. "How about you, Senju? Why are those two on the other side?" He implies to her that the former members of Brahman, Wakasa and Benkei, were a part of the Kanto Manji Gang as well.

Senju has little to no idea why they chose to join Mikey. Not like she asked in the first place, given her circumstances in the aftermath. 'Waka, Benkei...what happened?'

"Hanma's there too." Smiley remarks.

(Y/n) makes eye contact with Hanma, and the fights that she already had with him replay at the back of her head. She had assumed the Kanto Incident would be the last fight, but she was more than willing to start another one; she never really was satisfied with how the previous one ended.

"They were already strong to begin with--" Peh-yan mentions. "But now they've reinforced their strength."

"That's exactly what Mikey intends to do with the Kanto Manji." (Y/n) clarifies. "The stronger the gang is, the more easier it will be for them to control all of Japan, until they're at the very top of the economic food chain." The thought of the worst possible outcome, in this case the future that Takemichi came from, makes her stomach turn in fear that she tries to contain within her.

"Do we have any chance of winning?" Peh-yan would then ask.

(Y/n) is as honest as ever. "At the moment, not even I'm certain. But we'll know when we actually fight them."

"Hey, you guys--" Mikey's voice is loud enough to gather Toman's attention, not just his own gang. "Is there a need for two Toman?" There's little to no emotion present on his face. "There's no need for that, right?"

Sanzu is right next to Mikey, snickering with gleeful look. "Got it, boss." He steps in front of the Kanto Manji Gang so that he can provoke Toman. "Hey! You idiots! Didn't the three deities battle decide who's the champion? Don't drag up the old team at this point, we're over with these kid fights!" He draws closer to his opponents. "Plus, you're a team made out of losers, you guys are obviously no match for us. If you want to make memories, go somewhere else!" His comrades laugh with him not long after.

"You guys aren't Toman." Takemichi utters.

"Ha..?" Sanzu hunches in his upper body, hands on his hips to continue taunting Takemichi and his gang. "Your voice is too quiet, we can't hear you!"
