*Back to Zumo Vs Shiroi*
"Should we stop them?" Kakudai questioned
"No, let them fight, is too dangerous to interfere, if anything gets worse I'll step in." Kurai bravely says
"Don't forget me!" Jūden stands up and says
*Standing firm, Zumo eyes Shiroi as he descends from above, hesitant to engage physically for fear of accidentally causing harm. However, before he can fully brace himself, Shiroi's sudden flash step catches Zumo off guard. Reacting swiftly, Zumo flips backward and assumes a defensive stance, unwilling to initiate an attack but prepared to defend himself. Attempting to reason with Shiroi, Zumo emphasizes, "You always try to control me, Shiroi. Have you forgotten who you're speaking to?" Shiroi retorts, hurling his wooden sword towards Zumo, who narrowly dodges. Seizing the opportunity, Shiroi teleports to Zumo's side and launches a punch, only to be thwarted as Zumo counters and feints, causing Shiroi to stagger. "What's wrong, afraid of me now?" Shiroi taunts, to which Zumo responds defiantly, "Perhaps you should be asking yourself the same question."*

In a strategic move, Zumo positions himself behind Shiroi, but Shiroi quickly evades Zumo's punch, closing the distance. With Zumo momentarily vulnerable, Shiroi strikes, forcing Zumo to defend against incoming fireballs with a Susano'o arm.*
*They both collapse on the ground, and Zumo confronts Shiroi, questioning why he's engaging in this conflict and urging him to cease the fight. Shiroi, consumed by rage, vehemently expresses his resentment towards Zumo, believing him to be superior in every aspect. Confused by Shiroi's sudden outburst, Zumo recalls their past rivalry, initially forged to determine who was the strongest. Before the tension escalates further, a massive fireball hurtles toward Zumo, prompting him to evade. Shiroi attempts to strike with a teleportation-assisted kick, but Zumo's quick reflexes prevent the attack from landing. Seizing the opportunity, Zumo seizes Shiroi's leg and hurls him into the water. Despite Zumo's attempts to reason with Shiroi, he is met with a vicious clothesline to his face, pushing him to his breaking point.*
