A Cook, A Doctor, A Ghost and A Ronin.

Tag Team

"Behold, my magnificence when I get serious!" Gyokko lunged froward against the Ronin and the Mist Hashira with a renewed confidence, pride and superiority as the scales on his body turned bright red. He coated his arms in Armament Haki.

"Blood Demon Art: Killer Fish Scales!" Gyokko delivers a wide-ranged barrage of physical attacks made all the more powerful by his immense speed and unusual body constitution.

*Bwam!*

*Bang!*

*Dum!*

*King!*

*Dush!*

*King!*

Although Gyokko was indeed fast, Zoro managed to read the attacks with the usage of Observation Haki. He blocked the attacks. Muichiro on the other hand parry all of Gyokko's attacks.

*King!*

Sparks were formed as Gyokko's fist clashed against Muichiro's katana. Although Muichiro cannot cut Gyokko due to the Haki that the demon were using, Muichiro could go toe-to-toe with Gyokko with the power of his raw strength. With a surge of power, Muichiro pushed Gyokko back.

Raw strength that Muichiro possessed managed to land him in a stable situation against Gyokko's barrage of attacks. Remember, that boiling anger. Even if I lose my memory, my body will remember. That anger that will not leave me until I die. 

To destroy demons. And more....to eradicate them!

His immense anger fueled his strength. As he remembered his brother who died because of demons, his hatred keeps growing more and more for demons. If it weren't for Lady Amane who discovered him, he would've died.

The death of his brother is what keeps him training every single day with no breaks. His anger is what makes him trained so hard that he vomits blood. That day changed him forever as he carved his path on becoming the youngest Hashira to ever exist.

"Hoe do you like my moves? They defy the laws of nature! Thanks to my scales, I have a complete freedom of movement. It's impossible to predict! I love contradicting the laws of nature!" Through his special scales, he is able to manipulate his direction and attack at odd angles, making his attacks wildly unpredictable.

"Two Sword Style, Nigiri: Maguma!" A simple downward pound into Gyokko with both swords. The demon came crashing on the ground, causing a tremor.

*Boom!*

"Gaah!" Gyokko groans in pain, but he get back up immediately after that, showing his incredible endurance.

"Laws of nature? How about your face? It looks like it does contradict the laws of nature as well! Considering that you look like shit!" Zoro mocked him, saying that his face did goes against the laws of nature.

"You uncultured monkey! I'll rip off that ugly head of yours and replace it with a fish for a head!" Gyokko is losing his patience . He coated his entirety of body with Haki. His whole body is clad black in Haki.

*Whoosh!*

"I'm not done yet!" As soon as his whole body turned black, his assault began to increase dramatically. Gyokko's speed is also doubled.

*Boom!*

*King!*

What's happening?! The moment he turned all black, he got stronger and faster! Muichiro cannot fathom Gyokko's sudden increase in overall abilities. Meanwhile Zoro just grinned.

"If you think you can beat me, you're wrong! You're nothing but my stepping stone! If that's your full power, then I will gladly show you how I fight!" Zoro laughed as he finally get serious. He took a glance at Muichiro and nod. Muichiro understood what he's saying.

*Swish!*

Muichiro charged first. Gyokko grinned. "You're the first who's going to die, foolish brat! I'll make you regret making a fool out of me!" Gyokko doesn't forget what both Zoro and Muichiro said about him. He's going to make sure that both of them would pay for it. This is the end!

Mist Breathing, Seventh Form: Obscuring Clouds

*Fossh!*

As Gyokko's fist came close to Muichiro's face, the Mist Hashira immediately disappeared in his eyes as if he punch nothing but a mirage of the Mist Hashira. He disappeared?! Where did he go? Gyokko was sure that he didn't hallucinate.

Then, Muichiro was seen few meters away from him, running in an opposite direction of him. No, over there! I see him! Gyokko hurried and throws a powerful jab.

*Fwoo....*

Muichiro disappeared again. Gyokko was left confused. He's gone! Then, Muichiro resurfaced out of nowhere yet again. The Upper Five is starting to get annoyed. Over there!

*Bam!*

This time, I'm going to get you! Gyokko had enough of this games. Although Zoro could read what Muichiro is doing. It seems that the demon haven't mastered Observation Haki. A movement-based technique designed to heavily disorientate the target, which is done so by fluctuating the tempo. 

*Dush!*

Muichiro disappeared again. What? How did he disappeared again? What's going on?! Where did he go?! When Muichiro appears before Gyokko, he moved incredibly slow, but then accelerate to blistering speeds before getting hit, making it seem like he disappeared into a cloud of mist. 

Its's like I am shrouded in mist! Gyokko began to be more cautious. When done repeatedly, it can disorientate the target to the point of making them think they are being covered in a thick layer of mist. Zoro could see that the brat is practicing hard.

"Did you think you were the only one who wasn't being serious before?" Muichiro appeared again before him, saying that he's not the only one being serious before.

"Spare me your cheap tricks!" Gyokko went ahead and smashed the mirage of the brat yet again. He began to feel sick of such tricks.

"You know, I really wanted to take your head off." Muichiro expressed how much he wanted to decapitate Gyokko with all of his heart. He also despised relying on others as he deemed himself to be stronger than anyone else.

Two Sword Style....

"This time, I'll let it slide." But due to lack of Haki, he can't do anything. If there's anything that he hated the most other than demons is being powerless. He had no choice.

Nigiri.....

"Now, its your turn." Muichiro disappeared alongside the mist. Gyokko finally noticed Zoro who is in a stance, grinning. Muichiro is nothing but a distraction all along!

"Gladly!" Zoro replied. Purple aura began to enveloped his swords. He took a stance where Shusui and Enma are held parallel so that the tips are pointing to his left side.

"Toro Samon!!"  Zoro uses two swords in an upward diagonal slash and  send a double air-based projectile attack that cuts through Gyokko.

*Slash!*

*Swing!*

*Ka-Bam!*

Gyokko was decapitated.
