Shinjuku: I couldn't agree more!
Shinjuku shouted as Kachito was prepared to attack. However, Shinjuku pulled a bottle of a green liquid from a pouch and threw it quickly at Kachito. Kachito got out of the way and when the bottle shattered where he was standing it was revealed to be acid.
Kachito looked surprised but snapped out of it and jumped up to strike Shinjuku. But as Kachito prepped to bring Mochi down on Shinjuku's head, Shinjuku hit him in the gut with the pommel of his katana.
This caused Kachito to to spit up a bit and his mind raced. Shit...
Shinjuku grabbed one of Kachito's legs and threw him. Kachito managed to stabilize his landing. Then, Kachito flipped a switch on the updated prosthetic he got after his fight with the Seamstress and flung a shurikan with it.
Kachito: If you can't beat em, join em.
Kachito kept flinging shurikans but Shinjuku kept deflecting.
Shinjuku: An impressive gadget you have there. Maybe having Kachita remove your arm made you stronger.
Shinjuku deflected the last shurikan Kachito had and rushed and knocked Mochi out of Kachito's hand. Then Kachito grappled onto Shinjuku and disarmed him as well.
Kachito assumed a fighting position. Shinjuku did the same.
Kachito rushed in, using a mixture of palm strikes, punches, kicks, and other moves. Shinjuku would do the same. They were countering each other after each attack in a violent cycle.
Kachito: You won't win!
Shinjuku: And who will stop me? You?
They kept on exchanging blows and counters, neither dealing substantial damages. Until Shinjuku put his index and middle finger to Kachito's gut and delivered a quick punch, sending Kachito back.
Kachito recovered and grabbed Mochi and rushed back in. Shinjuku recovered his katana as well. Kachito went in with a stab, hoping to plunge Mochi through his father's heart. But then Shinjuku stepped on Mochi's blade and delivered a kick to Kachito's face.
Shinjuku: Too easy. You are nothing to me Kachito. You have been and always will be my pathetic runt of a son. But don't worry, I'll end you know so you won't have to live with the embarass-
Suddenly, a katana pierced through Shinjuku but didn't hit a vital organ. He looked back and saw Zotawa holding the handle. Zotawa was bloody and bruised from his earlier fight with Shinjuku.
Zotawa: Eating shit, Geriatric Gasbag...
Zotawa falls back unconscious and pulls the katana out. While he didn’t strike Shinjuku's vitals, it would hinder Shinjuku. Kachito used the time from Zotawa's distraction to get back up. He tilted his head, cracking his neck, and got ready to fight more.
Kachito only had one thought. I'm gonna kill this old bastard.
