Hey guys! Surprise surprise, the chapter is a few days early, but I have my reasons for that.

Tenma waves his fingers together as he starts his explanation, Aki listening attentively. ''I... know that my wording from yesterday sounds pretty bad,'' is the first thing he says. ''And when I said 'war', I meant a... media or political war, I guess you could call it.''
This certainly grabs her attention and the young woman raises her eyebrows, slightly surprised. Tenma shoots her a dry look. ''Aki-nee, you should know me well enough to realize that I don't want an armed war.'' She has the decency to look sheepish. ''But, as I was saying, I want to start a war. A war to stop Fifth Sector and the Resistance.''
His temporary guardian frowns at that, but she keeps quiet so that he can finish. ''Fifth Sector is... horrible. They need to be stopped, and as I told the Resistance before, not only through soccer. There are many more ways of attacking them. Publically or legally, for example.
''That's also where my second point comes in. I'm not happy with the Resistance. They take things too lightly.'' The time traveler sighs, his whole posture only portraying seriousness. ''I know they can't act easily, but so far, the only things they've done were installing Kidou-san as Teikoku's coach and coach Endou as Raimon's. They're doing their research, but not much is coming from them.''
Tenma looks at his sister-figure with grave grey eyes. ''You know them better than I do, Aki-nee. Tell me, what will they do once Hibiki-san becomes Holy Emperor?''
''Free soccer,'' she answers immediately. When the brunet raises an unimpressed eyebrow, she frowns as she tries to think of a complete answer. ''I'm... not sure, but they'll take care of all Fifth Sector personal and most likely the Seeds as well.''
The brunet nods. ''As I thought.''
(As he knows.)
''But is that really right?''
Aki responds with a look of confusion. ''What do you mean?''
Her relative smiles unhappily. ''Is that really right, Aki-nee? Don't you think those Seeds – those kids – deserve to play soccer as well? Who knows what they've gone through under Fifth Sector's regime? Maybe they were forced to work for them. And what about the teams? The Resistance will get rid of Fifth's coaches – which is good – but what then? Are they just going to leave the teams in chaos, without a coach to take charge, and most likely with at least two players gone?''
The brunet shakes his head, answering his own question. ''That's not right. I want to free soccer, too, but I don't want to abandon the other teams once Fifth Sector is beaten. I want to help them too, but the Resistance won't listen to a child.'' His eyes glow blue with his resolve. ''So I'll have to take charge myself.''
He pauses there, allowing Aki to take in everything he just told her. ''But, as I said, I'm barely a teenager. I'm not stupid, I know I can't take on both the Resistance and Fifth Sector like this.'' His lips quirk upwards in a small smile. ''So I'm not going to reveal my identity while I attack them.''
At this, his relative frowns in confusion. ''Then what are you planning?''
Tenma smiles mysteriously and grabs his reverse notebook from the desk behind him. He flips through it until he reaches the right page-
(Wouldn't do for Aki to see some of the... other things he's written down.)
-and holds it out to his sister-figure.
