"You surely didn't think you had actually beaten me." The younger Toguro said to the male Spirit Detective. "Money decided that fight long before you entered the ring. But don't be angry, you might have a chance to fight on fair terms and not get so easily crushed. " During the entire speech, Yusuke was shaking like a leaf on a wild windstorm.
"Why don't you get to the point, Muscles?" Yusuke demanded as he put up a brave face and all. However, his attempts were in vain because his trembling limbs gave his true feelings away. "I've got better things to do in my time than waste it with you." A small drop of sweat began to roll from the side of his face.
"You're afraid of me." The man chuckled in amusement.
"What?" The teen boy exclaimed. "Amused is more like it."
"There is no one here to impress Yusuke." Toguro reminded the boy as he began to unbutton his coat. "And I can see your entire body shaking. The ability to fear your enemies is one of your strengths. It forces you to reach your potential. But you hadn't been scared enough." The man then threw away his green coat. "You need some motivation and that's why I've come here. To show my true power!!!" He screamed the last part as he began to set his energy free. "I only used twenty percent of my strength when I last fought with you, your sister, and your friend." Yusuke gasped in shock. "So why don't I now show you?" Then Toguro's muscles began to expand fast while his Spiritual energy just rises and rises, something that would probably give everyone a massive headache. Once the muscles stopped expanding Toguro hit one of the pillars that held up the building. Once his fist made contact it just crushed into little pieces. "There, that's sixty percent."
Finally, the Urameshi boy got back to his senses and backed away, but before he can move any further the muscular man began to kick, punch everything that surrounded them. The whole building got destroyed, leaving nothing to stand.
Yusuke pushed the rubble piece off of himself and try to catch his breath while his brain attempted to take everything that he had witnessed. But as soon as he lifted his gaze up, he saw Toguro's frame again, who just stood there and look at the teen with a blank stare. The male Spirit Detective got back up to his feet, but from then on, he didn't know what to do. He was horrified to the core.
"Understand, this is the last time I will save your life." Toguro spoke, draining the color from the Urameshi boy's face who was trembling even more. Within a blink of an eye, the man with sunglasses disappeared, but then reappeared right behind Yusuke, who flinched.
"Two months from now a martial arts competition will be taking place." Toguro informed the terrified teen boy.
"Oh, sounds like fun. . ." Yusuke replied shakily as one drop of sweat rolled down from his chin.
"It's a Dark Tournament, organized by greedy human crime lords and drawing the most vile demons from the Spirit World." The man continued on with no emotion in his voice. "Each criminal gathers a team of six fighters, and the teams battle to the death. Humans do it for their gambling and entertainment. Demon's fight for blood and a chance to win the prize. You, Miyuki, and Kuwabara are special guests to this competition. If you refuse I will immediately kill you and everyone you know. If you wanna survive these fights, I suggest you get stronger. " With that, the man walked away, leaving the poor fourteen-year-old teen collapsed to his knees with the weight of fear and responsibility that is literally pushing him down to the dirt.
'Stupid Yusuke!' The boy mentally cussed at himself in frustration. 'You got so scared around and you couldn't even freaking move!'
