Chapter 435: Next Level

Chapter 435: Next Level

"A grudge eh? Well, it wouldn't be manly for me to say no!" laughed Shiba, though frowning a little. He had sent letters of challenges to the champion's gym before the whole class A tournament, only to be rejected. Now he had a good look at the champion, he was beginning to realize they were rejected out of probably cowardice. Still, Takeda was the number one ranker in the JBC, so there was no reason for rejection.

Shiba decided to make a little call to the alien brat, just to make sure he could get a little more persuasive power. It didn't hurt to get that help, even if it meant him having power over his gym, even if he was the major backer of it as well as the person to make it happen.

While many things were happening Kenichi was in Kamar Taj, the whole Kenichi not just 1/4th of him as the Ancient One had told him that there was something she wants to discuss with him.

"After your recent fight your strength has increased again am I right?" asked Ancient One.

"Yes, that's right" replied Kenichi

"I thought your speed would slow down a little after reaching this class but if you continued to develop at this pace then you would enter the next level so I thought you should know about it." stated the Ancient One

"What!? What level is there after Legendary Master?" asked Kenichi

"After Legendary Master comes Martial Saint, then Martial Sage, followed Martial Emperor and finally Martial God but reaching any of these stages isn't humanely possible" stated Ancient One

"What do you mean it isn't Humanely possible?" asked Kenichi

"To enter Martial Saint your ki level must be at least 3 times that of what it was at Legendary Master stage and even after so many years neither Hayato Furiniji or ganosuke Yogi has reached this level you may be improving at a fast rate but you should also know that the amount of ki you had when you entered Legendary Master stage was much more than those two so even if your ki continues to increase at this rate it won't be anytime soon that you reach that level" explained Ancient One

"Then why tell me about it now" asked Kenichi

"Because I know how hungry you are when it comes to martial and knowing that you aren't at the top will allow you to push yourself more and who knows you may surprise me by entering the next stage much faster. You should understand their has never been a human who broke through the mortality and entered the Martial Saint stage so I would like to see you enter it before my demise" stated the Ancient One with a smile after which she left the hall leaving Kenichi alone in contemplation.

Still, most of the Shinpaku Alliance members that weren't fighters were nervous about the members of Yomi being here, and so ended giving Rachel the cold shoulder despite her attempts to be friendly. But one warning from Kenichi and they were good.

Before anything could happen though, the respective phones of Yomi began to ring simultaneously. Sharing a look, they all silently moved towards the entrance. Sho and Chikage apologized for the sudden departure, but were also glad as they had been getting slaughtered by Kaede again.

"Where do you think you are going Rachel?" asked Kenichi as he saw Rachel follow the other 5.

"Don't forget that you are under Ryozanpkau. Usually we don't stop you but if you think that you can casually go back to Yami then you are wrong get back here" Kenichi ordered

Rachel wanted to retort back but one look from Kenichi and she understood that he wasn't kidding so she shut up and sta back on her seat.

The other 5 stared at Rachel for few seconds before they left.

Six black Mercedes Benz were parked right outside the Shinpaku Alliance, showcasing just how rich Yami still was despite Niijima undercutting their funds. Still, having a car for each member was just the organization flexing its riches when two or three cars would have been sufficient enough.

In the original story when one of Ogata's base had been found, all of Ryozanpaku mobilized to attack the base. They had brought Kenichi and Miu with them last time, leaving them outside with the rest of the Shinpaku Alliance while they attacked the base. This time, however, they made quite a few changes to this arrangement, such as Kenichi was present there with them fighting against Ogata's underlings.

"So is this really helpful?" asked Kenichi as he ducked under a swing from Ogata's underling and returned one of his own knocking the poor guy.

"Because it's helpful" replied Natasha as she flipped and gave a 360 kick to the two underlings followed by Miu appearing beside her and giving a split kick to the other two underlings coming towards them.

"This is a good experience for you!" cackled Sakaki as he used Tetsuki Hyakudan, sending many underlings flying with a series of powerful thrusts.

"Not to mention despite not being his main disciples, Kensei's ability to relay techniques is quite astounding," commented the Elder as he sent five underlings smashing into a wall with a palm thrust so strong that an imprint of his palm magnified formed against the wall.

"It's a technique palazzo, so in short, perfect training material for you,"
