Rulers Chapter 7 - "Gratitude"

Amidst the battle between the forces of August and Mitsurin, Arnold Ryu runs toward the front of the

battlefield and jumps in the air and dropkicks a delinquent in the face making him fall on the ground

and his nose completely shattered! 2 other delinquents run towards Ryu in the battle where Mia and

Manny's Divisions are on a full out onslaught, Ryu punches on delinquent and then axe-kicks the

other, both of their jaws were damaged severely and both ends being knocked out! Ryu picks

a metal pipe on the ground and throws it towards Sho, with his arm nerves popping out! It travels

at an immense speed and swoops through the battlefield where it comes near Sho but Sho catches

it and screams "RYU!!!!"! He rushes through the brutal battle where Mia and Manny try to stop him

but he swats them away with his immense power and even hits his forces as he rushes toward

Ryu! Ryu smiles as he says "TIME TO END THIS ALL!"! Back in King's viewpoint, King screams

as he dashes through all of August's members with unprecedented strength, as a delinquent rushes

towards King, King overhand punches this delinquent sending him flying, deforming his face in

the process and he flies through the air as he ends up near 3 August delinquents who try to catch him

but also fall and can't get up because of the immense force generated by the punch!

All of Mitsurin's Captain look at King and Manny says "Who the hell is that guy? He already took out 95 armed August Delinquents by himself!". King smiles and screams "MITSURIN, FROM NOW ON

NO MORE DEFENSE BUT AN ALL-OUT ATTACK, AUGUST IS ALMOST DONE FOR, LET'S MAKE IT

EASY FOR OUR COMMANDER!!!!", and yells "MITSURIN FIGHTOO!!!!". Everyone screams in

excitement and rage as they follow King's instructions! While this plan is getting implemented

Lee runs into 10 August delinquents while carrying Shen! They all are in white biker gang uniforms

and say "Look at this shuttle pissin' his pants!". One of the delinquents runs up and punches Lee

in the face sending him flying! They all laugh saying

"Who's this silver-haired freak, he needs to know his place"! When he was about to kick Shen,

one of the delinquents says "Stop! Isn't that Shen Kishi, the White Ghost of Tokyo! HAHAHA,

I can't believe I get to beat up this monster! I'll kill him for street cred and make into the top ranks

of Keido and Tokyo Kingdom!". He runs up towards Shen and is about to punch an injured Shen who is taking a knee but in a flash, someone else gets in front of him and he hits this person! It's Lee, he coughs up blood and says "B-aack away

from Shen-san... As the advisor of the Tokyo Mitsurin Gang and as a friend, you have to kill me to

touch Shen-san!!!"! Shen looks at a frail student standing in the light in front of him, with full bravery

and laughs! He gets a flashback to when he recovered from the hospital he asked Ryu why he made Song Lee the Mitsurin Gang's Advisor and Ryu replied "Sure he can't fight for crap and he's

a delinquent otaku (someone obsessed or immensely interested in the world of delinquency,

and he's not too smart either but there are many guys who are great fighters but not many with the

loyalty or the will to stand up for their friends when everyone is against them, those idiots have even

more charisma than strong fighters and are the type of guys to be leaders! chuckles, kind of

reminds of him!". Shen realizes that Ryu was right and laughs! The delinquent rages "YOU

BASTARDS, IMMA MAKE YOU PAY!". He runs up with a haymaker but Lee also runs up with a fist

but the delinquent sees this and attacks first, he lands a blow to his face, causing Lee's mouth to bleed but Lee smiles and crouches as he drags his fist to the delinquent's foot and hit s a pressure

point located on the foot with immense force as he rotates his hips, then the delinquent cries

in unfathomable pain! But Lee doesn't waste time as he rotates his hips in a singular motion and drags his elbow to the delinquent's face as he is screaming in pain and hits his jaw! The

delinquent falls to the ground, knocked out cold! Everyone is surprised that a frail nerd just beat an

August Delinquent! Shen looks at Lee as he bravely stands up for him and smiles... Lee thinks back

to a time when he was on the rooftops with Ryu was he was working out by doing sit-ups

with his shirt off and asked Ryu,

"Hey Ryu-Kun, now that I am the Tokyo Mitsurin Gang's Offical Advisor, I was thinking if you teach

me how to fight to defend myself since people will come for me because of my delinquent position...". Ryu gets up and his shiny black hair floats as he is well-built six-pack rises and he

says "Well, you are right but first you need to start working out until you build up a body of an average male but since you are the advisor you need to be able to take on at least 5 average fighters!"! Lee faints as he says "Ryu-san, I'm not a monster like you! Plus the battle with August is tomorrow!!!"! Ryu responds by saying "Okay, okay... I'll teach you a pretty easy combo

that even your body can execute, it should be able to beat at least an average delinquent, I call it

the "Ryu's Easy Suffocating Elbow Combo"! What do you think of the name?". Lee responds by saying

"It needs some work...". Ryu frowns and says "Anyway, there are multiple weak spots in the human

body whether it be a man's manhood or someone's throat! There are pressure points in many places

as well as nerves in certain places on a person's body. You are not good enough to execute a throat punch or a palm strike yet but let's start by punching a person's foot. The foot has many nerves located

there as well as a pressure point! Start by making your opponent thinking you're going for a

normal haymaker but then crouch as you drag your fist with your knuckles out while your hips are rotating and strike the foot of your opponent, you may take a blow while doing this so tighten up your face or stomach or just move towards to lessen the impact! After you execute

this, your opponent should scream in immense pain, but don't was any time and get back up and

rotate your hips and place your hand on your fist and drag your left or right elbow in a horizontal

motion while you are rotating your hips and strike the jaw of your opponent, it will knock them out or

at least make them fall to buy you time!". The August delinquents scream saying "THIS FUCKING

SHUTTLE DOESN'T KNOW HIS PLACE, TAKE YOU NERD!". As they all come towards Lee

and Shen, Lee thinks, Oh crap, I screwed but I'll protect Shen-san no matter what it takes!

Shen tries to get up but can't because of his injuries, Lee waits for them to attack but suddenly

a punch comes out of nowhere and hits the delinquent running at Lee, and his jaw gets deformed as he flies back, bleeding and spurting out blood on the ground! Lee looks to see who it

is and it's KING! King says "OMARE (YOU GUYS), HOW DARE YOU ATTACK THE ADVISOR OFHE TOKYO MITSURIN GANG!!!". Lee gets a call from the ambulance people saying that the ambulance has arrived! King smiles and says "Lee take Shen to the ambulence, I'll deal with these extras and stay

by his side, I'll finish up and meet up with others at the construction site!". Lee agrees and takes

Shen to the ambulance as they get Shen on a stretcher Lee climbs into the ambulance as they

drive to the hospital! King smiles and says "Let's end this!!!". The other 9 delinquents rush at

King as one tries to punch his face, King ducks and uppercuts him knocking him out! Then King

grabs onto another delinquent collar and grabs his arm as he throws him behind his back as he

is knocked out! the other 7 rush at King as King punches one to the throat as he falls he

grabs his shirt and throws him into two other delinquents as they all fall, unable to move!

The other 4 freeze in fear as this monster's absurd strength are used against them! King goes up

them as he front kicks a delinquent to the chest he falls and his ribs are broken!

He recoils his kick and left hooks another delinquent, knocking him out! Then the diagonal kick

(Muay Thai) another delinquent, completely making him lose consciousness, and the last

delinquent thinks Who is that guy!!!, he took down 9 delinquents with ease! Those moves I've

seen them before, they are from the martial art style, Kūdō (空道) (Kūdō involves the best moves

from Kyokushin Karate (極真), Shotokan, Muay Thai, Wrestling, Boxing (Kickboxing as well), Judo,

Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (Also Japanese Jujutsu), and other martial arts in one style of martial arts, it

is a hybrid Japanese Karate style of martial it is super effective in a real fight and is said to

be one of the strongest styles of martial arts out there)!

King punches the delinquent's jaw as he gets knocked and says "Huh... was that it? I was expecting

to break a sweat but that was too easy! Ok, let's hurry back to Ryu!"

(King learned this martial art in Japan when he was younger in Okinawa, Japan, and casually competed in Karate competitions in Japan whenever he visited, he was ranked

nationally in the sport of Karate and even got an invite for International Karate Sports despite his

young age, but after moving to the states due to his wish of his sister being in Japan with his

grandparents, he had to go to the States Foster Care system since his parents died)

See inside the ambulance asks the paramedic, "Is Shen-san going to be okay!!!" and the paramedic

replies by saying, "Right now, he has lost a lot of blood, but he is stable like this man is a tank,

cuz this man lost so much blood but is still stable? like what the fuck? this man is freaking tank!

anyways I can't promise anything until we get to the hospital". The ambulance drives away in

tension. At the battlefield where the showdown is happening Sho sees that August is getting demolished and that if this continues, they will lose! So he yells "RYU!!!!!! STOP YOUR SOLDIERS!

I CHALLENGE YOU TO A ONE-ONE FIGHT WITH NO INTERRUPTIONS, WHOEVER WINS, WINS THE BATTLE

AND ABSORBS THE OTHER GANG! DO YOU ACCEPT?". Ryu yells "EVERYONE STOP RIGHT NOW!

(every Mitsurin delinquent stops in their tracks as they listen to Ryu), NO MORE FIGHT, I'll TAKE

CARE OF SHO! AS LONG AS I'M HERE MITSURIN DOESN'T LOSE, SO TRUST ME AND BACK OFF!

SHO I ACCEPT YOUR CHALLENGE!". Every delinquent backs off and goes back to each other's side!

Mitsurin members and captains believe in Ryu as they know he is strong but has doubts if he

can beat Sho who is royal of the TOKYO KINGDOM as the #9 the in the command above Shen

since he was notorious enough to take surpass even Shen, they start to wonder who is going to win!

Sho thinks, If I crush this twerp right now I can become unite Mitsurin and August and even try out

for the Supreme 5 ranks of TK (TOKYO KINGDOM), and even be a YAKUZA!!!". Everyone hears

a loud voice saying "RYU TAKE THIS GUY DOWN FAST, I GOTTA GO BACK TO MY SIS' AND TREAT

THE OTHERS TO A PARTY AFTER YOU WRECK THIS UP-TIGHT BASTARD!". All of the Mitsurin and

August members look to see who said this and it's King! Sho scoffs and gets angry but Mitsurin

Delinquents yell "Yah crush'm commander", "MITSURIN WON'T LOSE TO THESE WIMPS!" as

the crowd motivates Ryu. Ryu, and Sho to square up and prepare to protect their gang's legacy...
