Hello readers! I present to everyone chapter 41! What's going to happen in this chapter? Let's find out! Let's start this chapter!
Normal POV
They opened the door as they looked at the army in front of them.
" That's a lot." Misaki (KHR) said
" No choice. We're going to have to push our way through." Kamui (KHR) said
" Are those humans too?" Aichi (?) ask
" Yeah. They're from the DES Army." Miwa replied
" That's not a problem. Kai-kun!" Aichi (?) called
Kai (?) nodded as he took out a gold key.
" Gate of the Scales, I open thee. Libra!" Kai (?) called
" You called?" Libra ask
" Increase the enemy's gravity." Kai (?) said
" Roger."
As the DES army slowly fell to the ground, Kai (KHR) looked over to him.
" Almost full power, huh? You were lying." Kai (KHR) said
" Not like I was the one who said it..." Kai (?) said
" Gate of the Scorpion, I open thee! Scorpio!" Aichi (?) called
" We are!"
" Scorpio, those are the opponents!" Aichi (?) said
" Okay! Sand Buster!"
A sandstorm threw the DES army away from them as the Shadow minions started advancing. Tsuna and the others stopped them as black mist formed behind them to reveal Reversed Kai and the others.
" Wow, there's a Reversed version here?" Aichi (?) wondered
" Why are you impressed?" Kai (?) ask
" Just wondering. Then... Let's do it. Il Armor, Arms, Vernier! Enchant!" Aichi (?) declared
A green glow surrounded everyone as they looked at the glow.
" Wow! I'm getting a power up!" Naoki exclaimed
" I've enchanted all of your attack, defence and speed! Scorpio, return to the gate for now." Aichi (?) said
" Yeah! Just in time for my date!" Scorpio said
" Uh... I-I see... E-Enjoy yourself..." Aichi (?) said
" We are!"
Scorpio disappeared after that as Aichi (?) sighed.
" We're not going to summon her, are we?" Aichi (?) ask
" I hope not..." Kai (?) replied
" Let's get this started." Reversed Kai said, clicking his fingers
Sheshe and the others transformed again as they dodged their attacks.
" Let's finish this in one go!" Aichi (?) said
" Yeah!"
" Dragon Slayer Secret Art..."
" Shattering Light: Sky Drill!"
" Crimson Lotus: Exploding Flame Blade!"
As the combined techniques of Wind and Fire combined, Sheshe and the others were hit as they turned back to normal.
" That was exhausting..." Kai (?) said
" From that one attack?" Aichi (?) ask
" Hey, unlike you, I don't have the proper fill for this..." Kai (?) replied
" Oh, right... Hey, can someone send fire our way?!" Aichi (?) called
" Oh, okay! Flare, fire it at them!" Aichi (KHR) called
" Are you crazy?!" Naoki exclaimed
As Flare shot out a giant fireball at them, Kai (?) turned and sucked in the flames as he sighed in relief.
" Thanks for the fill." Kai (?) said
" He ate it..." Miwa muttered
" Now that I'm filled up, let's do this." Kai (?) said
" Couldn't you have eaten your own flame instead?" Kai (KHR) ask
" No. Strangely enough, no one can eat their own magic." Aichi (?) replied
" I-I see..."
" But still... That's weird." Miwa said
" Oh, it's not that weird once you get used to it." Aichi (?) said
" Right..."
" ... Defeated in one shot. Those two are different from before..." Reversed Kai muttered
" Of course. They're from another world." Aichi (KHR) said
Reversed Kai got surprised a little at that.
" I have enhanced hearing. You can't do anything about that." Aichi (KHR) said
" This is troublesome..." Reversed Kai sighed
He clicked his fingers as more Shadow minions appeared.
" Wow! They're bigger than the ones before!" Aichi (?) exclaimed
" Why are you impressed...?" Leon ask
Naoki (KHR) got a hit onto one of them as it exploded upon getting hit as black smog started to engulf him.
" What?!"
" Naoki-kun!"
" Don't come...!" Naoki (KHR) shouted
" Ishida!"
" This is..." Misaki exclaimed
" Poison." Reversed Kai said
" What?!"
" Naoki-kun, get out of there!" Aichi (KHR) shouted
" Damn it..." Naoki (KHR) muttered
Suddenly, a green glow surrounded him while wind blew the smog away as Naoki (KHR) stood up.
" I don't know what happened but I'm feeling much better!" Naoki (KHR) exclaimed
" Body Anomaly Magic Resistance: Enchant. Poison won't work on Sky Magic." Aichi (?) said
" Thanks! You saved me there!" Naoki (KHR) said
" It's not a problem." Aichi (?) said
" There's more where that came from." Reversed Kai said
" You're right. Then I'll give them an order right now." Aichi (?) said
" It's no use. I'm the one who gives the orders here." Reversed Kai said
" This is an order. Every single one of you will return to the shadows you came from." Aichi (?) ordered
Suddenly, the Shadow minions shriveled and disappeared one by one as they gasped.
" They listened?!" Kourin exclaimed
" Impossible! You're not even part of Void!" Reversed Kai exclaimed
" Take Over. Satan Soul: Seilah. With this Satan Soul, I'm able to give orders to anyone I desire." Aichi (?) said
" Jeez... You and Mirajane are scary people." Kai (?) sighed
" Mira-san took her body though." Aichi (?) said
" It's not like you needed it anyway." Kai (?) said
" Once again... what was that about being at full power?" Kai (KHR) ask
" ... I wasn't the one who said it." Kai (?) replied
" Can I use another one?" Aichi (?) ask
" If you're talking about that, then no. You'll faint." Kai (?) warned
" But it's no fun to keep it unused!" Aichi (?) pouted
" You're pregnant. I'm not going to let you exhaust yourself." Kai (?) whispered
" But..."
" No."
" ... Fine..." Aichi (?) pouted
" Even though there are three of them, each Aichi-san and Kai-san can act really differently..." Tsuna said
" Yeah..."
" So what should we do with him?" Gokudera ask, looking over to Reversed Kai
" Well, he is outnumbered..." Kamui (KHR) said
" I wouldn't try that if I were you." A voice said
Suddenly, black mist rose and grabbed Aichi (?) by his throat and he tried to break free.
" Aichi!"
Void appeared behind him as he wrapped his other arm around Aichi's (?) shoulders.
" This presence... No doubt about it. You haven't changed one bit, Void." Aichi (KHR) said
" Let him go!" Kai (?) shouted
Aichi (KHR) eyed Ibuki and nodded as Ibuki went back into the gym to protect Tasuku.
" I would advise you to not try anything funny. Or I might snap his neck by accident." Void warned
" Don't you dare!" Kai (?) shouted
Void smirked as his hand tightened a little and Aichi (?) gasped.
" No!"
" What do you want?" Kai (KHR) ask
" Be careful. He has a baby inside him so it's too dangerous to act carelessly." Aichi (KHR) communicated
" I know. I'll try to distract him. He'll eventually let his guard down." Kai (KHR) communicated
Misaki (KHR) and the others nodded after hearing the communication as they slowly moved bit by bit to try not be spotted.
" I want this world's Sendou. Although, I wouldn't mind if I could gain this one and the other one behind you too." Void said
" Aichi's not something you can get whenever you want." Kai (KHR) said
" Oh, is that so? I guess it applies to this one as well?" Void ask as he squeezed Aichi's throat again
" Stop it!" Kai (?) exclaimed
Aichi (?) then opened his eyes and mouthed something as Kai (?) slowly nodded.
" Throw water... in their direction." Kai (?) whispered
" Water?" Kamui (KHR) ask as he prepared himself
" Yeah. Throw it towards my Aichi and close the gates. Seal all openings off." Kai (?) continued
" O-Okay..."
As they quickly got to work, Void raised an eyebrow.
" Whatever you're planning, it won't work on me." Void said
" ... Now!" Kai (?) shouted
Kamui threw a ball of water towards Void and Aichi (?) as Void got ready to dodge while Aichi (?) took out a key and directed it to the water.
" Gate of... the Water Bearer... I open thee... Aquarius!"
There was a light as waves of water pushed all of them away while Aichi (?) managed to free himself.
" That was dangerous. It isn't like you to have your guard down." A voice said
" Thank you, Aquarius..." Aichi (?) said
" You're wiping us all out!" Kai (?) exclaimed
" Shut up! You guys interrupted my date! You're lucky it's for a good reason!" Aquarius yelled
Another wave crashed at them as they were swept away again.
" Hey! Too much water! The field is gonna turn into a pool!" Naoki exclaimed
" SHUT UP! IT'S BECAUSE YOU GUYS COULDN'T PROTECT HIM THAT YOU INTERRUPTED MY DATE!" Aquarius yelled
" You're still mad after all..." Aichi (?) said
The gym doors burst opened from the continuous waves as Ibuki immediately covered Tasuku as they were swept out by the waves.
" Ibuki-san!"
" I can't even swim with this wave!" Kamui (KHR) exclaimed
" Flare! Help Ibuki-san!" Aichi (KHR) shouted
Flare immediately flew over to Ibuki as he grabbed onto its leg and was flown into the roof. Ibuki sighed in relief and checked on Tasuku to see him cheering.
" You... Do you know how much danger you were in?" Ibuki sighed
" Aquarius, I'm alright now so please stop..." Aichi (?) said
" Tch! You really don't realize how much danger you were in! You should know your identity very well! If something happened to you while you were in another world, who would be held accountable?!" Aquarius ask
" I know... Thank you..." Aichi (?) said
" Tch! I'm going back!" Aquarius said as she disappeared
Kai (?) managed to swim over to him as he helped Aichi (?) up and held onto him while checking his neck, which had turned red.
" Can you breathe? You're not hurt anywhere else, are you?" Kai (?) ask
" No... I'm okay..." Aichi (?) assured
" Here, let me heal you." Aichi (KHR) said as he used his Sun flames
" Where did our Aichi go anyway?" Naoki wondered
" I'm not sure either." Miwa said
" Our Kai is missing too." Ren said
" I think it's a good idea to hide. Void isn't an easy enemy to deal with after all." Aichi (?) said
" With our own experiences, Void must have some other plan up his sleeve." Aichi (KHR) said
" ... It's time." Void said
The others were confused but got ready nevertheless as a glow suddenly started surrounding Aichi (?) and Kai (?).
" Hey, hey. Are you serious?! Again?!" Naoki (KHR) exclaimed
" What is this?!" Aichi (?) exclaimed
" This can only mean that you're getting sent back to your world." Aichi (KHR) said
" But if that's so, then someone else might replace you from what we see happened." Kai (KHR) added
" How many times must we explain this situation anyway...?" Leon ask
" ... I don't know..."
" Huh?! We just started to have fun too!" Aichi (?) exclaimed as he disappeared along with Kai (?)
They all sweat dropped.
" Still, Void seemed to have known about this." Ren said
" A time space hole has been ripped open. The rest of you didn't fall into this world with the Dimensional Nova's power, so you weren't affected. But... those two are." Void explained as he pointed up
They looked up to see familiar figures as black mist made its way towards them.
" Flare! Catch them!" Aichi (KHR) exclaimed
Flare flew up to catch the two right before the black mist can grab them when a red barrier surrounded them and stopped the two.
" A cube?!"
" What is this?!" Kai (?) exclaimed
" Black mist... and a phoenix..." Aichi (?) exclaimed
" Let's get to ground level." Kai (?) said
Aichi (?) nodded as the cube disppeared and appeared again while extending to the ground. The two landed and saw their lookalikes.
" ... This is the least weirdest thing I'm seeing in my whole life... Let me guess, we're in another world?" Aichi (?) ask
" Huh? Y-Yeah..." Naoki replied
" Aichi, look." Kai (?) said as he motioned to Void
Aichi (?) stayed silent after seeing Void as he turned his head away.
" Should I?" Kai (?) ask
" ... Yeah."
Putting his fore finger and middle finger together, Kai (?) then directed them to Void and Reversed Kai.
" Ketsu!"
An unusually big barrier surrounded the two as Aichi (?) scratched his cheek.
" And I thought their sizes would be enough for you to aim properly without having to waste so much energy." Aichi (?) said
" You never know." Kai (?) said
" Anyway, could you release the Kekkai here?" Aichi (?) ask
" Okay."
The barrier around them disappeared as they looked around.
" This is Miyaji High, huh? As expected, I don't sense the same energy compared to our world's Miyaji High." Aichi (?) said
" Yeah."
" Miyaji High has some sort energy in your world...?" Aichi (KHR) ask
" It's a sort of sealed power from the first master of the land. Demons, or what we call Ayakashi, roam in the school at night to feed off the energy and transform to become more dangerous forms. It's our job as a Kekkaishi to eliminate those Ayakashi and make sure nothing's damaged." Kai (?) explained
" Wow, it sounded more complicated than it should be." Kamui (KHR) said
" Basically, we're the chosen ones to protect the land. Our family have similar powers to make a Kekkai, a barrier that you see there. It encloses an Ayakashi and upon command, will collapse and destroy it without leaving a trace behind. But it takes a great amount of concentration and depending on the size of your Kekkai that you create, the more energy you drain. Kai-kun is fine because he has more power compared to me." Aichi (?) explained
" So he's a power idiot?" Gokudera ask
" ... Ketsu."
Kai (?) directed his fingers to the left as a small Kekkai stretched out and hit Gokudera on his head and he collapsed upon impact.
" Gokudera-kun!"
" That's why you should watch your mouth." Reborn said
" His accuracy isn't quite the best sometimes. But that only happens with small Ayakashi." Aichi (?) said
" That means you can see ghosts?" Tsuna ask
" Yeah, quite clearly. If needed, we help them pass on too. There's one right beside you." Aichi (?) said
Tsuna shrieked as Aichi (?) quickly hid a chuckle.
" I'm kidding, I'm kidding. If there is one, I'll have a talk with it." Aichi (?) said
Aichi (KHR) blinked as soon as Aichi (?) lifted his hand to cover his mouth. He walked over and took it as he rolled up the sleeve to see three large scars covering his arm.
" These scars..." Aichi (KHR) exclaimed
" Oh, I got injured by an Ayakashi during one of those nights because I let my guard down a little. I got way better since then." Aichi (?) said
When he said that, Kai (?) turned his head away and frowned as he soon noticed Void and Reversed Kai had retreated.
" They escaped." Kai (?) said
" It's expected. That's Void after all." Aichi (?) said
Kai (?) nodded as he released the Kekkai.
" It's obviously my fault... Why won't you blame me for those scars?" Aichi (KHR) soon heard a voice
" Someone's heart is troubled and wrecked with guilt." Aichi (KHR) thought
Aichi (KHR) then looked over to Kai (?) as he noticed his frown and slightly narrowed his eyes.
" Anyway, let's talk inside." Kai (KHR) said
" It doesn't matter. There's no barrier protecting the school anymore." Misaki said
" It's better than talking outside in the open." Kamui (KHR) said
" ... Kai-kun. Can you do it?" Aichi (?) ask
" This place is huge. My concentration won't last long." Kai (?) replied
" Then block the gates. That should be enough." Aichi (?) said
Kai (?) nodded as he walked off to seal the gates off with his Kekkai. The others entered the gym and noticed the mess inside after Aquarius had gone on her rampage.
" ... We'll need to clean this up first." Aichi (KHR) said
" Agreed..."
Aichi (?) took out a few pieces of paper and scattered them around as mini figures came out of them and started cleaning up.
" They're called Shikigami. They'll be using my powers to fix up the place, so there's no need to worry." Aichi (?) explained
" Awesome!"
Ibuki came back down at that time as he handed Tasuku back to Aichi (KHR) so that he could change his now wet clothes.
" Oh, let me help." Aichi (?) said
" Huh? Sure."
Both went towards an unsoaked mat and changed Tasuku's clothes and diaper after that.
" You seem experienced with this." Aichi (KHR) said
" Well, yeah..." Aichi (?) said
Aichi (?) then carried Tasuku as he suddenly tapped his chest and a small glow appeared.
" Not again, Tasuku-kun." Aichi (KHR) said as he quickly carried Tasuku, " Jeez... You shouldn't mess around with other people's powers."
" He's just a baby, so it's okay." Aichi (?) assured
Tasuku flailed his hand out as Aichi (?) held his finger near it so that he could hold onto it.
" He's a good boy." Aichi (?) said
" The previous people from another parallel world was also going to have a baby. Seeing this, do you have one?" Aichi (KHR) said
" H-Huh...? W-Well, you can say that... He's with Kai-kun right now but you probably didn't see him since he's sleeping..." Aichi (?) said, averting his gaze
" I can't tell him... I can't possibly tell him that Daichi is also Void-sama's baby..." Aichi (?) thought
However, Aichi (KHR) heard it thanks to his earring as he sensed Aichi's (?) troubled heart.
" ... You can tell me anything. If Tasuku-kun thinks you aren't a threat, then I'll believe you." Aichi (KHR) said
" Huh? I didn't say anything..." Aichi (?) said
" ... Your baby is Void's?" Aichi (KHR) ask
Aichi (?) gasped as he took a few steps back in surprise.
" Don't panic." Aichi (KHR) said as he looked behind to make sure the others weren't looking at them, " I almost had the same experience so I can at least understand how you feel."
" ... Yes... My baby belongs to Void-sama and Kai-kun... He took Kai-kun's body and... made me bear his baby..." Aichi (?) whispered
" Since you suddenly disappeared, won't he punish you?" Aichi (KHR) ask
" No... I think he'll understand... Besides, he gave Kai-kun his body back so he's not all that bad. For one year, he's been treating us well and like a family. He never abused me or Daichi. Before I arrived here, he asked me if I had really loved him but I don't know..." Aichi (?) said
" ... It's okay to be unsure. If you feel that way about Void, then there really is good in some bad things. Although, we can't say the same for our world's Voids. For us, we're constantly at war. So, if you really feel hesitant to help us in defeating this world's Void, then don't worry. I won't blame you." Aichi (KHR) assured
Tasuku cooed as Aichi (KHR) smiled.
" Tasuku-kun agrees too." Aichi (KHR) said
" He..."
" Ever since he was born, we always thought that he's something special. And we were right. He has these unknown powers that we've never seen nor heard of and he's been spreading it around in this world." Aichi (KHR) said
" Daichi too..."
" I see. Let's not keep the others waiting." Aichi (KHR) said
" Okay."
While they walked back to the others, a wail cut them off from what they were doing as they turned to the gym doors to see Kai (?) holding a brown haired baby in his arms.
" Aichi!"
" He must be hungry..." Aichi (?) said as he carried the baby
" You can go inside there to feed him." Naoki (KHR) said as he pointed to the storage room
Aichi (?) nodded and muttered a thanks before walking into the storage room.
" He's a weird one. I've never seen Aichi being so meek after middle school." Misaki (KHR) said
" ... Yeah..."
Kai's (?) eyes wandered around the room and looked at everyone before looking down and stood in a corner alone.
" ... And I've never seen Kai avoid people like that. That's not Kai-like." Miwa (KHR) said
" Doesn't he always avoid people?" Kamui (KHR) ask
" True. But not to an extent where his eyes will show that much emotion." Miwa (KHR) said
The doors opened after that as Aichi stepped inside and looked around.
" Exactly how many times have these guys been switched?" Aichi ask
" Plenty."
" I see... I have something to give to you guys. I kind of figured out a way to reverse whatever you guys used to teleport here." Aichi said as he handed Aichi (KHR) a pendant
" A pendant?"
" Yes. With this, you should be able to teleport back to your world now. It's made with some dualium crystals and my powers." Aichi replied
" I see. But we have to help you before that..." Aichi (KHR) said
" We can handle ourselves. Don't worry." Aichi assured
" ... Okay then. Everyone, gather around." Aichi (KHR) said
The others from his world gathered around him as Aichi (?) soon came out from the storage room.
" You're going back?" Aichi (?) ask
" Yeah. Take care of yourselves." Aichi (KHR) said
" Thank you... for talking to me." Aichi (?) said
Aichi (KHR) smiled and nodded before activating the pendant as they were teleported back to their world.
