Seek justice? Sorry but didnt you know that Ultraman can only theoretically sustain himself for around 3 minutes on Earth? In a moment I will be returning back to my human self so forgive me for not having the spare time to exchange blows with your distinguished self. Im sure you havent seen any tokusatsu-films where the hero revealed his true identity in advance right? This is why Im afraid youll just have to excuse my absence. After a while of being deadlocked in a staring contest with Manda Ji Bai shrugged his shoulders as he made full use of his mouth jutsu1.
Logically speaking if this had happened in the past there would be no way the knights would enjoy such lenient punishments. Not only would Ji Bai blow away the four punks into the sky with his hammer but he would have also given good Ol Manda who had so foolishly chosen to protect his students rather than properly enacting judgment a pretty good beating before finally letting the matter go to rest. However these were now extraordinary times and human society had already regarded his true identity as one of the deceased. If he were to fight against the Ol fogey Manda who was quite familiar with his moves it would inevitably arouse his suspicions regarding Ji Bais death.
After he pondered over the repercussions for a few seconds Ji Bai eventually decided against having any more involvement with him.
Oho? Its always said that the brilliance of the younger generation far outshines the old one. Is this youngster perhaps afraid of losing to an old man past his sixties? Manda smiled his eyes were squinted to the point it was no longer visible. The hands that were behind his back were astonishingly headed toward the long sword on his waist.
This esteemed lowly self here truly didnt mean anything else. I just wish to exchange a few moves with you and make some friends in the process is all Mandas gaze was fiery as he stared at the figure who was silently shifting backward.
Who would believe that? If it wasnt me who saved the day but someone else they might have needed to break a few ribs at least. Is it really okay of you to publicly protect your knights to this extent? Do you really choose to show favoritism before justice?
Alright alright what do you plan to do? Ji Bai was aware that it was impossible to leave right this instant. He made sure to fix the holster on his gloves before straightening his back and making eye contact with Manda.
In a split second Manda felt an indescribable familiarity. However he didnt really think much of it and basically just attributed it to his misperception. This humble esteemed self noticed that your excellency was well versed in the ways of a knight. Surely you must be a secular knight from some volunteer corps no? This old and worthless self of mine wouldnt want to make things too difficult for you; I just want to duel with you once. Manda stared fixedly at Ji Bai his eyes were sparkling with fighting intent.
Indeed
I was still wondering what this was all about. In that case lets quickly start and bring this matter to an end. The world is currently weeping with injustice and I have quite the heavy workload ahead of me. Ji Bai moved his neck around as he said in a nonchalant tone.
Manda slightly creased his eyebrows. Although he didnt particularly care about his reputation he was still a particularly famous knight at any rate. Even after knowing all this the Ultraman in front of him was still able to answer in such a straightforward manner. If this person wasnt just doing a Leeroy Jenkins Manda was absolutely certain that he must have been an expert in hiding.
However this was exactly what Manda wanted. He had personally witnessed the misconduct of these four knights from the beginning to the end. He wasnt a senile old fool yet; how could he not know who was in the right? The reason why he issued the challenge had more to do with the fact that this mysterious person had aroused his competitive spirit.
Good an impressively direct reply! This old self shant drag his feet any longer then! Manda retrieved the long sword hung on his waist. With his body still he took his long sword and placed it against his shoulder blade forming a knight salute.
At the same time when Manda was doing his salute Ji Bai who was at the opposite side of him suddenly threw the sword in his hand away. He then placed a speaker that had seemingly come out of nowhere on the wooden table.
??? Mandas eyebrows were creased as he observed Ji Bais actions. His nagging feeling told him that things may not be as simple as he expected with his thoughts moving in this direction the owner and the two knights on the other hand had stupefied expressions on their faces. Hello? Youre currently in battle. Be a bit serious about it alright?
Ji Bai wasnt bothered about the stares that the people were giving him at all. He seemed to be immersed in his own world as he adjusted the audio channel and pressed the button.
Wanna take you baby take me higher2 A series of rock and roll music whose up and down rhythmical beats would excite the hearts of everyone present began to blare off.
Everyone on the scene:
Ok! Lets begin! With my BGM at my side nobody will think about prevailing me. The Ultraman ahead of them rolled his shoulder slightly. He then opened his left hand and closed his right forming a special posture that Ultraman would use to beat monsters.
While Im truly grateful for the little guy ahead of me can he not embarrass himself even more? Its getting really awkward just looking at him
Even the noodle shop owner in the corner was almost at his limit. He wanted to do nothing but bury his face inside his hands.
A serious knight battle had been forcibly turned into a strange scene by this clown.
As for Ji Bai? He couldnt care less. He wasnt a knight now anyways. He could play however he desired as long as he was happy with it.
After all there are times when he wanted to set himself free.
However compared to the noodle shop owner Mandas focus was naturally not on his grandiosely clownish actions.
Sir you seem to have forgotten about your sword.
Sword? I dont need it. If I use it people might say that Im bullying you Ji Bai originally thought that he should dig his ears while saying this but he could only drop the idea as he figured he still had his costume on.
It seemed that even Manda was impacted by his words as well. As soon as they came out of Ji Bais mouth the complexion of everyone froze.
Insane! This guy is beyond insane!
For someone from the younger generation to say something like that to an appointed knight such as myself Is he actually high right now? Or have I actually grown senile without knowing it?
Besides where have you actually seen Ultraman use a sword to cut down monsters? This isnt Kamen Riders3.
Are you really serious right now? Youre not going to use a sword? Manda narrowed his eyes.
I am definitelyabsolutely and positively sure! Also can you hurry up and make a move? My BGM is about to end you know?
