Chapter 153 - Protection

After getting out of the Hotel Royals, Kenichi called Niijima and told him to increase the number of Zanshi Taish-ryuu practitioner that were keeping eyes on his family due to them buying their debt from Ryozanpaku that they incurred after attacking Ryozanpaku in the form of Dojo challenge and Medical treatment.

"Kenichi there aren't enough good practitioner that will be able to keep safe distance from your family and protect the in their time of need" explained Niijima.

"Hmm.... Niijima did Tenmon Li's daughter, Raichi Li contacted you!?" asked Kenichi

"Yes her reply came yesterday only" Niijima replied.

"Good then tell her that she and the other girl Tsukasa Yakabe will have to meet mom by accident or something get chummy with her so that they can stay right beside her and keep her safe from any danger that may come to her" Kenichi explained.

"Wow that's a good plan Kenichi. But how do you propose that they meet your mother and make her like them" asked Niijima.

Kenichi scoffed as he said "When my Mom can come to start liking an alien like you!! I am sure she won't have any problem liking those two girls"

Niijima stayed silent for few seconds then said "OK you are right about it, I will inform those girls about the mission"

"Good, now I am disconnecting I need to get out of this place" said Kenichi as he looked behind him at the main entrance of Hotel Royals as the Valet brought his Motorcycle.

"Fine then I will meet you later" Niijima.

"Yeah Ok" replied Kenichi as he disconnected the phone.

Kenichi reached the dojo during the evening and saw that there were some guests who came to the dojo. The guests were the other dojo that had challenged Ryozanpaku before who wanted to join them in their fight against Yami. It was heartwarming to see more dojo's who embraced Katsujinken instead of Satsujinken. Kenichi was especially glad to see the Tanaka family standing in the dojo as well along with Saeko who was representing her Busujima family.

"Saeko!? Shouldn't your sister be representing the Busujima family?" asked Kenichi.

"Yeah!? It's true but she is not in Japan currently." replied Saeko.

"Huh! Where did she went at this time!?" asked Kenichi

"She went to America to meet father so that she could he could advice her to help her taking the final step in the Grand Master stage" replied Saeko.

"Oh! so she finally decided to take the last step! I still don't understand why wait till now to ask her father for advice" Kenichi stated

"Well at the beginning it was to build up the foundation then later it was due to her not wanting to run the dojo" Saeko said

"Wait! What does that even mean!? If she doesn't want to run the dojo she doesn't have to and why would she have to wait until she becomes Grand Master to run a dojo. Even a Master Class martial artists run dojo!" questioned Kenichi.

"Yeah! but our Busujima family has a tradition that once someone reaches Grand Master class they will have to open a dojo and take at least one disciple under there wing to pass there teachings to the future generation" answered Saeko.

"Oh! OK now I understand she was just being lazy" concluded Kenichi.

"Yeah, you can think it like that!" Saeko said nodding her head and then both of them bursted in laughter.

Back at one of Yomi's base, Boris threw himself into training once more. While practicing Combat Sambo, he couldn't take his mind of Kenichi. How strong his Ki(internal energy) was and the strength behind his kick wasn't foreign to him even though his footing wasn't good. He knew that even though he had challenged him the chances of him winning weren't much.

"Perhaps I should ask Tirawit Kokin" mumbled Boris, "His analysis is just as good as mine."

"hoo, I see you're still here" commented Radin Tidat Jihan as he entered the room, "It's been a while. I heard that you rushed straight into the enemy's main base, and were put under house arrest because of it."

Boris ignored him as he swiftly got his dummy into a choke hold, slowly crushing it's fake neck.

"If it had been me, I would have ignored the orders and killed that strongest disciple instead of just challenging him with the badge" continued Jihan.

"Orders are absolute!" replied Boris before swiftly decapitating the dummy's head with a forceful chokehold.

He then looked at Jihan remembering all the information he has of this comrade of his [The disciple of Silkwat Jenazad, the older brother of Raden Tidat Lona, and practitioner of Pencak Silat. Jihan is the Crown Prince of Tidat. Coming from royalty, he acts in an aristocratic manner and particularly despises revolutionists. Claiming 99.9% of the world's population are made up of worthless commoners, Jihan ranks himself, to be the 0.1% who will achieve royalty and reign over the commoners. He is not the type to admit defeat and can use his subordinates as a distraction in a fight and doesn't care about them as long as he wins.] These types of people are whom Boris dislikes the most. Especially in his case where he always make sure that his subordinates don't lose their life on a mission.

"And after a single exchange I was able to conclude that I would most likely be no match for him." Boris finished.

"With a single exchange?" questioned Jihan, "Have you been smoking something weird or Were you drunk that time or now?"

"I take no drunk and don't drink alcohol and always maintain a healthy diet to perform my best" shot back Boris "But the truth is as such, his Ki was really strong and his kick throwed me 3 to 4 meters back. I couldn't gauge his full strength but I can tell that he is most likely above all of us in the Yomi. Only Suparna, Satomi Kajima, Ethan Stanley, Tirawat Kokin and perhaps you yourself could possibly match him"

"And that's very low estimate" added Boris to himself, "They would have to team up."
