"Any opinions gentlemen?" continued Sho, "His master said that he could easily raise another disciple on par with Jihan straight away.... but that doesn't matter. What's more interesting.... is who's next?"

As each one of them kept their faces stoic, each one had their own thought processes. Tirawit, Cho, and Chikage didn't really care as they would take care of the situation when it presented itself. Rachel was pondering where to go to attract attention as usual, and her younger brother Ethan was more concerned about where Rachel was going to go and hope not to get in trouble as usual. Boris however pondered about the short exchanged he had with Kenichi. Just how strong was Kenichi? Just defeating Jihan wasn't enough information to go by. His gaze fell upon Ryuto as he looked around the room. Perhaps asking someone who had actually fought Kenichi and was currently alive would give him some more information, even if he did look like lost terribly.

As for Ryuto... he could only sigh as he felt sorry for the next person who will fight against Kenichi. Being in Yomi now, he could tell that he was probably the weakest member of the group, even before his fight with Kenichi. Still, the fact that Kenichi not only completely overwhelmed him despite using Seidou Gouitsu, but even he could tell with his inexperienced eyes that Kenichi was levels beyond them. It frustrated him that he was so far behind him, but he was also thankful that Kenichi managed to fix his ki network during the fight. Ogata hadn't cared about the consequences, just the results, which made Ryuto lose some respect towards him.

Still, he wouldn't say anything that would give Yomi the upper hand, as he wanted to fight Kenichi once more when he was recovered.

Ryozapaku Dojo

Kenichi, Miu, Apachai, Renka, Saeko and Shigure came back to the dojo. Though Saeko wanted to go home but Miu insisted that she stays with her for the night as there was no one in Saeko's home since her sister went to States.

"We Are Back!!" shouted Kenichi as he opened the dojo doors,

But instead the usually vibrant masters of his were silent, even his Master Sakaki who would be seen drinking usually wasn't drinking and had a serious face when he looked at Kenichi.

"Kenichi! you are back!" Kensei asked, "How was your trip!?"

"Master Kensei is asking about the trip and isn't doing anything perverted!?? Something is really wrong! What happened!?" asked Kenichi

"There have been a big problem Kenichi" spoke Elder Hayato.

"What can be a big problem for you Elder!?" asked Kenichi now becoming serious as well.

"What is it Grandfather!?" Miu asked.

"Yes, please tell us Papa!" Renka asked as well.

"You all should sit down, Akisame will be coming any second after which we will tell you everything!?" Elder Hayato stated.

Seeing that they won't be getting any answer until Akisame comes back, they sat down and surprisingly Kensei offered them Tea.

As Kensei served the Tea, Akisame entered the dojo room and stopped on his tracks when he saw everyone that was present there.

"'Master Akisame, you are back. Now tell me what has happened the others are saying that they won't speak until you are back what is it" asked Kenichi.

"Are those girls ok" asked Elder Hayato

"Yes they are still unconscious but there life is not in danger and it won't affect them in the future as well, luckily the guards they were wearing helped them otherwise there injuries could have been more serious" Akisame said.

"What-What!? What are you people talking about" Renka asked.

"Sigh.... Kenichi I am sorry to tell you... but it looks like someone has kidnapped your mother an-" Akisame was interrupted as Kenichi shouted "NO!!"

As he shouted he released his Ki (internal energy) filled with killing intent "Who!? How!? Why!?"

"We don't know who it was!? Why they did it? But we do know how they did even if we are not fully sure about it!?" Kensei said.

"The girls that were protecting your mother are currently in my clinic and were grievously injured when we found them but thankfully we found them on time and treated them but they still haven't regain their consciousness" Akisame said.

Just as Akisame talked about the girls, Kenichi stood up and ran towards Akisame's clinic to check on the girls and see of they have regained their consciousness.

"Wait for us Kenichi!?" shouted Miu as she, Renka and Saeko followed right after him.

"Where is Honoka!?" Shigure asked as she stood up as well.

"She and Katase are sleeping in Miu's room but they don't know about the kidnapping!?" Kensei stated.

"Good!?" Shigure said after which she also ran out of the room following the others.

At Akisame's Clinic

Kenichi entered the clinic followed by the girls and they saw Raichi Li and Tsukasa Yakabe lying on the medical bed as there arms, legs, waist and heads wrapped in bandages.

"Oh my god, who did that to them!?" Miu said.

"There injuries look really bad" Saeko said.

"They are but I need to know who was the one who kidnapped my mother" Kenichi said.

"What are you going to do Kenichi!? They are unconscious, so how could they talk anything to you Kenichi!?" Miu said.

"I will have to woke them up!" Kenichi stated.

""No!"" shouted all four girls at once.

"You are not in your right mind Kenichi!" Saeko said.

"Relax i am not going to hurt them at all! Instead I will help them to get better" Kenichi stated.

"What are you going to do Kenichi!?" asked Shigure.

"Something Which I have become good at!" Kenichi answered as he walked towards the two girls bed at sat between the two grabbing their hand and started using his ki (internal energy) to run into the girls bodies to heal them.

After continuously healing Katase's illness Kenichi have become better at using his Ki to heal people which was clearly showing effects as he could feel the two girls injury healing more specially their head injury cause of which they were unconscious.
