Chapter 212 - Party

Jennifer began the tour, explaining the rules and regulations before finally presenting where Colosseum where they would be fighting, instructing them that they had to be there before 10 am tomorrow.

"I hope you all will enjoy your stay here" said Jenifer as the tour was winding down, "Please, make your selves comfortable. We will be having a banquet tonight, and this would be the perfect opportunity to meet the other competitors. If you need a suit or dress, merely ask the front desk. We have tailors and seamstresses ready to accommodate you, free of charge. You can even take it home with you."

"Really!?" Tsuji blinked in surprise.

"Of course" smiled Jennifer, "After all, you will be fighting for the entertainment of others. It's the least we can do."

Those lines put a small shiver up their spines as Jennifer left. Sakaki was staring at Jennifer as she left.

"Is she your type Master Sakaki?" teased Kenichi, almost causing Sakaki to jump.

"Wh-What!? Like hell there is nothing like that!" Sakaki stated.

"Are you sure about that!? Because I saw your reaction when you first saw her, your eyes narrowed and even now when she left your eyes were following him around." Kenichi said with a smile.

"Oh, looks like you are learning well Kenichi!" said Akisame, "It's good that you are aware what is happening in your surrounding"

"Hell no... stop spouting nonsense the two of you! There is nothing between us" Sakaki said as he walked away from them

Night fell as Ryozanpaku and the Shinpaku Alliance readied themselves for the banquet. Except Natsu of course who disappeared from the room assigned to him. Niijima wanted to find him so that he could fight as a member of The Shinpaku Alliance but he couldn't find him.

Miu wore a purple dress similar to what she wore in the original in Kenichi's memory. Her Hair was braided elegantly while she wore dress gloves. Saeko on the other hand wore a golden colored gown while leaving her hair open reaching almost to her h.i.p.s.

Renka had gotten a new red Cheongsam that reached that extended down to her ankles but had slits on the side so her legs were free, but in a rather provocative style so as to bait others into looking at her legs. She wore it especially to get more of Kenichi's attention which she was successful in doing.

Shigure who wore a pink dress with a large window on her c.h.e.s.t to show her cleavage, pinched Kenichi's waist.

"Oww... What the hell!? Why?" asked Kenichi

"Stop.... making the girls look at you!" Shigure said with a straight face.

"Umm.... I can't really force them you know! It's there eyes they can look whoever they want to" Kenichi tried to explain but it didn't looked like it was working as Shigure didn't reacted at all.

"It's alright Shigure until Kenichi doesn't look towards those girls everything is fine. We can't stop him from being handsome now can we" Saeko stated placating her.

Kisara and Kaname also wore beautiful dresses both showing there best features, Kaname showing her cleavage and Kisara showing her beautiful long legs.

"Well it's not only me! look at yourselves you people are making many men turn there heads as well" said Kenichi as he looked at the girls around her.

The rest of The Shinpaku alliance, Niijima opted for a suit with strange eldritch designs. Siegfried, having his own concert attire, stuck with that. Everybody else went with dresses and Tuxedos, slightly excited to be able take them home with them.

Ukita was smiling when he saw Chisato asking how she looked from Takeda when he heard someone call him "Captain Ukita, do I look good in this?" asked Shiratori in her dress.

Any more conversation ended when a light chime rang through the banquet hall before a voice was heard "Everyone it's time for the greeting of the executive producer, Smiling Fist Carlo Diego! Please direct your attention to the front."

Lights dimmed as show lights flashed towards the stage. The silence seemed to be walking towards the center stage when.....

"HAHAHAHAHA"

Everyone looked at the source of the voice above them to see Carlo Diego flipping into the Stage from above, grabbing everyone's attention.

"Welcome to the Desperate fight Of Disciples, otherwise known as D of D! I am your host, Carlo Diego, the Smiling Fist of One Shadow Nine Fist! As everyone is aware, this tournament is sponsored by the extremely wealthy but generous Fortuna. He's quite the expert in martial arts. As you all know, this fight is a worldwide tournament for young martial artists under the age of 20! Fortuna has aided YAMI regularly, and to show of thanks, I have been chosen to help host it! My motto is 'for the beauty of a fight, I will do anything!'"

The audience clapped in enthusiasm as Diego waved in appreciation before motioning them to quite down, "Right now, everyone here is a guest! Enjoy the banquet! But tomorrow, the young ones who will shed their blood will also be chosen ones! I have created a high-tech Coliseum on this island, just like the ancient Romans. However, it will not be the blood of the slaves that baptize this Coliseum with blood, but the chosen ones! In essence, tomorrow we shall open the curtains to rigorous fights that'll surpass all fights, whether past or future! Now to introduce you to the coliseum! Draw your attention to the large screen behind me!"
