1 Kyo: The fourth member of the Shiseiten... Yuya: But... Yuya: But that's a... Akari: Kyo... 2 Text: Samurai Deeper Kyo #166 - The Last Shiseiten Akari: Kyo... I've finally found you... (Akari is talking *really* sweetly and girlishly for the next few pages) Text: Chapter 166 - The Last Shiseiten 3 Kyo: Long time no see... "Akari"... Akari: Oh Kyo, it's been so long... You move quickly, but I've heard so much about the carnage you've left in your wake~ Akari: Looking for you really was troublesome, you know... Akari: But I had a feeling you three would be here! Akari: Bon and Akira look just as terrified as ever, don't they? Yuya: Huh? What's got them so worked up? Akari: It's just like old times... All of us together with something to fight for... Yuya: There's no way such an elegant and beautiful woman could be "The Worst!" Tora: Hehe, I've got you all figured out... you were just trying to scare me away from the hot chick! Bon: .... 4 Tora: I mean it... I've found my dream girl... I can't believe such an *elegant* and *beautiful* woman hangs around with thr rest of those Shiseiten... she's like a rose among thorns... I wouldn't mind letting her take care of me~~ Akari: I'd do anything for you~ Tora: She's not "The Worst..." she's THE BEST! Akari: Oh, my poor, dear Kyo, you look so worn out... may I tend to your wounds? (You poor sweetie...) Akari: And those three losers have been with you the whole time? They must have been slacking off... Yuya: Whoa, they're still in a state of shock... Akari: Hey, you three, just what have you been doing?! Bon: Ah... uh... wait! I mean, we all only just got together! Akari: ...I see. And my little Bon is unhurt? Bon: Uh... yeah! I mean, I've got a few scrapes, but except for this eye... I mean, it's like a badge of honor and all, but... Akari: I know... it's troublesome, isn't it? Bon: Y... yeah!! Akari: Well then... 5 Akari: I'LL GIVE YOU SOME MORE WOUNDS TO MAKE UP FOR IT!! 6 Akari: YOU'RE IN THE SHISEITEN! We're supposed to be like four GODS OF WAR, serving under Onime no Kyo, the strongest man alive!! Akari: You're a disgrace to your own organisation - have any of you worked as hard as I have?! Akari: No? You're all pathetic and lazy!! Akira: Hey, that's not fair! We've been doing a lot of stuff... Hotaru: Bon, are you okay? Bon: I've been better. Akira: And more importantly, Akari, just what have you been doing all this time? Just how hard were you looking for Kyo?! Akari: Akira... are you sure you wanna open your big mouth? Akari: I think that's enough... Akari: Akira!! You're a big boy now - do you still need your mama to change your diapers? (Actually, Akari says that Akira's blue spot has disappeared - most Japanese babies are born with a blue spot above their butt that's a genetic marker of Mongolian ancestry. It fades around age 5, so saying that it's disappeared is like saying "you're not a baby anymore.") Akari: Bon!! You say you're so strong, but you're really just a lightweight! Akari: Hotaru!! Are you still getting so pissed off when Bon beats you at arm wrestling that you blow snot in his food? 7 Akari: Well, well, well~ Akira: That's going too far!! Bon: Hotaru! Did you really do that?! Hotaru: I'm not saying anything... Bon: Damn you, Akari, you've got the attitude of a bratty kid! Akira: Yeah! I mean, grow up already!! Akira: What kind of "friend" would refuse to give somebody medical treatment, or tell embarassing stories about them?! Akira: And I am NOT a baby! (He actually says that he doesn't have a blue ass - see note above~) Bon: Hey! Akira! Calm down!! Hotaru: Come on, let's go Akari: What? Did I hear you complaining about me? Akari: I'll make it so you punks NEED medical treatment... 8 Akari: HAHAHAHAHAHA!! If not for me, do you really think any of you would still be alive in this world of danger? Akari: It's all because I have the power to heal!! Hotaru: Evil... Hotaru: She's evil... Akira: I swear, one day she's going to kill us all... Akari: You talentless worker bees have a few pathetic skills, but... Akari: I, the famouse Akari-sama of the Shiseiten, am like the queen bee~!! Akari: And between a common worker and a queen, there's no contest in power~! (No contest in sex appeal, either~) Akari: HAHAHAHA!! Yuya, Sasuke and Tora: ... Yuya: [...WTF?] Yuya: [So these...] Yuya: [Are the four Shiseiten...] 9 Akari: So that's how it is, then~? Yuya, Sasuke and Tora: ... Akari: Oh Kyo, just how did you end up with those three incompetant idiots? A Shiseiten without me just isn't the same~! Akari Kyo... while I was gone, you missed me, right? Akari: But it's okay now... we're together now... just promise to keep our little secret, and I'll fix you up~ *heart* Akari: Speaking of promises... you still remember our old promise, right? Kyo: ...Yeah. That's right. Yuya: Promise? Benitora: I guess so! 10 Tora: Hey, Kyo, how come Akari-tan pays so much attention to you when you're not even hurt? What's really going on between you two? Akari: ... Kyo: You really wanna know? Me and Akari are... Sasuke: She's young and pretty. What would she want to do with you? Akari: Oh?! Waaai! You really think I'm pretty~? (And from a child, even!) Bon: That's an easy way of putting it... Akari: Well, you see, a person needs strength to recover from an injury, right? Akari: And you know that a little cut will heal in time? Akari: Of course, people have various speeds of healing, but there's a certain limit to regeneration. So if you were to cut your arm, it would heal, but if you cut it off, you can't grow it back like a lizard can grow back its tail. AKari: But my ability is to support a person's own strength and guide it to heal or regenerate the body even better than a lizard could. I could even grow back an arm! Hotaru: How about illnesses? Bon: How should I know? Akira: I don't think it works like that. Tora: Wow, you Mibu are so cool... you can really do something like that? Akari: You're doubting me? Tora: Please forgive me... Akari: Tch, I guess it can't be helped. 11 AKari: Take a good look as I, Akari-sama, show off my skills! Akari: And in exchange... I want to hear a secret~ Bon, Akira and Hotaru: Here it comes... Tora: A secret, huh? What kind of huge secret could I possibly have...? Tora: I'm too straightforward!! Akari: Really? Tora: Really! Akari: All, how boring... You're too serious! Tora: I'm always serious about trying to get laid! Everybody: ... Yuya?: [Whoa, what's gotten into Benitora?] Everybody: ... Akari: That's funny! Akari: It's hilarious! You totally want me! HAHAHAHA!! (so serious!!) Hotaru: It's not really a secret... Bon and Akira: What's so funny?! Sasuke: ...I don't get it. Akari: Well, that was fun! Now I'll tell you you a really juicy secret~ Akari: Or maybe I should take care of those wounds first~ 11 Akari: Oh strength that flows through this man... Akari: I humbly request thee to heed my call... Tora: Huh?! Tora: Hey... it doesn't hurt anymore!! Did you heal me?! Akari: Do be careful, though - I only cleaned up the surface wounds~ (It takes too much time and energy to handle internal damage) Tora: Whoa, thank you so much! You're one amazing girl! Akari: Hmm? Aha, well, obviously~ I *am* the strongest of the Shiseiten, after all~ Bon: "Most evil", more like it... Bon: Oh well... 12 Bon: I guess you've still got that arm, huh? Akari: Well, of course. I don't know what you're talking about~ Akira: Whatever, just get a move on and heal us. HOtaru: If that's what you say... maybe you really do want to keep that technique? Tora: I'm cured! Look, look! Akira: WHAT?! You might be a cute kid but you're really just a brat! Hotaru: Oof! Akira: Here we go again... Yuya: [Wow, she really is amazing... She healed him with a smile like it was nothing, but I could tell that was really high-level Buddhist magic... is there anything she *can't* do?] Yuya: [But there's something even more special about her...] Yuya: [I've never seen "The Demon Killer of a Thousand Men" show fear of dying even once... Then same goes for his comrades.] Yuya: [Those guys wouldn't be afraid of the Grim Reaper himself, but they're afraid of one person...] 13 -14 Yuya: [But this is it...] Yuya: [The legendary Shiseiten are back in action!!] 15 Kyo: What's with that surprised look, dog-face? Kyo: Akari's real power isn't something lame like healing, anyway. Kyo: She's got something way more badass than that... Yuya: Something better than healing? Kyo: I guess you'll see the next time we have a good fight. Kyo: Nobody's seen the true power of the Shiseiten since the last time we were all together... Kyo: This is gonna be fun... Yuya: Whoa... does that mean the Shiseiten are even stronger when they're all together?! You mean they get even better?! Kyo: What you're going to see is going to make history. Yuya: ...huh?! Kyo: It's going to be fucking insane... 16 Tokito: Man, this sucks! Hishigi: .... Tokito: Those Goyousei were totally useless! Now what are we supposed to tell the Mibu troops!! Tokito: So... what are you going to do, Fubuki-san? Do you think you can handle the Demon Child when he's awakened? Fubuki: .... Fubuki: I think I've come to a decision... 17 Fubuki: I will definitely kill Onime no Kyo... Hishigi: .... Tokito: Yeah, you'll finish him off! The quicker that guy dies, the better! Tokito: Fubuki-san, please, let me do it! Tokito: If we kill the Demon Child now, then all those who secretly supported Muramasa will be exposed! Come on, let me do it!! Hishigi: ... Fubuki: No, Tokito, we can't have that. Fubuki: We have those four... Fubuki: I've already called the Juunishinshou again. It's time we released those monsters... Tokito: Whoa, are you serious?! Those guys?! Fubuki: Yes... Tokito: ...Don't tell me you're bringing back Nobunaga. 18 Tokito: In order to advance our own goals, the Mibu Clan lent him twelve soldiers... TOkito: However, we held back the four Berserker Juunishinshou that were still in the experimental phase... Kubira, Mekira, Haira and Indara. Tokito: Without their extreme power, Nobunaga's revival was a faulty plan. Nobunaga was doomed from the start. But if you can control them, Fubuki-san, there's no need for most of the other soldiers~ Tokito: They've been locked deep in the dungeons all the time, but those four are stronger than the Goyousei! It's time we set the beasts free... Tokito: Yeah, they'll take care of everything! But wait, does this mean it's time for Oda Nobunaga's true revival? Hishigi: .... Fubuki: Hishigi... Fubuki: I think it's time we found the last Taishirou... he's with *him*, though... Hishigi: I'll have him soon. 19 Fubuki: There was a time when he was unrivaled in power... Fubuki: And then he was defeated. I thin we should revive him, and let him satisfy his anger and resentment towards Onime no Kyo and Mibu Kyoushirou... Fubuki: With the help of the Sixth Demon Lord of Heaven (Nobunaga's title), we'll control the world... Tokito: Whoohoo! Hehehehe, and it's not just Kyo... he'll kill them all! Tokito: This is going to be so much fun!! Tokito: We'll make the humans remember what it's like to know fear... they will prostrate themselves before te awesome strength of our clan!! Tokito: Finally... 20 Tokito: This world will be a hell littered with corpses... the seas will flow with blood... Tokito: Fufufufufufu.... Tokito: HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!
