SDK Chapter 218 - Down the Drain! 1 Shinrei: I shall defeat them!! Hotaru: No, I will. Shinrei: I won't repeat myself again!! Hotaru: I thought you were half dead. Shinrei: I'm doing better than you are!! Both: I was right... Both: THERE IS NO WAY YOU'RE RELATED TO ME!! 2 Shinrei: Damn it... if I weren't hurt, I'd take Keikoku out in one hit! Hotaru: Hey, try not to drop dead. Shinrei: Sh... Shinrei: SHUT UP!! Hotaru: Didn't I tell you...? Hotaru: I HATE WATER!! 3 Shinrei: I won't feel indebted to you... who do you think is left to clean up after your mistakes!? Hotaru: So what if people look down on you? I do. Shinrei: WHAT!? Shinrei: You bastard!! Who do you think you owe your life to!? Hotaru: Myself. Shinrei: That's a lie!! Who did you copy from during the Goyousei Written Entrance Examination!? Hotaru: I had the flu, so I was saving myself from extra mental strain while I recovered. Shinrei: What...!? What kind of reason is that!? Shinrei: Not only are you stupid, but you have an attitude too! Hotaru: I am deeply sorry from the bottom of my heart. Shinrei: Quiet! You're deliberately provoking me! Why can't you be more obidient and quiet!? Hotaru: It's not like you're quiet. Shinrei: Don't talk back to me! You should meditate or soemthing! Hotaru: Shut up. You're self-righteous, anal retentive little prick. I hate you. Shinrei: I don't care if you like me or not!! 4 Shinrei: I'll cool you off... Shinrei: Damn it... my wound opened...!! 5 Shinrei: Keikoku... you... Hotaru: I wasn't finished insulting you. I'd hate it if you died first. Hotaru: Those guys are annoying. Shinrei: You're right. Hotaru: Let's end this now. Hotaru: Ready? Shinrei: Uh-huh. 6 no text 7 no text 8 Shinrei: Well, that's that. Shinrei: Keikoku... 9 Hotaru: Yup. Shinrei: ...That... Shinrei: That was... Shinrei: Cheating... Hotaru: Well, I'm going. Gotta find Kyo and the rest. Shinrei: Keikoku... you... you bastard... I won't forget this... 10 Shinrei: ...It's dead. Hotaru: Wow, is that one of those experimental subjects? Weird. Didn't think I'd see one here. Shinrei: Idiot... where do you think we are!? Shinrei: This is the castle of the Former Aka no Ou and the Taishirou... even we Goyousei couldn't just walk right through the gates!! Shinrei: There has to be a reason for all of this... Hotaru: But we're still here. Shinrei: ..... Shinrei: What is this underground maze...!? 11 Sasuke: I don't sense anybody nearby... I guess we landed pretty far from everybody else. Kyo: Either that, or they're dead. Sasuke: ...Oh well. Sasuke: .... Sasuke: Hey, Onime no Kyo, mind if I ask you something? Sasuke: Why do you... 12 Sasuke: Why do you have red eyes like the Former Aka no Ou...? Kyo: .... Kyo: Why are you asking something like that... Sarutobi? Sasuke: That's because... Kyo: Whatever. I'm Onime no Kyo, you're Sarutobi Sasuke of the Sanada Juuyuushi. Kyo: We're no more and no less. Sasuke: ...Onime. Sasuke: He sounds like Yukimura... Sasuke: [But I felt it the first time I met him...] 13 Sasuke: [Something about him that reminded me of myself... at first I thought it was because we're both from the Sea of Trees.] Sasuke: [But...] Sasuke: [But what if Onime no Kyo is the perfect soldier they've been trying to create!?] Sasuke: [And maybe that's why Onime no Kyo and I both have red eyes...!?] Sasuke: [But there's no way the Mibu Clan would let some lab-created mutant take the throne...] Sasuke: [Unless the FOrmer Aka no Ou himself is one of us...] Sasuke: [He knows the Mibu's secret...] Sasuke: [What could possibly be so horrible...?] Sasuke: [And every Mibu brat has been trying to get at Onime no Kyo...] Sasuke: [I wonder if the only one who knows why is Onime no Kyo himself...] Kyo: We're going around in circles. Sasuke: Huh? How... 14 Kyo: We're lost. Sasuke: What was with that serious look...? Kyo: ...Hmm. Kyo: This sprawling underground maze is part of the Yin-Yang Palace... Once you're in here, there's no getting out. For ordinary people, at least. Kyo: ...Fuck this stupid place. How many times have I been in here...? Sasuke: Onime no Kyo! You've been here before!? Kyo: We're almost there. Sasuke: !? 15 Sasuke: !! Sasuke: What... Sasuke: An earthquake? Sasuke: The whole place is shaking... Sasuke: No... that's not right... Sasuke: It's coming from above!! 16 Shihoudou: Ooh? Did you get taller? Kyo: ...Che. Shihoudou: Hmm, Little Oni-chan? (Oni as in "demon", not oniichan as in "brother") Shihoudou: So you've come to visit Auntie Shihoudou's house~? Sasuke: ...This is a house? Shihoudou: You're so mean, Oni-chan!! 17 Shihoudou: You didn't say hello to your Auntie Shihoudou!! Shihoudou: Buuuuu~~!! Sasuke: Buuuu...? Shihoudou: And just look at you, Little Oni!! Shihoudou: You've grown up all strong and manly!! Shihoudou: Have you broken a lot of girls' hearts!? Shihoudou: You're still as rude as ever, huh!? Shihoudou: Kya!! No way! Little Oni doesn't have hair down there!? How dreadful!! Kyo: ..... Shihoudu: Well you know what they say about guys with big hands... don't tell me it's limp!? HAHAHA!! Shihoudou: So you don't like girls? Or are you just uptight? You've got to put out if you want to be popular! Sasuke: ...She's really crude. And way too friendly... Shihoudou: Even if you are uptight... Shihoudou: I bet you wouldn't be making that face if I were your girlfriend~ 18 Shihoudou: 10.00!! Sasuke: She's good! Kyo: This fucking dump is as ugly as ever... Shihoudou: Little Oni, what a foul mouth you have! Muramasa-chan raised you better than that! Shihoudou: Oh well, I should have known... Even when he was little, Muramasa was absentminded - totally not like Fubuki! Shihoudou: Anyway, Little Oni, you owe me BIG from last time... Kyo: .... 19 Sasuke: ...She treats Onime no Kyo like a baby, and she knew Muramasa and Fubuki when they were kids... who is this woman!? Shihoudou: Oh, and Little Mouse!! Sasuke: !? Sasuke: L... Little Mouse!? Shihoudou: Yes! You're so little and cute - from now on, you're Little Mouse!! It fits you perfectly!! Sasuke: Damn you... Shihoudou: Awww, look, he's mad!! Shihoudou: You're just a little mousie lost in a maze!! Shihoudou: Don't worry, I'll help you, Mousie-chan!! Shihoudou: This is the lowest level of the Yin-Yang Palace - the Underground Maze... Unlike the glitzy upper levels, this is where all the garbage goes, and everything is hidden... Shihoudou: Once you fall down here, that's it - there's no escape~! Shihoudou: You could say this is the castle's toilet!! Haha, a toilet!! It's full of shit!! Shit!!! Sasuke: ....... Sasuke handwritten: [She really is crude...] 20 Shihoudou: And I'm the queen of all this filth... I'm the master of the undergound maze!! So you could say I'm full of shit!! Shihoudou: So I know every little thing about the Mibu - the pretty things and the ugly things. Sasuke: She knows everything...? Sasuke: [So she must know the Mibu's great secret!! What is this person!?] Shihoudou: Down here, there's only one person in charge - ME! Shihoudou: So if you want to get out of here, you do what I say~!! You had better watch out!! Shihoudou: But Little Oni, you already know the way, right? Sasuke: We don't need any damned babysitter... Kyo: Don't be too cocky, Sarutobi... Kyo: She might seem like a pig from the way she talks and this dump she lives in, but don't let her fool you. She's got the best sword skills in the Mibu... Kyo: I can honestly say I've never won against her... Sasuke: What!? 21 Kyo: In all the world, there are three people I've never been able to beat. The first was Muramasa... and the second is her... Kyo: Auntie Shihoudou, Former Taishirou. Sasuke: [What...!?] Sasuke: {She's... a former Taishirou!?] Shihoudou: You losers are in need of an ass-whooping!! Shihoudou: 1, 2, 3 - let's go!!
