Hiroshi Vs Akuma, The Ice Tyrant

Akuma: Prepare... TO DIE!

Hiroshi takes his stance

Akuma: ICICLE CRASH!

Akuma uses his ice manipulation to lift 10 chunks of ice from the ground and waves his fingers which carves the Chunks into sharp icicles

Hiroshi Jumps back. Each Icicle aimed at him. He barely dodges them all.

Hiroshi uses the Varkox meter Shinzo gave him.

Hiroshi: [Shocked] 325K!? He must be in the 'α' (alpha) Grade of the Tyrants!

Akuma: ICICLE CRASH!

Akuma, again releases the icicles towards Hiroshi.

Hiroshi again dodges them

Akuma: [groans in frustration] why do you run, you coward! FROZEN BOULDERS!

This time, Akuma extends his hand upwards, creating a big boulder of pure ice and throws it at Hiroshi

Hiroshi: INFERNAL SLASHES!

Hiroshi creates the Fire Slashes by slashing in air. The Boulder is cut to pieces.

Akuma: ICICLE CRASH!

Hiroshi: FLAMING SLASH 'N DASH!

The Icicles are released. Hiroshi dashes a little forward and slashes using his daggers. All the Icicles are either cut down, or deflected.

Akuma: I see... You are fond of your daggers.

Akuma takes out a Sword made of pure ice from his back.

Akuma: My Sword! A collectible piece, Purely Hand carved from Ice! A true Masterpiece that is sturdy enough to be used in intense battles! Let's see how you do against it.

Akuma dashes at Hiroshi.

Hiroshi Prepares for a close combat.

As soon as Akuma comes near, he starts moving his sword rapidly. Akuma replies with similar, random slashes.

Their slashes start syncing, slowly, their clash gets intense.

The clashing of their weapons emitted orange and Icy-blue sparks.

The sound of the clash was louder than literal bullets. Sparks rushing everywhere.

Akuma Jumps Back.

Hiroshi looks at him, confused.

Akuma: AVALANCHE!

Akuma extends his sword forwards and generates an avalanche out of nowhere using his ice powers.

Hiroshi Jumps, trying to avoid the avalanche.

He avoids, the avalanche disappears.

While Hiroshi is mid-air, Akuma uses another attack.

Akuma: ICICLE CRASH!

The Icicles rush towards Hiroshi

Hiroshi: BLAZING TORNADO!

Hiroshi spins fast. The Tornado of fire causes the Icicles to be deflected. One of the Icicles crash at a pillar, the crystal between it shatters. Akuma Groans in pain.

Akuma: [groaning in pain] you Brat! Die!

POLAR STORM!

Akuma swings his sword Horizontally. The entire arena fills with chilly winds that get stronger every second.

Hiroshi: [in mind] I got it! He got angry when I broke that Crystal. He even felt pain. Maybe, just like Riyaku's weakness was his Blood, Akuma's Weakness are those crystals!

The chilly winds intensify. Hiroshi shivers.

Hiroshi: [shivering] FLAME COMET!

A large sized comet is created.

Hiroshi releases it, and it causes the chilly winds to stop.

Akuma: FROZEN BOULDER!

Hiroshi: FLAMING SLASH 'N DASH!

The Boulder is thrown. Hiroshi dashes to escape and reaches near an ice crystal and slices it. The crystal is destroyed.

Akuma: [Grunts in pain] This brat knows my weakness! How?! I can't let him destroy the Crystals!

ABSOLUTE ZERO!

Akuma stabs his Sword in the ground. Ice crackles. The entire arena gets more and more chilly. A Grounded wave is released towards Hiroshi's legs and Hits. A big area is created around Hiroshi which freezes him.

Akuma: [laughs] Now, you'll freeze to death! The temperature in that area is now at 0 Kalvin! Which means Negative 273 Degrees Celsius! Absolute Zero! [Laughs] Here, all the subatomic particles stop moving due to the extremely low temperature!

Hiroshi is frozen solid. Suddenly, a beam of light radiates from the Pendant in Hiroshi's Neck. The Red Mark in Hiroshi's Left hand glows even more Red.

Akuma: [Shocked] What?!

The Pendant's radiation drastically increased the temperature. Hiroshi is now unbound of ice.

The Mark caused Hiroshi's Flames to intensify and Heat up even more

Hiroshi: [in mind, confused] huh?! This pendant! It saved me! And this Mark... This intensified my flames...

Akuma: Why won't you Just DIE!?

FREEZING RAY!

Akuma extends his sword. Releasing a powerful beaming ray of ice energy

Hiroshi dashes to avoid

The ground where it touches freezes even more. Akuma keeps moving the ray's direction to hit Hiroshi.

Hiroshi: FIRE BLAST!

Hiroshi releases an X-shaped fire cross that is aimed at Akuma. It barely misses, but makes Akuma flinch that causes the Freezing Ray to stop.

Akuma: [mockingly] Hah! You missed!

Sound of something shattering comes from behind. Turns out, The Attack caused total two Crystals at once.

Hiroshi: [smirks] Three birds, one stone. Stopped your attack and broke two crystals! Total four crystals Broken. Six left.

Akuma: [groaning in pain] I won't spare you!

AVALANCHE!

Hiroshi Jumps

Hiroshi: SCORCHING DOWNFALL!

He releases hundreds of Blaze Embers. Taking down Three crystals at once.

Akuma collapses to the ground, clutching at his chest, groaning in immense pain.

Hiroshi: Yes! Three down! Three more left! Hope that Shinzo is Doing fine...

[Meanwhile, at the Ice Castle]

Shinzo has trapped all the golems and ice troops in nets

Shinzo: [overconfident] So easy! I wonder why Hiroshi gave me this work.

Suddenly, the ground shakes a little. All the ice golems and Troops melt to soft snow.

Shinzo: [shocked] what the hell?!

They all merge together slowly. A big leg of a beast is formed. Then another leg. Then the massive body, then the Hands. And a big head is then made.

Shinzo stands in front of a giant, really giant Golem of ice.

The golem bellows, the entire castle shakes.

Instead of attacking, the golem falls upon Shinzo. Trapping him and making in hard for him to breathe.

Shinzo: [struggling to breathe] what is this?! Please... Hiroshi... Make it quick... Or i'll die..!

[At Akuma's Arena]

Hiroshi: He is hurt badly. And is weak. I can easily destroy the remaining crystals.

Hiroshi walks towards a pillar. His daggers, ready to slice.

He Tries to stab and destroy the crystal.

Suddenly, a thick, colder later of ice surrounds the Crystal. The remaining crystals are also surrounded by it.

Hiroshi's daggers are unable to cut through that layer of ice

Hiroshi: [confused] what?! Why can't my daggers cut through?!

Sound of ice crackling loudly comes from behind.

Hiroshi turns around.

He sees that Akuma, collapsed to the ground, is accumulating the ice of His arena and piling it up on his body.

Akuma: [Laughing, with pain] You might have seen older, weaker Tyrants... But you never saw what we newer Tyrants can do... This is... My...

FINAL FORM, YETI!

The ice sticks to his body. He slowly and gradually transform.

Within a few moments a Beast of pure ice, eight times larger than Hiroshi is created. Spikes coming out of his body. His face was covered in Ice. His hair turned Spiky. His eyes Turned Purely red, Like a Beast. A chilly aura surrounding him. His claws of ice, sharper than Hiroshi's daggers.

Akuma, now in the Form of a Yeti, Roars Loudly.

His Roar shakes the entire Arena.

Hiroshi: [Shocked] this is something unexpected! He has so immense power! If I do not destroy the remaining three Crystals, I will be dead in no time!

Akuma: [in a beast like voice] You'll not survive!

ICE SPIKES!

Akuma stomps on the ground. The stomps generates a big chain of multiple Ice Spikes.

Hiroshi Barely Avoids by Jumping. The tip of one of the Spikes left a cut on Hiroshi's Left Arm

Hiroshi: [grunts in pain] I need to break the Crystals..!

FLAME COMET!

Hiroshi releases the Comet. It Melts the ice around the crystals for a few seconds. Akuma Releases a ray of ice from his hands Then, the ice layer grows back.

Hiroshi: [in mind] I have a really less time as Akuma can regenerate the layers. I have to instantly destroy the crystals after melting the layer. I need to be quick!

Akuma: Your Little Shenanigans won't hurt me anymore!

TUNDRA CLAWS!

Akuma slashes on the ground using his claws. A cold tearing wave of ice energy is released towards Hiroshi.

Hiroshi: SCORCHING DOWNFALL!

Hiroshi Jumps above and Releases the Embers. They hit Akuma's head, making him unable to see for a few seconds.

Hiroshi: FLAME COMET!

The comet again melts the Ice around The Crystal. Akuma takes longer to regenerate the Ice layer as he can't see properly due to the previous attack.

Hiroshi: EMBER BURST!

Embers are released towards the Crystals. One of them breaks. Akuma releases the Ice Ray to regenerate the Ice Layers but is too late now.

Akuma: [grunts in pain] You BRAT! I won't let you destroy any other Crystal of mine!

Hiroshi: ENGULFING FLAMES!

Hiroshi's daggers cover in flames. He dashes towards the Crystal. He passes from under Akuma's Legs. Akuma fails to stop him.

The flames of the Daggers make it easy for the Daggers to cut through. Another crystal is Destroyed. Akuma Groans in pain. His ice, slowly melting.

The last remaining Crystal was on the opposite side. Right behind Akuma.

Hiroshi thought it would be easy to pass through as Akuma was in pain.

Hiroshi: only the Final One remains!

ENGULFING FLAMES!

Hiroshi dashes, in hope of destroying the last Crystal. Suddenly, Akuma Extends his hand and Grabs Hiroshi.

He Brings him near his face, where Hiroshi can smell the rotten smell of Akuma's Breath.

Akuma: You can't run away now!

Hiroshi: [disgusted] your breath smells like shit!

Akuma, in anger, tightens his grip and crushes Hiroshi's Ribs.

Hiroshi groans in immense pain.

Akuma: did that feel good? I guess no. Maybe you need more.

Akuma uses his long claws and Penetrates Hiroshi's Chest.

Hiroshi's Blood splatters from his chest. Blood droplets spray on Akuma's Face. He smiles. 

Hiroshi groans in unbearable pain, His voice breaking into a scream of agony as Akuma's claws buried inside of his chest.

Akuma throws Hiroshi away with force. Hiroshi crashes on the ice floor. The floor breaks. Hiroshi's pain increases.

Hiroshi: [clutching at his chest] It hurts! My chest! It really hurts!

The area where Akuma's claws went in, Hiroshi's blood froze. Ice spread across the hole in his chest.

Akuma: My ice powers will slowly freeze inside of your body. Freezing your blood. Then, your organs. Then, your heart and your Brain. You'll soon be a frozen corpse. A legend, turned to a Myth.

Hiroshi remained on the ground for a bit. Then, he stop groaning. And stood up, ready to deal a final blow.

Hiroshi: [weakly] Akuma..! No matter what happens today..! I will defeat you... It's for sure..!

Akuma: [Overconfident] A flame that flickers is no match for me! You flickering flames will slowly die out.

Hiroshi: [weakly] A flame on its last flicker... can deal the same burn as a flame that is sturdy... I will defeat you today..!

Hiroshi gathers all his strength and releases a powerful attack.

VOLCANIC... IMPACT..!

Hiroshi bangs his daggers on ground. A series of Volcanic craters erupt and head towards Akuma.

The final crater erupts right beneath his left leg.

The eruption causes Akuma to disbalance and fall.

Akuma's claws hit the pillar with the last Crystal. He tried to stop, but the sharpness of his claws caused them to slide down further and slice through the crystal.

Akuma: [In Pain and Fear] NOOOO!!!

Akuma Screams in unimaginable pain as His body turns into a mere statue of solid, hard ice.

The pedestal containing the yellow ember arises from inside the ground.

Hiroshi walks up to it and claims the Lightning Speed Ember.

The Entire Arena Shakes

Hiroshi: [Weakly] FLAME... COMET..!

He releases the Comet of flames and the Arena shatters like ice.

Akuma and Hiroshi, both fall together with the broken remains of the Arena. Hiroshi faints mid-air.

[At the Ice Castle]

The pile of snow above Shinzo turns to powdered snow and spreads around.

Shinzo digs his way out.

Shinzo: [gasping for air] What!? What just happened?! How did it turn to powdered snow?! Is Akuma dead!?

Suddenly, the roof of the castle breaks as Hiroshi and Akuma fall in.

Hiroshi falls right in the powdered snow, safely, But Akuma's Ice Statue body falls on the ground and shatters to tiny ice particles.

Shinzo: [shocked] what!? Who was that ice guy who shattered!? Akuma!?!?

Shinzo rushes to check Hiroshi

Shinzo: Oh no... Even though Akuma is now dead his ice powers persist in Hiroshi's veins. [Checks His pulse rate, panicked] His pulses are dropping fast! I need to rush him to a doctor!

He takes Hiroshi's arm on his shoulder and carries him outside to the Ring.

Turns out, all the people had already turned to Powdered snow and melted.

Shinzo: oh no.. I forgot that the people of this Ring were created by Akuma's magic... If Akuma dies, they all die too... [With a feeling of Despair] How do I save Hiroshi...

Suddenly, A portal opens beneath their legs.

Hiroshi and Shinzo, both fall inside of it.

They both fall in a big, dark room.

Shinzo: [confused] what..? What the heck was that!? Where are we!?

The torches in that room lighten up one by one. Bookshelves are Revealed due to the light.

Majuro comes out from behind a shelf.

Shinzo: [shocked] Majuro!?

Majuro: Welcome! To the Torojima Family's Ancient Library of Magical Books!

Shinzo: [confused] huh?
