Chapter 6:

THE SHIMARU SECTOR

HIKARU TO ONNA




In another scene, we catch a brief glimpse of Onna holding two babies in her arms. Kuroba breaks the silence, telling her it's time to break the seals. Onna blinks, her long eyelashes fluttering as she softly replies, "Of course."
But the real trouble starts the moment they actually try to undo them.
Suddenly, a strange blue light erupts from the seals. It flares up with such intense power that it pushes them completely back, making it impossible to get any closer. Onna grows visibly frustrated. This roadblock is entirely Kenshi's doing; back when he was alive, he had healed and reinforced these seals so thoroughly that they were never meant to be opened easily. The only ones he couldn't completely fix were the ones belonging to the elders—those took an immense amount of effort from Katsuro to restore after Kenshi passed away.
Fast forward to the present, and Onna, Kuroba, and Yurie are pooling their strength to force the seals open. Onna taps into her Inoro power, managing to crack open the outer layer. But the inner seal refuses to budge. Instead, it violently pushes back, unleashing a blinding blue glare that burns their eyes. Kuroba and Yurie quickly jump in, unleashing their own powers to help, but nothing even makes a dent.
Realizing they are fighting a losing battle and sensing danger, Onna calls it off. "No, this isn't working," she says, wiping her eyes. "We need to take this up with Akuma." Kuroba and Yurie nod in agreement, knowing she's right. Realizing they're out of options for now, the three of them turn around and leave.
The next afternoon turned out to be beautiful. A cool, crisp breeze was blowing, and Yukito was wearing the muffler Yuki had won for him at the festival's fish-catching game the day before.Adjusting the fabric around his neck, Yukito smiled. "Thanks, Yuki."Yuki blushed a little, waving his  hand dismissively. "Oh, come on! You don't need to thank me for that.""Come with me," Yukito said, his smile widening. "I’m going to teach you something today."Yuki’s eyes lit up with surprise. "Wait, really?!"They walked out to a quiet, open field. Yukito wanted to show his  how to handle her abilities."You need to focus your energy," Yukito explained, turning to face his  Feel the internal power inside you first. Then, use it in a way where you are always in control of its limits. Never unleash everything all at once. Build up the speed gradually. Watch this—I’m going to punch the ground. There won't be a crater, but you’ll be able to feel the sheer force of the impact right from where you're standing."Yuki watched, buzzing with excitement.Yukito took a breath and slammed his fist into the dirt. A powerful shockwave rippled through the air. The raw pressure made Yuki’s hair stand on end, and his  knees actually wobbled from the vibration."Oh my god, I'm dead...!" Yuki gasped, shutting his eyes tight.But when he opened them and looked down, the ground was completely untouched. Not a single scratch. She stared at it, her jaw dropping."You hit the ground that hard and nothing even happened?!" he stuttered.Yukito stood up and brushed the dust off his clothes. "Exactly. That's what I meant by control."Yuki let out a long breath she didn't realize he was holding. "Man, my heart literally stopped. I swear I thought the ground was going to swallow me whole! That was insane." She wiped her forehead, completely out of breath just from watching."Your turn," Yukito said simply.Yuki pointed a finger at himself, her eyes wide. "Wait... me?!""Yep."Yuki took his stance. She tried to copy exactly what Yukito did and threw a punch. But the moment his  fist made contact, things went horribly wrong.With a deafening crash, the ground shattered, fracturing into a massive, jagged crater.Yukito’s heart dropped. His eyes widened in absolute shock as he stared at the destruction. So... he thought, his mind racing, those stories weren't a lie? It was all true?A sudden flashback hit him. He remembered the afternoon Akari was talking to Yuki’s subconscious, revealing everything about Katsuro. Yukito had been standing just outside the door, catching every single word.Back in the present, Yukito swallowed hard, his voice trembling. "Yuki... what did you just do?"Yuki looked down at his  own hands, completely panicked. "I... I don't know! I swear I threw it softly, but it just went crazy!"The overwhelming shock of seeing his true power, combined with the heavy secrets from the flashback, was too much for Yukito to handle. His head spun, his vision blurred, and he collapsed onto the grass, completely unconscious.Yuki somehow managed to carry Yukito all the way back home. The moment he walked through the door, the entire house threw into a panic. They quickly laid him down on the couch, and Keito rushed over, splashing cold water onto his face."Yukito! Come on, wake up! Yukito!" Keito pleaded.Haru turned to Yuki, eyes narrowed with suspicion. "Yuki, did you hit him or something?"Yuki vigorously shook his head, terrified. "No! I just punched the ground!"Keito kept calling his name, gently patting his face with water. After a tense few moments, Yukito finally groaned and opened his eyes. He sat up slowly, looking completely dazed and traumatized.Mika frowned, looking between them. "Yukito, why did you suddenly pass out? Did Yuki do something to you?"Akari stepped forward, her face serious. "What happened out there?"Yukito didn't want to hide it anymore. He explained exactly what had happened in the field. Hearing about Yuki’s supposedly "world-ending" punch, the others just laughed it off, thinking Yukito was exaggerating or seeing things. But Akari didn't laugh. Her face went pale. Sensing that things were spinning out of control, she quietly slipped away and walked back to her room.Seeing her sudden exit, Yukito got up and followed her. He walked straight into her room and cut right to the chase, leaving no room for small talk."Mom, why is Yuki’s power like that?"Akari froze, caught off guard. She didn't have a single excuse or explanation ready. She bit her lip and looked away, staying silent."I asked you a question!" Yukito demanded, his voice rising with frustration. "Why is his  power like that?!"Akari closed her eyes. She realized right then that Yukito must have overheard the conversation she had with Yuki's subconscious about Katsuro."You heard everything that day... didn't you?" Akari asked softly, her voice heavy with guilt."Yes," Yukito replied. His voice was terrifyingly calm.But the calm didn't last. Within seconds, the anger boiled over, and he snapped. "Why did you do it?! Why would you create a conflict like this between us?!""It was a misunderstanding," Akari whispered, tears welling up in her eyes. "Everything went wrong because of a mistake. I am so sorry..."Yukito let out a bitter, hollow laugh. "No, Mom. The mistake isn't yours, and it isn't the situation. The only mistake here is that we were born on the exact same day."The room fell into a suffocating, dead silence. Akari stood there, completely shattered, as Yukito’s words echoed in the space between them.Akari was suddenly taken back to the day Yukito’s father, Makato, had arrived at the Place of Seal Ground. The memory weighed heavily on her mind."If that's the case," Yukito said, his voice laced with confusion, "then why is the negative power inside Yuki so strong? She wasn't even supposed to possess any power to begin with."Akari’s face clouded with worry. "I honestly don't know," she admitted softly. "Katsuro and Hayato mentioned that having the exact same name might have triggered this surge of negativity. But to be honest, I'm still completely in the dark about it."Disheartened by her answer, Yukito quietly walked out of the room. A bitter truth weighed on his chest—he knew that Yuki would only be able to properly wield her true power if he were to die. But deep down, a troubling realization hit him: the dark, negative energy brewing inside Yuki was already terrifyingly strong.



The air inside Akuma's chamber was heavy, thick with the scent of old ash and unspoken threats. As Onna, Kuroba, and Yurie stepped through the threshold, the shadows along the walls seemed to stretch, reacting to their tense energy. Akuma sat in the dim light, his gaze sharp enough to cut through the gloom. He didn't say a word, but his eyes demanded an explanation for their sudden intrusion.
Onna took the lead, her posture straight despite the lingering exhaustion from the blue glare. "We tried to break the seals," she said, her voice steady but carrying a trace of her recent frustration. "Kenshi's work runs deeper than we anticipated. The moment we cracked the outer layer, a blue light pushed us back. It's too powerful. Even with our combined strength, we couldn't pierce the inner core."
Akuma's expression didn't soften; instead, a cold, knowing smirk played at the corner of his lips. He leaned forward, the sudden movement causing Kuroba and Yurie to subtly tense up.

"You thought Kenshi was careless?" Akuma's voice was a low rumble that echoed off the stone walls. "He knew exactly what you would try to do. That blue light isn't just a barrier—it's a dynamic defense. The harder you push against it, the more violently it strikes back. You're lucky you only walked away with stinging eyes."
Kuroba stepped up beside Onna, his brow furrowed. "We didn't come here for a lecture on Kenshi's genius, Akuma. We came because we need a way through. Katsuro put  into securing the elders' seals for us to fail now. There has to be a blind spot."
Akuma stood up, walking slowly around the trio like a predator assessing its pack. "There are no blind spots in a seal fueled by pure will," he murmured. "But every lock has a key. Kenshi's power was rooted in sacrifice. If you want to dissolve the inner seal without triggering the blue backlash, you can't force it open with aggressive magic. You have to trick  for  seal 

:The academy common room was stiflingly hot, and Tatsuya was entirely out of patience. Eyeing the room, he finally spotted a seat directly beneath the cooling vent and headed straight for it. But just as he went to sit down, a girl named Momoko Ayato cut him off, blocking the chair."Sorry, you can't sit here," Momoko said, her tone sharp and dismissive. "I'm saving this for a friend."Tatsuya frowned, irritation flashing across his face. "Look, I got here first. There's no one else here.""I don't care," Momoko shot back, crossing her arms defensively. "Go find another seat. This one is taken.""No, I'm sitting here," Tatsuya insisted. The heat was making his temper flare, and that specific spot was the only place where the cool air actually reached. He wasn't about to give it up over an unwritten rule.But Momoko refused to back down. She stood her ground, glaring right back at him. Within seconds, the argument escalated, their voices rising as they stood toe-to-toe. The tension in the air was so thick it felt like a physical fight was about to break out right then and there.Just as things reached a boiling point, Momoko’s friend finally walked into the room.Momoko immediately broke eye contact with Tatsuya, completely ignoring him as she turned to greet her friend with a bright smile. She acted as if the intense confrontation had never even happened, totally leaving Tatsuya hanging.Tatsuya stood there, his eyes burning with quiet fury as he glared at the back of Momoko's head. Realizing he wasn't going to get the seat without causing a massive scene, he let out a harsh breath, turned on his heel, and stormed off to find another seat across the room.

Momoko's friend leaned in and whispered, "What happened?" Momoko raised her voice on purpose, making sure Tatsuya caught every word. "Oh, forget it. Just some blind guy trying to take this seat without checking first." She chuckled, and her friend glanced back, bursting into giggles at the sight of Tatsuya's completely crushed expression.



Yuki saw Kazuya chatting with someone outside and said, "Kazuya, you missed the festival! You really should've come."
Kazuya just shrugged and replied, "Eh, the festival happens every year. But it's not every day you get to create a breakthrough chemical."
Curious, Yuki asked, "Wait, what kind of chemical? And what exactly are you doing with it?" Can you explained it?? Kazuyaa!!---
Kazuya say, no bro  it's  shimaru sector!
