Chapter 1:

The Battle of Tokatsu

Jigoku no Kijo


(In the depths of Jigoku, the Hell of Japan. A war had been going on for 3,000 years already and soon the latest battle would take place in Tokatsu, one of Jigoku's 8 Great Hells. A alliance was formed between allied Hanyo and Oni samurai clans in a attempt to rescue Lord Enma, the former ruler of Jigoku from the clutches of the dreaded Toyoshima Clan. One such clan who were leading the alliance were, the powerful and almighty Umezaki Clan for they have faced the Toyoshima Clan a long time ago. Lord Koichiro Umezaki was the current daimyo of the Umezaki Clan, he has endured many battles before in his prime, but now there some Hanyo and Oni discussing if he could even still go at his elderly age. Yet everyone were mostly depending towards his son, Kyohei Umezaki to save the day, Kyohei was a notable Hanyo samurai himself yet between him and his father Koichiro, they were noticeably stark opposites apart from each other. Kyohei was back in Umemoto Castle, the stronghold of the Umezaki Clan as his servants attend to putting Kyohei's O-Yoroi armor on him. Kyohei had stern and serious look on his face as he knew, how much pressure his people were placing on his shoulders.) 

"Kyohei: How much longer is this going to take?" 
"Servant #1: Just a couple of knots left. My lord."
"Kyohei: Then hurry already. My father and his men await me on the battlefield." 
"Servant #2: We are trying our best, Lord Kyohei."
"Kyohei (sighing): Fine...just hurry it up." 
(Kyohei kept waiting for his servants to finish up tying the knots that connected the samurai armor all together. Suddenly his beloved wife, Sayaka had entered inside the room as she looked towards Kyohei with a look of concern and worry.)
"Sayaka: Kyohei-san... Please be careful out there." 
"Kyohei: Saya-chan... Don't say such things to me. You already know it is my duty to protect the people."
"Sayaka: I know but still... I already have a awful feeling about this..."
"Kyohei: Saya-chan, you worry too much. I'll be fine, you need to focus on protecting our two children."
"Sayaka: Yusei and Azumi are both already asleep. Kyohei just promise me you won't be so reckless on the battlefield... Our children can't live without their father by their side..."
"Kyohei: Saya-chan, I don't need you lecturing me on this as well. I need your support...and you keep doubting me. I'm sorry Sayaka, but I can't promised that I won't be reckless... But I will promise you this...I'll come home shortly after the battle." 
"Sayaka: Kyohei..."
"Kyohei: I promise you Sayaka-chan. I won't make my own children live fatherless.
(And with that, Kyohei placed his helmet on top of his head as he sets off leaving the castle. Kyohei is already prepared for battle as he slowly makes his way in climbing on top of his horse, Shinji. Kyohei rides Shinji across the Hanyo and Oni villages of Tokatsu with the red ambient sky of Jigoku in the background as he rode through the fields and the tall trees.) 

(Meanwhile in the outskirts of the Umezaki Clan stronghold camp in Tokatsu. Lord Koichiro Umezaki spoke with one of his most loyal and trusted retainers of the clan, General Norishige Yoshimura. General Yoshimura reported to Koichiro about how the Hatsune, the Iwatani, the Yamatsuka, the Tokushige, the Ichijo, the Hayashi, and the Satake were all here now to join the Umezaki Clan against the massive Toyoshima Army.)
"Yoshimura: My Lord, everything seems to be in place now, the rest of the clans have already arrived."
"Koichiro: I can see that, General. But there's still no sign of my son anywhere. What is taking Kyohei so long to arrive?"
"Yoshimura: I'm sure there is a explanation as to why Master Kyohei is late, my Lord."
"Koichiro: It's not like him to be this late to arrive before the battle even begins."
"Yoshimura: I believe he's mostly worried about his two children. After all, they're the future of the Umezaki bloodline."
"Koichiro: Indeed but you can't forget about Kiyomi's children either. They're the future as well. The Umezaki bloodline will continue as normal.
"Yoshimura: What about...the curse...?"
"Koichiro: Don't bring that up...Yoshimura-san. Thank goodness there hasn't been a incident involving that dreaded curse that plague us for so many years."
"Yoshimura: Forgive me my lord for bringing it up."
"Koichiro: You're excused General. Anyway...Yoshimura-san. Somehow I see something like a spark of determination in my granddaughter's eyes."
"Yoshimura: Do you mean little Azumi?"
"Koichiro: Of course General. Something about those beautiful hazel eyes of her's, tells me that she could be destined for something more."
"Yoshimura: I have no doubt at all, my Lord. The little one has something that Yusei doesn't seem to have obtain."
"Koichiro: We can't doubt Yusei's eagerness in willing to become a warrior himself, Yoshimura-san. He's much like your son, Nagahide." 
"Yoshimura: I rather not speak much about Nagahide at all, my Lord. I've been too hard on that boy for too long, he doesn't even know about his mother at all."
"Koichiro: After this battle is over, I hope you will be able to reconcile with your son, General."
"Yoshimura: Thank you my Lord." 
(After minutes of Lord Koichiro and General Yoshimura speaking each other, Koichiro's son Kyohei was about to arrive at last while riding on horseback. Kyohei walked among the rest of the Umezaki Hanyo samurai, as they all bowed to him out of respect.)

"Koichiro: Kyohei! You finally arrived at last. I was starting to worry, that you wouldn't come my son."
"Kyohei: Sorry to keep you waiting father. The servants could've worked faster in helping me put on my armor. But I'm here now."
"Koichiro: Well I know there's no time to waste any longer but. By the way, how is Sayaka dealing with all of this?"
"Kyohei: She's too worried about me, father. I told her not to but her worrying keeps reminding me of mother."
"Koichiro: That's just how things are supposed to be, son. Sayaka is a strong woman, she loves you too much, son. Don't forget that." 
"Kyohei: I won't father." 
(Soon enough, the signal for the start of the battle had been signaled, as Lord Koichiro ordered his men to gather their weapons. As the battle against the Toyoshima Clan was about go underway now.)
"Koichiro: Yoshimura! Kyohei! Ride with me. It's finally time to restore Jigoku back to normal."
"Yoshimura: Indeed my Lord. We shall spare no mercy to those Toyoshima dogs."
"Kyohei: Our ancestors have already conquered them a long time ago. I hope they guide us once more in our victory over the Toyoshima once more."
"Koichiro: Indeed my son. But it seems their lord Shigehiro Toyoshima is plotting something dangerous. Even after holding Lord Enma hostage."
"Kyohei: I'm not sure but it feels like it could be a setup..."
"Koichiro: Son there's nothing to worry about. After we win this battle, we'll be able to finally settle down for once."
"Kyohei: Alright Father, let's finish this once and for all...!"
"Koichiro: MEN...!!! LET'S MOVE OUT...!!!"
(The Umezaki Clan followed Lord Koichiro, as they stood in position on a mountain cliff. Soon the rest of the other Hanyo and Oni samurai clans join alongside them, the Hatsune, the Iwatani, the Yamatsuka, the Tokushige, the Ichijo, the Hayashi, and the Satake all stood by the Umezaki Clan's samurai.) 

(The alliance of all these clans stood united against a common enemy, the Toyoshima Clan. They knew they must rescue Lord Enma from their clutches or else, Jigoku would led to a chaotic realm. Lord Koichiro began delivering a final inspiring speech to all of the clans.)
"Koichiro: My fellow Hanyo and Oni samurai, today we stand united in the face of the greatest threat our lands have ever known. The Toyoshima clan seeks to bring darkness and destruction upon our homes, but we will not cower in fear. We will rise together, shoulder to shoulder, as one indomitable force."
"For many long years, our people have been marginalized, looked down upon because of our heritage. We have been cast aside, treated as inferior a long time ego. But today, we defy those who would underestimate us. Today, we show our enemies the true strength and honor of all the Hanyo and Oni samurai clans."
"We are the descendants of both human and yokai, and we carry within us the strength of both worlds. Our diversity is our greatest asset, and it is what will make us strong enough to face this formidable foe."
"The Toyoshima clan may be powerful and large, but they are not unbeatable. They rely on fear and intimidation to maintain their grip on the land. But we will shatter their illusions and stand firm in the face of their tyranny." 
"Together, we have forge an alliance that will shake the very foundations of their empire. We will fight with every fiber of our being, with every drop of blood in our veins, to defend our homes, our families, and our way of life."
"Each of us carries a legacy of strength and resilience, passed down from our ancestors. Today, we honor their spirits by standing as one, and by refusing to bow before the forces of oppression."
"So let us raise our banners high, and let our battle cries echo across the land. For today, we stand not as separate clans, but as a united force that cannot be broken. Today, we march to victory, and we will show the world the unyielding power of all the clans together!"
"ONWARD!!!...TO GLORY AND VICTORY...!!!"
(And so, the all the clans rode side by side, charging at the incoming Toyoshima Clan. Spears, arrows, blades, cannons, firearms, and blood were shot, fired, and spread across the massive battlefield. But there was so many Toyoshima Clan samurai charging at all of the samurai clans at once.) 

"Koichiro: Keep pushing further men...!!!"
"Yoshimura: There's too many of them...my Lord..!!! Are you sure they weren't waiting for us....?!?!"
"Kyohei: This is madness...!!! How did they garnered so many men like this...?!?!"
"Koichiro: We can't stop and think about that right now!!! The fate of Jigoku lies in our hands...!!! We can not allow the Toyoshima to gain the victory...!"
"Kyohei: Then we keep going then...!!! Eliminate of these Toyoshima dogs...!!! Show them no mercy...!!!"
"Koichiro: Kyohei! what are you doing?!?!"
(Kyohei alongside with the other Umezaki samurai began slaughtering dozens of Toyoshima Ashigaru and Samurai, which did not sit well Koichiro's views at all. Koichiro ordered Kyohei to stop but Kyohei denied his orders as he and his men kept pushing against the Toyoshima.) 
"Kyohei: ONWARD MENNN...!!!"
"Koichiro: KYOHEI...!!! You are not finishing them off with honor, my son...!!! This is not how we do things...!"
"Kyohei: Are you mad father...?!?! These dogs have slaughtered our people like nothing...!!! They don't deserve honor..!!! I can't stand these bastards trying to massacre more of our people...!!!"
"Koichiro: I understand but this is not how we do things here...!!!"
"Kyohei: To hell with the code father...!!! If you don't change...we will never be able to defeat the Toyoshima-..." 
(Then suddenly a loud explosion blast sends both Koichiro and Kyohei flying apart from each other, as the war general of the Toyoshima Clan had appeared in the center of the battlefield, General Takeichi Kajioka himself. Lord Koichiro slowly gets up from the ground.)
"Kajioka: Hmph... At last I've finally have a chance to face you all alone now."
"Koichiro (Shaken from the blast): Grrgh...T-Tch... You must be General Kajioka. I never thought you would be deluded in challenging me all by yourself.
"Kajioka: Lord Toyoshima sends his regards. Once I eliminate you from existence."
"Koichiro: Do yourself a favor and retreat back where you belong."
"Kajioka: I believe that won't be happening."
"Koichiro (Unsheathing his katana): Then prepare yourself fiend...!"
"Kajioka: You will lay defeated underneath my feet, Koichiro-sama. You and the Umezaki Clan shall perish here."
(Soon Koichiro and Kajioka began fighting with their blades at hand, usually the katana was said to be a last resort for the samurai but in some cases like these. Nothing else mattered as Koichiro was normally composed but now there is a serious threat in him.)
"Koichiro (Breathing heavily): You won't strike me down so easily...!"
"Kajioka: I doubt you can last that long old man...!"
"Koichiro: I'm only just getting started!"
"Kajioka: Your reputation proceeds you, old geezer. I doubt the curse will even save you from your impending doom."
"Koichiro: I don't need the curse to help me in defeating you!'
"Kajioka: Then that will be the biggest regret of your life."
"Koichiro: It is you who will regret ever fighting against me without your men!!!"
"Kajioka: I don't need any help in murdering you... You Umezaki hermit...!!!"

(The Battle of Tokatsu was becoming more grueling and brutal as more bloodshed was spread across the battlefield, Lord Koichiro and General Kajioka were busy struggling against each other in their duel. It wasn't long before they both started using fire elemental abilities against each other, Koichiro's fire burned brightly while Kajioka's fire was dark and sinister much like his appearance. Meanwhile Kyohei had risen up from the ground as he was separated from his father after being bombarded from a fiery blast. Kyohei found himself rejoining his fellow men Ieshige Takigawa and Tsuneyasu Iwaki, two of the Umezaki Clan's noble retainers.)
"Ieshige: Master Kyohei...! Are you alright?!"
"Kyohei: I'm f-fine...! Where's my father...?"
"Tsuneyasu: We have no clue... It's hard to tell with these many Toyoshima scum blocking our path!!"
"Kyohei: Then we make a opening!!! Let's show them the wrath of the Umezaki Clan...!!!"
"Ieshige: We are right behind you, young master!"
"Kyohei: Forward to victory men!!!"
(The trio of Kyohei, Ieshige, and Tsuneyasu followed by a squadron of Umezaki Samurai bulldozed through the large battalion of Toyoshima samurai blocking their pathway. They fought viciously as they massacred dozens of Toyoshima warriors in their way, they showed no mercy towards as ordered by Kyohei. The Hanyo were a hybrid between human and yokai of course, but they are known for their vicious demonic instincts despite some of them are currently samurai. Demons don't hold much honor towards their enemies that much, the only thing that mattered on the battlefield was survival and victory.)
"Tsuneyasu: Despite our large numbers... They just keep spawning left and right...!!!"
"Ieshige: That bastard Lord Toyoshima must've done something to gain such dozens of men to serve under him....!!!"
"Kyohei: I know but can't we faltered! If we don't stop the Toyoshima, our home as we know it will cease to exist...!"  
"Tsuneyasu: Then we must push more harder then before...!!!"
"Kyohei: Don't hold anything back against these Toyoshima dogs...!!!" 
"Ieshige: I think I see General Yoshimura...!!!"
"Kyohei: We must aid Norishige before the Toyoshima get to him...!"
(The trio soon backed up General Yoshimura, rescuing from near death from the Toyoshima Ashigaru who seek to kill him for fame. Kyohei valiantly defended Yoshimura from charging enemies from every side.) 
"Yoshimura: Took you all long enough...! I was starting to worry you've all left me behind."
"Kyohei: There's no chance we ever let those dogs take our best warrior at all." 
"Yoshimura: Then let's sent all of them to the deepest depths of Jigoku!"  

(The group of Kyohei, Yoshimura, Tsuneyasu, and Ieshige alongside with many other Umezaki Ashigaru following behind them in overtaking the charging Toyoshima Army. Meanwhile Lord Koichiro and General Kajioka have been fighting for several hours, even despite the aging Koichiro was slowing down. Koichiro still managed to keep up against the evil general of the Toyoshima.)
"Kajioka: I applaud you for being able to keep up against me old man!"
"Koichiro: Do not mistake my age for weakness!!!"
"Kajioka: That is what you think, old hermit!"
"Koichiro: This realm does not belong to you or Toyoshima...!!! You will never take over Jigoku...!!!" 
"Kajioka: You are out of your mind, you senile old bastard!"
"Koichiro: I will not allow you to bring Jigoku to it's ruins...!"
"Kajioka: That's what you believe in, you deluded fool! We never plotted to take over Jigoku for ourselves..."
"Koichiro: What do you mean...?!?!"
"Kajioka: As far as I'm concerned, Great King Enma is no more. We've made a deal with someone far more powerful than you can possibly imagined."
"Koichiro: W-What...?!?! Who!?!?!"
"Kajioka: I've presumed he will arrive just about now...!"
(Suddenly, the ground started to shake which halted all of the fighting. Every Hanyo and Oni samurai looked greatly confused and perplexed except all of the Toyoshima. A large mist of darkness appeared as the ground opened from below, and soon a large towering figure stood among the Toyoshima Clan with vast army of demonic minions. Hades, the God of the Underworld and ruler of Tartarus had appeared in Jigoku, Lord Toyoshima had made a deal with the malevolent Greek god. He offered Hades the entire rulership of Jigoku if he helped the Toyoshima Clan defeat all of their enemies and dethrone Enma from his position. To which is the reason as to why Hades had arrived in Jigoku, as the deal was set and everyone from the opposite side, stood in shock and disbelief.)
"Hades: Foolish demons... I suggest that every single one of you to surrender immediately. And perhaps I shall spare your lives."
"Yoshimura: What the hell is he doing here...?!?!"
"Tsuneyasu: This was a trap all along...! Those bastards had made a deal with that Greek god...!"
"Kyohei: He's not just any Greek god.... That's Hades...! The God of the Underworld...!!! Why exactly does he want with Jigoku...?!?!"
"Hades: It seems you've all haven't dropped your weapons. Such pity insolence.... Cerberus! And all of my loyal minions...! Destroy all of those disgraceful excuses for demons!!!"  
(Soon the Toyoshima Clan alongside with the Army of Hades worked together overpowering the Umezaki Clan and their allies. Their combined large numbers outnumbered the rest of the united clans, and meanwhile Lord Koichiro had been so distracted by all the recent events that had transpired. He was in complete disbelief of how everything was beginning to fall apart but he could not fail in defeating the Toyoshima and now Hades' army but himself being distracted would be his own undoing.)
"Koichiro: D-Damn it...!!! This was all just a setup to appear we were overcoming the Toyoshima...!!"
"Kajioka: You shouldn't leave your eyes off from your opponent old hermit!!!"
"Koichiro: W-What...- GYAAAAAAAAAKKKK....!!!!" 
"Kajioka: DIE YOU LOATHSOME FOOL!!! HAHAHA..!!! 
"Koichiro: AAAAAARRGHHH...!!!"
"Kajioka: KOBO-SENNN...!!! NINJOOO...!!!
(General Kajioka has stabbed Lord Koichiro through his heart with a deadly sword technique infused with his dark elemental fire. Then suddenly Kyohei saw the disturbing scene from a short distance with eyes widened in shock, as he quickly ran towards them after realizing what had happened.)
"Kyohei: F-FAAATTTHHHEEERRRRRR...!!!!!!!!"
"Koichiro: K-Kyohei...s-san..."
"Kyohei: F-FATHER...!?!?! D-DAMN YOU!!! YOU TOYOSHIMA BASTARD...!!! YOU WILL PAY WITH YOUR LIFEEE...!!!!"
"Kajioka: Seems that I have to kill every single one of you Umezaki scum to end the entire bloodline..."
(Kyohei was enraged, angered, furious, emotional, and heavily infuriated as he could not grieve for his fallen father, Koichiro. He had no time to do so, as his eyes cast a red burning color filled with such rage as he charged against General Kajioka, to avenge his father's death.)

"Kyohei: I WILL SCATTER YOUR BODY ACROSS JIGOKU FOR WHAT YOU'VE DONE!!!"
"Kajioka: Your father was too weak and distracted, boy. You will soon join him in Yomi...!!!"
"Kyohei: IT SHALL BE YOU WHO WILL BE IN YOMI SOON!!!"
"Kajioka: Then this shall be very entertaining indeed."
(Kyohei couldn't maintain his anger as he aimed directly towards General Kajioka with his katana. However Kajioka used Kyohei's anger against him to his own advantage over Kyohei's fierce attacks. Kajioka kept parrying all of Kyohei's attacks as he toyed with the enraged hanyo samurai.)
"Kajioka: Your own anger shall be your downfall boy."
"Kyohei: URUSAI...!!! DON'T TALK LIKE YOU KNOW EVERYTHING ABOUT ME...!!!"
"Kajioka: Then allow me to show you a small fracture of the consequences of your own blinded anger!"
"Kyohei: DAMN YOU-... GYAAAAAAGHHHHH...!!!!"
"Kajioka: Not so tough aren't you? With only eye heh." 
(Kajioka had just painfully struck Kyohei's left eye, as blood floated down from the socket as Kyohei winced in pain. Yet gradually, Kyohei managed to finally maintain himself even despite losing sight of his eye.)
"Kyohei: You will regret that..."
"Kajioka: Hah! Yet somehow, that has managed to finally calm you down surprisingly." 
"Kyohei: Guide me... Mitsukudo...!!!"
"Kajioka: Wait what...?!"
(Kyohei ignited the legendary katana known as Mitsukudo on fire, the Mitsukudo was been passed down from generations of Umezaki, starting from the ancient Umemoto Clan. And then Kyohei quickly sliced Kajioka's entire arm off with a single clean cut, using a forbidden yet deadly technique known as Ryuketsu Hikisage.)
"Kyohei: RYUKETSU HIKISAGEEE...!!!"
"Kajioka: G-GAAAAAHHHH...!!! YOU SON OF...!!!"
"Kyohei: Don't ever underestimate a Umezaki ever again...!!!"
"Kajioka: D-Damn you...!!!"
"Kyohei: This is for my father, you scumbag. Prepare to die!"
"Kajioka: Curse you Kyohei Umezaki...!!!"
(But before Kyohei could even deliver the final blow to Kajioka, General Yoshimura stopped him before he could finished off Kajioka. Yoshimura urged Kyohei they must retreat as the alliance of the Toyoshima Clan and the Army of Hades were too much to handle. The battle was lost but Kyohei refused to retreat.)
"Kyohei: LET GO OF ME YOSHIMURA!!! WE CAN'T RETREAT...!!! NOT LIKE THIS!!!"  
"Yoshimura: I'm sorry Kyohei but we can't hold them any longer!!! They're too many of them...!!! Forgive me Kyohei...but we have to go now!!!"
"Kyohei: NOT UNTIL I KILL THIS BASTARD FOR KILLING MY FATHER...!!!"
"Yoshimura: KYOHEI WE HAVE TO GO NOW...!!!"
"Kajioka: H-Heh... You should listen to your general, boy. Jigoku is officially ours for the taking."
"Kyohei: CURSE YOUUU...!!!" 
(And with that, Kyohei swung his blade and sliced General Kajioka's throat as blood was gushing from his wound. Ultimately, Kyohei and General Yoshimura left him to die there and soon, all of the remaining Umezaki samurai along with their other allied samurai began to retreat. The Umezaki Clan and their allies had lost the battle to the united alliance of the Toyoshima Clan and the Army of Hades. Soon, Jigoku began to fall apart as the Hanyo and some of the Oni began to realize that Jigoku would no longer be a safe place to stay in anymore. Kyohei, Yoshimura, and the rest of the Umezaki retainers and samurai began to retreat back to Umemoto Castle in a effort to escape the now approaching danger.) 

"Yoshimura: We have to get out of here now, Master Kyohei!"
"Kyohei: I can't believe this all happened...we've lost the battle... And now Jigoku has fallen to chaotic evil... I don't where will we even go from here now..."
"Tsuneyasu: I know a place that could transport all of us to a different realm...!"
"Yoshimura: Which realm, Tsuneyasu!?!"
"Tsuneyasu: The human realm...unfortunately."
"Yoshimura: W-What...?!?!"
"Kyohei (still angered): Then we head to the human realm...!!! We don't have much time!!! Gather everyone including all of the remaining clans as well! Yoshimura, we must reach the castle quickly and gather Sayaka and the children!!!"
"Tsuneyasu & Yoshimura: Understood my lord!"
(Kyohei and Yoshimura rode their horses and quickly raced towards Umemoto Castle before any of the Toyoshima or Hades' minions reach them. After racing against time, they've successfully and finally arrived in Umemoto Castle, as Kyohei quickly got off from his horse as he ran and tried finding his wife Sayaka.)
"Kyohei: SAYAKA...!!!!! Sayaka!!!!"
"Sayaka: K-Kyohei...!?!?!"
"Kyohei: Sayaka we have to go now...!!!"
"Sayaka: What is going on...?!?! What happened to your eye, Kyohei...!?!"
"Kyohei: There's no time to explain...!!! Grab Yusei and Azumi! We have to get out of here...!!!"
"Sayaka: Where are we heading to...!?!"
"Kyohei: The Human Realm...!"
"Sayaka: The H-Human R-Realm...?! B-But Kyohei...that's...!"
"Kyohei: Just please do as I say...!!! We must go..!!!"
"Sayaka: H-Hai...!!!" 
(Sayaka quickly grabbed her two children, Yusei and Azumi who were very much still sleeping and they had no idea what was happening. Sayaka carried them to the horses as Sayaka carried Azumi on her horse while Kyohei carried Yusei on his horse, Shinji. Every Umezaki servant, samurai, ashigaru, guard, and even villagers as well, all followed the Umezaki Clan behind. Only 4 other samurai clans who were allied with the Umezaki Clan survived the battle somehow, the Tokushige, the Hatsune, the Yamatsuka, and the Iwatani all survived with the exception of the others. As many of them had fallen against Hades' army, now all of 4 remaining clans followed the Umezaki Clan towards the Human Realm as well. Kyohei knew he was now the new head of the Umezaki Clan and yet he was not too grateful at all being the new Daimyo under unforeseen circumstances. His father was tragically murdered before he even had the chance to reconcile their strained relationship, the Toyoshima Clan had plotted this entire ordeal since the start with their unholy alliance with Hades, and now Kyohei must lead his men to the Human Realm to start a new beginning as Jigoku was no longer safe.)

-Several hours later, somewhere located in the mountainous outskirts of Tokatsu-  

"Kyohei: How much further is this portal located...Tsuneyasu?"
"Tsuneyasu: We're almost there my lord. I can already see it from a distance."
"Kyohei: How were you able to discover such a place like this?"
"Tsuneyasu: I didn't, Kazuuji stumbled across it once during a recon mission. And then one thing led a another and well... I witnessed it with my eyes, this portal will lead us to Japan."
"Yoshimura: Wait... We are heading to Japan...?!"
"Kyohei: I've heard stories of Japan before... Granted, it seems to be the best suitable place for us to settle in for now."
"Tsuneyasu: I regret to inform you my lord. Japan no longer has any samurai around anymore. All of the clans have either been eliminated or lost power since then."
"Kyohei: The humans will no doubt be frightened of our appearances. Henceforth we must keep a low profile until something happens."
"Yoshimura & Tsuneyasu: Understood my lord!"
"Kyohei (Looking at both Azumi and Yusei): After all... We have to secure the future of our clan, no doubt. I just hope that one day...we will return here more stronger then ever before. We may have lost the battle, but all hope isn't lost as many of you believe in. We've already planted the seeds for a brighter future then our enemies would least anticipate...and once those seeds began to grow and transform into a tree. Then we'll know, that is our beacon of hope."
"And men, as you see... The seeds are now just growing. As you look at the future in our children."
"Yoshimura: Lord Kyohei..."
"Kyohei: Now then... Onward! To a brighter future in the Human Realm!"
"All of the Umezaki Clan: HAIIIII...!!!!"  
(And so Kyohei leads the entire Umezaki Clan to the Human Realm, Lady Sayaka still held a sleeping Azumi close to her, and Kyohei still had Yusei in front of him as the two siblings haven't stir from their slumber. Soon enough, all of the Umezaki, Tokushige, Yamatsuka, Iwatani, and Hatsune clans were transported to the human realm, even though they all knew they were going to spawn in Japan, however they didn't know which part of Japan will they be spawning in. And unexpectedly, they all teleported in the middle of Shibuya City of Tokyo, Japan as they all opened their eyes slightly after being blinded by the bright light. All of the civilians soon stop what they were all doing as they stared at the massive army of the Hanyo and Oni samurai clans, Kyohei began to witness everything in front of him as Sayaka was puzzled by everything that was around them.)
"Sayaka: W-Where exactly did we teleported to..."
"Kyohei: I don't know Sayaka-chan... But I believe that this indeed Japan... We are in Tokyo, it seems for now..."
