Chapter 168:

Road Trip, again!

Project: INFERNO



(Back at Gaito's mansion and after sufficient time to train has passed, Shibuto, Hinami, Kazuya and Xinera was prepared for the upcoming P:I SAW tournament in Japan as all four has been marked as successful tournament candidates.)
"Kazuya: I GOT IN THE TOURNAMENT!"
"Hinami: Me too!"
"Xinera: The both of us got in too!"
"Shibuto: Alright guys, now that we're in the tournament, we can head down to the gaming convention and sign up!"
"Gaito: Did I hear gaming convention?"
(Gaito appears leaning on Shibuto's door as he goes to kiss Xinera.)
"What you three rascals up too?"
"Kazuya: We entered this gaming tournament and now we're deciding when's the best time to leave of course!"
"Gaito: Well, count me in! I don't mean to brag but uh... your own father's been a consecutive twenty time gaming tournament champion."
"Hinami: Is that so, Gaito? I've beaten Shibuto in less than thirty seconds. If you have the gall to back up your statement, challenge me!"
"Gaito: HA! HA! You're on, Hinami!"
(After five rounds goes by, Gaito wins with three to two rounds as he battled with Human variation Chimon verses Hinami playing as herself .)
"Hinami: Unbelievable...!"
"Gaito: If I held back anymore, I would've been in huge trouble."
"Kazuya: Alright Gaito, you're in. Hey wait! This could actually work in our favor..!"
"Gaito: What do you mean?"
"Kazuya: You did say you'd wanna take the family on a vacation right? This is your chance! Look at the nearby hotels, beaches, spas and everything!"
(As Gaito took a look at the brochure, he'd then focus his attention to an all-you-can-eat buffet of over one hundred different cuisines and over seven hundred different dishes.)

"Gaito: ...Alert the entire Magachi family along with the others, we leave in two hours."
(As the four was excited to leave, Shibuto and Xinera quickly rushed to begin packing as the entire family was then texted or telepathically sent a message about traveling to the resort. During the spreading of the invite, most of the family along with Lotus's family and the arriving close friends of Gaito arrived.)
"Onara: Well well Shibuto, seems like you're becoming more cuter every time I look at you."
"Shibuto: H-HHUHHH!??!?"
"Onara: Just teasing you!"
(Shibuto was suddenly embarrassed after Onara continuously teases Shibuto as the rest of the family and friends continued to chat amongst each other.)
"Isabel: Do you know how long its been since an all girls night out?!"
"Tayna (Goddess Of The Dead): I haven't had one in quite a while really!"
"Sybille: I do remember a tasty place during my last visit down there."
(As a portal opened, Sawano along with Azumi and her brother arrived along with Aimiya, Ankoku, Kenta and Fuchibuto.)
"Gaito: Well, THIS is truly a surprise!"
"Fuchibuto (Anti-God King): My dear brother, its been far too long."
"Gaito: Of course it has, Ankoku! Kenta my brother! Aimiya! And you must be the new Queen of Senvoinerth, are you not?"
"Azumi: O-Oh..! Yes, I am, Mr. Lord Magachi. I am Azumi Umezaki, its a pleasure to finally meet you at long last!"
"Gaito: I'm glad we finally were able to meet! Sawano, can we talk for a bit?"
"Sawano: Sure Gaito, what's up?"
(As Gaito and Sawano then goes outside the mansion, Gaito then smokes a cigar as Sawano lights a flame for the cigar.)

"Gaito: I don't know how you got so lucky, but Azumi got some good cake there."
"Sawano: That's my wife Gaito..."
"Gaito: I know! Just a compliment!"
"Sawano: So, what did you want to talk about?"
"Gaito: You're familiar with my grandfather, right?"
"Sawano: Ikehara? Isn't he dead?"
"Gaito: That's what the Dimensional Resets wanted you to think. In truth, he's alive."
"Sawano: H-How?!"
"Gaito: He escaped the timeline before the reset got to him. He's watching all of us and he's doing everything he can to protect us at the same time. Anyway, in five years, we're going to venture to the Titan Realm and help him fight the resurrecting titans."
"Sawano: Come to think of it, Hinami mentioned something about rumbling at the lower levels of Hell. And it couldn't have been infinite Hell."
"Gaito: Mhm. In five years, can you promise you'll land a punch on me that'll hurt?"
"Sawano: Give me three and I'll be able to land my new attack on you."
"Gaito: New attack?"
"Sawano: It's a secret, it's not finished yet but I'm guaranteed it'll hurt you."
"Gaito: We'll see... Also, I wasn't honest. Remember when I said I'd tell you everything about Xisorr and Tatsuhiro?"
"Sawano: Yeah...?"
"Gaito: Well. Those two versions of me did a lot of fucked up, disrespectful shit that I remember vividly. Every single, gruesome... bloody... catastrophic detail... And I like it!"
(Sawano was a little nervous but asked anyway.)

"Sawano: So what exactly did they do?"
"Gaito: That I'll tell you when we're settled at the resort. FAMILY! LET'S GO!"
(As Gaito yells, everyone including Sawano begins leaving the mansion as Gaito blinks once as two coach buses were in front of the party. As everyone boarded, the buses then drives themselves towards the gaming convention as the family begins to interact with each other.)
"Lotus: Kazuya, how is your training coming?"
"Kazuya: Pretty great if I say so myself"
"Lotus: I'm glad to hear you're keeping yourself in shape."
"Azumi: Sawano-Kunnn~!"
"Sawano: Yeah Azumi?"
"Azumi: I just love your name.."
(Sawano was a little embarrassed and says nothing as Gaito was dealing cards as he was playing Poker with Onara, Aimiya, Fuchibuto, Kirby, Hinami and Shibuto.)
"Gaito: Alright, rules as before... Anything higher than a three of a kind is a winner!"
"Onara: Sounds easy."
"Gaito: Oh is it now...?"
"Onara: I believe it is easy, pervert."
"Gaito: There is no acts of perversion going on right now."
"Onara: Says the one grabbing his wife's boob while dealing cards?"
(Gaito's left hand was then seen grabbing Athena's boob as she blushed without saying a word.)
"Gaito: She doesn't seem to be disgusted by it."
"Onara: Whatever... Pervert toad."
"Gaito: HEY! I'M NOTHING LIKE THAT DUSTY TOAD!"
(As Gaito and the others played the game a few rounds later, Fuchibuto then drops his cards and quits the first few seconds in the game.)

"Fuchibuto: I'm out."
"Hinami: Huh?!"
"Shibuto: Your cards can't be that bad so quick."
(Gaito then snickers quietly as he waits for anyone else to put their cards down. Kirby then confidently smirks as he forces his cards down.)
"Kirby: FLUSH! THAT'S RIGHT!"
"Onara: Full House. Read em' and weep, bitch!"
(The table oo's as Kirby was swearing at the fact he lost as Shibuto and Hinami puts their cards down and quits.)
"Hinami: Three of a Kind, but I'm beat."
"Shibuto: Only a two pair."
"Gaito: Sucks to be you two... BECAUSE I'M CLEANING THIS GAME! STRAIGHT FLUSH, MOTHERFUCKERS!!"
(As the table groans at Gaito's win, he'd then take all the money left in the middle of the table as Kirby demands another game.)
"Kirby: Another game! This time, I'm sure I'll win!"
"Gaito: Okay sure. On one condition... Everyone has to go ALL OUT!"
(As everyone agreed to the rules, Gaito puts out his cigar as everyone was serious.)
"Lotus: Got room for one more?"
(As Gaito smirks confidently and deals Lotus in, everyone at the table was then serious as they all played a competitive game throughout the road trip to the gaming convention.)
