FLAGS
battle.3 "The Opening of Ouka Grand Competition"
Pg. 1
** The ultimate 5x5 battle with one's pride and life on the line!! **
** Level of support rises rapidly! Thanks for all the fan letters!! **
** Are you ready? **

Pg. 2
** Ouka Grand Competition is finally starting!! **
Noral - We're here now.
The screening competition will take place here.

Nishiki - Screening competition? Normally, they will just start the competition though...
Kurou - Wasn't it because of too much competitors compared to the past? So they have to do some screening?

Noral - I can only guide you to here for today.
I have some part-time to attend to, so good luck to you all.

Kya!!
Excuse me!
My glasses,
my glasses...

Pg. 3
Kurou - Alright, let's get going then!!

Journalist - Hey, wasn't that!!

The Patriots of Toutou?
Oh, you mean those!!

Nagasu - What? That's one really good response for us there, isn't it!?
Kurou - You're talking about me?
Nagasu - Like hell he'll talk about you.
Maybe it's me...

Pg. 4
Journalist - It's Nishiki!!
Nagasu + Kurou - Nishiki!?

Journalist - The driving force behind the stride of Toutou along with Akazome Tsubame,
that's him, Kiritake Nishiki.

Fans - Umm...I'm your fan, Nishiki-san...
would you please sign in this autograph?

Kyaaa, thank you very much!
Journalist - Nishiki-san, what's the reason for not participating in this time's competition?
Are the members of your team this time as strong as you are?
Kurou - Keh, it's Nishiki, huh?

Uwo

Pg. 5
Hey, look where you're going!!

Toral - WHOOPS!! SORRY 'BOUT THAT!!!

I WAS THINKING OF SEEING THAT FAMOUS NISHIKI A BIT!!
WELL THEN, I BETTER INTRODUCE MYSELF FIRST!!

Pg. 6
I’M THE PATRIOT OF TANELIA!! TORAL CYRANO OF THE LYSLIA FAMILY!!!
Pilaria – And I’m Pilaria Nonno!!

Toral – EVERYTHING IN THIS COMPETITION WILL BE OF OUR LA COSA NOSTRA!!
Pilaria – La Cosa Nostra~

Nagasu – Is this that Mafia team Noral was talking about!!?
Kurou – His voice is just so loud!!
Usagi – But the two at the back are sleeping as if nothing happened!!

??? – Everyone from Toutou, let me see what you’re made of.
My first target shall be…

Pg. 7
the one that stuck out the furthest of all.

Pg. 8
Kurou - What's wrong, Seiryumaru?

Boss - It doesn't work, hm?
??? - Yes, just as you said, boss.

Pg. 9
Fufu...
Pilaria - Hehe

Nishiki - Being rude all of the sudden there, are you...
You better go thank Sei.
Kurou - Dammit, that loud man really distracts me!!

Toral - But the Toutou aren't as good as rumored, hm?
There're openings everywhere.

Pg. 10
Kurou - Say what, you round glasses!!

Toral - SUUUUU

RINFRESCANTE BREZZA!!!
== Refreshing Breeze

Pg. 11

Pg. 12
Heh
Wow, he managed to hold on with his hand.

Kurou - You've been doing as you wish a lot, haven't you?
Hope you've prepare yourself then.

Seiryumaru!?
Seiryumaru - I understand that you want to fight back,

Pg. 13
but if you're Patriots,
then save your energy for the real one.

Pg. 14
Boss - My apologies then. Seem like my team is excited for the upcoming competition.

Toral - SEE YA!!
Kurou - I said, your voice is too loud, round glasses!!

Dammit, just remember that when we meet on the real stage!!
Nishiki - That should make a good lesson for a rookie like you.

But that's one firm spirit you have there, Sei,

Pg. 15
as expected from the successor of the title "Seiryumaru", the head of Tatsuguchi Family.
Nagasu - Tatsuguchi!!?

Oh yeah, the family that recieves an honorable duty
of the eternal guardian of Toutou from the emperor...

"Seiryumaru" is the title...
of the head of that family, as passed on from generation to generation.

Pg. 16
Leaving the name aside, Seiryumaru is already an awesome guy as he is.
Keep it up, Captain.

Pg. 17
Noral - Now's the time for the starting of the screening competition.
All the Patriots have already gathered at the central arena.

Grettings, lady and gentlemen. I'm Noral, and I'll be your MC for today.

Kurou - Noral...then your part-time is being a MC?
Nagasu - Is she actually that poor?
Nishiki - Well, come to think of it, we are the only guests of that hotel...
Nagasu - But their food tastes great though.

Pg. 18
Noral - Lady and gentlemen, please look at this waterfall. This place is where the electricity is generated.
Here, we use plant oil mixed with mud to produce a highly viscous mud and use it to generate electricity.

Patriots - Stop wasting time. Explain to us about the competition already!!
We're not here for sightseeing. Stop explaining about the waterfall.
Noral - Eh,
umm...

Fing - Just listen to what she has to say...we'll be using this waterfall for the starting line of the competition anyway.

Pg. 19
Kurou - Fing!!

Patriots - The prince...

of Ouka!!

Noral - Um, I'll let Prince Fing, who was the proposer of this, to explain to you then.
Fing - Ehem.

Pg. 20-21
Heißel - So you're that rumored prince.
-- Patriot of Aibone: Heißel --

Kaya - Pretty laid-back there, are you...
Think we'll actually listen to you?
-- Patriot of Tundra: Kaya --

Pein - Doesn't this point to "No tournament" either way...?
-- Patriot of Heldral: Pein --

Phixus - It's fine if we cross out one competitor right now, right?
-- Patriot of Denkou: Phixus --

Pg. 22
Fing - Yes, this air of tension is just perfect!!

I was thinking that it'd be great if I can enjoy more of these vigor and thrist for blood.

A mundane battle on the neat stage?
That's just too easy, that it's not worth fighting for.

So, since Ouka is wide, we'll use the whole empire.
Everyone will be heading to the center, and fight along the way.

And yes, those who survive to the center will compete in the tournament.

Pg. 23
So first, you'll have to get pass this waterfall, using whatever you want.
Whoever can get pass that means you've passed the minimum requirement.

Phixus - Heh, just because you're an idealistic playful prince? But know what,
we, Patriots, are not pieces in your game.

Kurou - That's interesting.

Pg. 24
I'm buying that, Fing!
We're the Patriots. We'll fight with anyone anywhere anytime!!

Nagasu - Hell, isn't that because you're the rookiest of all of us?

Phixus - Fu

Pg. 25
HAHAHAHA!!

Looks like we have one straightforward Patriot here.
Fine then. I'll buy that as well, Prince.

Kaya - My, these guys...
they're just

Pein - (...Well, save us more trouble that way though.)

Nishiki - (Changing the atmosphere in an instant like that...
very impressive, Kurou.)

Pg. 26
Noral - So, let's begin the screening competition.
Please walk into this muddy waterfall.

Kurou - We just have to get passed this, right?
Noral - Ah, Kurou-san.

Kurou - I used to be in the middle of the rushing dam water bef-...

Pg. 27
...What's this? This isn't just some normal waterfall.
These mud are so dense and sticky like mochi.

??? - Pathetic little kid,
I'm going to show you how to get pass this smoothly.

Pg. 28
Kikuro - Wow, that guy got crushed flat.
Usagi - So, we really can't walk in normally, right...?

Fing - The natural world of Ouka is awesome, right, Kurou?

Pg. 29
Kurou - Fing, where are all your teammates?

Fing - Marimari is under some disciplinary measure right now after what she did.

Majority of my team is free and irresponsible after all.
Fuh

So, I'm doing this alone for the time being.
See you up ahead then.

Kurou - Hey! You're planning to go in just like that!?

Pg. 30
Not even budge!!?

Nishiki - (As expected from the prince...)
(Such an elegant way of using his "power.")

Pg. 31
Kurou - ...That guy
is just totally awesome.

Patriots - He went in!!?
That fragile guy did it!!

So that guy just now was just too big then.
Let's all go in!!

GYAA!!
GAH!!
GOWAH!!
GUHOH!!

Pg. 32
Heißel - Gosh, those weaklings.

Heiß Linie!!
== "Hot steelsworded arm": Special thanks to zidane and Chibi_Maoh (in mIRC) for helping me out with the German.

Heiß Geschenk!!
== "Combustive present"

Pg. 33
Phixus - Let's get going in the stylish way then.

Umbrellight.

Kikuro - Those people that stood out just now are pretty good, aren't they?
Usagi - Well...we better get going as well.

Boss - You're not going in?

Pg. 34
Kurou - Since when did they-

Boss - I'm going in now then, if you don't mind...

Pg. 35

Pg. 36
Kurou - Those tiny guns are pretty rough.
Just what kind of bullets was loaded in there?

Boss - I just hit on the most fragile part.

You know what? We, Mafias,...
once we find the weakpoint, we will never let it slip away.

Pg. 37
??? - UWA
It's collapsing.
Dammit, he just make more water rushing down!!

Pg. 38
GUWAH
GYAA
ARGH

Noral - Th-...Thank you.

Nagasu - Hell, those guys left quite a souvenir behind for us.

Kurou - Hey,

They were doing all the things one-sidedly on us...
but I really have to thank those Tanelia guys,
since they've filled me up...

Pg. 39
with the resolution to battle seriously now!!

BANSAN

KAIHOU!!
== Bansantou: Activate!!

Pg. 40

Pg. 41
BANSANKISOU TAKIWARI!!
== Ten-Thousand Slashes Flag, Waterfall-splitter

Pg. 42
Let's go.

Nishiki - I seriously want you to see this...Tsubame.
Looks like your boy had just made one big shot.

Well, let's get going then.

Pg. 43
Boss - Whoops, a miss, hm...?

Toral - Hahaha, this time, it's the boss's misses!!
Pilaria - There, we won the bet. Give us the money then.
Boss - Oh, shut up. Alright, fine. I get it.
??? - "It doesn't work, hm?" (kukuku)
Boss - Geez, I know, I know!!
??? - *yawn*

Pg. 44
Nagasu - Will they ever learn to stop meddling with us?

Fing - Oh, that's quite a fast start.

Well, before you know it, you already get one good one.
So, guess I won't mind.

Pg. 45
Kurou - Let's get this
settled then.

** Toutou vs Tanelia **

Thank you for reading...
