HAJIMETE NO AKU

Chapter 97: Presidential election day.
FUJIKI SHUN

Shizuka: Greetings Kurosawa-san!!

Do you want me to carry your bags?!

(Side text- Do justice organizations have physical education meets?)

(Handwritten- Um, do you think you could stop spying on me, please?)

(Side text- The beach house and road trip to Kyuushuu are tons of fun!!)

(Bold side text- The newest volume #8 is out in stores!)

002

{Saburo while sustaining heavy injury from the enemy has fallen in defeat.}

{Jiro trembles in anger.}

(Side text- The enemies with the huge killing intent have fled before Saburo could find out their true identities....but then...)

{They've been able to keep one step ahead up until now, but...}

Kurosawa: Wait a moment...

Saburo-san is clutching something...

This is...

{These are pictures of Jiro and the others.}

{With the last of his strength, Saburo had managed to steal them from the enemy.}

003

Kurosawa: So it seems that their target is us.

So they've been attacking civilians in an effort to call us out?

Shizuka: But why are they after us to begin with...?

Jiro: Intriguing....!

But contrary to their beliefs, we will crush them!!

(Sfx- Zaaaah fwoosh)

Jiro: Even if we have to split blades of grass, we'll find them!!

Kurosawa: No, Akuno Jiro....

We can't do that.

They expect us to chase after them, and doing as they want will only end with us being defeated like Saburo-san.

Jiro: Wha---but then...!!

Kurosawa: I've been thinking...

004

{Two weeks later....}

{On the presidential election day....}

{Candidate 2nd year, 7th class Akuno Jiro. (Opposition.)}

(Sfx- Zann sff)

{Same as above, Kimura Yoshihito. (Observer.)}

(Sfx- Zaaan sfff)

{Same as the others, Kurusu Yoh. (Favorite.)}

(Sfx- Zan sfff)

(Sfx- Gogogogogogo rmmmmmble)

{It's these three.}

Akagi: From seven candidates to three? Wow.

Aoki: How'd things end up this way?

005

Yuki: 'Cause, bad stuff kept happening to the other candidates.

Aki: Some how, Akuno and the other two managed to get out without getting hurt...

Yuki: But they're like, saying this election is 'cursed' since other candidates keep getting hurt.

Akagi: Cursed?

Kimura: Cursed? Gahahah, don't make me laugh! Of course that can't happen!

(Sfx- Puhee)

(On sash- Kimura Yoshihito)

(Sfx- Heh heh nyo hahahah grin)

Kimura: That's just what the scardy cats want you to believe!

Yoh: You sure are brave, Kimura-kun!

Aki: Nah, that's just stupidity.

Kyouko: What's with you? You're sort of quiet....

Jiro: Hm? Oh, I guess I am a bit taciturn...

Kimura: Awww, is the widdle baby scared?!

If that's the case, I'm a shoo in for president!

(Sfx-Yay!)

Yoh: Anyway, lets all hope for good luck!

(Sfx- wai)

006

(Sfx- Biiih weeee)

Minori: And now the final speeches for the presidential candidates well begin!

Now until the speeches are over, you guys have to stay in your seats! Getting up to leave is a big no-no!

Of course the chairman of this meet is me, everyone's idol Minorin~! Yay!

(Sfx- Wah)

Kyouko: Jiro's been acting weird lately...

It's like he's been really tense for some reason.
I sure hope nothing strange is about to happen...

007

(Top- Presidential election.)

Minori: And now our first candidate, Kimura Yoshihito!!

Kimura: All right, here I go.

Yoh: Good luck!

(Sfx- Wah)

008

Kurosawa: Their target is us.

More likely than not, they're only involving civilians to force our hand.

So there isn't really any need for us to meticulously search each person to find them.

If we want to save the innocent, there's a simple course of action we need to take.

Shizuka: We need to make it easy for them to find us then, right?

Kurosawa: Yeah.

And that comes down to a matter of timing. We need to make things convenient for them.

A perfect example would be a situation where there are no civilians around.

Perfect timing for them to move as they wish.

009

Yoh: Soon it'll be our turn, huh?

Man, I'm so nervous!

Jiro: That's right, but it's only natural.

Though I do apologize, since you'll have to bow in defeat to me.

For you see, It's already been decided that I will be the victor here.

In any case, it's for the school that I take a stand..

So when I do become president...
My first order of business is subjugating interferences.

010

(Sfx- Dooon thock)

011

012

(Sfx- Zuuhhh ssssh)

Kurosawa: They're on the move!

(Sfx- Zah zah fwff fwff)

(Sfx- Dath dash)

Kyouko: Hm?

(Sfx- Gugiii grnnnd)

Yoh: Well I'll be...cats out of the bag, huh?

Whatta shame~!

(Sfx- Giiiishii grnnd)

Jiro: The timing of you transferring to this school...

And the presidential election were more than coincidences.....it could be no other person but you.

(Sfx- Giriii giriii giriii grnnd grnnnd)

013

Jiro: You've had enough fun.

Now tell me your objective.

Yoh: The construction of a new order...

I guess.

You villains and heroes are too soft, you know?

So a more powerful entity needs to step in and run things.

Yoh: Don't you think?
(Sfx- Bohhh)

014

(Sfx-Guiii grnnnd)

Yoh: Huh?

Wow~

Jiro: The ramifications for underestimating me,

Are rather high.

You've greatly angered me, louse!

(Sfx- Gogahhh Thoooom)

015

(Sfx- Para para clatter clatter)

(Sfx- Zaaah ffff)

{What...?!}

{I was targeted from two sides....}

(Sfx- Bah fwap)

(Sfx- Gah fwish)

{Damn....}

Shizuka: Jiro-san!!

(Sfx- Baaan slaam)

Oogami: Too late.

Attack. Heavy crusher....

(Sfx- Gyuuu reee)

016

Shizuka: Eh?!

Kurosawa: So there are two of you...
No matter, because now...

017

{We've seen through...}

{Your combo!!}

(Sfx- Zuuun thok)

Oogami: Ugh...!

Kurosawa: Consider my debt paid.

Shizuka: A—amazing Kurosawa-san!

Jiro: You saved me...!

Kurosawa: Of course. I am an active ally of justice.

Now please stay back, Shizuka-san....

(Sfx- Zukii grnnd)

Kurosawa: They're not the type of enemies...

018

Kurosawa: To be defeated by such an attack.

Yoh: You got beat too huh?

Oogami: That attack just now hurt...

Yoh: Well....

(Sfx- Zuhhh)

Yoh: Let's get our show on the road....

As long as we crush the two of them, our problems are solved.

(Side text- The true identities of their enemies revealed, Jiro and Kurosawa team up to take them down!! Next issue, they clash!!)

(Sfx- Zahhhhh)
