Hajimete No Aku 111

I could translate the next one tonight and get caught up completely, but making total sense is really overrated. :-P



Chapter 111: The world's whereabouts.

HAJIMETE NO AKU

(Circle text- Who's hands will the world's fate rest in? The climax of the 'Nebiros' arc gets a glorious center color page!!!)

FUJIKI SHUN.

(Blue text- Loud, crazy, and stupidly ridiculous...)

(Blue text- This is our daily life!)

(TN- 'Daily life' is what's written in yellow.)

(Blue bubble- Kurosawa-san's first appearance, and the culture festival fill the pages of this volume!)

(Side red text- The newest volume of the super popular manga is in stores everywhere!!)

002

Jiro: My apologies, but I do have school to attend tomorrow.

I've no choice but to defeat you quickly and return home.

(Sfx- Jakaaa clack)

(Side text- At long last, the time to fight Kurusu is here!!)

(Sfx- Gyuuoooo fwooooosh)

(Sfx- Ooooooooh)

Yoh: This is that power from before...no...it's stronger than that...

I see, you must have trained yourself well, huh?

Jiro: But of course. I don't know how many times I risked death, including havinv to go toe to to with my sister.

But thanks to that, I gained this strength.

003

Jiro: This cape has an incredible amount of untapped strength.

And in order to use it, a great amount of resolve is needed.

(Sfx- Gyururururu winnnd)

Jiro: Once one has gathered their resolve, the cape responds by doubling their attack power.

(Sfx- Zahhh gooo fwooosh)

Jiro: This is the 'Battle mode'...!!

(Sfx- Zaahooooooo whooooooo)

004

(Sfx- Biri biri zzzt zzzt)

{He's not just bragging....!}

{Jiro-kun's completely different than he was before...!}

Yoh: That's good....I want to crush you when you're at your strongest...!

It wouldn't be much of a struggle for the world otherwise...!

I, Nebiros's Japanese branch commander, the 'Black Mist' Kurusu Yoh...

Will commence operation 'old guard removal',

Now!!

005

(Sfx- Gohh thooom)

Kurosawa: Uugh...

Agh..!

Kyouko: You're finally awake, Kurosawa-san!

Kurosawa: Where am I...?

Kyouko: Back on the ship. We came back here after we retreated.

(Sfx- Zugagagahhh dsssssh)

(Sfx- Dododododo tptmtmptmp)

(Sfx- Dohhhh thoom)

006

Kurosawa: I see, so Akuno Jiro is still there...

Yuki: Kurosawa-san!

Midoritani: Geez, look at them go! We wouldn't have stood a chance...!!

(Sfx-Dodoh thooom)

Aki: But I wanna know what's going on over there....

2.0: Me too! We should go back there and act as his backup!!

Shizuka: At least let me toss this rock at that Kurusu! I'll hit him for sure!

Akagi: And what if you hit Akuno instead?

Shizuka: But...

(Sfx- pan pan clap clap)

Kyouko: All right, that's enough.

It's dangerous for us there, so lets head back to port.

Besides, we've got school tomorrow, remember?

007

008

Midoritani: 4 am...

Yuki: Jiro-kun's been there for three hours now...

Aki: It's already really late...

(Sfx- Hara hara)

Kimura: D'ya think he....lost?

Girls: OF COURSE HE DIDN'T!!

(Sfx- Kuwaaah roooar)

2.0: Jiro-sama would never lose!!

Kimura: Well, I want to believe that, I really do...

Shizuka: Yeah! Jiro-san is really stronog!
Kimura: But the possiblity is...

Kurosawa: He is really late....

Geez, what is he doing....?

009

Kyouko: Here ya go.

Kurosawa: Watari-san.

Kyouko: Got some warm coffee for ya.

Aki: I guess we're all grumpy cause we haven't gotten any sleep.

Kyouko: I've got enough for everyone, so drink up~.

Kuroawa: Um, Watari-san, you don't have to push yourself...

(Handwritten- Coffee, oh yeah~)

Kyouko: Hm? What's that?

Kurosawa: I know all too well...

that you're worried about Akuno Jiro.

But you're trying to act as if it's not a big deal.

(Sfx- Koku koku nod nod)

(Sfx- zuuu slurrrp)

010

Kyouko: Well, I mean...I am worried, but..

But it's not a big deal!

(Sfx- Gooooooh fwhooooh)

(Sfx- Zeh hah)

Yoh: Man, this is the first time I've gotten this banged up.

I'd expect no less from the head of an evil organization...!

Hah...
Jiro: I'd appreciate it if you could just stay down....

It is unacceptable for me to be late for school tomorrow.

Zeh..

Hah..

Yoh: School this and school that...

Sounds nice, even if you are supposed to be a villain.

(Sfx- Zah sfft)

Jiro: Hm?

Kyouko: I mean, we can totally rely on Jiro, right?

So I don't need to be overly worried about him.

011

Kyouko: Sure he doesn't know much of anything, and he's a total airhead...

He gets wrapped up in the moment, and is easily influenced...

Yoh: I suppose since you were born and raised in an evil organization,

You don't know of the existence of people like me.

We have special powers, and so people became both curious and unsympathetic to us.

They'd try to strike at us, keep us down, while hiding behind the titles of justice and villainy....

(Sfx- Zuzuzuuu sfffft)

Yoh: Yet they treat the civilians so well... even going as far as making it the ultimate rule...'not to hurt them.'

Don't you think that's weird?

That's why I want to break it...

012

Yoh: Using my, no our intent to kill...

we'll direct these feelings to the whole world!!

If you think you can stop it...

(Sfx- Zuh zuhh dooom)

(Sfx- Gohhh thooom)

Yoh: Go ahead and try, evil organizational head!!

Kyouko: But...

013

Kyouko: Jiro isn't the kind of guy,

to let his heart waver!!

(Sfx- Zugaaa thooom)

Jiro: Do you understand the reasoning behind an evil organization,

when they bid for world domination, Kurusu?

014

(Sfx- Gogahhh thooom)

Yoh: What?

{He was able to to destroy that mass of killing intent?}

Jiro: It's because we love this world...

As much as the allies of justice.

Kyouko: He's super stubborn...

And once he says something, he sticks to it.

015

Kyouko: When he said 'leave it to me....

Jiro: Do you think your killing intent,

can stand up to my endearment?

Kyouko: It means he'll definitely pull through no matter what.

So I know..
(Sfx- Goshuuuu thwoooom)

(Sfx- Doooo thoom)

Jiro: If you honestly believe that...

016

{You're far too naiieve, 'Nebiros'!!!}

Kyouko: He'll be fine...!!

017

Yoh: Why didn't you finish me off?

I was going to destroy the world...

I don't need your pity.

Jiro: How trite. As a villain...

I have no interest in harming 'civilians'.

My one and only opponents are the allies of justice.

That is a rule we take pride in.

(Sfx- Zah tmp)

Jiro: If you are dissatisfied with this result, come at me whenever you want, and I will gladly accept.

018

Oogami: We lost...

(Sfx- Zahh tmp)

Yoh: Yup, we lost big!

I wonder if we should start over....?

Kyouko: Told ya, didn't I?

019

Kyouko: That he'd be okay.

Eiko: That was an awesome performance.
You're going to make an awesome leader!

Jiro!

(Side text- We knew you could do it, Jiro!! Next week, new developments!!)
