Sakigake!! Otoko Juku 142

With a wave of his sword and the power of his mind, Akashi has solved the puzzle of the third Kokurenju fighter. But as horrific as the first three assassins have been, Otokojuku's trouble is about to double! (or maybe...quadruple?)

Vol. 16: Roar of the Fierce Tiger
Chp. 142: Enter The Pooron Kokurenju Vice-Heads!!

7.
Fu Chin: Hi!!
Fu Chin: ………………………!!
Akashi: Well then……………do you want to fall to the depths of Hades…or do you wish to have your body split in two…………!? I don’t want to disgrace this blade with churl blood like yours if I can.

(Title page…FINALLY!)

9.
Toramaru: He’s done it--!! As expected, Akashi-senpai has gone from a desperate crisis to splendidly taking away and completely drinking the antidote on his head---!
Toramaru: That guy was terribly caught up in the moment until now performing his dirty behavior---!!
Togashi: He won’t answer if he’s concerned: that rotten-guts guy is going to get murdered~~~!!
Akashi: Well, what will you do………!?
Fu Chin: Ku!!
Fu Chin: Ho…hold on; I…I’ve lost. I…admit my defeat. The…the match is already over……
Fu Chin: Th…thus, just a life will…………

10.
Akashi: !!
Togashi: Aah: th…that guy: he’s still got a blowgun. What a wicked play---!!
Akashi: HA---!!

11.
Fu Chin: DIE!!

12.
Fu Chin: Fu…you’re really a great man; a man like you! It’s regretful, but I couldn’t deal with you with my skills. My doctrine is “There isn’t a match where there isn’t a chance”.
Fu Chin: But I don’t surpass nothing more than a low-ranking novice in our Pooron Kokurenju. Dealing with you was left to me by all my leaders and I’m being pulled back for the moment.
Toramaru: Wh…what---!! That guy plans to abandon the match and run---!
Togashi: That a**hole!! He’s a completely filthy guy---!
Fu Chin: Fu, there’s distance to the rope ladder that stretches to my camp. I won’t be able to escape from your blade and cross over that to return.

13.
Fu Chin: But I have my Jizaisen. It would be easy for me if I drove it into the wall of the battleground just before the ground and make it my lifeline, even if I jump down from this height.
Fu Chin: Uwahhaha, this is disappointing; but farewell!! We’ll meet again.
Akashi: ………..You can’t do it. I won’t meet you again in this world.
Fu Chin: Fufufu, what are you babbling about?

14.
Fu Chin: HUH!?
Fu Chin: Wh…what---!! Y…you, this…is--!
Fu Chin: Gyaaa~~~!!

15.
Akashi: Ichimonji-ryuu: Mijinken!! Did a guy like you think you could escape from me!
(TN: “Mijinken” = “Atom Sword” or “Minute Dust Sword”)
Toramaru: R…right: the Jizaisen was in small pieces with that flash at the moment he attacked with the blowgun………………!!
Togashi: And he had seen through the calculation even to the mentality that this guy would run away……!!
Date: We have a completely dreadful senpai. The Kokurenju trio were never weak, he was merely too strong.

16.
Kokurenju 1: That idiot Fu Chin……to expose us to an unsightly death……………
Kokurenju 2: Whose going next…………!?
Voice 1: Fu, who is going next…………
Voice 2: Do you think we going to leave this to all of you any longer?
Kokurenju 1: !!
Kokurenju 2: T…they are…………!!
Kokurenju: P…please hold on: the two of you, who are each the Kokurenju second-in-commands which have tradition for these youngster opponents, will not hold onto our honor to appear here. Please, leave this to us!!

17.
Voice: Leave it to you……
Kokurenju: !!
Kokurenju: Ge!!
Voice: Why say leave it to you?
Kokurenju: GUGYA---!!
Voice: Let’s go, big bro.
“Little Brother”: These Otokojuku……let’s fully show them the true power of the Kokurenju.

18.
Toramaru: O…Ossu, thank you very much for that!!
Togashi: N…no, but isn’t it that reassuring that Akashi-senpai had come as our supporter.
Momotarou: It’s been a while; by the way, I’ve heard that there were actually three supporters that were coming here, but who are coming as the last two?
Akashi: I don’t know. I’m the only one who just came, by order of the principal.
Momotarou: ……………………
Toramaru: Ooh!! L…look: someone is walking across the rope-ladder from the Kokurenju encampment and coming down---!
Togashi: Th…they’re the next competition opponents----!!

19.
Amon: MY NAME IS AMON, VICE-HEAD OF POORON KOKURENJU
Unmon: I’M UNMON, SIMILARLY A VICE-HEAD OF KOKURENJU!!

20.
Amon: We are one form with two bodies……!! We both come together to use one fist.
(TN: I probably am going to get a lot of people yelling at me for my translation but hear me out: Amon and Unmon introduce themselves at this point as "Nishin Ittai", which literally translates as "two 'bodies' (as in two beings, being that their a duo), 'one form'" (being that they work together as "one" in their fighting style). Because of their introduction here as such, I decided to translate it in English when used as such. However there are a few points after this, such as one of the next lines) that has Amon and Unmon's style as "Nishin-Ittaiken", which is the exact same only in recognition of their 'fist'/'fighting style'. Since this literally isn't how the Kokurenju duo fights and their actual fist is another one with "Nishin-Ittaiken" more being in reference to "a fist that's one form with two bodies", it will remain translated when stated as such)
Unmon: Therefore, regardless of how many you have, all of you can come at us in a group of many.
Toramaru: What: a fist that's one form with two bodies!? So…in short, this means a combination play!!
Togashi: And yet, how could just them be wearing a white kenpou gi……!!
Toramaru: Yossha, now it’s my turn---!!
Togashi: You’re noisy: now it’s my turn---!!
Togashi & Toramaru: !!
Toramaru: Wh…what’s wrong…………!? Wo…won’t you stop us?
Togashi: If…if this was as usual, I’m certain someone would enter in from the side, and yet…

21.
Momotarou: I’m requesting, Togashi, Toramaru: here we’re leaving it to both of you.
Togashi & Toramaru: ……………
Togashi: Is…that alright: we…we’re re…really going…!!
Toramaru: Since this here Tenchou Gorin Daubukai started, the who—le time the…two of us have had the role of the surprised guys………………………!!
Hien: One form with two body, which was dreaded as an illusionary special technique in ancient Chinese kenpou…………!! By giving it perfect attention, it’s best that you two go.
Togashi: TO…TORAMARU~~!!
Toramaru: To…Togashi, it’s our turn at last~~~!!

22.
Togashi: Let’s go---!!
Toramaru: Right---!!
Toramaru: Uwaa---!!
Toramaru: I…I fell---!! Le…lend me a hand, Togashi---!
Togashi: Wh…what are you doing: really, you!! What will you do dying before you fight, idiot~~~!!
Date: Will those two be alright? Those guys of Kokurenju now have quite remarkable abilities.
Momotarou: Fu…Toramaru, Togashi: you shouldn’t mock those two.

23.
Momotarou: THEY’RE HARDCORE GENUINE OTOKOJUKU
Momotarou: It’s been a year since the Paaren Seiha battle……!! I know that they’ve been doing secret special-training behind our backs during that time.
Date: Secret special-training…………!?
Momotarou: THEY HAVE POWER THAT CAN’T BE MEASURED.

24.
Togashi: FIRST-YEAR OF OTOKOJUKU: TOGASHI GENJI!!
Toramaru: JUST THE SAME: TORAMARU RYUUJI!!
Amon: They’re our opponents?
Unmon: Even Otokojuku has many types from best to worst, big bro.
Unmon: Don’t we have techniques we can use for someone like them if naturally……!!

25.
Amon: LET’S SHOW THEM: KOKURENJU AUNKEN!!
(TN: “Aunken” is a combination of the two names for Amon and Unmon, and can be translated as “Fist of Inhaling and Exhaling”, “Fist of Respiration” or “Fist of Alpha and Omega”)
Toramaru: Wh…what~~~!! Those two are piling together in the exact same stance, becoming one~~~!
Togashi: You…you idiot: that’s enough of being surprised; this is our fight----!!

TN: WELL IT'S ABOUT TIME!!! Sorry I had to say that so excitedly but when you have Togashi and Toramaru finally entering the battle stage for the first time since the Paaren Seiha after being stuck as comic relief and "surprised commentators" for the entire preliminaries (let alone how one of them did very little in his last fight anyway...thank you very much, Date), having them face off against the potential seconds-in-command of Kokurenju is definitely a nice change of pace, in particular seeing how everything that had happened until now to them being parodied as the moment finally happened (Togashi and Toramaru not being stopped by any other Otokojuku fighter, Toramaru's "surprised commentary" at the end) I guess that when you have so many super-skilled warriors on Otokojuku's good side now, you tend to forget that it was the First-Years (and yes, I mean all the First-Years, not just Momo or J) that were the main fighting force earlier in the series. Oh...and before I forget: Fu Chin was a creep and his death by way of Akashi was well deserved. (had to get that in, it wasn't like the whole chapter was finally getting the idiot brothers on the battleground)
