Chp. 202: The Two Raiden!!

127.
Toramaru: Wh…what~~~!! Daioujou-ryuu Kyokuougi: Hanryuu Soutai~~~!
Togashi: I…I don’t believe this---!! Ra…Raiden has be…become a pair---!

128.
(Title page: Two Raiden…maybe this series is starting to enter a new territory…never mind, it’s been unbelievable for a while now)

129.
Raiden: Now, you should come Ryoukou……………!! First my clone, in other words, this shadow, will be your opponent!!
Ryoukou: That’s a hilarious shadow……!! But are you deceiving me……

130.
Ryoukou: By using that trick----!!
Ryoukou: !!

131.
Toramaru: Huh!? Wh…what is this now……!!
Togashi: Th…the V-sign of victory…………!?
Ryoukou: Nuu!!

132.
Ryoukou: Huh!!
Ryoukou: Y…you………!!

133.
Ryoukou: Are you ridiculing me---!!
Raiden: This shadow is a comedian, different from I. He has a bad habit of making people angry.
Ryoukou: …………!!
Toramaru: A…amazing, that light body---!! It’s…as if he’s superhuman--! Fu…further, he’s recklessly winding up Ryoukou----!!
Toramaru: I…I’ve got it---!! The true identity of that other Raiden---! He…he’s Raiden’s twin brother---!! E…even so, his personality is cheerful--!
Togashi: Th…that’s it. I’m certain he’s that!!

134.
Date: That’s…stupid…………we hadn’t heard about that and that’s unbelievable no matter how you think about it!!
Togashi: Bu…but…………!!
Toramaru: So…so then, wh…what exactly is he…………..!?
Togashi: …………!!
Momotarou: Even so, that isn’t ordinary taijutsu. It’s as if he doesn’t have a problem with that Ryoukou’s fierce swordplay!!
Ryoukou: Kuu!!

135.
Raiden: No matter how you brandish your sword, it’s useless…it’s impossible to see through that shadow’s agility!!
Ryoukou: Do you think you can run away forever from me with just agility!!

136.
Ryoukou: I’VE GOT YOU---!!

137.
Toramaru: Ra…Raiden---!!
Togashi: N…no, Raiden #2 has been killed by being split in two parts from his trunk---!!
Ryoukou: Fu, you’re left in that mood!! With that state!

138.
Ryoukou: With this, the shadow is dead. Now, next is your turn to be like that.
Raiden: Well, that’s how it is somehow. A shadow is a shadow……! Similarly, the shadow of a moon reflected on a lake can never be cut……!!
Ryoukou: N---?
Ryoukou: !!

139.
Ryoukou: …………That’s stupid………!!
Ryoukou: Ha!!
Ryoukou: WH…WHAT~~~!!
Toramaru: Uoo~~~!! Wh…what’s going on~~~!
Togashi: The…trunk and lower half that were cut are moving again---!!

140.
Ryoukou: ……………!!
Toramaru: Aaaaand they’re attached again---!!
Togashi: He…hey, n…no more----!!

141.
Raiden: Has it come to be over? Well, shadow, now it seems you plan on launching your attack!!
Ryoukou: …………!!
Ryoukou: This isn’t blood……………!! It’s merely red dye……………!
Ryoukou: And this hair……………!!
Ryoukou: Fu, doing this to me…………!! It seems I’ve read it: the true identity of that monster.
Momotarou: It…can’t be: the true identity of the shadow is……………!!
Date: !?

142.
Ryoukou: It’s useless. I’ve already read your true identity!!
Ryoukou: Even your agility can’t be used now!!

143.
Raiden: !!
Ryoukou: Fu, you falter to fire after all!! No matter how much you pile on your training, you can’t hide just your bestial instinct!!
Ryoukou: THIS IS YOUR TRUE IDENTITY---!!

144.
(Yep…that probably proves why they were monkey-ing around...)

145.
Kanji on Monkeys (right to left): JOU | OU | DAI
Toramaru: Wh…what---!! Th…those mo…monkeys are----! The Kenpou Monkeys of that guy called Enpou, one of the Sanpousei from our battle against Gandhara in the Daibukai Preliminary League Finals---!!
(TN: Slight reminder: those monkeys’ names are Mizaru, Iwazaru and Kikazaru)
Togashi: Th…they were acting as Raiden’s clone---!!
Raiden: Now was just in place of a greeting!! This time, I myself will be your opponent!!
Ryoukou: Fufu, you don’t know your social position…………!! One man and three monkeys………………!! I’ll bury you in hell together!
(TN: Ryoukou makes a mention here of “hitori to sanpiki”, with “hitori” referring to the “one human” and “sanpiki” being in reference to the “three animals”…in this case being monkeys)

TN: Didn't I tell you way back: monkeys...are...awesome. And even better: Raiden...having...monkeys...is...awesome!! Considering that he did treat the trio of simians way back around the end of his fight with Enpou, it would possibly make sense they would gain a bit of respect to work with him, but to see them fighting on the battlefield, mocking Ryoukou and making weird postures and faces like Raiden never would was hilarious. I think the main purpose was to just rile Ryoukou...but it did it's job and hopefully will make his job a lot easier. (though there is still...that attack...and who knows if Raiden or monkey will get out or avoid that) But hey, I can't say anything more: the monkeys are back on Otokojuku's side!
