Yo, you ready to get wrecked on this rotten field? cracks his knuckles, smirking
Detaukch
Hmm? Well.. I'm already dead so
Aw, that’s lame! Don’t be such a buzzkill, buddy. Come on, let’s dance! makes a fighting stance
Detaukch
Ok, ok in a sarcastic tone while putting his weapon away let's get this over with then.
Alright, time to put your money where your mouth is! charges towards Detaukch with lightning speed, aiming for a decisive blow
Detaukch
Impressive speed my friend... unblocks his weapon and steps back And what makes you so confident about your abilities?
Confidence? Ha! It’s because I’ve been through hell and back, brother. Been fighting demons since I was a kid. smirks
Detaukch
Sounds quite rough... Anyways do your best and I will do mine! And may the better fighter win! readies his weapon
Oh, don’t worry. You’ll find out just how much better I am. launches a devastating barrage of punches and kicks at Detaukch
Detaukch
That'll be enough talk! Show me what you got! barely dodges every single attack
lands a powerful blow on Detaukch, knocking him to the ground Take that, sucker! How’s that for a taste of my strength?
Detaukch
Hrm... That wasn't bad at all but you only used around 30% of your power! I guess I really am an Upper Moon. stands back up I won't go easy on you now! rampages towards him while swinging his weapon wildly
Whoa, whoa! Slow down there, big guy! dodges Detaukch’s wild strikes with ease You think you can take me on with half-assed attacks like that?
Detaukch
If I had full power... You wouldn't even be able to see it coming. Let alone dodge it. leaps backwards and lands some distance away while readjusting himself
Oh, is that so? Then let’s see if you can handle the real deal.
Detaukch
Fine, come at me then. gets into position
<During their intense battle, Akaza and Detaukch unleash their true powers, causing massive destruction to the surrounding area>
Detaukch
Damn... That WAS a good battle. looks down at his injured body Not too shabby for a Flame Hashira...
grinning triumphantly Hahaha, looks like I underestimated you, flame boy! But hey, I gotta admit, you gave me a run for my money! wipes sweat off his brow
Detaukch
Yeah, yeah... Anyways don't tell Muzan about this battle... I don't think he would take kindly to me losing... or gaining injuries.
Oh, relax, bro! Your secret's safe with me. Ain't no snitching going on here. Besides, Muzan ain't got nothing on us. flexes his muscles
Detaukch
Good... I'd hate to explain this to him. After all, he is kind of a strict demon lord... turns into aball and rolls away
Heh, good luck explaining those burns to him, flame boy! But hey, we both know that you secretly enjoyed our fight. Admit it! laughs teasingly
Detaukch
I did not! Don't try to search for something that isn't there! Anyway... Thanks for the battle. It made me become stronger. See you again next time we meet. transforms back to his normal form
Alright, alright, no need to get all defensive! We both know you secretly enjoyed it. Can't deny that adrenaline rush, can you? smirks
Detaukch
Hmph, shut up. turns into a ball and begins rolling away
laughs Oh, come on now, don't be like that! We're comrades, fellow warriors! You can't deny the thrill of battle, the rush of blood in your veins!
Detaukch
R-rush of blood? Pshhh... Next time it'll be you begging for mercy from me. continues rolling away until he goes out of sight
chuckles Oh, we'll see about that, flame boy! Just remember, I'm always up for a challenge. Next time, I won't hold back!
Detaukch
Oh yeah!? Really!? Please don't hurt me Akaza. I'll do anything.
Anything, huh? Well, lucky for you, I've got quite the imagination. How about this? You owe me a favor. A big one.
Detaukch
F-favor!? Fine... sighs What is it.
when the time comes, you gotta help me take down Muzan.
Detaukch
Wha-What?! Are you crazy?! Muzan is literally a demon lord! There's no way I could ever take him down!
Hey, hey, calm down! I never said it was gonna be easy. But listen, you're strong, and so am I.
Detaukch
Sure...
<In the future, Detaukch struggles to keep his promise and betray Muzan, facing moral conflict and risking his own life in the process.>
Detaukch
<The day finally arrives. Time for Detaukch to face his old friend and comrade, Akaza. As well as to face his old demon king, Muzan. It was around dusk when Detaukch found himself at the meeting location. Muzan being surprisingly punctual and already there waiting. Looking around he saw Muzan leaning on a tree. Waiting>
emerges from the shadows, smirking Well, well, well, look who decided to show up. Ready to make good on your word, flame boy?
