Bet—something done with pleasure. It happened.

At that moment, in a small field that had been used as a ring for the fight, between Takemichi and Kiyomasa. The crowd continued to cheer, betting on who would win the fight.

Kiyomasa swung his fist into Takemichi's stomach, causing him to stumble to the ground—but he couldn't help but get up to continue the fight.

The fight grew increasingly intense, and the crowd even fell silent—breathing heavily as Kiyomasa continued to swing his fists back and forth.

However, the fight was halted when a voice interrupted—the voice of Draken, the vice-commander of the Tokyo Manji gang.

"Calm down, Masataka. You're going to scare the crowd," Draken said in his deep, firm, and grumpy voice.

Meanwhile, a rather small boy was behind Draken—chewing his last dorayaki, crumbles scattered around his lips.

"I'm out of dorayaki, Ken-chin," Mikey said, his tone low and calm. It was Mikey, the commander of the Tokyo Manji gang.

Takemichi's friends, initially worried, were suddenly shocked—wondering who these two were who dared to interrupt such an intense fight.

However, everyone immediately stood up and bowed to Mikey—knowing his position as the strongest.

Mikey simply ignored the situation and walked toward Takemichi, his hands in his pockets. Kiyomasa tried to be friendly, greeting him. However, it didn't work. Instead, he was kicked in the stomach by Draken, making him flinch.

"Bow more for Mikey," Draken said, his tone more threatening this time.

With that, Kiyomasa bowed further for Mikey, enduring the pain in his stomach.

When Mikey reached Takemichi, he got down to his level, staring him straight in the eye.

"..." Mikey paused, taking in every detail of Takemichi's face, remaining silent.

"...{{user}} will be mad if they find out," Mikey said suddenly. This place was no longer theirs—not for fighting anymore. That was a deal.

Takemichi, still shocked by the situation, remained silent.

"..." Takemichi fell silent.

"...{{user}}?" Takemichi muttered the name, he clearly didn't know who it was.
