Oi, you hear about Heikku High?
Ah, about how Kuroda lost his Banchou title to some first year, right?
And it was on the very day he'd transferred in.
Kaah! Kuroda is pathetic!
It can't be helped. That guy has no guts.
That's too true!
D-Damnit!
Kuroda-san! This is bad!
Those guys are from Hakkun!
K-Kitano-san!
As the end of the century approaches...
in a small and peaceful town...
a legend is being born.
02. The Beginning of the Legend!!
Oh no! Someone dropped their wallet.
If Kitano-san is here, there's nothing for us to be scared of.
Oi! Who were you saying is pathetic?!
Huh?
I can't just pretend I didn't hear that!
K-Kuroda-san?
Oh, it's just Kuroda.
You guys tryin' to pick a fight with Hakkun High?
Something like that.
If you're making fun of Heikiku High that much...
Kitano-san won't stay quiet!
Kitano?
K-Kuroda-san!
Kitano-san isn't there!
Kitano-san?!
Are you guys looking down of Hakkun?
Kojima Takeshi. 17 years old.
I'll return this to him after school.
B-Bus!
THE BUS IS GOING TO LEAVE!
As expected of Kitano-san.
With just his looks he scared away hose Hakkun guys. Amazing!
Kojima... Takeshi.
Do you know him?
K-Kojima is...
Hakkun's boss!
Hakkun High School?
It couldn't be, Kitano-san!
You're not satisfied with just scaring them...
and you're planning to raid Hakkun?!
Another day.
My precious students...
are looking as energetic as ever.
Looking at them like this...
reminds me of how lucky I am to be a principal.
I forgot!
That guy is still here!
Kitano Seiichirou is still here!
And so you guys just ran away and came back here, huh?
How pathetic!
Hayami!
Is it true that Heikiku has a new Banchou?
Yeah.
That's just like them...
those Heikiku guys.
Just 'cuz they have a new Banchou...
aren't they getting too full of themselves?
You gonna go at it, Takeshi?
We'll show those brats that they ain't so tough.
Hakkun High is a pretty big school, huh.
For now, It'd be nice if I could run into someone who knows Kojima-san.
What's with you?
You're not one of ours.
What're you doing in a place like this?
Ah. I'm sorry, but I have a quick question for you...
Do you know anyone by the name of Kojima Takeshi?
Huh?
W-What do you want with Takeshi?
Bastard! Who are you?!
I'm a first year from Heikiku, Kitano Seiichirou.
K-Kitano?!
This guy?!
Tihis is the monster who came in and crushed Kuroda on his first day?!
Um... Do you know where Kojima-san might be?
You keep saying "Kojima Kojima"- You're so annoying!
Takeshi isn't the only guy we got here at Hakkun!
Our Hakkun's Number Two is Hayami!
I'll take you on!
"Take you on"? What is he saying?
Maybe he's saying he'll guide me to where Kojima-san is?
What's wrong?!
What are you just standing there for?!
Ah! So he is taking me to him!
What?
What's with him?
He's just walking towards me with no stance!
The only ones who fight like this...
are either every day idiots or fighting masters!
This guys moves kind of weird.
What a funny way to walk...
He's attacking!
Damn! What's with this guy?
So he's really just an idiot?
Scarin' me like that...
Ah... I'm such a fool!
To laugh at the way someone walks...
I'm a horrible human being!
Of course I'd be hit!
Go ahead! Hit me until you're satisfied! I deserve it!
K-Kojima!
I have no business woth Number Two.
Where is your boss?
Well, aren't you full of yourself...
Kojima-san?
Is it you who's Heikiku's new boss?
ARE YOU OKAAAY??!!
I'd heard that you did boxing, but...
Whatever you do, it's useless.
I'll ask you once more!
Call out your boss!
Like I said...
I'm all that's needed to take you down.
I see.
Kojima-san!
Kojima-san, it's horrible!
What?
Hayami did?
It looks like he's not here...
the guy who can take me down.
Oi, Kuroda!
Yes?!
Tell this to your boss, Kitano...
Tomorrow morning, meet me in Sueyoshi park.
Bring as many men as you want, I don't care.
And also...
If he runs away...
I'll make it so that he can never walk outside again.
Or something like that.
Kitano-kun was unaware...
as the great battle between Heikiku and Hakkun...
drew him in.
Kitty-san.
Godd morning!
It's regrettable about the weather today...
but I have to return Kojima-san's wallet.
Good morning, Kitano-san!
Oh, Kuroda-san! Good morning!
Are you going to meet Kojima, Kitano-san?
How does he know about the wallet?
Kojima isn't at Hakkun.
He told me he'd be waiting at Sueyoshi park.
Ah!
So then... I can meet him at Sueyoshi park, huh?
Thanks.
You're going, Kitano-san?!
He could have any number of men with him, y'know!
Even then... If Kojima-san is waiting...
I'll still have to go.
What's wrong?
Kuroda-san!
You bastards!
Can't you understand Kitano-san's feelings?!
Kitano-san is going to protect us from being targeted by Hakkun!
Even though it's a fight he might lose!
Even though his face always looks like he's not thinking of anything...
he was actually thinking of us.
Yo, Stupid Threesome!
Huh?!
No matter how many underlings he brings they'd just get in the way.
So please don't feel the need to come along.
What's you say?!
Hey, Takehisa!
What shit are you spouting with your face looking like that?!
Good morining, Kitano-san.
Eh?!
W-What happened to Takehisa-kun's face?
It couldn't be... while I wasn't paying attention he tried to commit suicide again!
Takeshi, they're here.
That's Heikiku's new boss.
They're that confident.
There's that many of them!
If you're scared you should just go ahead and go home...
Stupid Threesome.
What?!
Who'd be scared in this situation?
That many people...
Us three are more than enough!
Oh? How reliable.
Then let's do it.
I'll hold down their Number Two.
Kitano-san.
Kojima-san must get lonely easily...
It's just to retrieve a lost wallet, but he's brought such many people!
Kitano-san.
Me and the Stupid Threesome will keep the small fry occupied.
Hey! I told you to stop it with the Stupid Threesome!
Yesterday, I learned my place...
I'm counting on you to take care of Kojima.
Y-Yeah...
After all, l'm the only one who has what Kojima-san needs.
Let's go, Stupid Threesome!
Bastard! Cut it out!
They're rally gonna fight?
There's only five of them!
You've done it now, bastard!
Bastard! Don't underestimate Hakkun!
That idiot!
Now we HAVE to go fight them!
What? What's happeing?
In any case... I have to stop them!
I'll have you pay for what happened yesterday.
"Pay"?
I see! About the wallet!
Then this must be Kojima-san!
Sorry.
Looks like I forgot to put it in my bag.
STAND YOU BASTARD!
Even if you beg for mercy now, I won't forgive you!
Triangle Formation ALPHA!
One!
Two!
Three.
Alright!
Not bad.
Don't get in my way...
Small fry!
Look who's talking...
Number Two.
Move out of the way.
If you don't...
I'LL CUT YOU!
Jeez.
You're an idiot.
You're not the only one with one of those!
You're the one that pulled it out first.
Take responsibility for it.
What's with this guy?
He hasn't attacked me once..
Is he planning something?
I see. I forgot his wallet.
It's obvious that he would want to punch me.
Blood from his wrist?
W-What?
A scar on his face?
Exactly who is this man?
The scar from the knife wound on Kitano's face...
is usually completely unnoticable,
but during certain times of stress, it becomes visible once more.
Takehisa-kun is trying to kill himself again!
Running away?!
That much blood!
You can't Takehisa-kun! You can't kill yourself!
You need to treasure your life!
Its your only life, given to you by your parents!
Takehisa-kun!
DON'T DIE!!
TAKEHISA-KUN!!
DON'T DIE!!
Takeshi!
Takeshi, Wake up!
Takeshi! Takeshi! Oi!
We lost.
Their boss beat our boss.
This fight is our...
Hakkun's...
loss.
The wallet?
That's right! Yesterday I put the wallet in my chest pocket!
Kitano-san!
Are you okay?
Takehisa-kun... your hand?
Oh! My injury is no big deal! More importantly...
Thank God.
K-Kitano-san?
Even though it was for Takehisa-kun's sake, I'm sorry I hit you.
Next time we meet... we can start over again.
What a persistant bastard!
Is he saying that today's fight wasn't enough?
That guy...
is not a normal person.
Just because he tried to return a lost wallet...
Because of a small thing like that...
Kitano Seiichirou's legend of terror became even larger.
Please save us...
My school...
My Heikiku High School!
Understood.
As per request, I will come to take care of your special student.
Until then.
