Third person POV
Hearing Michizou's demands to the Agency and his command to open fire at them, Arturo was mildly shocked; he was being hunted down by them, and Atsushi, the Weretiger, was in their circle of bounty. So, as bullets were fired at the office of the Agency, Arturo snuck in with his shadows without the gang detecting or catching him. The Agency members ducked behind their desks to avoid being hit by the stray bullets. Michizou is firing his dual pistols while laughing at the scene. And then, the Filipino-Korean student blocked the bullets with his shadow ability, Into the Shadows: Shadow Wall.
The bullets were blocked by the dark wall and got stuck in its porous surface, and Michizou and the gang were shocked to see that.
Almost simultaneously, the Agency members Kunikida, Junichiro, and Kenji noticed that the bullets had stopped raining and got up, only to be surprised by how Arturo was defending them with his ability.
"What?" Kunikida commented while readjusting his glasses.
"Woah…" Kenji was rather amazed.
"Is that his ability?" Junichiro added while being worried for the student.
"What the hell?" Michizou was shocked with some anger.
Opening his eyes, Arturo looked at them with a semi-cold glare. "You dare to attack the Agency, you gangsters…"
"You…You bratty kid!" Michizou was filled with rage. "Are you that 'Shadow kid' who humiliated the 'Silent Dog'?!"
"Oh, you mean…Akutagawa-san, wasn't he?"
"Yes, damn it! You'd better pay for his humiliation, you shadow student brat!"
Arturo was surprised, then he let out a relaxing chuckle and said, "Yes, it was me who humiliated me because he abducted me to extract any info about this Agency…I did so and lied to him about a mission in northern Yokohama by that Agency. Now…go on and hit me…"
As Michizou and his gang were full of rage, Kunikida and the others were stunned at his bravery in outsmarting the Silent Dog Akutagawa, a thing they thought to be almost impossible. Outsmarting Akutagawa was supposed to be impossible, yet this student had done it with ease as if he were good at it.
And so, Michizou barked to his men, "Fire!" The bullets were rained down at Arturo, and the Agency members had to duck down behind their desks for safety. Arturo held his ground like glue before using his shadow ability and another ability called Golden Word, which allows a user to physically manifest anything with a pen on paper, with the tentacles of his shadows. The fight was intense, with the Filipino Korean dodging their attacks gracefully while hurling attacks with his Golden Word ability via electrocution jolts and objects, ones that are not too heavy or big, dropping on the armed men.
"What the hell?!" Michizou was frustrated.
Arturo then let out a slight, non-smug grin. "Take that idiot."
Getting even more desperate and enraged, Michizou lunged at him with his dual pistols. "I will tear shadows apart!"
But Arturo held his waist with his shadows in the air.
"Let me go, you shadow-freak!" Michizou growled while being restrained by the shadows around his waist in the air.
"Nope, unless you stop this and get lost!"
"Damn you, brat!"
Meanwhile, back at the Uzumaki café, Atsushi had just gotten out of the restroom when the cashier and the cook frantically revealed to him what his friend was doing upstairs. It seemed that the two of them had heard the bullets and the thuds of the armed gangsters. Atsushi was utterly shocked. "W-What?! Him?! Alone?!"
The cashier then nervously nodded. "He said that to us, kid."
Because of that, Atsushi didn't want to wait a few extra minutes for an elevator and went upstairs while being so worried for Arturo and his safety. Then, he arrived there. "Guys, is Mr. Byeon-"
His sentence was interrupted when he saw the aftermath of the fight.
The fight was destructive, with broken furniture and shells of bullets scattered around the office. Michizou and some of his men were on the floor, exhausted and defeated, with Michizou gasping for air after being dropped by Arturo's shadows. The student himself dusted off his hands. "There, this teaches you guys a lesson for messing with the wrong tao."
Kunikida then got up alongside the other Agency members who were formerly trapped in the attack.
"He did it…" Junichiro commented.
"So amazing!" Kenji was more amazed than stunned, for the second time.
"Can't believe this…" Kunikida couldn't process what had happened and how this Filipino Korean just handled the attack by the Black Lizard and his gang like it was a normal Tuesday.
"What did I miss…?" Atsushi asked while being stunned by what had happened.
