Ataru could see the swordsman take off, he seemed to be speed based a similar style to Ataru's. He could keep up with his movements and match them, he just had to wait for his chance to strike. Activate your heat dial moron!. Ataru had purposely been stalling using it he had a better idea, than just using it blindly like his foolish voice advised. After all he was a dial master, matching the swordsman speed in half the time thanks to the aid of his jet dials first charge. Ataru now moving at the same speed as the swordsman clashed their strikes a flurry of motions. To some they would be invisible the only audible thing being the horrendous sound of metal moving at such speed and strength. Ataru's assumption had been correct he had done something specific in that one strike, he couldn't do it as easily while moving this fast. His sword strength was on par with his at this point Ataru let him think they had fallen into a rhythm. He was parrying per usual but this time he'd activate his heat dial while striking again simultaneously. His titanium blade would eat through the man's blade going straight into his metallic body. He managed to kick Ataru off before he got too deep, well that is to say deep if you think of cutting into metal not flesh. There was a 3 inch cut into his right shoulder, as he ate his sword a man with a sword plunged out of the darkness of the cave at Ataru. He manged to slice a 1 inch wound on Ataru's side, Ataru in his surpise slashed through the man's left leg. Luckily the heat dial burned his flesh so he wouldn't die from bleeding out but he passed out from the pain.
Looking back at the swordsmen Ataru saw him run into what he had before thought was a hill. As he got closer he noticed that it was actually a pile of metal and now the swordsman was 8 ft tall with bulging metal muscles. Man I remember when swordsman just fought with swords. I guess this is the only way to take the shortcut that conflict creates. My heart will always be stronger than some gimmick like this. Also I need to invest in a stronger weapon.He knew his heat dial was still going that was enough to cut through a metal like this. The swordsmen definitely acknowledged that as he suddenly steamed into a more streamlined version as Ataru closed the distance to strike him down. Among the steam it was hard to make out where the swordsmen was. He activated his haki on left hand using it as a shield as he advanced through the mist. Ataru saw as a blur came at his rear, this man attacked like a would be assassin. Blocking with his left hand activating his axe blade dial mixed with his haki he broke his blade. With his other swing he used slicer cutting through half of the man's body. He fell down on the ground steaming coughing at the same time. Ataru would walk up to his body switching to his sword left hand while putting his right gauntlet over the mans head. He would activate his reject dial at T2 power for (a total of T4 damage internally to both me and him.)"This is nothing personal but I need you to stay down, Remember one thing dials don't discriminate, come to my shop sometime."As the shock hit both of them Ataru voice would be wracked with pain. The swordsman passed out on the ground, the burns didn't look fatal. Ataru knew the man would live but it'd be a while before he was able to fight again.
It felt weird leaving someone alive but Ataru knew this was the only way he'd be able to sleep a little bit better. Walking out of the base he would move towards Knuckles position. The city's underground would hear of the Minstrel that was his name on the streets he had already paid a couple visits. Hopefully this would help increase his sales, sadly people needed to see power to buy it. He hated doing business this way but ultimately people would chalk it up to being a swordsman he smirked underneath his mask.Damn, I was looking forward to his voice.
