It was 1 a.m., and everyone was asleep. But in Block S, one prisoner was still awake.
Prisoner: «Ehh guys, are you up for escaping?»
Another prisoner: «Why the sudden urge to escape, Toshiro?»
The prisoner laughed awkwardly and replied: «The reason I want to escape is a bit embarrassing, Takeda. I learned that a new console has been released. I want this console, but it will soon be out of stock.»
Suddenly, Kishima woke up too and politely asked: «Toshiro-san, Takeda-san, what are you talking about?»
Takeda replied with an annoyed expression: «Toshiro wants to escape just because of a console.»
Toshiro: «It's not just any console. And let me remind you that I'm a gamer who loves collecting consoles.»
Takeda sighed in frustration while Kishima laughed.
Toshiro, feeling offended, asked: «What are the girls doing?»
Takeda answered coldly: «Are you stupid, or are you doing this on purpose? Let me remind you it's 1 a.m., and at this hour, people are supposed to be asleep.»
Toshiro scratched his head in embarrassment and said: «Oops, you're right. My question was a bit stupid. But are you guys up for escaping?»
Takeda replied: «No, I don't want to escape just for a console, and let me remind you there are plenty of cameras, and ever since Isachi's escape, security has been strengthened.»
Kishima said: «No, me neither, because I want to sleep. Sorry, Toshiro-san, maybe another time.»
After Takeda and Kishima went back to sleep, Toshiro destroyed the door of his cell with a kick. Then he destroyed the cameras. Toshiro muttered: «This is easier than I thought.»
But suddenly, a patrolling guard noticed him and shouted: «Get back to your cell immediately!» After saying this, the guard pulled out a firearm from his pocket. Toshiro yawned and cleaned his right ear with his pinky finger.
The guard got angry and fired several bullets. But Toshiro dodged all the bullets and caught one between his thumb and index finger. He threw the bullet he caught toward the guard's face. The bullet flew at a speed of 200 km/h and pierced the guard's face, killing him instantly.
After that, Toshiro managed to leave Block S easily and walked down the corridor. He killed all the patrolling guards in the corridor as well. However, he forgot to destroy the cameras in the corridor.
Ishiro, in his office, saw through the surveillance cameras the massacre that Toshiro had caused.
Through the loudspeaker, Ishiro said: «All guards, special and regular, must wake up! A prisoner from Block S has escaped and has already killed 36 guards!»
Suddenly, alarm signals echoed throughout the prison. Toshiro muttered: «Shit, I've drawn attention.»
The alarms woke me up, and I left my dormitory half-asleep. I saw all the guards running toward the prison hall, so I decided to follow them. When I arrived at the hall, I saw numerous guards surrounding a man. Among them, I noticed Maku Nishi. I rushed toward Nishi and asked: «What's going on, and who is this?»
Nishi: «His name is Kuro Toshiro. He's a prisoner from Block S, and he's trying to escape.»
As soon as Nishi finished speaking, Toshiro rushed toward him and prepared to strike Nishi in the stomach. But Nishi managed to block the attack, which sent him flying against the wall. His arm was now covered in bruises.
Seeing this, I pulled out my pistol to shoot at Toshiro. But Toshiro managed to dodge the bullets and grabbed my gun. He shot me in the leg. I collapsed to the ground, screaming in pain.
The guards around him opened fire, but he skillfully dodged every shot. After evading all the bullets, he pierced the throats of all the guards who had fired at him with his fingers.
Only Nishi and I remained. Nishi assumed an aikido stance and said in a cold, determined tone: «1v1.»
Toshiro smiled with curiosity and said: «1v1 like in Street Fighter. I accept.»
Nishi: «But there's a rule you must follow.»
Toshiro's smile disappeared, and he said: «I hope this rule isn't annoying.»
Nishi: «You are forbidden to hit anyone other than me.»
Toshiro nodded and accepted the rule. After this agreement, the fight began. Toshiro, with his superhuman speed, delivered a series of powerful blows to Nishi. Nishi managed to block some attacks but received a strong hit to the stomach. The blow was so powerful that Nishi was thrown two meters away. Despite the hit, Nishi staggered back to his feet, and as soon as he was standing, he delivered a violent knee strike to Toshiro's chin, making his teeth grind under the impact. Toshiro stepped back after the knee strike and said: «Not bad.»
Toshiro looked at the clock—it was 5 a.m. Then he checked his phone and learned that only 20 units of the console remained. Seeing this, he tensed the muscles of his face and said: «Okay, we've played enough. It's time to finish this fight.»
Toshiro took off his shirt, and the two men assumed their fighting stances.
