Chapter 39 - Chapter 29: Am I the Villain?

Previously on SEVEN Rings of Hell... We have met Fujiro the previous Gravity swordsman, and the only man in human history to have defeated Bill himself, now he's a scared hero from the time spent in hell as a grim reaper, now faced with Kimura the embodiment of his past, he refuses to accept it. He drew his sword ready to end Kimura, but Kimura now stands up to the plate ready to fight Fujiro... Will he win? Let's see...

{It returns to the staredown of the past and present Gravity swordsmen}

Fujiro: [I Can't lose here!! I am...]

Kimura: [This is all up to me I have to prove I am...]

{Both Kimura and Fujiro exclaim}

Both: [The Final Holder!!]

{As they clash their intensity reverbs throughout the realm}

{It shows Kimura's right hand instantly crack from the sheer force of the exchange}

Kimura: [F#ck!! That hurt!!] (But he brushes it off and keeps on the offensive)

Fujiro: [Your expression told me everything, you can't handle my strength further proves your... Unworthy!!] (As he starts easily dodging Kimura's blows) Your swings are desperate. Your so green!!

{Fujiro disrespects all the training Kimura has done so far}

Fujiro: If you think you can fight Bill... Forget it. You could never beat him even if you train 100 years... I'm the only man that can!!

{As he says this he absolutely dismantles Kimura's attacks blocking, parrying , countering everything Kimura tries, showing us Kimura's inexperience and flaws}

Kimura: [No... It's not true... My hard work isn't nothing!! I remember...] (As it shows Kimura's training) [The true meaning of an powerful blow isn't about the force you put but the heart behind It!!] (As he clinches his fists and the flow of his efforts and heart flood through them, as the gravity aura intensifies sparking light purple with red)

{Now Kimura throws a right straight that forces Fujiro to block it. And the power behind that blow forced Fujiro back}

Fujiro: [What the hell was that?! Its power is unreal!! Itadori... What have you been teaching him?!] {As his calm expression fades as his slicked back hair starts to come undone) Okay Kid... Give me your best shot!!

{He bellows the words, filled with conviction and insanity}

Kimura: (closes his eyes and smiles) Then let's dance!! (As he opens them and their burning with white hot conviction and intensity)

{As Kimura's tight stance turns upright the red turns to blue in the light purple aura}

Kimura: [Zero grav: Feather step!!] (As Kimura bounces up and down his speed increases until)

{He vanishes before us and appears behind Fujiro}

Kimura: [Remember everything Sendou taught me! Overwhelm them with quick compact jabs!! Aim to make their right eye swell up and remove their depth of perception!]

{As Kimura follows this advice to the tee as he rains down 100's Jabs faster than the eye can see but...}

Fujiro: [I see what your trying to do... I won't let you take my one good eye!!] (As the intensity behind his one good eye starts spiraling in a darker and darker pattern, as he looks at Kimura's jabs it's like he can see each and every single punch coming, and he dodges moving in closer and closer he clinches his sword tightly as he unsheaths it) [Gravito Purple: Silent Night!!] (As he dashes in and slashes Kimura's throat, silencing him)

Kimura: (hutches over grabbing his throat struggling to breath as so much blood flows out of it) N... N-o... It... Ca-nt... End like... This... (As Kimura struggles to even say those words he sees his whole life flash by his eyes, his wasted time, his struggles and his triumphs) [My story... Doesn't end here!!]

{As Kuma's healing was activated from Kimura's sheer willpower to not lose}

Fujiro: What the... (He is flabbergasted at what he's witnessing) [He can use Kuma's healing? Even I wasn't able to use that ability... It can only be achieved through unbreakable willpower... What is this kid!!] (As his hair unravels more and more, his demeanor becomes more and more desperate) I can't... I can't accept it. [I'm not inferior to some mortal!!] (As he closes his one good eye and let's the chaos with his white take control) {As Fujiro's aura sky rockets with dark purple almost black spiraling aura}

Kimura: Wow... [He truly has gone beyond the point of no return... I'm gonna have to prey the right to be the holder from his cold dead hands!!] (As Kimura matches him ready to go again)

{As their aura's contrast more and more as Fujiro's decends into the darkness is prominent... Fujiro has lost himself to the chaos... The delusion he's a hero... But he's turned into something darker...}

Fujiro: [I will win... No matter what it takes!! I will KILL YOU!!!] (All on Fujiro's mind now is to win at all costs... Even if he breaks his own morals of not taking an innocent life)

Kimura: [I have to find a way to bring him into the light... There's gotta be a way to save him!!] (Truly noble words spoken by Kimura) {As they ingage in battle yet again, Fujiro's slashes carrying pure malice and anger and his feeling of isolation,while Kimura's strikes are full if hope as their guided by everyone that believes in him. Two completely contrasting sides of the spectrum}

{And as they clash even continuously Kimura begins to run out of gas, he starts badly getting struck by Fujiro's blows until...}

Kimura: Ngh! (As it shows all across his body cuts and bruises, Kimura's knuckles are badly swollen he can barely clinch them anymore from the constant clashes) [ I can't close my fists anymore... My arms feel like lead... mom, Sendou, Itadori, Onaraka, Tokito... What am I supposed to do? He won't listen to me... And I can't fight him anymore...] (As he desperately tries to lift his arms but he can't)

{As he sees the spirits of those he loves most push him forward he gathers his strength}

Fujiro: (also tired from the constant exchange) [Finally I will finally be able to Kill this mortal!!] (But Fujiro's good eye sees a vision Infront of him as he remembers flashes from his battle with Bill) No... [That past isn't me anymore... I'll always be the hero! No matter what... I was the one that saved them, I cannot... I cannot let that go... This element... Being hero because of it, it's all I know it's all I am... If I don't wield this element I would be nothing!!] (He reveals his dark justification for his battle with Kimura, clearly showing that Fujiro has pain that never got to heal) [All those lives I've taken... All those innocent souls I had to take with my own hands... This element... This symbol... It's all I have!!] (His eyes turn more and more deranged as he's a hust of the hero he once was...)

Kimura: [I have to... Keep fighting!!] (As he gets his arms up and releases his aura again) [Gravity heaven boulder: Earth's core!!] (As he musters up his strength into his fist filling them with heavy gravity conviction of everyone behind pushing his fists and legs forward)

{They clash yet again}

Fujiro: I'm gonna Kill you!! (A powerful outburst of rage) I'm the final holder not you! I'll NEVER SURRENDER TO THE LIKES OF YOU!! (As he begins overpowering Kimura with vicious wide slashes having full intent on Killing Kimura)

{As Fujiro's good eye shows the flashes of the battle with bill, but he sees Kimura in his position and he's Bill}

Fujiro: [I don't care if I'm becoming like him! I won't let him stay breathing!! You die by my hands!!] (As that is a direct line Bill has said)

{As the battle continues it's almost like a rein action of the events of Bill Vs Fujiro}

Kimura: (badly beaten, legs shaking his knuckle are dark purple in bruising and his body can't take anymore punishment) [Mom... Pls... Save me!! I can't... Fight anymore] (as he almost crumbles to the floor, but the spirit of his late mother speaks to him)

Andrea: [I know it Gets tough, and this burden feels heavy, but just look at what you've survived already. I know you can do this cub. I believe in you!!] (As he picks himself up and Kimura feeling the embrace of her hug give him one final push)

{Fujiro's good eye catches the spirit of Andrea, and for the first time in 100 years he sees her, the whole reason he fought for right in the first place}

Fujiro: [Lil sis (but Fujiro says it in Japanese) I... I (as he realizes just how terrible he's been) I'm so sorry... I'm intentionally hurting your child... Can you] (As internally he breaks down)

Andrea: [Onii Chan, it's okay... I Know you've been through a lot but you don't have to hold on so tightly to that anymore.] (As she points to Fujiro's busted up hands tightly gripped around his sword) [Just let it go... Be in peace, you've paid your debt to mankind. It's time you rest in peace...] (Her warm comforting words cut deeply into Fujiro's mind, as he hesitates to release)

Fujiro: [No... This is all I have, I lost you, and everyone else... I'm not losing this too!!]

Andrea: [No, you still have me, but you can only see me if you release that blade , those shackles of your past, leave them and be with us.] (As she touches his hand loosening his grip on it)

Fujiro: [I don't know what I did to deserve such an amazing sister like you. But I don't deserve to go up with you for what I've done... I need to redeem myself.]

Andrea: [Everyone deserves a second chance, to write their wrong, and yours is with Kimura, and the best way to fix this is you guiding him on his path to greatness, sharing the experience you have with him , make him into the man we all know he can become. Then your debt will be settled.]

{As through all this Kimura was barely standing struggling to move}

Fujiro: Kimura... (As he walks to him, gets on his hands and knees) I apologize (saying in Japanese) I shouldn't have done this to you, your a powerful young kid all you need is polish, which I can help with... And I Fujiro Takashi resign as the gravity swordsman, and accept you as the final wielder!! (As he says this his spirit Infuses into Kimura, Fujiro now watches over him now)

{As it fades to white and Kimura awakes outside the realm}

Kimura: Finally I'm back!!

Itadori: Took you long enough. So were you successful?

Kimura: Yeah, I finally got through to him, he saw the light and joined forces with me. (As it shows Fujiro's figure behind Kimura)

Itadori: That's exactly what we wanted. Let's call that a day, no sparing to save your energy for Tomorrow, because believe me your going to need it...

Kimura: I see...

{As it cuts to Kimura sleeping}

Kimura: No... No... (As it shows a vision of a dark figure loaming over Kimura laying it's claws into Kimura's chest)

???: Turn back while you still can... Mortal!!

{As this forces Kimura awake}

Kimura: Ahh! [Why can't I get a good night's sleep! But... What it's going on with me...] (As this ominous warning still loams in the air...)

We will see what's next for Kimura in...

The next chapter!!
