Chapter 137 - Baki's Story - R & M: Covered in White

A portal opens up in a dimension covered above in white. And under, an endless multitude of water.

Urilia walks through with Flow, Shuna, Ambrose, Roman and a grand multitude of Ministers.

Flow stands directly by her left. Shuna, directly by his left.

Ambrose stands directly by her right.

Roman, directly by his right.

Urilia looks around and when she centers her face, she opens her mouth in subtle shock. (As if to say she expects what she sees)

What she sees: a grand multitude of Fighters. Led by Turner and Avalon.

A thousand on both sides.

"You didn't come with more retainers?" Urilia asks with her arms lifted up (hands facing up) and with a smile.

She brings them down.

"What use is there?" Turner responds with his up as well (hands facing up), with a smile.

He brings them down.

"You're outnumbered." - Urilia.

"I can see that. But does it matter?" - Turner.

She raises her hands (them facing him) and says with her head down (to the right) and eyes, closed...

"Oh. Whatever." She raises her head after and brings down her hands.

Turner blinks with a smile and three fighters (2 men, 1 woman) sprout from the water. (The two, by his right. The woman, by Avalon's left)

The Ministers and Urilia are unphased.

"You Requiems are funny." Flow utters with a smile, bringing his right hand (facing up) and shifting it to the right.

Avalon gives him a left thumbs up.

Urilia, Flow, Shuna and some of the Ministers look.

He brings down his hand and they center their gaze.

"And what might their names be?" Ambrose asks while waving his right hand (facing up) at them.

"Oh. My bad. Just created them. Let me ask." Turner says and looks to his left.

"Babygirl?" He calls.

"Please tell us...your name." He requests.

"Sedawa Requiem." She replies.

He looks to them and asks...

"You heard her?"

He sharply looks to the right, stern eyes and says...

"Now men!"

"Axe Requiem." The one directly by his right declares.

"That's bad. Mhmm." Turner says while signalling the next. Urilia and Flow hold a laugh. (She does it with her right hand against her mouth)

"Limit Requiem." He declares.

"So you'll be at your limit today? God!" Turner says. Urilia, her boys and some of the Ministers. Together with a fraction of the Requiems, hold a chuckle.

They hold for a bit longer and burst.

Limit becomes embarrassed.

While Turner waves his head in disappointment. Facing the water and holding his waist. He also taps his left foot against it.

The laughters soon die and Urilia faces her foe.

She raises her arms (palms facing down)

"What are you doing?" - Turner.

"Sip into the future and check for me." She requests and he smirks.

Right then he engages the ISM and it releases aura. He becomes shocked and undoes them. Then looks at her with a smile.

"What did you see?" - Urilia.

"What you're about to do?" - Turner.

They both hold mischievous smiles.

Next thing, she breathes in with her eyes, closed.

She begins to feel the vast earth underneath her and her men.

It vibrates. The place shakes.

The Ministers and Requiems except their heads, are uneased.

She opens her eyes and observes.

That moment, the vibrations intensify.

She raises her arms above her head and a massive expanse of land erupts.

An Island.

She spreads her arms and two mountains spread out from the one already existing.

She brings down her arms with a smile and points to the Island from her right, with her right hand, saying...

"We will call it... "The Island of the Ministers!"

Her men except the leaders begin to celebrate and she folds her arms in pride.

She faces the Requiems.

"Ah, bravo! Bravo!" Turner says while clapping. He notices his men not clapping with the right shift of his eyes and orders them with a full body turn, head down, elbows back...

"Clap damnit!"

They become startled and clap. (The Leaders don't)

He faces her.

"Allow me to make a copy?" - Turner.

"Why not?" - Urilia.

He engages his ISM and releases aura.

The aura goes through, hits the Island and returns.

It passes the Requiems and settles behind.

Right there and then, an Island, replica to the Ministers' erupts.

The Requiems chant.

"Creation of all Things. A Yuusuke move. But you needn't have to do it with your ISM." - Urilia.

"Just wanted to show off." Turner responds, his eyes release aura and a bridge erupts from the water, connecting the Islands.

"Call my Island. The Land of the Requiems. And this bridge... U _ T. (U and T)" - Turner.

"And what does that mean?" - Urilia.

"Simply. Urilia and Turner." He declares.

"Mmm. Wow." - Urilia.

"Mhmm." - Turner.

|Belt Empire|

"9:59pm"

The day: not too bad. The people seem gloomy. But that won't stop the day from going on.

|Okowa Town|

On the streets, people talk...

"Something feels off." - Man.

"Riiiight." - Man II.

"Like a veil is been casted unto us." - Woman I.

A group of male and female slaves in chains are flogged and ordered by a man with the stretch of his right index: to continue working in a major plantation.

Round the place: multiple armed guards.

|RobYou Plantation|

A teenage boy, outside a vegetables and ingredients shop: watches, with his face to his left.

In his left hand, a knife. In his right, some veggies. In between his legs, a clean basket. Filled with the pieces of what he had already cut.

He faces front and tears roll down his cheeks.

"God save us." He prays in his heart.

Kelun is seated in the midst of wealthy boys like him. Seated around a round table in a rich man open space, inside the walls of a beautiful Bungalow. (In front of the main door to the house, five of them stay)

They chatter and cackle...

"Kelun, you promised us!" One of the boys says while lightly pushing Kelun's right shoulder with his left knuckle.

He laughs while looking down at the table. (Right hand above the left, on it) And asks while looking to his right with denial eyes...

"Did I?"

The boys burst into wealthy laughter.

Kelun chuckles and looks onto them with pride.

You could just smell the perfume from over here!

A Television projection opens up before them.

They look.

In it, a female newscaster at the scene of the massacre of the previous night, reports with a mic in her right hand...

"Who is it that made this horrible scene come to be?"

Kelun smiles.

"Just this morning, we received a report on this incident. I ask again, who could have done this!?"

She asks and gives the mic to a woman by her right.

The woman puts her mouth over it and speaks with tears running down...

"It was just the previous night, this Town was flourishing. Verily at it's peak. Then suddenly, we all woke up to this! No one knows who did it! No one knows how it came to be! But oh God!" She says and smashes her knees on the ground.

Then hits her right clenched palm (twice) on the ground.

Kelun is pleased.

Around the Town, people mourn.

While others, say...

"I told 'em so! Not to challenge a Noble! They did, now look what happened!" - Man.

"Foolish people!" - Woman.

"Bro! You did this!?" The boy by Kelun's right, asks.

Kelun looks to him and replies while subtly waving his face...

"No, no."

Then faces forward.

The people tremble in fear.

Across the Empires, Nations and Islands.

The Nobles are pleased.
