Kuroninja Gold Episode 11

Episode 11: Return of Yajin Niroku


In the Shadow Dimension, Yajin Niroku was looking for Ikustan. Ikustan had suddenly disappeared, so Yajin Niroku went looking for her. Yajin Niroku then ran into the battlefield near the Shadōkyō Spire.

Also outside the Spire was Iroyas, the Ice Ninja of Despair. Iroyas was searching the field for anything interesting left behind. She then came across a half-eaten barbecue skewer. Iroyas picked it up, as it began to freeze. Iroyas then realized who it was. Ikustan was present during the battle, but then disappeared.

Suddenly, Yajin Niroku charged at Iroyas with a sword. Iroyas blocked the attack with her chain dart.
"Where...is...Ikustan?" Yajin Niroku said.
"I'm also looking for her too," Iroyas said.
"Wait a minute..." Yajin Niroku said. "Who are you?"
"I'm Iroyas," Iroyas said. "Ice Ninja of Despair."

Yajin Niroku was a little confused.
"Iroyas?" Yajin Niroku said. "But...Ikustan said you were dead..."
"Yeah, I'm still dead..." Iroyas said.
"How are you dead and still living?" Yajin Niroku said.
"Well," Iroyas said, "I was revived by a powerful necromancer who lives here. Let me introduce you to him."


Meanwhile, in the Kuroninja-style Ninjutsu Dojo, Antonio Vega was being more aggressive than usual. Vega was practicing his ninja moves with a punching bag, rapidly striking it with his fists. The other ninja students had stopped their own training to take a look at Antonio Vega's newly-found aggression. Vega's hands slowly started burning, and Vega punched the punching bag so hard, it broke through the walls and flew out of the dojo. Antonio Vega then noticed everyone staring at him. He then saw Sayori. Not wanting anyone to look at him, Antonio Vega threw a smoke bomb on the ground. Due to Antonio Vega being a Fire Ninja, the smoke bomb burst into flames before releasing smoke.

Sayori was a little confused on why Vega had suddenly become more aggressive in his fighting. Shinnosuke Nakamura, Vega's best friend in the dojo, decided to go after Antonio Vega to see what was wrong.
Suddenly, before he could go, Haruna Nakamura, who is not related to Shinnosuke Nakamura, stopped him.
"Wait," Haruna said. "Let me handle this, Shinnosuke." Haruna then grabbed her bow and quiver of arrows, and ran out the door to find Vega.

Antonio Vega was walking alone, when suddenly, he got attacked by some Shadow Golems with pink glowsticks. Vega knew what he had to do. He attacked the Shadow Golems, trying to survive the onslaught. An arrow then struck Antonio Vega in the arm. After this happened, the Shadow Golems left. Antonio Vega easily pulled the arrow out of his arm, and for some reason, it only stung a little, and there was no cut. It didn't hurt as much as it normally would when someone gets hit by an arrow. Vega then felt weird.

At the same time, Haruna Nakamura approached Vega from behind.
"Hey Vega-kun, what's wrong?" Haruna said.
"It's nothing," Vega said, his head still turned away from Haruna.
"Really?" Haruna said. "You seemed more aggressive than usual. Maybe we can talk about it over dinner somewhere?"
"Sorry but..." Vega said as he turned around. He then saw Haruna, and as soon as they both made eye contact, Vega then paused. He felt something weird, but then stopped.
"Actually," Vega said, "Yeah, sounds like a good idea."


Meanwhile, somewhere else, Yajin Niroku and Iroyas arrived on Earth-1 through a shadow portal. Yajin Niroku began summoning Shadow Golems (without pink glowsticks) to attack everywhere, while Iroyas went into a nearby alleyway. She then picked up her cellphone.

"Yes?" Iroyas said.
"Are you sure this will work?" Necromega said. "Lord Nemesis doesn't even know who we sent to Earth-1."
"That's ok," Iroyas said. "Besides, Yajin Niroku mustn't know that the DDC is allied with the Nemesis Clan."

Kuroninja then appeared, along with Kuroninja Gold. Iroyas returned to the battlefield, to fight Kuroninja Gold.
"Who are you?" Kuroninja said.
"I am Iroyas, Ice Ninja of Despair," Iroyas said. She then pulled out her chain dart.
Kuroninja Gold and Yajin Niroku then made eye contact with each other. Kuroninja Gold pulled out the Sword of Absolute Power.
"I knew Iroyas' plan would work," Yajin Niroku said. "Once I get my hands on the Sword of Absolute Power, I'll use it to destroy the world!"

"Oh yeah?" Kuroninja said. "I was prepared for this, that's why I brought one of my students with me. You probably remember her."
Natsuki then appeared, having mastered a ninja technique of turning invisible. Natsuki was ready to face Yajin Niroku. She transformed into Voidninger and charged at Yajin Niroku.
Yajin Niroku couldn't keep up with Voidninger, since her Void Ninjutsu was more powerful than Yajin Niroku's Shadow Ninjutsu. Voidninger then summoned a black sphere of void energy, ready to finish off Yajin Niroku. However, she then began hesitating, reluctant to use the sphere on Yajin Niroku. Iroyas used this as an opportunity to attack Natsuki. She attacked Natsuki from behind with her chain dart, forcing her to untransform.

Before Kuroninja and the rest could go after them, Yajin Niroku opened a portal back to the Shadow Dimension, where he and Iroyas escaped.

Back at the Kuroninja dojo, Kuroninja asked Natsuki why she was so worried about using Voidninger's finisher. Natsuki said that she was worried that she might lose her soul again, and if that happened, then she would lose her personality, such as her passion for reading manga and baking. Natsuki didn't want that to happen again. Kuroninja told Natsuki not to worry, because her soul was already saved from the Void.


Meanwhile, Iroyas was reporting to Necromega.
"I have some information, Necromega," Iroyas said.
"What is it?" Necromega said.
"One of those ninjas on Kuroninja's team..." Iroyas said, "she has the power of the Void."
"That's bad..." Necromega said.

Necromega then went to Lord Nemesis.
"What do you want?" Lord Nemesis said.
"One of Kuroninja's students knows Void Ninjutsu," Necromega said.
"So what?" Nemesis said.
"My shadow army is completely weak against Void Ninjutsu!" Necromega said. "And without me and the help of the DDC, you won't survive the Shadow Dimension."
"What do you want?" Lord Nemesis said.
"We need help from your spy," Necromega said.

Kuroninja, meanwhile, was trying to teach Natsuki how to control her Void Ninja powers, when suddenly, there was a phone call. Kuroninja went to answer it.
"Hello?" Kuroninja said.

Kuroninja gasped when he heard what was happening in the phone. It was from Iroyas, and she was threatening to go after one of Kuroninja's girlfriends, Umika Hayami. Kuroninja rushed to the Bistrot Jurer, the French restaurant where she worked.


Meanwhile, Antonio Vega and Haruna Nakamura were having dinner there. Haruna had ordered some beef bourguignon for her and Vega to share.
"This place is great, don't you agree?" Haruna asked Vega.
"Yeah, it is..." Vega said, somewhat as if he were in a trance.

Suddenly, Yajin Niroku fired a bolt of shadow energy at the restaurant. However, before he could do any damage, Kuroninja appeared and attacked Yajin Niroku, along with Voidninger.

"So...you did arrive!" Yajin Niroku said.

Meanwhile, Haruna was leaving her table.
"Sorry about this, Vega-kun," Haruna said. "I have to use the washroom."
"Ok...." Vega mumbled.

Kuroninja and Voidninger went after Yajin Niroku. Thanks to Voidninger's abilities, Yajin Niroku was almost down. Suddenly, an arrow went flying past Voidninger as she was fighting Yajin Niroku. It then changed direction and headed straight for Voidninger. Voidninger then got hit with the flying arrow. Suddenly, she couldn't use her powers. Yajin Niroku took her down, forcing her to untransform. Now, it was all up to Kuroninja.

Kuroninja and Yajin Niroku fought with their ninja swords. Yajin Niroku then summoned a black tendril to attack Kuroninja, but Kuroninja had learned from his previous fights against Yajin Niroku. He dodged all the tendrils and kicked Yajin Niroku in the face. Kuroninja then grabbed his sword and slashed Yajin Niroku, actually dealing damage. Yajin Niroku kept on going, but then Kuroninja activated his finisher. He took Yajin Niroku down with one slash from his sword, which glowed with an aura of black light. Yajin Niroku was down, but he still had enough energy to retreat. Kuroninja then went to take care of Natsuki, and the two of them went back to the dojo.

Meanwhile, Haruna then went back to her table, where Vega was. She and Vega then left the restaurant.


Yajin Niroku had returned to the Shadow Dimension, where Iroyas was waiting.
"You failed..." Iroyas said.
"Failed?" Yajin Niroku said. "I don't care if I failed! I don't work for you, and I just wanted to look for Ikustan!"
"You may not work for us," Iroyas said, "but you still failed the DDC..."
Suddenly, Yajin Niroku saw Lord Nemesis' soldiers surrounding him, along with Lord Nemesis.
"...and the DDC doesn't take any L's." Iroyas said.
"Finally," Lord Nemesis said, "I found you, traitor!"
Yajin Niroku struggled to fight back against the Nemesis Clan soldiers, but there were too many of them.


In the dojo, Kuroninja was looking at some stuff, when Kuroninja Gold appeared.
"Hey, Kuroninja Gold." Kuroninja said. "What's up?"
"I've been thinking," Kuroninja Gold said. "You know how a water elemental was summoned from one of your toilets, and then it started attacking people later?"
"Yeah, what about it?" Kuroninja said.
"I decided to do some investigating," Kuroninja Gold said, "and I think I know why Lord Nemesis knows out every move."
"What are you saying?" Kuroninja said.
"There is a spy in your dojo," Kuroninja Gold said, "and whoever they are, it's most likely one of your students."
