Shulato #23
translation by Arcadia

[OP]

{Narrator} "Shulato and his friend climbed Tenkuuju in order to save 
Vishnu, who had been turned to stone by Indrah. At the same time, Sallas 
and Mayuri sacrificed themselves to open the way to Tenkuuden by taking 
on the palace army. They won the battle with Akaranarta, the last of the 
Juuga Sanninshu, thanks to Ryouma's last desperate strike, but it cost 
Ryouma his life. Sallas told them to go to the palace's back gate before 
she died, so they put aside their grief and traveled on."

{Title} "A Storm at Tenkuuden"

{Hyuga} "What could defeat so many people at once?"

{Reiga} "I should congradulate this guy."

{Shulato} "Who did it?"

{Hyuga} "The gate!"

{Reiga} "We're at Tenkuuden!"

{Shulato} "The gate's open!"

{Shulato} "What the..."

{Hyuga} "Mayuri!"

{Shulato} "Mayuri!"

{Reiga} "Mayuri, hang on!"

{Mayuri} "Shulato... Is Sallas alright?"

{Hyuga} "Of course she is. She's wounded, but she should be here soon."

{Shulato} "Mayuri!"

{Mayuri} "We... Sallas and I have been your shadow... but this is the 
end."

{Shulato} "Mayuri! Mayuri!"

{Indrah} "They've arrived."

{Lakshu} "No! I'm going, too!"

{Shulato} "But it's dangerous! How many times do I have to tell you?"

{Lakshu} "I'm going!"
{Shulato} "What a selfish girl!"

{Reiga} "You have no idea how to talk to girls."

{Shulato} "Shut up!"

{Shulato} "Lakshu..."

{Lakshu} "Maybe I'll be in the way. Maybe I can't do anything. But I want 
to help save Lady Vishnu."

{Shulato} "Lakshu..."

{Lakshu} "Shulato, please!"

{Lakshu} "Shulato..."

{Hyuga} "Shuato, what are you doing?"

{Reiga} "Hyuga..."

{Shulato} "I'm sorry, Lakshu, but I don't want to lose anyone else. Take 
care of Lakshu, Mii."

{Reiga} "Well, that's decided."

{Hyuga} "This is the last fight."

{Reiga} "We live or die by our skill."

{Shulato} "Let's do it!"

{Shulato} "More opponents, huh?"

{Hyuga} "Wait! That's..."

{Hyuga} "Renge!"

{Shulato} "Dan!"

{Reiga} "Kuuya!"

{Shulato} "Why are they here?"

{Hyuga} "You're alive!"

{Reiga} "But that's impossible."

{Shulato} "What are-"

{Reiga} "So that's it."

{Reiga} "How dare you."

{Hyuga} "Reiga, isn't that..."

{Reiga} "Yes, it's Kuuya's Veda."

{Shulato} "So these guys are-"

{Reiga} "They're fakes."

{Reiga} "Hey you! How stupid do you think we are? If you're really Kuuya, 
there's no way you can be wearing you Shakti. You're Indrah's servants! 
Show what you really are!"

{Shulato} "So they are fakes!"

{NotKuuya} "Dappa Suikorin!"

{NotRenge} "Nahra Musouka!"

{NotDan} "Hiba Gekishinha!"

{Indrah} "They have all the powers of the dead Hachibushu."

{Gai} "Can they win?"

{Indrah} "They don't need to kill all three. They only need to kill one 
of them."

{Shulato} "Even though they're fakes, they're using the same spells!"

{Reiga} "It's just like Indrah to pull something like this."

{Shulato} "An earthquake?"

{Hyuga} "No, Shulato! Don't be distracted!"

{Hyuga} "Reiga!"

{Reiga} "No problem! I'll take care of these three. You two go ahead!"

{Hyuga} "Reiga, what are you talking about?"

{Shulato} "We'll help you!"

{Reiga} "Idiot! Don't you have to survive so you can get back to Lakshu? 
I won't lose to Indrah's underlings."

{Hyuga} "But they're Hachibushu and it's three-against-one!"

{Reiga} "I prefer not to think about that. We'll see if I can do this or 
not."

{Reiga} "Here we go."

{Shulato} "Reiga!"

{Reiga} "Hurry and go! You're wasting time!"

{Shulato} "Reiga..."

{Hyuga} "Let's go, Shulato."

{reiga} "It's up to you now."

{Shulato} "Reiga!"

{Hyuga} "Don't look back, Shulato. Leave that to him."

{Reiga} "Om Karula Sowaka!"

{Reiga} "KarulaOh Reiga!"

{Reiga} "Now we get serious! Come get me!"

[eyecatch]

{NotDan} "You fool. You fell for it, Reiga."

{Reiga} "What?"

{NotDan} "We were waiting until we got one of you alone."

"We are three in one, one in three."

{NotRenge} "Nahra Musouka!"

{Reiga} "Lucky."

{NotRenge} "Die!"

{Reiga} "Again!"

{Reiga} "Or not."

{NotKuuya} "Damn! Let go!"

{Indrah} "Reiga..."

{Reiga} "Karula Yokushiran!"

{Reiga} "Where is he?"

{Reiga} "Well done, Sir Indrah."

{Indrah} "You can't win by your own strength alone. You must turn your 
enemy's strength against them."

{Indrah} "Reiga..."

{NotDan} "Now it's my turn."

{Reiga} "How interesting."

{Shulato} "Outta the way!"

{Hyuga} "Don't bother with the soldiers. We're only after Indrah."

{Shulato} "Okay."

{Hyuga} "There it is!"

{Shulato} "Indrah!"

{Hyuga} "Where are you, Indrah?"

{Shulato} "You can't run away!"

{Indrah} "I'm not running away."

{Hyuga} "Indrah!"

{Indrah} "So you survived, Shulato. And you, Hyuga. You've gotten 
stronger."

{Hyuga} "Indrah..."

{Indrah} "Is that all? You'll need more than that."

{Indrah} "You've gotten much stronger, everyone."

{Dan} "We did it! We did it! He finally recognized us!"

{Reiga} "But it took all six of us to do it."

{Dan} "Who cares? It's still great!"

{Renge} "Please tell us. Why did you risk yourself just to protect a 
single butterfly?"

{Indrah} "All life, even that of a little butterfly, is precious. The 
plants, the animals, the people- I love all of Tenkuukai. I'd gladly give 
my life to protect it."

{Hyuga} "That kind-hearted Indrah is no more! You're not him!"

{Indrah} "Past or present, I am me."

{Hyuga} "Then why did you betray Lady Vishnu? Why are you trying to 
destroy Tenkuukai?"

{Indrah} "I simply realized the duty I'd held for 10,000 years."

{Hyuga} "Black Sohma!"

{Shulato} "But Hyuga, if he has black Sohma-"

{Hyuga} "Indrah, you can't be-"

{Indrah} "I am Raitei Indrah, of the Asura Juuniratei."

{Indrah} "I must follow my duty."

{Indrah} "The war will begin again. The Idoukyuu is coming, and the Asura 
gods with it. After 10,000 years, my duty will be fulfilled."

{Shulato} "Is that why you turned Vishnu to stone?"

{Indrah} "Without Vishnu, there will be nothing to stop the Asura army. 
That's why we made the Hachibushu fight among themselves."

{Hyuga} "So you forced my to kill Renge!"

{Shulato} "And you made Reiga kill Kuuya and me kill Dan!"

{Indrah} "With half of you gone, you won't be a problem."

{Shulato} "Damn!"

{Reiga} "Well do{Hyuga} "I'll kill you for the sake of our friends who 
believed in you!"

{Indrah} "Can you do it?"

{Indrah} "Come on, can't you do it?"

{Reiga} "This is the end."

{NotRenge} "Reiga, no!"

{NotKuuya} "You still okay, Reiga?"

{NotDan} "Hang in there, Reiga."

{Reiga} "How dare you use my emotions against me."

{NotRenge} "You look tired, Reiga."

{NotKuuya} "Now you can rest forever."

{NotDan} "You don't want Shulato and Hyuga to die, do you?"

{Reiga} "Shut up! You fakes have no right to talk like Hachibushu!"

{NotKuuya} "We'll see about that!"

{Reiga} "It's not over yet. I won't lose to you, not to Indrah's puppets! 
See the great power of KarulaOh Reiga!"

{Reiga} "Karula Kayokujin!"

{Reiga} "Not here's the real thing!"

{NotDan} "What?"

{Reiga} "Damn you, Indrah."

{Reiga} "Looks like I can't. How pathetic. Shulato, Hyuga, get Indrah for 
me. I'm stuck here."

{Hyuga} "Get your Shakti, quick!"
{Shulato} "Right!"

{Shulato} "Om Shura Sowaka!"

{Hyuga} "Om Ten Sowaka!"

{Shulato} "ShuraOh Shulato!"

{Hyuga} "TenOh Hyuga!"

{Shulato} "That won't work now that we've got our Shaktis!"

{Indrah} "Nothing has changed."

{Shulato} "What?"

{Shulato} "Here I come, Indrah!"

[ED]

{Shulato} "Hyuga and I have reached Indrah. Indrah! For Lady Vishnu and 
for peace in Tenkuukai, I will defeat you! But Indrah's power was greater 
than we expected, and a dark shadow of duty looms behind him. Next on 
Shulato: 'Farewell, Raitei Indrah'. Om Shura Sowaka!"
