St. Rikishi
Shark came, Yuzuki-chan came, and even Nina-san's little brother-kun and the others arrived at Serai-san's family home. This caused a sudden population increase and a significant drop in the average age.
But well, since the little brother-kun and the others came all the way from Tokyo via Osaka and Tokyo, we must appreciate their effort and treat them to a grand welcome.
So, we decided to have a big barbecue in the garden for dinner, and first, let them enjoy the quaint goemonburo bath. That said, the first bath was taken by Grandpa to wash off the sweat from his farm work, and the second group was the girls' team with Shark and Yuzuki-chan.
Then, our boys' team with Masa-kun and Yuki-kun had some free time after setting up the barbecue. I was thinking of showing them around the barn or storehouse since they might find it interesting, but then the twin brothers suddenly said they wanted to watch sumo.
(Huh, sumo over the countryside scenery and rare things??)
"Heh~, really. For kids these days, that's quite a refined hobby~" I said, impressed, and then called out to Serai-san, who was bathing far away, and got permission to enter the Shin-taku house. We then made ourselves at home in the living room.
When I turned on the TV, what started was the grand sumo often broadcast in the evening. But something seemed off.
[(chachacha~chara!) Suuupaaa~! Grand Sumo! (Dehyun… Jakii~n!)]
For some reason, before the match, there was an unnecessarily flashy eye-catch, and then the dohyo was shown.(Huh, what's that? When did it change to be like this?)
Wondering, I looked at Masa-kun and Yuki-kun, but they were already engrossed in the screen, showing no sign of being bothered by the change, as if they already knew about it. Meanwhile, the wrestlers sprinkled salt and entered the dohyo, lowering their hips and glaring at each other.
(Whoa, they're huge…! What's with those muscles!? Are they ability users…!?)
["Hakki yoooii!"]
["Nuuuuuuuuuuun…!!"]
["Muuoooooooooooh~!!"]
" "Waaa~!!" "
(Wha—, what is that…!?)
Then, for some reason, the gyoji prompted them to release their ki, and the wrestlers, who had lowered their hips and were glaring at each other, released such powerful aura power that it was clearly visible even on the TV camera.
[[(Jubaaah! Byuwa byuwa byuwa byuwa…!!)]]
(What the…! Did the government turn the wrestlers into dungeon ability users for image strategy!?)
That said, wrestlers are those who have always trained their bodies through sumo, a martial art.
Moreover, tracing its roots, sumo is a sacred ritual dedicated to the gods. The power of wrestlers who have awakened to such dungeon abilities is tremendous. The clashing of the auras from both wrestlers caused the gyoji to stagger and fall off the dohyo, and the sprinkled salt floated in the air, sparkling and shining.
(…! …! …!!)
Oh! Even Shiotaro within me is rejoicing at the brilliance of that salt….
[[Zupaaaaaan!!]]
The wrestlers, who had been facing off, collided head-on at the center of the dohyo. The impact caused the curtain hanging above to be exposed to the shockwave and flutter violently. Mmm, what power this is….
After the great collision, they grappled firmly in a yotsu position, and the wrestlers poured more spirit into it, making their auras blaze.
[Muooooohoooooo~!]
[Nuoooooooooh~!]
Then….
Above the dohyo's roof, a purple cloud began to drift solemnly, and at its center, a divine point of light appeared. As if to cheer on the wrestlers grappling below, it showered them with beautiful, rainbow-colored light….
(C-could it be, that's a singularity reaction…!!)
Let me explain. A singularity reaction is a phenomenon often seen in anime and such.
Depending on the work's content, it can connect to another world or bring down beings from a higher dimension than humans, but who would have thought it would actually happen in reality….
If so, has a god truly descended upon that dohyo, making it a sacred ground? And those permitted to stand there are true wrestlers recognized by the gods. Shouldn't they be called holy wrestlers or something!?
The fierce matches of these holy wrestlers continued….
Hugging the topknot of my heart, I tied it tightly, scattered salt, and while stomping the shiko, I couldn't just stay like that; we competed in the distant sacred dohyo. Dosukoi fantasy, that's right, only the yokozuna is a heart that no one can steal, because it's the mawashi.
….
" "Waaaaah!!" "
[[[Oooooooh…! (Clap clap clap clap…!)]]]
The holy wrestlers were evenly matched. But eventually, the west wrestler won with an uwatenage. Moved by this, the two stood up, and in the venue, along with a stir, a wave of loud applause erupted.
"Th-this is true sumo…"
"Right! It's amazing, isn't it!"
"Yeah! They're crazy strong, huh!"
Indeed, with this, it's understandable even kids would want to watch sumo. Because the holy wrestlers were just like Super Saiyans.
That said, what's frightening is the Japanese government.
Once you acquire the status and become a dungeon ability user, you can't return to your original state. The sports world is in an uproar over that issue, yet they went and awakened the sumo world's wrestlers into holy wrestlers….
It seems they intend to push forward with the total national dungeon ability user plan without any regard for appearances.
But, the awakening of the wrestlers and the descent of a god…. This is something the world won't stay silent about.
