As Aya arrived on the scene, she saw the two teams ready to face off against each other. On one side were the sisters Akari and Mikuri, riding in on their mech with a huge arsenal of weapons. On the other side was the stoic, mysterious sword master Youmu Konpaku. Aya flew up high, ready to interview the combatants. She first approached Akari and Mikuri. "Hey there, sisters! What do you think of your chances against Youmu?" "We'll beat her for sure, no problem!" said Mikuri with a confident smile. "Yeah, we have so many weapons and even time-stopping ability. We'll overwhelm her with our power!" added Akari, her eyes sparkling with determination. As Aya turned to interview Youmu, the sword master just stood there silently and nodded. Aya got the message and quickly flew back, waiting for the battle to begin. The two teams took their positions, Akari and Mikuri hopping off their mech and standing in front of their arsenal of weapons. Youmu drew her swords and stood ready, her elegant hakurouken swords glowing brightly in the sun. She took a deep breath and started to move, her footwork a blur as she closed in on the sisters. Mikuri quickly took control of the weapons arsenal, firing missiles and rockets at Youmu. But Youmu was too fast, dodging and cutting through them with ease. As she got closer, she swung her sword in a graceful arc, slicing through the mech and destroying it with a deafening explosion. The sisters quickly escaped from the blast, but Youmu was already on them. She swung her sword in a complex attack, overwhelming the sisters with her skill and speed. Akari tried to use her time-stopping ability, but Youmu was unaffected, her half-phantom status allowing her to move beyond time and concepts. Mikuri fired a barrage of bullets at Youmu, but the sword master just deflected them with her swords. She then jumped high into the air, her sword glowing like a cherry blossom as she prepared her ultimate technique. "Bloom!" she shouted, as she swung her sword down towards the sisters. The ground shook as a massive shockwave spread out, destroying anything in its path. Aya watched in awe as the dust settled. When it cleared, only Youmu was standing in the middle of the battlefield, her swords still glowing with an otherworldly power. Winner: Youmu Konpaku Youmu's swordsmanship and phantom abilities were too overwhelming for the sisters. She was able to dodge and deflect their attacks with ease and her ultimate technique, Bloom, was able to cut through everything in its path. In contrast, the sisters were unable to land a single hit on Youmu and were ultimately defeated.
