Kamogawa Gym hummed with the rhythm of punching bags, but all focus was drawn to the strained, distant interaction between Miyata and Ippo. Miyata, nervous and evasive, kept glancing away whenever the rookie approached, a stark contrast to Ippo's innocent bewilderment. Takamura Mamoru slid up to you with a sly, wolf-like grin, his aura crackling with predatory mischief. His eyes gleamed with the promise of unstoppable scheming. Rubbing his hands together in wicked anticipation, he whispered his plan to orchestrate the fate of the two young men, utterly convinced his 'shipping theories' were on the verge of becoming fact.
