Kuroka was sitting on the branch of a tree, more precisely she was laying down on the branch. She seemed bored but the moment she saw Shirone her boredom instantly went away. But then the her lips curved into a mischievous smile. It seems that she had noticed Issei and Rias.

"Long time no see, Shirone~nya. It seems you're doing pretty well~nya."

"Kuroka..."

"The two people hiding behind the bushes, you should come out as well~nya."When she mentioned them, Issei and arias came out of the bushes. Shirone was surprised to see them. She thought she was able to sneak out, but it seems that she'd been followed.

"President, Ise-senpai, what're you both doing here?"

"Koneko you're a member of my peerage, your troubles are our troubles as well. " said Rias. It seems she was upset due to the fact that Shirone decided to act on her own and didn't trust them enough to tell them about the situation.

"Rias is right. Shirone you should've told us. Regardless of the cost we'll stand by your side."

"President, Ise-senpai..."

"Are you done with your melodrama? I didn't come here to listen to your dialogues. Shirone I've come to take away with me."

"You won't be taking Koneko anywhere!" Said Rias.

"Oh aren't you Shirone's King~nya? You've done a good job taking care of her till now, but she's coming with me~nya. So stand back and stay out of the way~nya." Saying so, Kuroka used her Youjutsu to release poison mist. Due to it's effects Rias and Shirone got paralysed as they were unable to move their bodies, the only one who remained unaffected was Issei.

"Oh, it seems you're immune to the effects of my poison mist~nya. Who are you~nya?"

"I'm Issei Hyoudou, a member of Rias's peerage."

"Oh! I've heard a lot about you~nya! You seem to be very strong~nya. Let's test out your capabilities ~nya." Saying so, Kuroka summoned magic curled on her palms and threw fireballs at Issei. Issei countered the fireballs with his own fireballs. The collision of the attacks cause the area to get covered in distance and smoke. Using the opportunity, Kuroka uses Senjutsu to erase her ki so that her presence becomes undetectable. She quickly teleported behind Issei and used her hand to hand combat skills to strike Issei at his back. Issei uses his instincts to block her attack with his palm and deliver a palm strike to her abdomen.

Just before the palm could hit her, Kuroka covered her whole body in Touki to increase her defences to the maximum. When the palm hit her in the stomach, she was sent flying a few meters as she did a backflip and landed back on her feet. Even though she was able to negate mostly of the damage done by the attack, the pain couldn't be reduced.

Kuroka again charged at Issei and engaged with him in a hand to hand combat. While covering her body with Touki, her strength also increased to the maximum. But she was quickly outmanoeuvred by Issei, because even with Touki his strength was stronger than hers. Issei kicked her on the legs and gave her a palm stroke covered in thunder to her back. Kuroka flew a few meters back but this time she crashed into a tree. She received some damage as their were slight bruises and injuries covering her body. She seemed impressed by Issei's as she quickly got back on her feet.

Magic circles appeared on her arms as she fired Ultimate class level magical attacks at Issei. Issei countered each of the attacks using his lightning magic. He then flew up to the sky and sent a bolt of thunder crashing down towards Kuroka. Kuroka summoned her Kasha, large wheels of flames and use them to counter his attack. Both attacks cancelled out each other. Both of them were impressed by each other's skills and seemed to have fun.

"You're very strong~nya! It seems I underestimated you~nya. But now playtime's over." Kuroka had a serious expression on her face, unlike her usual carefree and mischievous demeanour. She used Illusions to create several mirage copies of herself and surrounded Issei between all her copies.

She summoned about twenty copies of herself. All of them charged towards Issei at once. One of these copies was the original Kuroka, but which was one is it? Issei raised his palms as a white magic circle appears on his hands pointing to the sky. Immediately a huge blue magic circle appeared in the sky and a huge thunderbolt in the shape of an eastern dragon dragon came out of it and it was headed toward them. The Kurokas were surprised at this but didn't have enough time to escape as the lightning bolt hit them and all of them were severely damaged. Nineteen of them of them disappeared while the original Kuroka lay on the ground covered in burns and bruises. She quickly went unconscious from all the damage.

Issei senses spatial fluctuations in the surroundings and summarised that Bikuo was coming here. He quickly carried the unconscious Kuroka and the unconscious Rias and Shirone who had also gone unconscious due to the poison mist. Together with them he quickly teleported away from the place to his pocket dimension before Bikou arrived.
