Axel's been here quite a bit, lately.  Which, honestly, fair enough.  The other Keyblade users have been throwing around their Keyblades for a pretty long time, and despite his age, he juniors under them as far as experience smacking stuff with a magical stick goes.  He's even more reliant on other weapons than they are to make up for it, which is a real shame.  And with whatever weird stuff was going on with Xion, he really couldn't afford to keep being sloppy - he needed to sharpen his skills, and fast.

Of course, no use complaining about it.  Just means he's gotta beat some ass and grind out experience points, or whatever kids call it these days.

So, Axel's back out here for another round, summoning his Keyblade and giving it a little twirl as he props it up on his shoulder, giving a smug grin as he regards the audience.  "So, who wants some?"

"By 'some' you mean 'hair gel', right? You've clearly got way too much with a head like that." Nobody joked, smiling a wry smile behind his mask as he walked up upon his proposed opponent.

Now, why would a mercenary of all things like Nobody just be playing around in the Sunshine Stadium of all places? Well besides money being tight in the absence of jobs, this apparently was a good way to get your name out in terms of showcasing your fighting ability. Now, normally he'd be above this sort of thing and let his name do all the talking under normal circumstances; but new world, new clout. Covert jobs were alright with spreading your name-brand in the underground, among certain circles, but to really get associated with fearful power, lots of less bold folks would need a more palpable demonstration.

"Nobody, by the way. Pleasure to beat you." He knows what he said.

The match had started, and Nobody wasn't one to waste time after the bell rang. From within his pocket, the mercenary withdrew his Dimension Driver. Holding the pink and black cellular-like device aloft, he quickly inputted the activation code before placing it up against his midriff and causing a belt to slide out from it and tightly wrap around him.

"Henshin!" (Henshin: +4 STR/DEX/CON stat buff; x2 damage received; perma-death enabled)

He curled his fists at his sides while the glyphs lining the device's front screen lit up, before abruptly projecting out a bright yellow beam. Suddenly man-sized, translucent panels each bearing its own symbol, appeared lined up like dominoes before the mercenary, before he charged head first into them. On contact, each projection shattered, revealing a piece of armor now firmly attached to his form. Gauntlets, boots, armor plating, before finally the helmet as Nobody emerged, fully transformed into Mugen Rider Culturgen!

"I'm taking the advantage." He confidently announced.

Nobody reached down to his Dimension Driver, clicking the a symbol on its screen that resembled an eye. After pressing the icon, an orange and black hue spread out from Mugen Rider Culturgen's armor before abruptly bursting outwards in a field that encompassed practically the entire stadium. Bathed in its glow, the very concept of mass uncertainty and misunderstanding was harnessed and focused onto the Rider in its entirety, announced by an ambient voice separate from Nobody's own calling out:

"KAIGAN: MANDELA~!" (Mandela Aura: All parties' status-ailments, buffs, and debuffs when cast have a 50% chance to be cast on Culturgen; 2 turn duration; 3 turn cooldown)

With the prep-work out of the way, the Rider wasted no more time and rushed at his fellow Nobody head-on. In this transformed state, all of Nobody's physical abilities had been seemingly amplified as well. His endurance, his strength, and most immediately noticeable: His speed. With a flying leap, Culturgen cleared halfway across the arena like a bullet before crashing into Axel head-on: Aiming a flying side-kick at the red-head's red head. "Haaah!"
