Irritated/Curious.
Gun is irritated that he was suddenly ordered to capture you, but the fact that you defeated Goo Kim makes him curious to find out how strong you are. He hopes that you will not cooperate, so that he will be forced to use force.
.
Yuji scratched the back of his neck in annoyance as he saw the status of the man in front of him. It irritated him enough to know that even after threatening the one who was constantly trying to capture him, the amount of people attacking him only increased.
And from the looks of it, they ended up sending someone as strong as him, which made it all the more problematic. He hoped to have a peaceful stay in Korea, since he would be returning to Japan in a few months, but the universe didn't seem to want to leave him alone.
"I think you already know why I am here. I don't need to waste my time explaining it to you."
To top it off, the man appeared to be a Kure, considering the black sclera of his eyes. A bit strange, since he does not carry his clan name in his status. Maybe the system took into account only the birth name? It was something to think about, but Yuji would leave that for later.
"And to think they would send someone like that to capture me..." Yuji commented dismissively.
Knowing that getting out of that situation peacefully was not an option, he would at least enjoy the moment, after all, he was in the country to train anyway, although he wanted to enjoy his last months of travel in a peaceful way.
"That old man on the phone thinks so low of me? What a joke."
This seemed to irritate Gun, who frowned, pulled out a cigarette and quickly lit it.
"Brave words for someone who is about to have all the teeth in his mouth pulled out."
Yuji raised an eyebrow at this, a small smile appearing on his lips as he began to move his shoulders to relieve the tension.
"Words are useless coming from people who cannot keep them."
Boom!
Raising his arms, Yuji blocked a sudden punch, his body being pushed back by the power of the attack.
"You're already losing your fun-Gah!"
About to speak, Gun was suddenly interrupted when a kick landed in his stomach with enough force to make him choke, his brow furrowing as he turned his attention to the boy in front of him.
"I thought we were going to tease each other some more before I was forced to beat the crap out of you." Yuji cracked a mocking smile.
Gun was irritated. From the looks of it, the boy in front of him would be more trouble than anticipated, and he could only curse his boss for it. Fortunately, he had been out of a fight for some time.
Removing his glasses and placing them inside his pants pocket, Gun cracked a fierce smile, the white irises of his eyes glowing for a single moment.
...then he would take advantage of that.
Sweeping the distance between the two, Gun attacked the boy's ribs with a punch, Yuji blocking with relative ease and countering with an elbow. Seeing the elbow approaching, Gun threw his torso backwards to escape the counterattack.
"!"
But surprising him, the moment he was able to dodge, Yuji grabbed his shirt and swept him off his feet, using his own weight combined with the man's weight to knock him to the ground.
'Jujitsu?!'
The moment Gun's back hit the ground, he ignored the pain coursing through his spine to kick Yuji away, immediately standing up only to be forced to fend off a flurry of attacks that came from every possible direction.
'What is that?! What style is that?' Gun was shocked. As he struggled to defend himself as best he could, he couldn't help but wonder about the style of the boy who seemed to be no older than him.
It was clear to him that every punch and kick delivered against his body was precisely calculated to cause as much damage as possible, which he was already beginning to feel with only 20 seconds on the defensive.
The fighter in front of him was no ordinary person, of that he was sure.
'But it matters little.'
Opening a huge smile, Gun let himself be hit by a punch to the face, only to counter with a straight kick, his foot hitting Yuji's face hard enough to throw him away.
'That just makes it more fun!'
Stopping his momentum with his feet, Yuji grabbed his nose as he felt something moist go down his nostrils, his forehead frowning in annoyance.
As always, things would not be so simple. He hoped that he could defeat the man in front of him by overwhelming him with consecutive attacks, but from what it seemed, he was not someone so simple.
With a sigh, Yuji wiped the blood from his nose and turned his attention back to Gun.
At the end of the day, the man in front of him was still a Kure. Facing any of them would never be simple.
"!"
Investing, Gun launched a kick toward Yuji, the boy seeing this and raising his defense, his eyes following the attack as he prepared to block it.
'Got it.' Gun's smile widened.
Just as the kick was about to connect with Yuji's defense, the boy's eyes widened in surprise when Gun changed the trajectory of the attack, his foot, instead of hitting him horizontally, changing to a vertical attack.
Boom!
"..."
"Hey, that was a great Brazilian kick."
Shock ran across Gun's face as he noticed his ankle being held by Yuji, who exhibited no sign of being hit.
"But it's a shame that you tried to use it precisely against me."
Punching Yuji's face to get rid of the grip, Gun had his fist easily parried by the teenager, who looked on with a mocking smile.
"But it's been a while since I got over that technique."
Kicking Gun's only supporting foot, the man had no way to stay on his feet, inevitably falling as Yuji kept a grip on his ankle, his brow furrowing as he noticed the boy stepping forward intending to take advantage of his body in mid-air to attack him.
Gun had to admit, the boy was strong.
Spinning his body in the air, his sudden rotation freed him from Yuji's hands, Gun immediately taking advantage of his body's acceleration to kick, which made his attack even more powerful.
'That's new.' Raising his defense fast enough to block the kick to his face, Yuji found himself pushed away, his eyes narrowing as he looked down at his arm to see it beginning to swell. 'I was hoping to find someone who would fight like Senju, but I didn't think that person would be this strong.'
Getting up in an instant, Gun narrowed his eyes as he saw that Yuji was able to block his attack. Not many people were able to survive one of his spinning kicks, even more so when his kick carried full force.
Realizing that the kick caused nothing more than damage to his muscles, Yuji turned his attention to Gun with a raised eyebrow.
"!"
Surprising Gun, Yuji disappeared in front of his eyes in a flash, his instincts screaming for him to move, which he obeyed, rolling forward to dodge a punch that hit the air hard enough to set off a weak draft.
'What speed is that?!'
About to retreat, Gun was shocked when Yuji swept the distance between the two in an instant and grabbed his neck, knocking him backwards onto the ground and pressing his head against the concrete.
'Where did that force come from?' Gun tried to free himself from the grip, but even though he strained to try to push Yuji's fingers away from his neck, the boy didn't even move in the face of his attempts.
"You are strong." He listened, his mind wavering as the lack of oxygen began to affect him. "But I can't waste much time on that. We'll fight again another time, I promise not to appeal to that next time."
Gun didn't understand what the boy meant, more concerned with trying to find a way to pull air into his lungs.
"That's enough!"
Raising his head when a voice sounded from his back, Yuji turned to see a middle-aged man standing a few meters away from him.
'Observe.'

Frustrated/Disappointed/Curious.
Seeing Gun being easily contained by you, Choi feels frustrated and disappointed, but seeing how you, a stranger, were easily able to handle someone of Gun's caliber, piques his curiosity to meet you.

'That one is problematic.'
"Let him go, and let's talk."
