Zaruzaru Academy Raid

The **Zaruzaru Academy Raid** was a raid that struck Izuzunu when the Doom Brigade was demanding diamonds from the Izuzunians, which the Izuzunians fought back to protect the children inside the school of Zaruzaru Academy.

## Prelude

The Doom Brigade was really struggling to find the Diamond Valley, along with the rest of the nations around Kepkury. The Diamond Valley was a valley in which under it lay plenty of rich diamond minerals, and the Doomgaders would do anything in their power to find it first. One day, out of nowhere, on July 26, 2033, a new nation called Izuzunu discovered the Diamond Valley, and the Doom Brigade would do anything in their power to take over the Diamond Valley. So the Doomgaders came up with the plan to force the Izuzunians to hand them all the diamonds.

## The Raid

### Before Raid

The Doom Brigade, along with many neighboring nations, was fervently scouring the land around Kepkury to locate the elusive Diamond Valley, an area containing a multitude of valuable diamond deposits. However, their plans were thwarted, when a previously unknown nation, Izuzunu, discovered the Diamond Valley. The Doom Brigade's determination to seize control of the valley compelled them to devise plans to coerce the Izuzunians into handing over all the diamonds.

Following the discovery of the Diamond Valley, Izuzunu reveled in its newfound prosperity, rapidly expanding and constructing numerous buildings, including a school named Zaruzaru Academy. Edison became the school's new teacher, and various subjects were introduced, such as Math, Science, English, Archer, Combat, and Physical Education.

As Izuzunu flourished, a strange man appeared across Izu Bridge, in the pine tree forest, accompanied by a group of people, catching the attention of Eungi. However, upon closer inspection, Eungi realized they were the dreaded Doom Brigade, recognizable by their blue skin tone, yellow eyes, weapons, and kalrhinos. The Izuzunians' worst fears had come true, and they were doomed.

While enjoying some Sodizu near the bridge, Jun, Kyle, and Melanie noticed the Doom Brigade's arrival and Eungi's panic. Despite Kyle's attempts to make light of the situation by joking about barbecued ribs, Jun urged Melanie to inform the others that the Doom Brigade was approaching. Lord Piller summoned his kalruts to attack the group while commanding his squad to head towards the new school. During the chaotic encounter, Piller summoned shards toward the Izuzunians, mortifying them.

### Arrival in Zaruzaru Academy

Upon reaching the Zaruzaru Academy, Lord Piller barged in, terrifying the students and making them flee up the stairwell. Piller demanded that the Izuzunians relinquish all their diamonds, but George's mockery only fueled Piller's wrath. In a fit of anger, Piller killed one of his squad members, frightening everyone, including George. Melanie then revealed herself, catching Piller's attention, and grabbing her by the neck, lifted her into the air. Edison stepped in, defending Melanie, and challenging Lord Piller. However, this only further enraged Piller, who introduced himself as the Lord of the Doom Brigade. He charged toward Chloe, who retaliated with arrows but missed, leading Edison to come to her aid.

Jun arrived at the scene and engaged in a fierce battle with Piller. Despite his initial efforts, Piller gained the upper hand, overpowering everyone in sight, knocking out Chloe and George, and shoving Edison to the ground. Jun received a severe blow to his stomach and was catapulted into the school's wall, making him considerably weaker. However, a mysterious girl named Summer Almanfro arrived just in time to deliver a devastating blow to Piller's back, saving the Izuzunians.

In another battle, Mikey and a team of druzels found the abandoned Poxus Castle, where they confronted guards wearing full black armor. After fighting with the poxians, they decided to wait for Jun to join them before searching for the sought-after Books of Kaimog.

Finally, on top of the Zaruzaru Academy mountain, the druzels gather, pleading for mercy, while Orone points a bow at one of them. Mikey saves the life of the druzel by attacking Keneth, leading Keneth to order the Doom Brigade's retreat.

### Ending of the Raid

During this tumultuous time, a girl named Summer Almanfro emerged as an unlikely hero, and Jun, Chloe, Edison, and the rest of the Izuzunians banded together to fight against the Dooom Brigade, ultimately triumphing in the end. While engaged in conversation with Piller, Orone quickly snatched him up, and the Doom Brigade swiftly retreated. Summer then shouted out for aid to assist the injured Izuzunians.

## Aftermath

Following the conflict, the Izuzunians awoke after a five-day slumber to find that the school was undergoing reconstruction.

Within the Doom Brigade Prime Base, Piller was greatly displeased with their retreat.
