The chapter also indicates that Kazutora had violent inclinations, which drove him to assault and murder Shinichiro.

The chapter continued with Takemichi pleading with Mikey to cease holding the Dark Impulses within. Mikey was terrified because if he allowed his aggressive urges to take control, he may badly damage his buddy. Takemichi reassured Manjiro that everything would be OK, so the blonde listened and let the Dark Impulses govern his body.
