Flame of Recca, Vol. 05

Recca Hanabishi can summon fire at will, yet he is restless for more. When a mysterious older woman enters his life, he cannot tell whether she is an ally or a threat, or what she is after. His ambition centers on the Flame of the Eight Dragons, a legendary power that would make him nearly unbeatable, but such strength comes with responsibilities he has yet to prove he can carry. Meanwhile, his friends are pulled into the deadly Urabutosatsujin contest, where their first opponent is Team Ku, a group of feared assassins. If they lose, a companion's life is at stake. This volume puts the young ninja's temper and skill to the test.
