Black and darkness ~Conveyed Feelings~

Chapter 72: The reason that I fight ~The Reason to Protect~ is the seventy-second chapter of the To Love-Ru Darkness manga series.

Summary
In a flashback, Kuro announces to a young Yami that the organization who created her is now destroyed and to not attack him. Yami tells him that all she knows is fighting. In the present, Kuro wonders aloud that maybe he was projecting himself onto Yami. The other three immediately recognize the darkness transformation, and Yami immediately begins attacking Kuro. She uses earth transformation to use hands to push him into blades coming out of wormholes. Kuro notes that her specs have skyrocketed. The force of one of Yami's attacks pushes Rito into Mea, pulling down her battle bottoms and once again inserting his face into her private region. Yami and Kuro both use their special attacks at the same time, Planet Slicer and Railgun, respectively. Kuro is left on the ground with a destroyed Hades, revealing that she must have narrowed the scope of her attack since the town is unharmed. Yami announces that this is the true form of darkness in the end. Rito runs to Yami in an attempt to make her stop, but falls down and accidentally gropes her again. Rito tries to tell Yami to stop, and Yami tells him that she is doing this to save him. She reveals that she transformed into Darkness of her own will. Yami states that she was in control this time since she had confidence. Yami begins slightly stammering, and tells Rito that he is her target, so her heart won't waver anymore. Rito points out that she has always been saying that, and asks what is different. Yami yells about how dense he is, before telling him that he is the target of her love, shocking Rito completely. Mea and Nemesis both voice their approval of Yami's confession, and Kuro announces that he had the wrong impression. With a smile on his face, he realizes she has been walking her own path for a while now. He reveals that he had a life similar to Yami's: trained when he was young, and turned into a killer. Kuro announces his mission failed, and that he will quit the assassination business, saying goodbye to her and referring to her as "Yami" instead of Golden Darkness. Yami and Rito decide to leave things how they are for now, and Mea asks Yami if it is really okay. Azenda suddenly appears and grabs Rito, saying that she will kill him herself. Yami and Mea are ready to defend him, but Nemesis tells them that Rito is invincible against females. Rito loses his footing and falls down a hill taking Azenda with him, landing in a number of provocative positions on the way down. Nemesis and Yami begin talking about how they have changed, and call Rito "interesting". Nemesis wonders to herself how Momo will react when finding out about Yami's confession. On Deviluke, Sephie and Momo are outside. Sephie asks Momo if she became bored of the party, and Momo says no. Sephie points out how absent-minded Momo seemed throughout the party, and Momo quickly denies it, and asks what Sephie anted to talk to her about alone. Sephie replies with "A secret talk. Between two girls..."
