It is the stated desire of the users of Satsujin-ken, the Killing Fist; namely Yami and its disciple group Yomi; to destroy (read: KILL) all practitioners of Katsujin-ken, the Saving Fist; namely Ryouzanpaku and their disciple, Kenichi.
Yes, this is another suggestion for a History's Strongest Disciple Kenichi cross, but a little more serious.
During the introduction arc for Boris Ivanov, members of Yomi went around parts of Japan, including Tokyo, challenging and decimating Dojos. When all the members met up, they complained about the weakness of said schools.
Since Ranma has shown a general aversion to killing his opponents, even ones trying to kill him, I think it is safe to have him fall on the side of the Katsujin-ken schools, along with the Tendo Dojo.
What if one of the members had some trouble?
Like, say, they killed (or even just severely injured) Akane Tendo during their challenge of the Tendo Dojo? And Ranma arrived just a little too late?
Of course, Ranma would have to get involved in the conflict, one way or the other. But where normally one might have him and the rest of the NWC show up, throwing energy blasts and basically being super-Ranma from the end of the series, here's where this version becomes a little darker:
Who says that all the members of the Ranma cast would fall on his side?
I can easily see the Amazons as if not members of Yami, at least supporters of it.
I also don't think it's out of the realm of possibility that Ryoga decides to join them (though this would only work if Akane survived, and they managed to convince him that it was right to do that to an opponent).
However, to make things more believable, the stories have to join before any of the major ki techniques are introduced. I'll allow the Bakusai Tenketsu and the Katchuu Tenshin Amaguriken, because we've seen techniques in HSDK that are very close to those. I might allow in the Hiryuu Shoten Ha, since the Soul of Ice part might fit well with the Sei- style principles.
However, if the stories join too soon, the Amazons might not teach it to Ranma.
And before anyone harps on about how "if the Amazons supported Yami, wouldn't they have gotten rid of Ranma earlier," it's for the same reason the first two Yami masters tried to capture Kenichi, and why Luke Skywalker was brought before the Emperor, and not killed.
I think this could work. Anyone else?
