Crossover Anime: Starting with Destroying Kengan

Page 124

Many people here know him, and some even have a deep impression of him.

You have to ask why...

The answer is that last week, Oni no Ohma represented the Nogi Group in battle, and on the night he defeated his opponent, the corporate representatives, led by Nogi Hideki, officially raised the banner of rebellion against Katahara Metsudo.

This marks the start of the Kengan Elimination Tournament!

Although she's a newcomer, she's already quite a topic of conversation.

"Next up on the defensive side is Yato Igarashi, a fighter from the [argus] group, a super genius who has recently emerged as a 'supernova' and is known as the 'Kicking Demon'!"

"Didn't they say I changed my nickname?"

As the referee introduced him, Yato turned to look at Kaguya with a puzzled expression, but she didn't respond at all. Instead, she gave him a hard push on the back, telling him to stop talking nonsense and get on stage.

Ten seconds later, the two stood facing each other on the ring.

"You're going to fight me dressed like this?"

Wang Ma sized up his opponent for the night.

"Is there something wrong?"

Yato glanced down at his clothes.

A very ordinary hoodie, jeans, and sneakers—a typical outfit for an average passerby.

"Those closed-off clothes are not good for fighting. You still have time to take them off."

"No need. It's too much trouble to keep changing opponents. Besides... if we're fully prepared and still lose to an opponent who's so badly injured, then I really won't have any excuses at all."

"...Is that the plan? Then just pretend I didn't say anything."

Wang Ma turned his head, his tone tinged with a hint of regret.

Although I was determined to win this match no matter what, it would be rather boring if my opponent didn't come out with the mindset of winning.

Yato smiled without saying a word.

offstage.

Yamashita Kazuo seemed to breathe a sigh of relief and said:

"The opponent is much younger than Mr. Ohma. Although he has a physical advantage, with Mr. Ohma's experience and skills, even if the opponent has some strange tricks, he should be able to win as smoothly as he did against the 'Curse Master'."

"It's hard to say."

Akiyama Kaede pushed up his glasses, his tone unusually serious, which even surprised Yamashita Kazuo.

"It is true that Tokita Ohma defeated three top-tier fighters: 'Superman' Rihito, 'Spellcaster' Koji Muki, and 'Prison Angel' Jun Sekibayashi, proving that he is among the best of the top fighters... However, the same applies to his opponents."

"No, no, right?"

Yamashita Kazuo broke out in a cold sweat.

"Ha..." Akiyama Kaede sighed and said helplessly, "Do you still remember what the club president said when he asked you to choose the date of the competition?"

"Uh, it seems there was a match today, eight days later, and twelve days later. Mr. Wangma was in a hurry and chose today's match. The president asked us to seriously consider it, but Mr. Wangma refused. Is there a problem with that?"

Yamashita Kazuo thought it over carefully, but couldn't find anything amiss.

"..."

Akiyama Kaede shook his head slightly and sighed inwardly.

This was also within your calculations, President?

……

In the president's office at the Nogi Group headquarters, Hideki Nogi, with a cigar in his mouth, was playing indoor golf.

After taking a shot, he suddenly said something.

"It should be starting soon, right?"

"...Who knows, what difference is there between a beginning and an end?"

The man he was talking to.

It was none other than 'Floating Clouds' Chu Jianquan.

Compared to a month ago, this middle-aged man, who exuded a decadent charm, looked even more decadent, with a full beard and his hair disheveled behind his head, like a homeless artist who was so obsessed with art that he couldn't even afford to eat.

Izumi sat on the sofa with her back to Nogi Hideki, peeling an apple as she spoke, saying sarcastically, "As expected, businessmen are all black-hearted. I thought the substitute player who had turned the tide might even be thanking you for giving him another chance, but little did I know that it was hell."

"Seriously, doesn't your conscience hurt? Are you holding a grudge? Is it because you didn't send him as the representative fighter of the Nogi Group to participate that you were choking you, that you deliberately sent him to test whether it was Igarashi Yato?"

How can you call it 'deliberate'?

Nogi Hideki exhaled a puff of smoke and said with a smile.

"I seriously reminded them and gave them other options, but they just didn't accept them. Or... do you really want me to tell them that you lost to Igarashi Yato?"

“Izumi, I don’t know how much you’ve improved during this time, but I know your opponent certainly won’t stand still. Tokita Ohma is a great fighter, I admit that, but that’s precisely why he’s capable of helping us carry out reconnaissance missions and completing the intelligence gathering on Igarashi Yato before the Kengan Tournament.”

"You should know that Yato Igarashi will also participate in the Kengan Zemei Tournament. For us, who are determined to win, he is one of the major enemies we must be wary of."

"...That's why I hate unscrupulous businessmen."

Chu Jianquan took a bite of the apple, chewing as he said expressionlessly:

"He always says things that are impossible to refute."

(Ah, I can finally have dinner!)

Chapter 161

Taking advantage of the moment when the referee asked them to get ready, Yato activated the system's detection function and glanced at Ohma's attributes and status.

Name: Tokita Ohma

Current Status: Amnesia, Minor Injury

Age: 28

Title: Asura

Talent: Tiger's Weapon

Bloodline: ? ? ?

Skills: Divine Path lv9 (12), Two Tigers Style lv9 (lv15)

属性：力量4.5（5）、敏捷4.6（5.3）、体质5.2（5.5）总和14.3（15.8）

……

"interesting."

As expected of the 'protagonist' panel, it's different from anyone Yato has ever met before, and it even has an additional 'status'. However, seeing the words 'amnesia', he somewhat understood the system's intention.

Wangma's skill levels are inconsistent, probably because he has forgotten how to use some of the moves due to amnesia.

So... the data in parentheses after the comprehensive attribute probably doesn't refer to the data after activating [Divine Possession], but most likely refers to the data during the peak period after retrieving memories.

While Yato was thinking about these things, Hattori the Leopard waved his hand.

"Game start!"

As if on a whim to race against sound, Ohma exerted force with his heel, his movements quite stealthy, and his body launched into motion without warning. He launched a swift attack into Yato's inner side in a sliding motion, throwing a right hook at Yato's cheek.

Ohma's movements are rather exaggerated. If a boxing layman saw this, he might exclaim that it's a Russian swing. In fact, Yato could tell from the way his right foot steps forward that this punch is going to "bend".

When you hit the enemy, you should press your body weight forward. This explosive force will disrupt their center of gravity, and even if they try to block, you will be forced to fall backward by hitting their head. Then, you can finish them off with another blow and win the match cleanly.

Needless to say, if it hits the face, it's even worse.

For most fighters, the best way to deal with this situation is to dodge, but dodging can also lead to being followed up and beaten to death.

This is Wang Ma's fighting style: a fierce offensive like a raging fire, yet also as fiery and unpredictable as a fire, adjusting tactics according to the opponent's situation.

“Fire…? If you are ‘fire,’ then I am the ‘wave’ that extinguishes the fire.”

Seeing the opponent swing a punch, his right side was wide open.

Yato suddenly took a step back, almost matching Ohma's forward speed. The distance that should have been shortened in one go was instead widened by an unexpected gap, which he filled with a 'mid-section sweep kick'.

"So fast!"

Although he didn't know much about his opponent, 'Yato Igarashi', since his nickname was 'Kicking Demon', Ohma would naturally focus on guarding against his opponent's lower body.

In fact, from the moment he launched his attack, he focused two-thirds of his attention on Yato's feet, and he could see even the smallest movements, such as Yato moving his toes through his shoes.

But having said that…

This low-to-mid-section sweeping kick was still frighteningly fast.

Wang Ma adopted a pre-planned tactic, pressing down the hook punch that was originally aimed at the opponent's face in advance, blocking his own right side's open space.

Next, just seize the moment when the opponent's center of gravity is weak, use the momentum of the swing punch to turn around and twist your waist, and use a flying spin back elbow to finish off the opponent in one go.

The idea was good, but the opponent's leg was so fast and the force was self-evident.

This level of defense is not enough.

Wang Marco didn't forget that his right wrist was still injured, so he didn't hesitate to add his left hand to the defense. The moment he caught the opponent's calf, he used both hands to pull and dissipate the force in other directions.

"Two Tigers Style, Manipulation Style, Willow!"

His style is like a sudden switch from modern fighter to ancient martial arts.

The sudden change surprised even Yato. He felt that the power he had used in his left foot had been cleverly dispersed and neutralized, as if he had stepped into a whirlpool. As he lost his footing, his body was pulled and he lost his balance.

Although he didn't use the "Storm Kick," the kicking techniques he normally uses are not something that ordinary fighters can block, let alone "neutralize."

"In that case..."

Yato completely abandoned any slight contempt he might have felt for the amnesiac Ohma, and instead used the pulling force to leap into the air, executing a 180-degree high spinning kick that resembled a massive cleaver slashing across the room.

It was just a copy of the tactics that Wang Ma had envisioned.

Before his legs even landed, Wang Ma felt the strong wind pressure.

"Two Tigers Flow, Manipulation Type, Network Return!"

If you can't pull it away, bounce it back to destroy the opponent's biggest weapon.

In an instant, he made his decision.

In reality, there wasn't much time to think.

After just one exchange, Wang Ma realized it.

The opponent's level was completely different from the fighters they had fought before; he was at least as skilled as the Nogi Group fighter they had just met.

Outside the ring, it's one thing, but inside the ring, fighting someone like this requires more than just avoiding their attacks; you have to seize every opportunity to block and suppress their advantages. Even if you can't gain the initiative, you can't let it fall into their hands.

A fraction of a second later, hands and feet intertwined.

"Varied……?!"

Upon contact, Wang Ma's pupils constricted.

His move did indeed hit its target.

But... it's too light.

Compared to the impression of its powerful force, the force of this kick was ridiculously light.

In the instant that Ohma was distracted, Yato suddenly pulled back his right foot and used his left foot, which had been pulled away earlier, to launch himself forward.

Wang Ma had no choice but to raise his arms with difficulty and use the "Indestructible" technique of the Two Tiger Style Vajra Form to enhance his physical defense. However, he was still sent flying out of the ring in one breath, like a small animal being hit by a speeding car.

With a muffled thud, it crashed heavily onto the reinforced concrete wall of the underground pipes.

With their flesh and blood, they smashed countless cracks and created a pit large enough to easily accommodate a person.

"...Mr. Wang, Mr. Wang Ma"

Yamashita Kazuo broke out in a cold sweat and trembled like a leaf.

Just as he was about to run over to help her up, Akiyama Kaede grabbed his arm.

"The game is still ongoing. If you go there now, it will result in Tokita Ohma being declared the loser."
