Crossover Anime: Starting with Destroying Kengan

Page 58

Shirogane Miyuki roared inwardly.

Suddenly, he heard a loud banging sound.

It was only then that Shirogane Miyuki came to his senses and began to seriously examine his surroundings.

But what first caught his attention was neither the ring he rarely saw, nor the professional equipment placed around him, but rather—people.

Although the intensity of her unusual aura was far less than that of the girl named 'Tianyu', she was still quite eye-catching!

A slender, black-haired girl in sportswear, with her hair tied in a ponytail, stood in an open space, facing the wall, as if she were being punished, but her posture was a little strange.

The distance between the heels is the same as the distance between the shoulders, and the toes are turned inward at an angle of about 70 degrees. Squat down naturally as the toes point, with the knees naturally bending, giving a sense of relaxation. Place your hands in front of you and move them back and forth like a wheel. The speed is so slow that it makes onlookers anxious and impatient, wishing they could do it themselves.

Shirogane Miyuki quickly looked away.

Turn your attention to the source of that intense sound of impact.

He was a silver-haired youth who evoked images of a 'wolf'—unruly and untamed.

He was launching a relentless attack on the steel plate wooden dummy in front of him, which was more than a person tall.

The wooden stake itself is divided into three sections: upper, middle, and lower. A total of six stake handles are embedded in the surface, corresponding to the hands, elbows, knees, and feet. The three sections can rotate in different directions simultaneously, and the stake handles themselves have the function of being retractable and lengthening.

Furthermore, the rotation speed will increase further when subjected to impact.

Under these circumstances, the silver-haired youth parried the attacking stakers while simultaneously seizing an opening to strike the stakes.

This is certainly not an easy task.

When the wooden stake spins fast enough, he can only parry until he can no longer defend himself and is hit two or three times before he withdraws from the stake's attack range and waits for its spinning speed to decrease before continuing.

The silver-haired youth's bare body was covered with red, swollen, and bruised marks. Shirogane Miyuki thought that if it were a normal person, after being hit a few times, they would subconsciously develop a fear and dare not try again. But this person did not. It was as if he did not have the feeling of fear. Even though he was anxious about his repeated failures, he never thought of giving up.

boom!

Suddenly, a stake-holding hand popped out; it was the seventh stake-holding hand that 'should not exist'.

It struck the silver-haired youth in the abdomen like a heavy punch.

His movements involuntarily distorted, and the other hand mercilessly struck his temple, knocking him to his knees. Whether it was the exhaustion he had accumulated earlier being triggered or the injury he had suffered, he was unable to stand up for a moment.

"Hey, are you alright?!"

Shirogane Miyuki rushed over, and upon closer inspection, he discovered that Zhuang's hands were also stained with blood, immediately realizing something was wrong.

"Huh? Who are you?"

Narushima Koga raised his head, looking surprised.

As Shirogane Miyuki had predicted, the skin on his right forehead had split open, and blood was flowing down, staining his temples red.

"He is the tutor I hired for you."

At that moment, Yato walked over with his hands in his pockets.

This interrupted their brief exchange.

"Tutor?"

"Is this the person?"

Hikaru Narushima and Miyuki Shirogane looked at each other in bewilderment.

"You should know the rules of Shuchiin Academy. I don't want my members to fail to graduate. Even if it's just last-minute cramming, you have to get through this for me," Yato said.

"It doesn't matter if I can't graduate. I can just drop out. I don't care about my degree."

Hikaru Narushima scratched his head, his tone somewhat irritated.

Hearing this, Shirogane Miyuki looked a little displeased, but before he could think further, Yato suddenly kicked Narushima Koga on the shoulder, knocking him to the ground and nearly injuring him.

"Aren't you taking fighting too lightly?"

Yato looked down at him coldly.

Narushima Hikari's initial anger vanished instantly under Yato's gaze.

An invisible sense of oppression swept over us, accompanied by words.

Despite being completely naked, Narushima Hikari felt an unprecedented heaviness in his body, as if all his will to resist and even his remaining strength had been stripped away.

This oppressive feeling, almost tangible, even pulled Yukino, who was immersed in her stance training, out of her trance and looked over with a strange expression.

"Um, Igarashi... calm down, let's talk this out."

Shirogane Miyuki tried to help Narushima Koga out of his predicament.

But Yato ignored him completely and continued to stare coldly at Narushima Koga.

"I told you, don't become a stupid guy, or I'll beat you half to death. Although your learning efficiency has amazed me in the past two weeks, as expected, your thinking is still stuck in the past when you were a delinquent student."

"I don't care about academic qualifications either, but knowledge and academic qualifications are two different things. Remember this: there are no fools in top-notch fighting skills."

"If you approach a fight with the mindset of brute force, you'll only be treated like a wild beast and either killed or tamed. You need to be a hunter, not a wild beast!"

"Physiology, kinesiology, nutrition, physics, mechanics, medicine, psychology... and other knowledge that you think has nothing to do with martial arts and are not even in the same circle, are actually the cornerstones of the modern martial arts system."

"If you don't understand medicine, do you know the consequences of injuries to different parts of the body? If you don't understand psychology, what if you miss a good opportunity and lose? If you don't understand kinesiology, can you master the essence of power generation faster? If you don't understand nutrition, can you regulate your body? Do you expect to be like a champion boxer with a team around you all day long, like a nanny taking care of you around the clock?"

Yato bombarded him with questions, leaving Narushima Hikaru speechless and Shirogane Miyuki dumbfounded.

So, is this the standard by which martial arts training is done nowadays?

"Sorry, President, I've been a little too engrossed in practicing lately."

After a while, Narushima Koga calmed down, got up, sat on the ground, and apologized.

"You've only just started, and the changes are most rapid during this period. It's not a big deal to get obsessed with it."

Yato also restrained his aura. As he gradually adapted to and mastered Conqueror's Haki, his aura became increasingly refined and profound. Any slight emotional fluctuation would be as terrifying and awe-inspiring as a storm to others.

Have you heard of the theory of the Three Harmonies?

"Three Harmonies? Isn't it Six Harmonies? I remember reading about this theory in a Jeet Kune Do textbook."

"I asked Narushima Hikaru, puzzled."

"Now I'll tell you about another one, my own 'Three Combinations'." Yato held up three fingers, bending each one as he spoke: "The combination of physique and skill, the combination of will and emotion, the combination of knowledge and experience."

"If you can do that, then you can become a first-class... no, a top-class fighter, and at the same time, you can bring the 'survival rule' I taught you—Jeet Kune Do—to its fullest potential."

Chapter 79

"It's surprising. Judging from your teaching style alone, I would have thought you were an old man whose ideas were still stuck in the ancient times."

After Hikaru Narushima and Miyuki Shirogane went upstairs to the clubroom to discuss tutoring matters, Yukino came over. Her voice was ethereal and melodious, like a stringed instrument, and her temperament was completely opposite to that of her older sister, Haruno.

"Although I recommended stance training to you, which is not favored by modern combat techniques, there's no need to have such an exaggerated misunderstanding of me, is there?"

Yato glanced at the other person.

Although he has given up on teaching Yukino Jeet Kune Do, the agreement between the three of them remains valid.

So he began to teach Wing Chun step by step.

Jeet Kune Do is said to be a fighting art that draws on the strengths of many schools, breaks free from established constraints, and is unrestrained. However, its origins can be traced back to Wing Chun, boxing, and fencing.

Wu Horio once said that Yato was one of the few fighters who did not look forward to learn from the essence of other martial arts, but instead went back to the source.

Yato believes that to master a fighting technique, one must understand its essence and origin. Starting from the source is definitely more direct and insightful than blindly studying it.

So, setting aside Jeet Kune Do and mixed martial arts, his most proficient fighting styles are Wing Chun, boxing, and fencing.

Considering Yukino's limited stamina, Yato taught her the portion of Wing Chun he knew.

"Personally, I admire modern combat training methods, but the methods of the ancients are not necessarily ineffective. This is the value of so-called unorthodox methods. The founder of Wing Chun was a woman. Although it has been modified by many generations, it still retains many things that are extremely beneficial to female practitioners. Among them, stance training is of paramount importance."

"It can effectively and gradually improve your physical condition. Your mind works much better than mine, but your constitution is weak."

Yato pinched his chin, examining Yukino's body.

The latter felt as if his gaze had materialized, and the gaze that swept over him sent a chill down her spine. She instinctively crossed her arms in a self-defense stance and looked at him warily.

"I understand what you mean, but please don't look at me like that, it makes me want to call the police."

"Please do not."

"It's good that you know how serious this is."

"No, I just don't want to be arrested for child molestation."

Yukino was slightly taken aback. She looked at her body and suddenly realized what was happening. A look of embarrassment and annoyance appeared on her usually cool face.

"President! I feel like I could sue you based on just that one sentence!"

"Don't worry, if you practice the methods I teach you, you'll have a figure ten times better than the models in magazines."

Yato provided a guarantee.

"...I didn't expect that outcome, but I do know the benefits of exercise, so you don't need to worry that I will refuse to cooperate."

Yukino coughed lightly, her eyes darting around.

"I think I heard you guys talking about something interesting."

At that moment, Tianyu appeared.

"We were just exchanging some training experiences, please don't mind it... More importantly, is Tenyu going home?"

Yukino suddenly noticed that Tenyu was carrying a sports bag.

"No..." Tenyu denied, turning his gaze to Yato, "Didn't you tell her where we're going next?"

"I was just about to say that."

Yato shrugged and said to Yukino, who looked puzzled, "Where were we? Oh right, we were talking about your weak constitution."

"Yes, physical strength is the only thing that leaves me helpless."

Yukino spoke frankly.

She has enough confidence in her appearance and intelligence. She is proficient in home economics, with no subject she struggles with. She can also pick up musical instruments quickly. She is also quite athletic. She is truly a woman of both academic and athletic prowess.

But no one is perfect, and even she has weaknesses.

That is 'physical strength'.

· ······Requesting flowers····· ····

It's not physical fitness (physical ability), but simply endurance.

No matter what you do, you need to rest after a while. This is true for normal people as well, but her situation is much worse than that of normal people.

This can no longer be called a 'shortcoming'; it is a genuine weakness!

"Actually, the fundamental reason I practiced Aikido was to improve this problem, but in terms of results, although I can't say I gained nothing, I didn't achieve my fundamental goal."

Yukino's voice was tinged with a sigh.

"I joined this strange club partly in the hope of solving this problem. I must thank you, president, for this. Through the training methods you taught me, I have indeed felt a change in my body, although it may be negligible, it is definitely not an illusion."

0 ..... ...

"It's too early to express gratitude now."

Yato revealed a smile that Yukino found somewhat strange.

"It's impossible to expect standing meditation to solve your problems. In the end, it's just a method of regulating the body's circulatory system by using the principle of meridian circulation. It's a warm-up step to help you get your body moving."

"Warm-up?"

Yukino's expression froze.

She suspected that she had heard it wrongly.

The other party actually called 'stance training' a warm-up.

You should know that I put in a lot of effort just to get into the zone this week. Every time I finished standing, I was drenched in sweat, but I felt inexplicably refreshed.

It's like having a truly effective workout.

In her mind, what followed should have been a long-term project, like a slow and steady process.

Yato took out his phone and checked the time, saying, "I'll talk to you in detail when we find another place. By the way, did you bring everything I asked you to bring?"
