Crossover Anime: Starting with Destroying Kengan

Page 174

Ghost King Mountain Lord remained in his advancing posture, his head pressed firmly against Lü Tian's chest and abdomen, his hands tightly gripping Lü Tian's waist.

Lu Tian kept his head down, making it impossible to see his expression.

His whole body was embedded in the wall, with rubble all around his feet.

The white shirt was torn to shreds and scattered all over the floor.

He displayed a strong physique comparable to that of a bodybuilder, while his hands were placed on Ghost King Mountain Lord's shoulders, seemingly to push him away.

Katahara Sayaka exclaimed in surprise.

"Hit! Hit! Ghost King Mountain's final blow has successfully struck Lu Tian! What a swift and powerful headbutt! Following the last match, our arena's perimeter wall has been damaged again. However, spectators behind the wall can rest assured that the venue's safety facilities are in place!"

Seeing some disturbance in the stands behind the wall, she quickly reassured them.

However, most viewers were more concerned about who actually won.

Neither of them moved.

Did they 'die together'?

No, not really.

Poof.

Ghost King Mountain Lord's body slowly slid to the bottom, blood began to spill from his mouth and nose, but he had already completely fainted.

Now let's look at his opponent.

Lu Tian slowly raised his head, his expression still as still as a stagnant pool.

"Uh……!"

Suddenly, he covered his mouth.

But blood still seeped out from between his fingers.

"The outcome is decided! The winner of this match is Lü Tian, ​​a fighter from the Toyota Foundation!"

Upon seeing this, the referee, Hattori Cheetah, immediately delivered his verdict.

This result surprised many people.

How could this be?

"The attack from Ghost King Mountain clearly hit Lu Tian, ​​so why did it happen that Ghost King Mountain fell instead? And Lu Tian's injuries don't seem as serious as we thought. What exactly happened in that split second when we didn't even see it?"

Katahara Sayaka also shared the same doubts as many others.

Unsurprisingly, all eyes turned to Yato, who was drinking water to moisten his throat.

Sensing the girl's curious inquiry, Yato put down his water glass and said calmly:

"At the moment when Gui Wangshan launched his charge, Lü Tian was originally going to dodge, but Gui Wangshan was also very clever. He knew that a straight attack was easy to dodge, which would turn into an opportunity for the opponent."

"Therefore, the Ghost King Mountain fighter changed his tactics at the crucial moment."

A change of tactics?!

How could someone change their moves at that speed?

Upon hearing this, many viewers were stunned.

"It's called a change of tactics, but it's actually just releasing a false signal. In other words... the Ghost King Mountain player is gambling, betting that the opponent will mistake his advance for a feint, and that there is actually a deeper attack in store."

Yato continued.

"But in fact, no. Lu Tian's overly good prediction and reading ability became a hindrance. That momentary hesitation made him miss the best time to dodge, so Gui Wangshan's rush was able to hit."

"But if that's the case, the winner should be the Ghost King Mountain contestant."

Katahara Shoko became increasingly puzzled.

"This is where Lu Tian's strength is truly demonstrated."

As he said this, Yato revealed a meaningful smile.

"After realizing his misjudgment, he corrected it in time. First, he deliberately jumped back to reduce the impact, then he used his hands to support his opponent's shoulders as a second buffer. When the headbutt hit his chest and abdomen, he used the force-dissipating technique from Chinese boxing to reduce the impact to a minimum."

"Finally, he delivered a knee strike to the face of the Ghost King Mountain fighter, knocking him unconscious and preventing further attacks."

"Strictly speaking, the real injury suffered by athlete Lü Tian came more from the reaction force of the impact on his back. He vomited blood because his internal organs were injured by the shock."

"However, it is already terrifying to be able to do this much. Compared to his excellent power dissipation skills, I admire Lu Tian's 'resourcefulness' even more. Judgment, mistakes, compensation... In the less than one second that Gui Wangshan took action, he was able to do so much."

"This 'resourcefulness' that can handle any emergency can be described as a profound understanding of martial arts principles, an intangible and intangible 'omnipotent martial art'."

Inside the players' tunnel.

Lü Tian leaned against the wall, trying to regulate his breathing and prevent the internal bleeding from spreading further.

Hearing these words almost made him choke.

"...Yato Igarashi!"

Lu Tian's face twisted in anger.

It's no longer the stagnant pool it used to be.

It was bad enough that I tricked him before, but now I have to expose his true colors!

In the instant of their exchange, if he hadn't activated [Invisibility] in time to counter, he would be the one lying on the ground right now.

I thought it was only used for a short while, and theoretically no one would be able to tell.

After all, how can you see so clearly when moving at high speed?

But he still underestimated someone's insight and shameless methods.

It wasn't just that they saw it clearly; they even revealed it in a roundabout way.

He is truly unfilial!

But Lü Tian couldn't say anything.

He knew that Yato wanted to rise in rank, and that it was unethical for him to go to Yato's territory to do missions and steal credit. It was only natural that he would be targeted.

As long as you don't go too far, and you report it to the organization, they won't pay attention.

"Just wait and see how I deal with you when I get to the finals."

Although theoretically the opponent in the next game is the winner of the previous game.

That is, Wu Lei'an of the Wu clan.

However, no matter how much Lu Tian paid attention to those guys who fought based on instinct, he wouldn't take them to heart.

The most powerful technique is the invisible one.

Having mastered the "invisible" element, he was invincible.

……

a, b, c.

The matches for the three groups have now concluded.

It was just time for dinner.

While the spectators were having their meal, the event organizers quickly gathered people to repair the venue.

Next, the eight players in Group D will have to fight tooth and nail.

One of them is the absolute king of the Kengan Association—'Metsudō no Ki'!

No matter when his matches are scheduled, they are always the 'grand finale' that attracts everyone's attention.

Not only are the competition organizers highly motivated, but audiences from all over the world are also very excited about it.

The discussion on the Kengan Association's official website is in full swing.

After half a day of fermentation, more witnesses joined in.

Major media outlets are vying to report on it, causing a terrifying reaction from all walks of life. It's no exaggeration to say that the entire world's attention is now focused on the knockout stage.

7:20 PM.

The dome-shaped arena was once again filled with people.

The number of viewers watching the live stream on YouTube has also surpassed 300 million.

Due to the time difference, most of them are Asian.

"Welcome back to the competition venue! Next up are the last four matches of the day in Group D. I'm sure you're all eager to see them, so let's begin."

Katahara Sayaka stood on the field with a smile.

She wore a burgundy evening gown paired with long, silver-white hair.

Even the spotlight couldn't outshine her charm.

"Please welcome both players to the stage!"

Group D, Match 1.

The thirteenth match of the day.

[Motor] vs. [Yiwu Real Estate]

One side is a powerful clan known for its assassins.

The current leader of the Strange Arm Style, 'Demon Gun'

One is Chiba Takayuki, a top 'actor' in the underworld, known as the 'faceless man' who is skilled in all kinds of martial arts.

Seeing these two fight.

Yato had already closed his eyes.

No matter how much Katahara Sayaka called him, he wouldn't open his eyes.

It was too cruel; he couldn't bear to watch.

If Yato had to say anything, he only wanted to address the person he had just met.

"Grandpa Kuroki, go easy on him, don't beat him into a mentally unstable state."

Chapter 224

In the underworld, there exists a criminal group known as 'actors'.

They carry out numerous shady missions such as 'fraud,' 'assassination,' and 'infiltration' using their excellent intelligence gathering and acting skills.

Among them, Chiba Takayuki belongs to the martial arts 'actor' type, who engages in tasks that tend to be violent, and therefore has an extremely strong ability to learn and imitate in combat.

So powerful that even its 'appearance' can be deceiving.

Before the match began, he deliberately introduced himself to let his opponent know his abilities, and then lied that he could master the moves he had only seen once, in order to put psychological pressure on Kuroki and make him overly defensive. This would give him the opportunity to use fast attack tactics to defeat his opponent.

Although the idea was good, he greatly underestimated the potential of the situation.

"Really? Then you are quite a good 'successor'. It is quite rare to find a link that can pass on the skills perfectly. I will be careful not to hurt you."

Regarding Chiba Takayuki's pre-match remarks, [the text appears to be a fragmented collection of characters and symbols, possibly due to OCR errors. A direct translation is not possible without further context or clarification.]

Whether the other party had fallen for it or not, Chiba Takayuki didn't know, but he was definitely annoyed by the answer.

The competition started with the 'role-playing templates' that I had accumulated before.

Not only have they mastered the skills, but their combat prowess has also surpassed that of the character they are playing.

But it was useless.

All were detained and arrested.

Chiba Takayuki initially thought it was just an 'accident'.

The character being portrayed and the opponent are not very compatible in terms of martial arts.

Then it switched to another character.

The actors chosen by Chiba Takayuki are all top-notch, some of whom are even familiar to the audience.

Even the figures of deceased masters were briefly resurrected in him.
