The passage of time was not affected by anyone's anxiety, and it passed by minute by minute until a certain point came, and the referee finally couldn't stand it anymore: "Because the fighter from the Nogi Group is absent, the winner is--"
“No, I’m here.”
"?!"
At some point, a figure that was not particularly tall but quite strong had quietly appeared behind the referee.
He was wearing a khaki Taoist robe, with his long brown hair casually tied into a ponytail. The stubble on his lips and chin was not trimmed cleanly, and his slightly narrowed eyes made him look lazy.
It was that powerful but irresponsible man that "Floating Cloud" first met Quan!
The referee was startled by the guy who suddenly appeared behind him. After he came to his senses, he couldn't help but grit his teeth, but in the end he didn't say much.
After all, this guy arrived on time and arrived just in time after speaking, so he wasn't considered late.
"Now that both fighters are here, let's face each other and take our positions!"
"Yes Yes Yes--"
While responding to the referee's instructions in a nonchalant manner, Chu Jianquan did not forget to interact with Gong Yangzhen: "Oh, by the way, I'm sorry, I just chatted up a young lady on the way here. I kept you waiting for a long time."
"Well... but it's a loss anyway. It doesn't matter if you lose early or late, right, brother Sirius?"
"..."
But the words spoken by the young man opposite him made Chu Jianquan raise his eyebrows slightly.
"——Then you may regret tomorrow that you didn't get closer to that girl today, Uncle Floating Cloud."
Under the gaze of this lazy uncle, Gong Yang Zhen just raised his eyes slightly, his face, which was obscured by darkness and with its back to the light, was expressionless and it was impossible to tell whether he was happy or angry.
A low-level provocation.
It doesn’t matter. I just crawled back from hell and everything is so beautiful.
So now it's your turn.
[Heart of Steel - Passive - Huge Devour has been fully charged. 】
——Get ready to enter hell, Hatsumizumi.
Chapter 4: Extreme Dose! (k)
"Both sides face each other, ready—go!"
"Shua!——"
Almost at the moment the referee gave the order to start the fight, Gong Yang Zhen disappeared from the spot.
At this moment, the suggestion that Taoi Satsuki had proposed became the action instructions he arranged before his consciousness sank.
"Ah Zhen, your opponent today, 'Floating Cloud' Chu Jianquan, is a very strange player."
"Apart from the matches where he lost due to off-court factors, the level of skill he displayed in the fighting matches where he won was actually somewhat inconsistent."
"When he's in good shape, no matter how tall, short, fat, thin, strong or agile, almost no fighter can last a minute in front of him. But when he's in bad shape, he'll get into a fight with fighters who are obviously lower than him... How should I put it? He's a so-called 'nervous' fighter."
"So, first of all, let's determine whether the opponent is in good condition. The criteria for judging are—"
reaction.
So how do you judge the other person's reaction level at this moment?
The answer is quick attack!
Borrowed image·Pillar of flame·Burning body!
The muscles went from being extremely relaxed to completely tense in an instant, and the kinetic energy generated by pushing off the ground was more than twice that of normal full-strength exertion!
The two-meter distance passed in a flash, and at this moment, Hatsumizumi, who was still in the starting position of standing on his hind legs and stretching his thousand feet forward, seemed to have no reaction at all.
It seemed that he just didn't react!
It was not until the opponent threw a powerful straight punch at his head that Chu Jianquan finally reacted. He quickly put his arms up to block the blow.
"boom!--"
[Heart of Steel - Passive - Huge Devour has taken effect, your maximum health increases by 59. ]
[Current target is cooling down, remaining cooling time: seconds. ]
[Health value: 5090 (current health value) / 5092 (maximum health value)]
"Varied……!"
The force coming from the arms that were crossed to block the attack was a little too outrageous. At this moment, Hatsumi Izumi used the Hatsumi-ryu Aikido's receiving technique to relieve part of the opponent's force, and quickly retreated to create distance, relieving part of the force again.
Even so, my arms still ached slightly when I put them down.
"Such strength... He is worthy of being called 'Superman'. He is not inferior to 'Tiger' back then. He is really a terrifying guy."
I was just marveling at the opponent's amazing strength, but the opponent seemed to have expected that this attack would not work, and continued to sprint after hitting the target with one strike -
And right now, the distance between the two sides doesn't seem to be widening at all!
No, not good——
In front of him was Gong Yang Zhen, whose eyes flashed with a cold light.
It’s too late!
[Vigorous Medical Practice (E) has been activated, your next attack will have additional physical damage. ]
Push the ground slightly with your hind feet, bend your front legs - jump up and hit your knees!
"boom!--"
As the hard kneecap came into contact with the soft lower abdomen, a figure suddenly flew backwards like a shrimp. Needless to say, it was Chu Jianquan who was wearing a Taoist robe.
The whole audience was in an uproar for a moment. What, what was going on?!
How long has it been since it started? Three seconds? Five seconds?
That Hatsumi Izumi...that Nogi Group's ace fighter "Floating Cloud" Hatsumi Izumi was just beaten away like that?
Somewhere, Imai Xiaoyu, who had a blond bob and a baby face and looked quite young, was also a little confused and asked: "U-um, Mr. Wakatsuki, is this the 'Floating Cloud' that defeated you before?"
Wakatsuki, who was called out, was also a little confused, but after sighing, he understood and said, "Xiao Yuzhou, don't underestimate that man. He's just not in good shape today."
"But then again - the footwork and quick attack tactics that instantly accelerate to the maximum speed... It seems to have a miraculous effect on that guy Hatsumi."
Okay, okay, I’ll write it down in my little notebook.
The camera returns to the center of the arena.
Gong Yang Zhen, who had already stood firmly on the ground, retracted his momentum and returned to defense, his amber eyes still fixed on the direction where Chu Jianquan flew.
——His reaction seems a bit slow. This guy seems to be in poor condition.
Could it be that he took some time to have sex on the way here?
Gong Yang Zhen felt somewhat relieved, yet also somewhat regretful that he could not compete with his opponent at his strongest state. His mood at this moment was damn complicated.
However one thing is certain.
"This blow... 'Floating Cloud', that one blow can't possibly knock you out. How long are you going to lie there? It's too early for you to dream!"
As his voice fell, it seemed as if a cloud of mist was coming towards Gong Yang Zhen, vast, misty, and unpredictable...
Without saying a word, Gong Yang Zhen just took on this inexplicable momentum. He was silent for a moment, then slowly assumed the "Three Body Pose".
In front of Gong Yang Zhen, the referee on the sidelines was about to run over to check on the person who fell to the ground, but before he got close, "Floating Cloud" Chu Jianquan had already stood up on his own.
At this moment, his long hair was slightly spread out, and the cloth of the Taoist robe on his chest and abdomen seemed to have been torn by something and became a little tattered.
But his spirits were still good, and he showed no signs of confusion from the heavy blow.
Obviously, a lot of the force from the flying knee attack had been absorbed by him before, so it didn't hurt his internal organs and affect his combat ability.
And now, "Floating Cloud" seems to be showing its prowess.
"It hurts so much... Um, this was ancient Muay Thai, right? Muay Thai plus boxing? Sirius boy, are you a knockoff version of the God of Fighting?"
"Forget it, it doesn't matter."
"I admit that your strength is already higher than that of 'Tiger', but——"
Whether you are a "tiger" or a "wolf", how can you tear apart the uncertain clouds?
You're just a stray dog on the ground, don't be so arrogant!
In the midst of silence, the spring began to move.
He brushed off the dust on his body, then moved his bare feet and slowly walked towards Gong Yang Zhen with a swagger.
It's as if to say "Hit me, idiot".
The quick attack strategy failed to end the game, what should I do next?
"If the fight cannot be ended in a short period of time, and Floating Cloud's condition has improved, try to avoid fighting in the inner circle, and do not allow the opponent to have the opportunity to grab the limbs, especially the joints. If there is any sign of it, force it back with fierce fighting skills in time--"
[Heart of Steel - Passive - Huge Devour has been fully charged. 】
"..."
When they were close to the inner circle, Gong Yang Zhen, who was standing on the ground with a stride, did not let him get close. He suddenly exerted force with his hind feet, followed by a swift half-step punch straight to the opponent's chest and abdomen.
however.
As if waking up from a dream, Chu Jianquan's eyes narrowed, and then he suddenly turned sideways to avoid the attack.
However, Gong Yangzhen's offensive is not over yet!
Use the front foot as the axis to twist the hip and lift the leg——
Twist the body and kick from the middle!
"Floating Clouds", I'll kick you apart!
But it still didn't work! Although he reacted after Gong Yangzhen had initiated the move, Chu Jianquan suddenly stepped forward and passed his body through the gap between the trajectory of the sweeping leg and the ground.
Then came the hook, the straight punch, the swinging punch... a series of gorgeous punches, but none of them worked, all of which were dodged by Chu Jianquan. At this moment, he truly fit the floating nickname "Floating Cloud"——
It's really like a cloud that can't be touched!
Even someone as calm as Gong Yang Zhen couldn't help but be shocked at this moment.
The charging of Heart Steel has been ready for a long time, but the effect has not been triggered. It is obvious that the effect will be triggered even if the strength is removed. If there is no contact with the opponent at all, there is nothing you can do.
Is this uncle really made of clouds?
At this moment, the "tiger" Wakatsuki Bushi felt some empathy with Gong Yang Zhen.
That's right.
"Imai, did you see it?"
"Ah? You can tell something... Are you saying that Mr. Hatsumi kept dodging and not fighting back?"
"No... I was simply talking about his dodge - pay attention, when he first met that guy, his dodge range became smaller and smaller."
"?!"
Regarding his words, Imai Xiaoyuzhou, who was not paying much attention, might not have any feelings for a while, but as the person involved, Gong Yangzhen undoubtedly had the most say.
——He was sweating profusely at this moment.
Chu Jianquan in front of him, the movements to evade his attack became smaller and smaller, until a critical threshold, Gong Yangzhen's attack seemed to "pass through" Chu Jianquan's body in an instant!
And the other party even had time to talk.
"Phew - it feels so good. It's rare to feel this way."
Forcing a reaction force beyond the limits of human beings——Ultimate Dodge!
The technique of avoiding damage with the smallest possible range of motion by tightening and loosening the knees. Because the body's central axis did not move, it looked as if the body had never moved and the attack had passed directly through his body.
This is the dodge ability of "Floating Cloud" Hatsumi Izumi, which has never appeared in ordinary Kengan competitions and even the intelligence master Taoi Satsuki is unaware of it! It is the dodging ability unique to "Floating Cloud" when he is in excellent condition!
And now, "Floating Cloud", which is in excellent condition, is about to take action to win the victory.
"He's moving around so much. How come this kid is so energetic? Does he have inexhaustible energy?"
"Alas, if I can't catch your hands and feet, it will be difficult to use fixed skills to break your joints and win. It is also difficult for 'From the Cloud' to hit a moving target."
