Crossover Anime: Starting with Destroying Kengan

But, without warning—

Blood stained the view.

It was splashed towards the sky.

Duma's eyes were filled with astonishment and bewilderment.

In the end what happened?

Everyone looked at Duma and showed the exact same expression as him.

Even their ideas are highly similar.

what happened?

Why did Duma suddenly have such a huge wound on his shoulder and waist, resembling a naginata?

"Did you see clearly?"

Sakayanagi, the chairman of the board of directors of the Higher Education Academy, looked at the young man next to him who was dressed in a black suit and wearing sunglasses, and whose behavior was extremely low-key, like a bodyguard.

"A move that can't be seen clearly would lose its meaning if you could see it clearly." The young man crossed his arms, his gaze fixed on Duma, who was bleeding profusely, through his sunglasses. His tone revealed a hint of excitement: "Although I can't see it clearly, I can roughly guess the nature of the attack... There's only one way to attack from that position. It's unbelievable. Could this person be a descendant of ninjas?"

"That technique is less like martial arts and more like ninjutsu! No, only ninjutsu can be called it! It is truly exhilarating to witness such skill."

"Enough with the nonsense, Falcon. I just want to ask you, are you confident you can secure a spot?"

Sakayanagi had no interest in the young man's thoughts.

His purpose, from beginning to end, has only been one.

· ······Requesting flowers····· ····

That means securing a spot.

Only in this way can the influence of the Higher Education Institute surpass that of the other schools, accumulating enough leverage to win the next chairmanship of ru7.

As for what comes next, I'll only have the resources to plan for it once I'm in the position of chairman of ru7.

"That depends on whether there is anyone else besides myself who can cause harm to the other side. In a one-on-one situation, the outcome is at most fifty-fifty, so it is safest to try for the second spot."

Hayabusa's opinion was met with a nod of agreement from Sakayanagi.

Indeed, rather than fighting to the death with the other party, it's better to give them a spot and let them compete for the second spot.

"Come to think of it... it seems like we unconsciously assumed Duma would lose. What if Duma wins?"

0 ...... .......

"Then I will set the record straight for ninjas."

……

"Whoosh—hiss!"

Duma tried to relieve the pain by breathing, but the wound was much deeper than he had imagined, and the breathing muscles pulled on the injury, causing him to grimace in pain.

However, he was also somewhat relieved.

Fortunately, I have a good amount of fat and muscle.

If it were me back when I was still a Guardian, even if I didn't die on the spot after taking such a blow, I would never have been able to get up and continue fighting.

"This guy has actually mastered footwork to a level comparable to a blade...!"

Duma stared intently at Yato's feet, utterly shocked.

Although he didn't react immediately, after calming down, he quickly deduced a conclusion that was very close to the truth based on his rich combat experience and awareness.

The opponent must have launched a back upper kick the instant they fell and rolled over.

Moreover, it wasn't a kick with forward momentum, but rather the sole of the foot grazed past my body without actually touching me, which is why I didn't realize that I had been hit.

But to create such a terrifying cutting effect without touching the enemy is simply unheard of.

Duma preferred to believe that the other party had hidden a razor blade or other concealed weapon in his shoe.

'Hmm? Come to think of it, the competition didn't seem to prohibit the use of props, did it?'

He suddenly reacted.

He glanced warily at Yato, then at the referee, as if he wanted to say something.

at this time……

"what?"

Yato glanced helplessly at his feet. His right shoe suddenly split in two, as if it had been cut in two by a cutting machine, with an unusually smooth edge.

Duma's expression froze upon seeing this.

Chapter 100

"It's true that using this trick while wearing shoes is a bit inconvenient, although the root cause is that I'm just not mature enough."

Yato casually kicked his broken shoes and socks aside.

For convenience, I also took off my left shoe and sock.

"My strength has increased a bit too quickly lately, which has made me a little arrogant without realizing it. Facing an enemy like you, I'm still wearing shoes, socks, and a school uniform. I really need to reflect on that."

Yato jumped around barefoot in place and smiled at Duma, whose expression was stiff.

"Come on, keep going."

He could sense a slight sense of pressure emanating from Duma.

This is enough to prove that the other party is not weak.

Although he can't compare to Izumi Hatsumi when he's in top form, he's at least a first-rate master on par with Gohori.

To satisfy his curiosity, Yato even turned on the system's detection function and took a peek.

As expected, the total number of attributes exceeded fourteen.

But his highest stat among the three dimensions wasn't physical constitution, but rather speed of 0.67.

This surprised Yato a little.

However, upon seeing that his fighting style was 'My Style of Body LV11', he immediately understood.

Disloyalty.

This martial art, which originated from Okinawan karate, does not possess the powerful, straightforward, and hard power characteristics of karate. Instead, it is a martial art similar to kayapola, which emphasizes body movement and agility.

They often perform unbelievable actions to launch attacks against the enemy.

Those unfamiliar with the rhythm of the track are often caught off guard.

But the Duma is clearly no longer the most primitive type of passage.

He combined his understanding of other fighting styles with adjustments based on his own circumstances to create a unique style of martial arts that he used only on himself.

The level is even as high as 11!

Despite his injury, the formidable Duma did not falter.

Instead, they took the initiative to launch an attack.

He knew very well that the longer his injury dragged on, the worse it would get, and that the key to victory was to defeat his opponent as soon as possible.

Influenced by this idea, he changed his initial eerie and light style, which was as elusive as a balloon, and shot towards Yato like a giant cannonball.

The wooden floor simply couldn't withstand the explosive force of such an exaggerated weight in an instant, creating a pit nearly two meters in diameter and half a meter deep.

Yato's right hand is forward, with his five fingers spread flat and pointing upward.

Although he took out his left hand, he kept it behind his back.

This stance is very close to the international perception of Chinese martial arts today.

But in reality, Yato rarely uses his left hand.

Because Jeet Kune Do relentlessly pursues 'holistic', wearing gold wristbands inevitably affects the left hand significantly, as if it were injured, causing a noticeable slowdown in reaction time.

Not only will you fall behind the overall attack rhythm, but you'll also be exploited by the enemy as a weakness.

Since that's the case, why not just fight with one hand?

Although it may seem like looking down on someone, isn't it a sign of disrespect to fight while wearing weighted wristbands?

Since you're going to choose either way, you might as well pick the one that makes you more comfortable.

However, none of them, including Duma, had the same thought as him: "This guy is too arrogant for not even using his left hand." Instead, they felt that he was doing this for some kind of terrible tactical purpose.

Yato dodged his opponent's feinting low kick and, almost instinctively, used Jeet Kune Do's "Tan-sau" and "Kuo-sau" techniques to deflect his opponent's powerful, whip-like punches from unpredictable angles, while his body continued to retreat.

The skin on his right hand had begun to show patterns that resembled scales.

That's right, those are the characteristics modified by Tianyu's Ice Needle Elixir.

The appearance of scales means that the defensive capabilities of the hands have been enhanced to the current maximum.

No, that's not the case. Yato would have a hard time withstanding the opponent's heavy blows.

No matter what, their physiques are not in the same league.

He is still at a disadvantage in terms of strength.

The skill levels of both sides seem to be evenly matched at the moment. The level 11 dantian is not as terrifying as he imagined, which may be related to the fact that the martial art itself has a relatively low level of sophistication.

To onlookers, Yato's right hand moved with the precision and agility of plucking flowers and leaves, precisely and deftly constructing a wide defensive area covering the upper and middle positions in front of him.

The lower body is then used for footwork, or low kicking techniques such as shoveling and kicking to intercept or block.

The two were locked in a tangled struggle, constantly circling around each other.

The situation has reached a stalemate.

"...?"

During this process, Yato unexpectedly discovered that Duma was focusing on the right half of his body and the center line when he made his offerings, ignoring the gaps on the left half of his body, which made him suspicious.

However, during the defensive process, the opponent's gaze would always unconsciously fall on his left arm, and gradually, he began to understand.

'Could it be that this guy is wary of some hidden killer move in my left hand?'

Realizing this, Yato felt both amused and exasperated.

No wonder he felt the attack was much weaker than he had imagined, giving the impression that it still had some strength left. Now it seems that it was clear that it was holding back some strength to guard against its left hand hidden behind its waist.

Otherwise, if they really went all out to attack the open space on their left side, they wouldn't be able to defend so easily and would have to use their left arm as a 'secondary weapon'.

...In a sense, Yato actually devised a relatively comprehensive tactic for his left arm condition, which could also overcome the influence of Jeet Kune Do's characteristics to some extent.

But expecting Duma to "take the bait" is probably going to be difficult.

"It seems we'll have to find another opportunity to test it."

Yato shook his head slightly in his heart.

Given Duma's paranoid state after being startled by his own "storm kick," anything he says will be seen as having ulterior motives.

So Yato simply loosened his guard on the left side of his body and tried to launch a counterattack.

As expected, Duma remained oblivious.

Yato stopped thinking and gradually increased the intensity of his counterattack.

In terms of skill, it cannot compare to Chu Jianquan.

In terms of physique, he is not as good as Wu Hori.

They look ridiculously strong, but it's mostly fat.

Such an opponent...

and many more.

Fat?

Yato narrowed his eyes, and suddenly seized the moment when his opponent's movements were too exaggerated. He moved his waist and stance in perfect unison, lunging close to the opponent and delivering a short-range hammer blow to the face.

The backfist (hanging hammer) is one of the most unpredictable striking techniques. Because it is fast, accurate, and unpredictable, it is not easy for the opponent to detect.
