Super Fighting Tokyo

Chapter 36 I Don't Want to Lose (Third Update!)

“呜，嘎——！”

Maruk gasped for breath, letting out low growls as saliva dribbled from the corner of his mouth, mixed with streaks of bright red blood.

How...how can one live?

Upon hearing Shiramu Cheng's words, flashbacks of Q-Daro's teachings to him kept replaying in his mind.

{Maruk, kill!}
{All you need to do is kill people, don't think about anything else!}
{Tsk, this Maruk is such a waste, we should hurry up and call Rodem out...}
"..."

As the scenes from the past flashed before his eyes, Maruk became particularly sensitive to the question of "how to live," and his emotions instantly surged.

"Liar...liar..."

Maruk glared forward, staring intently at Bai Mucheng, and growled, "You and Father are both... liars, you're both bad people!"

Swish!
Maruk leaped forward and kicked out with all his might.

Bai Mucheng had anticipated this, so he stood still with his left arm in front and lowered, and his right arm raised behind, in a fixed posture.

"Blocking techniques" – also known as "defense techniques" – are techniques used to counter specific moves, specifically designed for defensive counter-attacks.

Zangief's fighting style is a fusion of Russian wrestling and American wrestling. He uses his indestructible waist, legs and upper body to block attacks and is a master of parrying techniques!
【Zangirf Tundra Storm】!
Shiraki clasped his arms together to block Maruk's kick, like a crocodile biting its prey, and then flipped over and slammed Maruk to the ground.

boom!
In an instant, the entire building seemed to tremble.

Maruk lay sprawled on the ground, blood splattered around his face, his entire body trembling unnaturally.

Bai Mucheng crouched down as he was about to pounce and chase after the attacker when he suddenly felt a chill and immediately stood up and leaned back to dodge.

The next moment——

Swish!
Maruk braced himself with his arms and pushed his legs backward, almost grazing Bai Mucheng's nose and scraping off a layer of skin.

"……hiss!"

Shiraki took a few steps back, touched the tip of his nose with his finger, and felt the blood beads seeping from the subcutaneous tissue, but his eyes could not leave Maruk.

Was that Maruk? Or Rodham?

Bai Mucheng could not be determined either.

At this moment, the man before him was in a state of extreme confusion, one eyeball twitching violently, while the other eyeball was shedding tears of blood.

"Kill...kill people!"

"No! Murder is... wrong!"

His tone shifted between violent and childish in quick succession, causing Maruk's facial muscles to contort in extreme pain.

"I want to kill someone!"

Ultimately, as Maruk hesitated, Rodm's personality gained a slight advantage, and he pounced forward like a wild beast, heading straight for Shiraki.

However, Rodham did not expect that Shiraki Cheng would jump almost simultaneously, leaping head-on towards him.

In that instant, Shiraki Cheng and Rodham were almost face to face!
Without the distance to charge up, Rodm's superhuman strength couldn't be fully utilized, while Shiraki had found a good opportunity to use a throwing technique.

Swish!
Shiramu Cheng reached out his left hand, grabbed Rodham by the back of the neck, and pressed him down.

At the same time, he pulled his right arm back to gather strength, aimed at Rodm's head, and struck upwards with all his might.

boom!
Rodm was sent flying upwards by this powerful arm strike.

Shiramu Cheng immediately adjusted his movements, hooked Rodham's thigh, and then used his limbs to lock him firmly. Using the residual inertia, he spun Rodham's head and slammed it to the ground.

[Zangirf Borscht Explosion]!
Boom!
A dull hum echoed inside the building.

This move is as powerful as a finishing move, capable of killing an ordinary person on the spot!
But as soon as Bai Mucheng relaxed his grip and looked down, he saw Rodm using his left hand to protect his head while simultaneously throwing a right straight punch from below.

boom!
Bai Mucheng took the blow squarely to the chest; his ribs were probably fractured, and his heart even stopped for a moment.

"Well--!"

A sweet taste welled up in his throat, but Bai Mucheng forced it down.

He doesn't have time to cough up blood right now!

Rodham finally found an opportunity, switching from defense to offense, and got up to unleash a series of heavy punches on Shiramoto.

boom!boom!boom!boom!
Bai Mucheng raised his arms to defend and block, his eyes darting around, his mind racing, searching for any opportunity to strike.

Seeing Shiramu Cheng retreating step by step, perhaps about to be "killed" by him, his immature personality resurfaced and suppressed Rodham.

"I...am very strong!"

Maruk's voice came through.

He couldn't stop crying, putting up a difficult and painful resistance, "I'm strong, but...I—I don't want to kill!"

"……OK!"

Amidst a hail of punches, Shiramu seized a brief opening and, while responding to Maruk, delivered a lightning-fast mid-section front kick.

[A counterattack of fighting spirit: a reverse Russian kick!]
boom!
Maruk was kicked back half a step.

Shiraki slashed horizontally with his hand, which Maruk barely managed to block. However, Maruk had no time to react to the second and third slashes that followed, and was struck solidly.

"pain……"

Maruk instinctively retreated, but Shiramu Cheng didn't give him a chance to create distance.

Ode!
[Russian Double Palm Strike Unleashed!]
Two karate chopes struck Maruk's upper arms, one on the left and one on the right, causing both arms to go numb and rendering him unable to lift them for a moment.

“Being strong doesn’t necessarily mean killing people, and it’s certainly not a bad thing.”

Bai Mucheng finally had a chance to catch his breath, so he spoke while spitting out the blood that had been pressing on his throat. "The 'strength' you speak of is just a deception that Q-Darlang forced upon you. You have never experienced true strength!"

"Try to understand it again!"

Shiraki Cheng spread his arms and gestured to Maruk behind him.

Maruk looked over and saw that, at some point, Baku, Shigeru Akagi, Takaomi Kaji, and even Koichi Yagyou had all come to the sixth floor to watch his battle with Shiraki.

The look in those people's eyes was different from that of Q-Lang.

Q-Lang only wanted to satisfy his own desires, while the eyes of those people were sincere, wanting to witness the outcome of this battle.

In a daze, Maruk felt that something had filled his empty heart, giving him a sense of peace he had never felt before.

Rodham's personality was completely suppressed and disappeared without a trace.

“Maruk…I don’t know…”

Maruk paused, then clenched his fist and looked at Shiramu Cheng with slight nervousness. "But if you ask what Maruk wants to do now—Maruk wants to beat big brother!"

"Great, fantastic!"

Bai Mucheng spreads his ten fingers, returning to the Zangief-style stance, and his breath gradually becomes steady.

coming!

Swish!
With little energy left, the two charged at each other simultaneously.

Maruk clenched his fist, about to throw a powerful punch, but his movement suddenly froze in mid-air.

Looking down, Shiramu Cheng saw that he had stomped on Maruk's instep.

Zangief Energy Stomping!
"?!"

Maruk felt a sudden gust of wind rush in front of him, and had no time to react.

Bai Mucheng suddenly opened his arms and hugged Maruk, pushing him backward until he almost completely lost control of his body.

"Maruk doesn't want to lose!"

Maruk tried to steady himself. "The villain who killed me is Rodham, but Maruk wants to atone for his sins. Maruk wants to win this opportunity!"

Bai Mucheng gritted his teeth, his eyes blazing with fury, "But you don't have a chance!"

“Yes!” Maruk retorted loudly.

The two men clashed with their superhuman strength, but Maruk ultimately lost the initiative and was pushed backward by Shiraki, heading straight for the window.

Whoops!

Before anyone could react, Shiraki Cheng and Maruk climbed out of the window and fell off the building.

This is the sixth floor!

Falling from a height of about 20 meters, even the inhuman "modified soldier" Rodm would need to use a steel cable to cushion the fall; an ordinary person would certainly die!

"Hey, do those two really need to fight to the death?"

Kaji Takaomi exclaimed in surprise, "Maruk clearly wanted to atone for his sins, so why is Mr. Shiraki arguing against it and saying that he shouldn't be given that chance?"

Meanwhile, Akagi Shigeru, Yagyou, and Madarame Baku passed by Kaji Takaomi one after another and walked towards the window.

"The reason is simple, Kaji."

Baku patted Kaji Takaomi on the shoulder, holding a dried plum in his hand, gesturing for Kaji Takaomi to come and see.

Kaji Takaomi jogged to the window and peered out from the edge.

Upon seeing this, Kaji Takaomi was immediately delighted.

Shiraki and Maruk did indeed fall from the building, but a car had been parked downstairs at some point, and the two of them landed right on it, smashing the car's roof to pieces.

Although they were far away, it was still possible to make out that Shiramu Cheng and Maruk were lying on their backs, both panting heavily, but not in any danger of dying.

Beside the car, a short-haired girl stood with her arms crossed.

Did she drive the car here?

"She must have been Xiao Cheng's support sniper, who drove the car over in advance as a buffer against the fall."

Baku tore open the package of dried plums in his hand and chuckled softly, "He said he wouldn't give Maruk a chance, but he just wanted Maruk to fight with all his might so he could see if he could win..."

"Xiao Cheng is a liar too!"

Baku ate a dried plum and kindly shared one with Shigeru Akagi and Takaomi Kaji.

……

……

Downstairs, Shiramu and Maruk lay on their backs on the roof of a wrecked car.
"Hahaha!"

Maruk smiled innocently at the thought that he had a chance to atone for his sins.

"Hahaha……"

The thought of owing Wu Fengshui another luxury car, compounding his debt, made Bai Mucheng laugh in a reckless abandon.

In short—it was really fun to fight, wasn't that good?
In the distance, the sun slowly rises, casting its warm light.

The long night is finally over.
