National Destiny: Starting with a gender-swapped role as Artoria

"Hey kid, can you stop spamming the comments?! Can't you be serious?!"

"That's Yujiro Hanma from Japan?! Holy crap! That's incredible! Didn't he take lightning bolts without any problems?!"

"This guy is Yujiro Hanma?! Holy crap! Does that mean our country also has Shi Hao?! Xiao Yan? Are you kidding me?!"

"Wow... I didn't even realize it in the comics, but his muscles are just too exaggerated... How low is his body fat percentage...?"

"Who's this redhead? His arrogant attitude is just so annoying!"

"Yuanhe 2..."

—You have been banned—

"Hahahaha! Good riddance! You little brat, get the hell out of this live stream!"

The next second, the director switched the camera again.

The screen froze on a man with a face as beautiful as a woman's, and a beauty mark on the corner of his mouth.

The world's strongest high school student! And also the son of the strongest creature, Yujiro Hanma!

Baki Hanma!

"Holy crap... I knew this guy was coming, after all, even Yujiro Hanma showed up."

"Who is this guy? Can someone explain?"

"Is this guy a high school student? Is he as strong as his dad? Why is he dressed like a high school student?"

Sakura Country

"Our luck is incredible! Yujiro Hanma and Baki Hanma! The strongest father and son duo in the world!"

"Yes! That way, we won't be afraid of any missions that arise during this national war!"

"Go for it! The strongest father and son duo! Represent Japan and crush China! I've been wanting to get rid of them for a long time!"

The moment that comment appeared, the live stream screen went silent...

Something in this country has been torn apart, revealing its most authentic side.

"Yes, yes! Blow up the Celestial Empire! Let them falsely accuse us of conducting those poison gas experiments!"

"We request that the strongest father and son represent Japan! Let's wipe out all the Chinese! And reclaim the Diaoyu Islands that rightfully belong to us!"

"Crush the Celestial Empire!"

"Crush the Celestial Empire!"

................................................

In an instant, the entire screen was filled with this slogan.

"Hey! You guys! These are all facts! Why won't you admit it!"

A very abrupt barrage of comments appeared at this moment, but was quickly submerged.

Kato Megumi sat at her computer desk, sighed, and turned off the computer.

------

The father and son, the strongest of them, were unaware that the Sakura Kingdom had already made them their spiritual symbols, waiting for them to crush the Celestial Empire.

Yujiro Hanma glanced at Baki Hanma beside him, ignored him, and walked straight towards another part of the Starry Sky Forest.

Baki Hanma didn't say anything; he didn't even dare to offer any opinions, because Yujiro's expression was different from usual.

It was a look of longing, a gaze that sensed the strength of the powerful.

The blood of Fan Ma is stirring.

Baki sensed it too, but he didn't dare to compete with Yujiro and simply followed silently behind.

"Speaking of which, this place is really strange..."

As Baki muttered to himself, he suddenly noticed the grass beside him rustling, which caught his attention and made him pause for a moment, momentarily lost in thought.

And in that instant, Yujiro in front of him disappeared.

Lost it.

He gave a helpless, bitter smile, stopped chasing, and walked towards the bushes.

--------

A runner who never stops. Running forward relentlessly, ignoring all obstacles.

Closer! Closer!

Yujiro's face couldn't hide his excitement!

In his hotel room in Japan, he saw the news on television and learned that he had been selected to represent Japan in the competition.

In fact, he didn't care at all.

He felt that the country of Sakura was too weak, and that the weak were not worth mentioning.

A weak nation composed of weak people has nothing to do with its own destiny.

But things are different now!

Upon being teleported to this forest, he immediately sensed the aura of a powerful being!

The rock blocking his way was too big! He smashed it aside! The trees were too dense! So she swung her hand in a chop!

Just like a real blade!

Using only his bare hands, he sliced ​​through massive trees in an instant!

Finally, Yujiro met that person!

"Ok?"

But when he saw the person who made his blood boil, he was stunned for a moment.

It's actually a woman?

------

Sakura country.

"Oh my god! The world's strongest man really did sense our call?! He actually came straight to the side of the Celestial Empire's representatives!"

"Smash them! Smash the representatives of the Celestial Empire! Slap them in the face!"

"A transgender person! A woman! How could she possibly be a match for the world's strongest creature! This is the representative of our Sakura Country!"

"Take back everything that belongs to us! In the true history, we are a friendly nation! We were the first to discover the Diaoyu Islands!"

"Go! Our spiritual representative! Mr. Yujiro Hanma!"

------

Wu Yue turned his head and glanced at Hanma Yujiro, and frowned when he found him looking at him.

Yujiro Hanma? The representative of Japan? What a coincidence, I happen to be the representative of China.

What a small world...

Chapter Seven: The Attitudes of the Strongest! The World's Strongest Woman!

Wu Yue turned his head and saw a tall, red-haired man with a muscular build, wearing a martial arts uniform, looking at him.

His face showed surprise, no, more accurately, excitement.

He looked very excited.

"Do you need help?"

Chao Mu'ai suddenly spoke up, and Wu Yue turned to look at her upon hearing this.

"No thanks."

------

"Damn it! Stop pretending to be aloof now! The guy on the other end is the strongest man in the world! Are you kidding me?!"

"Holy crap! I'm about to get beaten up!"

"Those damn Japanese are so lucky! And speaking of which, I don't even know who our representative is!"

"Huh? Does Yujiro search the world for powerful women he fancys and then forcibly leave behind offspring? Huh? What do you guys think...?"

"Holy crap! You're disgusting upstairs! This is a war that determines the fate of the nation! Damn it!"

"Waaah... This seems a bit risky... Although this guy named Wu Yue cosplayed as Artoria after the gender swap, does he... does he have Artoria's strength?"

"Speaking of which, isn't anyone talking about that girl with long, straight black hair named Shio Mu Ai? Her expression never changes; she's always so aloof. Usually, people who are suddenly teleported would be nervous, right?"
