My Anime Girlfriends

Looking at the laughing Yagami, Dong Tian patted the angry Chizuru on the shoulder, signaling her to calm down, before speaking: "Iori, do you know why I had to pay the price of sleeping for more than a year to defeat Gonis?"

"I don't want to know about that kind of thing." Hearing Dong Tian say this, Yagami's eyes revealed a hint of unwillingness to be outdone. His left hand, which was in his pocket, was clenched tightly together, his nails digging deep into his palm. Recalling how easily the storm had defeated him, he felt a surge of resentment, but he still spoke with a cold smile.

"Immortality!" Dong Tian uttered four words calmly.

"What?" Upon hearing these four words, Yagami's gaze sharpened, and he asked.

"I forgot to tell you, the reason the Orochi clan is so powerful is because they possess immense strength and a body that humans lack. Dark power and immortality." Perhaps due to maintaining a kneeling posture for a long time, Dong Tian stretched slightly and spoke casually.

"Dark power... immortality?" Yagami murmured, repeating the eight words. A look of interest flashed in his eyes, and a smile appeared on his face, as if he were seeing a bright future.

"Well! Let me explain briefly! Dark power is a power that surpasses 'Absolute Territory,' an extremely dark and violent power. And 'immortality' is a unique ability of the Orochi clan. Just as its name suggests, they possess immortal bodies, and there is no other way to deal with them except by sealing them away." Dong Tian, ​​of course, knew what Yagami was planning, and smiled slightly as he spoke.

"Hahaha... Dark power... Immortality, how interesting!" After hearing Dong Tian's explanation, Yagami couldn't help but burst into laughter. He turned back to look at Dong Tian and Kagura Chizuru and muttered to himself, his eyes revealing a strong sense of possessiveness, as if he wanted to possess everything.

“That’s true!” Dong Tian immediately said with a smile, his eyes narrowed.

Chapter 385 Competition Venue

In the Ito mountain forest region of Japan, numerous peaks of varying sizes rise majestically. One of the larger peaks stands out because of a man-made road that leads up the mountain. Following this road, you'll find a massive, state-of-the-art complex—a large grandstand. In the center of this grandstand is a large arena bearing the KOF96 logo. This is the venue for the semi-finals, finals, and subsequent matches.

The venue was incredibly well-equipped. Besides the arena and stands accommodating nearly 10,000 people, there was also a five-star hotel building. Since the event lasted several days, this provided ample space for guests to watch the matches, and the accommodations for the participants were also arranged. Its scale was estimated to have cost over 100 million, but for a building intended only for a one-time event, it was an act of reckless disregard for cost and return. On the top floor, in a vast, state-of-the-art hall, Dong Tian, ​​through the enormous floor-to-ceiling windows, took in the entire venue. With a hint of surprise, he said to Kagura Manki, "Wow… I never imagined that little turtle could be so formidable when she got serious! To actually build such a competition venue in a place like this!" He was astonished that Kagura Manki had managed to construct such a large-scale competition venue in such a remote location within just one month.

"You're still as irresponsible as ever. I thought you'd be better after you got married." After Dong Tian finished speaking, Kagura Manki stepped forward and looked at Dong Tian standing by the window, saying calmly.

"Some things can't be changed just like that." Hearing Kagura Manki say this, Dong Tian shrugged helplessly and said with a smile. He didn't have much more to say to Kagura Manki.

"The preliminary rounds are over, and the semi-finals are in three days. I hope nothing bad happens." Kagura Manki looked out the window, recalling the storm that suddenly appeared at the preliminary round venue and caused widespread destruction a while ago. A trace of worry appeared on her face as she murmured.

"Don't worry, I know Gounice. He wouldn't do something so pointless." Dong Tian understood what Kagura Wanmei meant and said in a reassuring tone. Then, as if remembering something, he asked somewhat urgently, "By the way, Wanmei, could you tell me the schedule for the women's fighting team?"

"The schedule of the female fighter team?" Kagura Manki asked, looking at Dong Tian's anxious face with a puzzled expression.

"Yes, because I want to give Xiaowu a surprise." Dong Tian immediately smiled and nodded.

"I understand." Hearing Dong Tian say this, Kagura Manki finally guessed what Dong Tian was up to. She couldn't help but smile, walked to the computer in the room, and quickly clicked a few keys on the keyboard. The schedule of the female fighter team was immediately displayed on a huge electronic screen in the room.

"Thank you, Wan Gui. I'll treat you to tea sometime." With his incredibly powerful memory, Dong Tian had memorized the schedule of the female fighter team in just a few seconds. A smile immediately appeared on his face as he said this to Kagura Wan Gui before hurriedly running off.

Watching Dong Tian rush out of the room, Kagura Manki glanced at the women's fighter team's schedule, sighed slightly, and smiled helplessly. According to the schedule, the women's fighter team's plane would arrive at Tokyo Metropolitan Airport in three hours.

Less than a minute after Dong Tian left, Kagura Chizuru, dressed identically to Kagura Manki, entered the room. Seeing that only Kagura Manki remained, she asked somewhat sadly, "Sister, has he... left?"

"Yes, I just left. Chizuru, have you made arrangements with Iori Yagami?" Kagura Manki nodded slightly when she saw her sister's expression, and quickly walked up to her to ask.

"Everything has been arranged. Now we just need to wait for the Kusanagi family to arrive, and then we can collect all three sacred treasures."

Meanwhile, upon learning that Mai Shiranui would arrive in Japan in three hours, Dong Tian decided to surprise her, feeling he had neglected her somewhat. Three hours later, Dong Tian, ​​dressed in a white suit and holding a bouquet of vibrant red roses, stood in a VIP lounge at the airport, looking every bit the nobleman from a manga. His face beamed with a charming smile. Since Mai Shiranui and her party were traveling on a private jet provided by the Kagura Group, he didn't need to wait for them in the bustling lobby.

Less than ten minutes later, led by staff, Mai Shiranui, King, and Kasumi Toudou each carried a suitcase. Mai Shiranui was wearing a white long-sleeved T-shirt, a sleeveless leather jacket, and black leggings that accentuated her figure. King was dressed in her usual attire. Kasumi Toudou, perhaps influenced by Mai Shiranui, was dressed quite differently from her previous conservative style, wearing a short-sleeved pink T-shirt and super-short denim shorts that revealed her beautiful curves, giving her a more youthful and charming appearance. Upon seeing the three women enter, Dong Tian quickly stepped forward and presented Mai Shiranui with a bouquet of vibrant roses, saying, "These are for you, Mai."

"Brother Tian, ​​what are you doing here?" As soon as Mai Shiranui entered the room, she saw Dong Tian handing her flowers and immediately showed a look of surprise on her face. She threw down her luggage and rushed into his arms, asking happily.

"I came because I knew my dearest wife was coming here." Dong Tian smiled as he looked at Mai Shiranui's joyful expression, gave her a deep kiss on her red lips, and said.

"Brother Tian, ​​you're all talk, but you haven't come to see me for so long." Hearing Dong Tian say this, a hint of sweetness flashed in Mai Shiranui's eyes, but her cheeks puffed up as she said 'angrily'.

"I'm sorry, Mai, I've been held up by other things lately. I promise it won't happen again." Seeing Mai's reaction, Dong Tian quickly apologized, then released her and smiled at King and Kasumi, saying, "King, Kasumi, how have you been lately?"

"I'm fine, Brother Dong!" Despite having changed her appearance, Kasumi Todo's personality hadn't changed at all. She immediately gave a sweet smile and answered politely.

"Isn't it obvious?" King replied with a faint smile and a flat tone.

"Hehe... The competition will last for three days. During these three days, you will have to stay at the hotel arranged by the Kagura Group." Seeing the two women's reactions, Dong Tian realized that he had asked a bit too much. He forced a laugh to cover up his embarrassment and explained the current situation of the three women.

"Are we going to stay in the hotel for three days? Won't that be too boring?" Upon hearing Dong Tian's words, the usually restless Mai Shiranui immediately showed a dissatisfied expression and complained.

"Don't worry! I've already made all the arrangements. I'll take you all on a tour of Tokyo over these three days. Consider it punishment for not visiting you all this month." Dong Tian immediately smiled and gently pinched Mai Shiranui's cheek before saying this.

"Really? I knew Brother Tian was the best."

"Alright, now you all go back to the hotel and rest. Six hours later, let's go out and explore Tokyo's night markets together!"

Chapter 386 A Trip to Tokyo

Tokyo at night presents a dazzling and vibrant scene. The entire city is ablaze with lights, and traffic flows endlessly. Even from space, the brightly lit city is a sight to behold. Because it's summer, the streets are bustling with people, especially young people with passionate hearts out and about. The young women are dressed provocatively, in low-cut tops, miniskirts, and super short skirts, creating a dazzling spectacle. They display their youthful assets to attract attention, hoping for a 'beautiful' encounter on this night.

"This is Tokyo at night, it's definitely different from the daytime." Dong Tian, ​​dressed in casual clothes, walked hundreds of meters in the air with Mai Shiranui, who was dressed casually, looking down at everything in Tokyo's streets and said with a smile.

"That being said, is this what you call strolling through the night market?" After Dong Tian finished speaking, King, who was walking hand in hand with Xiang Cheng behind him, couldn't help but ask. At this moment, although King was very surprised to be able to walk in the air, he also felt a little uneasy.

"Of course not, I just think that looking at things from a different perspective can give you a different feeling. If you're tired of it, we can go down now." Dong Tian smiled as he looked at the slightly uneasy expression on King's face and glanced at the excited Kasumi out of the corner of his eye.

Hearing Dong Tian say this, Toudou Kasumi hurriedly pleaded, "Brother Dong, can you wait a bit before going down? Your superpower is amazing! This is the first time in my life that I've stood in the air, and it's such a pity that I have to go down like this."

"Then stay a little longer, but don't leave within ten meters of me." Dong Tian smiled slightly, glanced at Mai Shiranui who was holding his hand, and said.

"Okay!" Seeing Dong Tian agree, Xiang Cheng immediately nodded happily. She hurriedly took out a state-of-the-art digital camera from her small black bag and kept taking pictures of the scenery below. If she wanted to go somewhere, she would ask Dong Tian to go there; otherwise, it would be useless for her to go.

Half an hour later, in order to land unnoticed, Dong Tian, ​​standing high in the air, created a gust of wind that lifted the miniskirts of the girls on the street. Taking advantage of the chaos and the girls' screams, he led the three girls into the crowd.

"Brother Tian, ​​you actually did it this way." Having just regained her footing, Mai Shiranui immediately placed her hand on Dong Tian's waist, speaking with a hint of jealousy. Clearly, she was very unhappy with Dong Tian's actions in accommodating his 'wolf' friends.

“Yes! Brother Dong, how could you do this?” Kasumi also began to speak up for her female comrades.

"Yeah, that's a really low-level approach." King nodded in agreement, turning his face away with a contemptuous expression.

"Uh…"

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

In the bustling street, a dozen thugs dressed in punk attire surrounded a man on the roadside. Pedestrians either quickly made way and ran away or stood at a distance waiting for the show to begin. Among the many onlookers were Mai Shiranui, King, and Kasumi, who had come with Dong Tian. All three stood in the crowd with smiles on their faces, eagerly anticipating Dong Tian's reaction as he was surrounded by thugs.

At this moment, Dong Tian was in a terrible mood. He felt that he had hardly left the King of Fighters world since returning, and he had finally managed to bring Mai Shiranui out for some fun, only to be disturbed by these thugs. The reason? He was seen shopping with three beautiful women, one of whom looked very similar to the popular 'Mai Shiranui' who had been frequently appearing on television recently. So, these thugs were now determined to teach him a lesson and had no intention of letting him leave unscathed.

"Hey... I'm talking to you! Did you hear me?" The leader of the thugs, named Feng Jianyiren, grabbed Dong Tian by the collar and asked fiercely. He despised the person in front of him who was so 'frightened' that he didn't dare to say a word. How could such a person be worthy of someone who was so 'similar' to Miss Shiranui Mai?

"You seem to have angered me." Dong Tian said slowly, his collar being grabbed. A sharp glint suddenly flashed in his half-closed eyes, causing Feng Jianyi to be startled. She released her right hand from Dong Tian's collar and involuntarily took a step back.

"Ugh...you bastard, what did you say?" Realizing her loss of composure, Feng Jianyi hurriedly grabbed Dong Tian again, her expression turning ferocious as she angrily rebuked him.

"Die, you piece of trash..." Dong Tian didn't even bother to answer him. He simply reached out and grabbed the hand that was gripping his collar, then twisted it gently.

With a crisp cracking sound, Feng Jianyi's previously ferocious expression turned to disbelief. How could his elbow be twisted like a pretzel? The intense pain pulled him back to reality. He involuntarily used his other hand to support his wrist and howled, "Ugh... bastard... bastard, kill... kill him..."

"Die!" Dong Tian looked at Feng Jianyi, whose face had turned pale, took two steps in front of him, put his hand next to his ear, and swiftly pushed him aside. Feng Jianyi flew out like a cannonball, crashing through the glass of a clothing store and rolling with the mannequins, his body becoming a bloody mess.

Things happened so fast that by the time the surrounding thugs reacted, Dong Tian had already made his move. After taking down the leader, he moved swiftly, instantly appearing in front of two of the others. Just as they were about to attack, he pressed his body against them, placed his palm on their chins, and pushed them upwards. The two men were thrown backwards, and the sound of teeth breaking echoed. Having just dealt with these two, Dong Tian made a strange turn, appearing behind a thug who was about to attack him from behind. He grabbed the thug's shoulder from behind and, with a powerful swing of his arms, flung him more than four meters into the air—a simplified version of Goro Daimon's throwing technique, "Tenchi Kaigen" (Heaven and Earth Reversal). Cleanly and efficiently taking down three people in quick succession, Dong Tian's figure flashed, grabbing several opponents and then instantly throwing them away in the most energy-efficient way possible. All the techniques he used were judo throwing techniques. In less than a minute, all the thugs who were once full of energy were lying on the ground. The lightest injuries were dislocated and broken bones, while the more serious ones had shattered bones.

However, the trouble didn't seem to be so easy to resolve. Just as Dong Tian was about to turn around and leave, a commotion broke out among the crowd of onlookers. Then, dozens of tall, burly middle-aged men in black suits rushed into the crowd. They all had fierce faces and exuded a menacing aura, suggesting they belonged to some kind of gang.

Among the dozens of people, a man with a rather gloomy appearance and a black dragon tattoo on his left cheek slowly stepped forward. He glanced at the dozen or so people who were beaten and could only groan in pain on the ground, frowned slightly, and the dragon tattoo on his face seemed to come alive as it twitched rapidly. He slowly turned his face to Dong Tian, ​​who was standing among the wounded. His gaze lingered on Dong Tian's handsome face for a moment, and then a hint of fear flashed in his originally gloomy eyes. His body involuntarily shivered, and he hurriedly walked up to Dong Tian and asked in a respectful tone, "Excuse me, are you Mr. Dong Tian?"

"Who are you?" Dong Tian asked in a calm tone, looking at the middle-aged man in front of him who was being very respectful.

"I'm very sorry, Mr. Dong Tian, ​​for causing you trouble. Yagyu Ichiro is my master. Three years ago, Mr. Dong Tian had a duel with him at the dojo." Seeing that Dong Tian did not deny it, the middle-aged man felt a chill run down his spine and hurriedly apologized, revealing his affiliation.

Dong Tian quickly reviewed his memories and finally recalled that three years ago in this world, out of boredom, he had taken down all the gangsters in Tokyo. Coincidentally, he had rescued a gang heir, Yagyu Ichiro. Since the person in front of him was Yagyu Ichiro's man, he might as well let him handle unnecessary trouble. So he said, "Yagyu? I see. I want to continue shopping. Help me move this trash."

"Yes, it's my pleasure to serve you." The middle-aged man immediately bowed and said, then ordered his men to start cleaning up the dozen or so huge pieces of trash.

Just as dozens of burly men were helping Dong Tian clean up the mess, Dong Tian stood before Mai Shiranui and the other two girls, saying with a helpless expression, "Mai, King, Kasumi, let's go! Let's find another place!"

"Okay!"

Chapter 387 Swimming Competition

The Tokyo Grand Hotel, the largest hotel in Tokyo, is also one of the properties of the Kagura family. Overnight, nearly thirty world-class fighters checked into the hotel: 2 from the Heavenly Team, 3 from the Kusanagi Team, 3 from the Heavenly Team, 3 from the Dragon Tiger Team, 3 from the Female Fighters Team, 3 from the Psychic Team, 3 from the Korean Team, 3 from the Ikari Team, and 3 from the Garou Team, totaling 26. Fortunately, everyone was very self-disciplined, training in their rooms and showing no intention of sparring before the competition, conserving their energy in anticipation of the tournament starting in two days.

Inside the room belonging to the "Gods Team," Dong Tian sat cross-legged on the sofa as usual, but his expression was somewhat solemn. This solemnity stemmed from Iori Yagami, who was sitting at the long table, constantly playing with his purple flame. Because, at this moment, Iori might very well instantly break through the ceiling and jump upstairs to engage in a world war with Kyo Kusanagi, who lived upstairs. If that happened, this Tokyo Grand Hotel would likely cease to exist. Last time, because it was Dong Tian's wedding, both Iori and Kyo Kusanagi held back, and because Kagura Manki announced the KOF '96 tournament, they missed each other. This time, the two were only separated by a wall; the possibility of them fighting was terrifyingly high.

Upstairs, Kyo Kusanagi leaned against the floor-to-ceiling window with a smile on his face, the crimson flame in his hand flickering, his face glowing red. The good-natured Goro Daimon sat upright on the sofa, while the restless Benimaru Nikaido kicked a black sandbag with barely perceptible speed, seemingly bored.

Time passed slowly. Suddenly, Yagami, who had been sitting at the long table, put away the purple flames in his hand, jumped off the table, and walked towards the exit. A 'click' sounded as the door opened; Yagami had already pulled it open. "Want to go out?" Dong Tian, ​​who seemed to be resting with his eyes closed, asked calmly.

“Swimming!” Kyo Kusanagi turned around, looked at the puzzled Daimon and Benimaru, and said with a hearty smile.

"Swimming? Kyo, I'll go with you." When Benimaru heard Kyo Kusanagi say this, he remembered the gorgeous swimming pool in the Tokyo hotel. Instantly, countless beautiful girls in swimsuits appeared in his mind, and his wicked thoughts immediately came to mind. He kicked the sandbag he had been kicking for a long time and burst it. He leaped to Kyo Kusanagi's side and said with a smile.

"Swimming? I'll go too." Hearing Yagami say that, Dong Tian was immediately lost in memories. Two images gradually appeared in his mind: one was Zhao Yingkong with a baby face and big breasts wearing a black swimsuit, and the other was Chidori Kaname wearing a white swimsuit. These were some of the few times he had gone swimming. He couldn't help but smile and said.

The Grand Tokyo Hotel boasts many unexpected amenities, including its swimming pool. The pool is incredibly spacious and surrounded by Hawaiian-like scenery. Given that it's August, the height of summer, everyone staying at the hotel is eager to enjoy the pool. Moreover, the pool isn't just open to hotel guests; you can also purchase a ticket to enter and experience it.

"It feels like I'm in Hawaii!" Looking at the swimming pool spanning tens of thousands of square meters, the Hawaiian-inspired plants surrounding it, and the countless women in swimsuits, Dong Tian, ​​now dressed in the iconic attire of black shorts and with his long hair flowing, couldn't help but smile charmingly and remark with a touch of awe. He then walked with Yagami into the crowd, ready to relax.

Ten minutes later, countless girls in swimsuits stood at the edge of the pool, their eyes fixed on the four men, their gazes filled with adoration.

"Wow... isn't that Iori Yagami?"

"real!"

"What a great figure!"

"The person next to him looks like Dong Tian!"

"He's so handsome!"

"That's a married man, isn't he?"

"And Kyo Kusanagi."

"Benimaru! So cool!"

"You have a great figure!"

Whether it's the combination of Yagami and Dong Tian, ​​or the combination of Benimaru and Kyo Kusanagi, they are both very eye-catching. In addition, the four handsome men have changed out of their signature clothes and are standing by the pool in shorts, showing off their muscular bodies without an ounce of fat. No wonder they attract so much attention.

A cool breeze blew in his face. While marveling at the variety of activities in the swimming pool, Dong Tian casually untied a red string from his wrist, tied his long hair that was fluttering in the wind behind his head, and then looked up at the pool, which was more than 100 meters in diameter. He smiled and said to the three people standing next to him, "An, Kyo, Benimaru, what do you guys want to do?"

"No breathing, 10 laps!" Benimaru smiled slightly, struck a pose, and said with a laugh. One lap of this pool is nearly 600 meters, so 10 laps is 6000 meters. Most people would have collapsed long ago.

"Ten minutes," Yagami said calmly.

“Agreed.” Kyo Kusanagi nodded with a smile.

Looking at his three men, Dong Tian's smile widened, and he said, "10 minutes, 600 seconds? Let's go big! 500 seconds will do."

Hearing Dong Tian say this, Yagami, Kyo Kusanagi, and Benimaru were taken aback for a moment, then nodded in unison and said, "Okay." 500 seconds. Swimming 10 laps in 600 seconds without breathing was already a struggle, and now with 100 seconds less, they would probably have to swim like crazy. Their competitive nature made the three of them nod in agreement.

Seeing the three nod in agreement, Dong Tian pulled out a whistle and a stopwatch from somewhere, revealing a smug look on his face, and said, "Alright, I'll start the timer, you can get ready to begin."

"What? You're not going to compete?" Benimaru asked, his mouth agape.
