My Anime Girlfriends

Upon hearing Benimaru's words, Kyo Kusanagi immediately smiled and nodded, saying, "Yes! I really hope he'll still intervene then! Daimon, you think so too, right?"

Goro Daimon glanced at me on the field and said with a serious expression, "Hmm! I've wanted to fight him for a long time. I really want to know what kind of person this genius that the head of the family has been praising is."

Upon hearing Daimon's reply, Kyo Kusanagi immediately laughed and said, "Genius? That word doesn't apply to him. If someone who can use the same technique as my father the moment he uses it can only be described as a 'genius,' then I am nothing!"

Upon hearing Kyo's words, Benimaru Nikaido, who knew Kyo's strength well, immediately laughed and said, "Kyo, you must be joking! Although he defeated me three years ago, I admit he is very strong. However, I simply cannot believe that he can use the same technique immediately after you use it once. After all, the 'Kusanagi Fist' is something only members of your Kusanagi family can perform."

Kyo Kusanagi laughed, "He also has flames, but he just doesn't like to use them. The fact that you don't know he has flames only proves that you, Benimaru, haven't yet given him the ability to use them!"

When Nikaido Benimaru heard what Kusanagi Kyo said, his face showed complete surprise. Meanwhile, the match on the field had already begun, with me and Clark as the two players competing.

Clark's fighting techniques mainly consist of military combat and close-range throwing techniques. Because I had fought him before and knew my strength well, he immediately launched a fierce attack. The moment the referee said "start," he rushed in front of me and threw dozens of punches in an instant. After I blocked his attack, he didn't stop and kicked dozens more times. After forcing me to take a step back, he jumped up slightly and then delivered a powerful punch. This punch instantly pierced through my chest. Clark didn't feel happy because he didn't feel like he had hit anything solid.

As he passed through my afterimage, he immediately placed one hand on the floor, performed a graceful gymnastics pose, instantly turned his body to find me standing behind him, and then kicked hard on the floor to rush up quickly, even creating a small dent in the floor that was harder than marble.

He swiftly grabbed one of my hands, and at the same time he smiled, because what was being grabbed was not my phantom but my physical body. In order to prevent me from struggling, he immediately unleashed his 'Absolute Domain' power, holding me tightly while simultaneously pushing his 'Absolute Domain' with his right hand to deliver nearly seventy punches to me in a mere second.

Even with one hand restrained, I smiled slightly and instantly unleashed the same power as Clark, attacking with the same moves and the same number of times. In an instant, countless sounds of collisions rang out between Clark and me, leaving behind countless fist shadows.

After a series of attacks, Clark immediately released his grip on my left hand and retreated, searching my surroundings for any openings. In fact, he did this not just to find my weaknesses, but mainly because the collision had slightly injured his arm, and for a certain period of time, he would not be able to make any powerful attacks with his right hand.

Looking at Clark surrounding me, I smiled slightly, my steps light, and I began to slowly circle around him, saying with a laugh, "I didn't use my full strength when we fought last time!" As I spoke, I used the 'Shadow Step' technique, and another version of myself slowly appeared on the stage, then two, three... eight versions of myself slowly moved around Clark, like beasts circling their prey, ready to charge at any moment.

Upon seeing this, the referee immediately announced into the microphone: "It's happening! The mysterious fighting technique that Dong Tian used in the Korean competition has reappeared! Is the 'Shamanic Style' heir Dong Tian using the so-called 'Clone Technique'?!"

From below the stage, Yuri asked Mai Shiranui with a curious look, "Did Brother Tian use the 'Clone Technique'? I forgot to ask last time!"

Mai Shiranui looked at Yuri and said with a smile, "It's not 'Clone Technique,' Brother Tian calls it 'Shadow Step.' Brother Tian explained it before, but it's just too difficult, I haven't learned it!"

Yuri hurriedly asked, "What? Brother Tian explained it to you? Then what exactly happened? Why are there eight Brother Tians?"

After Yuri finished speaking, Mai Shiranui looked at me on the arena and slowly said, "Brother Tian said that 'Shadow Step' is actually a high-speed movement using special footwork. At the same time, to others, it just looks like he is walking slowly. However, the footwork is too complicated. If the footwork is wrong, the Giant Technique will not achieve this effect!"

On stage, Clark, a soldier, was not afraid of the increasing number of 'enemies,' but he knew that if things continued like this, he would lose the initiative. So, he immediately rushed towards me, whom he believed was most likely to be the main force.

The instant he rushed in front of 'me', he unleashed another flurry of punches. The collision told Clark that he had succeeded; he had found 'me's' true essence. But just as he was about to unleash his strongest attack, 'me' suddenly stopped, letting his fists pass through his body. Then, the seven 'me's' behind him simultaneously shouted, "Ninja Bee!" As soon as the words left their mouths, the seven 'me's' were immediately surrounded by flames and crashed into Clark.

The onlookers only saw seven flames instantly engulf Clark, forming a huge fireball on the ring. When the fireball dissipated, all they saw was me with one hand in my pocket and the other holding the unconscious Clark, standing in the middle of the ring, with black smoke still rising from several places on Clark's body.

I glanced at Heaton in the audience, put down the Clark I was holding, and said to him with a smile, "Colonel Heaton, I think you should do it! Although they have improved a lot in recent years, they still can't meet my requirements!"

Heaton looked at my smiling face, seemingly guessing something, and slowly said, "Do you want to stop me?"

Hearing him say that, I smiled and said, "I'm not trying to stop you, just giving you advice. With your current strength, you're not capable of taking revenge on Nuga. So, like I said, if you don't want to lose your men again...!"

Heaton glanced at Clark, who was being helped off the ring by Ralph, and slowly said, "Fine, I'll fight you, but I'll still get my revenge, even if I'm all alone!" He then walked onto the ring.

Chapter 64 Instant Step and Entering the Finals

As soon as Heaton stepped into the ring, the referee immediately announced the start of the match.

As before, I immediately used 'Shadow Step', and the same scene as before appeared on the arena again, but the person surrounded by 'me' had changed to Heaton.

Standing in the middle of me, Heaton looked at one of the 'me's' and touched his blind right eye with one hand, coldly saying, "Ever since I lost it, I've been training my intuition, so...!" As he spoke, he rushed in front of one of the 'me's', his five fingers pressed together and aimed at the 'me's' throat.

"You can't fool me!" Heaton coldly uttered the remaining words. As he spoke, his attack was blocked by my hand. Because of this, 'Shadow Step' failed, leaving only him and me standing in the center of the arena.

I grabbed Heaton's right hand as he attacked and said with a smile, "When did you discover... the weakness of 'Shadow Step'?" As soon as I finished speaking, I threw a punch, and at the same time as he punched to block, I kicked out and forced Heaton away.

Having dodged my attack, Heaton, who had already jumped out of my kick's range, coldly said, "When you used it to defeat Clark, I already saw that you were using a special footwork that looked slow but was actually moving at high speed... But if it's interrupted, it will be the same as before!"

“Oh…! Is that so? And now?” I said coldly, already standing behind Heaton.

"What!" Heaton exclaimed in surprise after hearing my voice behind him.

I immediately moved in front of him and threw a punch. His superhuman instincts made him retreat to dodge my attack. However, in the instant he dodged my punch, I was already behind him and kicked him flying. The moment he flew away, I reappeared in front of him. His long-standing combat instincts made him, after losing his balance, cross his hands and draw two crescent-shaped blades of light to attack me before I could even attack.

But his attack missed, because I was already standing on the edge of the ring, but with my hands in my pockets, I didn't continue to attack him.

After regaining his footing, Heaton asked me, "Why didn't you continue attacking? In that state, if you had continued attacking, you would have already won!"

"What's the point of winning against you like that?" I smiled slightly and said when he asked me that.

After hearing what I said, Heaton remained silent for a long time, then his aura suddenly surged, and he charged forward. In that instant, I disappeared from where I had just been standing and appeared behind him. But the moment I appeared behind him, I was met with a crescent-shaped blade of light from Heaton. Blood appeared, and a wound like a knife cut appeared on my chest.

"Brother Tian (Tian)...!" Mai, Yuri, and Kyo in the distance cried out after seeing that I was injured.

On the ring, I looked at the rapidly healing wound on my chest and smiled as I slowly said to Heaton, who was several meters away with his back to me, "Don't push yourself too hard...!"

Heaton coldly asked, "What was that footwork called?"

After he finished speaking, I said casually, "I learned it from somewhere else; it's called 'Instant Step' on that platform!"

Heaton's lips curled into a slight smile as he said, "'Instant Step,' huh! It's really... wow!" Before he could finish speaking, he coughed up blood and fainted!

“Captain…!” Ralph and Clark, who had already woken up, called out after seeing Heaton collapse.

With the help of the staff, Ralph carried Heaton off the ring and then announced his forfeit of the rest of the match. It was time for the referee to declare the British team the winner and advance to the semifinals.

Amid the cheers of the audience, I stepped off the stage. Xiao Wu and Yu Li immediately rushed into my arms, tearing open my clothes, which had been damaged by Heaton, to check my injuries. Seeing the worried expressions on their faces, I immediately smiled and said, "Hehe... Xiao Wu, Yu Li, don't worry, I'm fine. Look, my injuries have healed!" As I spoke, I revealed my chest, which only had a red line visible.

After confirming several times, Yuri asked first, "Brother Tian, ​​how did your injury heal so quickly?"

I smiled and patted her head, saying, "Silly girl, don't forget who healed your injuries yesterday!"

Yuri suddenly realized and said, "That's right! Brother Tian has the special ability to heal injuries. How could I have forgotten that!"

Mai Shiranui immediately smiled and said to Yuri, "Didn't Brother Tian say it? Because you're a little silly!"

"Damn it! Mai, you're talking about me too! Aren't you the same?!" Yuri immediately started arguing with Mai after hearing her mockery.

I laughed and said, "Alright...alright, you two stop fooling around and hurry up and get off the stage! The second round of the finals will start in a little while."

When Xiaowu and Youli heard what I said, they immediately stopped playing around, each taking one of my arms and walking into the passage with big smiles on their faces, because they thought their 'Brother Tian' was an amazing person.

"Brother Tian, ​​what footwork did you use just now? It was so amazing! Can you teach me?" Yuri asked immediately with a smile.

"Okay...you can say whatever you want, but don't blame us if you don't learn it...!" With Xiao Wu and You Li nagging us, we entered the contestants' locker room.

After I went inside, Jing had already returned to the locker room. When she saw that I wasn't hurt, she immediately hugged me tightly and said, "You're alright...that's so good!"

Looking at Jing throwing herself into my arms, I felt a little awkward. Although she had kissed me before, she had never hugged me like this before. However, considering Xiao Wu's promise to them, her actions were understandable. I remained still as she held me. After a while, Xiao Wu, seeing my situation, smiled and said, "Sister Jing, don't keep hugging Brother Tian like this. Standing like this all the time, Brother Tian just finished two matches. Let him rest!"

"Xiao Wu, your excuse is really... never mind, I've gotten you out of this predicament." I couldn't help but think to myself when I heard Xiao Wu's excuse, but I said aloud, "Yeah! Jing, I think I should sit down, I seem a little tired." As I spoke, I took the opportunity to let Jing release her face and hands.

Jing seemed to realize her mistake, her face immediately turning red, and she quickly let go of my hands. So I sat on a chair in the changing room to rest, while Xiao Wu and Yu Li massaged me. Yu Li rubbed my shoulders, Xiao Wu pounded my left leg, and Jing pounded my right leg. Being served by three beautiful women was truly a great pleasure! Seeing my blissful expression, Yu Li worked even harder.

Just then, cheers erupted from outside, reminding me that there was a match between Mexico and Italy today, a game I couldn't miss. So I immediately said, "Yuri, Xiaowu, Jing, the second match of the finals has started! Let's go out and see!" With that, I stood up and ran outside.

"Brother Tian, ​​wait for me!" Yuri shouted as soon as she saw me run out.

When we ran to the stands reserved for the fighters, the match had already begun. Takuma Sakazaki was sparring with Andy. Andy's fighting style was a combination of the fighting methods taught by Jubei Yamada regarding the structure of the human skeleton, ninjutsu from the Shiranui school, and Bajiquan. As for Takuma Sakazaki, needless to say, both of them used "Gouken" (powerful punches) combined with the astonishing power of "Zettai Teru" (absolute territory). Once they landed a hit, the opponent would definitely suffer.

As I watched the two fighting in the ring, Yuri, who was standing next to me, suddenly asked, "Brother Tian, ​​do you think Dad will win?"

I glanced at Yuri, then looked at the two on the stage and said, "I know Uncle Zhuomo is strong! I also know Andy is strong! Their victory or defeat depends on their fighting spirit."

After hearing what I said, Yuri remained silent for a while, then suddenly shouted, "Daddy, come on! Don't lose...!"

Looking at Yuri who was shouting loudly, I smiled and used my ability to control the wind to clearly transmit her voice to Takuma Sakazaki's ears. Otherwise, no matter how loud her voice was, it couldn't compare to the shouts of tens of thousands of audience members.

Perhaps it was Yuri's encouragement that made Takuma Sakazaki, who was initially losing ground due to his physical condition, suddenly launch a fierce counterattack. At a crucial moment, he took the hit of Andy's "Super Rift Bullet," a technique that incorporated the "Shiranui-ryu" ninjutsu, and then defeated Andy with the "Kyokugenryu" ultimate technique, "Overlord Supreme Fist," winning the first round of the match. However, he withdrew from the match due to severe injuries.

Next up were Robert and Joe Higashi. Robert used Joe Higashi's moves to fight him at the start of the match. The impetuous Joe Higashi thought Robert was underestimating him, so he kept attacking. However, Robert blocked his attacks with the same moves and cleverly used the principle of 'breakpoint'. After a round of attacks, he caused serious damage to Joe Higashi's fists and legs.

Upon seeing this, Yuri and Xiaowu immediately asked, "Brother Tian, ​​what exactly is going on?"

Seeing the two men's curious expressions, I looked at the two on the stage and slowly said, "Robert is attacking Joe Higashi's 'collapse point'!"

"What is 'breakpoint'?" Yuri asked immediately, puzzled.

“No matter how solid an object is, it has its weakest point. A light attack on that point can easily break the otherwise very hard object. Robert used Joe's moves at the beginning of the match because it would be easier to find Joe's ‘breakpoint’ and, while blocking Joe, also inflict enough damage to make him a threat.” I said, looking at the already injured Joe.

"Wasn't Robert being a bit despicable?" Xiao Wu said immediately, somewhat angrily.

As soon as she finished speaking, Jing immediately laughed and said, "This is not despicable, it is strategy. Besides, the fact that he was able to find Dongzhang's 'breakdown point' already proves his extraordinary ability."

“So Robert won the rescue!” Yuri asked immediately with a smile.

"That's not necessarily true!" Jing said with a slow smile.

Upon hearing Jing's words, Yuri immediately looked at me with a questioning gaze, hoping to get an answer from me. I just smiled and continued watching the match.

Soon, just as Robert, who had been dominating the fight, was about to end it, the heavily injured Joe Higashi recklessly used the 'Absolute Territory', abandoning all defense and unleashing countless punches towards Robert. Caught off guard, Robert was immediately engulfed by the punches and was subsequently hit by nearly a hundred punches before losing to Joe Higashi and the match.

Even before the third round of the match began, the audience's emotions had already reached their peak, anticipating the battle between the 'Strongest Dragon' and the 'Legendary Garou'.

As the two stood on the ring, their auras instantly reached their peak before subsiding, creating a sense of oppression for the audience. They locked eyes, their auras locked onto each other, ready to deliver a powerful blow at the slightest opening.

But things often take unexpected turns. Yuri, who was standing next to me, suddenly shouted, "Idiot brother! What are you doing! Hurry up and defeat him! Don't dawdle!" This caused the momentum of the two people on the stage to collapse, and all the previous tension vanished. Terry and Liang laughed and said, "That's right, a match should be fought in one go!" After saying that, the two of them took their fighting stances and charged at each other, engaging in battle.

I watched the two fighting, smiled, and thought to myself, "Grow stronger quickly! When you surpass your limits again, that will be our time to fight again!"

The two on the field were evenly matched. In order to decide the winner as soon as possible, they completely abandoned their defense and attacked each other with punches and corners. When the fight got intense, the two of them simultaneously unleashed the power of their 'Absolute Domain' and bombarded each other with their ultimate moves. The scene was truly...!

The match ended in a draw, and since neither team could participate in the extra time, the organizers declared both teams eliminated. Therefore, our British team advanced directly to the finals. The three girls were overjoyed when the referee announced this news!

Tomorrow, after the third and fourth matches of the competition, we all returned to our rooms. Once back in our rooms, Jing suddenly asked me, "Tian, ​​don't you have healing powers? Why don't you treat the deaf people?"

I turned to look at her and said with a smile, "Because there's no need for that anymore. Besides, if one of their teams wins, they'll have to play against each other, and they'll be unhappy if I don't play. It's better to let them recover from their injuries in peace."

Chapter 65 Athena's Battle

When they learned that we had advanced directly to the finals, Mai Shiranui and Yuri immediately cheered with joy, and even Kyo had a smile on her face. So that night, the girls ordered a lot of food and celebrated properly until midnight before stopping and going back to their rooms to rest.

Perhaps because I had eaten too much, I felt thirsty while I was sleeping, so I got up, went to the living room, picked up the glass kettle, and poured myself a glass of water. Just as I was about to drink it, Jing, wearing her pajamas, came out of her room. Still half asleep, she didn't seem to notice me and walked right past me into the bathroom. Seeing her like this, I couldn't help but smile, finished the water in my glass, and went back to my room.

I had barely lain down when Jing, looking sleepy, pushed open the door and walked in. To my surprise, she went straight to my bedside and lay down, pulling the blanket off me. Soon, I could hear her rhythmic breathing. I looked at Jing, her face turned towards me, less than half a foot apart. For some reason, I didn't wake her. Inhaling the faint fragrance of her breath, I quickly drifted off to sleep myself.

Although a fragrant aroma filled my nostrils, breathing was incredibly difficult. Opening my eyes, I saw nothing but Kyo's chest; my face was buried entirely in her bosom. Thankfully, Kyo hadn't woken up yet. I quickly and gently moved my body, sitting up without disturbing her, and looked down at the still-sleeping Kyo. Upon seeing Kyo's appearance, I was stunned. Kyo's current appearance could only be described in two words: "...". Bathed in sunlight streaming through the window, her originally golden hair shimmered with a golden light. Although her hair wasn't long, it was beautiful. Her nightgown was completely open at the chest, revealing what appeared to be a very dark black bra underneath. All of this gave Kyo, who usually wore the same clothes, an inexplicable allure.

Then I noticed a faint blush on Jing's face, and I knew she was awake. So I smiled and said, "A sleepyhead crawled into my bed last night... I don't know if this sleepyhead is really sleepy or just pretending, but I have to say... it looks very pretty now!" After saying that, I lowered my head and gently kissed her lips, and then whispered in her ear with a smile, "If you don't go back to your room soon, I wonder what Xiaowu and Yuri will think..." Before I could finish speaking, Jing blushed and ran out.

Watching Jing run away, I couldn't help but laugh. But just then, Jing returned, walked up to me, blushed, hugged my neck, and kissed my lips. I took the opportunity to stick my tongue into Jing's small mouth and taste the delicate fragrance... After the kiss ended, Jing blushed again and ran away.

After the waiter brought the breakfast, I smiled and said to Yuri, who was sitting next to me eating heartily, "Yuri, you'd better eat quickly, or you'll never be like Xiaowu!"

Hearing me say that, Yuri put down her rice bowl, rice grains still clinging to the corner of her mouth, and asked me with a puzzled look, "What does she look like, Sister Xiaowu?"

Looking at Yuri's adorable face with rice grains still clinging to the corners of her mouth, I smiled and gently removed the rice grains from her lips with my finger, slowly putting them into her mouth. I smiled slightly and said, "What do you think...?" As I spoke, I glanced at Xiaowu and Yuri.

Yuri, who had blushed from my earlier actions, looked around in the direction of my gaze before realizing what I meant. Her face immediately turned red, and then, amidst the scolding from Xiaowu and Yuri and the laughter of Jing, we ended our meal.

I checked the time and said to the three girls, "The third match of the finals is about to start. I want to go cheer for Xiaoya and Xiaozhui, so... if you want to come, come along!" After saying that, I grabbed Mai Shiranui and ran off first.
