Why is my anime art style so weird?

I'm a three-time Japanese champion and a world champion!

I'm betting my honor as a racing legend!

"I will ensure the two young ladies get home safely!"

The butler gave a firm and confident guarantee.

An indescribable aura emanated from the butler.

Please help me!

Despite saying that, Yukino Yukinoshita secretly took out her phone and sent a message to Xu Ming.

Although she didn't know if it would be too late, Xu Ming was practically the only lifeline she could grasp at this moment.

All she could do was pray.

Just as Yukino was feeling uneasy, a cool sensation came from the back of her hand. Her younger sister, Yukino, quietly reached out her small hand and covered her hand.

Yukinoshita Haruno calmed down immediately.

The two sisters overcame such a dangerous situation together before, so they'll definitely be fine this time too!

Soon the straightaway ended, and the two cars entered a new round of competition.

With complete focus, the butler executed the operation with meticulous precision, achieving a level of performance comparable to the AE86 for a time.

The AE86 has been unable to close the gap for a long time.

The butler soon discovered that the mountain road had entered its second half and they were about to leave Mount Akina.

Once you descend the mountain and enter the straight road, this upgraded Cadillac equipped with a helicopter engine can teach the AE86 a lesson in no time!

The bend ahead is the last difficult section before leaving the mountain, and it's also the only chance the AE86 has left.

AE86 seemed to have sensed that its prey was about to escape.

It finally revealed its deadly fangs at the last moment!

Ahead lies the famous series of U-shaped bends of Mount Akina, also known as the Five-Hairpin Bend because its shape resembles a hairpin when viewed from above!

The butler seemed to realize the seriousness of the problem.

His attention was more focused than ever before.

Once you get past this hairpin bend...

Once I get past this hairpin bend, I've won!

Soon, the Cadillac and the AE86 entered the first bend one after the other.

The butler immediately pulled the handbrake and simultaneously turned the steering wheel sharply.

The Cadillac slid into the first corner at a near-perfect angle.

Not only did the car's speed not decrease much, but it also perfectly blocked the AE86's path.

nice!

The housekeeper mentally gave himself a thumbs up.

Even at his peak, he couldn't have done any better.

The strongest opponent forced him to become even stronger!

however……

Looking in the rearview mirror, the butler quickly noticed that the AE86 hadn't started drifting. Instead, it was using a strange gripping driving style, hugging the inside of the curve, and passing through the first corner.

The distance between the two cars even closed!

Chapter 412 Simp?

As we all know, although drifting looks cool, it actually results in a significant loss of speed and is far less practical than driving with grip.

However, sharp turns like U-shaped bends, which are 180 degrees, are problematic.

The grip-based running style doesn't offer much of an advantage.

Because of the strong centrifugal force, the car will be involuntarily thrown outwards.

To counteract this centrifugal force, grip driving typically involves slowing down and entering corners from the outside.

It's common sense that the outer circle is longer than the inner circle.

Therefore, when facing U-turns, the grip driving method has no advantage over drifting.

But the AE86 defied this common sense, entering the corner close to the inside line and staying there the whole time, without being thrown off!

This allows the AE86 to take corners with the shortest possible distance and minimal speed loss.

After exiting the corner, the Cadillac, which was originally leading by a full car length, was suddenly caught up by the AE86 and only led by one car length!

How did he manage to do that?!

The butler was filled with questions, and his thoughts almost became chaotic.

Before he could figure it out, the second bend came!

Under immense pressure, the butler executed an even more perfect drift than before.

However, the AE86 once again employed that strange inward-curving grip driving technique.

After exiting the second bend, the AE86 officially overtook the Cadillac by a head.

Then comes the third bend!

The housekeeper felt he had reached his limit.

The front of the car was almost touching the guardrail.

However, after exiting the corner, the AE86 was already a full car length ahead of the Cadillac!

No matter how hard he tried to catch up, he could only watch the taillights of his rivals grow ever more distant and farther away...

A profound sense of powerlessness washed over the butler.

Before he could even feel frustrated for a few seconds, the fourth bend came!

This time, Cadillac has completely fallen behind.

The butler finally discovered the secret to the AE86's driving technique...

'gutter?

I actually lost to the drainage ditch!?

The butler was left speechless, feeling both amused and exasperated.

What does this feel like?

It's like when you're playing a game and you see the other player getting a lot of kills, and you think they're a top player, but it turns out they're cheating.

How did this guy come up with such a crooked idea?

"housekeeper!"

Yukino Yukinoshita, sitting in the back seat, suddenly cried out.

The butler suddenly woke up.

When you're about to lose, you don't care about underhanded tactics anymore.

Just then, the fifth bend came hurtling towards us at high speed!

The butler yanked hard on the collar of the tuxedo.

I am a (former) professional race car driver!

Three-time Japanese champion!

A world champion!

(Former) Japanese racing legend, you're not afraid!

It's just the same method as running through a drainage ditch!

I can do that too!

So when the two cars reached the fifth bend one after the other, the AE86 turned the steering wheel and the right front wheel immediately slid into the ditch, followed by the right rear wheel.

Cadillac followed suit, also sliding its right front wheel into the drainage ditch.

not good!

But the housekeeper soon discovered the problem.

The Cadillac is a modified model with bulletproof features. To cope with the weight of the vehicle, its tires are not only solid but also wider, unlike the narrow tires of the smaller and lighter AE86.

This resulted in the drainage grooves, which could fit into AE86 tires, being a bit too wide for the Cadillac.

With wider tires and the increased weight of the Cadillac, its inertia was greater, and the drainage ditch couldn't hold it in place, causing the car to start to drift outwards.

What a (former) Japanese racing legend!

In just a few seconds, he managed to get the Cadillac back on track.

So the two cars, one after the other, rushed out of the drainage ditch and made the fifth U-turn.

This time, Cadillac did not widen the gap further.

Before the butler could even feel happy, he suddenly realized that the path down the mountain was not far ahead.

He's going to lose!

Then he noticed that the AE86 in front of him, which had not turned on its headlights, suddenly turned on its taillights.

The crimson taillights flashed, like a pair of blood-red eyes.

The AE86 suddenly began to decelerate and slowly approached the Cadillac.

The loser will have their soul taken away…

That sinister remark echoed in the butler's mind once again.

With the blood-red taillights flashing in front of him, a chill ran from the soles of his feet to the top of his head.

Almost instinctively, the butler swerved the steering wheel sharply, swerving into the other lane in an attempt to avoid the AE86 that was getting closer and closer.
