The "Sen no Sen" technique was broken by the "accident" created by Kanon, but even without the "Sen no Sen", Kanon is still the Fang of Destroyer, and the legend of winning all 160 matches in the Kengan Tournament!
"First of the First" isn't as mystical as some claim; it simply means anticipating the enemy's actions earlier. There are also other levels of anticipating enemy actions, such as "First of the Opponent" which is launched simultaneously and "First of the Counter" which is launched after the enemy has made their move. In terms of level, Gana reacted after Kanon had already made her move, so she could only be considered "First of the Counter" in terms of level. However, the effect was just as sharp, and she still managed to block Kanon's heavy punch.
"Ugh..." Kana groaned. Kanon's attack was a combination of her and Kana's power. Even if she blocked it, it would not be easy. Kana had reaped what she sowed and personally experienced a "cleaver-like attack".
Moreover, Kanon's pursuit followed closely behind.
Both are martial artists with perfect spiritual attainment. How could Kanon bear to deliver three heavy blows to the head of the delicate girl Kanon? How could Kanon be so shocked that she dared not make a move because "Oni's Strike" was blocked? Do you think Kanon is a philanthropist?
Just kidding, those three punches to the head weren't the "Give Me Back My Beauty Punch." Hanon risked being disfigured to withstand them, and now it's time for her to get her revenge!
Kanon completely ignored the fist that was blocked by Kana and immediately attacked with her other hand, which was also easily blocked by Kana... But Kanon's purpose was not that. Although both of her fists were held by Kana, from another perspective, it was actually Kanon who controlled Kana's arm!
Kanon's true killing move is her headbutt.
"Ah, it's a headbutt!" Katahara Sayaka shouted, and the entire audience could see that Kanon was going to headbutt Kana!
Among the fighters, Ren Nikaido was somewhat of an outlier. He and his "Sirius Clan" had initially defected to Tokyo Electric Power Company, but were later bribed by Katahara Mitsudo and joined the Katahara family's forces. Their situation was awkward, so instead of joining the other fighters on the platform, they were gathered in the lounge watching television. Seeing Kanon use her headbutt again, Ren Nikaido felt a sudden tingling sensation in his still-bandaged nose, as if it were hurting again: "Hiss—"
Watching Kanon and Kano repeatedly collide head-on on the screen, Ren Nikaido trembled all over. "Flavor" was actually a girl, and this girl had easily defeated him? At first, when Kanon entered in women's clothing, Ren Nikaido underestimated her a bit. But after realizing, like most people, that Kanon was "Flavor," and that "Flavor" was an unparalleled powerhouse, Ren Nikaido was filled with awe for Kanon.
Now, seeing Kanon, who was using the spot that should have been hers, actually suppressing the Fang of Destroyer, Ren Nikaido felt quite lucky to have escaped with his life from such a powerful opponent...
"Thump! Thump! Thump!" Hanon's headbutt kept hitting Gana. The two bumped heads several times. Hanon relied on her "indestructible body" and was sure she wouldn't suffer any losses, so she just went ahead and "exchanged blood" without any worries. After several collisions, Gana was indeed a little... dizzy?
"Are you kidding me? Is this guy really a turtle?" Kanon was also shocked. Kanon's head was too hard! Kanon was using cheat codes to fight him, and he was only a little dizzy?
Well, it wasn't just dizziness. The skin on the eyebrows and forehead is the most delicate part of the human body, and it's also rich in capillaries. After a round of headbutts, both Hanon and Kana had broken skin and blood splattered everywhere. Although the people involved were basically unaware of it, to outsiders, the scene was actually extremely tragic!
"Ah! Hana, Hana..." In the VIP room, Miho was a little teary-eyed. When Hana looked like she was about to be punched to death by Kanao, she was able to control her emotions, or rather, she was too emotionally overwhelmed to react. Now that the battle had eased up a bit and Hana seemed to have the upper hand, Miho became anxious and almost lost control of her emotions.
The same situation occurred with Kirito Takakaze. Although Kuroki specifically explained the situation of Kanon and Kanon, saying that such bleeding was only a minor injury—in fact, Kirito, being so old and having spent so much time with Kengan, of course understood these things. However, concern clouded his judgment. As an elder who was obsessed with his niece, how could he not feel when he saw his niece fighting a bloody battle?
"You brat...you...you better watch out!"
After a series of collisions, Kanon constantly mobilized her muscles to strengthen the stability of her neck and forehead, which reduced the amount of muscle in other parts of her body. This subtle change could not escape the notice of Kano, especially since the two of them were holding hands and restraining each other. Kanon's strength weakened, which Kano immediately took advantage of.
Gana, who was already somewhat dazed from the impact, quickly mustered all her strength and broke free from Kanon's hands.
"Trying to run? No way!" Gana was stunned, but Kanon was perfectly fine! Seeing Gana break free and try to retreat, Kanon's pursuit followed closely—she threw a punch, but felt a numbness in her finger, followed by blood and excruciating pain. It turned out that Gana, who was retreating, had stopped in his tracks and swept over with an elbow strike, dislocating Kanon's finger!
Clearly, this was another of "first-to-first" predictions. Not only does Kanon have amazing stamina, but she also consistently suppresses Kanon in terms of martial arts prowess...
"Ouch, that hurts!" It was Kanon's turn to back in pain again.
Ghana naturally had to follow up and pursue.
With the advantage of being "first," Kanon's attacks were far more reliable than Kanon's. When Kanon was forced to retreat in pain, she had no way to reverse the situation. She could only raise her hands to protect herself in front of her, while lowering her center of gravity, crouching down and tucking her legs in, forming the "Sansekai" stance in karate.
This is Kuroki Gensai's signature defensive technique, even though he doesn't possess the "Indestructible Vajra" ability. It's considered a perfect defensive technique in karate, as solid as iron.
Moreover, with Hanon tightening her muscles and her whole body becoming "indestructible," her hardness in the "third battle" is probably even greater than that of iron and stone!
"So tough..." Gana sighed sincerely. This girl named Ye Hana had brought him so many surprises and difficulties. The duel with her was truly... enjoyable.
In just over two minutes, Kanon had been amazed by Kanon's performance several times. Now, facing the ultimate "Third Battle", Kanon swore that this was the strongest defense he had ever encountered in his life, and he could not break it no matter what!
“But it doesn’t matter.” Ghana remained unmoved: “I’ll keep hitting you until you break down!”
There is no such thing as an eternal defense. Even the strongest fortress will eventually be breached. How long can Kanon hold out against Kana's relentless bombardment?
Author's Note: That's all for today~ I'll try to update more tomorrow, please be patient and don't rush me. If you do rush me... the original title of this chapter was "You Have a Mace, I Have a Skull Cover", lol.
Section 241, Chapter 239: Jinse's Unprovoked Journey
Kana's attacks were fierce and relentless, with heavy punches constantly landing on Kanon, the "Third Battle".
Because Hanon appeared in women's clothing, she removed many of the bandages that originally covered her body, revealing some skin. Under the high-definition camera's lens, the entire audience could see the bruises on her body.
"That's terrible! It looks so painful..." Everyone thought, "She probably won't last much longer."
Is this highly anticipated battle going to end in such a dull way?
"Definitely not." On the high platform, sumo wrestler Oni-Ohyama-zun suddenly said, "I know Yohane. With her personality, she would never accept such an ending. She must still have a backup plan!"
Okubo, who was standing next to him, nodded: "Although I haven't had much interaction with her, I agree with this. Judging from this young lady's previous behavior, she is definitely not someone who will sit idly by and wait for her fate... The question is, how will she retaliate?"
"Hahaha, what's so difficult about that? Just use your hard skull to take Gana's attack head-on, and then seize the opportunity to counterattack!" Next to Okubo was Passain, a Burmese Riwei expert. This fighter possessed the hardest skull in all of humanity. Seeing that Hanon had taken three head attacks from Gana before, he concluded that this girl also had a hard skull. If he were in her shoes, he would definitely use the same technique to fight against Gana.
“…That’s the kind of thinking an idiot would have.” Next to Pasayin was Thailand’s “God of Fighting,” Gaolang.
Gaolang sighed and rubbed his forehead in exasperation. As a warrior who had defeated Passain and lost to Gana, Gaolang had a clear understanding of the strength of both of them. Gana's attacks were not so easy to break. His friend was so simple-minded that it was heartbreaking.
However, just as Gaolang was about to lecture Passain, the battle situation changed again: Kanon really withdrew one hand, revealing an opening. When Kana seized the opportunity to throw a punch, Kanon also threw a punch at the same time—she abandoned defense and switched to a "blood exchange" offensive.
"Hahahaha!" Passain was very excited that he had guessed correctly, and started shouting again, which made Gaolang next to him almost choke on his breath. He swallowed the words that were about to come out and could only continue to maintain his usual cold style.
Sigh, for the proud and aloof Gaolang, this is truly a case of "a bitter pill to swallow," but unfortunately, "he just can't express it"...
What could Kanon really do? She was helpless too! With the blessing of the "First of First" realm, Kanon's attack angles and frequencies were ingenious and precise, completely suppressing Kanon and making it impossible for her to counterattack. Over time, even the strongest defense would crumble. If she didn't do something, Kanon would indeed "suffocate" her in this match.
Rather than sit and wait for death, it's better to fight with all your might! Because of the amusing interaction between Gaolang and Passain, the fighters on the platform didn't realize that when Kanon threw her counter-punch, it already had a tragic air of "not wanting to be a starving corpse, but rather like a praying mantis fighting with all its might"...
No, some people were not influenced by the Southeast Asian fighting duo, but their understanding of Kanon was also incorrect.
For example, Wakatsuki Samurai, both Kanon and Kana had defeated him, so Wakatsuki had been watching their fight very carefully. When he saw Kanon launch another attack, he was very pessimistic: "Flavor... no, Kanon is going to lose!"
In the ward, Izumi Hatsumi held the same view: "Kohane's previous attacks have been proven to be a failure. Kana has adapted to her speed. Under the crushing power of the first-to-first realm, further attacks will only expose more of her weaknesses and lead to her defeat by Kana sooner."
"Oh." When Hatsumi reached out to take the cup, Shion, who had just broken a cup, handed her a glass of water. However, Shion flipped the cup over, letting the water soak Hatsumi's lower body.
"Who is your 'Little Flower Voice'? You old scoundrel!"
Not to mention that he had to apologize to Ziyin quite a bit when they first met. This guy may be a bit eccentric, but his knowledge of martial arts is quite profound. Like Wakatsuki, he realized Hanon's predicament—the kind of confrontation that they had already performed at the very beginning of the match! If it had been useful, the match wouldn't have had to develop to this point.
So, as soon as the exchange of blows between Kanon and Kana began, she immediately found herself at a disadvantage. In fact, it wasn't even a "blood exchange" at all—Kana easily blocked Kanon's attack and then countered with a heavy punch, forcing Kanon, who had deliberately disrupted her "three-fight" stance, to retreat repeatedly. Just as Wakatsuki and Hatsumi had predicted, the situation became even worse.
"That 'Flavor' has become a punching bag..." the audience exclaimed. "Ghana is going to win! 'Teeth' is definitely the best!"
This is the full force that Ghana is putting in right now—it's terrifying, absolutely terrifying!
Is it really that terrifying...?
"Hmph, so you're out of new tricks?" Although she had been retreating, Kanon had already gained a considerable understanding of Kana's level in her "cold state." Her attacks and defenses were methodical, relying on her superb basic skills, superb physical attributes, superb preemptive judgment, and superb mental fortitude to overwhelm Kanon. Although she was frighteningly powerful, she lacked "explosiveness" and was not enough to "scare Kanon to death."
The outcome of the match is still uncertain!
Kanon, emboldened, continued her relentless attack on Kanao, throwing punches—one, two, three… Soon, everyone noticed something was amiss—why were Kanon's attacks consistently hitting Kanao? The two had truly reached a point of exhaustion!
The average viewer only knew that the situation had changed from Kanon being passively attacked back to a balanced exchange of blows, but the fighters were completely baffled and couldn't figure out how Kanon had managed to do it.
"Jesus! What... what's going on?!" Jerry Tyson shouted out the thoughts of all the fighters: "Did Kanon use some kind of magic? Her attack didn't change, but it still hit Kanon! Am I seeing things?"
You should know that being able to keep hitting Ghana means that Kanon has broken through the "first of the first" level!
Cough cough, of course Hanon hasn't reached that level. She's just "using tricks" again. Who says her attacks haven't changed?
The moves are still the same, nothing fancy, just basic movements, but some things are different now.
In the stands, Akoya Kiyoaki turned to his lover and asked, "Hiyama, she..."
Before he could finish speaking, Hiyama Shunka was already nodding: "That's right, Kanon's rhythm of movement is completely disrupted, just like when she fought you."
By deliberately altering breathing frequency and muscle distribution, one can change their offensive and defensive rhythm; this is known as the "Goddess of a Thousand Faces."
Of course, that was far from enough. Kanon's attack also used a "secret technique" that she had not used extensively in the final match - Chaos!
The combination of the Thousand-Faced Goddess and Chaos made Kanon's attacks completely unpredictable. Although Kanon still had advantages in physical strength, experience, and even technique, the overwhelming difference in their levels had been erased by Kanon. Kanon was still able to hit Kanon, and Kanon was also constantly hitting Kanon. The bruises and wounds on both of them increased, and blood began to seep out, flow out, and even bleed...
Three and a half minutes into the battle, the intense fighting returned to a stalemate.
Author's Note: There will indeed be three updates today: one chapter at noon, one at 4 PM, and one at 7 PM. Don't miss them!
Section 242, Chapter 240: Disorder versus Formlessness
Kanon's Thousand Faces Goddess plus disorder is really strong. In the blink of an eye, she pulled Kanon from a position of overwhelming superiority to the same level as Kanon. Then, with the blessing of "Indestructible Vajra", she bet that Kanon's "health" was not as good as hers... Well, although Kanon had already shown an incredible ability to withstand blows, Kanon's defense was not to be underestimated!
Both of them faced top-tier opponents in the previous rounds, making their battles incredibly challenging. Not only did they overcome these experts, but they also avoided serious injuries that would hinder their movements. Their resilience is truly commendable. Who was more "turtle" is definitely a topic worthy of discussion...
However, the battle is intensifying, and the situation is changing rapidly. There is no time left for them to slowly wear each other down!
The fierce battle continued, but the balance of power was soon broken again.
At one point during the clash of heavy punches, when Kanon attacked Kano with her "Thousand-Faced Goddess + Disorder" finger razor, Kano actually blocked the attack?!
Not only did it block, it was a finger strike! Gana accurately destroyed Kanon's finger joints, dislocating two more of Kanon's fingers, and at the same time, he declared that he was not just lucky, but had directly seen through Kanon's attack intentions!
Is "Xianzhixian" back?
A shocked Kanon panicked a little: "That's impossible! Theoretically, even Saki shouldn't be able to handle the combination of the Thousand-Faced Goddess and the Disorder!"
Well, it's true that "First of First" wouldn't be enough to deal with it, but who said that Ghana was using "First of First"? There's obviously another reason behind his breaking through Kanon's attack.
"Hehehe... Not bad, but I still managed to break through." Gana actually laughed. Such laughter on the serious battlefield was truly chilling!
However, this laugh is not unfamiliar to everyone, because he has shown the same expression when fighting against Okubo, Gaolang, and even Nito.
"Ah! That's the stance!" Okubo realized, and then Gaolang frowned as well: "Gana still has a lot of leeway..."
Meanwhile, in the VIP room, the other two members of the "Three Crows" from the film source family, Ying Shan and Wang Sen, were also closely watching the battle. Seeing Gana's crazed expression, Ying Shan couldn't help but become anxious: "That idiot, he's started using 'Invisible' again!"
“It may not be a bad thing.” In contrast, Wang Sen, the previous generation’s Fang of Destroyer, seemed much more composed: “Ye Huayin’s attack is very strange. No one expected that she could break through the first one. Under such circumstances, Gana’s ‘Martial’ state can no longer guarantee victory. Simply sticking to this state may only lead to failure. At this time, ‘Formless’ may be more suitable. I believe Gana realized this and made the choice.”
The two were talking quite loudly, not hiding it from the two club presidents watching from inside the room. Miho didn't understand much, only that Kanon was incredibly powerful, having forced out a new technique from the "Fang of Destruction," while also feeling sorry for Kanon's dislocated fingers. The former club president, Katahara, was overwhelmed with emotion, reminiscing about the past…
