A muscular girl is presented to the passionate world of crossover anime.

The girl was holding a plate of cold fruit and eating it with great enjoyment when she leisurely walked over. Nogi grabbed her and refused her hand. She was completely confused about the situation and didn't even think about what the Kengan Association president was going to do.

The position of president of the Kengan Association is truly "out of reach" for her.

Seeing that Miho's expression didn't seem fake, Nogi Hideki was also puzzled: "If it's not President Suoh... Takakaze, could it be you?"

However, the voice from the shadows answered: "It's me."

A person slowly walked out. When Nogi saw who it was, he didn't seem surprised, because it was indeed a member of the Takakaze family—Yo Hanane.

Kanon nodded to Nogi Hideki and said, "President Nogi, hello. I asked my uncle to call you here, and I also called Mieko." Her voice was still a little hoarse, a lingering effect of the intense physical exertion in the final. After all, that battle had reached a life-or-death level, and she would need a long time to recover afterwards.

"Oh, so it's Miss Hanon. You're the one trying to recruit me?"

Hanon shook her head: "I'm not a business owner, so recruiting you wouldn't be of any use. Besides, you already rejected Miho, so my answer wouldn't have been any different!"

Nogi was even more puzzled now: "Then what exactly are you...?"

"Well, it's just a small matter. I wanted to discuss it with President Nogi." Kanon blinked. "How about you take over as president of the Kengan Association?"

"What!" Nogi Hideki jumped up in shock. "What did you say?"

After confirming that she hadn't misheard, Nogi was nearly driven mad: "Y-do you know what you just said?"

Hanon shrugged: "I know, this is a decision we made after discussing it." Then she patted Miho: "Hey, don't eat yet, explain yourself."

“I’m hungry…” Miho protested. She had been worried about Kanon for days and was now experiencing a kind of stress-induced binge eating. She quickly shoveled a few more bites of salad before slowly explaining, “This was Kanon’s suggestion, but I agree with it. I’m a newcomer to the Kengan Association. I don’t even know much about running my own company, let alone such a large and complex organization like the Kengan Association. Rather than letting me mess up the Kengan Association, it’s better to hand it over to someone more experienced and strategic. President Nogi is a great candidate!”

Miho's explanation was reasonable. She was indeed a newcomer to the Kengan Association. Although she was a supernova and made a name for herself in the elimination tournament at a young age, winning the championship was easy, but maintaining it was difficult. Miho was far from having the ability to control the Kengan Association.

Even Kanon doesn't possess this ability; after all, she was just an ordinary office worker in her previous life, not someone with such omnipotent skills. Besides, even if she painstakingly managed to run the Kengan Association well, it would require too much effort and thought. Was it worth it for Kanon to go to such lengths?

You know, as the eldest daughter of the Eagle Wind family, Hana will never lack money in her life. She can't spend a trillion, and she can't spend a hundred billion. So why should she make such a great effort to expand her assets from a hundred billion to a trillion?

Therefore, handing over the Kengan Association is the best solution. Kanon hasn't had enough of that simple and boring life of the rich yet!

Author's note: Tomorrow will be the handover of the final match.

Let me reveal some future plans. After the final battle, there will definitely be a wave of daily life storylines. As for the major storylines, I'm still considering them. I need to make a decision while updating the daily life storylines, and then familiarize myself with the original work before starting.

However, I can promise you here that Baki will definitely appear, because some of the settings in it are very attractive to me, although some of them also made me quite confused... Baki also involves more stories in the future, and I am really looking forward to it.

The question now is when exactly the Baki storyline begins...

Section 260, Chapter 258: Speak of Cao Cao, and Hua Yin will arrive.

The air suddenly became quiet. Nogi Hideki fell silent, trying to get his brain working to see if there was anything wrong with this "gift from heaven".

Suoh Steel's actions are so baffling, I can't even begin to imagine them...

Finally giving up on thinking, Nogi turned to Kirito: "Brother Takakaze, don't you want to be the chairman of the Kengan Association?"

"Me? Never mind." Kirito shrugged. Actually, when Kanon and Mihono decided to hand over the Kengan Association chairmanship, he was the first one they approached. He had already refused once.

He looked out at the vast sky outside the bar, striking a pose of ethereal detachment: "...Yellow Eagle, this is an Indian name given to me by an Indian tribe, and it is also the image of my soul."

Kiji looked at Nogi, then at Mihono and Kanon: "It was Kuroki who asked me to participate in this desperate elimination tournament. As for myself, being an eagle soaring through the sky is enough... By the way, it seems that Kuroki was asked by Mr. Katamoto. In fact, Mr. Katamoto has wanted to step down as chairman for a long time, and Nogi, who has been active all along, is a promising talent that Mr. Katamoto has high hopes for!"

"I see..." Nogi Hideki didn't know what to say. Although Kirito's words dispelled his doubts about taking over as chairman of the Kengan Association, they also made him feel even more powerless against Katahara Metsudo. That old man, he was truly brilliant.

"Besides, I heard from the old man that if you don't become the chairman, you'll go bankrupt, right?" Qieji continued, "I'm not some kind of demon. I can't do something like climbing over other people's corpses to get to the top, and neither are these two girls. So, if you've always wanted to be the chairman, then give it a try! Do it until you're satisfied."

“Takakaze…” Now that things had come to this point, Nogi Hideki had no reason to refuse. He nodded solemnly, “Thank you!”

...Humans are very gossipy creatures, always full of curiosity, and possess an efficient communication system. Before Kanon even returned to the beach, the news that Nogi Hideki had been persuaded by Suoh Mieko to become the president of the Kengan Association had already spread everywhere.

"Oh, did you hear? Ms. Kushida! Chairman Nogi has really become the leader of the Kengan Association!" Akiyama Kaede, the beautiful secretary of Yamashita Trading, saw her colleague, Kushida Rin, in the crowd. The two hugged each other excitedly and cheered.

"This is truly a miraculous turnaround from a desperate situation! It's fantastic!" Akiyama Kaede was overjoyed. "We must tell President Yamashita such great news! Where is he?"

Kushida was also puzzled: "Oh, Mr. Ohma is also missing. Are they together?"

Yes, Kazuo and Ohma are indeed together.

They're together! They're together! ~.jpg

The two traversed the dense forest and arrived at a high cliff overlooking the sea. A strong wind blew, and as they gazed at the boundless ocean, the fatigue of the past few days vanished—this fatigue was not just from the life-or-death match, but also accumulated within Tokita Ohma after his continuous battles.

"What a remote place. If I had to find my way here myself, it would probably have taken until nightfall," Kazuo remarked.

"Yes, that's right." The journey had not been easy for Tokita Ohma either. The injuries in his body had accumulated to a considerable degree, and he almost vomited blood just from walking these few steps. Although he tried his best to hold it in, a few strands of blood still flowed down the corner of his mouth.

Faced with this wonderful world, Ohma was also filled with emotion: "It has been ten years since I left 'Central'. I have fought with all sorts of guys. I also settled things with Kiryu Setsuna at this tournament. If it weren't for Hanane, I would probably be dead by now... It has been a long journey."

"Ahem, you're welcome."

As soon as Cao Cao was mentioned, Hanon arrived. Kazuo and Ohma turned around and saw Hanon emerge from the forest.

Wang Ma asked in confusion, "Why are you here?"

"It's all because someone asked me to," Hanon complained. "If I hadn't run into Ms. Akiyama at the beach, who was urgently looking for you two, I wouldn't have wanted to get involved in your private time!"

Yifu blushed, but Wangma remained calm (cough cough, it's obvious who the female lead is), and simply replied, "Okay, I understand, let's go down now."

Hua Yin didn't say much, as long as the message was delivered. However, before parting, she still gave Wang Ma a few words of advice: "I ran into Dr. Yingchu on my way here. He also asked me to pass on a message to you: don't get into any fights for the next two or three years, or your life will be in danger at any time! Your body has been almost completely worn out. Don't push yourself too hard. You won't be so lucky to meet me again next time."

“…I understand.” Wang Ma nodded, paused for a moment, and then said, “Thank you.” After another pause, Wang Ma added, “Using divine power is too taxing on the body, so you should use it sparingly.”

Kanon truly deserves to be called Ohma's savior.

Yamashita Kazuo was also very grateful to Hanon. Before leaving, he bowed deeply to Hanon. Because it was so formal, Hanon felt quite embarrassed. She waved goodbye to the two of them. Kazuo and Ohma went down the mountain to find the two female secretaries, while Hanon continued to wander around the area.

Along the way, Kanon met the captains of the Guardians, including Aioi, whom she knew very well. The two greeted each other, and Kanon learned that these people had just mourned their comrades who had sacrificed their lives in the Deathmatch.

The rebellion of Toyo Electric Power, Kiryu Setsuna's rampage, and the clandestine activities of various mysterious forces have resulted in the tragic deaths of over twenty guardians during this deadly elimination tournament. Deeply moved by their camaraderie, the captains, their expressions solemn, had no time for further conversation with Kanon, simply greeting her before departing.

Only Xiang Sheng and Hanon spoke a few more words: "Miss Hanon... I really didn't expect you to be a woman. It was really presumptuous of me to challenge you that night."

"Not at all." Hanon always treated people with such a serious personality with courtesy: "The wrestling match with you gave me a lot of inspiration and helped me develop new technologies. You also deserve some credit for defeating the wakazuki samurai." As she spoke, Hanon patted Aioi on the shoulder: "From now on, we are friends, so don't be shy."

Aisei was very happy. Wakazaki was a veteran powerhouse among fighters with outstanding strength. Aisei naturally knew that he was no match for Wakazaki, but he was already very satisfied and happy to be able to contribute to defeating "Fierce Tiger".

"Miss Hanon, I'm very happy that you're willing to be my friend. Our strengths are too far apart, and you're the eldest daughter of the Eagle Wind family, a favored daughter of heaven. I really don't have much to help you with... How about this, in the future, if you have any questions about American football, you can come to me. I was once the ace of the national team, so I can help you a little."

"Oh..." Hanon wondered what connection she had with American football. She was about to refuse when she suddenly remembered the group of American football team members from her high school that she had met when she went to America. She had been busy with the Kengan Association recently and had forgotten about them. Now that she suddenly remembered them, Hanon had a mysterious feeling. Maybe she would meet them again?

"Alright, I'll definitely come to you with any questions about American football."

Author's Note: That's right, the later casual episodes will include scenes from *Eyeshield 21*. For those unfamiliar with this anime, I recommend it; it's a fantastic long-running sports anime, and the previous work by the artist behind *One-Punch Man*.

The next chapter will be the final chapter of the Kengan Deathmatch. Well, anyway, the last few days have been mostly lighthearted content. We've gone through hundreds of thousands of words of long battles, so the previous few chapters were just regular slice-of-life scenes.

Finally, regarding the Baki plot I mentioned yesterday, I'll still be debating whether to start from the death row arc or the earlier tournament. Baki's story will have to wait a while before we get to the main plot. Kanon needs to experience high school life first, and by the way... cough cough, show off a bit.

Section 261, Chapter 259: Watching the Cowherd and Weaver Girl Stars

By the time Hana wandered back to the beach from the cliffs and forests, the sun had completely set behind the horizon, the moon was high in the sky, illuminating the crashing waves, and night had fallen.

The party continued, and most people were still reveling. Hanon strolled along, seeing many more people.

First, at the beach bar, Kanon saw the fisherman Uncle Horo Yoshiaki. This uncle was the first formidable opponent Kanon faced in the final match. Once he gained the advantage of terrain, he was no less troublesome than Kiryu Setsuna, Mikazuki Zero, and Go Raian.

However, after being defeated by Kanon, He Lu's employer, Midai Suisan, has joined Suoh Seigetsu's camp. The two sides are already very familiar with each other, and they will probably have many new collaborations in the future! Kanon and He Lu didn't say much, just exchanged greetings, which was enough for them to say hello.

However, He Lu has two other people by her side who won't easily "let go" of Hua Yin.

"Hahaha, I never expected that Flavo would be such a delicate beauty. He Lu, you knew all along, but you didn't tell me, did you?" The speaker was wrestler Guan Linchun. He and He Lu became close friends at this conference and would drink together during every break.

"Ah, Fu, Fu, Hana, Hana... Miss Hana, hello." The other person next to Guan Lin was Kono Haruo. This chubby young man had become Guan Lin's apprentice, so he had been guarding Guan Lin's vicinity. He had also fought with Hana long ago, and at this moment he recognized that Hana was the "Valkyrie" he had encountered after his Kengan debut battle.

Recalling how "bastard" he had been back then, Haruo was filled with shame and couldn't speak to Kanon. Instead, Kanon comforted him, saying, "The past is the past. You should follow Uncle Guanlin and start anew. I believe you will become stronger."

"Hahaha—" Guan Lin interrupted Hua Yin: "You little girl, yet you try to act mature and lecture people. Plus, you disguised yourself as a boy the whole time without being discovered. Your acting skills are definitely those of a genius wrestler. How about it, do you want to come to my Super Japan Wrestling Show?"

"This...hehe, never mind." Kanrin's personality was the type she wasn't good at dealing with. She apologized and tried to run away, but as soon as she turned around, she was thrown into a very warm embrace...uh, that was Soryuin Shion. Her figure was really...not bad...

For a moment, Hanon could hardly breathe. After struggling to break free, she saw Shion and Izumi beside her.

Oh my, it seems like these two have really rekindled their old flame?

However, Hanon still didn't want to pay attention to this guy she had just met, and only greeted Shion. Shion was an acquaintance of Hanon, and Shion had kept her secret identity from her, which made Hanon feel quite guilty.

"Um, Sister Ziyin, I'm sorry."

"...It's alright." Ziyin took a drag of her cigarette. "I never expected that Zhu Mei could make such an outstanding friend like you. You're already the new champion of the Kengan Association. What are your plans for the future? I just saw your uncle. He said you're looking for a place to study. How about coming to our Imperial Sakura Academy?"

"Hmm... let me think about it some more." Kanon didn't agree immediately. It wasn't that the beautiful girls like Soryuin Akemi and Sakura Hibiki weren't appealing; it was just that Kanon wasn't used to the fact that Kouzakura Academy was an all-girls school. In her previous life in China, Kanon had always attended public schools, but she had never experienced school life surrounded by girls, and she always felt that something was missing... passion.

Speaking of passion, Kanon actually has a target school in mind: Shohoku High School in Kanagawa Prefecture. It's not far from Tokyo, so it's convenient to travel there by train. The key point is that the plot of "Slam Dunk" is one of the few anime stories that Kanon is familiar with. Just thinking about observing it up close is quite exciting.

The only pity is that Kanon is a girl and cannot personally go on the field to play. Even if Kanon were to go on the field now... cough cough, the opposing team would probably be full of injured players after about two minutes, and there wouldn't be enough players to play.

Oh dear, being invincible is so lonely... Well, the loneliness of being invincible doesn't exist. The only problem is Kanon's choice of high school next.

After bidding farewell to everyone at the bar, Kanon headed towards the beach. On the way, she saw Oni-Oh Sanzun being forced to drink by his two older brothers. He was so drunk that he could barely speak. When he saw Kanon approaching, he simply raised his hand in a sumo wrestling stance and said, "Kanon, let's have a sumo match next time we meet!"

Hanako sighed, realizing that drunk people were really incoherent, so she could only offer a few perfunctory words and hurriedly say goodbye.

Mogi Robinson, who was injured, was being pushed in a wheelchair by his sister Elena and was already returning to his residence. The siblings thanked Kanon again.

After thanking him, Maoji was still indignant towards Wu Lei'an: "That bastard, once I recover from my injuries, I will definitely hone my skills and take revenge on him!"

Well, all Kanon could do was wish him good luck, while inwardly complaining that the gap between Mogi and Wu Lei'an was just too big...

"By the way, why don't I see Garuda?" Hana asked, as she had a lot to say to Garuda.
