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

"Beep—" The referee's whistle blew: "Time's up, Royal City failed to score the touchdown, the game is over, 29 to 27, Demigate Bats—wins!"

Section 317, Chapter 313: The Best Lineup!

With Wang Cheng's attempt to score a last-minute touchdown failing, Deemon emerged victorious, thus concluding the Autumn Tokyo Tournament.

This is not a national tournament where a single loss would mean elimination. In fact, both the victorious Nimon and the defeated Ojo have already earned their tickets to the national tournament. This battle is mainly about honor. Victory is something to be happy about, but there is no need to be sad about defeat.

Seijuro also stood up and looked at "Lightspeed Masked Man 23", which is Kanon.

“I never imagined that there would be such a strong player as you in the high school world.” A-Jin’s voice was firm and calm: “I hope we can face off again in the national competition.”

"Yes, I will." Having won a match, and without the exhaustion she felt in the previous Kengan Tournament elimination rounds, Kanon was able to fully enjoy the joy of victory and demonstrate the demeanor of a victor.

Ajin turned around and went to find Sena again. After all, compared to the mysterious Kanon, Sena and Ajin were rivals with a deeper history.

"Kobakawa Sena, you have finally surpassed me. Next time we fight, it will be my turn to be the challenger."

“Ajin…” Sena had accumulated a lot of injuries during the competition and had grown a lot. Facing Ajin, he swallowed hard and did not choose to be humble or weak. Instead, he solemnly replied, “I… will become stronger by then!”

"That's right!" Ajin reached out and shook hands with Sena tightly, which moved Kanon, who was not far away, deeply—a good rival and a good friend, this is what youthful passion is all about!

Next came the awards ceremony. As captain of Deimon, Hiruma strode forward and took the championship flag, symbolizing victory. This guy actually raised the flag in one hand and fired a machine gun into the air with the other, startling the ceremonial attendants nearby. He was truly arrogant. The chairman of the Kanto American Football Association, who came to present the awards, remained calm. He was reportedly a former national team player in American football, and certainly a figure of some importance.

"Next, we will announce the All-Star lineup." The chairman began announcing the list: "All-Star Offensive Lineup: Forwards, Hashiraya Shinjiro, Yamamoto Kihei; Demon Mabuchi, Kurita Yoshihiro; Ojo White Knights, Andoda Yoshinori; Western Fielders, Babayama Oguri; Giants Poseidon, Mizumachi Kengo; Wingers, Hanto Spider, Akabane Hayato; Quarterbacks, Demon Mabuchi, Hiruma Yoichi; Receiving Players, Western Fielders, Tetsuma Jo; Ojo White Knights, Sakuraba Haruto; Running Backs, Western Fielders, Kaitani Riku; Demon Mabuchi, Kobayakawa Sena."

On the offensive side, each team displayed its best, with several strong teams having players on the list. Hiruma's selection was somewhat unexpected. While he is the best playmaker, Kidd of the Western Conference is also an excellent player with incredibly fast and sharp passing. If Deimon hadn't narrowly won their head-to-head matchup, Kidd would likely have been the best quarterback.

"Hehehe, it seems I've outmaneuvered that stinky caterpillar eyebrow." Hiruzen looked at Kidd, his formidable opponent, and secretly felt a little fortunate: "If we hadn't added that stinky young lady to our team and kept putting pressure on Kidd throughout the entire match, the final outcome would have been very uncertain!"

That's true. Although Kanon only played two really hard-fought games in the West and the Royal, her performance was the cornerstone of Deimon's defense. In a team with terrible defense, she stood out from the crowd and was incredibly dazzling. It was thanks to her that Deimon was able to defeat these two super strong teams and win the championship in the Tokyo tournament.

Sure enough, when the All-Defensive Team was announced next, Kanon was on the list: "All-Defensive Team: Forwards, Ojo White Knights, Makoto Otawara; Ojo White Knights, Naoki Uemura; Ojo White Knights, Yorihiro Watanabe; Western Rangers, Ooku Niujima; Safety, Ojo White Knights, Souta Waist; Ojo White Knights, Tadashi Tsurime; Cornerback, Ojo White Knights, Hiroyuki Iguchi; Ojo White Knights, Rintaro Zetsujima; Linebacker, Ojo White Knights, Seijuro Susumu; Giant Poseidon, Shun Kakei; Deimon Demon Bat, Lightspeed Masked Man 23..."

In the audience, Raimon Taro nudged Sena and laughed, "That Eyespeed Masked Man 23 is so mysterious, even the people presenting the awards don't know his name."

Sena didn't answer; his legs were a little weak—not from exhaustion, but from lingering fear: "The defense team was almost entirely composed of Royal Castle's forces. What on earth were we fighting just now?!"

So, the Royal White Knights truly deserve their reputation as Japan's top defensive team. Their defensive line was almost completely transplanted into the tournament's defensive lineup, making them incredibly formidable. However, Sena's lingering fear ended there, because the chairman then directly called on his name: "Finally, the MVP of the Autumn Tournament is... Deimon Demon Bat, Kobayakawa Sena."

"What? It's me?" Before Sena could think any further, she was pushed onto the podium by her laughing teammates. She bowed weakly and without any spirit as she received the laptop provided by the sponsor as a prize.

"Clap clap clap..." The entire audience and all the players in the tournament applauded for Sena, and Kanon was no exception. She didn't care about the so-called MVP trophy, and as a teammate, watching Sena break through strong opponents time and time again gave Kanon a sense of satisfaction, like a mother hen, that her own child had finally succeeded.

“Actually… I have some doubts.” Stepping off the podium, Rusena was enjoying the cheers. The chairman of the Kanto American Football Association said to another tall man in a suit on the sidelines, “I have two other candidates for MVP. One is Shin Seijuro from Ojo. His individual ability is beyond doubt. He has worked hard throughout the entire tournament and is the number one defensive anchor. If Ojo wins first place, I will award the MVP to him without hesitation.”

"Secondly, there's the 'Lightning Masked Man 23' from the Deimon team. He's incredibly versatile, playing a crucial role in both the Western and Royal games, excelling on both offense and defense. However, I can see that his American football skills are still developing; he's still a rough diamond. Plus, his mysterious nature and reluctance to reveal his true identity might indicate some unspeakable secret. If he can continue to hone his skills and take another step forward in the upcoming national tournament, perhaps the future of Japanese American football rests on his shoulders!"

This chairman appears calm and collected, but he's actually an incredibly passionate guy. He speaks with such fervor that he practically ignites the air around him, brimming with ambition and determination...

"You're still so overly enthusiastic." The man in the suit shrugged. "Don't even think about it. I know the details of that 'Flashy Mask 23.' He's very strong, but the Japanese American football world can't count on him. You should be satisfied if he can successfully complete the national tournament."

"Huh? What's his background?" The chairman was taken aback. He didn't expect that his old friend, who had been away from American football for many years, would know the young player's identity when he came to visit him!

By this time, the players had already left the field. Most of the Deimon players had returned to the locker room to celebrate their victory, but Kanon, fearing her identity would be exposed, had found a secluded place, quietly changed her clothes, and returned to the stands to reunite with Miho and Adam.

"It cannot be said, it cannot be said. I am not close to that person." The man in the suit refused to reveal Hana's identity.

Knowing his old friend's temperament, the chairman didn't ask any further questions: "You really do keep things a secret... Xiang Sheng."

Yes, the burly man in the suit is the same person who met Kanon on the island of Yuri, the squad leader of the Kagen family's guards, Xiang Sheng.

Author's Note: These two chapters are also a transitional phase, providing an update on the Kengan Association's situation.

Section 318, Chapter 314: The Toothless Annihilator

In the parking lot, Hanon and the others met Aioi.

It was really easy for the two groups to meet. Xiang Sheng was 199 cm tall and weighed 126 kg, while Adam was 192 cm tall and weighed 107 kg. Both were rare strong men, and they could spot each other in a crowd at a glance. It was hard not to notice each other.

"Xiang Sheng?" Hana was deeply surprised. "I didn't expect to see you here."

Aisei smiled and said, "Actually, I was quite surprised too. Ms. Kanon, you actually came to play rugby. In the game just now, you actually withstood the onslaught of so many players from the Royal Team at the end. That was truly amazing!"

"Not at all," Hana said modestly. "It's just a small job, enough to keep a few high school students at bay."

Well, in terms of hand-to-hand combat, probably ten Aioi wouldn't be a match for Kanon. But if the premise is to avoid injury, and the fight takes place within the framework of American football, then Aioi's size and strength are too advantageous. Especially in multi-person combat, the sources of power are chaotic and complex. Even "Oni-Ao" is helpless. Kanon becomes a small boat in the ocean before breaking through in the final moments, while Aioi can break through with brute force. This is what it means to specialize in one's own field.

Of course, now that Kanon has had an epiphany, as long as she practices more and fully masters that new technique, she will reach a higher level in both martial arts and American football.

It was a rare opportunity to run into an old friend, so Hanon invited Aisei to dinner. Aisei waved his hand and said, "I appreciate your kind offer, but I have official business to attend to in Tokyo, so I won't bother you any longer."

"Business?" Hua Yin asked curiously, "Is the old man from the film source going to make another move?"

At this point, Hanon couldn't help but tense up. That old man, Katahara Metsudo, was a shrewd fellow; you could never predict what he'd do next. He'd held the top spot in Japan's financial world for decades, a veritable underground emperor. Now that he'd stepped down as chairman of Kengan, he must be feeling restless. Could it be that he's already tired of the emptiness and is preparing to stir up trouble again?

When asked about his purpose, Xiang Sheng sighed, "Alas, to my shame, I have come to find a candidate for the seventh generation of the Fang of Destroyer."

“Oh, no wonder. I heard that Gana left the Kaga family... Wait a minute, I remember that Gana was the fifth generation of the Fang of Metsudo. Could it be that…” Kanon was surprised.

Xiang Sheng nodded sadly: "Yes, after Gana, the Katagen family has replaced the Fang of Destroyer. He is the strongest expert among the new generation of Guardians, a promising member, whose strength may not be inferior to Gana's."

"Not inferior to Gana..." Hanon pondered to herself, "Gana is such a powerful guy, is his strength just commonplace? I'm about the same as Gana, and now suddenly another expert of similar skill has appeared... Ahhh, what should I do if I feel so discouraged!"

The rude man, Aisei, didn't care about Kanon's feelings and continued, "But that bastard... Yumahama... he betrayed us! He abandoned his position as the Fang of Destroyer and quickly switched sides to Purgatory."

"Purgatory?" Hanon thought for a long time but couldn't recall it. However, Miho explained, "Purgatory is the second largest underground fighting competition in Japan. It has always posed a great threat to Kengan, and it can be said to be a situation of almost two dominant forces. Kengan and Purgatory have almost monopolized the underground fighting world in Japan. Starting from Bishamon, who is ranked third, their strength has declined significantly."

Adam added, "Ahem, that's right. Nezu, who lost to me in the final match, was the absolute king of Bishamon before he switched to Kengan. This shows that Bishamon's strength ceiling is still below mine."

Xiang Sheng spread his hands: "So that guy treated the title of 'Fang of Destruction' as a stepping stone from the very beginning, using the Katahara family as a springboard to obtain the exorbitant poaching fees from Purgatory. Once he achieved his goal, he left without looking back, even seriously injuring several colleagues who tried to stop him!"

"Holy crap, that's some serious skill..." Hana sighed. The guards she had met on Yuanliu Island were all loyal and righteous people who were devoted to the Pianyuan Miedang. She never expected there to be such a treacherous person who would betray his principles for personal gain, and one who was even a master comparable to Gana Ae. This proved that there was no necessary connection between cultivation level and character. As long as a despicable person had high talent and worked hard enough, he could also become an unparalleled expert.

“Now that a new Fang of Metsudo cannot be chosen, there’s a lack of successors. There are no longer any figures who can reach the level of Kano and Yumahama. So we, the guardians, have been taking turns searching for powerful newcomers to join us, hoping to select the seventh Fang of Metsudo as soon as possible.” Aioi said, glancing at Hanon, “Miss Hanon, although it was somewhat rude, as the new king of the Kengan Association, your strength is beyond doubt. If you would be willing…”

"I refuse." Kanon interrupted Aioi directly, while Miho kept coughing—Aioi was really grasping at straws in his desperation to poach someone's boyfriend and boss in front of them.

"Ah, so it really won't work." Aioi had only said it casually, and after being rejected, he stopped talking and quickly took his leave.

On the way back, Miho put her arm around Hanon and said, "Hey, Hanon, it seems there's a lot of undercurrents going on at the Kengan Association. I thought things would be stable for a while after Nogi took over." This girl was unusually worried. In the end, although Miho was growing rapidly, her foundation was too weak, and she still hadn't shaken off the image of that clueless little girl who took over the family business.

"The waves keep surging and the storms will never subside. In fact, President Nogi has already sheltered us from many storms!" Kanon comforted her softly.

However, Kanon also felt uneasy. The competition between Kengan and Rengoku was one thing, but was the attack by the mysterious assassin a while ago related to this? If not, then where did the so-called "assassin using Chinese martial arts" come from? The assassin's purpose was clear: he was only targeting her and it was a kidnapping. Therefore, it was not aimed at the Takakaze family or the enemies of Motorbike Head Motorbike, but at "Yo Kanon".

Who is Kanon? Besides being the "new champion of the Kengan Association," a "martial arts master," and the "heir of the Takakaze family," what else is she?

"Perhaps...it's related to the paternal lineage of this body?" Hanon searched for the original owner's memories, but her parents in this life were very silent about their identities. She didn't even know that her mother was from the Eagle Wind family, and the situation with her father was equally unknown.

"Sigh, I have absolutely no idea... Maybe there's some secret on my father's side of the Ye family? Could it be Ip Man? Hahaha..." Hana could only let her imagination run wild.

Adam drove the car out of the city. After the intense competition, Kanon finally felt tired and fell into a deep sleep leaning against Miho in the car.

Section 319, Chapter 315: The Birth of Announcer Kanon

The new world that Kanon transmigrated to was largely the same as the world before her transmigration, but there were some differences in the details. For example, for Kanon, who lived in the mobile internet era, the mobile signal here was really bad!

Of course, things always move in a positive direction. Base stations are constantly being built, and various websites and apps are constantly being developed. This era is in the nascent stage of mobile internet. People have somewhat unresponsive map navigation, very rudimentary shopping websites, and forums that are mainly for text-based discussions. The old PC network is at its zenith, and the emerging smartphone is rising rapidly. Many new things are gradually entering people's lives...

"Hey, hey, Manana~ Do you know about panda fighting?"

Two girls were walking to school. The one fiddling with her phone was a short-haired girl with an ordinary appearance and glasses. She was Mitani Chio, a student from Samejima Middle School whom Kanon had met before.

"Huh? I don't know, what is that?"

Accompanying Chio was a girl with twin ponytails named Manana, Chio's best friend. Upon hearing this, she stopped and waited for Chio's answer.

"This is the latest live streaming app! Look at the logo, it's an angry panda, so cute, haha! I heard you can even make money streaming, and if you do well, your income is about the same as an office worker!" Qianxu, who often plays games, is quite familiar with electronic devices. She spoke with a look of longing: "I watched some videos, and then an idea came to me..."

"Hey, you wouldn't be thinking...?" Manana knows her friend too well; Chio's tone...

"I might be able to do it too!" Qianxu said.

Manana sighed, "As expected... here we go again... Chio, you always lose interest in things after just three minutes... Besides, given your interests, shouldn't you be focusing on streaming your gaming at home?"

"I feel so shy doing a live stream by myself!" But Chio didn't say that out loud. Instead, she kept encouraging Manana: "Well, it's good that we're doing a live stream together now, isn't it? Okay, then—let's start the live stream!"

"Hey! Don't make decisions for others without my permission!" Manana immediately snapped, but when Chio's camera panned to her, the very image-conscious Manana instantly put on a smiling face: "Hi everyone~"

Cough cough, what a skilled actress in disguise.

However, after Manana tried to act cute for a while, Chio suddenly said, "What? There are zero viewers..."

"Hey, Chio, why didn't you say so sooner!" Manana pounced on him to grab the phone, and the two girls started bickering. This actually attracted a few viewers, and the number of people in the live stream began to increase.

Congratulations! The new streamer, Chio-chan, has been born!

The two girls walked slowly, chatting and laughing along the way. Manana was really pretty. Chio filmed her with the camera, and the number of viewers in the live stream quickly approached one hundred. Especially later, when Manana picked up a stray cat that had wandered into the frame, Chio's camera angle was very "tricky," just barely touching the edge of the scene, which caused the number of comments in the live stream to increase dramatically.

"Nice, photographer deserves a bonus!" "Not bad at all." "Actually, this is for the best..."

With more viewers in the live stream, a happy problem arose. Chio was mortified: "Damn it, doesn't this mean I've become a cameraman just filming Manana? I'm not a tool! I need to find some of my own material!"

So Chio grabbed her phone and started randomly fiddling with it, waving it around everywhere. Surprisingly, it actually worked; the camera captured a perverted thief who roamed the rooftops, stealing underwear that was drying in the sun.

"Ah, there's a thief!" "Go, streamer! Catch him!" "At least call the police..." The crowd in the live stream chatted, which got Qianxu excited, and she rushed over without thinking.

Although the girl was not particularly attractive, her athletic ability was so good that even Kanon was impressed. She was far superior to the average high school girl. In addition, she was light in weight and managed to climb onto the roof by stepping on a telephone pole, which shocked the live stream audience.
