"Agon's pass, Unsui's pass, Ikkyu's receiving, and Agon's running formation and Unsui's running formation..." The members of Deimon, especially Tokisena and Monta, realized how terrifying the "Flying Dragon" formation was. This was indeed a tactic that made full use of the star players of Shinryuji, and it was indeed impossible for Deimon to defend against it.

Of course, there were also stubborn people. Koyo boldly shouted, "Not tired!" This is a powerful phrase. Kurita explained, "Koyo said that we, full of passion, are not afraid of challenges. Everyone who has experienced the Death March does not feel tired. If we continue to launch an attack, we can exhaust the Vajra Agon's physical strength, and then Shenlong Temple will show its weakness."

“That’s impossible.” Hirumon said with a grim face, “I’ve known that stinky black head for a long time. I’ve never seen him run out of energy in my entire life… That’s the difference in physical talent. No matter how much we struggle, we’re the first to fall.”

However, Hiruma quickly put on a smiling face: "Hehehe, actually the situation is much better than I imagined. Originally, to defeat Shinryuji, we needed to meet many conditions at the same time, but now we have Lightspeed Mask 23, so we have many choices."

Hiruma pointed at Hanon: "Hey, for the next attack, you'll play as either running back or wide receiver."

"Choose one?" Hanon was taken aback. "Is it that flexible?"

"Freedom? No, I didn't finish my sentence. This shouldn't be your choice." Hiruma shook his head and turned to Sena and Monta: "Eyeshield 23 will replace one of you to face off against Agon or Ikkyu. The remaining person still needs one of you to fight... Sena defeats Agon, or Monta defeats Ikkyu, who of you is more confident?"

Well, both Sena and Monta felt pressured facing two geniuses renowned in the Japanese American football world, but they had overcome many obstacles over the years, so they were confident in the face of strong opponents... In the end, Monta, being more outgoing and more persistent in receiving the ball, stepped forward first: "I will continue to fight Ikkyu until I surpass him and become the best receiver in Japan!"

"Alright." Hiruzen didn't waste any time and made a quick decision: "Sena will use his speed to pounce on Unsui, while Lightspeed Masked Man 23 will move forward and be responsible for running around when attacking, and keeping a close eye on Agon when defending!"

Although she felt a little apologetic to the disappointed Sena, Kanon was quite satisfied with the arrangement. She tightened her gloves, looked in the direction of the Shinryuji players, and said softly, "...That's exactly what I was thinking."

Uh, here's a picture of the Indonesian female martial artist I mentioned at noon, named Chintya Candranaya. You can search for her videos; she's quite skilled and very pretty.

Section 329, Chapter 325: Crushing

"Heave-ho, heave-ho—Break!" Kurita Yoshihiro, standing at 196 cm tall and weighing 145 kg, with a bench press of 160 kg, was a top-tier player even within the Kengan Association. When such a person mustered all his strength to push forward, his power was bound to be astonishing. No matter how skilled the players of Shinryuji Butsuryuu were, they were still just ordinary high school students, and naturally, they were pushed around and stumbled, a large crack appearing in their defense.

"What kind of superhuman strength is this? How can Deimon have so many strongmen..." The players on the offensive and defensive lines of Shinryuji cried out in pain. This was the second time in a row that they had encountered a powerful impact. Just now, Kanon had shown them what it meant to be invincible, and now Kurita was giving them another lesson.

However, Shinryuji's offensive and defensive lines were completely helpless against Kanon, but they had a chance against Kurita.

Captain Yamabushi roared, "Damn it! Have you forgotten our pre-match plan? To deal with Kurita, who has no speed, don't try to wrestle, but control and delay! Concentrate your strength on one point—break through!"

Yamabushi's heavy armor, combined with an elbow strike, proved highly effective, hitting Kurita in the stomach. The intense pain caused Kurita to slow his movements, and the Vajra Agon behind Yamabushi seized the opportunity to rush out, delivering a hand chop that pinned Kurita to the ground.

After Kurita fell, Agon faced Hiruzen Yoichi directly.

"Hey, you scumbag, don't even think about passing the ball out!"

Agon stepped forward, about to pin Hiruzen down, but a glance revealed another figure... He quickly dodged and jumped far away to confront the people from the Deimon team who had arrived. Needless to say, it was Kanon.

"You reacted pretty quickly~" Hanon said in a rough voice, her tone teasing. Did Agon run away just now because she was afraid of her?

"Pah, I'm not a masochist." Ahan is very shrewd. Although his temperament is similar to Wu Lei'an's, he is not like the latter who relies purely on brute force. His genius is all-round, and he is even good at learning. He suffered a loss to Hanon in the physical confrontation just now, so he naturally wouldn't be stupid enough to continue to collide with Hanon.

Now that Agon had backed down, Hiruma was able to pass the ball out, and his target was Kobayakawa Sena—Agon being next to Hiruma meant that Shinryuji had no one to contain Sena.

As expected, Sena initiated a run after receiving the ball. Although he failed to score a touchdown, he easily broke through several players and advanced to a position within twenty-odd yards of the scoring zone.

On the next offensive possession, Hiruma followed the same pattern again, passing the ball to Sena. Just as Agon was about to pounce, Kanon blocked his way.

"Hmph, you think you can stop me?" Agon was getting impatient and tried to get rid of Kanon. To achieve his goal, he displayed extremely good abilities. Not only was his movement speed fast, but he could also use a lot of feints. He could even learn about 70% of Sena's famous technique, "Demon Bat Ghost Shadow".

Unfortunately, he encountered Kanon.

Like a monkey running into the Buddha's palm, no matter how much the Agama dodged and weaved, it couldn't get past Kanon's obstruction, and Sena ran further and further away, soon leaving the Agama's defensive range.

"XXX!" Ah-han cursed and finally chose to charge forward with brute force. As expected, she was pinned to the ground by Kanon's hand.

On the other side, Sena had already dodged Shinryuji's blockade and succeeded, allowing Deimon to tie the score again.

The tie didn't last long, and soon Shenlongji scored another touchdown. They used the "Flying Dragon" formation, and after a few passes, Yunshui found Ikkyu. Monta still couldn't handle this genius, and the ball was caught, resulting in a goal.

When Nimon attacked again, Hiruzen passed the ball to Kanon, who dribbled past several players until she faced Agon.

Honestly, Agon's blocking ability is truly formidable. Among his comprehensive talents, the most impressive is his near-zero human reaction time, which is comparable to that of Aguya Kiyoaki in the Fighters. To break through it, one would need to be an absolute master who has reached the "first of the first" level, or to unlock the long-lost "Valkyrie Mode" and surpass Agon's reaction limits in all aspects of physical ability. Otherwise, simply blocking his path would be enough to stop even Kanon...

Well, there's another way: use force to overcome skill.

Agon's figure shifted rapidly, blocking all of Kanon's paths: "Damn it, this time I'll definitely..."

"I'll definitely pin her down again!" With that, Kanon used a chop to send Agon spinning twice. It wasn't that Kanon was particularly strong, but rather that her control over the flow of power had improved to a higher level, allowing her to disrupt others' balance with a casual flick of her wrist.

Once Agon regained his footing, he realized that Kanon hadn't run far, so he chased after her from behind. Then he saw Kanon choose to pass the ball...

Now that he had defeated Agon head-on, Kanon didn't need to fight for pride. Yukihiko was in a much better position than him, and besides, the passing route to Yukihiko was the tactic that Kanon had practiced the most - "Beep - Deimon touchdown".

The score was tied again. Ahan felt powerless and collapsed to his knees. This sense of defeat was the only one he had ever experienced in his life.

Hanon calmly squatted down and smiled at Agon, "Are you convinced now?"

"You!" Ahan was trembling with anger, but this was the first time in his life that he had encountered such an unpredictable opponent, and for a moment he couldn't find a suitable reaction.

"That's incredible... Even A-Ham can find himself in this situation." Jin Gang Yun Shui silently picked up the ball. Compared to A-Ham and his teammates who were panicked by A-Ham's defeat, Yun Shui's mentality was much more determined: "I firmly believe that A-Ham is the strongest genius, and I also firmly believe that the 'Flying Dragon' formation cannot be broken! Everyone, cheer up, it's just a tie now, and we still have possession of the ball!"

Indeed, Shinryuji had two aces, Agon and Ikkyu, and Unsui, whose technique and awareness were both top-notch, was also a strong point. The "Flying Dragon" formation's performance on the offensive end was obvious to all. For a time, the situation was similar to the two matches in the West and the Royal City. Demon and Shinryuji scored points back and forth, and neither could defend against the other's attack. The score went up and down. During this period, Shinryuji successfully used tactics and took advantage of Agon's sudden attack to force Demon to score a suicide point. Demon, on the other hand, scored one more goal than Shinryuji in the extra points because of Musashi's extremely high kicking success rate. At the end of the first half, Demon was 28 to 36, trailing by eight points.

During the halftime break, Agon remained silent and did not even sit down. Instead, he stared intently at the Deimon rest area in the distance. In the past few tens of minutes, although Shinryuji Buddha Dragon had suppressed the Deimon Demon Bat, he himself had been suppressed. No matter the method, the timing, or the situation, as long as he faced that person, he could neither defend nor break through.

"What a silent killing intent! Since our first encounter with Shinseijuro last year, Agon hasn't shown such an expression." The old monk coach of Shinryuji Temple sighed, "Is it because of Lightspeed Mask 23? He is indeed an unexpectedly strong player, whose talent even Agon cannot match... But the competition between geniuses is only part of the game. If we maintain this momentum, we will ultimately win."

As for Kanon, the "culprit" who caused Agon's mental breakdown, she was leisurely resting in a chair. Rin handed her a water bottle. Seeing Kanon drinking water quietly, she suddenly blurted out, "Lightspeed Masked Man 23, his skin is really good!"

"Pfft—" Hana sprayed out all the water she had just put in her mouth.

Section 330, Chapter 326: Emptying the Bank

"Cough cough, cough cough..." Even the strongest person will cough if they choke on water, and Kanon, who was hit hard by Rin's words, was no exception.

Rinne's eyes were full of curiosity, and she was about to ask more questions when Hiruma suddenly came over and helped Kanon out of the predicament.

Hiruma pulled Hanon aside and said, "Hehehe, you performed well in the first half, much better than expected."

Hanon knew immediately there was more to come: "But?"

"But the situation still favors Shinryuji." Hiruma said bluntly, "Shinryuji will undoubtedly continue to use 'Flying Dragon' in the second half. If we can't stop their attacks, we'll be ground down like this until the end!"

Although it was hidden behind opaque lenses, Hana raised an eyebrow: "So?"

"Hehehe, how did you know I had a plan?" Hiruzen revealed his signature smile: "In the second half, you can..."

"Beep—The second half of the game begins."

With the referee's whistle, Musashi Yane kicked the ball far away, signaling that Shinryuji would launch an attack from their own scoring zone in the second half.

As everyone expected, Shenlong Temple launched its attack using the "Flying Dragon" formation. Yunshui kicked off, passing the ball to Agon. Kanon rushed towards Agon, who then passed the ball back to Yunshui.

Previously, at this stage, Kanon would stay by Agon's side for man-to-man defense, while Kobayakawa Sena would pounce on Unsui. However, this time Kanon didn't stop. Instead, with an incredibly strong and powerful momentum, like a "cosmic phantom," she turned and charged towards Unsui. Unsui was focused on Sena, and before he knew it, Kanon was already very close to him.

"Wh-what?" Yunshui's thoughts were only focused on this point when she was knocked to the ground by Huayin's powerful impact. Her whole body felt like it was falling apart, and at the same time, possession of the ball was returned to Nimen.

Just a moment ago, the offensive and defensive lines were clashing, the outside receivers were man-to-man marking, and Kanon and Sena went to tackle Unsui together, while Shinryuji's star player Agon was left unmarked.

"They actually completely abandoned the Vajra Agama..." the commentator sighed. "This is truly the boldest choice I've ever seen in my commentary career."

"Hehehe, that stinky black man is a force to be reckoned with, which is why we should ignore him~" Hiruma was overjoyed that the plan had succeeded. This change of possession not only prevented the score from widening further, but also gave Deimon a chance to close the gap. The offensive tactics of running backs Kanon and Sena had been proven to be successful, and Shinryuji could not stop them.

In fact, Hiruzen allowed Kanon to fight Agon one-on-one throughout the first half, not only to dampen his spirits, but also to create the illusion that Kanon and Agon were bound together, all for the purpose of a surprise attack.

"You, you bastard, you scum!" Ah-Han gritted his teeth. He had just been trying his best in the second half, but his pride was hit again.

When it was Deimon's turn to attack, it was the same familiar routine: Kanon and Sena as running backs, with Agon on top only focusing on Kanon, so Sena's advance was very rapid.

"Mudgate team advances 10 yards."

"Mudgate team advances 8 yards."

"Mudgate team advances 11 yards..."

Little by little, the Nimon army has reached the city gates, and they are only one step away from taking points from the Shenlong Temple team.

Wiping away their sweat, the two players faced off in front of the Shinryuji scoring zone: "At such a short distance, Sena's charge is no longer very meaningful. What follows is a contest of strength."

Of course, even in a power contest, Kanon wouldn't lose to anyone... well, that is, if there aren't too many people around.

After the kickoff, Hiruma indeed made a passing motion toward Kanon—a feint. Since Shinryuji had a preconceived notion that Deimon would use the power of Lightspeed Mask 23 to finish the last few yards, why not bypass this situation where Kanon was outnumbered and choose other teammates instead?

Hiruma's true pass was to Yukimitsu. The ball flew quickly and was about to be handed to Yukimitsu when suddenly someone appeared from the side—Kongo Agon!

"A-Agon?!" Hiruma was stunned, and even Kanon was taken aback. While most of the Shinryuji players were preparing to rush over to stop him, Agon actually gave up guarding Kanon?

"Hmph, trash is trash. Did you think I'd stay so hot-headed forever? Dream on!" Agon raised his hand and knocked away Hiruzen's pass. The ball hit the ground, bounced up, and rolled away into the distance.

Deserving of the title of genius, Agon not only realized Hiruma's passing route earlier than anyone else, but also calmed down from being overwhelmed by Kanon earlier than anyone expected. Instead, he took advantage of people's habitual thinking and left Kanon unmarked to intercept the ball, just as Kanon had left him unmarked to intercept Unsui earlier.

After a pause of about half a second, Hiruzen roared, "Steal the ball!"

This shout also woke up the other players from Deimon and Shinryuji, who all ran towards the ball, trying to control it. A chaotic scene ensued in front of the scoring area, culminating in Kurita leaping up and using his massive body to pin everyone down.

Now even Kanon is unable to move...

"Wow! Kurita's super-heavy smash! Now everyone's truly 'equal'!" The commentator slammed his fist on the table and jumped up: "Where's the ball? Where did the ball go?"

The ball rolled to Hu Yezhuang's feet, where he picked it up.

As the one of the "Haha Three Brothers" who is known for his strength but is slightly slower, he arrived at the battle zone two steps late. He just happened to avoid Kurita's indiscriminate downward pressure and also happened to get the ball. After the chaos, almost all the players from both teams tripped and fell together, and there was no open space in front of Toha.

"Touchdown, Toyo!" Jumonji shouted.

As if waking from a dream, Toha ran towards the scoring area, but a terrifying shadow immediately appeared behind him—Kongo Agon! Thanks to the ultimate human reaction speed, he not only saw through Hiruma's passing line, but also anticipated Kurita's downward pressure and successfully avoided it. Finally, he also caught up with Toha with his superhuman strength, grabbed him from behind, and was about to complete the tackle!

Terrifying indeed! Terrifying indeed!

"Cough!" Toba felt like he was about to vomit blood! But he didn't fall to the ground, nor did he let go of the ball.

"Ouch, you beast... So even guys like this have been suppressed by that masked guy all this time?" Toba gritted his teeth, with Agon hanging on his body, but still took a step forward: "But we're Deimon players too, how can we let that masked guy show off all the time?"

Toba took a second step: "I may not be as good as those ace players, but I'll stake our dignity as delinquents on it, and we'll make it through those last few centimeters no matter what!"

Toyo took a third step, or rather, moved a few centimeters, but that little bit of movement was enough for him to step into Shinryuji's scoring zone.
