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

Guo Chuncheng was barefoot, his forehead was sweaty, and his muscles looked engorged from exercise, clearly indicating that he had just warmed up in the construction building... It was obvious—he had come to fight Hua Yin.

"Oh, I see what you mean." Hana slowly climbed out of the car, swayed her waist in the night breeze, and stretched her limbs to get her blood back into normal circulation. "I don't care."

"Good! Although it's a woman, she's very straightforward!" Guo Chuncheng shouted. "Once you're ready, we can begin."

As the son of Guo Haihuang, Guo Chuncheng enjoyed considerable freedom within the Chinese martial arts world. He had never participated in the evaluation system of the "Sea King" and "Foreign King" titles, yet at the age of twenty-six, he was already renowned throughout the martial arts community and a respected and powerful figure. Not long ago, he suddenly learned that a young girl who had returned from Japan had won the Sea King title and was highly regarded by his father, Guo Haihuang. Not only had he instructed her in martial arts, but he had even arranged for her to participate in a fighting competition in Hong Kong, showing her exceptional care and attention. This was something that the aging and frail Guo Haihuang, surrounded by children and grandchildren, had never given Guo Chuncheng.

Driven by a mix of jealousy and curiosity, Guo Chuncheng approached the staff who were picking him up at the airport and orchestrated this whole affair. He wanted to test Huayin's abilities before she participated in the competition.

"I'm ready at any time." Hanon shrugged. "I should say you're ready, so you can attack."

"Hmph, how arrogant!" Guo Chuncheng spat and launched an attack on Hua Yin.

Author's Note: Your stepping stone, Guo Chuncheng, is ready.

The fourth update might be at 21 PM, or maybe 22 PM; I'll try to do it as early as possible.

Section 426, Chapter 420: Guo Haihuang, you are so gentle!

The person who picked up Hanon twice—his name isn't important; what's important is that he's a very senior staff member from the Southern Martial Arts Province.

During his many years of service to the Martial Arts Province, he was trusted by the fat old man Elder Yang because of his intelligence and proper conduct. He did many errands and probing tasks, and thus witnessed the moves of many martial arts masters.

But the person who picked him up swore he had never seen Ye Haiwang's technique.

Guo Chuncheng launched his attack. His fists were incredibly powerful and fast, whistling through the air as they slammed into Ye Haiwang. And this was just the beginning. Guo Chuncheng's nickname was "The Mad Beast." His combos were the most famous in the martial arts world. Once unleashed, they were like a rabid beast tearing at its prey, never letting up until the opponent was completely defeated. Even a master of Haiwang's caliber could not withstand his relentless onslaught indefinitely.

Of course, this Ye Haiwang passed three tests in a row a month ago, and his strength was by no means ordinary. So at that moment, the person picking him up was sure that what followed would be a fierce battle with a very exciting offense and defense!

But he was wrong.

The person picking him up saw that Guo Chuncheng's first blow landed on Ye Haiwang, who retreated like a leaf. The feeling was peculiar—not like a tattered rag doll being defeated, nor like a willow swaying in the wind, but simply like a leaf, drifting and swaying in mid-air, carried away by the wind.

"Strange!" the person picking her up thought. "Ye Haiwang's defensive techniques are really bizarre. She's probably hiding some amazing skills. Is Guo Chuncheng going to give chase...? Hmm?"

Looking at Guo Chuncheng again, the person who picked him up realized he was wrong. Ye Haiwang hadn't been hiding his skills and hadn't used them yet; he had already made his move the moment he was about to recover!

Although the person who picked him up couldn't figure out how Ye Haiwang had done it, Guo Chuncheng didn't pursue after his successful attack. Instead, he clutched his wrist and cried out in pain, clearly indicating that his wrist was dislocated!

What a terrifying Ye Haiwang! What a mysterious Ye Haiwang!

"That's enough, isn't it?" Hanon was quite pleased to have successfully used her new move, "Phoenix Fairy," to deflect Guo Chuncheng's wrist. This force-absorbing technique was indeed excellent; with "Phoenix Fairy," once mastered, it could almost completely replace "Oni Ao."

"Hmph, just a minor injury." Since Guo Chuncheng is a "mad beast," an attack that cannot be completely eliminated will only further provoke him into going berserk!

With a "crack," Guo Chuncheng repositioned his dislocated wrist, and without even assuming a fighting stance, he attacked Huayin again.

Within three seconds, the ferocious Guo Chuncheng unleashed seven punches and three kicks upon Hua Yin, each move vicious and heavy.

Three seconds later, amidst Hua Yin's pained expression and the horrified and bewildered looks of the person picking him up, Guo Chuncheng dislocated multiple joints in his limbs and collapsed in front of Hua Yin like a lump of mud.

"Oh dear, what a disaster." Hua Yin shook her head. Her "Fengxian" technique was not yet fully completed, and she was far from being able to use it freely. This was actually the most dangerous situation for her opponents, especially for opponents like Guo Chuncheng who were not strong enough.

"Damn it!" Guo Chuncheng continued to roar as he lay on the ground, but the person picking him up thought that the roar was probably to vent his pain.

Let alone Hana, even the most experienced airport pick-up person, who had seen much of the dark side of life, felt that Guo Chuncheng looked too pitiful. Therefore, he said something into the darkness: "Look..."

"Yes, that's enough."

A voice answered from the darkness. Hua Yin and Guo Chuncheng were both stunned. They recognized the voice because it belonged to Guo Haihuang.

Two more people emerged from the darkness. Guo Haihuang was still in a wheelchair, and the person pushing the wheelchair was a rather burly, tall man.

"Uh, this is..." Hua Yin didn't know what to say. Could this be a trap? But seeing Guo Chuncheng's bewildered expression, if it was a trap, then Lao Guo had probably tricked both himself and Xiao Guo into it.

Guo Haihuang ignored the three people who were originally in the room, and instead asked the person pushing the wheelchair, "What do you think of her?"

The man pondered for a moment and then said, "...Very strong, qualified."

"Hehe, you really are cautious." Guo Haihuang shrugged. "This girl's performance is undeniably high-level, even exceeding my expectations. Her qualifications to participate in that competition are beyond doubt! Or do you also feel threatened, Long?"

The person pushing the wheelchair stopped talking. Guo Haihuang first said to the person at the airport, "You did a good job. Go start the car." Then he turned to his young son, Guo Chuncheng.

"You're really weak, Chuncheng."

"Dad, I..."

"No need to say anything more." Guo Haihuang interrupted him: "Really, did you really inherit my bloodline? Sigh, I think you should just retire from the martial arts world."

"Oh, Dad?"

Guo Chuncheng was about to speak when Guo Haihuang ignored him. He beckoned Huayin to come and push his wheelchair, but the person who was pushing the wheelchair went to Guo Chuncheng's side, bent down, and helped him put his dislocated joint back in place—it was very painful. So, while Huayin was pushing Guo Haihuang into the car, she could hear muffled groans with a sobbing tone behind her.

The sound made Hua Yin feel very sorry for him. As soon as she got into the car, she complained to Guo Haihuang: "I said, even though that's your own son, aren't you being too cruel?"

"Is it cruel? You were the one who broke Chun-sung's joints."

"Hey, don't interrupt, you know what I mean."

Seeing that Hua Yin kept asking, Guo Haiwang became a little serious for once: "My child, it would be very painful if you practiced martial arts."

Hanon was taken aback: "What do you mean?" But she was quick-witted and guessed after a moment's thought: "Is it the shadow of my great father?"

“That’s right.” Perhaps because he no longer had to face his own son and pretend to be a “strict father,” Guo Haihuang’s tone softened. “My descendants could be happy doing anything else. But if they choose martial arts, their talent is insufficient, and their achievements will be limited. In the end, they will only sink into the sea of ​​suffering in the shadow of their father, whom they can never catch up with. Parents all over the world have such a heart. If possible, I hope they will not go down this path… But Chuncheng’s situation is a bit special. He has good talent, so his martial arts progress is quite fast, but it is still impossible for him to catch up with me.”

Guo Haihuang looked at Hua Yin and said, "He's coming to cause you trouble tonight. I'm killing two birds with one stone: I'll see if you've been practicing your energy-absorbing skills properly this past month, and I'll use you to wake Chuncheng up and make him stop being so obsessed with martial arts."

Well, since Guo Haihuang has said so, what else can Huayin do? She gave Guo a thumbs up: "Alright, Guo Haihuang, you're so gentle!"

The car quickly stopped in front of a hotel. Guo Haihuang and Hua Yin got out of the car, while the person who was supposed to pick them up prepared to drive away.

Before he left, Huayin knocked on the car window and teased, "Hey, I knew I didn't sense much malice from you this time. Turns out you're a double agent for Guo Haihuang and Guo Chuncheng."

"Ye Haiwang, you're joking. It's a matter between father and son. I can't bear the label of a double agent." The person who picked him up spoke as smoothly as ever.

Hua Yin patted the roof of the car: "Fine, anyway, you managed to trick me twice, that's pretty impressive. I didn't even know your name before we parted."

Aside from a few elders and the Sea Emperor and Sea King, the person who picked her up was the person Huayin knew best in the Martial Arts Province. Moreover, they became friends after a fight, and Huayin genuinely considered him a friend.

The person who picked me up laughed heartily: "No problem, I'm a Mongolian, my name is Surilho Kebar Erdun Ochir."

"...Brother, the journey of life is long, farewell."

Author's note: The last Mongolian name means "Majestic Tiger and Divine Pestle".

The relationship between Guo Haihuang and Guo Chuncheng is barely explained in the original "Baki" manga, making it seem even more cruel. Here, however, a little bit of warmth is given.

Section 427, Chapter 421: The Punk Kanon Arrives!

After seeing off the person who couldn't remember the name of the person picking them up, Huayin pushed Guo Haihuang into the hotel.

The hotel is a very high-end hotel, magnificent and modern. Although it was evening, guests and diners came and went in an endless stream, which testifies to the prosperity of an international metropolis.

After giving her name at the front desk, Hua Yin was slightly taken aback to find that Guo Haihuang had already arranged rooms for her: "You booked three rooms?"

"Yes, three rooms," Guo Haihuang said. "More people will be coming later, let's eat first."

Sure enough, after sitting in the hotel restaurant for a while, the man who had pushed Guo Haihuang and later set Guo Chuncheng's bones also arrived.

Upon seeing him, Guo Haihuang nodded: "You sent Chuncheng back?"

"Yes, he's a strong person, he'll be fine."

"Although he didn't inherit much martial arts talent, he's still my son." Guo Haihuang wasn't worried about Guo Chuncheng's actions. After a brief remark, he introduced the man and Huayin: "This is Ye Haiwang, our martial arts province's rising star. You've already seen her skills. Girl, this is Long Shuwen from Taiwan. He's a close friend of mine, a martial arts expert, and has been involved in the underworld for many years, so he knows the ropes. He'll also be participating in tomorrow's ring match, and he's one of the most favored to win. Girl, I'll be in the audience the whole time tomorrow, so just listen to his guidance and arrangements."

"Old man, you really look down on people." After greeting Hua Yin, Long Shuwen turned to Guo Haihuang and complained, "What do you mean by 'one of the most promising'? I don't think I'll lose to anyone, not even that Hua Shan Xun."

Guo Haihuang shrugged: "I wasn't referring to him." The old man reached out and patted Huayin, who was thinking, "So that Huashan Xun is here too," when he was startled.

"Ye Haiwang is someone I have high hopes for, and she is naturally a top contender as well."

“I see. I have absolute faith in Guo Haihuang’s judgment.” Long Shuwen didn’t argue much, but stared at Hua Yin and looked at her carefully again. After a moment, he suddenly shook his head: “No, no.”

"Hmm?" ×2, Huayin and Guo Haihuang asked at the same time. Could it be that Long Shuwen looked down on Huayin?

"That's not the case," Long Shuwen explained, shaking his head. "I also have dealings with Guo Chuncheng. I have no doubt about Ye Haiwang's strength, as she can easily defeat him. But Ye Haiwang's appearance... The gangsters participating in that grand prix are all burly men. If Ye Haiwang appears as a woman, she will be ridiculed and looked down upon."

Long Shuwen, being a seasoned veteran, understood the personalities of those underworld figures all too well. It was a world rife with male chauvinism, where almost everyone believed women needed male protection and would consider themselves "gentlemen" enough to refuse to fight with them. Not to mention, many others viewed women as tools for venting their frustrations and procreation. If Huayin, a woman, were to step onto the competition field, while the high-ranking bosses might be able to maintain their restraint, the thugs below would surely cause an uproar.

"What the hell, these sexist bastards!" Hanon was indignant. She'd seen plenty of insults and mockery; she could prove herself through strength. Those cowards would be shouting "Big Sister Hanon" in the blink of an eye. The most difficult to deal with were the so-called "gentlemen" and "real men." These people would rather concede defeat in the ring than fight a woman, and public opinion would even favor them, praising their sportsmanship and further reinforcing their belief in the righteousness of their actions…

Being ridiculed is fine, but not being able to play in the competition is upsetting, so Kanon had no choice but to compromise.

"Okay, the match is tomorrow night, right? I'll go buy some clothes tomorrow morning and change my outfit."

...The next day, just as night fell, Long Shuwen's eyes lit up when he saw Hua Yin in the hotel lobby: "Hey, Ye Haiwang?"

"Hmm~" Hana smiled and twirled around: "How's my outfit?"

Although she had lived as a woman for quite some time, Kanon, whose inner self was still that of a man, was not good at makeup. She could make her temperament particularly masculine, but it was difficult for her to make her appearance perfect—she was fortunate to have Mieko's help during the elimination tournament, but when she went to Suzuran on her own a while ago, she gave herself away at every turn.

This time, she went out alone to participate in a competition with a gangster theme. Knowing that she couldn't do it by putting on makeup, she simply let herself go and "covered up" herself in the most radical way.

Hanon bought a lot of disposable temporary tattoo stickers and covered her limbs with patterns. Her face was painted with watercolors, covered in colorful graffiti that was dizzying to look at. She also dyed her newly grown hair yellow and permed it into a spiky hairstyle, making her look like a Super Saiyan from Dragon Ball from a distance. However, before Hanon transmigrated, she knew a more appropriate name for her—"Shamate" (a derogatory term for a subculture known for its flamboyant and often outlandish style).

Well, or rather, paired with this one-time arm tattoo and the rock jacket worn after the chest binder, Kanon has a hardcore punk look!

Just for reference.jpg

Long Shuwen is forty-five years old this year and has seen a lot, but when faced with Huayin, he simply put his hand to his forehead.

"I'm surprised the security guard let you in."

"Of course, I have the room key after all~" Hanon chuckled, not caring at all. Don't let her current "otherworldly" look fool you, once she gets back, a couple more showers and a haircut will make her look just like before. She'll tell her uncle when she gets home that she saw many blonde girls in America and wants to dye her hair to follow suit. After all, Japanese high schools aren't strict about hair coloring. At Deimon, Hiruma and Jumonji are all blonde; and at Sumeragi, Hibiki Sakura isn't just blonde, she's also a dark-skinned girl!

"Oh ho, is it the competition staff coming to pick us up?" Guo Haihuang came out. Actually, this old man didn't need a wheelchair at all. He usually needed to be pushed around by this person or that person, which was just him acting like an old man and showing off. But today, Long Shuwen and Huayin were both participating in the competition, and no one was going to push his wheelchair, so he wisely walked instead.

"Ha!" Hua Yin laughed loudly, "If even the old man with such a sharp eye can't recognize it, others certainly won't be able to either."

"What? You're Huayin?" Guo Haihuang was startled. Despite his nearly 150 years of life experience, this kind of look didn't exist in ancient times! Luckily, the old man was an open-minded person, otherwise he might have been scared to death by Huayin.

That was about it for the pre-match interlude; soon, event staff came to pick them up. The staff member also seemed to be from a thug background, so he wasn't surprised by Hanon's appearance. He drove the three of them to a large nightclub.
