It wants to tear this human female apart first, and then tear apart the enemy that she is protecting behind her back!

In their first encounter, Kanon sidestepped, then lightly raised her hand and grasped Yasha Ape's chin—recently, Kanon has been increasingly inclined to use this kind of light knockdown technique, which not only shows absolute dominance in strength but is also safe and won't cause serious damage.

However, this move is not applicable to all opponents; it had a slight effect on Yasha-monkey.

"Oh?" Kanon's small hands could barely hold Yasha Ape's big chin. She finally managed to find the right spot with her thumb and "pull the trigger," but Yasha Ape only swayed slightly and did not fall down.

The beast became even more ferocious, using both its hands and feet to unleash a flurry of wild punches at Huayin.

Seeing the opponent's fierce attack, Hanon was unwilling to get entangled and temporarily retreated to avoid its sharp edge. At the same time, she analyzed, "It seems that the skulls of wild beasts are different from those of humans, and they are quite good at resisting impacts."

This is truly unfortunate—for Yashamonon II.

If you can't kill someone instantly by stunning them, then what follows will be an even heavier blow.

As the Yasha Monkey's attack slowed down, Kanon suddenly stepped forward, steadied herself in a horse stance, adjusted her breathing, mobilized her muscles, and unleashed a powerful punch—"Break!"

"Ouch!" The Yasha Ape was knocked back by this punch; to be precise, both feet left the ground, and its entire body was briefly propelled into flight!

"Roar..." After the expulsion stopped, bloodstains appeared on the corners of the Yasha Ape's mouth.

Its injuries weren't too serious, but it was beginning to wonder: what kind of creature was in front of it? Could a human female unleash such a powerful attack?

Well, theoretically speaking, this is indeed not an attack that a normal human could deliver.

Kato Kiyosumi is only a little over 1.7 meters tall and weighs no more than 70 or 80 kilograms, making her roughly equal to Kanon in terms of basic stats. Martial arts is not some mystical art. From a physics perspective, such height and weight have a limit to the punching power that can be delivered. Even the strongest martial artist cannot defy fate. The purpose of practicing punching techniques is simply to get as close to this limit as possible, making the conversion of physical attributes into power more efficient.

Kato's attacks were completely ineffective against Yasha Ape, which could even doze off while being hit. Under normal circumstances, no matter how skilled Kanon was, the force of her strikes would not be more than a few orders of magnitude stronger than that of Kato Kiyosumi, a top karate master.

The reason then goes back to the beginning of Hanon's martial arts—the core explosion.

This attack is based on muscle control, something only exceptionally gifted individuals like Kanon and Wakatsuki Samurai can achieve. By utilizing the force generated when the "spring" of compressed muscles bursts open, Kanon greatly enhances her attack power, making her punches far exceed their theoretical limits; even someone as tough as Yasha Monkey would be injured.

"That was a powerful punch, wasn't it?" Having landed a blow, Hanon brandished her fist at Yasha Ape: "Senior Brother, you'd better behave yourself, or I'll give you a good shove in the chest!"

Danger! This female is dangerous!

Yashagi's sense of crisis intensified, but it did not back down. Driven by fear, doubt, anger, pain, and fighting instinct, Yashagi unleashed an unprecedented ferocity and pounced on Kanon once again.

During the impact, the Yasha Ape suddenly leaped up, curling its body into a ball, almost turning into a large ball rolling at high speed through the air, with sharp claws and fangs bared around it.

Hanon was slightly taken aback: "Oh, I've seen this pose before, it's Blanca from Street Fighter? I wonder if it's electrified..."

Well, just kidding. Monkeys aren't electric eels; they can't generate electricity or skr. Of course, Kanon can reach out and hit them.

"That's it." Hanon's martial arts knowledge was increasing day by day, and besides, she could hardly talk about countering or breaking the moves of an opponent like Yasha Ape. She avoided Yasha Ape's sharp edge and punched the center of the sphere from the side, which happened to be Yasha Ape's ribs... well, it used to be his ribs.

Now my ribs are broken.

"Awooooo!" The charge was forcibly stopped, and the Yaksha ape's cries were both shrill and frenzied, its fighting spirit having reached the peak of its monkey life.

Driven by the surge of adrenaline, Yasha Ape did not succumb to inertia and fall into the distance. Instead, he kicked off the ground behind him and forcefully withstood the impact!

"Crack!" A loud sound was heard by everyone nearby. Yasha Ape had broken a few more of his ribs!

But its reckless actions did buy it time; within a fraction of a second, it completed the action of stopping, opening its mouth, and biting Hana's neck and shoulder.

Yasha apes are wild beasts, and biting is the most natural and powerful fighting tactic for them.

Faced with a gaping maw, Kanon's simplest option is to withstand it with her "indestructible" strength. With a rigidity that can withstand even a bullet, the final result will surely be that Yasha-monkey shatters all her sharp teeth.

Kanon's other option was to shove her arm directly into the Yasha ape's mouth. If she put it in deep enough, down to the back of its throat, then according to the skeletal structure of the creature, no matter how strong the Yasha ape's bite was, it wouldn't be able to close its mouth, and Kanon would gain control of its vitals.

Both moves were enough to end the battle, and Kanon was prepared to choose one of them...

However, Hanon didn't choose either option; she simply stepped back to avoid the bite, cowering in fear.

"Ugh, it still doesn't work." Hua Yin shook her head. "It's not that I'm a germaphobe and look down on you, Senior Brother, your mouth just stinks!"

After all, the Yasha ape is a wild beast that eats meat and drinks blood every day and doesn't brush its teeth. The taste... tsk tsk, Kanon doesn't want to have any intimate contact with the Yasha ape's mouth.

Anyway, the outcome of the battle is not in doubt.

Both options assume that the Yasha Ape can be defeated in one move, but in reality, Kanon does not need to win in one move.

She didn't even need to defeat the beast.

The Yasha ape's ribs were broken, which was already a serious injury. Its forced, lightning-fast bite was also dodged. As the saying goes, "one effort is enough, but it will be exhausted after a while." The Yasha ape's momentum and ferocity began to decline after this bite.

After taking two or three more normal attacks from Hanon during the battle, one of which hit the part with the "explosive core", the Yasha Ape stopped roaring in pain and started moaning.

That's enough. This human female... whatever kind of creature she is, that's enough.

Revenge? Not now... Saving my life is the priority... It hurts too much...

Yasha-gi retreated.

After fighting Kanon for a minute, Yasha-sama could no longer hold on, turned his head, and ran away.

Kanon didn't give chase. As a respectable person, it would be very improper for her to chase after a giant monkey. Compared to the Yasha Monkey, Kanon was more concerned about Kato and Baki, who had been injured by it.

Kato, who had been knocked unconscious by Yasha-sama, was just beginning to regain consciousness. Baki, on the other hand, had already rested and was giving Kanon a grateful look: "Miss Hagakure, thank you. That's... good."

“Yes, I’ve said before that I’m a non-killing person.” Kanon reached out and pulled Baki up. “But we still need to control this beast as soon as possible.”

Yasha Ape fled towards the arena, where there was no one now. The audience seats were protected by many staff and martial artists. Even when Yasha Ape was at its peak, it couldn't cause any trouble, let alone now that it was completely terrified.

A wild beast, after all, will probably find a corner to lick its wounds next... as it should be.

As soon as Yasha Ape stumbled into the arena, he bumped into another person.

Tall and imposing, with a handsome, square face and a free and unrestrained demeanor, he is none other than Katsumi Guji, the young master of Shinshin-ryu Karate.

Author's Note: La la la, the fourth update of the day is here!

Section 506, Chapter 500: Stop fighting!

Katsumi stopped Yasha-sama. As a fellow disciple of the Shinshin-ryu school, he rushed over because he was concerned about Kato. However, he was a little late. By the time he reached the entrance, Yasha-sama had just been driven away by Kanon and was rushing towards them.

Katsumi was unaware that Yasha-monkey had lost all will to fight.

He glanced into the depths of the passage and saw Hanon draw her Baki while Kato was still unconscious. His anger rose within him: "Hey, you beast, you really don't know your own strength."

Facing the charge of the Yasha Ape, the tall Katsumi grabbed its head by the hair and dragged it into the arena.

His strength was immense. Although Yasha Ape had broken ribs and his fighting spirit was low, he still struggled when grabbed like that. But by the time Katsumi reached him, his struggles had become nothing more than childish wailing, completely ineffective.

"Oh my god, that monster is back again." The audience had just seen Yasha Ape throw Kato to Baki and then run backstage, but now, a few minutes later, they saw the ferocious beast being dragged out by Katsumi Guji again.

"It was Katsumi Guji, he saved Baki and Kato?"

"As expected of the secret weapon of the Shinshin-ryu school! Karate has been perfected in his hands!"

"He dragged that giant beast with just one hand, that's amazing!"

Amid cheers from the crowd, Katsumi threw Yasha-sama to the ground, sending him rolling several times—although he benefited from Kanon's attack, Katsumi's physical abilities were truly extraordinary, proving he was quite skilled!

"Awooo—Awooo—" The Yaksha ape realized that a new crisis had arrived. As the saying goes, "a cornered beast will fight to the death," and it had no choice but to rouse its fighting spirit again.

One or two of them are so troublesome, there are so many powerful beings among humans... Hmm?

Just as the Yasha ape roared twice, Katsumi appeared in front of him... With a "boom," his fist slammed into the Yasha ape's face, causing blood to flow from its nose.

"One more time!" Katsumi immediately followed up, kicking Yasha Ape in the ribs again, his toes pointing forward like steel needles, piercing straight into the muscles, the vibration directly reaching his liver.

"Waaah—"

This kick has a special name in karate: "Crescent Moon Kick." It targets the internal organs and causes excruciating pain.

Moreover, several of the ribs on the other side of the Yasha Ape were already broken.

Both sides of his ribs were severely injured. Let alone a mere Yaksha ape, even if it were a Great Kong, he wouldn't be able to stand up straight!

Yasha Monkey fell to the ground, but its suffering was not over. Katsumi attacked, delivering a three-hit combo. After a straight punch and a crescent moon kick, he added a "monkey arm" strike to Yasha Monkey's head, which was an elbow strike.

This time, Yasha Ape didn't even have time to let out a wail before collapsing onto the arena.

Wow! That's amazing!

"This is the young master of Shinshin-ryu Karate? Impressive!"

"Katsumi! Katsumi! You're so powerful!"

The audience erupted in cheers, and even the martial artists watching were quite shocked. Yasha-sama, who had been yawning while facing Kato Kiyosumi's fierce attack, was actually taken down by Katsumi in just three strikes, in less than two seconds. This was simply too powerful!

Katsumi scratched his cheek: "Strange, is Kato really that weak?"

The Yasha-monkey easily collapsed, which made Katsumi suspect something was wrong, but he didn't want to think about it too much: "Oh well, since we've already subdued the beast, let Tokugawa-sensei send it back to where it came from."

Katsumi grabbed the Yasha Ape's head, pretending to hit it: "To prevent it from waking up and hurting innocent people, let's give it another punch."

Then someone patted Katsumi on the shoulder.

That was Baki: "Hey, aren't you going a bit too far?"

"Huh?" As Katsumi turned around, he saw a beam of light rushing towards him—it was Baki's fast punch, striking Katsumi's face like lightning.

Keji dodged.

"Hey, kid, are you going to attack me for this beast?" Katsumi was confused, but he wasn't afraid to fight. In fact, just as Baki was throwing a punch at him, Katsumi also kicked out, striking first and even hitting Baki's face before Baki could react... Of course, Baki dodged that kick.

After all, Baki is a veteran animal rights activist... cough cough, he should feel guilty towards Yashamonon II. Kanon's attack just now was exactly what he expected—not killing Yashamonon, but also preventing its intrusion. Then Katsumi suddenly appeared, taking down Yashamonon in three moves, and even threatening to kill it on the spot with another punch. This crossed Baki's line.

"Truly a master." Although he dodged Katsumi's kick, the force of the blow made Baki's cheeks burn, making him realize how powerful the person in front of him was: "But I can't let you hurt Yasha Ape again, it's already unconscious."

"Heh, what if I insist on doing it this way?" Katsumi was also a proud person. If he agreed as soon as Baki made a move, wouldn't he seem cowardly?

"Then I'll have to offend you." Baki said, about to throw a punch, but his fist was grabbed by someone—Kanon.

Cough cough, just like Lu Bu shooting the halberd at the gate, saying "I don't like fighting, I only like to resolve fights," a strong person like Hua Yin would naturally step in to act as a peacemaker: "Please stop fighting!"

Well, before Baki and Katsumi could react, the audience erupted in excitement.

"Huh? A woman? What's a woman doing running onto the ring?"

"Haha, my friend, you don't understand. This plot is obviously about Baki and Katsumi fighting over this woman. Now the female lead has stepped in to stop it. It's like a scene from an eight o'clock soap opera."
