Fujimaki never expected that this girl, who was skilled in striking techniques, would also know this move... Well, it's already astonishing enough that a girl can be this strong, so what's wrong with her having a few more techniques?
However, Jin Longshan, who was being challenged, didn't think much of it. He only knew that he was losing his balance and was about to fall.
How could a Yokozuna, a dignified figure, do this!
A dignified yokozuna, a dignified yokozuna, a dignified yokozuna...
The pride of the Yokozuna truly unleashed the full potential of Mount Kinryu, and a miracle occurred at that moment.
When resisting the "floating" attack, Jinlongshan supported himself with one hand on the ground. Later, when he used the "Buddha's Altar Return" technique, he did not leave the ground. Under Jinlongshan's obsession, he unconsciously clenched his palm, and the enormous force actually pried off a tile from the ground!
Grabbing the tile in his hand, Jinlongshan gained a new "weapon." In a critical moment, he slapped the "weapon" directly at Huayin's back—the tile was equivalent to an extension of his arm, so it not only hit Huayin's back but also reached the back of her head, which was normally unreachable!
"Bang—" The tile shattered, and Huayin's head was also hit, causing her movements to become chaotic and her "Buddha Altar Return" technique to fail.
"This is my last chance!" Jinlongshan was already fired up, his only remaining fighting spirit was a frenzy. He realized that this was his only chance to win, so he pounced on Huayin, intending to pin her to the ground.
But that's impossible; in fact, Jinlong Mountain had no chance of winning from the very beginning.
The so-called "miracle" lasted only a moment.
Just as the trapezius muscle of Jinlong Mountain protects the brain, Hanon also tenses all the muscles in her body during battle, so her trapezius muscle is naturally no exception. Therefore, although the back of her head was hit, it was only a superficial injury with a few drops of blood.
This blow only fueled Kanon's anger.
"Danger..." Jinlong Mountain rushed halfway and felt an immense sense of crisis again, just like the kick that Huayin had just delivered in the dust, only this time it was several times stronger.
Jinlong Mountain retreated.
He then dodged Hanon's upward finger razor strike.
This strike was incredibly fast and extremely powerful. If it had hit, it might have split Golden Dragon Mountain in two!
"That was close!" The life-threatening situation slightly dampened Jinlongshan's fighting spirit, but before he could even process it, Huayin closed in on him again, taking advantage of Jinlongshan's retreating momentum, grabbing his legs with both hands, and trying to throw Jinlongshan over again!
"Ah, another sumo technique!" Fujimaki naturally recognized the move: "It's 'Outer Musou'."
He was puzzled. Was this little girl really so arrogant that she insisted on using sumo wrestling to defeat the Yokozuna?
Jinlongshan has to deal with this technique once or twice a day. No matter how skilled you are, if it's just a sumo wrestling match, you can't possibly defeat Jinlongshan!
As expected, Jinlongshan reacted very quickly, kneeling on one knee first to maintain his balance.
But, just as Fujimaki wondered, why did Kanon insist on specific conditions in a competition where only winning or losing was the goal?
With Jinlongshan kneeling down, his 191.5-centimeter height had dropped to the same level as Hanon's, meaning his head was now within range of many of Hanon's striking techniques...
Huayin immediately released Jinlongshan, then quickly turned around and delivered an elbow strike to Jinlongshan's forehead.
"Snap!" A very crisp sound, but it meant that Jinlongshan's forehead, a vital spot, had been hit without any protection from muscle or fat.
Hanon finished her attack, turned and left: "As expected of a Yokozuna! Uncle Kinryuyama, I didn't manage to knock you down in the end!"
But Jinlongshan had already lost consciousness.
The outcome is now clear.
Author's Note: Phew, this match is over. I even found some videos of sumo moves to explain, but breaking them down in too much detail would make this post too long. I hope the current format won't be too confusing for everyone~
There will be another chapter updated tonight.
Section 516, Chapter 510: The Strongest Woman of the Yellow Race
Jinlongshan slowly opened his eyes, and the first thing he saw was Master Tengjuan.
"Hey bro (crossed out) Grand Grandmaster, you're awake!"
"Teacher..." Jin Longshan realized he was lying on a hospital bed. The surroundings were no longer the place where he had just fought, but a rather cramped, clean room, filled with the smell of medicine. Clearly, he had been brought to the infirmary.
His injured arm had been bandaged, and Jinlongshan could only struggle to sit up using his other intact arm.
"I lost... I'm sorry."
"Well, forget it." Mr. Fujimaki seemed more open-minded: "At least you didn't lose as a sumo wrestler, and you didn't fall until the very end. What more could I ask for?"
But the more he said that, the more guilty Jinlongshan felt: "But as the Yokozuna representing sumo, I..."
"Slap!" This time, the vine really slapped Jinlongshan across the face.
The old man then admonished, "Sumo is indeed a martial art, but as a martial art, it is no more noble than other fighting techniques. You need to understand this! Besides, how can you be so arrogant as to represent sumo? Are you really the strongest wrestler in history?"
Kinryuzan fell silent. He was indeed not the strongest sumo wrestler in history. Even without mentioning the ancient Nomi Sukune, he had not been able to subdue the twin Yokozuna Ryuozan and Koozan in the present day. The three had been competing for more than ten years and it was still difficult to determine who was better. He was qualified to say that he "represented the top level of sumo" but he was a little unsure about saying that he "represented sumo".
To put it bluntly, he only participated in this tournament because he was arrogant enough to prove that sumo is the strongest martial art. Now, Fujimaki's mentor seems to be belittling Kinryuzan, but he is actually relieving pressure on his beloved disciple!
"...I understand. I was too arrogant. My defeat is not a defeat for sumo wrestling." Jinlongshan readily admitted his mistake.
As the saying goes, a broad mind leads to a healthy body. While there are some petty and even treacherous individuals among sumo wrestlers, most are good people with positive values. Kinryuzan is one of the more outstanding ones among them. In particular, the two Yokozuna, Ryuozan and Koozan, were rebellious youths like their younger brother, Oniozan, when they were young. Kinryuzan is widely praised as the face and role model of the Sumo Association.
After adjusting his mindset, Jinlongshan recalled the battle he had just fought.
Then his expression became somewhat distorted.
After being knocked away, she nonchalantly walked back to her original spot and held her own in a palm strike. Wave after wave of ever-changing attacks, including that "slash" powerful enough to cut through gold and jade—if she had used it right from the start, he might have been instantly killed without any warning... And all of this was done with complete ease! The girl even kept using combination techniques that she wasn't very good at!
The sound of leaves and flowers is unfathomable! This is Jinlong Mountain's impression of the sound of flowers.
“I have challenged such monsters many times…” Jinlongshan shuddered: “Hehehe, even if I challenged them a hundred more times, I would have no chance at all.”
In the past, Kanon, the Fang of Metsudo, was so powerful that many fighters who lost to him lost confidence, leading some to quit the Kengan Association or even stop practicing martial arts altogether. Even Naoya Okubo, the King of Fighters in the real world, was once like that, but fortunately, he quickly adjusted his mindset and rallied. Unbeknownst to many, Kanon has also become a powerful figure who can cast a huge shadow over her opponents, and even the Grand Grand Champion of the Sumo Association is not immune to her power.
However, like Okubo, Kinryuyama was very determined, and after a brief period of confusion, he quickly regained his composure.
He raised his intact arm and pulled apart his hair bun: "Teacher, I've made up my mind. I'm going to hone my skills again and start over as a lowly warrior!"
"Oh? What are your plans?" Old Master Fujimaki was only slightly taken aback, then became excited. With his life experience, the victory or defeat of Mount Kinryu, or even his status as a Yokozuna, was not important. On the contrary, his beloved disciple, now middle-aged, was going to challenge it all from scratch. With such determination, the heights he could reach in the future were truly something to look forward to!
Jinlongshan already had a plan: "I think... I should talk to Guiwangshan."
"The younger brother of the twin Yokozuna? I heard he's a bit rebellious and even developed a new sumo wrestling style..." Fujimaki asked curiously, "You've competed with his two older brothers your whole life, and now you're hanging out with his younger brother? Aren't you afraid of what people will say?"
Well, Jinlong Mountain has already voluntarily been demoted to the lowest level of strongman, so what does a little gossip matter?
"The sumo of Ghost King Mountain incorporates elements of many other martial arts. Although it's far from mature, perhaps we can work together to improve it." Kinryu-zan's gaze seemed to be fixed on the distance. Not long ago, he firmly believed that sumo was the best in the world, but Kanon's strength greatly impressed him. Perhaps a little integration, some new blood, would bring a different direction to sumo.
“Very good, I have high hopes for you.” Mr. Fujimaki also specifically mentioned another sumo veteran: “Takashino Hana, do you remember her? Hehe, of course you remember her, she was the previous generation’s Grand ...
Fujimaki patted Kinryuyama on the shoulder: "You still have a chance, keep it up! My beloved disciple! This old man is looking forward to seeing even stronger and more exciting sumo wrestling!"
"Yes!"
Jinlongshan and his apprentice were full of ambition, preparing to bring about changes to the sumo world and make up for the regret of his predecessor who lost to the "strongest man of the yellow race" and was out of luck. However, Ye Huayin, the "strongest woman of the yellow race" who defeated Jinlongshan, had already disappeared.
No, the "Ye Hua Yin" is gone.
Now, the underground arena at Tokyo Dome is only occupied by a yakuza powerhouse with a flamboyant, punk-like style, named "Joaquin."
After Kanon defeated Kinryuyama, the fifteen-minute break between the B and C sections was almost over, and Tokugawa Mitsunari didn't even have time to announce that Kanon had replaced Kinryuyama.
"No, Miss Kanon's appearance on stage must be very formal!" Tokugawa insisted on this, after all, Kanon was a warrior he valued, and this valuing had become even stronger after Kanon easily defeated Kinryu-zan: "At worst, we can announce the replacement of the appearance spot before the start of the second round of the competition. I want to properly introduce you to the audience!"
Hanon couldn't argue with the old man, and she didn't have time to argue either. After all, the tournament had already entered the second half, and at a pace of one or two minutes per match, it wasn't long before "Joaquin" would appear.
Kanon, along with Miho, Garuda, and Hitomi, found a room, fussed around for a bit, changed their clothes, and then hurriedly ran back to the players' lounge.
Author's Note: This chapter is just a small transition. There will still be four updates tomorrow, and a heavyweight character from the Baki series will also appear tomorrow. You can probably guess what that means.
Section 517, Chapter 511: Baki the Mother of Goddess, The Championship Match
Kanon, now known as "Joaquin," returned to the lounge. It was the same as always, crowded... well, not that crowded. Halfway through the first round of matches, many of the losing contestants had gone to the infirmary for treatment or were too ashamed to face anyone and had gone away. It was peaceful... well, not so peaceful. As soon as Kanon entered the room, she saw Changwei hitting Laifu, no, it was Baki and Katsumi facing off.
"Oh dear, this is really..."
The first match in Zone C featured the new heavyweight boxing champion Mike Tyson against Lee Meng-ho, a combat instructor for the South Korean Marine Corps. Tyson's status and prestige are self-evident, while Lee Meng-ho is a Taekwondo expert who has repeatedly ranked first in combat within the South Korean military and is by no means a weakling.
These two individuals, with their special identities, had prepared in separate rooms beforehand and hadn't lingered in the common lounge. They had now entered the ring and were confronting and provoking each other.
The atmosphere was electric, both inside and outside the venue.
Let's look at the side closer to Hanon first.
Katsumi Guji and Baki might really be at odds. This is the second time the two have confronted each other since Yasha-zaru, but it's actually a problem left over from Yasha-zaru's time.
"Champion, you say you don't like my fighting style?" Katsumi thought Baki was out of his mind, just like that Chinese Kaioh: "Could it be that you're dissatisfied with karate?"
Baki stared directly at Katsumi: "No, I'm just dissatisfied with you." He said solemnly, "Yasha-zaru was like that back then, and you were like that in your duel with Roland Istein just now. Do you really enjoy delivering the final blow to opponents who are already powerless to fight back?"
"Huh?" Katsumi Guji didn't expect Baki to disapprove of this: "A warrior should have a resolute will. What's wrong with completely annihilating the opponent?"
"Stop pretending! You know they can't fight back!" Baki roared. "There's a difference in strength, you know that perfectly well!"
It's true that martial artists need "Zanshin" (a kind of lingering spirit or willpower). Kanon understood this lesson when she first came into contact with martial arts. During the Tsuramine Academy Judo Tournament, the 13th Judo Club left a very deep impression on Kanon. However, "Zanshin" and "cruelty" are two different concepts. Katsumi Guji has a frivolous personality. Beneath his cheerful and sunny exterior, he does indeed have a subconscious tendency to look down on others as if he were a chosen one.
but……
"Heh heh heh, I didn't expect you, this fighting champion, to have such a saintly heart." Katsumi chuckled disdainfully. "You're only seventeen, and you're trying to talk to me about fighting ethics? Just focus on your own match!"
"This is truly a mess," Hana said, rubbing her forehead.
While on the surface Baki may seem like a saint, preaching and being generous with other people's money—an act that's quite distasteful—it's undeniably cruel for a martial artist to use excessive force and kill. This is morally untenable. Unless we accept that martial arts are a dog-eat-dog world where the strong can arbitrarily prey on the weak, and that concepts like "martial virtue," "ethics," and "gentlemanship" are meaningless, we should encourage and advocate for leaving an opponent a way out, protecting those who have lost the ability to resist when victory is assured.
Does the world still praise virtue?
This is like the Swedish environmental activist "How dare you"—extreme thinking, ugly actions, deserving of contempt. But beyond such clowns, isn't environmental protection a common well-being and pursuit for all humanity? Shouldn't we also praise China's years of efforts to green its land and despise the US withdrawal from the Paris Agreement?
