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

After all, she is a veteran powerhouse. In terms of simply countering moves, Kanon is no match for Guji Doppo.

"This is quite unexpected." Hanon was shocked. "Even launching a surprise attack from the side where he was blind couldn't break through his defenses. Is this what a grandmaster is like...?"

"Yes, yes, this is a grandmaster." On the stands, Zong Longshen nodded with his arms crossed: "The sea of ​​martial arts is unfathomable. Don't underestimate the heroes of the world, kid."

Garuda nudged Mihono: "Who is this guy? Why does he have to sit near us?"

Miho couldn't help but rub her forehead and whispered to Garuda, "This is the weird guy I met backstage when I was helping Kanon change clothes. He sparred with Kanon for a bit and then insisted on coming over and sitting with me like we were old friends."

Emmm, Zong Longshen is surprisingly annoying... With him around, Kanon's friends and family have to keep their voices down when they talk.

But Zonglongshen didn't care at all, and was very engrossed in commenting on the battle: "Don't think that just because Yuji Doppo is blind in one eye he can't see the fist path, there are monsters like this in the world!"

Zonglongshen has a deep understanding of this. Ten years ago, Narushima Joji, who defeated him in the Rokujinkai Tournament, was also blind in one eye, but possessed super vision with almost 360° blind spots. Combined with his unparalleled strength, he was an unimaginable monster.

“That guy Chengdao, his family has the bloodline of ‘fist eye’ from birth. I wonder how the old martial god maintains his eyesight.” Zong Longshen nodded again: “We need to observe carefully!”

Hanon's attacks have begun to slow down. After a fierce assault, she needs to recover her energy. Moreover, if she can't break through after a long period of attack, anyone would subconsciously feel a little discouraged, which would affect the speed of her movements.

However, after slowing down, Kanon also had a chance to observe the other person—her dynamic vision was also quite good!

"Ugh, that's... disgusting!" Kanon saw that Doppo's single eye was wide open, and then the eyeball was moving wildly up, down, left and right in its eye socket, just like an alien creature... or Wu Lao Er from the village entrance... but obviously this was very effective, Doppo relied on it to see Kanon's every move.

"I heard this was said by someone who was very knowledgeable about the place, but it turned out to be a very difficult situation. It's like they're trying to force me to give up! They're just saying it's a very difficult situation, and they're really going to try ...

Using only soft techniques in her "Joaquin" state does feel somewhat restrictive. Previously, in the "BIG" Grand Prix, she faced a group of yakuza members who were rough and powerful; none could match Kanon's ability to counter them like that, allowing her to fully utilize the significant boost from her energy dissipation in both offense and defense. Now, against Doppo Guji, pure attack and defense are no longer effective; she needs to employ more advanced techniques.

"Okay, next I will..." Hanon's combat talent has always been good. The more she fights against stronger opponents, the faster she can improve. While fighting against Dubu, she is also exploring the combination of offensive and defensive power and technique. Next is the moment to show the results.

However, a martial arts competition is a serious contest to determine the winner and loser, and some people even risk their lives. Under such circumstances, how can one do whatever one wants?

Before Kanon could even unleash her techniques, Guji Doppo seized the opportunity of Kanon's brief pause in her attack to launch a counterattack. Although her previous attacks had failed to penetrate her defenses, the old martial god had learned and evolved through battle; now, let's try again!

The unparalleled punch struck Joaquin. It was a simple move that had happened many times in this battle, but this time it was different; it caused real damage!

Now it was Kanon's turn to be defeated.

"Wow, that's strong!" Hanon was pushed back by the huge force, and a little blood appeared at the corner of her mouth. Doppo's punch was too strange. Not only did she not notice it, but her body's reaction was also half a beat slow.

"Hoo..." Hana supported herself with her hands and exhaled a breath of stale air. The injury was neither serious nor minor. Fortunately, her defensive abilities had evolved to the point where she could protect herself naturally and unconsciously. Otherwise, this would have been a tragedy.

In other words, even though Hanon had already activated her energy-absorbing technique, she was still made to feel panicked and breathless by this punch, and her internal organs were churning. Just how strong was the original power of this punch?

A single blow that can kill a ferocious beast—that's the true punch of karate.

"Ah..." Katsumi was speechless with surprise. He saw that his adoptive father's fist, which was used to launch an attack, had a peculiar shape.

It wasn't the traditional horizontal punch of karate, nor the vertical punch of Chinese martial arts, but rather a very natural gesture of bending a few fingers and slightly raising the index and little fingers, which was almost... almost like the gesture of a Guanyin statue.

Katsumi wasn't the only one astonished; Kato Kiyosumi, Suedo Atsushi, Baki, and even Sō Ryūjin in the stands were dumbfounded: "This...this...is it possible to make a fist like this?" Ten years ago, after his defeat, Sō Ryūjin changed the vertical punch of the Pōrinji style to a horizontal punch, essentially acknowledging the superiority of the Rokujin-kaikan karate, which was his rival. But today, he suddenly discovered that there was an even more perfect solution beyond the clash between the vertical and horizontal punches?

This is the "Bodhisattva Fist".

It was the punch that Yuji Doppo threw the night before last, when he was half asleep and startled awake by the mosquitoes of early spring. It was also the culmination of Yuji Doppo's forty-six years of karate experience, a punch that naturally transformed him. At that moment, he realized that the most primal grip of a baby at birth was the most perfect form of a straight punch.

The power of the "Bodhisattva Fist" is actually not much different from the original straight punch, after all, it is only a matter of 1 and 0.99999... But the strength of this punch lies in the fact that it is not killing intent when it is thrown. It is suddenly thrown in the midst of a fierce duel, with a maximum surprise factor, making it the natural enemy of all self-defense techniques.

This punch is almost another kind of "no-beat" punch, and because the fist is smaller than the torso, it is even more troublesome than a regular "no-beat" punch.

Wait, no beat? You can do that too!

In fact, why didn't Dao Yudi Dudu pursue him? He had thrown tens of millions of straight punches in his lifetime. Did he really need time to recover his energy just because he changed his hand gesture?

Of course not! Yuji Dubu had intended to give chase, but the moment he repelled "Joaquin," the opponent threw a punch as well. The punch grazed Yuji Dubu's cheek, leaving a bloody mark on the old martial god's face. In that moment of distraction, "Joaquin" had already used the power of the "Bodhisattva Fist" to drift far away, making further pursuit less effective.

"What a formidable brat." Doppo nonchalantly wiped away the blood. "But now you won't dare underestimate me, will you?"

"Oh, you're amazing!" Hana wiped her lips. "I never expected this battle to last so long."

Ahem, after all, the last "martial god" that Kanon encountered was someone who was brutally killed by someone like Ren Nikaido... It's not that the old man wasn't strong, but age has a great impact on martial artists, especially karate, a powerful fighting style that relies on the body. Doppo Guji is almost sixty years old, yet he is still so robust, which is enough to make people marvel at the wonder of martial arts.

But in any case, the battle is about to begin.

Author's Note: To be honest, this battle lasted almost four chapters, which was a bit unexpected. I guess it's just due to the power of the Martial God! It's not that I'm padding the story, lol.

Section 550, Chapter 544: Blinded by Blood, Six Waves of Reflection, Savage Collision

With things having come to this point, there was no need for further words. Kanon and Doppo both activated their abilities and charged towards each other.

Both sides have revealed most of their weapons; now it will be time for a serious showdown.

There was no need for further probing; their attacks became increasingly fierce, and the situation suddenly became much better.

"This, this is absolutely amazing!" the commentator exclaimed. "Who would have thought that Joaquin, a gangster, could go toe-to-toe with the God of War, Yuuji! But Yuuji is still a cut above, deftly handling Joaquin's attacks, making Joaquin's heavy punches and kicks seem ineffective!"

For the untrained eye, the commentator's assessment isn't entirely accurate. While Doppo's parrying skills are indeed superior to Kanon's, his attacks are far too heavy, forcing Doppo to consciously rely more on blocking and parrying techniques. In reality, their parries are evenly matched. The reason people find "Martial God's" movements more aesthetically pleasing is because Doppo is forced to use more intense and unconventional techniques—something martial artists would rather avoid.

As Hanon parried Yuji's moves, it was as if she had returned to the early days of martial arts training. She moved with a swift and decisive style, her movements fluid and powerful, her movements sharp and unpredictable. She was like a shadow, her movements swift and powerful, her movements fluid and unpredictable ...

In the midst of the exchange, Hana suddenly changed her fist into a grab. As Dobu reached out to block her, she grabbed Dobu's arm instead. The old martial god felt his center of gravity shift and was pulled to the side.

Joaquin's soft power not only includes force dissipation and supersonic punches, but also the technique of controlling the flow of power!

"Damn it—" His center of gravity shifted, and his stance naturally became chaotic. "Hua Jin's" fist was instantly delivered to Du Bu's front.

In the critical moment, Doppo suddenly roared and managed to complete a substandard third fight, barely managing to avoid being knocked out. However, the punch had already caused considerable damage, and Doppo spat out a mouthful of blood...

The blood was smeared all over Huayin's face.

The commentator exclaimed, "Ah, what an unexpected turn of events! The blood that Doppo Yuji spat out has blinded Joaquin. What will happen next?"

In fact, Yuji Doppo's spitting of blood was an accident, but spraying it at "Joaquin" was intentional. After creating a slight advantage by adapting to the situation, Yuji Doppo's counterattack came.

The "Bodhisattva Fist" five-hit combo! Instantly struck five vital points of "Hua Jin"!

However, as soon as her vision was blocked, Hanon immediately emptied her body and completely entered a state of energy depletion. Even the "Bodhisattva Fist," which had no killing intent to be found, was futile when attacked head-on.

Well, that's not quite right. Although the "Bodhisattva Fist" didn't cause any damage, it did adjust the positioning of Doppo and Hanon. Although Doppo's name is "Doppo," he is not a martial artist who only relies on one trick!

"Huh?" Before Hanon could wipe the blood from her eyes, she sensed a fierce killing intent approaching—this was definitely not the "Bodhisattva Fist".

If it's a striking technique, then the skills mastered by Yuji Doppo are unmatched by the "Bodhisattva Fist." So this time he used a toe kick. If successful, the toes would pierce the human body, causing massive damage, especially pain. It's common for a martial artist with a weak will to faint on the spot.

Hanon immediately sensed the impending "kidney strike" and retreated, preparing to pull her body back. However, Doppo had anticipated her reaction. As soon as Hanon began to retreat, Doppo retracted his kick and lunged forward with both hands, grabbing Hanon's shoulders and using the momentum of her retreat to press her down.

This time it was Kanon's turn to lose her balance.

Being pinned to the ground, it was very likely that they would enter into a battle of techniques. Hanon did not think she could beat the "Martial God" who had been training for decades in this aspect, not to mention that the blood on her face was still wet and she couldn't open her eyes!

So Kanon fought against Doppo's suppression with all her might. Her explosive power was enough to make up for the difference in weight. Doppo could only press her down for a while, but he couldn't overpower her.

However, Doppo had no intention of dragging the situation into a group battle.

He's a karate practitioner, not a judo practitioner. Karate practitioners specialize in powerful standing techniques, where the fight is decided by standing upright. Besides, Doppo and "Hua Jin" are just strangers who get along well. It's unknown whether this young man is skilled in group techniques. He uses jujutsu so well; what if he's a group technique expert?

So the old martial god deliberately loosened his grip. His purpose in pressing down was simply to lower Joaquin's position to a certain degree so that he could unleash another deadly move.

Just as Kanon concealed the technique of manipulating power, Doppo Guji also concealed many moves, one of which was called "Six Waves Reflection," which caused the sutures in the opponent's skull to split by striking it. Strictly speaking, it was already a forbidden killing technique... But Joaquin was too strong. Doppo Guji blinded himself with blood and created a situation with great difficulty, waiting for such a fatal opportunity.

"Very good!" Seeing that "Joaquin" chose to protect his head with both hands after breaking free from his suppression, but neglected the defense on the top of his head, Yuji Doppo knew that his victory was in the bag. "Your skull can't be as durable as your torso, can it? Even if your force-dissipating technique is superb and your head is not afraid of being hit, your torso is pressed so low that you can only hit the ground with your head. If I launch a surprise attack on you without any defense, you can't possibly move away, can you?"

"I hope you don't die after taking this blow, young brother..." Du Bu felt a pang of pity, yet his attack was ruthless. In truth, besides the title of "God of War," he also held the fearsome reputation of "Tiger Fiend" and "Man-Eating Python"...

Given this situation, Hua Yinteng really couldn't move... but the outcome of the match is still uncertain.

Just as Du Bu's "Six Waves Back" was halfway down, "Joaquin" covered his head with both hands and charged straight forward! This was completely unexpected for Du Bu, who was a beat too slow and was hit in the chest by his opponent first. "Six Waves Back" hit the trapezius muscle on the back of "Joaquin's" neck, greatly reducing its effectiveness.

Throughout the battle, Kanon faced relatively little pressure on the defensive end, even though the "Bodhisattva Fist" had a very limited effect on neutralizing force. As a result, Kanon's combat choices became bolder, leaning more towards offense. In the final moments, when visibility was poor, she was willing to charge forward rather than defend. This collision was a microcosm of the overall trend of the battle.

In other words, Yudi Dubu's last two tactical choices were correct and shrewd, but he lost because of the overall situation.

After the violent impact, both of them leaned back. However, Hanon was prepared for the impact and immediately regained control of her body, while Doppo, due to an unexpected turn of events, completely lost his balance.

Taking advantage of the situation, Hanon wiped the blood from her eyes with her arm. After regaining her vision, she saw Doppo Inochi, who was wide open and completely out of balance. So the next choice was clear—attack and neutralize his power!

A straight punch landed on the "God of War's" chest, and Yudi Dubu coughed up blood again. This time, it didn't splatter on Huayin's face, but spread across the entire arena. His heavy body flew back six or seven meters and lay on the ground without a sound.

Anyone can see that the outcome is already decided!

Author's Note: Whew, so tired... I hope this chapter's description can make that scene clear.

Section 551, Chapter 545: I'll go shake hands.

"The Martial God, Yu Di, ultimately met his tragic end on the field. Joaquin emerged victorious. This is a testament to violence surpassing brute force, absolute strength defeating absolute power..."

The stadium announcer said this, and Hana glanced at the commentary booth: "That guy has terrible judgment; he's been talking nonsense the whole time."

It seems that having Jerry Tyson as a commentator during the elimination rounds was a great help, at least in terms of enhancing the professionalism of the commentators. Tonight, however, the commentators can only take on the responsibility of creating a lively atmosphere.

Doppo Guji was very strong. Although his raw strength was inferior to Kanon's, he still managed to drag Kanon into a tough battle through experience, parrying moves, and a bit of cleverness. Fortunately, he had mastered the technique of dissipating energy. If it were Kanon from the era of the Doomsday Tournament, she would have had an even harder time and would have been more seriously injured.

Hanon shook her head and walked towards the entrance passage.

"Hey kid, are you just going to leave like that?" came Doppo's voice from behind.

This elderly gentleman is in good health and has actually regained consciousness, but he is still sore all over and cannot get up for the time being.

"Aren't you going to give me the final blow?" Du Bu said softly. "This isn't an ordinary sparring match. In the end, I used a move like 'Six Waves Reflection,' which has entered the realm of a life-or-death struggle. The referee's ruling doesn't matter. In a martial artist's death match, you can't leave without completely eliminating your opponent..."

"Oh my, there's such a request..." Hanon stopped, turned around, and walked back to Doppo Ooji.

"Hey! Dad...no...!" Katsumi's back was instantly soaked with cold sweat. He realized that his adoptive father was begging for death!

But what good were his shouts? Joaquin bent down and punched the immobilized Dubu!

"Sigh..." Katsumi's leg was seriously injured, so he couldn't rush over. He could only let out a miserable cry and close his eyes. Kato Kiyosumi and Suedo Atsushi next to him were even weaker and didn't even have time to react.

Baki, being slightly stronger and not seriously injured, dashed out immediately after realizing Doppo's intentions.

But Baki was also a step too slow; at that distance, there was no way he could outrun Joaquin's iron fist...
