"Oh! Oh! Oh!" The passerby boxers cheered excitedly.

The man added, "And also, even if you lose, you can't back down! If anyone doesn't act like a man, I'll teach you a lesson on behalf of my mother back home. Watch out, you might get a tropical thunderbolt from me!"

"Oh oh oh!" The passerby boxers were once again filled with excitement.

After the man finished speaking, he seemed to be calling out to the other person in the room: "Hey, aren't you going to say something?"

"..." The person being called didn't respond, but everyone heard the sound of a chair moving, as if someone had stood up and walked towards the crowd.

"Wow! We're totally inspired!"

Well, it seems that just seeing that silent person ignited ten times the passion in the passerby boxers.

"Sigh, you're still more popular. I spent more time training with the younger boxers at the gym..." The man sighed, then called the random boxer to the stage: "Go fight, you ungrateful brats."

So when Kanon and the Uehara sisters arrived at the door, they bumped into a boisterous passerby boxer before they even entered, leaving the house empty except for the two of them.

"Ah, is that Nana and Ayaka?" The man near the door, the one who talked more, greeted the three women: "Why is there a little girl with her hands tied? Is this kind of 'severe injury' look popular among young people these days?"

The man had a very standard build, nearly 1.8 meters tall and weighing about 70-80 kilograms. He had a capable demeanor and well-defined muscles, clearly a seasoned veteran. His appearance was also quite interesting; his mohawk was dyed in various colors and had several small dreadlocks. He had a lightning bolt-shaped scar on his right eye, though it was unclear whether it was a real wound or painted on.

"Cai Yaxiang, I watched the match on TV. Although you easily defeated your opponent, your abs are a problem. You need to work on them!" the man said.

"Okay, I know!" Ayaka stuck out her tongue and introduced, "This is Mabihara, a registered member of my family's boxing gym. He used to be the Japanese middleweight boxing champion!"

"In other words, it's all about appearances!" Makihara was extremely familiar with the Uehara sisters, having practically watched them grow up. Compared to them, he was more interested in Kanon: "Little sister, your style is quite unique. Are you Ayaka's friend? Come to the gym more often in the future~ We can exchange ideas about styles."

Ayaka complained, "Shinbi-nii, your fashion sense is notoriously bad! Kanon is really hurt."

"Who could have hurt you so badly?" Suddenly, another person in the room asked.

Hana looked over and, oh, it was a familiar face again—

"Hana, you've definitely heard of him, he's the face of our gym, the former world heavyweight unification champion, Gaolang Unsavardo!" Ayaka proudly introduced, "He was injured before, but he's recently recovered. He occasionally comes to my house for rehabilitation training. Hmph, don't tell Gina about this, Gaolang's schedule is very secretive, and with Gina's personality, she'll definitely turn into a stalker if she finds out."

“Yes, I know about Gaolang’s injury…” Hanon said somewhat awkwardly, “My injury… is probably similar, hahaha.”

Although she was terrible at lying, Gaolang was one of the more common-sense fighters. He quickly saw through the situation and stopped questioning Hanon. Instead, he subtly encouraged the Uehara sisters to go outside and cheer for the random boxers.

"Well then, let's go to the sidelines first. Hanon, hurry up and come too~" The Uehara sisters, unsuspecting, greeted them and left with Maki to cheer on their boxer. Gaolang, on the other hand, stayed in the locker room. He was a big shot in the boxing world and couldn't easily show his face at the sidelines, as it would cause a commotion.

As for Kanon, judging from her coy manner, Ayaka thinks she probably wants Gaolang's autograph...

It's easier to talk when only Kanon and Gaolang are left.

"Tyson, who will succeed you as the heavyweight champion, also has a match later." Hanon changed the subject: "I've seen his fights. Although his punches are heavy, his overall strength is not as good as yours."

"..." Gaolang was silent for a moment, then asked again, "Miss Ye, who caused you to suffer such serious injuries?"

Gaolang lost to Kanao, and Kanao was then defeated by Kanon. Kanao hadn't made Kanon like this more than half a year ago, so Gaolang was really curious about where the world's strongest creature came from that could hurt Kanon like this.

Well, he guessed right; it was the "world's strongest creature" that did it.

"I know." Suddenly the door opened, and Makihara walked in: "It really is you, Hanane. I've heard about your exploits at the Tokyo Dome underground fighting arena~"

Chapter 593, Section 600: Speed ​​is not such an inconvenient thing.

Despite his outgoing appearance, Masahiro is actually quite shrewd. He had been fooling the Uehara sisters with his silly demeanor until now, when he revealed that he knew Kanon. In terms of acting skills, he is far superior to Kanon and Gaolang.

But Maki isn't a bad person either.

"Ye Hanon, disguised as Joaquin, won the Tokyo Dome underground fighting arena, battling Yujiro Hanma to a standstill after three punches, both losing an arm in the process. Tsk tsk, your reputation has been booming lately!" Maki expressed his admiration for Hanon, then changed the subject to Gaolang: "Hey, you, I heard that Ye Hanon is the queen of the Kengan Tournament, and you know her? So you've been secretly fighting in underground boxing matches?"

Shinbei was furious and even punched Gaolang, saying, "Your boxing career almost ended with a broken hand! Take care of yourself, junior!"

Zhenbeibale is 36 years old this year, past the peak of a boxer, but Jia'aolang is only 29, which is the golden age for boxers. If he delays for a year or two to recover from his injury, his good condition will be gone forever.

Shinbi continued rambling: "Although you have achieved more in the boxing world than me and have won every championship you could, don't you feel sorry to see Tyson, who is not as good as you, now reigning supreme? Is it worth it?"

It's probably worth it... Anyway, even Kanon knows that Gaolang and his Thai prince have an incredibly close relationship, and he would go through fire and water for the other's request. Even if he made the same choice a hundred times, the result would be the same.

Moreover, Gaolang wasn't without arguments against Maki; he just wasn't talkative, but when he did refute them...

"Brother Masaki, I remember ten years ago you also went to participate in other competitions, and got injured, which delayed your time to become a professional, right?"

"Ugh... Don't, don't talk back!" Zhenbei Balu immediately realized he was in the wrong. Ten years ago, at the peak of his career, he participated in the martial arts tournament at the Liuzhen Guild Hall before turning professional. It was the same tournament that Zonglongshen and Daimon Tohei participated in. Unfortunately, he was defeated in the first round. Due to his injury, he was delayed for a while, which led to many setbacks in his later professional career.

Speechless after being rebuked by his junior, Shinbi changed the subject. Well, actually, he came for Kanon: "Kanon, let's get closer and closer~ I heard that your last move against Yujiro Hanma was to crash into him at super speed?"

Hanon nodded.

Shinbi added, "Excellent! To be honest, I am also a martial artist known for my speed! Once you have recovered from your injuries, we can have a spar. I am also very curious to see just how fast you can go to face off against the 'world's strongest creature'."

"Oh dear, Maki-nii is such a straightforward person, it would seem pretentious for me to refuse." Kanon didn't dislike Maki's eccentric personality, and even quite liked it: "Speaking of which, I haven't done anything for almost half a month. You don't have to wait for me to recover from my injury, you can do it now."

"Huh?" Masahiro was taken aback: "Both of your hands are injured, how can you spar? I can't take advantage of you like that."

"Then you're wrong." Hanon couldn't warm up properly in this state, so she just twisted her waist and ankles: "To run, you only need your feet."

"Ha, you're so quick-witted, Hanane, you're really likable!" Makihara clapped his hands and said, "That's true. You're known as the strongest in the Kengan Association, which means you're even stronger than Gaolang. I heard that Hanma Yujiro is also a bunch of self-proclaimed strongmen, and you can still fight him to a standstill... It seems like I'm the arrogant one who's taking advantage of you! Come on, come on, this place is too cramped to move around easily, let's find a spacious, deserted place..."

Hua Yin shook her head: "This place is fine. The small space doesn't hinder experts from displaying their skills. Speed ​​is not something so inconvenient."

"...Alright, then let me see just how the legendary strongest woman is!" Makiba took a stance, the Detroit style that Kanon herself occasionally used.

“Interesting.” Hanon glanced at Gaolang: “Gaolang also likes to use this stance, just like Ayaya and Kaoru. Could it be a secret technique from the Uehara Boxing Gym? Then I’ll use it too.”

As she spoke, Kanon began to move like a boxer... Wait a minute, aren't her hands unable to move?

This question also existed in Zhenbei Ba Le's mind... For a second, he clearly felt that Ye Huayin's movements seemed to actually include hand gestures, just like a very experienced boxer posing.

"An illusion?" Maki was puzzled. "No, that's her aura! She seems to really believe that she is swinging her fists. The powerful will not only affects herself, but also me."

Baki Hanma's "imaginary practice" was touted as amazing back then, and although he didn't win against Kanon, it left a deep impression. Recently, out of boredom, Kanon has spent a lot of time studying this theory, wanting to do some simulated battles to relieve her boredom. After some time, she hasn't mastered it completely, but she's made some progress.

Even Gaolang was surprised: "Ye Huayin... didn't have this level of skill during the elimination tournament. Just by looking at the proficiency of her stance, you can tell she has improved a lot! It's terrifying that someone who has already reached that level can still grow so quickly..." For a moment, even this pinnacle of the boxing world felt a surge of fighting spirit.

Seeing Maki's amazed expression, Kanon took the initiative: "Mr. Maki, if you don't move, I'll have to offend you!"

"Whoosh—" Hana rushed forward, her punch seemingly aimed at the target!

"Ah!" Zhenbei Balu was startled. Although there was only air in front of him, he felt an immense crisis, as if a super strong person's fast punch was about to hit him, causing him to involuntarily retreat.

Kanon's "pursuit" was imminent! Her "jab" attacked fiercely, and combined with her actual footwork, her speed reached an unbelievable level. Meanwhile, Makihara, being older, couldn't move as fast as he used to, and was relentlessly pursued, powerless to resist.

"Hey, don't think I'm really weak!" The opponent's aura alone was so oppressive that Shinbei Ba Le couldn't take it anymore. He suddenly threw a punch: "Lightning Strike!"

"So fast—" Hanon was startled. Masaki's jab was so fast that it was almost invisible to the naked eye. It was probably no less than Gaolang's fifteen punches per second. You have to know that compared to the heavyweight division, speed is the lifeblood of middleweight boxers. Masaki is a middleweight king known for his speed. Others punch like the wind, but he punches like lightning.

However, Kanon did not back down. She turned her head to avoid Masaki's attack. With her current level of counter-attack skills, an attack from a boxer who only mobilized his upper body was not a big threat to her. At least she could calmly attack and defend against Masaki's lightning-fast punch.

"Good!" After all, it was just a friendly spar, and both sides held back. It was rare for someone to be able to block a full-speed attack, and he was equally excited: "Let's see this move, Tropical Thunder!"

"Tropical Thunder" is Jinbi's signature move, which he just used to motivate a random boxer. It uses powerful core strength to shake the body and then delivers a powerful, fast side hook that is hard to defend against.

Kanon managed to defend herself—with her mind! Her "imaginary practice" wasn't quite there yet. She could imitate the momentum well, but she couldn't fully apply it to her body. So, in her mind, she "raised her hand" to block the swing punch, but in reality, she used too much force and was thrown backward, losing her balance...

However, it was nothing serious. Hanon quickly regained her balance and bumped into Gaolang. Gaolang also raised his hand to catch her if Hanon lost her balance.

Masahiro stopped what he was doing: "Kanaon, are you alright?"

"I'm fine~" Kanon straightened up and told Maki, then nodded to Gaolang: "Hehe, thanks a lot... Huh?"

Her response was a swift punch from Gaolang—even this reigning champion, who had been recovering from an injury for a long time, couldn't hold back any longer!

Author's Note: Whew, here's the fourth update for today. I'll see if I can manage a fifth update tomorrow or the day after. To be honest, I'm a bit tired.

Chapter 594, Section 601: Super Speed

Gaolang's fist grazed past Hanon's cheek, the force of the punch even cutting a few strands of her hair, but Hanon did not dodge—this punch was not meant to kill, but was just a warning.

"Gaolang, you couldn't hold back either?" Hana asked with a smile. "Your right fist is completely shattered. How has your recovery been over the past six months?"

Gaolang silently assumed a fighting stance, which said it all. However, he had switched the positions of his Detroit-style left and right hands. It seems that once bitten, twice shy; he still couldn't rely on his right fist for primary attacks.

"Come on, I don't care." Hanon couldn't beckon with her finger, so she shook her head.

Hana's appearance was elegant and her demeanor was composed. With a flick of her head, her hair flew wildly. Although it was not intentional, it was extremely alluring, leaving even the real Ba Le stunned: "So dashing!"

While he was in a daze, Gaolang had already thrown a punch at Hanon. His punching speed was still so fast, more than a dozen punches per second, and it was not easy for Hanon to deal with it.

But Kanon was very excited: "It's a real shame we didn't get to fight in the elimination rounds. This is Gaolang's boxing style... It's amazing!"

Gaolang was considered by Gana to be the man who stood at the pinnacle of striking martial arts, while Hanon was also a martial artist who mainly used striking techniques. When they suddenly clashed, although it was just a sparring match, sparks flew. The two quickly exchanged positions and made nearly ten offensive and defensive transitions within three or four seconds!

"Ah, how could you let me off the hook!" At this moment, Zhenbeibala also realized that he had started the whole thing, but how did he end up benefiting Gaolang?

"Get me one too!" Maki suddenly burst into the fray, unleashing a sweeping punch at the two: "Tropical Thunder!"

After both Kanon and Gaolang were forced back by the punch, Kanon was closer to Mabi, so Mabi launched his third killing move at her - "Thunder Death Jet".

If Shinbi's speed was similar to Gaolang's before, then the speed of this punch truly shows the difference between a middleweight and a heavyweight champion.

Fast, very fast, extremely fast, so fast that even someone as strong as Hanon couldn't see it or dodge it!

"Bang—" Hanon was sent flying.

"Oh dear!" But it was Masaki who cried out in surprise: "He got carried away! Hanane is still injured, how could he have hit her?" He rushed over to check: "I'm sorry! I meant to miss a little... Huh?"

Shinichi ran halfway, only to find that Kanon had stood up again, completely unharmed.

"This... Waaah, is my fist really such a powerless thing..." In the blink of an eye, the former boxing champion fell into a vortex of self-doubt.

Gaolang wasn't surprised by this. In terms of two-handed striking techniques alone, he was the world's best. Gano was no match for him, and neither was Kanon. However, Gano ultimately defeated Gaolang, and Kanon defeated Gano. Victory or defeat was the result of many factors. In addition to his offensive prowess, Kanon's defensive skills were even more impressive!

“She’s changed,” Gaolang thought. “She’s stronger now. Before, she could only rigidly withstand attacks, but now she’s even mastered flexible defenses… Such a strong person makes people want to compete against her!”

Gaolang stepped forward, first punching away the doubtful Shinbi, then throwing a punch at Kanon.

Kanon turned her head to dodge, then twisted her body. The powerful aura and muscular rhythm made Gaolang feel the pressure of a punch coming straight at him. Gaolang knew that this was just an illusion created by Kanon and that he didn't really need to dodge, but wasn't this just a sparring match? Kanon had made a move, so he would just treat it as real.

Just as Gaolang retreated, Makiba, having seen the situation clearly, charged forward again to attack Kanon: "Take another Thunder Death Jet from me! I'll see how tough you are!"

In a flash, the three masters shifted positions rapidly in the locker room, one after another, engaging in a chaotic, revolving battle. Occasionally, the sounds of punches rang out as they couldn't stop and ended up hitting each other. However, Hanon possessed the ability to absorb force and was "indestructible," meaning that even if she only used seven or eight tenths of her strength in this sparring match, she could easily stand still and let others beat her. As for Gaolang and Maki, as boxers trained at the same gym, they were very familiar with each other's techniques. Even if they couldn't dodge the lightning-fast punches, they had time to raise their arms to protect their heads, so they were unharmed.
