Actually, the scene in front of me wasn't particularly shocking. It was just Coach Jie Xiong doing barbell presses while wearing only his underwear. Putting aside the question of where he found the barbell, this kind of scene was just a typical day at Mr. Shirogane's gym...
The crucial point is that the ghost possessing Gina was so focused on looking at the memories of "President Pekin" that he was completely unaware of Mr. Shirogane's gym.
More importantly, Machio Meizou's family has a long-standing tradition of being a male shrine priest...
So, the ghost, who was rolling around on the ground, not only went blind, but his spiritual pressure also became unstable. Specks of white light began to appear on Ghost Gina's body: "Ah! How is this possible?! I'm being purified!"
That's reality; no matter how much the ghost struggled, he was still driven out of Gina's body.
"The bench press is unbelievable, the muscle strength is truly admirable, Masaki Norizo is really powerful..."
Is this Mr. Ghost's last thought...?
"Yeah, right!"
Gina had just woken up when she looked up and saw that nightmare-inducing face again.
"Mama!" Gina screamed and fainted again, suffering another demonic attack.
"Damn it, I just bumped into a clergyman, what bad luck! Luckily I survived." Reverting to "Gina the Ghost," the ghost quickly gleaned information about Machiyuki from Gina's memories: "Now all that's left is a group of beautiful girls for me to intimidate, hahaha! I'm going to unleash all the suppression I suffered before! Eh, just as I wished, someone else is here!"
Ghost Gina's hearing had also improved considerably. Sure enough, there was laughter in the distance again, and this time both voices were women. Women are naturally gentle and weak, so there shouldn't be any problem with scary things.
Ahem, without anyone noticing, the ghost of "Toyota Tadakatsu," from the carnage of Japan's Warring States period, has returned to the human world with a purpose that has shifted from "unifying the land" to "frightening pitiful young girls"...
This time, Ghost Gina learned her lesson. Although she didn't expect any problems, she still crept into the grass and stealthily approached her new target.
"I remember seeing them in this foreign girl's memories. They were companions named Hanane and Rimi Tachibana, one a rich heiress and the other a female tutor at a private school... Hmph, what kind of embarrassing situation will I make in these two noble ladies? But why are they stopping here?"
The two girls were standing on the road chatting and laughing. The girl named "Ye Huayin" was injured, with both hands wrapped in casts and bandages, but she was in high spirits and was making movements with her legs as she talked.
Gina listened intently, just as Kanon raised one leg high above her head, performing a perfect split, and said to Rimi, "This is the shikatsu from sumo wrestling~ It's said that the strongest wrestlers create a shikatsu called 'Earth Suppression,' which can drive away evil spirits from the earth, and even scare away demons~"
"Huh? What did that girl say? Four legs, enough to scare away even ghosts? Huh—"
Hanon stomped down.
Author's Note: There will be another chapter in a little while.
Section 604, Chapter 597: Fate, the Ascension of Ghosts to Heaven Relies on Coincidence
Rewind a few minutes, and Kanon and Rimi had been climbing the mountain. Kanon was skilled and daring, while Rimi was an atheist. In addition, the two were good at making sarcastic remarks, so they chatted and laughed all the way, not taking the "test of courage" seriously at all.
As fellow members of Mr. Shirogane's gym, their common topic naturally revolved around fitness. From fitness, they talked about Kanon's injured arm, and gradually, half-jokingly, they drifted to martial arts. Kanon, on a whim, began to discuss the differences and strengths and weaknesses of various martial arts styles. Unfortunately, these were things that novelist Yuika Nogami had recently treasured, but now, facing Rimi, a cosplayer by profession, they held no credibility whatsoever.
It's not that Rimi isn't interested in martial arts, it's just that Kanon showed off her amazing skills in front of Yuika, and in the eyes of everyone at Mr. Shirogane's gym, she has always been an ordinary fitness enthusiast. Although she has a great figure and amazing abs, when you think of Kanon, you subconsciously feel that she is so weak and can't be associated with a strong person.
So, in addition to explaining, Kanon also added some physical movements to help illustrate her points. Before "Gina the Demon" saw her doing the quadruped, Kanon had already demonstrated the so-called "embroidered leg" of Chinese martial arts and the "kick" of karate to Rimi. She even did an impromptu somersault and performed the "genocide cut" of KOF Rugal... Well, since there was no target to attack, if she just kicked quickly in the air, Rimi would think that she was just jumping very high.
Sumo and yoko were only mentioned at the very end.
"Wow, that's amazing! I didn't expect you to know so much about sumo, Kanon!" Although Rimi didn't realize how strong Kanon was, she saw that Kanon could talk about everything from judo and karate to boxing, kung fu, wrestling, sambo, and now sumo, and seemed very knowledgeable. So she had to give her some applause.
Next up is Kanon's four legs. As the saying goes, all martial arts under heaven return to the same source. A strong wrestler like Kanon, with comprehensive skills and rich experience, can still be called a "powerhouse" in sumo wrestling, even if there is a big difference in size. And when she stomps her feet to "suppress the earth" with her mind and energy as one, it still has some effect... probably.
Anyway, the moment the first step was taken, a flock of birds suddenly took flight from the deep mountains where the Barbarian Meat Temple was located.
"Wow! That's amazing!" Rimi wasn't entirely convinced that Kanon was responsible, but the timing was perfect. Out of professional habit as a teacher, she chose to encourage Kanon: "Try again, Kanon~"
"Alright!" Hanon also thought that startling birds was too exaggerated and that she definitely couldn't have done it herself. But just like a child can hold a wooden sword and imagine that he is an unparalleled sword immortal, Hanon can also pretend that her four legs can stomp out a sky full of seagulls!
Hanon raised one leg high again and stomped it down hard.
This time, the earthquake trembled, and cicadas chirped in the mountains and grasslands—strange, it's still spring, yet cicadas are chirping?
"Wow, this is amazing!" Rimi was starting to waver: "Such a great effect, is it really all done by Kanon's four strands?"
"Uh..." Hana's forehead was already covered in cold sweat. The timing was a bit right, but she knew that she could naturally learn the four-legged technique, but the so-called "earthly town" was something that only existed in legends. Where was she supposed to learn it?
The two women stared at each other for a few seconds before Rimi hesitated and said, "How about... we try again?"
Hanon shook her head: "Let's wait and see."
Wait, wait, one second, two seconds, three seconds, ah, sure enough, another vibration came.
This isn't some "earthly town" at all; it's clearly just another small earthquake that Japan, a country prone to earthquakes, has experienced...
"Haha, so it was an earthquake." Rimi's atheism became even stronger: "I knew Kanon, a frail girl, couldn't possibly cause such a commotion!"
"Yeah, that's right..." Hanon agreed, but also felt a little melancholy. It was really too much of a stretch to pursue the fantasy effect in a low-level martial arts world. The so-called "ultimate four-strand technique that can scare away even ghosts" was just sumo wrestling embellishing itself.
"Let's go."
But are four strands really useless?
After Hanon and Rimi had walked away, Gina's arm suddenly appeared in the grass with a "snap"—she had fainted again.
Above the grass where Gina lay, a blue-white will-o'-the-wisp flickered, its light somewhat dim. After a few leaps, it "poof" fell back into Gina's body.
"Phew—" Having successfully exorcised the demon again, Oni Gina let out a long sigh of relief and slowly woke up: "That was terrifying. Do people in this era all have such strong exorcism abilities? She's just a petite rich girl, yet she can create a four-legged yokozuna-level yokozuna. Luckily, there was an earthquake, otherwise, if she had stomped her third time, I would have been purified!"
The birdsong and cicada chirping were all caused by the earthquake, but Huayin's four streams did indeed have an effect, stimulating a small amount of "earth energy" to surge upwards. As a result, Gui Gina, who was closely impacted by the earth's spiritual energy, had a brush with death... Considering Mr. Ghost's situation, he was probably going to face the real gates of hell.
After two setbacks, this ghost had lost all "expectations for ghost life." He just wanted to scare someone once, but he couldn't achieve his wish no matter what he did.
Suddenly someone patted Gina on the shoulder: "Miss, what are you doing crying here all by yourself?"
That's Ryo Saeba! He sneaked into the Manrou Temple to protect Kanon—no way, Ryo was just looking for an opportunity to grope her! Protecting Kanon was just a job he did on a whim. After all, he didn't really believe in ghosts and spirits and didn't think that the film crew's activity area could actually be haunted or threaten Kanon.
Now, a beautiful white-haired woman with a good figure is crying softly. You can guess she's the pretty staff member: "Several couples have already gone up the mountain tonight, and your work is almost finished. How about we go have some dinner and then have some fun?"
"Waaah, I'm in a bad mood, what did you say, 'Let's do it'?" Before Gina turned her head, the ghost's face popped out from the back of her head. It was still that terrifyingly ugly face, with a head as big as a bucket and bulging eyes that seemed to be weeping blood. It scared Ryo Saeba so much that he let out a "howl"—City Hunter is incredibly powerful when he's serious, but when he's not serious, his stats are reduced by more than 10%.
Ryo Saeba fainted from fright.
"Huh? I scared someone into fainting? I succeeded?" The ghost was stunned. Unexpectedly, his ideal of "successfully scaring someone into fainting" had been achieved.
"Although I didn't scare any couples, I'm already completely satisfied. I have no regrets about my life... Pfft." Mr. Ghost has become a Buddha!
The concept of fate, or the idea that ghosts ascend to heaven depends on coincidence, is probably true.
The desolate mountain was silent. Gina, freed from the ghost's possession, quickly awoke, but had no memory of what had just happened: "How did I get here? And where's the sound? She and Coach Machigaku have already gone past? Strange... Ah, sir, what's wrong? Why did you collapse in front of me?"
The only person who was scared at this test of courage was Ah Liao...
Author's note: Tomorrow will be another day, but there will be some scenes related to Kanon's training. After that, the story will move from the daily life to the death row inmate arc.
As for today, the fourth watch has already been delivered.
Regarding the setting of ghosts, there won't be any Bleach or Yu Yu Hakusho-like plots in the future... The setting of ghosts is a setting that was already present in Kengan & Muscle Girl, plus the superpowered daughter related to Hitomi before. These are just some additional settings that I'm adding. The low-martial-power world is also a low-magic world, so ghosts and superpowers won't take up much space. When they do appear in a larger part, this book will be nearing its end.
Section 605, Chapter 598: Injuries from a fight, and then just as he was about to get into another fight.
Time flies, and another week has passed in the blink of an eye. Spring is more than halfway over, and the prelude to summer has arrived.
Flowers are in full bloom, the weather is fine and sunny, today is a good day, and it is also special - it is the day that Hanon has completely removed her cast and bandages!
"Miss Hanon, the X-ray shows that your arm is fine now." Dr. Eicho looked at the X-ray: "After all, you are a young person in your growth period. The prognosis for your bones is very good. You have no sequelae. In fact, due to 'overcompensation,' your bones are even stronger than before."
"So... I can get rid of the cast on my left hand too?" Hanon's right hand injury was less severe, and it had been removed a while ago. After freeing up one hand, she said goodbye to City Hunter and went home.
That night, Ryo Saeba was terrified by the ghost of "Tadakatsu Toyota," and coupled with his recent fever and weakened state, he fell seriously ill again after returning home. This exhausted his partner, Kaori Makimura, who had to take care of two sick people at the same time—it was no easy task! Kanon had originally offered to send two maids from her household to help, but the pretty maids were harassed by Ryo, so they couldn't come. "Egg" and "Yu" had made a brief appearance before being firmly rejected by Ryo, so Kanon could only go home early to help Kaori relieve some of the pressure.
Today, Dr. Hideaki examined Kanon's left arm, the part where she clashed with Yujiro Hanma in the third move: "It's fine now, the bone is fine, we can remove the cast now, all that's left is to rebuild the muscles, and the rehabilitation training needs to keep up... Well, that's not a problem for Miss Kanon at all."
Yingchu had a deep understanding of Kanon's strength. In his opinion, Kanon's daily training must be very tough. The muscle atrophy during the injury period should recover in about a week!
However, Eiichi underestimated Kanon...
"As long as there's nothing wrong with my bones, I'm not afraid to exert force~" Hana suddenly exerted force with her left arm, her muscles tensed and expanded, and with a "bang", she directly shattered the plaster cast.
Kanon was able to sense the recovery of her muscles and nerves early on, and using her talent, she had been slowly and rhythmically moving her muscles to maintain their vitality. The plaster cast was for bone setting to prevent the movement of the arm from causing bone misalignment, but Kanon could perform muscle exercises while keeping her bones still, so despite being restricted for a long time, her muscles did not atrophy at all.
Forget rehabilitation training, you could fight people right now!
"Ah, Miss Kanon always manages to surprise people..." Yingchu stared intently at Kanon's muscles, feeling a chill run down her spine. "Miss Kanon, could you sign an agreement for an autopsy if you suffer a fatal injury next time..."
"Um, Dr. Ying, can you wish me something good?" The first thing Hanon did after the bandage on her arm was to rub her forehead.
Yingchu kept pestering Hanon for a signature, but luckily, nurse Yoshizawa Kokomi came and pulled him away. Kokomi is quite tired now, running between Teito University and the hospital where Yingchu works.
"Hana, congratulations on your arm recovery! You must have a lot of things you want to do after all this time, right? What's the first thing?" Kokoro asked Hanon as she pushed Eicho out the door.
"Oh, I already made plans to visit a friend today."
"That's great! Should we treat ourselves to a big meal to celebrate?"
"There should be a big meal, right? I don't think all Japanese monks are vegetarians..." Hanon rotated her shoulders and twisted her joints. Although her muscles could maintain their training, her bones had been truly fixed for a long time, so there was a sense of unfamiliarity. "I hope they will prepare meat, after all, it will be very tiring after a fight."
"Huh? Fighting?" Yoshizawa Kokomi was shocked: "You're going to fight again right after your injuries from the previous fight have healed?"
"It's just a friendly sparring match."
In hand-to-hand combat, the number of people who could inflict such severe injuries on Hanon is probably countless, even on one hand. This low-level martial arts world isn't teeming with fierce warriors or as common as dogs... However, the place Hanon is going to has a tiny, insignificant connection to Yujiro Hanma. They were both people Hanon met at the Tokyo Dome underground fighting arena, but neither of them were official competitors—Sōryūjin of the Japanese Pōrinji Kenpo style.
As she stepped out of the hospital, Hana unexpectedly ran into an acquaintance: "Oh, Hitomi? Did you come to pick me up? How thoughtful!"
It had been a long time since I'd seen Kanon's personal secretary, Hitomi Mishima. After Kanon got injured, I gave her a break and only assigned her to handle some miscellaneous business matters. Today, when the stitches were being removed, Kanon didn't call anyone, but I unexpectedly bumped into her at the door.
But when Xiaotong saw Hanon, she also looked surprised: "Miss Hanon! You didn't say you'd remove the cast today!"
"Then what is this...?"
“I’m here to pick up another friend. She also broke her leg and is getting her cast removed today… Ah, Hina, here she is.”
As Xiaotong waved, another middle school girl ran over. She was a short-haired girl who looked quite ordinary.
