Wing Chun, Ip Man, and then it's all about slapping and banging. This is the nature of martial arts. In a fight, it usually goes down to this stage – it's all about using fists.
What about using a gun?
Using a gun is quick; with a "bang," it's over, like a lover's rapid breathing, a philosopher's sigh while pondering, a raindrop hitting a railing, and everything quickly returns to silence.
The duel between Ryo Saeba and the God of the Sea was like this: after the gunshot, the God of the Sea stood up, while Ryo fell to the ground.
But the person who falls to the ground may not die; it is the person who was shot who dies.
Ah Xiang's scream turned into joy. Saeba Ryo sat up from the ground and touched the burning bloodstain on his chest. It was a bullet graze, but it was just a graze.
Where was Haiyuan Shen? A spurt of blood shot from his chest, leaving a hole where a bullet had struck and pierced through. Then blood flowed from his mouth, nose, and chest... Blood soaked through his clothes, draining his strength. His decades-long feud with Saeba Ryo had finally come to an end.
Ryo Saeba walked over to bid his adoptive father a final farewell and bent down to pick up a necklace from the ground: "This is the necklace that Aya gave to Mike... Could it be that when he was attacked by Kanon just now, he slipped over here, and then the Sea God lost his balance because he stepped on it, which caused him to miss?"
Ryo turned to look at Hanon: "She... might be our lucky angel."

"Ryo!" Suddenly, Umibozu on the other side of the glass wall banged on the door: "Quickly stop the self-destruct bombs! This guy has set up the cruise ship's self-destruct program!"
"Ah, right!" Ryo Saeba ran to the control panel to check, but as a professional as he was, he immediately realized the situation: "This...this company didn't set a stop command at all!"
"This...this is really bad..."
"Boom!" A violent explosion occurred at the stern of the cruise ship, causing everyone inside to lose their balance. Miki and Mary, who were waiting on the speedboat outside, were also startled: "The ship has broken in two! What happened to Ryo and Umibozu?"
"Damn it, the ship is doomed! We have to fight our way out!" Umibozu pounded on the iron gate: "Damn it, it's blocked."
Ah Xiang shouted, "Ah Liao, quickly break the glass wall and come join us! Let's all think of a solution together!"
Ryo Saeba shook his head: "No, there's no button on the control panel to raise the glass wall. It seems that the Sea God has blocked the way... But it's okay. You guys find a way to leave quickly, and I'll find another way to escape."
Unexpectedly, Ah Xiang resolutely rejected the suggestion: "No! I can see that you don't want to leave at all. You killed your adoptive father with your own hands, and you are crying inside. You never thought of running away... Waaah, I won't let you die alone."
“Ah Xiang…” Ryo Saeba was speechless. Ah Xiang’s words touched his soul. So Ryo and Ah Xiang faced each other through the glass: “What are you saying? I didn’t think about dying. Listen to me, the Sea God is not the kind of guy who goes down with the ship. He must have left a secret passage to escape. I’m going to find this secret passage to leave. You will go with Hanon and Umibozu.”
Before Ah Xiang could speak, Ah Liao interrupted her: "Don't worry, I'm sincere. When have I ever broken a promise I made to you?"
The two City Hunters gazed into each other's eyes, their eyes filled with tenderness, and shared a final kiss through the glass wall.
The two of them reached a complete understanding—please escape and meet again alive.
"Ahem, excuse me." Hana suddenly interrupted: "Although I'm no longer single, it's still not very comfortable to be shown affection in front of others. You've already been very kind of you to let you kiss... Now please allow me to get down to business."
"Huh?" ×3. Besides Ryo and A-Xiang, Umibozu was also shocked. He carried the unconscious Mike while looking at Kanon. He didn't actually know this girl. He only knew that he had been knocked unconscious by Mike and that she appeared when he woke up. Apart from being an ally on his side, everything else was a mystery. Now she said she had to "do serious business". What was that?
Then Umibozu witnessed an unimaginable scene.
The bikini-clad beauty named "Huanyin" punched a bulletproof glass wall, and the bulletproof wall was cracked and dented! Is this human power?
However, Hanon still felt that she hadn't performed well: "This glass wall is of good quality; it would take two punches to break through it."
Then came the second punch, which wasn't particularly fast or powerful, but its effect was comparable to a rocket launcher. With a muffled thud, the bulletproof glass didn't shatter, but rather a whole dented section was blasted away, creating a large hole that could easily fit a person inside.
"Ryo..." After reuniting with Ryo Saeba, Umibozu asked the question that had been bothering him: "Could this little girl be a biological weapon secretly developed by the government? When did you encounter her?"
"This uncle must be Umibozu, right? I don't like hearing you say that." Hanon walked over and smashed the locked iron door with another punch: "I'm just a mere martial artist."
"Hiss—" Umibozu thought to himself, "I know quite a few black belts in karate and judo, but none of them are as strong as you." But he couldn't say that out loud. As steady as he was, he didn't dare to offend Kanon before he understood her temperament. What if Kanon punched him too?
"Boom!" The bomb triggered a series of explosions, causing the cruise ship to tilt even more.
"Anyway, now is not the time to talk, let's go!" At A-Liao's call, everyone rushed outside. Thanks to Hanon opening up a normal passage, the journey was smooth, and everyone quickly rushed onto the deck.
"Ryo!" "Umibozu!" Mary and Miki were overjoyed to see everyone escape safely and quickly called for everyone to disembark. Akane went first, Umibozu carried Mike and jumped into the sea second. Ryo asked Kanon to jump first for the third spot, but Kanon declined, saying, "You're exhausted too, you jump first."
Ryo Saeba was indeed very tired, and since the matter was over, there was no need to worry about anything more. Kanon was skilled, so why should she be afraid that she couldn't get down? So Ryo agreed and jumped into the sea as well.
But even a minute after A-Liao climbed onto the speedboat, Hanon still hadn't come down. Everyone shouted anxiously, only to see Hanon stick her head out from the deck: "I have something to do, please wait for me."
After saying all that, Hana turned her head and looked at the passage leading to the cabin. The sun was almost completely setting, and the light was not very good. Especially under the light of the explosion, the passage looked even darker.
But what's truly terrifying is the inexplicable killing intent emanating from the passageway.
When you deal with something for a long time, you become very sensitive to its aura. Although the "thing" in the cabin cleverly concealed its murderous intent, it could at most fool assassins and mercenaries like Ryo and Umibozu, but it couldn't fool Kanon, who was also a martial artist.
"I'm telling you, uncle, stop pretending."
Hanon took a step forward, narrowly avoiding a palm strike aimed at the back of her head.
"Using murderous intent to mislead others and then launching a sneak attack, you're really despicable." Hua Yin turned her head and saw a tall man completely wrapped in a black robe: "Are you a mercenary too?"
"No, I'm just an ordinary illegal immigrant~" The man took a step forward, letting Hana see his face clearly—bald, with a face full of wrinkles, he seemed to be in his fifties, not young at all: "My name is Spek, and I came to Tokyo seeking defeat."
Author's Note: Whew, all done! We finally released the first death row inmate. The Death Row Inmate Chapter is now a full-fledged serial.
Section 613, Chapter 606: Spek? No, it's Freddy.
“I’ve never heard of Spek, but as for stowaways…” Hana tapped her hands together: “So this transnational mercenary group is also involved in human trafficking! Uncle, did you pay for your own smuggling or were you kidnapped by them? Hmm, you probably paid for it yourself. You’re so old, so ugly, and so despicable, no one should have kidnapped you on purpose.”
"What?" Spek was taken aback at first, then laughed and said, "Hehehe, little girl, you're really good at talking nonsense. No one on this ship knows I exist. I sneaked into the ship's cabin from the American coast and have been hiding in the tool room at the bottom ever since."
Hana raised an eyebrow: "So, Uncle, you should thank us. We've taken care of all the 'creditors' on the ship for you, and now you can show up on the deck without any problems."
"'Creditors'?" Speck laughed even harder: "Them? I stayed on the ship for a week and no one noticed. If we had docked in Tokyo normally, I probably would have killed them all. You killed them, which deprived me of the pleasure of torture."
"Torture and murder...you really have a twisted sense of humor." Hanon looked at Spek's bizarre appearance and murderous aura and couldn't help but feel disgusted: "Also, I didn't kill the people here."
“I understand, I understand,” Spek said again. “After all, you’re just a martial artist! I followed the scent of blood to the deck, but I didn’t smell any trace of bloodshed on you.”
Kanon's resistance intensified: "'Just' a martial artist? Then what kind of person comes to Tokyo seeking defeat?"
“As you can see, it’s a ghost!” Spek suddenly launched into a tirade.
Earlier, while he and Huayin were chatting about this and that, he had been quietly moving with small, quick steps. His long black robe covered his feet, and taking advantage of the dim light, he moved slowly, making it difficult to attract attention. Suddenly, he sprang into action, his black robe billowing out, his long legs thrusting forward. Although the two were still not close, it was enough for Spek's toe to pierce Huayin's kidney.
Startled, Hanon quickly retreated. The distance between them was already very close, and by retreating slightly, Spek's kick would miss its mark. However, Spek was nearly two meters tall, with unique limb proportions—long arms and legs—and his toes still grazed Hanon's body, slightly affecting her balance.
Taking advantage of the slowing of Kanon's retreat, Spek took a big step after landing his kick and swung his fist at Kanon's face—this was his real move. If a kidney kick could only cause pain, then a heavy punch to the face was a sure-kill technique that could directly render someone powerless to resist.
"Bang!" Spek landed! The distance of the punch was perfectly controlled, and he put in a lot of force, making it extremely heavy.
But Kanon only took two or three steps back without losing her balance.
"This girl is really tough~" Spek thought to himself. He had been hiding in the deepest part of the ship's cabin, in the escape route that the Sea God had prepared for him. Normally, no one could check that place, and he had enough supplies, so he wouldn't show himself. It wasn't until the explosion that the ship tore apart and tilted that Spek rushed out.
Therefore, Spek did not witness Kanon's performance.
In fact, he didn't even know who Hanon was!
So he attacked Kanon?
Of course! This kind of ruthless guy is like the Fire Cloud Evil God in the movies. When he's calm, he can take a heavy punch to the face without a problem, but once he goes berserk, he'll fight anyone, no matter the outcome, and he'll use any brutal method. Hanon just happened to meet Spek on this ship, and just happened to be discovered by him to be a martial artist…
That means either being killed by Kanon, or killing Kanon.
So what if it can take a beating? It won't stop the Spek from chasing!
Well, someone like Spek has serious psychological problems. Kanon isn't a psychologist, so she can't solve psychological problems... If psychology doesn't work, then let's rely on physics.
"Huh?" Halfway through his attack, Spek suddenly realized something was wrong, but before he could react, his footing gave way beneath him. The deck that should have been there had broken open, sending Spek tumbling down with a long scream: "Aaaaaaahh ...
Given Kanon's practical experience, how could Spek's constant forward movement during the conversation possibly fool her? Even if it could fool her, with Kanon's reflexes and reaction speed, how could Spek possibly hit her?
The answer is, Kanon did it on purpose.
The loss of balance from the kick was just for show; the punch that followed was real. However, as Kanon retreated, she transferred the force to her feet. Her first step back shattered the deck, creating a makeshift trap. When Spek chased after her, she fell into the hole.
"Heh, I knew it." Hana patted the dust off her hands. "This Uncle Spek doesn't look very bright."
However, Kanon quickly noticed a new problem: "No matter how big the ship is, it should have made a sound when it hit the ground after falling for so long... Ah!"
With a startled cry, Hana quickly jumped back a step. Just as her feet left the deck, a small hole suddenly appeared where she had been standing, and a man's hand shot out.
It was Spek! Instead of falling to the bottom, he hung below the deck and launched a surprise attack on Kanon.
"Tsk, that's a bit scary. He's just like Freddy Krueger from 'A Nightmare on Elm Street.'" Hanon felt a chill. With a real ghost like Tadakatsu Toyota already in her life, the thought of a horror movie made Hanon feel a bit uncomfortable.
"Bang!" The deck broke open again, a hand reached out, and Hana nimbly dodged it. Then she raised one leg high and stomped down hard—four legs! Ahhh!
In her excitement, Hanon unleashed a powerful attack that instantly shattered a large section of the deck, revealing a gaping hole.
However, Spek wasn't there.
To Hanon's horror, she saw that the hand reaching out from the deck was actually a bloody severed arm, forcibly embedded in the deck, and then falling directly into the darkness as the deck cracked.
It was just a diversionary tactic by Sbek.
Before Hanon could think any further, the deck beneath her feet cracked open again, and this time the outstretched hand truly belonged to Spek... He grabbed Hanon's ankle!
"Ah!" Hana, who was already startled by the severed hand, felt the rough palm of the hand from the other hand and immediately got goosebumps and screamed.
Then Spek shouted, "Awooo—"
Emmm, although Hanon was caught off guard and a little flustered, she reacted naturally as a martial artist and had all the necessary actions. Her goosebumps were rather long and sharp.
Because she is not good at group techniques, Kanon has her own secret to avoid being dragged into them. Her muscles can instantly condense into needles to sting her opponents. Wakatsuki Samurai has experienced this before, as has Alexander Kare, and now it's Spac's turn.
Spek released his grip and retreated with lightning speed, leaving only a hole in the deck.
For a moment, the deck was quiet.
Hana-on remained vigilant: "I still didn't hear the sound of him falling to the bottom of the boat."
It should have been a muffled "thump".
But Hanon only heard a loud "bang"—right behind her.
Speck crashed through the deck and charged back up.
Author's Note: Hmm, the death row inmate arc really does start with a fight right from the beginning.
