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

But this time Baki shook his head: "No, I'll wait until he wakes up before I defeat him."

Before Hanon could speak, another voice came from inside the abandoned building: "So you want to hit him, but you have to wait for him to wake up, all for the sake of so-called 'honorable' reasons... You really are still a brat! Little brother."

Judging from his tone, there's no doubt that the person who came was Jack Van Ma.

Jack's enormous body emerged from the shadows, startling Kanon and Baki: "He's gotten even bigger!"

A few months ago at the arena tournament, Jack was 193 centimeters tall. Now he has grown a full 20 centimeters, increasing his height from that of an NBA guard to that of a center. Correspondingly, Jack's weight, bone density, and muscle mass have all increased. His "diamond muscles," which had previously been damaged by the effects of the drugs, have become full and thick again, making him even more imposing.

Because of Jack's drastic change, it took Kanon and Baki a few seconds to realize that the person next to him was Retsu Kaioh!

"Ah, Brother Lie, what brings you here too?"

Lie Haiwang said calmly, "Ye Haiwang, I was a little worried when you left at noon and didn't return, so I came out to look for you. I ran into Jack while having dinner nearby, and we came together."

Seeing that Hana was looking at him with a questioning gaze again, Jack spoke first before she could speak: "I heard that you started a 'war' with the five death row inmates. I have a friend who just found out the location of this death row inmate, so I came to see... To be honest, I'm a little disappointed. You defeated him so easily."

"That's because Kanon is strong, not because the death row inmates are weak." Uh, quite unexpectedly, another voice came from the abandoned building, and it was also someone we knew.

"Katsumi..." Kanon scratched her face, "How did you find this place?"

It turned out that Kanon hadn't ordered lunch for everyone in the Shinshinkai. Of course, no one complained, but seeing that Kanon hadn't returned for a long time, it wasn't just Retsu Kaioh who was worried. Katsumi mentioned this to Kato, who then revealed that Kanon was using satellites to track death row inmates. So Katsumi guessed that Kanon might have gone to find the death row inmates? He called the Takakaze family, asked Ito, and then got the location from the old butler, and sneaked over.

So now there are five people gathered here, facing a Sikorsky who has fainted.

"Uh..." Sikorsky slowly woke up and saw five figures surrounding him. Before he could figure out what was going on, Hanon grabbed his neck and knocked him unconscious again.

Hanon had already noticed that the other four were eyeing Sikorsky covetously, and the atmosphere was clearly not right: "Um, ladies, there's only one Sikorsky..."

"Hand him over to me!" Baki spoke first. "He attacked Kozue, I..."

“You’re still an immature brat.” Jack interrupted Baki: “Fighting for revenge is too low-level. Let me fight him instead! As for the reason… ha, do I need a reason?”

Jack reached out to grab Sikorsky, but Retsu Haiwang held his arm: "Please wait a moment. Ever since the martial artists and the five death row inmates made their pact and started the war, I have been an observer. I have already missed Spek and Dorian. Let me handle this death row inmate from Russia."

Although they came together and were martial arts buddies, Jack's eyes immediately turned hostile when Retsu Kaioh blocked his arm. He stared intently at Retsu Kaioh with a fierce look, and Retsu Kaioh was not to be outdone, kicking back. Sparks seemed to fly between the two, and their intertwined hands were locked in a struggle.

Suddenly, the two men's arms were separated by Katsumi, who scratched his head and said, "Hehe, to be honest, Lord Retsu's reasoning has also touched me. I also want to have a match with Sikorsky."

Sikorsky is like a boy's toy, neither boring nor particularly interesting. It doesn't seem special most of the time, but then one day a few other kids suddenly want to play with it too, and the toy suddenly seems so bright and exciting, incredibly fun!

Men would never want to give away such a toy!

The four of them were on the verge of exchanging blows. Baki, Jack, Retsu Kaioh, and Katsumi all wanted to fight Sikorsky, but it seemed that they would have to settle things first.

"Gentlemen, gentlemen!" Just before things were about to break out, Kanon took a step forward: "Sikorsky is now my prize."

Upon hearing this, the other four were all taken aback. Everyone knew how powerful Ye Huayin was; if she wanted to forcefully keep someone, then no one could compete with her!

But Hanon had other plans: "I have something to say, please listen carefully."

"Sikorsky is neither particularly strong nor weak. Everyone wants to deal with him themselves, including me. Although I've already defeated him, I think we could still make use of him... So I have a suggestion," Hana said. "Let's hold a battle to determine who gets Sikorsky!"

"Sikorsky... a battle for control?" The other four exclaimed in unison, shocked by Kanon's suggestion.

“That’s right, a battle for him.” Hanon had this idea on a whim: “Since everyone is eager to fight, but there’s only one Sikorsky, why not use him as the prize and have a match?”

Jack Van Ma narrowed his eyes: "Very well, it's time for our revenge!"

But Kanon shook her head: "Please, even if you get taller and stronger, you're still no match for me! If it were the same format as the last tournament, I might as well just take Sikorsky away!"

"Then... what do you intend to do?"

Hanon smiled and pointed at them one by one: "Let's be honest. Baki wants to avenge his girlfriend, which is a legitimate reason, and he's the only one who truly wants Sikorsky. But the other three of you, no, including me, aren't really 'needing' Sikorsky! Jack, Retsu, and Katsumi, you just want to fight a worthy opponent, right?"

Seeing the four remain silent, Kanon continued, "So let's split into the 'Baki Team' and the 'Kanon Team.' You four will form a team and win the prize of Sikorsky from me. I will then find three skilled fighters to team up with me for the battle. If you win, Sikorsky will be Baki's to deal with, or you can divide it however you like. If I win, Sikorsky will naturally be mine."

Team up for battles... that sounds interesting.

Seeing that the four were interested, Huayin added, "Relax~ I, Ye Huayin, am all about loyalty, ruthlessness, and having many friends. I promise to keep my word in this competition, and the teammates I've brought are all surprisingly strong individuals~"

“…It’s hard to predict the outcome of a four-on-four match. I have a friend who can also join in. You can find one more person, making it five-on-five!” After a moment of silence, Jack Van Ma said.

The other three had no objections, and the "battle for Sikorsky" was thus settled!

Author's Note: Oh dear, it's too late today, but this battle is going to be very interesting~ It starts tomorrow.

Section 641, Chapter 634: The Monster Construction Team, Preparing for the Battle

Outside an abandoned building, a rather shabby-looking young man is talking to a girl on the phone in a phone booth.

"Hey, my phone's dead~ but I still want to hear your voice."

"Hehe, Xiao Zheng, you're good at sweet talk."

"No way! I'm speaking from the bottom of my heart... Ugh, it's so noisy." The young man sounded like a seasoned PUA (Pick-Up Artist) expert; he had a sweet tongue, but the noise and vibrations outside were constant as he used his flirting skills.

"Ah! Honey, I didn't mean you were noisy, it's just outside... wait for me." Hanging up the phone first, the young man named "Xiao Zheng" stormed out of the phone booth angrily: "What are you doing in the middle of the night, making such a racket? I have important... business to attend to..."

Xiao Zheng stopped talking. He was surprised to see that the building, which had been abandoned for who knows how many years, was actually under construction.

A whole construction team arrived, complete with cranes, excavators, bulldozers, and several large trucks hauling soil and rocks. Dozens of workers were working enthusiastically—and it was the middle of the night!

Xiao Zheng stood there for a while, then suddenly remembered his business and decided to continue protesting. However, as he turned the corner, he bumped into a tall man.

"Tall" is simply not enough to describe this guy; he's practically a "monster." He's over two meters tall, no, over two meters 1.5 meters, with strong muscles, a fierce face, and a mouth full of teeth that look like steel.

In an instant, Xiao Zheng stopped talking and dared not say another word. What was going on? The "monster" glanced at him, and Xiao Zheng felt like he was about to have a heart attack. He shivered and scrambled away.

Will urban legends begin to circulate in this area from now on? A monster construction crew? Emmm...

Ignoring the noisy passersby, "The Monster," aka Jack Vanma, stood there and watched the building's construction unfold. The construction team was very efficient; they sealed off the area where Sikorsky was with cement and steel bars, effectively locking him inside the abandoned building.

"You're really wasting resources." Jack, now in Oliva's guise, expressed his bewilderment at Kanon's elaborate mobilization.

Meanwhile, the client who commissioned the project, Kanon, was sitting not far from Jack, along with Baki, Retsu Kaioh, and Katsumi. Together, they "supervised" Sikorsky's "imprisonment."

Hanon shrugged: "I can't help it. We have to fight a battle for him, so I can't send him to the police station. And you all want Sikorsky in good condition. I can't break his limbs. Even keeping him under anesthesia would hurt my body... As for putting him on the street, please, I'm not as socially irresponsible as you. Death row inmates are vicious and cruel. If we let him run around like that, he might hurt someone."

Since it's their own construction team, the cost of using them isn't high. The person in charge of the project is Musashi Iwao, Kanon's American football teammate in Deimon. In just one year, with the support of Suoh Steel, his family's construction team has become one of the top three in Tokyo, with hundreds of employees and all kinds of machinery and equipment. This kind of mindless, closed-off project can be completed in an hour.

Construction was completed quickly. The sealed-off area had no entrances or exits; Sikorsky was completely enclosed, surrounded by thick steel plates. Even a top expert would likely not be able to escape for ten days to two weeks. Before sealing it off, the construction workers placed survival kits inside, including food, water, and a makeshift toilet… In short, until the “Battle for Sikorsky” ended, no one needed to worry about the “prize” being damaged.

"All done..." Musashi Yan was still the same as ever, his high school years had grown into the face of an old man, and now he was full of doubt: "I don't understand what you're doing... I heard you haven't been to school for a long time recently, and now you're here to blockade death row inmates... Be careful!"

"Hehe, I got it~ Thanks~" After seeing Musashi off, Kanon also said goodbye to Jack, Baki, and the others. Jack, who had just been puzzled by Kanon's behavior, was now very satisfied with the results of the project: "This feels... good. I hope the warriors you found can also provide a good fight tomorrow."

"I'm telling you, this five-on-five is just a friendly sparring match between friends, so don't go too far!" Hana was a bit of a headache. It was easy to talk to others, but it was the most difficult for Jack to control his strength. She might have to take action herself. She didn't want to call her friend over for fun only to have him get seriously injured.

Sure enough, Jack scoffed, "Not going all out? Ha, you're joking..."

"Ugh, my head hurts." Later, on the way home, Hana rubbed her forehead and sent a group text message.

Yes, Kanon hadn't decided who to call in, so she sent a mass text message... She knew many martial artists, but not all of them were as friendly as sworn brothers. Some people didn't get along with Kanon's personality, like Mikage Zero, while others were naturally aloof and not good with words, like Kanou Aki. Kanon wasn't friends with them on social media, nor had she exchanged phone numbers with them. Although they were strong, she couldn't get them to fight.

Moreover, the battle is tomorrow, and it's limited to martial artists currently in Tokyo. Even someone like Mutaba, who could be bribed even with limited connections, couldn't make it in a day. The same applies to those who have gone overseas to train;

However, Tokyo is a vast city full of hidden talents, and even with these restrictions, Kanon quickly received a lot of replies.

[Interesting! I'm really interested! Was this why you asked Agua to do satellite positioning before, Hanon?]

[Sorry, the alliance is having a parade these days, and Master Guan Lin and I can't get away.]

[Oh, Hanane, are you thinking of Uncle Murobuchi? Even though I'm not in the best physical condition, I can do it, choose me.]

[Senior Jinlongshan mentioned these people to me! I'm really looking forward to fighting them.]

I'm very interested in that guy named Jack~

[good.]

[Is Oliva not participating in the war?]

[Young Miss, where will the fight be held tomorrow?]

[good.]

[Hehe, okay, I was just getting bored during summer vacation.]

[No, no, I still need to write my novel.]

[Oh dear, it's rare for Miss Hanon to ask me for a favor. I will certainly do my best. Also, Himuro said he can do it.]

[Damn it, I really want to participate! But I have another Ultimate Fighting match tomorrow, the timing is inconvenient, could it be postponed for a day?]

[That Jack... um, I kind of want to fight him, but I'm also a little scared. Those four are all incredibly strong; I'm afraid I wouldn't be a match for them.]

[I've stopped fighting and killing. I heard they're all on Hanayama Kaoru's level... Never mind.]

[I'm free! I'm free! My fists are itching for action!]

Some people were unable to come, while others volunteered to fight. Kanon's selection range was actually quite wide... By the second night, the underground arena of Tokyo Dome welcomed a group of spectators and ten highly skilled martial artists.

Author's Note: I woke up late today, so the novel is a bit late too. Also, it took me quite a while to decide who to send out. Um, Hanon's team won't be sending an all-star lineup. The reason is, as mentioned in the main text, characters like Kiba are just too strong; they can't be summoned easily. Also, some of these replies have obvious hints, while others are still unclear. I'll leave that as a mystery in the next chapter.

Section 642, Chapter 635: The Most Reliable First Man

Back in the familiar Tokyo underground arena, Koyo expertly made her way to the owner's lounge in a few turns.

"Mr. Tokugawa, I've brought the medicine... You need to control yourself. Staying in a state of excitement for too long will take a toll on your heart."

Tokugawa Mitsunari clenched his fists, his whole body trembling, and after a long while, he slowly exhaled: "Ugh... I know this is not good, but how can I control this situation!"

Ye Huayin suddenly called to announce the "Battle for Sikorsky," and the lineups of both sides were astonishing. Last night, after hanging up the phone, Tokugawa Mitsunari was so enraged that he almost died.

Sigh, planting a Sikorsky a week ago and reaping a top ten battle a week later, isn't that heavenly for Tokugawa Mitsunari?

"Quick, the match is about to begin." Tokugawa Mitsunari drank the potion, feeling instantly refreshed, and then jogged towards the arena. Although tonight's match wasn't exactly a grand affair, since Kanon's teammates were all Kengan Association fighters, it could be seen as a clash between the Kengan Association and Tokugawa in the arena, and he didn't want to miss a single second.

"I never expected, I never expected that Miss Hanon's connections would be so extensive, that my dream has actually come true! Hahaha..." Tokugawa Mitsunari's laughter echoed through the backstage corridor.

"I never expected her to have such a wide network of connections." This sentiment also existed among the "Baki Team." Whether it was the Hanma brothers, Retsu Kaioh, or Katsumi Guji, they were all shocked by the helpers that Kanon had found—they only saw a group of obviously strong warriors gathered in the rest room, and they couldn't say which four people besides Kanon would actually fight!
