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

Jack swayed slightly and instantly appeared in front of Yingchu, kicking out a kick.

"Bang—" A muffled sound rang out, but it wasn't Jack's hit. Instead, Yingchu's other heel slammed into the ground, causing the explosives to detonate.

Amid the impact of the explosion, Yingchu moved quickly, flashing behind Jack and pointing a finger at the back of Jack's neck.

The cervical spine is also a vital point of the human body—it sounds like humans have so many vital points! This is one, that is another… That’s right, for martial artists, there are only so many vital points of the human body. Some can be fatal, some can lead to victory. In short, the more you understand the human body, the more you realize its fragility, its many weaknesses, and its many dangers. This is why attacking is always easier than defending in combat, and no one can defend forever.

Even among these many vital points, the cervical spine remains one of the most prominent. It is difficult to protect this area through muscle training, and being located at the back, it is not easy to defend against. Finally, the cervical spine, which is full of nerves, can cause great damage if it is hit even slightly.

Ying Chu aimed at Jack's Tianzhu acupoint. This touch would not be fatal, but it would be enough to sever a person's consciousness and officially end the battle.

Yingchu extended his right middle finger, not out of contempt for Jack, but because both of his index fingers were badly damaged. From the beginning, Yingchu's target in this battle was Jack Vanma. Knowing his opponent was a muscle monster, he modified his fingers, adding a small amount of explosives to enhance the power of his pressure point strikes. He had already used his index fingers to attack Jack's Futu acupoint on his thigh, so now he had to choose other fingers to fight.

"Thump—" Another muffled sound. Yingchu had indeed hit Jack's cervical spine, but what awaited him was not victory, but a huge rebound force that sent his thin body flying.

"Waaaaah!" Yingchu's body was already badly damaged and she couldn't adjust her posture in mid-air. She could only passively accept this fact and slid after falling to the ground, adding more bloodstains to her body.

Well, Yingchu doesn't feel pain anyway, so he's more concerned about Jack's condition: "He can train the muscles around his neck to this extent? That's amazing!"

Speaking of the previous elimination round, Yingchu used the same move to kill Bando, but Bando had superhuman flexibility. While a normal person's neck can only bend 50 degrees, he managed to bend it 140 degrees, breaking Yingchu's fingers in the process. Bando's talent is one in a million, something Jack doesn't possess, yet he was able to defend against and even knock Yingchu away simply by relying on muscle strength.

No wonder he's a muscle monster!

Jack's veins were bulging all over his body, but his muscles were atrophying and darkening, a sign that he was developing into "diamond muscles," which could be considered a kind of unconventional transformation.

Hanon frowned: "Jack... have you taken drugs again?"

Jack's transformation ended quickly, without the horrific scene of him kneeling and vomiting at the previous conference, and his muscles didn't completely atrophy into sticks. It seemed that, having learned from experience, Jack's body had found a better balance between survival and enhancement.

“Yes!” Jack grinned and pointed to his teeth. “Same as always, with a rope tied to my teeth.”

The commentator and the audience were stunned: "Wow, Jack... he actually openly admitted to taking performance-enhancing drugs..."

The referee in the arena was practically in tears. One fighter was using a weapon, the other was using performance-enhancing drugs—what was the point of his presence? This kind of awful match was torture for the referee! If he could, the referee really wanted to dedicate a song to them, "What Kind of Warriors Are You?"—no, "What Kind of Men Are You?"

But how could other people's opinions affect Jack? He only had eyes for Yingchu: "The medicine I prepared wasn't meant for you, Doctor... but you've successfully ignited my fighting spirit. Let's begin the third round."

“Jack, you’re a real gem!” Yingchu’s expression also turned slightly crazed. “Dr. Hao is right. You’re strong, persistent, knowledgeable about drugs, and unafraid of side effects. You’re the perfect research subject!”

"Whoosh—" The two bone swords in their hands were flicked out again, and Ying Chu also mustered up her last bit of strength: "The only way now is to increase the number of viruses in your body so that you will fall asleep as soon as possible."

The two sides began their final standoff.

"It seems the outcome is no longer in doubt," Lie Haiwang, who was watching the battle, immediately concluded.

He wasn't wrong, nor was he mistaken. Jack hadn't suffered any major injuries; his main hindrance was the physical decline caused by the virus, which had recovered somewhat after the performance-enhancing drugs took effect, making his charging speed quite swift. In contrast, Yingchu's mental state was no less than Jack's, and perhaps even more clear-headed and sharp. Unfortunately, his body couldn't support his mental state, and his charging speed was noticeably insufficient.

"Bang!" A loud impact rang out as the two martial artists collided, kicking up a cloud of dust. Within the dust, figures seemed to be moving about, indicating that the two were exchanging blows.

This battle finally started to resemble a duel between martial artists in the final moments.

When the smoke cleared, what people saw was Yingchu lying on the ground, with Jack straddling him. Yingchu's bone sword in his right hand had pierced Jack's right arm, and smoke was still rising from Yingchu's right elbow—clearly, this madman had also planted explosives in his elbow, otherwise, with his strength, he might not have been able to penetrate Jack's powerful muscles.

In the right arm duel, Yingchu had a slight advantage, but since the two arms were fixed together, this side could only be considered an exchange.

As for the clash on the left... Yingchu's left elbow was also covered in gunpowder. He also used explosives to propel himself, but his bone sword missed. Instead, Jack's steel teeth seized the opportunity and bit off a large chunk of flesh, rendering him immobile. He lay there bloodied and sprawling to the side.

In the battle of the left arm, Jack was the clear winner.

With his hands tied and legs pinned down by Jack, Yingchu's defeat was inevitable. As Jack raised his left fist and slammed it down on his head, Yingchu closed his eyes and thought, "Hey, I'm going to die now."

Of course, Hanon wouldn't let Yingchu die. She had already slipped away, so even if Jack could land a punch on Yingchu, he wouldn't be able to land a second punch, and it wouldn't be fatal.

Furthermore, Kanon also saw that Baki, who had come to the sidelines out of concern for Jack, was now lunging at Jack. He didn't want his brother to be killed, but he also didn't want to see his brother hurt others.

But neither Kanon nor Baki could stop Jack's first punch from landing.

"Boom!" Another small cloud of dust rose as Jack's fist slammed into the ground next to Yingchu's cheek.

"Huh?" Kanon and Baki stopped in shock. Eiichi also opened his eyes, somewhat surprised. For a moment, everyone's eyes were on Jack Vanma. Would he... be the one to show mercy?

Jack and Yingchu locked eyes, and there was a hint of tenderness in their gazes!

Gentle, gentle, gentle...

Hanon, who was very close to them, heard Jack say to Eicho in a daze, "Doctor, come with me!"

"What's going on?" Kanon was completely bewildered. Could it be that Jack is...?

“You lost, so dissecting me is out of the question,” Jack added. “But you can study me, provided you help me become stronger.”

Oh, it turns out Jack saw Yingchu's talent in body modification and medicine.

Hua Yin, whose mind was wandering, coughed twice, blushed, and went to face the wall.

Yingchu readily agreed to Jack's request: "Jack, I do!"

Well, although the dialogue was embarrassing, at least no one died in the battle between Yingchu and Jack. Taking Jack's victory as an opportunity, the two of them lived together peacefully. It's really a cause for celebration.

Baki Team 2:1 Kanon Team.

Author's note: I'm really not in good shape today, my mind isn't sharp, so I'll only post three chapters. I'll try to post five tomorrow... but I'm not very confident in myself, so I'll at least post four.

Here's a little preview: the person appearing in the fourth battle will be someone we haven't mentioned before. Since we haven't mentioned them before, there's no need for you to guess. We'll reveal it tomorrow.

Section 652, Chapter 645: The only thing that can replace a tiger is a lion.

The relationship between people is a wonderful thing. Sometimes, one second you are fighting to the death, and the next second you become best friends who can talk about anything. Just like Jack and Yingchu, one of them was poisoned by the other and became physically exhausted, and the other was beaten into a rag doll by the other. But in the end, the broken me saved the broken you. Jack helped Yingchu up, and the two supported each other as they walked off the field.

To this, Hanon could only sigh and say, "This is what it means to be a comrade with shared interests, no, shared goals."

Damn, looking at their backs, the commentators and audience members actually felt a little moved... Even though they had been embarrassed by the two drug addicts and weapon users all day, sparse applause rang out from the stands.

The first to react was Tokugawa Mitsunari. Having watched three matches, he was naturally happy and excited about the first two, but neither could compare to the excitement of this one: "Wow, is this what real combat looks like? It's so thrilling!"

Sigh, sometimes it really makes you wonder if Tokugawa Mitsunari simply enjoyed bloody scenes, rather than genuine martial arts sparring. Gaolang and Katsumi, Retsu Kaioh and Adam, all stopped short of serious skirmishes, each enhancing the other's skills. Only Jack and Eiichi fought a bloody and technically inept battle—that old bastard!

Of course, Tokugawa also had a pitiful side. Despite being obsessed with martial arts and leading the conflict between warriors and death row inmates, he couldn't be there to witness every battle. He could only wait for the warriors to recount the battles or have his subordinates "investigate and report back." It's not impossible to understand why he liked this battle.

Jack and Eiichi went to the infirmary, but Baki did not leave. Like Kanon, he was quite frightened by Jack and Eiichi's sudden separation and reunion. But after regaining his senses, Baki stood directly on the ring and refused to leave.

"Miss Ye," Baki said, stretching his limbs, "let's get started."

Hanon was taken aback: "Huh? Start what... Oh, it's time for the fourth round!"

That's why the fighter for the fourth match of the "Baki Team" is Baki himself, and he's holding back his anger to have a revenge match against Kanon!

Baki's logic is simple: with a score of 2:1, the "Kanon team" cannot afford to lose. Now that Baki has stepped up to challenge, it is difficult for anyone else to win. Only when Kanon herself goes on the field is the safest option.

Unfortunately, Baki overlooked one thing: apart from Kanon, no one in the "Kanon Team" could guarantee defeating Baki, but Kanon didn't necessarily have to pursue "certain victory".

Just as Katsumi didn't care about losing to Gaolang, Adam didn't care about losing to Retsu Kaioh, and Eiichiro and Jack were able to turn enemies into friends in the end, the primary purpose of this battle was actually to spar. "The Sikorsky Battle," ha, I'm afraid even Baki, who wants Sikorsky the most, has forgotten that this person exists!

"Um, let me think about it." Kanon abandoned Baki and turned back to the lounge.

Well, Hanon feels that the three members of the Fan family have already had enough. She beat them all up at the last tournament and they still haven't recovered.

Besides, Hanon still has people available.

"Little Flower Voice, Little Flower Voice, let me do it."

Sure enough, as soon as we got back to the backstage area, someone volunteered.

"Senior Jinlongshan praised Baki's skills, and I'd like to have a go at him!"

The one who sought battle was Ghost King Mountain Lord.

Emmm... Kanon doesn't really want to win, but he wouldn't deliberately seek defeat either. Kiohyama has improved a lot since last year's elimination tournament, but he is still quite far behind Baki.

Kanon didn't want to be too rude, but... "Please call out to Samurai Wakatsuki for me."

Baki Hanma is by no means weak; on the contrary, he is extremely strong. On the "Kanon Team's" side, the only one who can hold his own against him is the samurai Wakatsuki. Kanon has fought against both of them, and according to her estimation, the two are evenly matched, and there will definitely be a wonderful battle. However, Baki does possess the bloodline of the Hanma family, and once he unleashes his power, it won't be a 50/50 situation.

But Wakatsuki Samurai wasn't in the lounge; perhaps he'd gone to the restroom. Kanon waited for ages, but Wakatsuki Samurai didn't appear. She started to panic. Wakatsuki had seemed listless all night; had he suddenly decided he didn't want to fight anymore?

Several more minutes passed, and the staff had urged them repeatedly. Baki was getting impatient waiting on the arena outside. Just as Kanon was about to give up and prepare to go up and fight herself, Wakatsuki finally returned.

"Hey, let's get this!" Hana exclaimed excitedly in her dialect, "Mr. Wakatsuki, I'm begging you for this battle..."

“I won’t be playing in this battle.” Wakatsuki immediately shut down Kanon, but before Kanon could express her disappointment, he added, “Actually, a senior also came to the arena tonight. I just went to see him, and he wants to take my place.”

Oh? There's someone else who unexpectedly wandered in? Hanon scratched her head: "It's good that a martial arts senior is willing to help, but where is that senior now...?"

Before he finished speaking, a cheer came from the arena outside, and the "senior" walked directly into the ring.

Wakatsuki Samurai was embarrassed: "He's a very easygoing person. He just came to me to tell Miss Kanon that he's going to go on stage..."

A tall, imposing man with dyed blond hair and a beard, dressed in a karate uniform, stood proudly on the field. At first glance, it seemed as if this battle was still Wakatsuki Samurai's turn to fight.

However, this man's hairstyle and beard style were different from Wakatsuki's. He was similar in height to Wakatsuki, but slightly thinner. He was also older than the samurai Wakatsuki. Wakatsuki was already a forty-year-old man, while this man was probably close to fifty.

More importantly, this person's temperament was completely different from the humble and open-minded Wakatsuki. He had the eyes of a true predator, and he stood there with an imposing presence. Although his expression was calm and even somewhat relaxed, he exuded a compelling aura that Kanon could vaguely sense from the distance in the lounge.

As for Baki facing this person directly, the pressure is even greater—his father is Yujiro Hanma!

"The person before me may not be inferior to Yujiro!" That was Baki's judgment.

In the entrance tunnel for the "Baki" team, Katsumi Guji, who was resting, straightened his back and exclaimed, "It was him!"

In the "Kanon Team", Zong Longshen, Daimon Tohei, and Mabi Haku all knew this person.

“Zi'an…” “The Lion King!” “He’s actually here!” The three exchanged glances, and amidst their shock, they reached a consensus: “This is a sure thing.”

The commentator announced, "Unbelievable! Unbelievable! This man who just appeared is actually Shingoro Koyasu, the reigning champion of the Meido Karate Hall, who has been out of the public eye for years! Standing at 194 cm tall and weighing 132 kg, this 49-year-old man was once known as the 'Lion King' and was a strong contender for the strongest in the karate world. Now he has actually returned to the arena and stepped onto the ring! Wow... We are truly in for a treat today!"

Instead of the tiger, a lion took the stage.

Author's Note: This Koyasu is a character from Kengan Prequel: The Fist of the Way. He's at the pinnacle of combat power, perhaps even stronger than Kuroki...

Section 653, Chapter 646: Hexagonal Warrior vs. Hexagonal Warrior

Baki assumed a fighting stance against Shingoro Koyasu. Without saying much, the oppressive aura he exuded told him that the person before him was a formidable opponent, comparable only to Yujiro Hanma. Shingoro Koyasu was even more terrifying than Kanon from the previous tournament.

Of course, the aura of martial artists varies in strength. For example, Guo Haihuang may appear to be just a withered old man in a wheelchair at first glance, but Huayin has a good temper, a peaceful nature, and is beautiful, so people will always subconsciously underestimate her.
