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

Kanon charged at Musashi again, this time unleashing a fierce attack using the "Unpredictable Transformation" technique, much faster than usual. By the time people could see Kanon's figure clearly, she was already beside Musashi, extending her arm to strike... "Snap!" A crisp sound of muscle striking rang out simultaneously, confusing everyone's senses. Kanon's punch hadn't even landed yet!

Musashi was also startled by the sharp sound, wondering if he had been hit by Kanon's unexpected move without realizing it. He instinctively dodged in the opposite direction of the sound, but this dodge just caused him to run into the attack range of Kanon's fist—"Bang!"

The muffled thud meant that Kanon had landed a solid blow. Musashi coughed up blood and retreated quickly. Kanon naturally launched a pursuit, and with the "Unpredictable Illusion" attack, a new strange sound followed.

“I see.” Retsukai tapped his hands together. “It’s a noise tactic derived from ‘Air Path,’ which we used before in the battle against Pike.” He recalled Kanon’s classic move. “I suppose we’ll have that double-force punch technique next.”

Just as Retsukai said, one trick is not enough to last. Hanon used those realistic strange noises to make Musashi flustered, but she did not get carried away with this advantage. She quickly turned to another derivative application of "emptiness". She threw a punch, her arm struck to the right, but her palm sent out a force to the left. Although the power was much smaller, it would still be deadly if it hit a vital spot like the chin.

Samurai in Miyamoto Musashi's time relied on weapons for combat, and their research on unarmed combat techniques was far inferior to that of modern martial artists. Fist techniques were not Musashi's forte, let alone attacks like Kanon, which were completely new to him and he had no idea how to deal with them.

For a moment, Musashi was relentlessly suppressed by Kanon, retreating all the way. He dared not even let his two swords stray far from his torso, and could only sway around his body, relying on the blades to protect his vitals... Kanon had a huge advantage!

"That's awesome!" Retsukai-oh slapped his thigh excitedly. "As expected of Ye Haihuang, he was able to suppress Miyamoto Musashi all the way."

"Haha, what nonsense are you talking about, Lie Haiwang? Of course, the Sea Emperor of our Chinese Martial Arts Province can defeat the swordsman of Japan." Next to Lie Haiwang was Mao Haiwang, the Hebei Shourouquan. Although he could not be considered a top-tier expert on a global scale, he had a good temper. At this moment, he was cheering for Huayin with a flushed face, as happy as a child weighing over 200 pounds.

Only Guo Haihuang gently shook his head: "It's not time to celebrate yet. You guys are so naive..."

As expected, the old man had seen it all and was very experienced, making him calmer in the face of various situations that arose during the battle. While Guo Haihuang was speaking out against the dangers of a prosperous era, Wu Lei'an, who was gathered on the stands with the Wu clan, also felt that Hua Yin was in the game and curled his lip, saying, "Tch, what Miyamoto Musashi? He's just someone who gets chased and beaten up, not even as good as me." But he was immediately dissed again by Old Master Wu.

"You?" Old Master Wu sneered, "If it were you, you would probably have already lost."

When he turned back to the ring, his expression became solemn again: "Victory and defeat are unpredictable. The biggest worry is that advantages cannot be converted into victories. Once a loss is made, the balance of power will be reversed."

"What are you saying?" ×2, this question was asked by both Wu Lei'an and Lie Haiwang at the same time, and Guo Haihuang and Old Master Wu gave similar answers.

Guo Haihuang said, "Have you noticed that Hanon's ability to suppress Musashi isn't due to speed or strength, but mainly to the novelty of her moves? While Musashi can only parry, he maintains his balance, neither collapsing nor losing his composure due to Hanon's ever-changing and unpredictable attacks. Musashi is truly terrifying; no wonder he was a sword saint who dominated Japan hundreds of years ago. His combat experience is incredibly rich, and his resilience is extremely strong. If he adapts to Hanon's attacks and launches a counterattack..."

"...My opponent's speed and strength are no less than mine, and he is also known for his skill, nicknamed 'Sword Saint.' Although he was temporarily countered by unfamiliar techniques, I believe he can counter them once he understands our fundamentals... Meanwhile, we have already pushed our 'Liberation' state to its limit. Lei An, what do you think will happen if things continue like this?" Old Master Wu said.

"Hiss—" Reminded by Old Master Wu, Wu Lei'an couldn't help but gasp. Their Wu clan had been passed down for over a thousand years and possessed countless wondrous martial arts techniques. However, their trump card was still "Liberation." If "Liberation" improved their physical abilities but still couldn't secure victory, then defeat was often imminent.

Now Kanon is in the same situation. Although she is suppressing Musashi, she can't really defeat him. If this situation continues for ten or twenty minutes, Kanon is sure to break Musashi's defense. But the problem is that Musashi's greatest love in life is killing people. How could he be willing to be suppressed by Kanon for a long time?

"Whoosh—" Suddenly, a dull thud of a blunt weapon whistling through the air rang out. Musashi's "Nameless Golden Heavy" had finally found an opportunity to strike. The sword was incredibly heavy, and Hanon quickly dodged. At the same time, she kept a close eye on Musashi, remembering that he was a dual-wielder, and kept a close watch on the movement of the "Great Prajna Long Light".

Indeed! Musashi's "Nameless Golden Heavy" strike, though heavy, is not fast enough; it's just a feint. His truly swift killing move is the silent "Great Prajna Long Light."

"Good timing! I was already here... Huh!" Now it was Kanon's turn to be surprised. She realized that Musashi's thrust was positioned too perfectly, right at the center of her body, the most difficult part of the human body to avoid. Moreover, the speed of this sword strike far exceeded anything she had seen before, faster than any sword strike Kanon had ever seen Musashi use. Just as Musashi was taken aback by the incredible speed of "Unpredictable Transformation" in "Valkyrie Mode," Kanon was also thrown into disarray by Musashi's sudden thrust!

Was Musashi's sword really that fast? Well, actually, this sword wasn't so fast that it couldn't be dodged, but given Kanon and Musashi's current positions, the only way for Kanon to dodge was to deliberately run into "Nameless Golden Heavy"...

Therefore, Musashi's attack is not only fast, but also skillful. He sets up a trap with his twin swords, and this trap is very fierce, forcing Kanon to face a difficult choice: whether to be stabbed by a thrust or hit by a blunt object.

Blood dripped down, and Hanon bled for the first time since the start of the battle. She finally chose to thrust—not to meet the attack head-on, but to twist her waist and turn her body to minimize the depth of the stab, and then use the rebound force to jump far away.

"Phew—" The two figures separated, and Musashi breathed a sigh of relief. That made sense, after all, he had been suppressed by Kanon for a long time and had been beaten quite a bit, even spitting out blood two or three times!

After catching his breath, Musashi seemed to be in good spirits and looked at Kanon with interest: "You put a protective gear on your abdomen? That doesn't feel like it's being pierced."

"Who are you trying to insult?" Huayin rolled her eyes, gently lifted her clothes, and saw that her slender and beautiful waist was tightly wrapped with several bandages, with blood seeping from her side abdomen.

Wearing full armor was incredibly cumbersome, and to defeat Musashi, one had to rely on offense, not defense. Today, Kanon was still only wearing a special chest binder to prevent any wardrobe malfunctions. As for the bandage on her abdomen, Musashi had stabbed her there before, so it needed bandaging.

On the stands, Kizaki, one of the underlings, glanced at his boss, Kaoru Hanayama, and smiled knowingly: "Big Sister Hanayama has learned all the tricks of the yakuza!"

"She was the world's number one yakuza." Kaoru Hanayama looked at Hanon, her words tinged with pride.

So, I wanted to share a little story with you all today. This afternoon, I roasted two sweet potatoes, and when I took them out, I burned my arm... *cough* That's not the point. The point is, when I opened the sweet potatoes, I was quite surprised to find that they were white inside. I thought they should be sweet potatoes. Considering my lack of physical labor and knowledge of grains, I figured these were probably just white potatoes, right? In ancient times, "white potato" was used to describe scholars who failed the imperial examinations. The TV series "The Eloquent Ji Xiaolan" even used this phrase in a dialogue: "The scholar is a white potato." Having bought two white potatoes while shopping, I suddenly felt a bit like those two sweet potatoes.

Section 866, Chapter 857: Mountains of Knives and Seas of Swords, Waves of Blood

Leaving aside the gangsters reminiscing about Kanon's glorious "BIG" Grand Prix victory in the stands, Musashi in the ring had caught his breath, spread his arms wide again, and separated his two swords: "Little girl, come, try my twin swords!"

This is an old line, but the situation is very different now. This time, there are no intruding family members of the victims, and Kanon's offensive has eased. Musashi's "Niten Ichi-ryu" can be fully utilized, and the power of this strike has increased many times over.

No, it's actually two strikes, because it's a dual-sword style, and every attack Musashi makes is a combined slash from both swords!

As usual, Musashi launched himself forward after his legs gave way, his arms wielding the blade with fluid grace as he slashed at Kanon. But facing his attack, Kanon chose… “Unpredictable Transformation” to retreat swiftly!

As long as I run fast enough, you can't catch me, right?

Musashi's sword missed its mark. The laws of physics are the laws of physics. No matter how strong Musashi's slash is, he can't just drop his sword into thin air when he can't outrun Kanon.

And so a strange scene unfolded. The situation changed from Kanon chasing Musashi to Musashi chasing Kanon, completely reversing the balance of power. However, compared to the previous scene where Kanon chased and beat Musashi until he vomited blood, Kanon's retreat speed was even faster this time. Musashi's longsword could not reach Kanon, and he could only keep chasing her and running for his life.

This scene is not very pleasant to watch.

"Ye Huayin is so cowardly, Boo! Boo!" Some people were jeering, but they were only a small minority. Huayin had quite a lot of fans now, including some old fans who had followed her since the final elimination tournament: "Hey, how wonderful was Miss Huayin's 'hunt' of Wu Lei'an back then? This is a victory of tactics. Musashi deserved it for not being able to catch up!"

Amidst the enthusiastic discussion of the audience, the two ran for a while, but seeing that they couldn't catch up with Hanon, Musashi sheathed his sword with a "whoosh." He even scolded, "Little girl, it's no fun if you keep running."

“Heh, that’s true.” Kanon stopped in her tracks as well. She reached up and touched her waist, where Musashi had stabbed her, and more blood was seeping from the wound. “Looks like we can’t afford to delay any longer…”

Taking a deep breath, Hanon struck a "forefeather" pose.

"This shouldn't be!" Katsumi Oji frowned. "Running away is shameful but useful. If retreating all the way can wear down Musashi's stamina, why not do it?"

On the other side, Lie Haiwang nodded in approval of Huayin: "The dignified Sea Emperor of the Martial Arts Province must fight head-on. Ye Haiwang's choice is reasonable."

Well, Japanese warriors who uphold the Bushido code advocate retreat, while Chinese martial artists with their Thirty-Six Stratagems prefer head-on confrontation. Katsumi and Retsu Kaioh are quite an unexpected pairing...

However, their claims were denied by the elders around them, and both Yudi Dubu and Guo Haihuang shook their heads.

Mr. Shibukawa also explained to Adam: "Musashi can't catch up with Kanon. If she keeps retreating, this battle will become a long-distance race! Of course, it's fine to race, but Musashi's stamina is far from exhausted. On the other hand, Kanon is in a 'Valkyrie mode' that hurts her body. Her endurance may not be better than Musashi's, especially since she has been bleeding from her waist. Right now, it doesn't look like she has much blood, but as time goes on, she may bleed to death before Musashi catches up with her."

That's the logic. Facing Musashi's sword, Kanon can retreat for a while, but she can't retreat for the whole time. If she runs out of energy and is not as strong as Musashi in the end, wouldn't she be at his mercy?

Since the "goal" has already been achieved, the next step is to defeat Musashi and even complete the "kill" in the preview. Kanon must always fight Musashi head-on.

Her heart rate jumped to another level as the "Ultimate Valkyrie" who had defeated Pike descended upon her.

Come.jpg

Look! Here it comes again! Musashi's slash!

Kanon's "Front Feather" stance is more defensive and counter-attacking, lacking both agility and offensiveness. She can only try to receive or dodge Musashi's slashes before counter-attacking. Let's see if Kanon's ultimate defensive technique, "Lihentian," can withstand Miyamoto Musashi's attack when she goes all out!

can!

...able to block a sword.

In short, "Lihentian" is the ultimate manipulation of muscles. With the god-like motor skills brought about by Kanon's full-force heart pumping, her muscles instantly form a small but dense "Thunderbolt Formation," undoubtedly the strongest defense in the world. However, in martial arts, attack is always more powerful than defense. There is no unbreakable defense, only an invincible attack. Miyamoto Musashi's attack is the pinnacle of this! He slashed at Kanon's shoulder, but "Lihentian" neutralized all the force, rendering it completely ineffective. Immediately afterward, Musashi's other sword swept across the midline of Kanon's body, creating several subtle ripples along the way, bypassing all of Kanon's available muscles. Like a master butcher dissecting an ox, it slashed a bloody gash between Kanon's chest and abdomen!

"Ah!" Blood splattered, and the audience had barely opened their mouths in shock when Musashi's second wave of attack arrived.

After being injured, Hanon naturally retreated. Musashi's twin swords came slashing down, and she still used "Lihentian" to block, managing to deflect the first strike, but the second strike cut her shoulder again. "Pfft!"

Miyamoto Musashi's gaze—no, his eyesight—was terrifying! Just looking at his eyes, he seemed blank, dazed, and intensely focused on Kanon. But his eyesight… was practically divine! He could see every muscle movement in Kanon's body clearly. The moment Kanon activated her "Lihentian" technique, some muscles in other parts of her body would be drawn away, creating weak points, which Musashi could pinpoint and attack.

Fortunately, Kanon's muscle manipulation was also highly skilled. When he drew muscles from other parts of his body, he didn't do it in large chunks. Musashi's attacking parts all had some strong muscles remaining, which limited the effectiveness of his slashes. At least he couldn't kill Kanon with one blow.

Alright, since a single blow won't kill, then a second blow, a third blow, another strike, and another, and another, and another...

Musashi was overjoyed when facing Pike; his greatest desire in life was to have an opponent who could withstand his attacks indefinitely. Despite her small stature, Kanon was far more resilient than Pike, and when her blood splattered on Musashi's face, it propelled him into his peak condition!

At this moment, he was no longer "Niten Ichiryu" (a style of martial arts), but rather a sky and sea made of swords and spears, with surging winds and waves pressing down on Huayin, determined to crush and drown her!

For a time, Hanon was caught in a sea of ​​swords and knives, and wounds kept appearing on her body. Sometimes her "Lihentian" could withstand Musashi's attacks, but she was still suppressed by Musashi's heavy blows and lost her balance. She could not adjust her body and could only continue to endure the next round of slashes, continuing to bleed and sweat.

From the moment Kanon gained the upper hand in her pursuit of Musashi until now, not much time has actually passed, but the situation has already reversed. Now it's Musashi's turn to have the advantage, and he has firmly turned it into a winning position.

Hey, Musashi didn't use any earth-shattering special moves, did he? He was just swinging his sword and slashing.

Cough cough, that was a real sword strike! Well, I'm not afraid of others wielding swords to strike Hanon, but Musashi is completely different. To be precise, Miyamoto Musashi didn't need any special techniques. He had reached a level where even grass, trees, and rocks could be used as swords. Every move he made was an extraordinary display of martial arts. He was far more skilled than anyone else, possessing a unique and powerful style. His movements were fluid and unpredictable, yet powerful and unpredictable. He could move with incredible speed and precision, like a sword that could be drawn from any tree or stone. His skill was unparalleled, his power unmatched.

"How cruel..." the audience exclaimed.

"How cruel..." the martial artists exclaimed.

"How cruel..." Even Guo Haihuang, Shechuan Gangqi, Yuji Dubu, and others were moved by the cruelty of the situation.

As the sun set, both the king and the farmer sighed in unison at the Ba Bridge farewell, but the tears of the old and the young carried different weights. Others lamented the cruelty of the battle, merely watching Hanon bleed and regretting that this peerless genius could not ultimately defeat the ancient swordsman Miyamoto Musashi, and that the beautiful woman was about to be swept away by the wind and rain. But the grandmasters' lament lay in the fact that Miyamoto Musashi was such a terrifying figure, and that fighting him was inherently a cruel affair.

Musashi is extremely strong, that's true, but Kanon is also extremely strong! There's also Yujiro Hanma, Piccolo, Gensai Kuroki, and Kaiou Kuroki... There are powerful martial artists in modern times too, but Musashi is different from them—he is a swordsman, wielding a sharp blade. Unlike unarmed combat, his attacks are more decisive and fierce, and those struck are either killed or seriously injured. In comparison, modern martial arts, which are mainly unarmed combat, are a very gentle and even benevolent existence.

"Martial artists who fight Musashi will eventually find themselves in this predicament. No matter how many benefits they gain from him beforehand, if they cannot kill him in one blow, then once Musashi strikes them, their condition will be greatly reduced, becoming weaker and weaker, until they are eventually pursued and killed by Musashi, constantly losing blood, getting injured, and dying. It's too cruel..." On the stands, Guo Haihuang's palms were sweaty as he nervously rubbed them together: "After Hanon's suppression tactics failed, she was also forced to take this path... Damn it, I can't think of a way to break this deadlock."

After a while, seeing that Hanon's wounds were increasing, the former Sea Emperor of the Martial Arts Province made a difficult decision: "Admit defeat! Even if we don't, it's a dead end. My Chinese Martial Arts Province is still outmatched by this Japanese samurai. It's better to admit defeat and save our lives. With Hanon's talent, she will surely overcome her inner demons of defeat in a few years and become stronger, so that she can take revenge on Musashi!"

Alas, compared to Tokugawa Mitsunari, who instigated martial artists to fight and even die, Guo Haihuang was far less "despicable." His affection for Hanon quickly overcame the pride of the Martial Arts Ministry, and he abruptly stood up, shouting towards the arena: "Admit defeat! Hanon, admit defeat!"

"Admit defeat? No need." Guo Haihuang's shout reached the arena, but Miyamoto Musashi responded. He kept wielding his swords and smiled nonchalantly: "I have already made seventeen cuts. One more strike and I can probably end this battle—by killing this little girl."

There's no mercy for women here; the deadly sword from the Miyamoto Musashi trailer has come down!

Opposite him, Kanon had already fallen into a state of blurred consciousness due to pain and bleeding... or so?

It was all just an illusion. Huayin's mind was clear, and amidst the blood-red light, her eyes suddenly shone: "We've waited for this!"

Author's Note: Thank you all for waiting... An abrupt ending isn't ideal, so it seems I'll have to wait another chapter to finish... for now...

Section 867, Chapter 858: He's anxious, he's anxious, he's getting anxious.

"Hiccup, good wine, good wine! Ah Liao, right? It's so enjoyable drinking with you..."

"Did you know? There's a huge laboratory in the basement of Tokyo Skytree. That's where I work."

"That underground lab, they conduct research that can't be brought to the light of day, basically challenging the gods! Hey, don't laugh, that's exactly what we do—create humans! Okay, actually, it's cloning, which violates scientific ethics. If you're discovered, you can't work in the industry anymore... hiccup, am I drunk... telling you all this to my drinking buddy whom I just bumped into..."

"What? You want to buy my information? Who...who exactly are you? Damn it, what do you take me for..."

"Damn it, damn it, damn it... You gave me way too much money!"

"...Alright, there's just too much money, so I'll tell you for the sake of the money: that laboratory already has a finished product, and it's by a very famous historical figure. Guess who? Miyamoto Musashi! Were you surprised? Huh? You knew that?"

"You're asking about the specifics? Heh, it's just that we extracted suitable tissue from Musashi's spine and cultured it. Do you really want to hear all that complicated scientific data?"
