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

The instant Baki was about to attack, Kanon also anticipated his intention and retreated almost simultaneously with "Unpredictable Transformation," a speed that was equally difficult for the naked eye to perceive!

Of course, Baki's sprint is faster. His physical abilities surpass those of Kanon in this world, and the principle behind his "Cockroach Sprint" is also very profound, allowing him to run at superhuman speed.

So in the end, Baki still managed to hit Kanon.

However, the condition for Kanon to be severely injured is to "stand still". Since she had already started to retreat and was moving very fast, when Baki hit her, the relative speed between the two was not very high. It was equivalent to Baki's ordinary heavy punch hitting Kanon's body in her "Raibe" state - the effect was limited.

The force of Baki's heavy punch caused Kanon to retreat rapidly, even losing her footing. She could only resort to a series of light-body techniques to dodge and deflect the force, such as backflips, back rolls, light skimming, and three quick movements... In the end, she still landed on her butt. 23333

But before Baki could give chase—and he didn't have time to—the distance between the two had already widened after Kanon's series of maneuvers. Kanon had just sat down when she braced herself with one hand on the ground and did a backflip, turning into a handstand, still maintaining her defense against Baki.

With a successful defense, Kanon remained impenetrable.

"Tsk, it didn't work..." Baki gritted his teeth. He had high hopes for "Cockroach Dash" and regarded it as one of his trump cards against Yujiro. He never expected that before he even saw his father, it would be broken by this strange girl.

For a moment, Baki felt a pang of bitterness: "Could it be that I'm really still far from good enough?"

In this timeline, Baki is undoubtedly a first-rate powerhouse, perhaps even surpassing first-rate; he's among the very elite, only slightly inferior to "strongest" like Yujiro Hanma. It's not that Baki is weak; his self-doubt stems from intuition and subconscious refusal to acknowledge that Kanon is comparable to Yujiro…

Even when she encountered the "Cockroach Charge" for the first time, Hanon was still able to break it on the spot. In terms of strength, experience, knowledge, and adaptability, she had reached the pinnacle of martial arts.

The saying goes, "From small things one can know great things." From a single "cockroach dash," Kanon can glean a lot: Baki's level of exhaustion before launching his charge is close to or even surpasses that of ordinary "attack and defense." It's hard to judge how much he has mastered it compared to Guo Haihuang, but it might be even better than Kanon's level.

The perfect release and tension resulted in super-fast speed, even faster than Kanon's normal "Unpredictable Transformation"! However... it is still not as swift as "Supersonic Punch".

"Cockroach Dash" has a speed of about 250-300 kilometers per hour, while "Supersonic Punch" can break the sound barrier, reaching a speed of 1224 kilometers per hour! The difference between the two is so large because "Cockroach Dash" requires Baki to move his whole body, while "Supersonic Punch" only involves swinging his arms in place, so they cannot be compared.

In other words, the "Supersonic Punch" becomes ineffective against opponents who are too far away, while the "Cockroach Dash" is a more aggressive and direct move that actively seeks out enemies.

Then Huayin slightly propped herself up with her arms, straightened her body, and said, "You and your father look very alike."

Indeed, the "Cockroach Dash" style, with its straightforward and wild attacks, is very much like Yujiro Hanma's style.

"I can almost foresee the scene of your father-son battle," Hanon said. "It's a turn-based fight where you hit me a few times, I hit you a few times, and it's all bloody and brutal. If you can keep up with your fighting spirit and skills, it will probably end up being a cruel but glorious brawl."

It seems that this makes sense. After hearing Kanon's words, Baki's face showed a look of longing, and he obviously agreed with Kanon's description.

However, Hanon immediately poured cold water on his enthusiasm: "Well... isn't that pretty boring?"

"what?"

“I know you may have many complicated feelings about your father, but the fact is you are becoming more and more like him. Strength, style, and that ‘ghost back’... You are following the path of Yujiro Hanma. Even if you eventually catch up with him and surpass him, you will only be creating another Yujiro Hanma. Just like a school of thought is passed from teacher to student, and then from student to generation. The inheritance itself is a good thing, but when this school of thought always dominates the academic world and one school is the only one, wouldn’t it become a one-man show where everyone is silenced?”

Hanon's aura began to rise: "I don't object to you father and son having one, two, or three fights; that's your family matter. But as long as Hanma Yujiro still holds the title of 'World's Strongest Creature,' other styles of martial artists always have priority when it comes to challenging him—like me."

"What exactly do you want to say?" Baki's words were drawn out, clearly suppressing his boundless rage.

But Kanon didn't care about that. She smiled slightly and said, "I just want to tell you that I will be the one fighting Hanma Yujiro tonight, not you."

"Boom—" In reality, no such sound was made, but all the creatures near Baki's house did perceive such a loud noise.

That was Baki's rage; it had completely exploded.

There were few people and animals or insects near Baki's house. Only the real Kanon from this timeline was floating high in the air in spirit form, watching the battle from above.

"Oh dear, she's really good at trash talk. I didn't even realize it before. I thought I was the one being more sarcastic." The spirit Kanon scratched her face—it seems that Kanon has quite a knack for making sarcastic remarks in every timeline! The spirit Kanon then looked at Baki: "How will this boy respond next?"

Hmm, Baki's response was to assume a forward lunge, lower his body, and raise both arms in front of him...

"Oh, it's a Triceratops!" the spirit Hana recognized it.

Author's Note: Sorry, only two updates today. I'm just the king of procrastination, Mug...

Section 925, Chapter 916: A Swift Victory

“A fantastic example of the art of boxing.”

Even the spirit form Kanon could see it, so the real Kanon was naturally no match for it either. This move wasn't anything special; it was powerful, but it was still the simple and brutal fighting style that the Hanma father and son were used to.

Baki simulated a colossal beast that existed only in the ancient prehistoric era, a Triceratops capable of rivaling a Tyrannosaurus Rex. His slender body, weighing less than seventy kilograms, now appeared broad and heavy, poised to strike, as if it were about to charge with the force of Mount Tai and the North Sea, destroying anything that dared to stand in its way.

"...How is it?" Baki responded to Kanon, "This is something I brought back from a very far place. It fully displays the will, weight, and killing intent contained in this posture...How is it?"

"Oh, you're quite imposing." Hanon didn't rush to reply to Baki. She felt that Baki's temperament was completely different from before, becoming colder and sharper. It was as if a "second transformation" similar to "Oni-sei" was also happening in his mind. It was "Oni-sei"!

Hanon had no doubt about its power.

But Kanon wasn't afraid of him.

Even when Baki was clearly transforming again and again, going all out, Kanon still confidently looked down on him and calmly asked, "You fought with Pikachu, right? What happened?"

The question came as abruptly, but Baki answered as usual, "It's a matter of each having their own strengths."

"Hmm, so it's a draw... Then, did Katsumi Kuji face Pike? What was the result?"

"Yes, Brother Keji's performance won a standing ovation. Although he failed to defeat Pike, his 'supersonic punch', delivered at the cost of sacrificing an arm, caused great damage to Pike, leaving the 55,000 martial artists present deeply impressed."

“I see. It seems that Katsumi is indeed destined to be associated with the ‘Supersonic Fist’ technique. But if I hadn’t poured that bucket of water on him, he definitely would have lost his arm. That’s just fate.”

This time, Baki was a little confused. What was that rambling girl saying? Was it destiny?

"Oh, don't worry about it, it's just a little reflection on life." Hanon quickly came back to her senses, or rather, she was never distracted. She stood naturally, not in a fighting stance, but her aura, posture, and muscles were already ready for battle at any moment.

Kanon gently nodded to Baki: "I'm fine now, come on, boy."

Without saying another word, Baki unleashed his "Triceratops Fist".

"I've fought Pike before, and I won. I won with ease." Kanon rambled on a bit, but Baki was too busy charging to hear her. However, Kanon wasn't saying it to him; she was just stating a fact: "And right now, I'm even stronger than when I fought Pike."

As she spoke, facing Baki's attack, Kanon did not dodge or retreat. Instead, with the spirit of "sacrificing herself to create momentum," she took a step forward and unleashed a "supersonic punch."

While called "Triceratops Fist," Baki simply charges forward with all his might, seemingly lacking any technical skill... Well, that's just how it appears. "Triceratops Fist" is actually quite complex; it represents the sum of Baki Hanma's years of training, accumulated technique, experience, and spirit. It's just that, due to the Hanma family's habitually brutal style, it's presented in a very straightforward way. Its true attack range is extremely wide, making it incredibly difficult for the target to dodge.

Hanon dislikes watching two members of the Fanma family vie for the so-called "strongest" title, but she quite enjoys facing a single member of the Fanma family.

Because it doesn't require too many twists and turns, or too much brainpower, just do it! Ahem, to be more elegant, it should be called a "straight-through duel".

So, the result of the duel was...

A deafening roar, like thunder, followed by a series of impacts. People were thrown through the air, crashing through numerous obstacles in their path: "Rumble rumble rumble..."

"Oh dear, this is so reckless!" High in the sky, the spirit Kanon rubbed her forehead—it seems that Kanon in every timeline quite likes this gesture!

Then the spirit Huayinfei lowered her head and complained, "That's my body. If you use it like this, it will be very troublesome to repair."

"Don't worry, there aren't many enemies this strong anyway," Hana said reassuringly.

That's right, after the collision, the one still standing was Kanon.

In terms of sheer power and ferocity, the "Supersonic Punch" is always superior; you can tell just by looking at the speed of the punch. However, Hanon's punch wasn't just a simple swing; the beauty of this punch lies not in the release, but in the retraction.

The clash between "Triceratops Fist" and "Supersonic Fist" is no longer a question of who is more powerful or faster. The forces are mutual, and both Baki and Kanon experienced double the recoil. This exchange is more of a test of their self-protection, whether they can take care of their defense while launching a full-force attack.

Therefore, in this attack, what truly showcased Kanon's exceptional skill wasn't the power of her "Supersonic Fist"—even with Kanon's physique in this world, she couldn't match the attack power of her original body before her transmigration—but rather the ability to simultaneously unleash a powerful attack and execute "Raibu," perfectly controlling her body's center of gravity, balance, and force dissipation. Like Baki's "Triceratops Fist," it wasn't as simple as it appeared; within a mere second, countless micro-managements were condensed, incomprehensible and unlearnable to others.

As we've always said, Kanon is now a true grandmaster, no longer a naive young man who simply relies on physical talent to fight.

"Martial arts are so much fun, I'm tempted to learn them myself~" The spirit Huayin had extremely strong observation skills, and she fully understood how many incredible changes Huayin had just made by controlling her body.

Kanon shrugged at this: "If you want to learn, just go find Uncle Kuroki. He's a good teacher."

"Tch, I thought you'd say, 'Want to learn? I'll teach you!'"

"I don't have that much time." Kanon rolled her eyes. "Besides, this attack has taken a lot of my energy. I need to have a good meal before my duel with Hanma Yujiro."

Yes, after defeating her son, there's also her father. Hanma Yujiro is Kanon's real target... after defeating Baki.

Baki? He hasn't fallen yet.

"Huh?" The spirit Hanon exclaimed in surprise, gently floating into the sky. Others could not see her, but she could sense others. Just now, she clearly caught Baki's rapid heartbeat.

It's not that Baki can "borrow," "unleash," or enter "Valkyrie Mode." He simply hasn't given up his fighting spirit, struggling to his feet from the ruins, coughing up blood as he vomits: "Ugh—"

Despite coughing up blood, Baki's eyes burned like flames as he stared intently at Kanon.

He can still fight!

"Sigh, that's it. It's the foundation of turning the fighting into a turn-based system, and the extraordinary resilience of the Hanma family bloodline." Hanon shook her head. Whether it was Baki, Jack, or Yujiro, they were all tough guys with amazing defense and fighting spirit. She had already experienced them all back in the Tokyo Dome Underground Colosseum Tournament.

Even though Baki has used up all his powerful offensive moves, leaving only ordinary punches and kicks, which might be a threat to others but have no effect on Kanon, his willpower, which is like an invincible cheat code on defense, means this battle is still going to be fought!

Just like Kanon predicted the father-son battle between Yujiro and Baki, let's have a brutal yet glorious brawl.

Previously, Kanon said that the worst-case scenario for Baki tonight would be to defeat Kanon but be too exhausted, so that he and Yujiro would have to reschedule their fight. In fact, conversely, Kanon could not accept defeating Baki but paying a high price.

"I don't have that kind of time." Hanon took a deep breath, not activating "Valkyrie Mode": "I don't want to expend too much energy here either. I need a quick victory, so let me finish you off with my strongest move!"

This move was Kanon's idea. Her intervention in the battle between the Hanma family father and son was largely to test its power. It seems that Baki will have to see it before Yujiro!

...Half a minute later, Baki fell to the ground.

Author's Note: The karmic entanglement with Baki is now over. Tomorrow, Kanon will fight the "Giant Fierce One"~ See you tomorrow.

Section 926, Chapter 917: Where are the peerless masters now?

Kaoru Hanayama is drinking at a bar in Shibuya.

Since Huayin visited once, a lot of his collection of fine wines has been ruined, but that's not why Huashan came out to drink; he's here to drink with a friend.

It wasn't some rare guest; it was Shiba Chiharu.

Chai Qianchun drank a glass of wine and put it down: "Is this alright, boss?"

"what's up?"

“Well, it’s about time, Baki and his father…” Shiba Chiharu hesitated, after all, Hanayama beside him was still unmoved and calm. With his boss like this, Shiba Chiharu, as a follower, could not say much.

Hua Shan finished his drink, then shook the remaining ice cubes: "Want to see? Someone else's father and son fighting?"

"No..." When questioned by his boss, Shiba Chiharu's first reaction was to deny it, but he couldn't bring himself to say something against his will. He really wanted to see Baki and Yujiro's duel!
