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

"Another Yamashita?" Hana thought of Yamashita Kazuo's "Yamashita Trading", but now was not the time to delve into whether there was any connection between the two sides. Since the Wu clan was also a fighter hired to participate in the competition, it was not appropriate to reveal her true identity at this time.

"Let's just leave quietly..."

So when Garuda and his two companions finished speaking, they turned around and Hanon was gone.

"Oh no, where did my darling go?"

"Darling?" asked the short-haired man among Garuda's companions in surprise. "Garuda, are you in love?"

The other curly-haired man was more composed and observed his surroundings more carefully: "It was Suoh Seigetsu's men. They've already left. Garuda, does your 'darling' refer to the person who was standing with you just now? That foreign fighter named Flavor Sander?"

"So his name is Flavor Sander..." Garuda etched the name deep into his mind—unfortunately, it was just an alias.

"Darling is a fighter who participates in official competitions, we will definitely meet again!"

"Let's not talk about this anymore, let's go find Grandpa and the others first."

The grandfather Wu Yizu spoke of was a withered little old man with peculiar eyes, which he had become accustomed to squinting due to his advanced age.

Upon seeing Garuda, the old man smiled kindly: "You're back, little Garuda. Was the adventure on the ship fun?"

"Grandpa, I..." Garuda revealed a childlike expression in front of his grandfather: "I have someone I like..."

"Hmm!" The old man was taken aback for a moment, then continued kindly, "That's good. We'll talk about this later. You should go eat first; you must be tired after a long day of sightseeing."

"Hmm~" Garuda skipped away, and the Wu clan became very quiet.

"Grandpa?"

"...Who is Garuda referring to?" The old man's voice was very deep.

The curly-haired man said, "It's Flavor Sander of Suoh Seigetsu, the lightning-fast fighter who can take down his opponent in a second."

“It’s him… Garuda is just a high school student, yet he dared to make a move… beast…” The old man muttered for a while, then suddenly raised his voice and shouted, “He deserves to die!”

The old man suddenly erupted, and the ground seemed unable to bear his anger, collapsing and shaking the entire banquet hall.

Garuda, who was engrossed in his meal, was startled: "Was that Grandpa's roar just now?"

Section 110, Chapter 109: Reaching the Summit

The night was deep, and the decisive battleground was drawing ever closer; this was destined to be a sleepless night for many.

"Smack!"

Hayami, the president of Toyo Electric Power, slammed his cup down: "We sent out five assassins, and only Meguro managed to secure a spot in the competition? Useless, utterly useless!"

"We paid a high price, but hired a bunch of completely useless guys, even Nikaido is the same. It's really disappointing." Hayami shook his head, feeling that the money was not well spent.

However, the old man had a good attitude and quickly adjusted back to his old self, regaining his confidence.

"Well, it's not bad to be able to observe the enemy situation... Rino's Zero Mikazuki is incredibly fast, Tiger Wakatsuki and Strangler King Kanai are still as formidable as ever, Suoh Seigetsu's Flavor Sander easily defeated Nikaido, and Amishiro Suisan's Horu also lost to him before. He seems to be an unexpectedly strong opponent... Julius, what do you think?"

The giant standing beside Hayami had remained silent until he heard the question, then slowly said, "Before absolute power, everything is meaningless. There is no one who can defeat me!"

“Hehehe, that’s right.” As the second-in-command of the Kengan Association, Katsumasa Hayami was definitely well-informed, but he still affirmed Julius’s confidence. Clearly, this giant was no ordinary man: “Even the Fang of Metsudo is no match for you. I believe in your strength.”

Hayami refilled his glass and downed it in one gulp: "Including you, I've already placed four fighters into the main tournament. My grand plan is rock solid. That old fox, Kagen, will soon be brought down, ha."

……

In a guest room quite far from the Dongyang Electric Power room, the Wu clan was gathered. Garuda was already asleep in the inner room, while the men of the clan sat around discussing the deadly elimination tournament.

The patriarch, seated at the top, announced the selection of the fighters.

"As planned, our clan accepted the invitation from the Yamashita Society to represent them in this tournament, and the fighter we will send is you, Raian."

The so-called Wu Lei'an was a boisterous and extremely fierce young man. As a member of the Wu clan, he naturally possessed a pair of sharp eyes. Wu Lei'an slapped his thigh: "Hahaha, leave it to me, old man! Choosing me to compete was the best decision you ever made!"

"Idiot, don't disturb Garuda's sleep!" the old patriarch scolded hurriedly, then added, "Our order of appearance is decided by our employer, but if we encounter that Flavor Sander from Suoh Seigetsu, you must kill him."

"Hehehe, old man, there should be a limit to your obsession with your children. The little girl has just developed feelings for someone, and you're already trying to kill her." Although Wu Lei'an looked disdainful, he did not refuse the request. Instead, he was very excited: "Don't worry, whoever gets in my way, I'll just kill them all."

Wu Lei'an's laughter could be faintly heard coming from the guest room and echoing in the corridor.

On this night, everyone has their own rhythm and their own thoughts.

A Black man was "eating" in his room, and he made a complete mess of his meal.

A policeman had just finished having dinner with his lover and was full of ambition to go and achieve "justice".

There's a big fat guy playing video games.

Mickey Mouse is lamenting, "It's time to wake up from this dream."

Wrestler Guan Lin and fisherman He Lu have become drinking buddies and are currently enjoying a hearty drink.

Murobuchi Tsuyoshi had a bit of an upset stomach and went to the toilet many times...

Ryo Inaba, with his messy hair and crawling on all fours, startled Keizaburo Sawada, a ballet dancer who was taking a walk.

Boxing champion Gaolang was talking to a super enthusiastic young man from Myanmar, and he looked annoyed.

As Imai Kosuke and Wakatsuki Takeshi entered the hall, they, who had been causing quite a stir all night, had taken down two people in the infirmary.

Fighting King Okubo pulled aside Kaneda Suekichi, the first assassin on the Kengan, but instead of discussing his qualification for the preliminary round, he was still upset about losing the game.

In the shadows, someone was watching everyone. Chiba Takayuki, the "actor" who had once volunteered to President Yoshitake, had indeed become a fighter for Yoshitake Real Estate. He was instructing President Yoshitake: "When forming groups, please let me go out as late as possible. I need to observe more!"

“These men’s eyes are filled with a competitive desire.” Also observing them was a foreigner dressed as a priest, with a beautiful blonde girl beside him.

"Brother, you have to keep going!"

"Don't put pressure on me, Elena. As long as I have the composure to overcome any hardship, that's enough..." The priest suddenly turned his head, glaring at the approaching passersby with a devilishly fierce look: "Let's see who dares to hit on my sister? Are they looking for death!"

……

Rei Mikazuchi remains immersed in Rino's gentle embrace.

The owner of Shi Wang Communications went to visit his fighter, and strangely enough, the person was locked in a cage.

On deck, the eccentric Dr. Yingchu flipped through a photo album: "I don't know why, but tonight I just want to open this photo album and look at it..."

Adam and Oni-no-yama shared a couple of drinks, and through Hana-on, they formed a bond.

The carefree and rational person is one of the few who can fall asleep.

Another person sleeping soundly was Setsuna, a fighter from the Imperial Sakura Academy, who drifted off to sleep clutching a Tokita Ohma doll.

Izumi was taking a shower in his room when I first saw him. He was one of the few fighters who could fall asleep.

As for Tokita Ohma, he was on the deck welcoming the sunrise when the mercenary Yamashita Kazuo found him, just as the sun rose behind him.

"Looks like you're in great shape!" Yamashita Kazuo said to Ohma, deeply moved. Meanwhile, in the main cabin, someone else said the same thing to Kanagawa, the Fang of Destroyer.

Ghana did not respond and remained silent.

"You've always maintained a calm and composed attitude." This is what Kirito Takakaze said to Gensai Kuroki: "I'm counting on you."

Kuroki was resting with his eyes closed, neither overly excited nor overly calm. This grandmaster had already adjusted himself to his best condition.

"I hope to meet some real masters in this competition, which will help me reach a higher level."

As the morning sun rose, it woke Miho. She yawned and came to the deck, where she saw Kanon wearing a coat, gazing into the distance from the railing.

The sea breeze gently caressed her hair, and the morning sun shone on her face. Hana's expression was solemn and dignified, like that of a goddess.

"Kanon..." Miho was mesmerized by the sight, and after a long while, she finally asked, "Are you nervous?"

Kanon smiled at Mieko, instantly reverting to the gentle demeanor Mieko was familiar with: "Of course I'm nervous, but also very excited, just like a child before a sports meet. To be honest, I'm just an ordinary person."

Miho walked over and rested her head on Kanon's shoulder: "Kanon isn't an ordinary person, you're my most reliable hero~"

Full of confidence and with a major battle looming, Hana recited a famous poem by the Sage of Poetry.

How majestic is Mount Tai! Its verdant peaks stretch endlessly across Qi and Lu. Nature has bestowed upon it divine beauty, dividing day and night with its shadow. Clouds rise from its summit, stirring the heart; birds fly into view, piercing the eye. I will surely climb to its highest peak, and survey all the lesser mountains below.

We've arrived at Kengan Island, the final battleground of the Kengan Tournament's elimination rounds.

Section 111, Chapter 110: Southern Paradise

August and September are the tail end of summer for Tokyo. Even though the weather hasn't cooled down yet, it's not as hot as it used to be. But at this moment, the Kengan, which set sail from Tokyo Bay, has arrived at a tropical island.

The announcement played repeatedly over the loudspeaker: "Please watch your step and disembark in an orderly manner. We have arrived at the battlefield, the place where all wishes converge: Wish Stream Island!"

Three or four thousand passengers boarded the deck, packing the enormous cruise ship to capacity. Suoh Mieko remarked with emotion, "Ganryu Island…this name is a tribute to Ganryu Island, isn't it!"

“Yes, for the Japanese, Ganryu Island, where Miyamoto Musashi and Sasaki Kojiro fought their final battle, is a sacred place. The name Ganryu Island sounds very solemn.” Standing next to Miho was Yamashita Kazuo. Perhaps because they were both lazy presidents of the Kengan Association, the two had gotten along well since the beginning of their journey.

As the sun rose, the great battle was about to begin. Even Yamashita Kazuo, who was usually an ordinary middle-aged man, showed a rare serious expression: "Kengan Zemei Tournament, a life-and-death duel between warriors who fight to the death with blood. Good, this sense of pressure is just right. I'm getting into the zone."

Kazuo Yamashita fully embraced his role as a Kengan Association mercenary: "Mr. Ohma will not lose, and I must be prepared! From this moment on, no matter what happens, I will not waver!"

Then... well, Yamashita Kazuo immediately wavered.

There were no strict guards, no arena of blood and fire on Wish Flow Island, and not even serious-looking staff.

Here, countless bikini-clad beauties, holding flower wreaths, lined up to welcome you.

"Dear guests of the Kengan Association, you must be tired from your long journey. Welcome to Kengan Island! Please relax and unwind after your trip!"

What... what is all this...?

Not only was Kazuo Yamashita stunned, but most of the people who came down from Kengan were also shocked. What happened to the deadly elimination tournament? What happened to the stage for fierce warriors to fight each other? How did the scene suddenly turn into a southern paradise mode of Hainan Island and Hawaii?

"But bikini-clad beauties, sunny beaches... how should I put it... anyway, this... this is definitely a good option!"
