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

"Uh, like Zhu Mei, push 40kg." Hanon knew that she was stronger than the average person, but she had not yet reached her limit, so she did not dare to be too overconfident.

The 40kg barbell felt heavy when she first picked it up, since Kanon's current weight wasn't much greater than that. But as she controlled her muscles and exerted force, the barbell seemed like child's play. Kanon easily completed three sets of 10 reps each.

Seeing that Kanon had also finished easily, Sakura Hibiki, who was still panting heavily, suddenly felt like she was turning into a jealous person: "It's one thing for the experienced Akemi, but how come even the skinny and inexperienced Kanon is so strong... Ugh, am I just not good enough?"

"Don't be so down, Sakura-kun," Coach Machio said, coming over to comfort her. "I could only lift 100kg the first time I bench pressed!"

"Ugh, isn't that incredibly talented?!" Hibiki was too exhausted to even complain: "I can't take it anymore, I'm even less confident now. Someone as weak as me will be laughed at."

"That's not true." Masao flashed his signature hearty smile: "Nobody would laugh at someone who works so hard!"

"Ah, Mr. Machio..." Bingo, Hibiki was once again struck by the refreshingly handsome guy's ball.

"This guy is so handsome, even his soul is so handsome! I've really fallen for him!"

With this in mind, Hibiki decided to try the bench press again, but Masao stopped her: "You were already exhausted from your first workout. It's not too late to rest for a few days before trying again. That's right, again... again..."

The word "again" seemed to trigger Jie Xiong's switch. After muttering it a few times, he suddenly did a bodybuilding side stretch, and his muscles swelled up abnormally. With a "rip" sound, his clothes were ripped off!

"Wow, this is amazing!" Hana was stunned.

"What's going on? Underneath that clean-cut, handsome face... there are actually thick muscles that look like they've been photoshopped?" Hibiki was thrown into complete chaos.

"That's amazing!" Only Zhu Mei was extremely excited: "I noticed Coach Machi's muscles before... This perfect body without any excess fat is as beautiful as a diamond! Ahhhhh!"

Hanon and Hibiki suddenly realized: "What? So she wasn't interested in Machiyuu before, she was just infatuated with his muscles."

Well, when Zhu Mei, this hardcore muscle fanatic, gets into a frenzy, she's not your average person.

However, this commotion actually brought her closer to Hanon and Hibiki—a saint inspires respect, a saint inspires awe, a saint is not to be approached; a person with some minor flaws is actually more endearing.

As for Coach Machi, it turns out he's not some handsome guy at all, but a "monster"! Hana suddenly realized why she didn't feel any resistance towards him.

And so, the three of them spent a pleasant week at Mr. Shirogane's gym. "Meat Bro's" explanations were very thorough, and Kanon was exceptionally talented. Her muscle level and physical fitness improved at an absolutely lightning speed. However, her foundation was too weak, and in Akemi and Hibiki's minds, she hadn't yet associated her with "monsters." They just thought Kanon was a very talented fitness girl.

But Kanon, whose confidence was growing, had decided to go and watch the Kengan match.

Fans of Kengan Ashura and Muscle Girl will be in for a Kengan-related "main course" starting today! Kanon will gradually get involved in Kengan matches. Although you'll find out the answers soon, why not guess which familiar Kengan fighters she'll encounter in the remaining two chapters today?

Section 11, Chapter 11: Let's go watch the Kengan match!

"What? You say you want to watch the Kengan match?"

Inside the Takakaze family mansion, Takakaze Kirito stared at his niece with disbelief, wondering if he had misheard.

But Kanon quickly repeated her request: "Yes, Uncle, I'm very interested in the Kengan match and would like to go and watch it."

After confirming Hanon's thoughts, Takakaze Kiriji immediately gave his answer: "No, that match is too bloody, there's nothing to see."

"But Uncle..."

"No, I can't do as you say. The Kengan Tournament isn't child's play." Seeing that Hanon still wanted to plead, Takakaze Kirito added, "This is the final decision. Don't say anything more."

"...Okay, I understand." Hanon respected Takakaze Kirito very much, and being a man at heart, she couldn't bring herself to act cute or coquettish. Seeing that she couldn't get permission from her uncle, she had no choice but to take her leave and go back to her room.

"I'll ask Mihono tomorrow. Even though she's at the bottom, she's still a member of the Kengan Association," Kanon thought.

In the study, after refusing Hanon's invitation, Takakaze Kirito poured himself a glass of strong liquor and sat on the sofa, lost in thought.

A person walked into the house, and without even looking, I knew that the familiar footsteps belonged to the old butler, Ito.

"Ito, raising a child is really difficult!" Facing this old family member who had been by his side since he was a child, Kirito couldn't help but feel a lot of emotions and drank the wine in his glass in one gulp.

Ito poured Kirito another glass of wine: "Taking care of children is hard work. I remember you and your sister were especially mischievous when you were little; you'd disappear in the blink of an eye." After a pause, the old butler asked, "I saw Miss Hanon go back to her room looking dejected. Did she say anything?"

"That child wanted to watch the Kengan match, but I refused." Kirito shook his head. "She's getting too close to that Suoh girl. Has she been influenced by her?"

Unexpectedly, Ito's answer was negative: "No, Mr. Takakaze, I think it's a good thing that Ms. Kanon wants to watch the Kengan match."

"Oh?" Kirito was taken aback. "Don't you usually take good care of Kanon? Why..."

The old butler smiled kindly: "I care about Miss Hanon, and so do you, which is why you're so worried! If nothing unexpected happens, Miss Hanon will be the future head of the Takakaze family, and as the head of the Takakaze family, how can she avoid the existence of the Kengan Association? Miss Hanon is just going to watch the matches, not to participate in the Kengan herself. Getting familiar with that world sooner is not necessarily a bad thing!"

Finally, Ito added a sarcastic remark: "Unless you, sir, return to your family now, get married, have children, and try to create a baby, perhaps a successor from the main family will come to protect Miss Kanon from the bloody and violent underworld."

Awakened by the old butler's words, Takakaze Kirito fell into thought. After a few minutes of silence, he raised his glass again and drank the wine in one gulp. At the same time, he made up his mind: "Thank you, Ito. You are right. I should let Kanon know about the underworld earlier. If she grows up in a greenhouse like the Suoh family's daughter, if something happens to me, the Takakaze family may be finished."

……

Hanon was surprised by her uncle's change in attitude. Although she didn't understand why, the outcome was still good. Three days later, Hanon and Kirito arrived at an abandoned building.

The building's exterior is marked with a sign that reads "No Entry for Unauthorized Personnel," and it appears quiet and deserted. However, the number of luxury cars parked around the perimeter reveals that this place is far from peaceful.

Sure enough, as they entered the depths of the building, they heard a great commotion. Nearly a hundred people had gathered inside and outside, forming a circle, clearly intended to be used as the venue for the Kengan match.

However, there is only one person in a referee's uniform waiting in the arena at the moment; neither of the players has taken to the field.

"Kane, now that you're starting to explore the Otherworld, you need to carefully understand everything here." Kirito began instructing Kanon: "The Kengan Association currently has 414 registered companies, no, it's 417 now. Besides the two fighters, people from other companies can freely attend each match, and many people bet on the outcome while watching..."

"So Miho is no longer at the bottom?" Kanon's focus was elsewhere.

"Concentrate!" Kiji glared at her, and Hana quickly focused her attention and listened attentively.

"Kengan Association has a long history and many members, which naturally led to the formation of many factions. The old chairman, Metsudo, held authority for a long time, while under him were the veteran 'Three Heroes', the new generation of 'Four Dragons', and the extremely powerful 'Hundred-Man Association', etc."

"So, which faction does our Eagle Wind family belong to?" Hana asked a crucial question.

"Our Eagle Wind family belongs to the liberal faction and does not belong to any side."

Hana twitched the corner of her mouth: "As expected, this is the answer my uncle would give."

Kiji continued, “The fighters employed by companies are generally called fighters. Most companies have one or two resident fighters, but many companies also use freelance fighters to compete. Currently, the Kengan Association has more than 1200 registered fighters, with each person fighting an average of 8.5 matches per year. They come from all walks of life; some are fighting experts in underground boxing matches in the underworld, some are world-renowned martial arts masters in the real world, and there are also professional assassins, professional athletes, and even doctors, artists, and other alternative professions. But without a doubt, they are all rare and strong individuals in the world.”

"Then... how do we find fighters?" Kanon asked Mieko the question.

"Whether you train them yourself or hire them, it all boils down to the company's strength. Only powerful companies have the resources to train powerful martial artists or find and persuade those arrogant guys. The only exception is having a discerning eye to discover a super gem from the ordinary, or winning over top experts through personal relationships, but such cases are extremely rare." Qieji explained patiently and earnestly to his niece.

Well, it seems that unless Kanon really becomes a top-tier fighter and volunteers to fight for Mieko out of friendship, that girl is destined for tragedy...

"Oh~ Isn't this Mr. Takakaze? You're a rare guest; it's not often we see you at the Kengan Arena."

A delicate-looking, yes, delicate-looking, short-haired, flamboyant man walked over. His effeminate manner was truly an eyesore.

However, Takakaze Kirito clearly valued this person highly, and replied earnestly, "President Yoshitake, hello. I just brought my niece here to give her a look around."

After saying that, Kirito turned to Kanon and introduced, "Kanon, this is Yoshitake Keiro, the president of Yoshitake Real Estate. Under his leadership, Yoshitake Real Estate has risen rapidly in recent years and can be called the rising star of the Kengan Association! Today's match will feature fighters from his team... By the way, President Yoshitake, don't you need to accompany your fighters?"

"Hehe, no need, no need." Yoshitake Keiro looked confident: "This time I've found some pretty good fighters, my Rito is super strong~"

That's right, the author is writing about Rito's debut match here (he had a record of five wins and zero losses before his match against Kengan's protagonist, Ohma)! The eccentric president of the club, Gibu, who looks effeminate but is actually very manly, has also appeared.

In this chapter, the author provides a detailed introduction to the Kengan Association, which should give new readers a general understanding of the situation. The data on 417 companies, 1205 fighters, and an average of 8.5 battles per person comes from the original manga and the wiki. There may be some details that manga readers may have missed, so feel free to review them.

Rito's opponent also appears in the Kengan Ashura manga, but he's just a nobody who doesn't deserve a name... The author is currently considering whether to give him a name...

Chapter 12 Chapter 12: Razor management

The first to enter was a tall young man with dyed blond hair, who was also the first Kengan fighter that Hanon had ever seen in his life.

In regular Kengan matches, the referee often doubles as the emcee. The bespectacled referee pointed to the blond-haired fighter and introduced him: "Height 188 cm, weight 97 kg, first appearance in a Kengan match, representative of Gibu Real Estate, he calls himself—Rijin!"

The young man named Rihito burst into laughter: "Hahaha, watch me cause a ruckus!"

"Uh, what an arrogant guy," Hana said, rubbing her forehead. This kind of person was also one she wasn't good at dealing with.

"As for his opponent, he is 192 cm tall, weighs 100 kg, and has a record in Kengan matches..."

"No need for introductions! I'll take care of him soon anyway," Rito rudely interrupted the introduction.

"You bastard, do you look down on me?" Li Ren's opponent, a fat, burly man half a head taller than him, was furious. He walked directly up to Li Ren and pressed his face against his: "Arrogant brat, today I'm going to tear you to pieces!"

"Wow, look what a ripped-up man looks like." Rito was completely unconcerned, leaving the burly man aside, and called out to the referee, "Hey, sir, let's start the match. Anyway, as long as we take this guy down, this land will belong to Yoshimu Real Estate, right?"

The referee, having encountered such arrogant fighters before, knew there was no point in arguing at this point and simply announced the start of the match: "Alright, both sides prepare, begin—"

Before the word "begin" could even be uttered, the man and the burly man were already throwing punches and kicks at each other.

Both men were physically strong and had been provoking each other before the match, so when they exchanged heavy punches, the force of the blows created a gust of wind, and the surrounding spectators involuntarily took a few steps back.

To observe the Kengan match closely, Kanon deliberately stood in the front row. She was startled by the sight of the fight and took a few steps back. When she came to her senses, a sense of confusion arose in her heart: "Sigh, I've never been in a fight before. Now when I see others fighting, my first reaction is to back away. Can I really compete in Kengan like this?"

Despite her confusion, she still had to watch the game. Gradually, Kanon realized that although Rito and the strongman's movements were swift, she could completely track their offensive and defensive trajectories.

After all, Kanon is a unique genius created by special circumstances, one of a kind in the world, who can perfectly control her muscles! The muscle groups around her eyes are fully mobilized, and the speed of her gaze is only on the fighter's fists and feet.

Hanon had watched some fighting videos before, and now, seeing it with her own eyes confirmed her confidence, which began to rise again: "Once I get used to their rhythm, it seems like the Kengan match isn't out of reach."

While Hanon was lost in thought, the fight between Rihito and the burly man was nearing its end.

Weight advantage is very important in fighting. The strong man was ultimately taller and bigger than Rito. Under the barrage of heavy punches, Rito began to retreat.

"Hahaha, you brat, you dare look down on me? Now you can't take my heavy punches, can you!" The burly man, having gained a slight advantage, immediately became smug: "You remember this, my name is—ah!"

The burly man let out a scream and flew backward, a jet of blood splattering from his body.

After the burly man stopped, everyone noticed that he had a long and deep wound that ran from his forehead to his temple. Blood was gushing out from the rich capillaries around his forehead and eyebrows, making him look ferocious and terrifying.

The burly man's voice was filled with fear: "What...what did you do to me?"

The surrounding audience was also agitated.

"Wow, did you see that? What happened?" "What did this guy do?" "He secretly brought the murder weapon in?"

Of those present, perhaps only Kanon caught the truth: "It was a finger, that Rito's finger... it was very sharp, like a cleaver, it sliced ​​off a piece of flesh."

"Hmm, you can see it clearly?" Kirito, standing next to Kanon, was astonished. As a veteran member of the Kengan Association, Kirito had associated with countless powerful individuals throughout his life, and his knowledge of martial arts was naturally extremely high. However, an ordinary person is still an ordinary person; he couldn't see Rito's movements clearly and could only guess based on experience. Now, Kanon had seen through Rito's secret in one breath, and this insight was truly rare.

"This insight will be extremely useful, whether it's discovering fighters or finding the enemy's weaknesses to formulate a plan! This child... might really have the talent to be a Kengan Association entrepreneur." Kirito thought silently, beginning to truly see Kanon from the perspective of a family heir rather than a younger relative.

Of course, at this moment, Takakaze Kirito had no idea that Kanon was considering whether or not to personally participate in the Kengan match...

Back on the field, Rito had turned the tables and was now on the strongman's side. His fingers were incredibly sharp, and each strike left a bloody mark on the strongman's body.
