The Azure Sea is not a warrior with ripped clothes.

As for what happens in the future, we'll talk about that later. Two single people like us aren't qualified to teach Ai Cai how to date.

"The three of you, please come here to verify your numbers... All three of you have numbers ending in 'last', please go to the number one rock-paper-scissors table to line up."

"Thank you. I think the number one rock-paper-scissors ring is located here."

Without much effort, the three quickly found their competition location, where a long queue had already formed in order.

Miyazawa Yu showed the staff the number in his hand and was immediately assigned to his opponent.

"Kohei, I'm going first. Don't let me down, you bastard!"

"Of course! I'll return that to you verbatim, so don't lose the match in the first round!"

"Why did you two start a fire without permission?"

Completely incomprehensible, Yoshihara Aina watched as Miyazawa Yu walked onto the field with an aura of no return, tilting her head and feeling that her chances of winning were slim.

After all, rock-paper-scissors is a zero-sum game that relies purely on luck. Even if we have six people on our side, it's still far from enough compared to the skills of thousands of people.

It would probably be difficult for them to win even one game together!

"The winner! Number five thousand!"

"The winner! Number 4998!"

"Ugh?"

Completely bewildered, before Yoshihara Mana could even react, she was already on the field, only to be knocked out in one go by the fiercely competitive junior high school student.

"Why did you all win?! Even luck had to separate us?!"

"Well, well, I can't help it. After playing in the Pab club for so long, rock-paper-scissors is practically like breathing!"

"That's right, I just had a feeling we would win, and then we won..."

A serious nod indicates that when a skill is mastered, the body will instinctively react to winning or losing.

Because it is a game of rock-paper-scissors, and because it embodies a strong desire to accept the opponent's wishes, Miyazawa Yuu calls it "Kengan"!

"What the hell! What do you mean by 'just because you think you'll win'? This is just taking advantage of the fact that I didn't play rock-paper-scissors with you guys!"

"Even so..."

They exchanged a glance, and Miyazawa Yu and Imamura Kohei simultaneously looked at Mana with disdain: "But isn't it you who refused to play with us? If anyone should be isolating us, it should be you, right?"

"Gah!"

Yoshihara Aina was speechless, after all, she had indeed firmly refused every time Yu invited her to play baseball boxing when he was drunk.

"Yoshi! Let's continue our journey, Kohei!"

"Oh!"

Without giving the three a chance to continue debating who was right and who was wrong, the second and third matches began one after another. As the number of participants decreased, the frequency of the matches also increased significantly.

Yoshihara Aina stared blankly as Yu and Kohei won one victory after another until only ten people remained in each group.

"Oh my~ It must have been really tough for everyone to stand out from so many people. Now, let's have two mixed-group competitions to decide the ten people who will stay in the end!"

Standing on the same stage, Miyazawa Yu was naturally assigned to table number one.

Besides him, Kohei occupied table number two, while Iori stood opposite a burly man at table number ten.

"This...this can't be right! How could the ratio be so high! Could rock-paper-scissors really increase the odds of winning at rock-paper-scissors?"

"Now it seems like this is the only reason..."

They were quickly defeated. Looking at the three scumbags on the stage, Kotegawa Chisa's eyes were filled with helplessness. This was probably a true reflection of how evil people live for thousands of years.

"The seniors are all very strong. And what is 'Yakyuken'?"

"It's nothing, just a very common drinking game. You'll understand it when you go to university."

Not wanting to disrupt the innocent lives of middle school students, Yoshihara Aina stopped Ishigami Yu, who wanted to look something up online: "Look! The match looks like it's about to start!"

"Ready! Three! Two! One! Rock, paper, scissors!"

Brush and pull!

Twenty fists were thrown almost simultaneously, and as expected, Yu Miyazawa and Kohei Imamura won the victory.

However, when they turned their attention to table number ten, they saw Iori, who had collapsed just before receiving the award, her face ashen and unable to rise again.

"What! Iori actually lost? Could it be that his opponent was also a master of baseball fighting?!"

"Rock-paper-scissors isn't necessarily a game of rock-paper-scissors! And maybe people just got lucky..."

Not wanting to deal with these idiots who only knew basic rock-paper-scissors, Yoshihara Aina looked at Iori, who had been dragged back by Chisa, and said regretfully, "It's okay, winning and losing are common in war, it's just bad luck."

"...Wait a minute! Yu, be careful, I feel like he's changed his hand!"

The graying lasted only a few dozen seconds; a fool's sadness always fades very quickly.

However, this does not mean that Iori admits defeat. On the contrary, he seriously warned Miyazawa Yu that there is definitely something wrong with the guy who just fought against him!

"Changing hands? Isn't that cheating?"

"No! Although it may look like cheating, changing the gesture before making the final gesture is a permitted technique."

Shaking his head and extending one hand, Kohei Imamura slowed down, slightly protruding the knuckles of his index and middle fingers, making a scissor-like motion.

However, at the last moment before making the gesture, he unexpectedly spread all five fingers wide.

"It looks easy, but you actually need to be highly focused on both your hands and eyes. After all, there's only a fine line between skill and cheating!"

"I see, then Yu is in danger!"

"..."

Recalling the night I was tricked into participating in the Most Beautiful Miss competition, and how Miyazawa Yu was forced to drink two liters of shochu undiluted by Azusa-senpai, which had a Pavlovian effect.

Chisa Kotegawa's eyes twitched slightly, then she clasped her hands together in prayer for her opponent, hoping that he wouldn't be so provoked by Yu that his Dao heart would be shattered.

Chapter 121 The Final Battle! Internal War in the Pab Division!

"Then please allow me to congratulate everyone in advance that you have obtained a test slot!"

On stage, the spotlight no longer focused solely on Kadako, but equally illuminated every remaining contestant.

"However, to encourage everyone to compete for first place, the grand prize for the winner will be a collector's edition of the game! It also includes special NPCs voiced by the game's creators and exclusive storylines!"

"!!!"

The game features NPCs and storylines voiced by the adult game's voice actors, leaving Yu Miyazawa, who was standing on the stage, completely astonished—is this game company really going all out?

I secretly took out my phone and searched for the game itself, and wow! It's for all ages.

Swimming with adult voiceovers in a VR game... no matter how you look at it, this art form is a bit too ahead of its time!

"Swimming with Miss Katakuri!"

In contrast to Miyazawa Yu's composure, on the other hand, Imamura Kohei's pupils constricted, he was panting heavily, and his heart was racing so fast it felt like it was going to jump out of his mouth.

I absolutely have to get my hands on the collector's edition game!

only……

Looking at the gentle girl across from him, who was as kind as a small animal, he was certain that she had no skills whatsoever and had relied almost entirely on luck to get there.

Is it a game of "baseball fist" versus "natural" type?

Just what he wanted! Let the world see just how terrifying the Pab tribe's rock-paper-scissors really are! Hehehe!

"..."

The girl shrank her neck pitifully, feeling that the blond guy opposite her was a pervert, and was thinking of giving up the game!

"Hmph, a brat? You can't beat me with this level of skill. I'm taking the collector's edition!"

"Huh? This uncle is so old, and he's also a fan of Kadako?"

With her eyes crinkled into crescents, Miyazawa Yu wasn't very interested in the so-called collector's edition. After all, what use was it if you couldn't show off?

"Of course! Kadako is my mentor! I would never allow a brat like you to defile her!"

"Little brat, old man, isn't your early education a bit too late!"

Roughly calculated, if we consider Katakuri's debut age, her first work was a loli-themed audio anime from several years ago.

In other words, the man in front of me not only started his sexual awakening in his twenties, but also prefers younger women.

"what!"

A chill ran down his spine, and Miyazawa Yu suddenly realized that Kohei was really nice!

At least it's much better than those weird, virgin old men, and it won't be so rude as to call someone a brat...

"Ugh! How dare they laugh at me!"

His impressive pectoral muscles heaved rapidly, and the younger man took a half-step back with a distorted expression. Clearly, Miyazawa Yu's personal attack was too vicious!

but……

"Rock-paper-scissors is a battlefield where skill determines everything. You brat, you're going to die!"

"Ugh?"

"Everyone! Get ready... Three! Two! One! Rock, scissors—"

He sneered and put his hands behind his back. Even a lion uses its full strength to hunt a rabbit, and the younger man wouldn't be foolish enough to crash in a ditch.

Well then, let me see what you're up to!

The world in my eyes slows down slightly; this is a manifestation of intense mental concentration.

However, the next second his eyes widened suddenly, because he couldn't tell! The bastard opposite him was just making a loose fist with his hand, completely unpredictable!

How could that be! Could it be that this brat is trying to stall for time? No! Maybe he's just bluffing!

Cold sweat instantly covered his forehead. Looking at Miyazawa Yu, who was even yawning with his other hand pressed to his mouth out of boredom, the veins on the younger man's face bulged.

Yes! There's no time left! The hand is already halfway down, there's no time to change it! You wanted to play the stone, right?

"cloth!"

Swish—both hands fall simultaneously, and the outcome is decided regardless of the result!

"Whoosh-"

Gasping for breath, the younger man, his face flushed and neck red, poked his head out, hoping to see his victory, but the other man's scissors pierced his cloth.

"We lost! We lost! How could that be!"

"Anything is Possible, Uncle, you're still too slow."

Slowly retracting his outstretched hand, Miyazawa Yu stretched lazily, but the whole action seemed to be fast-forwarded in the eyes of the younger man.

Wait!

That's right! It only took a split second when we were playing rock-paper-scissors, how come he didn't notice that the opponent's yawning motion looked like a normal speed to him!

So this means...

"How did you do that? To have hand-eye coordination at this level, you're definitely not an ordinary person!"

"Hmph, you want to know?"

"Of course!"

This is a level I haven't reached in years. The younger man is willing to accept defeat, but he also longs for room to go further!

"In that case, go to this place; it can answer all your questions."

With an air of mystery, he tossed a flyer to the other party and walked towards the next battlefield without looking back.

Watching his retreating figure, the younger man clutched the earth-shattering secret tightly in his hand as if he had found a treasure, his face full of gratitude.

"...What are they doing?"

"I don't know, maybe it's some kind of mysterious ritual in the fitness world, or a letter of recommendation or something?"

Unable to grasp the epic feel these two share, Chisa Kotegawa can only attribute it to the mutual respect between fitness enthusiasts.

Indeed, that was the case. When Miyazawa Yu caught a glimpse of the other person's expression out of the corner of his eye, he was absolutely thrilled.

Not only can he do someone a favor, but he can also get a referral fee from SILVERMANGYM, winning twice in one go – a win-win situation!
