Cyberpunk: Nirvana of Shoko Toyokawa

Now that Xiangzi was at such a close distance, he could clearly see the fine cracks on the joints of Bronze Jaw's biochemical prosthetic fingers.

"Very good, very good—" the host shouted, "Next, don't blink—because the victory or defeat may be decided in an instant!"

He raised his hand high and made the "3" gesture.

"3!"

"2!"

"1!"

"start!"

The two men moved.

[Bronze Jaw] extends right fist.

A strong wind.

Xiangzi dodged sideways and threw out the same right punch.

The right fist of [Bronze Jaw] rubbed past Xiangzi's defensive left hand and hit Xiangzi's left collarbone, making a dull sound - and Xiangzi's right fist just barely rubbed past the left upper arm of [Bronze Jaw] -

Blood spurted out.

Xiangzi staggered and took a few steps back.

The crowd exclaimed.

but.

It’s not because Xiangzi is about to be eliminated.

But it was because [Bronze Jaw] was also shaking and retreating the same number of steps.

"..."

Xiangzi breathed lightly and shallowly, enduring the pain in his collarbone and looking forward.

really.

What she saw was Copper Jaw's expression mixed with shock and anger.

"……you……"

[Bronze Jaw] pressed his left arm.

The part where he was scratched just now was bleeding profusely.

"…What…are you…holding…in your hand…"

[Bronze Jaw] stared at Xiangzi intently.

Xiangzi just looked at him.

"Don't act like a sore loser," she said calmly. "Everyone here has undergone cyber-transformation. You all know how much of your arm bones are original. It's normal to have a few scratches from the metal pieces, isn't it?"

"——!!!"

Among the indicators that the artificial eye could see, Copper Jaw's heart rate was rising rapidly - he was getting angry -

"Don't think... you can defeat me with just a little trick...!!!"

[Bronze Jaw] rushed forward——

"..."

Xiangzi watched Bronze Jaw's movements carefully.

Xiangzi has no [physical strength], so he cannot withstand blows. He has no [reaction], so he cannot dodge immediately.

However, Xiangzi was somewhat calm.

There are things she can do.

"..."

Xiangzi observed the other person's gaze.

His eyes slid from right to left, staring at his own head.

Very straightforward intention.

[Bronze Jaw] uses cheating techniques to maintain a high winning rate. He is not a professional underground boxer.

So, he is not good at fake moves.

And, in anger, even less so.

"(The target was my temple.)"

Xiangzi couldn't withstand the opponent's attack head-on, nor could he react after the opponent attacked.

So, she will predict in advance.

"!"

Xiangzi squatted down in advance.

[Bronze Jaw]'s fist slid over Xiangzi's head.

then.

Xiangzi punched from below.

Her right fist hit Copper Jaw's stomach - it wasn't a heavy attack -

But again.

"!"

When Xiangzi pulled his hand back, another line of blood appeared.

In the blood - between Xiangzi's index and middle fingers, there was a flash of cold light.

It was the tip of the knife that could only be seen clearly at a very close distance.

fair play.

it means……

"(You have weapons, and so do I.)"

Xiangzi hid her [Nirvana] in the palm of his hand!

Of course, she didn't carry a knife to accept the organizer's scan.

She gave her knife to Hai Ling in advance.

When they were in the appearance circle, Xiangzi deliberately kept silent and provoked the other party - letting the other party make physical movements - and then was pushed down in an exaggerated manner.

Xiangzi fell at the edge of the field.

Then, Hai Ling quietly kicked the dagger to her at this time.

She immediately grasped the dagger in her palm.

The reason why I wear gloves is to prevent myself from being cut by the dagger.

Facing [Bronze Jaw] who was covering his stomach, Xiangzi raised his chin.

"Everyone competes fairly in the ring, right?"

Whoa whoa!!!

The crowd around them became excited! The one being booed became [Bronze Jaw]!

"——You——"

Bronze Jaw's eyes turned red with anger - not only because of this guy who was provoking him, but also because he saw that the number of onlookers was increasing, but he did not stop the match that was beyond expectations, but instead added a "partner" with a higher odds and a higher commission - damn it, he had clearly cooperated with them for several days and even paid them money -

"Do you want to end the game?"

Xiangzi asked.

"--ah--!!!"

[Bronze Jaw] didn't answer! He rushed forward!

He knew there was something in his opponent's right fist!

So, he changed his attacking position and attacked from the left.

Left punch.

Xiangzi raised his right hand to block.

[Bronze Jaw]'s left fist hit Xiangzi's right arm.

Xiangzi's left hand was a little slow to punch out - her fist grazed the right cheek of [Bronze Jaw] -

Bang-bang!

Xiangzi flew out.

However, her defense was barely successful!

Although she was still knocked to the ground by the huge force, she was not knocked out of the venue!

She stood up again.

Instead, it was [Bronze Jaw]...

"..."

[Bronze Jaw] shook a little.

thump.

He suddenly fell to his knees.

His pupils trembled, and then...

Dongsha.

[Bronze Jaw] fell to the ground.

……

The skinny young man defeated [Bronze Jaw]!

The audience was in an uproar!

"..."

Xiangzi was breathing softly.

She raised her hand and wiped the sweat from her forehead with her elbow.

Xiangzi not only hid a knife.

When you fall to the edge of the field, there is a hand-supporting movement when you fall, and a hand-supporting movement when you stand up...

She used these two actions to hide two.

Inside the right fist is [Nirvana].

Inside the left fist is the [Green Fang].

Xiangzi glanced at [Bronze Jaw] lying on the ground.

He was hit on the cheek by [Blue Fang] and is now paralyzed by the neurotoxin.

Xiangzi walked towards the host.

"Congratulations! We congratulate this amazing young person! She is the champion!"

The host said loudly with a laugh.

but.

When Xiangzi approached, he suddenly became expressionless and stared at Xiangzi.

Of course Xiangzi knew that he was disrupting other people's business.

"Just think of it as me using my registration fee to buy a barrel of your oil, and adding credibility to your 'fair' competition." Xiangzi said softly, "I won't continue playing. I will lose the next round. Give me the oil and I'll leave."

The host's eyes rolled around.
