Starting with Kengan beating up the Pirate King

Chapter 87 Hanma Yujiro

Kengan World.

"Really? You're not planning to challenge this old man right away, and want to accumulate more experience? I thought a young man like you, Guan Yi, would be full of vigor and defeat me in one fell swoop."

After bidding farewell to the treacherous Guo Haihuang and concluding his nearly two-year training at Guo's home, Guan Yi returned to his master Wen Yunshen's house.

Although Guan Yi had mastered the art of neutralizing and countering force, he knew that his ability to neutralize force was still quite different from Guo Haihuang's.

Even with a physical advantage, it's still a long way from defeating him. After all, he's a senior martial artist with over 140 years of experience, a true pinnacle of modern martial arts!
Therefore, Guan Yi first activated the infrastructure for the 11th year, continuing the arduous accumulation of knowledge and experience.

For the next year, he resumed his long-lost life of practicing martial arts day after day at his master's house. The biggest difference from before was that he no longer needed his master's guidance; instead, he became the one who guided others.

Not only the next generation of children, but even the senior brothers and sisters would come to Guan Yi for advice when they had questions. The eldest brother even became his sparring partner, helping Guan Yi practice dissipating force in real combat, while Guan Yi also taught the eldest brother how to dissipate force.

Wen Yunshen then entered a state of enjoying his retirement, spending his days drinking tea and taking walks, living a leisurely life.

Autumn goes and spring comes; another year has passed.

The old peach tree at Master's house sprouted new branches, marking the end of Guan Yi's 11th year of infrastructure construction.

[Infrastructure construction (11-year period) completed]

[It could cost 100 billion Berry to extend the first phase of infrastructure construction by one year.]

[You can spend 5 Life Points to activate the third stage, the sixth interaction with local celebrities.]

[You can spend 10 Life Points to activate the third stage and the first international superstar interaction.]

[Wealth: 233.7 billion Berry]

[Life Points: 276996]

In the 12th year, infrastructure construction was temporarily suspended and carried out intermittently. Guan Yi chose to consume 10 life points to activate the international superstar interaction for the first time!

'Thump...thump thump...'

It worked like magic. The instant the 10 life points were spent, Guan Yi's phone started playing the soothing and beautiful Wizard of Oz ringtone.

He picked up the phone and saw that the person on the other end was someone he hadn't contacted in a long time—Tokita Ohma!

"Guan Yi, the agreed three-year period is almost up. Are you ready?"

A few days later, in Japan.

Guan Yi lightly bumped fists with Tokita Ohma, who had come to pick him up at the airport, and then nodded to Yamashita Kazuo, who was with Tokita Ohma and already looked quite successful.

"Ohma, Yamashita-kun, it's been a long time."

"Guan Yijun, it's been a long time."

Time flies, and it's been almost three years since the Kengan Elimination Tournament. Kaneki Kengan is now 31 years old, but...

"There are still almost two months left until the three-year deadline we agreed on. Why did you call me to Japan so early?"

Tokita Ohma smiled confidently.

"To prepare you mentally, so that you won't lose too badly when the appointed time comes."

"Oh?" Guan Yi raised an eyebrow slightly.

He could tell that Tokita Ohma was indeed somewhat different from three years ago.

With the hidden dangers brought by the gods gone, the illness seemed to have been completely eradicated, the muscles on his body were more perfectly arranged, and his strength had obviously increased.

"It seems you've had some good fortune?"

“It’s not just me. Wakasamurai, Imai Kosou, Kanou Aya… all of us have come into contact with a true strongman and learned a lot from him. It’s completely different from three years ago.”

As the three walked out of the airport, Tokita Ohma said, "That's why I said... whether it's you or Kuroki Gensai, you have to be prepared for defeat. Let's have a spar beforehand, Kan-i!"

……

Two hours later.

In the private training ground that Yamashita Kazuo had set up for Tokita Ohma, Tokita Ohma's previous high spirits seemed like an illusion. He squatted on the sidelines with a look of astonishment on his face, looking somewhat lost.

At the edge of the arena, Yamashita Kazuo, the only witness to the duel between the two, murmured, "This is too much! He toyed with Ohma-kun with just one hand. How could this be?"

"How could this be?"

Wang Ma couldn't understand it either. If he could see the gap between the two three years ago, now he couldn't even understand Guan Yi's level. Three years of hard work hadn't narrowed the gap; instead, it had widened to a degree he couldn't comprehend. His confident opportunity had not only failed to become his weapon of victory, but he was now even starting to doubt whether the man who had brought him that opportunity was truly a match for Guan Yi.

This is not right!

No, that's normal.

He was obsequious to Guo Haihuang, but after learning boxing from Guo Haihuang, he was on a completely different level compared to the other boxing players.

However, Tokita Ohma's moves just now were quite interesting. He has really improved a lot. At least the Kaneki of three years ago is probably no match for the current Tokita Ohma.

He stepped forward and comforted him, saying, "Wang Ma, you're not the only one who has had such good fortune. I've been learning boxing from the pinnacle of Chinese martial arts for the past two years, so of course I've made great progress."

"The pinnacle of Chinese martial arts?"

Wang Ma raised his head, let out a soft breath, and his expression gradually returned to normal. He shook his head and said, "I was a bit arrogant. That's right, if Japan has someone like Baki, China must have one too."

You mean...Baki?

"Oh, you know him?"

Tokita Ohma said, "After the Kengan Zesmei tournament, I spent a whole year recuperating before my health improved. One morning, while I was doing some rehabilitation exercises and going for a run, I happened to run into Baki, who was also running."

His full name is Baki Hanma. I could tell at a glance he wasn't an ordinary person, but I never expected him to be so strong. He defeated me as easily as you just did. It was then that I realized there are some truly strong fighters in Japan who have never participated in the Kengan tournament, yet are far stronger than us!

“Oh, the ‘we’ of today may not include you…” After a pause, Ohma continued, “We learned some moves from Baki and thought we could defeat you, but it seems we still have a long way to go to catch up.”

Guan Yi, I'm really curious now, who's stronger between you and Baki? Shall we go find him together?

An international superstar... is it Baki Hanma?

With Guo Haihuang's example as a precedent, Guan Yi wasn't surprised at all, but she didn't know which period of Baki it was: "Alright, let's go!"

……

The journey wasn't long, and it seemed that Tokita Ohma had specifically chosen a residence close to Baki's house so he could practice his fist techniques with him.

But when Tokita Ohma brought Kaneki to Baki's house, he was taken aback. The doors of Baki's house were wide open, and he could see the wooden cabinets and floors inside that looked like they had been broken into.

What's going on? Did you move?

"Baki! Are you home?"

As he asked the question, Wang Ma stepped into Baki's house, and what he saw made him frown.

"This is……"

The room was a complete mess.

The wooden bedroom door shattered into countless fragments, speckled with a few drops of blood. Large sections of the drywall ceiling collapsed, hanging precariously in mid-air, with faint fingerprints visible on them.

This definitely wasn't done by the moving company.

Baki has been attacked?!

Tokita Ohma tensed up: "Baki! Baki, are you there?!"

Just then, footsteps sounded in the bedroom, which made Wang Ma's heart skip a beat, as he felt an unprecedented sense of oppression approaching.

"Kuan Yi, be careful, it's not Baki..."

A man came out of the bedroom.

He was extremely tall and strong, with short hair standing on end like burning flames, which contrasted sharply with his bright blue eyes that shone like stars in the sky.

He possessed a broad-shouldered, inverted triangular torso, with muscle fibers and contours bulging and coiling beneath his skin, as if harboring a power capable of tearing the earth apart. Yet, in stark contrast, beneath those hands capable of crushing a human skull, he wielded a broom that appeared as small as a toothpick.

"Baki's friend?" He grinned, revealing a monstrous smile. "I think I've heard that he's made some martial arts friends and is a contestant in that ridiculous Kengan tournament."

"You've come at a bad time, Baki just got injured and went to the hospital to get it treated. Oh no, you've come at the perfect time! Come in and help me clean up!"

Like a human facing a tiger, the heavy voice made Tokita Ohma feel his thoughts and blood flow become somewhat sluggish.

Beside him, Guan Yi took a deep breath.

I knew it. If it's compared to Guo Haihuang, how could it be Baki if it consumes twice as much life points each time?

It really is that monster.

The strongest creature on Earth, the super-powerful Hanma alien, Yujiro Hanma!
