Pirate: This Marine has two Rinnegan.

"Lazly, let me show you around the company. Fighting can get you hurt!"

As she spoke, she turned and glared at Yamcha, who then played along, saying...

"Yes, yes, students should focus on their studies. Fighting is never a good thing!"

Seeing that both of them said so, Number 18 had no choice but to give up. She also felt that she had gone a bit too far. Anyway, the scumbag belonged to Bulma, not her.

However, she still felt a little regretful that she didn't get to see Chika beat up the scumbag, so she couldn't help but sigh softly.

It was this sigh that made Chiga change his mind. Even 18 was acting cute towards him. As a man, how could he let 18 down?

Amidst the surprised gazes of the crowd, Qianhe spoke,

"Actually, a friendly spar wouldn't hurt. I've been wanting to see the skills of a martial artist for a long time!"

Bulma cursed under her breath, thinking she had tried her best to give Chiga a way out. Even that annoying little imp had given in, so why did this guy suddenly come back to his old ways?

Mrs. Brief clapped her hands and praised,

"Young people are full of energy! Keep it up, Qianhe! I believe in you!"

No. 18 was surprised that Chika would suddenly agree. Actually, she no longer wanted Chika to fight Yamcha. She felt that Bulma's words made a lot of sense. Fighting can lead to injuries!

Although she felt that Chika would definitely win, Yamcha on the other side was, after all, a martial artist, and she was a little afraid that Chika might get injured by accident.

She quickly spoke up.

"Chika, let's just forget about it. I was being too childish just now. Let's go back!"

Chika reached out and playfully hooked No. 18's nose, then whispered in her ear,

"Alright, actually you wanted me to teach that jerk a lesson, right? No problem, just watch from here."

After saying that, Chiga looked up and kissed Number 18 on the forehead, causing Number 18 to blush instantly and freeze there like a porcelain doll.

After admiring Number 18's adorable expression, Chiga turned and walked towards Yamcha. On the way, Chiga took off her black-rimmed glasses, and a flash of golden light appeared in her eyes.

In that instant, Yamcha felt a terrifying pressure. He felt like a small boat adrift on the sea, in danger of being swallowed up at any moment.

Chapter 421 Anger

This oppressive aura lasted only a moment, but it still left Yamcha stunned, unable to recover for a long time.

It wasn't until Chiga spoke up to remind him,

"Mr. Yamcha, shall we begin?"

Yamcha woke up with a start, only then realizing that he was completely soaked in sweat.

Bulma frowned. She had no idea what Yamcha was up to this time. His behavior just now seemed like he was just pretending to be stupid.

Yamcha did not connect that oppressive aura with Chika in front of him. In his mind, how could such a powerful "aura" be reduced to almost disappearing in an instant?

He shook his head, temporarily putting the matter out of his mind.

Yamcha casually struck a pose and said,

"Chiga-kun, you go first!"

Qianhe smiled slightly, responded, and then his figure instantly disappeared from the spot.

Yamcha thought he was seeing things, but before he could react, Chika appeared in front of him and threw a punch.

Of course, Chiga had already reduced the power of this punch to a very low level. Yamcha's current fighting power is only around 177. He was afraid that he would hit Yamcha into that classic pose with one punch.

Even so, Yamcha was still knocked back by the punch, and only managed to stop when his back hit a tree.

This scene made Bulma cover her mouth in surprise, while Android 18 clenched her fists and kept cheering Chiga on.

Yamcha was genuinely frightened this time. He hadn't expected Chiga to actually be quite capable. The power of that punch alone proved that Chiga was no ordinary human.

Given Yamcha's current physical condition, even if he were hit by a speeding car, he wouldn't be in such a sorry state.

He dusted off his back and his gaze toward Qianhe instantly turned serious.

Chiga always wore a smiling expression, but even when he smiled without his glasses, he exuded a strange sense of pressure.

Yamcha, his rival, felt this most strongly.

He swallowed hard, inwardly complaining.

"Are all high school students this amazing these days?"

He steadied himself, crouched slightly, and then rushed towards Qianhe.

As he ran, he had already created afterimages with his fists, and one could vaguely see the phantom of wolves looming over him.

This is Yamcha's signature move, the Wolf Fang Wind Fist.

Chiga remained still, extending one hand to catch every punch Yamcha threw in his palm.

Yamcha grew increasingly alarmed as he fought. After several unsuccessful attempts, he pushed off with both feet and soared into the air, performing a backflip to create distance between himself and Chiga.

Chiga withdrew her hand, her long, snow-white hair swaying gently in the breeze, giving her an air of mastery that left Yamcha momentarily mesmerized.

Stars were already in No. 18's eyes. She had never seen Chika like this before. Even without looking at Chika's face, her aura alone was enough to fascinate her.

Even Bulma was staring blankly at Chiga, and Chiga's image in her mind was gradually shrouded in a fog.

Yamcha couldn't help but ask,

"Who...who exactly are you?"

Chiga shrugged and said casually,

"I'm really just a high school student!"

He was telling the truth, because in the Dragon Ball world, he was a high school student, and there was absolutely no exaggeration.

Yamcha naturally didn't believe it, and he shook his head, saying...

"Impossible, you must have a master, right? It can't be Master Roshi, could it be Master Crane?"

"Well, if we're talking about masters, I only have one master, and that's Zefa."

"Zefa?"

Yamcha was taken aback. Zephyr? Who was this guy? He'd never heard of him before.

Chiga didn't intend to continue on this topic. He had another purpose in fighting Yamcha: to experience the unique feature of the Dragon Ball world—ki.

Especially the energy ball formed by releasing qi outwards—I was a bit too quick when I killed Raditz last time, and I forgot about this.

He looked at Yamcha and said.

"Mr. Yamcha, I saw you use a flying ball of light at the martial arts tournament before. I'm very interested in it. Could you let me see it?"

"A flying ball of light? You mean manipulating air blasts?"

"So it's called a 'gas bomb'? That's a really cool name."

"Haha, really? I'm quite happy with this name too!"

Yamcha got a little carried away by the praise, and the Ki Blast was indeed his most prized move.

After their exchange, he knew that Chiga was no ordinary person. Using ordinary moves would be a waste of effort, so he decided to use his ultimate move to determine the winner.

But if you're going to unleash your ultimate move, you have to make sure you're as cool as possible.

So Yamcha assumed a horse stance and opened his palms.

He began to hold his breath and concentrate, letting his energy flow into his hands. Gradually, a bright blue ball of light emerged from his palm.

Number 18 stared wide-eyed. This kind of magic trick was beyond her comprehension. It was the first time she had ever seen "qi".

Chiga narrowed his eyes. He could feel the energy in that ball of light. To put it simply, whether in the One Piece world or the Naruto world, very few people could withstand this attack using conventional methods.

Yamcha looked smugly at the ball of light in his hand and said,

"This is my self-created ultimate move, the Manipulated Air Bomb! How about it? Want to try its power? I should warn you beforehand, its explosive power is far more terrifying than any bomb!"

Chiga smiled on the surface, but inwardly she thought to herself,

"It's quite powerful. I don't think this thing has ever killed anyone, has it?"

Upon hearing Yamcha's words, a look of worry appeared on Android 18's face. That ball of light did look incredibly intimidating. If its power was really as Yamcha described, could Chiga withstand it?

However, when she saw Chika's still smiling face, most of her unease dissipated.

Chiga responded with a smile.

"Come on, I'm ready!"

Yamcha nodded, then pinched two fingers together and forcefully flung the energy ball toward Chiga. The moment the energy ball left his hand, he was already in position, ready to control it to chase after Chiga.

This is the true essence of manipulating air bullets, which mainly focuses on the word "manipulation" (操), pronounced with a first tone.

However, what happened next surprised him greatly, because Chiga didn't dodge at all; he actually reached out and pressed his hand on the flying energy ball.

And he actually held that energy ball in his hand, just like an ordinary rubber ball.

What follows is even more outrageous: Yamcha tried to remotely detonate the energy ball when it was blocked, but the energy ball suddenly deflated and turned into an irregularly shaped mass of energy that flowed into Chiga's palm.

"Nani!?"

Chapter 422 No. 18

Chiga looked at her palm, which was gleaming faintly, and muttered to herself,

"Just as I thought, Qi can be absorbed."

In his view, Qi is the life energy produced by the human body, and the divine tree originally had the function of absorbing life energy.

However, lower-level divine trees can only first sow chakra seeds into the human body, and then recycle them after the person has refined the chakra to be more powerful.

However, Chiga is someone who ate the fruit of the ultimate divine tree, so any life energy is a great tonic for him.

With a thought, a bright blue sphere of light appeared in Qianhe's palm. Yamcha's eyes widened in surprise, and she exclaimed...

"How is that possible?! That's my manipulator blast!?"

Chiga pointed a finger at Yamcha, and a ball of light shot out, finally stopping just a little distance from Yamcha's face.
