Infinite: Starting from Resident Evil

He could only nod and say, "Yes!"

There's nothing to be ashamed of admitting; it's normal for men to be attracted to women.

"Hmph, you're a big radish."

This was a fact that Chizuru Kagura already knew, but she still said it again.

But all she got in response was Shen Ye's chuckle.

The semi-finals of the winners' bracket have ended, and the next battle will be to determine the winner of the winners' bracket.

But in fact, both the fighters and the audience had already guessed the outcome.

Meanwhile, the three members of the Japanese team were discussing the matter with serious expressions.

"Kyo, let's just admit defeat later, it's not shameful." Benimaru Nikaido didn't want to fight Shen Ye at all. Being defeated in one move would be even more humiliating than admitting defeat directly.

"Daimon, what do you think?" Kyo Kusanagi ignored Benimaru Nikaido and looked directly at Goro Daimon.

After thinking for a while, Goro Daimon said, "My idea is also to concede. There's no need to continue fighting. It's better to save our energy for tomorrow's match. Second place or third place may not sound as good as the championship, but it's still a ranking, and we can still fight against other fighters."

“Then I’ll admit defeat.” Kyo Kusanagi laughed, but his eyes were full of fighting spirit. “However, it’s not because I’m afraid. Once I’ve mastered Musou, I’ll fight him again.”

……

(We need to speed things up)

Chapter 714! The Disappearance of Kyo Kusanagi

……

It must be said that, apart from a small minority, most fighters in this world have a pretty good mentality. They can take things in stride and accept defeat gracefully, and they generally don't have any complaints unless their opponent goes too far.

But generally speaking, if they lose in the ring, they lose and they won't say anything. After all, if they can't beat someone, they can't beat them. They can just train hard next time and beat them back.

Therefore, after discussion, the Japanese team chose to concede defeat.

It's quite rare for an entire team to concede without even taking the stage, especially in a world-class competition like this. But no one will say anything. Shen Ye's performance is undeniable; he can defeat his opponent in one move without using his full strength. There's absolutely no need for the others to go up into the ring and get beaten up.

Subsequently, the organizers announced that the God Band had won first place in the winners' bracket.

They also announced that the teams advancing from the loser's bracket will be determined tomorrow.

But everyone knows that the God Band is already the champion, unless a stronger fighter emerges, which is basically impossible at the moment. So tomorrow's competition is just to determine the runner-up and third place.

Next, the first day of competition ended, and the audience left in an orderly manner, but the fighters gathered together and did not leave. In the evening, the organizers prepared a sumptuous banquet, so why not take advantage of it?

After stepping down from the arena, Shen Ye walked towards the Kagura sisters. They were chatting with the psychic warrior team when they saw Shen Ye approaching, and they all tacitly stopped talking.

As Shen Ye approached, Zhen Yuanzhai said with self-deprecation, "Even with my decades of experience, I was fooled. I actually dared to presumptuously take you as my disciple. People will laugh at me if they find out."

Hearing this, Shen Ye shook his head slightly: "I only acquired this power by chance. Compared to the power you obtained through hard work, I can only say that I was lucky."

“Luck is also a part of strength.” Chin Gentsai shook his head and then fell silent.

However, Chin Gentsai fell silent, but Athena hesitated for a moment before speaking.

"Um, junior brother..."

"What's wrong, Senior Sister?" Shen Ye looked at her and asked in confusion.

"It's nothing." Athena shook her head with a bright smile, but behind her back, she gave Kensou a peace sign.

Because the two had made a bet before, Kensou bet that Athena would not respond if she called Shen Ye "Junior Brother" again, but now that she heard Shen Ye respond without any hesitation, Athena was overjoyed.

"Tch..." Kensou curled his lip in disdain, thinking to himself, "He probably has his eye on you..."

But he soon hesitated again, because he felt that the roles should be reversed. Perhaps his junior sister had taken a liking to Shen Ye.

"Hmm, I think I understand what Athena meant earlier now." Kensou nodded in realization, thinking to himself, "These two are really interesting. Is this what they call romance?"

Wow, they really know how to have fun!

Shii Kensou immediately sighed in admiration.

Chatting with the superpowered warrior team was just the beginning. Soon, other teams also came to chat with Shen Ye. At this point, everyone had already assumed that the God Band was the champion team. Saying they came to chat was more like saying they came to get acquainted with him. Anyway, the circle of fighters is only so big, and they would run into each other all the time. It would be good to help each other out if needed in the future.

Fighters are human too; they understand human relationships and social dynamics.

So even the usually stern Heidern, the captain of the Ikari Warriors, had a chat with Shen Ye.

After chatting with Heidern for a while, Kyo Kusanagi arrived. This boy, who was about the same age as the Kagura sisters, was still a high school student, but he spoke very maturely. After offering a few compliments, he left.

Shen Ye chatted with the fighters, and then a lot more people came to find him. This time, they were guests invited by the organizers to watch the competition. These people were all respectable people with status, either shareholders and senior executives of large companies or local political figures. Soon, Shen Ye had a stack of business cards in his hand and received a lot of compliments.

Shortly after, watching the guests leave, Shen Ye casually handed the stack of business cards to Kagura Chizuru. These things were basically useless to him, but very useful to the Kagura Group. Although the Kagura Group was already a leading conglomerate in Japan, it would need the help of these people to expand into other countries...

Next, the group went to the hotel booked by the organizers for dinner.

After dinner, the fighters dispersed, as there was another match the next day and they needed to go back and rest early. Even though the champion had already been decided, having a ranking was still good.

After seeing Mai Shiranui and Shermie off to their car, Shen Ye returned to the shrine with the Kagura sisters and the female tengu.

……

Nothing happened that night, and the next day arrived.

Today is the match to determine the winners from the losers' bracket, so Shen Ye and the Kagura sisters, who had already secured their spots in the championship, naturally sat in the audience.

They could have gone to the fighters' rest area to sit, but since Sharmi and the others hadn't signed up for the competition, Shen Ye figured it would be better for them to watch the match together from the stands.

While snacking and drinking his favorite beverage, Shen Ye's gaze fell on Mai Shiranui and the others, whose opponents this time were the Ikari Warriors.

They were lucky because the Ikari Warriors weren't focused on the match. If they defeated them, the Women Fighters team's ranking would rise another place.

Then Shen Ye looked at the Psychic Warriors team. Just like yesterday, the master and his three disciples were drinking absentmindedly, Kensou, the reincarnation of the steamed bun spirit, was munching on a steamed bun, and only Athena was exercising. This time, their opponents were Team Gold.

Then there are the Fatal Fury team and the Art of Fighting team. The average strength of these two teams is about the same. The upper limit is Ryo Sakazaki and Terry Bogard, while the lower limit is Robert Pattinson and Andy Lau. When it's their turn to take the stage, the match should be the most exciting among the participating teams.

As for the Japanese team, although they surrendered yesterday, they were actually the most favored runner-up team... They were originally the champions, but they met Shen Ye, so they could only compete for second place. Since they had already won two rounds yesterday, they had a bye this round. They will participate in the match draw after the other six teams select three winning teams.

However, after looking around the arena several times, Shen Ye still couldn't find Kyo Kusanagi on the Japanese team, which made him a little curious.

At this moment, Kagura Maki also noticed that the Japanese team seemed to be missing one person. She asked curiously, "Why isn't Kusanagi Kyo here? Did something happen to him?"

Kagura Chizuru asked doubtfully, "Something happened? That can't be right. Maybe there was a traffic jam? I heard he went back to his hometown last night. It's quite a distance from his hometown, and you have to go through several busy main roads to get here."

“Possibly. The traffic in Tokyo is just too bad.” Helena nodded. She had already witnessed the terrible traffic situation when she first came to Tokyo.

Shen Ye said thoughtfully, "But what was Kyo Kusanagi doing back in his hometown last night?"

"Who knows? Maybe he went to see his girlfriend," Kagura Chizuru said with a shrug.

……

(I'm experiencing some writer's block because I'm overthinking the plausibility of the subsequent plot... but I feel it doesn't need to be too plausible, after all, it's an infinite multiverse genre, hehe.)

Chapter 715! The Missing Snow

……

Shen Ye naturally knew that Kyo Kusanagi had a girlfriend, a girl named Yuki, who was also Kyo's classmate.

Speaking of which, Kyo Kusanagi is a good-for-nothing with terrible grades and a penchant for fighting, but his taste in girlfriends is impeccable. He chose one of Orochi's most important sacrifices, the reincarnation of Kushinada-hime, as his girlfriend. It has to be said that this was probably destiny.

After all, the three sacred treasure families, Orochi, the Eight Orochi Warriors, and Kushinada-hime have been entangled with each other for over a thousand years without much change...

It can't be said that nothing has changed. At least now, half of the Eight Orochi no longer want to bear their destiny. Although they have become part of another organization that wants to revive Orochi, they may no longer need Kushinada-hime as a sacrifice.

Thinking this, Shen Ye continued to look at the arena, where the first pair of teams for the day had already taken the stage.

The Women Fighters Team and the Ikari Team.

The starting female fighter is Sayuri, while the starting female fighter for the Ikari Warriors is Clark.

To be honest, whether it was influenced by comics, heard rumors, or read fan fiction, Shen Ye always thought Clark was blind, since he always wore sunglasses, no matter where he went.

During dinner last night, Shen Ye politely offered to show Clark the way when he was alone, which confused Clark, who asked him what he wanted to do.

After Shen Ye revealed his suspicion that the man was blind, the man took off his sunglasses, speechless, and told Shen Ye that he wore sunglasses because of a habit he had developed on the battlefield, which made Shen Ye extremely embarrassed.

So when he saw Clark step onto the stage and solemnly adjust his sunglasses, he started thinking all sorts of random thoughts: "Are those sunglasses your true form? What if they get knocked off later? Are you planning to just admit defeat?"

The result was pretty much what Shen Ye had expected.

After exchanging blows with Sayuri for more than ten rounds, Clark was sent flying by Sayuri's Flying Swallow Kick. His sunglasses were nowhere to be found, and the first thing he did after getting up was to look for them. Once he found them, he raised his hands in surrender.

It wasn't that he couldn't continue fighting, but rather that the arena limited his performance; as a mercenary, he was better suited to life-or-death combat.

However, although he was a mercenary, he was a relatively upright one, after all, he was trained by Haderen, so he couldn't bring himself to hurt a cute little girl like Sayuri. But if the opponent was a man, he would show no mercy.

Ralph and Heidern, who followed, were similar to Clark, but at least they didn't fight too passively. They started with flashy moves and fought back and forth with Sayuri, but then they revealed a weakness and were knocked off the stage by Sayuri, allowing Sayuri to easily achieve a three-on-one victory and receive applause from the audience.

The fighters could tell that the Ikari Warriors weren't really fighting, but the audience couldn't. They only saw a cute teenage girl defeat three men who were much stronger than her, and this kind of underdog victory was exactly what they loved to see.

After the battle between the female fighters team and the Ikari Warriors team, the next match will be between the psychic warriors team and the King team.

However, this was a battle with no suspense whatsoever, because Athena was the starting lineup for the superpowered warrior team, while Master Pan of the Jin family, as the embodiment of justice, was a complete gentleman who would never lay a hand on a woman. The result was self-evident: the Jin team was wiped out by Athena, who defeated three of them in one fell swoop...

Even if Team Gold played seriously, it would be difficult for them to beat Team Superpower Warriors, since their strength is considered to be at the bottom among the eight teams.
