Super Fighting Tokyo.

boom!

A muffled thud, followed by a wail.

"it hurts!"

The one groaning was the leader of the thugs. He punched Bai Mucheng in the chest, and it felt like hitting a rock. His wrist was numb from the impact!

He raised his leg and kicked Bai Mucheng again, but Bai Mucheng didn't move an inch. Instead, he himself couldn't stop himself from falling backward and almost fell to the ground.

"Don't hit people directly, it will hurt a lot..."

Shiraki stroked his chin. "In short, it's like this: facing a physical difference like yours and mine, how would you, the weaker one, fight?"

"..."

Without hesitation, the leader of the thugs gave the answer.

run away!

"Oh my god!"

He exclaimed in surprise, turned around and ran away, with his remaining henchmen following closely behind their leader, disappearing in a flash.

Shiramu Cheng: "..."

Shiramu Cheng: "Hmm..."

The answer given by the ringleader, upon closer examination, makes a lot of sense.

When ordinary people encounter polar bears or African elephants, their first reaction is to run away. No "normal natural creature" would actively challenge an enemy that is physically stronger than itself.

Knowing full well that they will be beaten, or even that their lives may be in danger, they still take the initiative to face it—only "outliers" like fighters would do such a bizarre thing.

However, to be fair, the special training these past few days has indeed been effective. Although the time has been short and the progress has not been significant, Shiraki Cheng can feel that he has indeed become more agile and stronger.

"call--!"

Shiraki took a deep breath and decided to go explore other places.

Suddenly, the sound of a motorcycle engine came from afar, growing louder as it approached.

Bai Mucheng turned his head and saw that it was a petty thug who had just escaped, who had called over a dozen armed thugs, wanting to get back at Bai Mucheng for his lost face.

Want to fight?

It doesn't seem to be very useful...

Bai Mucheng leaned against the wall, lost in thought, while the dozen or so thugs surrounded him.

The ringleader who had fled earlier stepped forward, brandishing a dagger and gesturing menacingly at Bai Mucheng's stomach.

"Hey buddy, do you have a metal plate or something in your chest? It really hurts when you get hit!"

Seeing that Bai Mucheng did not intend to reply, the leader of the thugs became anxious and angry, and stabbed Bai Mucheng in the thigh with a knife.

But the next second—

Swish!

The leader of the thugs only saw a flash before his eyes, and then he saw Bai Mucheng leap up, easily dodging his knife, and then land steadily, his movements were effortless.

"..."

Upon seeing this, the leader of the thugs broke out in a cold sweat, sensing something was wrong with the person in front of him, and was momentarily at a loss.

Just as the situation reached a stalemate, a loud shout broke the awkward atmosphere.

"I—speak—! You little rascals, what are you doing gathered here! Don't you know this area is my territory?!"

Everyone turned to look and saw a rather "exaggerated" man on the bridge above them.

Tall and lean, dressed in a special forces uniform with bandages on his calves and waist, he was raising his chin and smoking a cigarette, looking every bit the delinquent among delinquents.

The thugs recognized the man.

That person was none other than the infamous Special Forces Captain, Shiba Chien-chun, a super biker gang member known for his fighting skills!

Shiraki Sei also recognized him.

After the death row inmates' intrusion, Kaoru Hanayama's Hanayama Group increased street patrols in an attempt to find the intruders.

As a result, members of the Huashan Group frequently appeared in various parts of the streets near the Douhun Martial Arts Hall.

The special operations captain, Shiba Chiharu, had always idolized Hanayama Kaoru, so he often came over to help out, taking charge of patrolling and reconnaissance work in the surrounding area.

After a while, and through Kizaki's introduction, he got to know Shiraki.

Occasionally, Chiharu would eat snacks with Arisa. Although it was Arisa's invitation, Chiharu, who valued kindness and righteousness, simply couldn't refuse.

"You little rascals, don't use knives in a fight, it's utterly shameful!"

Chai Qianchun leaped off the three-meter-high bridge, landing on his feet without any cushioning. The impact sent shivers down his spine, but the sheer force of his leap helped him recover.

He kicked the ringleader away and yelled, "Get lost! Want to spend a few weeks in the hospital?!"

"..."

The ringleader finally found an opportunity to escape with the others for the second time, secretly vowing never to come back to this wretched bridge again.

"Sorry, Brother Bai Mu, the boss told me to keep an eye on the troublemakers around here, but I didn't expect there to be some who still don't listen."

The boss—that is, Huashan Xun.

Bai Mucheng waved his hand to indicate that it was alright, and then asked Chai Qianchun, "If it were you, and you encountered an opponent who was physically stronger than you, how would you fight?"

"……what?"

Shiba Inu hadn't expected Shiramu Sei to ask that, and without much thought, immediately replied:

"Of course we'll keep fighting! Show some spirit! Even if it's that world heavyweight champion—Iron Tyson—I'll still go up and punch him. That's what a real fight is all about!"

"..."

Upon hearing Chai Qianchun's reply, Bai Mucheng lowered his head and pondered for a long time, when suddenly he vaguely grasped a certain feeling.

Although the specifics are still unclear, it's still better than the previous complete lack of clues.

"Great, fantastic!"

Bai Mucheng's eyes lit up, and he put his hands on Chai Qianchun's shoulders, laughing loudly, "You're amazing, Brother Qianchun!"

Shiba Chiharu: "..."

Shiba Chiharu: "Ah, really? Haha..."

He blushed a little from the compliment.

……

……

Was it a coincidence? A premonition? Or synchronicity? Or did the doctor really accurately predict Bai Mucheng's recovery progress?

In short, Shiraki received a message from Kou Momiji that evening.

The match is scheduled for the night two days from now.

Place--

Tokyo Dome Underground Arena!

Chapter 141 The Holy Land of Martial Arts!

Two days later, on the day of the match.

As dusk fell, the sky began to darken, turning the air into a tranquil, serene blue.

A black classic luxury sedan was parked in front of the Douhun Martial Arts Hall courtyard, having been waiting there for some time.

After taking a shower and packing his backpack, Shiraki turned to look inside—Ayusa had just finished exercising and was doing elastic stretching.

Noticing Shiraki's gaze, Yusa waved, as if saying goodbye to her older brother.

"Hmm, not giving any instructions or anything? I guess it's just a habit..."

Bai Mucheng shook his head.

Since Yusa didn't say she wanted to go watch the game, Shiraki Cheng naturally wouldn't force her. He casually said, "Get some rest," and then turned and left.

We got into the car and headed straight for "Shuidobashi".

……

……

Shiramu Chengqian had just left, about five minutes later.

Wu Fengshui then rode her motorcycle to the entrance of the Douhun Martial Arts Hall and honked the horn twice.

Yusa grabbed her backpack, which was full of snacks and drinks, rushed out of the room in a few steps, locked the door, and jumped onto the back of the motorcycle.

"Alas!"

The two girls raised their hands and shouted.

In fact, the two of them had already decided to go and watch the game, so there was no need to ask Bai Mucheng's opinion. Besides, it wouldn't matter if Bai Mucheng refused.

After all, it's not as fun as sneaking over by deliberately following someone.

This competition involves neither yakuza nor any conflicts of interest, so the viewing experience is naturally very pleasant.

Waaah—!

Wu Fengshui twisted the accelerator, his black-and-white eyes lighting up as he grinned and said, "Let's go, to the waterway bridge!"

……

……

In a luxury car.

Accompanying Shiraki Cheng were not only the driver who was picking him up and dropping him off, but also Yuji Dobu—who was sitting side by side with Shiraki Cheng in the back of the car.
