Super Fighting Tokyo.

Li Haiwang looked at his right hand and found that it had been bandaged.

"A dislocated finger and a slight concussion—it's nothing serious for you. Just go for a check-up later."

Sakurai An was packing up her medicine kit nearby.

Li Haiwang nodded his thanks.

Turning his head, he saw that the Sea King walked straight towards him, clasped his hands in thanks, and bowed.

"That's truly amazing, Lee!"

Retsukai said in a deep voice, "Thank you for your help, which has enabled my friend to get back on his feet."

"……Oh!"

Li Haiwang waved his hand casually, "Is it really okay to say that? I went into battle with the intention of 'killing,' so I don't deserve your thanks!"

"No matter what, I sincerely believe this is the best outcome."

Retsu no Haiwang reached out and pulled Li Haiwang up from the cushion. "Although it's already afternoon, why don't we have lunch together?"

"Have a meal?"

Li Haiwang was stunned for a moment, then turned his head and saw a man and two women who had bought several large bags of ingredients and were calling Li Haiwang over to cook.

Bai Mucheng was overjoyed. "Brother Lie, I'll trouble you to cook!"

Li Haiwang then realized what was happening and couldn't help but laugh, "I've heard that Lie Haiwang is also a good cook."

Retsukai shrugged, neither agreeing nor disagreeing.

……

……

Although it was already afternoon, it didn't stop everyone from having lunch.

After a long time, Bai Mucheng once again experienced the lively atmosphere unique to the Fighting Spirit Martial Arts Hall.

Bai Mucheng, You Sha, Wu Fengshui;

Baki Hanma, Kozue, Retsu Kaioh, Lee Kaioh, Anne Sakurai;

Of course, "Shiba Chiharu," who was in charge of looking after the house, was also kept and entertained.

"..."

With Shiraki Shōwa and Arisa assisting, and Retsu Kaiō in charge of cooking, they quickly prepared a large table of dishes.

Retsu Kaioh was also very meticulous, customizing different medicinal meals for Shiraki Sho and Baki—the two had different injuries.

Eight people sat around in the courtyard, chatting and laughing.

Baki's muscles were still lean, but looking at the pile of dishes in front of him, he couldn't help but swallow hard. "What a feast!"

Retsukaiwang smiled and gestured, "Eat."

Wu Fengshui chuckled from the side, "Lie Qin is so gentle!"

Baki raised an eyebrow. "As expected?"

Bai Mucheng slapped his thigh and laughed loudly, "That goes without saying!"

Retsu Kaioh: "..."

He blushed, turned his head, frowned, and urged, "Hurry up and eat!"

Everyone then began to eat heartily, chatting and laughing all the while, until the large table of delicious food was completely devoured, leaving not a single bite.

……

Among them, the one who ate the most was Baki Hanma.

His exhausted, thin body was bulging from eating, making the boy exclaim with satisfaction, "I'm full~~~~"

Upon hearing this, Retsu Kaioh stood up. "You've finished eating, right? Then it's time for dessert."

Baki raised an eyebrow. "I'll eat whatever you bring."

Retsu Kaioh went to the kitchen, brought back a large bucket of water, about ten liters in total, and placed it in front of Baki. "These ten liters of water are the water you need right now."

Baki stared in disbelief. "Ten liters? How can anyone finish that?"

"Of course you can't just drink it like that."

Retsukai took out another jar containing powder. "This is fructose, a pure sweetener extracted from fruit, about 4 kg."

"The quantity is a bit large, but the absorption efficiency is also the highest."

Retsukai poured fructose into the water, saying, "Even though the poison has been neutralized, your body is far from fully recovered and needs to be replenished with these."

"I should have been consuming protein or starch, but it's better to do it faster."

As Lie Haiwang spoke, he stirred the water with his hand, causing all the fructose to dissolve into it. "This 14kg of sugar water will cause a miracle!"

"..."

Baki held the bucket of sugar water, took a deep breath, and then gulped it down.

The others watching couldn't help but swallow hard.

Glug, glug, glug...

The sugar water rushed into my stomach.

The boy's body, ravaged by the deadly poison, had weakened to its limit.

The burden from the previous battles has depleted the body's last energy reserves—glycogen in the liver.

In addition, the boy's muscle cells were completely destroyed due to constant overuse during battles.

Those cells swore revenge!

If I encounter the same situation again in the future, I must rely on my own strength to overcome the difficulties!

As a result, the boy's body is undergoing an unprecedented "super recovery"!!

……

……

After drinking the sugar water, Baki rested his head on Kouei's lap and lay down on the lawn in the courtyard of the Fighting Spirit Martial Arts Hall, where he fell asleep peacefully.

The rest of the group cleaned up their dishes and sat in the courtyard, drinking tea and chatting.

Looking at the sleeping Baki, Li Haiwang sighed to everyone, "The toxicity of Poison Hand has reversed; that's an undeniable fact."

He tried to analyze: "Yin and Yang—two kinds of toxins—met in that boy's body."

"In addition, there is a certain anesthetic secreted by the brain due to fighting spirit, and the feeling of happiness that comes from crying for his lover."

"And even the smell of battle, or more..."

"All these substances came into contact with each other in the boy's body, and a chemical reaction was triggered in an instant."

Li Haiwang looked up at the sky and said, "I have practiced the art of poison for many years, and this is the first time I have ever seen such a phenomenon."

Upon hearing this, Shiraki Sei and Retsukai exchanged a smile.

It feels pretty good to hear your friend being praised.

But actually, Li Haiwang still had some things to say.

There is such a powerful young man, and...

Lee Hae-wang's gaze shifted, first looking at Hanma Baki, then back at Retsu Hae-wang, and the "Shiraki Sho" beside him.

and--

Retsu Kaioh is stronger than "rumors in the martial arts world" suggest!

Furthermore, this person named Shiraki Sei also has a good appearance, so he must be very powerful!

Even looking around, the entire "Fighting Soul Martial Arts Hall," though a modern building, exudes a powerful aura that is no less than that of an old arena!

amazing……

Li Haiwang silently drank his tea.

The next second—

Swish!

Bai Mucheng suddenly stood up, startling Li Haiwang, who thought the other party was about to do something.

As a result, Shiraki Cheng went to collect Wu Zhili's gifts to distribute to everyone, saving him the trouble of going to find Retsukai-oh and Shiba Chiharu later.

All guests are welcome, and Li Haiwang naturally received a special candy gift box as well.

"...Thank you."

Li Haiwang could not refuse such hospitality, so he thanked him and accepted the gift, giving him a business card in return and promising to treat him to a meal in the future.

……

……

Time passed by, and dusk fell.

As everyone stayed in the courtyard, they suddenly felt that the air around them was a bit "humid," as if a high-powered humidifier had been turned on.

"what?"

Everyone turned around and discovered that the source of the dampness was Baki Hanma, who was still sleeping.

At this moment, the boy's whole body was steaming, as if his whole body was "boiling," as if some kind of wonderful change had occurred.

Retsukai looked intently and thought, "He's about to awaken."

"Awakening...?"

Li Haiwang was puzzled by the mystery, but it was clear that Baki Hanma's muscles had gradually recovered and were no longer withered and thin, like a fully inflated balloon.

Sturdy, large, and as strong as steel, yet noticeably soft, it is incredibly resilient, making it the perfect body for combat!

"..."

Hanma Rage opened his eyes and could see Koji's face, then exhaled a breath of hot air.
