It was evening.

After taking a bath, Shiraki put on a pair of loose trousers and stood barefoot in front of the mirror, carefully drying his hair with a towel.

The next second—

Swish!

Bai Mucheng twisted his waist and pushed off upwards, his left foot pointing skywards, kicking out a split in place with light and flexible movements, creating a gust of wind.

The bandage on his left cheek was then removed, revealing a shallow scar.

"Ugh~~~!"

Bai Mucheng lowered his leg, put his hands on his hips, pouted, looked at himself in the mirror, examined the scars all over his body, and his lips curled into a slight smile.

He has fully recovered and feels excellent; he is ready to keep his appointment tonight.

tonight--

Shiraki Shō VS Honbu Izō.

Furthermore, they didn't fight in the underground arena, but in the park at night!

As for the rules, Shiraki was very familiar with them, as they were derived from those proposed by Mitsuyo Maeda, the "founder of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu":

Both sides go to the agreed location at the same time, wearing their usual clothes, and start taking a walk there, or even eating and drinking.

Finally, the two naturally encountered each other and began their duel!

"..."

Shiraki recalled what happened this afternoon.

After the headquarters explained the rules, Shiraki Cheng was stunned for a moment, then muttered, "Headquarters officer, so you really want to fight me in a 'street fight'..."

However, the headquarters denied it, saying, "Brother Shiraki, your 'street' fighting style is ultimately too modern; it's just a convenient form of 'fighting'."

"What I want to fight you with is neither an athletic competition nor a martial arts sparring match, but a real fight!"

"..."

The imposing presence of the headquarters still resonates around Shiraki Shoji.

Then let's fight, Honbu Izo!

I want to fight you too...

Shiraki put on his shirt and jacket, slipped on his sneakers, said goodbye to his family, and headed straight for the park they had agreed to meet.

……

……

The park where the two challenged each other is located in Taitung District. It is a historic public park famous for its cherry blossoms.

Although it's not cherry blossom season now, there are still quite a few people strolling around here in the evening.

"..."

Shiramu Cheng walked leisurely along the park's main path, his hands in his pockets.

Occasionally, I would take out my phone to take pictures, thinking about bringing my family and friends here for a picnic when the cherry blossoms are in full bloom again.

"The environment is nice, and the air is very fresh."

Shiraki gazed at the setting sun on the horizon, watching the fiery red of the afterglow gradually fade. "So, Mr. Headquarters, where are you...?"

Suddenly, a figure appeared not far away, catching Bai Mucheng's attention.

But the man was not Izou, but a taller, more robust man, over 240cm tall and weighing over 200kg, with short blond hair.

He wore a patterned coat, paired with simple trousers and sneakers.

——【Monster】Jacko Fanma.

He's in this park too!? Is he just strolling around?

Shiraki was somewhat surprised.

Although they were about ten meters apart, the aura emanating from Bai Mucheng also caught Jack's attention, drawing his gaze over.

"...?"

Their eyes met, and Jack was also surprised.

He and Bai Mucheng were old acquaintances, and when he ordered prohibited drugs from Gao Hongye, he would occasionally come to Douhun Martial Arts Hall to pick them up.

So why is Shiraki Cheng here in the park? Is he taking a walk alone?

Jack was puzzled, but he didn't care.

He casually raised his hand, exchanged greetings with Bai Mucheng, and the two passed each other, continuing their stroll in the park.

"..."

Bai Mucheng glanced at Jack's back and felt that something was wrong.

Given Jack Vanma's usual style, is he the kind of person who would take walks in the park?

But after walking a few dozen meters more, before he could figure it out, he looked up again and saw another one—

【Demon】Wu Lei'an.

At this moment, Wu Lei'an, wearing a casual jacket, was also strolling in the park, his eyes flashing with a fierce light as he scanned everything around him.

"……what?"

Wu Lei'an also noticed Bai Mucheng, then looked around but did not see his "sister" Wu Fengshui.

Are you all alone?

Wu Lei'an grinned maliciously and quickly approached Bai Mucheng. His expression clearly showed that he was itching to fight someone.

But then Wu Lei'an thought of something even more interesting, so he tilted his head, spat, and patiently waited.

"Get lost, I'm busy tonight, I'll talk to you later when I have time."

After saying this, Wu Lei'an strode away.

Bai Mucheng was already used to Wu Lei'an's temper, so he didn't care. He was just wondering why Wu Lei'an was also taking a walk in the park.

Wu Lei'an is even less suited to the word "stroll" than Jack Van Ma!

……

……

As Shiramu Cheng admired the scenery, he continued his walk, noticing that the sky was gradually darkening and the surroundings were turning into a deep blue.

"call……!"

The temperature had cooled down considerably, but Bai Mucheng's fighting spirit remained undiminished, even growing more intense. He clenched his fists uncontrollably, transforming them into a desire to strike.

Where is the headquarters hidden?

That said, this landmark public park covers a large area, so the chances of bumping into each other while strolling around are naturally quite small.

Why choose this particular park?

Shiraki was puzzled and wanted to ask the headquarters in person, but he could not see any sign of the headquarters' leader, Izou.

"..."

During the walk, Shiraki Cheng also saw Wu Lei'an and Jack Fanma meet in the distance.

They had met before in the underground arena and were somewhat familiar with each other, but had never formally spoken. Now they had the opportunity to greet each other.

However, the two did not talk for long before parting ways in haste, clearly having more important matters to attend to.

……

……

Shiraki Sei, Jack Fanma, Wu Lei'an —

The three continued to stroll in the park, taking different routes, occasionally bumping into each other and exchanging casual greetings.

After wandering around for a while, bumping into each other several times, and even becoming familiar with the park's routes...

As night falls, the park's streetlights come on.

Gradually, the three of them began to feel that something was wrong.

"..."

Shiraki Sei was the first to stop, hands in his pockets, standing by the park fountain, waiting for Jack Vanma to come along from the other side of the road.

Jack realized something and stepped forward, frowning. "You didn't come here for a walk, but you're not here to fight me either, so..."

Shiraki Cheng let out a long breath and said the name of that man, "—Honbu Izou."

Jack understood instantly.

At the same time, Wu Lei'an also came from another path, veins bulging on his forehead, his expression extremely ferocious.

"I mean, could it be what I'm thinking...?"

despair!

Wu Lei'an stopped and stood next to Bai Mucheng and Jack, the three of them forming a triangle, about two meters apart.

They are all fighters with extremely high combat intelligence.

Therefore, it is easy to guess the current situation and realize just how arrogant the "Honbu Izo" has been.

"~~~~!!"

The moment they realized what had happened, the auras around the three of them twisted and became ferocious, blurring patches of space and filling the air with a suffocating feeling.

Anger? Hatred? Excitement?

...It's not that simple.

But in conclusion, the three of them reached the same conclusion—

Let me vent first!

Swish!
