King of Fighters, I became Mai Shiranui's lifelong enemy

Kusanagi Retsu exploded again!

"A member of the Kusanagi clan is taking on such a lowly job?!!"

A ball of fire exploded from his body with a "bang", the bricks on the ground exploded, the green belt was set on fire, and the light bulbs on the roadside exploded directly.

Passersby are no longer surprised by this scene.

They shouted, "Run, the fighters are going to fight again!" and left the place, looking at Kyo Kusanagi and the other from afar.

Kyo Kusanagi helplessly looked at his grandfather who was like a firecracker that could explode at any time.

He first put out the fire, then turned back and explained:

"My cousin and the Yagami family debuted as idols. They are quite popular among young, middle-aged and elderly people. They are from SNK company. I forgot to mention that SNK company is Wu..."

Before he could finish his words, a man dressed as a reporter appeared on the big screen and began broadcasting the news.

"According to insiders, the current patriarch of the Kusanagi family, previously embroiled in international conflict, is a brutal and reckless thug, using only his fists and acting like a street thug, devoid of the common sense of human interaction. Over twenty years old, he remains a high school student, failing every exam, yet he bullies the school, using the power of the Kusanagi family to coerce the principal into keeping him in the first year for five years."

"Kyo Kusanagi has close ties with social outcasts outside the school. His hobby is arson, and he frequently engages in fights for fun, using the pretext of participating in KOF tournaments to bully the weak. He once fought with a "Shamatte" youth outside an arcade, leaving him hospitalized with bloody injuries. The two men set fire to an entire street. Neither the school nor the government has taken any disciplinary action against Kusanagi to date."

"Every delinquent teenager has a traumatic childhood. According to reliable sources, Kyo Kusanagi's father, the former head of the Kusanagi family, Kusanagi Shibafune, beat Kyo Kusanagi since childhood. He also liked to wear bizarre JK Lolita clothing. Whether this childhood trauma led to his mental distortion remains unknown."

"On a daily basis, this noble young master of the Kusanagi family enjoys socializing with people from society and takes pride in beating the elderly. When he is stopped, he shows no shame and instead threatens the person who broke the news. The following is a video recording of the incident."

The next scene is a precious video of three young strong men beating an old man in a dim small room.

Kyo Kusanagi could tell at a glance that this was the scene Wu Ji had recorded with the DV camera!

The key is that the image has been specially processed!

[I...hit someone! ...My father is Kusanagi Shibafu! Do you know Kusanagi Shibafu? He's from the Kusanagi family!]

[Huh? My main job? Beating people up is my main job! I'm... a... master, you know?!]

[My original family...my father also beat me often...but it's okay, I beat him back when I grew up!]

[Hey! Put down the DV! ...You want to get beaten up? Take my special move!]

Afterwards, the picture shook violently, and the person fell to the ground, staggering as he watched a ball of fire rushing towards him.

"After our reporter captured this precious moment, he was severely beaten by Kusanagi Kyo, and no new information has been received since then."

“Let us honor this unsung hero!”

......

Kyo Kusanagi felt that there was something wrong with the way his grandfather looked at him.

Chapter 181 Grandfather and Grandson Are Different

"It's all because of that guy Wu Ji!"

"It was Wu Ji who made my cousin become an idol, and it was also Wu Ji who tricked me into saying those words before the fight!"

"And the audio and video from that video clip were definitely edited! That's not what I originally said!"

Kyo Kusanagi was in tears, with two big bumps on his head from his grandfather's iron fists, and he complained with gritted teeth.

"Take it out of context! Yes, that's what he said! He's deliberately smearing the image of my Kusanagi family!"

He could resist, but that was unlikely.

The news has already criticized him as a bully who likes to pick on the elderly and the weak. If the scene of him fighting with Kusanagi Rei in the street is recorded again, then the fake will become real.

When a grandson is like this, the grandfather only needs to think about how to enjoy the beating, but when a grandson is like this, there are many things to consider.

"Hmph! I will personally punish that Wu Ji!"

Kusanagi Retsu let out two heavy breaths from his nostrils. After punching him a few times, he still wasn't satisfied, so he grabbed his grandson's ear.

"Let's not talk about anything else for now! You've been in high school for five years and still haven't graduated? You're still in the first year?"

The old man's eyes widened in anger. "Tell me! Look into my eyes! Tell me if it's true! You shameless person with only a junior high school diploma!"

Kyo Kusanagi: “…”

Everything else can be blamed on Wu Ji, but this is the only thing he cannot refute at all.

If he is pushed hard enough, he can defeat a strong enemy with explosive power, but no matter how hard he is pushed, he cannot solve math problems.

I could only turn my head guiltily to avoid my grandfather's eyes, muttering softly: "Learning, learning, is it important? For us fighters, as long as we can fight, isn't that enough..."

"Can you fight?" Kusanagi Rei laughed in anger, raising his hand and slapping: "If you, my grandson, are truly invincible, how could you be beaten to death by the Orochi clan?"

Just as the slap was about to fall, the old man's heart suddenly shook, and he sensed a monstrous evil aura erupting from afar.

"Is this a storm?!"

He turned his head in surprise and looked towards the distant mountains and forests.

Kusanagi Kyo also felt the same.

The grandfather and grandson turned their heads at the same time, only to see the clouds and winds in the distant forests changing color. A violent tornado uprooted the towering ancient trees, and its earth-shattering power was terrifying.

"This direction is... the place where the Great Snake was sealed, the Kagura family's shrine!!!"

The evil power of the snake was released without any disguise, and there seemed to be another familiar power mixed in.

"Yagami's Blue Flame! It's the Yagami clan who are fighting Baofeng!"

"Oh no! Storm Goenitz is attacking the sealed area. Kagura and Yagami are working together to repel the enemy. Quick! Support them!"

Kusanagi Rei immediately gave up his plan to settle accounts with that guy named Wu Ji.

Nothing is more important than fighting against the Orochi clan. The only one missing from the three sacred families is the Kusanagi clan. A strong sense of mission prompts Kusanagi Retsu to rush to the battle scene.

Kyo Kusanagi glanced at the screen with a grim expression. The well-dressed host on the screen continued to dig deep into the dark shadow of his Kusanagi family. He had begun to publicize to the public the unfair impact that his aristocratic family, a thousand-year-old prestigious family, had on ordinary people, and had shifted all the social contradictions that had emerged in recent years onto him.

Coupled with the Kusanagi Shibafune incident last year, the Kusanagi family might be in danger.

His brain was not strong enough to support him to figure out the reason immediately, but he instinctively felt a sense of crisis.

But the storm of the Great Snake Clan is right in front of us. No matter what, this is the most important thing.

Kyo Kusanagi gritted his teeth, turned around and rushed in the direction where his grandfather was leaving.

The host on the big screen continued to question in a serious and infectious tone:

"The thousand-year-old Kusanagi clan, in the name of antiquity, practices monopoly, gradually eroding the living space of ordinary people!"

"They call themselves 'Guardians', and based on a myth, they fabricate an unbreakable lie to establish themselves as a superior class. They occupy countless acres in the heart of Tokyo, using them as ancestral halls."

"Where's the big snake? What Kusanagi sword? It's just an excuse for them to seek benefits, a token to absolve themselves of guilt!"

"Just think about it. Their clan's young masters can beat up the elderly and set fires in the streets without restraint. Their young ladies can drive recklessly and hit people without bearing any legal consequences. Their clan leaders can disregard the laws of other countries and instigate wars between nations."

"Dear audience, this is not nostalgia, this is not inheritance—this is the most shameless class oppression of this century!"

"One built on lies—oppression!"

......

Kusanagi Retsu and Kusanagi Kyo rushed over and saw the trees blown down by the whirlwind and the forest fire ignited by the strange purple flame.

There were traces of their battle everywhere, but Baofeng and Iori Yagami were nowhere to be found.

"Are we late?"

"It looks like the fight is over anyway."

Kyo Kusanagi picked up a broken wooden stake and brushed off the remaining purple flames on it.

They rushed over immediately after sensing the fighting atmosphere, but the distance was too far, and by the time the two of them arrived, everything was over.

Kusanagi Retsu's face was tense, and he said nothing as he hurried towards the shrine.

Fortunately, fortunately he saw a cool woman in traditional shrine maiden clothing standing at the entrance of the shrine, quietly sweeping the fallen leaves at the entrance.

"...Kusanagi?"

Kagura Chizuru looked up and saw Kusanagi Rei, who was blazing with flames.

She had seen Kusanagi Retsu in the Eight-foot Mirror and knew that this old man was a patriarch of the Kusanagi family.

"Oh, that's great! The shrine maiden of the Kagura family has not been killed by the storm." Kusanagi Retsu patted his chest in relief.

What he feared most was that the storm had killed the heir of the Kagura family, and now the Kusanagi sword, which could be used to resurrect the recently dead, had been taken away by outsiders. Once the heirs of the three major families were cut off, the consequences would be unimaginable.

Kagura Chizuru frowned slightly, understanding the other party's intention, and explained: "Thank you for your concern, Kusanagi family senior. Storm Goenitz has left."

"They left. Were they forced away by you and the Yagami family?" Kusanagi Rei recalled the traces of battle he saw when he came here.

Kagura Chizuru shook her head: "I invited another expert to come and help."

"Master?"

Kusanagi Retsu looked suspicious.

It is really a wonder that there is a master in this world who can compete with the Great Snake Clan, and he is not from the Three Sacred Artifacts Family.

Suddenly, he saw the shrine maiden from the Kagura family looking behind him with a distressed expression.

"Ok?"

Only then did Kusanagi Retsu feel something strange behind him. He turned around and found that there was a figure holding a black wooden stick hanging above his head.

He felt a chill down his spine. When did this person appear behind him? He didn't even notice it.

If he had attacked me just now... the consequences would be unimaginable!

The old man took several steps back in an instant, sweat dripping from his face. He angrily asked, "What are you doing?"

"What?"

Wu Ji looked at the black thing on the long stick in his hand and said as a matter of course, "Can't you see it? It's a roasted sweet potato."

Kusanagi Retsu twitched his lips: "Roasted... roasted sweet potatoes?"

"Yes, you old forest fireman, you are all covered in fire when you come here, so don't waste it, warm yourself up for me. In a moment..."

A heartbroken expression appeared on his face, and he said resolutely, "At worst, I'll give you a small piece later, and it'll be used as firewood!"

He had just found some wild sweet potatoes behind the shrine with great difficulty. He dug out a piece and prepared to roast it and eat some himself, and then stuffed Kagura Chizuru's little mouth with the sticky sweet potatoes.

If I want to share it with this old man, I will have to eat less myself.

"..."

Kusanagi Retsu looked deeply at this mysterious young man, and thinking of the strength he had revealed, his eyes were deep as if he was thinking about something.

Suddenly burst into laughter.

"Hahaha! Little brother, why bother with roasting sweet potatoes? Just tell me!"

A red flame rose from his palm. He controlled the heat skillfully and roasted the sweet potatoes for Wu Ji at just the right temperature.

"When I was in seclusion in the mountains, I often roasted things over flames. I gained experience with roasting things more often."

"Hmph... Actually, roasting sweet potatoes is the same as practicing martial arts."

"The fire was too strong, the outside was burnt, but the inside was still raw - just like those impatient fools, who have fancy moves but a mess of basic skills."

"The fire's too small? It's still hard after roasting it for half a day. What a waste of time!" He snorted coldly, "It's like those timid warriors who never dare to throw a real punch in their entire lives."

He retracted his five fingers, the flame went out, and the sweet potato fell steadily into his palm.

With a light pinch of his fingertips, the hot potato flesh flowed out like lava, with a sweet aroma, and was handed to Wu Ji.

"Come on, little brother. Come to me next time if you want to eat."

Wu Ji took the hot sweet potato and took a bite without hesitation.

"You're not bad, old man. Last time I asked someone to borrow a fire, he refused to lend it to me. He was so stingy, huh~"

Chapter 182 Family Destruction

"Young brother, at such a young age, has already reached the pinnacle of cultivation. This truly puts an old man like me to shame. Alas, it's even more disappointing to think of my worthless son and grandson being bullied and having the family heirloom stolen due to their lack of strength."

Seeing Wu Ji's impressive strength, Kusanagi Retsu was interested in striking up a conversation and making friends. "My three Sacred Treasure families are all of the same bloodline. It's truly admirable that you, little brother, are able to help the Kagura family defeat such a formidable enemy. I wonder what your relationship is with the Kagura family?"

Kagura Chizuru was about to speak when Wu Ji suddenly became solemn and said proudly with his head held high and chest puffed out:

"I am the son-in-law of the Kagura family. Together with Miss Kagura Chizuru, I am responsible for continuing the Kagura family's legacy!"
