I teach judo in Tokyo.

"OK, OK, let's go then..." Mutba revealed a ferocious smile, raising both fists and assuming a boxing stance.

The two extraordinary individuals smiled at each other as they faced each other.

next second.

"Oh!"

Two thick right fists collided violently!

A terrifying, monstrous force surged forth!

Mutba staggered back several steps, a look of astonishment on his face.

"Such terrifying power! Are you some kind of humanoid elephant?"

"No, I am a humanoid Tyrannosaurus Rex!" Sosuke laughed wildly.

Above his head, out of his sight, the words "Martial Arts" and "Madman" shone brightly.

He strode forward and arrived in front of Mutba in an instant.

Jump up – spinning kick!

Dragon Tail Kick!!!

'Rushing to short sell is hardly a good strategy!'

Mutba, facing Sosuke's rapid attacks, did not act like a blind man at all.

He raised his fist and precisely blocked Sosuke's spinning kick in mid-air.

Then, while Sosuke is suspended in mid-air, he should deliver a powerful counterattack.

However, Sosuke's Dragon Tail Kick contained an incredible, heavy shockwave that slowed Mutba's counterattack.

In that brief moment of hesitation, Sousuke's left jab struck Mutba's cheek hard.

Step by step, step by step.

Seizing the initiative, Sousuke charged forward, using both hands and legs in combination to unleash a fierce and rapid attack on the staggering Mutba!

Jab, hook, straight punch, lunge, thrust punch!

Low sweep, high kick, side kick, front kick!

Mutba gritted his teeth and, after being hit several times by Sousuke, finally managed to regain his defensive stance, blocking Sousuke's random combination attacks that flowed like water at will.

However, the power unleashed by Sousuke, who was laughing wildly and attacking madly, was truly terrifying.

Even in pursuit of speed and rhythm, Mutba's defense became clumsy and ineffective!

Sosuke's strength seemed endless and inexhaustible. He maintained this increasingly rapid pace to continue suppressing his opponent. If this momentum continued, Mutba's stance would soon be broken again.

However, just as his suppression was getting stronger, a sudden tremor ran through his heart.

"Den!"

In the next instant, Sosuke quickly abandoned his attack and withdrew his fist to defend.

"puff!"

With a muffled thud, Sousuke staggered back two steps, looking at his forearm.

Two deep finger marks were imprinted on the skin of his forearm, so deep that they almost pierced through!

If he hadn't used "Diamond Form: Indestructible" in that split second of defense, tensing all his muscles and making them as hard as metal, his forearm would be ruined by now.

Looking up again, Mutba wiped the blood from his face with his left fist, slowly withdrew his two raised fingers with his right hand, and revealed a bloody smile: "Not only is he very strong, but his muscles are also incredibly strong. You're amazing!"

"Each each other!"

Sosuke took a deep breath and assumed a boxing stance once again.

The two faced off for a few more seconds.

"Shh!"

Simultaneous advance!

The figures of the two men were almost blurred by the dim lights inside the factory.

The next instant, they were pressed close together again!

This time, Sosuke, who was on guard against Mutba's finger-poke thrusts, did not launch a reckless attack.

Mutba stopped focusing solely on defense and began a rapid back-and-forth exchange of attacks with Sousuke.

Attack, block, deflect, dodge.

Punch, kick, shoulder strike, elbow strike.

Fists and feet clashed, bodies clashed!

Another endless barrage of attacks!

If any outsiders were fortunate enough to witness the duel between the two, they would surely be awestruck by the extraordinary scene.

The terrifying speed and power of their punches, and their strong bodies capable of withstanding each other's terrifying attacks.

That's a beast!

It's a demon!

It's a ghost!

In short, it's definitely not human!

"Hahahaha! That's so satisfying!"

"Ah, that feels so good! It really feels so good!"

Unlike the silent Mutba, Sosuke was full of madness and didn't care that the disordered aura might affect his power. He even laughed wildly while attacking.

At this moment, up until now, he has deliberately refrained from using "Liberation," which could greatly enhance his physical functions.

Aside from the initial "Dragon Tail Kick," he didn't use any other SSR-level techniques that defied common sense.

Instead, it was the first time he had faced a "superb" level expert and was seriously using his own fighting skills to clash with his opponent.

This feeling, this clash of flesh and blood, this battle where both sides are wholeheartedly engaged in a contest of skill.

He became incredibly obsessed with it!

Although both his strong physique and high-level protective skills were essentially given to him by the system.

However, it is different from those terrifying system techniques.

The system only provided him with his physique and fighting skills; it wouldn't completely replace him like a "one-click macro."

Every punch, every kick, every move, every stance he made was executed entirely according to his own will.

This is a battle that truly belongs to him!

Moreover, Sosuke had already discovered another place that surprised him.

That is when his unarmed self-defense skill level exceeds "30"—

He no longer needs the system to manage his SR-level skills; he can use them on his own!

Whether it's "Cat Willow" or "Mountain Mist", the Manipulating Flow Form or the Vajra Form.

Or it could be a sword technique like "Musouken," "Sandan-to," "Tsubame-ga" or "Kagami-jutsu."

When his abilities reached the "ultimate level", he had already digested the principles of these SR-level skills and could use them at will.

When attacking and deflecting force, his strength contains the strange flow of power of the "Manipulating Flow Form" that interferes with the direction of force.

When his body is taking damage, his body tenses instantly, greatly reducing the damage received by adopting the "Diamond Form".

This feeling of complete control and confidence completely captivated him!

However, his opponent Mutba was in a bit of a bind.

In the endless back-and-forth between the two, Mutba keenly noticed that Sosuke's punches and kicks were getting heavier and heavier.

The balance of power, which was originally evenly matched, has once again tilted in favor of Atobe Sousuke.

This gradually forced him to switch from offense to defense again!

......

Chapter 291 An Unexpected Ending

'What a formidable kid, he's only eighteen years old...'

Mutba struggled to fend off the attacks, his mind racing.

He wasn't a martial artist devoted to martial arts; he was a mercenary.

He would analyze the situation constantly during the battle.

If you find yourself at a disadvantage, or even if you win, you are seriously injured, and the disadvantages outweigh the advantages.

He will quickly adjust his playing style.

Generally, there are two directions for adjusting this playing style.

First, trade injury for life—risk minor injury, then use your deadly "heart piercing" technique to kill the enemy in one fell swoop.

The second is...

Mutba made up his mind and then switched from defense to offense in an instant!

Just then, Sosuke threw a right hook punch.

Instead of retreating, Mutba advanced, symbolically blocking with his left hand, and charged into Sosuke's close range as he met Sosuke's swing punch. Then, he raised two fingers and viciously stabbed them towards Sosuke's eyes.

When Sousuke saw Mutba using a strategy of trading blows, he burst into wild laughter.

As he thrust at Mutba, his head merely tilted slightly, and his right hook suddenly accelerated!

"boom!"

A powerful, explosive blow slammed into Mutba's left arm!

The contact between the fist and the forearm muscles created a small ripple of flesh.

The immense impact caused Mutba's body to tilt, and his right-hand thrust was deflected sharply, narrowly missing Sousuke's face.

The offensive was thwarted in an instant!

Mutba immediately steadied himself and adjusted his posture.

But then Sosuke closed in again, his feet swaying left and right with alternating steps, and his left fist rained down a series of jabs on Mutba.

Mutba struggled to maintain his stance, but felt that Sousuke's rapid jabs, which normal people could only use to harass, were surprisingly heavy in power.

"Puff puff puff puff..."

A series of high-speed jabs pounded his arm, producing a dense, muffled thud.

It was like countless spears thrusting at a shield.

Mutba's forearms were visibly red and swollen.

This won't do!

Mutba gritted his teeth, realizing that if this continued, his arms would be destroyed before he could break the deadlock.

The next second, he sidestepped and dodged, then pulled back and struck with his left fist.

Sosuke suddenly changed his footwork, dodging and diving forward in sync, just in time to let Mutba's heavy punch pass by his ear.

Immediately afterwards, he gathered his strength at his waist and threw a heavy uppercut with his left fist!

The blow landed squarely on Mutba's liver.

Mutba was thrown backward by the blow, and intense, unbearable pain spread throughout his body.

Liver-Exploding Fist!

Sosuke, having gained the upper hand, pressed on again.

However, Mutba, who seemed to be collapsing just a second ago, suddenly surged forward the next second.

He was a mercenary, not a martial artist; the fighting techniques he practiced were a combination of various schools of thought and practical combat skills.
