I teach judo in Tokyo.

These three muscular men, whether online or offline, have audience popularity second only to the three female fighters, but significantly higher than the rest of the strong fighters.

...That's getting off topic...

Atobe Sousuke stood silently in the ring amidst the cheers of his many fans.

He mentally estimated that he would likely encounter some formidable opponents soon.

Perhaps it was because the thirty-two champions invited by the Luca Group were simply too strong.

Seven days have passed since December 21st. Although the overall quality of the challengers has gradually improved each day, no champion has been defeated or replaced.

However, the second stage of the "defense tournament" lasts for a total of ten days, and it has now reached its eighth day. Including today, there are only three days left to challenge.

Those "true powerhouses" who had been secretly observing these champions already had a pretty good idea of ​​what was going on.

If they don't show up and take on the challenge soon, they'll really have no chance to compete.

The result, of course, was as he expected.

After taking care of the first two weaklings, his real challenger for the night came on stage.

Takashi Chiba

[Occupation: Martial Arts Fighter, Stage Actor]

[Height 179cm, Weight 78kg]

[Main competitions participated in: Deathmatch (Honorary Deathmatch) 42 wins, 7 losses, 24 KOs]

The data was projected and flashed above the arena.

Sousuke's final opponent tonight, wearing a cape and with his head tucked into the hood, leaped onto the ring with remarkable agility.

"Sousuke Atobe, hello. I'm the one who's going to defeat you tonight."

The man's face was hidden in the shadow of his hood, and his voice carried a hint of mockery.

"Oh?" Sosuke's eyes flickered slightly as he quietly looked at the other person's panel, a relaxed smile on his face. "Unfortunately, you're not the first person to say that to me. Most of the people who said the same thing to you before are now lying in the hospital."

Chiba Takashi held up a finger and waved it: "You should be able to tell that I'm not on the same level as those people in front of me."

“Hmm…it is indeed quite different. If those people before you were nothing, then you…” Sousuke tilted his head, first pointing with his little finger, then replacing it with his ring finger when referring to Chiba Takashi.

"You'd be considered a small to medium-sized business, right?"

Chiba Takashi paused slightly, and a slightly mocking voice came from under his hood: "Not bad, your confidence is commendable. Your ability to defeat someone at Adam's level is also quite respectable."

"However... you've revealed too much."

With that, Takashi Chiba pulled down his hood and then threw off his cloak.

As his appearance was revealed to the crowd, it immediately caused an uproar.

The face beneath Chiba Takashi's cloak bore a striking resemblance to Atobe Sousuke, measuring a staggering 90%!

Seeing this, Sosuke frowned.

Anyone would feel annoyed to see someone else create a face that is "almost identical to their own".

As Chiba Takashi threw off his cape, the ring announcer's voice immediately came through the speakers!

"Wow! The contestant, Chiba Takashi, looks remarkably similar to the champion, Atobe Sousuke. Is it some kind of special makeup technique?"

While making light of the situation, he gestured to the audience that they could start placing bets.

Just as the two players' winning points were rapidly increasing due to the audience's betting,

With the appearance of Atobe Sousuke, Chiba Takashi slowly adopted a pose that was extremely familiar to the audience of the No. 7 ring.

The stance is a horse stance, with the left hand raised in front of the chest and the right hand clenched into a fist at the waist.

This was the stance that Sousuke used most often in the ring during this period.

At this moment, Chiba Takashi was exactly the same as Sousuke in terms of appearance, temperament, physique, and even demeanor!

The audience below the stage immediately became excited, and the constant whispers made the scene buzz.

Are they twin brothers?

"It seems to be this master, Chiba Takashi. He's a true imitation expert, and the imitation is spot on!"

"Yes, they look like they were made from the same mold!"

"Is this a disguise technique?"

......

Chiba Takashi saw Sousuke's brows furrow even more, and his smile turned smug.

He said slowly, "I am a perfect actor..."

"Once I've witnessed a fight, I'll remember your physical stats!"

"Moreover, I've been observing every fight you've had over the past few days."

"Now, everything about you is completely out of my control..."

"It's not just your appearance, physique, or voice..."

"And your martial arts style, your movement habits..."

"I have thoroughly analyzed and learned everything about you. Soon, I will easily defeat you using your most proficient move!"

Chiba Takashi stared directly into Atobe Sousuke's eyes with a gaze that seemed to see right through them, uttering words that could instantly shatter the will of an ordinary person.

Chapter 315 So, do your best to imitate it!

Sosuke stood quietly, listening to the other person's confident words.

Then, he took a deep breath.

His tightly furrowed brows suddenly relaxed.

Then, he reached to his left shoulder, grabbed his shirt, and ripped it off!

"Tear!"

A sound like tearing silk rang out.

Amidst the clamor of the crowd.

Amidst screams of hearts from countless female spectators.

Sosuke's flawless body was suddenly revealed.

Streamlined, with angular muscles that are even more perfect than the most meticulously sculpted statues by masters.

Even the most aesthetically pleasing muscle shapes in anime and fantasy works cannot compare to the perfection of Atobe Sousuke's super body, which has been reshaped by the system.

Compared to Sousuke's body, Chiba Takashi's physique, which was already quite exquisite for an ordinary person, immediately paled in comparison.

The contrast is just too stark!

Upon seeing Atobe Sousuke's expression, Chiba Takashi's smile faltered.

Conversely, Atobe Sousuke's lips curled into a smile that he hadn't shown in the past few days.

An extremely unrestrained smile!

He adopted a stance completely different from his previous battles, standing straight with his arms outstretched as if to embrace the air.

"Is that so? Then do your best to imitate it!"

boom!

The overwhelming terrifying aura was frantically assaulting Chiba Takashi's mind.

At that moment, he felt as if he were facing not a human being, but a deity—

Evil spirit!

He inexplicably felt a familiar, heart-pounding sensation.

That's a feeling that only arises when facing renowned madmen like Julius.

Could this kid be a super strong expert at the Berserker level?!

Immediately following this, amidst his overwhelming anxiety, Chiba Takashi was stunned to discover that the fighting style of Atobe Sousuke that he had been meticulously studying for the past few days...

This is completely inconsistent with the attitude that Sosuke is currently displaying.

Over the past few days, everyone has seen Atobe Sousuke fight using a stance similar to Japanese karate, a common defensive technique.

But now that Atobe Sousuke has removed his clothes, there's absolutely no indication of the technique he's about to use.

This caused a cold sweat to break out on Takashi Chiba's forehead.

On the other hand, Atobe Sousuke seemed to have a clear understanding of people's hearts.

He watched as Takashi Chiba became hesitant.

He walked towards Takashi Chiba while laughing wildly.

"What's wrong? Didn't you say you had completely 'analyzed' me?"

"Come on, why don't you come and defeat me...?"

Hearing the sarcastic tone from the other end of the line, Chiba Takashi gritted his teeth.

The next second, he rushed towards Atobe Sousuke, who was walking with his hands outstretched.

In an instant, he unleashed a punch similar to a lunge!

It is fast and covers a long distance.

In karate, this move is often used as the starting point for a sudden attack.

This is also the attack that Atobe Sousuke has been using most often these past few days when he's been easily defeating newbies.

"Oh!"

This incredibly fast punch landed precisely on Atobe Sousuke's chest!

Sosuke stood there calmly, looking at Chiba Takashi as if he were an ant.

'What!'

Chiba Takashi's eyes trembled, but he quickly withdrew his fist without hesitation and immediately kicked Atobe Sousuke with a high sweeping kick.

Not only that, in the next few seconds, he launched a rapid attack on Atobe Sousuke with more than ten punches and kicks, just like a master of the most refined karate!

Without a doubt, at least in the field of "karate," as he said at the beginning, his skills are no less than those of any karate master in the world.

The premise is that the enemy he faces cannot be too much stronger than him.

Unfortunately, standing in front of Chiba Takashi was Atobe Sousuke.

Faced with Chiba Takashi's rapid and powerful continuous attacks, Atobe Sousuke remained as immovable as a mountain.

Aside from calmly blocking attacks aimed at vital areas like the groin and head, he would simply raise his hand to parry.

To all of Chiba Takashi's other attacks, Sousuke neither dodged nor evaded—

I endured it entirely with my physical body!

"Bang bang bang bang bang..."

A series of dull thuds as fists and feet struck flesh echoed throughout the arena.

The audience stared wide-eyed at the incredible scene unfolding on the field, and the initially enthusiastic shouts gradually subsided.

There's no way around it; the scene of Atobe Sousuke standing firm like a mountain, absorbing all of his opponent's attacks, is just too outrageous.

Just by listening to the terrifying sound effects of Chiba Takashi's punches and kicks, one can tell that they are definitely not power that ordinary people can withstand.

However, Atobe Sousuke actually stood his ground without any fear.

How could such an outrageous thing exist in the world?

Is this guy's body made of stone?!

Sosuke's body is certainly not made of stone.

He relied on his skills!

Ever since his Unarmed Protection skill level finally exceeded "50" with the bonus, he had already discovered something.
