I teach judo in Tokyo.

Superhuman physique?

Giant size?

Kill gods?

I'm going to stop you!

Sousuke's appearance is incredibly unrestrained!

Above his head, which he couldn't see, the words "Martial Arts" and "Madman" were burning with incredibly dazzling special effects!

Vajra Form - Indestructible - Full Body Muscle Enhancement!

Then comes the SSR-level parry skill—Roman Tower Shield!!!

"boom!!!"

A huge, shocking, terrifying sound suddenly rang out.

The incredibly thick, god-slaying arm slammed down on Atobe Sousuke's raised fist!

It crashed down with a terrifying force like a falling meteorite.

Between their arms, the compressed air exploded with a terrifying sonic boom.

The shockwave spread out, almost visible to the naked eye.

The arena beneath Atobe Sousuke's feet exploded with a deafening roar!

Fragments of ground material flew up.

Centered on his feet, a spiral of spiderweb-like cracks rapidly spread outwards.

Time seemed to stand still in that one second!

It then immediately began operating again.

Everyone stared intently as they saw that Atobe Sousuke, who had been cleaved by that terrifying God-Slaying Hand, had his feet embedded in the arena floor!

but!

He remained perfectly still, as if unharmed, maintaining his blocking stance!

The next second—

Blood gushed from Sousuke's mouth and nose instantly!

The Roman Tower Shield allows him to withstand all attacks, much like having "super armor" in a game.

However, this does not reduce the damage!

Julius stared wide-eyed at Atobe Sousuke, who was spitting blood from his mouth and nose but seemed completely unharmed, his eyes filled with disbelief.

The next second, Sosuke suddenly lunged forward, his elbows slamming into Julius's chest!

Immediately following was an incredibly heavy low sweep kick!

With one kick, he swept the tiger to the ground!

Sosuke stood tall and straight, looking down at the stunned Julius, his whole being exuding an aura like that of a god.

"I will take this god-slaying blow!"

"I will take this god-slaying blow!"

As he wiped the blood from his mouth and nose, Atobe Sousuke laughed heartily.

Julius, who was standing on his feet, slowly got up, his expression still showing that he hadn't quite recovered from the fact that his special move had been "forced" to pass by someone else.

“In my estimation, there are certainly people who can defeat me, perhaps even quite a few…” Julius frowned, “but…”

"I never imagined that anyone in this world could face my attack head-on without dodging or evading and emerge unscathed..."

Looking at Atobe Sousuke, who had wiped the blood from his mouth and nose and was now walking and jumping almost unharmed, he was filled with astonishment and couldn't help but exclaim, "Atobe Sousuke, you're ridiculously strong..."

"You flatter me. Shall we fight again?" Sosuke waved his hand, his smile unchanged. "Don't be fooled by my blocking that attack. I'm in excruciating pain all over. You might just be able to turn the tables on me."

Julius silently shook his head: "Since even the last trump card is useless, there's no need to continue. I know my own limitations."

"If we face each other again in the upcoming official matches, I hope you will not hesitate to offer your guidance."

Julius gave Sosuke a deep look.

With that, he turned around and dragged his massive body off the stage.

Seeing this, Sosuke clapped his hands and said loudly to the audience, "Alright, that's enough for the extra entertainment. See you the day after tomorrow."

The audience members looked at each other in surprise, and then burst into cheers.

"I knew it! Lord Atobe is invincible!"

"Sousuke, you're amazing!"

"You even defeated such a terrifying Julius, you must be the strongest in the world!"

"We'll still be there to support you during the official matches!!!"

......

Amidst the commotion, Atobe Sousuke quietly made his exit.

Immediately afterward, less than ten minutes later, news of Atobe Sousuke's victory over Julius in the "sparring match" swept across the entire internet.

Among many well-known portal websites.

"Sousuke Atobe" has become the hottest keyword.

"Julius" and his signature move "God-Slaying Rock Cutter" are equally popular.

Following closely in popularity were news stories about the King of Fighters.

On the last night of the arena competition, many powerful figures who had not appeared before suddenly emerged.

These powerful fighters directly put many champions in a tough battle.

In fact, ten champions were defeated at the last moment by these suddenly emerging powerhouses, losing their chance to enter the main competition.

The images and battle videos of these ten challengers quickly spread across the internet.

***

That evening, after returning to the dojo and washing up, Sosuke lay in bed scrolling through his phone.

While browsing the internet, he was surprised to find two familiar names among the ten challengers.

The old butler, Sebastian.

Goro Daimon, a legend in the judo world who has been retired for many years.

Apart from the two of them, the other eight people were all not Asian.

Sosuke immediately made a phone call to the old housekeeper from his bed.

The call was answered quickly: "Hello, Mr. Atobe."

"Hiss!" Sosuke shuddered slightly and gasped.

He then chuckled and said, "Grandpa Sebastian, congratulations on winning the title."

Sebastian seemed to be in a good mood, which could be heard from his voice: "Hehe, congratulations to you as well, for actually defeating Julius. I'm afraid I'm no match for you now."

"Look, you're flattering me again!" Atobe Sousuke said flippantly.

Sir, what you said is true, but that doesn't affect my humility!

Then, he asked curiously, "Grandpa Sebastian, which unlucky guy did you beat up?"

"He's a decent guy, probably at the upper level of the absolute level. There's no need to talk about him any further."

Sebastian continued calmly, "I'm participating in this tournament mainly because, aside from a temporary itch to play, it's also to officially announce the Yotsuba family's entry into the 'Battle of the Deer.' I probably won't even make it to the end."

Atobe Sousuke laughed and said, "Grandpa Sebastian, what if the two of us were to face off? It's not good for us to fight to the death as friends, is it?"

Sebastian's voice carried a hint of amusement: "What, are you going to admit defeat, kid?"

Then, without waiting for Sōsuke's reply, he laughed loudly and said, "Don't pretend, kid. You've been wanting to win back the one you lost to me during our sparring match a few months ago, haven't you?"

Sosuke chuckled and said nothing more.

"I've eaten more salt than you've eaten rice, so don't try to play tricks on me," Sebastian scoffed. "If we really clash, then—"

"Give it your all, don't hold back until the very last moment!"

Sebastian's voice was calm, yet it revealed an unwavering confidence.

"A word is settled!"

Atobe Sousuke's eyes lit up slightly—that was exactly what he wanted to hear.

Old man, I lost to you a few months ago.

If I get the chance this time, I'll definitely let you taste the bitterness of failure!

He's very vengeful!

After hanging up the phone, Sosuke tossed his phone onto the bedside table.

While looking down and reaching out, she chuckled and said, "Saki, you heard everything? Why are you so excited?"

The other small head.

My little classmate seemed to be eating something while talking, and his voice sounded a bit unclear: "Um... hiss... So... Sosuke-kun, are you really going to fight Sebastian-chan?"

“Of course, last time he punched me and almost broke my arm, so I had to punch him back, right?” Sosuke smiled slightly.

As soon as he finished speaking, he noticed that his deskmate's lips tightened, making Sosuke feel a little uncomfortable.

He gasped and patted the cushion: "Saki, don't get excited. Grandpa Sebastian and I will handle things carefully. At most, we'll get a minor injury. Don't worry."

"Hmm...uh..." The little classmate immediately nodded gratefully, making Sosuke's heart tremble.

This young girl, despite being so shy, was willing to dedicate herself so earnestly so that the dojo master and her old steward wouldn't get hurt.

It's truly pitiful.

Moreover, this girl truly lives up to her SSR-level talent; she seems to be able to learn anything on her own.

They even manage to use that head-shaking skill so well.

Even Sousuke couldn't help but soften his heart when he saw it.

Seeing how well-behaved his classmate was, he naturally didn't want to let him down.

So he sat up abruptly, then put his arm around his classmate's slender waist and drank heartily.

His deskmate was so frightened by how much he was drinking that he couldn't help but tremble all over.

He swallowed unconsciously, and a sobbing sound escaped from his throat.

My classmate's throat tightened from the stimulation of Sosuke's drinking.

The temple master was immediately overwhelmed.

"Hiss!" Sosuke gasped again.

He could no longer restrain himself, and lifted his little classmate upside down, placing him back in the correct position on his back.

Then he gently pulled her into his arms.

Looking down at his classmate's bewildered and dizzy eyes, which were filled with confusion from the suffocation and the rapid turning, he smiled slightly.

I was originally planning to wait until you were a little older.

But since you've offered yourself up so readily, I can't let you down...
