I am the king of fighting!

Chapter 168 New Soft Jutsu
"It's a nice day with clear sky and no clouds in the sky."

Lin Xi lied with his eyes open. He didn't see any spiritual world or cracks, and he didn't know anything about them. Even if something happened, he would be the first one to run away. He would never be a sucker.

It is normal for any changes to occur in the world of Samurai Shodown. At first, it was just the background of the game where swordsmen happily fought each other and beat bosses. With the official's repeated bragging, the villains gradually escalated to an increasingly outrageous level.

The strongest non-theoretical character, the Space-Time Serpent Yuga, cast his incarnation as the Puppet Master Yuga and participated in the mission of invading the human world under the command of Abrosha. According to the setting, mortals have no way to touch these two monsters, let alone defeat them.

Therefore, Abrosha was just slacking off inside the seal the whole time, and Yuga even died again and again in his incarnations, leaving himself to Haohmaru to kill, so in the game it seems that Haohmaru is the strongest.

But in fact, this is not the case at all...

The story of the first Samurai Shodown is very simple. Amakusa Shiro Tokisada, who died in the Tokugawa shogunate, was resurrected in 1788 with the help of the power of the Dark God. He caused chaos in the world and wanted to open the door to the demon world. The swordsmen gathered together to kill Amakusa. The first generation didn't even have much plot.

Then the interesting thing comes. In the two years from 1788 to 1790, in the context of fighting games alone, the Dark God pushed for five actions to open the gate to the devil world or revive himself, and there are more records of chaos in other types of games...

With this frequency of causing trouble, if the game had run out of old stuff, I don't know how much more mess it would have caused. In order to ensure that the BOSS would not die and be unable to appear, the official simply set the dark god Abrosha, the scapegoat, as a completely immortal human god of negative emotions. As long as humans are alive, He will be immortal.

By the way, even the first generation villain BOSS Amakusa Tokisashiro was not actually dead. He was divided into good and evil sides by the Dark God. The good side soul was still a friendly army, which led to the soul of Shohansha Sala, who could not rest because of the magic of Amakusa's evil side, always wandering in the world.

Most of the other villains are similar. Even the time-space snake Yuga, who is clearly written to be killed by the plot, was simply beaten out of the Samurai Shodown universe by the true Asura (Asura), who was also a visitor from outer space. It is not impossible for him to appear later if he really wants to. Even the daughter of Rakshasa Asura (the puppet created by Yuga) still has Yuga's soul and power in her body.

Therefore, as we all saw, thirty-three years after the first generation, Haohmaru had half his hair white and looked very old, but he was still running around in the world fighting against evil spirits... He was such a pitiful protagonist.

Compared to the incompetent Kusanagi Kyo, he is really too diligent.

Later, after SNK restarted the Samurai Shodown series, they simply stopped writing later and started writing the story before. After all, according to the background story, too many characters were killed during the two years when the Dark God was rampaging. In order to please the fans, and because the background story could not be continued, they could only write the story before the Dark God's arrival.

The stories are getting more and more ridiculous, and the popular characters are killed off one after another. This is also the fundamental reason why there are fewer and fewer stories related to Samurai Shodown...

For the game, you don't have to write the story if you can't continue, but in reality, Japan has to face a lot of undead bosses' attacks in turn. Lin Xi really doesn't want to get involved in the messy Samurai Shodown story. It would be okay if you died accidentally, but the worst thing is to die and become a doll or puppet of a boss.

"Let's leave Japan as soon as the game is over." He made up his mind not to come to this damn place unless it was necessary.

Anyway, even if they die, the Japanese will die first. Being able to survive until now means that they can continue to survive. Even if the earth is really about to be destroyed, there is still the big snake to hold it up.

To be honest, Orochi is miserable enough in The King of Fighters. It would be even more miserable if we change it to the world view of Samurai Shodown. However, from Orochi's perspective, the best way to prevent the Dark God from destroying the world is to kill all humans, which seems reasonable...

But no matter what, there are still many strong people in the human race. When the world is about to be destroyed, the big snake will definitely take over. As the will of the earth, the principle of "the lips and the teeth are interdependent" is definitely true.

Not to mention the monsters in Samurai Shodown, even if he was put in The King of Fighters, he would just be a small shrimp and no one would ask anything of him.

Thinking of this, Lin Xi felt more at ease. He gathered his mental strength and stopped looking around. He also comforted the snake's will. [Come on, Snake, I'll stop scolding you in the future]

After thinking about it for a while, his mental state had almost recovered. He sat back down to continue practicing. The practice time planned for today had not yet ended.

With unremitting practice, the competition day soon arrived.

Lin Xi ran to the stadium early in the morning to prepare for the competition. After stepping onto the stage, his first opponent was a middle-aged man in a kimono. As soon as he started to fight, he knew his opponent's moves.

Aikido.

To be precise, it should be called Daito-ryu Aikijutsu, which is a school of Japanese Aikido. Compared with other schools of jutsu, what is the perverted part of Daito-ryu? The perverted school has specially opened a special secret of Aiki: Aiki weapon technique, which includes Aiki two-sword style, spear technique, stick technique, dart technique, iron gun (firearm) technique...

What is the new era of jutsu? Click, pull the bolt.jpg.
As for why Lin Xi could judge that his opponent was practicing Daito-ryu Aikijutsu?

Because this B has taken out a spear, the alloy tip of the spear is shining in the sun, and it has been specially polished, and the diamond-shaped grooves look extremely fierce.

The finals are really coming soon, everyone is showing off their special skills, right?

"Excuse me." The middle-aged man said politely, and then stabbed with his spear at him without any hesitation from more than two meters away.

"Boom!"

An irregular hole was suddenly poked into the ground.

Lin Xi dodged to the side, his expression almost unable to hold back, "Why don't you take out your rifle? If you have the ability, get a Gatling gun, damn!"

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

It was obvious that he was a master of Aikido weapons. He wielded a nearly three-meter-long spear with extraordinary flexibility. The shadow of the spear made it impossible for Lin Xi to get in for a while. He stood in the middle, his arm span and the spear covering a small half of the arena. He had a horse stance and did not need to move at all. He was just like playing whack-a-mole, poking and sweeping.

"Snapped!"

Lin Xi thought for a long time, and finally used his hardened skin to forcibly block the attack with his arm. The gun tip that swept across his arm could not penetrate the defense because of the hardened skin. He took advantage of the situation, wrapped his hands around the gun shaft, pulled hard, and shouted:
"Let go!"

The veins on the middle-aged man's forehead and neck were bulging, his body was shaking constantly, and his feet left two footprints on the steel ring, but he refused to let go.

Sorry, I overslept and forgot the timer
Regarding the background story of Samurai Shodown, I can only add some secondary settings and try my best to fill in the settings abandoned by the official. Otherwise, I won’t be able to continue writing. Please forgive me.

By the way, the real Daito-ryu Aikijutsu does have weapon techniques...
