Starting with Kengan beating up the Pirate King

Chapter 20 Tokita Ohma! Armament Haki!
"What the hell, Himuro Ryo..."

"It made me lose a hundred million!"

Amid the gamblers' complaints, the bosses of the Quanyuan Association left one after another. Many of them took a deep look at Guan Yi before leaving and made a note of him.

Jerry Tyson was shouting excitedly around Guan Yi. Boss Imamura, his face flushed, looked even more like he'd been drinking than Ken Oya, and exclaimed in amazement beside Guan Yi, "Amazing, Mr. Guan Yi! Is this the legendary Chinese Kung Fu?"

To be honest, he didn't have high expectations for this fight, after all, his opponent was Himuro Ryo. If Jerry Tyson hadn't said he lacked confidence and strongly recommended Seki, he wouldn't have even considered wasting that 500 million yen.

I never expected it to bring such a big surprise!

If... if we could make Mr. Guan Yi a formally contracted athlete with Iwao Bookstore, then we would never have to worry about the Kengan match again!
Just as he was thinking this, a slightly strange voice suddenly rang out from the side: "Imamura, this Mr. Guan Yi from China hasn't signed a contract with your Iwai yet, has he?"

Imamura paused, then turned around and saw a cunning, thin middle-aged man in a floral shirt. His expression changed slightly as he asked, "Mr. Yoshitake?"

The man adjusted his women's glasses and, with a delicate gesture of his pinky finger, said, "I knew it! Hello, Mr. Guan Yi, I am Yiwu Qilang from Yiwu Real Estate. Would you be interested in fighting a boxing match for me?"

"Our opponent is the Nogi Group, and the bet is the right to rebuild that abandoned building in the city center—a prize worth over 100 billion yen!" His voice gradually rose. "If you win, I can give you a hefty reward of 100 million yen! Even if you lose, you'll still get an appearance fee of 20 million yen!"

Imamura's expression darkened. He wanted to say that Yoshitake's asking price was disrupting the market, but Yoshitake was a rising star in the Japanese real estate industry, and his company was on a completely different level compared to his bookstore.

Jerry Tyson's eyes lit up when he heard the price, and he frantically hinted to Guan Yi to take it.

Guan Yi doesn't care about money, or rather, he only cares about Pele and not Yen. In the Kengan world, he doesn't have many opportunities to spend money.

He cares more about his opponents.

Nogi Group?

"So who is my opponent?"

Yoshitake Keiro chuckled: "It was supposed to be the big guy Komada, but I heard that Nogi Group recently changed its personnel, and his name is... Tokita Ohma!"

"He'll probably be a bit stronger than Komada, which is why I've been looking for new players everywhere. But there's one guy I absolutely don't want to lose to: Nogi Hideki! I'm counting on you, Mr. Seki!"

……

The following afternoon, in an abandoned building in the city center.

"Oh, so the competition is being held in a place like this?"

Tokita Ohma crossed his arms and observed the surrounding broken tiles and damp ground.

His messy, unruly medium-length hair and strong physique gave him a wild beauty. As a first-time participant in the Kengan Tournament, he remained calm and composed, ignoring the scrutinizing gazes around him as he looked towards Guan Yi in the distance.

"Is that my opponent this time? The mysterious successor of Chinese martial arts, Guan Yi."

Yamashita Kazuo, standing nearby, was extremely nervous. Even Nogi Hideki, who had the air of a superior, frowned slightly and said, "We can't be careless, Ohma-kun. Just yesterday, this person completely defeated Yoshinokuniya's strongest player in history, Himuro Ryo, who had already won two matches in two previous games, in ten seconds."

The beautiful blonde secretary, holding a notebook, pointed to a corner and said, "Himuro Ryo is here to watch the game. It seems he was very unwilling to accept his defeat yesterday."

Ryo Himuro was indeed standing there.

He wasn't unwilling to accept defeat; he simply didn't understand it, or rather, although he was a direct participant, he didn't grasp the meaning of his failure. He hadn't been careless, and his actions were flawless, yet he lost the game simply because a single small flaw was exploited?
He wanted to see what was going on!

"A formidable opponent? Just what I'm looking for!" Tokita Ohma glanced at Himuro Ryo before stepping onto the arena.

Guan Yi then stopped in front of him.

"Two newcomers?"

"No, that Chinese guy isn't a newcomer anymore. He just completely defeated Himuro Ryo yesterday!"

"Yes, betting on him is definitely the right thing to do!"

Such discussions continued unabated. Just like Guan Yi was not favored yesterday, Tokita Ohma was not favored, but he had an excited smile on his face as he looked at Guan Yi with excitement.

"Phew... Don't let me down."

"Haha, no way."

Guan Yi closed his eyes, concentrated, and calmed his mind.

Hmm? This guy seems different from yesterday? Himuro Ryo noticed something was off.

In the center of the ring, the referee's hand rose high and then fell: "On your marks! Begin!!"

Guan Yi opened his eyes and bent down.

'Roar!!'

A tiger's roar suddenly appeared in the minds of Ryo Himuro and Ohma Tokita!

The audience, who were not trained in martial arts, couldn't hear it, but they could feel it; almost instantly, they all fell silent. To them, Guan Yi on the stage didn't seem human, but rather like a ferocious beast, exerting an almost instinctive pressure on them!
Boom——! !

In the blink of an eye, as if by some legendary magic that could shrink the distance between two people to an inch, the five or six meters between them disappeared, and Guan Yi's fist directly crushed into the chest of the Ten Demon Snake King!
Tiger Form - Leaping over the Stream!

"puff--"

His sternum was broken, and blood spurted out.

Tokita Ohma was completely unresponsive to the attack, his eyes wide with disbelief as he was sent flying backward and crashed into the wall behind him!

The arena fell silent for a moment, then erupted in a deafening roar. "A single strike?!"

"Hey, did you guys see that just now...?"

"Was that guy really human, or some kind of beast in human skin?!"

"Mr. Ohma?!" Yamashita Kazuo cried out in alarm. Akiyama Kaede covered her mouth, and Nogi Hideki was also somewhat out of control due to shock.

This guy is a monster! Even Izumi Hatsumi wouldn't have an easy time beating Ohma!
At the edge of the arena, Himuro Ryo's pupils, which had been contracting, gradually returned to normal. He gasped – he understood, he fully understood why he had lost yesterday; it was a difference in pure martial arts skills!

On the stage, Guan Yi, who had used his strongest attack, apologized to Wang Ma in his heart.

Tokita Ohma, the protagonist of Kengan, is a growth-type fighter who can continuously improve and unleash his full potential in battle. Against such an opponent, the best choice is to defeat him as quickly and decisively as possible.

There are plenty of opportunities to hone your martial arts skills. Only a villainous supporting character would be so foolish as to feed the protagonist moves until he is defeated.
Moreover... even with the Tiger Strike, the victory settlement hasn't been finalized yet.

Sure enough, the body of Tokita Ohma, lying in the corner, began to twitch, every muscle seemed to be trembling, and he exuded an uneasy aura.

He slowly stood up, his body trembling violently as if he had mutated. His original beastly nature had transformed into that of a truly irrational beast.

"It's not over yet?" The Kengan members were astonished. "Tokita Ohma can still stand up!"

"Mr. Ohma!" Yamashita Kazuo exclaimed in surprise, then paused, "Mr. Ohma?"

Something seems off about Wang Ma.

Tokita Ohma wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, looked at Guan Yi with a vicious smile: "You're the first person to force me to use 'Pre-borrowing' in one move!"

He practices the Erhu style of martial arts.

In the Niko-ryu style, there are two profound techniques, one of which is called "relying on the gods," while Ohma prefers to call it "borrowing in advance"—overdrawing one's life force, accelerating the heartbeat, and driving a dramatic increase in the strength and speed of the whole body!

The next moment, he pushed off the ground with both feet and pounced at a speed close to that of Guan Yi's tiger form.

Thud thud thud—his fists lashed out wildly, while Guan Yi raised his arms to block.

In two or three seconds, it went back and forth a dozen times.

The ordinary person's eyes were dazzled and couldn't see clearly, but even Himuro Ryo, who could see clearly, felt only a sense of disorientation. The move Guan Yi was currently using seemed...

Snapped--

When Guan Yi once again caught Wang Ma's half-swung fist and launched a quick counterattack, Himuro Ryo couldn't hold back any longer. Wasn't this Jeet Kune Do?!
The others couldn't understand it, but Yamashita Kazuo only knew to clench his fists and cheer for Ohma.

'Mr. Ohma will never lose! Mr. Ohma... he will definitely win every battle!'

bang——

His prayers seemed to have an effect; after dozens of high-speed exchanges, Wang Ma finally struck Guan Yi's cheek with a frantic punch.

Seeing Guan Yi's body tilt to the side, he almost shouted with surprise, but then he saw Guan Yi, who was only on one leg, showing an amazing sense of balance. His arms spread like the wings of a roc, and his right hand was bent into a bow shape, launching a three-hit combo in a second!
Chicken shape - Golden Rooster Pecks Three Times!

Boom boom boom!
One wound to the forehead, one to the neck, and one to Wang Ma's sunken chest. Wang Ma vomited blood, finally losing all his strength!

Seeing Wang Ma unconscious in front of him, Guan Yi wiped his stinging lips and muttered, "He's much better than the last two matches. If I hadn't seriously injured him with my first blow, we probably would have fought for a while longer."

I'm feeling a little stressed!
[Victory in the third round of practical sparring]

[Currently learning from others' strengths and making up for our weaknesses]

[Gain the Ultimate Technique - Divine Possession]

[The fourth real-world sparring session can be initiated by consuming 100 life points and 100 million Berries.]

Current Health Points: 1725

Current wealth: 2772 million Berry

A flood of information rushed into his mind, and Guan Yi did not engage in a fourth real-world sparring match. His consciousness flowed back like a tide, returning to the world of One Piece.

In the training room, Guan Yi closed his eyes for a while to digest the gains from the two battles, then suddenly threw a jab forward, the air echoing with a clear boom!
"His punching speed is about 10% faster than before. If he trains in Jeet Kune Do, it should improve even more."

So next...

The ultimate technique—by the gods!
dong dong!dong dong!dong dong!

With the robust physique of someone from the pirate world, Guan Yi's heart was incredibly powerful. A clear, drum-like sound emanated from his chest, and a torrent of blood flowed through his body!
His strength, speed, and even reaction speed have been greatly enhanced!

At the same time, Guan Yi also sensed a strange power, faint but peculiar.

He tried to gather it up, attach it to his right fist, and then bent over to slam it into the ground.

bang——

Even though it didn't take much force, a crater was instantly smashed into the ground, and spiderweb-like cracks spread out.

"This is... Armament Haki?!"

　Some readers have mentioned not having read Kengan, but it's already quite popular within a niche manga genre. Since it's a crossover manga, there will always be those who have read it and those who haven't. Actually, the plot of Kengan is simple and easy to understand. Moreover, in the first volume, the ratio of Kengan's length to One Piece's length is roughly 2:8, so everyone can follow the plot smoothly.

　　If you really don't want to read Kengan, you can skip it; the following One Piece storyline will be even more exciting! Please vote for me and keep reading!
