Infinite: Starting from Resident Evil

Commentator A chimed in, "So, fighters, the first defeat is not important. Perhaps winning the championship after fighting your way out of the loser's bracket will be even more impressive."

"Alright, the rules have been explained. Now, please have the first team prepare and decide on their order of battle." It was commentator A's voice again.

However, commentator B added: "In addition, the ring will adopt the defending rule. Before being completely incapacitated, the fighter can choose to continue fighting after winning. However, the organizers asked me to specifically remind the fighters to act according to their abilities and not to cause serious casualties."

Then the two commentators said together, "Now, please welcome Team Japan and Team Gold to the ring to prepare for the match."

As the two commentators began explaining the information about the two teams' members, the Japanese team and the Gold team entered the stadium amidst cheers from tens of thousands of spectators.

"Kyo, Goro, let me go first."

On the Japanese team's side, Benimaru Nikaido, with his blond hair, smoothed his spiky hair with both hands and said to Kyo Kusanagi and Goro Daimon with a rather narcissistic air.

"This is a competition that the whole world is watching. In such a high-profile competition, only the first person to go on stage can get more attention. Maybe, because of my excellent performance, I will gain more female fans."

"If you're confident, I have no objection. But Benimaru, if you win, that's fine, but if you lose, you'll lose face big time." Kyo Kusanagi shrugged indifferently. As the champion of last year's Japan Mixed Martial Arts Tournament, he didn't take Team Gold, his opponent, seriously at all.

Nikaido Benimaru said confidently, "Don't worry, Kyo. I've already inquired. Apart from that guy named Kim Kaphwan, the other two in the Kim team are nobodies."

Another member of the Japanese team, Goro Daimon, who had been squinting, nodded: "Then you can go first, Benimaru. I'm looking forward to seeing you take on three opponents at once."

"Just you wait and see." Benimaru Nikaido chuckled, then leaped onto the nearly two-meter-high arena.

Then, he tossed his hair in a flamboyant manner and waved and blew kisses to the stadium audience and cameras.

At this moment, commentator A's voice rang out: "The Japanese team has selected its first player to take the stage, Benimaru Nikaido from the Nikaido Foundation. As one of the top three in last year's Japan Mixed Martial Arts Tournament, his strength should not be underestimated."

At the same time, commentator B's voice rang out: "Ha! Team Jin's first member has come up on stage. Hmm, it's actually Cai Baoqi, the shortest member of all the teams. But don't let his size fool you, he's quite strong. He's skilled in Taekwondo and his self-created claw technique. But speaking of which, there's no rule against using weapons in this competition, is there...?"

As the commentator's voice rang out, on the stage, Benimaru Nikaido and Choi Bounge slowly approached each other.

Looking at the short-statured Choi Bounge, Benimaru Nikaido frowned and said, "Hey, shorty, you might as well just admit defeat. It feels a bit unfair to beat you!"

“I also want to surrender, but my master will definitely disagree. If I surrender, he will train me with the cruelest methods.” Cai Baoqi looked miserable. He and Chen Guohan did not want to participate in this kind of competition, but their master was very concerned about it.

"How pitiful! Well then, I will defeat you as quickly as possible and free you from this predicament."

As Benimaru Nikaido spoke, he raised his right hand high. As soon as he finished speaking, he clenched his fist and brought his hand to his chest. This action was obviously for show, and it was quite effective. As a fighter with lightning powers, a bolt of lightning flashed across the sky and struck in front of him after he made this move.

His action ignited the atmosphere in the stadium, and cheers surged like a tidal wave.

"The power of lightning, huh? Tsk, I kind of regret not showing up. I really wanted to see just how strong this guy is."

In the audience, Sharmi stuffed a pastry into his mouth, chewing as he thought to himself. Then his gaze fell on the fighters' rest area not far from the arena, where Shen Ye was whispering with the Kagura sisters.

"If there's a second one, I definitely want Shen to take me along," Sharmi thought, chewing her pastry intently.

Chapter 702! Thunder Resilient Fist

(The move lists for some characters include those from '97 and earlier, except for Kyo Kusanagi's Musou.)

……

On the arena, Benimaru Nikaido and Choi Bounge's casual conversation didn't last long.

As the countdown on the screen ended, the commentator uttered the most classic opening line.

"Round One!"

"Prepare!"

"start!"

As soon as the commentator finished speaking, the two people who had been chatting leisurely suddenly became serious and then attacked instantly.

Choi Bounge was short and thin. Although he learned martial arts from Kim Kap-pan, his real specialty was not Taekwondo, but his own fighting style, which focused on speed-based attacks.

So, after the start, Cai Baoqi immediately unleashed his power, his two short legs slamming off the ground, and instantly appeared in front of Nikaido Benimaru. The two sharp claws on his hands crossed and slashed fiercely at Nikaido Benimaru's chest.

Fighters' bodies are like steel, making them difficult to harm with ordinary weapons. However, the weapons used by fighters are a different story. After discovering that Choi Bounge was incredibly fast, Benimaru Nikaido knew he couldn't rely solely on his eyes. Almost instinctively, he shifted to the side, relying on his fighter's fighting instincts.

Then he began to appreciate his fighting instincts. In his blasted state, Cai Baoqi's waving claws actually drew two intersecting air blades. The air blades, which were almost solidified, narrowly missed his chest and left two intersecting marks on the marble floor more than ten meters away.

A glimmer of hope flashed in his eyes, and Benimaru Nikaido immediately launched a counterattack. Taking advantage of the fact that Choi Bounge had just landed and was still facing away from him, he quickly closed in, while his right hand crackled with lightning, gathering violent lightning power.

This move is a special technique he created using his superpowers: Thunder Resilience Fist!

The silvery-white lightning directly affected an area of ​​tens of meters around Benimaru Nikaido. At this moment, the reporters surrounding the arena could see that the lenses of their cameras were shaking noticeably, which was due to the lightning power of Benimaru Nikaido.

Cai Baoqi, who was closest to him, felt it even more strongly. Even in his rage mode, his hair stood up quite a bit because of the impact. But he didn't have time to care about that now, because he could hear Nikaido Benimaru's angry shouts from behind.

"Thunderbolt Fist!"

It seems that fighters of this era all like to shout out the names of their moves, and Choi Bounge is no exception. He pressed his hands to the ground, exerted a sudden burst of strength, and his body spiraled into the air, dodging Benimaru Nikaido's Thunder Fist while shouting:

"Tornado Gale Slash!"

As his slightly comical voice rang out, a scattering of wind blades appeared around him, a killing move he created by spinning at high speed and combining it with the energy within his body.

woo woo woo...

The scattering wind blades cut through the air with a whooshing sound, and Benimaru Nikaido, who had no time to retreat, was also cut in many places.

"Damn it, my face!"

Benimaru Nikaido also had several cuts on his face. As an extremely narcissistic man, his face was the part he valued most. Although scars are a man's badge of honor, and with a fighter's physique, these injuries would heal in a few days, it still made him furious.

Seeing that Choi Bounge was still spinning in the air, Benimaru Nikaido did several backflips to get out of the wind blades' attack range. When he did the last backflip, he followed up with a super lightning kick.

The Super Lightning Kick, upon hitting an enemy, will follow a powerful, flipping kick with a second lightning attack, leaving the opponent with no way to avoid the falling lightning.

At this moment, Cai Baoqi was still in the air. Even though his movements were agile and varied, they were far inferior to the speed of lightning.

boom!

Lightning struck down from the sky, knocking Cai Baoqi from mid-air. Before he could get up, Nikaido Benimaru flashed in front of him, pressed his hands directly onto Cai Baoqi's head, and then firmly pressed him to the ground.

Then, as his superpowers gathered in his hands, Benimaru Nikaido shouted:

"The Great Power Generator!"

A surge of violent lightning power instantly filled Choi Bounge's entire body.

Just like in the movie, Choi Bounge was so shocked by the electric shock that his hair stood on end and even knocked his hat off...

"It looks...it's so ugly."

In the fighters' rest area, the Kagura sisters didn't look too good, and the female fighters not far from them had almost the same expression.

"That guy... he actually electrocuted people so badly..." Sayuri said with a bitter face, "It looks awful!"

Qiong touched her hair and looked at Mai Shiranui: "I'm fine, I have short hair, but Mai, you..."

"I won't let him touch me," Mai Shiranui said coldly.

Even though they are fighters, they are still women. The thought of their hair standing on end from being electrocuted by Benimaru Nikaido is something they definitely cannot accept.

"Shen-kun... if we encounter the Japanese team, I don't want to play against them. If they electrocute me, I'll look really bad," Kagura Chizuru said, grabbing Shen Ye's arm.

Shen Ye frowned and thought for a moment before saying, "The main problem is that the guy named Cai Baoqi had his internal energy dispersed by that previous attack. Otherwise, if he had tried to withstand it with his energy, this situation wouldn't have happened."

His voice wasn't loud, but the fighters all had excellent hearing. After listening for a moment, Mai Shiranui and the others thought about it and realized that what he said made a lot of sense.

"Even so, I don't want to fight him," Kagura Chizuru said, still pouting.

"Just let me play when the time comes." Kagura Manki patted her sister's head.

As the players were talking, the outcome of the match was already decided. After the commentator's ten-second countdown ended, Benimaru Nikaido secured his and the Japanese team's first victory in this tournament.

Although covered in blood, Benimaru Nikaido's stamina was not greatly depleted, and his superpowers were slowly recovering.

Ignoring the bloodstains on his body, Benimaru Nikaido kept blowing kisses to those around him: "Thank you! Thank you everyone, my name is Benimaru Nikaido, please remember me, especially the cute girls."

"I can't stand this guy..."

Beside the arena, Kyo Kusanagi covered his face, feeling too ashamed to face anyone.

The oldest of the three, Goro Daimon, didn't feel too embarrassed. He looked at the Gold Team on the other side and frowned when he saw the mountain-like giant enter the field.

"I wonder if Benimaru can still hold on?"

"That guy... doesn't seem weak, but besides his superpowers, Benimaru's fighting skills and physical abilities are quite good. Besides, defeating that guy named Choi Bounge didn't take much of his strength out of him, so he should be able to win." Kyo Kusanagi glanced up and said calmly.

"The biggest threat to Team Kim is that Kim Kapan, of course, referring to Benimaru. If he encounters me... Hmph, ten moves!" Kyo Kusanagi said confidently.

……

(Hmm, it's been so long since I wrote about battle scenes, I almost couldn't stop.)

Chapter 703! The Iron Ball's Overwhelming Suppression

……

Kyo Kusanagi's victory over South Korean Taekwondo master Kim Ga-pan in ten moves was not based on blind confidence. His superior fighting skills and physical abilities, combined with the Kusanagi family's fire abilities, made him virtually unbeatable in the world.

However, he may not have a chance to play in this round. If Benimaru Nikaido can't hold on, there is still Judo master Goro Daimon, and he will be the one to play last.

Regardless of what the audience and fighters were saying, on the stage at this moment, Chang Koehan, whose body was as big as a small mountain, had already walked up to Benimaru Nikaido.
