Any kind of large-scale international competition would require a long preparation time and preparation time.
KOF was no exception.
According to the plan, KOF would first hold an elimination round in several venues around the world. After the elimination round, 32 teams would officially be selected and would come to Japan for the competition. There were no requirements for the venue of the elimination round. Just like the World Cup, no one would pay attention to teams other than local teams unless they qualified for the competition. Therefore, there would not be too many people watching the competition. They only needed to rent a local boxing match or similar venue.
But once the competition began, they would need other venues. Of course, Dusk could not set up the competition venue on the streets or in places of historical interest like in the game. But she had her own choices. Hazy Moon Island and Hiyama could be used as the competition venues. The final would be held at Hiyama's Night Spring.
This way, not only would it improve the tourism prospects of Hiyama, but it would also get rid of bad luck.
The local government of Hiyama was overjoyed by Dusk's suggestion. They were worried that the rumors of Hiyama committing suicide at a sacred place would affect the tourism industry. Now that Dusk decided to hold the final of KOF in Hiyama, they were relieved. After all, it was an international competition. It would definitely attract a lot of attention!
If they could successfully win the competition, they would not have to bow and apologize for their previous losses.
However, to Taowu, the last person was nowhere to be found.
Mary had reported to her home and was now training with Sui Naiguo. The latter had also begun to learn "Shifting Stars" under Dusk's guidance.
After examining Sui Naiguo, Dusk found that she was indeed a copy of Duan Yu. Although he did not know whether the little girl ate a ten-thousand-year-old ice toad or obtained a hundred years' worth of power from somewhere, Sui Naiguo's body did contain a rather unique and powerful power.
But Sui Naiguo was still inferior to Duan Yu. At least the latter had learned "Wave-like Subtle Steps", while Duan relied on imitation to survive.
Dusk had put in a lot of effort to help Sui Naiguo adapt to this power. Dusk had tailor-made "Shifting Stars" for Sui Naiguo. Strictly speaking, it was a combination of "Minor Phaseless Technique" and "Shifting Stars". [Small Phaseless Method] imitated other people's martial art characteristics through profound internal force, while [Big Dipper Passage Technique] imitated other people's martial art moves through external force.
The combination of the two was tantamount to creating a copy ninja …. Any move you used in front of her could be copied by her from the inside out.
And it might even be more authentic than the original.
Sui Naoguo was also quite serious about her training. She liked combat skills, but she did not particularly like a certain type of combat. To put it bluntly, Sui Naoguo was a DD head. She liked whatever she saw because it was cool, and she liked whatever she saw because it was cool. She was a classic example of "only children make choices, I want them all".
If it was really like in the movies, where a tramp gave her a few martial arts manuals to choose from, she wouldn't choose them at all. She would definitely pack them up and take them all away.
For a person like her, if you asked her to concentrate on learning a combat skill, she would definitely not be able to calm her heart. However, if she were to learn a technique that could replicate all combat skills, that would be too much to Sui Guo's liking.
By the way, I also discovered the true form of the power within Sui Naoko's body — it's actually a flame?
Could it be that she also has the blood of Orochi?
She had examined Sui Naoguo, but she did not find any Orochi blood in her body. This made Sui a little confused as to where the mysterious flame power in her body came from.
But at the very least, if Sui Naoguo fought against Kyo Kusanagi, the two of them would be able to fight against Orochi.
At that time, Sui Naoguo must remind Sui Naoguo not to stand on the left.
Sui Naoguo's training was going smoothly. She also got along well with Mary, but what gave Sui a headache was that she still could not find the last person.
It wasn't that she didn't look for female fighters like Fujido Kasumi or KING based on her impression, but these people had either joined someone else's team or were aiming for the championship …. This gave Dustin a headache. At the same time, she also remembered Urai Yousuke's actions. If it wasn't for you guys, why would I change the rule from three to four? Now I have to look for them everywhere …. If I can't find them, I'll teach you a lesson!
But while Sui was having a headache, Ranko gave her another request — she heard that there were vampires roaming around Akihabara recently, and they wanted her to investigate it. With the idea of changing her mood, Sui went to Akihabara with the Mist Branch.
At first, Akihabara was not the holy land of Japanese otaku in the future. Strictly speaking, Akihabara was more like an electronics street, mainly selling various household appliances and electronics-related products. Electronic products such as electric fans, washing machines, televisions, video cameras and so on could be found here.
Looking up, the advertisements hanging on the surrounding buildings were not some coquettish 2D girls, but more signboards such as "OO Electric Co., Ltd.". It would not be an exaggeration to say that Akihabara was the Japanese Zhongguancun at that time.
But now, the street was not crowded with people. In fact, it was a little empty. After all, not long ago, Japan's bubble economy completely burst. The stock price plummeted, and a large number of shops went bankrupt. The economy instantly became gloomy. It was the same in Akihabara now. Walking on the street, one could see the words "closed" or "bankrupt" everywhere. There were only a few shops that had customers, and the people walking on the street were all listless, as if they were the living dead.
"These people look like they've been sucked dry of blood."
The Mist Branch could not help commenting when she saw the haggard people walking on the street with briefcases in their hands. Sui just chuckled and shrugged her shoulders.
Because Sui had long expected the collapse of Japan's economy, the girls did not really feel the harm brought by the collapse of Japan's economy. Besides, for Sui …. even if she suffered a loss, it was not her own money.
"Well, we're here to look for vampires. Do you feel anything?"
"I don't feel the aura of our kind."
The Mist Branch shook her head.
"But there's a strange smell of blood in the air, but it's not the same as the vampires I'm familiar with …."
"What do you mean?"
"Maybe it's the same as the one in Kyoto, a native Japanese monster. I'm not familiar with that."
"Where are they?"
"This way."
As they spoke, they turned around and walked into the alley of Akihabara, following the smell all the way. However, just as they came to another street, they saw two figures flashing through the alley like they were flying.
"Over there!"
"I see them!"
Seeing the two figures, Sui and the Mist Branch hurriedly followed. The speed of the two people was extraordinary, so it was obvious that they were the culprits behind the rumor of vampires in Akihabara.
The two people in front were not slow, but Sui and the Mist Branch were not to be trifled with. After a while, the two people in front were blocked in an abandoned construction site. At the same time, Sui and the Mist Branch also stopped. They hid in the dark and carefully observed the two people.
"What the hell do you want?!"
The one who shouted was a man who looked to be in his thirties. He was wearing a black coat and wrapped himself up tightly. He looked like a criminal who was going to rob a bank.
"That's my problem."
Opposite the man was a girl who looked to be about 16 or 17 years old. She had beautiful black hair and fair skin. Her slender body was wrapped in a black dress and a white hood. It was obviously not raining at the moment and the sun was shining brightly, but the girl not only covered her head with a hood, but also held a pure white umbrella in her hand ….
Frankly speaking, both of them were dressed very strangely.
"Aren't you afraid of attracting trouble by doing this? Someone's already watching us! "
"Then let's destroy them!"
Hearing the girl's words, the man waved his hands forcefully.
"We are the most powerful race in this world! Our strength is enough to conquer them! Those bugs can't even withstand a single blow! "
"… Looks like there's nothing more to say to you."
Hearing the man's answer, the black-haired girl sighed and raised the umbrella in her hand. The man roared and pounced on the black-haired girl.
Facing the man's attack, the black-haired girl raised the umbrella and aimed it at the man like a longsword. Then, she shouted and stabbed the white umbrella in her hand at the man's shoulder. However, this caused the man's body to immediately lose its balance, and his original posture of pouncing forward also collapsed.
However, what happened next was a little strange.
Just as the man lost his balance, the black-haired girl stretched out her hand and grabbed the man's coat. Then, she turned around like a butterfly and took off the man's coat and threw it to the side. At the same time, the hot sun shone on the man's body, causing him to scream in pain.
But the girl's attack did not stop there. While the man was screaming in pain, she rushed forward, grabbed the man's shirt inside, and tore it off. Then, she put her hands on the man's waist and pulled down hard. The man's pants were instantly taken off.
"Ahhhhh!!!"
At the same time, the almost naked man was exposed to the sun. He screamed and raised his hands, trying to struggle. But after a moment, he turned into a pile of black ashes and disappeared into the air with the wind.
"What is this? A pervert? "
Seeing this scene, Misty Branch was stunned. On the contrary, Mi's eyes lit up.
Eh? This is interesting!
Mi's figure flashed and in the next moment, she instantly appeared behind the black-haired girl. Then, Mi reached out and patted her shoulder.
"Hello, Miss."
Sensing that someone suddenly appeared behind her, the black-haired girl was taken aback. She hurriedly turned to look at Mi and raised the umbrella in her hand. On the other hand, Mi didn't care at all. Instead, she looked at the black-haired girl with a smile and said.
"Do you want to join my team and participate in the competition?"
