"Bang."
Amidst the muffled sound, the fist landed on Daimon Goro's chest without any fancy moves. But that was it. Other than that, nothing else happened.
Daimon Goro, who seemed to be completely unaware, grabbed Sei Itō's shoulders with both hands. He turned around and threw Sei Itō to the ground like a broken cloth bag.
Sei Itō's body turned illusory and instantly appeared above Daimon Goro's back when he bent over. He slapped his palm on Daimon Goro's back.
This punch also didn't have any abnormalities.
However, the moment Daimon Goro got up and turned around to grab Sei Itō, his expression suddenly changed. He opened his mouth and spat out a mouthful of blood.
"Double Penetrating Force — Knot."
The so-called Double Penetrating Force — Knot was actually a simplified version of the Killer — Fierce Fork, which the strongest disciple in history and No.1 Middle School's Hermit had learned from Ma Spear Tsuki. It was a move that hurt the enemy through the intersection of two forces that were sent into the enemy's body from different directions.
The most obvious feature of this method was that it was secretive! Before the explosion, the target wouldn't feel anything strange. They would only think that they were simply hit by the force of a certain fist.
Taking advantage of Daimon Goro's pause due to spitting out blood, Sei Itō appeared in front of him and punched Daimon Goro's chest again.
"Boom!"
Amidst the loud roar, Daimon Goro's body was like a cannonball, flying backward in a C-shape. He only stopped when he hit the alloy wall on one side of the combat hall.
"Bang!"
Daimon Goro's four limbs were spread wide. They were embedded in the alloy wall in a big letter shape. However, on his chest, there was a deep depression. One could clearly see the lines of every finger, a greenish-purple fist imprint remaining on his chest as a result of the attack.
His chest was sunken, his face was pale, and his breathing was as difficult as a worn-out old bellows.
"KO, the winner is contestant Sei Itō from the testing team," Martin's voice announced.
The medical staff quickly ran to Daimon Goro's side. They pulled him down from the wall and placed him on a stretcher. Carried by two people, he quickly left the Combat Hall. Head to the infirmary for emergency treatment.
"Bastard!" Kyo Kusanagi and Hanimaru glared at Sei Itō angrily.
"Kyō, I'll go for the next match." Hanimaru requested.
"No, your broken ribs haven't fully recovered yet. If you go up there, you'll just be delivering yourself to death. That's why I'll do the next round. If I lose. Just represent our team and admit defeat to the referee. Don't get entangled with this monster. " Kyo Kusanagi retracted his gaze and turned to look at Honmaru, who was wrapped in white bandages. His expression was serious.
"Kyoto." Erimaru frowned.
"This is my decision," Kyo Kusanagi said in an unquestionable tone.
"Alright. I got it. "Erimaru said helplessly.
Kyo Kusanagi smiled. Retracting his gaze, he closed his eyes and adjusted his body's Absolute Strength, adjusting his combat state.
Just like that, ten minutes passed by unknowingly.
"Next round, contestant Sei Itō of the Tester Team against contestant Kyo Kusanagi of the Japanese team!" Martin announced.
Sei Itō jumped on the stage and walked to the center.
Almost at the same time, Kyo Kusanagi also appeared in front of him. He lowered his body, got into a stance, and gently shook his body.
"Match, start!"
Then, Kyo Kusanagi opened his arms and used Koto Gekko.
In an instant, a yellow flame rushed toward Sei Itō at an extremely fast speed. But before the flame hit Sei Itō, Kyo Kusanagi immediately chased after the flame and quickly rushed toward Sei Itō.
Sei Itō dodged.
"Ghost Burn!"
The next moment, Kyo Kusanagi held a flame in his hand and jumped up. During this process, the flames were brought to form a rope of fire that wrapped around his body and burned his surroundings.
Sei Itō jumped back and dodged again.
Kyo Kusanagi landed on the ground and immediately rushed forward. He ran in front of Ito Sei and bent his elbow to hit Ito Sei's chest and abdomen. After being blocked, he quickly grabbed Ito Sei's collar and raised it high. Then, a large ball of red and yellow flames burst out from his hand.
"Boom!"
A clear explosion reverberated in the air.
However, just when Kyo Kusanagi was happy that his attack was successful, Honmaru's urgent warning was suddenly transmitted.
"Kyo, be careful!"
The next moment, before Kyo Kusanagi could understand, Sei Itō suddenly appeared behind him and slapped him on the neck.
"Plop."
Kyo Kusanagi fell to the ground with his face down. Then, like a newborn baby who couldn't control his body, he wriggled and scratched on the ground.
Medical Ninjutsu – Flickering Body Rush.
"Kyoto!" Hanaru shouted anxiously.
No matter how hard Kyo Kusanagi tried, he couldn't control his body and say a complete sentence.
Seeing this, all the Fighters' expression changed. After all, no one wanted to end up like Kyo Kusanagi. It was too ugly, and if it was going to be like this in the future, they might as well just die.
"10, 9, 8 …" After a few seconds of buffer time, Martin read the time according to the rules.
"… 3, 2, 1. K.O, the winner is Sei Itō! "After reading the time, Martin announced loudly.
Honmaru rushed to the arena and ran to Kyo Kusanagi's side.
"Hmm?"
As a lightning ability user, he immediately noticed the abnormality in Kyo Kusanagi's electronic signal. He frowned and whispered.
"Kyo, bear with it." Honmaru lowered his head and said to Kyo Kusanagi.
Kyo Kusanagi didn't say anything, but he stopped his movements.
Honmaru didn't hesitate and immediately pressed down on Kyo Kusanagi's body and activated his ultimate skill – Great Lightning Strike.
In an instant, a large amount of lightning blossomed from Hankamaru's body. The lightning flowed from his hands to Kyo Kusanagi's body and quickly spread.
"Crackle …"
A clear sound of electricity was heard.
"Ahhh!" Kyo Kusanagi screamed in pain.
This situation lasted for five to six seconds before it ended.
"Kyō, how are you?" Erimaru, who had retracted his hands, quickly asked with concern.
"I'm okay, I won't die." Kyo Kusanagi said subconsciously. As soon as he said that, he was stunned. Then he jumped up from the ground with a face full of surprise. He waved his fists and legs crazily.
"I'm fine?" Kyo Kusanagi was surprised.
"That's good." Honmaru stood up and breathed a sigh of relief.
"What should we do next?" Honmaru looked at Sei Itō and asked Kyo Kusanagi.
"Like we said before, we admit defeat." Kyo Kusanagi lowered his head and thought for a moment. Then he said firmly without hesitation.
"Okay." Honmaru nodded in agreement.
Then Honmaru and Kyo Kusanagi went to the referee and told him that they admitted defeat.
"Everyone, because the Japanese team admitted defeat, I now officially announce that the winning team of this year's King of Fighters Tournament is the tester team! Congratulations to them! " After waiting for a moment, Martin announced in a calm and solemn voice, but at the end, he returned to his impassioned state.
"Wow …"
A burst of disorderly applause rang out in the Combat Hall.
"In addition, in order to celebrate the victory of the tester team, at six o 'clock tonight, the organizer will hold a grand banquet. Please be on time." Martin paused for a moment and then announced.
"Congratulations, the new King of Fighters." Terry and the others walked to Sei Itō and congratulated him with smiles.
"Congratulations, Ito-san." Athena also congratulated him with a joyful face.
"Congratulations." King and Mai Shiranui from the female team of fighters said.
"Congratulations." Robert represented the Dragon Tiger Fist team and congratulated him.
"Congratulations." Jin Jiapan walked over with his team and congratulated him with a forced smile. Obviously, they still hadn't recovered from the trauma caused by Sei Itō.
"Congratulations." Kyo Kusanagi walked over with Honmaru and said politely.
Other than the few of them, the other two teams were either absent or had very unsociable personalities. They weren't interested in making small talk, so they didn't join in the fun.
As for the other teams that participated in the qualifiers, they didn't have a reason to come because they weren't familiar with each other. Perhaps they felt that the gap between them was too big, so they didn't show their faces.
Sei Itō chatted with everyone for a while and then left the fighting hall. He went to the infirmary and found Mary and Tengtang Kaori who were still unconscious and resting on the bed. He treated them and woke them up. He then told them that his team had won the tournament.
"Really?" Tengtang Kaori asked with a face full of surprise. Even though Mary didn't express anything, her perked ears betrayed her thoughts.
"Yes." Sei Itō smiled and confirmed.
"Yay, that's great!" Tengtang Kaori jumped up from the bed and cheered.
After that, the three of them didn't stay in the infirmary for long. They returned to the lounge together and waited for the banquet to start. A few hours later, when the banquet was less than ten minutes away, the three of them reunited.
Because it was a gathering of fighters, there weren't any special requirements in terms of clothing. Therefore, the three of them left the room in what they thought was the most comfortable and polite clothes. They then walked to the banquet hall together.
