____Narration____

That moment was a unique event.

The fighters could only watch in amazement as Yuji demonstrated a power that surpassed them.

They didn't need any kind of meter, or anyone to tell them, to realize that this boy had become arguably the most powerful fighter in the tournament.

Kaolan accepted that fact.

Saw Paing was excited by the idea of someone so young with such strength.

Imai was dismayed to see how someone only a few years younger had beaten him so easily.

Ohma felt challenged. Could he beat Yuji in that state? He felt not, but his pride as a fighter prevented him from accepting that without first trying.

But by far the most affected by the boy's change was none other than Raian Kure, who seemed furious at the sight of Yuji. As a Kure, he easily recognized the use of [Removal], and felt deeply irritated and confused.

How had that boy been able to use such a technique? For normal people, just using the technique for a single second would be enough to explode their muscles. But there Yuji was, using Ohma Tokita and Raian Kure's technique as if it were nothing.

Raian felt humiliated, and he didn't like that feeling. Karura's suitor or whatever Yuji was considered by his grandfather, Raian would be beating him up anyway.

But while Raian was thinking of ways to take revenge, the Patriarch of the Kure clan, Erioh Kure, could only look on with a somber expression. Katahara and Tokugawa, watching the old man in silence, could only look at each other in question.

Yuji's new strength had taken even Katahara Metsudo by surprise, but Erioh Kure seemed to have been most affected by it. 

But the President of the Kengan Association refrained from asking why. He knew that his old friend would soon tell him what was bothering him.

.

Back in the arena, Kuroki watched Yuji cautiously. The boy had become a threat he could never hope to face. 

He felt a pressure similar to the most powerful opponents he had faced in his life, and that in itself was a huge red flag.

He would be lying if he said that the boy's previous blows hadn't hurt him, and he feared that this would affect his performance, which at that point meant certain defeat.

But Kuroki would not be intimidated by this. As a master with years of experience, he could notice details that most people would be unable to, and thanks to this, he could see that Yuji Shinakawa was nowhere near his 100%.

His fingers trembled, and his feet subtly adjusted to keep him balanced. Clear signs of exhaustion, which meant it would only be a matter of time before his body collapsed.

Kuroki just had to put up with it until it happened.

He just needed to show why his defense was considered the absolute defense.

"And they're going to fight again!"

Boom!

The instant the announcer spoke, Yuji exploded towards Kuroki at an absurd speed, the old master barely reacting when a fist crashed into his forearm with enough force to push him back several meters.

Kuroki gritted his teeth as he stopped his backward momentum, his eyes narrowing as he saw steam escaping from the spot he had hit.

But Yuji wasn't finished, and that became clear when Kuroki suddenly had his wrist grabbed, his body being thrown through the air to be slammed into the ground.

But the master was quick to react, quickly kicking Yuji in the face while he was in mid-air.

But the attack didn't even move the young fighter's head, who just shrugged and smashed the old master's back into the ground, then kicked him like a soccer ball.

"He's being completely dominated!"

Watching Kuroki fly for a few meters and crash to the ground, the fighters couldn't help but say in surprise.

"That's not technique, that's sheer brute force! It's like watching Raian fight again." It was Kaneda who pointed it out, and his opinion proved to be the same as that of the other fighters.

But it wasn't the same for everyone.

"Wrong." Kaolan didn't seem to share his friend's view and quickly corrected him. "Raian fought only with the intention of hurting, nothing more. That's why most of his blows didn't carry any technique."

"But Yuji is very calm, unlike Raian."

Emphasizing his words, Kaolan pointed at Yuji, who was walking calmly towards a stunned Kuroki Gensai.

"In his first punch, he aimed for the forearm with the intention of weakening his opponent's defense. The throw served to stun him, and the kick was just in case Kuroki wasn't stunned enough." 

"Yuji's body is carrying a force that prevents him from using subtle techniques, so he's getting around it by targeting the right spots and stunning his opponent as much as he can."

"Because he knows that against Kuroki Gensai, sheer brute force would never be enough."

!

Sweeping the distance between the two, Yuji grabbed Kuroki's shoulder and lifted him with ease, smashing him to the ground again, the old master choking on blood as the pressure on his body bruised his internal organs.

About to punch the old master to the ground, Yuji jumped back when Kuroki's foot flew towards his thigh, his eyes narrowing as he realized that he was inches away from having his leg punctured.

Standing up, Kuroki raised his guard in his karate stance. From his body, a powerful intent shot through the room, an intent that quietly rivaled that of the boy in front of him.

All the previous attacks had been made with the intention of internally hurting Kuroki as much as possible, and considering the blood escaping from his mouth, it seemed to have worked. But Yuji knew that this alone wouldn't be enough.

Kuroki wouldn't just give in.

But if he carried on like this, it would only be a matter of time. At first, Yuji didn't think that his strength could overpower Kuroki, but the strength provided by both enhancement techniques ended up serving him more than he could have thought. He felt that he could easily take on Julius Reinhold or even Wakatsuki Takeshi using brute strength alone.

When it came to technique, Kuroki was arguably the best in the tournament, but when it came to brute strength, he was only ranked 6th.

It was normal for him to find it difficult to face opponents with exaggerated strength.

But force alone wouldn't kill him.

Kuroki Gensai was still alive and ready to fight.
