Chapter 388 - High Human's Might

*Bam!*

''Ugh…'' Ichiro was being pushed back repeatedly.

The Deadly Beast, who got its arm broken, became ruthless and used its claws, legs, limbs, and even its teeth to try to kill Ichiro!

Ichiro's torso had a large cut wound, which was gushing with blood, staining his clothing in dark red colors.

*SWOOSH*

Suddenly, the Deadly Beast disappeared and moved like a bolt of lightning as it suddenly appeared on top of Ichiro!

Ichiro only managed to raise his head and saw a smelly foot landing straight on his face.

*CRASH*

Ichiro's body crashed onto the ground, which made the earth crack.

The Chosen Ones stumbled around and watched as the cracks reached all the way to where they were!

''RAWR!'' The Mutated Beasts started cheering for Lion's victory.

''He is dead…'' One of the Chosen Ones thought aloud and watched how the Deadly Beast was standing on top of the fallen black-haired youth's face.

The rest of the Chosen Ones thought that as well.

''Obviously, he died— he was foolish enough even to fight back!''

''He should have run away— this is what happens when you are way too arrogant.''

''Well… Less competition, I guess.''

Avery, who was standing right next to them, heard their whispers.

He scoffed and said aloud, ''He won't go down that easily.''

The Chosen Ones around him frowned and wondered what he meant by that.

Ichiro was obviously dead.

On top of one of the mountains.

''Hahaha!'' Suna laughed and looked at Azura's pale face, ''See? Your foolish boyfriend is now dead!''

Azura's face had a tinge of pain, but she hadn't lost faith in him.

She has absolute faith in his abilities.

Sin looked at the battlefield with slight disappointment. He did his own research about Ichiro, but what he saw wasn't what he imagined.

He thought that Ichiro had the potential to reach high, but a sprout of doubt started rising in him.

Shinu kept tapping his chin, but then, his eyes that were filled with wisdom widened in shock.

''Hah…'' An chuckle escaped his mouth, and he could barely believe the things he was seeing.

''Teacher, what is it?'' Grandmasters around him asked curiously.

''Ichiro's body sure is different…'' It was the only thing Shinu said, which gave more questions than answers.

Back on the battlefield.

*BOOM!*

The ground suddenly exploded, sending debris of earth flying around and even hitting a few of the Mutated Beasts in the head, which killed them instantly!

The pieces of debris didn't fly far enough to hit the Chosen Ones.

The Deadly Beast was sent flying several meters because of the shockwave, but its body was completely fine.

''Hahhhh…'' Suddenly, a deep breath was heard from the place where the explosion happened.

All around the explosion site, a thick cloud of smoke was disturbing everyone's field of vision, and they couldn't correctly see what had happened.

But then… A muscular figure climbed out of the pit.

Ichiro's body was smoking with a puff of smoke leaving his mouth and nose.

The Chosen Ones looked shocked, like they were seeing something that completely changed their view of things.

Avery grabbed his chest and grimaced in pain.

Lord, Lone, and Ares had looks of amazement.

On top of the mountain.

''Oh my gosh!'' Luna stood up with excitement, ''Woooooow!'' She quickly grabbed a camera from her purse and started taking pictures.

''This is… Ichiro?'' Zoe looked at Azura, who was smugly smiling.

''What the hell…'' Suna rubbed her eyes and wondered what the hell is she seeing!

Secret Geniuses that were hiding in plain sight straightened their backs and looked much more concentrated than before.

Especially the number 1 ranked…

A young man in his 18s was sitting alone with a bottle of tea and teacups in front of him. He had black hair that reached all the way to his nape, green eyes, and well-defined facial features.

At first glance, he didn't look like someone who was at the top of the younger generation, but he had something no one else in the world had.

An ability to stay undefeated.

Back on the battlefield.

''Punch!'' Ichiro screamed, and its giant fist struck the Deadly Beast in the jaw, but it didn't make even a dent in it.

The Deadly Beast's slap landed on Ichiro's cheek, making him crash to the ground with a rain of blood leaving his mouth.

*BAM!*

The ground quaked once Ichiro's body fell down.

He used his trembling arms and tried to stand up but was instantly pushed back down by the Deadly Beast.

''Strong… You… Are… Not.'' The Deadly Beast's claws increased in length, and he slashed them straight at Ichiro's nape, which would mean the end of him.

Chosen Ones closed their eyes, thinking that it was over.

''Royal Style, Majestic Lion!'' Lord leaped through the air and unleashed his own attack but will never make it in time!

Something unexpected happened once the sharp claws were about to touch Ichiro's nape.

''Kukuku…'' A creepy laughter appeared behind the Deadly Beast.

The Deadly Beast's pupils contrasted as he felt his strength leaving his body.

He turned around and glared at the black-haired youth, who was grinning while holding a black book.

''GRRR!'' The Deadly Beast looked enraged and slapped Darkel away.

*SMACK*

*CRASH!*

Darkel's body crashed through multiple doors, landing somewhere in the bushes with no signs of life.

The Deadly Beast turned his head back, but then Ichiro's punch landed straight on his nose!

*SPURT!*

The nose broke from the impact, sending a gush of blood flying around.

''RAWR!'' Ichiro quickly took advantage of it and jumped in the air with his muscular body.

''True Iron Style, High Human's Might!'' Ichiro unleashed his most powerful kick so far.

*SMACK!*

The kick perfectly landed on the Deadly Beast's neck, making a sound that no one likes to hear.

A sound of something breaking.

*CRACK!*

The Deadly Beast fell down on his knees with his head facing the wrong way!

''Ugh!'' A dark red blood gushed out of his monstrous jaw, and it looked like he was about to die, but then…

The Deadly Beast grabbed his head and twisted it!

*CRACK*

The head was facing the right way again, and he looked angrier than ever before!

''Kekeke…'' The solemn atmosphere disappeared after the laughing individual left the forest.

Darkel shook his head and said, ''My head feels funny!''

Ichiro frowned and wondered how he survived. He should have died by ten times over.

Even the Deadly Beast looked shocked.

''Hehe, bad kitty!'' Darkel grinned and cracked his knuckles.

Ichiro perked up his ears and turned around.

Lord, Lone, and Ares walked next to him and looked ready to fight.

Ichiro rubbed his painful neck and thought that it was a little bit too arrogant of him to think that maybe he could defeat the Deadly Beast.

''I can't let this furry bastard kill you.'' Everyone looked surprised as Avery appeared next to Ichiro, ''Only I am allowed to kill you.''

''Hmph.'' Ichiro snorted and looked straight towards the Deadly Beast.

On top of the spectator mountain.

Shinu widened his eyes in amazement as he saw six young men about to fight against Deadly Beast.

He looked at Ichiro, and only one thought, ''Leader…''
