Chapter 387 - True lron Style, High Might!

''RAWR!'' The Deadly Beast's menacing roar echoed in the Island of Grandmasters.

The rest of the Mutated Beasts stopped moving further and stopped only five meters away from the Chosen Ones.

The Chosen Ones gulped with cold sweat pouring down their backs.

Looking at the Deadly Beast in the distance, no one could stay calm in front of such a powerful presence.

Ichiro straightened his back and, without fear, looked at the monstrous beast.

''Need help?'' Lord asked with slight fear. Looking at the monstrous beast, he knows that their chances of survival are very slim.

And it looked like Deadly Beast was targeting Ichiro for some reason, making the current situation very dire.

''Sigh… Nah.'' Ichiro rejected his good will and decided to fight by himself at first.

Lord nodded and backed out with Lone and Ares, but they didn't retreat too far away.

They will be ready to save Ichiro if needed.

Among the Chosen Ones, Avery looked at Ichiro's muscular back and thought about their battle.

The battle changed him and his future. His body was still aching after remembering the beating he received, and he knew better than anyone that Ichiro wasn't the one they should be worried about.

''Grrr…'' The Deadly Beast growled and showed Ichiro its monstrous fist, ''Power… You… Like… Power?''

''Mm… I like being in control.'' Ichiro replied, unsure whether the Deadly Beast could understand such complex words.

''I… see…'' But, the Deadly Beast understood and pointed towards the sky, ''Power… Is… Control.''

On his fingertip, a small ball-like item appeared that glowed in purple.

''Power…'' Suddenly, the surrounding environment became colder bit by bit.

The temperature decreased significantly, and all the heat around the forest started gathering on the small purplish ball!

''Ughh… So cold!'' The Chosen Ones started complaining, and it didn't take long for their lips to start turning blue.

''Haahhh…'' A puff of cold air left Lord's mouth, but he, Lone, and Ares weren't as cold as the other Chosen Ones because they were pretty near the purplish ball that was emitting all the heat that was transferred from nearby environment.

Ichiro's body was drenched in sweat, and he felt like he was being bathed in lava!

The Deadly Beast glared at Ichiro and said with its monstrous voice, ''Power… Is… Control!''

The purplish ball started glowing even brighter, with heat escaping the ball bit by bit.

It couldn't contain all the heat, and some managed to escape, but that purple ball alone could destroy a mountain or two!

The Deadly Beast opened its palm and covered the ball with it.

Once the ball disappeared from the view, the heat returned to the environment, and the previous cold disappeared.

The Deadly Beast opened its palm, and the purple ball had disappeared. ''Control…''

Ichiro gulped and thought, 'For a rampaging beast… That control is insane.'

''Fight…?'' The Deadly Beast lowered its arms and asked.

''Fight…'' Ichiro clenched his fist and pulled his head back.

The Deadly Beast frowned and wondered what the human was planning.

Ichiro did something no one expected.

''Time to add another technique…'' Ichiro murmured, and his face had veins popping, ''True Iron Style, Headbutt!''

*BAM!*

Ichiro's forehead struck the Deadly Beast in the face, making a loud cracking noise that everyone heard.

*Spurt!*

A small trail of blood left the Deadly Beast's nose that started having the shape of a human's nose.

On the other hand, Ichiro had a significant red mark on his forehead.

''Argh…'' He staggered backwards while rubbing the painful forehead, ''Damn, that hurt!''

''Grr…'' The Deadly Beast shook its head, and once the previous shock disappeared, its menacing red eyes were aimed at Ichiro.

The Chosen Ones started whispering with each other; most of them were thinking about what Ichiro was doing.

*SWOOSH*

Once the Deadly Beast's furry feet touched the ground, the ground cracked, and the humanoid body of the lion disappeared.

Ichiro was already making his move and did a simple elbow strike to his right, and soon, Deadly Beast appeared right there!

The Deadly Beast looked surprised that Ichiro managed to predict his next attack!

*POW!*

The elbow struck the lion's jaw, making the Deadly Beast staggered several steps, but no apparent signs of damage.

''Grr…'' The lion touched its jaw and felt only a slight stinging sensation, but nothing grave.

Ichiro took a quick step forwards, twisted his waist, lowered his shoulder, and stretched his arm forwards.

Everyone watched as Ichiro's punch was nearing the Deadly Beast's face.

*SMACK!*

The punch struck the face, but the Deadly Beast tanked the punch and didn't even take a step back.

*BAM*

The Deadly Beast's kick landed straight on Ichiro's thigh, causing much more damage than Ichiro managed to do at him.

''Ugh!'' Ichiro fell down on his knees with a bruise mark forming around his thigh and drops of blood dripping down from his mouth.

*BAM!*

The Deadly Beast ruthlessly slammed his feet into Ichiro's head and made his head crash into the durable ground.

The Chosen Ones paled and had a hunch that the fight would end like that, but they didn't expect it to happen so soon!

''Ichiro!'' Lord shouted and wanted to help him but was stopped by Lone and Ares.

''What are you two doing?!'' He asked angrily but saw Lone's and Ares shaking their hands.

''Ugh…'' Suddenly, everyone heard a grunt of pain as Ichiro was slowly standing up.

''Grr…'' The Deadly Beast opened its large jaw and tried to scare Ichiro by growling.

''Heh…'' But Ichiro laughed, and once he was in a crouching position, he used all his strength on his legs and jumped straight up!

Everyone wondered what he was doing, but soon they saw Ichiro's leg smoking!

''True Iron Style, High Might!'' Ichiro fell down like a rocket, and once his bottom of foot touched the Deadly Beast's arm, something no one expected happened!

*CRACK!*

''RAAAAWR!'' The Deadly Beast's right arm broke in half with bones popping out!

''What?!'' Chosen Ones screamed in shock, and Lord, Lone, and Ares had their mouths wide open with visible shock.

''True Iron Style, High Might!'' Ichiro spun around and unleashed a powerful back kick, which struck the Deadly Beast in the torso.

*SMACK!*

''Grr…'' The Deadly Beast crashed through multiple trees but seemed somewhat fine, even though its arm was barely hanging with the help of flesh tissues and bones.
