Chapter 1288 Return Of The Pirates (18)(Chapter Preview)
“Guys! “I think everyone can’t wait any longer …” A few minutes later, everything was ready. The broken Gong voice came to the middle of the boxing ring again, heating up the atmosphere.”This is the first time since the ‘deck fighting tournament’ was set up that a contestant outside of the pirate group has participated. And they are going to challenge … Our one and only … The Vikings!”
For a time, the crowd was in an uproar.
The majority of the Pirates still supported the Viking Youyou in this ‘restricted’ competition, and his consecutive victories were unquestionable.
However, there were also many people who placed their bets on snow. There was no other reason other than the fact that his odds were extremely high.
It was not that brother garlic and the others wanted to raise the odds, but Snow’s slightly thin body did not look like he could take a beating …
Snow’s figure was not bad compared to an ordinary person ‘s, and it was obvious that he worked out regularly. But … Compared to this group of muscular Pirates whose arms were thicker than your legs … He was still a thin man.
“The two of you, please come to the middle.” After attracting the audience’s attention, the man with the broken Gong gathered two fighters and announced the start of the fight.
According to the rules, he still patiently repeated the rules, and then asked,””Do you all understand?”
Snow and the Vikings immediately gave him an affirmative answer.
After getting a reply, the man with the broken Gong voice took a few steps back.”Good! “Then … I announce … The match between the most talented and most gorgeous man in two thousand years of Oort God fist,’dark snow’, and our ‘ 46 matches, 46 wins, outstanding skills, and the fearsome defending champion,’ dark snow ‘…”
He mixed the introduction and opening speech together, dragging out a long sentence …
“Now … Begin!” The man with the broken Gong voice could exit the ring at the same time as he finished a sentence every time, as if he had eyes on the back of his head.
“Ha …” The moment the croaky voice said the word “begin,” snow slowly raised his left fist with a smile and stretched it forward.
This action of his in the boxing ring could be considered a display of “goodwill.”
Of course, he was not asking the opponent to show mercy. It was just a polite act similar to the handshake between the captains of both teams before a football game.
At this moment, as an opponent, he should also extend his fist and lightly bump it with the other party’s extended fist … Only then would he enter the ‘battle state’.
This was common knowledge, the Viking naturally knew of it. Furthermore, he was a man with the air of a general. Hence, he didn’t even think about it, and replied.
Who knew …
Huuuu
Just as the Viking slowly extended his right hand, preparing to meet his opponent’s outstretched fist …
However, snow suddenly took a step forward and swung his right arm to punch at the other party’s head.
“F * ck!” The Vikings were immediately startled.
To put it more accurately, Snow’s behavior was like … When he extended his right hand to shake hands with you, he would slap you with his left hand when you let your guard down.
Even the Pirates couldn’t stand such a tasteless matter. The crowd suddenly burst out in waves of “honrichett” and “wodfock”.
But no matter what … This was not against the rules, so the competition continued.
“Bastard kid …” At the critical moment, the Viking instinctively lowered his head and retreated, using his left shoulder to receive the punch. At the same time, he was cursing inwardly,”you actually dare to play such a small trick in front of me …”
Due to the suddenness of the punch, the Viking’s defensive movements and strength adjustment weren’t in place, causing his left arm to feel slightly numb.
Fortunately, he was very experienced and did not give snow a chance to pursue him. He immediately raised his left arm and threw two jabs at snow.
He didn’t throw out these two punches to gain any advantage, but to “use offense as defense” and force his opponent to retreat.
Tsk … It’s as flawless as I imagined … On the other side, snow was thinking in his heart, using extreme actions to minimize the damage from my sneak attack and quickly using his arm span advantage … Limiting my pursuit and obtaining precious time to adjust … Can such a ‘King of Fighters’ opponent really be defeated by ‘means’…
Indeed, even now, snow did not have much confidence in this matter. But … Thinking about it, since brother Jue had forced him onto this stage, he had to give it his all to win this match.
In the next second, snow raised both his fists, protecting the sides of his head. He lowered his upper body as much as possible and charged into the Viking’s arms.
“What are they doing now?” The Vikings didn’t panic, nor did they lose their bearings.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
Following that, Snow’s left hook bypassed the Viking’s defensive arm and struck the latter’s torso from the side.
With the sturdy muscles of the Vikings, a few punches to their torsos would definitely be fine …
After being struck, the Viking took advantage of the situation and retreated. With steady steps, he circled his opponent in a clockwise direction, and threw a left straight punch at snow.
Bang Bang Bang
The punch was powerful, but snow had already returned to a defensive posture and firmly held his head with the outer sides of his fists.
After blocking this attack, snow did the same thing again and charged forward.
Hu hu hu hu
This time, he launched a few quick short uppercuts at close range, aiming for the Viking’s chin.
“So that’s how it is …” The Viking retreated, dodging and evading, yet he still didn’t suffer any substantial damage.”So this is your plan …”
The Vikings retreated and circled around, but snow followed them like a shadow, maintaining a low defensive stance as he charged into the enemy’s embrace.
“From the very start, he gave up on his ‘counter attack’, completely ignoring my actions, and adopted this ‘continuous close combat pressure’ approach …” With that thought, the Viking retreated to a corner of the ring, and was caught by snow.
Pfft pfft pfft pfft pfft
As he hugged his opponent, snow was racing against time … He took the opportunity to hit the right side of his opponent’s torso.
“In close combat … Using this kind of weak and defenseless punching … Continuously attacking my liver …” The Viking laughed coldly in his heart.”Hmph … I’ve been looking forward to it for quite a while, but in the end … This is the level of my opponent …”
“Kid …” At this moment, the Viking suddenly spoke,”did you think … That after entering the ‘close combat’ state, you could bring the match into your unrated rhythm?”
Snow did not respond to him. He just continued to swing his fist silently.
“Indeed,’deck boxing’ doesn’t have an on-field referee. After you stick to us like this … No one will come over to separate us.” “But you seem to have overlooked something …” The Viking said.
As he said this, he stretched out his arms and hugged snow.
“What?” In an instant, Snow’s arms and torso above his elbows were wrapped around by the other party’s thick arms and body. He couldn’t move.”This …”
“Hey! Judge!” Feng bujue saw that the situation was not good, so he turned to the man with the broken Gong and shouted,”what the hell? Did you switch to a classical wrestling style?”
“It’s always allowed to carry out a killing. ” The man with the broken Gong voice replied calmly,”just as the Vikings have said … We don’t have an in-game judge for this match. Therefore, we have to think of a way to prevent the behavior of ‘going forward to hug the other party at any time and trying to slowly wear them down in a close-range battle of attrition’ from happening again. “
“Tsk … Shouldn’t you have told us about this before the fight started?” Feng bujue scoffed, but he did not go any further to complain because he knew that there was no point in talking about that now.πΆπ±πxt.ππt
“Ha …” On the other hand, snow, who was suffering from the ‘hug kill’ of the Vikings, naturally heard the conversation between brother Jue and the man with the broken Gong voice. He immediately smiled bitterly and thought to himself, I was too careless … No wonder no one used the ‘close combat technique’ in the previous two rounds. The reason why the four boxers were ‘walking’ from start to finish was because … No one wanted to get close to the other and play this kind of game of strength …
While he was thinking, his body was already making creaking sounds. It seemed that the bones in his arms and the ribs in his torso had almost reached their limits.
“Kid … A bone fracture isn’t considered a ‘disability’. If you think that you can make me lose by gritting your teeth and breaking a few bones … You’re thinking too much.” The Vikings had a huge advantage in physique. “Killing” was clearly a physically exhausting task, yet he still managed to spare some energy to speak.”I advise you to surrender now. That way, you’ll suffer less …”
“Haha …” Snow laughed.”Mr. Champion … You seem to have overlooked something …”
As soon as he finished speaking, a change occurred.
Just as the surrounding spectators thought that the Vikings were about to win …… Snow exerted his strength and broke free from his opponent’s grasp.
“Hmm…You …” The Viking was also surprised. The strength of this skinny little kid in his arms had far exceeded his expectations.
“I was just a little confused earlier because I didn’t know that I could use this kind of movement … I wasn’t prepared.” Snow also struggled out of his opponent’s embrace as he gritted his teeth and said,”if we’re really going to fight with our strength … I’m not at a disadvantage …”
He was right. In terms of “physical fitness,” the players were definitely not at a disadvantage.
Although snow, who had been training the entire time, was weaker in terms of masteries, the character’s “physical fitness” was only related to the “level.”
The physical fitness of a level 40 player had long surpassed the standard of an ordinary human … By a lot.
The “restrictive gloves” would only “limit combat power beyond a certain value”, but it would not “reduce the wearer’s combat power by proportion”. For example, if the limit of the boxing glove was “below ten,” then … If a person with a combat power of 15 wore it, it would become 10; And if a person with combat strength of 10 wore it, it would also be 10.
Without a doubt, the Viking and Snow’s original combat strength was above the limits of the boxing gloves. Therefore, regardless of who was stronger or weaker, after wearing the boxing gloves, their strength and speed were almost the same.
The difference between them … Was mainly reflected in the aspects of height, weight, arm span, and muscle strength.
But in this “contest” of strength, these advantages of the Vikings were utterly useless …
“Damn it …” After a few seconds, the Viking gave up. He knew that in this “hold” and “struggle” duel, the latter would be more energy-conserving, and if this continued, it would be disadvantageous for him.
Therefore, he suddenly diverted the force and took two steps to the side. He took advantage of the situation and threw two punches at snow.
Snow’s reaction was not slow either. As soon as the other party released his grip, he knew that there would be a follow-up move. He also continuously dodged … Once again, he assumed an extremely low posture, swung his body left and right, and once again displayed the pressure tactic of constantly charging forward.
“Do you really think you can win with this kind of fist?” The Viking retreated, defended, counter-pressed with his fists, and maintained a distance.”If this were a proper match, your tactics would probably be considered successful … Those superficial punches of yours on the outer side of my torso will be used as a basis for judgment at the end of the round.” He paused for a moment, and his movements were not messy at all as he spoke.”But in this boxing match on this deck … Do you think … My stamina will be exhausted by your nibbling attacks first, or will you be the first to be caught and KO?”
Snow didn’t respond to the Viking’s words. He continued with his original plan and rhythm, continuing with his unsightly, tangled attacks that prevented both sides from using any advanced techniques.
“Hey! The one called snow! You’re too shameless!”
“What man with the most gorgeous moves! Even if I go up, I’ll be stronger than you!”
“Fight properly, bastard! This isn’t a fight between kids!”
“Vikings! Kill him! Good luck!”
The content of such a competition would definitely cause dissatisfaction among the audience. Their reaction had already explained everything.
“He is indeed an admirable opponent …” Ambitionist, who was standing on the sidelines, had a serious expression on his face.”Even though we used that tactic, he didn’t rush at all. Even though he was angry, his control of his body was still so calm …”
“To put it simply … They weren’t brought into our rhythm.” Feng bujue added.
“Yeah … If it were someone else, they might have given up on ‘beautiful boxing’ and used the same tactics as us, hitting Snow’s liver in the middle of the fight.” Ambitionist said.
“That’s normal,” Feng bujue said.”That’s how the strong should be … If he gives up what he’s best at and lowers his level to fight the weak … The risk of losing will increase.” He paused for half a second.”Of course, these … Are all within my calculations.” His gaze shifted to the Viking’s face, and he laughed.”Please fight fair and square to the end……Lose this match without any qualms …..”
