Chapter 116 : Fight League
Chapter 116 : Fight LeagueEver since humanity first set foot on Earth, we’ve been able to see rankings being established in every time and place on this small blue sphere floating in space.
It was no different in the oceans of the early 21st century, thanks to these six currently growling at each other while sitting around the sofa.
While having a hierarchy among friends isn’t exactly ideal, the less ideal things are in this world, the more interesting they tend to be.
Parang and friends had long since realized this fact, so they never hesitated to determine who among them was stronger, faster, and more agile.
Thus, their regular gatherings to duke it out became something of an annual tradition.
Well, it’s not like they’re actual battle maniacs. There are some practical benefits too.
If you’re wondering in what way, it’s obviously for training purposes.
To train properly, you naturally need to fight against opponents who are either equal to or stronger than yourself.
Or at the very least, spar with someone who has good endurance.
That’s how you can refine your techniques or develop new combination moves.
The problem is, to find a sea creature that can withstand Oceanos’s serious punch at that level, you’d have to
─Gasp
─LOL gasp
─How dare you say that about the channel owner
“What’s the head-to-head record between these two?”
“Ah, they’ve fought six times so far, and they’ve all been draws.”
Yuna threw out a well-timed question, and Vertea caught it smoothly.
“What?! All draws after six matches? It must be quite evenly matched to achieve that.”
“Well, that’s part of it, but their fighting styles are both incredibly crude. Even when it seems even, as soon as the fight drags on a bit, they both go all out against each other. When the fights end, they’re always both knocked out. Though each claims they knocked the other out first…”
To the side, Xiao sat cross-legged, looking contemptuously at the two glaring at each other in the arena.
Her voice carried a hint of disdain.
When the broadcast showed the barefoot beauty sitting cross-legged with a contemptuous expression, the chat naturally exploded.
─Holy shiiit
─KYAAAAAAAAAAAAA
─These beasts are something else AWOOOOOO GRRR WOOF WOOF
‘Why do they enjoy showing contempt so much, just like last time…’
Parang’s eternal question only grew.
Well, anyway. Amidst the exploding dopamine, the battle began.
KWAAAANG-!!!
Surprisingly, it was Elvira who opened the battle, launching forward with the sound of cannon fire.
Strictly speaking, there was no type advantage between Russell and Elvira. One style involved rushing the opponent with countless explosives to blow them up, while the other involved rushing in with incredible agility to bite the opponent up close.
It was a battle of whether Russell could reach Elvira before she could blow him up, or whether Elvira could blow Russell up before he could reach her.
From this perspective, Elvira charging at Russell first was practically like forfeiting the battle.
However, as soon as the battle began, Elvira summoned and detonated a mine behind herself.
She was using the explosive force to quickly approach Russell.
“Whoa!! That, that!! Isn’t that completely outside common sense?!”
Yuna threw out the question in a voice half exaggerated, half serious, as she watched this outrageous tactic.
The chat also reacted with disbelief at this beyond-common-sense tactic.
─Whoa why is she getting close
─She’s crazy lololol
─I knew it when she said she handles explosives, she’s just insane
─Well, she must have some plan
Well, as the last chat message said, Elvira did have something in mind.
Good lord, in a battle where the title of ‘I’m stronger than you’ was at stake, there was no way Elvira would act to lose.
Oceanos knew this too, so they simply told Yuna and the viewers calmly.
“Keep watching. You’ll see why she’s doing this.”
And Russell, also knowing why Elvira was charging at him, didn’t meet her head-on but sharply changed direction upward to escape her trajectory.
And right after Russell escaped Elvira’s path.
KWAAAANG!!!! KWARRRNG!!!!! PUBUBUBUBUBUBUNG!!!!! KWAAANG!!
KWANG!! KWAAANG!! KWANG!!! KWAAANG!!!!!
From Elvira’s starting point to her destination, what looked like thousands of explosions occurred in a straight line one after another.
At this terrifying explosion that seemed completely unhinged, Sin Yuna’s jaw nearly hit the floor.
“Wh-what was that!!! That explosion just now!! What in the…!!!!”
─What the hell lololololololol
─How can that sound even exist underwater
─That firepower isn’t even human anymore
─Told you she’s crazy…
In that moment, both Yuna and the viewers watching the broadcast could all feel it.
That today, one legendary video – no, perhaps quite a few – would be born.
