Jeet Kune Do's biu jye is also notoriously ruthless and cunning.
Izumi didn't want to trade his life for Yato's legs, but if he released Yato's legs, he couldn't guarantee that Yato would release his neck as well.
So he pretended not to hear.
Anyway, if this drags on, he definitely won't be the one who can't take it anymore.
But that's what it says.
Chu Jianquan's heart was far from at ease.
He became extremely attentive.
He constantly monitored Yato's shifts in body weight, especially his muscle exertion.
No matter what the other party does, he can predict their actions based on these clues.
This is also the essence of Aikido and Jujutsu, which emphasize using softness to overcome hardness in their techniques of subjugation.
only……
"This is not good. Because of the lack of oxygen, I am having difficulty maintaining a high level of concentration. If the other party really intends to do something to my head, I am afraid I will not be able to react immediately. Moreover... the normal trembling of the body caused by the pain this kid is experiencing will also confuse my judgment to some extent."
Upon first seeing the spring, he secretly lamented his misfortune.
This situation reminded him of a movie he had seen before.
The two gunmen pointed at each other.
No one dared to fire.
No one dared to put down their guns.
Because no matter what you do, you can't guarantee your own safety, so you have to stay vigilant and not let your guard down even during a standoff.
"Hey... kid, let's make a deal, how about we both let go?"
Chu Jianquan managed to utter a few words with great difficulty.
"What? Is that not enough, uncle?"
Yato gritted his teeth and said.
"A mature man wouldn't use such an irrational method to solve a problem!"
Chu Jianquan forced a smile, his voice broken and hesitant.
"If I say 'no,' wouldn't that make me seem too childish? Okay! I'll count to three and release them all at once!"
"it is good."
"one."
"two"
"three!"
The moment the words fell.
They both moved at the same time!
Chapter 64
At that moment, everyone present widened their eyes.
The scene before my eyes was simply too shocking.
It is a classic fight in combat sports, and its fame has spread throughout the industry, making it a source of admiration for future generations.
Almost at the same time Yato shouted "three," Izumi released Yato's legs as promised, but then, with lightning speed, grabbed Yato's wrists, kicked off with both legs, and flipped over like a swallow taking flight, using the force of Yato's upper body pulling her upside down.
In the blink of an eye, they found themselves face to face with Yato.
But Chu Jianquan was still in mid-air before he even landed.
Suddenly, a flying knee strike was aimed at Yato's face.
The movements were executed flawlessly in one go, achieving the ultimate in artistry.
In particular, his action of grabbing Yato's arms prevented Yato from raising his arms to block the flying knee, and he couldn't even escape.
This is similar to a situation where someone is lying on the ground with their hands unusable, and suddenly someone runs up to them and kicks them in the head.
Ninety-nine percent of fighters would only suffer a bruised face, a shattered nose, and a concussion when facing Izumi's attack; there is no other possible outcome.
This is truly an unsolvable situation!
However, Yato, the person involved, was not actually as blank-minded or dominated by fear and panic as the audience outside the venue might have imagined.
If we really want to talk about negative emotions...
Perhaps only... anger?
"You old bastard, you really have a dirty mind!"
Noticing the change in Yato's expression, Izumi Hatsumi gave a strange smile.
"Sorry, the adult world isn't as simple as you think."
No words.
Everything happened in the instant their eyes met.
boom!
Suddenly, Izumi seemed to hear a loud bang, which was hard to describe as either an explosion or something else. Immediately afterward, it felt as if someone had shoved Yato from behind, and his forehead landed directly on Yato's knee.
"Oops!"
The knee strike clearly hit.
But upon first seeing Quan, his pupils contracted.
Instead of feeling happy, I was alarmed.
Because his execution of the movements was too poor!
Even the hardest fist will be 'pushed away' if you put your face against it before throwing it, greatly reducing the power of the punch.
His flying knee was also one.
The movements may seem small, but they can unleash a lot of destructive power. In reality, this destructive power is the result of many factors such as weight, speed, and center of gravity.
At this moment, Izumi had lost control of her body.
While he was in mid-air, he was thrown away by Yato.
The two fell to the ground again.
It smashed countless cracks into the marble floor.
"...Are you even human?"
First, Izumi quickly got up from the ground. Although he had fallen the hardest, it was nothing for a top-tier fighter. Instead, he glanced at the spot where Yato had been lying and looked surprised.
There, two marks resembling bomb craters appeared.
But even so, this 'crater' is huge.
It is three or four times larger than a fist.
In addition, Izumi noticed that Yato's toenails had cracked and were bleeding.
It was obvious that the kid had used the reaction force from kicking the ground with both feet to launch his body like a cannonball, thus interrupting his knee strike in time.
But even after achieving this level of perfection, all that happens is broken nails and cracked skin.
However, the toe bones and soles of the feet appear to be fine.
Upon first seeing Izumi, he couldn't help but wonder if Yato's legs were made of steel.
Or, is he fighting a robot disguised as a human?
You see, as the fight progresses, the skin gets hot and red, and even steam rises from it.
Someone needs to do something about this! Letting robots compete is just too unfair!
Chu Jianquan was internally ranting and raving.
"It's just regular training for specific body parts. Don't you have your first-time Aikido?"
Yato asked calmly.
The slight back-and-forth movement of the ankle relieves the load from pushing off the ground.
In his heart, he felt somewhat fortunate.
Fortunately, I drew the [Iron Block], which can effectively disperse the impact and strengthen muscle toughness and bone strength; otherwise, this blow could have caused comminuted fractures of all five of my toe bones.
"Hey, stop joking. To be able to do this much is practically superhuman, isn't it? By the way, aren't you supposed to be practicing modern combat? Why do I feel like you're more of a practitioner of ancient martial arts?"
"The martial arts of the Celestial Empire are one thing, but the fact that my legs, which I twisted with joint locks, can still unleash this level of power is something that can't be achieved through training of ordinary body parts. It reminds me of kung fu like Poison Sand Palm."
Upon first meeting Quan, he calmed his breathing, assumed a fighting stance, and kept talking non-stop. It seemed as relaxed and carefree as a casual chat between friends, but in reality, it was a tactical maneuver to lower and distract the other party's vigilance.
"Is that so? This is the 'Storm Kick' from the six styles I created, representing the ultimate in kicking techniques."
Yato smiled casually.
"...Really? There are five more techniques at that level?"
Chu Jianquan was slightly surprised.
In that instant, Yato suddenly kicked out.
Do not……
It's three-legged!
The speed is so fast that it is almost integrated into a single kicking technique.
Only three leg shadows could be seen flashing by.
Although Chu Jianquan managed to dodge at the first moment, blood was still splattered all over his body, revealing three wounds that looked like they had been slashed by a large knife!
Chapter 65
"This...foot wind?!"
As the pain struck, Chu Jianquan's face stiffened.
I quickly understood the secret behind the name 'Storm Kick'.
Foot wind.
Fist wind.
Blade wind.
...These are essentially just changes in airflow caused by movement.
It appears fierce, but in reality it has almost no lethality.
Before today, Izumi Hatsukami was also one of those who agreed with this view.
But that only applies up to today.
"Using a kick to generate airflow and injure people from a distance... How can this be called Poison Sand Palm? Am I fighting a character from some surreal novel? Even being unreasonable has its limits! I was so naive to think that the damage to the ground was just caused by the force!"
Chu Jianquan retreated while secretly smiling bitterly.
"In the face of a 'storm,' even floating clouds can only dissipate."
Yato unleashed a barrage of kicks with both legs, while simultaneously verbally demoralizing his opponent.
It's true that Izumi's agility attribute is higher than his.
But fighting isn't simply about who can run the fastest.
Chu Jianquan couldn't run with his back to him, so retreating required more agility in his steps, which limited his speed. Meanwhile, Chu Jianquan kept chasing him, making him appear to be slightly faster than Chu Jianquan for a moment!
