Chapter 286: Battle Against Strong!
Ichiro felt a threat that was uncommon to him from that spiral. It felt dangerous, and sometimes it didn't.
''You concentrate too much on tricks and illusions…'' A voice came behind him, which caused Ichiro's eyes to widen in shock. Behind the spiral, Giron had disappeared somewhere!
He quickly kicked behind him, but Giron caught his leg with ease and threw him to a nearby wall!
*BOOM*
Ichiro's body crashed on the metallic wall, which caused a slight dent to appear and marks of bruises on his back.
Giron wiped his hands and said, ''You are very experienced with hand-to-hand combat, I think your experience is even above me, and I am twice your age, which is an incredible achievement.''
Ichiro stood up with shaky legs and knew what Giron was talking about.
''But…'' Giron continued and did a spiral symbol to appear on the air with his finger, ''You seem very inexperienced when you are fighting against people who use something uncommon, like illusions and trickery.''
Ichiro sighed and nodded, 'Of course I am inexperienced… All my experience is mostly from my previous life, and I didn't fight against anyone who can do crazy stuff like this…'
This sparring match already taught Ichiro a lot. He can't count on his previous life's experience forever, and he has to get used to the unexpected nature of World of Titan, the world where Ichiro was currently living and place, which he can call as home.
But, Ichiro is still planning to learn more!
Corner of his mouth curved into a slight smirk as he lunged towards Giron under his surprised gaze.
[Iron Burst!]
Giron didn't expect Ichiro to keep fighting!
Ichiro has two goals during the spar.
First, to learn as much as he can.
Second, show their Coach that they don't need second-year students!
His body moved in perfect sync as he finally unleashed his first offensive technique!
[Iron Lance - Stainless-Steel!]
His hand changed from a fist to a spear-like hand!
He reeled in his arm, and once Iron Burst finished, he was only 1 meter away from Giron!
Ichiro's muscles bulged, and veins started popping in his forehead as he unleashed his attack with full strength!
His grey eyes started shining, and somehow the speed of his attack got increased by twofold!
Giron used his incredible Martial King physique to put his hands on the way with astonishing speed.
Because the speed of the attack increased… So did the strength!
Ichiro's fingers struck Giron's muscular forearm, and if it was anyone else, his fingers would have sunk inside his flesh and caused havoc inside his opponent's body, but unfortunately, his opponent was Giron!
His spear-like hand collided with Giron's forearm, but the result was very unsatisfactory for Ichiro. It felt like he was hitting a steel wall with a toothpick.
Giron had a small smile as he said, ''Techniques can't overcome the strength difference of ranks, unfortunately.''
''Let me test that theory!'' Ichiro shouted and unleashed his kick towards Giron's pelvis, but it was effortlessly blocked by Giron, who didn't seem fazed even slightest.
Without further ado, Ichiro took a decisive step forwards and unleashed a rain of blows!
His arms became blurry and afterimages as he assaulted Giron's tall and muscular figure with his strong blows.
But… Giron was still effortlessly blocking and slapping the attacks away like he was fighting against a child.
Ichiro threw at least over 100 punches in the span of 10 seconds, but of them hit the mark because Giron either blocked the punch or slapped the attacks away.
Ichiro concentrated his strength on his legs and became blurry until he completely disappeared from Giron's view!
[Iron Purgatory!]
He moved like a streak of lightning around Giron's confused figure. At one point, Ichiro became visible, but then Giron's vision got misdirected, and he lost sight of Ichiro, but he could still hear clearly Ichiro's rapid footsteps.
*SWOOSH*
Giron perked up his ears and quickly turned his head towards the left, and put his forearm as a block.
*SMACK!*
Ichiro's body became visible as his punch contacted with Giron's muscular forearm, which was bulging with muscles and veins.
''That was better, but still unable to hurt me,'' Giron said with a smirk in an attempt to make Ichiro lose concentration, but that was an unsuccessful attempt.
Ichiro looked calm as he landed on the ground and disappeared once again.
Giron looked around him and then saw a shadow attacking his leg; he quickly raised his leg and caught a slight glimpse of Ichiro before he disappeared once again.
''Whew…'' He took deep breaths and concentrated all his senses on his hearing, but then… He didn't hear the footsteps anymore…
[Iron Death - Sixth Move: Stealth]
Ichiro had a hunch what Giron was planning, and once again, his experience played a role.
Giron looked confused and at first thought that maybe Ichiro jumped into the air, but then he felt a presence behind him and a terrifying attack about to strike his body!
He quickly moved out of the way, just in time to see Ichiro's punch missing, with his face turning grim.
''Heh, you want to play like this? Fine!'' Giron clenched his fist and unleashed a terrifying punch towards Ichiro's figure!
Ichiro widened his eyes and barely managed to move his body out of the way, but the wind pressure from the wind made him roll in the ground.
He rolled in the ground for about 10 meters until he stood up and came face-to-face with Giron's fist!
His eyes widened as he listened to his instincts and made one move, which could save him from this situation!
[Steel Edge!]
His two palms struck Giron's wrist, which sent the fist to the side, barely missing his face and only an inch away from touching his cheek.
''Excellent technique!'' Giron said with admiration towards the young man who keeps impressing him day after day!
'He has gotten weaker? Crippled? He is stronger than ever!' Giron shouted inside his mind and felt like the future of High School of Fighting will lie in Ichiro's hands!
After finishing his admiration, he was planning to retreat for the time being, but then…
Ichiro's hand grabbed Giron from his collar, and he used all his strength to pull him close!
Giron widened his eyes and was about to get rid of Ichiro's hand, but then something solid struck his cheek!
[Ironical Destruction!]
Ichiro's punch landed on Giron's cheek, and the solid sound of flesh getting smacked echoed in the building, a sound that made everyone have goosebumps.
Giron widened his eyes as he touched his lip, which had a small bloodstain…
He looked at Ichiro, who was grinning.
A similar grin appeared on Giron's face as he said, ''You made me bleed… You made Martial King bleed.''
