Master.

Are you sure this is okay?

Huh? Are you worried?

Well, yes.

Plus, it's time for the security check. We need to hurry.

It's fine.

Remember this. Making them wait is part of the game.

You mean, making Muteba wait?

I'm talking about the audience.

While we're doing this, everyone is getting pumped up with excitement.

Right...

Can't you hear them?

Huh?

Sekibayashi! Sekibayashi!

Sekibayashi! Sekibayashi!

Sekibayashi! Sekibayashi!

All right!

Sekibayashi! Sekibayashi!

Let's go!

Sekibayashi! Sekibayashi!

THE CLOWN

Sekibayashi! Sekibayashi!

TAKERU KIOHZAN, AFFILIATED FIGHTER FOR MAGATANIEN

Man, this is so sickening.

Takeru, no need to be jealous.

You're the one who wanted to watch up close.

Shut up! I came to watch him lose.

Now, Sekibayashi.

Let me see how strong...

your conviction is.

This is amazing.

Sekibayashi has completely won their hearts in the first round

Bunch of bandwagon fans.

Hey, why are you sitting next to me?

But I guess that's what makes him impressive.

They want to know what this pro-wrestler dude will do next.

Plus, his opponent is that nasty destroyer.

You're right. Muteba is not someone you can defeat easily.

I wonder who's stronger.

Yes.

Hey, where's Kazuo?

He's with Ohma.

He can watch the match there too.

I see.

GAME TWO

He brought death along with him.

No man stays alive where he walks!

The strongest mercenary! The walking legend of massacre!

Will the blind killing machine

cover the arena with blood again?

Standing 199 cm tall and weighing 122 kg,

his Kengan match record is one win and no losses.

Representing Iwami Heavy Industries,

also know as "The Genocider,"

Muteba Gizenga!

TOMARI TOHGO, PRESIDENT OF IWAMI HEAVY INDUSTRIES

Muteba Gizenga.

The strongest mercenary in Africa.

Those miserable jerks!

Of all the ships, they attacked ours!

You can use any means.

Just get my products back!

Use any means, huh?

I like the sound of that.

You made a good purchase, Tomari Tohgo.

It's gonna get a little rough,

but I guarantee the safety of your products.

Then, let me get changed.

Hang on a sec.

Hm? What is it?

Who cares about clothes? Just leave them anywhere.

You amateur.

You're pissing me off!

EXPENSIVE

Look at my clothes.

Every single one of them deserves to be handled carefully.

I don't care.

A man shouldn't be playing dress up!

This is why I don't like amateurs.

Stop that! It's annoying.

Fashion is not something you care about just for yourself.

If you don't care about what others think, you're only pleasing yourself

and you need to dress for the occasion.

There are dress codes for weddings and funerals, right? I mean...

Fine. I'll listen to you later, so could you just go and do your job?

Never mind. I'll tell you the rest when this mission is over.

Wait! I'll lower the helicopter!

It's fine.

I'm the strongest human being.

Geez.

Nice.

Hey. I brought them death.

You killed a bunch of armed pirates in less than two minutes.

"The grim reaper of Congo." "The legendary mercenary of massacre."

I guess the rumors were true.

You didn't ask me to rescue the sailors,

so I let them die.

You're the one who told me to use any means.

It doesn't bother me.

After all, they were weapon traders too.

They must've been aware of the risks.

How scary.

You know, if we just look at the numbers,

I bet you have killed more people than me.

Don't you feel any remorse?

Huh? Remorse?

You must be kidding!

They are the worst kind of pirates in the area.

Bunch of losers who only know how to kill and steal.

The value of life is unequal!

They have no money! No education!

And they don't feel what you call "remorse"!

On top of that, they tried to steal my products.

There's no reason I'd let these losers live!

You're so scary.

You're a scary woman.

But I agree with you.

Those with no money or power should live their life accordingly.

So...

How much does this "fighter" get paid?

I made Shikano promise

that the loser will submit to the winner.

Use any means.

Muteba!

I'm betting on you!

Gouge his eyes out!

Jerry, what do you think are the highlights of this match?

All right! Let me tell you!

Pro-wrestling fight style is Sekibayashi's strength

and his weakness.

As we've seen in the first round,

Muteba is a cold-blooded ruthless fighting machine.

He will use whatever means to defeat his opponent.

The result of this match will depend on

if Sekibayashi can get Muteba to fight him in pro-wrestling style.

If he couldn't, I'd be worried for Sekibayashi's life!

His life? That's terrible!

This is going to be a thrilling game!

Huh?

Huh?

Huh?

A-An emergency announcement!

I've just been told that

Gandai has exercised their right to use a reserve fighter!

They are switching their fighter from this round!

Hey! What do you mean?

Here comes the reserve fighter!

He has been summoned from hell.

His height, unknown. His weight, unknown.

Who the heck are you?

Competing in a Kengan match for the first time!

His total acquired assets are 100 trillion demon world dollars!

Representing Gandai,

also known as, "The God of Hell,"

Marvelous Seki!

Huh? Oh, come on. What's he doing?

It's too early for Halloween. It's still July, you know.

Marvelous Seki!

His legendary death match style is back!

Legendary?

Marvelous Seki.

He's a heinous death match wrestler

that Sekibayashi summoned from hell.

What?

Though he was only active for one year, his impact was phenomenal.

He fought numerous grueling death matches

and plunged Chonichi Ring into the abyss of fear.

Two years ago,

he fought a legendary match against the god of wrestling,

Karugo Kurachi, called the "ten thousand fluorescent tube death match."

I thought he had returned to hell after that.

I can't believe he's here at the Annihilation Tournament!

I see. So that's how it is.

You seem to know a lot.

A love for pro-wrestling. Typical of skinny guys, huh?

Anyway, Seki's fighting style is completely different from Sekibayashi's.

Geez.

That old man, is he stupid?

He wasted his valuable chance for pro-wrestling.

Wow. He knows how to work up the crowd.

That's fine, but what's President Shikano thinking?

How should I know? Man, he's messing around.

He better not lose.

Oh, come on. First a monster and now I'm fighting a clown?

Oh, well. I'm far from normal, too.

Okay, then.

Let me make you dance,

you clown.

Hey you, mercenary!

I'll crush you in the demon world style!

Okay, fine.

Take it easy.

To be honest, I quite like pro-wrestling.

But, you know...

I think it's unfit for a place like this.

All right. Get ready!

Master.

Begin!

Eye gouging? You're gonna turn off the audience.

You freakin' amateur.

Eye gouging? You're gonna turn off the audience.

You freakin' amateur.

That's one hell of a Mongolian Chop!

Punch! Reverse horizontal chop!

Punch! Punch!

Reverse horizontal chop! And another one!

Punch! Chop! Punch! Chop! He's on a roll!

Yeah! That punch is as good as Tenryu's!

His punches are all about arm power.

It's nothing like the punch of a martial artist.

They aren't as powerful as they look.

But it's much heavier than the punches of martial artist.

It will throw you off your balance.

That's why it's difficult to block.

You scared now, mercenary?

Old man's punch is similar to a sumo thrust. It's a push punch.

It must be hard just to hold your ground with that physique, huh?

Oh, come on.

That's so obvious.

He saw right through you, you idiot!

Go!

ＤＤＴ!

ＤＤＴ!

He's done it!

Damn it! He took it hard!

You're amazing, master!

No, he used his elbow to distribute the damage.

Be careful, Sekibayashi.

Muteba hasn't lost his cool.

I don't get it.

You put yourself in a disadvantageous position?

Oh!

The tables have turned! Marvelous Seki is now in a tight spot!

If he lets go of his left hand, he'll end up in a mount position!

You wanna try grabbing my hair?

This is a little trick.

I'll teach you what "scary pro-wresting" is.

What do you think? Can you see me properly?

You've done it now.

No problem.

I'm getting a bit of noise, but I still have my left ear.

He'll be in my space in five...

three, two...

Master!

He can still see?

I've updated his position.

You really don't dodge, huh?

That's great! You'll make a perfect punching bag!

Come on.

Stop running away every time you get hit.

You're actually a coward, aren't you?

Fine, hit me all you want.

Humans are at their most vulnerable when they're attacking.

Lose a battle to win a war.

Japanese people are irrational.

What's that?

His footwork.

What's that? Are you imitating a boxer?

Imitation is enough.

All I need to do is crush a phony.

He's aiming where he's injured!

That must've hurt. No shame in that.

It just means that pro-wrestlers are human, too.

What's going on? I'm not here to see touch boxing!

What are you guys, dancing?

Muteba changed his style.

This doesn't look good.

Muteba is just a professional mercenary.

He's not a hand-to-hand combat expert.

But he's adapting to this environment at an incredible speed.

Footwork, huh?

It's a technique that's never used on a battlefield.

Though, what I do here is the same thing I do on a battlefield.

Sorry.

M-Master!

It doesn't matter who the opponent is!

I'm just going to fight this my way.

Look! Now, this is pro-wrestling!

This is a pro-wrestler!

This is Jun Sekibayashi!
