With an epic stance, Antonio enters the arena with an arrogant look on his face. While kosei enters with a rather nervous look.
The administrator starts the match. The two of them exchange a knowing glance and run at each other, fists swinging at high speeds as both try to land a hit before the other can. As expected, Antonio easily blocks out a punch and punches him in the stomach. Antonio manages to catch kosei shoulder and sends him flying with his left hand before grabbing his opponent’s right arm and punching it with his right fist, causing him to lose balance and stumble to the floor. Antonio then kicks him in the gut, sending him spiraling downwards, and lands a solid kick to kosei’s chin. Kosei falls unconscious, but Antonio is still fighting. Antonio grabs kosei by his hair and slams him down onto the ground repeatedly while kicking him. When he realizes there isn’t any response from the unconscious boy, Antonio pulls away from him and stands up straight.
He surveys the crowd, making eye contact with everyone in the crowd. There are some people who are cheering for Antonio, but most of the audience is either shocked, or disgusted that Antonio beat kosei so easily. The audience were mostly supporting kosei after witnessing how strong he was against humbaba. The announcer clears his throat loudly and speaks, “and now we have our winner, Antonio de la Cruz.”
Before the announcer finishes his sentence, kosei gets up with a bloody face. He walks towards Antonio, glaring daggers into his eyes. “You’re gonna pay for that.” He growls darkly before he starts stomping towards him again. He lunges, and Antonio dodges the attack. This time, Antonio throws kosei to the ground again. But this time, instead of being sent crashing to the ground like the last one, he catches Antonio mid air and slams him into the ground, knocking the wind out of him. Antonio coughs a few times, struggling for air, and looks back up at kosei. His expression remains passive though as his gaze never wavers. Antonio gets up from the floor. As kosei gets up from the ground too, they start circling each other.
It has been a long time since Antonio felt the thrill of fighting someone stronger than him.
“Okay fine, I will use the devine gada on you. You are worthy of seeing my wrath."
Light comes out of Antonio's hands, he starts shining and within a few seconds, Antonio summons the devine gada.
Kosei doesn't sit back as well, he also has to end it quick or it would be impossible to beat him in a hand to hand combat. Antonio attacks immediately, and kosei tries dodging his attacks. He manages to dodge them once more but not for much longer. He jumps off his feet and runs, but he doesn't get very far when he trips over something. He looks down, and sees what he tripped over is actually Antonio. He tries getting away from Antonio, but Antonio grabs his ankle and pulls him back. He uses his free hand to grab kosei's wrist and twists it behind his back. He then proceeds to slam kosei's head into the ground. Kosei groans in pain, and Antonio releases his grip on his wrist. He then grabs kosei' leg and pulls it behind his back. He lets go of his leg and pushes kosei onto the floor roughly. Antonio gets back up and holds his hand out expectantly. Kosei stares at his extended hand for a good moment before he slowly reaches out his own hand.
Kosei manages to kick Antonio away from him, but Antonio jumps towards with with the gada. Kosei hurries himself and creates a strong barrier to protect himself from the gada. The devine gada hits the shield kosei created and cracks it up.
“What the?" Kosei is shocked to see the shield getting a c***k with just one hit.
Antonio starts rampaging over the shield and breaks it with only three hits.
“ It's over you brat. " The shield gets broken, making kosei completely vulnerable. But kosei manages to create another barrier within a second and protects himself.
“How is this possible, how do you got enough stamina to create another shield in such a short amount of time? This can't bee possible for an B rank believer." Antonio freaks out over the impossible task kosei has completed.
Kosei surprises Antonio even more by launching SHINRINYUKO a devine nature blast. It directly hits Antonio and creates a huge explosion inside the arena. Antonio goes flying and smoke covers the stadium. The crowd gasps in shock and fear, as if there is no way he should have survived that blast. But soon the smoke disperses, revealing Antonio on all fours coughing violently. Once he regains his composure, he gets up and dusts himself off.
“ Your stamina reserves are outstanding, no wonder how you beat that monster humbaba. But it's over, you are going down. "
A bit of smoke was still covering kosei, when it clears up, everyone gets shocked including Antonio. Kosei was holding the massive ‘Ikigai Bomb' a special attack very few can master.
It was still not completed, hence kosei still needed to gather more energy to fuel it up. Antonio wastes no time and charges his own gada. The devine gada gets big and all shiny, ready to smash it's opponent. Antonio rushes toward kosei to hit him, leaving kosei no other choice but to launch the Ikigai bomb at it's incompleted form.
The clash between the gada and the Ikigai bomb destroying the entire arena, both kosei and antonio gets caught up in the explosion.
The administrator gets forced to create a barrier around the arena to protect the rest of the stadium from the enormous shockwave. He can barely stand due to the powerful shockwave, and his legs feel weak beneath him. His breathing is labored, as if his lungs are about to combust from the pressure, but he has to stay standing. The spectators are still in awe over the destruction and are starting to get curious about the victor and the challenger. They want to know what happened next. If their predictions were correct, they will find out soon. But first they need to survive the shockwaves from the explosion that just occurred. So they wait and watch carefully for any signs of life. The announcer continues narrating the battle.
Both the warriors are laying on the ground, with both bleeding all over.
But there's one who starts getting up slowly and slowly.
It is kosei, he almost gets on his knee but then falls to the ground. Then it is Antonio, who successfully gets up from the ground and gets declared as the winner.
Antonio has beaten kosei!
