The next match of the tournament is about to begin, it will be a match between the two giants.
Santiago Vs Krishna!
Two of the most anticipated players was chosen to fight each other by the judges, the monks
The crowd starts going crazy over the match, as everyone knows who these two players are. Both of them are the students of the round table lords. Santiago is a well know student of marduk, the right hand man of god of destruction Azazel himself. On the other hand, Krishna is the student of Hanuman, the right hand man of god of strength diabolos.
“Finally, I have always wanted to destroy this piece of s**t. He stopped me before, beside he seems to be In a good position with Antonio now. As far as I can tell, Krishna is as strong as Antonio. So if I beat him, then that will prove that I am stronger than Antonio as well. I don't care about getting more points, I will come out as victorious no matter what." Santiago tells himself, while standing with few others who works for marduk.
One of marduks lead man (A+ rank) slaps Santiago on the head for saying such a thing.
“If you do what you just said right now, then I will make sure to punish you myself. Do newbies have such a stupid mentality, maybe master marduk has went way too soft with you. In our times, we would have gotten serious punishment for saying such a thing." The high ranked man tells Santiago aggressively.
“But but, isn't winning everything?" Santiago softly replies, after getting scared by his superior.
“No, what do you think we are? Some low life thugs? You are a student of master marduk, a highly respected eternal throughout the world. You have to stop acting like a thug. Your first priority should be winning the competition, not winning this round match. Even if you lose, you might get more points. So put out your best shot in this match, because this one is even more important than the semi finale. It is a lot harder to pass this round than the semi finale. I can't believe the newer students like this, no wonder why our reputation has been going down ever since the beginning of 19th century. I should have come back to this job a long time ago, wish I wasn't busy with the cold wars situation." The senior tells Santiago.
“My apologise sir, please don't complain about me to master marduk." Santiago requests the senior softly.
On the other side, Krishna was mentally preparing himself to face Santiago. One of his senior who participated in the same tournament two decades ago comes to his aid and starts exciting him.
“That is the student of marduk, the one our master does not like that much. It will be very embarrassing if you lose, so I don't care if you get less point than him. Just make sure to beat the s**t out of him, like I did to his other student during my time. Hehe, you are very strong. You can do better than me, so have faith in yourself." The senior suggests Krishna about the fight.
“Come on, I am here to take the trophy. I don't care about beating him, I am not like you. You were special brother, that's why you won both the match and the got more points back then. Yes, I watched that tournament in DVDs. Not saying I can't, because I will try my best to win both the match and get more points, I know I can do that. I have full faith in myself. Santiago is no joke, I saw what he did with that opponent called hulk Hogan. I will have to give my best to take him out, or else I will lose both the battle and the points." Krishna replies with a smile.
Both the players walk inside the arena, the other players have focused their eyes on the match closely. Kosei hayashi and others are also watching the match, as it is one of the biggest match ever.
The two fighters doesn't waste any time talking and goes right at it.
Krishna launches a devastating low kick to Santiago, who is not as good as Krishna in terms of hand to hand combat.
Krishna holds the both hands of Santiago and throws him far. Before Santiago could get up and do something, Krishna jumps at him with super speed and punches him to the face. One after another, Krishna starts punching Santiago to the face. With a very low physical power and speed compared to Krishna, Santiago stands no chance against Krishna in hand to hand combat.
“What's wrong? You don't seem to talk or do something, what happened to your pride? you want me to continue beating the s**t out of you?" Krishna mocks Santiago, who is laying on the ground.
“Nah, hehehehe. I am just checking how powerful you are in terms of physical strength. Guess what? I am not impressed." Santiago replies, while dropping a few drops of blood from his mouth to the ground.
Krishna tries punching him again, but this time Santiago stops the punch with one of his hands. Santiago gives a headbutt to Krishna and then kicks him to the belly to create a distance between the two.
Santiago goes straight at Krishna with a punch, but Krishna easily dodges it by going in his knee and then kicks the right leg of Santiago. It almost makes Santiago fall on the ground but he punches the ground with one of his other hand and gets up before he could even fall.
Santiago tries punching him again, and then tried kicking him. None of it works, Krishna is easily dodging them and countering them with his own punched and kicks. As Santiago starts getting hit more and more, he start bleeding from his mouth all over the ground.
The senior of Santiago starts shouting at him, by saying him to use his full power.
Santiago manages to kick Krishna away from him and creates a distance between them.
“Hahahaha, I really don't stand a chance against you. Alright, I won't go easy on you anymore. You really thought you won? Think again, because you are about to witness the pure destructive power. The power which destroys everything in the universe, the power which originates from the god of destruction himself. This is the pure destructive power, the one only the students of master marduk has access to. You should feel proud that you will be able to fight against it." Santiago starts laughing, as he starts getting surrounded by a very dark aura. A dark aura which is leaking a very powerful feeling to everyone in the stadium, not that it is the first time he is using the technique. Santiago has used this power against his previous opponent Hogan too, but it was a very little amount. This time however, Santiago is using every bits of his true potential.
On the other hand, Krishna is not surprised at all. He knew what kind of power this is, as he is very good at studies.
Krishna puts on a smile and bursts his heart with his own power.
What is his power? What is he planning to do?
Krishna starts glowing red, his entire body starts covering with a strange flame. The flame is red, but looks very different to other flames of the world. The aura of the two starts affecting the entire stadium, black and red. With Krishna's flame heat reaching every single spectators.
The administrator feels a danger to the spectators, as shockwaves from the battle could reach them any time soon. So he creates a huge barrier around the battle arena to stop any shockwaves or affects from reaching the outside.
“Hehehe, you bastard really did have something up your sleeve. Now it makes me even more hyped, our battle will be legendary." Santiago tells Krishna out loud.
“This is the divine flaming god technique, which my master Hanuman taught me. This technique was created by master a few centuries ago, to counter the pure destructive power of master marduk. Sure it isn't that impressive compared to the power you are using, but it depends on who is using it. As far yes you should know, I can kick your stupid ass with this form." Krishna laughs and mocks Santiago, who bursts in rage upon hearing it.
Santiago sends an enormous black energy blast at Krishna, who counters it with his own enormous fire blast. The two attack hits one another and creates shockwaves, which starts hitting the barrier created by the tournament administrator.
“Holy s**t, in what way are they considered to be B rank? Look at those attacks, none of used them before. They can literally kill me in one shot, aregghhh. How am I supposed to to win the tournament when there is opponents like that? Those two are even scarier than the monster hum baba and hambuba." Another participant called sunny tells his superior.
Another participant hears her saying this and approaches her.
“Hey hey, if it Isn't sunny leon. Look at your ugly self, so scared of facing your opponents? How about if you get to fight me, i let you win. Only in one condition, you will have to kiss my feet." The participant named onion tells sunny, to mock him. Onion has faced sunny in the very first round of the tournament, she helds a huge grudge against her.
Sunny fully ignores what onion says and continues to focus on the battle.
“Hey you b***h, i am talking with you. How dare you ignore me like that? " Onion gets angry over sunny ignoring her.
“Why are you shouting so much? Who the f**k are you?" Sunny aggressively replies onion.
“Haaaaaaaa? How could you forget about me? I am onion, I make bad boys cry. That's why I am called onion, I best your ass in the very first round of the tournament. How could you forget your embarrassing battle?" Onion gets surprised and mocks sunny.
“Oh, if it isn't that shitty ugly girl I faced. What's up? Still trying to find a boyfriend? Because only ugly virgin males would sent you a love letter. Sorry girl, I am not interested in talking with you. Look at that guard, he is so old and weak. Perfect match for someone like you. Why don't you try hitting on him instead? Oh you can't, because you in your heart knows that even that guard would reject you. Go away sweety, I have better things to worry about."
Sunny brutally destroys onion with words, who gets so embarrassed that she runs away from the place and goes to see his S-rank master and hugs him.
In the battleground however, one of the biggest battles in tournament history is taking place. With Santiago and Krishna.
“When those flames of your burns out, you will be six feet under the ground. You should forfeit before that happens." Santiago warns Krishna.
“For someone who is bleeding all over his face, you shouldn't say such a thing. It will be more embarrassing if you lose now. My flames will not burn out, until I finish my enemy. Unfortunately for you, you are my enemy now." Krishna replies with pride.
