Before noon, after Horikita Suzune, Karuizawa Megumi, Kushida Kikyo, Matsushita Chiaki, Yukinoshita Haruno and others also arrived, including Sakura Airi, who was thought to arrive in two days. It seemed that since their families either lived in Tokyo or near Tokyo, they would first take the subway to the station, and then take Chiaki Matsushita's family's car directly to the company. Only Ichinose Hoba came late. She didn't arrive at the company until late afternoon, and she was dragging a bunch of bags in her hands. "Hello~ Everyone is here. Sorry, sorry, I haven't been home for a long time. My mom was on vacation yesterday and today, and my sister was also on spring break at home, so I got here a little late. Did I miss anything?" "No, no, we haven't officially opened for business yet. I just came here to get familiar with the place these two days." When Wu Yi replied, he was sitting on the sofa in the hall, happily rubbing the controller in front of the TV. He bought himself a PS5 while shopping in the mall yesterday, and also bought a few new games that have been released in the past two years and have received good reviews. While he was rubbing the handle, Karuizawa Megumi and Kushida Kikyo sat next to him on both sides, one on each side, like guardians. They don't play games and don't have much interest in electronic games, but they won't miss a good opportunity to stick together like this. Of course, the one who won the most was a white-haired loli. She sat directly on Wu Yi's legs, which could be said to be her exclusive seat on the throne. With superb operation, he easily killed the boss at the end of the level, who was only left with blood, with two cuts. Wu Yi pressed the pause button and stuffed the controller on the sofa behind him, then stood up holding Sakayanagi Arisu.
However, he did not hold her in his arms all the time. He just picked her up and then put her down on the ground to stand. If he had held her in his arms like a child all the time, it would have been too damaging to the chairman's dignity. But you can't be like some 500-year-old vampire loli. By the time Wu Yi arrived next to Ichinose, she had already moved all the bags she brought with her onto an office desk, opened the knot on the opening, and was taking the things out one by one. Wu Yi curiously picked up one of the plastic boxes with a half-transparent lid, took a look at it, and read the name on it softly. “Sardine sushi?” "Yeah, actually these were given to me by my mother. She told me to bring them here and share them with my colleagues. This is what she said..." Ichinose Hoba scratched her face and smiled awkwardly. Of course, she couldn't tell her mother that she came here to meet her boyfriend and a large group of future "sisters". Her mother would definitely be so angry that she would fall ill. Or maybe not? In short, she simply said that she was hired to work in a new company opened by the Sakayanagi Group after graduation because she performed well in school. I wasn't lying, I just expressed it in a slightly different way. After all, Ichinose's performance in school is quite good, and this is indeed a new company opened by the Sakayanagi Group, and it is even a joint company with the Yukinoshita Group, so there is nothing wrong with it. "Is there anything in there that needs to be put in the refrigerator?" Arisu Sakayanagi also came over at this time. "Probably not. If I have to talk about it, it's probably just this sardine sushi." Ichinose took out all the things, glanced around, and shook his head. "If that's the case, let's leave it alone for now." At this time, Yukinoshita Haruno also walked over and said this, and at the same time she looked at Sakayanagi Arisu. "It's almost time, it's time to set off." "That's right, the car should be here soon." Turning his head to look out the window at the gradually darkening sky, Sakayanagi Arisu smiled slightly.
Ichinose, who had just arrived at the station less than a minute ago, was immediately filled with questions when he heard this. "Departure? Eh? Wait where are we going?" "Don't worry, it's not far, just around here... Of course, it may not be that close." While Wu Yi explained vaguely, he cast a questioning look at Sakayanagi Arisu. "But is it really necessary for so many people to go together? It should be enough for me to go alone. Anyway, the challenge fee has been paid, and I just need to go there to pick up something." The white-haired loli smiled and shook her head. "It's okay, let's go together, it won't delay anything." …… The perspective changes, as the fiery red sunset sinks into the horizon, in a dark corner somewhere in Tokyo. It was an underground construction site that was still under construction. It seemed that they were going to build a reservoir or something. A huge passage under the ground that was big enough to be used as a bunker had been dug, and things like cement barrels and putty knives were piled on both sides of the road. However, since it was already night, all the workers who worked here during the day had gone home, and instead another group of people gathered here. Of course, they are not here to help the workers catch up with the progress. But it’s to... hold an underground boxing match! At the intersection of three branches in the huge and hollow underground passage, a circular arena had been set up on the ground, with four lamps shining high-intensity light from the four corners towards the middle. The man who looked like a referee on the stage was waiting quietly with a microphone in his hand, while next to him a man wearing a karate uniform and a ponytail, like a martial artist in a dojo, was warming up. "Hey~ Yokota, I heard that your opponent today is a kid from a newly established company. Is that okay?" Someone in the audience reached out to the edge of the ring and laughed loudly at the karate master on the stage. But he was soon slapped on the shoulder by someone next to him. "What nonsense are you talking about? There will be no problem. You said yourself that you are a kid who just founded a new company. I guess you are probably the kind of guy who just graduated from school and came out to start a business because his family has some money and some connections. Yokota can beat ten opponents of this level with one hand!" "That's true. Anyway, I'm going all in on Yokota to win tonight." "What a coincidence, me too." "Hahaha!" "Hey Hey!" Conversations like these were going on one after another in the audience, but the karate master on the stage, who was called Yokota, never even glanced at them from beginning to end. He just kept warming up by himself, like a master who was as unmovable as a mountain. At the same time, in an empty passage not far from the ring, which was only illuminated by a dim safety light, Wu Yi looked at the karate master on the stage from afar and curled his lips in surprise. "No way, this is the kind of person... Tsk, are these the people that Kengankai is considering for membership?" "I can feel that he is very strong." Ibuki Mio, who was standing by, didn't detect the disdain in his tone and spoke with certainty.
Arisu Sakayanagi glanced at the two people who were chatting across servers and shook his head slightly. "Although both the fighters and referees are registered members of the Kengan Association, this is not an official competition organized by the Kengan Association. Perhaps it would be more appropriate to describe it as a private gambling game?" "Oh, I think I understand..." Wu Yi suddenly realized. To put it bluntly, this is a challenge that involves betting on Kengan membership. It is equivalent to saying that the other party is a Kengan member, and he puts his Kengan membership at stake. Others can invest 100 million to challenge him, and if they win, they can take away his Kengan membership. Although this operation seems extremely ridiculous to quite a few Kengan members, there are also quite a few people who actually do this. After all, only a small number of Kengankai companies can really make a fortune, and most are just like ordinary companies, making money when their fortune is good and losing money when their fortune is bad. And the most important point is that these people are often just shy of the passing line for Kengan membership. To put it simply, anyone who can beat him is already a member of Kengan and doesn't bother to fight him. As for those who fight him, they are basically those who cannot beat him. What kind of Xiaojie behavior is this? Unfortunately, this little money-making trick only lasts until today. "I think they have opened a betting market, and the odds sound pretty good. You might consider giving it a try~" As Wu Yi spoke, he took out the sunglasses that he had repaired with glue and put them on, then waved his hand and slowly walked towards the stage in front. "Well, I'll be back soon." Volume 520: Chapter : One Punch Ends the Game "Come on, come on, make way, don't block the road~" Without any hesitation or stage fright, Wu Yi strode towards the stage, pushed aside the crowd along the way, and then jumped lightly onto the stage. The whole process was smooth and flowing without any delay, as if it had been done thousands of times before. At this moment, both the audience and the martial artists on the stage noticed this young man who openly walked onto the stage. Even the referee holding the microphone was slightly stunned, but then he immediately reacted and adjusted his glasses which had slipped down slightly due to the damp and stuffy underground. "Well, you are today's challenger, the exclusive fighter of Wuyi Business, right?" "Yes, that's me, so can we start?" Wu Yi shrugged to indicate that he was right, and urged at the same time. "Uh, wait a minute..." The referee paused for a moment and turned his head to look at the other side of the stands. He was a middle-aged man in a suit standing beside the ring with a smile on his face. When he saw the referee looking at him, he nodded slightly in understanding and turned to the karate master on the stage. "Yokota, that brat should be dealt with immediately."
"Yes!" The karate master responded calmly. Everything was going smoothly here, but at the same time, some unpleasant noises were heard from a little further away below the ring. "Wait, the referee just said it was Wu Yi Shangshi? It sounds a bit like a person's name, and if I remember correctly, this name seems to belong to the Wu family..." Before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by his companion next to him. "You are crazy. Can you think about what level of competition this is? Who would invite the Wu family to participate in a competition of this level? Are you crazy? I think it's just a simple case of having the same name and surname." "It seems so, haha..." The opinions in the audience were almost one-sided, and so were the odds on the bets. Very good, this nest is perfect. Wu Yi raised his eyebrows in satisfaction, and looked across the crowd towards the distance below the ring. Sakayanagi Arisu made an OK gesture to him. Meaning - the bets are already placed. At the same time, the referee on the ring was ready to announce the start of the match. The referee blew the whistle, and the sharp whistle immediately attracted the attention of the entire audience. Then he opened his mouth, took a deep breath, and raised his right arm high. The next second, a loud voice echoed throughout the underground passage. "Then, in the next match, the fighting master of our karate gym, Masayoshi Yokota, the exclusive fighter of Niumin Catering Service, will defend against the attack of the exclusive fighter of Wuyi Trading Company!" "The game starts now!!!" As the referee announced the start of the match, Masayasu Yokota suddenly exerted force and tensed his muscles. However, just as he leaned forward slightly and was ready to strike, a fist as big as a sandbag was already on his cheek, so fast that it seemed like teleportation. This was by no means a gentle greeting, but an over-the-shoulder punch with fatal power. boom! In an instant, a terrifying sound like an explosion swept across the ring and spread in all directions. The dust raised from the construction site even made the spectators closest to the ring subconsciously raise their arms to cover their faces. When the dust cleared and everyone opened their eyes again, they were shocked to find that the person lying on the ring was none other than Masayoshi Yokota, who most people had thought was very good-looking. At this moment, the fighting champion of my karate gym was lying on the ground like a dead dog, losing consciousness. He was caught off guard by the frontal punch and his cheek was completely sunken, and his mouth was tilted to the side. I don’t know how many teeth were broken. Wu Yi, who was standing in front of the karate master who was unable to move, was grinning and flexing his wrists, muttering something. "Ah~ I haven't fought in a boxing match for a long time. I forgot that I shouldn't hit ordinary people too hard. Tsk tsk tsk. But then again, I didn't seem to use too much strength just now. Or have I become stronger in the past three years? Forget it, forget it. I don't want to think about it anymore..." While muttering something that others could not hear, Wu Yi jumped down from the ring as lightly as when he came. He didn't even bother to say hello to the referee. He staggered away among the crowd of spectators who automatically moved to the sides. He only threw one punch and ended the fight instantly.
It's just... quite boring. Returning to the girls, Wu Yi saw that Sakayanagi Arisu had a wooden plaque with the Chinese character "拳" (fist) engraved on it in his hand. It was about the size of a palm and shaped like a shogi piece. "Got it! Kengan membership." The silver-haired girl raised the wooden sign in her hand. "Oh~ So this is what it looks like?" Wu Yiye was a little curious. Although he had participated in many Kengan competitions of varying sizes before, this was the first time he had seen a physical Kengan membership with his own eyes. To be honest, if you just look at the appearance, you can't see anything special about this thing. Even the workmanship is not very fine. At best, it can only be said to be a qualified mass-produced product.
