At the sa ti, Goto Ryuji was doing his very best to stifle a yawn.
'This is supposed to be the abilities of Korea's best?'
How laughable.
No, they were pitiful.
The assessnt of 'laughable' was made from an objective point of view, while the 'pitiful' bit ca from him adding a bit of sympathy to that initial assessnt.
'Rather than leaving the safety of the country to these people's hands, wouldn't it be far better to be under the protection of us, the Japanese, instead?'
Goto Ryuji ford a leery smile and surveyed the Korean rank S Hunters. Out of all the rank S Hunters, he t in Korea so far, only two seed to be sowhat powerful to his eyes.
'Her na's is Cha Hae-in, right? And him.'
He thought as looked behind at the man standing next to Go Gun-Hee.
'His na is Sung Jin-woo. There isn't much information about him. And two S- ranks are missing.'
He then focused back on Cha hae-in.
Her powers are special. She should be just a cut below his best hunters.
'But, there's no helping it, is there?'
South Korea was a small nation, and its population wasn't that vast, either. Also, the person who had Awakened the greatest ability within the populace just so happened to be an old man who didn't have that many days to live and couldn't even fight properly.
'If it's Go Gun-Hee, then he might be able to contend with so of our best on a similar level, but..... now there is another two.'
In any case, he was done with assessing the capabilities of the Korean Hunters. He had completed the real reason for his extended stay in Korea.
'They wouldn't even survive for five minutes if we withdraw during the subjugation. Maybe she can'
Thinking that there was no more reason to stick around, Goto Ryuji turned around to leave, but then, he spotted soone unfamiliar walking closer from the entrance of the gymnasium.
'Mm....?'
Goto Ryuji's brows quivered greatly.
He hadn't realized the approach of this unknown man even though they were nearby already. He was looking at the man with his own eyes, yet he still couldn't sense the other person's presence at all. He knew who this person was, one of the 2 S-Ranks that were missing before. The 10th S-rank of Korea Tsugukuni Haru his abilities are also unknown. He also caused quite a ruckus in japan.
I was looking at him with annoyance as he was also a complete mystery and he going to get in the way of my plan.
'I can't assess his powers. Even his presence is hard to find.'
He noticed my gaze and looked at for a second and then looked away his eyes practically saying 'weak'. I haven't felt this angry in my life but I can't show it on my face.
I put my thoughts back on the match in front of .
........... The Pov's might change in between so keep it in mind and there will be thoughts of people present as well.......
"The one with dobok is Ma Dong-Wook the guilder master of the Fa guild." Choi jong-in said as I nodded.
"Then those towards the entrance are Izawa Ippei, Ishida Mari, Tanaka Kenzo, Hoshino Minoru, Kumamoto Atsushi, Tawata Kanae, Fujishima Tatsumi, Kei, Shimizu Akari, and Ryuji Goto the Japanese hunters." When Jong-in finished speaking Go Gun-hee, Jin-woo and Jong-in looked at while I was looking towards the Japanese Hunters. No i was looking at Tawata Kanae. And she noticed my gaze and looked towards and she was stunned when she saw .
'When did he arrive? I didn't feel him arriving.' But then she looked at him carefully and looked away again because she has seen his photo on the internet but he was more handso now that she saw him face-face. The discussions about were going on between S-ranks from both the Japanese and Korean sides. They all looked at him and talked among themselves.
Then the match between Yoon-ho and Dong-Wook was going on.
The translater from the Japanese hunters association said.
"This is Korea's top. There is no need to see it anymore."
"You sure," Goto said as he looked at haru again.
When they were talking about their views about this they heard a voice.
"Sir translator, what did you just say? Korean hunters aren't good. Did you think we didn't know Japanese it was my second language in high school." And the argunt developed into a match between them. So 2 A-Ranks are going to have a match.
"This is going to be interesting," Jong-in said as Jin-woo was also interested in this fight.
"The rules are simple." (You laugh you lose.)
"The person that gets their wrists grabbed loses." Then the match began and the Japanese translator lost.
The Goto proposed a match between S-Ranks with the sa rules as the last match.
Back to m.c
We have already made our way down next to them. And so new rules were added such as touching the opponents back or knocking them over is also a win and the match will be a group match rather than a one on one.
And goto accepted it.
'He just wants to assess the abilities that's it. so it doesn't matter to him how it is done.' I thought as I can still feel him looking at .
From the Korean side the participants were Baek Yoon-ho, Ma Dong-Wook, Cha hae-in, and Im Tae-Gyu, and from the Japanese side were Tanaka Kenzo, Hoshino Minoru, Kumamoto Atsushi, and Tawata Kanae.
She took a glance at then went towards the ring.
Then the fight started with hae-in defeating Kanae with her speed. Kanae wasn't even able to react.
'She has gotten faster.' And Kenzo defeated Dong-Wook after so ti. After that Im Tae-Gyu lost to Minoru.
Then Kenzo and Hoshino tead up against Yoon-ho as Hae-in was about to help him Atsushi appeared behind her.
She was surprised and punched him in the face 20 tis in less than a second.
Everyone was surprised because of her speed and how fast her punches were.
"Kumamoto is angry now, when that bastard gets angry his personality changes," The hunter nad Tatsumi said.
"It's not his personality he just losses all reason. He isn't ant for fighting in competitions. But he can clear B-Rank gates alone." The hunter nad Kei said.
"And he doesn't rember anything after the fight," Akari said.
"I'm only trying to test them if it gets serious, we need to step in," Goto said.
"If we have to stop it is better to do it now. I don't think we can pay for the damages he is about to cause."The translator said
Then Atsushi appeared in front of hae-in and tried to kick her in the face. And the kick landed at least that is what it looked like.
'She has developed so of her forms already.'
'Breath of light, Flicker.' It creates an afterimage to confuse the opponent as the real target disappears. it might look simple but it can even trick Kenbunshoku Haki. Hae-in appeared behind Atsushi and Touched his back.
Then she was about to go to help Yoon-ho but suddenly Atsushi attacked her she wasn't able to move just when the attack was about to land. The air changed and everyone stopped and looked at the .
If they didn't hold themselves they would've already fallen to the ground so of them did. Among the 19 S-ranks only 10 were able to stand and even they felt how hard it was to remain standing. Then they saw Atsushi has stopped he has fallen on the ground while he was sweating so much that it ford a small puddle below him.
"It's just a competition no need to go that far. and There won't be a next ti for this." I said as I walked in front of Atsushi who was in his berserk state. He was looking at with wide-open eyes with terror clear in them.
"Tch, Nod if you understand," I said as my mood was really bad at the mont I have read the novel and there wasn't any event in it like this maybe it was a manhwa only thing. the manhwa didn't reach till this arc.
To send soone who can't even control himself. I saw him nod his head over and over. Then I stopped Realesing Haoshoku Haki.
When I turned around he suddenly attacked .
"Shinra Tensei," I said in a low voice as a purple ring-like pattern appeared in my eyes and vanished quickly
BANG*
Atsushi who was about to attack was stuck In the wall on the other side of the gymnasium forming a crater around him. He has passed out and is bleeding all over.
"YOUUUU-" Goto was about to shout but.
"I said there won't be a next ti." I cut him off as I turned towards Hae-in and gave her a hand.
She looked at while blushing and took my hand as she stood up I asked.
"Are you alright?"
She nodded shyly. When I turned around I can see Chairman Go Jong-in, Yoon-ho, and Jin-woo looking at with a wry smile.
I was about to go, but….
"Hunter Tsugikuni can you wait Goto-san has sothing to say?"
Why should I wait for you? I thought but I still stopped as we have to 'cooperate' for this raid.
"Sore hanan desuka(What is it?)" I said while looking at Goto in Japanese which shocked most of the people here as they didn't know I can speak fluent Japanese.
"I want to have a spar with you, but I want you to use your full power." He said while realising his aura. I folded my hands on my chest and looked at him.
"Don't make laugh. With your strength you want to go all out." I said to him while standing so distance away from and all the other S-ranks stood at the end of the gymnasium as they looked at the confrontation in front of them. They were stunned when they heard my words as it was too unbelievable he just said to the No.2 hunter in Asia that his strength is nothing. The Japanese hunter's jaw nearly touched the ground
How much confidence do you need to say that to a man who was practically one step away from becoming a national-level hunter? This is what everyone is thinking. Jin-woo was just smirking while looking at this as this is the first ti he has seen Haru show his strength and he was excited while looking forward to their clash.
"My, My how interesting," Jong-in said while looking at them. And then he looked at Hae-in.
'He won't do this if it was soone else. It ans that she…'
But a roar brought him out of his thoughts
"You are too arrogant" Goto shouted while releasing more of his aura.
"So are you going to start or not." I still had my hands crossed in front of my chest.
When Goto heard this he appeared in front of instantly.
"Slow," I said as I released my Haoshoku Haki while lifting my index finger with my arms crossed and he froze in front of as cracks started to spread all over the floor and the whole Gymnasium started to shake from the pressure. Everyone present expect Go Gun-Hee, Jin-woo, Hae-in, and To my expectation, Tawata Kanae was standing rest were all fallen. I looked at goto in front of .
He wasn't even able to move while looking at in horror.
"What was that all? And you were so confident just now right. See there your subordinate is stronger than you." I said as I pointed at Kanae and continued.
"Your nothing more than a paper tiger."
And I turned around towards the chairman and said
"Chairman Go has the plan for this raid completed."
He nodded and said.
"Goto-nim brought the plan with him."
"We will be changing the plan how does tomorrow sound to all of you," I said as I looked at the rest of the guild masters. They nodded and I turned went towards the exit.
"Then I'll see you tomorrow."
"Okay, I'll take my leave as well." I heard jin-woo say as he followed out.
