Tokyo: Starting with the Gear-Conscious Male Gods!

Chapter 39 Yuta, you're amazing!

After the two of them were seated, the chubby boy finally relaxed and regained his previous arrogant demeanor.

"Knowing I'm one win away from a five-game winning streak, you deliberately gave it to me, huh? I have to say, while you Mingde students aren't great at games, you're pretty good people, always willing to help others."

"Since you're such a nice person, I'll go easy on you later and make sure you don't lose too badly to those two girls."

Yuta Shirakawa glanced at him disdainfully: "You?"

The chubby boy wanted to say something sarcastic again, but he backed down when he thought of the other person's fierce aura.

He mumbled something, but Yuta Shirakawa couldn't hear it and simply ignored it.

During the hero selection phase, the chubby guy was decisive and didn't choose the fan-wielding girl from the previous game, but instead directly chose Jackie Chan's sister—Little Girl.

Because of the farce that just happened, their arena attracted quite a few spectators.

Someone in the audience who was somewhat familiar with the chubby boy said, "This chubby boy is getting serious; he's even brought out the girls."

"Is he good with young girls?"

"Yes, I've seen him play against other players in other arcades before, using the girl. The other player was also a pro, but he still managed to defeat three of them with the girl."

"One against three? That's incredible?"

"Yes, it's a pity there's only one hero 1v1 in the qualifiers. I guess that student on the other side is in danger."

After seeing the girl the other party chose, Shirakawa Yuta did not choose a more targeted ranged attack character, but after thinking for a moment, he directly chose Mad Dog.

He wants to engage in close combat with his opponent, deal damage, and see who can react faster!

Only in this way can he finally vent his anger!

After seeing that he chose Mad Dog Bro, the chubby guy burst out laughing.

He hadn't expected his opponent to be so overconfident, daring to choose a close-combat style to fight him. He had already made up his mind to teach his opponent a lesson.

As both sides selected their heroes and entered the game loading screen, Masako Takahashi, who had already walked off the stage, shouted to Yuta Shirakawa:

"Yuta, come on!"

Yuta Shirakawa turned around, gave Masako Takahashi an "OK" sign, and then raised an eyebrow at Tsukizo Hoshino, the meaning of which was quite clear.

Aren't you going to give me a boost?

All he got in return was a glare from Hoshino Tsukizuru.

Yuta Shirakawa pursed his lips, not caring at all, since he hadn't really expected to get any encouragement anyway.

With a shout of "fight!", the game officially began!

Although the chubby boy was arrogant, he had learned from his previous experience fighting Masako Takahashi and dared not underestimate Yuta Shirakawa.

The chubby boy started with his usual ranged attacks, whittling down Shirakawa Yuta's health while waiting for him to make a mistake, before unleashing a combo to kill him.

Normally, Shirakawa Yuta might have played along with him for a while, but now he had no interest in that and just wanted to finish the fight quickly and vent his anger.

His fingers flew across the joystick and buttons, and Shirakawa Yuta didn't care if he lost some health; as long as he could close the attack distance, it was all worth it.

The chubby boy was startled by the opponent's reckless fighting style and instinctively wanted to retreat. However, after remembering that he was playing with a girl and was not afraid of getting close, a fierce glint flashed in his eyes.

He unleashed his internal energy with incredible speed, as if it were free. Since his opponent wanted to fight him, he would do as they wished. After all, he was still at full health, so what was he afraid of?

By the time the mad dog controlled by Shirakawa Yuta reached the girl, it only had two-thirds of its health left.

The little girl, however, was brimming with energy, and her energy bar was almost full.

Taking advantage of the moment the mad dog landed, the chubby boy suddenly unleashed the girl's ultimate move, "Spiral Whirlwind Kick." This was his most proficient killing move, capable of both offense and defense. He didn't believe that Shirakawa Yuta could dodge it at such close range.

A poster of the little girl appeared briefly on the screen, which was the sign of the big screen.

Masako Takahashi, sitting in the audience, clenched her fists and shouted nervously, "Yuta, watch out!"

Hoshino Tsukigen also frowned slightly, his eyes fixed on the screen.

But Yuta Shirakawa remained completely calm; the two additional responsive points on the game controller proved incredibly useful at that moment.

Just as the girl was in the moment of her ultimate move animation, Shirakawa Yuta's finger suddenly stopped, and the character he was controlling, Mad Dog, interrupted the ultimate move with a powerful punch at the last second.

The chubby boy's pupils constricted sharply, and he shouted incredulously, "What?!"

While shouting, he tried to control the character to retreat quickly, but Shirakawa Yuta was not going to give him another chance to escape.

He rushed forward and unleashed a series of crazy attacks, using light and heavy punches and kicks to keep the chubby boy from retaliating. After finally breaking free, he was immediately followed up and stuck to Shirakawa Yuta, who disregarded the loss of health.

Both of their health points dropped rapidly. Although Mad Dog has control attributes, he would have an advantage when the two fought in close combat.

But having just lost so much health, it quickly ran out.

The chubby boy, who had been somewhat desperate after his ultimate move was interrupted, saw hope again, as if the dawn of victory was just around the corner.

Masako Takahashi, sitting in the audience, squinted her eyes, barely daring to look, while even the usually aloof Tsukizuru Hoshino clenched his fists.

Only Yuta Shirakawa on stage remained calm and composed.

After successfully dodging yet another heavy blow from his opponent, Shirakawa Yuta suddenly uttered two words:

"We won."

"What?"

The chubby boy didn't hear what Shirakawa Yuta said, but the next second, he saw it!

Just as the girl froze in her dodge attempt, a poster of a mad dog suddenly appeared on the screen.

Then, the mad dog was instantly engulfed in flames, and his ultimate move "Mad Dog Attack" was activated. The dark purple flames, along with the fierce moves, pinned the girl to the ground and hit her repeatedly. This is Iori Yagami's signature move, with maximum damage, and it is also a nightmare for fragile characters like the girl.

"No!" the chubby boy cried out in alarm, frantically tapping the buttons with his fingertips, trying to make the girl break free of his control, but it was too late.

With each successful hit from Mad Dog's attack, the little girl's health bar dropped at a visible rate until the dark purple flames on Mad Dog's body lit up again. Then, Mad Dog suddenly raised his fists and slammed them into the little girl's body, completely reducing her health bar to zero.

The little girl fell to the ground and couldn't get up again, and the words "YOU WIN" appeared on the screen.

Seeing this, Masako Takahashi, who was in the audience, shouted excitedly, "Yay, Yuta, you're amazing!"

Hoshino Tsukigen nodded to Shirakawa Yuta as well.

Only the chubby boy remained rooted to the spot, muttering to himself, "How could this be? How could I lose..."

Yuta Shirakawa rolled his eyes and retorted angrily, "Because you're bad at the game and mean, of course you'll lose."

"you!"

The chubby boy stood up angrily and pointed at Shirakawa Yuta just like the others had pointed at him, as if he wanted to say something.

But after showing off his bulging biceps, Shirakawa Yuta swallowed his words and slunk away.
