here , it's an indoor gym . its early morning so there is nobody who is training but the smell of sweat is lingering in the air . in the middle a modern boxing ring stands . it looks brand new as every part is shining and nobody can tell from a distance that this ring is standing here for 9 years now . a young man is standing near the entrance door and is admiring the scenery inside . he is wearing a black tracksuit and sweat drops can be seen clearly on his face . this man is our mc yamamoto Ken who has arrived in the ito boxing gym after completing his roadwork for morning .
a short man appears after the door of chief's room open . he looks like he is above 50 years old but has a fit body . he is wearing white shirt and brown pants and looks like a normal salaryman . this man is the sole manager of ito boxing gym and his name is bonda genji.
he is the responsible for arranging sparring partners , gym's finance , organising official matches etc , pretty much everything aside the job coach does . he is a very cheerful man but is very strict when it comes to money matters . all in all he is an indispensable person who cannot be replaced in the ito boxing gym .
" bonda san , good morning " ken greets the man with a smile and respect .
" if it isn't Ken chan . how are the results of your body check up at the hospital? " bonda asks Ken with a little worry that he cannot hide on his face ..
" dont worry bonda San, I'm totally fine . look , I even completed my roadwork routine before coming here " ken replies with a smile on his face ..
" I'm glad that there is no problem . I was really worried because you took way more damage in your last match than previous ones . " bonda sighs and continues " so did you come to meet chief ito ? he isn't here yet ."
" not really , I just couldn't stay still at home " ken replies honestly as he is too excited to his powers of THE EYE OF TRUTH while having a spar with somebody . ken continues " ne bonda San, I'm thinking about my future matches . "
" oh ? looks like your confidence is back . whatever the reason , it's good as your next opponent is already decided . its japan featherweight ranking 9th , senda toru. " bonda says with a smile as he is happy that Ken has regained his confidence ..
" oh ? that veteran huh . if I remember correctly , then he is 29 years old already . " ken says with respect and continues " I know that I'm just a cannon fodder to them but I will show everybody that I'm a boxer who can win when I win the match " ken says with great confidence as he is sure of his victory .

ken believes that all pro boxers train hard to fight in their best condition during matches . but it's the cruel truth that only a handful of them can taste glory in their short career as pro boxers . the ones who are popular just like the ranking holders , all of them possess a talent in something that makes them stand out . it can be their puch power , technique , speed etc .
just like they possess superior talent , ken also possesses his own talent now that is his own power THE EYE OF TRUTH . if ken possessing this unique power is a cheat then all those talented boxers that taste glory also possess their own cheats . so Ken plans to use this greatest cheat and become the world champion . he wants to wear that belt and show the world that he is here . just like the WBA featherweight current world champion ROCKY SMITH is his goal , he also wants to be the final goal of many boxers and bathe in the glory of a champion that the world recognizes .
