____Narration____
[The winner is the "Wild Tiger," Wakatsuki Takeshi!].
[Blast Core], a technique that consists of compressing every muscle in the body to its center, releasing them in the form of a punch with enough power to ignore the durability of a monster like Julius. While the technique carries devastating power, the pressure it causes on the right ankle prevents it from being used very often, making it an asset that should only be used at ideal times.
While most people couldn't even imagine how the technique worked, Yuji was able to understand it within seconds of seeing it in action. Seeing such power immediately interested him, but copying the technique was not as easy as its simple description made it sound.
Compressing the muscles was difficult, but compressing them all at one point? For normal people, this was impossible, and for Yuji, this was no different.
He had phenomenal muscle control, as his [Indestructible] was probably on par with Kanoh's, but that only made it easier to use [Blast Core] to a certain extent, after all, Yuji's muscles were far from matching Wakatsuki's.
[Blast Core] was not like [Advance], where he could use it with little pressure on his heart until his body adapted.
If he tried to adapt his body using a technique like this, most likely all his muscles would rupture, giving him a terribly painful death.
So even if he knew how to replicate the technique, using it was out of the question at the moment.
"That was a brutal struggle."
"It looked like two Kaijus colliding."
"Whole arena was shaking as they punched each other."
During the fight, the seats around Yuji filled up with the presence of a few fighters. Apparently, the fact that he and Hatsumi were commenting on the fight at certain points drew enough attention to make them approach, which left the young fighter surrounded by other fighters from the tournament.
He really didn't care about that, as long as Elena or Senju were sitting next to him, but the girls had decided to visit Mokichi in the infirmary, Karura and Kou accompanying them, along with Hiyama.
Seeing only muscular men around him only made him a little irritated.
"I hope Wakatsuki recovers, as his next opponent won't be easy, regardless of who wins the fourth match." Okubo commented, most of the fighters agreeing with his words.
"While Sekibayashi seems to be someone from the tank class, Muteba is from the assassin class part." He continued, but this time, most ignored him, after all, not everyone knew the gaming world like the MMA champion. "What do you think, Yuji? Which one would you say will win?"
This immediately caught the fighters' attention, since despite commenting a few times on what was happening in Wakatsuki and Julius' fight, Yuji kept silent most of the time. Of course, it wasn't because he wanted to ignore them, but during the fight between the two monsters, he kept his full attention on the fight in order to get something more than the [Blast Core].
Yuji scratched his chin as he heard the question.
He knew little of Sekibayashi, since he was not a wrestling fan, but he knew the man was strong, and had an ability to sustain a tremendous amount of damage, though he was nothing comparable to Julius. As for Muteba, he knew enough of the mercenary to know that he could reach the finals if he tried hard enough. But a mercenary was not someone who would put himself in so much danger just for a service, so should he take serious damage, Yuji could see him giving up.
But could Sekibayashi lead him to that? Yuji believed not, since unlike Wakatsuki with [Blast Core], the Wrestler had no technique capable of causing that much damage.
"Sekibayashi seems to be strong, but he doesn't have as many techniques as Muteba. I don't see how he can defeat him. In the end, the one who has the most ways to win is the one with the advantage."
The fighters agreed, although some of them did not like the idea of seeing Sekibayashi losing.
"Yes, you are right, but Sekibayashi has fought several fights against martial artists, so he still has a chance." Kaneda commented, Yuji just shaking his head at his words.
Ingenuity. Muteba was not like martial artists, in fact, he should not even be considered one. He was a mercenary, who aimed to complete his service to the best of his ability. Killing a big guy like Sekibayashi would definitely not be a problem for someone of his level.
When Yuji was in Africa, Muteba was hired to hunt him down, since he was not a very pleasant visitor to the country, after all, he would not submit to the country's militia just because he was a foreigner. Besides, it was not his fault that they had not left him alone.
In his stay in the country, he avoided the mercenary as much as possible, since at the time he was sure that he could not beat him in a direct confrontation. Fortunately, he left the country before the two could meet.
Perhaps this was the only service the mercenary was unable to complete in his entire career. Fortunately, no one in the country knew who Yuji really was, making it impossible for Muteba to identify him...
At least he hoped so, since he would not want to face a mercenary angry at having his career tarnished.
When the two fighters had their introductions, Yuji was quick to use [Observe] on both of them.

Both were fairly evenly matched, but there was a huge difference in the intelligence of the two. Yuji was definitely betting on Muteba in this match.
Turning his attention to Sekibayashi, who was wearing strange makeup, he couldn't help but wonder about the reason behind it.
'A fighter summoned from hell by Sekibayashi? That's... Strange.'
