" You say I'm too prideful and you're damn right I am. My strength is incomparable to yours. I'm from the greatest clan in the world. Why wouldn't I be cocky? That's what it means to be a Zenin. "
Naoya's body flickers reappearing behind Panda throwing a kick into his chubby side. Panda's tired body is pushed back by the kick as Naoya chases after him. Naoya throws a volley of kicks into the Panda's body sending his paws skidding across the cracked stone floor.
Panda watched Naoya leap into the air twirling. Panda's eyes could only track a small line before Naoya's heel slammed into Panda's jaw rocking his head back. Panda stumbles back before Naoya reaches out placing his palm on Panda's stomach. Panda's eyes widened until his body was engulfed in glass.
Naoya stopped using his cursed technique to conserve energy but Naoya thinks he no longer needs to conserve energy. Naoya slides his feet apart while throwing an overhand. The punch shatters the glass as Panda's body is launched back, rolling on the floor.
While rolling on the floor. Panda's hands slide across the floor before his fingers get caught in one of the cracks in the floor. Using all of his strength Panda violently yanks his arm up flinging a massive piece of floor. Naoya watches the chunk of stone approaching him before sliding under it.
While sliding under the piece of stone a sudden shadow is cast over Naoya's sliding body. Naoya looks up in the air and sees Panda falling out of the air. Naoya's face turned confused as he rolled out of the way of a powerful stomp. Naoya rolled to his feet with a concerned look on his face.
" A second wind?"
Naoya says as sweat rolls down his face. Naoya didn't think Panda would be able to surprise him in such a tired state. Panda grins at Naoya as he runs towards him spinning his leg around his body and throwing a kick. Naoya dashes back dodging the kick. Naoya tracks the missed kick with his eyes until suddenly a tail slaps him across his face, knocking his head back.
Naoya's eyes widen from the odd attack as he narrowly dodges a backward kick from Panda not facing him. Naoya reaches out and slides his hand across Panda's leg before turning him into glass. Naoya throws a quick kick into the glass shattering it, sending Panda sliding across the ground.
Naoya starts to lunge towards the sliding Panda until Panda rolls onto his feet grabbing onto two large pieces of rubble. Panda twists his body before he begins to chuck the pieces of rubble toward Naoya. Naoya avoids the rubble by dashing to the right. Panda begins to pick up more rubble. Panda's plan was a simple one. If Naoya was so much faster than him, he was just going to fend him off from a distance.
Panda begins to throw pieces of rubble towards Naoya as he avoids the rubble slowly lessening the distance between him and Panda. After fending off the volley of rubble for several minutes, Naoya finally sees an opening. Naoya ducks under a piece of rubble before springing forward and appearing in front of Panda in a split second.
Panda crosses his arms before a punch slips through his guard slamming into his jugular. Panda grunts in pain as his eyes start to water from being punched in the throat. Naoya begins to throw a barrage of attacks at Panda. Panda's eyes couldn't track Naoya's movements. He only felt sharp pain pulsating through his body.
Panda glances behind him before noticing that he is being pushed to the edge of the stage. Panda tries to dash to the left before Naoya slams an elbow into his chin making him stumble back getting closer to the edge. Panda gives up on trying to circle around Naoya knowing he can't get past Naoya's lightning-fast speed. Panda gets closer and closer to the edge. As his eyes scan the stage looking for an opportunity to change the tide of the battle, While looking at the floor a grin appears on his face as he thinks of a plan.
Panda is kicked in the stomach one last time until he is mere inches away from the stage's edge. Panda stares forward and watches as Naoya approaches him throwing a punch. A grin appears on Panda's face as he transforms into his gorilla form. Naoya's eyes widen from his transformation but he still throws the punch.
Panda lets the punch slam into his face. Before throwing a powerful punch. Naoya sidesteps the punch casually dodging the punch as it slams into the floor. With a grin on his face, Naoya boosts while loading back his right leg getting ready to throw a kick.
" Did you really think that slow punch could- "
Before Naoya could finish his sentence he felt the stage under his feet shift. He glances down before realizing the floor under him is being lifted into the air. His eyes widen as his body is flung up into the air. Naoya extends his arm to the right. Trying to grab onto Panda's body.
What launched Naoya wasn't the entire stage instead a small sliver of the stage that cracked away from the rest of the stage. The sliver of the stage was narrow looking like a seesaw. That is why Panda figured out a plan. Panda knew if he could get Naoya onto the sliver of the stage. And powerfully punch the stage. It would fling him off the stage like a seesaw. Panda thought of the plan after years of playing in parks.
But the plan would be futile as Naoya reaches out and grabs onto the fur on Panda's right shoulder. Naoya twirls his body around Panda before sitting on Panda's left shoulder. Panda glances up at Naoya in shock and sees a grin on his face.
Before Panda could move his body was engulfed in glass. Naoya hops off Panda's shoulder landing on the stage before spinning throwing a roundhouse kick directly into Panda's stomach. The glass violently shatters as Panda's body is launched off the stage crashing onto the ground outside the stage.
The crowd and announcer looked at Naoya in shock after the dramatic battle. The announcer coughed before yelling out.
" Naoya Zenin. The son of the head of the Zenin clan. Is the victor of this tournament! ...
