A FEW WEEKS AGO
IN THE KINGDOM OF THAILAND
WAT PHRA KAEW
Nice to see you again.
It looks like your business is going well.
RAMA XIII
RULER OF THE KINGDOM OF THAILAND
Thank you, Your Royal Highness.
Our success in the Kingdom of Thailand
TADASHI IIDA,
PRESIDENT OF YAZU TRADING
was made possible
thanks to your patronage, sir.
-We will never forget--
-Get straight to the point.
You wouldn't ask for an audience with me
without an ulterior motive.
Just tell me what you want.
I appreciate your openness, sir.
I would like to inform you
that we, Yazu Trading, will join
the Kengan Life-or-Death Tournament
to be held in two months.
We would be honored
if you could grace us with your support.
Meaning
Would you kindly permit us
to get the man standing next to you,
the Thai God of War,
as our company's affiliated fighter?
You want me to give you my trusty sword?
GAOLAN WONGSAWA
A.K.A. "THE THAI GOD OF WAR"
For what in return?
Yazu Trading will grow bigger if I become
the chairman of the Kengan Association,
which will enable me to promise
more benefits to you, sir.
You mean I will gain nothing in return
if you fail to win, right?
You're as wily as usual.
Did you hear that, Gaolan?
I like ambitious men like him.
Can you provide help to this man?
If it is your order,
I am pleased to fight.
For you, sir, and for the honor
of the Kingdom of Thailand,
I swear to defeat my opponents.
SAYAKA KATAHARA
Let's welcome the fighters!
GAME 15
This man is finally appearing
on the fight stage.
He is probably the top of the big names
in this tournament!
A revolutionary in the boxing field,
he is the strongest boxer in history,
having won all four major championships.
Standing at 187 cm and weighing 91 kg,
he makes his kengan match debut today.
Representing Yazu Trading,
also known as the Thai God of War,
Gaolan Wongsawat!
GAOLAN WONGSAWA
REP. FIGHTER YAZU TRADING
Hey, what's she saying?
I'm a big name, too!
NAOYA OHKUBO
It's no fun having no one
listen to me complaining.
Lihito's gone somewhere
and Kaneda's having a match.
Himuro's disappeared, too.
I guess I should also go
prepare for my own game.
So, you're going?
RYO HIMURO
Yes, but don't worry.
I'll be all right.
Next comes the opponent!
In the luxury cruise ship The Kengan,
there was a death match behind the scenes.
Having defeated Ryo Himuro,
a.k.a. "the Icy Emperor,"
this man obtained
his position as a fighter.
A genuinely skilled, promising fighter
is going to make
a sensational debut
after overpowering a superior!
Standing at 170 cm and weighing 73 kg,
he also makes
his kengan match debut today.
Representing Ginokuniya Bookshop,
also known as the Giant Killer,
Suekichi Kaneda!
SUEKICHI KANEDA
Hi, nice to meet you.
BOXING VS ANCIENT MARTIAL ARTS
"VOLITION"
I was born as the second son
in the Kaneda family.
I have a brother and three big sisters.
Since childhood,
I haven't been very healthy.
Before I could remember,
I almost died twice.
By the time I was about
to enter elementary school,
I'd had four operations.
There was nothing special about me.
I was just born frail.
However, I had only one thing
that set me apart from others.
That is
a craving for strength.
I can start anytime. Come on.
Please go easy on me.
KEN OHYA
Wow, I didn't know you smoke a pipe.
Oh, Kazu.
KAZUO YAMASHITA
Kaneda's game is finally about to begin.
Though we are opponents
in this tournament,
let's go drinking again
once everything's finished.
Whatever the result is.
Well, sorry to disturb you. Bye.
Wait, Kazu.
How can you be so nonchalant?
We have to start drinking right now!
Oh, Ken!
I knew you hadn't changed!
Are you talking about Toyo Electric Power?
It's true that Mr. Hayami asked me
to cooperate with him,
or rather threatened me,
but I'm not good
at obeying anybody's orders.
Wow.
It's no problem.
Unless he becomes
the chairman of the Kengan Association,
Hayami can never retaliate against me.
I have more power
than you might imagine.
In other words, everything will be okay
if I become the champion.
That's my man, Ken.
Well, to Kaneda's victory
in his first round.
Cheers!
The game is about to begin.
Suekichi Kaneda is challenging
the god of boxing!
This tournament is just a show.
It's not a place for warriors to fight.
And this man is
totally mediocre, nowhere near qualified
-even to be a part of this scene.
-It's exciting to be here, isn't it?
Even a man like him can be a fighter.
That tells me how low
the level of this tournament is.
All right.
For His Royal Highness Rama XIII
and the glory of my country,
I'm just going to crush every enemy
in my way.
Are you two ready?
Fight!
Now the 15th game has begun.
The heavyweight boxing champion
of the major four organizations,
Gaolan, is taking a stance
known as the Hitman Style.
Meanwhile, Kaneda is holding his palms
against Gaolan.
It's quite similar
to the Maeba stance of karate.
JERRY TYSON
Jerry, tell us your thoughts
about how they compare.
Kaneda has made a sound judgment.
He's keeping watch for
Gaolan's fastest attack.
A boxer's fastest attack is
not straight punch nor uppercut.
It's not the hook, either.
The answer is jab.
Besides, Gaolan's jab is regarded
as the fastest among all boxers.
It's called "Flash."
He launches a maximum of 13 jabs
in a single breath.
He's a hell of an extraordinary guy!
Thirteen jabs?
Oh, please
Don't back off, my body.
It's scared
and instinctively trying to escape.
How shameful.
Did Mr. Himuro give up the fight?
Did Lihito throw the game?
Never.
They fought till the end, right?
If it's not now, when do I go ahead?
He moved!
Kaneda is getting closer to Gaolan.
Look, he's finally gotten
within the reach of the boxer!
Hi, how are you?
I came because you didn't come to me.
That's it!
His specialty, flicker jabs!
As I thought, his jab is even faster
than the one used in boxing.
This man
In that split second,
he reacted to my move.
Wow, you are as fast as I expected.
I failed to dislocate your wrist.
Why? Even top-ranked boxers
can't follow my jab.
How could this mediocre one do it?
A nosebleed
That was such an incredible speed.
I couldn't do anything in response.
Cheap trick.
I won't fall in your trap.
Suekichi Kaneda.
KUJIN STYLE: CRESCENT SCYTHE
KUJIN STYLE: LEVER THROW
Gee, that was so close!
If you can go to the ground and grapple,
you'll gain the advantage over the boxer.
What are they looking at, amateurs?
Any plan, Kaneda?
That jerk is perfectly prepared
for submission hold, too.
You won't win if you're one step behind.
Now's the time!
Here I've got you.
That's it!
Even when you get a clean hit,
Kaneda avoids getting damaged
by slightly displacing the hit points.
It means he's adjusting to follow
the opponent's attack!
KUJIN
OVERTURNING HEAVEN/EARTH
It worked!
From that unstable stance?
This data is unavailable
from boxing matches.
It's lucky I saw it early.
His Flash comes again!
It's fast as hell!
He's displacing the hit points,
though he shouldn't be able to see
my hitting move.
A counter!
Oh, man! He's ruthlessly beating him!
Just withstand it for now.
Oops! My foot
A body blow gets stuck in straight!
Kaneda collapses,
unable to absorb the attack!
You were amazing.
Suekichi Kaneda.
Your courage deserves praise.
Don't take me lightly, you prick.
Huh?
You are the unified champion
in boxing, right?
And this is your fighting style?
Why didn't you continue attacking?
Only one more attack was needed
to make you the winner for sure.
Were you going easy on me?
Because I'm the weak one?
I've been a fan of you
since long before this match.
I repeatedly watched your matches.
No gloves, no shoes, and no rules.
Free from all the limitations, you can do
far more than this if you fight seriously!
You have a lot of spirit.
But the result is now absolute.
I admire you, Suekichi Kaneda.
I'm happy to unexpectedly see
a true warrior like you.
But
there is a great wall standing between us.
-I don't want to kill--
-So you're taking me lightly!
I know well that I have no talent.
But
it's the only thing I can do!
This man
No one should judge me.
What's wrong with the weak
aiming to be the strong?!
Kaneda
OHMA TOKITA
YAMASHITA CORPORATION
You finally showed your true colors.
It took too long.
I see now.
Among the fighters in this tournament,
he's the only one
who took over this tournament
as the weak one.
He fights to break away
from being weak.
SAW PAING YOROIZUKA
You should respond to him!
Gaolan!
I know, I will.
Sorry about that.
I didn't want to kill you.
That's why I only used my techniques
suitable for the game.
I was wrong.
For whatever reason, it's true
that I showed mercy to you.
In a fight, feeling pity for the opponent
is the same as insulting him.
Every fighter must be put
on an equal footing in a fight.
It seems my mind was full of arrogance.
I understand.
In honor of your fighting spirit,
I'll crush you with my full power.
Yeah!
Gaolan's mood has changed.
That jerk
shifted from a boxer to a fighter!
Thank you, Gaolan.
Now
KUJIN
STANCE OF YIN-YANG INTERSECTION
I can use the Foresight.
What I investigated and predicted was you
using full power, pulling off the gloves.
I tried everything.
Now, all I need to do
is to make minor adjustments.
I know.
Your strength is at a much higher level
than mine.
Once you go all out,
only a single attack could definitely
finish me off.
How excellent!
This is what I wanted.
Now, let's fight fairly!
FIRST ATTACK
SECOND ATTACK
THIRD ATTACK
FOURTH ATTACK
FIFTH AND SIXTH ATTACKS
SEVENTH ATTACK
EIGHTH ATTACK
NINTH ATTACK
It's finished!
The one who won this game is
the world boxing champion!
Gaolan Wongsawat!
Suekichi Kaneda.
I fulfilled my promise.
Tenth attack and checkmate.
I thought I could do a little more
Finishing with only ten attacks.
My overwhelming victory is
an unshakable fact.
But I went all out and you could still
resist me until my tenth attack.
It's incredible
because I'm superior to you in everything:
power, speed, and technique.
It was a good fight.
Sleep for now,
my friend.
WINNER GAME 15: "THE THAI GOD OF WAR"
PROCEEDS TO SECOND ROUND
LOSER GAME 15: "THE GIANT KILLER"
ELIMINATED IN FIRST ROUND
Mr. Kaneda
You didn't have to do this much.
Before the game, I told him
to retire.
It's because I saw what was in his bag.
It was like a trade show for pain pills.
He even had nerve block injections.
Frankly speaking, I'm strong.
And from this strong man,
he won the right to be called a fighter.
However, with his ordinary
physical capacity,
he was also badly damaged in our battle.
Now I understand the reason
why my attacks began to fail.
Kaneda was analyzing.
He predicted my attacks and
moved to a safe zone in advance.
I got too mad to detect his trick
during the battle.
But his method requires him to receive
all the attacks until finishing analyzing.
His fighting style is obviously
not for a tournament game.
I tried to stop him, telling him
he might die fighting in that condition.
But he said
No way, Mr. Himuro.
I am the one who beat Ryo Himuro.
Don't worry. I'm sure I'll win.
You are extremely cool.
If I were a woman, I would kiss you.
Ken.
I'm sorry about Kaneda.
Well, I just have to accept it.
He put up a great fight against Gaolan.
You're so easygoing.
Of course I'm feeling sorry, too,
but I could accomplish my minimum goal
at least.
Your goal?
Just joining this kind of game enables you
to show off the power of your company.
Same as the international sports games
countries use to show their flags.
Oh, I see.
It's amazing enough that you can easily
pay five billion yen for the entry fee.
As a result, I got four new businesses
after arriving on the island
which will soon cover the cost
of five billion yen.
Seriously?
But honestly, I was aiming
to be the champion.
Himuro was the strongest fighter
in our company's history.
Then Kaneda won against Himuro.
Those two made me dream of a good future.
I think I might be jealous of them.
They're the opposite of people like us,
full of calculations,
they just crave pure strength.
Ken
We still have a good future!
Right!
PREVIEW
The King of Combat,
the living legend, comes in.
Fang of Metsudo,
the overwhelming emperor, shows up.
A giant clash of two great kings.
Both of them are as powerful
as the final boss!
