Penny Smith held her breath as she looked at Nathan with her face full of worry.
Only when Kanechi Kyou's fist was a few centimeters away from his face did Nathan made his move.
Nathan Cross lifted his left hand casually and wrapped his palm around Kanechi's fist. He had successfully absorbed all of the impact from the seemingly formidable punch.
What!
Kanechi's eyes gaped wide. All of the strength within my Tyrant's Body was gathered in this one punch and it was received by Nathan with such ease?
A few seconds passed by and Kanechi still had not regained his senses.
Nathan chuckled with disdain. "I have already taken three of your blows. Time for you to take one of mine."
Right after he was done talking, Nathan lifted his leg in a flash.
Bam!
His kick struck Kanechi Kyou in the chest.
Both of Kanechi's feet left the ground as he was thrown up into the air.
Nathan immediately drew back his strength once his shin had come into contact with Kanechi's chest.
He had cut off all the energy in his leg in abruptness. Because of this, Kaneshi Kyou who was supposed to be launched towards the distance behind by Nathan's kick, weirdly stayed motionless on top of Nathan's boot.
The atmosphere was dead silent.
Nathan was still in his stance of a kick while Kanechi's swollen body was stuck to his right leg.
The scene ahead looked like a rifle lifting up a heavy wild boar with its thin body.
Everyone at the scene was completely startled.
Out of a sudden, Nathan retracted his leg.
Thump! Kanechi fell flat onto the ground and agitated the dirt around him into a cloud of dust.
Many of the bones in his body were fractured. He could not even pick himself up anymore.
Owing to Nathan's mercy, Kanechi had escaped the fate of being literally crushed to death.
Nathan looked at Kanechi who was lying on the ground scornfully and uttered, "Now, you can finally explain yourself."
Kanechi raised his head in a struggle and stared at Nathan in total despair and fear. "I fought all the way from your nation to Japan. I have established myself here and gained thousands of followers, but I have never come across anyone as formidable as you."
"Who... are you exactly?"
