''Eh?!'' Michael, Sariel, and Rafael exclaimed simultaneously, with faces filled with shock.

Giron removed his hand from the wall and looked at Ichiro seriously.

Ichiro's facial expression didn't change under Giron's powerful gaze.

The corner of Giron's mouth was slightly curved, and he said, ''Fine, let's see how much the so-called Heavenly Child has improved.''

Ichiro stood up and stretched his numb muscles.

Michael, Sariel, and Rafael went to warn everyone in the building to stand further away.

Giron removed his jacket and threw it to the chair. His leg muscles started bulging, and next, he was standing fifty meters away from Ichiro.

Michael closed the door of the building, so there won't be any curious eyes looking inside.

After done, he and the rest of the Martial Club members retreated as far as they could.

Ichiro took the tape from the nearby shelf and wrapped his hands with it. After he was done taping his hands, he moved his fingers and hands around, and after he was sure that it won't hinder his movements, he turned around to face Giron, whose presence alone made everyone think that fighting him was a bad idea.

''Ready?'' Ichiro heard Giron's voice clearly like he was standing right next to him.

''Yes.'' He replied and went into his Predatory Fighting Stance.

His eyes narrowed to slits as he was being wary of every movement Giron makes.

Giron didn't make fun of his seriousness; instead, he went into his fighting stance as well. His two hands were in front of him with his right leg slightly in front with his left leg on the back.

''I won't use Power Trait.'' Giron suddenly said, and once Ichiro started looking displeased, he continued, ''It is better to battle with only our techniques since Power Traits can give a false sense of strength.''

Ichiro sighed and nodded.

Giron clenched his fist and smirked, ''Look out!'' He went into a punching stance, and even though he was still 50 meters away from Ichiro, he felt a threat coming from Giron's fist.

*BOOM*

Once Giron's punch was unleashed, a loud boom sound echoed in the vast building, and the next thing that happened was a sudden appearance of shockwave!

Ichiro widened his eyes, and once he blinked, he saw the shockwave rushing straight towards him, destroying everything on its path and making a mess out of the wooden floor.

Ichiro quickly moved out of the way, but the impact of the shockwave wasn't only focused on one direction. The shockwave sent a small blast of shock towards him, which sent him sliding backwards unwillingly.

His feet slid on the wooden floor, and once he was about to collide with the metal walls, his body came to a stop.

*BOOM!*

The shockwave crashed on the wall, which made the whole building shake one more time.

Outside the building.

Students and passersby's who were close proximity of the school were confused after seeing the Martial Arts Club building shaking like a miniature earthquake was happening inside.

Inside the building.

Ichiro's body moved like a streak of lightning as he approached Giron's figure, who was so far, yet so close.

Giron didn't have any plans on letting him come close. He put his two hands wide, like he was prepared to receive a hug, but instead, he slammed his two palms together, which caused a burst of wind pressure to appear.

Ichiro, who was only 5 meters away from Giron, was once again sent flying after getting so close!

He looked slightly frustrated, but with his nimble movements, he landed on the ground and again bursted into motion.

[Iron Burst!]

Once his right foot touched the floor, his body disappeared, and he appeared only 10 meters from Giron, but he was already prepared for Ichiro's counter-attack!

Giron once again unleashed a punch, which caused a shockwave, and he expected it to hit Ichiro without any problems, but something unexpected happened.

Ichiro was already prepared for Giron's attack.

[Ironic Shift!]

He predicted Giron's next move and was already ready to do a small burst of speed to dodge the attack.

*SWOOSH*

This time, he dodged way more because if he tried to dodge as little as possible, so he could attack quicker, the shockwave would be there to stop him.

Like it happened in the first collision.

That's why he dodged easily over 10 meters, which increased the distance between Ichiro and Giron even more!

It wasn't exactly what Ichiro hoped, but he didn't have any other choice.

Michael, Sariel, and Rafael looked at the scene with wry smiles. They expected something like this to happen.

Ichiro simply isn't strong enough to contend against a variety of the attacks Martial Kings can do.

Giron slightly smiled and asked, ''Are we finished?''

''Hehehe...'' But, he heard Ichiro's small laughter, and soon he saw his grey eyes starting to shine in greater intensity

'What is with his eyes?' Giron frowned, 'They were black when we met last time... Why are they suddenly grey? And why do I... Feel a threat coming from them?'

''Whew...'' Ichiro took a deep breath, and his pupils dilated as he bursted into motion!

[Iron Burst!]

[Iron Burst!]

[Iron Burst!]

In the eyes of everyone in the building, it looked like Ichiro was teleporting as he was getting closer to Giron with each passing second!

Only one person managed to see Ichiro's movement, and that was Giron!

Giron could clearly see everything Ichiro was doing, but he didn't attack because his shockwave and wind pressure attack isn't fast enough to hit Ichiro in time.

The first time in this fight, Giron made a move that was part of his Style!

[Spiral Style!]

Giron moved his hands in front of him, like he was drawing a spiral in front of him, and soon... An illusionary figure of a spiral appeared in front of him!

Once Ichiro reached 5 meters from Giron, his movements came to a stop after seeing a threat coming from Giron's movements.

After the spiral was finished forming, Giron put his palm on it and said calmly, ''Spiral Style, First Technique, Spiral.''

The illusionary spiral started suddenly spinning, but that was not all; the spiral started moving straight towards Ichiro at a slow yet steady pace.
