- The Reincarnation World Where Only I Know the Storyline
- RWWOKS Chapter 245
A deafening boom rang out, and the violent wind that had swept through the arena gradually dissipated.
The audience knew that the clash of ultimate moves between the two fighters must have come to an end.
“Who won?” This was the question everyone was curious about.
Ordinary spectators could only rely on their instincts to guess, while the fighters had a clearer understanding.
“Dong Zhang will win,” Terry said confidently.
It wasn’t that he was favoring his teammate, but because the opponent, after continuous battles, had already lost the sharpness he had when he first entered the arena.
In a battle between the two, it was clear that it was somewhat unfair.
Most of the fighters shared a similar thought, with even Iori Yagami, the second combatant, standing up.
He too believed that their team would lose this match.
Among all the onlookers, only Goenitz still had unwavering confidence in the man.
The wild wind could obscure others, but it couldn’t deceive her.
In that brief moment, something truly incredible had taken place inside the storm.
“You’ve given me another surprise,” she chuckled, flipping through a book, continuing to read the modern-day “toxic positivity” that seemed more addicting the longer she looked at it.
As the hurricane finally subsided, the situation in the arena became visible to everyone.
Fang Bo stood somewhat unsteadily, while the fighter everyone had favored lay sprawled beneath the ring.
[You have earned 500 storyline points.]
There was no doubt that Fang Bo had won this fight once again.
Amid the cheers and discussions from the crowd, he couldn’t help but glance at the recent battle report.
[Your King of the Heavens Roar Fist hit the target, causing 335 points of Qi Force damage.]
This move, the King of the Heavens Roar Fist, had dealt the most terrifying damage ever recorded.
The 35% power boost from the Nightmare energy alone had added a full 87 extra points of damage to the opponent.
This legendary feature was gradually revealing its power, but at the cost of draining Fang Bo‘s mental energy to the brink.
If he hadn’t been able to knock Dong Zhang out of the ring, he would have had to rely on Kyo Kusanagi’s help.
Fortunately, the worst-case scenario hadn’t happened. He had managed to defeat two strong opponents by using clever tactics.
“The third round… that won’t be so easy,” he thought to himself.
On the sidelines, Terry finally revived his unconscious teammate.
“I… What happened?” Dong Zhang looked around in confusion, realizing a moment later that he had lost.
Poor Dong Zhang had no idea what had just happened. All he remembered was feeling King of the Heavens Roar Fist slam into his back.
“Maybe I was wrong… the enemy must have circled behind me,” he muttered, thinking over it, and this was the only explanation that made sense.
Seeing that he didn’t even understand how he lost, his teammates exchanged glances, then turned their attention to the last hope.
The Hungry Wolf, Terry, was about to step onto the stage.
He lowered the brim of his hat, gave a thumbs up to the crowd, and flashed a smile filled with unwavering confidence.
“Don’t worry, leave everything to me.”
With that, he turned and strode toward the arena.
The unfulfilled anger and frustration of his teammates would be repaid with his fists.
The atmosphere around him became increasingly intense, like a looming avalanche. Terry was truly enraged—he was going to shatter all the mockery with his fists.
Facing such a terrifying figure, Fang Bo, whose mental energy was already at rock bottom, felt a bit unsteady on his feet.
He knew that, at this moment, he couldn’t win. Even at his peak, his chances of victory against Terry wouldn’t exceed thirty percent.
Many had speculated that the most likely fighter to rise to the top was the Strongest Dragon, but from Fang Bo’s observations, Terry, the Hungry Wolf, was the one who was truly on the brink of becoming a top-tier fighter.
Once he crossed that threshold, Terry would be a force comparable to the likes of Kyo Kusanagi and Iori Yagami.
Arriving at the center of the arena, Terry’s gaze locked onto him, like a beast eyeing its prey.
“I won’t hold back. If you want to surrender, do it now,” he said coldly.
Fang Bo didn’t even bother to respond.
The achievement task was right in front of him—how could he back down just because of one sentence?
“Focus on yourself first,” he replied.
No sooner had the words left his mouth than the referee announced the start of the match.
“Support!” Fang Bo finally activated his trump card, initiating Levitation and soaring into the air above the arena.
He had worked tirelessly to complete his mission, battling numerous strong foes to the death—all to grab hold of a powerful ally.
Ah, but it seemed like he was now holding onto three legs at once.
Although the number was a bit excessive, Fang Bo’s core belief remained unchanged.
“Never do the heavy lifting when you can rely on others.”
In fact, Terry hadn’t expected Fang Bo to be so straightforward about it.
The man’s posture was clear—he wasn’t going to fight. He was leaving everything to his support teammates.
Sure, the rules were set that way, but didn’t Terry think about the face of a fighter?
Before he could voice his frustration, the hot, blistering energy enveloped him entirely.
Terry knew better than to hesitate, and without a moment’s thought, he unleashed his strongest attack.
MAX Super Move: Energy Fountain!
He harnessed the power of the earth itself, channeling a terrifying surge of energy into a single point.
Its intensity was so overwhelming that even Fang Bo, floating high above, could feel the shockwaves.
“Compared to this, my King of the Heavens Roar Fist doesn’t even measure up,” Fang Bo thought.
However, just because he couldn’t defeat Terry didn’t mean Kyo Kusanagi would lose.
Facing the crushing force of his opponent’s move, Kyo Kusanagi unleashed his ultimate technique—the one said to rival Kyo’s Zero Form.
MAX Super Move: 524th Form: Divine Dust!
With one punch after another, Kyo Kusanagi began unleashing fury against the surging earth energy, using the most violent and unyielding way to counterattack.
The raging energy clashed violently, with both fighters pushing their limits. Fang Bo couldn’t help but sweat in nervous anticipation.
“Please, don’t drag me into this.”
Boom!
With a thunderous explosion, the two figures were sent flying in opposite directions.
From the outside, it seemed like an even contest, but Fang Bo knew the truth. In terms of raw power, Terry had taken a hit he hadn’t anticipated.
In terms of sheer strength, Kyo Kusanagi was currently unbeatable. The king’s aura, once lost, was gradually returning to him.
This was the symbol that Kyo Zero was starting to replace the original protagonist.
Once he claimed the King of Fighters title, he would truly be the strongest fighter.
The seven seconds ended, and the battle had yet to be decided. With no other option, Fang Bo immediately called for a second round of support.
Kyo Kusanagi, who had just left the arena, glanced up in confusion at the request, thinking to himself, If you’re going to go this far, you might as well just forfeit.
But as always, when it was time to strike, he did so without hesitation.
Stepping back into the ring, this time Kyo Kusanagi was determined to use his signature move to bring the fight to a close.
MAX Super Move: 108th Form: Serpent Slash!
With a single sweep of his hand, a torrent of blazing flames surged toward his enemy.
At the same time, the tiles beneath Kyo Kusanagi‘s feet suddenly began to tremble. The next second, he was struck by an explosion of energy.
MAX Super Move: High Orbit Fountain!
In the second round, both fighters were clearly locked in a brutal, mutual destruction.
At this moment, Fang Bo couldn’t help but admire Terry. The guy was truly brave—he didn’t flinch in the slightest against Kyo Kusanagi.
Whether it was a head-to-head fight or a desperate exchange of blows, as long as Terry was willing, he would stay in the fight to the end.
“Too bad, the gap in strength won’t change because of this,” Fang Bo thought.
Soon, Fang Bo activated his final support attack.
For Kyo Kusanagi, this match was crucial. After disappearing for so long, he would not allow his first battle back to end in defeat.
No, even a draw wouldn’t be acceptable.
Memories flashed in his mind, and he concentrated hard to channel his emotions.
Without this, it would be impossible to easily enter his Demonized State.
Finally, he succeeded in unlocking his strongest form.
Surrounded by fierce flames, the man called the strongest made his dramatic return.
In a single swing, a fist lashed out from dozens of meters away, and a violent vortex of flames immediately engulfed the entire arena.
MAX2 Super Move: 127th Form: Great Serpent Slash!
Terry tried to resist, but in the rush, he couldn’t activate his own MAX-level move in time.
The result of his hurried defense was that he was completely blown off the stage by Kyo Kusanagi’s attack.
The noble son of the flames, draped in white, demonstrated to the world what it meant to be the true return of a king.
Kyo Kusanagi reveled in the endless glory, while Fang Bo was once again bombarded with a relentless barrage of space notifications.
[You have earned 500 storyline points.]
Storyline Points: 16,989
Having won three consecutive matches, Fang Bo‘s storyline points had now reached a total of 16,989.
If he won two more rounds, his funds would exceed the 20,000 mark.
In addition, he had completed the first achievement task for this world.
[Achievement: One Against Three (Completed)]
[You have earned the title “Winning Streak.”]
Winning Streak LV1: For every enemy defeated, instantly restore 2 HP.
This title was perfect for group battles, especially for those with AOE (Area of Effect) abilities. One well-placed skill could probably restore full health.
Unfortunately, this title wasn’t very suitable for Fang Bo—it would just serve as materials for upgrading other titles.
As for the next possible achievement… the most likely one was the No-Damage Victory.
[KO-Perfect!]: Win a match without taking damage.
He had a chance to complete this in the first match, but Mary had ruined it for him. His health was never full in the next two rounds, which disqualified him from the achievement.
“Next time, I must be more careful. I’d rather waste some mental energy than take any damage.”
Rubbing his aching head, Fang Bo knew that he wouldn’t be able to grind for experience anymore.
Although 50 points of mental energy seemed like a lot, it would quickly deplete with the slightest use.
Back in the players’ rest area, Fang Bo took the opportunity to claim the side mission he hadn’t completed yet—“Hungry Wolf Pursuit”.
As stated at the start of the competition, if he won, Terry’s team would no longer pursue him.
Thus, this side mission was now considered complete.
[Side Mission: Hungry Wolf Pursuit (Completed)]
[You have earned 500 storyline points.]
[You have earned a Skill Upgrade Scroll (Passive).]
Upon seeing the Passive Skill Upgrade Scroll, Fang Bo couldn’t help but feel that it was a perfect stroke of luck.
Just when he had lamented that his mental energy was running low, here came an upgrade that added 5 more points to his energy pool.
Passive Skill: Shadow Seal LV4 (25 points of mental energy)
What seemed like an insignificant task had directly saved him 4,000 storyline points. Fang Bo had to admit—sometimes even the smallest tasks could bring the greatest rewards.
The fifth match was quickly underway, and this time it was Psychic Warriors vs. Clone Team—the team led by the Chosen One, Constantine.
Everyone had expected a fierce battle, hoping to observe the enemy’s strength. However, things took an unexpected turn: the Chosen One was absent from the match.
As for the performance of the three Reincarnators, it was simply a tragic sight. They had no resistance and were quickly defeated.
Booing erupted from the crowd, as they were deeply disappointed by such a dull match.
Thankfully, the next match was bound to be more exciting.
The sixth match featured a passionate battle between Fatal Fury Team and South Town Team.
This fight was intense.
Fighters from both sides took turns stepping into the arena, and the match was only decided after one final, exhausting confrontation.
Thanks to the slight advantage created by Olsen’s Berserk Mode, Fatal Fury Team successfully eliminated the famous South Town Team.
After all, this was the South Town Team’s home turf. It was surprising that they were knocked out in the first round.
“Shouldn’t there have been some backstage manipulation?” Fang Bo mused.
With his headache easing, Fang Bo sat up straight, eagerly looking forward to the upcoming match.
The seventh match: Nests Team vs. Hell’s League Team!
One team represented the Nests, while the other represented Orochi’s Eight Heavenly Kings—this was a match full of symbolic significance.
