Kapitel 616: Chapter 616: Disrupting the Formation
As the time approached 3:00 p.m., more and more people turned on their televisions and switched to the local channel of Global TV, waiting for the upcoming competition to begin.
The atmosphere was intense. Akito Nakamura and the others who were there saw so many people, and the reporters from the TV station and various media outlets were all present, and they all had a solemn expression on their faces.
'Kawashima-kun, we absolutely cannot lose this battle, otherwise karate will never recover in Hong Kong, and we will all be guilty of the downfall of karate!'
Akito Nakamura said with a grave expression.
At the moment, there were thousands of people in the audience, and reporters from all the major newspapers had been sent. Even the Global TV station was broadcasting the event live. With Global TV's current position as the dominant television broadcaster in Hong Kong, it had at least 50% of the viewing share at the same time slot. Therefore, Nakamura Akito could fully imagine the impact of this competition.
It could be said that the agreed bet on failure in the morning was not even worthy of mentioning in the face of the impact of defeat.
They simply cannot afford to lose this fight. If they lose, for at least ten years, karate will never be able to hold its head up in Hong Kong, and this stain will follow Hong Kong karate for the rest of its life, unless they can once again defeat Kyokubudo and wash away the stain.
Of course, if they win, the benefits will be unparalleled. Not only will they be able to strike a blow at the national self-confidence of the Chinese in Hong Kong, but karate will also resound throughout Hong Kong.
This fight can be described as heaven on one side and hell on the other!
"Nakamura-kun, put it down. For the fate and honour of karate, I will fight to the death to win!'
Kawashima Taro said with gritted teeth, his tone full of determination.
He had caused this mess, and it had gotten out of hand. Although Nakamura Akihito and Ishikawa Takuto had not lectured him, he felt a lot of self-reproach and guilt in his heart. The only remedy was to do his best to win.
Just then, a host appeared in the ring to provide commentary for the audience in the arena and those watching on TV.
'The two combatants in this fight are Kyokubudo and Karate. The fight will consist of three rounds, and the format will be free fighting, until one side loses the ability to resist or concedes defeat. The winner will be the side that wins two rounds. The losing side will close the martial arts school in Causeway Bay and shout three times that they are no match for the other side.'
'Now, please send representatives from both sides to draw lots. The side with the lower number will send someone to fight in the first round, the other side will send someone in the second round, and so on.'
'Please!'
The rules of the commentary, fair and just, were agreed upon by both Li Wuyang and Nakamura Akito. Because the rules of Kyokubudo and karate are different, this duel does not use the point system of a performance competition, but a more fierce actual combat competition, where the winner is decided by fists.
Immediately, Li Wuyang and Nakamura Akito went onto the stage. A stack of neatly arranged playing cards was placed on the table. In front of the camera, the two drew one card each and then flipped them over at the same time.
Li Wuyang's card was the Ace of Hearts, while Nakamura Akito's was the King of Spades.
Seeing this, Nakamura Akito let out a sigh of relief and gave a mocking smile, trying to influence Li Wuyang's state of mind: 'I'm sorry, it seems that fate has destined you to lose!'
Li Wu Yang gave him a cold glance and walked straight down the stage.
'Yan, according to the original plan, you go up in the first round!'
'Okay, boss!'
After Xia Yu finished speaking, Yan Shining, dressed in full fighting gear, jumped straight onto the stage, stood with his hands behind his back, and looked completely composed. This aura of a master made many people applaud.
'It's not Li Wuyang, but a stranger. Could it be that they've hired an outsider? This completely violates the rules!'
Seeing the unfamiliar face of Yan Shining, Kawashima Taro frowned and said doubtfully.
The information they had collected was about the three father and son Li Chunyu, Li Wuyang and Li Wuming, not Yan Shining. They had thought that the first match would be against Li Wuyang or Li Wuming, but they never expected it to be a stranger, which completely disrupted their plan.
Akito Nakamura narrowed his eyes and observed Yan Shining for a moment, then shook his head and said, 'They shouldn't break the rules. Maybe our intelligence gathering was incomplete. We won't know if they are from the Jibo Do school until later.'
'This person is a master!'
Taku Ishikawa, who had been narrowing his eyes for a long time, suddenly spoke up to warn, causing Akito Nakamura and Taro Kawashima to look serious in an instant.
'Kawashima-kun, although the plan has been disrupted, you will still fight in the first match. Go all out!'
Akihito Nakamura placed a hand on Taro Kawashima's shoulder and solemnly instructed him.
Taro Kawashima nodded emphatically and then walked towards the ring.
'Both fighters are in position. Let's get to know the two fighters.'
After the host finished speaking, he walked up to YAN Shining and put the microphone in front of him, asking, 'Sir, please give a brief introduction of yourself.'
Yan Shining said calmly without changing his expression: 'Yan Shining, one of the founders of the Jidubudo martial arts school, is also the general manager and chief instructor of Hong Kong's Aegis Security Company!'
'Wow...'
As Yan Shining finished his introduction, there was an immediate uproar. Aegis Security was now very famous in Xiangjiang. The security work for all the enterprises affiliated with the Jiuding Consortium was done by Aegis Security. All the security guards wore a uniform and shoulder patches. The citizens of Xiangjiang often saw Aegis Security guards when they came into contact with the enterprises affiliated with the Jiuding Consortium.
I never imagined that Yan Shining was the general manager and chief instructor of Aegis Security. That's a very intimidating title.
Akito Nakamura and the others' faces changed slightly when they heard this, and they secretly thought to themselves, "This is trouble." But for now, they could only pin their hopes on Kawashima Taro, who was on the podium.
On the other side, in the VIP stand close to Li Wuyang and the others, Bao Yugang smiled and asked Xia Yu, 'Xia Sheng, I remember that Yan Shining was originally your personal bodyguard, and this first match seems like a sure win.'
'Xia Sheng, the quality of your Aegis Security employees is really high, and as the head instructor, Yan Shining would be a disgrace if he didn't win,'
Huo Yingdong joked.
Xia Yu gave a confident smile and said, 'We'll see. I wonder if the little devils can last more than three minutes!'
'Oh? So confident? Then I'll have to watch carefully.'
Just as Xia Yu and the others were chatting, Kawashima Taro also introduced himself as the owner of the Xiangjiang Karate Dojo, which also caused an uproar among the audience. Both sides were big shots, and the first match was full of things to watch.
'Now I announce the start of the first match!'
The host, who also served as the referee, immediately left the ring after announcing it, leaving plenty of space for the two to fight.
In the midst of the anticipation, Yan Shining made a very martial arts starting gesture, allowing Kawashima Taro to attack first, clearly showing his contempt for him.
A flash of anger crossed Kawashima Taro's eyes. He took a deep breath, took a half turn with a steady pace, and then suddenly launched an attack, sweeping Yan Shining's leg fiercely.
