Kapitel 172: Overwhelming and a Proposal
"You can do it, Bert!"
Bert didn't have high expectations for his strength and especially combat skills. But in front of his Cobra Kai friends, he couldn't let them be embarrassed to have him as a member, so he would do his best to at least put up a good fight.
"Do you really think you can take on my Cobra Kai guy? You've believed that you dominate in the realm of Karate, but you've only reopened for no more than a year and haven't faced real fighters yet." Paul raised his guard, looked coldly at Bert, preparing for the fight.
Bert felt strange; all the Cobra Kai students fell silent upon hearing these words that, though true, were hurtful. No one had focused on the fighters of Sakura Bushido because they had won the tournament, but seeing all these strong fighters made them realize that they had underestimated the true level of that martial arts school a bit.
"Now!"
Facing Bert's attack, Paul's expression cooled even more. Without the need to dodge, he faced Bert's attack directly with his fist.
Boom!
A strong wave of force surged from the blow, causing Bert to recoil to the point that he almost went off the combat mat. Bert was recovering, but at that moment, a quick kick landed on his right shoulder, almost taking him out of the established combat boundaries.
Everyone fell silent. They knew Bert was the weakest in terms of combat, but that was because he didn't have as big a body as others, giving him a disadvantage in strength. But seeing him lose without even being able to do anything surprised everyone; no one could react at this speed of combat, let alone do something against those attacks.
"Point!"
"Both back to your positions. Ready? Fight!" Johnny shouted without showing any emotion on his face. He knew exactly that many would get a beating, and this would make them focus more.
Considering Sakura Bushido's combat level, this would let all Cobra Kai students know that they are not strong but are still seeking true strength. Maybe winning that tournament was a good thing, but if they think they're on top just because of that, they're wrong.
Paul smiled as he watched Bert recover, raised his hands, and as soon as it was announced that the fight would continue, he took a step forward.
Bert, feeling embarrassed and very sore, thought he was doing things wrong, that he was ashamed in front of his peers, so regardless of anything, he went on the direct attack.
But what he didn't know is that Paul, although he had been in Sakura Bushido for no more than a year, was learning from Chozen himself, so his skills in Karate had advanced by leaps and bounds with the true power of Miyagi-Do.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Dodging Bert's continuous blows, the moment he started an unrestrained attack, Paul switched to defense while patiently waiting for his opponent to tire, and at that moment, he would strike.
Raising his eyebrows slightly, Paul was surprised by his opponent's resilience, but that was all. He couldn't worry too much about this person's Karate level because he couldn't break through his defense.
Having seen enough and knowing perfectly well that Bert's attack level had decreased, Paul positioned himself, and leaning slightly, his elbow hit Bert's stomach, who didn't expect Paul to make such a sudden move.
"Huff...."
Spitting out all the air from his stomach upon receiving the blow, Bert knew he had no chance against this opponent.
"Ouch!" Bert, who fell to his knees while holding his stomach, tried to get up, but knowing that the result would be the same even if he got up, Johnny decided not to press him.
"Point, winner!"
"I can continue, Sensei!" Bert said as he stood up.
Johnny knew that his student wanted to continue, but if he fought again, it would be the same result because Paul's Karate level was superior, and in physical terms, there was no comparison between the two fighters.
"You did well, take a little rest." Johnny said as he nodded to his student. He didn't want him to feel bad, but these results were expected from the beginning.
Bert nodded, walked off the mat, and sat on the floor while holding his stomach. To be honest, he wanted to keep fighting, but his confidence had crumbled with those two points scored so easily without even being able to counterattack.
"What a shame..." Bert murmured, feeling embarrassed, but when he looked up, all his peers looked at him without any malice in their faces.
To be honest, no one expected Bert to win the fight. What everyone expected from him was to fight as much as he could to learn more deeply about Sakura Bushido's Karate. This was his victory, so no one except Kreese was angry with these results.
"Next, Nate, it's your turn!" Johnny sent his weaker soldiers as cannon fodder so that his stronger students would be ready for the real fight.
The first five fights were truly a total loss for Cobra Kai, making everyone feel a bit depressed and ashamed of their poor performance.
"Oh my God..." Kreese murmured as he saw each Cobra Kai student being defeated one after another.
Hawk on the side muttered, "Even though I expected this, it's still very embarrassing. How can we look so weak?"
"I hope Mitch can do something..." Miguel tried not to take it too seriously, but seeing defeat after defeat was something that really didn't sit well with him.
Seeing that Paul was tired, Chozen walked over to Johnny and asked, "Now that the best fights are coming, why don't we start changing students so that all of Sakura Bushido's students can fight with Cobra Kai's?"
"That sounds good, let's do that..." Johnny didn't have the face to complain that Chozen was underestimating his students because so far, it was defeat after defeat.

Kapitel 173: The Changes
A few long minutes later...
"Winner, Mitch is the winner!"
Paul, who really wanted to leave because he was tired, bowed after losing and returned to his Sakura Bushido teammates, who nodded at him as he greeted them.
"You need to focus more on defense when we get back. You could have won if you weren't desperate to win. That guy has a more robust body, it was wise to think he would get tired faster," Devon said as Paul returned, leaving everyone in silence.
Paul nodded silently, wiped off the sweat, and sighed for having lost before the changes were announced. A real shame, he just hoped not to have disappointed his teammates.
"You did well, just concentrate better next time and apply what Devon said," Dash praised Paul, who had really been putting in effort from the beginning.
"Yes!"
Chozen took a step forward and said, "Alright, the first fights were impressive, but we'll change things up a bit. Each Sakura Bushido fighter will go once, and you too. You can fight someone who has already fought, or you can choose the next fighter."
Johnny nodded and said, "Remember, you can only choose fighters who haven't defeated someone else, so you can choose from the next or one who has already won."
"Yes, Sensei!"
With everything clear, Chozen took a step forward and said, "Oliver against Mitch!"
"You know how this goes, three points for the winner. Ready? Attention, bow, look at each other, bow!"
"Fight!"
Oliver was the last of Sakura Bushido's young promises. Liam, who had reached the final, was now a very strong warrior, so he was not at the levels Oliver and Paul were, but they were still the best of the young ones who would go far.
"I hope to see the best of you!" Oliver looked at Mitch approaching and waved his hand.
"Now!"
As Mitch's voice faded away, Oliver's eyes narrowed. In just one step, he fiercely charged towards Mitch, who maintained a proud expression on his face for defeating Paul.
Many people had classified Oliver as an ordinary guy, so his appearance was quite normal. He had brown hair, a bit tousled, and a pair of small eyes.
Oliver was a short guy; everyone would think he could be easily defeated, but at that moment, they understood. As Mitch's attack approached, Oliver did not retreat. Better yet, to the crowd's astonishment, he took a step forward as his right hand quickly extended to deflect Mitch's fist. While Mitch's fist hit the air, he attacked Mitch's chest.
"Point!"
"Damn..." Mitch muttered, feeling a sharp pain in his chest. Now he looked at Oliver with a somewhat furious expression and quickly raised his fists, waiting for the combat to restart.
Chozen, who didn't want to delay the fight, said, "Ready? Fight!"
"Ahhhh!!!!" Letting out a thunderous roar, Mitch wanted to intimidate Oliver and threw a punch directly at his chest.
But in that instant, Oliver diverted that punch with an upward blow.
Just as Mitch's punch was diverted, Oliver's body posture changed abruptly in his advance. He clenched his right hand and formed a fist, as soon as he approached, he attacked to land a punch on Mitch's chest again. In an instant, a powerful punch landed on Mitch's side, who couldn't react at that speed. Oliver wasn't powerful; he was just very fast, leaving Mitch out of the possibilities of defeating him.
"Point!"
"You're very fast, but now I'll wait for you to come closer," Mitch said, looking directly into Oliver's eyes.
"Ready? Fight!" Chozen shouted after seeing that both had had a few seconds to rest and prepare again.
Mitch now wanted to maintain his posture, take control of the fight, and see how good Oliver was in the second round.
But at that moment, unexpectedly, Oliver ran towards him, and in an instant, he initiated a series of powerful and fast attacks that overwhelmed his defense.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Mitch's problem was that he was slow; having a robust body, his speed wasn't much, and against Oliver, who was extremely fast, he had no chance.
Looking at his opponent, Oliver feigned a move, and in a spin, his elbow landed forcefully on Mitch's stomach, who exclaimed in pain and anger at feeling the blow.
"Point!"
"Winner, Oliver!"
