Chapter 185: Eastern Kung Fu (Part 2)
To be realistic, Zabuka's strength is indeed not weak.
If he had chosen He Chen Guang as his opponent, the result would probably not be good.
Unfortunately, he chose Xu Tianlong……
Zabuka looked at Xu Tianlong standing before him, slowly unbuttoned his buttons, took off his shirt, and revealed the muscles he was proud of.
Zabuka, over 1.8 meters tall, at least in visual effect, is not inferior to any male Hollywood tough-guy type movie star.
Compared to him, Xu Tianlong is of similar height but at least fifty jin lighter, undoubtedly appearing somewhat frail.
Without another word, the two almost simultaneously launched an attack at each other.
The ragged cloth strips wrapped around their wrists had by now been completely soaked through with blood.
At one, one look `no, mistaken version%!'
Otherwise, once Zabuka controls the rhythm, he will become passive.
Next, in Zabuka's view, Xu Tianlong, who would surely continue retreating to dodge his heavy blows, suddenly surged forward, crashing into Zabuka's fist and into his embrace.
Even Gongnasong picked up Zabuka's half-finished can of beer and took a big, leisurely gulp.
Xu Tianlong struck Zabuka's chest with his shoulder, and this blow was not a casual one; it was a famous killing move, now rarely known—'Iron Mountain Lean', the most powerful and deadly technique in Eight Extremes Fist.
With such a large build, he actually trained karate to this extent; just this alone qualifies Zabuka to receive Xu Tianlong's serious attention and basic respect.
I don't know if it's because Zabuka's recent aggressiveness made the Gongnasong brothers resentful; up to now, the two descendants of Vikings have not picked up the guns slung on their shoulders, but instead wear a spectator's expression, arms crossed, smiling.
If this continues, even if Zabuka merely seizes one opportunity, Xu Tianlong will surely lose! And losing at this point is not just a matter of winning or losing a match.
Of course, that is assuming they are fighting in the arena.
What surprised Xu Tianlong was that Zabuka was not using boxing or similar martial arts, but genuine karate!
This guy's proposal to spar with me is obviously purpose-driven.
Even if Zabuka would spare his name because of the Owl's words, even if he ultimately survives, he will surely become a cripple.
However, the seemingly simple moves Zabuka employed, in the face of his absolute strength, for a moment truly left Xu Tianlong with no way to deal with him.
Could this kid be crazy? His current attack is charged and released, almost gathering his whole body's power into the forward smashing punch.
He simply cannot clench his fist to exert force, otherwise the blood at the wound would flow out faster. Even if the cloth strips are tightened, they truly cannot achieve hemostasis.
Although Xu Tianlong knows that Chen Shanming and the others will eventually find this place, he cannot be certain when.
The Zabuka before him is his best and only opportunity.
After growing up, his martial arts direction also changed accordingly. Shocked, astonished, disbelieving……
By this time, Xu Tianlong and Zabuka had already exchanged over ten moves.
Xu Tianlong has no doubt that Zabuka, upon defeating him, will immediately come to sever his tendons.
"Bang!"
And now, they are in a life-or-death relationship.
In fact, Xu Tianlong's right hand can now only be considered a decoration.
This guy not only has the strength to fight him, but is also quite cunning.
Moreover, he also has some understanding of Eastern Kung Fu! Left with no choice, Xu Tianlong took a deep breath, after deflecting Zabuka's knife-hand strike aimed at his neck, he stepped back half a step and then stomped his rear foot hard on the ground.
Next, he would completely cripple this Eastern soldier! Who let him know martial arts! In Zabuka's eyes, all Easterners who know martial arts give him reason to cripple them! Too bad, this is merely his wishful thinking.
If they were entangled by the Owl's other subordinates, those four who have already fallen into enemy hands would probably not fare well.
Zabuka is a bit dazed.
With a muffled thud, Zabuka felt a surge in his chest, then numbness, then as if a fire ignited in his chest cavity, scorching his lungs, he suddenly opened his mouth and spat out a mouthful of blood.
A series of thoughts instantly arose in Zabuka's mind, but it was already too late.
Just as he had figured out how to cripple this Eastern soldier who knows martial arts, and then also dispose of that other similarly skilled but weaker guy, he suddenly discovered that Xu Tianlong, who had clearly struck his fist, instantly twisted his body into a strange angle, dodging his fist.
Although he showed no concern for his right-hand injury, even deliberately feigning unaffected attacks, he still couldn't fool this guy who seemed drunk.
Xu Tianlong knows he cannot continue to entangle with him like this.
As for karate, Xu Tianlong is not unfamiliar; he even practiced it for a period.
Xu Tianlong has not yet mastered this state; otherwise, this blow alone would be enough to fracture at least four of Zabuka's ribs! Xu Tianlong comes from a martial arts family, has practiced martial arts since childhood, but only this Eight Extremes Fist is what he has practiced since young.
And Xu Tianlong, rushing forward to collide with his fist, will be down under his punch in just 0.5 seconds!
Moreover, as they exchanged several probing attacks, Zabuka, believing he fully understood Xu Tianlong's strength, grew increasingly arrogant, even several times directly meeting Xu Tianlong's attacks head-on to repel them, each time deliberately targeting Xu Tianlong's injured right hand.
After all, the lethal power of Eight Extremes Fist is too strong; furthermore, Xu Tianlong in his youth was not a fuel-saving lamp, so his grandfather forbade him from practicing it.
Later, he enlisted in the military, free from familial elders' restraints, and picked up Eight Extremes Fist again.
Since age sixteen he had already achieved minor mastery; upon enlisting in his early twenties he resumed training, nearly ten years now—it's easy to imagine how high Xu Tianlong's attainment in Eight Extremes Fist is! This blow alone nearly took half of Zabuka's life!
Seeing Zabuka struck until he vomited blood and then collapsed straight down, the Gongnasong brothers panicked, almost immediately taking off the guns slung on their shoulders.
But before they could raise their guns to aim, all they heard was a 'bang' as the locked hatch behind them was blasted open! (End of chapter)
