Watching the approaching Fujino Katsuyuki, Xiao Tian faintly smiled, silently reciting the Heart Method Mantra of Iron Chain Cross River. Instantly, he felt an extremely violent force gather within his body.

This formidable power left Xiao Tian startled and somewhat uneasy. For the Xiao Tian of before had never experienced such a feeling.

"Could it be that after my genetic modification, the Iron Chain Cross River I’ve been cultivating has also become stronger?"

As Xiao Tian pondered, Fujino Katsuyuki already attacked, his enormous claw tearing through the air, sweeping towards Xiao Tian with brutality. Wherever it passed, the stench of blood wafted freely.

Boom!

The bloodied hand instantly lunged, wildly flailing mid-air. Blood-red traces spread continually in front of Xiao Tian.

At this moment, Fujino Katsuyuki’s speed had reached its peak, leaving behind only a blur of bloody shadow where he passed.

Fujino Katsuyuki closed in, his giant bloodied hand stabbing aggressively at Xiao Tian’s head. Xiao Tian dodged left and right, the bloodied hand piercing massive holes into the stone wall beside him, its terrifying force astounding all who observed.

"It seems the Mizuno Clan was involved in biochemical research from early on," thought Xiao Tian with a cold smile as he dodged, observing Fujino Katsuyuki’s arms that were no longer human.

Whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh!

The sound of breaking wind echoed as the two quickly clashed around each other. Xiao Tian’s hand moved with great speed, shadows of his blades clashing as he barely managed to fend off Fujino Katsuyuki’s claws, which were no longer human. The "ping pong" sounds erupted as Xiao Tian was forced backward by the overwhelming force.

Seeing Xiao Tian being relentlessly suppressed by himself, a smile appeared on Fujino Katsuyuki’s face.

However, as time passed, Fujino Katsuyuki’s smile slowly disappeared, for he made a surprising discovery. Despite appearing suppressed, Xiao Tian’s speed was in no way inferior to his! Every one of his thousands of attacks had been evaded by Xiao Tian.

What unsettled Fujino Katsuyuki even more was the rapid surge of power within Xiao Tian’s body!

"This kid is peculiar, seems to be preparing something. I must finish this quickly!" Fujino Katsuyuki thought warily.

After a round of attacks, Fujino Katsuyuki concealed his true intent. With the next punch, he suddenly sneered, unleashing an unprecedented force. Xiao Tian was cornered with no room to evade and had no choice but to face it head-on.

The outcome of this battle would soon be determined.

Having witnessed Xiao Tian’s resilience, Fujino Katsuyuki pooled all his strength into this punch, aiming to eliminate Xiao Tian without reservation.

Just as Fujino Katsuyuki’s final strike was about to land, Xiao Tian’s expression abruptly turned cold. He had been gathering power within his body from the start, circulating the Iron Chain Cross River Heart Method countless times. Now, finally prepared, all his power was unleashed in an instant.

Feeling the waves of power within Xiao Tian, Fujino Katsuyuki furrowed his brow, deeply uneasy. Yet, since he had already thrown his punch, there was no turning back. Fujino Katsuyuki’s speed increased yet again.

"Fujino Katsuyuki, you still underestimate me!" Xiao Tian stretched out his hand with a cold tone.

Then, Xiao Tian’s hands moved rapidly, all his power gathering in his hands. Leaping forward, he fixed his gaze on Fujino Katsuyuki, fists clenched, with an extremely violent force surging between his knuckles.

This time, Xiao Tian did not evade. In everyone’s eyes, his punch sliced through the air with a powerful gale, fury-driven, aiming straight at Fujino Katsuyuki’s bloodied hand!

Xiao Tian’s punch seemed insignificant against the bloodied hand, yet it held the strength of an egg striking a stone!

Boom!

Two mismatched fists collided like a comet hitting the earth, resulting in a tremendous noise. Their collision unleashed a mighty shockwave, even causing the surrounding sea to ripple with rising waves.

The scene was now eerily silent, except for the howling wind around.

Xiao Tian’s fist was surrounded by gales, creating a powerful airflow, drilling fiercely into the bloodied hand Fujino Katsuyuki prided himself on.

Xiao Tian’s gaze grew colder as the cyclonic force spun rapidly.

Whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh!

Driven by this enormous force, Fujino Katsuyuki’s complexion turned increasingly pale, cold sweat seeping through his skin.

"What is with this kid?? Even my Blood Corpse Fist can’t match him??" Fujino Katsuyuki’s heart chilled, howling in dismay within.

Xiao Tian’s gaze became frostier, and Fujino Katsuyuki’s massive bloodied hand could no longer withstand Xiao Tian’s punch. It trembled violently.

Crack!

To everyone’s shock, Xiao Tian’s punch directly pierced through Fujino Katsuyuki’s bloodied hand, breaking a hole and striking Fujino Katsuyuki’s chest.

"Puh!"

The massive bloodied hand, after being penetrated by Xiao Tian, instantly deflated like a burst balloon, quickly shrinking back to the size of a regular hand. And at this moment, Fujino Katsuyuki’s aura sharply declined.

The Blood Corpse Fist was Fujino Katsuyuki’s final trump card. Now, drained of energy, Fujino Katsuyuki lay on the beach, unable even to stand, his hand bearing a large gash. Blood flowed unchecked.

"Xiao Tian, even though you can defeat our Japanese Samurai Dao, hmph, you are still no match for [those people]! Sooner or later, all of your relatives, including you, will be killed by them!! All killed!!"

Fujino Katsuyuki’s tone carried both anger and unwillingness. Having been invincible all his life, he didn’t expect to fall to a Huaxia person.

"Before that, you die first!" For Fujino Katsuyuki, who had persecuted him countless times, Xiao Tian showed no mercy. Taking out a dagger, he strode step by step towards Fujino Katsuyuki, under whose eyes the dagger gleamed coldly.

"Kid, you dare???!" Fujino Katsuyuki bellowed upon seeing Xiao Tian’s murderous intent.

Xiao Tian’s steps remained unchanged. One step after another, crunching on the sand, each sound distinctly clear.

"Xiao Tian... no, Grandpa... I was wrong!! I shouldn’t have opposed you!! If you spare me, I’m willing to offer all my assets from the Mizuno Clan!!"

The fear of death in people always surpasses all else. Seeing Xiao Tian’s murderous intent, Fujino Katsuyuki scrambled, struggling on the sand. At this moment, Fujino Katsuyuki was no longer an Aikido master, knowing only to beg for his life.

"No... no!!!! Ah!" Fujino Katsuyuki shrieked in fear, his voice changing drastically.

Yet Xiao Tian acted as if he hadn’t heard anything, suddenly darting in front of Fujino Katsuyuki. The dagger in his hand stabbed directly into Fujino Katsuyuki’s chest. A splash of blood bloomed at Fujino Katsuyuki’s chest, quickly covering his entire body.

Fujino Katsuyuki, deceased.
