Kaijin Fighter: So I Have to Make Monsters, So What?

Chapter 601: Against the odds and information...

Zhen Yue’s underground tactics

’Well then...I hope Xiao Liu doesn’t mind me using a page from his book of tricks...yeesh, how does he manage to maintain this many signatures at once?’

~~~~~~~~~~

"Alright, where the fuck did she go?," Sun Yang muttered to himself as he kept

"WHAT THE FUCK IS CARDIO?!"

In reality, Zhen Feng wasn’t resisting Niu Bao through brute strength alone. In fact, he was making use of incredibly solid footholds to lock his feet in place and effectively make it so that Niu Bao wasn’t just pushing against himself, but the ground itself.

Now, how did Zhen Feng get access to some footholds in wetlands where the water was up to his ankles?

Simple, he froze his own feet in place, right below the waterline so that Niu Bao wouldn’t be able to see it.

’Okay, looks like I can resist him for now thanks to my ice lock trick...BUT HOLY SHIT THIS HURTS! I THOUGHT BEING FAT WAS SUPPOSED TO HELP DEAL WITH THE COLD!’

At some point during his struggle with Niu Bao, Zhen Feng remembered how Zhen Liu’s ice puppet thing was able to soundly trounce his ass without moving a single inch.

The only time the ice puppet actually did move however was when Zhen Feng made some distance and tried to use a charging attack to push it out of the arena, only for the ice puppet to lightly blast the floor in front of it with a thin layer of ice and side-stepping. The result was that Zhen Feng was launched out of the arena as he couldn’t course correct in time, and ended up face planting.

The moment was painful and slightly humiliating, but it was also a brilliant learning opportunity.

As a result of remembering all of this, Zhen Feng suddenly found himself able to employ ice aether in a manner similar to Zhen Liu’s ice puppet and in a strange manner similar to how Zhen Hai was able to channel lightning aether.

There was probably some grand secret behind how he was able to do this now, but right now he had a fight to win, and a muscle-head to send flying.

"HEY, MEATHEAD!"

"HUH?!"

"WHY DON’T YOU TRY A RUNNING START?! MAYBE IT’LL ACTUALLY DO SOMETHING!"

"THAT’S-! Wait..."

As soon as Zhen Feng made this suggestions, Niu Bao audibly and visibly paused in thought about the idea for a solid minute, before suddenly smiling.

"A RUNNING START IS PRECISELY WHAT I NEED! HAHA!"

Taking Zhen Feng’s suggestion to heart, Niu Bao disengaged from the wrestling match and leaped several dozen feet away from Zhen Feng. This not only gave himself breathing room, but also gave Zhen Feng a chance to dispel the ice, that was locking his feet in place.

He had other places for that ice to be after all.

’Not yet...’

"NOW THEN, GET READY!," Niu Bao shouted as he began to circulate his aether throughout his body.

While this was happening, Zhen Feng began to circulate his own aether through his feet and into the water below

’Not yet...’

As Niu Bao continued to circulate his aether, steam began to radiate off of his body while his hands, feet and biceps noticeably bulked.

Zhen Feng on the other hand, kept a cool head and visualized his next series of moves.

’Not yet...’

"GET READY, BOY! FOR REAL LOUD FINISH!," Niu Bao shouted as his aether spiked to his absolute limit.

’Yeah...I’m more than ready,’ Zhen Feng quietly retorted.

[Bronze Demon Ape’s Rage!]

Niu Bao launched himself towards Zhen Feng, charging at a breakneck speed, with his knuckles at the ready to punch the chubby boy’s head clean off.

(Un)fortunately, the muscle head of a gorilla failed to notice that the water his feet were traversing at this very moment was suddenly a lot colder.

"YOU’RE FINISHED!"

"Nope, but you’re about to go for a ride!"

"WHA-WHOA?"

Moments Niu Bao could reach Zhen Feng, the latter had made use of his ice aether to send the former sliding about via the creation of an ice spot directly in the path of the charge.

However, he wasn’t done yet.

While Niu Bao was in the process of tripping and was just about to faceplant into the water, Zhen Feng smacked the man across the face with one hand while simultaneously creating an ice path with the other.

Niu Bao was promptly knocked into the path, and with the same momentum in which he charged towards Zhen Feng, was sent sliding onto a path that looped around and launched him into the air.

But it wasn’t a straight shot upward, instead, Niu Bao was launched several dozen feet back towards his starting point and even beyond that.

The whole time Niu Bao was sailing through the air though, Zhen Feng was chasing after him the whole time while charging up his own aether art.

One that caused the obvious form of a giant boar made of energy and mud to form around him. Unusually though, there was also a pair of huge tusks made of ice.

"HEY JACKASS! YOU SAID I HAD A STRONG SPINE, RIGHT?! WELL GET READY TO HAVE YOURS BE PULVERIZED!"

[Avalanche Boar Rush!]
