Chapter 254: Elina's And Kira's Ulterior Motives.
Darc was moving the dagger inside Ichiro's shoulder, which made Ichiro grimace in pain, but his grey eyes got locked at Darc's crazy face.
Ichiro started grinning viciously and pushed his two fingers towards Darc's face!
Darc only heard a sound, but he didn't think it was anything dangerous, but then… His face turned into shock.
Ichiro pushed his two fingers inside Darc's eyesockets and started pushing them deeper inside Darc's skull!
''Where is that brain…'' Ichiro murmured while his two fingers were pushing through Darc's flesh.
''ARGHH!'' Darc finally screamed in agony, he quickly let go of his dagger and tried to forcefully remove Ichiro's hand, but his hand didn't even budge.
The spectators looked at the scene with mouths agape.
They have only one thought in their mind.
Where did all these crazy guys come from?!
Ichiro finally managed to free his other hand; he used it to grab the dagger and pull it away from his shoulder.
He changed the grip on the dagger and stabbed it through Darc's neck.
''UGH!'' Darc spat a mouthful of blood. There was a dagger going through his neck, but he still didn't show any signs of dying.
Ichiro slammed his foot deep inside Darc's torso, which sent him flying hundreds of meters away.
But, Darc also took his sword with him. The sword was still stuck on his torso, and another dagger stuck on his neck.
It seemed impossible to survive, but it didn't take long for Darc to stand up and start chasing after Ichiro, but this time his speed was much slower.
*Crack*
Ichiro cracked his knuckles and went into his fighting stance.
''Ugh!'' Darc was spitting mouthfuls of blood while running, and it didn't take long for his face to turn pale as a sheet.
Suddenly, he stopped running, and Darc's emotionless face started changing. Soon, his face turned into pain.
''Oww…'' Darc's voice also became ordinary, he touched at the sword going through his torso and the dagger, which was only an inch away from piercing through his windpipe, but it was still going through his flesh, making blood gush out without stopping.
''Owwieee!'' Darc fell down on his knees, ''It hurts! Fuck! But, why can't I see anything?!'' His tone was full of pain and despair.
Ichiro looked surprised to see Darc returning to his previous self. He started calmly walking towards Darc, who was about to die at any moment.
…
In the spectators' room.
Longel sighed and shook his head.
''What is happening?'' Rijun asked with a weird look on his face.
Everyone was also getting curious. Why did Darc suddenly become normal?
''Crazy nature thought that winning was impossible, that's why it surrendered.'' Longel said, he sighed and continued, ''It had happened many times when he was fighting against me, but this is the first time he actually surrendered against someone who is the same rank as he is.''
''Ichiro is also quite crazy.'' Mei said and giggled, ''No wonder he has balls to go against you, Ark.''
''Tsk.'' Arkenthym clicked his tongue, ''He is nothing.''
Elina looked at the screen with a small smile, but it was too early to celebrate.
Her gaze turned into one of the screens where an adorable young woman with a pixie haircut was walking in the corridors; no one in the room had noticed her for a quite long time…
Because there is some kind of invisible cover surrounding the screens where Kira pops up!
And no one noticed Elina's index finger glowing in white color as she controlled the invisible covers.
Everyone's attention was focused on Ichiro, which made Elina's and Kira's jobs much easier!
'Good job, disciple, you are a great distraction!' Elina shouted internally and had to hide the massive smile which was about to form on her face.
No one in the room noticed, but Kira was slowly climbing out of the window of the stadium!
…
Darc heard footsteps coming closer, but he only saw darkness.
''Who is there?!'' He screamed with his hoarse tone.
Ichiro didn't answer. Instead, he grabbed the hilt of the sword and pulled it away from Darc's torso.
''AAAAAAAAAAAAAGH!'' Darc screamed in extreme agony as the sword left his body.
''YOU BASTARD!'' He shouted and tried to stand up, but he felt his body turning cold and weaker with each passing second.
Ichiro looked at him, but then he stabbed through Darc's heart with his sword.
''Aahh…'' Darc's voice became quiet until finally, any signs of life disappeared.
Ichiro put the sword back on his sheath and looked at Darc's body which was a complete mess.
*Beep* *Beep*
*Beep* *Beep*

[Fighters Left: 65]
He looked at his smartwatch and looked where the red dot was currently, and for some reason, it wasn't moving. It wasn't even that far away from him, but then he found out a reason.
He perked up his ears as the sound of fighting rang in his ears.
Ichiro grabbed the dagger from Darth's neck and pulled it off. He strapped it on his waist and turned around to start running towards the noises.
But then… He saw something unimaginable from the corner of his eyes. One of the doors of one of the rooms was wide open, and he could see the window clearly.
Outside the window, he saw the young woman with a pixie haircut leaving the stadium, but no one seemed to notice it yet.
''Oho.'' Ichiro looked surprised, but he turned his head away and continued his run towards the noises.
It seems that there are few who have ulterior motives in this tournament, but that made Ichiro quite curious and excited to find out what the young woman was planning.
He looked at the smartwatch and made sure that the young woman didn't have the Power Limit Remover, it would make things very complicated, but she didn't seem to have it.
Instead, the red dot was currently moving away from its current position.
When Ichiro reached the place where the sound of fighting was heard, he saw a dead young man lying on the ground.
He looked almost unrecognizable, but Ichiro recognized his mohawk.
Ichiro shook his head and continued his chase.
But… He wasn't the only one who was chasing after Power Limit Remover, and soon the largest battle in the tournament was about to begin!
