Niko Style: Ultimate Technique-Possessing Spirit.
This move did not belong to the original Niko Style of Ohma Tokita's master, Niko Tokita.
Rather, it was a technique taught to Ohma by another man who also called himself Niko Tokita.
It was created specifically to counter the Kure Clan's Release-also known as Removal.
The principle was simple.
Unscientific.
By forcibly accelerating the heartbeat, the body was pushed into an enhanced state.
After activating this move, Ohma's strength, speed, and durability rose sharply. Even injuries he had already sustained could be temporarily suppressed.
But the drawbacks were severe.
The precision of his techniques dropped.
His mental state became unstable.
And more importantly-
The burden placed on the body was far beyond what a normal person could endure.
This move placed an enormous load on the heart.
The price of using it-
Was a shortened lifespan.
But Ohma didn't care.
Lifespan.
Years.
Decades.
None of it mattered.
If he couldn't defeat the opponent standing in front of him, then proving the Niko Style was the strongest was meaningless.
So-
After activating Possessing Spirit, even though Ohma Tokita could now partially control it after regaining his memories, a smile still crept onto his face uncontrollably.
Veins bulged across his body.
His breathing changed.
His tone changed.
Even his personality shifted.
The current Ohma was more aggressive.
More dominant.
"Do you really think you can beat me like this?"
He stomped the ground hard.
"Hurry up and get serious!"
-Niko Style: Flame Kata: Blazing Fire!
The force exploded.
Ohma's body shot forward like a loaded bullet.
While charging, he swung his right arm in a wide arc. At the instant he reached Jaden, he used the Redirection Kata to control the propulsion force of Blazing Fire, twisting that straight-line momentum upward along his fist.
A heavy, violent uppercut surged toward Jaden's jaw.
This was Ohma's effort.
In theory, Possessing Spirit should prevent precise use of the Niko Style.
But after regaining his memories, Ohma could now forcibly combine them.
The cost-
Was an even greater burden on his body.
Jaden listened to Ohma's roar.
His expression didn't change.
He activated Iron Mass.
Clenched his fist.
And smashed his raised fist straight down onto Ohma's uppercut.
BOOM-
The fists collided.
Ohma did not engage in a raw power contest.
The moment his attack was interrupted, he sank his body and darted behind Jaden in one fluid motion.
His fist struck again.
-Niko Style: Adamantine Kata: Iron Breaker!
Jaden turned around calmly.
Poker-faced.
And met Ohma's fist head-on again.
For an instant-
The sound of impacts rang out repeatedly.
Like a machine gun firing.
The movements were too fast for most Kengan Association members to see clearly, but the continuous collision sounds alone were enough to ignite the crowd.
"Are those really movements humans can make?!"
"The human body is terrifying!"
Inside the arena, neither fighter paid attention.
Ohma attacked relentlessly.
Jaden responded just as relentlessly.
Unknowingly, Ohma's fists were already swollen and red.
Yet he kept pushing forward, switching between offense and defense with the Niko Style, forcing what looked like a back-and-forth exchange.
But anyone with eyes could tell.
Ohma couldn't last much longer.
And Jaden-
Wasn't serious.
Not at all.
Because while blocking and clashing, Jaden was thinking about what Ohma had just shouted.
To be honest-
He didn't understand.
If Ohma carried some deep hatred.
If he needed to win this tournament at all costs.
If his life depended on victory here-
Jaden could understand that.
But Ohma Tokita didn't have that kind of reason.
Proving the Niko Style was the strongest-
Was that really worth throwing away his life?
Why not retreat?
Get stronger?
Challenge again later?
Jaden couldn't understand it.
The opponent's heart rate was abnormal.
His blood flow was violent.
This state couldn't last.
And if the fight dragged on, Ohma's condition would only worsen.
Risking everything just to prove strength...
Jaden felt the conviction behind Ohma's punches.
He saw the unwavering resolve in his eyes.
But what he couldn't understand-
He couldn't force himself to understand.
And that irritation began to surface.
At that moment-
Ohma's condition deteriorated.
An opening appeared.
Jaden seized it instantly.
Tuoli.
Baku Shin.
Iron Mass-Heavy Wolf Step.
The same punch as before.
This time, it slammed directly into Ohma's less-defended left shoulder from the front.
-Let's end it.
That was Jaden's thought.
If it landed cleanly, Ohma would either be knocked unconscious or left standing with a useless left arm.
One follow-up kick.
The fight would be over.
That was Jaden's calculation.
But-
The moment Ohma saw the punch coming-
He laughed inside.
Because-
-It was intentional.
At that instant, Ohma released Possessing Spirit.
His pupils contracted.
His focus sharpened to an extreme.
-Niko Style: Ultimate Technique-Fallen Demon!
The world slowed.
Everything entered bullet time.
Jaden's punch looked unbearably slow.
Ohma adjusted his breathing.
Focused.
Waited.
Prepared.
Until the exact instant Jaden's fist touched his body-
His eyes widened.
Four Katas united.
-Niko Style: Ultimate Technique-Onigami (Demon God)!
Possessing Spirit and Fallen Demon were taught by the later Niko.
But Onigami-
Was taught by the Niko Tokita Ohma truly recognized.
It wasn't flashy.
It had no fixed form.
It was a counter technique.
Redirection.
Flame.
Adamantine.
Water.
All combined.
The opponent's force flowed through the user's body, was amplified, and returned.
Because the counter occurred in the gap where the opponent's old force had just ended and new force hadn't yet formed-
It was nearly impossible to dodge.
And-
Even Jaden couldn't withstand his own power.
Even Ohma, with limited education, remembered Niko telling him about the strongest spear and the strongest shield.
When they collide-
Mutual destruction.
Ohma let Jaden's terrifying force flow through his body.
Puff.
Blood burst from his mouth.
From his nose.
From his ears.
From the corners of his eyes.
Even with Fallen Demon.
Even with preparation.
His internal organs were damaged.
Possibly beyond repair.
But he grinned.
Onigami alone would only result in mutual destruction.
So-
-Niko Style: Ultimate Technique-Possessing Spirit!
Ohma forced it again.
His life shortened further.
Ten years.
Maybe more.
But-
It didn't matter.
-Because I'm going to win.
He transferred Jaden's force from his left shoulder into his right hand.
And punched straight into Jaden's heart.
Onigami.
Possessing Spirit.
Jaden's own monstrous power.
A vital point.
The result-
Even with Iron Mass, Jaden was sent flying.
Ohma dropped to one knee.
Blood-soaked.
Possessing Spirit faded.
He smiled slowly.
As expected.
A punch that cost ten years of life-
I won.
Then-
Jaden stood up.
Immediately.
He looked at his chest.
Slightly red.
He rubbed it.
"That hurt."
"That one actually worked."
He stretched lightly.
And walked toward Ohma again.
Iron Mass had been active.
So it wasn't a vital point.
If it had hit his jaw, he might have needed to lie down.
If it had hit his chest without Iron Mass-
It would have taken minutes to recover.
Ohma didn't know that.
He only saw-
A man who took a punch worth ten years of his life.
And stood up like nothing happened.
Ah.
This...
-Give me back my lifespan!
For a split second, Ohma wanted to forfeit.
But he clenched his fists again.
"Jaden."
"You're truly strong."
"So if it's to defeat you-"
"I don't care how reckless I have to be!"
One Onigami wasn't enough.
Then he'd go all out.
"I must prove it here!"
"That the Niko Style is the strongest!"
"So watch closely!"
"This is the Niko Style!"
Jaden frowned slightly.
He stopped advancing.
He hadn't fully grasped Onigami's principle yet.
Rushing in would be unwise.
-I'll finish this with Rankyaku.
He shifted his stance.
Prepared.
Meanwhile-
Ohma chose the most desperate option.
Full-power Possessing Spirit.
Simultaneously activating Fallen Demon.
Forcing the Niko Style under impossible conditions.
He was ready to die.
He lowered his center of gravity.
And shouted with everything he had.
"Jaden!"
"This is my full power!"
Then-
Possessing Spirit surged.
And-
Nothing.
From Jaden's perspective-
Ohma shouted.
Then collapsed.
Just fell.
Jaden froze.
His first thought wasn't victory.
It was-
Is this some trick?
But Ohma didn't move.
His breathing stabilized.
Jaden frowned.
He signaled the medical team.
After examination-
The conclusion was clear.
Ohma Tokita had suffered a sudden medical crisis.
The exact cause couldn't be determined.
But he was unconscious.
Only then did Jaden realize.
The Unknown Heart Disease curse-
Had activated.
Triggered by Ohma's own actions.
He had given himself a heart attack.
Jaden looked at Ohma.
Expression subtle.
After the match, he was definitely getting the video.
Editing the final part.
And showing it to Ohma when he woke up.
As he walked toward the tunnel, Erina watched him.
Jaden pressed his lips together.
"He passed out on his own..."
Behind him, Sayaka Katahara finally announced the result.
"The match is over!"
"The winner is-"
"Demon Spear-Jaden Yuki!"
