The commentator announced Beastpunch’s merits: his record boasted 43 wins, 2 losses, and 33 early victories. Amidst the screams of the audience, he entered the cage. Then came Kaito’s introduction, his record pristine with 8 wins, 0 losses, and all 8 being early victories. He stepped into the arena wearing a new suit: tight and well-fitted, the whole ensemble covered in a durable black fabric adorned with numerous protective parts. Red plates shielded his legs and feet, sharp-angled and aggressively designed. Black plates blended seamlessly into the main fabric, protecting his stomach. White plates with red flecks guarded his torso and arms. His shoulders, ribs, chest, elbows, forearms, and hands were well protected. White plates covered his fingers.

The referee, standing in the center of the battlefield surrounded by an iron net, waved his hand downward to announce the start of the fight.

The two fighters, standing apart, locked eyes. Beastpunch’s face radiated self-confidence, a smile playing on his lips. Kaito, on the other hand, remained calm; there was no fear or mockery in his eyes.

As the fight commenced, they continued to stare each other down. Suddenly, Beastpunch’s body began to grow, his muscles swelling with size. Brown fur sprouted from various parts of his body, and his face took on a wilder, more feral shape. A lion’s tail appeared on his back, and his height surged to 2.2 meters.

With a calm and measured stride, Kaito walked towards his opponent.

The man looked at the boy with a puzzled look, “What’s the matter?”

Kaito looked incomprehensively into his eyes.

“If you don’t envelop your body with that red energy, you can’t win.”

Kaito stopped and replied, “Why didn’t you transform into your full form yourself?”

“Ha, this arena is too shitty for that.”

The boy’s irises turned red, “Then, don’t make excuses for not fighting at full strength.”

A creepy smile crept across the man’s face as he lunged toward the boy.

Kaito got into a fighting stance, his opponent launched an attack with a sweeping left side kick, Kaito ducked to the side of the punch. The opponent continued with a series of hand strikes, the speed of his strikes was incredible.

He dodged all the blows with his body and his enhanced reaction.

Anticipating a sidekick, Kaito ducked, stepped forward, and landed a powerful punch to his opponent’s body, his fist glowing with red energy. Immediately, he stepped behind the enemy’s leg and moved out of the attack zone.

The blow didn't do much damage, but Kaito hadn’t expected to take his opponent down with a single hit. He planned to deliver crisp and powerful strikes to key body parts during the first half of the match while analyzing his opponent’s movements and adapting to them.

Kaito stayed light on his feet, dodging punches and delivering sharp counterpunches to the body. Beastpunch struck again, aiming a jab at Kaito’s face. The boy ducked and swung at the body, but his opponent raised his leg, countering with a body kick. Using telekinesis, Kaito halted the swing with his hand and blocked the kick.

Kaito absorbed the blow, but the sheer force was evident from the expressions on the faces of the spectators. Stepping back, he felt a sharp pain in his arm.

Invincible moved in close to his opponent, and they started throwing punches at each other, Beastpunch worked first, launching a series of attacks. Kaito dodged and tried to throw punches, some he started blocking. When Beastpunch landed another arm strike, Kaito ducked, turned his body across his back, and landed a leg kick to his belly button, his leg glowing red.

After that, Kaito’s fighting style changed. He began to use leg kicks, mostly low-kicks. When Beast Boy took a step forward, Kaito landed a quick frontkick similar to hitting a stone wall. The man smiled and spread his arms out to the sides, ignoring Kaito’s efforts.

Kaito raised his left leg, mimicking a midkick, then jumped up and delivered a second blow to the head. The blow caused the Beastman to step back. Taking advantage of the moment, Kaito threw a kick to the head followed by a leg kick, both successful.

Kaito then jumped up performed a 360-degree spin and delivered another leg kick to Bispunch’s head, but his opponent dodged by pushing his body back. As soon as Kaito’s feet hit the ground, he delivered a kick to the shin, but the man raised his leg, dodging the blow.

The crowd erupted in joyous shouts.

Kaito threw a punch to the body, but his opponent caught it, yanking the boy toward him. With his other hand, he grabbed Kaito’s shoulder and slammed his forehead into Kaito’s with all his might. Despite Kaito releasing energy that stained his forehead red, his head snapped back, and his legs momentarily went limp.

Stolen from its rightful place, this narrative is not meant to be on Amazon; report any sightings.

Beastpunch then drove a knee into Kaito’s stomach, forcing him to bend perpendicular to the floor. Grabbing his arm with one hand and his shoulder with the other, the man lifted him off the ground and slammed him to the floor. Kaito landed hard on his back.

He raised his leg high over Kaito’s body and brought it down with incredible force, attempting to crush him like an elephant crushing a mouse. Kaito opened his eyes, saw the descending leg, and quickly rolled to the right, narrowly avoiding the blow. He got to his feet, his body still aching from the impact.

The predator advanced towards Kaito with a grin. He threw a powerful punch, but Kaito, surrounded by a halo of energy, dodged the blow. With a swift U-turn, Kaito kicked his opponent in the body, shattering his rock-like composure.

The boy stepped forward and threw a punch at Beast’s face, but he dodged and parried it with a sidekick. Invincible took the blow, grimacing at the force, but quickly recovered. He responded with two powerful side kicks to the body. Concentrating the energy in his arm, Kaito delivered an uppercut to the jaw. The Beast’s head snapped back, and he staggered back a few wide steps. Blood rushed from his mouth as he lowered his head.

Kaito lowered his arm briefly, his fingers trembling. But the fight wasn’t over. Decisively clenching his fist, he quickly made his way towards his opponent.

Beastpunch backed away from the net and met Kaito with a punch. But the boy, now fully enveloped in energy, dodged the blow and struck at his body again. The cumulative effect of the missed punches was becoming apparent; a mournful expression appeared on the Beastmaster’s face. However, Kaito relentlessly continued his attack, dodging punches without blinking, landing powerful punches to the body and face, interspersed with low-kicks.

Beastpunch retreated until his back was almost to the net. Kaito landed a hard kick to his face, throwing his head to the side, followed by a kick to the body. The man caught the boy’s leg and began to squeeze it with such force that the plate began to bend.

Kaito swung his free arm, throwing a punch, but Beastman quickly grabbed his throat with his other hand. The boy gasped, both hands wrapping around his opponent's wrist in a desperate attempt to break free.

“Son of a bitch,” Beastpunch growled irritably.

He lifted Kaito off the ground and took a couple of steps to the center of the ring, raising his arm high and slamming Kaito against the concrete floor. The impact knocked the air out of Kaito's lungs.

Pressing the boy to the floor, the Man grabbed the boy’s right arm by the forearm, wrapping it completely around him. And began to squeeze it. Still conscious, Kaito concentrated the energies in his hand, increasing the strength of his arm and the suit’s defenses. But Beastpunch’s arm began to enlarge, veins becoming more clearly visible, his arm covered with long fur. The plate began to sag inward, and then the bone began to crack.

Kaito, feeling the pain, didn’t make a sound, holding back everything within himself. When the man’s arm returned to its former state after shattering the bone, Kaito swung his leg and kicked his opponent in the crotch.

The man's face contorted with rage. He grabbed Kaito’s head, lifted him half a meter off the ground, and slammed him to the floor, forming a crack.

Rising to his feet, the man enjoyed the crowd’s shouts and cheers of “Beastpunch”. He looked around at the onlookers and then looked at the boy lying on the floor. Shifting his gaze to the leg that Kaito had kicked him with, he raised his leg vertically over Kaito’s shin and kicked with all his might. A crunch echoed within the confines of the net, and Kaito’s body went limp in agony.

As Kaito squirmed in pain, Beastpunch stepped aside and spread his arms wide, playing along with the cheering crowd.

“Fuck…” Anthony muttered, sitting back in his chair and watching the fight.

The guys beside him watched in silence, their faces reflecting the horror of an event they couldn’t change, silent witnesses.

The man returned to the lying Kaito, and grabbing him by the shoulders, lifted him up and held him above the vertical floor. Everyone in the room realized what was about to happen, the final kill. But suddenly Kaito spits blood into the man’s eyes. The boy’s body starts to release a huge amount of red energy, he grabs him by the head, and using his telekinesis, kicks him in the face with his knee.

The man's hands let go of Kaito and landed on his feet, and to the audience's surprise, he was standing normally. The bone in his leg was still broken, but he was able to hold himself up thanks to his second quirk.

At an incredible pace, with the cold face of a predator, Kaito began throwing a series of punches. The sounds of his blows echoed clearly to the spectators standing near the cage. Beastpunch attempted a sweeping sidekick, but Kaito deftly ducked and landed a crisp punch to his chin, followed by three more rapid strikes.

His legs buckled, and he fell onto his back. Kaito quickly leaped on top of him, sitting on his chest, and began hammering through a tight guard. He could feel his enemy’s body changing, growing in size, and becoming enveloped in thick fur. Kaito raised his arm, concentrating as much energy as he could. He didn’t care if the blow broke his arm; he had to finish this quickly.

Suddenly, Kaito felt something wrap around him and lift him sharply off Beastpunch. He looked down and saw a massive, muscular lion’s tail, strong enough to lift him effortlessly.

Beastpunch, holding Kaito in the air with his tail, rose to his feet. His hands covered his face, but Kaito saw the serious damage he had inflicted. The fur on his face was dyed red, a hematoma was visible on his forehead, and blood flowed from his mouth.

Kaito wrapped his hands around his tail trying to repeat the man’s trick and crush the bone. But it was too late, the man delivered a swinging blow to the boy's face, who reflexively made a block, completely covered by the quirk.

The sound of the impact echoed around the arena and reached the ears of almost everyone present. If Kaito hadn’t strengthened his body so significantly, he might have been killed. And if Beast hadn’t held the boy back, he would have been thrown outside the cage.

When the boy was already incapacitated, he grabbed his head. Releasing his tail, he ostentatiously displayed Kaito’s body to the enthusiastic onlookers, then forcefully slammed his head into the floor. Dust flew up, and numerous cracks spread out from the impact, even forming a small crevice. Blood flowed from Kaito’s head.

A loud voice came from the speakers, “What an incredible fight and what a relentless attitude towards his opponent. The winner of this knockout fight is…. Be-astpu-unch.”
