Salute To The General

"Sure!" Leopold replied before clenching his fists and starting to exert force using his upper body.

Boom!

The explosive force that was generated from the expansion of the man's muscles ripped his shirt apart, tearing it into shreds.

Numerous intersecting scars could be seen on Leopold's muscular upper body as it was exposed.

Even though the eyebrows and sideburns of the tall-built general had already greyed, his body was still as strong as steel.

At that moment, the topless man, who was dressed in combat trousers and wearing a pair of black combat boots, looked exceptionally intimidating. He had a domineering aura surrounding him like he was ready to kill.

Gammon, Sofie and the rest had their eyes fixated on the screen with bated breath.

Everyone felt a rush of excitement and could not wait for the battle to unfold.

To the people of Remdik, Leopold, the strongest fighter in the country, was like a God on the battlefield.

With dark energy surrounding him, Leopold beckoned Nathan with his finger and said with a sneer, "Chief Cross, let's fight."

"All right!"

Not bothering to be polite, Nathan stepped forward and swung out a punch.

Leopold's eyes lit up. Instead of hiding, he responded to Nathan's attack with a punch as well.

Bam!

The two men's fists collided with a force that was as great as a comet crashing into Earth. A booming sound rang out as the blast waves distorted the surrounding air.

Gammon and the others gaped in shock, staring at the twisted images through the screen.

It was horrifying how strong the two men were.

They were basically nuclear weapons in human form!

Shockingly, both men's punches were equally powerful.

A cold glint flashed across Leopold's eye as he felt dissatisfied with the outcome of their attacks.

The next moment, he raised his fist and aimed it at his opponent.

This time, his movements were faster and more explosive.

Staying calm, Nathan lifted his arm and threw a punch back in response.

Bam!

Another giant explosion rang out.

Similar to the previous time, both parties were still equally matched However, right after swinging out his punch, Leopold started launching a flurry of offensive attacks against Nathan.

Undaunted, Nathan not only managed to hold up against Leopold's continuous attacks; at the same time, he had also launched a kick toward Leopold, hitting the man's chest.

Needless to say, Nathan's kick was extremely explosive.

Even a fighter as strong as Leopold was thrown over thirty feet backward at the impact of the kick. With a loud thud, the general landed heavily on the ground as clouds of dust wafted in the air.

Gammon and the rest who were watching the match through the screen were utterly dumbfounded. Everyone was holding their breaths, their hearts racing wildly.

Colin and the Elite Eight were watching the match anxiously as well, instinctively clenching their fists.

Every spectator had different expressions on their faces as they watched Leopold crashing into the ground as a result of Nathan's kick, wondering if the general had lost.

Just when everyone was still processing their shock, Leopold had already stood up, regaining his composure.

Other than a distinct mark of a footprint, there was no visible injury on his chest.

With his eyes turning increasingly cold, the general dusted his chest and said to Nathan in an intimidating voice, “Our battle has just started."

Right after he finished speaking, the man bent his knees slightly, getting into his fighting stance.

Nathan was slightly shocked. He was aware of the power of his kick earlier on, which was forceful enough to knock down even the sturdiest rhinoceros.

However, after receiving his kick, not only did Leopold seem unaffected, he was even able to retaliate. He is rather terrifying!

"Ha!"

Taking a deep breath and grunting heavily, Leopold gathered all of his strength as veins popped out in his neck and forehead.

Boom!

As a loud sound resonated through the arena, Leopold lunged forward at Nathan at break-neck speed.

At the same time, he raised his hand and hurled a punch toward Nathan.

Nathan raised his hands as well, defending himself against the general's attack.

Bam!

Nathan's body sank after receiving Leopold's punch.

It turned out that the attack had caused Nathan's feet to sink into the solid ground, resulting in him appearing shorter. Without holding back, Leopold attacked aggressively, launching a series of punches, kicks and elbow strikes toward his opponent. Even though Nathan managed to block those attacks, he was still being forced backward.
