I Am Not Great Cook

Honestly, although Mutou Judai felt it didn't need to be as exaggerated as in movies, he also felt that after this incident, Totsuki really needed to improve their security awareness and find some bodyguards for Erina.

There were times when Erina would be without bodyguards.

Like in the original work when she encountered the protagonist at school and Totsuki Resort, like when she was clearly valued highly by her father but could still be rescued and hidden by just Alice, or like when she followed him in being expelled...

Erina sometimes had bodyguards, but more often there wasn't even one bodyguard around her.

This might stem from the Nakiri family's education.

Because before Erina, most of the Nakiri family wouldn't attend Totsuki but needed to venture out on their own—going out to make their own way with a team of bodyguards definitely wouldn't work.

This gradually extended to Erina as well.

That's why today's situation occurred.

Mutou Judai was thinking about such things while looking at Meguro Masaki, while Meguro Masaki kept muttering words like 'kill' and 'death', then with a crazy smile on his face, his breathing became increasingly rapid.

Like this, he stepped toward Mutou Judai, getting closer and closer.

"What are you doing—"

In such a situation, countless lights suddenly shone from all directions of the courtyard, and then Totsuki's security personnel finally broke free from Toyo Electric's constraints and discovered everything in the courtyard.

Thinking about it, this was understandable.

After all, Mutou Judai's kick just now had made quite a commotion.

These Totsuki security forces weren't eliminated but were being held back, their attention drawn elsewhere, so naturally they noticed this side now.

When they surrounded the area and saw the situation, their hearts sank.

Mutou Judai was blocking in front of Erina, Alice, and Hisako—this side looked fine, the problem was on the other side...

Seeing Meguro Masaki covered in blood on his body, hands, and face, Dojima Gin's gaze instantly became sharp.

"Chef Dojima..."

After seeing Dojima Gin, Erina bit her lips and ran over.

She was actually quite scared now, and her legs were still somewhat weak.

But Alice and Hisako were in similar states.

So at this time, she took the initiative to step forward and explain the situation here to Dojima Gin.

As Erina explained, Dojima Gin's expression grew uglier the more he listened.

He recognized that blood-covered guy—that was the fighter Toyo Electric had sent this time... Moreover, his attention had been diverted earlier mainly because Toyama Hirataka from Toyo Electric had been conducting second-round talks with him, then he discovered someone had invaded Totsuki Resort, and finally when he was mobilizing personnel, he found that all of Totsuki Resort's fighters were dead...

One thing after another kept him extremely busy.

If at this time Erina and Alice had died at Totsuki Resort all at once...

This consequence was something Dojima Gin couldn't bear at all and couldn't possibly take responsibility for.

That's why Dojima Gin's expression kept getting worse.

Then his gaze toward Mutou Judai became increasingly grateful.

But now wasn't a good time to thank him...

"Toyama-san... don't you think you need to explain the situation here?"

Dojima Gin's voice carried anger.

You really couldn't deny it—when he was angry, his intimidation was quite strong.

Hearing his voice, without looking at him, Mutou Judai thought DIO was speaking—after all, they had the same voice actor...

At this time, Toyama Hirataka slowly walked out from behind him.

"Let's leave explanations for later—as for now, anyway we've already decided to have Kengan earlier, and your Totsuki Resort doesn't have any more fighters, right? In that case, why not let this battle continue as the Kengan between us..."

He said this, then focused his gaze on Mutou Judai.

He had an impression of Mutou Judai.

The Tiger who had taken down that super rookie Himuro Ryo with one punch!

For him, it didn't matter if this side's Kengan was lost. Meguro mainly served to attract attention—he was meant to be abandoned here from the beginning.

So if he could take this opportunity to see Mutou Judai's specific strength, that would be great.

After all, although Meguro was crazy—he was also strong.

Hearing Toyama Hirataka's proposal, Meguro temporarily stopped.

Although he desperately wanted to kill Mutou Judai, he would still listen a bit to what people from Toyo Electric said, well, just a bit—

Dojima Gin frowned.

"That young man isn't our Totsuki's fighter... but a guest of our Totsuki. No matter what, having a guest fight in Kengan matches isn't appropriate."

Hearing Dojima Gin say this, Mutou Judai didn't say anything to their side but continued staring at Meguro Masaki.

Meguro Masaki was also staring at Mutou Judai.

Then he saw that Mutou Judai seemed to be muttering something.

Mutou Judai had his eyes half-open, his expression extremely mocking, then with a half-smile, although he made no sound, his mouth movements were slow and what he was saying was simple, so even Meguro could understand what he was saying after watching for a while...

'Trash'

'Waste'

'Bastard'

Mutou Judai stared at him, repeatedly muttering such words to him.

After understanding, Meguro Masaki's eyes grew wider and wider.

He wasn't normal to begin with.

He was born with murderous impulses, felt instinctive pleasure from killing, and also felt pleasure from being beaten—pain couldn't suppress him.

Even in Kengan, this kind of underground fighting where someone like him would probably fight until one of them died was among the rare few.

So after understanding what Mutou Judai was saying, his breathing became more rapid and the smile on his face became more obvious.

Finally...

While Toyama Hirataka was still talking with Dojima Gin, Meguro Masaki suddenly spoke in a voice everyone could hear—

"Kill you..."

"I'll kill you in a more spectacular way than I killed father!"

With such a shout, when others looked over, Meguro Masaki had already stepped forward with one foot and instantly closed the already short distance between him and Mutou Judai. His left hand grabbed the clothes at Mutou Judai's wrist, while his right hand grabbed the clothes at Mutou Judai's collar.

Then he suddenly raised his arm strength and pulled Mutou Judai toward himself in an upward arc.

Seeing this move, with Jack Hanma's knowledge, Mutou Judai roughly understood what type of fighting technique this guy used.

—After all, this approach was too classic.

Then he also smiled.

Because at the first moment Meguro made his move, Toyama Hirataka from the distance loudly shouted—Kengan begins!

Dojima Gin couldn't refuse at this point even if he wanted to.

But all of this was exactly what Mutou Judai wanted.

Because if he remembered correctly...

In Kengan matches—

'Accidental' killings were also fine, right?
