Chapter 945: Kotaro is KO'd Again

One week later…

"okay!"

Higashi Kotaro bumped his gloved hands against each other and stared at the figure in front of him with a serious look.

At this moment, Higashi Kotaro was standing on the boxing ring, competing with an apprentice in the boxing gym.

Logically speaking, Higashi Kotaro shouldn't have entered the ring so soon. After all, he had not received any formal boxing training at this point, and the boxing skills he had mastered were all discovered by himself through various channels.

However, Higashi Kotaro couldn't help wanting to confirm his own level of strength. The reason was that he fell too quickly at the hands of Gu Chen, which led to today's boxing match.

Below the ring, Gu Chen stood with his arms folded across his chest, and next to him was Shiratori Kenichi, who had followed him over after hearing that Higashi Kotaro was coming to the gym to train.

In addition to that, there is Taro who is in a virtual state and no one can see him except Gu Chen and Dong Kotaro.

Ding Ding Ding!

As the bell rang to signal the start of the match, Higashi Kotaro and the boxing gym apprentice gave each other a symbolic friendly fist bump, and then began to attack impatiently.

Judging from the way he punches, Higashi Kotaro does have some basic skills in this area, but his current boxing style is too rough, and he is just punching randomly relying on his strength.

On the other hand, the apprentice in the boxing gym who was competing with him first chose to be on the defensive when facing Higashi Kotaro's attack, blocking with his arms and moving flexibly with his feet, while observing Higashi Kotaro's boxing moves.

So when viewed from above, it looked like Higashi Kotaro was suppressing the apprentices in the boxing gym, which made Shiratori Kenichi below the ring very excited.

But Gu Chen could see that it wouldn't be long before Dong Kotaro was defeated.

As expected, when the apprentices in the boxing gym saw clearly Dong Kotaro's boxing style, they immediately began to fight back.

Unlike Higashi Kotaro who wanted to use all his strength in every punch in an effort to knock out his opponent with one blow, the fist of the apprentice in the boxing gym was a mixture of real and fake. It looked like a heavy punch, but when Higashi Kotaro raised his hand to block it, he found that the fist was very light.

But the inexperienced Tokotaro didn't dare not block it. What if the opponent's punch was a heavy one, wouldn't he be the one to be knocked out?

"hateful……"

Thinking of this, Higashi Kotaro began to block and dodge, and occasionally punched back.

However, as time went on, Tokotaro, who did not know how to conserve his energy, gradually felt overwhelmed, which made Kenichi Shiratori, who was sitting in the ring, very worried.

"It's time to finish."

Seeing this, Gu Chen thought to himself.

Sure enough, in the next second, the apprentice in the boxing gym suddenly burst out with a left hook that landed heavily on Higashi Kotaro's face, knocking him directly to the ring.

The referee saw this and immediately rushed forward to separate the two people on the ring, and shouted in coordination with the movements in his hands: "Stop, stop."

ding ding ding...

The bell rang, announcing the end of the competition, and the winner and loser were clear at a glance.

"It's not over yet."

However, after being knocked to the ground, Higashi Kotaro was still unwilling to accept the defeat and was thinking about getting up and having another fight with the apprentices in the boxing gym.

But before he could stand up completely, Shiratori Kenichi had already rushed onto the ring, shouting, "Kotaro-nii."

"Okay, Kotaro, can't you see that he's already gone easy on you?"

At this time, Gu Chen also walked onto the stage and stopped Dong Guangtaro from showing off.

"Senior, long time no see."

When the apprentice in the boxing gym saw Gu Chen coming up, he immediately bowed to him.

"Long time no see. It looks like you're not far from officially playing in the game, right?"

Gu Chen patted the boxing gym apprentice on the shoulder encouragingly and greeted him.

"Thanks to you, but the coach said I need to practice for a while longer."

The boxing gym apprentice smiled shyly.

"Did you hear that, Kotaro? Even at his level he still needs more practice. It's time for you to settle down and receive training, right?"

Hearing this, Gu Chen turned his gaze to Dong Guangtaro and said.

"Good advisor."

Higashi Kotaro calmed down at this moment and nodded with some frustration.

"Hey, look who's here? I thought you wouldn't come to my place anymore after you became a staff officer."

Just then, an energetic old man came over and said to Gu Chen with a smile on his face.

"Hey, coach, you're here. Long time no see."

Gu Chen looked in the direction of the voice and walked down from the stage while greeting.

This boxing gym was the place he had specially chosen to learn boxing skills when he was in the Science Special Search Team. He didn't stay there for too long, but in the process of learning boxing skills, he was immediately attracted by the old man in front of him. The old man tried every means to persuade Gu Chen to become a professional boxer. He was very optimistic about Gu Chen and threatened to take him to become the world boxing champion.

So after Dong Kotaro repeatedly asked to go to the boxing ring to test his own strength, Gu Chen brought him to the place where he had studied before.

"This is the young man you brought with you. I just took a look and his name is Dong, right?"

The old man smiled at Gu Chen, then looked at Dong Kotaro.

"Yes."

Upon hearing this, Higashi Kotaro immediately nodded and bowed slightly to the old man.

"I admire your perseverance very much, but you still need to grasp the basic essentials, then you will..." The old man seemed to be very optimistic about Dong Kotaro, or perhaps for Gu Chen's sake, so he directly gave him some advice, "In short, you can't become a champion by just one or two days of hard work. Ask this kid for advice more often. Come on."

As he spoke, the old man patted Gu Chen's arm, and it was unclear whether the look in his eyes was one of pride or regret.

In terms of talent, Gu Chen was the person he had seen with the greatest hope of becoming the world boxing champion. It was a pity that Gu Chen was not interested in this and could not achieve it by force.

"Thank you."

In response to the old man's advice, Dong Guangtaro accepted it humbly and kept it in mind. At the same time, he looked at Gu Chen with some curiosity.

Although they had only been together for a while, he found that there were many stories about Gu Chen that could be explored.

For example, his experience in this boxing gym, how he became so familiar with the Ultra Warriors of the Land of Light, and why Taro called him brother.

Higashi Kotaro decided that he must get to the bottom of these questions when he had the chance.

Then, after being taught a lesson in the ring and facing the reality, Higashi Kotaro changed his clothes in the locker room and left the gym with Shiratori Kenichi and Gu Chen.

"Yeah, I have to say that Kotaro still has a lot to learn. This reminds me of the days when I received combat training under my father. Thinking back on that time now, it was really...tsk tsk tsk."

On the way, Taro's shadow floated beside Gu Chen. Looking at Kotaro rubbing his bruised cheek as he walked, he couldn't help but shook his head and sighed.
