Chapter 393: Hungry Wolf vs. Han

Garou bent his waist slightly, his legs slightly bent, his hands formed a smooth and powerful arc, and he assumed his signature "I-style" fighting stance. His eyes were as sharp as an eagle's, firmly locked on Han, and all the muscles in his body were tense, like a beast ready to strike, ready to give his opponent a fatal blow at any time.

Han stood there, his deep breathing coming from under his red mask, his armor gleaming darkly in the sun. With a low shout, Han's chakra suddenly erupted, and the power of Boiling Release instantly surged out, "Boiling Release: Unparalleled Power!" Steam gushed out from all parts of Han's body like a hurricane, and the entire battlefield was surrounded by a stream of hot air, as if the earth was shaking. The steam greatly increased his strength and speed, and he seemed to have turned into a moving volcano.

"Boom!" With a loud noise, Garou and Han exerted their strength almost at the same time, rushing towards each other like two gusts of wind. Garou's movements were as fast as lightning, and his fists struck at unpredictable angles, each of which was accompanied by a sharp gust of wind, as if it was tearing the air apart. His "I-style" physical skills emphasized prediction and reaction speed, combined with powerful explosive power, and each strike was accurately aimed at Han's vital points.

Han's movements are steady and powerful. Each of his punches is accompanied by an explosion of steam, with overwhelming force. The impact of the steam is released violently the moment he punches and kicks. Each blow is as heavy as thunder, and the air is filled with a scorching breath. His "unparalleled strength" is combined with the power of steam, making each punch and kick have a powerful destructive power.

The fists of the two met in the air, making a deafening explosion. Garou's fist was like a lightning bolt, hitting Han's armor with a dull "bang", but was blocked by Han's steam power. At the same time, Han's fist also hit Garou fiercely, with the impact of steam, as if to knock his opponent away. But Garou flexibly dodged sideways, his footsteps followed him, quickly opened up the distance, and then swept a low kick to Han's lower body.

Han's eyes flashed, and he kicked his legs suddenly, leaping up like a beast, avoiding Garou's sweeping kick. The moment he landed, Han used the explosive power of the steam to rush towards Garou, and his fist hit Garou's chest like a sledgehammer. Garou crossed his arms in front of him to block, and took the heavy blow. The ground under his feet cracked due to the impact.

The pain in the wolf's chest only aroused his stronger fighting spirit. A sneer appeared on his lips, and his eyes flashed with a fighting spirit. "Haha! This is interesting! Come on, try my fist again!"

He no longer hesitated, his body spun quickly, his fists swung like the wind, and the shadows of his fists fell on Han's upper body like raindrops. Each punch was heavy, and the attack of the hungry wolf was sharp and precise, not giving Han any chance to breathe. His movements were extremely crisp, and his fists hit one after another, like an endless storm, constantly oppressing Han.

Han's eyes remained calm. He tilted his body slightly and used the explosive power of steam to quickly dodge Garou's continuous attacks. Steam gushed out of his body, forming white mist in the air. He clenched his fists and pushed them forward suddenly. The powerful steam rushed straight to Garou's face along with the power of his fists.

"You're nothing special." Han responded coldly, and his fist, with the impact of steam, quickly hit the hungry wolf.

Garou's fist collided violently with Han's steam fist, making a dull collision sound. Garou felt a strong force coming from his fist, and was knocked back a few steps, but he immediately stabilized his body, and the excitement in his eyes became stronger.

"Is this what you call strength? It's not good enough!" The hungry wolf suddenly jumped, turned his body in the air, raised his right leg high, and swept towards Han's head with a sharp gust of wind. His attack was sharp and direct, full of wildness and power.

Han quickly raised his left arm and blocked the wolf's kick with his hard armor. The wolf's leg collided with Han's armor, making a dull "bang" sound, and the huge impact made Han's body shake slightly. Then, Han suddenly exerted force with his legs, leaned forward, and his right fist with the explosive force of steam quickly hit the wolf's abdomen.

Garou sensed the danger and quickly twisted his body, trying to avoid the blow, but Han's fist still grazed his abdomen, and the powerful force made Garou's body tremble violently in the air. He gritted his teeth, quickly counterattacked with both hands, and his fist hit Han's chest like lightning.

Han endured Garou's counterattack head-on, and his body was shaken back by Garou's strength. But he did not hesitate, and quickly stabilized his body, formed seals with his hands, and whispered, "Boiling Escape: Steam Shock!" Steam gushed out of Han's body, quickly forming a hot airflow on the battlefield, sweeping towards Garou.

Garou felt the strong airflow and quickly retreated, trying to avoid the impact of the steam. But the steam was too fast and surrounded him in an instant. Garou felt the hot breath burning his skin, but he still did not flinch. He clenched his fists and rushed forward suddenly, directly facing Han's steam impact.

"This little bit of heat can't defeat me at all!" The hungry wolf gritted his teeth, and withstood the impact of the steam, his fists approached Han quickly with great force. Then, he suddenly jumped up, clamped his legs together, and smashed down on Han's head.

Han quickly raised his hands and crossed his arms above his head to block the attack from the wolf. The wolf's legs slammed heavily on Han's arm armor, making a loud "bang" sound. The powerful impact made Han's body sink, and the ground under his feet suddenly cracked with several deep marks.

"Do you think you can beat me?" Han snorted coldly, and suddenly exerted force with his arms to push away Garou's legs. Then, he suddenly exerted force, and his right fist with the power of steam rushed straight into Garou's chest. Garou was hit by this punch, and his body was shaken and flew backwards, but he quickly adjusted his posture in the air and landed steadily, with a smile on his face that showed more fighting spirit.

"Interesting, keep going!" Garou clenched his fists, his fighting spirit boiling. He rushed towards Han again, and the entire battlefield fell into a fierce confrontation again.

During the fierce battle with Garou, Han gradually felt the opponent's strength. He frowned slightly, realizing that it would be difficult to suppress Garou in a short time with his own strength. He quickly established contact with the Five-Tailed King Mu in his body, "King Mu, lend me some strength."

Following Han's request, King Mu's chakra quickly surged out, and a tail condensed by chakra gradually emerged behind Han. The tail flashed with hot light, steam filled the surroundings, the temperature of the entire battle field rose sharply, and the air was full of oppression.

Garou did not flinch, he quickly launched a "Sky-Splitting Kick", leaped up with both legs, and hit Han's chest at an astonishing speed. Just as Garou's attack was about to hit Han, Han's chakra tail swept over suddenly, with great force, knocking Garou flying.

The wolf's body rolled in the air and hit the rocks at the edge of the battlefield. There was a loud bang, and the broken stones flew everywhere. His skin was burned by the steam, and the burning pain spread throughout his body.

The hungry wolf stood up quickly and reached out to wipe the skin on his face that was stinging from the heat.

"You are really good at this. It seems that you are not just strong on the outside." The hungry wolf sneered, with a glimmer of madness in his eyes. Although his face was covered with scars, those wounds gradually healed themselves before he finished speaking, and the surface of his skin began to recover.

Akatsuki clenched his fists at the sidelines. Seeing Han's chakra tail fighting with Garou, he couldn't help but shout loudly: "Master Han! Come on! You must defeat him!"

Han's eyes remained calm. He stared at Garou and said in a low but powerful voice, "Isn't this your limit?"

Garou showed a slightly arrogant smile, and his injured face healed instantly. He wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and said coldly: "Yes, I am looking forward to your full power after it explodes."

The audience was all shocked, and Ohnoki's eyes became more solemn. He looked at Garou's wound that healed instantly, and felt uneasy. Ohnoki tilted his head slightly and stared coldly at Drome, with a tone of sarcasm and questioning: "Are these also the 'strengths' of your New Konoha? This abnormal self-healing ability, is it what you call 'medical technology'?"

Drome still maintained his calm expression. He smiled slightly, and said in a calm and powerful tone, "Tsuchikage-sama, this is one of the technological achievements of our New Konoha. If you are willing to join our united front, the leaders of the Iwagakure Village will also be able to obtain this power. What we provide is not only power, but also the determination to protect this world."

Ohnoki's eyes wavered for a moment, but he regained his composure immediately. He knew that the price behind this kind of power might be extremely heavy, but the current situation forced him to reconsider the proposal for New Konoha.

Ohnoki narrowed his eyes slightly, pondered for a moment, and then said coldly: "Let's wait and see." There was a hint of hesitation in his words, as if he was thinking about the changes in the situation before him.

At the moment when Ohnoki finished speaking, Garou's aura suddenly changed, as if the fighting passion hidden in his body suddenly burst out. His eyes became sharper, his muscles tensed, and the frenzy of fighting surged in his body, making it almost impossible for him to suppress it. Garou's mouth corners slightly raised, and an expression of almost ecstasy appeared on his face.

"It looks like the battle is finally reaching its climax." Garou muttered to himself, his tone full of excitement. He quickly adjusted his body position, thrust his left hand forward, and performed the opening move of "Whirlwind Iron Fist". The muscles on his arm bulged, and a strong airflow surged between his palms, as if ready to release destructive power at any time.

At the same time, Garou's right hand slowly retreated, clenching his fist, forming a defensive posture of "Water-Smashing Rock Fist". The veins on his arm were faintly visible, as if it contained a power that should not be underestimated. This move has both swift offensive power and lasting defensive power, which is the essence of Garou's original "Double Fist Flow" fighting style.

The air was filled with tension, and the wolf's fighting spirit was almost condensed into substance. There seemed to be an invisible pressure spreading across the battlefield. Every movement exuded a fierce momentum, as if an unimaginable attack power would burst out in the next second.

He slowly raised his head, fixed his eyes on Han, and whispered, "Are you ready? This attack will not let you down."
