Sakigake!! Otoko Juku 233

With little effort (well, no effort), Edajima has easily done away with a member of the Meiou Island forces! But just when you think he's ready to take on his destined opponent, he may need to show off a bit of his hard-headedness!

Chp. 233: Ougi: Toutsui Shousai!!

27.
Toramaru: I...I don't believe this: in only a few seconds from the start of the competition...............!!
Togashi: He...he had th...that match......!!
Momotarou: His opponent had been approached to before his eyes with merely the interval of the instant he closed his eyes so he could concentrate and the match was over with one sturdy fist. It's as Jaki-senpai said after all: the Principal's strength wasn't a remnant!!
Edajima: I AM OTOKOJUKU'S THIRD HELPER---!!

28.
Edajima: N!?
Edajima: No: my jaw was disconnected.
Edajima: That quite happens a lot lately.
Hon: ............!!
Edajima: That will be fine. Well, if you're Meiou Island 16-Warriors Instructor Hon Shihan, then its best you come at me from anywhere.
Hon: Fufu: that I greatly wish to; but I can't do as such; the circumstances have become coupled!!

29.
Edajima: !!

30.
Ryuu Zuikyou: My name is Ryuu Zuikyou of the Meiou Island 16-Warriors!! My little brother took your favor!!
Edajima: Little brother......!?
Hon: Fufu: right; this man, Zuikyou, is actually the older brother who is divided by blood with Zuiki, whom you've defeated on the basis of that blow by you now. Please sympathise with his feelings!!
Edajima: Right: I say he is avenging the enemy of his little brother, who had the spirit of looking up to him. Don't be in pain; it's best you come at me to your heart's content. Even so, he does have a peculiar head!

31.
Ryuu Zuikyou: I won't show softness...!!
Toramaru: Uoo---!! Wh...what is he thinking---!
Togashi: Th...that guy witht he bizarre-shaped head: he's dropping an enormous rock over his own head---!!

32.
Ryuu Zuikyou: HA!!
Ryuu Zuikyou: MEIOUTOU CHOUOUGI: TOUTSUI SHOUSAI!!
(TN: "Toutsui Shousai" = "Head-Hammer Bell-Breaker")
Toramaru: Aaaaah, he...he crushed to small pieces that enormous rock~~~!!
Momotarou: Toutsui Shousai............!?

33.
Commentary:
Toutsui Shousai...in every grappling style, the third weapon of the human body after arms and legs is the head. Further, there are cases where it's destructive power surpasses even the arms and legs. It is extremely stressed in Chinese Kenpou and fighters concentrate in tempering their heads. The ultitmate training method for it is Toutsui Shousai; that is a physical labor that is said to involve striking a bell of a temple with the head in place of a wooden bell hammer. The heads of those who have mastered this have a hardened potrubance; even their bones have been modified and they're endowed with the strength and form that's like an iron hammer.

Even among them, the sound of a bell struck by a master among masters will somehow echo to a circumference of 10 Ri (around 40 km) and is useful even for the Joya Bell on New Year's Eve or warning in times of calamity.
-From "For Whom the Bell Tolls", Minmei Publishing
(TN: A couple notes:
1. The "Joya Bell" is a tradition on New Years Eve at a Buddhist temple in Japan where a bell must be rung 108 times to bring in the New Year, in honor of the 108 elements of bonou (defilements) in a person's mind.
2. Yes, you're reading the book title correctly: in Japanese it is "Ta ga Tame ni Kane wa Naru", which translates into this famous saying)

Edajima: Fufu: I'm astonished. That's a great power. But if it's about hard heads, I too have self pride in it!!
Ryuu Zuikyou: You have self-pride......!! In that case, how about you undretake it: Toutsui Shousai's ultimate dueling method!!
Edajima: What, an ultimate dueling method......!?

34.
Edajima: Mu!!
Togashi: L...look---!! Th...that's----!
Toramaru: A...a log has completely emerged from the side wall of the battleground----!! Wh...what exactly are they going to do with it---!
Ryuu Zuikyou: Undertake this!!
Edajima: What are these!?

35.
Ryuu Zuikyou: I will tell you: you turn to your behind like so and seal both your arms. Once these finger locks, that are made of Kyokugou Copper, are put on, it's absolutely impossible to take them off.
(TN: "Kyokugou Copper" or "Kyokugoukou" = "Ulitmate Sturdiness Copper")
Ryuu Zuikyou: That is: in this match, it is absolutely forbidden to use your hands!! Your weapon is just our heads and, when we step forwards, we will fight on the one log to the depths of hell!!
Ryuu Zuikyou: What will you do!? Will you splendidly undertake this!!
Edajima: Fufu, amusing.
Edajima: We'll make black and white which of us has the real blockhead!!

36.
Togashi: Th...that idiot---!! Wh...why is that Principal undertaking that dangerous match---! He...he'd absolutely win if they fought normally---!!
Toramaru: It's...it's as we saw earlier about that: the destructive power of his head isn't usual~~~~!!
Momotarou: ............!!

37.
Ryuu Zuikyou: Let's go---!!
Edajima: Ooh!!
Ryuu Zuikyou: Does this idiot think he can win against my Toutsui---!!

38.
Ryuu Zuikyou: Na!!
Ryuu Zuikyou: .........!! Y...you.........!!
Edajima: Fufu, that's your level, even with your Toutsui Shousai? I won't be defeated by that.
Togashi: Uoo!! A...amazing, Principal---!
Toramaru: That hammer-headed guy was sent flying with one blow and his forehead split apart~~~!!

39.
Ryuu Zuikyou: Nuu!!
Ryuu Zuikyou: Guwa!!
Ryuu Zuikyou: Guku!!
Ryuu Zuikyou: St...stupid, my Toutsui has............!! Su...suppose you too have training in Toutsui Shousai......!!

40.
Edajima: Wahhahaha: this is my block-head that I've possessed from birth---!!
Ryuu Zuikyou: Uo!!
Togashi: It's...as if he's not a match! We've been awfully worried about this---!!
Momotarou: He...surely is a monster...............!! That man's strength transcends everything.
Edajima: It's useless: no matter how much you do it, it will be the same going further. Add on training and come back again. I'll take you on anytime!

41.
Ryuu Zuikyou: Fufu, is that really so?
Edajima: He doesn't get it.
Edajima: !!
Ryuu Zuikyou: Take this---!!
Edajima: Guo!!

42.
Togashi: Wh...what---!!
Toramaru: Th...that guy: he...he violated the seal of his arms and is using a kenzan-like object---!!
(TN: A "kenzan" is an object used in ikebana [flower-arranging] with needles protruding from a heavy base to push the branches of the flowers)
Ryuu Zuikyou: Fufufu: My finger-lock could have been removed any time. But then, yours isn't as such.
Edajima: Y...you fool............!! Do...do you think that even your little brother will be pleased in winning against me with that behavior......!!
Ryuu Zuikyou: Fu, my little brother?

43.
Ryuu Zuikyou: Anything is fine in revenging that bad-performing little brother. Defeating you no matter what method I use and measuring up to Toudou Hyoue, the chairman of this tournament, is my purpose!!
Edajima: Ri...right: I feel relieved by hearing that.
Edajima: Wi...with that, I can send you to hell without hesitation...............!!
Ryuu Zuikyou: What's with that muttering---!! This is the end---!
Momotarou: Pr...Principal---!!

44.
Momotarou: .........!!

45.
Edajima: You had feelings in your heart thinking of your little brother and undertook this match.
Ryuu Zuikyou: This was for my selfish desires.
(TN: I really don't know if this line was by Zuikyou or by Edajima. If it was Zuikyou, then it sounds like it was more like Zuikyou confessing his selfishness in fighting Edajima just now. But if Edajima is saying it, then it would be him resolving a conclusion to Zuikyou's purpose on his own. Honestly I think it's the former due to where the dialogue bubble is pointing but we'll see)
Edajima: I AM OTOKOJUKU'S THIRD HELPER---!!

TN: Alright, this chapter begs to have this question asked: did Hon know Zuikyou was going to pull that with the appearance of the little brother like that? I mean he was all ready at least twice, but both times he was pulled back, first by Zuiki, then...by essentially knowing Zuikyou was going to attempt revenge for Zuiki's failure. Then again...if it weren't for how insane and epic the match was (I mean, it's Edajima headbutting and biting his way to victory), I probably would have cared more about the intrusion. Though...you do have to wonder where the honor is in anyone that Toudou has recruited for this tournament with all the losers on his side that he's stuck with (moreso I say him and Hon because Gouki is just putting up with all of them being the son), but at least Hon will probably try to finally enter next time...lest there are any more interruptions. (we know this series too well by now)
