History's Strongest Disciple Kenichi 189

Chapter 189

Page 1:

This is Ryouzanpaku! This is where great people who have mastered martial arts gather…

And inside there is a quite normal High School student.

Battle 189:
Who is number 1..?

Shirahama Kenichi (1st Year High School) A previous victim of bullying.

Page 2:

Kenichi: I’m not a doll! I can’t move exactly how you want me to!

Ma: I know. Otherwise it wouldn’t take so much effort to correct the problems with your movements! / I let you out of my sight for just a little bit and you get worse.

Akisame: Kensei don’t open that knife wound he got from Yomi.

And his little sister also stays there quite a lot.

Shirahama Honoka (1st Year Middle School)

Apachai: But Kenichi, you beat up Yomi really well. You’re getting stronger.

Kenichi: Really?

Akisame: I don’t know about that.

Page 3:

Akisame: Firstly, I heard you lost consciousness after you fell down from the ropeway station.

Akisame: Also, the Silat user was from a country in Southern Asia, and he fought you barefoot in the snow…/ He was at quite the disadvantage…

Jihan: Getting warm, then getting cold. This is quite a ridiculous country.

Sakaki: When I was around Kenichi’s age, I would’ve been able to take that guy out with only one arm.

Shigure: But…it seems there were a large number of underlings…

Shigure: ..Accompanying him…

Sakaki: There’s no need to count trash…I once took out a Master who had over 100 underlings.

Ma: I once slipped through 1000 soldiers and only took out the commander.

Apachai: I once completely annihilated all my enemies and allies.

Kenichi: Alright Alright…

Honoka: Hey…it’s been on my mind for a while…/ ultimately…

Page 4 - 5:

Honoka: Who’s the strongest?

HW Text: Quite indifferent…

Page 6:

Kenichi: Wahaha…

Kenichi: Y-Y-You idiot!!

Kenichi: She asked thing you should never ever ask…even worse everyone looks indifferent about it

Page 7:

Akisame: Hmm

Akisame: Listen Honoka. What’s called peoples strength isn’t reliant on one thing alone. Things like the situation or your condition all influence the outcome…

Akisame: It also depends on your feelings. So as a rule we can’t decide who’s the strongest.

Kenichi: Hoh…

Kenichi: That’s true…when I wanted to protect Miu, I was more powerful than normal…

Sakaki: But…if we fought it out right here and now…

Sakaki: I’d definitely be the last one standing!!

HW Kenichi: Kyaa

Page 8:

Ma: Sometimes I can’t laugh at your jokes Shio-chan…

Ma: Even though it’s humorous it’s too unrealistic.

Apachai: Apachai’s master always said Muay Thai is the strongest. / Shigure: No it’s Kousakaryuu

Akisame: Calm down…

Sakaki: What’s the matter, Akisame? No faith in yourself?

Akisame: You’re all so immature…

Akisame: How could such people have truly mastered their Styles!! / Sakaki: What? Interesting thought…wanna try it!?

Kenichi: Let’s get out of here Honoka!!

This is what hell looks like.

Page 9:

Elder: This seems like fun.

Kenichi: Huh!?

Elder: Can I take part as well!?

Page 10:

Akisame: Alright let’s play Shougi for it! Igo’s fine as well.

Shigure: Knive Throwing.

Apachai: Apapa! How about Othello!

Sakaki: Wahh! That’s unfair everyone, let’s have a bike race…

Ma: Photography. We’ll decide it by art.

Elder: Honestly, don’t you have any shame! Don’t do that in front of the disciple! Everyone hasn’t been training enough!

HW Elder: Come along now you two.

Kenichi: It calmed down…

Elder: That sort of this happened quite a lot before your arrival, Kenichi.

Kenichi: Ehhh? Really!!

Elder: Well, that can’t be helped. Everyone are Martial Artists who mastered their Styles after all.

Elder: It’s only normal that somewhere in their hearts they’d want to test their skills.

Page 11:

Kenichi: Everyone seems to want strength after all.

Jihan: My Pencak Silat…

Jihan: Is suitable for the title of Strongest!

Elder: What do you want Kenichi? You don’t seem to want the title of strongest in history.

Kenichi: I don’t really have interest in such a thing.

Kenichi: I think if I have enough power to protect those important to me.

Kenichi: That’s enough.

Elder: Hoho…I wonder if that’s enough.

Kenichi: ……Eh?

Big Text: Currently Hating Themselves.

HW Akisame: What we did…

HW Apachai: Apapa

Page 12:

Miu: Hehe

Miu: That “Fight” happened again huh.

Kenichi: Is that just a greeting?

Miu: Yeah, it’s proof they get along. If it wasn’t the case, Grandfather wouldn’t be able to keep them in line.

Kenichi: Really? I thought they’d be scared of the Elder.

Miu: Of course not. They don’t care for their lives.

Miu: Actually, they all swore there would be no internal fights in Ryouzanpaku when they joined

Page 13:

Kenichi: But if it were the real thing the Elder would probably be the strongest.

Miu: Well…Grandfather often says Power isn’t necessarily strength. And victory isn’t just limited to strength alone.

Kenichi: …What does that mean?

Miu: A strong person that has trained for many decades can be defeated by someone weaker if their guard is down.

Miu: That’s what the Martial Arts world is.

Kenichi: …then…

Kenichi: What exactly…

Kenichi: Is strength?

Page 14:

Miu: Pu-

Kenichi: What? Why are you laughing?

Miu: Ahahahaha

Kenichi: Uwahh…Miu’s REALLY cute when she’s laughing.

Miu: S-Sorry. It’s just I asked the exact same thing to Grandfather when I was 6 years old.

Gardening Club President: Is it just me or after that Ski Trip incident, something seems to have changed with those two!!

HW Other Girl: Dunno…

HW GCP: Did something happen…

Kenichi: Using that logic…that means I could possibly win against the Elder.

Kenichi: There’s no chance that’s the case…

Page 15:

Kenichi: Miu seems kinder after the Ski Trip.

Miu: But I’m glad.

Kenichi: Could our relationship be getting better!

Kenichi: After 15 years of being teased, is it a light shining in this everyday life I have despised for so long!

Kenichi: I’m sorry God for hating you~

Niijima: Are you sure it’s not because she feels guilty because you got hurt…

Kenichi: That could be true!!

Kenichi: Shoo Shoo!!

Kenichi: …though anyway…

Page 16:

Kenichi: HOW LONG DO YOU PLAN ON FOLLOWING ME TSUJI!!

Tsuji: Till you fight me man to man! Dumbass!

Ex Ragnarok, Self Proclaimed Rival of Kenichi. Tsuji Shinnosuke.

Miu: Sorry but Kenichi would prefer to avoid useless fighting.

Tsuji: Ugh…

Tsuji’s Underlings: Don’t lose Captain!

Tsuji: I…was always thinking what strength was when I was training in the mountains!

Page 17:

Tsuji: And I discovered it! For me, Strength is…

Tsuji: All about a Man’s Pride. Dumbass!

Kenichi: Amazing, this person worked out what strength was all by himself…!

Tsuji: So I’ll fight on without losing, even if I die!!

Page 18:

Sakaki: What? You wanna have a fight during this sort of time!?

Tsuji: But~ Kenichi said it was alright if we did it here…

Kenichi: No…um…

Sakaki: Hey everyone, Kenichi wants to have a fight!!

Page 19:

Sakaki: Sounds like fun, let’s do it!!

Akisame: Oyah…I haven’t seen this boy before.

Apachai: I don’t know him.

Ma: That kid huh…brings back memories…

Shigure: Kenichi…that way he holds himself…is awkward…

Underlings: Captain Tsuji! Win for our sakes!!

Miu: Right now I’d say Kenichi’s much stronger than this guy.

Elder: That’s true…

Elder: But certainly, victory is not just limited to strength.

Tsuji: I heard from Niijima. You defeated a member of Yomi.

Page 20:

Tsuji: That strength of yours…

Tsuji: Show it to me.

Kenichi: W-What’s with these weird movements!?
