Kinnikuman 183

One is the newest and most unknown allies of the Justice Choujin, the other is possibly the most powerful of the Devil Knights! But can the young Geronimo really stand up to the unstoppable sand Choujin Sunshine!?

Chapter 183: Gold Mask Arc (24): Geronimo’s Desperate Situation!

38.
Narrator: Five-Tier Ring, 1st Floor: the bloody fight of Robin Mask vs. Junkman in the Bloody Sea Hell was victory for Justice Choujin Robin Mask with the Reverse Tower Bridge!
Narrator: 2nd Floor: the heated fight of Brocken Jr. vs. The Ninja in the Scorching Hell was another victory for Justice Choujin Brocken Jr. by Companion Hell!
Narrator: However, on the 3rd Floor, the fraying fight of Terryman vs. Ashuraman in Tornado Hell unexpectedly was a hard fight for both Terryman and Ashuraman, with the result a tie for Ring Out for both participants, cutting off the dream of consecutive victories for the Justice Choujin!

39.
Narrator: And so, facing the final stage with the Justice Choujin with 2 Wins, 0 Loss & 1 Tie, the 4th floor death match of Geronimo vs. Sunshine is—
Announcer: Justice Choujin Geronimo is in a desperate situation falling into a trap of Sunshine’s Sand Hell!!

40.
Geronimo: How…how could sand move to the ceiling……!!
Sunshine: Sand really is weak to wind. However, in reverse, it can go anywhere…for example, in the small ring cracks……
Sunshine: So, Geronimo, here’s where you can’t escape.
Geronimo: Among the Justice Choujin, I’m the most unheated…
(TN: The expression that Geronimo uses is “The heated end”)
Geronimo: You can’t put me down---!!
Geronimo: Chest---!!
Sunshine: Guo kuo—
Geronimo: Ge, my Tomahawk Chop!!

41.
Geronimo: In…ineffective.
Announcer: Sunshine, who can make his whole body sand, just whittles off the sand even when struck with a chop and doesn’t take the damage.
Geronimo: Uwa! Wh…what can…can I do? Sunshine’s body is quickly becoming heavier……
Suguru: You…you fool!!
Suguru: He’s increasing his weight in the middle of a match……!!
Robin: Ah…sweat. Sunshine, whose whole body is sand, is absorbing the moisture coming out of his opponent’s body, which can change his sand to earth…!!

42.
Suguru: If…if that’s the case, then Sunshine’s body is holding the moisture of the part of Geronimo’s body that he’s touching, discoloring it!
Robin: At this rate, Geronimo will have the moisture taken from his body and Sunshine’s massive body will crush him to death!!
Suguru: Robin! Isn’t there some escape method!?
Robin: None! All we can do anymore is hope Geronimo can endure.
Suguru: Wh—a? We have to defeat Sunshine to get back that Gold Mask, so why did we leave that edge of heat Geronimo the important 4th Floor! It would have been better if it was you or Terry!!
Robin: What are you saying! Geronimo is actually the edge of heated…but in compensation, the rest of him is gutsy! I left it to him---!!
Geronimo: Kinnikuman-senpai…Robin-senpai……Stop fighting due to me…!!

43.
Geronimo: I haven’t lost to Sunshine yet!!
Suguru: Geronimo!!
Announcer: Sunshine’s immense body, who has absorbed a lot of moisture, takes a Body Slam---!!
Geronimo: Uh!
Suguru: Wh…what is that sound now!!
Brocken: He tore his Achilles’ tendon! He’s overdoing it.

44.
Announcer: Here Sunshine prepares for a Back Drop---!!
Geronimo: Don’t sell me off
Geronimo: So easily!!
Announcer: However, Geronimo returns it with a Flying Maier---!!
Geronimo: Uwa
Suguru: That Geronimo, this time he broke his hip!!

45.
Suguru: Why is he here facing Sunshine!
Terry: I know why.
Suguru: Terry.
Terry: He’s desperately filling a hole in the Justice Choujin that came up with the absence of Wolfman and Warsman…
Everyone: Geronimo
Announcer: And now Geronimo is aiming a Guillotine Drop for Sunshine to defeat him him without delay.
Sunshine: Thanks!!
Geronimo: Ge

46.
Sunshine: Guokuokuo, I’ll break your skull—
Announcer: Sunshine shows his match cleverness too, countering with a Giant Swing using his monstrous power—
Sunshine: Die—
Announcer: Geronimo’s in dan—ger.
Geronimo: Ge

47.
Announcer: He did it: Geronimo is doing what no one has predicted in fighting a clean fight through now facing Don-level Devil Knight Sunshine.
Suguru: He’s stronger than Terryman!
Terry: He really is strong…but why on earth do I have a hunch on how his body is breaking down!?
Suguru: Terry, you’re jealous because you’re the only one with a tie—
Terry: No! Geronimo is just too wounded compared to the other Choujin!!
Terry: What’s called a “Choujin” is no different from a human in a typical life, but the moment it becomes a fight, they fully release their immortal Choujin power!!
Terry: However, Geronimo isn’t like that, even while being torn to pieces.

48.
Sunshine: DIE—
Geronimo: Uwa
Announcer: Geronimo dodges and Sunshine falls into the canvas--!!
Suguru: Your chance, Geronimo—
Geronimo: Got it—
Sunshine: Wa…wait, Geronimo! If you’re the edge of a sportsman, then can’t you restore my posture to normal…

49.
Geronimo: Fine!
Announcer: In the midst of this wild bloody fight, we have a fair moment of sportsmen comrades…!!
Geronimo: Ge! His top half isn’t there!
Sunshine: Geronimo, your heart is too nice to be a Choujin.
Sunshine: This is how you’ve acted. I’ve been too soft on my Sand Hell.

50.
Sunshine: Until now, I’ve seen your moves…now, you’ll never be able to return the techniques I’ll unleash!!
Geronimo: What—
Announcer: Geronimo’s Tomahawk Chop has split Sunshine in half--!!
Announcer: A…a—nd, Geronimo has become buried inside Sunshine---!!

TN: It does seem weird that everyone is starting to discover that there is something rather "different" about Geronimo even now, but of course the truth isn't going to be spit out that soon. Meanwhile, it is peculiar that they finally seem to explain the whole aspect of what makes a Choujin's body so much different from a normal human, mostly in that, aside from death, they can pretty much take anything and everything from torn limbs to ruptured organs and are essentially "immortals" in their fights. That could explain something regarding Geronimo...but can't say how or what yet. On the other hand, Sunshine is just ruthless in his power and mental games he's putting the Indian through...of course, the battle is just going to get worse!
