Kinnikuman 250

It was bad enough when the Perfect Choujin proved their mastery of magnetism. But now with the power of electricity thrown in to their magnetic power, is this the destructive force that will defeat the 20 Million Powers?

85.
Suguru: N—I really am the best, cool!

86.
Announcer: Neptuneman is holding lightning under both arms and is attacking Mongolman, who is lying in the ring---!!
Neptune: Die—

87.
Mongol: I…can’t move!!
Suguru: Mo…Mongolman!!
Buffalo: …………
Announcer: In the nick of time, partner Buffaloman has skewered Mongolman, saving him from hell--!!
Neptune: Chi
Buffalo: Are you alright, Mongolman?
Mongol: Buffaloman………I’m really glad I chose you as my partner.

88.
Budo: Hohhohoho, Neptuneman-sama, relieve yourself!
Budo: The Missionaries isn’t just one. This time, Big the Budo-sama will end Mongolman’s life!!

89.
Announcer: Ge—somehow this time Budo has Thunder Sabers under his arms--!!
Suguru: Damn! The Missionaries want to aim their attacks at the stamina-lacking Mongolman!!
Terry: Now he can only hope for his partner Buffalo.
Budo: Take this!!
Announcer: The Thunder Sabers are directly hitting Mongolman again--!!
Buffalo: Watch out Mongolman!!

90.
Buffalo: Uwa
Announcer: Neither of the 20 Million Powers, Mongolman or Buffaloman, are able to move!!
Everyone: AAH…
Neptune: A chance!!

91.
Neptune: Uwa—hahaha: Buffaloman, you can’t help Mongolman with your wounds!!
Neptune: Die—
Announcer: With a good factor from Buffaloman’s injuries, Neptuneman is setting up a final attack towards Mongolman--!!
Neptune: Wa—hahaha

92.
Neptune: Uoo—
Buffalo: N…no!! I can’t move with the Thunder Saber deeply stuck into the canvas!!
Mongol: Buffaloman…I’m really glad I chose you as my partner!
Buffalo: Uoo—will I abandon him—
Buffalo: N…?
Buffalo: It’s a fragment of the Iron Sweat that we threw from the ring earlier!!
Buffalo: I’m sure Iron Sweat is made of iron………!
(TN: It’s not just a name you know)
Buffalo: That’s…it!! I may be able to save Mongolman using this fragment of Iron Sweat!!
Neptune: Ha—hahaha, prepare yourself Mongolma—n!!

93.
Buffalo: Even if I switch it with my life…
Buffalo: I won’t let Mongolman die--!!
Neptune: Uh…
Neptune: What’s…what’s going on!? I was aiming for Mongolman……I’m quickly being moved from my orbit……!!
Suguru: It’s as if Buffaloman is pulling Neptuneman to him!!
Terry: That’s it!! Buffaloman is using lightning’s property to easily fall to metal, adjusting the orbit of the Thunder Saber, which was falling being aimed at Mongolman, towards himself by holding up that metallic Iron Sweat!!
Suguru: So then, that Buffaloman intends to use his body as a lightning rod--!!

94.
Buffaloman: Thunder Saber, it’s better to fall on top of Buffaloman!!
Neptune: If that’s how it is, then fine: I’ll victimize you--!!
Buffalo: Uwa
Audience: AAH…
Announcer: Fi…nally, Buffaloman has become a victim to Neptuneman’s Thunder Saber in the ring---!!

95.
Suguru: Who…could have predicted that Buffaloman, proud of his 10 Million Power, would take that atrocious form……
Mongol: Uuh…
Mongol: Wh…what!? Is this……dark atmosphere…!?
Mongol: Per…haps.

96.
Mongol: Buffaloman!!
Mongol: You…became this way to save me…Show me your energety form once more!!
Mongol: Buffaloman!!
Buffalo: Here’s my reply to your words earlier…
Buffalo: ……I’m happy I chose you too…
Buffalo: …………
Mongol: Bu…Buffaloman!!

97.
Neptune: Hahahaha, even Buffaloman has the qualities of being a good Perfect Choujin, if he hadn’t been infatuated to this thing called friendship! In the end, Buffaloman was wounded by you Justice Choujin!!
Mongol: No! Buffaloman is sleeping satisfied having enforced friendship as a Justice Choujin to the end!!
Mongol: If Kinnikuman hadn’t restored our friendship, he would never have that peaceful face!
Mongol: Well, Buffaloman, lend me your power!
Brocken: Ge…that’s the stance for the Longhorn Train! Mongolman has yet to give up in getting to the finals!!
Brocken: He’s using his life crudely---doesn’t he understand Buffaloman’s feelings--!!
Terry: No, this may be an operation where Buffaloman is intensifying Mongolman’s anger power. Those called Justice Choujin explode with unbelievable power when facing the injury or death of an ally.
Suguru: Buffaloman, you’re that type…

98.
Mongol: Take this!! Longhorn Train--!!
Announcer: Well, the 20 Million Powers’ Longhorn Train sets off, with the dream of a comeback victory on board--!!
Suguru: Mongolman, will your anger power win…can it win against the calm judgment of the Perfect Choujin……?
Neptune: If we can just defeat that technique, then we Missionaries will head to the finals!
Neptune: Longhorn Train Destroyer!!

99.
Announcer: Mongolman is hit in the leg---!
Neptune: Magnet Power +!
Budo: Magnet Power -!
Announcer: The Longhorn Train is being split apart by Magnet Power, in spite of there being no Iron Sweat---!!

100.
Neptune: Magnetic Storm Crash!!

101.
Mongol: Bu…Buffaloman, even with my anger power, it…
Mongol: Was no…ma…match for the Perfect Chou…jin.
Announcer: The 20 Million Powers may not be getting back up again. The Hell Missionaries are terribly strong!!
Neptune: The match isn’t over yet. Have you forgotten? The Perfect Choujin have the holy ceremony of the Mask Hunt. That will end it and, for the first time, we’ll be declared the winner!
Suguru: Those two—So…somehow if we don’t get in the way of them ripping off Mongolman’s mask……!!
Terry: Wait, Kinnikuman. Your body is important to hold back until the finals. What will you do if they do it to that?
Suguru: Shut up!!
Suguru: Who’s going to stop me…

102.
Robin: No one will stop you.
Suguru: That…voice is Robin Mask!!
Robin: Even if you climb Tournament Mountain now, Mongolman’s mask will be ripped off when you get there.
Robin: However
Robin: You may be in time if you put these on!
Suguru: Is…isn’t that your armor!!
Robin: This armor is made of steel! Thus, if you skillfully get pulled in by the magnetic storm released by Neptuneman’s team, then you should be able to get to the ring where Mongolman is with no trouble!!

103.
Suguru: Understood, that’s a good idea!!
Suguru: Hold on—Mongolman
Suguru: Now I’ll save you--!!

CHOUJIN DEADLY TECHNIQUE SERIES
13. CROSS BOMBER
First Big the Budo hits you with a lariat from behind, and then you’re driven into a lariat by Neptuneman’s Hardness 10 Diamond Arm. The shock will throw off the masked Choujin’s mask.

A Word from Neptuneman: The Hell Missionaries’ representative special technique and personally one of my favorite techniques. Since Budo’s big arm and my Diamond Arm strike from both sides, whoever takes it will lose their life while having their mask ripped off. You readers! Stop imitating it due to its danger.

TN: Did you ever have this weird feeling sometimes when reading a manga that something that makes a whole lot of sense...that actually sounds like the mangaka did their homework for once and actually made it seem like they were following the laws of physics and were actually making it seem like it was true and that you can believe what they're saying...just felt so wrong!? Alright, let's back up for a moment: when I saw the whole concept regarding how Buffaloman decided to draw away Neptuneman's Thunder Saber from Mongolman using a fragment from the Iron Sweat, I read it at first like it was something that actually made a whole lot of sense. Lightning is drawn by metal, therefore allowing for a bolt to strike that before striking any other areas in a vicinity. However...that's when I snapped out of it. First of all, the lightning that would be affected by this metallic property would be actual lightning that falls directly from the sky to said metal. The lightning in Thunder Saber and, and I'm seeing this correctly, two cartoonish "lightning bolts" of physical existence held under the armpits of Neptuneman that he seems to carry down towards the opponent. If it was real lightning, I'd get the metal property...but it's not even real lightning when Neptuneman (or Big the Budo) has it so it really shouldn't work. Secondly...is the fact that it is controlled by Neptuneman/Big the Budo. When they literally have the lightning bolts under their arms, doesn't this mean that they themselves control the lightning and not the natural order itself? Therefore, wouldn't the lightning just be carried to whomever they want it to like, say, Mongolman instead of being driven away back to Buffaloman? And finally...why the heck did we even bring the stupid Iron Sweat back into the story? Yeah, it makes sense that a fragment could be left behind on the mat, but...I sort of hoped that stupid part of the fight would be forgotten by now.

Aside from the destruction of the laws of physics for entertainment purposes, you do have to give it up to Buffaloman for all he did this time around...and likewise Mongolman's final "Longhorn Train". And you also have to give it up...to Robin Sock. (yeah, my nickname for Robin Mask thanks to this chapter) Is it just me or is his armor saving Suguru more these days (see also the Akuma Shogun fight) than himself?
