Chp. 61: Thundering Once More

88.-89.
(Nothing really to say)

90.
(And Manjimaru pierces a pillar with his body…)

91.
Toramaru: Wh…what was that terrible sound---!! Did…thunder fall down--!!
Date: That J has just fired it……F.P.P., the legendary punch…!!
Togashi: Wh…what? So then, J won’t be able to box ever again for the rest of his………………!!
Momotarou: J……!!
J: I don’t regret this…………a man bets their life in a fight…is that what you meant? You taught me that with your life, Raiden…………

92.
J: Let’s go. Everyone is waiting below.

93.
J: !!

94.
Manjimaru: Nuguuu, yo…you burned using that F.P.P.!............However, it isn’t perfected yet……………I am the man called Manjimaru, one of the Shitennou…I don’t have a reason to lose to that.
J: …………………!!

95.
Manjimaru: Fu, did you think that I didn’t know………when you attack with F.P.P., the really horrific burden is you destroy your muscles, making you not able to use that arm ever again.
Manjimaru: Now you’re just like a bird whose feathers have been plucked off……the last of my desperate effort will thrown this next attack………
Manjimaru: NUURYA----!!

96.-97.
J: Kuu!!
J: FLASH PISTON MACH PUNCH----!!
Manjimaru: Huh……!?

98.
Toramaru: Wh…what’s that sound now…………!!
Momotarou: The same sound as earlier…the sound of F.P.P.!!
Date: I don’t get it: I’ve heard that F.P.P. is a that can be thrown just once in your life, conversely ending your life as a boxer……why is he doing it again…………!!
Toramaru: !!

99.
Toramaru: Lo…look: someone is descending using the rope ladder from the Hyakuchuurin!
Togashi: It’s J, J’s won!
Toramaru: J really did it--!!

100.
Toramaru: Wh…what---!!
Toramaru: Y…you’re Manjimaru……….!!
Togashi: So then, J has l…lost…………!
Date: ………………!!

101.
Manjimaru: Are you surprised, 1st brats……………are you complaining of something……………
Togashi: How dare you do that to J!! You killed him---!!
Manjimaru: Fuffufu, he’s a great person. The F.P.P., called legendary, is completely his own. This has been the greatest match in my life…I couldn’t even imagine his strength………
Togashi & Toramaru: Huh!?
Manjimaru: Its best you keep at your best…this Daiishin Paaren Seiha…if you possess the same power as him, then we may see a bright future.

102.
Togashi: Wh…what exactly was that…………!?
Momotarou: Somehow, J seems to have perfected the F.P.P…
Wan Taaren: His death is confirmed.
Toramaru: He…hey, th…that’s………!!

103.
Togashi & Toramaru: J--!!

104.
Toramaru: You did it, J—you’ve really done it--!!
Togashi: You’ve really lived and returned---!!
Togashi & Toramaru: !?
J: It wasn’t just me who won…both of us won……………I wished that for Raiden earlier.

105.
Momotarou: J, is your arm alright…the physical strength of your arm is greater than we anticipated.
J: Whatever troubles befall us, we won’t give up…I completed the F.P.P. because Raiden taught me that.
Momotarou: Right, we won’t lose……for Raiden too!!
Wan Taaren: Kiryuu Gate: Jikan Hyakuchuurin Fight, victory for the Otokojuku First-Years---!! Now let’s go! To the next battle gate of the Daiishin Paaren Seiha!!

TN: I know I never said it before this point and waited to the end but...I have to give it to Manjimaru for giving an incredible fight and for pushing J beyond his limit. Mouryouken was an impressive fighting style and the way he went out, coming right down from the pillars and lighting a cigarette before rupturing in blood to his death, shows how respectful and fierce both he and his fight was in the end. (way better than that idiot Henshouki) J's situation...I applaud him for a great fight too but somehow or another knowing this series, I seriously doubt that his arms were annihilated or ruptured considering he used the F.P.P. twice...I loved how it was done but I think that whole bit was a tad hammy. But hey, with one battle done, we can finally move to the second of the Paaren Seiha matches...maybe...
