Sakigake!! Otoko Juku 111

With Manjimaru's destiny-breaking performance, Otokojuku has gotten two straight victories against the forces of Olympus! But these will not be taken down lightly...and the god forces may finally stop horsing around...

Chp. 111: Kaichuu Fuyuutai!!

123.
Delphi: I…don’t believe it: m…my prediction was off and Gemini the Twin-Star was defeated…………!! Wh…what exactly are these Otokojuku guys……!?
Icarus: Zeus-sama, the next match should be for Icarus.
Apollo: What………!! He certainly should leave it to Apollo.
Hercules: No, to Hercules……..
(TN: Considering those three really aren’t going to be fighting, I’ll just give a quick translation to those three just because:
-Icarus: “Chosen [actually not sure since that first kanji was imposible to find] Tear River [the same “su” kanji as the one in Achilles]”
-Apollo/Apollon = “Raven Wild-Grape Arguement”
-Hercules/Heracles = “Agreeable Carriage Order River” [again, that “su”])
Voice: Out of the way, all of you will not be left this any further.

124.-125.
Olympus Fighters: IT’S CENTAUR THE UNICORN, VICE-GOD OF THE OLYMPUS 16-BATTLE GODS!!
(TN: “Centaur” / “Kentauros” = “Hoisted Helmet Majestic Assembly”)

126.
Olympus Fighter 1: Ho…hold on, Centaur, this is nothing, only the semifinals of the Preliminary League, you……
Olympus Fighter 2: R…right, we…we’ll handle it here……………Achilles and Gemini were merely unprepared.
Centaur: You idiots don’t get it yet…they weren’t unprepared: those men of Otokojuku possess an unexpected power…I can never forgive any more mud covering the glorious name of Olympus.
Olympus Fighters: …………
Zeus: I’ll leave this to you, Centaur: no one else but you as my right hand man can go out and suppress our disgrace and my boiling anger.
Centaur: I certainly will, Zeus-sama.

127.
Toramaru: Are…you alright, Manjimaru…no, Manjimaru-senpai!!
Togashi: Y…you’re bleeding horribly. Quickly get treated in the first-aid room in the helicopter!! But of course, as one of the Shitennou, you defeated that stubborn duo!!
Togashi: You should worry that your hair is a mess---!! To me, a hairstyle is a serious thing.
Momotarou: It’s considerate that the sun is going down. The next match will be fought in the darkness of night.
Date: ……Yep.
Toramaru: Uuh…n..now it’s my turn---!!
Togashi: N…no one can complain anymore---!!
Togashi & Toramaru: IT’S MY TURN~~~!!
Gekkou: Are you fine in doing this?

128.
Togashi & Toramaru: HE…HENSHOUKI---!!
Henshouki: Fufu, I can demonstrate the true value of my Nanchouji Kyoutaiken in the dark night, like a fish going in water.
(TN: Reminder: “Nanchouji Kyoutaiken” = “Nanchou/Southern Dynasty Temple Physically Taught Fist”)
Togashi: D…don’t be joking; I’ve endured with patience for so long~~~~~!!
Toramaru: Right, we’ve watched these human matches with our fingers in our mouths for so long~~~!!
Henshouki: Fu, you should look underfoot.
Toramaru: Hu~~h, underfoot~~!?
Togashi: What exactly is going on underfoot…………

129.
Togashi & Toramaru: !!
Toramaru: He’s floating!!
Togashi & Toramaru: Wh…what~~~!! Henshouki’s body is floating in mid-air~~~!

130.
Toramaru: He…flew at once to the battleground far over there………!!
Togashi: This…isn’t a human technique………!! What exactly is that………!?
Date: Henshouki, the man who has mastered Nanchouji Kyoutaiken, which is feared as a devilish fist with its bizarre techniques through the history of Chinese kenpou. Fufu, he’s friendly while he’s eerie.

131.
Centaur: I don’t need to give out my name. I won’t be doing anything. First, you will be facing my Unicorn.
Henshouki: Fu, a unicorn, the one-horned horse of legend from Greek myth……………fine then.

132.
Centaur: Hau!!

133.
Toramaru: Wh…what a horse!! He can stab him with that horn without problem~~~!! And while that guy on top of him isn’t doing anything, he’s attacking by giving off his will---!!
Centaur: We’re united: his will is my will…!!
Henshouki: I expected this just from his name of Unicorn. But he isn’t going to attack me.

134.
Henshouki: NANCHOUJI KYOUTAIKEN: KAICHUU FUYUUTAI!!
(TN: “Kaichuu Fuyuutai” = “Air-Opposing Floating Body”)
Centaur: !!
Centaur: ……………!!
Toramaru: Kaichuu Fuyuutai~~~!?
Togashi: He did that earlier~~!! Henshouki is floating mid-air again~~~!

135.
Henshouki: Tosatsu Pinwheel: its blades rotate with wind pressure, possessing the power to tear up bone.
(TN: To tell the truth, “Tosatsu Pinwheel” or “Tosatsu Fuusha” actually has a perfect translation as the “Slaughter Pinwheel”. But considering all of the other weird weapons that isn’t that easy, I decided to keep “Tosatsu” in Japanese)
Henshouki: HA!!

136.
Centaur: Nu!!
Toramaru: The…flying Henshouki is attacking from the air without touching his foot on the ground even once!! I…don’t get it: is he a devil~~~!?

137.
Henshouki: Fu, I can end this match at once here. Even so I still want to show you the secret of Kaichuu Fuyuutai.
Centaur: Fu, I understand…………do you see it too, Unicorn, the possible true form of Kaichuu Fuyuutai?

138.
Henshouki: !!

139.
Centaur: This is the truth of your Kaichuu Fuyuutai!!
Toramaru: Wh…what~~!! Bats have fallen from the sky stuck with daggers thrown by the horse~~~!!

140.
Henshouki: The character of “hen” in Henshouki means “bat”……………!! There they are, friends!! You’ve seen my secret art!!
(TN: He’s right: the full meaning of “Henshouki” is “Devil Carried by Bats” with the “hen” standing for “bat”)
Toramaru: L…look~~~!! There are all those bats just above Henshouki~~~!

141.
Commentary:
Kaichuu Fuyuutai…it is generally known of the strength of mid-air lifting power of bats, but the Renkoku Bats, who inhabit the mountain recesses of China’s Henan Province, are said to have a lifting-power of 5kg. During the middle of the Yuan Dynasty, Toi Anjimei of the Mongolian army, who broke the disturbance of the robber Seisan, was successful at using 20 bats to overcome a long castle many thousands of miles to disturb the enemy

Kaichuu Fuyuutai came to be by using this practically and adding in various transformation techniques; it is feared through the world as a mysterious fist.
-From “Strange and Mysterious Fists of the World”, Minmei Publishing
(TN: “Renkoku Bats” or “Renkoku Koumori” = “Crooked-Swan Bats”)

Centaur: Fu……somehow I’ve overseen you as soft.
Centaur: LET’S GO!!

TN: Henshouki as a good guy...Henshouki...as...a...good...guy.........Henshouki............as...............a..................good..................guy........................

DOES NOT COMPUTE! DOES NOT COMPUTE!!! DOES NOT COMPUTE!!!!!!!!!!

Yeah, I may be overdoing it a bit, but somehow seeing Henshouki fighting for Otokojuku with no evil shadows around him (well aside the end) and acting...good...felt wrong! Even more wrong than seeing the same thing for Hien way back when he returned good! (at least Hien has grown on me, Henshouki, after all the crap he pulled on J and Raiden, will never be a good guy to me regardless and that this chapter makes me think that he was drugged or brainwashed or this is a twin like Gemini...) Though with that said, the usage of those bats was really cool, as was Centaur's manipulation of Unicorn (making him fight in his stead though he was riding him) was just classic Otokojuku stuff...as was the ludicrousness of how Togashi and Toramaru go crazy for not getting a fight! (though at least Gekkou broke the news to them this time instead of the fighter himself...it just feels wrong...so very wrong...)
