Suguru: Ge—
Announcer: A…another face has appeared--!!
Terry: Th…that’s…

121.
Sneagator: The hell until now was merely the book’s prologue!! Now you’ll know the true terror of the Devil Knights.
Suguru: WHAT
Meat: Prince—you should run, you’re not prepared for him—
Suguru: We—ll, I won’t run!!
Suguru: Ge!
Suguru: He…shed his skin…
Meat: Above you prince!!

122.
Sneagator: KUWAKAKA~~~~!!
Announcer: From within the gator skin, Sneagator has turned into a turtle---!!
Announcer: And there’s a Strong Body Press----!!
Sneagator: Kekeke—I can freely make my body evolve. By shedding my body’s skin, I can change my form to all reptiles. I’m the Shedding Choujin--!!

123.
Sneagator: There---!!
Announcer: An incredible attack by Sneagator--!!
Choujin: Hie! Wa!
Meat: Prince—you’ve got to dodge these attacks. I’ve learned that the hits you take will quickly destroy the Justice Choujin!
Suguru: Th…that’s right. My body is not mine alone. If I don’t do this with everyone’s expectations…!!

124.
Suguru: O—K, Muscle Curtain!!
Announcer: Kinnikuman defeands Sneagator’s attacks with the Muscle Curtain, handed down to him by generations of the Kinniku Clan—
Suguru: Uo—
Meat: Prince—a turtle’s weakness is coming back from being turned over!!
Suguru: Well then, Ant Kick!!
Suguru: I got it--!!

125.
Suguru: Wha!?
Sneagator: Sha—
Announcer: Sneagator escapes by abandoning his shell and becoming a snake!!
Suguru: No you won’t—
Suguru: He…shedded again.
Sneagator: Fufufufu

126.
Sneagator: I’m here, Kinnikuman.
Suguru: Ge, he became a lizard this time!!
Sneagator: And further, I’m a frilled lizard, the most terrible of all lizards.
Sneagator: Take this--!!
Suguru: Gyaa—

127.
Announcer: Sneagator’s launched a powerful attack using his frills--!!
Canadian: Te…Terry, at this rate, it’s a matter of time before our life support systems get cracked too.
Terry: Believe in Kinnikuman without saying that, Canadianman.
Sneagator: It’s over!!
Announcer: Kinnikuman’s in a pinch---!!
Meat: Prince---!!

128.
Suguru: I…I see it!!
Suguru: Your weakness
Sneagator: Ge, where did you go to………!!
Suguru: Sneagator, from the way your big frills are spinning in back, your problem
Suguru: Is you can’t see well from behind!
Sneagator: Ge

129.
Suguru: This is your end---!!
Sneagator: Gyaaa---!!
Announcer: Kinnikuman has ripped off his frills—

130.
Sneagator: Fufufu~~~

Suguru: He he…transformed again!
Announcer: Sneagator has disappeared--!!

131.
Suguru: Where did you go----!!
Announcer: With his body spinning, Kinnikuman is getting hit with bloody wounds spreading through his surface of his body--!!
Suguru: I, I found you there—
Sneagator: Wa…wait!!
Suguru: You…you can’t run and hide anymore!

132.
Sneagator: This is perhaps my final transformation!
Announcer: Sneagator has transformed into a massive sneaker—
Suguru: U—m, I expected this, Devil Knight. This sportsman manner is nothing but a carp on a chopping board by becoming a sneaker in the ring! Whatever happens, I can cook you however I like.
Suguru: O—K, so then, let’s get cooking!
Meat: Aah…
Meat: Pr…Prince! Don’t undo the laces--!!

133.
Meat: That’s his Hell Seal--!!
Suguru: What!?
Suguru: Ge
Suguru: UWA---!!
Announcer: From within the massive sneaker, a foot of a dinosaur, the king of reptiles, has flown out---!!

CHOUJIN DEADLY-TECHNIQUES SERIES
7. Kinniku Buster
Suguru: What!? You want me to explain my technique!? Guarantee!? Wh…what, no guarantee!? Hey, modern society isn’t kind!! However, I’ll explain it a bit. But my neck and crotch hurt! That’s all!!

Caption: The Kinniku Buster, one of the 48 Killer Techniques first seen in the fight against Warsman.

Kinniku Buster Instructions:
1. First put your opponent under your arms.
2. From just that, jump really high.
3. While falling, pull down both arms.

TN: You know it's strange: all Suguru had to do was avoid unlacing the sneaker and he wouldn't be in this scenario! I mean, considering Sneagator is a giant foot, he would have remained shoe-horned and it would have been an easy victory...but we wouldn't want that, would we? (unless somehow he had to fight the sneaker until the laces came off regardless) Anyway, Sneagator's shedding and transforming ability is just extremely cool, considering that each form give him various advantages compared to the others! Of course, considering that now he's in his bizarre but powerful final form (and yes...he has a face), who knows how much longer this match will last! Oh and BTW: more new Choujin potential this time...you'll be seeing some of these soon enough.
