Chapter 21 - Hot competition! (3)

The 2 fighters are at a stand still, just standing there.

Wilfred broke the silence and clenched his fist while also shifting into an attacking stance.

"Ive damaged him enough that he could barely ro-(coughs up blood*) bleghhh.... Roll. At most... He could use his so-sonido, even then... It's a big step with his injuries still present."

He charges at Thorfyll, ready to deliver a blow to end the match with his right fist. He throws the punch but it was quickly dodged by Throfyll and stuck up both of arms to his stomach, impaling his organs which is causing even more bleeding.

Wilfred grunts in pain.

"NGGGGHHHHH GODDAMMNIT RAGGGGHHHHHH!!!!"

To equal the balance of the fight. Wilfred punches Thorfyll's throat, causing his trachea to collapse and made it harder for him to breathe. Wilfred also punched Thorfyll's chest 5x with extreme force, breaking his ribcage and its parts pierced both of his lungs.

Despite the fact that Thorfyll couldn't breathe, he doesn't let up and instead takes out his claws from Wilfred's guts and sliced the lowerside of mask, revealing his throat and then he cuts it, making it harder for him to breathe.

The fight has become incredibly bloody and tedious for them while the audience keeps on cheering on their desired fighter.

"WILFRED! WILFRED! WILFRED!- THORFYLL! THORFYLL! THORFYLL!"

Wilfred starts to punch Thorfyll's body everywhere of which that he thinks that would hurt him. His chest, stomach, neck, head. But Thorfyll still refuses to give up and drives his claw to his throat, causing even more bleeding than before.

Wilfred clenches his right fist and says.

"(Throws up alot of blood*) EUghhhhKkkk.... Y-you consistent bastard.... You've held tight for so damn LONG!!! But I'm gonna e-end it now..."

He raised his right fist and slammed down on Thorfyll's head with every strength he had left. Thorfyll lays down on the ground while still holding on to Wilfred's organs, causing him pain despite finally being unconscious.

The bell rings.

DING!

The referee shouts.

"WILFRED ARCHAMBEAU IS THE WINNER!"

The audience goes wild.

The 5 medics rushed out of the staff door while one of them carries the machine to heal both of them.

After 2 minutes, Thorfyll was revived in the arena, and so he sat up quickly. He turned to the right to see Wilfred with his Resurreccion gone, is awake and is also being healed. Thorfyll was irritated yet also felt somewhat alright with his loss, speaks.

"Damn.... I lost the fight? oh well, it's better than being a Sargento am I right?"

Wilfred, happy with his coping, says playfully.

"Yeah... But you got the title of the weakest Comandante, HaHa! After we recover, wanna hit the bar that just newly opened nearby?"

"Sure. Why not."

"Losers pay!"

"Screw off."

We cut to Guerra inside his box, writing down on a piece of paper. Giving Wilfred the rank of the 3rd Comandante and making Thorfyll the 4th in terms of strength and rank.

The audience waits for the fight of the winners of the competition.

Ignacio vs François Archembeau.

Both fighters come out from their doors and into the arena.

François takes a look at Ignacio and his eyes widened, PTSD kicked in, he begins to see flashes of the Vasto Lorde that he lost to.

"(Slaps himself*) Keep it together now...."

Ignacio looks at him confused.

"You... alright?"

Even though his traumatic defeat still hasn't healed, his will prevails.

"Yeah, Yeah... I'm fine."

The bell rings.

DING!

And the match of the winners starts.

Ignacio starts off by rushing towards François, readying his fist to take him out in one blow to end the match. François was ready to counter but he still remembers his defeat against the Vasto Lorde, so he hesitated and Ignacio was able to deal a strong punch, a side chop and a powerful uppercut all in his face, sending him flying and hitting the ground hard.

François stood up and dusted himself and wiped the blood in his face.

"(Wipes blood from his mouth*) I gotta stop thinking about it."

Before François could even realize it, Ignacio was already up in his face and delivers a left hook to his face and punched his stomach 5x in just 1 second, forcing François to puke out blood.

Ignacio speaks up with disappointment about François' performance.

"You weak sub hollow.... Is that all you can do?"

François remembers the word "sub hollow" from his fight with the Vasto Lorde and left him in a traumatized state of mind, which left him open for attacks. Ignacio didn't waste any time and immediately started beating him up. He slashed his chest horizontally with a chop, a kick to the stomach and a knee to stomach, forcing more blood out from the stomach.

Ignacio kept jabbing François' face while both stand up, he then punched François' throat with immense force, making it hard for him to breathe. François stumbles backwards and touches his throat, trying to fix it somehow but fails in the end.

Not letting the opportunity go to waste, Ignacio instantly grabs François' left arm and pulls it, disarming him and causing severe bleeding. François screams in pain but it didn't last long, as Ignacio slams his head to the ground.

Seeing François laying down weakened and open in the ground, Ignacio starts beating him up in the ground by elbowing, punching, kicking and kneeing him.

François thought to himself as he gets beat up.

"I've fought endlessly in this damned World... I've won every fight aside from my encounter with that hollow.... And now this fight too? Is my luck that bad when it comes to Vasto Lordes?.... Can't I fight someone that's stronger? Am I just forever stuck as a secondary consumer in the food chain?...

But... Who said I'm gonna let that stand.....

I don't wanna just keep remembering bad memories.... I wanna forget them by shaping my present...."

The audience watches in mild shock as they see Ignacio brutally beats up François who is simply laying down and doing nothing. One in the audience shouts out.

"Do something ref!"

As the referee is about to end the fight. Suddenly, as Ignacio was about to deal the final blow to knockout François, he catches Ignacio's fist and headbutts his face, sending him to take a step back from him.

The blood soaked François gets up slowly while shaking a bit.

Ignacio is pleased that François finally decided to take the match seriously.

"You've finally decided to focus at the match at hand instead of daydreaming!"

François uses his sonido and appeared before Ignacio then gave strong punch only to be blocked by him with his forearms which sent him backwards.

Ignacio lowers his arms while François responds to his earlier statement.

"Yes... I was daydreaming, on how to kick your ass, and I've found the perfectsolution of doing it..."

He touches his mask and starts taking it off.

Knowing what will happen, Ignacio rushes in to stop François, but it's too late.

An explosion of reiatsu emerges in the arena.

The dust clears and we see François in a humanoid form.
