Return of the Evil Choujin

Arc 19 part 4: Tag Team Tournament

And so, the match went on in a very exciting way with Warsman and Kevin basically owning ass until the merger finally took place. The crowd was now cheering wildly waiting for a potential combo move.

Minnie just cheered along with the crowd. She found this to be thrilling. She could never really understand the strong feeling to fight against the Mask family Ares and Dad had. It never made any sense. They were both equal in many ways.

Beside, she always though the Masks were cute.

Soon enough, the two unleashed an attack that was very spectacular. Warsman whipped out his bear claws as he and Kevin linked arms, rolling like a wheel and shouting, "MAELSTROM SPECIAL!"

With that, Warsman launched Kevin at Vacuumeman as Kevin landed a fierce kick to the face, returning to the spinning wheel. Then he launched out Warsman who held out his bear claws and sent a sharp blow into the vacuum's chest.

Then Kevin rolled at Sparkler and wrapped his legs around him, continuing to spin until he slammed the man's legs hard into the mat.

Finally, the two ended the attack by sending the two into the air and delivering one of the most legendary Choujin techniques of all:

"MUSCLE DOCKING!"

That was that. Team Maelstrom had won the match and received many cheers.

Yoshigai signaled the end of the match and announced, "That's it for the first round! Now you must all rest up for the night and prepare for tomorrow, for that is when round 2 begins!"

Nathan approached Ares while leaving the area and said, "Hey, Ares, I hope that you do manage to face my father, and if you beat him, I want to fight you again. You were an honor to face and I couldn't have asked for a better opponent. I enjoyed fighting you in the Choujin Crown much more than I enjoyed facing Neil, and that says a lot since he was good enough to beat me."

Then he blinked, wondering why he'd said that and joined his friends in walking back to the hotel.

Ares just raised an eyebrow towards Nathan as the Mask came over. He actually had to agree as he wanted to teach Mask a lesson and beat him down this time. This time he was going to win.

Minnie just giggle behind her brother as she watch Nathan walk away. "Hey, he has a cute butt..." she whispered.

"What? What did you say?" spat Ares as he had this shocked and angry look on his face towards his sister.

All Minnie did was giggle and skip away to join their friends.

Arc 20: Tag Team part 2! What has come over Ares?

Well, the night passed by, and soon enough everyone had assembled to watch the next round.

Yoshigai stood up and announced, "Today's match is between Team Warhead and Team Wild Animals!"

Rocketman stood up and was facing Culedhel as his first opponent.

"Are you sure you want to go up first?" Tankman asked as Rocket nodded and said, "I didn't get to do anything last time. I deserve my moment."

Then the match began as Rocketman flew at Culedhel like a missile and slammed his head hard into his opponent's gut.

Culedhel simply grabbed onto the rocket's head, spun him around and slammed him hard into the pole. He wasn't going down that easily.

Rocketman rubbed onto his head as the crowd started to cheer.

"Rocketman opened up with a great move," Yoshigai said, "but Culedhel was able to block it with ease."

Rocketman started to fume as he blasted towards his opponent again, this time picking up the fox demon and flew high into the sky.

Then he stopped midway and shouted, "SATELLITE DROP!" speeding down towards earth and slamming Culedhel's head hard into the mat.

"Wow, that was quite a drop," Kazuo said, "Let's hope Culedhel can get up after that."

As if nothing had just happened, Culedhel vanished and reappeared behind his opponent, elbowing him in the back. Mind you, he can't teleport. He was just moving really fast.

Rocketman cringed as Culedhel stuck his blade into the rocket's back and he was in too much pain to continue at the moment.

He walked up to Tankman and said, "Alright, I can't continue this right now," and tagged his partner.

Tankman leapt into the ring with a look of determination. He was well aware of Culedhel's superior speed, so he sent out a heat seeking missile. He also set it to make it artificially smart, so Culedhel couldn't make it hit Tankman no wonder what he did. The tank had experience with this sort of thing.

Culedhel simply clutched onto the missile and smashed it under his hand. Sure, it did damage, but not very much. Culedhel then transformed his blade into a staff, running at his opponent and stuffing it into Tankman's barrel like a cork. Tankman could no longer shoot and Culedhel had once again vanished.

Tankman started to freak out, his eyes widening as he ran around in a vain effort to get the cork out. Then he remembered his tools and asked, "Is it okay to use tools for this?"

Yoshigai consulted the rules and said, "As long as you don't deliberately use them as a weapon, it's okay."

And so, Tankman pulled out a corkscrew and pried the staff out of his barrel. Then he spun it around and whacked Culedhel who had just appeared behind him.

He simply blinked and smiled saying, "I can't believe that actually worked."

The crowd had no idea whether to cheer or not as Tankman jumped onto his downed foe and sent a big blast directly into Culedhel's face.

Culedhel once again survived by some miracle and rolled Tankman off of him. With that, he kicked Tankman into the air, sent him back towards the ground and shouted, "METEOR STRIKE!" whipping out 2 katana and rolling up into a ball, slicing Tankman's body open.

Savageman felt left out as Yoshigai dinged the bell and shouted, "Team Wild Animals just won the match! Tankman has been defeated!"

And that was that. The match was over. The crowd was cheering wildly regardless to how one-sided that entire match really seemed.

Kazuo pulled out the paper and said, "The next match is between Team Mask and Team Food!"

With that, Sushiman and Karia entered the ring to receive many cheers followed by Nathan and Jonus, who of course got far more cheers.

And so, the match began. Nathan and Sushiman were the first up. Nathan ran at Sushiman who simply rolled under him and put him in a leg lock.

"What a great way to start the match!" Yoshigai shouted in excitement, "Sushiman already has the upper hand, but Nathan has pulled off many miracles before!"

This was proven true as Nathan flipped his body over and reversed the attack so he was now on Sushiman's back, pulling onto his arms while he wrapped his legs around Sushiman's chest, pulling the feet inward and dealing more pain.

Karia sighed and groaned, "Come on, anyone who beats me shouldn't be this bad."

Nathan soon stopped breaking Sushiman's parts and kicked him in the back as the audience cheered.

Sushiman couldn't help but feel insulted now. He bit his lip and ran at Nathan, kicking the boy hard in the neck. Then he held Nathan above his head and cracked the boy's back against his leg.

Nathan got up slowly and said, "Now that was impressive."

Minnie was just cheered on with the crowd as this match was just great. She had to cheer for Sushiman and Karia. Ares sat back and just studied the match to learn weaknesses.

Karia smiled when Sushiman finally started to improve. Sushiman ran at Nathan and delivered a lariat to his neck then he grasped onto the masked boy's arms and shouted, "GREAT WALL DROP!" slamming him head-first into the mat.

Nathan grimaced, his eyes starting to flash now and he held Sushiman above him and shouted, "TOWER BRIDGE!" forcing Sushiman's back against the spike on his helmet.

As Nathan continued to bend the man's back, Karia groaned and shouted, "Tag me!"

Sushiman bit his lip and spat, "No! I wanna take down Nathan by myself!"

Then he flipped over and kicked Nathan in the back followed by a knee to the same spot.

"Tag her!" shouted Minnie as she saw the strain Sushiman was in. She knew that Sushiman could do it, but this was more of a team effort this time.

Sushiman shook his head. He refused to let her upstage him again. He knew he could win.

That was until the bell sounded and issued the start of the merger as Karia entered the battle and was face-to-face with Jonus.

Jonus shouted, "METEOR FIST!" striking her hard in the chest and sending her into the ropes. As she returned, he leapt at her, put her in a very uncomfortable hold and slammed her head into the mat.

Eventually, Nathan kicked Sushiman off of him and kicked him into the rope.

Yoshigai waved his arm around and shouted, "It seems like Team Mask might just win! It was against them before, but now it's really in their favor!"

Jonus was just about to land a blow on Karia as the girl recovered from that last attack and grabbed onto Jonus, holding him closer to her and turning her nails into daggers, piercing them into the boy's flesh.

Jonus cried out in agony as she said, "Come on, Sushiman, get Nathan into position and we can make something out of this!"

Sushiman grinned, knowing exactly what she was planning as he got the upper hand on Nathan and the two shouted, "SUSHI FACTORY!" slamming the two together. Then Sushiman wrapped Nathan's arms and legs around Jonus and Karia started to make cuts in Jonus' flesh.

Then the two leapt off of the ropes and kicked both of them hard, causing major damage.

When the two couldn't seem to get up, Yoshigai dinged the bell and shouted, "Team Food wins!"

The crowd cheered wildly after that. They hadn't expected Nathan to lose to this kind of opponent. Everyone had expected a reenactment from the last tournament, but instead, Nathan had lost.

"Awesome! Way to go Sushi and Karia!" cheered out Minnie along with the crowd at the victory. It was great to see her friend make it on to the next round.

Ares on the other hand was just fuming there in his seat. How dare Nathan lose! He was glad that Sushiman had won, but he wanted to face Nathan in the future rounds. No... his eyes just seemed to flash from his normal gold color to a light red before going back to normal as he just seemed to have shallow breathing.

Kazuo pulled out the list again and said, "The next match is between Team Power and Team Nightmare!"

That said, Kiya and Chaos Woman entered the ring, eagerly awaiting their opponents.

Seadog Kid and Jr. played Rock, Paper, Scissors to determine who would go first. Jr. lost, so Seadog Kid was first to go up.

Seadog Kid was going up against Kiya in this first part. Kiya became a wolf and bounded towards Seadog Kid.

It was only mere seconds before she pinned him to the ground and forced her claws into the walrus' chest. Seadog Kid pried her off of him and threw her into the pole. Then he delivered a flying kick to her face only to have her leap at him a second time and pin him to the ground again, scratching him across the face.

"How can Seadog Kid manage now?" Yoshigai asked while Seadog Man and his wife, Katherine, entered the bleachers and shouted, "COME ON, SON, YOU CAN DO IT!"

"You'd better win!" Jr. spat, "Your parents are expecting a victory from their son!"

Seadog Kid nodded with a look of anger on his face. He didn't want to disgrace his family, so he got out of his position and flipped over his body, slamming Kiya hard into the ground shouting, "ICE ROCK DRIVER!"

The crowd cheered as he got up and tagged in Jr. saying, "I've done all I can for now. You finish the job."

But this was not so simple as Kiya also tagged in Chaos Woman and now Jr. was facing her.

Jr. simply grinned and said, "I don't like this battle field. Let's make it more to my liking."

"PHOENIX PISTOL!" he shouted as the entire ring was now covered by a fiery dome. Jr. kicked Chaos Woman in the gut, and this sent her flying into the fiery wall, burning her back.

Nobody could see what was going on in the dome, but it sounded like Chaos Woman had taken in the first blow.

Seadog Kid wiped some sweat off his forehead. All the humidity combined with his fur was taking a bit of a toll on him.

Kiya also decided to resume her human form so she had some resistance to the heat.

Chaos Woman noticed that a part of the back of her shirt had burned up. She wasn't worried about losing but rather being unclothed by this fiery dome. She knew Jr. was no rapist, but think of the attention she'd get if she had lost her clothes.

She shook off the pain in her back and elbowed Jr. in the gut. Then she threw him into the air, causing his back to push up against the top of the dome.

As he fell, she grabbed onto him and shouted, "CHAOS DROP!" sending him hard into the mat.

Jr. got up and kicked her up against the wall of the dome. As she screamed in pain, Jr. grabbed her and threw her to the other side of the dome.

Chaos Woman screamed in pain as her clothes had resorted to nothing but a small tube top that just barely covered the spot she needed covered.

Feeling like she really was in danger here, she quickly ran over to Kiya, knocking Jr. to the ground and tagged in her partner shouting, "Take care of that jerk!"

Seadog Kid cheered, knowing that Jr. was doing a good job as Kiya resumed her wolf form and shouted, "WOLF BARREL!" forcing her claws into his chest.

Jr. simply pried the claws out of his chest and threw her up against the wall. Then he kneed her in the chest and sent her back to the wall.

Kiya cried out in pain as Kazuo announced, "Although we have no idea what's going on, the merger must start if someone from a team hasn't been defeated yet!"

The crowd had to admit that they were very nervous. They couldn't tell who was winning with this dome in front of them.

But Neil had the special senses of a wolf. In a way, he could tell what was going on without seeing it. Werewolf was also in the audience, and his senses were stronger for he was a pure wolf.

While all this went on, Neil could almost imagine for himself what was happening.

Seadog Kid entered the ring, relieved to be farther away from the walls of the dome while Chaos Woman joined her partner and said, "Make sure I don't get burned again."

Kiya nodded as Chaos Woman grabbed onto her partner and threw her body towards Jr. shouting, "WOLF MISSILE!" sending Kiya's claws hard into Jr.'s chest, sending the boy into the wall of the dome.

Seadog Kid knew that his parents wouldn't want him losing, so he ran at the two and hooked them in the neck, knocking them to the ground.

But the two girls recovered very quickly and dragged him down with them, pulling on his arms and planting their feet against his back.

Just as Jr. ran in to help his friend, they stopped tormenting Seadog Kid and delivered a double kick to Jr.'s chest.

"THAT'S IT!" Jr. shouted as he pulled a strand of fire on the wall in the form of a whip. He then went on to whip both of his opponents.

Chaos Woman grabbed onto the whip, ignoring the pain induced by it and shouted, "THAT'S IT! I'VE HAD IT WITH YOU AND ABUSING WOMEN THIS WAY! I KNOW YOU AREN'T TRYING TO BE PERVERTED, BUT THIS KIND OF THING COULD..."

But before she could finish, she realized that the first couple of cracks from the whip had actually burned up the rest of her shirt. Seadog Kid got back up to his feet only to be left spellbound at the sight of this.

Kiya and Chaos Woman were both fuming as they bounded towards Jr. and shouted, "CHAOS BARREL!" sending a very powerful blow the boy's chest, knocking him unconscious.

It was then that the dome let out and Seadog Kid fled from the ring in horror. Chaos Woman angrily covered up her upper body as Kiya escorted her out of the ring.

Yoshigai saw that Seadog Kid had given up and Jr. was unconscious first, so he dinged the bell and shouted, "TEAM NIGHTMARE WINS!"

Seadog Man laughed at this while Katherine said, "Our boy is so nice, not violating that poor woman. I'm so proud of him even though he lost.

When Jr. returned to his seat, he said not a word. He was left spellbound by what he had seen in that ring and Culedhel felt very disappointed in him.

Kazuo pulled out the list once again and said, "The next match is between Team Mountains and Team Couple."

And so, the two teams entered the ring and took a fighting stance.

Dratwood was up first again, this time against Jacks. Jacks ran at Dratwood and kicked him hard in the chest. Then he wrapped his legs around Dratwood's head and slammed him to the ground.

The crowd and his family cheered for this early lead until Dratwood pried the man's legs off of him and shouted, "WRATH OF THE FOREST!" flipping the man hard into the mat.

"Well, this has been an interesting start," Kazuo said, "It looked good for Jacks until Dratwood turned things around."

Jacks got up from the attack and shouted, "CYCLONE KICK!" sending Dratwood into the air and then leaping up at him, wrapped his legs around his opponent and shouted, "METEOR DROP!" slamming Dratwood hard into the mat.

Dratwood got up to see King Stone shaking his head at him. He grimaced and kicked Jacks hard in the legs. Then he held Jacks above his head, threw him against the pole and landed a powerful blow to the man's chest.

Then he walked over to King Stone and said, "You take over," as King Stone tagged him and accepted the challenge.

Jacks felt shaken up by that sudden burst of power, so he tagged in his wife who ran at King Stone and shouted, "COMET PUNCH!" sending a large flaming punch to the man's chest.

King Stone had to admit, he was shocked. These two were very powerful. He actually had to admit that Dratwood's short comeback against one of these people was impressive. Yet he wasn't going to lose this easily.

He ran at Zelda who easily got behind him and shouted, "GRAVITY PULL!" stretching his arms up.

King Stone grimaced while this happened and threw the woman into the ropes. Then as she returned, he body checked her and held her over his head, bending her back a little and spinning around.

With that, he leapt into the air, still spinning and slammed her hard into the mat shouting, "WRATH OF THE MOUNTAINS!"

The crowd cheered as Yoshigai shouted, "Zelda just took in King Stone's most powerful attack! Can she get up?"

The crowd cheered even louder, this time for Zelda when the woman struggled to her feet and delivered a hard kick to the man's chin.

King Stone rubbed his chin as Yoshigai said, "It's now time for the merger!" and Jacks joined the battle.

Zelda grinned and said, "Now you're in trouble," while Dratwood joined his friend and said, "Come on, let's finish them like we finished off those last two."

With that, King Stone delivered a kick to Zelda's gut knocking her to the ground as Dratwood held Jacks over his head and started to bend his back.

Then King Stone leapt into the air and started spinning while ramming his foot hard into Jacks' back causing him to cough up blood while the duo shouted, "WRATH OF THE FOREST!"

Kazuo's wig almost fell off as he shouted, "Did you see that? They took down Jacks! How can Zelda beat them now?"

Zelda got up and saw her husband lying on the ground and grimaced. The fury that went through her was grand. Sure, she could deal with her husband losing, but not when the loss was this painful.

She held up her fists as they were shrouded in a purple flame. Then she landed two hard blows on her opponents shouting, "ASTEROID FISTS!"

And that was that. Dratwood and King Stone were down as Yoshigai shouted, "TEAM COUPLE WINS!"

"Cool!" cheered out Minnie as she watch Jack and Zelda just make their win, almost losing this round, "Come on, we are up!"

Ares just sighed as Minnie started to drag him towards the ring slowly for their match.

Finally, it was time for another match that people had anticipated from the beginning. Yoshigai pulled out the list and announced, "This next match is between Team Glory and Team Scarface!"

Neil and Jasmine approached the ring to receive many cheers as Minnie and Ares also received the same number of cheers. Both team captains were highly respected since the Choujin Crown, so seeing Neil and Ares at least facing each other in some way was a treat for the crowd.

Molly, Josh and Kara cheered for Minnie and Ares while Dorykid, Nathan, Jonus, Rosaline, Kat and Fernando did all they could to support Neil and Jasmine. There was also Neil's family that had come all this way to see him. Werewolf was just so proud to see Neil receiving so much support and both his mothers held up signs of support while all the wolves in his family howled into the sky.

"Whoa...he brought his whole...family with him," said Minnie as she struggled out a giggle.

"Doesn't matter, they aren't the ones fighting," responded Ares as he just glanced down towards Minnie, "I'm going first this time."

"Ok..." she said, as she didn't have a choice in the matter as Ares jumped into ring for the match.

Neil entered the ring as the starting bell rang. The tension grew as Neil and Ares had been a highly anticipated match. Sure, Jasmine and Minnie would have been exciting too, but Jasmine wasn't necessarily famous and Minnie was a newcomer.

Neil ran at Ares with blinding speed and knocked him to the ground. Then he started to bend his legs.

Ares just growled a bit as he just tried to wiggle his way out of the hold. Reaching out, he grabbed a hold of Neil and threw him off and launched a kick right towards the mid-section.

As Neil fell to the ground, the audience started to cheer for Ares. Molly jumped up and down excitedly while Josh gave him thumbs up. Kara just clapped and found herself actually excited by the thrill of it all.

One second, Ares was getting his ass handed to him, then he managed to pull out of it. This was the joy of wrestling. There was almost no such thing as a one-sided match because everyone was so strong and skilled.

Neil got up and said, "Alright, I gotta avoid being murdered by this guy."

And so he ran at Ares and flipped him over, putting him in a leg lock as he got the crowd's support again.

Upon seeing this, Dorykid, Nathan, Rosaline and Jonus got together and started to dance around singing, "Go, go, Neil! Show him who's boss! Neil is the man, he should be champ!"

Fernando yawned as the four were clocked over the head by random audience members.
