[00:00] MC
    The winner is Rick Gladiatol!
SIGN    The Ossan Newbie Adventurer,
    Trained to Death by the Most Powerful Party,
    Became Invincible
[00:09] crowd; man
    He beat Geith!
[00:11] crowd; man 2
    That old dude is amazing!
[00:14] Angelica
    Rick!
[00:16] Angelica
    Truly, thank you so very much!
[00:20] Rick
    I haven't done anything worth thanking.
    I just won my bout, that's all.
[00:26] Angelica
    I'll show you that I can
     reach that level in a year.
[00:31] Angelica
    And, one day, I'll catch up to you too!
[00:36] MC
    Everyone, give Rick Gladiatol
    a huge round of applause!
[00:46] Angelica
    You're very calm.
[00:48] Snape
    Yes, I am. I'm surprised myself.
[00:52] Snape
    But perhaps I've wanted
    to see Geith be denied.
[00:58] Angelica
    What do you mean?
[01:00] Snape
    To see Geith, who shattered my life as
    a pugilist with his talent, denied.
[01:07] Snape
    I have lost quite a lot, but,
     to be honest, I don't feel too bad.
[01:13] Alicerette
    He's talking about complicated
    things, isn't he?
[01:15] Mizett
    Isn't he? You see, grown-ups have
    to deal with all sorts of things.
[01:18] Snape
    Though it is unfortunate
    that you won't be my wife.
[01:22] Angelica
    You don't know when to give up.
[01:24] Angelica
    Now that you can't gather the
    money to fulfill the contract,
[01:27] Angelica
    it's like the talk of
    betrothal never happened.
[01:29] Angelica
    What a shame that you weren't able
    to join the ranks of the nobility.
[01:34] Snape
    Indeed.
[01:35] Snape
    To welcome a lady as lovely as
    you as my wife, Angelica-san...
[01:40] Snape
    I was looking forward to that
    from the bottom of my heart.
[01:43] Angelica
    What?
[01:44] Snape
    It is quite a shame indeed.

SIGN    The Strongest Pugilist in History
[01:50] Daniel
    How are you feeling?
[01:53] Kelvin
    I couldn't possibly feel any better.
[01:55] Daniel
    You're a great pugilist.
[01:59] Kelvin
    Where's this coming from? Did you
    eat something weird or something?
[02:03] Daniel
    So don't worry about anything.
     Just go give it everything you've got.
[02:10] MC
    And now, the second match
    of the semi-finals!
[02:13] MC
    The man who KO'd every opponent with
    one hit, Broughston Ashorc, versus...
[02:18] MC
    the three-time champion, Kelvin Wolwolf!
[02:24] Angelica
    That's an incredible amount of cheering.
[02:26] Rick
    That's a champion for you!
[02:28] Reanette
    Welcome back.
[02:32] Kelvin; internal
    This guy really is incredible.
[02:35] Kelvin; internal
    He's just standing there,
    but there isn't a single opening.
[02:39] MC
    And now, combatants, fight!
[02:42] Kelvin
    First, let's try a few things out!
[02:51] Crowd
    Whoa! Amazing!
[02:53] Kelvin
    I'd expect no less of you, Broughston.
[02:55] Kelvin
    You are, without a doubt,
     the strongest opponent I've ever faced!
[02:59] Broughston
    I'm honored.
[03:02] Rick; Angelica
    What?!
[03:09] Rick
    Geith?!
[03:18] Snape
    Have the effects of the Dragon Ricorgen
    caused his dragon blood to run rampant?
[03:29] Kelvin
    Hey, you!
[03:33] Kelvin
    We're in the middle of a match.
    What do you think you're doing?
[03:42] Kelvin
    Huh. That was a heftier
    punch than I'd imagined.
[03:45] Kelvin
    Not bad. But...
[03:51] Kelvin
    It's not good to interfere in a match.
[03:53] Angelica
    He knocked Geith out with one punch?
[03:56] Rick
    The feeling I got was that Geith's
    strength is that of a top-tier A-rank.
[03:59] Reanette
    Yes. The champion may have
    already stepped foot...
[04:04] Reanette
    into the realm of S-rank.
[04:06] MC
    Everyone, our deepest apologies!
[04:09] MC
    That incident has caused
    a number of injuries!
[04:12] MC
    To prioritize response and treatment,
    we are rescheduling the match for tomorrow!
[04:18] Kelvin
    What? Well, I guess there's no other choice.
[04:21] Kelvin
    I feel like things were
    going well for me back there.
[04:23] Broughston
    Do you think so? I see
    uncertainty in your strikes.
[04:33] Mizett
    The only objective we have is the Six Jewels.
     Don't let this get you down.
[04:38] Alicerette
    Broughs-kun or Rikkun
    just need to win, right?
[04:44] Angelica
    Speaking of which, where is Rick?
[04:46] Reanette
    He's gone out jogging... to
    the Claristia territory.
[04:51] Angelica
    It's 700 kilometers there and back.
[04:54] Reanette
    Yes. At this moment, he should
    be near the kingdom's borders.
[04:57] Angelica
    I'm not surprised by anything anymore.
[05:07] Rick
    That mountain...
[05:12] Rick
    reminds me of Reanette.
[05:20] Rick
    Doing some training?
[05:22] Rick
    Sorry to just pop out of nowhere.
    I heard a lot of noise.
[05:26] Kelvin
    You, huh?
[05:28] Kelvin
    And this used to be the perfect place,
    where no one bothered me.
[05:34] Rick
    The match is tomorrow. Aren't you
    worried about overworking your body?
[05:38] Kelvin
    Well, it got postponed.
    This is perfect.
[05:42] Kelvin
    How about you be my sparring
    partner for a bit?
[05:46] Kelvin
    I've got all this excess energy, you see?
[05:49] Rick
    Well, I guess I've got to help, then!
[05:53] Rick
    So this is Future Scenting?
[05:55] Rick
    All right. Let's do what we always do!
[06:02] Kelvin; internal
    He's so fast!
[06:04] Rick
    It really is strange.
[06:06] Rick
    If you can dodge this, why did you get
    hit like that back in the tournament?
[06:11] Rick
    Could it be...
[06:12] Kelvin
    Huh?
[06:13] Rick
    Was your nose stuffed up or something?
[06:15] Kelvin
    No, it wasn't!
[06:17] Kelvin
    But you have good instincts.
[06:20] Kelvin
    With how strong you are,
    you might understand.
[06:26] Kelvin
    I grew up in the slums, and fighting was
    the thing I looked forward to the most,
[06:30] Kelvin
    but at some point, there wasn't anything
    I could call a fight anymore.
[06:35] Kelvin
    After I came to Heractopia,
    things were good, at first.
[06:40] MC; male
    In the 107th tournament, a new champion,
    Kelvin Wolwolf, has been born!
[06:47] Kelvin; internal
    This is bad.
[06:49] Kelvin; internal
    This is just me winning over and over again.
[06:53] (Flashback) Daniel
    Good. Good.
[06:57] MC; male
    In the 108th King of Fists Tournament,
[07:00] MC; male
    Kelvin Wolwolf succeeds in
    winning his second tournament in a row!
[07:03] MC; male
    And what's more, in every match, he KO'd his
    opponents with a single blow in under a minute!
[07:09] Kelvin; internal
    It ended up being the same here too.
[07:12] Kelvin; internal
    Still...
[07:14] Kelvin; internal
    if the owner's happy for me,
    then maybe it's not so bad.
[07:19] Kelvin
    Even in the arena fights,
     I couldn't get that rush anymore.
[07:24] Kelvin
    Getting stronger was the only
    thing left to look forward to.
[07:27] Kelvin
    so I threw all my heart into training.
[07:32] (Flashback) Daniel
    Lately, the crowds at the
    matches haven't been good.
[07:35] (Flashback) clerk
    Well, when every match ends with a
    one-punch KO, you get tired of it.
[07:40] (Flashback) Daniel
    So what are we supposed to do, huh?
[07:43] (Flashback) Daniel
    Are you saying you want to make
    Kelvin throw some fights?
[07:46] (Flashback) clerk
    I would never say that!
[07:49] (Flashback) clerk
    But this could lead to a reduced interest
    in fighting matches in general.
[07:55] (Flashback) clerk
    If that happens, then our gym will—
[07:57] (Flashback) Daniel
    If it happens, it happens.
    It doesn't bother me.
[08:00] MC; male
    The 109th King of Fists Tournament
    reaches the finals at last!
[08:05] Kelvin; internal
    If it causes problems for the owner,
    I don't need to stay champion. But...
[08:13] Kelvin; internal
    He's so slow.
[08:14] Kelvin; internal
    I could still dodge it.
[08:16] Kelvin; internal
    No, that's right. I shouldn't dodge here.
[08:20] (Flashback) Daniel
    Kelvin!
[08:25] MC; male
    What's this?! Kelvin Wolwolf is down!
[08:29] Kelvin; internal
    They sure are having fun.
[08:31] Kelvin; internal
    That's right. This is for the best.
[08:33] (Flashback) opponent
    Yeah!
[08:34] MC; male
    The champion can be beaten!
[08:37] MC; male
    The undefeated champion has
    been beaten in a huge upset!
[08:41] Kelvin
    From the next tournament onward, I played
    a fighter with good days and bad days.
[08:46] Kelvin
    I tailored it so that the crowds would love
    the matches and still won three times in a row.
[08:52] Kelvin
    And that's why I can't take a fight seriously.
[08:57] Kelvin
    If I fight so that the matches
    are exciting, they draw crowds.
[09:01] Kelvin
    And the gym prospers, too.
[09:04] Kelvin
    You may think the whole situation
    is ridiculous, though.
[09:09] Rick
    The strongest really do have it tough.
[09:11] Kelvin
    Huh? You're one to talk.
[09:14] Rick
    But I don't think you'll be able
    to talk like that after tomorrow.
[09:19] Rick
    I'm being serious here.
[09:22] Kelvin
    Were you even listening to me?
[09:24] Rick
    I think it'll probably be fine! Bye, then!

[09:43] MC
    Sorry to keep you waiting!
[09:45] MC
    The second semi-final match which was
    postponed yesterday will now restart!
[09:47] Milicia
    Broughston-sama!
[09:49] Gold
    Yeah!
[09:52] MC
    Today, for safety reasons, defensive magic
    has been cast over the spectators seating.
[09:58] MC
    Everyone, please watch the
    fight without any worry!
[10:01] Kelvin
    Well, we get a fresh start.
    Let's have some fun.
[10:05] MC
    And now, combatants, fight!
[10:12] Kelvin
    Take this!
[10:15] Kelvin
    Rolling Fang!
[10:22] Angelica
    He rotated his arm at high speed
    to increase the force of the blow.
[10:24] Angelica
    That will blow a person's guard aside, too!
[10:26] Rick
    If it can knock senpai's hand away,
     it must be really powerful!
[10:29] Kelvin
    This is it!
[10:32] Kelvin; internal
    No, this is...
[10:38] Kelvin
    You're a beast.
[10:40] Broughston
    Though you say that, you are
    unchanged from yesterday.
[10:44] Broughston
    I might even say that you are
    slacking in your fighting.
[10:48] Kelvin
    Did that guy say something?
[10:50] Broughston
    I had heard that the champion
    is a professional pugilist.
[10:54] Broughston
    I see.
[10:56] Broughston
    For the sake of the
    spectators gathered here,
[10:59] Broughston
    you must intentionally limit
    your strength as you fight.
[11:03] Kelvin
    Your assessment is largely correct.
[11:06] crowd
    What is that?
[11:07] crowd 2
    What are they talking about?
[11:11] Kelvin
    Your strength is the real thing.
[11:13] Kelvin
    And that's why if I fight seriously here,
    everything I've done until now will get exposed.
[11:18] Broughston
    I see. I understand the general gist.
[11:21] Kelvin
    A pro that deceives the fans?
    Makes you sick to hear it, right?
[11:26] Broughston
    No. You are putting the
    spectators ahead of yourself.
[11:30] Broughston
    One might say that that is
    how all pros should behave.
[11:33] Broughston
    Though it is unfortunate that I will not
    be able to fight you at full strength.
[11:37] Kelvin
    Sorry. Thanks for understanding.
[11:41] Broughston
    In which case, I shall answer
    with appropriate strength.
[11:45] Broughston
    I will fight using just these two fingers.
[11:49] Kelvin
    What did you say?
[11:51] Broughston
    And I shall not move one
    step from this spot.
[11:55] Broughston
    This should allow for us to
    have a reasonably good match.
[11:59] Kelvin
    Well, it's not like I can tell you
    to quit messing around, right?
[12:03] Kelvin
    That works for me!
[12:07] Kelvin; internal
    He's seriously blocking me!
[12:09] Kelvin
    Rolling Fang!
[12:12] Kelvin
    What?!
[12:20] Kelvin
    He's planning to pressure me just enough
    that it looks like a good fight, huh?
[12:24] Alicerette
    Broughs-kun is doing some interesting stuff.
[12:27] Mizett
    Yeah. He's proper clever, y'know?
[12:32] crowd
    Kelvin! Kelvin! Kelvin!
[12:38] Kelvin; internal
    If we were fighting for real,
    this would be even more fun, wouldn't it?
[12:42] Kelvin; internal
    Giving up the chance to have it
    out with a guy this strong...
[12:46] Kelvin; internal
    I wish it was different.
[12:48] Kelvin; internal
    I have a ton of things I want
    to test out in a fight.
[12:54] Daniel
    You moron!
[12:59] Daniel
    I can see right through you, Kelvin!
[13:03] Daniel
    You're only pretending to fight for real!
    Did you really think I'd miss that?
[13:09] Daniel
    What is it that you misunderstood?
    Why are you fighting?
[13:14] Kelvin
    I just wanted you to...
[13:16] Daniel
    My dream is to train up the
    strongest pugilist in history!
[13:21] Daniel
    I've staked my whole life on that dream!
[13:24] Daniel
    I want you to become the
    strongest, Kelvin Wolwolf!
[13:34] Kelvin
    Are you sure? Is it really all right?
[13:39] Daniel
    My dream and what you want
    to do are the same thing.
[13:43] Daniel
    You should do what you want to do.
[13:48] Kelvin
    You're really not cut out for business.
[13:51] Kelvin
    In that case...
[13:54] Kelvin
    I'm gonna fight to my heart's content!
[13:59] Kelvin
    This is crazy. I'm so happy, it's amazing.
[14:03] Kelvin
    I can't believe I can fight for real!
[14:06] Broughston
    So there is no need for acting anymore?
[14:09] Kelvin
    That's right! Sorry to keep you waiting.
[14:12] Kelvin
    Starting now, I'm going all out.
[14:22] Kelvin
    You're using all five fingers there.
[14:24] Kelvin
    Was that by accident?
[14:27] Broughston
    No. I merely blocked using
    the appropriate strength.
[14:37] Kelvin
    Rolling Fang!
[14:42] Kelvin
    You're wide open!
[14:48] Kelvin
    Iron Body!
[14:55] Broughston
    Oh. That's magnificent.
[14:57] Kelvin
    Broughston, you're the best!
[15:00] crowd
    This is too incredible.
[15:02] crowd 2
    It's on a completely different
    level from battles up to now.
[15:04] crowd 3
    Which means...
[15:06] crowd 4
    He's been slacking up to now?
[15:07] crowd 5; female
    He's been tricking us!
[15:09] crowd 6
    What? That's not how a
    champion should behave!
[15:10] crowd 7
    What a letdown.
[15:13] Kelvin; internal
    I can't go back now.
[15:16] Kelvin; internal
    So I'll take this all the way.
[15:18] Kelvin
    Surge, O ruined fires of justice,
[15:21] Kelvin
    burn the dam to ashes.
[15:24] Kelvin
    Level-Five Nature Composed Magic...
[15:27] Kelvin
    Flame Wave!
[15:29] Angelica
    The dog peoples aren't supposed to be
    very good with nature composed magic!
[15:34] Rick
    He must have trained for years,
     pushing himself beyond his limits!
[15:38] Rick
    The physique he was blessed with,
    the talent he was born with...
[15:41] Rick
    the strength and techniques he's honed...
[15:44] Rick
    He's on the same level as my
    senpais... a true prodigy!
[15:55] gym member A
    Has Kelvin always been able
    to use magic like that?
[15:57] Daniel; internal
    I didn't know about this either.
[16:09] Kelvin
    Flickering Feet!
[16:11] Kelvin
    Forceful Fist!
[16:13] Kelvin
    Lay hold, O denizens of the darkest green,
[16:15] Kelvin
    lure travelers into its depths,
[16:17] Kelvin
    and listen to the pulse of the forest!
[16:22] Kelvin
    Level-Seven Nature Composed Magic...
[16:24] Kelvin
    Forest Rope!
[16:27] Angelica
    Now that's a champion!
[16:29] Rick
    This is... not good!
[16:32] Angelica
    What?
[16:33] Kelvin
    Lance down, Dubhe,
     sacred messenger of good fortune.
[16:37] Kelvin
    Pierce the earth,
     defiled by the works of humans.
[16:39] Kelvin
    Carve that sorrow into the land!
[16:42] Mizett
    Hey, he's not half bad!
[16:43] Alicerette
    Right?
[16:45] Reanette
    Indeed.
[16:45] Kelvin
    Level-Eight Nature Composed Magic...
[16:47] Anglica
    Eight?!
[16:51] gym member A
    Hey now...
[16:52] gym member B
    What is that?!
[16:55] Kelvin
    Angel's Tear!
[16:58] crowd
    Are you serious?
[16:59] crowd 2
    What is all this?
[17:00] crowd 3
    We should run, right?
[17:05] Rick
    Oh, this is bad. This is
    legitimately really bad!
[17:10] Angelica
    It is quite shocking, but this isn't like you!
[17:14] Rick
    How can I not be scared?!
[17:16] Rick
    The champion is far stronger
    than I'd imagined!
[17:19] Rick
    That means that senpai will also...
[17:21] Rick
    stop holding back!
[17:25] Broughston
    Yes. It shouldn't be a
    problem for you, I think.
[17:48] Angelica
    That was Level-Eight Nature Composed
    Magic... and he used brute strength?
[17:51] Broughston
    Your convictions, wanting to fight to
    the absolute limits of your strength...
[17:56] Broughston
    They have reached me in full.
[17:59] Broughston
    Which means...
[18:02] Broughston
    that I shall answer with my own convictions.
[18:05] Rick
    That's a quarter thumbs-up!
[18:08] Angelica
    A quarter thumbs-up?
[18:11] Reanette
    A tradition seen in orc battles.
[18:15] Reanette
    It's a declaration that they will abandon
    evasion and defense to simply exchange blows.
[18:19] Rick
    Which means that from now on,
     Broughston-senpai...
[18:25] Rick
    will focus completely on attacking!
[18:29] Kelvin; internal
    What is this? I've never felt this before.
[18:33] Kelvin; internal
    Could this be... terror?
[18:39] Kelvin; internal
    He's so fast,
    my sense of smell doesn't work!
[18:47] Daniel
    That was just from the shockwave of a
    punch thrown with a strengthened arm?
[18:52] Angelica
    I can't believe it.
[18:53] Angelica
    Rick, is Broughston—The nothingness
    of complete resignation?!
[19:02] Kelvin
    B-Blast it!
[19:05] Kelvin
    Level-Seven Nature Composed Magic...
[19:08] Kelvin
    Flame Sword!
[19:10] Kelvin
    Storm Javelin!
[19:13] Kelvin
    Lightning Axe!
[19:16] Kelvin
    Curse him. He hasn't even blinked!
[19:22] Rick
    He can't have much magic left.
[19:24] Angelica
    After casting such powerful spells
    one after another, of course not!
[19:40] Angelica
    A direct hit?
[19:41] Rick
    No. He used Flowing Strikes, Flickering Feet,
[19:45] Rick
    and defense magic all at
    once to soften the blow.
[19:48] Angelica
    I'm amazed you could see all that.
[19:52] Kelvin; internal
    My bones and organs are
    messed up pretty badly.
[19:55] Kelvin; internal
    This guy's really extreme.
    Anyone else would be dead right now.
[20:01] Kelvin; internal
    If I gave up, I could rest,
[20:05] Kelvin; internal
    but I've been wishing for a
    strong opponent like this one.
[20:08] Kelvin; internal
    This is the real fight
    I've been longing for!
[20:14] Kelvin
    Get up! Get on your feet! I am...
[20:17] Kelvin
    I'm not done yet!
[20:21] Kelvin
    I've run out of magic,
     but I still have strength left!
[20:26] Rick
    But with that amount of damage,
     his physical strength will also...
[20:38] Kelvin; internal
    There are guys as strong as this
    out there in the world?
[20:43] crowd
    You can do it, Kelvin!
[20:45] crowd
    Stand up, champion!
[20:46] crowd; female
    Don't let him beat you!
[20:47] crowd
    You've still got fight in you!
[20:49] crowd; girl
    Kelvin, you can do it!
[20:50] crowd; boy
    Get up!
[20:52] crowd; boys
    Please!
[20:52] crowd
    Kelvin! Kelvin! Kelvin! Kelvin! Kelvin!

    Everyone, even after I've
    deceived you all this time...
[21:06] Daniel
    Kelvin!
[21:08] Angelica
    This cheering is incredible!
[21:11] Kelvin
    One more punch! Just one more punch!
[21:15] Kelvin
    If you're out of magic and strength,
    then chisel away your spirit for fuel!
[21:21] Rick
    The foot position for Flickering Feet and
    the strengthening for Forceful Fist!
[21:24] Rick
    And Rolling Fang wrapped in Flaming Sword!
SIGN    Nature Composed Spiral Fist
[21:54] Broughston
    Yes. Well done.
[21:58] Broughston
    Have you used every last drop
     of your strength, Kelvin Wolwolf?
[22:17] Kelvin
    Yeah.
[22:19] Kelvin
    That's the most fun I've had in my life.
[22:24] Broughston
    In honor of your magnificent fight,
    I bestow my greatest respect!
[22:36] Daniel
    It seems it's still a long road to becoming
    the strongest pugilist in history,
[22:43] Daniel
    but you are the greatest
    pugilist in history!
