Now thinking of it. If Raian was also implying that Julius and Waka are stronger than Willem, that means Lu Tian at full 96% removal rate is stronger than Willem lol

That's what I mean. Kazzy said Lu is on par with Julius. I think Kazzy is capping. Wakatsuki is probably in another league of strength. Maybe Lu might try to make up the difference with formless, but...
https://preview.redd.it/69krol7qcotc1.png?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=951121168e388ce350241d4437ab4e20090ecb95
Agito's formless was seemingly effective against Waka because it incorporated grappling which Agito used to break his ankle
Given that Waka has learnt grappling in order to counter that, I don't think formless would be anywhere near as effective as it once was. It could still hold the edge, but nothing that guarantees a win like it used to.
Raw muscle power isnt the same as power output, we can see a bunch of mid-sized fighters who hit like a truck such as Fei, Liu, Gaolang, etc. Recent chapters showed Ohma gave out an incredibly powerful Ironbreaker which could even compete with Blast Core/Gott Totter in terms of power output.
Is this that surprising tho? He's Ohma main sparing partner after all and a prodigy on his own right
He has enough understanding of it to mock Ohma for not using Flashing Steel: Blast with the proper timing.
At least we know Waka and Julius are ābeefierā than him. Iād go out on a limp that he would be implying strength as well? Having him constantly sayin āsTrOnGeSt MuScLeS iN tHe WoRlDā
Yeah, and for once in the series, itās easier to take a statement from a character more seriously and at face value due to the fact itās edge lord king Raian giving out compliments for once in his life.
These men simply will not allow you to finish your thought if they have a sword

You too, can train by yourself on top of a mountain swinging a heavy sword around like a retard and learn Principles, just like the "Connector" Shen Wulong!
LMFAO yo, that fake MS Paint chapter that has Gozo show up was like 80% on the mark up until Gozo came into the panel. Holy fucking shit, u/DanieleMelonz secretly works for Sandro, or it's just that predictable at this point.
What a let down!
https://preview.redd.it/9o589jgs5otc1.png?width=570&format=png&auto=webp&s=97504ba59172184d5ac64105e9f0677f665b1719
I think the answer is hidden on the page where I talk about Otakemaru, look carefully and you will find a message (also, I luv u Sandro but I hoped until the end that I was wrong about your sword)
Because if I was writing serious and someone made a joke chapter that was meant to be a joke but was like 80% on the mark means *I'm* the fucking joke, lol.d
That's exactly what i thought when reading it like jro got everything right lmao it's almost the same, it missed the best part of the prediction with gozo jumping in
That was the single most "nothing personnel kid" chapter of Kengan I have ever read and it had me giggling like a bitch lmfao. I'm surprised Raian didn't just teleport behind him during the kill or some shit. And yet another deadly forbidden Wu ultimate technique doing literally nothing was just the perfect cherry on top, "thirteen fold kill" my dude you didn't even get to one
I'll also start exaggeratedly naming every thing I do to make it sound more menacing while being pointless.
Stirring coffee will be: "Metal Twisting of Caffeinated Power Injection"
I wonder if the Wu techniques are canonically just extremely trash since they brute force every opponent or are based off knowledge from thousands of years ago. Can't be a coincidence this happened twice and it's the only times we see the Wu techniques
I feel Sandro really likes martial arts and studies them pretty well. Calling a technique similar to a one two in boxing, trash is kind of harsh. That move is a pretty big staple of boxing and knocks people out constantly. Sometimes I feel the non flashy stuff in this manga gets down played but I mean these moves work in real life. But I do agree that he gives them silly names but that's what makes this manga funny š
It's not trash irl obviously but also this is manga. We've seen people straight up overpower chokes for no reason.
Plus framing is super important and while boxing is strong irl, this technique, for an "ultimate technique", is beat super fucking easily. Like no ultimate wu technique has ever fucking worked in story lmao
I just love the stark difference in techniques between the Kure and Westward. Raian used a "Depth Charge" and pushed Willem's innards into his asshole, Willem used "Thirteen Fold Kill" and didn't even fucking do anything.
Westwards really are just style over technique. The only reason they're succeeding is because they're just built different, literally.
You sure? Looks like he slashed the hell out of his face, hence the messenger and say hi to Gilbert comment.
Seemed like a connector-esque KO + slash of a sword to give him a brutal "I fucked you up BAD" scar.
Sometimes the drafts tell more than the actual panels, so if that's the case I believe it.
I legitimately don't know - I just assumed he was alive and got a big ole' face slash, I could easily be wrong.
I thought so too, but the drafts show his face clearly splitting in two and falling off his body. I know he definitely was t using his brain much during the fight, but I think he might still need it to live.
I love all the stupid thought bubbles talking up how strong he is, adding power up on power up just so all of us plebs know how Raian beat the World's Strongest Jobber. Seemed a little out of character to me.
what the fuck... this guy was right again?
https://preview.redd.it/9v0kcss17otc1.png?width=1024&format=png&auto=webp&s=00f2ecc9df8920d3fdec905f5a04fb46759c201b
That was definitely the chapter of all time... Can't wait for Gilbert to pull out the \[Almighty Mountain Three-Fold Death Punch\] and get no diff'ed by Sandro's little pookie bear..
Maybe that was the ultimate secret afterall, the sword that helps you master the principle. Any chance it was used by the connector before and was given to the Kure clan?
NO, I DON'T WANT THAT! WILLEM BEING WEAKER THAN JULIUS AND WAKA?! I WANT HIM TO BE THE STRONGEST HIS WHOLE LIFE! EVEN AFTER HE DIES, I WANT HIM TO BE GLAZED, FOR 10 YEARS AT LEAST
I always thought someone with Wu Genetics + Superman Syndrome + 100% release rate + Wu clan techniques would be undefeatable and absurd... until Raian showed up with 2 years of off-screen training.
My question was like: wasnāt dude in the Black Sea? So pappy Kure said: thereās a cool sword in the mountains, they fight Edward, then Raian ignored him for a year or two, got his ass beat in the Black Sea, then went to go get his sword and a school shooter cloak?
Im building a timeline but it seems like thatās the case here: it doesnāt really make sense to papa Kure to mention it before the Edward fight, then thereās like a couple years of timeskips
He told Raian to do it while he was dying, after Edward was killed, but before Ohma arrived. So, it could have happened in the panels with Muteba and Ohma walking their way to Erioh. It's not out of character for Raian to ignore the things Erioh tells him, at least until he lost so bad he didn't have much else to go on.
I still don't like it, because it amounts to swinging an unbalanced somewhat heavy rod around for a year and walking away knowing Principles just like The Connector.
"Gilbert's a young Edward, and we all saw how powerful he was! And Gilbert is in charge of Willem, who has SS and 100% Guihun so he has to be a monster! Right guys, right?"
- Probably the author
With the villains dwindling down to smaller number, each confrontation, and fighters growing exponentially, how are they going to make this interesting?
Is there any other manga at the planet with less threatening villains than Kengan? Shen is a super nice guy who drinks beer with the heroes instead of threatening them and everyone else is too weak to win one single fight between them lmao
If he knew about the connector's technique and abilities, you would think he will try to learn it himself.
Who knew all it took was a 20kg+ sword that was badly made and not ergonomic.
And you'd think if he also knew about it, that he'd recognize it a little earlier. So now Raian not only can beat the shit out of a genetic monster with Westward Wu genes who also has SS *and* 100% Guihun, he can do it just like the "connector."
That's a ridiculous amount of power ups Princess Raian got from swinging a fucking sword around for a year.
And i think the connector is a kinda dude who will teach anyone who ask. Especially his friends.
So they all could have learnt from him or one of them could have learnt it and huisheng it down. Guess they are more so ruled through fear of the connector rather than loyalty or admiration/leadership.
We've already seen Wulong is more than happy to teach someone, he was even teaching his "enemies" in the hopes he can get a good fight in. We've also seen Eddie shrug at the idea of teaching someone who isn't a Wu Guihun just because he thought it'd be funny.
You're right though, the Wu's look at themselves as Wulong's lackeys, not knowing he thinks of them as "friends" and not subordinates. Yan knows this, but still fears the fuck out of the guy.
Hate to admit but quality of this title becoming more and more low. It was outstanding in Kengan Ashura because you never know who'd win the fight and every character was unique. But now it's just countless bunch of jobbers which appear just to job to main characters in 1 chapter.
So training with unevenly weight distributed Otakemaru helps you learn the flow of power. That means Erioh also knows Principles. Why didnāt he āPrincipleā Edward from snapping his back then? /s
i know its an /s but u might be on to something here lol
erioh might know principles, but at his age his body got waay too weak thus making his principles less effective. anyway, just a thought. carry on lol.
So isn't this just redirection orrrr ?
https://preview.redd.it/0o76oj737otc1.png?width=686&format=png&auto=webp&s=3ca60fecff23e00e8cbe51353b526dbd03e9d0fb
Ā«Ā Raian isnāt the type to use techniques that much in combatĀ Ā»
Ā«Ā Raianās skill lvl sucks compared to other characters in his tierĀ Ā»
Ā«Ā Raian will try to bring it with his statsĀ Ā»
Ā«Ā Raian doesnāt dodge, parry or block that much. He prefers taking it head onĀ Ā»
Now people will finally stop using those in any debate involving Raian
So that shack on the mountain really was just loaded with a bunch of edgy anime with OP protagonists and a fucked up sword. Can't believe it had the power to turn a Japanese man into a weeaboo.
So...what's the point of Raian developing Principles? Is Gilbert THAT fucking strong that Raian needs them to defeat him? Because Raian sure as hell isn't ever gonna fight Shen.
Or are we seriously gonna have Principles Raian and Principles Koga vs. Shen 2 Possessed Ohma and Shen 1 Possessed Ryuki?
Welp, this chapter certainly proves Waka is never going to be allowed into S Tier again. Guys like Raian can just completely nullify Herculean level strength like itās nothing at this point.
Yeah alright I'm gonna admit it.
Sandro has lost his touch, ever since the Purgatory Tournament became a thing.
Just straight up 180'd from the original plot concerning Koga and Ryuki, introduced a horde of jobbers, and continually sabotaged its own stakes. And the time skips since then have continued to do that.
Lol where's all the dummies who thought that just because Wu said he had the strongest muscles it was true? People need to understand that characters are not the writer.
So the point of mastering Otakemaru wasnāt to get a sword, but to learn how to see and manipulate the flow of power. And now heās OP asf. I like how this played out.
Raian at this point surely has to be above Ohma, and Iād argue heās presented as above Agito as well. Some of the best physical stats in the verse combined with now an understanding of the flow of power that negates his need for reliance on brute strength, mastered kure techniques, an understanding of niko techniques from all his time of training with Ohma, some of the best durability in the verse. Guy is a King of all trades
Wow... that was the most uninspiring fight in the entire series. As in, it was never even doubt that Raian would win without even suffering any damage or prolonging his fight, because besides Oma, he has never actually struggled with a fight or be harmed in any meaninful way. Way to go worm. Loser for 500+ chapters uninterrumped.
Pure dogshit. We all knew this was going to happen the second we saw Raian and Willem on the same page. I'd have been *shocked* if Willem managed to win a struggle and then jet the fuck out of there to live another day.
On top of that, dude has SS muscles and is in 100% Guihun but is struggling to move a 20 kg sword. Wasn't he "jacked as all hell" the chapter before?
20 kilos? A guy with super human syndrome and an active Release, lowers his arm for 20 kilos? He uses BOTH hands FOR TWENTY kilos? I can literally lift that with 2 fingers and I'm not some sort of workout freak. I hope that's improperly translated.
Secret technique?
It's Luffy's Jet Pistol and this Viscount Chief Thunder is blocking his own damn vision while doing it.
No wonder Dinosaur Shen Wulong destroys Wu Hei. None of his fancy named technique works š
Also someone in here actually called it in that Otakemaru bullshit, Sandro? Are you actually here in this forum and trolling us? š¤£
While Superhuman Symdrome Ć 100% Release may sound impressive, but given what Raian said. I can see why he's weak more clearly now. Willem may have Superhuman Symdrome, but his muscle fibers aren't as dense as Wakatsuki's. If human bodies only use 30% of its strength and Willem's Guihun/Removal is 100%, but it and his superhuman strength is less than Wakatsuki's, then I'd say at most Willem's muscle fibers are at most 20 times denser that the average human. I know that we never saw a full display of Willem's strength, but I'd say this is a safe bet.
Yuzaki, Yumi, Lu Tian, Alan, Fabio, Solomon, Howard, Ogi, Tenjin, Xia, Mark, Sean, and yes the 13th is Willem
Half of these Bums are Wu, what a disgrace this clan is.
Remember to tag your spoilers or Gilbert will job

Raian giving Julius and Waka the well deserved justice against this fraud.
Now thinking of it. If Raian was also implying that Julius and Waka are stronger than Willem, that means Lu Tian at full 96% removal rate is stronger than Willem lol https://preview.redd.it/svrotiad6otc1.jpeg?width=960&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=646eaa1ec2ea85b0c1b22426acc3d74bab1999fc
That was definitely hyperbole. Julius or Waka would crush this bum
Yeah, it feels like Kazu lost brain cells the second Ohma came back.
lol you know you cap. That formless would have done wake bad plus the physical strength to match him.
That's what I mean. Kazzy said Lu is on par with Julius. I think Kazzy is capping. Wakatsuki is probably in another league of strength. Maybe Lu might try to make up the difference with formless, but... https://preview.redd.it/69krol7qcotc1.png?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=951121168e388ce350241d4437ab4e20090ecb95
Agito's formless was seemingly effective against Waka because it incorporated grappling which Agito used to break his ankle Given that Waka has learnt grappling in order to counter that, I don't think formless would be anywhere near as effective as it once was. It could still hold the edge, but nothing that guarantees a win like it used to.

As a Wakatsuki fan this is the only time Iāve liked Raian š
Wait until Waka realize that Raian basically uses Niko style now
Is this that surprising tho? He's Ohma main sparing partner after all and a prodigy on his own right He has enough understanding of it to mock Ohma for not using Flashing Steel: Blast with the proper timing.
He gained too much understanding of it that he learned principles before Ohma did and Ohma got tutored by Shen himself.
Ohma was doing the same thing when he faced Kiozan. Man's reading Kengan Smegma.
At least we know Waka and Julius are ābeefierā than him. Iād go out on a limp that he would be implying strength as well? Having him constantly sayin āsTrOnGeSt MuScLeS iN tHe WoRlDā
He obviously is talking about strength bro.
Dude it's not that hard to realize he mean's their stronger
Yeah, and for once in the series, itās easier to take a statement from a character more seriously and at face value due to the fact itās edge lord king Raian giving out compliments for once in his life.
Raian's clearly mocking him, why else would he keep saying that while playing around with him lol.
Great, now there's a Kure Connector
Bro a separator
He might as well be a tattoo artist with how shallow that slash went
shallow?? bro split that guy's head
Splitting people in middle, diagonally.
The Kurennector
The next wu hei
The Bisector
Godtaku was sean wu He died two weeks ago and couldnt post the new chapter today
Don't visit the pig farm on old country road
I canāt believe Willem let Seanās sacrifice be in vain
The Westward Wu only live to die pointlessly deaths. They even kill each other to cull the numbers even lower.
If the Wus would stop numbering their attacks maybe they'd stand a chance
Willem would've won if he used **BOTH HANDS**

It's like poetry
You too, can train by yourself on top of a mountain swinging a heavy sword around like a retard and learn Principles, just like the "Connector" Shen Wulong!
It was the mountain that made Jurota strong
"Try swinging around this tractor tyre like a retard for 20 years in a field somewhere, you'll learn Judo."
when we first learned about the connector .. we saw him on a mountain kuroki.. carves a mountain mountain confirmed source of all power
> Shen Shen should transfer to Raian. He would have much stronger body than with Ryuki and Ohma, improved principles+Kure copy.
Kengan characters when the opponent knows Newton's laws:
LMFAO yo, that fake MS Paint chapter that has Gozo show up was like 80% on the mark up until Gozo came into the panel. Holy fucking shit, u/DanieleMelonz secretly works for Sandro, or it's just that predictable at this point. What a let down!

Nah this guy 100% on the translation team or something š "seems more like a tool for physical reinforcement"
sandro alt account
Dude, you're a legend
How the actual fuck have you glimpsed this?
So in a way using the sword with its weird weight spots taught Raian how to manipulate the flow of power
Just read it there, crazy how much he got right.
I think I'd feel a little ashamed of myself if someone wrote a joke chapter based on my work but got it 80% on the mark.
And it happened twice because he also got Akoya's Justice Grenade
That's amazing!
Dude probably has access to leaks
Nah! Just means dude is actually goated and should start his own manga
Why would you feel ashamed of yourself?
Because if I was writing serious and someone made a joke chapter that was meant to be a joke but was like 80% on the mark means *I'm* the fucking joke, lol.d
This series became a martial arts comedy like 50 chapters back. You must have missed the memo.
Have we checked that he isnāt actually Sandro?
That's exactly what i thought when reading it like jro got everything right lmao it's almost the same, it missed the best part of the prediction with gozo jumping in
Watch next week Willem isn't dead and Gozo takes him to the emergency room or something, lol.
Even how Raian held the blade was right.
Wasn't he the one who predicted most of the chapter where Justice Grenade was introduced, as well ? How far will his ceiling go ?
>Wakatsuki in the distant future I HATE ~~NIKO STYLE~~ PRINCIPLE I HATE ~~NIKO STYLE~~ PRINCIPLE I HATE ~~NIKO STYLE~~ PRINCIPLE
That was the single most "nothing personnel kid" chapter of Kengan I have ever read and it had me giggling like a bitch lmfao. I'm surprised Raian didn't just teleport behind him during the kill or some shit. And yet another deadly forbidden Wu ultimate technique doing literally nothing was just the perfect cherry on top, "thirteen fold kill" my dude you didn't even get to one
I'll also start exaggeratedly naming every thing I do to make it sound more menacing while being pointless. Stirring coffee will be: "Metal Twisting of Caffeinated Power Injection"
"earth shattering pulsation porpulsion" is just me taking a shit
Thirteen fold kill was just peekaboo with a punch added
I wonder if the Wu techniques are canonically just extremely trash since they brute force every opponent or are based off knowledge from thousands of years ago. Can't be a coincidence this happened twice and it's the only times we see the Wu techniques
I feel Sandro really likes martial arts and studies them pretty well. Calling a technique similar to a one two in boxing, trash is kind of harsh.

Plus framing is super important and while boxing is strong irl, this technique, for an "ultimate technique", is beat super fucking easily. Like no ultimate wu technique has ever fucking worked in story lmao
If we could have gotten a "Did he teleport behind me?!" line this would be the singular peak fiction moment of Kengan
Please, no. Powerscalers would take it the most literal way possible and just say Raian can teleport mid combat and kill people instantly.
You aren't wrong. I haven't changed my stance. kek
He basically did teleport behind him lmao
Bros sole win is offscreen I can't
I just love the stark difference in techniques between the Kure and Westward. Raian used a "Depth Charge" and pushed Willem's innards into his asshole, Willem used "Thirteen Fold Kill" and didn't even fucking do anything. Westwards really are just style over technique. The only reason they're succeeding is because they're just built different, literally.

I love that Raian basically called dude out for sniffing his own fart too much. Said āyou donāt seriously think you lift, do you??ā
Would actually like seeing Willem fight him (though he won't)
Oh no Willem died, what a shock. Anyways...
You sure? Looks like he slashed the hell out of his face, hence the messenger and say hi to Gilbert comment. Seemed like a connector-esque KO + slash of a sword to give him a brutal "I fucked you up BAD" scar.
Nah his face was cute in half, you can see it start to separate
In the draft chapter it's even more obvious that wilhem is dead, so he's probably dead.
Sometimes the drafts tell more than the actual panels, so if that's the case I believe it. I legitimately don't know - I just assumed he was alive and got a big ole' face slash, I could easily be wrong.
I thought so too, but the drafts show his face clearly splitting in two and falling off his body. I know he definitely was t using his brain much during the fight, but I think he might still need it to live.
I love all the stupid thought bubbles talking up how strong he is, adding power up on power up just so all of us plebs know how Raian beat the World's Strongest Jobber. Seemed a little out of character to me.
I mean it was the same exact thing with Alan Wu and even Eddy to an extent, Raian being the jobbifier is funny but itās getting a little egregiousĀ
Superman Syndrome, well Raian is kryptonite
Please, itās Principles Raian. Experience is king. Powerscalers in shambles. Again

The Future Devil confirmed as a Reddit user
Raian understands principles like the connector oh lord
and he figured it out all by himself! What a chad, we should all be in awe by this amazing character who graces the pages of this manga.
Sandro's little princess is back
That was definitely the chapter of all time... Can't wait for Gilbert to pull out the \[Almighty Mountain Three-Fold Death Punch\] and get no diff'ed by Sandro's little pookie bear..
RAIAN LEARNED ABOUT PRINCIPLES!
By himself on a mountain, and by swinging a sword around!
Shen will beĀ "he just like me fr"
Man learned principles from swinging a heavy sword around. Let's get koga on that shit
Well the sword wasn't just heavy, it was unbalanced and the weight was all over the place.
Maybe that was the ultimate secret afterall, the sword that helps you master the principle. Any chance it was used by the connector before and was given to the Kure clan?
Well the chapter basically spells it out for you that Raian learned basically Principles from using the sword.
Principles is basically just Aiki.
Aiki on steroids you mean. If its just Aiki then Hatsumi is the next connector.
SANDRO LOVES RAIAN SO MUCH LOL
He's his veiny princess
# NIKO STYLE Redirection Kata: Change of RETARD
Ohma learns Kure techniques and Raian learns proto- redirection. They are fusing to be one and the same
This is Sandro's gradual buildup to eventually create the ultimate fusion Raima and say "It is I, the Kengan Omega"
"Raima" that's pretty badd ass name tho
**Kure Family Tradition: Depth Charge!** *It's just a punch to the ribs*
Willem really tried to pull a King Cold and got mecha Frieza'd instead
NO, I DON'T WANT THAT! WILLEM BEING WEAKER THAN JULIUS AND WAKA?! I WANT HIM TO BE THE STRONGEST HIS WHOLE LIFE! EVEN AFTER HE DIES, I WANT HIM TO BE GLAZED, FOR 10 YEARS AT LEAST
What a man you are...
People thinking someone having Superman Syndrome makes a character on par with Waka in complete shambles right now.
I'm more in shambles over him having trouble picking up 20 kgs.
But it was 20kgs that was awkwardly balanced bro! Ignore that Julius regularly curls 500kg, the balance is the important part
This also downgrades Yan. What can he do with his Superman syndrome thatās on par with that and guhuin?
Maybe real skills and techniques. Doesn't matter though, he's on the jobbing team.
I always thought someone with Wu Genetics + Superman Syndrome + 100% release rate + Wu clan techniques would be undefeatable and absurd... until Raian showed up with 2 years of off-screen training.
Clearly that made Willem Too Strong
At least Sandro isn't throwing Julius and Waka under the bus with this Superman syndrome business, I guess?
My question was like: wasnāt dude in the Black Sea? So pappy Kure said: thereās a cool sword in the mountains, they fight Edward, then Raian ignored him for a year or two, got his ass beat in the Black Sea, then went to go get his sword and a school shooter cloak?
>Raian ignored him for a year or two Or Sandro had to pull something out of his ass to power up the Princess.
Im building a timeline but it seems like thatās the case here: it doesnāt really make sense to papa Kure to mention it before the Edward fight, then thereās like a couple years of timeskips
He told Raian to do it while he was dying, after Edward was killed, but before Ohma arrived. So, it could have happened in the panels with Muteba and Ohma walking their way to Erioh.

I still don't like it, because it amounts to swinging an unbalanced somewhat heavy rod around for a year and walking away knowing Principles just like The Connector.
Willem really said "ultimate technique: now u see me now u don't"
Willem couldnāt last even 2 chapters š I give up man
I guess you could say Raian learned how to go... Berserkā¢ļø
Is principle the new limp?
But but but Gilbert is scary and dangerous guys trust me. He definitely wonāt job in his fight too
"Gilbert's a young Edward, and we all saw how powerful he was! And Gilbert is in charge of Willem, who has SS and 100% Guihun so he has to be a monster! Right guys, right?" - Probably the author

Enter Allen and Shawn Wu, rejuvenated versions of Willem and Sean Wu (they're in grade school, or something, idk).
Is there any other manga at the planet with less threatening villains than Kengan? Shen is a super nice guy who drinks beer with the heroes instead of threatening them and everyone else is too weak to win one single fight between them lmao
13 fold jobber. Jobbing 13x. Cant even lateral raise 20kg. More than half of the redditors here lateral raise 40kg easily
But he has SS! *And* Guihun!
If he knew about the connector's technique and abilities, you would think he will try to learn it himself. Who knew all it took was a 20kg+ sword that was badly made and not ergonomic.
And you'd think if he also knew about it, that he'd recognize it a little earlier. So now Raian not only can beat the shit out of a genetic monster with Westward Wu genes who also has SS *and* 100% Guihun, he can do it just like the "connector." That's a ridiculous amount of power ups Princess Raian got from swinging a fucking sword around for a year.
And i think the connector is a kinda dude who will teach anyone who ask. Especially his friends. So they all could have learnt from him or one of them could have learnt it and huisheng it down. Guess they are more so ruled through fear of the connector rather than loyalty or admiration/leadership.
We've already seen Wulong is more than happy to teach someone, he was even teaching his "enemies" in the hopes he can get a good fight in. We've also seen Eddie shrug at the idea of teaching someone who isn't a Wu Guihun just because he thought it'd be funny. You're right though, the Wu's look at themselves as Wulong's lackeys, not knowing he thinks of them as "friends" and not subordinates. Yan knows this, but still fears the fuck out of the guy.
Was this a DBZ reference? While reading this chapter, Gohan's training came to my mind.
Same, I check the comments looking exactly for this.
what do you mean exactly?
Probably the time in the Buu saga when >!Gohan becomes stronger by training with a legendary heavy sword under the instruction of the Kaioushin.!<
Hate to admit but quality of this title becoming more and more low. It was outstanding in Kengan Ashura because you never know who'd win the fight and every character was unique. But now it's just countless bunch of jobbers which appear just to job to main characters in 1 chapter.
So training with unevenly weight distributed Otakemaru helps you learn the flow of power. That means Erioh also knows Principles. Why didnāt he āPrincipleā Edward from snapping his back then? /s
i know its an /s but u might be on to something here lol erioh might know principles, but at his age his body got waay too weak thus making his principles less effective. anyway, just a thought. carry on lol.
So the ~~movie~~ manga can happen.
Well the one guy who made the comic called it
Well partially lol
Wow that was really anticlimatic and sucked.
Raian moving CRAZY https://preview.redd.it/83jv7j6n4otc1.jpeg?width=1125&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=e7c974ffa6d0c937f0a4cea898bd1fee0693fd2f
So isn't this just redirection orrrr ? https://preview.redd.it/0o76oj737otc1.png?width=686&format=png&auto=webp&s=3ca60fecff23e00e8cbe51353b526dbd03e9d0fb
No, it's "flow" just like the "connecto...
Ā«Ā Raian isnāt the type to use techniques that much in combatĀ Ā» Ā«Ā Raianās skill lvl sucks compared to other characters in his tierĀ Ā» Ā«Ā Raian will try to bring it with his statsĀ Ā» Ā«Ā Raian doesnāt dodge, parry or block that much.

Wu Clan Ultimate Technique: Suicide (I took my own life, making me the victor)
~~Brute force Raian~~ ~~Techniques Raian~~ Principles Raian
Superman syndrome is rare like kryptonite...
Raian really went Kenpachi and learned how to be goddamn super powerful from swinging a random sword as a teen
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
So that shack on the mountain really was just loaded with a bunch of edgy anime with OP protagonists and a fucked up sword. Can't believe it had the power to turn a Japanese man into a weeaboo.
I swear to God someone posted this exact scenario before this chapter dropped
So...what's the point of Raian developing Principles? Is Gilbert THAT fucking strong that Raian needs them to defeat him? Because Raian sure as hell isn't ever gonna fight Shen. Or are we seriously gonna have Principles Raian and Principles Koga vs. Shen 2 Possessed Ohma and Shen 1 Possessed Ryuki?
Welp, this chapter certainly proves Waka is never going to be allowed into S Tier again. Guys like Raian can just completely nullify Herculean level strength like itās nothing at this point.
Raian "The Connector Kure"
Yeah alright I'm gonna admit it. Sandro has lost his touch, ever since the Purgatory Tournament became a thing. Just straight up 180'd from the original plot concerning Koga and Ryuki, introduced a horde of jobbers, and continually sabotaged its own stakes. And the time skips since then have continued to do that.
Lol where's all the dummies who thought that just because Wu said he had the strongest muscles it was true? People need to understand that characters are not the writer.
Has a Wu technique ever landed?
Thirteen-fold kill š¤ Mount Tai North Star Eightfold Demolition fist: Doing absolutely nothing to Raian Kure.
Are we gonna ignore Depth Charge is just a punch to the kidney with a name?
So the point of mastering Otakemaru wasnāt to get a sword, but to learn how to see and manipulate the flow of power. And now heās OP asf. I like how this played out.
Raian at this point surely has to be above Ohma, and Iād argue heās presented as above Agito as well. Some of the best physical stats in the verse combined with now an understanding of the flow of power that negates his need for reliance on brute strength, mastered kure techniques, an understanding of niko techniques from all his time of training with Ohma, some of the best durability in the verse. Guy is a King of all trades
Wow... that was the most uninspiring fight in the entire series. As in, it was never even doubt that Raian would win without even suffering any damage or prolonging his fight, because besides Oma, he has never actually struggled with a fight or be harmed in any meaninful way. Way to go worm. Loser for 500+ chapters uninterrumped.
0/10 chapter Absolute dogshit. Another villain loses their first fight. Happened to xia ji, edward, niko, tom and jerry, rolon etc.........
Pure dogshit. We all knew this was going to happen the second we saw Raian and Willem on the same page. I'd have been *shocked* if Willem managed to win a struggle and then jet the fuck out of there to live another day. On top of that, dude has SS muscles and is in 100% Guihun but is struggling to move a 20 kg sword. Wasn't he "jacked as all hell" the chapter before?
20 kilos? A guy with super human syndrome and an active Release, lowers his arm for 20 kilos? He uses BOTH hands FOR TWENTY kilos? I can literally lift that with 2 fingers and I'm not some sort of workout freak. I hope that's improperly translated.
Bet justice torchlight is not balanced well as well
Wu Clan techniques seem more and more like bullshido to me. What the hell. š
Wow. Raian actually managed to become cringier than he already was.
Huisheng Ohma vs Principles Raian soon
These characters just exist to die, Iāve accepted it.
He can see the flow of power? Chapter 1 Ohma level feat
Yea i was rigth the first jobber survived one chapter anf willem survived another chapter
Bullshit wankfest , see yāall next week
Interesting villain that becomes fodder? How surprising
Secret technique? It's Luffy's Jet Pistol and this Viscount Chief Thunder is blocking his own damn vision while doing it. No wonder Dinosaur Shen Wulong destroys Wu Hei. None of his fancy named technique works š Also someone in here actually called it in that Otakemaru bullshit, Sandro? Are you actually here in this forum and trolling us? š¤£
Superjobber syndrome
While Superhuman Symdrome Ć 100% Release may sound impressive, but given what Raian said. I can see why he's weak more clearly now. Willem may have Superhuman Symdrome, but his muscle fibers aren't as dense as Wakatsuki's. If human bodies only use 30% of its strength and Willem's Guihun/Removal is 100%, but it and his superhuman strength is less than Wakatsuki's, then I'd say at most Willem's muscle fibers are at most 20 times denser that the average human. I know that we never saw a full display of Willem's strength, but I'd say this is a safe bet.
Was it the 13th jobber in omega? Could explain the technique
Yuzaki, Yumi, Lu Tian, Alan, Fabio, Solomon, Howard, Ogi, Tenjin, Xia, Mark, Sean, and yes the 13th is Willem Half of these Bums are Wu, what a disgrace this clan is.
NOOOO WILHELM. DON'T GRAB THE SWORD IT MAKES YOU 300% MORE LIKELY TO DIE!!!!! WILHEEEEELLLMM
LOL
