Chapter 416: Even Crazy Diamond Can't Save Your Inferior Cow Dung Croissant Hairstyle
Juri Han, the exclusive assassin of the Shadaloo branch S.I.N., primarily uses taekwondo-based leg techniques as her fighting style. She possesses a twisted and cruel personality, often appearing in her assassin role.
And with Juri Han's command, the security personnel, originally scattered throughout the hall, all gathered, surrounding Cheng Tian and December.
"Spider, you've overstepped."
However, facing this situation, December's already expressionless face remained unfazed. He simply looked at the other party coldly through his mask.
"Ha~~? Overstepped~~? A lapdog like you, who should only be hidden in the shadows!
Appearing openly here is the biggest overstep!"
Juri Han leaned her body, deliberately emphasizing the word "lapdog," which was enough to show her disdain for Vega's personal guards.
In fact, although the S.I.N. department is a research branch of Shadaloo, the composition of its internal personnel is problematic. The department head has long harbored rebellious intentions, even wanting to replace Shadaloo and Vega.
As the saying goes, a servant cannot serve two masters. Juri Han, who belongs to the S.I.N. department, clearly never regarded Vega as her true boss.
Speaking of which, Juri Han paused, her gaze shifting to Cheng Tian, or more precisely, to the mask Cheng Tian was wearing.
"Speaking of which, why is there another masked person? And a man? What, are you also like this guy, too ugly to show your face?"
Seemingly slandering Cheng Tian, she was actually further provoking December.
Juri Han habitually engaged in verbal provocation. This act of enraging others, luring them to strike first, and then kicking their nose bridge to break it, was truly captivating!
But Cheng Tian's next response made Juri Han freeze for a moment.
"If you ask me, the two croissants on top of your head are astonishingly ugly. Do you need me to help you stuff some cow dung in them to pass them off as chocolate croissants?"
As soon as these words came out, December couldn't help but glance sideways at Cheng Tian. Although he remained expressionless, the gleam in his eyes showed his surprise at Cheng Tian's statement.
But what was even more interesting was the surrounding department guards and staff who also heard it clearly.
As Cheng Tian's words fell, these people's bodies trembled abruptly, and then, almost in unison, they began to slowly retreat, trying to distance themselves from Cheng Tian.
And the staff members were simply full of horror, yet they endured their fear and began to evacuate with very stealthy movements.
It wasn't Cheng Tian's retort that caused some strange pressure, but rather that they clearly knew that Juri Han, who had been retorted to, especially with her hairstyle targeted, was about to explode.
Juri Han's eyes first widened in shock, her face twisted, then she regained her composure, and then—
A high-speed kick, like a gust of wind and lightning, went straight for Cheng Tian's face!
At this moment, Juri Han's features were more distorted than ever before.
Cheng Tian had precisely stepped on one of the things Juri Han cared about most, besides a blood feud, which was her croissant hairstyle—a style that was clearly ugly, yet might have been somewhat passable if solely supported by her looks, but became even more unbearable because she was a master of facial expressions.
If she didn't truly like it, who would bother to comb her hair into such a croissant shape every day, as if it would leak filling if squeezed?
But just as Cheng Tian's nasal bone was about to be instantly destroyed by that kick, an orange-gold figure appeared out of thin air, meeting Juri Han's enraged strike with a heavy punch!
Bang!
Fists and feet collided, and the resulting shockwave immediately spread, shattering the glass in that small area.
Juri Han, whose kick was blocked, was not surprised; instead, she became even more excited. Her feet flew, and she began to attack Cheng Tian from all directions.
Cheng Tian, wearing a mask, was hard to recognize, but this iconic Stand, which was like the opening ceremony of the entire King of Fighters '97 preliminary tournament, successfully entered the sight of many spectators and fighters.
Although Juri Han didn't watch the entire tournament, she recognized this Stand.
As for why Cheng Tian appeared here, how he got involved with December, and what their purpose was, Juri Han didn't consider any of those questions.
She just wanted to kick Cheng Tian's face, hidden beneath the golden mask, to pieces!
Juri Han's fighting aura had a black and white ink wash painting style. It was not only incredibly fast but also embodied power. Even the ripples of her kicks were enough to tear apart the surrounding debris.
But for ordinary fighters, these powerful kicking techniques, which might not be blocked even once, never truly landed on Cheng Tian.
"What's wrong? Did I hit a nerve? A mere croissant head, nothing more than a failed imitation of Jolyne Cujoh... and a very failed one at that!
A failed imitator using Taekwondo, which has the lowest practical combat value in the fighting world, is truly unbearable to watch!
Even Crazy Diamond can't fix your cow dung croissant! WRYYYYYY!!!!"
Cheng Tian, who left all the counter-attacks to The World, stood with his arms crossed, strolling leisurely, but his mouth was never idle.
With each taunt that came out, Juri Han's anger visibly increased, and this was only the beginning.
Cheng Tian was petty; he would settle any grudge on the spot. Since Juri Han's mouth wasn't clean, he naturally wouldn't indulge her, and he immediately and precisely stepped on every landmine of this assassin from the great universe nation.
After insulting her hairstyle, he started insulting her origin.
Such as Taekwondo having no practical combat value and only being fit for forms, or all kimchi ingredients being imported from Qilu, or the traditional delicacy Budae Jjigae being just swill picked up from US military base trash cans and reprocessed.
Juri Han actually agreed with Cheng Tian's slander of Taekwondo deep down, because she knew better than anyone that Taekwondo was only strong in her hands; it was she who made Taekwondo show its powerful side, not Taekwondo that made her.
But Cheng's continuous slander of kimchi and Budae Jjigae was an insult second only to the croissant head!
Among Juri Han's favorite spicy foods, kimchi and Budae Jjigae held the first and second positions!
Unforgivable!
By the way, Juri Han's third favorite thing was "big breasts," but it was deleted in Capcom's subsequent promotional materials... Juri Han, whose rage meter had been maxed out by Cheng Tian, began to literally glow in her left eye!
This eye was S.I.N.'s most powerful prosthetic work to date—the Feng Shui Engine!
A black and white swirling vortex, with a Tai Chi ink wash style, began to rapidly spin and condense from Juri Han's left eye, quickly expanding throughout her entire body.
Power and agility, both reaching their peak at this moment, Juri Han's aura had been elevated to the highest level.
But at this very moment, a purple dome suddenly enveloped Juri Han.
And outside the dome, The World, which had suddenly turned completely black like its user, had already spread its arms, making a preparatory embracing motion as if to embrace the entire world, and a strange wave rapidly spread out.
"Za Warudo!"
Juri Han only heard Cheng Tian shout something strange and unidentifiable, and then found that the person in front of her was gone, and—
A piercing pain in her left eye!
"Ah ah ah ah ah!!!!!"
And her left eyeball, which she had lost for the second time, had already appeared in The World's hand not far behind her.
