Chapter 6 - M.D.B 6: Saint’s First Actual Combat (2/2)

The two stood up, and Colleen left the rice that Saint was preparing for her and said: ”Let's go!”

She walked to a corner and picked up two wooden swords and then asked Saint: ”Do you use weapons?”

”I don't need them.” Saint waved his hands and said: ”I only use my fists. However, I'll make it fair for you, by allowing you to use a sword.”

”What?”

Colleen sneered and laughed, never imagining that she would be underestimated by Saint. She made up her mind to teach him a lesson! She advanced with her wooden sword staring at his eyes: ”Well, you've asked for this!”

Because this was Saint's 1st actual fight, he was rather nervous. However, thanks to Goku's life experience, he quickly managed to calm down and lift his arms saying: ”Let's go!”

”Take this!”

Colleen wasn't through saying that when her wooden sword swung forth towards Saint. However, she was shocked to see Saint go forth while dodging swiftly, going past the sword and aiming a fierce elbow to her from the front!

'What perfect form and footwork!'

Colleen's eyes shrank sharply and she immediately lifted her left arm to push his elbow to the side, pushing herself away from his body. However, that gained her no room to breathe, as Saint's side Kick had already followed.

'How could he be so fast?!'

She was rather stunned, and found that he had to hold the hilt of her sword with both hands to block it. She thought she was able to use it to block Saint's kick difficultly, only to hear the sound of a crack! Splinters of wood were flying in the air as her sword was actually broken by his kick.

After his foot went through the sword, because of his momentum, Saint had to fȯrċɨbŀƴ divert his leg away from Colleen, and then take a step back into a ”drunken” posture.

Colleen's eyebrows rose up, and then she walked to the corner of her Dojo without saying a word. From her cabinet, she took out a sheathed Katana, and pulled out of its sheath. She had obviously recognized Saint's strength, and decided to go all out against him.

At the sight of cold steel, Saint's heart inevitable shook. With his current Ki, he shouldn't be able to keep a real sword from going through his body. If he was to receive a direct hit, Colleen's Dojo was definitely going to see blood!

”I shouldn't have provoked this mad woman…”

Saint knew that his regret was far too late, for Colleen, with her Katana in hand, immediately attacked him. He did not dare to block her weapon, and felt he was walking on thin Ice as he swiftly and carefully dodged all her swings, remaining focused to find a window for a counterattack!

The situation wasn't going to remain this stagnant for long. After he dodged over a dozen swings in succession, Saint's footwork inevitable got sloppy; he seemed to have lost his balance. Colleen's eyes shined as she saw her opportunity, and she went in in with her sword aggressively!

Watching the approaching blade, Saint, while in cold sweat, desperately suppressed his instinct telling him to dodge, and instead walked forwards, straightened his right arm, separating his fingers, pointing at Colleen's ċhėst and shouting: ”Jan Ken: Pa!” (Translator Note: This is how Goku announced his Grandpa's Rock Paper Scissors attacks, Pa is the paper variant. The description of the attack fits Hiken, also known as Soaring Fist, perfectly, as if it's an evolution of Rock Paper Scissors.)

Inside the sealed Dojo, a wild wind blew! Colleen could clearly see that Saint's hand was at least ten centimeters away from her ċhėst, but he felt an invisible big hand pushing her back. The powerful air current made her eyes open wide out of surprise, and the two rounded hemispheres on her ċhėst were squeezed in. At that moment, her feet involuntarily left the floor, and her entire body flew backwards!
