The Ocean Thunder Journey

Tournament : They Finally Fight

After a while, Ridwan who was finishing his big bath opened the door of the break room.

Suddenly all eyes were on Ridwan, while Ridwan looked at them in confusion.

" uh... What was? " ask Ridwan.

Ridwan's question immediately got an embarrassing word from Yuni.

" WASKY "

" Eh... "

Ridwan who was still confused immediately realized.

" Eh.... Th-wait.... I-I'm not perverted... That's slander wooee! " said Ridwan who does not accept ridiculed perverted.

" If you're not a pervert why are you doing that, you know that's a taboo for a girl like me? " tanya Yuni who was still staring at Ridwan sharply.

" duh... He-hey... Come on Brother Yun... If I don't commit the forbidden course of the Thousand Year Suffering, it will be a very long time to defeat him... You know that Tameng Gadjah's style is not very troublesome? Somehow I remembered the story of the death puppet Sengkuni in the Baratayudha Binangun war which he resembled Sengkuni who was very troublesome and difficult to defeat if he had used that style! " clearly Ridwan.

" Hm... You're right Ridwan... I myself am very troubled to fight it first in the ranking arena, " said Singgih agreed with Ridwan.

All the male participants nodded in agreement including Umar but not long after that they suddenly felt goosebumps all over his body which turned out to be Yuni staring at them sharply and giving off their killing aura.

" Hm... Ridwanese... I just saw that first time... What is that actually? " tanya Singgih who is very interested in the thousand-year suffering style.

But when Ridwan wanted to explain it, Yuni immediately interjected.

" It turns out you guys are as perverted as Ridwan! " said Yuni who slightly shouted.

" Why am I guilty here? Besides Danang is a man and not a woman, " asked Ridwan in his heart while rubbing his face with his palms.

" Huahhhh... Love your heart! " saidwan was frustrated.

Meanwhile in the arena has ended the next match where Cristian against ayu and in the end Cristian was the winner.

When Cristian entered the rest room of the participants, Cristian immediately laughed to see Ridwan who looked at him with a silly look.

" tgpfft.... Ahahahaha.... Ridwanese... You're really joking.... Ahahahah, " said Cristian as he continued to be held captive.

But it immediately stopped when it saw Yuni who was looking at him sharply.

" What's my fault? " ask Cristian.

Just a blink of an eye then glanced towards Yuni from Singgih to answer Cristian. Cristian immediately realized it and sat quietly beside Ridwan.

Moments later the sound of a bell rang out, signaling the next match to begin. On the big screen it looks two names that will fight...

" YUNI VS JULIAN

Soon the two of them walked into the arena. But when the game started, Julian suddenly raised his right hand and said something that made everything confused. Even the referee himself had not returned to his place and was still in the middle of the two of them.

" I give up! " call Julian.

At once everyone seemed confused with Julian who gave up before fighting.

" Hey Julian... Whatchu mean? " ask Yuni with a little annoyance.

Julian smiled hearing that "Yuni... Are you obsessed with fighting? Maybe you'll think I'm a coward but what can I do? I'm already grateful to have entered in the top 8 but if I force to fight, then the result is already visible... You are 3rd while I am only 12th, our strength is like the earth and sky... I've always realized that there's still sky above, " explains Julian.

" but-- "

" yuny... There are times when we retreat but in a good and right way... I always thought logically you know!? There is no such thing as luck that there is only the result of hard work that we have been digging... Look Ridwan... He was the weakest but with his hard work he made it to this stage... Didn't you notice? "

" After this you will see for yourself the results of his hard work... Ahhe... I talk too much... The referee announced the winner, "said Julian with a smile and looked towards the dugout where Ridwan had seen them from that window.

The referee in the middle of them smiled.

" Very wise, " Ragil murmured in the heart.

" all right... Since Julian declared surrender then the winner was Yuni... The match will be held 5 minutes from now! " the referee said with a shout.

Many of the audience were disappointed with Julian. In fact, Julian despite being ranked 12th but his strength can be juxtaposed with those who have the top 10 rankings.

The thunder that had just been silent was smiling at the decision taken by Julian.

" Not only strong but also critical thinking... Hm... It turns out that way... He had a unique power called the Netra Step... Where he could read whatever was going to happen... By undergoing special training he will be greatly improved and perhaps in the future he will become a very well-known and respected strategist, "he murmured inwardly while continuing to pay attention to Julian.

But who would have thought if Julian realized this and immediately stopped his steps and his gaze swept toward the audience.

" Weird... I felt something that threatened me but now it disappears without a trace?! " summer in the heart.

The knowing thunder smiled happily "Well, at least he felt on the right track, "he murmured inwardly.

The last match in the quarter-finals finally began. The two final participants walked into the arena.

UMAR VS SINGGIH

" They finally fought... I can't wait to see their action..., "

" right... This top-level fight bro..., "

" Who will win? "

" Of course Umar.... But Singgih is also strong bro... Hm, "

A lot of comments from the audience. The screams kept shouting at them.

" AMRA... SINGGIH'S... UMAR... SINGGIH'S... UMAR... SHAYT..., "

Meanwhile Thunder only shook his head "You will retire from martial arts if you force it to fight against Umar, Singgih... Ahhh actually I also want to see that Iron Leg fight, "the Thunder murmured softly.

Sure enough when the match was declared to start, Singgih immediately raised his right hand and declared surrender.

" I gave up "

That left everyone shocked and disappointed. There were even among the spectators who cursed Singgih.

" You sure? " the referee said.

" Reporter... I'm pretty sure, actually my leg is still injured because of my last mission a few weeks ago... Maybe for the other participants I was not a problem but if to fight Umar I could not..., "

" Umar... I'm sorry, " said Singgih regretfully.

Umar who had been silent earlier smiled and nodded "I won't let you down bro.", he said.

" So yes... Alright... Singgih declared surrender and the winner was Umar... With this the quarter-final round is declared complete... The semi-final will be 30 minutes from now! " say the referee loudly.

Thus the big screen displays all the participants who managed to qualify in the semifinals. And those names are...

RIDWAN

CRISTIAN

YUNI - YUNI

UMAR

The arena is still crowded. They were very reluctant to leave the stands despite the hotter days due to the sun during the day.

Thunder immediately made a transparent protector, in order to protect the audience. The protector is shaped like a dome but extends upwards.

" This way, everyone will be protected... Uhh... After this I want to have a picnic! " summer in the heart.

Without feeling 30 minutes have been missed. The bell was heard loudly.

[ THE DING]

Signs that the semi-final match has begun. The big screen immediately randomized the names of the participants who would fight in the first round of the semifinal round.

All the spectators looked tense. They couldn't wait to see the fight of their champion participants.

The large screen stopped scrambling the name of the participant and read already the name of the participant.

" RIDWAN VS UMAR

Suddenly everyone was silent. Moreover, the person sitting next to Thunder who had previously asked Thunder about Umar. That person immediately widened his eyes. He does not believe if Thunder's guess is right, if Umar will meet with Ridwan in the semifinals.

" Bro... You you?! " say the man did not believe.

Thunder immediately turned to look at the person and nodded "You will definitely not be disappointed to see their fight... Like I thought... They will fight it out anyway... This time we will all see how strong Umar and Ridwan have been hiding their strength" Thunder said with a smile.

He fell silent then looked at the arena seriously "Ridwan... How strong is he? " he asked in his heart.

Meanwhile in the arena there was the sound of the referee explaining the rules of the match. The referee then said the fight had begun.

" ..... GET STARTED! "

the two looked at each other seriously. This was what they had been waiting for since the start of the tournament.

" I'm so glad we can face off... Ridwan, " said Umar with a smile.

Ridwan who felt the same nodded "I am also Umar, " said Ridwan.

" Hm... Are you ready? " tasked Umar while unbinding the sword he was carrying on his back and he stuck it over the arena.

Because the sword belonging to Umar has high quality so even if it is only a sheath of his sword alone is strong, so if only he plugs on the arena will not be damaged.

" When Umar, " said Ridwan while doing the same thing that stuck his spear on the arena.

Then they looked at each other with smiles. The next few seconds, they suddenly disappeared from everyone's sight.

" Josh... Boooom.... "
