Chapter 140 Boku Vs Mutated Wolverine Part 2

Constantine "Cus" D'Amato is a genius boxing trainer who has created many monsters in the world of boxing. His most famous student and also the last become the ruler of the boxing world for several years after his death.

And the boxing technique brought by Iron Mike Tyson that his opponents fear was named by boxing fans, Peek-a-Boo. A cute name for a deadly boxing technique.

Peek-a-boo is a boxing style that received its common name for the defensive hand position, which is normally placed in front of the face, like in the baby's game of the same name. The technique is thought to offer extra protection to the face whilst making it easier to jab the opponent's face. The fighter holds their gloves close to their cheeks and pulls their arms tight against their torso. Cus D'Amato didn't use the term peek-a-boo and instead referred to it as a tight defense.

The style was criticized by some because it was believed that an efficient attack could not be launched from it. However, Iron Mike Tyson proved to the world that the technique taught by his master deserves to be a nail in the history of boxing.

Peek-a-boo's key principles are built upon the "Bad intentions" concept, which emphasizes the D'Amato philosophy. The general idea is that the Peek-a-boo practitioners are counterpunchers, who contrary to accustomed ways of counterpunching perceived as constantly backing up and jabbing from a safe distance, move forward and do it with a lot of aggressiveness by constantly charging at the opponent, provoking him into throwing punches to counter, and subsequently into making mistakes to capitalize on, by creating openings and dominant angles of attack.

The technique is very suitable for Iron Mike Tyson who has a shorter body than his enemies in the heavyweight class. By taking advantage of the opponent's attack after avoiding it, Iron Mike Tyson enters the defense area and gives a nasty punch after a deadly punch.

Peek-a-boo boxing utilizes relaxed hands with the forearms in front of the face and the fist at the nose-eye level. Other unique features include side-to-side head movements, bobbing, weaving, and blindsiding the opponent. A fighter using the Peek a boo style is drilled with the stationary dummy and on the bag until the fighter is able to punch by rapid combinations with what D'Amato called "bad intentions". The style allows swift neck movements as well as quick duckings and bad returning damage, usually by rising uppercuts or even rising hooks.

It was a surprise when Boku decided to use this technique against the Mutated Wolverine. Boku's height and Mutated Wolverine are not much different, which may be why Boku decided to use this technique.

Coupled with Mutated Wolverine's claws that are able to stun his enemies with one touch, Boku is very careful with this. There are two ways to avoid weapons from enemies, Flight or Fight.

Flight by keeping a distance from the enemy and attacking him with long-range weapons. When the enemy approaches, we must immediately retreat and keep him busy with attack after attack from a distance. The battle will end with the enemy stopping his pursuit or he will die from the onslaught of our ranged weapons.

However, this method can only be done when we have a weapon with an attack range that exceeds the enemies. However, if it turns out that the enemy has a weapon that has a longer range, the second method is more appropriate.

Fight, by approaching the enemy so that the range of weapons becomes meaningless. Entering the enemy's line of defense forced them to fight on the same ground. However, this method can only be done when we have the ability to maneuver faster than the enemy so that we can quickly change positions every time we successfully perform a counterattack.

Both methods have their respective strengths and weaknesses. But in essence, both methods are based on one thing, namely "Range Management". When to attack, when to retreat, when to dodge, when to counterattack, all these things must be considered quickly in battle.

So what is really needed is how to get to the right position. Therefore, in every martial art the first thing that will be learned is how to position the body correctly. Like a baby who has just started to stand up, he must learn how to sit properly, stand properly, and walk properly.

In martial arts, this skill is called footwork.

Peek-a-boo footwork is aimed to close the distance, crowd the opponent, cut off his escape routes, negate his reach advantage, and create dominant angles for attack simultaneously. To be able to slip and counter the opponent's punches, the practitioner should be able to do it from a neutral or near-neutral stance, with his pelvis squared up in parallel against the opponent's pelvis, for it creates more room for the lateral upper-body movement side-to-side with more amplitude, and places conventional boxers in an unfamiliar position relatively to the Peek-a-boo practitioners.

Even so, Boku is not someone who has Boxing Martial Roots, but Silat Martial Roots. So he made a slight change from Iron Mike Tyson's Peek-a-boo boxing footwork.

Using Kembangan move as bait, Boku creates a blindsight for the Mutated Wolverine to attack and hides his true attack. With one of Mutated Wolverine's eyes which is already blind, it makes it easier for Boku to limit his enemy's vision with deceptive Kembangan and feint movements.

Tiger Form serves to make his body more flexible and his movements faster to be able to enter the opponent's defense area and provide punches and stab attacks.

The spear that had been halved was strapped to the back of his arm with the sharp tip of the spear slightly sticking out of his fist. So that every time Boku hits, he also gives a small stab to the Mutated Animal's body.

Boku knew that his spear made of only wood wouldn't be able to pierce the bones of the Mutated Wolverine even its skin might not be penetrated. Therefore he always aimed for the soft part between the bones of the Mutated Wolverine. Such as fat between the chin and neck cavities, the diaphragm under the breastbone, and other parts commonly called the Hampal Point by silat practitioners.

That way even though Boku can't injure the outside of the Mutated Wolverine's body he can still damage the soft flesh inside his enemy's body.

Moku nodded and admired Boku's genius in this fight. He took advantage of everything at his disposal and gave thought time to a Mutated Wolverine who was much bigger and stronger than himself.

*BAM! *BAM! *BAM! *BAM! *BAM! *BAM! *BAM! *BAM! *BAM!

The battle continued, the area around them was a mess with several trees falling from the Mutated Wolverine's rampaging attacks. He began to have difficulty breathing due to Boku's attacks which were always aimed at his soft flesh.

His hard body was starting to look bruised everywhere due to the blood network that was blocked by the hard stab of the spearheads tied to Boku's hands.

*BAM! *BAM! *BAM! *BAM! *BAM! *BAM! *BAM! *BAM! *BAM!

The increasingly desperate Mutated Wolverine began to rampage more brutally. As if expending every stored energy from his body, he did claw after claw attack. However Boku easily got out of his attack range and continued to retreat while moving from one position to another quickly.

Mutated Wolverine only has one eye that is still functioning makes it difficult for him to read Boku's movements. Until the Mutated Wolverine's burst of energy runs out and Boku goes back into his defense area.

*BAM! *BAM! *BAM! *BAM! *BAM! *BAM! *BAM! *BAM! *BAM!

Boku doesn't hesitate to give Mutated Wolverine blow after hard blow. Its close range made it difficult for the Mutated Wolverine to muster power using its claw attacks. Every time he swung his arm, Boku always ducked and didn't forget to give an uppercut that hit Mutated Wolverine's chin.

*BAM! *BAM! *BAM! *BAM! *BAM! *BAM! *BAM! *BAM! *BAM!

Mutated Wolverine is at his wits end and uses his sharp teeth to attack Boku. Boku knew that Mutated Wolverine's teeth weren't as dangerous as his claws but his incredibly strong jaws could lock him up and make him could not dodge the Mutated Wolverine's next claw attack. 𝑓𝒓𝚎e𝓌𝘦𝘣𝘯𝘰𝐯𝒆𝑙.c𝚘m

Because of that he quickly made an uppercut and forced Mutated Wolverine's mouth to close. Due to the force of Boku's blow, the Mutated Wolverine's head was thrown upwards and made his stomach side defenseless.

*BAM!

Boku jumped up and positioned his knees closer to his stomach. "[Kangaroo Form]!" The inner power stored throughout Boku's bones and joints that was previously used for Tiger Form flowed into every muscle in his thighs and made his thighs seem to enlarge.

With the same burst of energy as when he jumped and blinded Mutated Wolverine in one eye, Boku kicked his enemy in the stomach with both feet.

*BOOOMM!!

As if being hit by the head of a battering ram, Mutated Wolverine's stomach bent and his internal organs hit hard. All the blood flow that was blocked by Boku's previous blow broke and blood spurted out of Mutated Wolverine's mouth.

He was sent flying backward for five meters before rolling over and losing consciousness for a moment.

Boku didn't catch up to continue his attack. He got back on his feet and prepared for the Mutated Wolverine's surprise attack. He still hadn't found out where the last Mutated Wolverine's mana organ was and what its powers are.

This hidden power can ambush him when he's off guard and can turn the tide of battle.

Just as he thought, the Mutated Wolverine came back to his feet with bloodshot eyes and hair standing on end. He was no longer standing on two legs like before, but crawling with his buttocks raised.

Boku is ready for phase two.
