Chapter 9 Makunouchi 1-Step Guidance
Chapter 9 Makunouchi 1-Step Guidance
At the Kamogawa Boxing Gym, Luo Hao, as usual, served as a boxing sparring partner, silently enduring the heavy blows from professional boxers.
He was wearing protective gear, but even so, the domineering force of the punch still penetrated the gear and was deeply imprinted on his skin.
As night fell, Luo Hao returned home and gently took off his clothes. What caught his eyes were the blue and purple marks on his body.
He stood in front of the mirror, a trace of determination flashed in his eyes. In the dead of night, he carefully applied medicinal wine on his body to relieve the pain.
As the days passed, Luo Hao discovered that the bruises on his body were gradually decreasing and new scars were no longer appearing frequently.
He wondered in his heart, could it be that his body was quietly changing?
So he found Coach Makunouchi and asked him the reason.
Coach Makunouchi looked at him with a smile and said slowly: "Luo Hao, the human body is amazing. When you punch day after day, you will find that the power of your punch is growing invisibly.
Similarly, your body is now gradually getting used to the baptism of fists and becoming tougher.
In short, your body is transforming from a novice to a professional boxer’s physique.”
In fact, the truth is very simple. There is an old saying: If you practice boxing without practicing Kung Fu when you get old, it will be all in vain. The word "Kung Fu" here means hard work, and can also be understood as the core strength of a boxer.
Why is it that some people who are now called masters practice their boxing skills very beautifully and sound so powerful when performing in front of their disciples and audiences?
However, once he got into the ring, he immediately turned into a cuckold and would collapse as soon as he was hit by one punch. This was the result of not having the baptism of actual combat.
Without strong resistance to blows, it is just a paper tiger, completely without any confrontational power.
Some people may not believe it, so let me give you a simple example to illustrate.
Take heavyweight boxing champion Tyson for example. Although he doesn't know Chinese martial arts, you can ask him to practice Tai Chi for three to five days.
Three or five days later, if Tyson says he can kill someone with Tai Chi, everyone will probably believe him.
Therefore, boxing is just a form. What is most important is the intangible thing that the human body obtains after long-term and hard training - "gong".
Luo Hao is in a very good mood now. He has not only made money, but also improved his overall physical fitness. It is really killing two birds with one stone.
At the same time, someone knocked on Chairman Kamogawa's office.
"Knock knock!"
"Please come in."
After the office door was pushed open, President Kamogawa found that it was Step forward.
"One step, what do you want from me?"
“President, I think Luo Hao has a great talent for boxing, and we should speed up his learning process.
Maybe, Luo Hao will give you a very good answer."
……
The sun sets and it's time to go home from school. Ever since Luo Hao became a boxing sparring partner at Kamogawa Boxing Gym, the "bicycle tornado" has completely disappeared.
But this road has not become peaceful, because now there is an even more terrifying "runaway maniac".
"Sprint!" Luo Hao rushed forward with his schoolbag on his back. His sprint caused the skirt of the young lady who was bending over to buy things on the roadside to flutter.
"Eh hee hee..."
“White, finally saw it.
This crazy running kid is much cuter than the previous kid on a bicycle."
A middle-aged man was walking with his head tilted, his eyes fixed on the other side of the street, while picking his nose.
"boom!"
"Ouch! Who is so wicked to throw a banana peel?"
In the Yachuan Boxing Gym, Luo Hao had a rare moment of leisure today. He stood alone in the corner, and the sandbag danced with the wind of his fists, making a dull "bang bang bang" sound.
"Luo Hao, come here!" A call broke the silence in the hall.
When Luo Hao heard this, his movements stopped abruptly. He turned his head and looked among the crowd, looking for the source of the sound.
Finally, he caught sight of that familiar figure - Coach Makunouchi, standing on the boxing ring and waving at him.
Luo Hao was delighted, as if the goddess of luck was waving at him.
He hurried to the ring, wondering in his heart, "Could it be that I will be lucky enough to receive guidance from Coach Makunouchi today?"
"Coach Makunouchi, do you have something to talk to me about?" Luo Hao asked respectfully while standing in front of the boxing ring.
Coach Makunouchi smiled slightly, with a hint of admiration in his eyes: "Luo Hao, I see that you have been training hard recently and your body has been well trained.
It's just that your punches seem scattered and lack order.
I happen to be free today, so I will teach you how to punch."
Hearing this, Luo Hao's heart felt like being hit by a huge rock, and he was so excited that he almost couldn't breathe.
He just felt his heart beating faster and faster, making a "thump, thump" sound.
He secretly exclaimed: "Makunouchi Ippon, he was once the Japanese featherweight champion, and he has the ability to challenge for the world-class boxing champion gold belt.
Today he actually offered to coach me, this is simply pie in the sky!"
Luo Hao's heart was filled with gratitude and awe. He knew that this was a rare opportunity and he must seize it.
[Here I would like to share some basic information about the experience of Makunouchi Ippo, the protagonist of the original novel of The First Divine Fist.
One step in the game suffered a serious brain injury, which greatly reduced his athletic ability and health.
After suffering from post-traumatic brain syndrome, he was already confident of winning the match against Guevara.
The new one-step rotation displacement has left opponents helpless, unable to control the distance, sometimes dazed and losing the game.
From then on, I had no choice but to retire. 】
Luo Hao immediately climbed onto the ring, and Coach Makunouchi had already put his hands on the boxing ring.
"Put on these gloves."
Luo Hao thought to himself, "Aren't they all boxing gloves? What's the difference? No matter what, I'll just listen to Coach Makunouchi."
Luo Hao took off his original boxing gloves and put on the gloves given by Coach Makunouchi.
Masaru Aoki and Tatsuya Kimura, who were doing strength training in the distance, also saw Luo Hao being called to the ring.
Both of them have a lot of experience, having entered the Kamogawa Boxing Gym one step earlier than the other, but due to their limited talent, their records are mediocre.
However, their obsession and faith in boxing have never been extinguished.
So the two of them stayed in the boxing gym because they didn't want to lose the faith in their hearts.
"Aoki, look, Yibu actually came down to coach Luo Hao himself. You should know that he is just a sparring partner." A hint of doubt flashed in Tatsuya Kimura's eyes.
“Yeah, Kimura, I’m a little confused too.
Let’s see what happens first.”
On the boxing ring, Makunouchi coach held the boxing target in his right hand and shouted at Luo Hao: "Don't hesitate, just hit me directly."
This was Luo Hao’s first time shooting at a moving target. He had no idea what to do and was actually very panicked.
"But... I don't even know how to fight?"
Coach Makunouchi shook the punching target in his right hand and said, "Just hit the punching target I set out. Move quickly and don't think too much. Just hit it directly."
Qingmu, who was doing strength training in the distance, saw Luo Hao's silly look and laughed out loud, "Hehehe, Kimura, Luo Hao is so stupid, it seems his brain is not very smart!"
