A day later, Ichika brought them to his new business which is the boxing gym. The gym building has simple design but it was amazing inside. All the equipments inside the facility looks advance and several athletes are already applying to the gym.
"Welcome to my new business venture which is my own boxing gym!"
Mirko looks excited seeing strong looking people with ripped body training inside the gym.
"Amazing! I see a lot of strong people here! Can I have a chance to fight any of them?"
Her eyes were twinkling.
"Yeah, strong people from all around the world visit this place just to train. We can request a spar with them if they're willing."
"Alright! I can't wait anymore! Let's go, Ichika!"
Mirko grabbed him in the wrist then dragged him inside the gym.
The others are watching them with squinted eyes.
"Why do I feel like Ichika made this place just for Mirko?" La Brava spoke.
"Same here." Mt. Lady agreed then the others nodded with her.

Inside the facility, the manager of the boxing gym quickly meet up with Ichika and shakes his hand.
"Thank you for taking your time on visiting us here today, Boss! As you can see, our business is booming and we're getting a lot of clients."
"I see... It's been only a week so, we have to prepare if problem arises. Please continue working hard and give our athletes the best training they need in order to win their fights. Our success is in their shoulders."
"Yes, Boss! Our gym has the best sport equipment in the entire world! Invented by the CEO of Yamagi Industries himself. The best support item inventor."
"Alright, can you show us around the facility?"
"Sure. Follow me."
The manager guided them around and explained to them about the advance equipments in the facility.
Before they noticed, the whole place became crowded by people which became unpleasant to others.
"Hm?"
Ichika saw several people carrying a large camera which is pointed only to one person which is tall guy wearing a black suit with red necktie. He seems to be someone big shot with several media swarming around him just scoop a good shot of video. He's a foreigner with blond hair, wearing a sunglasses and has arrogant demeanor while walking inside the gym. There was large gold chain hanging on his neck like a necklace.
While the manager was explaining to them,
"This gym might be for boxer athletes but we also teaches athletes from different sports who wants to improve their boxing skills like those from mixed martial arts. We also--"
"Hey! Where's the manager here? Tell him, I came here to train!" The arrogant guy shouted in English and acted like a jerk while looking around the gym.
"Yes, sir?" the manager quickly responded in his language approached him.
"I have a big fight in next two weeks and I want to spar with someone from here! I got bored with my sparing mates because they are too weak!"
The manager apologizes and bowed his head.
"I'm sorry but this boxing just opened and we still don't have any trained enough athletes to spar with you."
"Huh? I thought this is a world class boxing gym! This place is a sham!"
While the manager is apologizing, Ichika approached him from behind and tapped his shoulder.
"I'm really sorry--"
"That's enough."
"Huh? Boss?"
Ichika walked in front of him and faced the arrogant guy with a smile.
"If your looking for someone to spar, you came at the right place! Welcome to Yamagi Boxing Gym where you can experience the right training just for you!" he spoke in his language.
"A brat? Are you the owner of this place?"
"Yeah, since there's no available sparing mate for you here. I will gladly take you on."
The manager was completely shock with his words including those who understands the language.
"What?!!"
...
The arrogant guy was silent with Ichika's words.
"Pfffffft! Bwa hahahahaha!"
The arrogant guy took off his sunglasses and introduced himself.
"You don't recognize me?"
"I don't."
"Huh? I'm George 'The Destroyer' Armstrong! The Undisputed Featherweight Champion of the world!"
"I see... then that's amazing." Ichika has no reaction.
"This brat!" The arrogant guy looks pissed off.
"I don't really want to waste my time coming here but I guess it id worth teaching you a lesson about the difference between amateur and professional. Fine, let's have an exhibition match. I'll play with you for a while to kill some time."
"Thank you very much." Ichika bowed to him with service smile.
---
After that, Ichika quickly changed into his boxing outfit which is a black shorts and white shoes. While sitting on the chair, he was wrapping tightly his hands with bandage which confused everyone. The way he wrapped his hands and move his arms feels like he's been doing this for a long time.
"Ichika, this is unfair! I want to fight him too!" Mirko complained.
"Sorry, Rumi but this fight will be boxing so, there will be no kicking."
With the manager helping him wear his gloves and tying the knots, he looks worried of him.
"Boss, you're too crazy!"
"It's fine. we have to give our customer the best service." Ichika just smiled at him.
"Do you know how to box in the ring?"
"Of course, just punch him, right? Until he can't stand anymore."
The manager became more worried about him. To him, Ichika was acting too foolish that he already losing his sanity. The board of directors already warned him about his boss being reckless. He never thought that he was beyond that.
Ichika stretched his body then he ran and jumped towards the spar ring.
The arrogant guy went inside the ring in his sleeveless black shirt and black jogging pants. He is also wearing a white boxing shoes.
"Hey, Kid! It's dangerous if you don't wear any headgear. It's required for amateurs like you."
"It's fine. I don't need to wear one."
"Don't blame me later."
Just from his slacking movement, he doesn't seem to take this fight seriously and he planned to play around his opponent. Ichika knows this and he's plans to wake him up.
"Ugh! This is embarrassing! Why do I have to do this?!"
Lady Nagant in her bunny girl outfit came in the middle of the ring and walked around showing a placard.
[Round 1]
Ichika gave a thumbs up to the manager of the gym which thumbs up to him back.
*Ring!*
The bell rang for the start of the fight and placed mouthpiece on their mouth.
Ichika and the arrogant walks to the middle of the ring and everyone can already see the big difference in height and muscle mass.
When they touched their gloves, both of them took their stance.
"Huh?"
The arrogant guy felt something strange with his opponent. He's the champion yet his amateur opponent wasn't even a bit intimidated by his presence. Instead, he was the one who's being pressured. He already fought a lot of boxers in the ring with the same weight class and destroyed them all, he was supposed to be the most experience one but he was being by a kid smaller than him.
"Tch!"
The arrogant guy clicked his tongue.
"Hm?"
"What's wrong, Kid? Are you scared?"
The two of them are staring at each other, waiting for someone to pull the trigger.
"Come on! Punch me!"
Ichika was actually reading his opponents movement.
When the arrogant guy slightly opened his guard, Ichika launched a high-speed left jab which hit him in the jaw and his head flew back.
*Thud!*
His butt fell on the canvas which made him clueless of what just happened.
Ichika went to the neutral corner and wait for him.
"Huh? What the hell what was that?!" the arrogant guy was completely shock when he was down.
Everyone around was speechless when kid took down a goliath guy few seconds at the very first round.
No one was counting since there's no referee.
"Ugh! What happened!" the arrogant guy stood up.
The media was taking the fight live and they were also surprised when a undisputed champion was taken down just like that.
In Ichika's point of view, everything was nostalgic to him and he remembered the memories of his past life when he started fighting in the ring as a boxer. The memories before he switched to mixed martial arts. He was still a child running excitedly to a run-down boxing gym and meet his coach. The first thing he asked him while staring at his clenched fist,
*How does it feel to be strong?*
