The origins of this tale trace back around two years prior when a notorious nationwide high school gang known as Nexus had spread its poisonous influence across the country. Their merciless leader, Kim Chun Soo, was challenged by a bold young rival named Kim Han Jun. That is the reason why fans of the series are really excited about the release date of the upcoming Hectopascals Chapter 57.
Though Kim Han Jun initially believed he had soundly defeated Nexus, they vengefully retaliated by fabricating evidence and filing a lawsuit crammed with lies against him. Through their deceitful manipulation of the legal system, Kim Han Jun was dealt a crushing defeat in court.
To pay the egregious settlement that was imposed, his father was forced to sell the beloved gym he had spent his life building up.
After enduring this grave injustice, Kim Han Jun swore a solemn oath to abstain from further fights, realizing that in this corrupt world, victory in combat meant nothing without money to back it up.
That was when fate intervened, and he crossed paths with Oh Jun Woo, the prodigious youngest self-made tycoon in the country, who could nonchalantly blow his nose on million-won bills.
Oh Jun Woo harbored the same burning desire as Kim Han Jun: to demolish the nefarious Kim Chun Soo once and for all. With Oh’s vast wealth and Kim’s physical strength, the alliance between them seemed destined to ultimately achieve vengeance and victory in their righteous quest.
Recap and Review
In the action-packed previous chapter, we were introduced to the formidable Kim Ji Hyuk, who fully exemplified his daunting reputation as the Human Bull.
However, his wily opponent, Nam In Su, had plenty of cunning tricks hidden up his sleeve. Their intense mano-a-mano showdown was surely destined to be remembered as an all-time classic fight.
While the Bull possessed massive raw power, he was sorely lacking in wit and guile. Even after repeatedly falling victim to the same deceptive tactics, the dull-minded Kim kept foolishly taking Nam’s bait.
Though Kim could still leverage his freakish strength to keep battling despite accumulating serious damage, Nam’s superior stratagems and ring generalship gave him a decisive tactical advantage.
In the early going, the spectators had written off Nam as useless against the seemingly unstoppable juggernaut Kim. But doubts soon crept into the minds of the onlookers about the Bull’s purported indomitability. The crowd anxiously waited for Kim to somehow turn the tables and regain control of the fight, but to no avail.
Spoilers and Expectations
Nam knew he had to stay extremely cautious at all times, fully aware that one crushing explosive blow from Kim’s fists could instantly end it all. Oddly, both combatants seemed nonchalantly unconcerned by this fact, keeping their carefree smiles plastered across their battered faces.
Just when the increasingly nervous audience thought they’d already seen every trick each fighter could muster, Nam launched a perfectly timed and executed knee strike with devastating power, revealing his earlier attacks had merely been an elaborate setup for this decisive finishing blow. Yet the stubborn Bull stubbornly refused to collapse and quit.
