Should we focus the next chapter on to Miguel’s new power, or dive into a rematch where Miguel truly lets loose?

His speed reached a point where his sparring partners—Hawk and Demetri—couldn't even see the setup. But it was the mental shift that changed everything. The "Beast" was a state of total efficiency. In the Sekai Taikai qualifiers, Miguel didn't taunt. He didn't show mercy. He simply dismantled his opponents with a terrifying, surgical precision that left the crowd silent.

Johnny watched from the sidelines, seeing a reflection of his younger self, but with a discipline he never possessed. Robby saw a rival who had moved past "rivalry" into something untouchable.

In the final match against a powerhouse fighter from the Korean dojo, Miguel was pushed to the brink. His back flared with phantom pain, and for a second, the old fear crept in. But instead of breathing through it like Daniel taught, or getting angry like Johnny taught, Miguel harnessed the pressure. He moved with a feral, explosive energy—a "Beast" fueled by the realization that he no longer needed a sensei to tell him who he was.

He won with a strike so fast the cameras had to replay it three times. He didn't celebrate. He just bowed—a beast who had finally found his own cage.
