With eager anticipation, Satoshi pursed his lips as he assumed his position on one end of the field. As for Bucky Barnes, he walked forward exuding sheer confidence as he also stood on the other end of the field. This was the first time he would actually go all out to fight Satoshi, and he was looking forward to it.
Back then, when he first tested Satoshi's strength, he was holding back a little too much. Although Satoshi barely won against him, he didn't put that against him. It was a well-deserved win, but he didn't disclose the fact that he was half-hearted during the entire contest.
But now was a different story. Now that the matter of the World Eater was coming at them, Bucky Barnes had to show Satoshi his full potential. He wanted to reveal the peak that humans could achieve even if they weren't blessed to be a Manager.
