Eikichi, Abe and Saejima, who know that even Ryuji is no match for Nanno ’ s ‘ Hokuto Shin Ken ’ style martial arts, dig around until they find an incriminating fact-Nanno has a lolita complex and bring the girl that got him in trouble, Myou-chan ( who always has a black strip over her eyes ) to the fight, and threaten to tell everyone if he doesn ’ t lose to Ryuji.
