The long-awaited fights are finally here in the newest chapter! The Allied Gang is up against the leaders of the four crews.
Hudson and Zack Lee are taking on Shin Ah-Reum and Min Ji Ho, Vasco, and Vin Jin are facing Bak Hyeok Jin, Eli Jang is fighting Hyeon Sang-jin, and Daniel Park is up against Kang Jinchan.
At first, it looked like the Allied Gang was struggling, and the leaders of the four crews seemed way stronger.
But turns out, the Allied Gang was just testing them. Once they got serious, everything flipped, and they started dominating.
Kang Jinchan was showing off his copying skills to Daniel Park, but by the end, Daniel reminded him who the real king of copying is. Hudson even took down Shin Ah-Reum with just one punch!

Allied vs Leaders of Four Crews of Busan
Shin Ah-Reum vs Hudson
Lookism 535 starts with Shin Ah-Reum and Hudson squaring off. Shin Ah-Reum already knew about Hudson and thought he was here to mess with his business.
He mocked Hudson, saying that he already controls Ansan and even has Seoul locked down for his drinking business, so why is he in Busan?
Shin Ah-Reum had no idea Hudson and the others came to take down the four crews. Hudson just teased him, saying that instead of running a business properly, Shin Ah-Reum is trying to take it by force.

Meanwhile, Zack Lee is up against Min Ji Ho. The fight starts, but things don’t go well for Zack and Hudson.
Shin Ah-Reum easily dodges Hudson’s punches and counters without breaking a sweat. Since Hudson learned to fight from Taesoo Ma, who only uses punches, that’s all Hudson relies on.
Shin Ah-Reum throws a flurry of punches at Hudson while Min Ji Ho takes down Zack Lee with no effort and assumes Hudson is the real leader.
Over in Area #2, Bak Hyeok has Vasco and Vin Jin in trouble. He grabs both of them and slams them to the ground, then lands a hard punch on Vin Jin. Vasco panics, seeing Vin Jin hurt, but Bak Hyeok just laughs and says, “Why are you worried about a dead guy?”
In Area #3, Eli Jang is up against Hyeon Sang-jin, who fights with sharp finger blades. Hyeon Sang-jin seems wild and unpredictable, but he doesn’t realize Eli’s got real animal instinct.
In Area #4, Daniel is up against Kang Jinchan. Daniel can’t land a single hit because Kang keeps dodging every attack and even makes fun of him, saying if Daniel doesn’t manage to hit him soon, he might just fall asleep. Then Kang takes it a step further and starts copying Daniel’s moves, using them right back at him.
Zack Lee’s Comeback Punch
Back in Area #1, Hudson, as usual, had a plan. He was pushing Shin Ah-Reum into a corner on purpose. Once Shin Ah-Reum had nowhere to run, Hudson landed a punch straight to his shoulder, knocking him down.
Min Ji Ho tries to go after Hudson, but Zack Lee isn’t out of the fight yet. He steps in, and even though Min Ji Ho doesn’t take Zack seriously, Zack ends up defeating him with one punch.
Vin Jin Loses Control
Over in Area #2, Vasco and Vin Jin are still dealing with Bak Hyeok. Vasco clears things up, saying he’s not actually worried about Vin Jin, he is worried about Bak Hyeok because Vin Jin has completely lost control and might end up killing him. Vin Jin grabs Bak Hyeok’s leg and says, “Let’s play.”
Then we jump back to Eli Jang in Area #3, who unleashes his Animal Instinct, and the scene shifts again to Daniel.

Daniel Turns the Tables
This time, Daniel’s done messing around. He gets serious, shows off his own copy skills, and suddenly appears behind Kang Jinchan.
The chapter ends with Daniel mocking Kang, saying, “So there’s someone in Busan who can copy too? I can copy as well. Nice to meet you.”

What To Expect From Lookism 536
Lookism 536 will probably continue the fights between the Allied members and the four crews of Busan leaders.
Now that the Allied members are getting serious, things are looking in their favor. Eli Jang has gone into his animal instinct mode, Daniel hasn’t even used Ultra Instinct yet but still seems to have the upper hand. Vin Jin has lost control, so it’s likely he will take down Bak Hyeok without much trouble.
As for the King of Busan, Jingrang, he still has not shown up. But in Lookism 535, his second-in-command appeared and was heading for James Lee. It looks like the Allied members will defeat the leaders, and dismantle the four crews, and Kitae Kim might step in to face Jingrang himself.
