In the Japanese anime Saint Seiya, the battle with the Silver Saint Misty was the first time Seiya encountered a powerful enemy dozens of times more powerful.

In the end, Seiya accomplished an incredible miracle with his unyielding will and defeated the Silver Saint Misty. But behind this battle, there is actually a mysterious life experience of Seiya's guardian constellation Pegasus.

In the battle with Misty, Seiya said a famous saying in the entire Saint Seiya comics: "Scars are the badge of a man!"

But this famous scene is too classic, and As for people overlooking how Seiya defeated Misty.

In this battle, there was actually no protection from the goddess Cosmos, nor any assistance from teammates such as Zilong Glacier. Seiya relied entirely on his own strength to defeat the weak.

Faced with Misty's air defense wall and Marble Whirlwind Fist, Seiya was knocked into the sea twice. But Seiya also realized a truth, it can only defeat Misty in the sea.

Although Seiya also realized the Pegasus Comet Fist, it actually did not cause fatal damage to Misty. Seiya still relied on Pegasus' spinning smashing punch to drag Misty into the sea to complete the decisive victory.

Why does Seiya think that Misty can be defeated in the sea?

From a purely technical perspective, the resistance of seawater is greater than that of air. Misty's air defense wall would be ineffective. Although Seiya's Pegasus Meteor Fist will also be affected, it is obviously much smaller.

But if you look at the life experience of the guardian constellation Pegasus, there are more interesting discoveries.

In Greek mythology, Poseidon, the king of the sea, seduced the maid Medusa in the temple of Athena. The incident of desecrating the temple made the goddess Athena angry, so she turned Medusa into a snake-haired monster, and anyone or animals she looked at would turn into stone.

Later, Medusa was beheaded by the ancient Greek hero Perseus, and the two sons of Poseidon and Medusa were "born with golden swords in their hands" the giants Chrysaor and Pegasus. Gasos jumped out of her body.

So, Pegasus is actually the son of the Poseidon. Seiya actually has certain advantages in the sea.

At the end of the Sea World Chapter, Seiya attacks the Pillar of Life with his body, not just because he has the aura of the protagonist. Also because, as the son of the Sea Emperor, Tianma has a bit of home field advantage in the sea world.
