Chapter 55 Value
The new year has begun, and the development of the Port Mafia has gradually been put on the right track. The internal affairs are in good order, and the external affairs are suppressed except for the Takase Society, which can still fight against the Port Mafia.
With his development on the right track, Mori Ougai began to pursue a new goal - he wanted to obtain a supernatural business license.
He immediately remembered the last time he went fishing by the river and encountered Zhongtian Shantouhuo. It was a pity that Ace was online at that time, otherwise he would have brought up the matter to test Zhongtian Shantouhuo's attitude.
【What is a special-purpose business license? 】
"It is a document issued by the government that legalizes organized paranormal activities."
[…?] Ace thought hard and asked: [Is it illegal for people with special abilities to use their special abilities? What a strange rule.]
"That's why I say it's 'organized'."
The underground forces that have gained a foothold in Yokohama are all supernatural organizations, but without a supernatural business license, they are not legal organizations. Ordinary mafia organizations in Japan are legal as long as they are officially registered, but supernatural organizations still need supernatural business licenses, otherwise the supernatural activities carried out by the organization are illegal.
Among the existing underground organizations in Yokohama, none of them has a license to operate a supernatural power business.
However, this is not a big deal in the current situation. After all, Yokohama's government is weak. Even if people do things without a permit, Yokohama's government cannot do anything about it. Otherwise, the previous leader would not have destroyed Yokohama in the past two years.
But things will be different in the future. If the Port Mafia develops as expected and becomes the dark side of Yokohama, and the Three-moment Plan goes smoothly, the role of the Special Agents will gradually become apparent, and gradually increase, supporting the daytime of Yokohama. By then, the authorities will have the power to control the dark side of Yokohama, and the Port Mafia will completely become the leading organization of Yokohama.
At that time, the existence of the supernatural business license will become very important, and the further the time moves on, the more power the supernatural special agent department has, and the more difficult it is to obtain the supernatural business license.
Well, I still have to make a plan to get a special power business license as soon as possible.
Furthermore, Ace's Haki teaching progress has not made any progress at all.
Rather, after seeing how Ace taught, Moriogai just let it go.
What are the words "Imagine that you are controlling every bit of strength in your body and concentrating them in one place", "You mobilize the strength in your body and release it outwards", "Feel the sounds of everything in the world, listen carefully to what the trees, water, and flowers are saying"... You don't even say you understand this kind of language, you just ask how to do it! ?
Every member who was receiving instruction and heard these words looked confused.
The colonel sat cross-legged and closed his eyes, trying to imagine and listen, and then fell asleep while sitting; Nakahara Chuuya completely misunderstood, he dispersed his gravity power throughout his body, and then asked if this was the case; Dazai Osamu... Dazai Osamu went into the water while listening, and said confidently, "I'm listening to the sound of the water"...
Mori Ougai told him that he couldn't understand this, and he himself had no idea how to follow this. He always felt that it would be a complete waste of time if he did it.
Then an idea suddenly occurred to Ace, and he said, "When my former partners and I learned Haki, we learned it in battle. Maybe they need to learn it in battle."
Just this one sentence caused all the middle and high-level members of the Port Mafia to be beaten for a whole month when they had no tasks to do.
And in order to show that everyone is treated equally, even A was not spared.
In order to escape the beating, A personally handled many of the tasks that were originally assigned to his subordinates, and he wanted to act busy every day as if he was on a business trip.
Ozaki Kouyo was much smarter. The intelligence department she managed had a lot of things to do every day. As long as she said that some intelligence was very important and she was too busy to leave, Ace would directly say that he understood and leave.
Chuuya Nakahara is extremely strong. Originally, his special ability could completely resist Ace's, but Ace said, "You have been using gravity to fight me, how can you feel Haki?" So Chuuya Nakahara stopped using his special ability, and then... well.
Everyone, everyone is stuck at the first hurdle in learning dominance - understanding.
No one could understand how to feel the so-called domineering power. Mori Ouwai thought about it and felt that this was not a solution. It was just a waste of time and it would delay him from making money, so the matter was left unresolved.
Anyway, the method has been taught to everyone. As for who can learn it later or no one can learn it, it all depends on God.
During the teaching period, Ace took the initiative to mention another kind of Haki - Observation Haki, which made Moriogai really itchy.
Predicting the opponent's movements, sensing the position and number of objects outside the field of vision, sensing the strength of others, sensing the thoughts and emotions of living things, to some extent, this is even a bit like foreknowledge! And it's not just foreknowledge, this kind of perception ability is just like a special ability corresponding to intelligence professionals, who can get the deployment of other people's troops in a very short time!
When Mori Ogai said this to Ace, Ace also said, "Ah? That's right, if you cultivate your Observation Haki to the extreme, you can indeed predict the future for a period of time. From what I know, it seems that BIGMOM has one."
When Sen Ouwai heard this, he became even more greedy.
If it succeeds, it would be equivalent to artificially cultivating a person with predictive abilities!
But this daydream was soon broken. It was difficult for anyone to understand how to learn Haki, not just him. Even Ace himself was not very good at learning it, let alone teaching others. He himself was only at the stage of predicting the opponent's moves.
Sen Ouwai couldn't help but sigh.
"Ace-kun, if you work harder, you might be able to practice your Observation Haki to the point where you can predict things," he encouraged secretly.
The possibility of others is almost zero, but the possibility of Ace is still very high! Anyway, Ace is tied to him now, so he is also a member of the Port Mafia. If he knows it, doesn't it mean that someone in the Port Mafia knows it!
Ace didn't think much about it, "Hmm? That's a little difficult, but I'll try my best!"
Ace set a goal for himself with full energy, and then looked at the paper in Mori Ogai's hand: [War theory... transformation of capital... weakness of human nature... what is this? ]
"It's a bibliography." Sen Ouwai crossed out the book titles at the top and added new names at the bottom.
Ace looked at a few names, but none of them were the type he liked to watch. He felt sleepy after watching them for a while, so he couldn't help but ask: "Do you want to watch these next?"
Then why not? Ace really didn't want to be forced to watch something he didn't like and force himself to close his eyes when he was sleepy.
Fortunately, Mori Ogai said, "No, these are all books I have read before, and I am going to give them to Dazai to read." He counted ten books after the line he drew last time and drew another line. "He has talent in this area. If we cultivate him well, he may be better than me in this area."
Ace thought for a rare moment, [You seem to think highly of him.]
He could see that, besides Morio, the people he focused on training the most were Dazai Osamu and Nakahara Chuuya, but in comparison, it seemed that he was more attentive to Dazai Osamu.
Mori Ogai smiled, "If he is given enough time to grow, maybe after I step down, he will take this position." He paused, as if he had thought of something, and added to himself, "It is also possible that he will kill me and then take this position."
[Not really, I don't think Zhi is that kind of person? ]
Sen Ou remained silent.
Did he start the bad thing first, or did he do it in front of Dazai Osamu? How could it be impossible for a child who was so similar to him to do the same thing?
However, Mori Ougai did not intend to tell this conjecture to Ace. He knew what kind of answer the other party would give, so there was no need.
"Ding Dong."
Mori Ouwai's attention was attracted by the ringing of the cell phone, "This ringing..."
[Ah, it's Line, right? It seems to be very popular recently, so I downloaded it and added Zhi and Zhong as my friends. Hongye is also exploring this recently, and Dazuo doesn't seem to be very good at it... Whose message is this? ]
"Let me see—" Mori Ogai picked up his phone and turned on the screen. Several messages popped up, "It's Dazai-kun."
"Refreshing, bright and full of energy...Mr. Mori, I found something interesting!"
"Fresh, bright and full of vitality...: Guess what I found?"
"Clear, bright and energetic...: Forget it, I'm too lazy to wait for your news, so I'll just say it straight - I found out that the people from the Flag Society are investigating Zhongye's background."
"Refreshing, bright and energetic suicide: This software is really annoying. The name is long and it doesn't even show the whole thing! Anyway, Chuuya might already know the truth that Aramatsu said."
After reading the news, Sen Ouwai's expression became unpredictable.
Ace noticed that something was wrong with Mori Ougai's mood, so he asked, "What's wrong? Um, do you know now that there will be danger?"
He still remembered what Mori Ougai had told him before, that knowing some things too early would not be good for Zhongyuan Zhongye.
[Is the enemy very strong? The kind that even the Port Mafia can't protect him? ]
Mori Ouwai sighed, "It's not because of this..."
He knew what Ace was thinking the moment he heard it, or rather, he was already used to it. Judging from his protective personality, he must be thinking about getting rid of the enemy that would threaten his companions.
"Don't worry about it. It's not a big problem. I can handle it."
Faced with Ace who didn't understand the roundabout way of speaking, Moriogai didn't hesitate to explain to him clearly that he could solve the problem, so as to dispel his idea of interfering.
But this flag will...
Sen Ouwai narrowed his eyes slightly.
He originally wanted the pianist to use the Flag Society to monitor Nakahara Chuuya to prevent him from finding out the truth about Aramatsu through other channels. However, he never expected that the Flag Society would take the initiative to help Nakahara Chuuya investigate the matter behind his back.
He had never expected that the relationship between the Flag Society and Nakahara Chuuya would develop to this extent in just one year. However, the people of the Flag Society had dared to disobey his orders behind his back, so he would have to reconsider the treatment of the Flag Society in the future.
Those who disobey the leader's orders may betray him at any time for some reason.
The promotion path originally planned for the flag club has now been completely scrapped.
They are all talented young people who could have been brought into the core circle in the future. It's such a pity.
