In response to Shi Bai's question, Hinata Hajime only answered with two words and four syllables.
The artificial hope, who was much taller than Shibai (Wuji), glanced at Shibai with a seemingly arrogant but actually empty gaze, and said in an emotionless, cold, mechanical tone: "Boring."
"Well - although I also guessed this answer." Shi Bai did not lose heart at all. He dodged Zhan Ren Hai's attack so fast that it seemed as if his body had appeared two clones.
Shibai didn't think that Junko Enoshima would choose to escape, and the old school building was so small. Since Kitsunosuke couldn't detect Junko Enoshima's location, her location could be inferred in reverse. After all, there were fewer places without surveillance in this old school building.
"Well, although I really like playing hide-and-seek..." Shibai said in a slightly troubled tone, "Student Zhanren, are you chasing me a little too closely?"
At this moment, Zhan Jian Hai showed his identity as a soldier who would complete the order even at death, just like a toy that would not stop until the battery ran out of power. The attack in his hands was much more powerful than any other human that Shibai had seen.
After all, in this world, he was a pacifist, while in the previous world, what he saw were more battles between superpowers and groups of people holding guns.
It is rare to be able to reach this level of physical skills at this age. In addition to his own talent, the experience of Zhan Jian Hai over the years is definitely very interesting.
Even if it was the swordsman of his class, the high school level swordsman, Heiya Sanpei, she would probably only be able to hold out and not be able to win easily.
But - Shiba glanced at Hinata-kun, who had remained quiet and had no intention of getting involved in these things, and decided to end the battle quickly.
When Zhan Ren Hai first faced him, the murderous aura on his body was not too obvious. At that time, Zhan Ren Hai had not yet mentioned the intention to kill Shi Bai. But after Shi Bai let the members of the Student Union run away, Zhan Ren Hai's aura immediately changed.
In anime and TV series, villains often start out talking too much, and the protagonists often die because they don't make up for it. Shi Bai said that he doesn't have these bad habits, and since Zhan Jian wants to kill him, he naturally can't just passively accept it.
During such a long time, because of the gentle sword of Motoyoshi Masamu, and because he never encountered anything that would affect his emotions, Shibai thought he had completely forgotten the impact of the previous world.
But this is impossible.
The character of human beings in the world is largely influenced by the external environment and developed through what we see and hear. Everything we experience in the world will subtly change a person.
After five years of being immersed in the mafia environment, his essence has not changed, but in many places, Shibai has changed without even realizing it.
This change cannot be said to be good or bad, but in the current situation, any decision made subconsciously clearly carries the habits of the Mafia.
Feeling that she couldn't delay any longer, Shibai kicked Zhan Ren Hai in the chest. Zhan Ren Hai had expected this and crossed her arms in front of her to block the blow. She ignored the numbness in her muscles due to the force and shook her wrist. The short knife hidden in her sleeve appeared in her hand again.
Zhan Ren Hai rushed forward at an extremely fast speed, holding a small knife in each hand. She was like a ninja with special abilities who could use clones - but this was just an illusion caused by the excessive speed. In just one second, Zhan Ren Hai moved back and forth, making it difficult for Shi Bai to capture her movements.
In the brief confrontation, Zhan Ren Hai had already realized that she could not expect to kill him with one blow, so she chose to use the structure of the room. Because in order to prepare in advance, she was already familiar with the structure of this old school building, at least more familiar than Shi Bai!
Zhan Ren Hai originally thought that her actions could somewhat confuse Shi Bai's eyes, but she did not expect that this seemingly slender boy could easily determine her position, almost scratching her cheek, and bright red blood slowly dripped down.
At the same time, she threw several small objects from her arms to the ground. With the sound of explosions, gray-white smoke immediately filled this small area.
Shi Bai hadn't expected this trick, and before he could control his breathing, thick and suffocating white smoke invaded his throat, causing him to cough subconsciously a few times.
However, he saw a tiny, blinding light coming towards him with his peripheral vision - or rather, the white smoke made Shi Bai more certain about where the sound of breaking air came from.
Shibai narrowed his eyes slightly, because there were too many of them, dodging was the best solution instead of blocking. But Zhan Jian Hai seemed to have guessed his behavior, and gunshots followed.
The smoke completely blocked Shibai's vision. Since he didn't have to use his eyes to see anyway, Shibai simply closed his eyes and used his equally sensitive ears to sense the location of Zhan Ren Hai.
Found it——!
The distance was a little far, and Shi Bai suddenly thought of an interesting trick. He threw his original body out neatly, and then his figure disappeared and turned into a sharp blade. At the moment when Zhan Jian Hai turned his head to avoid it, he appeared behind him.
Because of this action, pink cherry blossom petals appeared around him, but they disappeared in an instant, and with □□ as a cover, no one would notice this scene.
As Zhan Ren Hai turned his head in disbelief, Shi Bai swung his sword, leaving a deep wound on Zhan Ren Hai's back, and blood instantly splattered on his face.
The wound was deep enough, but not fatal. Shibai was about to ask where Enoshima Junko was, but he didn't expect that after the smoke gradually dissipated, he noticed the sharp stick that was broken by brute force.
What made his back shiver was the position of the wooden stick - if Shibai had not used that sudden attack just now, when his vision was blocked and his eyes were closed, when he attacked Zhan Jian Hai, it would definitely pierce his body.
If he didn't make a final move at this time, there would definitely be endless trouble. Before Zhan Renhai climbed up, the blade in Shibai's hand emitted a silver-white light, and a thin layer of blood mist even seemed to spread over the fatal wound.
One solved, one left. Shibai had no expression on his face, and he did not confirm the location of Enoshima Junko with Kitsunesuke, but walked directly towards the monitoring room.
If he was Enoshima Junko, even if he didn't appear at the scene, he would definitely see everything through the surveillance camera in the control room.
"Love, friendship, family, the stronger the feelings, the stronger the despair that follows when they collapse—" [1] Enoshima Junko closed the notebook she had been working on, and paid no attention to Shibai, who was walking towards her under surveillance. She stared intently at another screen. After the smoke slowly disappeared, she saw the face of her sister, whose back was covered in blood and whose eyes were wide open, and who had become a corpse—the face of her sister who had been by her side since birth.
If you watch it in reverse, you can even hear the subtle voice of "Little Shield..." calling her.
"How could it be so indifferent..." The expression on Enoshima Junko's face was filled with unexpected tenderness and sadness at this moment.
Her sister had been in her life for as long as she could remember, a clumsy pig who only knew how to please her. But this existence disappeared before her eyes.
Her fingers touched the face on the screen that looked very similar to her, but the expression on the face became strange at this moment.
Because——this is what Junko Enoshima has always longed for.
The one you love the most, the one who is more important than anything else, the one who cannot be replaced by anything, the one you love like a madman, the one you long to possess all the time, and the one you keep hugging - despair!
Senren Mukuro must be very happy at this moment. Because of her death, Junko will taste the despair of her beloved! This can be felt from the fact that Junko Enoshima was always trying to assassinate Senren Mukuro when she was alive. This is a twisted and strong love.
The sister who had always accompanied and loved her died - she tasted such despair! How wonderful is such despair?
Enoshima Junko covered her face with her hands, the corners of her mouth raised high in a mad smile, "——It can't be better!!!"
Junko Enoshima screamed, and crystal tears fell from her eyes. Her expression made it impossible to tell whether it was joy or sadness.
"My chest feels so bad! It feels like it's going to explode! I can't control the sadness! I hate the worst version of myself! This feeling is great!"
“Mmmm…Mmmm…Mmmm…” Enoshima Junko turned her head and fixed her beast-like pupils on what appeared at the door. The screen was filled with replays of her sister’s death.
"Thank you so much, Mr. Monokichi, for letting me experience this wonderful feeling! It's really great - but my sister didn't die in my hands, ah ah... this is really too despairing!"
The expression on Shi Bai's face was a little stiff. He had never seen such a person before. His back felt cold and hairy, and he didn't know what to say for a moment.
Enoshima Junko talked to herself, then tilted her head and looked at Hinata Hajime who was standing outside the door but not approaching - no, if it was Enoshima Junko, she would rather call him, [Kamizura Izuryu].
Isn’t it a very despairing thing that artificial hope is given to the name of the founder?
"Ah, Senior Monokichi, your arrival means that I have failed..." Enoshima Junko lowered her head, and in an instant, her cheeks were flushed. She said in an extremely excited tone: "Isn't this the best!"
“My carefully planned plan was forced to end before it even began, and was directly destroyed by you, Monokichi-senpai! This kind of despair of throwing it all away - ah, this is so despair! I really want the whole world to feel this despair!”
"This is simply the most unprecedented and extremely desperate happiness!"
"So what are you going to do next, Senior Monokichi? Are you going to kill me? Yes, that's right. As long as you kill me, everything will be over—" Enoshima Junko looked at Shibai with eyes full of expectation. "I will definitely enjoy the despair brought by death, which only happens once in a person's life!"
“Puff, um, puff, puff…”
"...Ah, that may disappoint you." Although there was a difference in height, at this moment, Shi Bai's gaze was like a god showing mercy to the weak human, full of arrogance and mercy.
"My knife is fast enough... and a smile like yours will never bring you luck."
Enoshima Junko was stunned, and hadn't even recovered yet, nor did she feel anything. Several seconds later, she belatedly felt the sharp pain in her chest, and blood dripped onto the ground.
“Ahh——You won’t even let me enjoy the despair of death... You really have a bad taste, Monokichi-senpai.” Enoshima Junko lost her strength and knelt on the ground, but she seemed not to have suffered a fatal injury. She laughed out loud, “——But! Isn’t this even more despairing?!”
Enoshima Junko's vitality seemed to be exceptionally strong. Even though she was fatally injured, she did not die for a while.
Shibai's pupils slightly dilated, and he saw Enoshima Junko's raised hand, and the pistol that appeared out of nowhere——
He subconsciously suppressed Enoshima Junko, and was about to plunge into Enoshima Junko's body with another "puff", but the sound of a gunshot had already been heard - it was not aimed at him, but at Hinata Hajime (Kamikura Izuru) who had been standing at the door as a bystander.
"Despair is the best, only despair can lead you out of this boring world--!" Enoshima Junko's body was covered in blood and her insides were full of wounds, but she still laughed and said this to Kamijou Izuru, who slightly widened his eyes and touched the wound on his cheek that he had been hit because he did not dodge in time.
“Imperial throne-senpai——Now, you believe me, right? Ufufufu, wufufufufu——”
Enoshima Junko was fatally injured and could not withstand the recoil of the pistol, so Kamijou Izuru had no intention of dodging - but the bullet still caused damage to him.
Because the man-made talent was too good, Kamizuru Izuru, who could predict almost everything, had something unexpected happen to him for the first time. As a result, he developed a little interest in despair.
At this moment, Shibatake was like a devil. Since he couldn't kill with one blow, he sat astride Enoshima Junko and showed no mercy. The scarlet blood spurted on his face and body, and his beautiful golden hair was stained with sin that seemed impossible to wash away.
The wide cuffs covered Shibai's hands, and the clothes seemed to be soaked in scarlet blood.
The blood dripped from the tip of his knife, his forehead, and his hair, filling the dim monitoring room with blood. Even his golden pupils seemed to be stained with a terrifying red because of the reflection of this scene.
Kamiya Izuru stood at the door, watching the scene coldly.
The student council president hurried here, worried that something might happen, and immediately notified the security guards and teachers after settling his companions. What he saw was a scene that looked like a horror movie.
"What on earth... happened..."

In fact, Shibai was still affected by Shield's despair. Despair is contagious!
