Chapter 234 Others bite lighters alive, and you resurrect the White King?
The opening of the Yorozuya Shop was a great success, but it was obvious that there would be no business for a while.
After all, no decent person would open a shop above a gigolo nightclub.
If you want to issue a commission, you have to go to the best male escort club in Tokyo first. It's okay if it's a woman who goes in, but if it's a man, then when he comes out, everyone will look at him with something strange in their eyes.
Wow, did you just sell a ditch, or are you preparing to sell a ditch, or did you buy a ditch?
Eh...
The Takamagahara nightclub was deserted, but Tamamonomae, another top club in Tokyo, was acting as if it was hosting a big shot.
The strongest dragon slayer in the world, the man who once single-handedly suppressed the entire Snake Eight Clans to the point of suffocating their breath - Hilbert Jean Angers!
He is coming!
It was still the familiar Narita Airport, and the people were still coming from Kassel College, but compared to the coldness and sourness of Caesar, Chu Zihang, and Finkel when they met them at the airport last time, the treatment given by the Eight Snake Families this time was luxurious.
The second-in-command of the Inuyama family changed into the most formal attire and led thirty men in black suits to line up and bow, welcoming Principal Ange to come and give guidance.
Then the Maybach led the way, followed by a row of black Mercedes-Benzes. The huge convoy dominated the city, and no car in the adjacent lane dared to approach, and there was not even anyone to overtake.
The convoy had unimpeded passage and soon arrived at the most luxurious club in Tokyo.
Yoshitaka Hasegawa led the way, explaining the most luxurious assets of the Inuyama family to the principal, who had not visited Japan for more than half a century.
However, Ange's expression was indifferent, and he ignored the golden dancers with bare chests and legs on the first floor and the musicians on the second floor who were also dressed coolly.
He was a playboy when he was young, and he was still keen on appreciating beautiful things when he was old, but in his heart, the great cause of slaying dragons always ranked first.
At this moment, a dragon king from ancient times who once competed with the Black Emperor is waiting for resurrection on the bottom of the sea in Japan. How could he have the leisure to appreciate these trivial things?
The dancers and pianists played their music with all their might, but they could not attract any extra attention from the principal. He went straight to the third floor and stood face to face with the old man who was wearing a navy blue kimono and had a slightly pale face.
"Principal, it's been sixty years since we last met, right?"
Inuyama He bowed slightly, with a respectful expression: "You still look so young!"
After so many years, compared with the appearance in his memory, Angers only had deeper wrinkles on his face and grayer hair, but his eyes were still as aloof as when he landed on the island alone and trampled the eight Sheqi families under his feet, like a lion that never grows old.
As Angers looked at his student, whose hair was gray and he was no longer young, his urgency paused for a moment, and some memories appeared in his eyes:
"You look much older and weaker."
After saying this, he finally smiled a little more. He looked at the beautiful girls around him and said jokingly:
"Have you been busy pimping these years and neglected your sword skills, and been overtaken by the newcomers?"
Ange had experienced countless wars in his life, so the injuries on Inuyama He's body naturally could not be hidden from him.
Although he could still receive news from the academy while on the plane, the Eight Snake Families had actually broken away from the control of Kassel Academy last night. Norma lost the right to visit the Japanese branch, and Kaguya also took the initiative to block the access channels from Kassel Academy, so she knew very little about the information here.
So, at this moment, Angers had no idea how big a problem had happened in the Japanese branch after Finkel and his men escaped last night.
Not only was the lair of the fierce ghosts destroyed, but even the heads of the eight patriarchs of the Sheqi families were also beheaded.
In response, Inuyama He could only smile bitterly: "The waves behind push the waves ahead, and not every wave ahead is as strong as you, the principal."
Hearing this, Ange raised his eyebrows slightly: "The one who hurt you was a young man? Which young man is so bold?"
In order to completely subdue the Sheqi Eight Families, he had stayed in Japan for several years and had some understanding of this ancient and conservative family.
In the Eight Sheqi Families, it is absolutely forbidden for the inferiors to overthrow their superiors. The head of the family stands at the top of the family, and even the patriarch cannot deliberately humiliate him. Other members of the family with lower status will be slapped in the face if they are disrespectful, and in serious cases, they will have to cut off their fingers to apologize.
"Could it be your youngest executive director?"
He read the information that Finkel sent back last night as soon as possible. He also understood the vague parts thoroughly when the boy sent back the information for the second time. He knew that Yuan Zhisheng was the contemporary emperor of the Eight Snake Clans.
Just like the guy who was beaten to a pulp by him back then, he is a super strong man standing at the top of the mixed-blood race.
If it was Huang, he could indeed injure Inuyama He, who also possessed the extremely fast Word Spirit.
However, Inuyama He shook his head: "It wasn't the head of the Minamoto family. Someone else hurt me."
Te didn't continue talking at this point. After all, one of the boys who "the children in the south village bullied me because I was old and weak" at that time was the next president of the Lionheart Society.
If the principal knew that his powerful move was almost caught by a freshman, he would probably unbuckle his belt and beat him.
The Japanese-style room at the end of the corridor was not the one that had previously entertained Lu Mingfei and others, but a more plain and simple room decorated only with the girl's style.
These girls were all wearing black student uniforms and white shirts. They were almost as pretty as the little dragons at Kassel Academy, and very much to Angers' taste.
Inuyama He glanced at these beautiful girls and nodded secretly. There was a traitor among them before, who directly offended the biggest creditor of the Sheqi Eight Families.
Now, in order to entertain the principal, he had someone re-examine them and confirmed that there would be no problems before allowing them to sit at the table to serve, so as to avoid angering the most difficult old lion in the world.
With the help of a girl, Ange lit a cigar, blew out a puff of blue smoke, and his eyes fell on the young man across the long table.
"This is Mr. Shio Miyamoto, the head of the Miyamoto family." Inuyama He introduced him.
"I am from Kassel College, Class of 1995, and graduated from the Department of Practical Alchemy. Nice to meet you, President." Miyamoto Shio bowed deeply while sitting.
"I remember you. You came to my office for afternoon tea and won the president's scholarship." Angé knocked off the ash on his cigarette. The girl who lit the cigarette for him held it in her jade-like hands. Power and authority were embodied at this moment.
"The academy wanted to keep you at the school, but you insisted on returning to the Snake Eight Family and became the director of the Iwayu Research Institute under the Japanese branch. You also led the creation of the second super artificial intelligence. I have to say that you are indeed a talent."
"You're too kind, Principal." Miyamoto Shio adjusted his glasses and tried to be modest, but then he heard Angers complain again:
"It's a pity that at such a young age, you are always hanging out with gangsters. How can you do research well?
Look at your predecessor, the head of the Japanese branch was seriously injured in a gang dispute and couldn't even get out of bed."
The atmosphere became a little awkward after hearing this. Inuyama He, who was the top fighter of the Snake Eight Clan back then, quickly changed the subject:
"Principal, let me introduce my daughters to you. This is my most precious collection."
After he finished speaking, those girls, who were all beautiful in their own ways, stood up and wanted to walk up to Angers so that he could admire them one by one.
However, Ange just shook his cigar and said, "Aha, you can always see beautiful girls. After we solve the problem under the sea, it won't be too late to talk about romance."
Hearing this, Inuyama He's expression changed slightly, but he still said nothing. He waved his hand to signal the anxious girls to leave quietly, leaving only Inuyama He's two favorite goddaughters to serve tea and wine.
"The principal has come to visit you, and the purpose must be to visit Takama-ga-hara." Inuyama He held the wine glass with a calm look.
"A dragon slayer like you shouldn't care about your employees submitting resignation reports."
Ange raised his glass, the rim of which was slightly higher than Inuyama Ka, and drank the cold wine with a light slam:
"The Japanese branch is under the management of the Executive Department. Whether it is a collective resignation or secretly raising Deadpool and illegally researching dragon serum, the one who should be worried is Professor Schneider.
I came here for only one thing, and that is to slay the dragon."
His iron-gray eyes stared at the old man and the young man across the table, with the momentum of a lion eager to pounce:
"I don't know where you get the confidence to keep such a huge secret and ensure that the White King will not be resurrected.
But now that I know it, it must be destroyed.”
Inuyama He lost his casual expression and stared at Ange without giving in:
“For decades, the secret party has been coveting the secrets of the Eight Clans of Sheqi, but they are not all like you, who only want to slay the dragon.
We have been guarding against it for so many years because we are worried that the secret of inheriting the blood of the White King will be leaked out, which will arouse the greed of all the half-bloods in the world!
The wounds left by those European nobles who ate human flesh and drank human blood in Japan are still painful today."
"I'm not here to discuss the interests of our country and family with you, and you are not qualified to talk to me about this."
Ange put out his cigar, his voice calm but full of authority:
"Do you think you are so strong? Do you think that this is something you have been protecting for generations, and even if something goes wrong, there is no need for outsiders to intervene?
You have no idea what you are up against. It is a monster far beyond your imagination, and its resurrection will bring disaster to the country."
Smoke was curling up from the ashtray. Angers looked at his student who was no longer young through the hazy mist:
"Listen, Aha, now is not the time to be willful. We must completely destroy it before the White King revives. Otherwise, when it sees the light of day again, all of Japan will face doom!"
The murals sent back by Finkel showed that the White King had resurrected twice, bringing unbearable disasters to the Japanese mixed-race people.
If it were to revive in modern times, the harm it would bring would not be limited to the destruction of Japan. It would also plunge the entire world into chaos, and the secrets of the dragon clan would be completely revealed to the public.
Inuyama He looked at the old man opposite him who was intimidating without even getting angry, and felt a bit complicated. If he had left the Genji Heavy Industries Building early last night, he would definitely have a clear conscience when facing the principal, and he could even refute him for the honor of his family and fight him.
But...
It’s all Tachibana Masamune’s fault!
Beside him, Miyamoto Shio's face was also a little embarrassed, and it was obvious that he was thinking about the series of outrageous actions of the late patriarch.
If the patriarch is still the respected and convincing supreme leader who makes everyone obey his orders, then the Eight Families of Sheqi will definitely have the courage and confidence to challenge the secret party.
But now he is dead, and before his death he created such a huge mess for the Sheqi Eight Families. Now the entire Sheqi Eight Families are in panic, and the family members who are unaware of the truth are clamoring to avenge the head lord and kill all the bastards of the Menggui Clan.
The family leaders who knew the truth were worried that the White King under the sea might have resurrected and returned to the world.
I was thinking whether I should call back all the personnel who were radiating overseas and deal with the White King and the ghosts at the same time, or take advantage of Kassel Academy's enthusiasm for slaying dragons and drag them into the water, and throw the tough problems to them to solve.
The former is feasible to a certain extent, but afterwards the Eight Snake Families will completely lose the power to compete with the secret party and defend themselves, and it is only a matter of time before they are divided and eaten by others.
The latter option has both advantages and disadvantages. Although paying a certain price to get the help of Kassel Academy will completely tie you to the secret party's ship, you can also avoid being coveted by other mixed-blood societies.
This mainly depends on Angers' attitude.
If he is extremely tough and insists that the Eight Snake Clans hand over all their secrets, and even take away their genetic samples, then there is nothing to say. At worst, both sides will be defeated, and the orcs will never be enslaved again.
If he only said to kill the god, although he would be reluctant to give up the opportunity to evolve into the supreme being, compared with the great terror of life and death, it is not unacceptable.
So Inuyama He waved his hand to dismiss the maid, sat upright with his back slightly hunched, looked at his mentor's wrinkled face, and sighed:
"Masamune Tachibana is dead."
"Huh?" Angé frowned. This news was also reported to the executive department, but because it came from the ghosts, they did not dare to guarantee the credibility of the news, so he did not take it seriously.
Unexpectedly, the hero who led the Eight Clans of Sheqi to gradually break away from the control of the secret party actually died.
It’s a pity that I didn’t get to meet him/her.
"He gave us a great job before he died." Inuyama He smiled bitterly, and before Ange could ask, he said the second half of the sentence:
"He brought the White King back to life."
"What?!" Even someone as calm as Angers was so shocked when he heard this that his hand holding the wine started shaking and he almost spilled the wine on the table.
He took back what he had said before.
It is indeed a pity, but it is not a pity that I didn’t meet Tachibana Masamune, but that I didn’t strangle him to death when he was born.
"What's going on?"
…
At Genji Heavy Industries, Genji Chisei, who had taken over the executive bureau again and was busy, learned that Angers had arrived at the Tamamonomae Club and was negotiating with the head of the Inuyama family and Miyamoto Shio.
After thinking about it, he turned around and wanted to ask Ying to help get the information, but he quickly realized that she was not there, so he asked Crow, who had stayed up all night, to go to the archives to get the information about Angers.
Although Yuan Zhisheng was only the director of the Executive Bureau in name, as the head of the three inner families, he still had high authority over the eight families of Sheqi, and could even access some special files in the archives room.
But when Wu Ya walked out of the office door, Yuan Zhisheng stopped him again: "Forget it, I'll go by myself."
In addition to Ange, he wanted to see the file of another person.
The man who was called the shame of the Eight Snake Clans - Uesugi Yue.
