Chapter 123 Chapter 123 Yokohama Burning Plan (Part 2)...
Yuyin leaned against the car window with her chin in her hand, casually looking at the scenery passing by quickly outside.
Today is a sunny day, a great time for traveling. The streets and alleys of Yokohama are full of pedestrians and tourists, including couples in love and parents with children. Everyone has a relaxed and comfortable expression on their face.
They knew nothing about the ship explosion that had just occurred in the port, nor did they know how many undercurrents were hidden behind such a relaxed and happy atmosphere.
The place where Yuyin was about to rush to was one of the sources of the undercurrent, where Yumeno Hisasaku was imprisoned.
Previously, the Guild leader Francis and an old man named Herman boarded the giant white whale and left calmly, but what is certain is that the white whale, as a floating fortress-like stronghold headquarters, is too conspicuous. There is no record of it landing or appearing on any waterside.
It was certain that the two who had abducted Yumeno Hisasaku had not brought him aboard the White Whale. With the help of forces throughout Yokohama, the Special Ability Division quickly located their location. The two men, along with Yumeno Hisasaku, hid them in a warehouse in the suburbs of Yokohama.
As soon as Sakaguchi Ango got the exact address, he immediately forwarded it to Saionji Tamon. He'd originally planned to take care of the transportation, but unfortunately, Saionji couldn't show up in front of the Special Ability Division's staff. He'd also recently injured his leg and couldn't drive himself. Saionji himself was too young to even have a driver's license, so Tamon had to call a taxi to find transportation.
At times like this, Yuyin missed Senior Gojo very much. The many abilities derived from his six eyes were so convenient, and teleportation was the most practical ability in daily life.
Although she herself could also teleport over long distances, that was based on the fact that a formation had been set up in advance between the two places to form a fixed teleportation formation.
She was looking out the window, thinking about something, when she suddenly noticed something strange -
A very strange energy surges in the plants in the city.
The supernatural powers of Yokohama differ from those of those possessed by those without power, even those of demon exorcists and sorcerers. Aside from those capable of materialization, most powers activate silently, without noticeable special effects or visual artifacts. Therefore, unless one is particularly sensitive to energy, such as Gojo Satoru, who possesses the Six Eyes, or psychics like Saionji Gyoon, who are naturally able to discern demons and monsters, few can detect a problem before or during a power's activation.
Yuyin suddenly lowered her head and quickly looked through the information. If she remembered correctly, among the Guild members whose abilities had been exposed, one person had the ability to manipulate plants!
She quickly confirmed that her memory was correct, and that this person was one of the duo who kidnapped her rescue target, Yumeno Hisasaku, John Steinbeck!
What was surging in those plants was not the normal supernatural energy that controlled them, but a deeper, black curse!
"...He has a very brutal mind-control ability. Calling it a curse is not an exaggeration."
The words that Mr. Ango had used when introducing Yumeno Hisasaku echoed in her mind.
Yuyin connected what she had seen and immediately put them together to complete the whole reasoning, "I understand!"
She blurted out "Oh no!" and immediately turned to the driver and said, "Stop! Mr. Driver, please stop right now!"
However, it was too late. There was a loud noise coming from the road ahead, like the sound of a vehicle colliding with something. The vehicles on the road were caught off guard and caused a chain rear-end collision. Fortunately, they stopped in advance.
The taxi that Saionji Tamon took was one of the luckier ones. She glanced at the calculator, took out a few bills from her wallet, threw them to the driver, and then opened the door and ran out immediately without caring that they were on a road where getting off was not allowed.
The Guild used John Steinbeck's ability to manipulate plants, and somehow managed to amplify Yumeno Hisasaku's curse power!
Their target is the entire city!
*
Yuyin looked around and saw that some people around her had shown signs of being mentally controlled, becoming mentally ill and even attacking others around them. There were quite a few of them.
Yuyin quickly estimated the ratio of people to others. Within her field of vision, at least 20% of the people were in abnormal conditions.
Although the proportion of 20% seems small, as long as it happens to people in key positions, such as bus drivers, armed police officers, workers operating machinery, etc., it can cause immeasurable losses and damage.
The streets no longer have the peace and tranquility they once had, they have almost become a purgatory!
We can't go on like this. The longer it lasts, the more unpredictable the outcome will be!
Saionji Yuin made a quick decision and immediately found the tallest tree with the most surging energy in her sight. After closing her eyes for a moment, she put her hand on it without hesitation.
Field expansion——
It is not the kind of field expansion in the world of curse, but a [field] that Yuyin has studied and is based on her innate spiritual abilities. It is not a closed space like the [field expansion] in the world of curse, but a semi-open [field] that can change and extend at will.
At this moment, this powerful force, which has her naming rules, poured into the earth along the big tree. In the intertwined root system deep underground, it dispersed the power bit by bit throughout the city, comforting the ordinary citizens who were cursed and insane.
The Mafia at the port was in chaos because of this accident.
Especially those militants who were carrying heavy firepower weapons, because of the mentally ill people who opened fire randomly, they had already engaged in an internal exchange of fire, and the fighting was fierce.
Those who were lucky enough not to be cursed not only had to endure the pain of shooting their former comrades, but also had to find time to maintain law and order in the chaotic city. Due to the excessive chaos, Yokohama's original law and order maintenance force was simply insufficient.
However, as they were engaged in a firefight, they discovered that the mentally disturbed people had become sluggish in their movements, and some had simply fainted. They immediately pounced on them and knocked them unconscious or tied them up.
Feeling that the unusual movements in the city had weakened a lot, Yuyin finally breathed a sigh of relief and immediately focused on another important matter.
Her previous method was only a temporary solution, not a fundamental solution. Even if she could block or alleviate Yumeno Hisasaku's mental attack, not to mention the huge consumption, if she maintained this action, she would not be able to rush to her destination and stop the Guild's next move against Yumeno Hisasaku.
That's all there is to it——
When Saionji Yuin opened her eyes, her eyes were sharp and she had already made up her mind.
She calmed her mind and communicated with the tree and nature attentively, tracing the source. The law of [domain] advanced rapidly along with the spiritual power. After a while, she found the source of the curse power, the remote warehouse where Yumeno Hisasaku was imprisoned.
Thick tree roots and vines entangled the young boy's thin body. Yuyin could feel that he seemed to be stimulated by something. As he cried violently, the power of the curse continued to radiate.
The field expands!
This time, Yuyin's target was Yumeno Hisasaku himself. As the power of the laws commanded by her mind covered the boy's body, his expression gradually calmed down from extreme pain, and finally froze in a smile.
"I seem to...feel..."
Yumeno Hisasaku couldn't describe the feeling. It was different from the previous times when Mr. Dazai forced him to eliminate all the effects of his supernatural powers. It was as if he had returned to the time before he was born, when he was still in the mother's womb. He felt warm and at ease, without any pain or torture.
That's right, his superpower, the superpower he hated, disappeared!
Did God finally hear his prayers and bless him?
Tears of joy welled up in the young boy's eyes, and his heart, which had been hurt by the enemy before, finally calmed down.
*
After using the enemy's supernatural power in reverse and remotely launching a field to purify Yumeno Hisasaku's supernatural power itself, Yuyin was finally able to stop.
The consumption this time was too great. It was the first time for her to use the magic and the field itself. She was really nervous and could not guarantee the success rate.
Fortunately, God blessed her and she achieved her wishes and all her goals successfully.
After the spell, she felt so exhausted that she leaned her back against the big tree and sat down.
As soon as she sat down, her cell phone rang.
As soon as the call was connected, Mr. Ango's anxious voice came from the other end: "Saionji, are you okay? There's been an emergency, probably from the Guild..."
"Don't worry, Mr. Ango. I'm fine," Tamane interrupted Sakaguchi before he could finish. "Don't worry about the Guild using Yumeno Hisasaku's abilities to launch an attack, intending to cause large-scale destruction. I've already stopped it. I think you'll receive the latest intelligence report soon. After that, we just need to restore normal city security forces, and everything should be fine."
Sakaguchi Ango was stunned for a moment, and a look of surprise appeared on his usually expressionless face. "Is that so? That's great, Saionji, you really did a great job!"
There had just been a commotion in the Special Ability Agents Department, and the person who lost control was later restrained and tied up. After hearing reports of unusual things happening everywhere from below, Ango Sakaguchi immediately called Saionji Tamane out of worry, fearing that she had also lost control or had an accident due to someone else's loss of control. Unexpectedly, he would get a big surprise from Saionji.
Although after discovering that Saionji was not dead, Sakaguchi Ango had silently raised his estimate of the ability level of his former subordinate by several levels, he still felt that he had underestimated her.
"What about Yumeno Hisasaku..."
Sakaguchi Ango still couldn't finish his question, because Saionji's voice on the other end of the phone became smaller and smaller, but every word was clear.
"I should probably apologize first, Mr. Ango. After stopping the Guild attack, I need to rest for a while. As for rescuing Yumeno Hisasaku from that base, Mr. Ango, you'd better arrange it with other people."
"That's no problem," Sakaguchi Ango agreed without hesitation. Regardless of the danger Yumeno Hisasaku himself posed, the ones most anxious to rescue him should be the Port Mafia, to which he belonged. After all, the Guild had captured its members, and it was the Port Mafia, the local bully, who was embarrassed. "Since you said so, Saionji, I'll have someone pass the information to the Port Mafia, and let them..."
Before he could finish his words, Sakaguchi Ango heard a "bang" from the other side, like the sound of a cell phone hitting the ground.
"Hey, Saionji, are you okay?!"
