I planted a sacred tree in Tokyo.

Chapter 166 The yellow robe is added to the body
Bunkyo District,
Silver Gym
As a fitness center built shortly after the arrival of the supernatural, this gym is very famous in the Tokyo area.

Rumor has it that the three mysterious owners are all superhumans, and there are professional superhuman coaches who tailor training plans to ensure your body can withstand the enhancements of the 'superhuman potion'. This attracts a large number of wealthy people, and many superhumans also regularly train here to maintain their condition.

As for their mental state, to be honest, anyone who can withstand the training intensity here must have a strong will.

"Ok?"

When Yu, Sora, the class president, Yura, and Sakura Hibiki arrived at the gym after school, they saw a row of black cars parked at the entrance.

"Are these Metropolitan Police Department vehicles?"

Squad leader Nao immediately recognized the origins of these bulletproof vehicles that had no logos or other distinguishing features.

The reason is simple: in her spare time, she memorized most of the license plates of vehicles belonging to the Metropolitan Police Department.

"Hey, could it be that an extraordinary disaster has occurred here as well?"

Sakura Hibiki, with her blonde hair and wheat-colored skin, was startled. She had finally made up her mind to lose weight, was she going to have to give up halfway again?

Although she had previously tried to lose weight at home through exercises like push-ups and sit-ups, she gave up after three days without supervision. Now, not only is there the allure of a well-dressed street-style coach, a feast for the eyes, but she also can't let her year-long membership go to waste, can she?

While most students at Royal Sakura School are indeed from wealthy families, there are always exceptions: the Sakura family can only be considered middle class.

However, Hibiki Sakura has a chuunibyou older brother who wears 'cosplay outfits' every day. He is the president of Sakura-sou Charcoal Grilled Meat and a very wealthy businessman.

"This is Bunkyo Ward, which is adjacent to the Shinju Ward."

The blonde, voluptuous girl looked up in confusion at the building, which appeared to be unremarkable.

Because they exercised together after school, Hibiki Sakura and Yu's group had become new 'friends' and knew about their abilities: ordinary supernatural disasters were nothing to them.

In fact, even Hibiki Sakura herself wouldn't be afraid of ordinary extraordinary beings.

Despite her terrible stamina, she's actually a 'naturally extraordinary' person.

However, this extraordinary individual is still struggling with weight loss.
"Someone has come out,"

Yura Hanakain pointed to the center of the building's six halls: a large group of people in black suits silently emerged, forming a 'human wall' to protect several people as they walked out.

Leading the group was none other than Chief Inspector Takeya of the Metropolitan Police Department, with his capable lieutenant, Iori Kazuka, beside him.

Behind them was a young woman with a helpless expression, wearing brown sunglasses and a loose hooded sweatshirt; next to her was a beautiful woman in a kimono, looking trembling and terrified: judging from her posture, she looked like a criminal who had been arrested for committing some serious crime.

"Are those the two gym owners?"

Qiong put down her phone; she also had her own 'intelligence network'.

Naturally, they knew the identities of the three "mysterious owners" behind the "Silver Gym".

Kazuka Iori of the Metropolitan Police Department, Kana Mitani, the head of the "Jingu City Group", and Nozomi Tenma, a retired female mixed martial artist.

The classic collusion between the "black, white, and power" factions meant that arrests were to be expected. But that was in the past. Now, Iori Kazuka is the head of the Extraordinary Countermeasures Division, the Jingu City Group has transformed into a legitimate company, and Tenma Nozomi, one of the trio, is now in charge of the gym, working out every day.
What's going on with this scene before us?

"It has nothing to do with us,"

"Perhaps Officer Ichiwa's two best friends are both highly skilled and have been invited as honored guests by the Metropolitan Police Department?"

Yu calmly pointed to the staff in the gym lobby who were constantly explaining to other customers:

"Look, the gym's operations have not been affected."

"okay,"

"Let's work up a sweat today too!"

Yuluo clenched her fist with great energy. She didn't care or meddle in other people's business.

Only one's own strength can be the cornerstone supporting a family.

Sigrún has taught at the Iceland University of the Arts as a part-time lecturer since and was Dean of the Department of Fine Art from -. In – she held a research position at Reykjavík Art Museum focusing on the role of women in Icelandic art. She studied fine art at the Icelandic College of Arts and Crafts and at Pratt Institute, New York, and holds BA and MA degrees in art history and philosophy from the University of Iceland. Sigrún lives and works in Iceland.

A line of black bulletproof sedans headed towards Chiyoda Ward. In the middle of the convoy, in one of the cars:
"Yihua, you..."

Pushing up his brown sunglasses, Tianma looked utterly helpless.

"What the hell are you doing?"

Her childhood friend suddenly showed up with a group of people and, without saying a word, wanted to "invite" her to the Metropolitan Police Department. If Tenma hadn't always been law-abiding, she would have been just as terrified as Hana next to her.

"I'm sorry to have dragged you into this extraordinary conflict."

Iori Kazuka clasped her hands together and apologized to Tenma Nozomi.

If she could, she wouldn't want her friend to be in danger. But—

"Some things cannot be avoided by running away."

"Hopefully, you've done some research on your 'eyes' lately."

?

"have,"

Pegasus, wearing sunglasses, nodded.
When she was alone, she also studied her gray-white eyes.

But apart from the powerful dynamic visuals, there doesn't seem to be anything unusual.
That's because you don't know the truth behind what you see.

Iori Ichika looked at her friend seriously, emphasizing each word:
"You have awakened Amaterasu's 'Eye of God'."

? !
"Excuse me, you mentioned Amaterasu."

Pegasus raised his hand, asking a question with a hint of doubt.

"Is that the Amaterasu worshipped at Ise Grand Shrine, the one the Imperial Family worships?"

"Correct."

"How is that possible? Our Pegasus is just an ordinary person."

Hana, standing nearby, instinctively retorted, but Iori Kazuka waved her hand dismissively.

"you shut up!"

Waaaaah~~
The kimono-clad beauty shut her mouth in grievance, her arms around Pegasus Nozomi's arm about to fall sadly.

Among the trio, if Iori Kazuka is hot-tempered and Tenma Nozomi is neutral, then Miya Kana is a typical delicate beauty.

"Anyway, come with me to the Metropolitan Police Department."

“If it is confirmed that you possess the bloodline of Amaterasu, then moving to the Imperial Palace would be a matter of course.”

?

"I don't care about places like that."

He rolled his eyes behind his sunglasses, and Pegasus looked disgusted.

"It is said that even members of the royal family must control the time spent in the toilet to within ten seconds."

"What's the point of a group of glamorous 'prisoners'?"

The previous emperor of the island nation studied gobies for 60 years and published 29 related papers, making him the world's only authoritative expert: not because he had a deep passion for gobies, but because this was all he could do.

He was similar to a prisoner counting ants in jail. If there was any difference, it was probably that his cell was more spacious.
“I admit you have a point,”

"But, there is hope—"

Thinking of Hyuga Toneri's personality, Iori Kazuka sighed.

If such an arrogant person discovers that the bloodline of the 'Eye of God' still exists, he will definitely do everything in his power to eliminate it.

With Pegasus's current strength, he couldn't even withstand a single finger from his opponent: once Iori Kazuka realized that her friend's eyes were the 'Eye of God,' there was no turning back.

Of course, there is another way to break the deadlock: kneel down in front of Hyuga Toneri and call him "Ancestor." However, Iori Kazuka knows that despite his friend's seemingly gloomy demeanor, he is actually a person with pride.

She couldn't bring herself to kneel and beg for mercy from the enemy.

"We're here,"

Bunkyo Ward is not far from Chiyoda.

The convoy soon arrived at the Metropolitan Police Department headquarters.

"I won't hurt you, I hope."

As his friend pushed open the car door, got out, and turned to reach out his hand, Tianma shrugged.

"Alright, then let me see what's so magical about your so-called 'Eye of God'."

"—This is the Eye of God?!"

In the Metropolitan Police Department's special operations room, watching the boy on the screen who was "invincible," easily defeating numerous supernatural beings, repelling General Kafka, detonating a supersonic missile in mid-air, and even chasing after the American fleet, Pegasus couldn't help but raise his hand and touch his eyes.

My 'eyes' are that amazing?
I do not know how!
"Yes, I hope for Yuanming."

An expert from the nearby Metropolitan Police Department explained,

"Lord Hyuga Toneri's 'Eye of God' has an observation range of 106 kilometers, a 360-degree field of vision with no blind spots, and its attacks have the characteristic of sealing other extraordinary 'spiritual powers'."

"This is the information we currently have, and it is very similar to the performance of Nozomi Higanbana's 'Eye of God'."

The Metropolitan Police Department has already conducted tests. Tenma hopes that these gray-white eyes will not only look exactly like 'Hyuga Toneri's', but also possess characteristics such as 'farsightedness' and 'wide-angle vision': although the range cannot compare to Hyuga Toneri's eyes, it has already surpassed the limits of normal superhumans.

Without a doubt, she has awakened the Amaterasu bloodline!
"Could you please stop adding 'Yuanming' to my name? It sounds so awkward."

The expert nodded in agreement with Tianma's suggestion.

"I will obey Your Majesty's decree and hope for your favor."

The term 'Yunming' is a title for female members of the royal family in island nations or for people of high status in Shintoism. Generally, people with this title possess both of these identities.

The emperor's name is usually followed by 'male', in other words, only the most noble woman, who is believed to have divine blood, is worthy of this title.

Once Pegasus's identity as a descendant of Amaterasu is confirmed, she will naturally be able to use this honorific title.

Rather, it's more accurate to say that there is no one more qualified than her in the entire island nation today.

"My family is clearly just an ordinary family."

"That's not the case, I hope Yuanming will grant her wish."

Director Zhu Ya led a group of new experts into the conference room.

"Please look, this is the family tree of the 'Pegasus' family."

In just a few hours, the information about the Tenma family's ancestors for eighteen generations was unearthed in the face of the island nation's all-out efforts.

"The Tenma family was a prominent local clan during the Meiji period; their lineage traces back to the Kusunoki clan of the Sengoku period, and further back to the Chikugo Tachibana clan."

As experts pulled out a bunch of ancient books to determine the 'reversal lineage,' it was quickly deduced that Tenma's ancestor was the Tachibana clan of Heian-kyo: an undisputed descendant of Amaterasu, of royal blood, and so on.
"Wait, do you think I'm illiterate?"

Pegasus hopes everyone is numb.

The island nation's royal family has a 'lineage of ten thousand generations,' which has never been interrupted for over a thousand years. At least that's what they claim.

So here's the question: what if the royal family's population grows too large?
The answer is 'bestowed a surname and made a subject'.

During the Heian period, the four major clans of Minamoto, Taira, Fujiwara, and Tachibana all arose because of the expansion of the imperial family's population. The emperor directly bestowed surnames upon these blood relatives and then allowed them to spread across the island nation to reclaim wasteland and build cities. This not only reduced the financial burden on the imperial family but also allowed them to continuously expand their territory.

These powerful families, whether nobles or samurai, rose to prominence and took turns ruling the island nation: in the end, they were all of the Amaterasu lineage.

Later royal families all did this, which led to:
"According to your logic,"

"Over the past thousand years, which island nation's people haven't inherited a few strands of royal blood?"

Faced with Tianma's complaints, Director Zhuya gave a wry smile.

"But I hope for Yuan's life."

"Currently, throughout the entire island nation, only you and Hyuga Toneri have awakened the 'Eye of God.' Therefore:"

If you don't carry the banner of the Amaterasu bloodline, who will?

Does the government have to go into the ocean and retrieve the three sacred artifacts that are sunk somewhere unknown?

"you."

Looking at the group of experts holding 'family genealogy documents' and the eager gazes of the high-ranking officials of the Metropolitan Police Department, Tenma's raised finger trembled.

"This has really caused me a lot of trouble!"

Sigrún has taught at the Iceland University of the Arts as a part-time lecturer since and was Dean of the Department of Fine Art from -. In – she held a research position at Reykjavík Art Museum focusing on the role of women in Icelandic art. She studied fine art at the Icelandic College of Arts and Crafts and at Pratt Institute, New York, and holds BA and MA degrees in art history and philosophy from the University of Iceland. Sigrún lives and works in Iceland.

"Calm down, calm down."

A dozen minutes later, Iori Kazuka began to rub the shoulders of Tenma Nozomi, who was sitting there sulking.

Being forced into the position of Amaterasu bloodline by one's own friend would be difficult for anyone to accept calmly, especially since Pegasus has no ambition.

If it were someone else, perhaps they would be delighted; but she, a former female mixed martial artist, suddenly became a descendant of gods.
"It's not that I wanted to trick you, but in this world, there's no escaping it, so I might as well—"

"Let's join forces, sisters, and make a big splash!"

???

"Yihua, are you planning a rebellion?"

The kimono-clad beauty huddled in the chair beside him was startled.
"What rebellion?!"

Iori Ichika, with her neck stiff, rebuked him.

"Our Pegasus is a genuine descendant of Amaterasu. Any disobedient one is a traitor!"

"Deserves to be killed!"

What you said makes sense, but I am speechless.

The timid Miya Hana shut her mouth, her eyes flickering slightly.

Don't be fooled by her seemingly fragile appearance, as she's always on the verge of tears; she's a patriarch of the underworld, and without some skill and ability, she would have been sold into a brothel long ago, let alone held the position of boss for so many years.

The so-called 'delicate' is both her usual personality and a kind of disguise.

"In that case,"

"What we need most right now is to enhance our strength of hope."

Since they were already "old friends," Miya Kana's delicate expression vanished, replaced by a serious and earnest one.

"Yihua, leverage the influence of the government and the Extraordinary Countermeasures Department to get other extraordinary individuals to help improve our chances."

“I know there’s a ‘Flying Demon’ in the Metropolitan Police Department who can transfer ‘spiritual power’ to other people.”

"There are also families of Onmyoji, Buddhist monks, and martial arts families."

"These extraordinary individuals with inherited skills should be able to offer many useful suggestions on how to develop the 'Eye of God'."

Then comes the practical application:
“The zaibatsu’s ‘Kengenkai’ has many extraordinary fighting experts. Let them serve as sparring partners for Hope.”

In this way, with the power of the entire island nation's supernatural community, Pegasus hopes to improve his strength as quickly as possible: he doesn't aspire to reach the Demon level, as long as he crosses the threshold of the Tiger level, he can secure his position as the Amaterasu bloodline!

If one can reach the Ghost level, then it will be the turn of the American President to come and pay his respects.

“I have already prepared for these things.”

Iori Kazuka gave her two best friends a thumbs-up, a gesture of reassurance, and then raised her hand to indicate that:
"But before that, I hope you'll meet with some other people."

"who?"

In response to Tenma's question, Iori Kazuka grinned.

"Of course it's the 'current Emperor,' and all the cabinet members of the entire island nation: whoever they are, they all have to bow down to you now."

???

"Just thinking about that kind of thing gives me a headache."

The thought of kneeling for hours without moving made Tianma want to refuse.

"Then refuse!"

With a wave of her hand, Iori Kazuka stood beside her friend.

"Don't worry, anyone who dares to mess with you, I'll tear them apart on the spot!"

"The entire island nation now needs you to deal with Hyuga Toneri; no one dares to go against you."

As for what happens next?

Once Hope's strength increases, who would dare to say anything?

The island nation's royal family has its moments of power. If they have a large army and many generals, they can naturally make the world submit to them. As long as Pegasus hopes to reach the Demon level, there are no taboos!

Iori Kazuka is very confident about this: after all, this is a one in a billion 'eye of God'.
