I planted a sacred tree in Tokyo.

Chapter 264 The Strongest in History

"You're lying, right?"

"The mighty Abe no Seimei actually cooperated with Yamata no Orochi?"

"Can the giant serpent absorb everyone's negative emotions like fear, dread, and hatred to revive? Then what about us?"

In Tokyo, countless Japanese people, hiding in their homes, parking lots, and subway stations, watched the live stream that had been cut off. Looking up, they saw only pale faces.

"Everyone, don't be afraid!"

"The more afraid we are, the stronger the serpent becomes."

Someone stepped forward to try to boost morale; but their hesitant words were filled with forced strain.

"If the divine tree were possessed by that great Onmyoji—"

A soft gurgling sound was heard.

"Shut up!!"

"shut up!"

In an instant, the faces of the refugees changed drastically, and they shouted angrily.

A multitude of cannibalistic gazes swept around, wishing they could find the person who had just spoken and beat them to death!
"The government will not stand idly by,"

"Kafka Riku, Shio the Monk, and Kakaiin Yura-san. Our extraordinary abilities will surely defeat that despicable Onmyoji!"

"And also Lord Hakuzosu, and Lord Mikamiko Ei."

Someone, feigning composure, began to name the top experts on the human side one by one.

"Yeah!"

"He's just an Onmyoji from a thousand years ago, we can definitely win!"

Others chimed in.
They are unwilling, unable, and unwilling to see any other outcome than victory.

If even the sacred tree is destroyed, then where on this entire island nation is safe?

Everyone says they're not afraid, and reason tells them they can't afford to have feelings of fear, sadness, or dread right now. But facing death, especially the death of loved ones, who can be unafraid? Who isn't?
We must win this battle!
---

"Holy Son, how's the situation on your end?"

It must be said that the equipment of the special police is really tough; it was dropped from a height of several hundred meters without being damaged.

"Cough, I'm fine for now."

The mature policewoman, rubbing her buttocks as she got up from the ground, gritted her teeth.

"But others need medical assistance."

Fujisei was at least a master who had reached the 'Tiger Level', and after falling several hundred meters, he only felt sore in his back and waist.

The other special police officers weren't so tough; they were groaning in pain all over the ground. It was only because they were superhumans that they were in such a state. If it were an ordinary person, they would already be a pile of minced meat.

I'll go after them right away.

"No,"

Director Zhuya, speaking through the earpiece, stopped Fuji Seiko's impulsive behavior.

Given the methods that 'Abe no Seimei' has demonstrated, even a wolf-level monster wouldn't be able to stand up in front of him, so why would he chase after him?
To die?
"Take your men into the Sky Tower and arrest that bastard Jiu Kong Yao Ai!"

In front of the entire island nation, Abe no Seimei and Kusora Yua's abrupt break was witnessed by everyone, and they all understood that the little girl had been used.

but--

The government and everyone in the know still hate this guy!
Not only did it expose the secrets that had been painstakingly concealed, but it also led to the 'legendary strongest Onmyoji' heading towards the Divine Tree District: how many high-ranking officials and nobles were so desperate that they wished they could devour Jiu Kong Yao Ai alive.

"Yes."

Fuji Seiko lowered her hand from the headset and looked around.

"Those who can still fight, come with me!"

Sacred Tree District
"Please do not crowd!"

"Maintain order and leave in an orderly manner under the guidance of staff!"

Under the guidance of the staff, the crowds worshipping the sacred tree dispersed in an orderly manner; the order was relatively good, but the 'VIP area' shrouded by the sacred tree was in complete chaos!
Those on the outskirts also joined the fleeing crowds, while those in the core area simply rushed to the shrine, as if they were going to live and die with Inari.

Caught in the middle, they wanted to go to the shrine but were afraid they wouldn't be allowed in; yet they were also afraid they wouldn't be able to withstand a powerful enemy who came knocking on their door.

After all, he was the strongest Onmyoji in legend, who dominated an entire era!

Taitung District
If you want to travel from Sumida Ward to Shinju Ward, you will first pass through the Taito and Bunkyo areas.

As the smallest of Tokyo's 23 wards, Taito Ward is known for its leather goods, dolls, toys, and traditional crafts; it is home to Senso-ji Temple, Ueno Toshogu Shrine, and Torigoe Shrine. Unfortunately, both traditions and temples were considered 'new and inexperienced' by the great Onmyoji of a thousand years ago.

So he didn't even glance at the 'new traces' beneath his feet, and slowly drifted away.

Chiyoda,
Metropolitan Police Department Command Center.

"Target locked: Abe no Seimei. Give the order!"

Upon hearing the request from the front, the supreme commander of the Ground Self-Defense Force, Maritime Self-Defense Force, and Air Self-Defense Force, who is also the prime minister of the island nation, gave the order directly.

"emission!"

call out------

A beam of light streaked across the sky above Taitung District, hurtling toward Abe no Seimei at a terrifying speed of Mach 10.

next moment,
boom! !

A small mountain in the distance exploded with a deafening roar, and amidst the flames and electricity, a large number of metal parts shot into the sky.

In the air, a straight, twisted trajectory stretched from the explosion to the side of the Great Onmyoji, with scattered flashes of lightning jumping along the trajectory.

"Railgun. Destroyed."

Amidst the bitter report, cabinet officials pressed for answers with anxiety.

What kind of attack was it?

The cabinet had anticipated the failure of the 'railgun,' which was built with the nation's full resources. What they were concerned about was whether they had been able to test the enemy's capabilities.

"The weapon is... the railgun."

???

"Sir, the high-speed flight tracking system shows that our electromagnetic gun was destroyed by its own projectile."

Ah this
The cabinet officials who had all rushed here looked at each other, bewildered.

"Missile system is ready, shall we launch?"

Regardless of their thoughts, the troops at the front sent another inquiry.

In fact, since the arrival of the superhuman, the island nation's military factories have been operating at full capacity, continuously producing various weapons at maximum output. The island nation was already overwhelmed by a sense of crisis, and now it is even more eager to "destroy the country," accelerating the manufacture of various weapons.

Many of these weapons were used to protect the sacred tree: if something happened to the sacred tree, the island nation would be practically finished.

"emission!"

Without a second thought, the Prime Minister gritted his teeth and gave the order once again.

Swoosh, s ...

In an instant, missiles rose into the air in parks, streets, and military bases across nearly half of Tokyo's inner city, including Kita Ward, Arakawa Ward, and Taito Ward! Countless missiles, trailing arcs of flame, hurtled in from all directions.

Looking up, it's as if countless lines are slicing through the sky.

Tsk tsk tsk, that's really something.
Such a grand gesture, such a resolute decision, even impressed the great Onmyoji 'Abe no Seimei' who was floating in the air.

This is Tokyo! The island nation's government launched hundreds of missiles without any regard for consequences. Even though the people had all evacuated, the economic losses were still significant.
"It's quite lively,"

Faced with missiles hurtling in from all directions, the Great Yin-Yang Master swiftly opened his folding fan and gently waved it.

Brush, brush, brush, brush, brush, brush, brush, brush

Once these incoming missiles approached within a hundred meters of the Great Yin-Yang Master, they vanished into thin air.

It's like another dimension is hidden in the air, constantly swallowing up missiles.

???

In just a few seconds, the sky fell silent.

No explosion, no smoke.

If it weren't for those white streaks left by the missiles as they streaked across the sky, one would almost think they were hallucinating.

"It's just a few fireworks."

Tap the folding fan downwards gently.
Boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom!

In parks, streets, and military bases in the cities of Kita Ward, Arakawa Ward, and Taito Ward, flames and smoke rose from the explosions, and shockwaves spread in circles, uprooting surrounding trees and streetlights; buildings and windows shattered; and burning craters were blasted into the ground, with the wreckage of armored vehicles still faintly visible in the craters.

Total destruction!

"Report the situation,"

In the Metropolitan Police Department's command center, the island nation's prime minister spoke in a hoarse voice, but received no response.

"I want you to report the situation!!"

He threw himself onto the command platform, his eyes bloodshot.

"Are they all dead?!"

However, no matter how fiercely he roared, "Speak!"

No one responded.

"Prime Minister, the missile site that launched the attack."

Director Zhu Ya pushed up her glasses, stepped forward, and took the initiative to speak.

"They've all been wiped out."

".I know,"

His voice suddenly became so weak that it was almost inaudible, and the old man, with his hands supporting him on the control panel, hunched over.

"So many high-tech weapons, actually, actually!"

Useless!

It even turned around and destroyed the island nation's army.

"It should be some kind of 'spatial teleportation' ability."

Amidst the pale faces of the high-ranking officials, Director Zhu Ya spoke again to explain:
"What destroys the electromagnetic railgun is the metal projectiles it fires; what destroys the missile sites is the missiles fired by the soldiers."

The simplest and easiest thing to think of to do this is 'spatial' ability.

but--

"Spatial teleportation, how can this be cracked?"

Faced with the Prime Minister's hopeful face, Director Zhu Ya almost couldn't help but roll her eyes.

You ask me, who do I ask?
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.

The art of flying thunder god!
"Hmph~~ Once you master this technique, you will be truly invincible."

Whether it was the electromagnetic railgun or the dense bombardment of missiles, 'Abe no Seimei' did not stop for a moment. He continued to fly slowly forward while covering the lower half of his face with a folding fan so that the slightly upturned corners of his mouth would not affect the aura of the 'millennial sage'.

Spatial teleportation, in any anime or novel, would be considered an incredible ability.

In the Naruto world, the Fourth Hokage, Minato Namikaze, used this technique to instantly kill more than fifty ninjas, earning him the title of "Yellow Flash".

Later, during Boruto's era, Boruto set up coordinates throughout the ninja world, simultaneously enduring pursuit from the five great ninja villages and battling the Otsutsuki forces; his swift movements were largely due to the Flying Thunder God Technique. He fulfilled the vision of one of the three legendary figures on the forum, "Minato Going Home."

Besides being used for teleportation of oneself, the 'Flying Thunder God Technique' can also be used to teleport external objects.

Flying Thunder God Technique – Using this technique, both the Second and Fourth Hokage demonstrated catching a Tailed Beast Ball with their bare hands and transferring it to another location.

Now, this alias of the great Onmyoji 'Abe no Seimei' has, with his mastery of the 'Flying Thunder God Technique', completely declared that modern weapons are utterly useless in his presence!

That's true invincibility!
"Gentlemen, do not be discouraged."

In the Metropolitan Police Department's command center, Chief Inspector Takeya personally encouraged his colleagues.

"It seems that Abe no Seimei's ability can only redirect ranged attacks, specifically those from our side's superhumans."

Perhaps close combat could be used to attack him?

Of course, whether it is or not, we'll only know after we've tried it.

"Yeah!"

"Master Zhixiong is almost here; he will definitely be able to hold them off—"

Hope returned to the eyes of the cabinet ministers; now they could only place their hopes on the extraordinary powerhouse.

However, someone else arrived before Monk Zhixiong.

brush--

A figure fell from the sky.

With a soft thud, it landed lightly on the roof of a building.

"Dear viewers, I will be providing you with a live report."

What descended from the sky was an extraordinary blogger wielding high-tech equipment. No, it should now be called KYG, who has transformed into a 'news oligarch'!

He had originally bestowed the 'extraordinary pearl' he found upon a few carefully selected subordinates; normally, he wouldn't need to personally intervene in extraordinary events. But today:

"I just took a look from the sky, and the government's missile attack failed."

KYG pointed his device at the Grand Onmyoji floating in the sky not far away, and swallowed hard.

"This might be my last live stream."

According to the intelligence he received, this great Onmyoji could kill him with just a glance.

But as a fun-loving person, and a 'reporter' who pursues extraordinary battles, how could he not come to this battlefield?
"Damn it! To witness the magnificence of the strongest Onmyoji, even death would be worthwhile!"

This time, there were no comments in the live stream.

The fate of this island nation hinges on this battle.

Who has the mind to send bullet comments anymore?

call out-----

As countless people watched intently through the live stream, a golden light streaked across the sky.

"Amitabha,"

The golden light did not land, but suddenly stopped opposite the Great Yin-Yang Master.

“Benefactor Abe, the sea of ​​suffering is boundless, but turning back is the shore.”

As the golden light faded, the figure of a young monk holding a 'three-pronged vajra' was revealed. He was none other than Shio, one of the island nation's 'demon-level' powerhouses!
"Heh, you little monk."

Faced with the young monk's dissuasion, the great Onmyoji smiled slightly.

"I once trespassed into the Hirasaka of the Underworld and crossed the Sanzu River on the other side; now that I have returned, why should I look back?"

"Then, this humble monk will offend you."

Monk Zhixiong was never a silver-tongued person.
The great Onmyoji in front of me is not someone who can be dismissed with a few words, so I decided to start fighting directly.

After he finished speaking, golden light burst forth from his body in an instant!

The light was endless, yet gentle and harmless to the eyes, covering his entire body as if he were a golden Arhat.

The spreading light instantly solidified into a physical form, and a phantom image of a hundred-meter-tall Guanyin with a hundred hands appeared in the city.

Guanyin's face is compassionate, her right leg is raised, her left leg is bent, and her ankle is placed on her right knee. Her arms behind her are either forming mudras, holding ritual implements, holding a treasure vase, or holding a willow branch. They radiate golden Buddhist light, but there is also a hidden blood-red light rising within them.

[It's the Master's Hundred-Hand Guanyin!]

What are mere Onmyoji compared to the master's Buddhist teachings?

Master Zhixiong, slap him to death!

【Won! 】

The live stream chat instantly erupted in excitement. Seeing the arrival of a powerful figure, everyone's spirits were lifted, and various comments flew across the screen.

"Hundred-Hand Guanyin?"

Abe no Seimei smiled as he glanced at the hundred-meter-tall Guanyin statue before him.

"If it were the Thousand-Armed Buddha, I might be able to fight me. But you, little monk—"

He raised the folding fan in his hand upwards:
Boom, boom! ! !

The earth roared and trembled, the streets churned and buildings leaned precariously.

It's as if some ferocious, unparalleled demon is about to break free from its seal beneath Taitung District.

The next moment, under Master Zhixiong's wary gaze, everything went dark, and the earth in front of him suddenly rose up, stretching to the sky like a mountain range that went straight up and down!
Defensive earth magic?
Just as Monk Zhixiong was filled with doubt, a shout came from afar.

"Master, run!"

escape?
Why did you run away?!
The monk Zhixiong, who was protected by the Hundred-Hand Guanyin's 'image', turned his head and was stunned.

Besides the 'mountain range' in front of him, there were four other 'mountains' rising abruptly around him, blocking out the sky and the sun.

No, these aren't mountains, they're five fingers!

Amidst the gazes of countless viewers in the live stream, five mountain-like fingers suddenly emerged from the ground and grasped the hundred-meter-tall Guanyin statue.

"Little monk, go underground and cultivate some more."

In the calm voice of the Great Onmyoji, he grasped the five fingers of Guanyin and pressed down with his palm.

boom------! ! !
Shockwaves that tore through the earth and clouds spread outwards, causing the entire Taitung District to undulate as if struck by a magnitude 10 earthquake, with buildings exploding like biscuits.

"This is terrifying!"

KYG leaped into the air, dodging the shockwave from the ground, but was swept away by the gale and sent flying backward.

On his live stream screen, a 'new' mountain range appeared.

And the barrage of comments went completely silent.

The highly anticipated Master Zhixiong was suppressed as soon as he arrived?

"The Strongest Onmyoji"

Murmuring this legendary title,

Director Zhu Ya was left with only bitterness, mixed with a hint of relief.

Looks like I'm finally free from overtime?
