Chapter 432 'Break Between Classes'

"Surrender, I surrender!"

Discarding half of his flintlock musket, Takeda's "Arsenal General" Morikawa Tomoyuki raised his hands in a French military salute.

"Hey, is this really necessary?"

With a snake-bone knife held horizontally in front of his neck,
Morikawa Tomoyuki, wearing plate armor, looked utterly helpless.

"We're not adversaries, what good will it do you to send me back?"

"Hehehe, no benefit at all~~"

Wearing a female high school uniform, he used a strange weapon to lift Morikawa Tomoyuki's chin, and the other party chuckled.

"Up close, her face is actually quite to my liking."

what?
Is this school uniform from Jinqiu Academy High School?

Isn't that high school known for its strict discipline?
How can there be such a wild female student? And she's so tall, almost 1.8 meters, right?

"Snake Bone, stop fooling around."

Yukino Satsuki, dressed in women's clothing from the Warring States period, walked over helplessly, carrying a long spear.

“Excuse me, I am Yukino Satsuki, a student at Jinqiu Academy High School. This is my friend.”

Oh.
No wonder,
Morikawa Tomoyuki suddenly realized that his school uniform was almost turned into a miniskirt. So that's why: this superhuman was a 'native'.

"So, what's going on with Yukino-san?"

"Um, if I said I'm here to collaborate, would you believe me?"

Upon hearing Yukino Satsuki's words, Morikawa Tomoyuki hesitated to speak.

You've already led your men to break through my army's lines, beaten me to my knees, and then told me it was all to seek cooperation?
Are you kidding me?

brush,

"Is this the guy from May?"

A two-meter-long giant sword suddenly stopped in front of Morikawa Tomoyuki, the gale it generated was as solid as iron, making Morikawa Tomoyuki's face tighten.

"Very good, from now on you will be May's subordinate!"

? ?
Okay, okay, this is how you play, right?
"Big Sister Yukino, please accept my bow!"

With seven superhumans assisting them, his fledgling 'Armor Team' was no match for them: if they lost, they had to stand at attention. Although the principal told them to 'team up,' he didn't say anything about being close friends: one side being the king and the other the mount, that was also considered 'teaming up.'

"Ahem, please get up."

Standing on the battlefield filled with the stench of blood and gunpowder, Yukino Satsuki coughed and clenched her fist, feeling uneasy about the 'cooperation' that was about to take place.

"Are there really that many powerful groups around here?"

After talking with Tomoyuki Morikawa, Satsuki Yukino gained a clearer understanding of this 'world'.

“That’s right, there’s a village almost every few hilltops. And—”

A certain monster!
As a general of the Takeda clan, Tomoyuki Morikawa had a more comprehensive understanding of the world.

"And every five days' journey apart, there would be a castle belonging to a 'daimyo': however, strangely, there is no central power in this world, and each 'daimyo' is constantly expanding with themselves as the center."

At the same time, they are constantly being eliminated.

Ultimately, it's because this world possesses extraordinary power.

The daimyo built city after city on the foundation of 'samurai', and among them were extraordinary professionals such as shrine maidens, monks, and exorcists.

In general, cities belong to humans; but once you leave the city, they belong to monsters.

As for those small villages and towns, they can still struggle to survive if they have shrines or similar deities to worship them.

"Without a superhuman to protect us, we will soon become food for monsters."

"And the resentment of the dead will give birth to new monsters."

It's a vicious cycle in the world!

"Humans would forge the teeth and scales of powerful monsters into weapons, for example—"

Pointing to the greatsword that Bankotsu was carrying, Morikawa Tomoyuki continued:

"If I'm not mistaken, this is also a weapon forged from monsters."

"That's right,"

Mangu readily admitted it.
"My beloved sword, 'Savage Dragon,' is said to have been forged from the claws of a great demon called 'Dragon Bone Demon.'"

As he spoke, the handsome Barbarian stroked the greatsword.

"Indestructible, it is my second most cherished treasure!"

The first piece,
Of course, it's the other brothers in the seven-man team!
In this world, death is commonplace: daimyo wage war against each other, and monsters roam freely. In an era without contraception, where almost every family has five or six children, maintaining a population 'balance' is naturally due to the even more terrifying consumption of resources.

The seven-man team are all orphans left behind after the war and monsters. They have supported each other to get to where they are today and are undoubtedly 'brothers'.

"My goal is to acquire a powerful enough weapon and then leave this world."

Now that he was a prisoner, Tomoyuki Morikawa decided to speak his mind.

"The head of the Takeda family has already contacted the extraordinary swordsmith 'Gray Blade Workshop' for me. As long as I obtain the suitable materials, I can forge a sword that is truly mine. Unfortunately—"

His newly formed 'arquebus squad' was decimated by these people in front of him.

"There are still so many secrets in this world."

Yukino Satsuki seemed to be deep in thought. Forging a famous sword using yokai as materials sounded quite unique.

"But I heard that 'Grey Blade Workshop' isn't a good place either. They use 10 babies as materials to forge a good knife. Sigh, what a world."

Morikawa Tomoyuki sighed. It was only because these students were all elites that they hadn't fallen to the bottom of society. In this world, the people at the bottom of society were truly living a life worse than death. Whether it was a daimyo or a yokai, they were just used as 'expendable resources'.

"The strong prey on the weak; that's how it should be."

After saying this matter-of-factly, 'Sleepy Bones' with its metal claws suddenly changed its expression.

"Damn,"

"That 'guy' is coming out!"

"Hey, Sleepy Bones, don't cause any trouble on the battlefield!"

The others sounded rather helpless, but there was nothing unusual about it; they seemed to have taken it for granted.

Next second,
"Huh? I killed someone again?"

The extraordinary mercenary known as 'Sleepy Bones' suddenly became sad.

"Why do we have to fight to the death when we can all live in peace?"

"Stop talking nonsense, Sleepy Bone."

The three-meter-tall, burly man next to him scratched his messy hair.
"If we don't fight, what will we eat?"

With their skills, they could survive by hunting, but nothing beats killing.

You can get 'money' by killing people, and then buy lots of delicious food—but since joining in May, those 'delicious foods' have become hard to swallow.

Moreover, even they need to repair their armor and maintain their weapons. In particular, 'Silver Bones' and 'Bone Refining' are major consumers of materials.

"I know, sigh~~~"

"Let's see if there are any other wounded; maybe we can save them."

Sleepy Bones, who was originally the second strongest fighter in the team, suddenly seemed like a different person; he actually started trying to heal the 'Armored Gun Corps' soldiers on the ground.

"Sleeping Bones' second personality has awakened,"

Unlike other mercenaries who, "though they don't know why, that's just how 'Sleeping Bones' should be," Yukino Satsuki knew very well that the extraordinary mercenary named "Sleeping Bones" possessed two personalities: a kind doctor and a bloodthirsty killer.

Clearly, this is a typical example of someone driven 'mad' by the chaos of the world and forced to resort to 'schizophrenia' to protect themselves.

"Sigh, what a world!"
I was only halfway through my reflection when
Yukino Satsuki was startled and turned to look at Morikawa Tomoyuki, who was also looking at her.

"Did you receive it too?"

"It seems you are too."

"May, what's wrong?"

Snake Bone, who was still holding Morikawa Tomoyuki hostage with a knife, was the first to notice the change in the two.

"Is it him—"

"No!"

Having stopped the snake bone from killing, Yukino Satsuki first closed her eyes and carefully 'read' the words in her mind. After opening her eyes, she smiled.

"Barbarian Bones, Snake Bones, Sleeping Bones, Ferocious Bones, Refined Bones, Mist Bones, and Silver Bones, would you like to come to my house for a visit?"

"Huh, another world?"

On the other side, Inuyasha looked at him like he was an idiot.

"Woman, have you lost your mind?"

"Come if you want, don't come if you don't!"

Kagome, who had originally invited the other person to her home, immediately lost her temper.

"Hello, students from Huakaiyuan, let's go!"

"Wait, I'm going too!"

Inuyasha grabbed Kagome's wrist with a cold smile.

"I'd like to see what your so-called 'other world' looks like."

Traveling through time and space might seem unbelievable to others, but Inuyasha has experience with it: his father, 'Inu no Taisho,' was a top-tier expert capable of interfering with space! His tomb is said to be hidden in a space that no one can find.

Tokyo, Jujutsu High School.

Teleportation Hall:
Brush, brush, brush, brush, brush, brush
A burst of light appeared, followed by various figures emerging from it.

There were warriors clad in full armor, wearing helmets, with long swords at their waists and spears in their hands; there were priests in wide robes and black pointed hats; there were monks in monastic robes, leaning on their staffs. Almost all of them who had managed to survive in this 'other world' had changed their attire.

Those who can still keep their school uniforms are either incredibly lucky or extremely strong.

This is it.

"Why does it look like a big metal cage?"

Besides the teenagers who were clearly students just by their expressions, there were many others who were obviously not from this 'world'.

A silver-haired boy with dog ears, a little girl hiding behind a priest, and several armored superhumans poised to attack, their hands already on their weapons.
slap slap slap,

"Welcome, everyone, to the 'New World'."

The crisp sound attracted the attention of these people from another world. It was a young woman dressed in equally strange clothing.

"I am Kawawa Mai from the Metropolitan Police Department. I will be in charge of your journey to the new world."

"Hey, are you the 'principal'?"

He stepped forward, carrying the savage bones of the 'Savage Dragon', his fighting spirit soaring.

"Principal, are you referring to You?"

brush,

The next second, the giant sword 'Savage Dragon' slashed down at Mayi!
The powerful force pushed the air aside, and the resulting gale swept out in all directions—

Snapped,

He raised his hand and grabbed the greatsword, taking a slight half-step back.

Mayi, whose body glowed with a ghostly blue light, couldn't help but complain:

"Whose person is this?"

"Is this some kind of exaggeration? You've managed to fool even a Tiger-level superhuman into coming here?!"

"Red Bean's Private Marseille -

Satsuki Yukino, who was a beat slow to react, quickly ran over and gave a standard bow of apology:

"Bankotsu, this is our town magistrate. Quickly put away your sword."

"A town magistrate? He's very powerful!"

As a 'machi bugyō', it was the ancient police agency of the island nation.

"Are you 'participating forces' or 'united forces'?"

Mayi: I'm not well-educated, so please speak in modern language.

"Um, Inspector Kawai should be considered a high-ranking member of 'Yo-ryu', right?"

"Yoriki" refers to the manager in the "town magistrate," equivalent to a police inspector; "Doshinshu" refers to the lower-ranking members, equivalent to patrol officers.

May explained on his behalf, and Mangu sheathed his greatsword: although he hadn't used his full strength, his strike had been caught by her bare hands. Without a doubt, this young woman in strange clothes was stronger than him.

"First of all, I am not the principal."

"Secondly, please abide by the laws of our world, otherwise—"

Ma Yi clenched her five fingers, and a ball of deep blue light gathered!

???

Even though they didn't know what kind of 'sorcery' it was, the people who were teleported out still felt an instinctive fear!

If that ball of light were thrown at us, very few of us would survive.

"Don't be too nervous,"

"Come here for a physical examination first, and then you can begin your journey to another world. We, the Town Magistrates, will never harm anyone without permission."

"This woman is very strong!"

Inuyasha looked serious; the other person gave him a dangerous feeling.

"master."

The little girl 'Koharu', who was hiding behind the priest, shrank back even further.

"It's alright, come with me."

"Inuyasha, this way~~"

"Don't use force lightly, everyone. You've seen it for yourselves—"

The students who had been teleported back began to reassure the 'people' they had brought. Yukino Satsuki gave a slight nod to the Metropolitan Police Department's extraordinary lieutenants guarding the hall.

“All the town magistrates here are superhumans.”

"Yes, they are no weaker than us."

"It seems that our world is indeed too weak."

The Sleeping Bones and Refining Bones have an opening; in their own world, they are 'famous' mercenaries, not invincible, but with few rivals.

But in this world, everywhere you look, there are 'high-ranking warriors'!
The young woman leading the group is even a powerful demon.

But the pride of these experts also made them secretly speculate:

Perhaps so many powerful figures were only brought here to suppress them?
