Chapter 225 Where am I, Sakura!
The leaden-gray clouds pressed down heavily.

The sky howled as it gathered the clouds, which intertwined and swirled together, forming a dark spiral directly above the neon-lit city. Rainstorms gathered within it, spewing out a musty white mist as if foreshadowing something.

Blue flames erupted from the tracks of a train on the Central Line. Passengers pressed against the windows, their expressions varied as they gazed at the deathly black sky. Some frantically checked their phones, trying to find any clues in the weather forecast, while excited middle school students took out their phones to take pictures and post them on social media, hoping to get likes.

But soon, they will discover
This is not a natural phenomenon to be joked about, but a disaster, a calamity that covers Tokyo.

No, it's not Tokyo.

Rather, it's a much wider distance.
【boom------------!------------】

The rumble of thunder accumulated its density, only occasionally falling in intervals of tens of seconds.

In an instant, the red steel frame of Tokyo Tower shimmered in the thunderstorm, raindrops falling from the sky shattered the observation windows, and the screens on the exterior walls of many buildings below Tokyo Tower lost their ability to project images, instead bursting with dense snow noise. The planes that had not yet landed in the sky projected blood-orange halos at the bottom of the cumulonimbus clouds.

That would be the end of the world.

This catastrophic scene, from its initial signs to its complete formation, took less than half an hour.

Lu Mingfei was the first to observe the phenomenon, but he was powerless to stop it.

No, that's not right.

You could even say that he was the one who brought about the current situation.

What on earth happened, boss?!

A loud, clamorous female voice echoed in Lu Mingfei's mind. It was Su Enxi, who had been ordered to stand by in Takamagahara. She was in a state of extreme panic. The device that could monitor elemental concentration was about to exceed its limit, which was hinting at a certain possibility.

The Dragon King has been revived.

In this era, the adult Dragon King has been revived!
[It far surpasses the peak power of Constantine's attack; it's an adult-level Dragon King—impossible! The Dragon Kings Norton and Jormungandr currently existing in Japan are under our control; they can't possibly appear! Unless…]

unless.

The only dragon king in this island nation to have a long-standing lineage.

【White King】

However, the White King should need a powerful parasite as its 'host' and a large amount of energy to revive.

Although Kassel observed the White King's presence early on and briefly allowed it to remain unchecked, it's impossible for the White King to have obtained such a large amount of energy in such a short time, relying solely on sea creatures!

blood.

The resurrection of dragons, and their strength after resurrection, almost entirely depend on high-purity dragon blood.

Hybrids, third-generation, and second-generation.

Could it be that the White King's embryo acquired an excessive amount of dragon blood in a very short period of time, and then evolved rapidly?
But where exactly are we supposed to find such a large quantity?
【.King general? 】

"Ah, I never expected him to do something like this."

Lu Mingfei was still standing on the top floor of Genji Heavy Industries. From his position, he could clearly see the distant horizon. At this moment, the seawater had turned into a color close to haze, while the sky above the sea was as black as ink.

(Since they can create clones of the 'King General,' it means Herzog can mass-produce clones of the third generation. With mature biotechnology, even dragon blood can be mass-produced; quantity has never been an issue.)
(No, that's not enough. To be honest, I've been wondering for a long time why I haven't been able to sense the presence of the Demon Clan throughout the entire Tokyo area. Could this guy have used all the Demon Clan members he's brainwashed as 'bait' to offer up to the White King?)
(And with this commotion, did Herzog also take away the blood of the [Ancient Dragon] he had taken from Black Swan Alley? That stuff should be the blood of the first generation of the species, which is why the White King has recovered to this extent.)
(And the final trigger—was me.)
Having returned to the mindset of a mercenary, Lu Mingfei objectively analyzed the answer.

Because of Lu Mingfei's magnetic field rotation that "extends to the entire Tokyo area and even beyond Tokyo," which is no different from, and even more powerful than, that of the Dragon King, the White King in the deep sea felt a life-threatening situation and thus completely returned from his state of suspended animation.

It really causes trouble for others.
Lu Mingfei sighed.

He hadn't expected the King to be so determined as to merge all his current trump cards in exchange for the [White King] card. All the Oni + all King clones + Ancient Dragon Blood.

The resurrection of the White King was forcibly accelerated, and after all this was over, the ancient dragon was allowed to possess a physical body, and then Relic was used to overwrite the consciousness.

So, what should we do?
"Su Enxi, just keep an eye on Xia Mi and Lao Tang, and don't make any rash moves."

But! We don't need the long-legged girl and Zero to go to your place—

"Need not."

Lu Mingfei knew that Zero and Mai Shude were very strong, and that they hadn't even reached their limits when they fought each other before.

However, given that the threat posed by the White King is still unclear, one person is enough to scout ahead and "die."

He would only call two people if necessary.

He touched the headset.

"Senior brother, boss, could you please go and disperse the crowd?"

Chu Zihang and Caesar are both very strong, but the latter is clearly more suitable for management. Because of the existence of the [concert], which has both advantages and disadvantages, a lot of Tokyo residents have gathered near Genji Heavy Industries. It is a fortress-like place that can accommodate a lot of people.

If the Genji brothers and Caesar Chu Zihang are left behind, Xia Mi can keep them in check, and the residents of Tokyo can be protected.

And what about you?

"I'm going to stop the White King from being resurrected."

Lu Mingfei said succinctly.

Now he can clearly sense the source of the elements, which is in that distant harbor.

It was as if a destructive wind was blowing from the ends of the earth, threatening to devour this steel city.

If the other party has been resurrected, then I am one of the very few hybrids in all of Tokyo who are capable of stopping the White King.

And it has to be done by me.

Lu Mingfei leaned forward slightly, then stomped on the ground, instantly transforming into a white-gold stream of light that leaped toward the top of the building in front of Genji Heavy Industries. After leaving an afterimage, it quickly refracted and disappeared from sight at a rapid speed.

Chu Zihang and Caesar watched Lu Mingfei walk away, and almost simultaneously clenched their fists silently from an angle they thought no one could see.

They were all feeling terrible.

They were once such close comrades-in-arms, but now he can only watch him grow stronger. He has the resolve to give up everything to become stronger, but even so, he can't keep up with Lu Mingfei's evolution speed.

The gap is too big.

However, reason is still enough to restrain them from doing what they should do.

But just as they turned around, they bumped into a red shadow that had just run towards them.

The girl, now dressed as a shrine maiden, wore loose-fitting clothes that bounced up and down as she ran. When she came to Caesar Chu Zihang, she suddenly raised the notebook in her hand.
