A person in Tokyo becomes a demon god

Chapter 42 Tokyo Unrestricted Mixed Martial Arts

Nenma District, Nenma Camp.

"What, you want us to send someone out?"

"Are we going to deal with a supernatural disaster?"

"Sir, my stomach hurts, I need to ask for leave—"

Upon hearing that they were to be dispatched, the soldiers in the camp were in an uproar. They all seemed to be possessed by Usopp from the world of One Piece, trembling with fear, riddled with illnesses, and making a complete fool of themselves.

Although it is named the 'First Division', it has no relation to the First Division that was completely wiped out in history; the predecessor of this unit was actually the First Reserve District of the Island Nation's Police Force, which was converted into an infantry division in the 1960s.

Because of its status as a defeated nation, the island nation has no army: the people in these self-defense forces are essentially civil servants.

Since they are wage earners, it's impossible to expect them to be like soldiers.

"idiot!!"

The Self-Defense Force officer was furious at the sight of these people making excuses and delaying.

"You're being sent to deal with supernatural beings?"

"Are you hoping to overfeed them?!"

The officers at least had some ambition to climb the ranks, but the lower-ranking soldiers were truly "contract soldiers," receiving four years' worth of military pay before being sent to do "labor dispatch" work; if it weren't for the Self-Defense Forces' generous salaries, nobody would want to come here.

"Bring non-lethal weapons!"

"Head to Chiyoda Ward and disperse the demonstrators!"

?

"Oh, they're just a protester. I thought they were..."

"Damn it, always causing trouble for others!"

"Let's go, let's go!"

Upon learning that the target was an ordinary person, the Self-Defense Force camp, which had just been filled with 'wailing and lamentation', immediately erupted with astonishing 'fighting spirit', with everyone becoming energetic and eager to show their skills.

Dispersing the protesters? They know this all too well!

Don't forget, island nations are also 'democratic countries'.

Various marches and demonstrations, large and small, are also an indispensable part of daily life.

Of course, unlike the armed marches with fireworks, Molotov cocktails, and bricks in England and France, the marches in this island nation are all about "not causing trouble for others." The marches are usually very polite, or rather, lackluster. Most of the time, the Self-Defense Forces only need to be responsible for traffic control.

As for something like what happened in America: no matter what kind of march it is, it will eventually turn into a "zero-dollar purchase"; or even a street brawl or a match made by combining horoscopes, that is absolutely impossible.

Island nations prohibit guns; not everyone can handle firearms like a certain "top male gunner."

As for the Yakuza who possess firearms?
How could they possibly get involved in something like this?

I have no money!
A march of five thousand people?

"Why pick this time: These are not citizens!"

"Bring the bean slingshot! The pepper spray gun! What? You don't have any? If you don't have any, can't you just grab a baton?"

Normally, only a single regiment would be deployed, but this time, three infantry regiments and one logistics support regiment—almost the entire army—were mobilized. More than four thousand Self-Defense Force members set off from Nerima Ward in various vehicles, heading aggressively towards Chiyoda.

It's time to show the 'might' of the island nation's Self-Defense Forces!

Chiyoda Ward,

"Storm the Prime Minister's official residence?"

Standing atop the building next to her, with a huge 'Standard Chartered Bank' sign hanging on it, the woman in black looked down in astonishment at everything below.

"When did the law-abiding islanders become so radical?"

Yes, across the street;
The protesters even began storming the Prime Minister's official residence.

Encouraged by those in the crowd who were holding loudspeakers, many people rushed forward and started pushing doors and smashing windows: if you didn't know better, you would think you were on Capitol Hill in America.

"It must have been done by another country."

This is supernatural power!

Throughout history, every country has left behind numerous records of the pursuit of supernatural powers.

Those emperors: No matter how wise and powerful they were when they were young, once they got older, they would devote a lot of energy, manpower and resources to the topic of 'immortality'.

The magnificent tombs, preservation techniques, and colossal statues are traces of countless heroes' yearning for life; even the major religions—if they didn't claim to go to heaven after death and enjoy wealth and glory in the afterlife, how could they have become so popular?
Ordinary people don't want to hear about enlightenment or wisdom, nor do they want to hear about being kind to others; these are just spiritual sustenance for their fear of death.

right now,

Supernatural forces have appeared in the island nation! The evidence is irrefutable and unprecedented!

If it weren't for America's aircraft carrier fleet, a 'multinational coalition' would probably have already marched into Tokyo.

Now that America and the island nations are blocking the news, it's clear they want to 'take all the credit,' and other countries are naturally not going to stand for it.

America's traditional 'allies', including England, France, and Germany, all sent out a large number of spies.

The current massive 'protests' are orchestrated by these countries.

Why isn't there a big one?
Da Mao couldn't do something so 'delicate'.

Moreover, Russia is burdened with thousands of sanctions and is currently enjoying its "wartime economy," so it doesn't have the capacity to intervene.

"Self-Defense Forces enter the field,"

Under the watchful gaze of the dark-skinned beauty, a line of armored vehicles sped along the well-connected roads.

Next to the Prime Minister's Official Residence is the Cabinet Office Building, and on the other side of the square are the Diet Press Center, the Cabinet Office, the Disaster Management Authority, and other government agencies; it's understandable that the Self-Defense Forces arrived so quickly.

So:

"Shall we add fuel to the fire?"

Just as the dark-skinned beauty on the rooftop of Standard Chartered Bank was stroking her chin, considering whether to make a move:
Thump,

A crisp sound,
The sound rang out from an armored vehicle parked outside the demonstrators.

The flickering orange-red flames began to flow and spread across the armored vehicle like 'liquid'.

"Ok?"

This unexpected turn of events left the beauty in black momentarily stunned.

Molotov cocktails

Oh dear, I was proven wrong. I was just saying the 'protests' in the island nation were low-intensity, but I didn't expect them to use Molotov cocktails—no, wait, that's not right.

The arrival of the armored vehicles caused a commotion among the demonstrators on the outskirts; amidst the noise, a Self-Defense Force soldier holding a megaphone suddenly leaned back.

He was shot dead.

The woman in dark hair narrowed her eyes.

Just as the protesters were feeling bewildered, several Self-Defense Force soldiers went to check on their colleague who had suddenly collapsed from heatstroke:

"Rush!!"

"These guys are government lackeys!"

"Seize their guns and force the cabinet to explain the inside story—"

Suddenly, several people rushed out from the crowd of demonstrators and, caught off guard, knocked down the Self-Defense Force members in front of them.

? ?
At the same time, these protesters suddenly rushed towards the Self-Defense Forces.

This is certainly not to say that they were 'brave and fearless,' but rather that someone in the group was tacitly pushing them forward, causing the people in front to appear from the sky as a mass of black, which had become layered and overlapping.

"You? What are you doing—"

"Back off! Back off!"

Faced with the sudden surge of the crowd, the Self-Defense Forces, who had initially thought it was just a simple mission, were filled with shock and anger; before they could even think of how to deal with it, the people in the front row were knocked down.

"Sergeant! Oda is dead!!"

Even more deadly was the mournful cry that rang out from behind.

"what?!"

Looking back, he saw his second-class soldier, Oda, lying face up on the ground with a bloody hole between his eyebrows.

???

"Rebellion! Rebellion!"

"All units, fire! Fire! Fire!!"

A chill ran from the soles of his feet straight to the top of his head. As the sergeant shouted, he pressed his helmet and pulled the trigger on his grenade launcher.

Whoosh—bang!

A grenade flew into the crowd but did not explode; instead, it emitted thick smoke.

Tear gas!
"Cough cough cough,"

"Ah, what is this?"

As the smoke spread out, ordinary islanders around the landing point immediately covered their mouths and noses in pain, tears and snot streaming down their faces uncontrollably.

Using tear gas without establishing a proper defense is not a good option.

Furthermore, normally when using such a device, an opening needs to be left so that the protesters can escape and disperse. However, due to obstruction by certain individuals, the southern intersection, originally intended for evacuation, has been firmly occupied. Therefore:

"Damn it, the government's lackeys opened fire!"

"Let's all rush out together!"

A loud voice rang out from within the smoke.

Those who were prepared and wearing masks raised their arms and shouted; at the same time, they pushed or pulled ordinary people to the front and charged at the Self-Defense Forces again.

? ?
"Stop! All of you, stop!"

The next second, the sergeant, who was trying to block the flow of people, suddenly tilted his head back, his face instantly 'blown open', and he fell backward.

Then they were overwhelmed by the surging crowd!

"Wonderful, wonderful."

The 'distinguished person' on the rooftop clapped his hands in admiration.
Such precise marksmanship could not possibly belong to some yakuza thug, but rather to a sniper hidden in a nearby building: it seems that many forces have already taken drastic action to make the island nation 'reveal' the truth, and are determined to escalate the situation.

"Kill someone, kill someone!"

"Run!!"

"Damn it, you're the Self-Defense Forces, why are you running?"

In an instant, the original march and demonstration turned into a chaotic battlefield.

“If the island nation really has a ‘superman,’ it should send him out in this situation to quickly suppress the situation.”

Ultimately, the essence of this protest is questioning the government's concealment of supernatural existence: there's no better way to calm the public than by directly demonstrating supernatural power. Of course, under normal circumstances, government forceful suppression would suffice.

"Unfortunately, the Self-Defense Forces are too incompetent, and this area..."

Looking around, one could see numerous agents and spies from other countries hidden both in the protest crowds and in the surrounding buildings.

Their mission was to escalate the situation, as this was the only way to break through the blockade imposed by the island nation and America.

As for the island nation's government continuing to play dead?

What does it matter? It's not like it was their people who died.

People usually talk about 'peace, democracy, and human rights,' but when a real war breaks out, these things are meaningless: the wars in Russia and Gaza have already proven that so-called civilized society is nothing more than a facade on the dinner table.

In order to get a share of the 'supernatural power',

Many countries have mobilized their own personnel, creating the current chaos.

"good,"

On the rooftop of Standard Chartered Bank, the woman in black waved.

"That saves me some trouble. Go on—"

The next second, black 'butterflies' flew out from her sleeves.

Soul Incarnation
One of the abilities of the Soul-Soul Fruit,

They create soul-created entities and are responsible for collecting souls and lifespans.

Whose money are we collecting from?

Of course, it's the unlucky guy in the conflict shown below.

Since we're all going to die anyway, let's contribute our meager strength to 'someone's' great cause.
