In this crossover anime, I fight against the supernatural in my everyday world.

"Moreover, the fact that one can control two 'doors' at the same time, or command an evil spirit that has merged with a 'door,' proves that it itself must also be a being that has merged with a 'door.'"

"This is the conclusion I least want to see, but which is highly probable..."

"In this incident, there may only be one evil spirit that has merged with the 'door'."

"But...it incorporates more than three doors."

Upon hearing Rio Futaba's words, Mai Sakurajima and the others fell silent this time.

They no longer knew how to feel.

Isn't this jump a bit too big?

With the strength of the Xyz Society members, dealing with one or two evil spirits that have fused with "Gates" is not dangerous at all, even if there are some ordinary evil spirits in the area.

After all, everyone except Yui Yuigahama has become stronger.

But there are three evil spirits that have merged with one "door," and one evil spirit that has merged with at least three "doors"...

These are not equivalent at all!

Quantitative change can lead to qualitative change.

Moreover, this time, an important worker is missing.

The infamous empty-nest ghost of Kyoto, the Eight-Foot Elder.

"Can we...win?"

Faced with the concerns of Mai Sakurajima and the others, Yohoshi simply smiled and replied.

"As always, we will win. Of course, your definition of winning is a little different from mine."

Rio Futaba frowned slightly.

"How exactly did you win?"

"It's very simple."

Ye Xing stood up and walked to the window, looking at the overcast sky outside, his eyes revealing excitement and madness.

"As long as I catch it, the rest is self-evident."

"In this process, the deaths of hundreds, thousands, or tens of thousands are just part of the process."

"In the end, it was still my victory."

At this point, Ye Xing turned around and looked at the members of the Xyz Club in front of him.

"However, your definition of victory should be to minimize the number of innocent casualties while ensuring the elimination of evil spirits, right?"

Sakurajima Mai and the others remained silent, only nodding to express their opinions.

"In that case, the first thing to ensure is that ordinary people near Shibuya Shopping Street are evacuated to the greatest extent possible while we are taking action."

Rio Futaba nodded slightly, seemingly lost in thought.

"Should we issue an advance notice under the guise of 'Mask'?"

"That won't work."

Mai Sakurajima pursed her lips, as if recalling something, and gave a helpless, bitter smile.

"Generally speaking, people only gather in one place because of the appearance of celebrities. Even if an announcement is made in advance, and the tone and content are sincere, it will only attract more people to join in the fun, which is counterproductive."

Just when everyone was at a loss, Ye Xing spoke up with a smile.

"I've already thought about the plan for this."

Upon hearing this, and recalling what Yoru had said before her departure—that the main goal was to return the famous sword Mikazuki Munechika to its rightful owner at the Tokyo National Museum—Rio Futaba seemed to have guessed something.

"You wouldn't be thinking of..."

"Yes, that's exactly what you mean. As expected of the most important strategist of the Superpower Society, my beloved consort and I are truly of one mind."

Rio Futaba rolled her eyes and muttered a speechless comment.

"You keep calling me 'my beloved concubine' all the time. If you really think I'm working too hard, at least raise my rank in your words, right?"

“Hesitating, Consort Gui.”

"Hello? Shouldn't it be the Empress?"

"Wow, that's outrageous! You can't ask for that kind of price."

"Tch, I wouldn't take that job."

.......

After some lighthearted banter, the members relaxed somewhat.

Ye Xing looked out the window at the overcast sky and murmured.

"Looks like it's going to rain. Oh dear, what should we do? We have a club activity scheduled for this afternoon, and rain won't do."

Amano Hina looked speechless and stood up to walk to the window.

"Okay, okay, don't call me anymore."

Yohoshi smiled and patted Hina Amano on the shoulder.

"With such a general, one can feel truly at ease and reassured."

"What strange things are you saying? I don't understand."

Looking out the window at the overcast sky that seemed about to rain, Hina Amano silently closed her eyes, clasped her hands together, and whispered something.

"please."

With a strange tremor, as if in response, the sky dispersed instantly, revealing a clear sky.

"As expected of Hina~"

Mai Sakurajima smiled and said something, then stood up and walked outside.

"Let's eat first, and then start our activities this afternoon."

"OK~"

......

Once everyone had walked out of the room, Amano Hina turned around and glanced at herself to make sure no one was watching her before rolling up her sleeves.

Her wrists had developed a strange, translucent appearance, resembling the surface of a lake reflecting seven colors.

"This power..."

Amano Hina stared at her wrist, a complex look in her eyes, and murmured to herself.

"How much longer can it be used...?"

.......

That afternoon, it was sunny.

Outside a shrine in Tokyo.

Looking at the rows of ancient, vermilion gates before her, Kitagawa Kaimu's eyes flickered as she murmured to herself.

"So this is what they call a torii gate... This is the first time I've ever seen one in person."

"This place is very effective."

Yotsuya Miko checked the news online and exclaimed in surprise.

"It is said online that as long as couples hold hands and walk through the torii gate together into the shrine, they will never be separated for the rest of their lives."

"What a load of bull!"

Upon hearing this, Ye Xing looked up and retorted.

"Isn't this Byd the Earth God? He's also in charge of things like love?"

Yotsuya's face turned slightly red.

"Anyway, anyway... it's very effective!"

When she said those words, everyone except Yukino Yukinoshita, Kaimu Kitagawa, and Hina Amano, including Menma, turned their gazes toward Yohoshi.

Night Star sensed it.

The long-awaited battleground has begun.

If we hold hands and walk through the torii gate, will we never be apart for the rest of our lives?

Of course he didn't believe it.

but.

Whether he believes it or not is not important.

Judging from the expressions of Touma Kazusa, Sakurajima Mai, Futaba Rio, Yotsuya Miko, Yuigahama Yui, Kawasaki Saki, and Menma, it's obvious they believed it.

Wait a moment.

Is there a strange option mixed in here?

Forget it, it doesn't matter.

The important question is, what should we do now?

Option 1: Don't hold hands with anyone.

The saying goes well.

I'd rather do nothing than make a mistake.

No one is involved; it's fair and just.

However, judging from this, Rio Futaba and the others probably won't agree.

Option 2: Pull them one by one. You only need to make seven round trips (1, 2, 3...) to pull them all.

The issue is...

What about the order of priority?
