After a deafening roar, a sound only audible to those with spiritual abilities, the pale golden spiritual energy that had been floating in the air surged like a tidal wave and converged into Mikazuki Munechika's scabbard.

"Ding!"

With the clang of metal on metal, Yotsuya Miko drew Mikazuki Munechika from his scabbard.

The once dull and lifeless iron blade emitted a joyful cry, as if breaking free from its restraints.

A pale golden light emanated from Yotsuya Miko's golden eyes.

The iron blade gradually changed, transforming from its original iron color to a pale gold color that reflected light, similar to the eyes of Yotsuya Miko, within just a few seconds.

"This is my... Mikazuki Munechika."

Listening to Miko Yotsuya's soft murmurs, Rio Futaba pursed her lips, looking as if she wanted to say something but hesitated.

One glance at Ding Zhen, and the identification is complete.

Yotsuya Miko was infected by Yohoshi.

What a fine line, "My Mikazuki Munechika."

How could someone utter such absurd words with such a matter-of-fact tone?

However, judging from the change in color of Mikazuki Munechika's sword, it's the same as that of Onimaru Kunitsuna back then.

Spiritual objects should belong to those with spiritual abilities.

It is itself a blade meant to slay evil spirits.

Only in the hands of members of the Superpower Society can Onimaru Kunitsuna and Mikazuki Munechika realize their true value.

Just then, officers from the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department, armed with guns, rushed in through the entrance.

"Don't move!"

Nearly a hundred dark gun barrels were pointed at Ye Xing and his group who were standing there.

"That's... 'Mask'?"

Upon seeing Yoruichi standing there, dressed in a black coat and wearing a pure black mask, the members of the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department froze for a moment, then revealed a look of vigilance as if facing a formidable enemy.

The name "Masked" is well-known not only in Kyoto, but throughout the entire Sakura Province.

The live broadcast of that television program was widely disseminated, causing a sensation in Sakura Province and even making headlines in newspapers.

A hero who brings down a serial killer? Or a criminal who acts with impunity?

The Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department's on-site commander, upon seeing the notorious criminal "Masked" appear there, gritted his teeth, his heart heavy.

How did they end up here?

Wait a moment.

If he remembered correctly, a few months ago, the Kyoto City Museum was also invaded by unidentified people when it was exhibiting the famous sword Onimaru Kunitsuna.

Could it be that the so-called unidentified person at the time was referring to "Masked"?

Why did the Kyoto Metropolitan Police Department, knowing that the Tokyo National Museum's exhibition of the famous sword Mikazuki Munechika was highly likely to make it a target of "Masked" (a slang term for a thief) completely fail to warn them beforehand?

No wonder the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department's on-site commander didn't understand.

After numerous incidents, in the eyes of the citizens, Soichiro Yagami, the head of the Criminal Investigation Bureau who repeatedly turned the tide and held real power within the Metropolitan Police Department, was one of the "Masked's" accomplices.

Did the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department receive an advance notice warning that "Masked" is targeting the famous sword Mikazuki Munechika?

What a joke.

It's already considered good that Soichiro Yagami didn't use his position to pass on confidential information such as the police force situation and shift schedule at the Tokyo National Museum to "Masked".

Did they even warn the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department in advance?

Give me a break.

"Oh, please don't do that."

Facing the guns of the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department officers, Yohoshi simply chuckled and raised his hands.

Then, he suddenly did something that surprised everyone present, including the members of the Superpower Society.

Yoru pointed to Yagami Light, who was standing there wearing a crimson tengu mask, and said softly with a smile.

"Since you don't know, I'll just mention it to you."

"He is 'Kira'."

184 The Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department's all-out manhunt: The Demon Hotel where Hiratsuka Shizuka is staying.

"'Kira'!?"

Upon hearing the name, the ordinary police officers didn't react much, but the on-site commander of the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department's expression changed drastically.

Because of the fear of causing public panic and bearing the pressure of public opinion, the investigations into the series of deaths of criminals during this period were all conducted in secret.

The name "Kira" is the most important part of the investigation.

For this reason, the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department even invited the world's number one detective.

But he never expected to meet Kira himself here.

Light Yagami, the person involved, was taken aback when Yosei revealed her true identity.

Then, when he noticed the other person's smiling gaze, he realized what was happening and turned his gaze back to the Metropolitan Police Department officers. His scarlet eyes revealed a hint of excitement and madness.

“That’s right, I am Kira!”

"Release your resentment, Emperor Sutoku!"

At the moment Light Yagami uttered the true name of the soul, because it was raining and the sky was dark, the Metropolitan Police Department members holding flashlights saw a huge, terrifying phantom reflected on the wall.

"call..."

A chilling sigh, utterly inhuman, echoed through the Tokyo National Museum.

As the Metropolitan Police Department members suppressed their fear and looked ahead again, they discovered that "Masked" and "Kira" had vanished without a trace.

Only the voice of Light Yagami, filled with murderous intent, echoed in their ears, hidden in the darkness and rain.

"Today, all of you will die here."

Upon hearing this, the on-site commander's expression changed. Without thinking twice, he immediately took out the Metropolitan Police Department's special communication radio, pressed the button, and shouted.

"The National Museum has been hacked! An unidentified person resembling 'Kira' has appeared. Please deploy all available reinforcements immediately!"

"I'll repeat myself, Kira has appeared!"

.......

Meanwhile, in an internal conference room at the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department.

Wearing a white long-sleeved shirt and squatting on the seat, L straightened up when he heard the communication coming from the Metropolitan Police Department's dedicated channel.

"'Kira'...has appeared in person?"

The high-ranking officers of the Metropolitan Police Department behind him also heard the message coming from the channel and looked hesitant.

"What... should we do?"

L turned his head to look at the other person, took out a piece of chocolate from his pocket and took a small bite, saying calmly.

"What else can we do? Just watch the people die? Send reinforcements!"

"Even if I die, I will gather some information about 'Kira's' abilities before I die."

"That's what makes it valuable."

Upon hearing these words, the high-ranking official from the Metropolitan Police Department changed his expression, gritted his teeth, and nodded heavily.

"okay, I get it."

After spending this time together, he finally realized it.

This famous detective, who looks like a typical nerdy guy, is anything but normal.

He's simply a madman with bizarre ways of doing things.

but...

Perhaps only a madman could deal with Kira, a serial killer who appears and disappears unpredictably and leaves the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department completely baffled.

After the Metropolitan Police Department executives left the room, L's assistant, the elderly man in a coat and hat, walked up to him and said calmly.

“If you use that kind of rhetoric, the people in the Metropolitan Police Department will probably have something to say about it.”

"I don't have time to worry about these things."

L squatted on the chair, looking at the name "Kira" smeared in blood on the big screen, and spoke softly.

"If you worry about the safety of every single piece while playing chess, you can't win."

Meanwhile, inside the National Museum, hidden in the darkness, Light Yagami seemed to sense something, raised his head to look at the dark clouds in the sky, and murmured to himself.

"L, what choice will you make? Don't disappoint me."

Emperor Sutoku, the true form of Light Yagami's soul, moved back and forth like a ghost, shrouded in darkness and rain.

The members of the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department held their guns, but dared not pull the triggers.

Such an environment is extremely unfavorable.

Not to mention that firing rashly could very well hit a comrade.

There are so many cultural relics around, and it's true that the display cases are made of bulletproof glass, but if there is any damage, who can bear the responsibility?

Seeing the Metropolitan Police Department officers who were completely at a loss and had no idea how to deal with Emperor Sutoku, Light Yagami's figure blended into the darkness, leaving only his scarlet eyes shining brightly.

"Next, it's 'Masked's' turn to perform."

.......

On the other side, the members of Pale Demon Hand, riding on Xyzance's exclusive mounts, reacted in different ways.

Yotsuya Miko was captivated, stroking her Mikazuki Munechika with obvious affection, and the renowned sword, now a pale gold, responded to her touch with the clanging sound of metal striking metal.

For some reason, seeing this scene, a very strange thought popped into the minds of Mai Sakurajima and Rio Futaba.
