Crossover anime/manga, can you be my immortal companion for life?

The security personnel exchanged glances, then looked at Kerry with a hint of awe.

Or the principal could find someone else.

Honestly, even they would have been the first to run away when they saw that thing. These two actually dared to chase after it and attack it.

"Okay, we'll set up a cordon and cordon off this area right away."

After responding to Kerry, the man pressed his earpiece and said something, seemingly explaining the current situation to Senzaemon Nakiri, who had been woken up in the middle of the night. Then he began to bow and scrape to the air.

The last person looked at Kerry again.

"Gentlemen, the commander-in-chief's intention is for us to guard this place while he questions those people from the Hesheng Society. He would like to ask you two advisors to come along."

Kerry and Kazuma exchanged a glance. They actually wanted to stay here, but the lake was quite large, and the creature seemed to be afraid of people. With just the two of them, it chose to run rather than turn back and fight.

However, it's essential to gather intelligence, since monsters are like cockroaches—if you see one, there might be a whole swarm hiding there.

So he nodded in agreement.

Soon a black sedan arrived and the driver took the two to a building.

It wasn't the reception room the two had seen, but rather a reception room in a building that seemed to be used for commercial purposes.

The room was filled with men in classic black suits, while on the two sofas opposite, a row of people Kerry had seen in the dorm, along with a few others he hadn't met before, were sitting.

Kerry speculated that those people might be the guys who were upstairs but hadn't come down yet.

At this moment, although the group of students and dormitory supervisors were not tied up with ropes, they all looked nervous and trembled.

When Senzaemon Nakiri saw the two people who were travel-worn and whose clothes were still covered with grass clippings and dust, he immediately changed his serious face to a smile and invited them to sit down without any disgust.

So Kerry and He Zhen sat down to the left of the old man, looking at the people opposite them.

Upon seeing Kerry and his companion, the students trembled even more violently, their faces turning as pale as paper.

Although they said they would work together, Senzaemon Nakiri wouldn't really leave all the trouble on his own turf to Kerry and the other person, so he went straight back to asking the same question.

"Did you know about that thing, or was it something you brought in?"

Senzaemon Nakiri's questioning was not accompanied by any particularly strong emotional fluctuations, but it was enough to make those people feel suffocated.

After all, it's a high-pressure environment, coupled with the education received from a family of chefs since childhood, and the somewhat transcendent status of those top chefs in the world. The other party is not only the principal, but also a legendary chef whom they've heard about since childhood, and the leader of the Japanese culinary world. Such immense pressure is something that only a chef can truly understand.

For example, Kerry and Zhen didn't think much of it and didn't know why a single sentence was enough to scare them like that.

"I...we don't know..."

The person inside seemed certain that the worst that could happen to them was being fired, and they gritted their teeth and spoke up.

"I remember your family makes Shingen mochi, don't you?"

As a result, Senzaemon Nakiri's next sentence completely shut the man up.

He was afraid that if he said he didn't know again, his hometown would call and tell him that no suppliers in Japan were working with them anymore, and that their various chain stores would suffer retaliation. In the end, he trembled and spoke.

"We...we just don't want to be expelled, it's all...it's all thanks to the Ninth Seat's guarantee..."

Chapter Fifty-Eight: I've had enough of all this red tape.

Senzaemon Nakiri frowned.

He immediately summoned the people around him.

"Convene an emergency council meeting of the Elite Ten of Totsuki Academy. They must be present within half an hour!"

"Yes."

Those around him immediately bowed and stepped aside.

Senzaemon Nakiri continued to look at the person who had already shared part of the information.

"What exactly happened? And do you know about those two students who went missing before?"

Upon hearing that a student was missing, the man became visibly more flustered, his eyes darting away nervously.

"I...we really didn't know...we all listened to Senior Ruishan's advice...we..."

The other person seemed to be experiencing some kind of fear. Although they were already terrified before, it seemed that another kind of fear had overwhelmed their fear of Nakiri Senzaemon, and they actually shut their mouths again.

In this situation, a person who is extremely nervous is very likely to change their mind, which largely indicates that they did not say what they considered most important, but only what they did not care about so much.

Kerry felt the scene before him was far too drawn out and wanted to stand up and interrogate him directly.

But at that moment, the bodyguard who had gone down earlier hurriedly returned, his expression somewhat strange.

He leaned close to Senzaemon Nakiri's ear and spoke, trying his best to keep his voice down, but Kerry was right next to him and still heard what he said.

"Um, Commander-in-Chief, the Elite Ten Council demands that you immediately cease the unauthorized imprisonment of the students and that you attend the Elite Ten Council meeting immediately."

"Ok?"

Senzaemon Nakiri glared, his brows furrowing as if he were somewhat annoyed, but he forcibly suppressed his anger.

"Which members requested this?"

"It is...it is the first seat, Tsukasa Eishi, the second seat, Kobayashi Rindou, the third seat, Akane Kubo Momo, the fifth seat, Saito Soumei, the sixth seat, Kinokuni Nene, and the ninth seat, Eizan Etsuya, who together constitute more than half of the people who jointly made the request."

Upon hearing these names, Senzaemon Nakiri's expression shifted between light and dark.

He knew there were definitely problems at the school, and among the Ten Outstanding Individuals, but he never expected that more than half of them would be chosen so easily, and that they would suddenly launch an attack at this time.

At the beginning of the school's establishment, in order to embody the concept of students and teachers co-governing the school, Senzaemon Nakiri entrusted a large part of the school's operational functions to the Elite Ten Council, and also granted the Elite Ten Council the same management authority as the Commander-in-Chief in terms of school management.

He probably never imagined that the boomerang would hit him on the head.

The bodyguard gave Senzaemon a strange look.

"Commander-in-Chief, if you feel it's inconvenient to break your own rules, I will have them brought under control immediately."

"No need, this is my problem. I have considered myself an educator for many years and even served as a principal. Now that there is a problem, of course it must be handled according to the rules."

Then Senzaemon looked at Kuri and Kazuma beside him, his face showing some apology.

"I am very sorry to have made you two laugh. Please have a seat. I will definitely come back to apologize to you two young men later."

As he spoke, Senzaemon Nakiri stood up, glanced at the students sitting over there, and left.

Kazuma also heard those words, and looked at Senzaemon Nakiri's back with some confusion, and then at Kerry.

"What do you mean?"

"What else could it mean? He, the principal, is being pressured by a group of students he has nurtured. He's too ashamed to break the rules he set and go talk to those people properly."

Kerry remembered that there really was such a thing in Food Wars! When Senzaemon Nakiri, that good son-in-law, returned to Japan, in order to reform the culinary world that had hurt his beloved senior, Saiba, he did something ruthless. He mobilized a few students to replace the principal with himself, and then gathered a bunch of biased judges to mess with the main characters at the school until they were completely out of their minds.

"No? This isn't Hogwarts, is it? The Board of Governors impeached Dumbledore and replaced him with Umbridge, right?"

Moreover, the school board consists of prominent figures, while this is just a bunch of students. How can they possibly order the principal around?

Kazuma was clearly incomprehensible. He couldn't even understand how those students dared to do that, let alone why Senzaemon Nakiri would actually go and play house with them.

If Kazuma were to come, and they pull this stunt, Kazuma would immediately have them detained and expelled from school. He would also retaliate severely against their related family businesses, letting everyone know that this is what happens to anyone who dares to defy him, Kazuma!

Kerry thought the analogy was very apt, and it really was like the school board removing Dumbledore.

To be honest, while watching the anime, he thought that the old man was probably just leaving a test for his granddaughter and that's why he didn't care. But now that human lives and monsters have appeared, he still doesn't care. Kerry felt that things were a bit hard to predict.

After Senzaemon Nakiri left, the people on the opposite sofa visibly breathed a sigh of relief.

Although they didn't hear what happened or what was said about letting them go, the fact that Senzaemon Nakiri left in such a hurry gave them a feeling that he was a grown man taking off his clothes.

At this moment, Kerry stood up, and Zhenxin, who understood Kerry's meaning, also stood up.

The men in black suits who remained there immediately stepped forward respectfully as soon as they saw Kerry make a move.

"Counselors, do you have any requests? If you need a shower and a meal, we will arrange it for you immediately."

Kerry waved his hand.

"No need. I've had enough of all this red tape."

Then Kerry put down his backpack and unzipped it.

Everyone was puzzled. Was the consultant planning to pull out a guitar at this moment? Even if it was an impromptu performance, it still seemed a bit...

Then everyone saw Kerry take a chainsaw out of it.

"This……"

The man in the suit looked at Kerry, who had suddenly pulled out a weapon, with some fear, and cautiously reached for his waist.

"Advisors, what...what do you want to do?"

"Nothing much, I just want to ask those people over there some questions."

With that, Kerry picked up the chainsaw and walked toward the group of people.

"Wait! Even if it is, it doesn't mean so without the Commander-in-Chief's order."

Kazuma frowned, but still sided with Kerry and took out his pistol.

"You can tell your commander-in-chief that we suddenly attacked, and you just couldn't stop us."

"you!"

The people on the sofa stared wide-eyed in bewilderment as Kerry approached with a chainsaw.

The next moment, Kerry kicked the side of the sofa, and the people immediately lost their balance and slid off.

Then Kerry stepped on the person who had initially mentioned Eizan Etsuya.

"What are you going to do?!"

The other party was very excited, but because the chainsaw was so close and started spinning with Kerry's pull, he could only lie on the ground and shake his head.

"You have two choices now: tell me what you know, or start feeling how I'm cutting you apart piece by piece."

The students who were pinned to the ground were terrified.
