Tokyo Ghoul: Starting with the Twin Kamui

Uchiha Byakuya also felt it was time to reveal some things to Yoshimura Eto. "Actually, Arima Kishou and I are both half-humans born from the White Day Garden. We grew up in the 'birdcage' of the Washuu Clan and could only serve the Washuu Clan for our entire lives."

"As expected... you are all half-humans."

Yoshimura Eto wasn't surprised; it was in line with her guess.

She couldn't help but ask, "So you must be in that organization now, right?"

“That’s right, just like your father did back then, I became one of the cleaners of ‘V’.”

Uchiha Byakuya said without any concealment.

When her father was mentioned, Yoshimura Aite fell silent for a moment.

Hearing that Uchiha Byakuya was the current "Cleaner" of the "V" organization filled her with emotion.

"So, as the 'Cleaner,' are you sure you want to join forces with me, the leader of an opposing organization?"

Even now, Yoshimura Ete still finds it somewhat unbelievable.

After all, she knew that the "V" organization's cleaners were well-paid. They only needed to follow orders to "clean up" threatening targets, and they would never lack anything in terms of living conditions.

In Yoshimura Eto's eyes, killing was already a trivial matter, so she overlooked this most important point.

"Of course, you want to change the world, just like me and you, General."

Uchiha Byakuya said.

"I see. Now I understand why you were so concerned about that ghoul girl. So how is she now? By the way, what was her name again? I'd like to visit her sometime."

Yoshimura Eto suddenly became interested again when he thought of that ghoul girl.

"That ghoul girl's name is Minami Reika. She's attending Seikiyo High School. She's currently receiving help from the Anteiku (Local Government). As long as she doesn't hurt anyone again, she can live a normal life, which is where your father is..."

Uchiha Byakuya replied.

"That Gong Shan guy only knows how to survive and play the good old man."

Yoshimura Aite pouted slightly.

She never agreed with her father's views.

What's the point of opening a coffee shop in a place like that?

No matter how kind a person is, they can only help a small portion of ghouls.

If this world is not changed, there will always be ghouls born with evil who suffer tragic pain.

"..."

Uchiha Byakuya knew that it was not appropriate for him to speak casually at this moment.

Although he deeply respected Yoshimura Kozen and believed the store manager to be kind-hearted.

However, it cannot be denied that Yoshimura killed many humans and ghouls before and after joining the V organization as a "cleaner," and also killed Yuna, Yoshimura Eto's mother, under pressure from the V organization.

Yuna's situation, in particular, is a knot in Yoshimura Eto's heart that is difficult to untie.

Knowing he was burdened with sins, the shop manager was determined to die in the final "antiquities crusade."

Uchiha Byakuya was merely an observer, while Yoshimura Eto was the true victim, so he felt he had no right to directly persuade Yoshimura Eto to forgive her father.

Even if you want to complete the system task, you shouldn't do this, as it will most likely have the opposite effect.

“I know a little about your father, and in that situation, he really was powerless.”

Uchiha Byakuya said it rather tactfully.

“I know, of course I know he can’t do anything, after all, every member of the ‘V’ organization is very strong.”

Yoshimura Eto lowered her head slightly. "He killed my mother, which is indeed hard for me to accept, but do you know that my mother's initial purpose in contacting Gongshan was only to investigate the mysterious 'V' organization? In other words, I was just a superfluous accessory in that process..."

This is what makes her feel the saddest.

Feeling she had said too much, Yoshimura Aite quickly changed the subject, "In short, I don't want to end up like Gongshan. I want to do everything in my power, even if it means dying without regrets."

“I can understand how you feel, but Ms. Yuna forced herself to eat human flesh for your sake, and Manager Yoshimura attacked the CCG for your sake this time, these are all true.”

Uchiha Byakuya said.

Upon hearing this, Yoshimura Eto fell into a brief silence. "...I know, so after my first book is published, I want to go to 'Antei Ward' to meet him."

coming!

Uchiha Byakuya immediately realized that this was a crucial juncture.

In the original story, Yoshimura Eto took her first work, "To Kafka," to the "Antei Ward" to find Yoshimura Kōzen. She found Yoshimura Kōzen chatting and laughing with the shop assistants, Furuma En'er and Irimi Kaname. This scene caused Yoshimura Eto, who had experienced a very tragic childhood, to have a sudden outburst of negative emotions.

She couldn't accept that he had thrown her into a place like District 24, yet he himself was living a happy and carefree life there.

He then crumpled up the copy of "To Kafka" in his hand, threw it on the ground, and left, ultimately failing to meet Yoshimura Kozen.

It wasn't until the coffee shop in Anding District closed that Yoshimura Kōzen came to clean up the trash in front of the shop and found the crumpled book on the ground. He realized that Aite had come to find him, but it was too late.

At this point, the relationship between Yoshimura Eto and Yoshimura Kozen further deteriorated.

Yoshimura Kōzen was probably too ashamed to take the initiative to find Eto, and Eto hated Kōzen so much that they never met again.

Over time, Yoshimura Eto's last glimmer of hope for her father was shattered, and the whole world seemed hopeless to her.

Therefore, in the original story, she could not reconcile with her father, nor would there be any point in reconciliation. Everything she did was to change the world, and reconciliation with her father was unrelated to this.

"Okay, I'll go with you then."

Uchiha Byakuya will not allow that kind of thing to happen again.

At the very least, we must ensure that Gong Shan and Aite and his daughter can meet.

Chapter 56 A Nickname with Reason and Evidence

"You want to come with me?"

Fangcun At was a little surprised.

What's this guy going to do?

"Yes, actually I really respect Yoshimura-senpai. I wanted to go and offer my condolences after I hurt him last time."

Uchiha Byakuya offered an explanation.

Yoshimura Kōzen was the former "cleaner," so it's perfectly reasonable for him to call him his senior.

Although his main goal was to facilitate a successful meeting between Yoshimura Kozen and Yoshimura Eto, he also wanted to take the opportunity to visit Yoshimura Kozen.

"But my book won't be published and released that soon, will it?"

Yoshimura Et asked.

She didn't know much about this, only that the whole process seemed to take quite a long time.

"It won't be that fast, it will take at least two or three months."

Uchiha Byakuya said, "But I don't think we have to wait until the work is published before we go to Yoshimura-senpai."

"That's what I say, but I don't want to see him until I can support myself."

Fangcun Eite shook his head slightly.

"Okay, then let's keep working hard to revise the manuscript and produce the most satisfactory final version before going through all those publishing processes."

Uchiha Byakuya naturally respected Yoshimura Eto's opinion, so he didn't interfere too much.

"But before that, there is one more thing."

Just then, Yoshimura Eto suddenly said in a serious tone, "We, 'Aogiri Tree,' need a 'One-Eyed King.' Originally, I planned to take this position myself, but my strength is not as good as yours or that blue-haired guy's."

“Since you are the new ‘Cleaner,’ you should be stronger than that blue-haired guy. I hope you can sit on the throne of the ‘One-Eyed King.’”

“But you are half-human, and your lifespan is too limited, so I think we need to prepare the throne for the next ‘One-Eyed King’.”

She is currently the only natural half-ghoul, but she does not possess the absolute strength that the "One-Eyed King" should have.

Uchiha Byakuya was the strongest half-human she had ever encountered, but her lifespan was far too short, making it difficult for her to change the entire world with such a short lifespan.

Therefore, she believes that she should place her hopes on the next "One-Eyed King".

"The next One-Eyed King... I don't think that's necessary."

Uchiha Byakuya said calmly, "As long as we can join hands to change this world, we won't have to wait for the birth of the next One-Eyed King."

He knew very well that it would be more than a decade before the next One-Eyed King, Kaneki Ken, would take over the throne, but he certainly didn't have the patience to wait that long.

With his ultimate trump card, "Dual Divine Might," changing the entire world wouldn't be difficult, or rather, it would be effortless; he wouldn't need more than a decade.

"Are you so confident? He's just a jerk who's obsessed with lolicon."

Uchiha Byakuya's confident reply surprised Yoshimura Eto.

Although she still had some doubts about whether she, this bastard lolicon, and that blue-haired guy could change the world before their half-human lifespan was over.

But she inexplicably trusted this bastard lolicon, probably because he was so mysterious.

She even suspected that this guy hadn't shown his true strength yet.

Let's just believe this bastard lolicon for now!

"Your 'Bronze Tree' should have moved to the next base by now, right?"
