Inside the chairman's office, Shinguji Kurono was serving tea to the people from the alliance.
It was indeed Bai Zhe and Xi Jing Ningyin's guess that Nango Torajiro, the God of War, was one of the existing demons in the island nation.
An old man leaning on a cane, looking like he was on his deathbed.
Next to him, one seat away, sat a very quiet girl with short white hair. Apart from the initial greeting, she hadn't uttered a word since entering, looking like a delicate doll.
Just as Nango Torajiro picked up his teacup, the office door was violently pushed open from the outside.
As a demon who transcends fate, Nango Torajiro, whose control over his body has reached another level, is naturally not like an ordinary person and would be frightened by this commotion.
Instead, she looked at Xijing Ningyin standing at the door with a very kind expression, and said in a smiling tone like an elder: "You're almost thirty, and you only recently found a man. Ningyin, you should be more ladylike."
Of course, as he spoke, Nango Torajiro's gaze fell upon the black-haired man with burning golden eyes standing behind Nishikyo Nene.
However, upon hearing this, Nishikyo Ningyin strode in with Bai Zhe and said to Nango Torajiro in a very impolite manner, "Stop talking nonsense and tell us everything the Alliance sent you for."
Nango Torajiro, who was used to the arrogant remarks of the 250-year-old, was not angry. Instead, he smiled and said that he had come for a purpose.
"The alliance paid a high price to persuade me this time."
"As for the purpose, it is of course to come here to find out the truth... a mysterious entity that suddenly appeared in this world after fighting the world's strongest swordsman, causing the world's highest peak to collapse and leveling the western mountains of Edberg."
"Moving the Seven Star Sword Dance Festival forward is the Alliance's way of greeting you."
After all, the Seven Star Sword Dance Festival is a large-scale annual event. Postponing it is fine, but if it is brought forward... who knows how much manpower and resources it will consume.
Immediately afterwards, the expression on Nango Torajiro's face, one of the strongest in the island nation, turned serious, causing the girl sitting next to him, who looked like a doll, to show a surprised expression.
Of course, what shocked the white-haired girl the most were the two things that Nango Torajiro mentioned: the collapse of the world's highest peak and the flattening of the mountain range.
How much power would be needed to accomplish these two things?
This is something she, whose strength has only recently reached the B-rank knight level, cannot imagine!
As Bai Zhe sat down, Nango Torajiro said to him with great certainty, "You must be the mysterious person the alliance is talking about."
When questioned by Nango Torajiro, Hakutetsu readily admitted to what he had done.
“That’s right, I was the one who fought Edelweiss on the world’s highest peak, and I was the one who leveled the mountain range.”
"So, what is the Alliance's attitude towards me? Do they want to issue a warrant for my arrest?"
As he continued, Bai Zhe laughed at his own words.
From his last words, everyone present could see Bai Zhe's disdain for the alliance.
Before Nango Torajiro could speak, Nishikyo Nene displayed her protective instincts by directly questioning her master.
"Hey old man, what are you saying all this time? Are you here to question the Alliance?"
Upon hearing this, Torajiro Nango, still with a kind expression, said, "That's not the case. At your level, the only thing the alliance can do is to observe the changes."
"The Alliance invited me this time to act as an intermediary, hoping to establish a relationship with you and ideally invite you to join the Alliance."
"But from the first moment I saw you, I knew you were not one to be subservient to others."
"So I can only use my relationship as your disciple to try and build a connection with you."
To be honest, the only time he felt so tense and on high alert from the very first glance was when he participated in the God of War Cup held every four years across the sea.
But whether it was the contestants or the previous God of War who fought him to a draw, he had never felt this kind of soul-stirring feeling from any of them!
It was as if he was facing not a human being, but a ferocious beast that stood above all things and could destroy the world!
Upon hearing this, Xi Jing Ningyin immediately waved her hand and said, "Trying to build a relationship? You'd better leave quickly. The food at Po Jun Academy isn't to your taste, old man."
This time, the moment Nishikyo Nene finished speaking, Nango Torajiro finally expressed his opinion.
"It seems you've improved recently, Ning Yin. Would you like me to spar with you?"
But the smile on that old face made Xijing Ningyin feel as if she had seen a demon, and she immediately looked away and stopped talking.
At this moment, Bai Zhe also spoke up, drawing the other person's attention to himself.
"Cultivate friendships? Sure. I love making friends all the time."
"All you need to do is make the entire alliance submit to me."
Bai Zhe's words surprised everyone. Even Shinomiya Kuro and Nishikyo Nene, who knew the inside story, showed expressions of astonishment at this moment.
They had just devised a plan to establish an organization exclusively for Bai Zhe and were trying to recruit people, but they never expected that the other party would want to swallow the entire alliance whole.
Isn't he afraid of facing resistance from the alliance?
Oh, I almost forgot, with this guy's power, he's not afraid of the Alliance at all!
Thinking of this, the two of them immediately calmed down. However, if Bai Zhe really defeated the entire alliance, then they would have a job.
But Nango Torajiro, unaware of the truth, wore a troubled expression on his usually smiling old face.
"Well...you're putting me in a difficult position."
"Although I have some say in the league, I'm not at the point where I can control the entire league."
But in Bai Zhe's eyes, this predicament was a sign that the money was not enough.
He then glanced at Xijing Ningyin and said, "Ningyin, tell him about my origins and the changes in the world."
Upon hearing this, the black-haired, kimono-clad loli immediately blinked at Bai Zhe.
"no problem."
She then told Nango Torajiro about Bai Zhe's origins, his purpose in coming here, the great fusion of the world a year later, and the news that Bai Zhe would establish the Divine Lord Sheep in the future, which made the old man show an expression of sudden realization.
"I see. If you are from another world, then that makes sense."
No wonder the entire alliance couldn't find a single piece of information about the other side, no matter how much data they tried to access.
If the other party is not from this world, then everything makes sense!
Immediately, Torajiro Nango turned to Shiratsu and said with a serious expression, "Since you have told me such important news, I have felt your sincerity. I am willing to become your vanguard in this world."
"Therefore, I implore you to let me witness the power beyond that of a demon."
Upon hearing this, Bai Zhe nodded and then got up from the sofa.
"It just so happens that I'm also somewhat interested in your swordsmanship. Come with me."
Not long after, a massive earthquake struck the Kanto Plain, and in the blink of an eye, 30,000 acres of fertile land were buried underground!
As for the white-haired girl who came with Nango Torajiro, after she also learned about Hakutetsu's background and other matters, she was placed under the supervision of Nishikyo Nene and Shinguji Kurono.
Chapter Twenty-Four: Kurogane Tsushitsu! (Please subscribe, vote, and give flowers!)
When Nango Torajiro was demonstrating his swordsmanship to Hakutetsu on the Kanto Plain.
Inside the chairman's office, Nishikyo Ningyin began asking her youngest junior sister questions.
"Your name is Kurogane Shizuku, right? I am Nishikyo Ningyin, and I am also that old man's disciple. You can call me Ningyin-jie or Shijie."
However, upon hearing this, Kurogane Shizuku simply hummed in response and did not say another word, behaving just like her appearance—like a delicate porcelain doll!
It was Shinguji Kurono who spoke up.
"Don't ask. This child doesn't talk much when she's around strangers. Even your master never let her say more than five sentences at a time."
"How did you know?"
"Of course I learned it from your master, you idiot."
After mocking Nishikyo Nene, Shinguji Kurono sat down on the other side of Kurogane Shizuku before speaking again:
"This child is Kurogane Ikki's younger sister, but unfortunately, because both of her older brothers had conflicts with the family and left home, Kurogane Gen placed all his hopes on her. I think that's probably where her quiet personality comes from."
"However, before leaving, Black Iron Dragon Horse entrusted his youngest granddaughter to your teacher, and her situation improved a little."
These were all deduced from her conversation with Nango Torajiro before Nishikyo Nene arrived.
And the general situation of Kurogane Shizuku is also pretty much the same.
The girl's plight naturally evokes sympathy. Although she is a demon who transcends humanity, Nishikyo Ningyin is still human at heart and possesses compassion.
At the same time, they became even more disdainful of the strict way Black Iron disciplined his children.
"He's at odds with his two sons, yet he ends up putting all the burden on his daughter. What an unfit father!"
The eldest son has been missing since he left home. The second son is struggling at the bottom of Po Jun Academy because of his interference. The youngest daughter bears the heavy responsibility of the Black Iron family and has been strictly disciplined, which has led to her withdrawn personality.
Is this what a father should do?!
Hearing what Nishikyo Ningon said, Shinguji Kuro also felt sorry for the girl's plight.
"Although she has now become a disciple of the God of War, she will eventually graduate. Who will she rely on then?"
But her words reminded the black-haired, kimono-clad loli beside her, causing a sly glint to appear in her beautiful eyes.
"Perhaps, as her senior, I can help her find someone strong enough to rely on."
"You mean?"
Upon hearing this, Shinomiya Kuro immediately understood the implication of her unscrupulous best friend's words.
Who else in this world could meet her standards besides Bai Zhe?
But now the other party has actually arranged a match for her man, and the other party is her junior sister.
This immediately made Shinomiya Kurono's gaze towards Nishikyo Nene turn contemptuous.
This was the first time she had ever seen someone help their man find other women, even though conventional laws didn't apply to these powerful women.
But Shinguji Kurono still couldn't help but exclaim, "The world is full of wonders!"
Wait a minute!! What if this woman tries to drag her and Bai Zhe's fiancé down with her one day?
With these feelings in mind, Shinomiya Kurono's gaze toward Nishikyo Nene became even stranger.
Seeing the successive changes in Shinguji Kurono's expression, Nishikyo Nene asked curiously, "Is there a problem?"
"No, no problem."
After all, there is no one in this world bigger or more capable than Bai Zhe, who can give this little white bird, imprisoned by its family, a rare and precious freedom!
As the two finished their conversation, a strong tremor came from a distant place.
Although earthquakes are common in island nations, the fact that they occurred more than ten times in three minutes still caused panic among many people.
The relevant authorities traced the earthquake's location to a sparsely populated rural area in the Kanto Plain, and discovered through satellite imagery that the area had been reduced to a sea of fire!
Although the relevant authorities promptly reported the incident to the island nation's top leadership, it was ultimately suppressed by the alliance, which only informed the world that it was a series of earthquakes that occur only once every millennium.
Soon, the series of earthquakes ended, and Bai Zhe reappeared in the chairman's office carrying Nango Torajiro, throwing him directly onto the empty sofa.
Although Bai Zhe's actions were very rough, Nango Torajiro, who had witnessed a higher level of power, thanked Bai Zhe after sitting up.
"Thank you for allowing me to glimpse the realm beyond demons in this lifetime. I will keep my promise and convey your will to the Alliance."
At this moment, seeing this, Shinomiya Kurono also stood up very shrewdly, gave up her seat, and after Hakutetsu sat down, she placed a new cup of hot tea in front of him.
The chairman of Po Jun Academy was now acting as a servant, pouring tea and water. If others saw this, they would be astonished.
At the same time, looking at the somewhat disheveled Nango Torajiro, Nishikyo Ningyin immediately asked curiously, "Master, how many moves did you manage to withstand from Tetsu-kun?"
Upon hearing this, the God of War sighed and said, "Alas, new talents emerge in every generation. If it weren't for the fact that the master wanted to see my swordsmanship, I'm afraid I wouldn't have been able to last even five moves."
Hearing her master's answer, Nishikyo Ningyin realized that she was still somewhat inferior to him.
After all, she couldn't even last two moves against Bai Zhe back then!
However, Kurogane Shizuku, who was sitting next to her, showed a clear expression of astonishment on her delicate face, which had been completely expressionless.
Those green eyes involuntarily turned to the man who had brazenly sat down next to her, disregarding the difference between men and women.
If she also possessed the power to defeat the God of War, wouldn't she no longer need to obey her father and be able to live a more carefree life...?
But the next second, Kurogane Shizuku noticed Bai Zhe's gaze and quickly looked away while showing a rare apologetic expression.
His expression returned to its usual calm and indifferent state.
Although the girl thought her movements were open, discreet, and careful, everyone present was stronger than her, so how could her little tricks possibly fool others?
Immediately, the girl heard Nango Torajiro, who was sitting on the opposite sofa, say to her with a smile, "Shizuku, I see you are so interested in this academy, why don't you stay here and experience the teaching atmosphere of Hagun Academy?"
