Crossover Anime: Starting with Bankai from Demon Slayer

Chapter 423 The Eighth Fairy Tale Dragon?

"I see." Asuka nodded, muttering to herself, "The so-called Saber Squad should be equivalent to the Eleventh Division of the East Coast Bureau."

"A bunch of guys who risk their lives and prove their existence through fighting..."

'

When Asuka thought of the Eleventh Division, she couldn't help but recall the man with bells tied in his hair and an aura of terrifying killing intent emanating from him.

I wonder if the leader of this saber squad is a battle maniac like Kenpachi...

"What did you say?" Nini asked, frowning, because she hadn't heard Fei Niao's whisper.

"It's nothing," Asuka shrugged, changing the subject. "Let's keep looking around. Do you have any slum neighborhoods around here?"

As the three continued deeper into Inner London.

The very center of the city.

At the very top of that magnificent building that soars into the clouds—the headquarters of the Administration Bureau.

A meeting at the cornerstone is underway.

The conference room is a huge circle, with a projection screen reflecting the light from a magic crystal suspended in the center.

Around the round table sat the highest-ranking officers of the various squads in London.

"Gentlemen, yesterday's report is here," a dark-skinned man with gold-rimmed glasses said coldly.

He is Roy B. Deepa, the commander of the Spellsong Team, who is responsible for monitoring and controlling unusual magical phenomena in London and also oversees the management and instruction of the Numbered Magic team.

Roy pushed a thick document onto the table, casually waved it a few times, and used magic to divide it into several pieces, which then floated down in front of the captains.

His expression was unusually serious; his already dark face looked even more gloomy today.

"Yesterday, several more unusual deaths were reported in London..."

'

"Based on the testing equipment we've set up in London, and the accounts of some witnesses... although it's somewhat unbelievable, it's certain that..."

"It was made by the Dark Dragon."

Before he could finish speaking, Bruno Banguneff, the captain of the magic array, frowned: "Is it still that vampire dragon's report, Captain Roy?"

Roy nodded, gesturing for everyone to look at the documents in their hands.

Sullivan, the cold-faced female captain of the Sabre Team, remained expressionless, while Ms. Milius of the Sacred Heart Team closed her eyes in pity.

Meanwhile, Wolfgang, the leader of the Triumph Team, crossed his arms, frowned, and said, "Continue."

"Just like the dark dragons we killed yesterday and the day before," Captain Roy adjusted his glasses. "These blood-sucking dragons were found in a state where they couldn't communicate... They didn't bleed during battle, and they didn't feel pain when they were injured."

He thoughtfully flicked his fingers, thinking of a description: "If I had to put it into words, it's a lot like the monster in those movies that Londoners like to watch, something like 'Dirty'..."

"Zombies!" Manager's Harry Shaq snapped his fingers, blowing on his chewing gum. "Is Captain Roy trying to say these guys are like zombies, mindless dark dragons?"

"Yes, that's somewhat the idea."

Roy, having personally encountered these dark dragons, naturally knew more than the others reviewing the documents: "Moreover, although these dragons differ in form—some are dragon beasts, some are dragon people—they all exhibit a high degree of commonality in their vampirism..."

Cannibalistic and brainless.

"It's hard for me not to think about this strange existence."

The old man in the flute ensemble, Captain Trombo, stroked his large beard thoughtfully: "Dark dragons are wild dragons that were transformed into evil dragons after coming into contact with the negative emotions of humans."

"The appearance of so many similar dark dragons suggests that a powerful negative force is constantly influencing any potential wild dragons?"

"But that's impossible!" Bruno interjected. "Including yesterday, this is already the fourth day."

"We and the Sabre Team sweep the streets of London every month, how could there be so many wild dragons and we didn't know about them?"

"unless...."

He suddenly thought of a possibility and shut his mouth, finding it somewhat unbelievable.

Wolfgang's sunglasses gleamed as he picked up where Bruno left off: "Unless, these bloodsucking dark dragons have always been the same one..."

'

"What we've eliminated may only be its clones, while its true form continues to cause new trouble from places we can't see!"

The group carefully reviewed the report several more times, analyzing the possibilities Wolfgang had mentioned.

Finally, it was the development team leader, Sakarian, who responded quietly: "Dark Dragons... in the end, are just special alien creatures; they can't keep dying and coming back to life indefinitely..."

"6

"If that's the case, then this dark dragon... is very likely the eighth [Fairy Tale Dragon] that we don't know about."

Fairy Tale Dragon!

The meeting room fell silent instantly.

In ancient legends, during the chaotic era before the separation of inner and outer London.

Before the concepts of black dragons and white dragons existed, 72% of abnormal deaths in London each year were attributed to the existence of these strange dragons.

There were seven legendary progenitors who once ruled over all the dragons.

They are the oldest, most dangerous, and most powerful beings, comparable to natural disasters.

Cinderella, Little Red Riding Hood, Snow White.

The Golden Axe, the Candy House, and the Little Mermaid.

And the Animals Orchestra of Bremen.

Countless powerful mages and witches perished under the power of these seven proto-dragons, and it took all their strength to either destroy, seal, or banish them.

Even if these proto-dragons are killed, they do not truly die and will reappear every hundred years.

If it is not detected and controlled in its juvenile stage, it will cause unimaginable trouble.

But now, this dragon is wreaking havoc in London...

Could it really be the legendary fairy tale dragon?

Roy took off his gold-rimmed glasses and rubbed his eyes in annoyance: "Anyway... the Spell Song Team will continue to follow up. Hopefully, it's just some big guy with special abilities, and not this."

He turned his head to look at Sullivan, the captain of the Sabre Team: "Squirrel, I'll have to trouble you again."

"No." Sullivan Squirrel nodded, his fingers tapping lightly on the table. "Eliminating the Dark Dragon is the Sabre Squad's job."

This incident made the atmosphere at the team meeting somewhat heavy, since no one wanted to see the appearance of the fairy tale dragon.

"Ugh, this is so suffocating..." Manager and Captain Harry loosened his tie, trying to catch his breath.

He looked at Trompo: "Speaking of which, Captain Trompo, I heard that the advisor from the Eastern Bureau came yesterday. Is everything going smoothly?"

""

East Coast Bureau...

Thinking about this, Bruno, who was already annoyed by the vampire dragon incident, looked at Trombo with dissatisfaction.

He is one of the militant factions within the inner circle and dislikes the fact that his bureau is called the West End Bureau.

In his view, this place has been built up by the locals since ancient times, what does it have to do with your Spirit Court?

Where were you when the fairytale dragon attacked? Where were you when London, both inside and out, split apart, and the world collapsed?

In his view, the idea that things share a common origin was just an excuse for those Easterners to interfere.

"Oh, you mean Aska kid?" Trompo stroked his beard, letting out a sigh of relief from the earlier tension.

"He... we're kind of acquaintances, and if there's a chance, I'll introduce you to him."
