Crossover Anime: How a Shameless Person Lives

In Osaka, Fujiwara Daichi and Keiji ran anxiously through the streets.

The refugees didn't even glance at the surrounding ruins, as if to them these were just trivial matters not worth noticing.

Qi Er turned around, looking at his old partner who was gradually falling behind him, and urged, "Faster! Faster!"

"Stop rushing me! Can't you be a little more understanding of an old man like me?"

"You're younger than me, right? I've told you before that you should exercise more. Now you know the benefits of exercise, right?"

"Bullshit, I've never seen you exercise!"

Fujiwara Daichi was panting heavily as he rested his hands on his knees.

Cars aren't allowed in Osaka now, so it's really difficult for those two old men to run in.

"Hurry up, stop making excuses."

"..."

Fujiwara Daichi sighed, but still followed.

The two continued walking briskly in the direction shown on the phone's map.

Running was impossible; he simply couldn't take it anymore.

After passing through several collapsed streets and around a group of refugees clearing rubble, they finally met Mercury.

And then there's Tomie next to him.

Without prior arrangement, they glanced at each other and quickly looked away.

"Hey, isn't this the top dog of Japan?" Mercury greeted with a smile, then turned his gaze to Keiji. "And who are you?"

"Finance Minister Keiji and Edogawa Ranpo are old friends."

He added this last sentence, and it seemed that the gazes from the other side became much more friendly.

Tomie, who was watching the live broadcast, looked up at him.

"The old man's friend?"

"That's right, Ranpo mentioned me to you guys, didn't he?" Keiji's tone was full of confidence.

He's been through thick and thin with Ranpo countless times before, so he can't possibly never mention him in front of the kids.

Mercury and Tomie exchanged a glance and shook their heads simultaneously.

"Never heard of it."

The sound of shattering bricks echoed from the open ground. Qi Er stared wide-eyed, remaining motionless in one position.

My mind is filled with that phrase, "I've never heard of it."

"impossible!"

"Enough! I don't have time to play riddles with you, old man. Just tell me, what do you want?"

Mercury adopted a posture of listening attentively.

Since she's the old man's friend, she has some face with him.

Rei II stood up straight and looked directly at the god of the mortal world before him.

It wasn't nearly as intimidating as it was in the video; in fact, when we were face-to-face, he felt like a brat.

Tomie glanced at it and lost interest, focusing intently on observing the Great Adventure Under the Snow.

Fujiwara Daichi, who was standing nearby, tugged at Keiji's clothes, indicating that he should hand them over to him.

After all, he knew all too well how outspoken Qi Er was.

He didn't want to be dragged down with him if he said anything unpleasant.

"Mr. Mercury."

Fujiwara Daichi bowed slightly, his attitude much more respectful than Keiji's.

"We're here to talk about the arms dealer Coco and Maxwell."

"Oh?" Mercury raised an eyebrow. "Go on."

These two guys are amazing.

One is obsessed with world peace, the other is a fanatical believer with a rebellious streak.

These are definitely two people in a private room at a mental hospital.

Fujiwara nodded vigorously and continued, "They are now bombarding the world, colluding with conglomerates, proselytizing, and under the guise of holy war, attacking the monsters in the blockaded areas, causing serious casualties."

At this point, Fujiwara Daichi paused, his tone conciliatory: "These two are now under your jurisdiction, belonging to the Beast Group. Do you think you can get them to stop these actions? After all, Japan is in chaos, and you're worried about that too, aren't you?"

Besides, they are ultimately outsiders. If you want something, just let them know. Why bother with the Vatican's empty promises?

His words were full of sob stories and weighing the pros and cons, subtly praising Mercury once again.

Although he knew he was not being sincere, Mercury was still pleased.

These two have really gone too far, acting recklessly in his name.

Isn't this just smearing his reputation?

Furthermore, even though they used his name, he didn't see a single penny of kickback.

That's incredibly inconsiderate.

"Did you hear that, Aite? Bring those two energetic guys back. And send Maxwell back to the Vatican. He's an eyesore."

"Aite?"

Just as Keiji and Fujiwara Daichi were wondering what was going on, the dark building in front of them began to move.

"Boom!"

The ground began to shake, and gravel fell from the buildings.

Keiji and Fujiwara Daichi looked up, their pupils suddenly contracting.

The dark building actually stood up.

No, not standing up.

It is part of some giant object.

Just as the two were engrossed in watching, a huge single eye opened on the top of the building, staring intently at the crowd below.

"This is... a city-destroying ghoul, the One-Eyed Owl!"

Qi Er's voice was solemn.

Although he had long anticipated that the One-Eyed Owl, who could surround half the city, was powerful, he had not expected the sense of oppression to be so strong.

Facing her head-on is not much different from facing a natural disaster!

Fujiwara Daichi was in even worse shape; his face was deathly pale, and cold sweat beaded on his forehead.

"Hehehe, even an arrogant big shot would make such an expression."

Fujiwara Daichi remained silent, completely ignoring her sarcasm.

Eto Yoshimura, formerly an SSS-class ghoul and leader of Aogiri Tree, greatly increased his strength after joining Mercury's Beast Group. A few months ago, footage captured by spies caused the Beast Group's base, along with several mountains, to be completely destroyed.

He is undoubtedly the number two strongest member of the Beast Group.

Furthermore, he has been committed to the idea of ​​peaceful coexistence between humans and ghouls, and even tried to find him, only to be completely ignored.

Looking at the still silent Fujiwara Daichi, Yoshimura Eto found it amusing.

It turns out that when power reaches a certain level, it really can overcome all obstacles.

"How amusing that humans are begging ghouls for help!"

"I am human too," Mercury said calmly, his tone less firm than usual.

"...That's true." Yoshimura Eto's enormous body began to shrink. "So, before bringing them back, what's the plan for Osaka City?"

With bandages wrapped around his body, Yoshimura Eto appeared upright and faced Fujiwara Daichi and Keiji directly.

She didn't believe that these important figures couldn't find them, after all, the Nine-Tailed Fox Squad didn't go out without anyone's knowledge.

Although this whole thing was caused by Akihiro Kano, she was the one who ultimately took the blame.

Fujiwara Daichi and Keiji also fell silent.

After all, such a big accident has occurred, and it is very troublesome to resolve. The key question is who should be held responsible.

The three looked at each other, but none of them spoke first.

Mercury looked at the group and said calmly, "What's there to hesitate about? It's just half an okata. Minister Fujiwara's heart is set on Japan."

Regardless of his own thoughts, Fujiwara Daichi nodded in agreement: "After all, this is for the progress of society, and the losses caused by Mr. Mercury are understandable."

"It wasn't me, it was the Beast Group."

"Yes, yes, you see, I spoke too quickly again."

"Be careful next time, Minister Fujiwara."

"You're right, Mr. Mercury."

Watching the two of them chatter away, Yoshimura Eto casually turned the page on the disaster that had swept through half the city.

A chill suddenly ran through me.

She underestimated the ruthlessness of these Japanese high-ranking officials!
