Crossover Anime: How a Shameless Person Lives

Chapter 58 The King of Salt: Will He Win?

"boom!!!"

The slightly darkening sky was instantly illuminated.

A tremendous explosion resounded through the sky.

The entire mountain collapsed due to the earthquake.

A mushroom cloud slowly rose over Kyoto.

Mercury, watching this scene from afar, couldn't help but think of the two little boys.

History is always strikingly similar.

Why are there always some guys in this land who love to court death?

"Saltification..."

Feeling the heat wave hitting him, Mercury tried to salt these things.

Unfortunately, it's completely impossible.

I have absolutely no clue.

"If it's just physics, that won't work at all..."

Sighing inwardly, Mercury, who had just vented his frustrations, became depressed again.

Whether it's a "whirlpool," bacteria in a "fish," or a collective suicide of people who believe "everyone is alone," etc.

If we rely solely on physical means, there's absolutely no chance of winning.

Things that can't be solved physically include pollution, and even the apocalypse.

Simply put, if a disaster occurs, you die; if it doesn't, you live.

Fortunately, there is still some hope.

Mercury chuckled self-deprecatingly and glanced at the system panel.

……

The moment the centipede monster was killed, his physical condition improved dramatically.

It seems that if that centipede monster doesn't take action, it might have a significant impact on this world, and could potentially become another disaster.

Human beings have created their own disaster!

This is really... cough cough.

far away.

Mercury clenched his fist, feeling his physique improve, and his perception of salt seemed to have become more distant.

A good omen!

"What are you thinking about?"

Beside her, Yoshimura Eto, who had reverted to her petite appearance, asked with a smile.

Mercury withdrew his gaze from the mushroom cloud, the salt grains trembling slightly in his palm, echoing the slowly growing power within him.

Turning her head to look at the petite Yoshimura Eto, she said sarcastically, "Neither humans nor ghouls are easy to deal with."

It's already hard enough to live in this world, and now they're just throwing shit into it like crazy.

Fortunately, he wasn't a savior and didn't have any savior complex.

Fight if you can win, run if you can't, and die if you can't escape.

"Hahaha!"

Thinking of the overpowered monster, Whirlpool, Mercury chuckled speechlessly again.

I'll call Shuichi when I get back and try to persuade him.

Come to think of it, it's been about half a month since we separated, hasn't it?

Yoshimura Eto tiptoed up and patted his arm, a sly look on her face. "Let's discuss it."

"what?"

"Your ability is to turn things into salt, right?"

"Hmm, what's up? Is something the matter?"

Yoshimura Aite's eyes lit up, and he said enticingly, "Salt is a valuable commodity, and our Aogiri Tree is currently facing a cash crunch..."

"Wait! It's 'you all,' not 'us.'" Mercury corrected her grammatical error first, then said, "You want me to be a 'salt merchant'?"

"What 'salt peddler,' that sounds awful," Yoshimura Aite said with a laugh. "You should call us entrepreneurs. When we make money, I'll give you ninety percent, how about that?"

"Why would I do something like this... huh?"

Mercury, who was about to refuse the job, suddenly had a bright look in his eyes.

He can control the salt he produces.

So, assuming someone else eats the salt he produces, can he control it before it's digested?

As the amount accumulates, can the digested salt also be controlled?

I should look up information about the salt content in the human body when I get back.

Moreover, there is no harm in distributing the salt you produce all over the world!

Consider it as preparing an arsenal in advance.

"Or I'll give you 80% and you 20%?" Seeing Mercury remain silent, Yoshimura Eto immediately took a step back, already starting to make plans in his mind.

"I want nine floors." He made an outrageous demand.

Upon hearing this request, Yoshimura Ete's face darkened, and he said irritably, "This is smuggling, which is very risky. I can only give you 30% at most. If you don't want it, then forget it."

"Deal, but you must let me know if Bronze Tree has any events in the future."

Mercury readily agreed to this highly profitable deal.

Anyway, I don't understand distribution channels or anything like that.

I'll leave it to Yoshimura Ete.

"no problem."

Even if Mercury didn't say anything, she wouldn't let go of this powerful combat force.

"Have you figured out how to break through the encirclement?"

"Heh heh, come with me, Arima has already prepared an escape route."

"Reliable."

……

"Damn it! You mean the Bronze Tree guys ran away right in front of us!?"

Arriving at the scene, Marude Sai angrily questioned the Special Class Leader who had disappeared during the battle.

"Why aren't you on the battlefield?!"

"No comment."

An unnamed special classmate stared at Marude Sai with an equally grim expression.

He was supposed to be protecting important data, but not only was the database hacked, he also failed to keep an eye on that special thing.

He could already imagine what kind of punishment awaited him when he returned to the V organization.

Thinking about all this, he lost interest in talking to Marude and left directly.

"Damn it!" Marude Sai cursed again in anger.

His eyes were fixed on the special agent who had been parachuted into the CCG.

The suspicion in his heart made him feel increasingly depressed.

The investigators around him remained silent, none of them daring to speak.

They all knew that the CCG's commander-in-chief had always had a fiery temper, and at this moment he was clearly thoroughly enraged.

Not only did most of the members of the Bronze Tree escape, but they were also looked down upon by a mysterious "parachute special class," which was an utter disgrace.

Marude Sai took a deep breath and forced himself to calm down.

"Marute, what's wrong?"

Hara Yukinori, who had also come from Tokyo, walked over and asked with concern.

"It's nothing. You've come at the right time. Help me direct the scene; I need to go somewhere."

"Okay, I'll take care of this."

Seeing his old friend's serious expression, Hara Yukinori nodded.

……

Having escaped the scene of the "accident," Marude went straight to the house of his friends, the Mado couple.

Everything here remains exactly as it was when Mado Kureo and Mado Miyako passed away, with a family photo of the three of them hanging on the wall.

"Hey~ Don't worry, leave your daughters to me."

There was no time for reflection; I went straight to the study.

Marutei's gaze swept across the bookshelf, finally settling on a locked metal cabinet.

He remembered complaining about this the last time he was drinking.

Mado Mii's expression immediately seemed off.

He didn't pay much attention to it at the time.

Looking back now, I realize I was such an idiot.

He skillfully found the key on the bookshelf, inserted it into the lock, and turned it gently.

The cabinet door was opened, revealing stacks of documents neatly arranged inside, with a suicide note on top!

"Did you know this day would come?"

Marude glanced at the suicide note, put it in his pocket, and then opened the document.

The contents of the document caused his pupils to shrink sharply!
