Konoha's Mission Master

"Last time on the sea...didn't we have a very pleasant chat? You even praised me as a partner of justice."

The nearby navy personnel instinctively took a half step back, fearing they might overhear something secret and be physically erased.

Zhan Guo frowned, realizing something was wrong.

We can't let this guy keep talking nonsense. Although this kind of harmless provocation won't have any impact on him, he'll inevitably have to cooperate with the investigation to prove his innocence, which is quite troublesome.

As I get older... what I dislike most is trouble.

"Oh? I didn't expect Sengoku to be so fond of this little guy?"

The CP0 chief smiled indifferently.

"Oh, right... I forgot to introduce myself."

You can call me Yue Shi.

"What's the point of such a simple provocation?"

Sengoku asked Yakumo with some displeasure, but did not respond to Shizuki's words. In fact, Sengoku did not know much about this person in charge of the CP department, only that he was a rather difficult person.

"It's pointless, isn't it just boring?"

Yakumo pursed his lips. He sensed that Aokiji and Fujitora had arrived and were now flanking him. It might be difficult for him to leave later.

"Humph."

Zhan Guo snorted coldly.

Seeing that Sengoku was not cooperating, Yakumo did not continue to speak.

Under the moonlight, Yakumo leaned against the golden wall, surrounded by a tight net of enemies, yet his face remained calm, as if he had no fear whatsoever.

Half an hour later, the encirclement became even tighter, and it was filled with elites from the Navy and CP departments.

It has already formed a tight net.

In the courtyard, Yakumo's expression remained remarkably calm.

"The night is beautiful tonight... isn't it?"

Yue Shi adjusted her mask and asked Yakumo with a light laugh.

Yakumo turned his head and looked at the leader of the CP department. He was originally a gentleman, with polite and composed manners and a friendly voice. He was a kind elder.

But now, Yakumo felt an overwhelming malice emanating from him, an evil that could only be condensed by countless tragedies, especially his once peaceful eyes, which were now bloodshot.

"Yes, it's beautiful tonight," Yakumo exclaimed.

Upon hearing this, Yue Shi continued...

"It would be quite suitable as a funeral venue."

The murderous intent was no longer concealed.

Yakumo remained unmoved by the murderous intent, simply putting the twin blades back into the Glory Sword Sheath.

"But I'm not in a good mood."

"What a coincidence, me too..."

Yue Shi nervously frantically rubbed the white gloves on her hands, her body trembling slightly.

“I haven’t been punished by those adults for many years.”

"My lord? Do you mean the Five Elders?"

"of course."

Yue Shi responded, then asked another question.

"You could have used these people as hostages to allow your main body to escape the encirclement, but why did you choose to... have your clone take that woman away while your main body obediently stays here?"

Yakumo's original plan was just as Tsukiju had said: after finding Shyvana, he would use her as a hostage to leave the Holy Land of Mary Geoise safely.

But when he saw the torture Shyvana was suffering, his anger, which had subsided, was reignited.

"The woman you're talking about is named Gildono Silvana. She used to have an incredibly happy family, but... just because I boarded her family's merchant ship, dozens of people died!"

"This led to... her suffering hellish torment!"

Yakumo responded quickly and coldly.

"You're staying to avenge them?"

Yue Shi asked with some surprise.

You're right.

Yakumo responded casually, but the anger in his eyes was palpable. As he raged, the floor beneath his feet began to crack, and a sage's mark appeared on his forehead.

"Hahahaha, their weakness... is their fault!"

Yue Shi laughed wildly as she announced the cruel truth.

"Go! Kill him!"

During the phone conversation just now... the Five Elders' real plan was to temporarily hold off Yakumo, and at the cost of sacrificing more than a dozen Celestial Dragons, completely kill the Thousand-Faced Demon Emperor in the Holy Land of Mary Geoise.

Although the rules grant Celestial Dragons special privileges, those Celestial Dragons who lack the talent for cultivation and simply loaf around are also secretly trading for a price.

In the eyes of the Five Elders, exchanging a dozen useless people for the death of the Thousand-Faced Demon Emperor was a very worthwhile deal.

During the delay, all the other Celestial Dragons had already evacuated, and now the Holy Land of Mary Geoise was a huge hunting ground.

The dense crowd charged fearlessly toward the only prey in the field, their bodies seemingly carrying an overwhelming momentum.

In an instant, the CP department, dressed in black suits, burst into the courtyard.

This will be your grave!

Yue Shi sneered as he slipped into the shadows. He was the world's strongest assassin, only needing to wait for the moment his enemy showed weakness before swiftly beheading him.

Pop, pop, pop.

All thirteen hostages died.

Warring States period: His eyes revealed a hint of reluctance.

But he still rushed towards Yakumo.

All that Yakumo could see were enemies.

But he wasn't afraid.

Instead, I kept reminiscing about Yue Shi's declaration.

Yakumo pushed off with his legs to create distance from the crowd, and at the same time roared at them. This was the first time in his life that he had shouted and revealed his voice to the world.

"You say that weakness is the original sin."

“You say that some people are born holy and live high in the clouds.”

"But I will use the knife in my hand to make you understand the equality of all beings!"

"Ha, how ridiculous."

A ray of moonlight bloomed, piercing directly into Yakumo's back, chilling him to the bone, yet Yue Shi did not show a smile.

In his gaze, the enemy's body transformed into a wooden figure.

This is an even more difficult-to-distinguish wooden clone.

Yakumo leaped high into the air, looking down at Tsukishiro from mid-air.

"How can a man born into this world willingly become a slave?"

Under the moonlight, I clasp my hands together.

He spoke softly.

"burst!"

Yakumo buried a total of six million explosive tags in the buildings surrounding Mary Geoise; this was all the stock in Konoha's war reserve.

He originally intended to use the explosive tags as a backup plan; he didn't expect to go this far.

But when Yue Shi said that weakness is a sin.

Yakumo suddenly realized.

He made no compromises with the world government.

This is a clash of ideologies and a collision of rule systems; in this battle, no one is innocent.

This explosion will cause many deaths.

But he had no intention of holding back.

After all, these people really intended to kill him.

The image of Rengoku Kyojuro appeared in Yakumo's mind.

"I will stand in the darkness and defend the light."

"If the world does not understand, I will still defend the light."

"Do what you believe is right."

In mid-air, Yakumo clasped his hands together.

"burst."

At first, the surroundings were completely silent, but then a dazzling white light turned the night into day, and a series of explosions began, gradually expanding from about ten explosions per second to a density of more than a thousand explosions per second.

"Rumble..."

The entire world seemed to be shaking, and the magnificent golden dome around them rapidly collapsed, kicking up dust several meters high as it hit the ground. The surrounding enemies began to panic, even riot.

The whole of Mary Geoise is collapsing and teetering on the brink of collapse.

A bloodcurdling scream erupted from the crowd. He was unfortunately impaled by steel bars caused by the explosion, and small stones flew everywhere like bullets. The surrounding buildings collapsed in large sections.
