She immediately picked up the phone and notified Kishimoto Shingo to inform all the police inspectors to report any sightings of Hanako or Sachiko immediately.

Shimizu Suzune didn't quite understand Fujita Mino's actions. She pointed out, "Although Hanako and the others aren't very strong during the day, I don't think they'd be foolish enough to fight us during the day."

Fujita Mino playfully stuck her tongue out at Shimizu Suzune: "Hehe, I'm not going to fight them!"

Upon hearing this, even without Fujita Mino saying it herself, Shimizu Suzune had already guessed the meaning behind it.

She probably wanted to negotiate with Hanako and Sachiko or something; in any case, trying is better than doing nothing.

Sure enough, Fujita Mino actually stood up, turned her head, and was about to walk out.

"Where are you going?" Shimizu Suzune asked with concern.

Looking out the door, Fujita Mino thought for a moment and said, "I want to go for a walk; who knows what unexpected discoveries I might make."

Shimizu Suzune had some concerns. She said, "But if you go out, what if Hanako comes down again and Tokyo loses internet access? We won't be able to contact her again."

Fujita Mino smiled, revealing two rows of white teeth: "Don't worry, I'll be back before sunset."

Shimizu Suzune nodded. "Then go ahead, but remember to come back before sunset. After all, we don't know if Hanako will launch a new attack at night."

"Then I'll go!" After receiving Shimizu Rin's approval, Fujita Mino had no more worries and ran straight out of the Shinto Hall.

In the second office, Jun Morita and Risa Ishikawa were puzzled when they saw Mino Fujita run out of the Shinto Hall, but considering that Suzune Shimizu knew about it, they didn't say anything and simply ignored the situation.

After walking outside, Fujita Mino did not choose to use transportation, but instead walked on foot through the streets, looking at the scene before her.

The streets were in chaos.

The streets were filled with people rushing to escape Tokyo, their cars blocking almost every road.

Fortunately, it was just a traffic jam, not a people jam, and Fujita Mino easily left the vicinity of Shinto Hall.

She didn't know where she was going, but she wanted to go to the beach.

Speaking of the seaside...

According to Risa Ishikawa, there seems to be a sea monster there...

Hanako, Enma Ai, and an unknown sea monster—so many enemies! This world is truly chaotic.

Now that Hanako and Enma Ai are nowhere to be found, the only ghost that Fujita Mino knows of is the sea monster on the beach.

She decided to pay them a visit.

Before Fujita Mino even got close to the Tokyo seaside, she discovered a long line of cars waiting on the main road near the sea.

Perhaps they were people trying to escape Tokyo by water. After a brief moment of thought, Fujita Mino turned and headed towards the sea.

After several minutes of sweating, Fujita Mino saw the sea she was looking for, and sure enough, the sea was still surging.

Fujita Mino didn't know where she was, but she did know that it was a shallow beach, and it was difficult to see what was going on underwater from the shore.

However, it is clear that something is indeed causing trouble on the seabed, frantically churning the water and making it difficult for nearby ships to set sail.

Is it difficult for ships to set sail?

Fujita Mino turned her head away, already wondering if there would be any danger if a passenger ship set sail at this moment...

For safety's sake, Fujita Mino could only send a message to Kishimoto Shingo, explaining the situation at sea and asking him to use all his power to prevent all ships from going out to sea today.

After sending the message, Fujita Mino continued to observe the seabed. She thought for a moment and felt that she still needed to find a high place.

Fujita Mino can't fly, so she can only run along the coast to see if there are any tall buildings to broaden her field of vision.

Soon, Fujita Mino spotted a tower nearby. Although she didn't know what it was for, she quickly approached the tower and climbed to the top using the stairs that surrounded it.

Once she reached the top of the tower, Fujita Mino could finally see the sea monster lurking in the deep sea in the distance—she could only make out its two terrifying eyes that looked like red lanterns.

Its body is invisible, but judging from its ghostly outline, this sea monster would be more than ten stories tall if it climbed ashore.

The mere fact that this combination of Hanako and Sachiko has terrified the people of Tokyo so much, the consequences would be unimaginable if this monster-like thing were to climb ashore.

When that time comes, the whole world will focus on Tokyo Bay, although right now the world's attention is already focused on Tokyo.

Yes, there is nothing wrong.

Hanako and Sachiko caused panic and, in the aftermath, preserved the memories of Tokyo citizens, which is bound to elicit a strong reaction in East Asia and even the world.

Fujita Mino wasn't quite sure why the citizens' memories were preserved, but now that the situation was out of control, she might as well think about how to defeat Hanako and Sachiko first.

So she came here, but after observing for a while, she found that there was only one sea monster in the seabed, and it seemed to have no connection with Hanako and Sachiko.

Somewhat disappointed.

However, Fujita Mino's trip was not in vain. When she was measuring the outline of the sea monster, she discovered that the total amount of demonic power contained in this sea monster was close to that of Hanako.

This means that, given time, this sea monster will eventually become the new Demon King, something Fujita Mino absolutely does not want to see.

But what do we do now?

Should we go to war with it?

Although it is not yet the Demon King, it is currently hiding deep in the sea and constantly stirring up the water. At present, Fujita Mino has no means to effectively kill it.

Even when using the Kusanagi Sword, the damage will be reduced to some extent after the seawater is cleaved through.

Wait, split the seawater?

A bold idea suddenly flashed through Fujita Mino's mind: if she could cleave through the sea and attack the sea monster, would she be able to provoke it and lure it ashore on its own?

Fujita Mino quickly approved the battle plan. She immediately sent a message to Shimizu Suzune, explaining her observations and battle strategy.

A short while later, Shimizu Suzune replied with a text message, but in the message she told her not to act rashly.

"Fine, I won't move!"

Looking at the text message on her phone, Fujita Mino gritted her teeth, feeling somewhat indignant.

However, what the senior said makes sense. There are too many enemies now. If we summon the divine messengers to fight the sea monster now, it will waste a lot of divine power, and it will be difficult to fight against the combination of Hanako and Sachiko at night.

Just as Fujita Mino was dejected and preparing to leave the beach, a cannonball formed from seawater suddenly appeared in the seabed and hit her with a loud bang.

Caught off guard, Fujita Mino was instantly soaked to the bone, and the weight on her body began to increase.

She turned around in surprise, only to see another cannonball fired from the seabed. The cannonball was faster than a human missile, so she had no way to dodge it now.

Fujita Mino could only watch helplessly as her body was knocked back several meters by the water cannonball, staggered, and fell to the ground.

That was close.

If she weren't a divine messenger, a cannonball hitting her at that speed would probably have turned her into a meat pie.

The attacks did not stop.

Just as Fujita Mino plopped down on the ground, another water-condensed cannonball shot out of the sea.

Fortunately, since Fujita Mino had already sat down, the cannonballs fired from the water could no longer hit her, only narrowly missing her head.

Just as Fujita Mino was filled with surprise and secretly relieved that the cannonball had missed, a huge crab leg surfaced and then shot straight at Fujita Mino.

Fujita Mino was taken aback. Still facing the coast, she quickly began to move on the ground. With a "bang," the crab's claws pierced through the hem of Fujita Mino's shrine maiden dress and went deep into the ground.

so close!

The crab's claws almost hit Fujita Mino's groin, it looked like it missed by only a centimeter or two!

Fujita Mino tried to stand up, but she couldn't. In desperation, she summoned the Ama-no-Murakumo-no-Tsurugi. As soon as she summoned the sword, she struck the crab claw in front of her.

"Bang, bang, bang!"

Tap three times in succession.

Sparks flew!

Seemingly in pain, the crab claw finally dragged a deep trench back into the deep sea, and the shrine maiden's skirt above the trench was naturally cut in half.

However, Fujita Mino couldn't care less about that now. She quickly got up, raised the Ame-no-Murakumo sword, and assumed a horse stance, ready to fight again.

However, it seemed the other side had no intention of fighting anymore; after the crab claw returned to the sea, it did not come back up for a long time.

"Is it over?" Fujita Mino nervously swallowed a mouthful of water, keeping her face towards the shore, and began to back away.

Just as she had taken several steps back and was finally able to relax, she suddenly heard a sound coming from underground.

"No, no way?" Fujita Mino's pupils trembled wildly as the ground began to "bulge" right before her eyes.

Upon seeing this, she immediately turned and ran. The next second, sure enough, the crab claw burst out of the ground right where she had been standing!

"Boom—!"

A deafening roar, just like an earthquake!

A huge red crab claw, resembling a skyscraper, stood behind Fujita Mino.

Sensing something amiss behind her, Fujita Mino quickly turned around and saw the "skyscraper" tilting at an angle, heading straight for her!

Due to the opponent's speed and attack range, Fujita Mino could only thrash to the sides of the attack range and roll on the ground.

However, this does not completely prevent injury. When the crab claws slammed into the ground, even though Fujita Mino was not in the attack range, her body was still thrown into the air by the additional impact.

Then, he fell heavily to the ground.

The fall caused Fujita Mino to lose a tooth and her mouth to be full of blood.

Fujita Mino quickly sat up, spat out the blood and teeth, then picked up the teeth and put them in her pocket, swallowing back the little bit of blood left in her mouth.

She wiped her mouth, looking at the crab claw deeply embedded in the ground, "This injury is nothing to worry about..."

She stood up, raised the Kusanagi Sword high, and prepared to unleash a charged attack on the crab claw.

Unfortunately, the enemy, whether having recovered or realizing the attack, quickly raised its crab claws.

Seeing that it was about to escape, Fujita Mino had no choice but to interrupt her charge-up and use a ranged attack to strike the crab's claws.

"Crackling—!"

The divine power struck the crab's claws, generating numerous sparks, which accelerated the enemy's escape.

In no time, the huge crab claw retracted into the ground and disappeared.

Taking advantage of the enemy's momentary lapse in attention, Fujita Mino quickly turned around and started running.

Whether it was because she subdued the crab's claws or because it hadn't recovered, Fujita Mino finally managed to escape the coast and return to the city.

It was already noon, and the city was much less crowded than it had been in the morning.

Fujita Mino had no interest in appreciating this nonsense; she was more concerned about what to do about the tooth that had been knocked out!
