After a few seconds, the call was connected.

"Hey, Yumi, are you home yet?"

There was no response from the other end.

Sosuke raised an eyebrow and calmly asked, "Who are you?"

“Mr. Atobe, this is our second phone call.”

A familiar voice came from behind.

Upon hearing the sound, Sosuke's eyes instantly turned terrifying.

It's Black Crow!

......

Let's move back a few days.

Black Crow organization stronghold.

The bald leader, Rum, listened to his subordinate's report with a displeased expression.

He was silent for a moment, then looked directly at Jin En, who had finished his report: "So, you mean that guy has been going back and forth between the school and the dojo lately, and we haven't had a chance to make a move at all, is that right?"

Jin En's face was calm, but his eyes were cold: "The section of road from his school to his dojo is in the bustling Bunkyo district, and the distance is very short. I also saw what appeared to be agents from the Countermeasures Bureau stationed near his dojo, providing relatively close surveillance and protection."

He paused, then continued, "Also, his dojo is home to that orange-haired woman who is suspected to be 'Laughing Prajna,' and given that Atobe Sousuke is a top-tier expert, we are short-handed. Even with Mr. Mutba's assistance, the risk of failure in a rash attack is very high."

Beside him, the Black man, Mutaba, who was sitting with his legs crossed on the sofa, nodded slightly and smiled, "Mr. King is indeed very cautious. To be honest, I really like your meticulous way of thinking, but..."

He continued, "I've already been here for more than ten days. Headquarters gave me a new mission yesterday, so I have to act as soon as possible. Whether I succeed or not, I have to leave soon."

He turned his head, his pale pupils staring blankly at King: "Mr. King, from what you said, that kid and all his close friends live in the dojo?"

Jin En shook her head and said softly, "There's a child named Mifune Yumi who goes home to stay on school days."

Mutba smiled and said, "Then, kidnap her, force that kid to come over here, and I'll beat him up and capture him."

"That's the only way."

......

......

Back to the scene of the call.

Upon hearing the familiar voice, Sosuke immediately recognized it.

That was the voice of the Black Crow organization member he had spoken to on the phone that day after the national tournament finals.

So he said coldly, "The Black Crow Organization? What brings you here this time?"

"Mr. Atobe has probably guessed that Yumi Mifune is in our hands, but rest assured, she is safe." The voice coming through the receiver was calm, yet it carried the arrogance of someone in control of the situation.

Sousuke said expressionlessly, "Hmm, I understand. Just tell me what conditions you want."

"We would like to invite Mr. Atobe over for a chat. Would you be willing to do us the honor?"

"Okay, tell me your address."

"If you know what's good for you, then please come over immediately. The location is..."

A few seconds later, after listening to what the other person had to say, Sosuke silently hung up the phone.

He then quickly put on his gear, jumped out of the window, and secretly left the dojo without telling anyone else.

......

The Black Crow organization's stronghold, a duplex penthouse on the top floor of a luxury apartment building.

Rum hung up the phone, a smile spreading across his face.

He glanced at Mifune Yumi, who was bound hand and foot beside him. The girl's mouth was taped shut, and she was looking at him with angry eyes.

“Young lady, I’m sorry to have dragged you into this.” Rum apologized gently to Yumi Mifune. “You can rest assured that we, the Black Crows, are a very disciplined organization. As long as Mr. Atobe behaves himself, we won’t do anything to you for the time being.”

He didn't seem to intend to have much of a conversation with Yumi Mifune. After offering a brief "comfort," he turned to his two subordinates standing to the side and said, "You two, find a room for her, lock her up, and keep a close eye on her."

"Okay." The two subordinates nodded seriously and immediately pushed Mifune Yumi away.

As I said before in Chapter 285, even Jesus couldn't keep you.

Only King, Walker, and Rum remained in the living room on the first floor.

King glanced at Rum, who seemed to have everything under control, thought for a moment, and said, "The target location has been fully prepared. All the remaining lower-level members of our Black Raven have been laid in ambush and are under the unified command of Mr. Mutba, who is also waiting there."

That's right, the location they sent Atobe Sousuke to wasn't their current base, but somewhere much farther away.

There was no Mifune Yumi there; instead, there were dozens of armed lower-level organization members who had already infiltrated the area, and the super-powerful expert Mutba was also in charge.

It has clearly become a dead end.

"Hmm, this time there shouldn't be any problems."

Rum picked up his glass and took a sip of water. "Now, all we need to do is wait for Mr. Mutba's good news."

Seeing Rum's confidence, King felt a strange unease welling up inside him.

The reason he was able to become a core member of the Black Crow organization and carry out so many critical missions without dying was because he had great faith in his intuition.

So he silently stood up and prompted Rum, "Do you think that Atobe Sousuke might be even more terrifying than we imagine?"

Rum paused for a moment, then chuckled at King's serious expression. "We've thoroughly assessed his abilities. While he was able to defeat Serpent Fang Hishin after he was drugged, not to mention that Mutba's strength far surpasses Serpent Fang Hishin's, he also carries our latest KX18. Even if Mutba couldn't beat him, the location we arranged for him to meet is far from our current base, so he won't be able to find us. What's there to be afraid of?"

King stared at Rum for a few seconds: "I have a bad feeling. What if he actually finds this location? Most of our forces are deployed on the other side..."

After a pause, King revealed his purpose: "I've decided to evacuate first. If you need anything, Mr. Rum, please contact me remotely."

"Walker, let's go."

Having said that, he turned and left the stronghold without hesitation.

His henchman Walker immediately obeyed and followed him away.

Rum, meanwhile, watched King leave speechlessly, inwardly criticizing him for being far too cautious.

......

......

Sosuke sped through the streets of Tokyo on a racing-grade motorcycle.

That's right. Tokyo, this international metropolis, does not ban motorcycles. In fact, it encourages people to use this smaller and more convenient mode of transportation than cars.

The accelerator was twisted to the floor, and the street scenes on both sides rushed past.

With his superhuman reflexes and body control, he weaved through traffic at completely illegal speeds.

On the street at that moment, a vehicle silhouette, resembling a convergence of colorful lines, was flashing brightly as it moved through his field of vision.

Inside the vehicle's phantom image, you can see Yumi Mifune sitting in the back seat, also composed of lines of light and shadow.

To Sousuke, this unique visual effect was as wondrous as a game's special effects.

This is the effect of "Eagle Senses".

Once this SSR-level magical skill is activated, his sixth sense will automatically analyze the external information he receives through his senses of sight, hearing, taste, smell, and touch.

Based on his request, it automatically processes and transforms these information elements into answers that he can intuitively understand.

For example, he is now eager to know where the class monitor is.

The car that took the squad leader home was a sedan from the Itako family, which Sosuke was very familiar with.

So after he stepped out of the dojo and began practicing this art.

Shallow tire tracks on the ground, a faint scent long since carried away by the wind in the air... all these tiny elements combined to form the information that Yumi Mifune left behind on her journey.

This is a type of information element that a normal person would never notice, much less be able to identify or analyze.

It was so obvious to Atobe Sousuke, who had awakened his "Eagle Senses".

Based on the information he collected, his subconscious automatically sketched out the "phantom" of the vehicle and its route in his mind, presenting it in his field of vision with special visual effects.

Therefore, as long as Sousuke follows the shadowy figure in his field of vision as fast as possible, he will definitely not go astray.

Whether the location given to him by the Black Crow Organization is his current destination is actually not important at all.

All he needs to do is find Yumi Mifune!

Soon, he "saw" the car projector being suddenly forced to stop on a side road.

Several shadowy figures, posing with guns, slipped into the front and back seats of the car, forcing the driver to keep driving. They then turned a corner and sped off on a road completely different from the one leading to Yumi's house.

Sosuke perked up and immediately revved the engine to catch up.

......

A dozen minutes later, he parked his motorcycle outside a residential area and started walking.

Under the cover of night, Sosuke wore a black hoodie and sweatpants, with the hoodie pulled up.

I watched as the car's blurry silhouette drove into the underground parking lot of the residential complex.

There is a security room at the entrance to the parking lot, where a security guard is meticulously watching the area ahead.

However, this level of security awareness, which can only detect petty theft by ordinary people, is a joke in the face of Sosuke.

His basic movement technique level in ninjutsu is now as high as "40", and with the added benefit of learning from each other, it has reached "47".

This extremely high level of agility allows Sousuke to become the most skilled ninja, perfectly able to advance by exploiting blind spots in the vision of ordinary people.

The sentry post, which was run by ordinary people, was like his own home to him, and he could come and go as he pleased.

He took out three playing cards, and with a flick of his wrist, the three cameras pointed at the basement entrance were immediately blocked.

The next second, his figure moved like a ghost, quickly passing under the security guard's nose and successfully entering the basement.

Then, the illusory images of vehicles that kept changing with his field of vision led him forward, finally stopping in a parking space and slowly and precisely overlapping with the real vehicles.

Soon, the driver and the phantom of Mifune Yumi got out of the vehicle and were pushed forward.

He immediately followed, and soon followed "them" into the elevator lobby.

Sosuke and the phantoms waited together at the elevator entrance for a while until the elevator doors opened and they all went inside.

He looked at the elevator buttons; amidst the chaotic lights, the button representing the "top floor" flashed with an unusual brightness.

So he pressed the button for that floor.

Tonight, we'll annihilate that suicidal Black Crow organization.

He had already said it before—they were doomed.

Even Jesus couldn't save them!

***

Chapter 286 Divine Speed

The elevator's floor display screen flickered slowly.

Sosuke raised his sheathed sword to his eyes and gently drew half of it out.

The blade was straight and thin as a cicada's wing. Under the elevator lights, it gleamed with a chilling light, like autumn water.

This blade, forged from Orichalcos steel, will be saturated with human blood tonight.

Sosuke sheathed his long sword and stood quietly.

With a "ding" notification.

We've reached the top floor.

The elevator doors slowly opened.

A few meters away, at the end of the corridor, was a luxurious door.

Two tall men in black suits stood on either side of the gate, exuding a fierce aura.

Just as Sosuke saw them, they were also drawn to the open elevator doors.

Immediately following was an exclamation.
