Chapter 408: This World Is Too Dangerous

After subduing the blackmailer, Broly came behind Tendo Kisara, slipped his forearm under the Sword Ghost Girl's armpit, and, amid Tendo Kisara's exclamation, lifted her off the ground and flew out through the open window.

The wind aloft was rather strong, blowing straight into her face, and Tendo Kisara's smooth black hair directly plastered itself all over Broly's face.

Broly shook his head but couldn't shake off the long hair on his face; after a moment's thought, he turned around, put his back to the wind, and the hair blew forward, leaving his face.

"Where is the Tendo Family?"

The Saiyan boy leaned close to the black long-haired girl's ear and asked.

"Over there."

Tendo Kisara felt her ear itch a little and quickly raised her finger to point a direction.

Broly flew in the direction she pointed.

The speed wasn't fast, so he didn't need to put up an energy shield.

"Being able to fly is really nice."

Tendo Kisara, whose body was being carried through the air by the Saiyan boy behind her, couldn't help but utter some exclamations as she experienced the sensation of flying in the flesh for the first time.

"Do you want to learn this? I can teach you."

After hearing this, Broly said to the girl in his hands.

"Eh, is this something I can learn?"

Hearing this, Tendo Kisara was somewhat surprised, but asked anyway.

"You can learn it, but whether you can actually fly after learning is uncertain, because flying requires possessing enough Qi..."

Broly and Tendo Kisara briefly summarized the method of Qi manipulation for flying, but he couldn't guarantee that she would definitely be able to fly once she learned to use Qi.

In the Dragon Ball World, flying is a basic ability possessed by many low-level fighters, but individuals of a race without wings or other flying abilities need at least the level of Tien Shinhan from the early Dragon Ball World to achieve flying with Qi.

The Black Bullet World also has martial arts, and the martial arts level here isn't low; things like Sword Qi cutting the floor or one punch smashing a big tree count as a low-martial world.

Tendo Kisara wasn't unfamiliar with the Qi Broly spoke of, but thinking she could fly just from hearing about it was wishful thinking.

This Sword Ghost Girl's strength was at most at the level of certain martial artists participating in the early Dragon Ball World's World Martial Arts Tournament.

Learning to fly with Qi would probably take a long time of practice.

By this time, Broly had already brought her down in descent.

From the Office of Directors at the Holy Residence to the Tendo Family's manor, while explaining the principle of Qi flying along the way, it took only a little over a minute.

After landing and steadying herself, Tendo Kisara grasped the long blade at her waist; the cold white blade was drawn from its sheath, and the black long-haired girl gripped the hilt, drawing several cold trails of blade light in the air, and a few steps away, the Tendo Family's large wooden door was suddenly split open.

"After hearing your explanation of Ki Theory, my swordsmanship seems to have improved again; thank you."

Tendo Kisara sincerely thanked the boy.

"Who is making a scene at the Tendo Family's door?"

Just then, the noise of the large wooden door being shattered also attracted people from inside the Tendo Manor, who came out to check the situation.

"Eh, Miss Kisara?!"

The butler with a black face came out, and upon seeing Tendo Kisara outside, a look of astonishment appeared on his black face.

"Butler Imamura, please report to the former Tendo Assistant Official, sir; his matter has come up!"

Hearing this, Butler Imamura's heart sank, thinking that the USB drive placed at the door tonight had been exposed.

"Tendo Kisara, coming home is coming home, but what are you doing hacking at the door with a blade?"

But before the butler could speak, another man with glasses walked out from inside the Tendo Family.

"Tendo Kazumitsu, don't use that lecturing tone to preach to me!"

"Hah, is this the attitude you use to speak to your older brother?"

"First, after our parents died, the Tendo Family, which kept silent about the cause of their deaths, is no longer my home."

"Second, you, who live in the Tendo Family as if nothing happened while disregarding our parents' deaths, are no longer my brother."

"Third, the Tendo Family bribed the army to do things endangering the Tokyo Safe Zone; this matter has already failed and been exposed, and I am here to arrest you all—this is an arrest warrant."

Tendo Kisara said as she took out from her pocket an arrest warrant bearing the Holy Son of Heaven's private seal and showed it to Tendo Kazumitsu.

"Hah, using power for personal gain, right? You really think that just because Grandfather is no longer an advisor and you've become a favorite by the Holy Son of Heaven's side, you can do whatever you want to the Tendo Family?"

Tendo Kazumitsu was first somewhat dazed, but after thinking of something, he began mocking Tendo Kisara.

"Let me tell you, impossible; even the Holy Son of Heaven behind you cannot do whatever he wants to the Tendo Family."

Trying to pin a crime on me and act recklessly—what an international joke; the Tendo Family merely lost the position of advisor, but other members of the family still hold important posts in some key departments.

"So, do you intend to resist arrest?"

"What, are you still preparing to use force?"

Tendo Kazumitsu showed contempt.

"Just relying on you, a family traitor with a damaged kidney?"

This person asked mockingly.

"You're injured?"

Broly looked at Tendo Kisara, frowned, and asked.

"Just an old injury; if I wanted to cure it, I could just get a mechanical kidney, but before I avenge my parents, I want to use this pain to remember this hatred—I'm fine otherwise."

Tendo Kisara explained.

"Clinging to the past—I've told you before, our parents' death was just an accident; when will you grow up?"

"If it was an accident, why did the family cover it up? Why didn't they thoroughly investigate the Gastrea that intruded back then—exactly how did it bypass the Safe Zone's defenses, enter the city, and enter the Tendo Family?"

"This is not something a child like you should worry about."

"Then I want to ask you, why don't you, an adult, care about it!"

Tendo Kisara's long blade was pointed at Tendo Kazumitsu.

"Bring me my gun."

The female secretary was given such an order and quickly brought over a long spear, handing it to Tendo Kazumitsu.

The two siblings of the Tendo Family, whose ages differed greatly, faced each other across the broken gate.

Upon learning the matter had nothing to do with the USB drive, Butler Imamura breathed a sigh of relief, but now his heart was in his throat again.

"Young Master Kazumitsu, Miss Kisara, please stop."

He persuaded them.

"Butler Imamura, you just stop talking. It's not that I want to make things difficult for her, but that she is making things difficult for us. If we don't give her a profound lesson today, who knows what upsetting things this ungrateful family traitor will do tomorrow?"

"However, rest assured. She is, after all, my younger sister. I won't kill her. At most, I'll cripple the hand she uses to hold a knife!"

"Funny, I was thinking the same thing."

Before finding concrete evidence directly linking her parents' deaths to the Tendo Family, Tendo Kisara had not yet developed killing intent toward the people of the Tendo Family, such as her own older brother.

Just as the two were about to start fighting, Broly directly arrived in front of Tendo Kazumitsu and reached out to grab the man's wrist.

"What?"

Tendo Kazumitsu hadn't reacted yet when sudden pain shot from his wrist.

"Ah!"

He cried out in pain, the long spear fell directly to the ground, and his hand bones had already been pinched and broken by the Saiyan boy.

【How did he get over here?

Why were my hand bones easily pinched and broken by a boy?

Did Tendo Kisara do something?】

Tendo Kazumitsu, who did not understand Broly's identity nor know the boy's strength, had his head full of question marks.

"This must be the mastermind behind the scenes. We can take him back now."

Broly dragged Tendo Kazumitsu over to the black long straight girl and said.

"Uh, the person who is the current ruler of the Tendo Family isn't him, but Tendo Chikunojō."

Tendo Kisara explained.

"So, I caught the wrong person?"

Broly asked somewhat confusedly.

"I don't know if he participated."

Tendo Kisara shook her head.

"Hey, was it you who ordered someone to fire at the Scorpio?"

Broly thought about it and then asked the man beside him directly.

"Huh?"

Tendo Kazumitsu looked completely dazed because he had no idea about the firing.

"Pretending not to know?"

Broly frowned, reached out and grabbed the man's other wrist, and there was another creak...

"Ah, no, it hurts so much, no, I've never ordered anyone to fire at the Scorpio!"

The pain of his other wrist breaking made Tendo Kazumitsu react immediately, and he hurriedly denied it.

"You're lying to me?"

Broly frowned and was about to give this man a good lesson, but was stopped by Tendo Kisara.

"Where is Tendo Chikunojō?"

The black long straight girl asked directly.

"Grandpa went abroad to visit friends."

Tendo Kazumitsu no longer had the aura he had when scolding his sister just now, and his lips moved quickly to explain everything he knew.

Afraid that if he spoke too late, the boy who had pinched his wrist would continue to harm him.

"Going abroad to visit friends at this time? He's probably fleeing to escape his crimes, right?"

Tendo Kisara furrowed her pretty eyebrows.

"Where did he flee to?"

Broly released Tendo Kazumitsu's wrist but pinched the man's neck and floated upward, lifting him directly and asking.

"I, I don't know."

As soon as the words fell, Tendo Kazumitsu felt the hand grabbing his neck begin to increase its strength.

"But he knows."

"Who knows?"

"Butler Imamura."

Since both his hands were pinched and broken, Tendo Kazumitsu could only lift his foot to point at someone.

Butler Imamura: "..."

This grandson's speed in selling out his own grandfather is truly fast.

"Lord Chikunojō took a plane to the United States tonight, saying he wanted to visit some friends over there."

As the two looked over, Butler Imamura hurriedly explained.

"I should be able to contact Lord Chikunojō, and as for the matter of firing at the Scorpio, there must be some misunderstanding here."

Tendo Chikunojō was sitting on a private plane bound for the United States, but the sudden video call from the butler brought him terrible news.

Someone had intruded into Heaven's Ladder and used Heaven's Ladder to fire at the Scorpio.

And the person who fired had already been caught red-handed by that Saiyan boy.

The other party informed on those behind it, saying it was the Tendo Family giving the orders.

Hearing this news, Tenkō Chikunojō, seated on the airplane seat, blackened his face.

He did want to eliminate Scorpio, but before the Saiyan boy had dealt with him, would he make a move against Scorpio?

He wasn't an old birthday star eating arsenic, wanting to die.

"If it's not you, why did you run away?"

Broly had this classic line appear in his mind and directly began to question him.

"This old man did not run away; this old man merely went abroad to visit a friend."

Tenkō Chikunojō immediately replied.

"In the middle of the night, going abroad to visit a friend?"

Tenkō Kisarazu issued an inquiry.

"On the Washington side, it is still daytime now."

"Uh..."

"I can prove this."

Broly raised his hand and said.

"Huh?"

Tenkō Kisarazu looked over with some surprise.

"I have a friend I met online; she once said she was on the Washington side."

Broly explained in one sentence.

"How do you prove that you yourself have nothing to do with this matter?"

"Proving one's innocence is the most foolish thing; this old man finds it very difficult to prove that he did not do something he did not do, but as long as something has been done, there must surely be traces left behind."

"Since the person caught firing the cannon said it was our Tendo Family who spent money to bribe him to fire at Scorpio, then you can go check the money the Tendo Family used to bribe the other party."

Tenkō Chikunojō was very certain that his family absolutely had not spent such a sum of money.

Even some members' private treasuries could not possibly be actively spent on dealing with Scorpio.

After all, ten years ago, that kind of thing happened...

"The Holy Son of Heaven wants a fair and open conviction."

Tenkō Kisarazu said.

"Alright, then go back and investigate clearly."

Broly was not impulsive, but he also declared his attitude.

"If it is finally found that the Tendo Family is the mastermind behind the scenes, then no matter where this Tendo Family head runs to, I will find you and then kill you."

"This old man walks upright and sits properly; I will not run, nor will I hide."

"Best be so."

Tenkō Chikunojō: "..."

From the video boy's words, he felt a faint chill.

If this matter was done by himself, and he hid to avoid being found by the other party, what would this monster boy do?

Closing the communication, Tenkō Chikunojō sat silently in his seat for a while, then called the flight attendant on the private plane.

"Not going to Washington anymore; return trip, back to Tokyo."

The private plane turned around and flew back in the direction they came from.

More than half an hour later, returning to Tokyo, Tenkō Chikunojō, who came to the Holy Residence side to meet the Holy Son of Heaven and inquire about the investigation situation, just saw Baoxie Zhuoren, who said the Tendo Family was the mastermind behind the scenes.

"Baoxie Third Officer, this old man asks himself that I have not treated you poorly; why do you slander the Tendo Family, saying the Tendo Family is the mastermind who instructed you to use Heaven's Ladder to fire at Scorpio?"

"Treated me not poorly? Hohoho, I offered five hundred million, you said fifty million, I agreed, and what happened? Your Tendo Family only gave me five million; I called to ask if it was a wrong transfer, and was mocked by your people; you damn..."

Behind him was a pile of elegant Tokyo vulgarities.

"What's going on?"

Tenkō Chikunojō blackened his face, looking at Tenkō Kazumitsu, who was wrapping bandages on both hands.

"I..."

Tenkō Kazumitsu did not know how to explain; is slandering the other party slander?

This is impossible; by now, at this extent, even Baoxie Zhuoren's underwear would probably be investigated.

His own matter of taking kickbacks simply could not be concealed.

Thus, this person chose to tell the truth.

"You..."

His idea was verified; Tenkō Chikunojō, this old and deep-calculating politician, almost choked for breath.

Various moves could have hidden in the dark to watch the situation develop.

But because of his stupid grandson's stupid behavior of taking kickbacks, it led to the equally stupid Baoxie Zhuoren doing the big stupid thing of holding up the Tendo Family's big banner, inducing a group of stupid soldiers to attack Heaven's Ladder, and using Heaven's Ladder to fire at Scorpio, forcing him to jump back into the open to clean up this mess.

"I am very sorry, Holy Son of Heaven; this matter all started because of the Tendo Family..."

Tenkō Chikunojō absolutely did not mention why he prepared to give Baoxie Zhuoren a big sum of money, but directly apologized to the Holy Son of Heaven; however, the apology was not the point; the point was that he began to report the Tendo Family's list of connections in the army.

The art of politics lies in compromise, and this is what must be paid as a price to calm the incident after doing stupid things that should not be done on the political level.

If resigning from the position of Advisor before was just a small skirmish, then now this connection list he actively reported to the Holy Son of Heaven was a major bleeding.

Even if this is not all the connections, as long as the Holy Son of Heaven follows the list and replaces the people on it one by one with his own people, the Tendo Family's influence on the army will definitely greatly decrease.

But this must be handed over; otherwise, just the Tendo Family's name could induce a group of soldiers to attack Heaven's Ladder, so if he himself appeared in person, could he not call out and replace the Holy Son of Heaven?

Some things are not about whether you can do them, but whether you have the ability to do them; the Holy Son of Heaven is a student he taught; although somewhat naive, he also has the appearance of a wise ruler.

"Lord Chikunojō, why must you do this?"

Look, once the list was handed over, the Young Holy Emperor's attitude immediately softened.

However, dealing with the Holy Emperor isn't enough, because...

Beside her, there's an even more fatal existence, a Saiyan boy from a different world.

Tendo Chikunojō merely paused for a moment, then walked straight up to Broly.

With a thud, the old man dropped to his knees, knocking his head against the ground.

"Broli-sama, this matter is indeed the fault of my Tendo Family. I feel ashamed for nearly harming your wife. If you need a target to vent on, then this old man is willing to pay with his life."

Facing a terrifying existence that embodies supreme power, it is very difficult to judge by common sense.

However, based on the previously gathered intelligence on the Saiyan boy, Tendo Chikunojō was willing to bet that the other party was a reasonable person.

At this moment, he retreated to advance, proactively admitting his mistake; kill or carve, his old life was placed right before him. If the other party really wanted to kill, he would just kill him, which would count as minimizing losses.

Tendo Kazumitsu, this grandson, is a huge piece of trash, but as the Tendo Family Head, he had no choice but to consider the Tendo Family's future.

"I have a question."

After understanding the reason behind the attack, Broly's heart was filled with doubt rather than furious emotion.

"This matter has nothing to do with Scorpio, so why did they come to attack Scorpio?"

After Tendo Chikunojō knelt before him, the Saiyan boy voiced the confusion in his heart.

"He probably wanted to provoke Scorpio, provoke you, make Scorpio or you attack the Tokyo Safe Zone, then frame the Tendo Family, making the Tendo Family pay the price."

"But Scorpio was just sleeping in the Old Port District, and I was just accompanying her. Why must we be used as tools for retaliation against your Tendo Family?"

"In this world, many things have no 'why'; there is only whether they are needed or not.

And Scorpio, as a Gastrea, is naturally regarded with hostility by humans.

This person just needed to utilize this hostility, falsely claim the Tendo Family's name, and pull a batch of willing soldiers from the army to go attack Heaven's Ladder.

As for attacking Scorpio, it wasn't actually necessary, but only Scorpio was the closest and most suitable, that's all."

Tendo Chikunojō fell silent for a moment, then answered Broly's question seriously.

"Then if I kill you, would that make him happy?"

"Yes."

"Good, you won't die."

Broly nodded, and the next instant, he arrived beside the man who had been babbling.

A slap flew out, and the youth who had been chattering non-stop had his head directly smashed to pieces.

Everyone present was startled, but no one said anything.

Broly left.

Tendo Chikunojō let out a long breath.

This hurdle should count as passed.

In the evening, a post titled 【This World Is Too Dangerous】 was uploaded to the Internet.

Inside the post, it conspicuously wrote:

【This world is too dangerous. My wife Scorpio is pitiful and helpless; she was just sleeping in place and got used by bad people. If my reaction hadn't been fast enough, she would probably have been attacked by the bad guys...

This world is too dangerous. I originally thought my wife was powerful and shouldn't be in any danger, but now I was wrong. This world actually has weapons like Heaven's Ladder that specialize in attacking my wife. It's really too dangerous...

This world is too dangerous. The time I can stay in this world to protect my wife is limited. If before I leave this dangerous world, my wife still cannot change her situation of being in peril, then I'll have to do something for her...

May I ask, where else in this world are there weapons like Heaven's Ladder?

May I ask, what other things in this world pose a threat to Zodiac Level Gastrea?】

"No way, little bro, are you doing abstract humor?"

The 【World Is Too Dangerous】 post Broly sent out quickly received replies below, and most people thought he was doing abstract humor.

After all, who would treat a Gastrea the size of a small mountain as their wife?

And who would believe they could block a cannonball fired from a Super Electromagnetic Cannon?

And who would ask netizens online which existences threaten Calamity-level Gastrea, with an attitude looking like they're ready to write them down and destroy those things?

Obviously, no one took Broly's online remarks seriously.

However, quite a few people did tell Broly which countries still have weapons like Heaven's Ladder.

Even someone mentioned the Big Ivan Nuclear Bomb, which is also a weapon that can threaten the Zodiac.

Broly noted them down one by one. Besides the countries owning high-power weapons, his online friend Miss Nightingale also told him that among the Civil Security recorded by the International Originator Supervisory Agency, ranked at the very top of the IP Ranking, there is a combination with a record of eliminating Zodiac-level Gastrea.

"Don't know the specifics of how they won, but Taurus and Virgo were indeed defeated by the IP Ranking first and second place Civil Security combinations."

"The IIOS Civil Security name list, got it. Nightingale, thanks for the reminder."

Tina Sprout did not know that because of her casual reminder, the International Originator Supervisory Agency's IP Ranking directly became a death list in the hands of the otherworldly Saiyan boy, which he could use at any time to conduct danger elimination according to the IP Ranking above.

Because of that shot from Heaven's Ladder, Broly began to feel anxiety over Scorpio's safety. To resolve this anxiety, he had to resolve the situations where Scorpio might encounter danger in this world. And if there was no better way.

Then, before leaving, proactively resolving some people or things in this world that might threaten Scorpio became the Saiyan boy's only choice.

Without a doubt, this world is currently in danger...
