Chapter 577: Unexpected Harvest

"Detected strong spiritual power field fluctuations appearing, level exceeding A?!"

Supernatural Countermeasures Bureau, Spiritual Power Search Platoon, the staff member sitting in front of the computer suddenly exclaimed.

"Where?"

The colleague temporarily resting with eyes closed next to him, upon hearing this, directly jumped up and asked.

"Location, near Hibiya High School."

"Where is there one?"

"Eh, just now there indeed appeared a strong spiritual power field reaction, strange."

"Could it be the spiritual power field detection device malfunctioned?"

"Uh, it's not that there isn't this possibility, after all it's a machine, but still report it up."

Just as the Search Platoon people were reporting the news of the strong spiritual power field appearance upward.

Hibiya High School, Broly stood on the Teaching Building, looking at the sky clouds that had been dispersed together by his own excessive force, fell silent for a while, then said to the white shadow ninja appearing behind him kneeling on one knee, looking like he was apologizing: "Today there is nice weather, let us go to the next place with a spirit existence, don't let a random evil spirit influence our mood."

He did not blame the white shadow ninja for finding an unreliable spirit, cleaned up his mood, and went to the next place.

Fortunately, the troublesome spirit body was not encountered again, after being taken by the white shadow ninja to the next discovered spirit body location, the found spirit body was unexpectedly easy to communicate with, the other party was an old lady ghost who wanted to find her dropped dentures.

Based on the information provided by the other party, with the help of two ninjas, spending some time, Broly finally found that set of dentures in a sewer.

Summoning a ball of water to wash clean, Broly returned the somewhat damaged dentures to the other party, and obtained the old lady spirit body's gratitude: "Good child, truly too grateful to you, if not for you helping find grandma's dentures, grandma wouldn't know how to eat meals from now on~"

No one knows how the other party dropped dentures on the road, just as the other party also didn't seem too clear about the matter that she herself was already a dead soul, when after thanking Broly she turned around and walked away to the other side, the old lady's figure dissipated bit by bit, some fragmented soul power then seemed to fly towards Broly this side with the wind.

Broly used Qi to wrap and gather these fragmented soul powers, soon obtaining a rice-grain-sized crystal body, compared to the soul crystal given by the hanging evil spirit, it was really a bit small, but there was a harvest, being sincerely thanked by the other party, still made Broly feel pretty good.

"Next one, next one~"

Broly urged the white shadow ninja, the white shadow ninja hurriedly took him running toward another street, Broly following behind ran about three streets, then saw his own ninja directly jump onto a building, and then stop at a somewhat old exhaust pipe.

"Where is the spirit body?"

Broly looked left and right, did not discover a spirit body, and asked it.

The white shadow ninja did not speak, only raised hand and pointed at the exhaust pipe.

The exhaust vent size, was just right for a person's head to be able to stretch inside, Broly also directly went up and poked his head in to look.

"Hah, hah..."

Then, he saw a big cat lying inside the exhaust pipe, upon seeing him it hissed at him.

"Meow, meow..."

But soon, faint kitten cries also rang out from inside the pipe, the calico big cat vigilantly glanced at the boy at the exhaust vent, then turned head and licked the three little kittens behind it, only its tongue passed directly through the three little kittens' bodies.

Obviously, that calico big cat was not alive, but a cat spirit body formed from a dead cat.

"So you also found a Hajime spirit ah, but, how can I know what its dying wish is?"

Broly pulled his head out from the exhaust vent, and asked the white shadow ninja behind him.

The white shadow ninja remained silent, it only obeyed master's commands to search for spirit bodies, as for whether the found spirit body was human or animal, and how to fulfill the other party's dying wish to obtain the other party's grateful soul power, that was not a summoned creature's business, this was what the master should consider.

"Hey~"

"Hah!"

"Do you have anything you need help with?"

Broly didn't care about the calico big cat's hissing inside the exhaust pipe, directly asked it.

One person one cat spirit, one high one low stared at each other, don't know if becoming a dead spirit cat made it more spiritual, the big cat's hissing at Broly gradually quieted down.

Its cat tongue licked its pink nose, moved its body aside revealing the three little kittens behind it, then made a soft sound and meowed once at the boy: "Meow~"

"You want me to bring your children out?"

"Meow."

"This is simple."

Broly had the black shadow ninja go down, but before it got close, the big cat hissed, all its fur also stood up.

The pure evil spirit aura on the black shadow ninja's body made it feel nervous, through hissing it wanted to scare away the approaching black shadow.

The black shadow ninja incarnated as a shadow poked its head out in the flue, blood-red pupils looking somewhat innocently at Broly at the pipe opening.

"Forget it, you come back, switch to white shadow ninja going up."

Broly called the black shadow ninja back, but had the white shadow ninja go down.

And this time, facing the approaching white humanoid figure, the big cat did not hiss.

Only somewhat vigilant, but until the white shadow ninja reached out a hand in the flue and lifted up all three kittens, the calico big cat did not make any move to attack the other party.

"Alright, your dying wish is already completed, you should become a Buddha and give me my reward."

Broly carried the three kittens out from the exhaust pipe that who knows how long had been abandoned, and demanded reward from the calico big cat that followed jumping out.

However, the big cat only coquettishly meowed at him, and stared wide-eyed at him.

"Wait, you wouldn't be wanting a free ride right?"

Broly originally wanted to ask this, but felt he shouldn't haggle with a Hajime.

"Forget it, feel like you probably don't have much soul energy either."

Just as he prepared to leave, the big cat walked over and bit his pant leg.

"You also want to be compressed into a crystal?"

Broly looked down at the Hajime spirit and asked, saw the big cat rub against his leg.

Then, returned to the little kittens' side, sat down, and meowed twice more at him.

"You want me to take them away?"

The three little kittens looked somewhat skinny, might also have been starved for a while, when carried out they meowed twice, but now lay on the ground looking powerless, about to ascend and follow the mother cat.

"Meow~"

The calico cat meowed at him, as if answering his question.

Broly thought for a moment, then still picked up the kitten.

One white, one calico, one black.

When being picked up, it let out a tiny meow.

Broly carried them and jumped down the building, went to a nearby convenience store to buy milk, tore a small opening, and fed the milk to the three kittens respectively.

The big cat that followed him downstairs watched this scene, as if its wish had been fulfilled; it drew close to the three kittens and let out a soft cry, its body gradually dissipating, transforming into pure spiritual power, most of it falling on the three kittens, a small portion given to Broly.

What surprised Broly somewhat was that the dissipating Hajime Spirit actually provided more soul energy than the Denture Old Lady Spirit; after gathering and crystallizing, it was fully half a fingernail in size.

Of course, compared to the Hanging Evil Spirit it still fell short.

And it also left behind...

Broly looked at the three little ones already snoring asleep on the ground, and felt troubled: "How should I handle you guys?"

In response, the Black Shadow Ninja pointed at the cooking pot sold in the convenience store; the meaning was very obvious — stew the three kittens in one pot and eat them, and this was also one of Broly's dark gluttonous thoughts, sensed by it.

But at the same time, the White Shadow Ninja blocked in front of the Black Shadow Ninja's pointing finger; if the Black Shadow Ninja represents dark, negative summons, then it represents light, positive summons; the Black Shadow Ninja sensed this master Broly's dark-side thoughts, while it sensed this master Broly's kind-side thoughts.

"Perhaps, I should find a willing owner to raise them."

Broly did not go back into the convenience store to buy a pot.

"Is there another spirit?"

He asked the White Shadow Ninja; after confirming there was no next discovered spirit, he picked up the three sleeping kittens and headed to the Supernatural Countermeasures Bureau Headquarters.

"Nothing was detected; no spiritual power residue was detected near Hibiya High School (how could ground people detect high-altitude energy), it might just be normal ley line energy fluctuation, this kind of thing has happened before..."

When Broly came to the Countermeasures Bureau Headquarters, he heard someone reporting to Director Shinguuji like this.

"Then pay a little attention to Hibiya High School's situation; for now we can only handle it this way."

Director Shinguuji dismissed the person, then saw Broly push the door open and enter.

"What happened?"

As the culprit who caused the strong spiritual field fluctuation to appear, Broly asked without any self-awareness.

"Nothing, just the Countermeasures Bureau's routine spiritual field monitoring work; but you, Broly, why did you come over here?"

On the night the boy joined the Countermeasures Bureau, the Tsuchimiya couple's attack incident occurred, which caused the Bureau's workload to surge.

And Jianshan Huangquan also took temporary leave; she also couldn't let the boy directly start working for the Countermeasures Bureau; unexpectedly, today this boy whose spiritual power can completely suppress higher-level spirits came over on his own initiative.

"It's like this, Director Shinguuji..."

"Just call me Sister Shobu."

"Director Shinguuji!"

"Hmm, alright, call me whatever you like, as long as you don't call me Auntie."

Shen Gongji Shobu, who tried to use a form of address to get closer to the boy, showed a helpless expression, then signaled the boy to continue.

"Didn't I already dissolve my Contract Spirit? Recently I wanted to find a new Contract Spirit target, and this morning while strolling on the street, I encountered a Hajime Spirit..."

Broly concealed the White Shadow Ninja's function, told the story of encountering the cat spirit on the street and helping it bring the kittens out of the exhaust pipe, and placed the three kittens on the office desk: "Can the Countermeasures Bureau adopt them?"

"This kid of yours really has good luck, to actually encounter a cat spirit that might become a Nekomata..."

【Probably the other party saw your heaven-defying spiritual power and thought entrusting the kittens to you was a better outcome; some stray cats are smart enough to stage accidents to scam human owners into taking them home to adopt.】

"According to what you say, these three kittens all have the potential to become spirit beasts; are you sure you want to hand them to the Countermeasures Bureau?"

"Handing them to the Countermeasures Bureau is the only way, because I also have no way to keep taking care of them."

Broly will leave this world; it's impossible that when he leaves, he would still bring three kittens along to leave.

Even if he were willing, the Crystal Palace would not allow it; besides Crystal Palace members, other living creatures cannot cross worlds through the Crystal Palace.

"Broly, did you forget, you still have the Isayama Family behind you?"

Shen Gongji Shobu reminded him; and kittens blessed by a mother cat spirit that nearly became a Nekomata are seedlings for spirit beast birth.

If raised well, producing a Nekomata group similar to the Izuna Family's pipe fox group is not impossible.

And this matter of taking advantage only flashed through Shen Gongji Shobu's mind before she rejected it; compared to this boy before her with heaven-defying spiritual talent, taking advantage of him not knowing the details would be worse than telling the truth.

This way she wouldn't offend him, and could maintain his good impression of the Countermeasures Bureau.

"Eh, does Sister Huangquan like cats?"

Broly asked in some surprise.

"Uh, I don't know if Xiao Huangquan likes cats, but cute things, most people probably wouldn't dislike."

Shen Gongji Shobu glanced to the side, at Nikaido Kiri who was spacing out looking at the three kittens on the desk, and said with certainty.

The aide's face had already shown an expression of wanting to raise them.

"However, these are stray kittens; they still need a physical cleaning done before people will like them more, Nikaido."

Shen Gongji Shobu called out to the aide beside her.

"Ah, Director, what is it?"

Nikaido Kiri reacted, hurriedly straightened up and replied.

"Could you please help take Broly this kid and the three kittens to the pet hospital? Checkup and vaccination costs go on the Countermeasures Bureau's account; if the Isayama Family doesn't keep these three kittens, then our Countermeasures Bureau will take over raising them."

"Okay, I'll go right now."

Nikaido Kiri was very motivated; before Broly could pick up the kittens on the desk, she volunteered to hold the kittens in her arms, found a cardboard box to put them in, and drove Broly to the pet hospital.

It was already 10 o'clock when Broly came over here; driving to the pet hospital and having the doctor examine the kittens took some time; Nikaido Kiri took Broly to eat lunch at a restaurant near the pet hospital, and it was nearly 1 o'clock when they returned to the pet hospital.

The pet hospital side had already finished work on the three kittens, including but not limited to defleaing, cleaning, and vaccination.

When Broly saw the three kittens again, they had been fed full and placed in a cat box; their fur was fluffy and clean, looking much better than their appearance in the morning.

"Miss Nikaido, if you like them, I'll give you one."

Broly took the cat box and said to the workplace beauty wearing an OL uniform beside him.

"Ah, that's not right, let's wait until Huangquan Miss says whether she wants to keep a cat or not."

Nikaido Kiri ultimately did not accept the kitten's gift, and drove Broly back to the Isayama Family home.

As luck would have it, when they arrived at this side of the Isayama Family home, Isayama Naraku's car also returned.

Broly, however, had learned in advance through the Ki Sense locked onto the girl that Isayama Huangquan was about to return home.

It's just that what Broly found somewhat unexpected was that another Capture Target acknowledged by the Crystal Palace was following beside the girl.

【Discovered new Capture Target, Tsuchimiya Kagura, current Happiness Value 0】

He carrying the cat box, and the girl carrying the girl's luggage, happened to meet right at the front door.

"Eh, Nikaido Miss, did you take Broly to buy a pet?"

Isayama Huangquan looked at the cat box in the boy's hands containing three little kittens, and asked with some surprise the Nikaido Kiri walking over together with the boy.
