Chapter 604: Some Want to Pledge Allegiance to the Countermeasures Bureau, Some Want to Pledge Allegiance to the Black Shadow
Bringing her younger sister along, she left the Jubando embassy building and stood on the bustling Tokyo streets at night; Jino Setsuna was momentarily at a loss, not knowing where to go.
Her original plan was to challenge her father, completing the seizure of the Jubando head position; as long as she became the Spearhead of Jubando, all troubles would cease to be troubles.
However, the actual situation deviated from her expectations; of course, if that final slash had gone straight down, it would have returned to her expected trajectory, but in her younger sister's eyes, she would likely have become a patricide as well.
And whether her warning before leaving could actually achieve the corresponding effect, making Jubando not come looking for trouble to chase and kill them afterward, remained unknown.
"Big sister, what's wrong?"
Because she had come out without wearing shoes, Jino Shizuru was now being carried piggyback on her older sister's back rather forcefully; she tilted her head and looked at her sister, asking.
"Nothing, I'm just thinking about where we should go next."
Not dealing the killing blow was already a fact; Jino Setsuna did not regret the decision to spare her father just now.
The younger sister on her back was her light; everything she did was to protect this ray of light.
"Then, big sister, have you decided?"
"Mm."
Jino Setsuna nodded, and carrying her younger sister on her back, headed in the direction of the Isayama Family Seaside Villa.
"Ding-dong~"
The doorbell rang; Jianshan Huangquan came out to open the door and saw Jino Setsuna leading a cute girl by the hand, standing at the front door with some bloodstains on her body.
"Setsuna-nee, are you injured?!"
"Already recovered."
Jino Setsuna unzipped her leather jacket, revealing the intact skin underneath to the girl before her.
"So, you succeeded; this is your younger sister Shizuru?"
"First meeting; these past days, my older sister has been in your care."
Jino Shizuru was very polite, bowing to greet Jianshan Huangquan before her.
And on the way over, her older sister had already told her about Jianshan Huangquan and the others.
"Truly a polite child."
Jianshan Huangquan looked at the girl's lowered, soft head and her hands got a bit itchy, but hindered by it being their first meeting, she couldn't bring herself to make a move on her younger sister right in front of Setsuna-nee, who was also a sister-con; for example, using the head-pat flirtation trick.
"My younger sister and I temporarily have nowhere to go; I wonder if it's possible..."
"Come in quickly!"
Jianshan Huangquan didn't wait for Jino Setsuna to finish speaking, just pulled her and the girl beside her into the house.
"My feet are a bit dirty!"
Jino Shizuru cried out, but she had already left a black footprint on the wooden floor at the entrance.
"We left in a bit of a rush; I forgot to put shoes on my younger sister."
Jino Setsuna explained.
"No problem, just go wash up in the toilet; conveniently, Setsuna-nee, you're also covered in filth, why not go take a shower too? I'll go get you both a change of clothes."
"Thank you."
Jino Setsuna gave her thanks, then took her younger sister to the bathroom; by the time they had washed clean and walked out, Jianshan Huangquan and the others were already sitting in the living room outside waiting for them.
"Tell us about tonight's situation."
Isayama Meifu spoke.
Before the Jino sisters came out, she had already learned from her cousin that the other party had nowhere to go.
And honestly speaking, a situation like Jino Setsuna's often spells trouble.
She reminded her cousin, so that's why there's this three-hall joint interrogation situation now.
Jino Setsuna also knew her own situation, and didn't conceal it either, briefly recounting what happened inside the Jubando embassy building.
"Your father didn't die, and by your Jubando's rules, he'll very likely dispatch people to come find trouble."
Isayama Meifu's words were reserved; dispatching people to come kill his own biological daughter was also possible.
"Mm."
Jino Setsuna didn't deny it; she also felt this was possible.
"You also understand the Isayama Family's current situation; my uncle is busy with the Great Calamity matter, so clashing with Jubando at such a time is really somewhat difficult."
Jianshan Huangquan didn't express an opinion on her cousin's words; although she was very willing to help Jino Setsuna and her younger sister, if it involved the Isayama Family, she couldn't make the decision either.
Because sheltering this pair of sisters might bring great trouble to the Isayama Family, and even more likely bring trouble to her father.
"I know, so I already have an idea; I only hope the Isayama Family can temporarily take in my younger sister Shizuru, letting her stay here."
"Can you tell us your idea?"
Isayama Meifu asked.
"This is the sword that hosts Hei Four Girls."
Jino Setsuna placed a broken sword on the table.
"Hei Four Girls, I've heard of him; you want to use this to exchange for the Isayama Family's protection?
But this isn't a matter of wanting or not, it's a matter of whether the Isayama Family can do it."
Isayama Meifu reminded her.
"No, this is an investiture."
Jino Setsuna shook her head.
"An investiture to Onmyodo."
On the way over here, she had already thought it through; wanting to secure protection under the uncertain condition of whether her father would make a move on her and her younger sister afterward.
And Jubando's enemy is the optimal target to pledge allegiance to; coincidentally, she also has a good private relationship with the Isayama Family.
"I want to show sincerity to Onmyodo as a whole through Uncle Nara, and the one I want to defect to isn't a certain family of Onmyodo, but the Supernatural Countermeasures Bureau. Huangquan, I hope you can introduce me to Director Shinguuji of the Countermeasures Bureau..."
With her strength that allowed her to kill her way through the Jubando's Tokyo headquarters, although this strength contained some moisture, for the Countermeasures Bureau which has always been short on manpower, she is obviously also a very good talent.
And while the Countermeasures Bureau's overt strength may be insufficient, behind it stands the Tsuchimikado Family of Onmyodo, and Jubando presumably wouldn't dare act rashly.
As the former Jubando Heir, Jino Setsuna is still relatively clear on the situation inside; even her father doesn't want to easily start another war with Onmyodo before being prepared.
So, this idea of using Black Shinobu as sincerity, her own ability as chips, defecting to the Countermeasures Bureau in exchange for asylum, is completely feasible, especially with the Isayama Family acting as Mediator and guarantor.
And the Isayama Family, Jino Setsuna has deeply contacted; whether it's the Current Head or the future next Head Huangquan, they are not the kind of people who betray trust and abandon righteousness; they are trustworthy.
"Director Shinguuji will definitely welcome Sister Setsuna joining the Countermeasures Bureau."
After hearing Jino Setsuna's idea of defecting to Onmyodo and joining the Countermeasures Bureau, the atmosphere in the living room relaxed, and regarding the matter of being the middleman to connect things, Isayama Huangquan directly agreed.
It's just that she couldn't help in a big way due to insufficient ability, but within what she could do, Isayama Huangquan was willing to help Jino Setsuna.
"After injecting that potion, your strength actually increased that much?"
Isayama Meifu inquired about the potion matter.
"Sister Setsuna, you don't have any uncomfortable places, right?"
Broly also interjected to ask.
Jino Setsuna answered them one by one, and her tone was full of gratitude toward the white shadow ninja who gave her the medicine and helped her at the critical moment.
In her final contingency plan, if the Countermeasures Bureau also couldn't shelter her and her younger sister, then the white shadow ninja would be her last resort for help.
Broly recorded Jino Setsuna's experience using the Gene Evolution Agent, and after finishing recording said he was going to the toilet; in the toilet he summoned a water element, ordered it to throw waterballs into the toilet if anyone approached to pretend he was defecating, while his main body came outside.
The white shadow ninja emerged from the light cast on the ground by the streetlight; Broly directly asked it: "Did you go help tonight?"
【Hmm.】
The white shadow ninja nodded its head, seeming somewhat apprehensive about whether it had done something superfluous.
"You did well."
Because Jino Setsuna's relationship with him was average, and she hadn't actively requested his help, Broly also had no intention of actively helping; but for the white shadow ninja's action of actively going to help her tonight, he expressed affirmation.
Because Jino Setsuna returned alive, and let him obtain the result of a human injecting the Gene Evolution Agent with no adverse reactions.
Receiving the master's praise, the white shadow ninja lowered its head; after a while, it took out the things from its pocket that Jino Setsuna had given it after leaving the embassy building with her younger sister, and handed them to the master.
"This is?"
Broly looked at the crystal in the white shadow ninja's hand and couldn't help but ask.
【Killing Stone.】
The white shadow ninja held up a sign to answer.
"Eh, this is the Killing Stone?"
Broly pinched the red crystal and examined it; this thing was just like a red pebble.
Very round and smooth, and icy cool; from the outside basically no special place could be seen.
He thought for a bit, then sent his Qi over; and at the moment of contact with Broly's Qi, the Killing Stone emitted a dazzling red light.
A strand of soul power that was very tyrannical compared to ordinary people surged into Broly's consciousness along his Qi.
The Killing Stone began to stir, using the desires deep in the heart of the person using it without permission, yet exerting its inherent power to lead people to evil fall.
The Saiyan boy's heart began to be read; Broly could feel the faint power transmitted into his body from the red stone in his hand, seemingly doing something to him, but he didn't stop it either, because he also wanted to know what this thing ultimately wanted to do.
【Sister Huangquan, Sister Kagura, are you willing to become my wives and join my Crystal Palace?】
After a bout of exploration, the Killing Stone finally read the desire deep in the heart of the Saiyan boy in this world who didn't resist its actions at all.
【Ah, so many Happiness Values, so many Happiness Points, wahahaha...】
Broly's spirit body with a black face watched the Killing Stone construct a false scene in the depths of his heart; after the fantasy Isayama Huangquan and Tsuchimiya Kagura agreed to become wives, the false self was laughing foolishly because of gaining a large amount of Happiness Points.
"I would indeed be happy, but absolutely wouldn't laugh like that."
Broly's spirit consciousness body directly slapped to extinction the mental illusion constructed by the Killing Stone.
But the power of the extinguished Killing Stone quickly entangled his spirit consciousness body again.
Outside, the expression on Broly's face became strange.
【Master, what's wrong?】
The white shadow ninja sensed the abnormality and couldn't help but hold up a sign before him to ask.
"This thing says it will give me the martial force to conquer two wives; as long as I'm willing to merge with it."
Broly explained in one sentence.
【?】
The white shadow ninja then used a question mark to express its doubt.
Their own master, still needs martial force?
"If pure martial force could capture wives and make wives happy, would I need to do all these things?"
For the feeling brought by first touching the Killing Stone, Broly's evaluation was a clown stone; especially when this stone discovered he had no intention of fusing with it, it began using its own weak power to invade his consciousness, yet couldn't invade no matter what, like an ant trying to shake a big tree.
And after discovering this point, this thing changed tactics, beginning to play in his consciousness scenes of human malice in this world.
What cold weapon wars, hot weapon wars, Broly found a bit boring; this was like a person using a horror movie to scare a real ghost.
The war scenes created by human malice are cruel; to general people they would produce physiological discomfort, even psychological shadows, but in the eyes of Saiyans.
Yo he, isn't this just our daily life of conquering planets?
Cold weapon killing, does a fist count as a cold weapon? Using energy bullets to turn people into flying ash, isn't that more powerful than incendiary bombs?
Although Broly hasn't done much of the normal Saiyan behavior of conquering worlds (planets), the Killing Stone using human wars (malice) to try to pollute his consciousness... hmm, is this the meaning of emerging from mud unstained?
After observing for a while the mental illusion of this world's human history wars in his brain, discovering the Killing Stone had no new tricks, the somewhat bored Broly threw it back to the white shadow ninja.
【Master?】
"This counts as a plot item; might need to use it later."
Broly thought for a moment, then added another sentence.
"For example, if that Jubando actually dares to come cause unnecessary trouble for me, you throw this thing back to that Organization, then have the Shadow go over and solve them."
Although solving it directly isn't impossible, it would easily collapse the character persona the Twin Shinobi are currently Disguising as; Broly felt the Killing Stone's biggest Function was probably to provide his Summons with an Openly justifiable reason to solve a certain person or a certain Organization.
The White Shadow Ninja nodded, put away the Killing Stone, and seeing its master had no other orders, it once again merged into the Streetlight light.
To the master, the Jubando seemingly didn't even have the Qualification to act as a background extra villain; they probably belonged to the role of a Background Board.
As Long As they dare Obstruct the training Plot that has stepped onto the right track, just have the Shadow solve them all; the White Shadow Ninja, Magic But, went to Notify the Black Shadow Ninja.
As For what the Black Shadow Ninja is doing at this time?
It was currently subduing Evil Spirits in the Tokyo surrounding areas, as extras needed for the next Debut, to serve as sparring targets for the master's sisters to Verify the periodic training results.
"Lord Black Shadow, I am Sanzu Kawahiro, bringing a group of Evil Spirits to pledge allegiance to you; please accept this humble one and the Gift this humble one brings for you."
At this moment, the youth transformed from the Spirit Butterfly suddenly appeared before the Black Shadow Ninja; he politely bowed his Body.
And behind him, Dense and numerous, was a group of Sinful Souls he had Lured over using the Killing Stone.
