Tokyo people don't talk about Wude

Chapter 430, Section 427: The Path to Divinity (3)

After breaking through the tunnel, the convoy of six people continued to speed through the night, only to be met with another wave of pursuit.

The pursuers' target was clear. As the biker gang dwindled in number, they became even more convinced that the rider carrying the giant sword was Kamikaze VI.

"We can't let them get any closer to the altar! These people, life or death, must all be captured, especially that guy with the sword!"

Soon, two more drivers were shot down and lay on the ground groaning in pain.

The convoy had only four people left, and they were still quite a distance from Tokyo Tower. Although they had been speeding through the encirclement for nearly half an hour, most of the time they had been taking detours to shake off their pursuers, rather than heading straight towards their target.

However, the four were clearly not giving up. Three riders surrounded the rider carrying a giant sword, forming a three-protect-one turtle formation.

"Da da da--!"

Another burst of bullets came, and a rider, unable to dodge in time, screamed as he was shot off his motorcycle.

The convoy, which originally had nineteen people, now has only three left, which is truly the last gasp of their strength.

Ahead of the road, a ten-meter-long truck suddenly darted out, forming a roadblock.

The truck was much sturdier than the police car. Once the roadblock was set up, even if the three of them sped up to their limit and crashed into it, they wouldn't be able to budge the truck at all; they would only be courting death.

In other words, the end of their journey is just ahead.

However, the rider carrying the greatsword whispered, "You two did a good job. Stop for now."

"But what are you going to do?" asked Karasu Maiko.

“I have a way to get over there, I’ll use your move, ‘Aerial Dance,’” the sword-wielding rider said. “We’ll switch vehicles, and I’ll fly over the truck.”

"When did you learn this move?" Karasu Maiko asked in surprise.

"Heh, I haven't learned that," the sword-wielding rider chuckled.
"I just think it's worth a gamble, because the Holy Son was born to create miracles!"

Karasu Maiko paused for a moment, then nodded firmly: "Alright, let's change cars!"

The swordsman immediately arched his back, as if he were about to jump up.

Karasukawa Maiko did the same, and the two of them took off at the same time. The rider with the sword leaped onto the seat of the [Strike Eve] motorcycle, while Karasukawa Maiko was grabbed by the wrist by the other rider and pulled onto the back seat of his motorcycle.

The sword-wielding rider's snow-white motorcycle, after traveling a few meters forward, overturned and made a screeching sound.

Immediately, the motorcycle carrying Maiko Karasawa and another rider gradually slowed down and stopped fifty meters away from the truck, where it was quickly surrounded by several heavily armed soldiers.

The swordsman galloped off ahead, continuing his charge towards the truck.

"Stop! Are you crazy?!" The soldier standing on the truck shouting at the locomotive, which showed no signs of slowing down, was terrified.

However, when they were still more than ten meters away from the truck, the rider with the sword on his back decisively pressed a button on the dashboard, while lying on the back of the vehicle as if he was gathering strength.

"Boom--!"

Suddenly, blue-green flames, like those of a propeller, erupted from beneath the chassis of the [Strike Eve] motorcycle, and the entire vehicle seemed to be about to take flight.

"Not high enough!" The rider with the sword suddenly swerved the bike sharply and crashed diagonally into the wall of a building next to the road.

[He's really gone mad] Witnessing all this, the soldiers and police officers chasing him showed expressions of shock and disbelief.

However, the next moment, an even more dramatic scene unfolded.

The sword-wielding rider did not crash directly into the wall, but leaned back just before contacting it, pulling the front wheel high as if reining in a horse at the edge of a cliff.

To everyone's surprise, the motorcycle, propelled by its incredible speed and inertia, climbed right onto the wall and sped across it.

Although the process of riding the wall lasted for less than a second, it gave the motorcycle an upward acceleration, allowing it to take off from the ground using the [Strike Eve]'s built-in thrusters and leap five meters high, far exceeding the height of a large truck.

Under the bright, waning moon, the sword-wielding rider's long robes fluttered wildly in the wind, while the engine of his motorcycle roared menacingly, sounding like the neighing of a knight of the apocalypse.

He took his hands off the handlebars and spread his arms wide, seemingly enjoying the miracle of the moment.

The moonlight cast his shadow on the ground, creating a magnificent cross.

Time seemed to freeze at this moment, as if trying its best to preserve this magnificent miracle.

By the time everyone realized what was happening, the sword-wielding rider had already landed with a thud, twisted his vehicle a few times, and sped away.

It took the pursuing team another twenty minutes to catch up with the sword-wielding rider before they realized they had been tricked. The sword-wielding rider was not Kamikaze VI at all, but rather the pale-faced, dying Tenyu Yasuke.

After the convoy entered the tunnel, they secretly made some small moves according to Kagari Otonashi's plan.

They had Hong Zhongjin abandon the vehicle and hide under a manhole cover in the tunnel, while Tianyu Yejie took out a pre-made giant sword-shaped inflatable doll, opened the automatic inflation valve, and carried it on his back.

Due to the power outage and extremely poor visibility inside the tunnel, the enemy did not notice their subtle movements. Instead, they mistakenly identified Tenyu Yasuke, who was carrying an inflatable giant sword, as Kamikaze 6.

Once the convoy had left the tunnel and completely diverted the pursuers' attention, Hong Zhongjin emerged from the manhole and headed on foot toward Tokyo Tower.

After all, for the monster Red Ember, running on foot might not be much slower than riding a bicycle, and it could also navigate through narrow alleys and rugged paths, making it easier to break through the blockade.

By the time the pursuers realized the extent of their scheme, it was too late after they had captured Tianyu Yejie. Hong Zhongjin was nowhere to be found in the tunnel, and it was impossible to locate him again.

Guided by Kagari Otonashi, Red Core raced all the way to Tokyo Tower via the fastest route.

With the convoy drawing away most of the fire, Red Ember moved with impunity, encountering no obstacles whatsoever.

The red iron tower loomed larger and larger in his eyes, his target location now within reach.

Just as he jumped out of a window and landed in the alley, he heard a series of light footsteps all around him.

"Quick, hide!" Kagari Oto warned.

Sure enough, just as Hong Zhongjin slipped into the shadows, a man in a suit and sunglasses appeared at the alley entrance.

It's no surprise that he is Black Dragon Spy, an agent under the KJ organization.

As enhanced beings amplified by soul science, Black Dragon Spy possesses more acute senses and intuition than ordinary people.

At that moment, his intuition and perception told him that something was amiss in the alley.

He walked slowly into the alley, pulled out a pistol with one hand, and reached into his ear with the other to turn on the communication device, ready to sound an alarm at any moment.

If he discovers you, or if you kill him before he can react, he will attract more enemies, making it even more difficult to escape.

Hong Zhongjin stared intently at the spy, one hand reaching for the dagger at his side, preparing to throw it at his throat.

However, the next moment, another dark figure descended from the sky. Before the spy could react, the figure covered his mouth with one hand and pierced his ear with an ice pick with the other, piercing through the communication device hanging on his ear as well.

The dark figure did not stop there, but continued to stab the spy's head repeatedly with fluid movements until it had pierced seven or eight holes in the spy's head before stopping.

"Shh~" The shadowy figure pointed his index finger at the spy's lips, then dropped the body.

"..." Hong Zhongjin stepped out of the shadows and finally saw the true face of the black shadow.

This is a young man wearing a parkour hoodie and a white crow mask.

Upon seeing Hong Zhongjin, the masked youth slowly removed his mask, revealing a charming yet serene smile:
"Oh, still as pathetic as ever, you're such a pushover~"

This man was none other than Jirokichi Hisai, the former leader of the Flying Heroes Gang.

Hong Zhongjin drew his dagger and looked at him warily.

"Calm down, this is an ally," Kagari Otonashi quickly reminded him.

"Haha~ Don't get excited!" Hisai Jirokichi waved his hand and laughed, "I'm here to help you. After all, getting entangled with these bastards will be troublesome for you, won't it?"

"Is that so~" Hong Zhongjin chuckled lightly, strolled past Hisai Jirokichi, and left the alley.

"Hey, don't you have anything to ask?" Hisai Jirokichi patted his head and said with a helpless smile, "At least say thank you!"

“No,” Hong Zhongjin replied briefly.

Just after Hong Zhongjin and his group broke through the Millennium Bridge, the troop deployment around Tokyo Tower changed. As a result, the outer blockade line was also affected and quickly showed signs of collapse.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Jirokichi Hisai led his "New Flying Heroes" gang in, harassing and assassinating the guards around Tokyo Tower to pave the way for the "Ash Heroes".

"Oh, you've become so aloof~" Hisai Jirokichi shrugged.
"Well then, I can only wish you good luck. Don't let me down, you pushover!"

Despite knowing he would not get a response, he still waved to Hong Zhongjin and watched him walk toward Tokyo Tower until he disappeared from sight.
