Tokyo: Parasite

Chapter 368 138: Ambush

"There were a few good-for-nothings in the family who wanted to threaten my parents and force me to cooperate with the Iwasaki family. I cleared them out last night."

"As a deterrent, the bodies were chopped up and thrown into the Sea of ​​Japan. Am I not overdoing this?"

Kyoto Special Affairs Bureau.

It's lunch time, Kuroki Shinizumi said with a relaxed look on his face.

Takeshi Noguchi, who was sitting opposite him, put down his chopsticks.

Someone had reported this matter to him last night.

It's not that he doesn't trust Kuroki Shinizumi, but he is worried that Kuroki Shinizumi will be retaliated against, so there is a team protecting her around the clock. Even if there is no one to protect Noguchi Takeshi, they must ensure that there is someone around her.

"The Kuroki family can replace Iwasaki and create a large conglomerate like Mitsubishi. I will not interfere with these things, but I will not allow them to interfere with the arrangements of the Special Affairs Bureau and the war situation like the old family did."

"Even with such generous conditions, they are not satisfied?"

The future of these families had been decided and discussed long ago, but we didn’t expect that people who were dissatisfied with the status quo would appear so soon.

"I understand. For now, most people are satisfied. But it's not easy to make a fresh start. Over time, I can't guarantee that the Blackwood family won't become like the traditionalists and start trying to get involved in power and transcendence." Blackwood stirred the coffee in the cup. "They are not stupid. They think three steps ahead. In today's world, if they have money but no transcendence, they will only think that they will be bullied by others sooner or later."

Noguchi understood Kuroki's concerns.

The rules of this country have always been that financial power is integrated. Now with the addition of a supernatural person, the financial power can be checked within the rules. However, the advantage of the supernatural person is that he can ignore the rules. In the absence of rules, he can basically override the financial power. At this time, if the power is taken away by the supernatural person again, they will have no power to fight back against the Special Affairs Bureau.

Having been America's pigs for so long, they also felt that Chaofan was raising them like pigs and was going to cut their meat when they were fat.

Even Takeshi Noguchi did not deny it. After all, he did need financial support and the country needed to restore its economy. He could not guarantee that he would not take action against them later.

And he couldn't understand, if you could be cut by Amei in the past, why can't you be cut by us extraordinary people now?
Who is not cut off? Would you rather give it to outsiders than to your servants?
Although, he was not a person who was greedy for power and money from the beginning to the end.

But to protect the country and the people, we need extraordinary people. If we need extraordinary people, we need money and power to stabilize them, and this is unacceptable to the traditionalists.

The old family had no objection to ensuring the stability of Chaofan, but the prerequisite was that Chaofan had to accept their arrangements, which would lead to divisions within the Special Affairs Bureau and hinder command. Noguchi Takeshi was very clear about the consequences and had experienced them. Some orders were entirely for the benefit of a few people, and even worse, they would damage the interests of the Special Affairs Bureau.

Therefore, the contradiction between the two is irreconcilable.

Takeshi Noguchi has worked his way up from being the leader of the search team to the present, and has unknowingly gathered the hearts of many extraordinary people. He has to be this pillar even if he doesn't want to, otherwise he is worried that the next person will overturn everything he has done, causing all his previous efforts to go to waste.

He only had two favorite successors. One was Saga Toshiya, who had been his subordinate for a long time. After Takashima Yumi left, he gradually became his deputy and had good abilities in all aspects.

The second one is Guan Junyan, whose character is still in the process of maturing, but since returning from Iki Island, he has grown a lot, has great potential, and he probably has some secrets.

If Yumi Takashima hadn't left, there would probably still be a place for her.

"Most of the personnel have been sent out, right? You don't have many people, and many of them are new and can't be used. Nara is a strong force, and has become the banner of the traditional faction. The remaining forces outside will not let him fall so quickly."

Kuroki Shinizumi drank his coffee and stared at Noguchi Takeshi.

"Your plan to go to Nara must have been known to them. With such a great opportunity, are you using yourself as bait?"

Noguchi, who had just finished his meal, put down his chopsticks and said, "I will not underestimate any of my enemies, but I will not overestimate them either."

Noguchi's words didn't sound like an answer, but Kuroki still understood, and in his heart he had already sentenced Nara's extraordinaryness to death.

Noguchi must have been well prepared and had a lot of confidence before he went.

"Recently, there have been new discoveries in the genetic engineering of green monsters."

Kuroki Shinizumi has now basically retreated behind the scenes, taking charge of some research projects hosted by the Special Affairs Bureau.

"which aspect?"

"Tracing the source. Haha." Kuroki Shinquan felt a little dry in the mouth, picked up the coffee cup, but it was empty.

Noguchi handed his cup to her and she drank it in one gulp without hesitation.

"The joke you played on me before has come true. Those green monsters were indeed the same as our ancestors at a certain point in time, but their genes are extremely bloated, as if they were artificially fabricated."

"You know, I wasn't joking." Noguchi shook his head.

Hei Mu rolled his eyes at him speechlessly.

Is this the point?

"So, in the Age of Gods, the owner of the moon took some of the guys we call our ancestors to the moon, and then transformed them to adapt to the lunar environment. This story sounds unreliable, but it is the guess that is closest to the truth."

"Since the moon has an owner, what about other planets, or stars like the sun?"

Hei Mu looked at the dazzling sunlight outside the window, as if he was being glanced at by some high-altitude existence without any sense of sadness or joy.

It suddenly started snowing heavily in Miyagi Prefecture yesterday.

The sky is dark and there is no sunlight.

But it actually facilitated Kawakami's investigation.

However, he had been guarding the so-called headquarters' Chanxin Hall for two days and saw many people going in, but he did not find anyone special.

The young man inside also did not go out at all. He stayed inside and no one knew what he was doing.

Just when Kawakami was about to make a breakthrough from the local family, that guy finally walked out the door.

It just so happened that Kawakami borrowed a car from a kind-hearted person and was sure that the other party would not call the police, just in case the guy drove away and it would be difficult for him to follow him.

He followed the other person's car all the way to the outskirts of the city. The other person parked his car on the side of the road, and then he walked alone, stealthily across the snow, and into the snow-covered forest.

It's a good opportunity.

After checking his equipment, Kawakami followed in his footsteps and walked into the forest.

"They are really completely unvigilant." On the treetop, the wolf whispered playfully, and the voice was transmitted to the ears of the bear and the eagle through the headphones.

"We made so many arrangements, it's such a waste of expression." Xiong also shook his head, somewhat dissatisfied with Kawakami's performance.

Playing with prey is also a good form of entertainment.

Only Ying remained silent, staring at Kawakami blankly, as if he was somewhat uneasy.

"Okay, the target has entered the ambush circle, use the killing move directly, don't hold back, I don't want to know what his abilities are." The wolf's combat ability is quite average among the extraordinary people, basically at the bottom level. He is good at tracking and concealment, so the bear and the eagle are the ones who take action.

"Haha, I'm good at this. Eagle? Why don't you say anything? Are you ready?"

"Well, I'll take your orders."

"Good!"

The moment he heard the noise coming from above, Kawakami knew he had fallen into a trap.

He immediately spread the energy throughout his body to act as a protective shield, and at the same time took out the iron sand in his arms.

"Roar!"

"Clang!" Bang, swish!
Snowflakes flew across the ground, exposing the soil directly and forming a large, diffusive pit.

Several trees nearby had cracks in their neat rows and slid to the side.

Kawakami groaned and took the two men's fatal moves head-on. A trace of blood flowed from the corner of his mouth. He turned from defense to offense and threw the iron sand in his hand at the two figures that were close at hand.

"Iron Palm!"

He shouted in his mind.

Bang!
The iron sand in Kawakami's hand splashed out like shotgun flowers, spreading in an umbrella shape and covering the faces of Bear and Eagle.

"hiss!"

Both sides retreated and did not continue attacking.

There was a look of doubt in Xiong's eyes. He knew how much force he had used just now. He could have directly created a crater-like existence on the ground, but he could only make the opponent spit out blood? !
He knew how sharp the eagle was, but it didn't even scratch the corner of his clothes. The opponent's defense was too strong.

However, the iron sand sprinkled by Kawakami had little effect on him. The bear's abilities were mainly concentrated on his supernatural power and thick skin and flesh, which was quite like a combination of [super strength] and [rigid body].

The eagle looked much more embarrassed, with half of the mask he was wearing knocked off, revealing his mouth and nose.

There were also dense blood spots on his arms, bleeding non-stop, and he was shaking slightly.

"No wonder you dared to come right in. You have some skills, but it's not enough!"

The bear roared, and his body suddenly expanded. His clothes broke apart, revealing his specially made shorts. His entire body was almost all muscle.

"Bear Power!"

The bear pounced on Kawakami.

Eagle gave up the ground attack, took off into the air, staring at Kawakami and waiting for an opportunity to strike.

Kawakami felt a little jealous. This guy is much stronger than a bear.

Iron sand bullets are completely useless against such a thick-skinned guy.

Fortunately, two steel pipes had been taken out and iron bullets loaded into them. Taking advantage of the bear's chance to rush towards him, he quickly raised his hand and fired two iron balls at the bear's eyes.

Xiong didn't know that Kawakami was aiming at his eyes, but he knew that the other party would definitely try to attack his head, so he raised his hands and crossed them in front of him to block the two projectiles.

The bullet broke through his skin and flesh and sank into his blood, causing the bear to cry out in pain and his eyes turned red.

However, in order to launch these two projectiles, Kawakami missed the best opportunity to create distance and was blasted away by the bear.

Kawakami spit out a large amount of blood with a puff. The energy he hastily mobilized was ultimately unable to withstand such pure force. He was directly knocked flying, smashing a series of trees, leaving a bloody mark on the snow, and fell to the ground in a crooked state.

The eagle let out a long cry and swooped down towards him from the air.

Just as he was about to swing his claws, the dying Kawakami turned around suddenly and spat out an iron bullet from his mouth, which missed the eagle's forehead by a hair's breadth.

An intense dizziness and pain caused the eagle's sharp claws to deviate, and it missed Kawakami and fell heavily into the woods on the side.

Before Kawakami could catch his breath, the shaking of the ground became more and more obvious, and the snow piles accumulated on the nearby treetops fell down one after another. The bear was already rushing towards him.

boom!
Kawakami struggled to get up when a gunshot rang out, hitting his shoulder.

"Ha, it turns out that defense can't last long. If I had known this, I would have brought a few more guns and could have just sniped from a long distance." The wolf was overjoyed, and upon seeing this, he raised his pistol from the tree and continued to aim.

Feng!
Two bullets suddenly penetrated the tree he used as a cover, and one of them hit his arm. He cried out in pain and hid quickly.

The achievement is certainly good, but in comparison, life is more important. Anyway, I was shot once, and the rest will be left to them. If that person still gets away, I have done my best.

Kawakami was breathing heavily and the steel pipe he was holding was drifting unsteadily.

He wasn't sure whether he had hit the man who fired the shot, but the bigger threat now was the aggressive bear.

It's not over, right?

Kawakami took a deep breath, expelled the bullets from his body, stabilized the steel pipe, and then stuffed a large number of iron sand bullets into it.

The power is much greater than what he could generate directly with his hands.

There was a loud rumble, like thunder.

The countless iron sand bullets in the steel pipe contained Kawakami's anger, and they burst out like fireworks.

“Ahhhh!”

In the blink of an eye, the bear's hands were almost broken, not a piece of skin was intact, and the splattered blood spread all around.

A lot of iron sand bullets were embedded in the gaps and on his face.

At the same time as the launch, Kawakami gathered energy in his legs, jumped suddenly, and leaped more than ten meters in an attempt to escape.

"eagle!"

The bear seemed to be exhausted and no longer tried to chase, but instead raised its head and shouted.

Kawakami thought to himself that something was wrong, and sure enough, when he reached the highest point, he was entangled by an eagle.

The two of them started flying uncontrollably in one direction, looking very confused.

"Give me a shot." Eagle suddenly spoke when the two sides were fighting in the air.

Hearing this voice, Kawakami suddenly woke up and found that the mask on the other person's face had been shattered, revealing his face.

Even though it was covered in blood, he still recognized it at a glance.

"Tanaka!"

The person in front of him turned out to be his old colleague, Tanaka, whom he met at Nara Station and claimed that he was going to Akita Prefecture to do some business.

Now that he appears in this identity, there is a high probability that he is a member of the Anger Sect.

Why did he join the Cult of Anger? !
Doesn't he know that the person behind the Anger Sect is most likely the Sumitomo family, the big chaebol that they have criticized and denounced countless times?
"Do not talk nonsense!"

Tanaka shouted, leaving several wounds on Kawakami's body as he rolled over.

Even though Kawakami had a lot of questions to ask, he knew that now was not the time to talk. He gritted his teeth, threw a handful of iron sand from his sleeve, and then fired it directly at Tanaka's chest, instantly creating a wound that looked horrific, but was actually just flesh wounds.

"Very good. Don't come back. Just pretend we have never met. Next time we meet, I will not show any mercy."

Tanaka left these words, kicked Kawakami away, let out a long cry, and fell to the ground.

Kawakami landed safely with injuries all over his body, and then without stopping, he continued to leap towards the distance of the forest.

"Tanaka, have you betrayed your past too?"
