I planted a sacred tree in Tokyo.

Chapter 10 Plan
"An extraordinary being."

"We'll use this name for now."

Iori Kazuka wore a long face as her boss asked her to give an "explanation".

To be honest, she really didn't want to deal with these high-ranking officials; she'd much rather hunt down—no, she should say, pursue—that guy, Tanimura Watari, who had gained 'extraordinary powers'.

Iori Kazuka's family owns a martial arts school, and she has practiced karate since childhood, making her virtually invincible among her classmates.

Violence had become a part of her life.

As I grew up, I realized that there are limits to human potential, so I chose to enter a police academy.

The reason is simple: firearms represent greater violence, and she must have them in her hands.

"The extraordinary being who appeared in this incident, we will refer to as 'Mr. Three'."

"Currently, Mr. San has demonstrated abilities such as appearing 'out of thin air,' commanding 'evil spirits,' absorbing 'souls,' and bestowing 'extraordinary' qualities."

Police officers are human too; they also watch anime and read novels.

The extraordinary events that occurred in the 'Crippled Tooth Group' were analyzed by police officers who reviewed the surveillance footage. Not only the police, but also the high-ranking officials in the conference room could guess the information after watching it once.

The Night Parade of One Hundred Demons is a tradition in island nations, where beliefs in gods and ghosts have endured for centuries.

The way that "Mr. San" behaved was very much like the villainous behavior of "collecting souls" to do great things.

As Iori Kazuka explained, the projector's image remained fixed on the 'werewolf' who had stood up.

"This man's name is 'Tanimura Wataru,' he is 21 years old, and he was born in Adachi Ward."

After briefly introducing the other party's background, making these big shots understand that this person had an irreconcilable feud with the Defective Group, Iori Kazuka pressed the machine again.

"This was three hours ago,"

"The footage we filmed in Ayase-cho, 3-chome, at a restaurant belonging to the 'Residual Tooth Group'—"

The appearance of photos of the corpses of Fukutani, the 'villain' who died with his eyes wide open and four wounds running across his chest, and Shibukawa, whose head was violently torn off and whose spine was still hanging in the air, once again made many important figures' eyes light up.

Don't get me wrong, they don't have any quirks.

Rather, these corpses, in a very bloody manner, proved to them the existence of 'extraordinary power'!

“Look,”

"The deepest wound on the chest of this corpse reached a horrifying 5 centimeters, with the skin, muscles, bones, and internal organs all cleanly and neatly torn apart."

"No known wild beast could inflict such injuries!"

Even the strongest lions and tigers can't do that!

In biological terms, humans are classified as 'large animals'.

Although his muscle tissue density was low, his bone density was not bad. That 'fierce man' Fukuya was also a person who exercised regularly. Flesh and bones are not playdough. It would be easy for a lion or tiger to kill him, but to leave such a horrific scar on his chest was beyond the limits of normal living beings.

Whether it's a lion or a tiger, their truly deadly weapons are their sharp teeth; their claws are merely tools used to restrain their prey.

“This store did not have any surveillance equipment installed, but we have reason to believe that the murderer is Wataru Tanimura, who has obtained ‘supernatural powers’!”

This isn't hard to guess. After all, in the "Crippled Tooth Building," after "Mr. Three" tapped his forehead, Tanimura Wataru already underwent a "werewolf" transformation. Adding to this, the deceased Fukutani and Shibukawa both had grudges against him, making his motive and abilities crystal clear.

In fact,
After watching the surveillance footage.

Iori Kazuka immediately rushed to Ayase Town, having already anticipated this scene.

"At the same time, another team of ours has taken control of the rental house in Tanimura Ferry."

"A large number of distorted pieces of furniture were found there, presumably traces of experimental power, along with a key and rent money notes left in the entryway."

"All of this proves that while possessing extraordinary power, Tanimura Wataru still has a clear way of thinking."

The image freezes on the doorway of the rented house, showing a young man wearing a baseball cap that obscures his face as he leaves.

Extraordinary power!

With the evidence irrefutable, the important figures present were filled with excitement.

"Tanimura Ferry is an important citizen of our country."

"His killings are understandable."

The Chief Cabinet Secretary, seated at the top, slowly began to define the matter. It was only because the room was filled with his own people that the Chief Cabinet Secretary dared to speak so simply and bluntly.

"As long as we find the right method, we can establish friendly relations with Tanimura Watari and even bring him into the national department to cooperate with our research."

"Director Takeya, immediately protect this Tanimura Wataru. He is an important citizen of our island nation, and we cannot afford any mishap to him!"

That's right,

The murderer, Tanimura Wataru, is a citizen who needs 'protection'.

As for the dozens of people from the Remnant Tooth Group who died, so be it! They were just some scum of the underworld. Even if it were ordinary people who died, so what?
Who among those present wasn't a powerful figure whose mere words could determine the future of millions?

For them, human life is just a number on a report.

The most important thing is extraordinary power!

When something that only existed in fantasy suddenly appeared in reality, the first reaction of the important figures in the conference room was disbelief.

After repeated verification, it became:
ecstasy!

What do rich people want most?
Throughout history, countless emperors have answered this question with their actions.

Elixir of immortality, human sacrifice, wondrous tombs, alchemy, and belief in deities.
The people in this conference room inherited their ancestors' resources, spent most of their lives working their way up to this position, amassed great wealth, and watched millions of people experience joys and sorrows. Yet, as spring turns to autumn, they find themselves, like 'ordinary people,' gradually approaching the end of their lives.

How can they be satisfied with this?!
Whether it's the 'elixir of immortality' sought by emperors in the past or the 'human cryopreservation' of modern tycoons, both are driven by a greedy desire to seize time.

The bigwigs' eyes fell on the surveillance footage, on the person the Metropolitan Police Department referred to as 'Mr. San'.

The other party held up the stone in their hand and was absorbing the souls of the members of the Residual Tooth Group!
What was originally an extremely terrifying event, however, came to be seen by a powerful figure.

But it was a longing!
The soul does indeed exist.

So, can they also...?
"We will do our best. As for the Self-Defense Forces—"

Metropolitan Police Department Chief Inspector Takeya took over the conversation, looking at the Chief Cabinet Secretary, who held the most power.

Although the Self-Defense Forces members are weak and have almost no combat capability, their 'American equipment' is all purchased with real money and is much better than that of the Metropolitan Police Department.

Ideally, they would "invite" Tanimura Wataru to visit, and perhaps even make contact with "Mr. San." But as the Superintendent General of the Metropolitan Police Department, how could he not understand the principle of considering defeat before victory?
In the event of a fight, it's hard to say how effective the police's equipment will be.

After all, the other party is extraordinary, and we don't know what abilities they have; if it were that 'Mr. San', even guns and cannons would probably be ineffective.

The Crippled Tooth Group has proven that neither knives, clubs, nor bullets can harm those female 'evil spirits'. No, attacks only cause them to split apart.

Catching criminals is normal, but catching someone extraordinary is a first.

"I will have the Self-Defense Forces cooperate with you,"

The Chief Cabinet Secretary nodded.

"This matter is too important; I must report it to His Majesty the Prime Minister immediately."

"In addition, maintain confidentiality. Chairman Tanabashi, you must ensure that while maintaining confidentiality, you also coordinate with the local police headquarters."

The person named is the Chairman of the National Public Security Commission, who oversees public security efforts responsible for collecting, preventing, investigating, and combating anti-island crimes, including those involving extremist groups, religion, espionage, and terrorism.
The reason for specifically naming them is that there are many mixed-race people under the police force, and it's hard to say how many of them are American 'loyal dogs'.

If the United States receives the news, the Marines will airdrop into Adachi Ward.
American bastards are absolutely capable of doing something like that!
"Yes!"

Chairman Tanabashi knew that he had a bunch of 'Japanese-American hybrids' under his command, and nodded heavily.

---

"Yu, do you know how to do this question?"

While Tokyo's armed forces were rapidly converging on Adachi Ward, Yu Akihi was enjoying his high school life.

"Sorry, it may take a while."

Faced with the book handed to him by class president Nao, Akihi Yu gave a vague answer after reading the questions.

He really didn't know the answer to this question. Although he had finished high school before transmigrating, he had forgotten most of that knowledge. As for the memories of this body, they didn't seem to be able to answer the question either.

"That"

Nao then sat down in front of Akihi Yuu.

"I teach you."
