I'm the Demon King in Marvel

Chapter 284 Ryukyu before Dawn
It was already late in the morning, and the noise of Ryukyu Naha Port faded away under the night sky. The sea breeze blew quietly, the waves swayed gently, and everything seemed exceptionally peaceful.

The night market in the port area was filled with the smell of fireworks mixed with the aroma of various foods, and the occasional cheers of joy from the guests. What happened in Tokyo made the entire island nation immersed in grief, but Ryukyu was an exception.

After the Mold Fleet left, Ryukyu seemed to have gotten rid of some of its restraints, and the air became a lot lighter.

Seeing this, Chie Aragaki, who was running all the way south, breathed a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, she was quite fast and got ahead of the Japanese chaebol.

Chie Aragaki took a look at the peaceful Naha Port, turned around and rushed towards the floating island corresponding to the port, returning to her hometown, Kume Village.

She did not wake up the villagers, but instead rushed around the island, carving out a barrier on her own.

In the ninja world, similar barriers can only be found in large ninja villages. Smaller ninja villages are not only unable to maintain them, but also have no ability to carve them.

As the "perfect jinchūriki", Chie Aragaki has no shortage of chakra and has complete supporting techniques in her memory, so carving a barrier covering Kume Village is no problem for her.

No matter how the situation develops next, Chie Aragaki must first ensure the safety of her fellow villagers. This is probably the local sentiment in the Chinese genes that has been affecting her.

By the time she had finished carving the barrier, it was already past three in the morning, the darkest hour of the night. The night market at Naha Port was drawing to a close, and the drunkards were returning home or heading to entertainment venues where they could stay overnight to continue their next activity.

Suddenly, more than ten passenger ships appeared on the sea, belonging to Sumitomo, Mitsui and Mitsubishi Group. The ships were filled with homeless people who they had swindled and kidnapped from all over the island country in the past few days.

"It seems that the story about building a factory in Ryukyu is correct. I saw passenger ships from the Mitsui and Mitsubishi Groups. With so many ships, they must be carrying a lot of workers and supplies."

On a passenger ship of the Sumitomo Group, a homeless man took the opportunity of going to the toilet to run to the side of the ship and looked around. He found passenger ships of two other groups, so he ran back to the cabin to show off to the homeless people on the same ship.

"Are the three major financial groups joining forces? How big a factory will they build? Why haven't I heard about this in the news before?"

"Baga, this must be a special plan by the bosses of the consortium. It must be kept secret!"

"Who cares? As long as I have a job and can get paid on time, I can go home after working for a year or two."

When talking about going home, there is hope in the eyes of all the homeless people.

The homeless people in the island countries are similar to those in the United States. They are all forced to become homeless after financial bankruptcy. However, American society does not have the family attachment in Eastern culture. Children generally separate from their parents after adulthood, and parents have no obligations to their adult children. As a result, the homeless people in America do not have the obsession with family that the homeless people in the island countries have.

If you have the dignity to go home and have a home to return to, who would want to wander around as a homeless person?

It’s just that because the island nation’s economy has been in a downturn for many years, it has become difficult for low-skilled workers to find jobs and get a stable income.

Apart from begging and scavenging, homeless people can only look for odd jobs when possible. After making money, they go to play pachinko. If they lose, they go back to the bridge hole and continue to hide there. If they win, they eat and drink to their heart's content for a few days, living in a daze.

Now that the three major conglomerates have joined forces to build a factory, it must be on a large scale and the construction period will take at least several years, so they will have stable income for several years.

Suddenly I had hope in life again.

Unfortunately, these homeless people cannot run to other passenger ships, otherwise they would definitely be able to find out why the homeless people on other ships were lured here.

That’s right, the homeless people on so many passenger ships did not board the ships with the same purpose. Some were deceived into working, some were deceived into being volunteers, and the reasons were varied. Anyway, the three major consortiums only wanted these people to board the ships and voluntarily land in Ryukyu.

After all, how can loading and unloading be more convenient than letting the cargo get on and off the ship? The heads of the local Ryukyu companies who had been contacted in advance were waiting at the port, and as soon as the passenger ship arrived, they immediately notified the port duty personnel to arrange the dispatch.

Naha Port consists of three parts: Naha Naval Port, Tomari Port, and Naha New Port. The Sumiyoshi and Kakakihana areas on the south bank of the Kuniba River are military ports dedicated to fungi.

The place where the three major conglomerates docked this time was Ansha Port, which was repaired after the island country retook Ryukyu, also known as Naha New Port.

"Master, I can see clearly that several fleets of the Mold have all left the port."

The person in charge of the Iwasaki family's shipping company in Ryukyu is Iwasaki Nagayoshi's confidant. Although their family initially opened a trading company in Osaka, the real symbol of their rise was the shipping industry.

Historically, Naha Port has been an important trading port in the western Pacific Ocean, especially an important transit point in ancient Sino-Japanese trade. The Iwasaki family's shipping company has been operating in Naha Port for more than a hundred years.

After World War II, mold settled in. Although the Japanese had to look at the face of the father, how could an island country survive and develop if it did not engage in ocean trade? Therefore, the Iwasaki family's shipping company still had considerable strength.

After receiving a satellite call from Iwasaki Nagayoshi, the head of the branch went to the high-rise building in the port area in person to observe the movements of the Mold Fleet.

Thanks to the small size of Naha, with a land area of ​​only 38 square kilometers, he was able to see the information he wanted by standing on the top floor of his own shipping company with a telescope.

The Fungus Fleet headed north tonight in a hurry and had no time to cover up, so it was easily seen by those who were interested.

"Very good, without them here, we can be more confident in our actions." Iwasaki Nagashi's eyes were burning.

Sumitomo Masaya and Mitsui Hisaichi who were beside him were also secretly happy.

What happened in Tokyo tonight undoubtedly stimulated these three old guys. If they had not been busy preparing for the sacrificial ceremony in recent days, they might have gone to Tokyo on business. That would have been a big punishment!
Even His Majesty the Emperor and the cabinet ministers have all lost contact, and the wealthy areas of Tokyo have become the hardest hit areas. If they were also in Tokyo, they would probably be finished.

Where is the chance to pursue extraordinary powers?
The three poor old guys had no idea that the nine-tailed fox they were expecting had no intention of responding to them at all, and was currently searching the entire island for brave tools, with no intention of coming back to visit them.

The three old guys were like ordinary old men who were fooled by health product salesmen. With the extravagant hope of immortality, they prepared everything according to the way Shida Kiyomi casually relayed it, just hoping that the great nine-tailed fox could give them strength.

Although the nine-tailed fox only showed up once in the Tokyo Incident, the whole world believed that the mastermind behind the Tokyo Incident was Tamamonomae, who was said to have a grudge against the Emperor in the island country's legend.

Otherwise, why would the demons and monsters come to attack Tokyo for no reason?
Why did the strange giant tree destroy the Imperial Palace?

Why would the nine-tailed fox stay at the top of the giant tree and finally take away the strange fruit that looked unusual at first glance?
Everything, one by one, was clearly arranged by the nine-tailed fox!

The logic is coherent and convincing.

Anyway, the five major countries that watched the whole process believed this conclusion. Chie Aragaki, who was given power by the nine-tailed fox, also firmly believed this, and so did the three well-informed old chaebols.

From a certain perspective, their conclusion is correct.

The Big Devil said: That’s right, the mastermind behind this is the hateful nine-tailed fox!
Although the Nine-Tailed Fox was the mastermind behind the Tokyo incident, she allowed the three old guys to see her powerful supernatural powers.

If someone dies in Tokyo, what does it have to do with them?

All they want is to gain the extraordinary power of immortality.
