Chapter 499 The advantage is mine!

The current situation can probably be described in one sentence: Our side is regrouping its troops.

There are three types of situations: the first is a pseudo-apocalypse where the situation is complicated but not yet urgent; the second is a world where specific characters can come up with specific solutions and countermeasures; and the last is a major battlefield that is in a critical moment and needs a large number of combat forces to support it.

The first type mainly refers to Haruhi Suzumiya's side, which seems the most troublesome, and in fact is the most troublesome... It can be said that at this stage, no matter how many capable people are sent there, it is basically like lambs to the slaughter.

Then just leave it alone!

First, let Yanzhu suffer, and let Jiaji bear the infamy.

Let Kyon suffer a little more, then Asahina suffer a little more, and then Koizumi Itsuki suffer a little more…

After all, releasing Haruhi Suzumiya from her own world could either make things better or worse; it could resolve many crises in an instant, or it could cause the universe to explode in a moment, rendering all efforts futile.

In short, the key is to delay, delay until the matter is resolved.

The second type, where a specific character's appearance can have a remarkable effect, refers to...?

The Dharma-ending Age.

Marunouchi Super Tall Building.

The television station is broadcasting the footage simultaneously.

"NINJA fans, make your choice!"

The resounding announcement, as loud as an eagle's, carried on the night wind throughout the city.

"You can choose to stay in this city and obey me, or pursue freedom and escape this city... or rebel against me with desire. You can choose on the spot."

After so openly revealing the dark truth about ninjas, the melancholic, blond-haired, blue-eyed man shook his cloak and uttered some astonishing words that almost no one would take seriously.

"But! If you are willing to obey me and swear allegiance to me... I swear in the name of the Six Stars of the Southern Dipper, and with my fist, that I will protect what you want to protect! Your wives, sons, daughters, lovers! Xin of the Six Stars of the Southern Dipper will protect them! No matter who they are, I will not allow them to touch a single hair on your family!"

Behind him were crimson ninjas, silver crows, genius hackers, short teachers… and a tall, upright girl.

Meanwhile, in Kyoto, thousands of miles away, a similar drama was unfolding that challenged the limits of common sense.

Hundreds and thousands of muscular mohawks, surrounding an exaggeratedly modified giant motorcycle, slowly emerged from the eerie and unsettling ancient battlefield, crushing all the bones in their path.

A haughty man leaned against the motorcycle. Even though it was pitch black at night, he exuded an imperial aura that was hard to look directly at.

"I am the Emperor of the Southern Dipper, the Holy Emperor Saosha."

His tone was extremely arrogant, and he declared loudly in a voice that everyone present could hear.

"I won't give you the right to refuse. If you resist, I'll kill you right here. Come on, choose... obedience, or death!"

The tone suggested that the entire city was his for the taking, and the Holy Emperor's eyes clearly showed satisfaction. This magnificent capital city, along with its distinctly different underground society... it was simply the perfect cross-shaped mausoleum.

Since that's the case, this place should belong to him, the born emperor; let him take it!
"Hmph, a lord? What a coward! Daring to call himself a lord! A mere soldier daring to stand in the way of a general?!"

Faced with the provocative remarks, the ninjas of the Punishment Film Company rioted, letting out angry cries, while a giant phoenix soared into the sky, flapped its wings and fell, stirring up ripples that shook the heavens and the earth, its cry echoing through the night sky.

"Come on! I'll show you that there's only one outcome for challenging this emperor—death!"

Violence begets violence; "one kill, many lives saved"—killing one person saves many lives. By killing a fool who indulges his desires and preys on the weak, he can save hundreds of lives that would otherwise have been taken by that person.

Whether it's a phoenix or a great eagle, this is the most authentic way to use the living fist technique in Nandou: to stain hands with blood, create a river of blood, and pile up thousands of corpses. Based on these sacrifices, order and peace are established for tens or millions of weak people.

What's needed to pacify this violent land is not naivety... but even greater violence.

Today, the Southern Crusade and the Holy Emperor's Army clash.

—In this bizarre and wonderful world, they were established simultaneously.

Using the Holy Emperor as a shield and the Martyr Star as a sword, they challenge all the ninjas in New Saitama City, and even the world of Dharma's decline, attracting the attention of all dark giants. All forces and ninjas vying for supremacy will inevitably have to deal with these two.

The pacification of chaos and the establishment of order under the rule of the Southern Dipper will be the first major hurdle after the descent of the Ninja Soul. It will be a deadly battle in a strange world, a battlefield devoid of romance and beauty.

Ninja vs. Warrior, Heretic vs. Emperor!

As the heavily polluted clouds of the degenerate age dissipated, two brilliant stars clashed against each other in the night sky.

Neither a traditional hero nor a noble king, but a monster warrior from the end of the century has arrived in this degenerate age.

The fierce battle between karate and Nanto Kenpo thus began.

At this very moment, in an ordinary, sunny city, a non-human war, beyond the comprehension of any modern nation, is unfolding in full swing.

On one side is Goliath, the biblical giant who has awakened from his slumber, a relic that acts entirely on its own, an existence that cannot be defeated by anyone other than a supreme being, and who runs rampant.

Meanwhile, the other side suddenly swung out a pair of scissors.

That seemingly ordinary slash, because of its master's countless trials and tribulations, became incredibly powerful and unstoppable. The power contained within the scissors was terrifying and left one breathless and powerless.

brush--

At the edge of the sky, countless flashes of light from explosions appeared. The dark clouds were dispersed by the shockwave, revealing the bright sunlight behind them. However, this light was blurred and indistinct due to the howling wind.

A continuous stream of red light traced arcs, and in the blink of an eye, the distorted airflow transformed into a scorching, blood-red gale, spreading in all directions.

An earthquake-like explosion resounded throughout the area, and large and small wounds appeared on the mountain-like monster's body. Despite being an ancient alchemical creation, Goliath let out an angry roar.

Several gigantic, black, humanoid noises, named "Karma-Noise," appeared simultaneously, along with hundreds or even thousands of ordinary noises, wreaking havoc on the ground. Those possessing phase difference barriers were left to the remaining Symphogear users to deal with.

"Let's go all out!"

Chris's crossbow transformed into a large crossbow, with two crystal-like arrows resting on it.

It's not an arrow aimed at noise, but an arrow shot into the sky, splitting in mid-air into bullets that increase exponentially.

—GIGA ZEPPELIN
The principle is exactly the same as that of military-grade arrow-shaped projectiles. But what if we recreated it using the power of Symphogear?

The rain of destruction transformed into a barrage of death arrows. Instead of tracing a parabola, countless arrows, suspended at their apex, seemed to suddenly remember Earth's gravity, and began to fall freely to the ground, much like needles piercing the ceiling of a ninja house.

There was no way to avoid it; the surrounding area was bombarded by countless arrows, which instantly suppressed the large group of Noise.

"—Wind Wheel Fire Slash! Don't even think about getting close!"

The first relic, Ame no Habakiri, was swirling rapidly in the hands of the dashing blue-haired warrior. Her exquisite skill unleashed a flurry of sword light, severing all the whips wielded by the noises.

With insufficient combat power, the need for the help of Symphogear warriors from a parallel world is extremely unpleasant for Kazanari Tsubasa, who considers herself the guardian of humanity's sword, and it only makes her work even harder.

"Roar--!"

Goliath gathered his power, and an enormous beam of light, seemingly capable of annihilating everything, shot out. The terrifying energy even ionized the surrounding air, creating a burning smell, and spewed out a breath like that of a fire dragon, enough to burn down half a city.

"Good timing!"

Regardless of whether the monster could understand her or not, Ryuko Matoi's lips curled up slightly, her fiery fighting spirit and steely battle intent soaring into the sky. She laughed heartily and charged forward into the breath.

In an instant, the crimson streaks on Ryuko's forehead transformed into sharp blades, and her black and red sailor uniform turned into a metal battle suit. Like a ship cleaving through the sea, her breath was effortlessly slashed into a V-shape by the incredibly sharp blades, despite the disproportionately large size difference between her and the sea.

As her breath dissipated, Ryuko Matoi appeared above Goliath's head, her incredibly powerful aura suddenly surging. She dramatically raised her right leg, and her right foot, clad in combat boots, launched a battle axe-style downward slash in an instant!

Boom boom boom boom boom!
A shockwave radiated outwards, visible to the naked eye. With a crisp cracking sound, half of the behemoth's horns, harder than special alloys, snapped off. Its head swayed slightly, but its ferocious eyes remained filled with boundless malice as it glared at the girls.

"Before Hibiki returns... Monster! I can fight you all day! Come on, let's fight!"

Even if we can't completely defeat them, suppressing them with force is enough.

The cheerful chirping of the scissors and the loud laughter of Ryuko echoed throughout the heavens and earth.

The first two scenarios only require simple troop deployment and the exchange of specific characters, which can achieve remarkable results. However, the last scenario is not so simple—these are "Gensokyo" and "Demon World".

In both worlds, unless you have a special skill, a unique ability, or are simply someone with superhuman combat power, you'll be of little use.

Take the Demon Realm, which needs the most powerful combat force, as an example. Counting all the worlds, there are only a handful of people who are qualified to join the battlefield, and one of them just happens to be available.

……

……

The scenery before my eyes changed rapidly, with crowds, streets, and cities flashing past below at an extremely fast pace.

The elven girl in red and black gothic attire, with the golden clock in her eyes spinning rapidly, her long bangs tousled by the wind and turning into shooting stars in the sky, stormed into the Chonggong family home. She showed no trace of her usual elegance, only a disheveled and unkempt appearance.

"Mio! Help...help!"

The instant she spoke, a mature woman with dark circles under her eyes appeared in front of Kurumi. Her dazzling silver hair was neatly tied back, making her look every bit the part of a typical office worker.

Seeing Kurumi in a panicked and incoherent state, a rare sight for her, Mio Takamiya couldn't help but wonder what had happened to make her, who could manipulate time, so disheveled.

Kurumi took a slow breath, calmed herself down, and transformed back into a pitiful, beautiful girl. She squeezed out two tears from the corners of her eyes, pretending to have been bullied, and began to sob softly…

"Crying, crying..."

"Alright, alright, I'll help you. What happened?"

Mio Takamiya looked at Kurumi Tokisaki, who was both her "older sister" and her "daughter," with amusement. She took Kurumi's hand, her bright eyes revealing a hint of anticipation and excitement.

There's a vandal...

Kurumi didn't reveal more because she knew that Takamiya already understood what Akira wanted to say.

"That is to say——"

Born as the strongest person in the world, yet destined by fate to live a peaceful life as a corporate slave, the second daughter of the Takamiya family has sensed some cause and effect—a premonition that she needs to fight with all her might for the first time ever.

Without showing any fear, Mio Takamiya curled the corners of her lips: "No one but me?"

If that's the case, then let's fight with all our might!

Lost in the bamboo forest, the Eternal Pavilion.

Deep within that secluded and tranquil bamboo forest, a place shrouded in mystery and whose origins are unknown, is, in the eyes of those in the know, nothing more than an unlicensed and unscrupulous medical clinic…

However, although there may be some harmless side effects, it is true that the doctors at Eientei have unparalleled medical skills, and there is no deception about it!
"Dr. Yagokoro! Help!"

A chestnut-haired girl wearing platinum armor rushed in, leaving deep dents in the ground beneath her feet.

The nurse at the clinic was also startled. Her long rabbit ears twitched, her eyes turned bloodshot, and she hurriedly looked at the patient, but then suddenly froze.

"Twins?"

Indeed, this time the patient and family member look exactly alike, except one is excessively weak and the other is excessively erratic.

Eirin Yagokoro's expression changed slightly.

The knowledgeable silver-haired Yuexian instantly sensed that something was amiss.

"Um……"

Rather than sisters, these two girls were essentially the same person with different souls, and the black crystals on their chests emitted a very peculiar aura…

He's an interesting patient.

After seeing the delinquent Hibiki being sent to a hospital bed, and with Eirin Yagokoro's doctor's spirit burning brightly, Hibiki Tachibana finally had a chance to breathe a sigh of relief.

Although it may seem unscientific and even quite mystical, the lunar doctor in front of us is actually a highly qualified person who is proficient in various cutting-edge theories, including quantum mechanics. With her help, we should be able to achieve the best results.

Taking advantage of this moment, Tachibana Hibiki turned her head to look at Yakumo Yukari, who was lying on the next hospital bed.

"Sister Zi, what exactly is this nightmare all about?"
