A person in Tokyo becomes a demon god

Chapter 20 Can’t do it
"That girl's school uniform—"

"From our school?"

"Wow, Superman was right beside me all along!"

Near the sports field of Nakano High School, the college students who had run away did not go far, but instead took out their phones to watch the game and live stream it: when in doubt, live streaming is one of the characteristics of this era.

Why are girls from our school fighting with girls from other schools?

"Who knows, maybe it's some kind of 'national domination' competition."

Besides live streaming, many male and female college students began to try to analyze the situation.

"wrong,"

A male student from Nakano High School suggested that...

"You guys forgot, that guy from the rival school just threatened to kill someone!"

Without a doubt, this is not a competition, but rather:

"The Holy Grail War!"

As he spoke, the boy kept zooming in on his phone camera, trying to find the 'Command Seals' on the back of the other person's hand. Unfortunately, the two college students in the midst of the battle were too fast, and the phone camera could only capture blurry afterimages.

"My God, Yamoto is actually this amazing?"

On the other side, pulling her friend Asari aside, the female college student, who looked like a cat, exclaimed in surprise and then clenched her fist and waved her arm.

"Go for it, Yamoto!"

"Let's beat that guy from another school up!"

?

The cheers that suddenly rang out beside her startled Horie Asari, who had a long braid.

"Come on, Yamoto."

After hesitating for a moment, she also called out softly.

While others were impressed but didn't understand, Qianli knew that her best friend could tear thugs apart with his bare hands.
That boy from another school, who could fight Yamoto to a standstill, must be no ordinary person.

This is a supernatural confrontation:
Be okay, Yamoto!

"Yamoto? Is that the name of the girl from our school?"

"Okay! We'll join in too!"

"Yamoto-kun, take him down!"

"Go for it, Yamoto-kun!"

The word spread quickly, and soon other classmates were also clenching their fists, waving their arms, and shouting encouragement: If you didn't know, you'd think it was some kind of competition.

Although the two figures locked in a high-speed entanglement on the sports field are indeed engaged in 'competition' in essence.

Their competition is not only about determining who is better or worse, but also about life and death!
Hmph, is the target really that popular?

The encouragement in my ear
Tanaka Taiji, who was speeding along, muttered to himself in annoyance.

Wuwuwu——

Bang! !

The arm, whistling through the air, was like a long whip.
It slammed heavily onto the sports field, creating a crater the size of a washbasin and sending plastic fragments flying everywhere.

The one launching the attacks is the short-haired girl, Yamoto!
Her arms swung wildly, like whips; using the whip tip effect, her palms could even reach the speed of sound: when she hit the ground, she created a deep crater. The power was so great that even Tanaka Taiji with his bowl-cut hair twitched his eyebrows.

This target is not easy to deal with.

Right,

If it can be won easily

Why should that 'benefactor' bestow power upon him?
As these thoughts flashed through his mind, Tanaka Taiji's feet moved with a strange gait, sometimes heavy and sometimes light: heavy as a thousand pounds of force, crushing the sports field on the spot and sending dirt and stones flying everywhere; light as a feather, flying away and dodging with the gale, without any effort.

For a time, the two sides were evenly matched.

Well, not bad.

In the shadows of the trees beside the sports field, someone was truly observing from the shadows.

He bestowed upon the short-haired girl 'Paper Drawing,' a defensive technique from the 'Rokushiki' of the One Piece world. It allows her to release all her strength and control her body with ease, as if drawing on paper, adapting to various combat situations.

But that doesn't mean,

This technique cannot be used for offense!

To achieve the level of 'paper drawing', one's body must possess exceptional flexibility and the ability to disassemble and reassemble each joint at will.

By actively disassembling and stretching the arm joints, a short-haired girl can wield her arm like a long whip!
Even elementary school students know that the magnitude of an impact depends on its speed and mass.

The longer the acceleration distance, the faster the speed!

Bang————

With a kick, he stopped the opponent's 'whip hand' halfway through the attack;

The immense impact forced both of them back, and a ring of air spread outwards, stirring up visible dust, which amazed the students of Nakano High School who were watching from afar.

It was worth it to witness such an inhuman battle.

I'm starting to get used to it.

Tanaka Taiji, who had retreated, was certain in his heart;
As soon as he appeared, he was attacked by the opponent's fierce and relentless attacks, and was forced to retreat and become flustered.

However, Tanaka's speed far surpassed that of his opponent. After a series of dodges, he found an opportunity to intercept the opponent's whip with a kick, confirming a suspicion.

"Your attack needs to be charged up to achieve maximum damage!"

Between the two separated figures, the boy with the bowl cut confidently hopped lightly in place.

While the hand whip technique is undeniably powerful, it has a drawback: it requires a wide, sweeping motion, necessitating a large arm swing to achieve maximum effect. Just like a regular whip, once someone gets close and seizes the whip, it immediately loses all its power.

A girl's arm is naturally more flexible than a whip, but if you can intercept her before she gets going, you have a chance of winning.

brush---

With a flash, Tanaka Taiji swiftly circled behind the girl, Yamoto.

The ability he gained was 'leg strength'. His powerful leg strength not only allowed him to race against cars, but also enabled him to clearly feel the resistance of 'air' during high-speed kicks, using the recoil force to reduce the damage from falls.

Powerful leg strength is itself a weapon!
He kicked out, aiming for the girl's lower back: since that 'noble person' could grant him this power, he could easily kill her.

If Tanaka doesn't want to die, then the only option is for the other person to die—?!

null,

However, the kick missed.
The girl twisted her body suddenly, bending it into a 'C' shape to dodge the attack.

"Our capabilities,"

It's not some kind of whip-wielder.
Rather, it is an incredibly flexible and resilient body, and a heightened sensitivity to attacks!
Without turning around, Yamoto directly turned his head, and at the same time, he wrapped his arms around Tanaka Taiji from the left and right.

?

tread--

With no way out to the left or right, and the opponent's arm able to 'extend', Tanaka Taiji had no choice but to stomp his foot heavily.
He soared into the air, leaping several meters backward from the spot, and landed gracefully with a backflip amidst the shocked gazes of the surrounding students.

This is troublesome.
Unexpectedly, the other party was so difficult to deal with. Just as Tanaka Taiji was thinking of a countermeasure:
"Teacher, that's the person!"

"Hey, you"

The commotion coming from the side of the sports field caught Tanaka Taiji's eye as he quickly retreated: several teachers, carrying riot shields and riot forks, were being led there by the students with trepidation.

It was clear that they didn't want to get involved at all; but their duty as teachers compelled them to step forward.

"This student, please, please do not use violence."

Tanaka Taiji frowned as he watched the teachers trembling as they stepped forward.

"This is none of your business,"

With a single step, he plunged into the sports field, and with a flick of his foot, a large cloud of sand and gravel swarmed towards the teachers.

"oops!"

What are you still doing standing here?

"Run! Let's hold him off—"

These stones carried tremendous force, and several teachers with bloodied heads retreated while shouting: "Are those students around just watching the show? Do they really think the other side wouldn't dare to kill us?"

哼、

They do have some backbone.

Seeing that the teachers hadn't run away, Tanaka Taiji, feeling frustrated, pushed off with his feet and flew backward.

His speed far exceeded that of the short-haired girl he was targeting; but her body was incredibly flexible, almost inhumanly so: just like his leg strength.

For a while,
The two were like chickens pecking at each other, neither able to gain the upper hand.

Hmm, as expected, the beginner-level 'Paper Drawing' and 'Moonwalk' are about the same level, so—

Someone secretly observed all of this with great interest.

Who will win?
Among the chess pieces that are given power, the 'Kamaitachi siblings' are disguised as an old man and woman taking care of their granddaughter;

While secretly honing his skills at home in Bunkyo Ward, he also prepared to send the little girl to school. Nitta Yoshifumi, an elite member of the Metropolitan Police Department with supernatural powers, was unlikely to be detected by the department unless Akizuki Ritsu intervened. As for the 'Heisei Sword Saint' Machii Isao, he practiced swordsmanship daily without fail, while simultaneously searching for his next prey to test his skills.

Both groups of pieces are very cautious and will not make a move easily in the short term.

Akizuki Ritsu had no choice but to take matters into her own hands:
To create the immediate battle.

On the one hand, it allows us to see what the effects of the basic 'Six Forms' are; on the other hand, it prepares us for the next steps.

Meanwhile, black dots were approaching in the distant sky.

Those are armed helicopters from the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department!
"Superintendent Mitani, we're approaching the target. Should we slow down?"

"Of course, slow down!"

Inside the cockpit of the armed helicopter, Miyako Kana gave orders while looking down:

mobile phone!

That's right, it's a mobile phone.

This wasn't because she was neglecting her duties, but because she could keep track of the battle situation through her mobile phone.

Many students from Nakano High School are 'live-streaming' on TikTok, and every live stream is packed: This kind of superhero battle is something that not only individuals but also countries are paying close attention to.

It's no longer a question of whether the island nation wants to cut off the internet; it's that the whole world will not let this live stream stop.

OK,

How could your island nation have quietly produced a 'super soldier'?
The Prime Minister's official residence, located in Nagata-cho, Chiyoda-ku, has been inundated with diplomatic calls!
Many undercover agents and spies rushed to this area; even satellites in near-Earth orbit began to urgently adjust their orbits and change their observation angles.

Even someone like Miyako Kana, an "insider," relied on the blurry live stream footage from her phone to assess the situation.

Evenly matched!

Then let's wait until they're tired of fighting, and then reap the benefits.

We can't let this drag on.

Tanaka Taiji frowned deeply in the uneven sports field.

He had just killed someone, and the longer this dragged on, the more likely the police or even the Self-Defense Forces would appear. They had to break the deadlock as soon as possible!

Got it.

Tanaka's gaze swept across the sports field, taking in the scattered students, and his eyes lit up during the intense battle.

The next second, he stopped arguing with the short-haired girl and rushed off in a certain direction.

"Run? No, wait—"

The short-haired girl, Yamoto, followed Tanaka's gaze closely, and her usually cold face suddenly changed expression.

That is the direction of simple reasoning!

"Stop right there!!"

The urgent sound of someone chasing after him put Tanaka Taiji at ease.

Sure enough, those three female college students were the target's friends. How pathetic.

As he sped along, Tanaka Taiji stomped his foot heavily, and his right foot sank into the sports field, reaching all the way to his ankle!
Then exert force—

call! !

He actually dug a piece of soil the size of a ping-pong table out of the ground, then tumbled and flew towards the edge of the sports field, his target being three female college students!

"Hey?"

The female college student, who resembled a cat, looked on with surprise and disbelief.

Why? Why attack them? — Oh right, they are Yamoto's good friends.

Everyone urged Asari to leave quickly, even though she herself was worried about Yamoto.
Just as the three high school girls were stunned, a figure came running and blocked their way.

Double Whip Hands!
The attacks, swung left and right, drew a huge 'X' shape.

As if he had eaten the 'Rubber Fruit', Yamoto's two extended arms suddenly lashed out at the earth and rocks: the immense force shattered them instantly! He protected his dearest friend.

but--

Bang! !

Behind the shattered earth and rocks, a taut leg swept across like a battle axe;

He kicked her hard in the waist, bending the short-haired girl into a 'U' shape, sending her flying and crashing heavily into the adjacent school building.

Protecting others means you can't protect yourself;

As the girl slid down, cracks appeared all over the wall!

This kick, capable of making one walk on air, could easily kill a person: if the short-haired girl hadn't also been a 'supernatural being,' she would have been cut in half on the spot.

"ah,"

"Yamoto?!"

"stop--"

The three female college students reacted differently to their friend who was suddenly and seriously injured.

One of them was so frightened that he collapsed to the ground, while the cat-like girl ran over and tried to help her friend up; and the long-braided girl named Horie Asari actually spread her arms to block Tanaka Taiji.

"Angmei, take Yamoto away!"

While shouting to her friend, the girl glared at Tanaka Taiji through gritted teeth.

"I won't let you pass!"

Unless you kill her.

The determined look in the girl's eyes startled the boy with the bowl cut.

Tanaka Taiji could have easily killed the other person with a single kick, but he paused for a moment because of the other person's gaze.

It's this pause that...

The tide of battle turned.

"Get away from Asari!"

The short-haired girl, who had been kicked in the waist, lay sprawled on the ground without any grace. With a push of her limbs, she pounced forward again at an unprecedented speed!
Superficial reasoning, superficial reasoning, superficial reasoning!!!
Since killing her father, the girl's world has been a cold and gloomy place, with her only source of light being her best friend.

Yamoto would do anything for her.

—I'll kill you!
? !
Faced with the girl who rushed towards him with terrifying speed after the outburst, Tanaka Taiji instinctively raised his hand:

Just pull the female college student next to you to act as a shield.
Click! !
The short-haired girl's arm swung in a large circle and struck Tanaka Taiji's chest heavily.

As the sound of ribs breaking echoed in his chest and he was sent flying backward, a thought flashed through Tanaka Taiji's mind:
Doesn't my appearance look just like that guy 'Eguchi'?
Cause and effect, retribution

Bang!
He was sent flying several meters backward, and then rolled several times before Tanaka Taiji finally stopped.

"Cough cough cough,"

The boy with the bowl cut, lying on the ground, spat out a mouthful of foul blood.

A moment of weakness can lead to the following consequences:

Defeat!

Why hold back?

With his ribs piercing his heart and lungs, Tanaka Taiji, who was already beyond saving, heard a question in his ears.

"Your Excellency?"

The person asking the question was not the short-haired girl who had defeated him with a single, powerful attack and then slowly collapsed; rather, it was a classically beautiful woman in dark robes who had appeared beside him at some unknown time.

"I'm sorry, I... I can't do it."

The boy with the bowl cut, blood gushing from his mouth, gave a bitter smile.

"She...she's different from me."

The other side had classmates cheering them on, teachers willing to stand up for them, and even close friends who would stand by them through thick and thin. And what did he have? Nothing.

Otherwise, Tanaka Taiji wouldn't have been defeated so quickly; he could have simply used others as shields.

"You're a good person,"

In response, the classically beautiful woman with dark hair reached out and aimed at the bowl-cut boy on the ground who was about to die.

"But good people often meet a bad end."

With a clench of his five fingers, a 'figure' floated out from Tanaka Taiji's body.

"I will accept your soul—"

Soul twisted, shrunken, and finally:
It fell into the hands of a beauty.

???

This scene was witnessed not only by Yamoto, the short-haired girl being supported by her close friend, Miya Kana at the door of the helicopter that arrived, and the teachers and students around the sports field; it was also broadcast live on the students' mobile phones and transmitted to the whole world, making countless people feel cold all over and as if they had fallen into an ice cellar.

Soul capture?!
