A person in Tokyo becomes a demon god

Chapter 220 Inviting Heroes
"The Rose Garden Competition?"

"Yes,"

Located in Setagaya Ward, at the Machii family dojo.

Introduction to the 'Rhine River Sprite' with fluttering butterfly wings:
"This is a contest for the throne, and the ultimate winner will receive the throne of the Netherlands and the reward of the Rhinegold."

"Rheinmetall?"

Machii Isao, dressed as a middle-aged, aloof beauty, frowned.
That's no good: the Nibelungen Ring was forged from 'Rhinegold'.

"Don't worry, the swordsman from another country."

The Rhine River spirit saw right through Machii Isao's thoughts.
“Those are uncursed Rhine gold, which is the best choice for making weapons or armor.”

Of course, that gold was taken from the treasuries of various countries by someone using an avatar, and then remelted with the 'Golden Fruit'. It is far harder than any alloy and is a true 'supernatural metal'.

Even supernatural experts, when faced with modern firepower, can only rely on dodging before they have mastered domineering energy or iron blocks.

There's no way around it; this world can't compare to the One Piece world. Everyone here is a monster, and even if they take a cannonball right in the face, they just roll their eyes and then instantly return to the fight covered in gray and black.

So someone deliberately took out these 'Rhine Gold' items, which can also be considered as enhancing the supernatural's defense.

So,
Machii Isao was smitten.

He doesn't need armor, but he lacks a long sword.

The previous weapons were corroded and broken during the battle with the Water Dragon God, rendering them unusable.

"Can I bring my apprentices?"

Machii Isao naturally wanted to take his disciples to witness such a grand event, but:

"Hehe, it's a good principle, but I don't recommend you do it."

Floating in the air, the palm-sized 'elf' shook its finger.

"Those participating in the competition are all 'heroes' from all walks of life,"

"You should know that not all heroes are charming when it comes to beautiful women."

Yes,

After a little thought, Machii Isao realized it.

The 'organizer' of this competition is the legendary figure of San Dezi, who operates on the classical customs of Western Europe: Money? Steal it! Treasure? Steal it! Beautiful women? Steal them!
Even Hercules, the 'Hercules,' once stole a woman's belt; turning the pages of Western European mythology, the heroes mostly 'took' what they wanted: it's certainly enjoyable to read the stories, but if you become the one being 'taken', you won't be laughing anymore.

Unfortunately, all three members of the Machii Isao family are now 'beauties'.

"Master, it's me—"

"No,"

He raised his hand to interrupt Eguchi, Machii Isao had already made his decision.

"I will participate in this competition myself."

Judging from the tone of this 'Rhine Spirit,' only a supernatural being of his caliber is qualified to 'enter'; those who are not strong enough will only humiliate themselves if they go.

Machii Isao would naturally not miss such a place teeming with experts.

"Treasure? Throne? Fame?"

"That's right, the Rose Garden has all of these—"

The 'Rhine Spirit' with outstretched arms answered in this way, but Iori Kazuka immediately shook her head.

"I'm not going!"

She's busy practicing her "roundness" and "spreading" every day and battling with other women at night. She's too busy to participate in any "Rose Garden Competition" at all.
"Pegasus, please don't!"

"Of course I'll go to such an interesting competition."

Iori Kazuka wasn't interested, but Tenma was thrilled: a battle between numerous powerful beings from another world?
She wants to see his teeth and mouth!

As for encountering bad things?
She's not afraid of death, so what is she afraid of? Besides, Pegasus hopes to be a man now.

All I can say is that Pegasus probably didn't know anything about classical Western European mythology, otherwise he wouldn't have thought that men were safe.

"Pegasus, you... never mind,"

Seeing her best friend's high spirits, Iori Ichika didn't stop her, and:
"I am coming too!"

"No, I can go by myself."

However, Ichika's decision was immediately rejected by Tenma.

"This is my personal desire, and it would be unreasonable to involve you in danger."

"It doesn't matter,"

The 'Rhine River Spirit' with fluttering butterfly wings interrupted their argument.

"As long as you hold this 'invitation' in your hand and silently say 'go there,' you can come to our world: if you hold hands, it doesn't matter how many people there are."

However, whether one has the ability to protect oneself in that dangerous world is another matter entirely.

"Then, please allow me to take my leave."

After lifting her skirt and giving an elegant bow, this 'Rhine River fairy' vanished into thin air.

Domineering does not mean invincible.

Luffy was captured in Big Mom's territory and imprisoned in a cage created by the 'Book-Book Fruit'.

At that time, Luffy's Armament Haki was already quite good, but he still couldn't break free. If it weren't for Jinbe coming to the rescue, Luffy would have performed a hand-tearing escape.

Guy, who once said "Only domineering power is everything," was incredibly envious of Whitebeard's Tremor ability when he was young. In order to obtain a Devil Fruit, he ambushed the young old lady Linlin with a spiked club, chewed on the shit-like Devil Fruit, and even made a "really delicious" expression.

Devil Fruits and Haki are the two major powers in the world of One Piece.

There is no inherent superiority or inferiority; it all depends on individual training and development. The domineering aura left behind by Joy Boy eight hundred years ago can intimidate Im into breaking out in a cold sweat.

In Rocks' plan, once he collected two legendary fruits, he was confident he could challenge Im, the world's king.

Moreover, the pawns created by someone in this world are only at the beginner level in terms of domineering abilities.

It's clearly impossible to influence the 'world in the book' he created.

Aside from the 'strongest' characters created by Akizuki Ritsu himself...

Naturally, we should also invite experts from the real world to go in and hone their skills. ————

"Uncle, although that elf called it a tournament, given the style of classical Western European mythology, casualties are quite normal. You..."

In Western European mythology, a match without bloodshed is considered a fixed match; being killed on the spot is the norm.

It's not the kind of safe competitive sport we see today.

"I know,"

In Osaka, at the headquarters of the Goryeo-kai, Matsumoto Jinpei put down the scroll in his hand.

"But such a grand event offers a rare opportunity to witness powerful figures from other worlds and accumulate more combat experience."

Experience is also very important.

The same ability can be used in completely different ways by different people.

Just like an esports pro and a complete novice, the same character can have completely different performances. Furthermore:

"Only by witnessing more capabilities can one become more prepared."

Many supernatural abilities,
Both have a 'first encounter kill' mechanism.

It's normal for a strong player to be instantly killed if they're not careful, but if they know the mechanics, they can easily avoid it.

For example, a certain 'Childhood Fun Fruit' is a true instant-kill technique.

However, once they know about it, the threat level is greatly reduced.

"In that case, then I—"

"No, I'm worried about Ryuji and the others if you stay here."

Whether it's Shinoda Takashi, who just inherited the Yamaguchi-gumi as the 'Seventh Generation', or his childhood friend 'Number 18' Urabe Akira, who is preparing to return to the Great Forest to continue searching for her, as well as Nika Rei, who has become a Wood Spirit, Matsumoto Jinpei is always worried about her.

"They're in your care."

There's another reason, which Matsumoto Jinpei didn't mention.

"Uncle, are you worried that I might get into danger?"

Satomi Sato rolled her eyes at Jinpei Matsumoto.
Behind her floats the 'Red Demon Mother Robe,' which has a strong ability to resist modern weapons.

However, if you encounter a supernatural powerhouse, the defensive effect will be greatly reduced, and going to that so-called 'Rose Garden' will definitely be fraught with danger.

"rest assured,"

A large hand covered Sato Satomi's head, and Matsumoto Jinpei made a serious promise.

"I'll be fine."

"What? You want me to go live? This—"

In the sky, the 'News King' flapping its wings looked shocked.

"Is this really good?"

"What's the connection?"

The 'Rhine River Sprite' with butterfly wings tilts its head with a grin.

"Since it's a celebration, it should naturally be grand and lively: if there's a lack of spectators, who will cheer for the heroes?"

Since ordinary people's mental energy can be transformed into tangible power, someone naturally wanted to take this opportunity to let the experts on this planet experience the feeling of being empowered by the power of the masses, and see if it could help them make a breakthrough.

"They say you're the 'News King' of this world, could it be—"

The tiny elf stood with its hands behind its back, leaning forward.

"Are you afraid?"

"How is that possible?"

With a grin, the giant birdman spread its wings.

"Then please take good care of me, Rhine Spirit."

How could the "King of News" possibly miss such a grand event?
The initial surprise was merely that the other party had invited him: the 'Rhine River Elf's' classical attire and her use of terms like 'live broadcast' and 'audience' made News King feel somewhat uncomfortable.

The Rose Garden Competition is something to look forward to!

Sigrún has taught at the Iceland University of the Arts as a part-time lecturer since and was Dean of the Department of Fine Art from -. In – she held a research position at Reykjavík Art Museum focusing on the role of women in Icelandic art. She studied fine art at the Icelandic College of Arts and Crafts and at Pratt Institute, New York, and holds BA and MA degrees in art history and philosophy from the University of Iceland. Sigrún lives and works in Iceland.

"The Rose Garden Competition?"

"The prize is the throne of the Netherlands, the Rhine gold, or even the Ring of the Nibelung?"

The Metropolitan Police Department quickly received this information: the 'Rhine Spirit' who acted as the messenger had not requested secrecy. Moreover, while the hotel where 'Siegfried' and Rei were staying didn't have cameras, it did have listening devices.

So when he received these messages, Director Fujita felt a headache, but also a sense of relief.

"Finally, a corner of the mythological world is about to be unveiled."

"Yes, Director."

Miya Kana, who was in the office, nodded in agreement.

"That 'messenger' even generously invited 'News King' to come and do a live broadcast."

In this way, the whole world can watch the battle and take the opportunity to get a glimpse of the strength of the 'Mythical Age': according to the 'Rhine Spirits', neither the Netherlands nor the Rose Garden exists in this world.

Another world, I wonder what it has to do with the 'fairy tale world'?
At the same time, someone also began writing in "As I Say Books":

"The curtain of centuries has risen!"

Look beneath that dome where laurel and steel intertwine,

Heroes from all directions gather here:
Beowulf came wielding three swords.

Dietrich, the son of the devil, was not to be outdone.

King Arthur's sword sheath is reborn amidst the roses.

And travelers from another world—ah! They descend on wings of thunder and gale!

Today, we do not fight for bloodshed, but sing for glory!
