A person in Tokyo becomes a demon god

Chapter 69 The Wind of Freedom
"what?!"

Oh my god!

"What did you say?"

Almost simultaneously, countless shocking questions resounded across the planet, in buildings such as presidential palaces and prime ministerial residences in various countries.

"You're not kidding, are you?"

"No, Director."

At the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department headquarters in the island nation, the secretary bowed as he reported.

"The Metropolitan Police Department received more than 100,000 calls in a short period of time, claiming that the content of the fairy tale 'Cinderella' had been changed."

The reason it's 100,000 isn't because 100,000 people actually called the police, but because that's the only capacity the Metropolitan Police Department can handle at the same time.

In short, the Metropolitan Police Department's emergency phone lines were overwhelmed with calls.

The 'spectacle' of the entire island nation calling the police simultaneously,
It can be described as unprecedented and unparalleled.

The story in the book suddenly changes out of nowhere; that's a supernatural phenomenon.

"We have sent people to confirm that the story of Cinderella in every book we have come across so far has been distorted in the same way."

"books?"

Director Fujita immediately grasped the key point.
"Yes, Director."

Currently, the distorted stories are all in the 'books': the documents on the computer have not been changed at all, and it is still the perfect ending of 'and they lived happily ever after'.

Is the book just distorted?
What about other countries?

“Distortions also appeared,”

The secretary handed over the tablet.
"Lieutenant General Thomas's video call."

“Dear Fujita, we’re in trouble, big trouble.”

On the tablet, Lieutenant General Thomas, with his white hair, looked somewhat listless.

“Just now, the story of Cinderella in fairy tales in every country in the world—please note, in every country—has been distorted.”

That 'princess' sought her freedom; and at the end of the story, she broke free from the limitations of the 'book'!

“What’s worse, we’ve tracked down the ‘princess’.”

???

Just as Director Fujita was inwardly startled,
When a bad feeling arose, Lieutenant General Thomas confirmed the director's suspicions.

"This 'Princess' is in Yokohama City, and is currently—"

Tsurumi Ward, Yokohama City.

Yokohama is adjacent to Ota Ward, one of the 23 wards of Tokyo.
Located south of Tokyo, it is also a very developed and modern city: further south is the famous Yokosuka.

Located on the coast, Tsurumi Ward is not a well-known place; however, it is home to the Tokyo Metropolitan Area Expressway Bayshore Line and the Tokyo Metropolitan Area Expressway Kanagawa Line 5: simply put, it is the outermost ring expressway along the coastline of the Tokyo metropolitan area, and also Tokyo's most famous racing route.

Whoosh—whoosh—

Two beams of light sped through the traffic, reaching a speed of 270 kilometers per hour, which is comparable to the flight speed of a regular helicopter.

Modified vehicles speeding past drew angry curses from drivers on the highway.

"Damn MC!"

The term 'MC' is an abbreviation for 'Midnight Club,' a famous street racing organization in Tokyo.

This organization was active in the last century and is known for its strict entry requirements. The requirement to reach a speed of 250 km/h on a specific road section alone eliminates most people.

Later, due to causing a serious car accident, the organization was forcibly disbanded by the government: but even if an organization can be disbanded, people will still imitate it.

Before long, a new 'MC' appeared again, continuing its rapid ascent down this road.

"Stomp hard! Stomp hard! Stomp hard!!"

"Full speed, what's there to be afraid of? What's there to be afraid of?"

Exhilarating in-car music emanated from two modified Toyota Supra (A80) vehicles;

Two modified cars, speeding at 260 km/h, weaved through traffic, letting their adrenaline surge, because at that speed, any mistake would mean instant death.

Seat belt? Airbag?

Don't be ridiculous. It's questionable whether a metal car body can even remain intact, let alone a mere flesh and blood body.

Behind the two modified cars speeding by, a police car with its siren on: hanging far behind, supported by the 'ambient lights' overhead and its dedicated lane.

"Those damn biker gangs!"

The police car leading the chase was driven by a female police officer.

The short-haired, agile policewoman gritted her teeth, flooring the accelerator but only able to watch in the dust at the back: their police car's speed was restricted, only able to reach 220 mph.

Moreover, even without restrictions, the elegant partner in the passenger seat, with her hair tied in a long braid, was already 'out of her mind'.

"Xia Shi, my life is in your hands."

"What's so special about this speed?"

The short-haired girl kept her foot on the gas pedal the whole time, complaining as she sped along.

"What era are we living in? There are still so many restrictions on police cars!"

Last time, it was in Seguda Ward.

It was those two who caught the speeding 'Eguchi'.
After getting a promotion and a raise, he continued to recruit people in the Tokyo metropolitan area.

Even biker gangs can't catch up.

What if we encounter the supernatural—?!

A quick glance to the side and the short-haired policewoman 'Natsumi' driving the car froze in shock;

Forgetting to turn the steering wheel, I drove the car straight toward the guardrail.

"careful!"

Squeak squeak squeak

Fortunately, the policewoman's skills were quite good.
After a moment of surprise, he realized what was happening and jerked the steering wheel, thus avoiding crashing into the guardrail and flying into the sea.

This ring road around Tokyo consists of numerous viaducts that connect a series of man-made 'docks'.

Reaching speeds of 220 km/h, one wrong move and you'd be feeding the fish in Tokyo Bay!

"what is that?!"

The short-haired policewoman slowed down, her forehead covered in cold sweat.

"W-what?"

The elegant policewoman next to her, who had already closed her eyes and dared not open them, had not yet reacted.

"Miyuki, contact the helicopter!" Rationally, the short-haired policewoman didn't believe what she had just seen; but this was the supernatural era, and even if she had to go back and write a self-criticism, it was better than missing important intelligence.

"A carriage just passed us."

???

In fact, she wasn't mistaken.

Indeed, a pumpkin-shaped 'carriage' was speeding along the viaduct, overtaking one vehicle after another at a terrifying speed, leaving chaos in its wake.

Fortunately, two bikers had already sped past, so most vehicles slowed down.

As long as the speed is slow enough, even if an accident occurs, one can still react in time.

and:

Horse-drawn carriages and the like,

You must have misread it, right?

Even professional traffic police officers doubt their own eyes, let alone ordinary people.

But what was speeding by was indeed a carriage, and on the carriage stood a graceful woman dressed in finery.

"Ah, freedom—"

With her arms outstretched, standing atop the speeding carriage, the woman enjoyed the feeling of freedom.

"No complicated etiquette, no backstabbing, no deceit. I am not some jewel of a kingdom, I am simply myself: Cinderella!"

A tall woman, dressed in a gorgeous blood-red gown and wearing a jeweled crescent-shaped crown, was intoxicated by 'freedom': this world was far larger than the one she lived in, and far freer than that castle: she could do whatever she wanted.

"Ok?"

Two speeding 'carriages' ahead caught Cinderella's attention.
"How dare you run in front of me?"

"Rat, show them your strength!"

In front of the magnificent pumpkin carriage, the two horses pulling it were moving so fast that their hooves blurred into a blur, like flying wheels.

Rolling fruit,

This 'magic carriage' possesses Devil Fruit abilities.
However, the source of its power is rather useless: the Roll-Roll Fruit, which allows the user to transform themselves into a means of transportation for rapid movement. In the world of One Piece, the user is Aberon, a member of the Silver Pirates, who transforms himself into a mining cart to transport various ores for his captain on railway tracks.

A Devil Fruit user,
Being relegated to manual labor is utterly shameful.

Of course, the weaker one is the one who consumes it: if a powerful expert were to eat it, simply turning into a 'mud truck' would be terrifying enough.

Charging in at 300 mph with overwhelming force
That scene... wow!

"Hahaha, those cops are so useless!"

"Easily bursts out—"

Inside the two speeding modified cars, the drivers are chatting with each other on walkie-talkies.

"Don't be careless,"

"The police are no threat; the real danger lies with the helicopters."

The driver of the other car calmly pointed out,
These speeders all use fake license plates and have professional car modification shops; unless they are caught on the spot, they can never be caught afterward.

But here's the problem: if you can't escape on the spot, you'll inevitably have to go to prison.

And they almost all carry a host of crimes, big and small.

"We're planning to find an overpass,"

"Dodge the helicopter and complete the 'Star Elimination'. What?!"

The biker gang members, who were speeding, glanced at the car and froze instantly, because a very strange scene was unfolding beside them:
A classic 'carriage' pulled by two fine horses and with a gorgeous pumpkin-shaped carriage is running alongside them in an unscientific way!
Damn it!
"It is a supernatural being."

One of the bikers immediately realized what was happening.

In the past, it would have been impossible for a horse-drawn carriage to chase a supercar;
We live in the supernatural age, for this to happen:

"Damn it!"

"Speed ​​up, speed up!"

Startled, the two modified cars accelerated again, even approaching 300 mph.

They originally came just to race cars, but they unexpectedly encountered a supernatural being.

Was it good luck or bad luck?
"Ah,"

As the two 'carriages' began to accelerate, the woman in the pumpkin carriage pointed.

"Surpass them—"

Woo, woo!

Steam billowed from their nostrils, and the two horses pulling the carriage sped up again.

The unscientific 'Devil Fruit' granted them terrifying speed, allowing them to keep up with the two modified cars.

"Report, target spotted!"

"The other party is speeding along the Tokyo Expressway and is about to reach the Daikoku PA area at 290 km/h!"

All of this was immediately captured by the helicopter in the sky and transmitted back to the Metropolitan Police Department, causing Chief Inspector Fujita to frown deeply: What is this 'princess' from the fairy tale doing?
"There is a situation!"

The helicopters that were originally chasing the car suddenly found that the situation had changed.

Three blurry car silhouettes sped along and came to a huge bend.

"it is good!"

The biker gang members, who had been pressing the accelerator, were suddenly jolted awake.
Fast curves

That's what real speed is!
Anyone can step on the gas when going straight.

"Shake off that carriage right here!"

As the two modified cars sped into the bend, their speed inevitably decreased.

Tap tap tap tap —

Woohoo! Woohoo!
Next second,
A horse-drawn carriage forcefully cut between them, seemingly drifting through a corner.

Whether it's the tilted carriage or the horse with its muscles bulging like mercury and steam billowing from its nostrils, it leaves one speechless with amazement.

This unscientific!

"Is this your limit?"

And the gorgeously dressed beauty, leaning over the top of the carriage, with a wicked smile.

brush----

Boom, boom!

The carriage overtook the other vehicle with great force, leaving behind two balls of flame that suddenly exploded!
"Hahaha, this is freedom~~"

Without glancing back at the explosion behind her, the beautiful woman on top of the carriage once again opened her arms, embracing her newly gained 'freedom'.
