Tokyo Ghoul: Starting with the Twin Kamui

After all, Yoshimura Eto inherited half of Yoshimura Kōzen's bloodline, so their kagune and kagune were similar. In addition, high-ranking kakujas can change their kakuja form at will, so Yoshimura Kōzen's illusion was quite effective.

"Uchiha? You're back. I remember you were sent to the Shoei Society to investigate ghouls, right?"

Just then, someone passed by and greeted Uchiha Byakuya.

"Yes, I'm just curious about some information."

Uchiha Byakuya had already been implanted with a large amount of memories by the system, and knew this colleague named Yamada Saki.

Yamada glanced at the computer screen curiously and saw that it was about "One-Eyed Owl". "So you're looking at information about One-Eyed Owl. This guy is really terrifying. Even Special Agent Urie was killed by this guy. He became an SSS-class extermination target in less than half a year."

Uchiha Byakuya remained silent for a moment. In his memory, this Yamadasaki was quite talkative, so he decided to wait for him to finish rambling.

"Fortunately, there is the dark horse Hei Pan Shangdeng. He dealt this guy a fatal blow last time, so he should not dare to cause trouble again for a while. It's just a pity that Hei Pan Shangdeng is also seriously injured and has gone to the hospital to recuperate."

Kuroiwa, a Senior Investigator, is also one of the future pillars of the CCG and a Special Investigator.

After Yamada Saki finished speaking, Uchiha Byakuya said, "I've finished checking. Do you want to use the computer?"

"Ah...no, no, I just happened to be passing by."

Yamadasaki scratched his head.

"Okay, I'll be going now. I still have a lot of work to do in the investigation."

Uchiha Byakuya said in a calm tone.

"Oh, thank you for your hard work. Let's chat again next time!"

After saying goodbye to Uchiha Byakuya, Yamada Saki was still thinking to himself, "Mr. Uchiha is really dedicated."

Moreover, it seems that he is an investigator from "that place". It is said that investigators from that place are all very young geniuses, and they are all directly "parachuted" into the CCG.

Unlike ordinary investigators who have to graduate from specialized investigator training academies before joining the CCG, they don't need to.

............

Uchiha Byakuya returned to the Shōei-sha and began preparing to investigate the ghouls.

The CCG assigned him this mission because two cases of ghouls preying on humans had recently occurred near the Shōei-sha headquarters. After investigation, it was determined that both cases were committed by the same ghoul and occurred in the same location.

Given his background, Bai Riting was destined to work honestly in the CCG until he could use the Dual Divine Might Eye Technique relatively freely.

Because if they act recklessly, they will be wiped out by those guys who even Yoshimura Eto fears.

Although he currently has some ability to protect himself, he doesn't want to be hunted down every day; it would be more comfortable for him to stay and work normally in the CCG.

Therefore, he was obligated to complete the tasks assigned to him by the CCG.

Moreover, completing tasks could lead to promotions and salary increases, and he also had his own reasons for choosing to stay in the CCG...

"Let's see if we can wait for him to come to us tonight. This ghoul's previous two attacks targeted young students, and both times it happened at night in alleyways when the targets were walking alone..."

Uchiha Byakuya began analyzing the mission-related information given to him by the CCG.

However, it wasn't evening yet, and he planned to help Yoshimura Aite review the manuscript, the electronic version of "To Kafka," in his office right now.

While reading like a reader, don't forget to add your own comments in certain places.

Of course, this is just a suggestion for Yoshimura Ete to do this kind of retouching, not a requirement. The choice of whether or not to do retouching is up to Yoshimura Ete herself.

This is what he believes an editor should do.

............

It was past 5 p.m. when I was supposed to get off work.

Uchiha Byakuya made a note of the pages he had read, then shut down his computer and went home after get off work.

His current home was also arranged for him by CCG. It's an apartment building not far from the Xiangying Society building, and he can get reimbursed for rent and other expenses from CCG afterwards.

Back in his ordinary little apartment, Uchiha Byakuya quickly finished his dinner and continued reading his manuscript, since he didn't have anything else to do for the time being.

Until midnight...

"It's almost time."

Uchiha Byakuya immediately set off.

Head to the alleyway mentioned in the mission information.

About ten minutes later, Uchiha Byakuya arrived at the location.

The dark alleyway, almost devoid of light, reeked of a foul stench, likely a mixture of stagnant water and long-accumulated garbage.

However, for Uchiha Byakuya, who possesses the Mangekyou Sharingan, even in such a dark environment, he can observe everything around him clearly.

At this moment, he was like an ordinary young man who was bored and aimlessly wandering around.

As expected, Uchiha Byakuya was quickly targeted.

A ghoul lurked in the darkest corner, staring intently at him, clearly having already identified him as its prey.

Little did he know, Uchiha Byakuya had already discovered this guy; his perception had been fully amplified by the Mangekyou Sharingan.

He could see that the ghoul was wearing a mask. Most ghouls wear masks when hunting or fighting to hide their true faces, so as not to be relentlessly hunted down by the CCG if their true faces are discovered.

Just then, the ghoul launched a surprise attack almost silently. Its kagune released a green kagune of the Koukaku type, which transformed into a sharp weapon and charged towards Uchiha Byakuya.

"too slow..."

Uchiha Byakuya said calmly, then dodged the attack with ease.

These are all basic abilities of the Mangekyou Sharingan. As long as you can accurately predict the opponent's next move based on their initial action, you can see through their actions perfectly.

He can anticipate actions that haven't yet occurred, which makes the other person's movements seem too slow to him.

"what?!"

The ghoul was shocked that his sneak attack had failed, and he looked at the human boy in disbelief.

....................

P.S.: During the new book period, I will try my best to maintain three updates a day, which is about 6000 words. I hope everyone will try not to wait until the book is finished before reading it.

Chapter 8 Quink "Eric"

"I don't want to kill people indiscriminately, even if the victim is a ghoul."

Uchiha Byakuya said calmly, "Surrender obediently, and I may spare your life."

"I understand, you must be 'White Dove'. You dare to come looking for death without that 'thing'?"

The other party ignored Uchiha Byakuya's attempt to persuade him to surrender and instead mocked him.

Because CCG investigators typically wear badges shaped like pigeons, they are called "White Doves" by ghouls. (Another translation: White Dove)

As for "Quinque," it is a weapon made by the CCG from ghouls' kagune, and it is specifically designed to deal with ghouls.

Because the kagune released from a ghoul's kagune is formed from RC cells, it is extremely powerful and also very hard. Ordinary weapons, and even bullets from firearms, cannot penetrate the kagune's defense.

Therefore, CCG investigators carry "quinques" with them when expelling ghouls, as only investigators with "quinques" have the strength to fight ghouls.

One of the most common warnings within the CCG is that investigators must be carrying a "quinque" before engaging in solo combat with ghouls; otherwise, they should not hesitate to run away.

This is why the ghoul in front of Uchiha Byakuya dared to mock him.

This ghoul believes that CCG investigators without "quinques" are lambs to the slaughter, and theoretically, that's certainly true...

"I've been wanting to taste you 'white pigeons' for a long time. Well, you've delivered yourself right to my doorstep, so prepare to die!"

The kagune of the ghoul was located on the lower edge of the shoulder blade on its back. A kagune larger than the one before was released from this ghoul's kagune, presumably with the intention of killing Uchiha Byakuya with all its might.

Seeing this, Uchiha Byakuya shook his head slightly and sighed.

He raised his right hand to cover his eyes, preventing the other party from seeing the brief moment when the twin divine blood pupils appeared.

With a fleeting moment of spatial distortion, a white briefcase containing "Quink" appeared out of thin air from the spatial vortex.

His right hand then pressed on the handle of the briefcase, which had biometric authentication technology, meaning that only he could use the "Quinck," preventing it from being stolen or misused.

When the briefcase was opened, the "Quink" transformed from a compressed kagune into a katana-shaped weapon. This was the B-class Quink codenamed "Eric".

In other words, this Quinque was made from the kagune of a B-class ghoul codenamed "Eric".

It was a quinque provided by the CCG to Uchiha Byakuya.

However, he had been keeping it in the Divine Might Space.

In other words, the personal alternate dimension that Kamui brought him is completely isolated from the world space of "Tokyo Ghoul".

"Quink? When?!"

The ghoul was immediately shocked; he hadn't seen how the other's quinque had appeared at all.

However, he was only shocked for a moment, and then charged at Uchiha Byakuya even more fiercely.

He was starving after not hunting for several days, and he was determined to eat his prey tonight.

"I gave you a chance..."

Uchiha Byakuya swiftly leaned back to avoid the ghoul's kagune aimed directly at his face. As the ghoul's attack missed and it rushed behind him, he retaliated with a slash that severely damaged the ghoul's kagune.

The kagune is the most important organ for ghouls, and once it is severely damaged, it is difficult to recover, unlike other parts of the body that can heal quickly.

With just one strike, Uchiha Byakuya rendered his opponent incapable of fighting.
