I, Uchiha Hikaru, have joined the chat group.

Chapter 113 The Attack of the Fierce Ghosts

The Sheki-hachi family was able to find the headquarters of the Oni Clan so quickly thanks to Tachibana Masamune.

Although this guy is set as "Bondarev", after being the patriarch for so many years, he has still managed to "collect" a lot of information about the Oni Clan.

Originally, this intelligence was not to be used until two years later when the two sides went to war, but because of the appearance of Uchiha Hikaru, it benefited Uesugi Kotsu, who had just returned to the clan.

"We originally just wanted to go to Osaka to check on the Oni Clan, but we ended up discovering this..."

Genji took a photo out of his pocket and placed it on the table.

The photo was taken secretly.

It was evening, and the location was in front of a secluded mountain house—the site of the "Paradise House," a place secretly established by the Oni Clan to conduct power-for-sex transactions and raise funds.

A dark gray car was parked at the entrance of the manor. The driver opened the door, and the passengers in the back seat were getting out.

Although it's just a silhouette, you can still vaguely see his face.

To be precise, it was actually a mask, painted with the face of an ancient Japanese nobleman. Crimson lips, iron-black teeth, and a dignified smile playing at the corners of his lips.

"So this is what the King's Noh mask looks like..."

Uchiha Hikaru narrowed his eyes slightly, vaguely sensing something was amiss.

The Snake-Headed Eight Families were indeed plotting against each other with ulterior motives.

but……

Would someone like Wang Jiang so easily expose his whereabouts?

"Actually, we also suspected that this might be a trap."

Genji continued, "After all, the Sheqi family's recent operations have been quite large-scale, even the head of the family has been replaced. Such a major event could not have escaped the notice of the 'King General.' However, the executive bureau specialist who secretly took this photo disappeared after sending it back. Even just to confirm his fate, we have to go to Osaka to investigate."

I've come here now to ask if you, Ms. Hikari, would like to come along?

"...Alright then."

Uchiha Hikaru nodded.

After spending a few days as a gamer with Erii, it's time to get out and stretch my legs.

At this time.

Erii tugged at her sleeve and held up her little notebook: "Erii, can we come along?"

"Can't."

Uchiha Hikaru turned around and patted Erii's head gently, saying, "This mission might be dangerous. Your brother and I will go. You stay home and eat oranges, and don't go out... If everything goes well, maybe we can bring you back another brother."

"elder brother?"

"Um."

That is Genjiro.

The Paradise Pavilion was a place that Genjiro frequented.

If the king has indeed laid a trap in Osaka, then there is a high probability that Genjiro, as the strongest member of the Oni Clan and the "most evil demon" who is the opposite of the "Emperor" Genjiro, will appear.

Uchiha Hikaru was quite curious to see what kind of ability that guy's Word of Power, "Dream Eater," really was.

……

That afternoon.

Hikaru Uchiha boarded the bus bound for Osaka.

On the other hand, the Snake-Headed Eight Clan was led by Genjiro, who dispatched about twenty executives and some gangsters belonging to the Snake-Headed Eight Clan. There were more than a dozen vehicles, arranged in a "器" (qi) shape, with Uchiha Hikaru's vehicle in the middle, accompanied only by Genjiro.

Halfway there.

Genji glanced at Uchiha Hikaru several times before finally speaking up, "Miss Hikaru, if I may be so bold... may I ask what your opinion is on Erii?"

"What do you mean, how do you see it?"

Uchiha Hikaru was peering out the car window at the scenery when he asked without turning his head.

"that is……"

Genji seemed to organize his thoughts: "Although Erii's bloodline is very high, her mind is like that of a child. She doesn't understand many things and has no basic sense of right and wrong... If you're just looking for a toy to pass the time, I think it doesn't necessarily have to be Erii. There should be a more suitable candidate."

"Toy?"

Uchiha Hikaru raised an eyebrow, as if he was starting to understand—

If she really is a dragon king, then the only explanation for her seeking out Erii is indeed "to kill time." After all, in the common understanding among hybrids in the dragon world, dragons and humans are two different species, and there is no possibility of them becoming "friends."

but……

"A toy is better than a tool, right?"

Uchiha Hikaru said casually, "Instead of dwelling on my opinion of Erii, I suggest you think more about how to face your younger brother. After all, you killed him with your own hands back then, and he probably wants to tear you to pieces right now. I don't care, but Erii will probably be unhappy."

"..."

Yuan Zhisheng remained silent.

While there was an element of Herzog's influence, it is true that he personally killed Genji. Prior to that, it is also true that Genji killed girls in Shikatri Town and turned them into puppets. As a "Demon Slayer," he truly doesn't know how to confront these past events.

soon.

The car drove into Osaka and headed towards Gokurakukan, located in the suburbs.

During this process, the number of private cars around gradually decreased, but a row of very large vans began to appear, along with bikers riding motorcycles and hanging behind them.

"Boss, it seems like we're being watched..."

The sound of crows came from the walkie-talkie.

As soon as he finished speaking, the trucks next to him suddenly slammed their steering wheels shut and charged towards the Snake Clan's convoy like mad elephants! There were originally two lanes between them, but under the pressure of the massive trucks, which were three or four meters tall, the two cars that were driving on the road were smashed to pieces and then crushed together towards the convoy where Uchiha Hikaru and the others were!

Zzz—!

A series of braking sounds rang out.

Blinding flashes of light erupted between the tires and the ground!

Immediately afterwards, the doors of the trucks opened one after another, revealing the heavy machine guns that had been prepared in advance, and then a dense barrage of bullets followed!

Da da da—

The gunshots were deafening.

Although the Snake Clan's vehicles had undergone basic bulletproofing, they quickly succumbed to the dense barrage of bullets. Windows shattered one after another, sending shards of glass flying everywhere. Some tried to return fire, but under the overwhelming suppressive fire, they had no chance to fire.

Moreover, the biker gang members behind them caught up and took various types of shotguns and submachine guns from their motorcycles, firing wildly.

"...Tsk tsk, is the scene this big?"

Uchiha Hikaru leaned against the car window, watching the barrage of comments outside, which resembled a waterfall of steel, and clicked his tongue in amazement.

Such a scene of machine gun fire is something you can't see in the Naruto world; it's probably only something the Red Ribbon Army in the Dragon Ball world could pull off. She had experienced it once before a few days ago at Genji Heavy Industries, but compared to what was happening now, that was nothing.

However, the car she was in was in the middle of the convoy and had been fitted with bulletproof steel plates. The dense barrage of bullets had only shattered one window, so there was no need to be nervous.

Genjiro, standing next to him, was already ashen-faced.

In Japan, no one has ever dared to be so arrogant in front of the Snake-Headed Eight Family!

"Crow, Yaksha, cover me!"

When the shooting outside paused briefly, Genji kicked open the car door and rushed out, immediately activating "Dragon Bone Mode." Several other cars nearby opened at the same time, and Crow and his men, who had been lying in wait, followed. Many of them were injured, but the dragon blood allowed them to hold on for the time being.

the other side.

The people in the truck then brought out a rocket launcher.

Bang Bang Bang!

Several rockets with long trails flew toward the Snake Clan's convoy!

"Get out of the way!"

Yuan Zhisheng shouted loudly.

In his "Dragon Bone State," his royal blood surged, granting him reaction speed and explosive power far exceeding that of ordinary people, allowing him to easily dodge the oncoming rockets. However, the others weren't so lucky. Soon, a car was struck in the back seat by a shell, erupting in a blinding flash. Then, just seconds later, a second explosion occurred due to a fuel tank leak!

boom!!!

Uchiha Hikaru originally wanted to watch the show a little longer.

But the second volley of rockets hit the car in the middle squarely, exploding less than a meter away from her!
