I became Hokage in Tokyo

Chapters 357 and 358: Matt Kay

A thick-browed ghost wailing loudly?

Kurogane Kouzo rubbed his eyes in disbelief and looked over again.

The living room was empty, and the man's loud crying that had been heard earlier had also disappeared.

"What on earth is going on? It must be a hallucination after all..."

Kurogane Kouzo involuntarily stepped forward, looking left and right, but found nothing.

Just then, Kurogane Kouzo felt a pain on the back of his right hand. Upon closer inspection, the bright red curse mark became even clearer.

Hei Tiehui quickly used his other hand to wipe and rub it vigorously.

"Strange, why can't I get rid of it?"

Looking at the bright red curse mark on the back of his hand, Kurogane Kouzo's face was full of disbelief.

The pattern on it resembles a leaf with a swirling pattern in the middle.

It's another incredible thing.

"Could it be that he was tackled and slammed to the ground yesterday, causing head damage?"

Kurogane Kouzo pressed his temples, rolled his listless, dead-fish eyes, and said helplessly.

Even if I wanted to go to the hospital for a checkup, I didn't have the money.

When faced with a problem, try taking a long nap; things might be fine when you wake up.

Anyway, since I'm such a shady character, no one will care if I don't go to school for a day or two.

"juvenile!"

Suddenly, a large face with thick black eyebrows was placed directly in front of Kurogane Kouzo.

Terrified, Kurogane Kouzo fell to the floor.

The ghost of thick eyebrows has reappeared!

The illusory figure floated in mid-air, looking down and asking:

"Tell me, you are mine..."

"Huh, she's passed out?"

-

"You said your name is Matt Kay?"

In classroom D of the first year of Kobe No. 2 Boys' High School, Kurotetsu Teruzo lay listlessly on his desk, asking himself a question in his mind.

Behind Kurogane Kousuke stood a tall man with thick eyebrows, like a spirit behind him.

Strangely, neither the teacher reciting from the textbook on stage nor the students laughing and playing below paid any attention to this strange man.

"That's right! I'm the super-passionate teacher who forever sings the praises of youth! You can also call me 'Konoha's Proud Blue Beast'! Boy!"

The man with thick eyebrows raised his right hand, gave a thumbs-up, struck a pose, and laughed heartily.

In Jump manga, at this point, reflective material would be drawn on the teeth.

What a blue beast! It's more like a rare and exotic animal.

Kurogane Teruzo thought to himself.

After waking up from a coma at home, Kouzo Kurogane, believing he had encountered a ghost, dared not stay in the old house any longer and fled in a panic.

As a result, the ghost with the thick eyebrows still haunted him relentlessly.

In desperation, he tried anything, including a Hong Kong movie where ghosts were afraid of yang energy.

Is there any place in the entire city of Kobe with more masculine energy than a boys' high school?

So Kouzo Kurogane ran back to Kobe No. 2 Boys' High School, but to his surprise, the thick-browed ghost was completely unaffected and thrived in his new environment.

The thick-browed ghost looked at the boys exercising on the playground, sweating profusely, and inexplicably shouted words like "youth" and "passion".

Even Kurogane Kouzo felt ashamed.

Fortunately, no one else could see or hear the sounds made by the thick-browed ghost.

After calming down, Kouzo Kurogane was no longer as afraid as before.

Kurogane Kouzo glanced at the thick-browed ghost who called himself Might Guy.

The rare and exotic animals wore comical green bodysuits, combed their black hair into watermelon heads, and had super thick eyebrows. When combined, they were not scary at all.

And that big nose, it looks a bit like Jackie Chan.

"Mike Kay (マイト・ガイ), does that sound like a foreign name?"

Kurogane Kouzo couldn't help but glance at the black-haired, black-eyed ghost with thick eyebrows and a distinctly Asian face, and pondered.

Might means strength or power; Guy means man or fellow. The name means a strong or passionate man.

"I'll just call you Mr. Kai."

Kurogane Kouzo muttered to himself:

"Mr. Kai, when did you pass away? We haven't met before, have we?"

Kurogane Kouzo's implication was that everyone has a grievance to settle, and you should leave immediately.

"Yesterday at the beach, that was the first time I met you, young man."

Black Iron Glow's face darkened.

Wasn't that when he got beaten up by the thugs who hit on him?

"To protect her beloved, even knowing she was outmatched, she resolutely stepped forward!"

Before he knew it, Ah Kai's eyes were brimming with tears, and he spoke with great passion:

"This is truly youth!"

whispering sound.

Yesterday, I got a beating in front of Arisaki-sensei, and I've already been swept into the dark history of Kurotei Kouzo.

"What youth? Only handsome people or good athletes have a youth. People like me with acne only have acne."

Kurogane Kouzo casually made a self-deprecating remark, then said:

"Let me be blunt, Mr. Kai, what are you doing possessing someone like me?"

"Young man! I had a wish that I couldn't fulfill in my previous life, and now that I've been brought back to life, I hope to fulfill it with you!"

"etc."

Kurogane Kouzo raised his hand, signaling Kai to stop talking and to sort out his thoughts first.

The ghost with thick eyebrows claims to be a passionate teacher; could he really have been a physical education teacher in his past life?

Following Jump's formula, Kai's character is supposed to be a student who just missed making it to Koshien, or winning the national championship in a sports tournament, before unexpectedly passing away, remaining in the world because of regret.

Only by fulfilling Akai's dying wish can he attain Buddhahood.

Isn't this Hikaru no Go?!

"My body belongs to me, and I will never give it to anyone else. Besides, you've picked the wrong person; someone like me is completely useless."

Kurogane Kouzo clutched his chest and said:

"However, Mr. Kai, I can tell your family your last wishes. Are you Japanese?"

"No, this is my first time in Japan, and my first time in the world of the living," Kai replied.

The world of the surface?

Kurogane Teruzo was taken aback.

After the advent of the extraordinary era, the Japanese government selectively released some information, including the worldview that the human world and the celestial world coexist as an integrated entity.

"What!?"

Kouzo Kurogane couldn't help but slam his fist on the table and blurt out.

"Cough cough cough! Are you still half asleep?"

"But this is class time," the teacher said, slamming the chalk down on the blackboard with displeasure.

The other students' eyes were also focused on Kurogane Kouzo, as if they were being pricked by needles.

"I'm sorry! I'm so sorry!"

Hei Tiehui bowed repeatedly in apology, then buried his face in the table, holding his head in his hands.

"Ha ha ha ha!"

The students in the class burst into laughter.

"Mr. Kai, are you from another world? No, no, no, you're a ghost from another world?"

Ignoring the ridicule from his classmates, Kurogane Teruzo quickly asked himself the question.

"That's right! I don't belong to this era, nor to this world. In order to fulfill my wish to fight the 'eternal rival' once again, I signed a contract and came to this city called Kobe."

Mr. Akai is actually a being from the celestial realm.

What is the hotline for the Paranormal Police Department?

Kurogane Kouzo's first reaction was to hand Mr. Akai over to the state.

The Japanese government is soliciting reports from the public about yokai (supernatural beings) and evil spirits, offering a substantial reward for verified reports. Reports related to the celestial realm or supernatural beings are even more valuable.

However, since Mr. Kai is now possessing my body, if I am to hand him over, I must hand him over as well.

According to urban legends circulating online, the Japanese government conducts extremely terrifying secret experiments using monsters, ghosts, and other supernatural beings.

Will I be dissected and studied in the future?

Moreover, Mr. Akai doesn't seem to be an evil spirit or anything like that.

Hei Tiehui couldn't help but feel anxious and uncertain.

"By the way, Mr. Kai. Since you're from the other world, are you a transcendent?" Kurogane Hui San asked curiously.

"I know a little bit of physical skills."

"Physical skills? You mean martial arts, combat sports, and the like?"

After confirming repeatedly that Guy didn't possess any extraordinary abilities like summoning wind and fire or spraying water and electricity, and only knew physical skills, he was greatly disappointed.

Times have changed, what's the use of knowing martial arts now?

Even if the times changed again and the extraordinary era arrived, none of the twelve divine generals or the eagles were known for their physical skills.

Even if Mr. Kai can kill a bull with one punch, can he be like those terrifying Kage-level powerhouses who can blow up airplanes, tanks, cities, and mountains?

That's absolutely impossible.

"I have a lot of confidence in my fists. Young man, I see you've practiced martial arts before. Let's get fired up together and train for our youth!"

"hehe."

Kurogane Hirozo remained noncommittal, a look of disdain flashing in his dead fish eyes.

There is an old saying in China: "A knight-errant uses martial arts to break the law."

Having learned a few rudimentary skills, he couldn't suppress his impulse and insisted on playing the hero, only to be repeatedly beaten down by reality.

He has already suffered enough from practicing martial arts.

Kurogane Kouzo had long since given up martial arts.

Even a dog wouldn't learn martial arts!

"Ding ding ding!"

As soon as lunch break is over, the teachers leave without a second thought, avoiding any extra time for themselves or their students.

As usual, the other boys rushed out of the cafeteria to eat.

A tall, strong student blocked the back door in advance.

"Everyone stop!"

Two other people stood on the podium.

Kurogane Kouzo glanced at the stage and his expression changed slightly.

It's a trio from the judo club.

"Xi Chuan, what are you guys doing?!"

"I'm starving, get to the point."

The students below were all complaining. If the trio hadn't been the strongest fighters in the class, some of them might have already started cursing.

"Classmates, I've kept you here because something extremely shameful has happened in our class."

Xi Chuan, who was in the lead, slammed his hand heavily on the podium, then took out a photograph and said in a deep voice.

"Look everyone, what's this?"

"Wow, that's huge! Isn't that Ito-sensei? This photo is amazing!"

"Xi Chuan, where did you get this?! Give me a copy too!"

"Me too!"

The students below were in a frenzy, pushing and shoving to get a better look.

After seeing the photo in Nishikawa's hand, Kurotetsu Kozo's pupils contracted, and he reached into his pocket, only to find it empty.

When was it lost?

So much has happened since yesterday. Hei Tie Hui San missed two classes before coming to school, completely forgetting about returning the photos to Fatty Gao Xiang, and he doesn't even remember when he lost them.

Why is this photo in Nishikawa's possession?

Kurogane Kouzo's gaze subtly swept towards Gao Xiang in the corner of the classroom, whose chubby face had turned deathly pale with fright.

"You bunch of animals, I'm not here to give you any perks. How dare someone disrespect Ms. Arisaki, and that person is in our class!"

Nishikawa put the photos away, heartbroken, and said:

"This is a hidden camera! Who did it? Come out and tell us!"

Ito Arisa is the dream girl of all the students at Kobe No. 2 Boys' High School; she is the school's most unattainable beauty.

Upon hearing this, the male students below forgot about their meals and were filled with righteous indignation.

"Who did this? They're just keeping it all to themselves... What I said earlier doesn't count, it's despicable!"

"If I find out who did this despicable thing, I'll twist their head off."

Hearing these comments, Gao Xiangfei's face was covered in sweat, and his legs trembled as if he were being shaken.

Nishikawa's gaze fell on the fat man in the last row.

"Gao Xiang, this has nothing to do with you, right?"

The classroom fell silent instantly, and everyone had different expressions.

"I...I...of course...ah..."

Gao Xiang lowered his head, his mouth trembling, his voice sounding very weak.

"It's not that I don't trust you, but proving your innocence is definitely not a problem."

Xi Chuan looked at Gao Xiang with a mocking gaze, his tone full of malice.

Without waiting for Gao Xiang's reply, Nishikawa came over with two members of the judo club and turned Gao Xiang's drawers and schoolbag upside down.

"Crackling and popping."

Everything was roughly dumped on the ground, and textbooks were torn into large pieces at will, like snowflakes fluttering in the air, as if they wanted to check if there were any smuggled items inside.

"no."

The two shook their heads at Nishikawa.

Unwilling to give up, Xi Chuan glanced at the clutter on the ground, and under Gao Xiang's anxious gaze, picked up a cell phone and swiped it a few times.

"What's the password?"

"I...really, it has nothing to do with me..." Gao Xiang said humbly.

"Smack."

A slap landed on Gao Xiang's face, and his right cheek instantly swelled up.

"Don't make me say it twice, what's the password?"

Nishikawa's eyes were dangerous as he spoke, enunciating each word clearly.

"No... I don't know... please... spare... me..."

Gao Xiang covered his cheek, looked over with timid eyes, and said in a tearful voice.

"Snapped!"

"You fat pig, are you trying to defy me?!"

The students in the classroom, however, didn't seem to care. Their eyes revealed schadenfreude, as if they were watching a good show in an arena. Some even laughed as they watched, and some even took out their phones to film it.

"Clap clap clap!"

"Isn't this a bit too much? He's already disfigured and bleeding."

"It's nothing, just checking a phone. Gao Xiang won't talk about it, which is obviously because he has a guilty conscience. Giving him a lesson is only natural; it's not like we're going to kill him."

"That's true."

Gao Xiang, who was usually timid and submissive, was uncharacteristically defiant and refused to reveal his phone password no matter what.

This only confirms that he was the one who took the photos secretly.

With a sense of justice in their hands, the three members of the judo club no longer consider their bullying as bullying. They believe it to be "just punishment" and their actions become increasingly reckless.

"To tell or not to tell?"

Gao Xiang was forced to kneel on the ground in a dogeza position. Xi Chuan stomped hard on the back of his head with one foot, and like a victorious general, he looked around the classroom with his head held high.

"Damn it, I can't take it anymore, stop it!"
