I became Hokage in Tokyo

Chapters 394 and 395: I've gone mad (Revised)

"The strength of the Uchiha clan chief is becoming increasingly unfathomable."

"As expected of Earth's number one transcendent. Although I'm too inexperienced to have faced a Kage-level powerhouse directly, I figured he was nothing special!"

After Uchiha Senmon left, the twelve generals in the conference room breathed a sigh of relief, and then showed excitement.

Although I knew that Uchiha Captain was strong, I didn't expect him to be this strong!

The Uchiha Sage Sect's unwavering resolve and strong self-confidence deeply impressed them, putting their minds at ease and dispelling their previous anxiety.

"Chief Uchiha is indeed the pillar of the Supernatural Police Department. As long as Chief Uchiha is there, nothing serious will happen."

The hero of the roost slumped in his seat, feeling both happy and worried.

After all, he was recruited into the system by Minister Uchiha, and they had fought side by side on Mount Fuji. Both publicly and privately, he was genuinely happy for Minister Uchiha.

However, Tosu Hero has now secretly joined the Hawk Organization, and Uchiha Department Head is a potential enemy.

The various feelings are truly indescribable.

"Let's not think about that too much for now. Right now, there's only one thing to consider: which of the Twelve Divine Generals should we team up with?" Torii Hero's eyes flickered.

To guard against potential dangers, after the twelve generals scattered throughout the country were recalled to Tokyo, they were required to work in pairs, whether on missions or during special training.

Avoid acting alone and going it alone as much as possible.

Although the Uchiha Sage Sect made this request, they did not directly designate teams; instead, the Twelve Gods chose their own partners.

Tosu Hero raised his head, his gaze subtly glancing at the bald monk dressed in the abbot's robe.

The current head priest of Senso-ji Temple is Yuji Kanbara.

The most mysterious of the twelve divine generals.

No one has ever seen Yuuji Kanbara make a move, nor does anyone know what his extraordinary abilities are. Even Hideo Tosu, another of the Twelve Divine Generals, is completely unaware of them.

This is said to be a top secret matter for the Supernatural Police Department.

However, Hideo Tosu has read internal documents about Yuji Kanbara.

A former police officer at the Nakano Police Station, he was the first person to come into contact with the extraordinary being Jiriku; after his battle with Sasori of the Red Sand, he gained the favor of the holy monk Jiriku; he has a deep affinity with Buddhism and is the only person to have heard the divine oracle of the Lord of Mount Tai...

All signs indicate that this person is no ordinary individual!

Online speculation and research about this most mysterious of the Twelve Divine Generals abound, with many people confidently asserting that the new head priest of Senso-ji Temple is a trump card hidden by the Supernatural Police Department.

Yuji Kambara's true strength has most likely reached S-rank, and he might even be able to rival Captain Uchiha.

This is an opportunity!

Now that he had secretly joined the Eagle Organization, he should naturally find out the background of the other twelve generals as a pledge of loyalty.

When Tosu Hero stood up, he wanted to invite Yuji Kanbara to team up with him.

Just then, Yuji Kambara waved his sleeve and strode out the door with a powerful stride.

"Master Kanbara, you haven't decided on your partner yet."

"Amitabha Buddha, no need."

Shinbara Yuuji chanted Buddhist mantras, his expression strange, and said:

"Minister Uchiha has granted me permission to act alone and I don't need to participate in any further training. I have other matters to attend to, so I'll take my leave now."

Tosu Hero's expression changed.

Does Minister Uchiha really have that much faith in the abilities of the head of the Kanbara Academy?

It seems that the rumors circulating online about Yuji Kanbara are not entirely unfounded.

Tosu Hideo's regard for Kanbara Yuuji secretly rose several notches.

Since the plan has fallen through, who should we team up with next?

Tosu Hero's gaze swept across the conference room.

Mineko Yuuki (Suzaku)?

Tosu Hero was deeply impressed by the explosive power and destructive force of Yuki Mineko's Lava Release, which was considered one of the best among the five A-rank superhumans in the Supernatural Police Department.

However, the compatibility with me is not very good.

Just as the hero of the stomping sank to weigh the pros and cons, a figure walked up to him:

"Mr. Tosu, if you haven't decided on a partner yet, how about teaming up with me?"

The hero of the Bird's Nest suddenly focused his gaze.

It's Shuichi Satomi from "The Soul Reaper".

This was an unexpected choice.

However, Shuichi Satomi had come into contact with the stone bowl in front of the Buddha, and the wind cave that he used to absorb ghosts and evil spirits was a gift from the Lord of Mount Tai, which is of great value in these turbulent times.

"Then I'll have to trouble you to guide me, Mr. Satomi."

The two, each with their own ulterior motives, exchanged a knowing smile.

-

"Chief Kanbara has left the headquarters building. Okay, I understand."

In the department head's office on the fifteenth floor of the Supernatural Police Headquarters building, Uchiha Senmon stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window.

Looking down from this angle, you can see the bustling streets and pedestrians appearing as tiny as ants.

The reason why Yuji Kambara didn't have to participate in special training is simple: he is the only ordinary person among the Twelve Divine Generals.

Although he was involved in many supernatural events, Yuji Kanbara gave up the opportunity to become a superhuman and lived a normal life. By a twist of fate, he became the head priest of Shinsenso-ji Temple.

The outside world considers him one of the Twelve Divine Generals, which is a complete misunderstanding.

Asakusa Temple, a newly built sacred site where the God of Mount Tai bestowed miracles, has attracted nationwide attention since its construction began.

As the head priest of the new Senso-ji Temple, Yuji Kambara naturally attracted a lot of attention, and his resume was quickly thoroughly investigated by the resourceful media.

Yohoho!

An ordinary policeman, not some high-ranking monk, transformed into the abbot of the new Senso-ji Temple in less than half a year. You still say he's extraordinary?

Various secrets involve the Lord of Mount Tai, and the Supernatural Police Department is not at liberty to explain them to the public.

As a result, it was taken as an admission, and Yuji Kanbara was dragged into the fray by the busybody media, making up one of the twelve generals.

Although Abbot Shenyuan is not a superhuman, as a person who was once given a dream by the Lord of Mount Tai and heard the Lord's divine message, Shenyuan's importance is no less than that of other superhumans.

Many high-ranking government officials are still eagerly hoping that Lord Taishan can once again bring down a miracle through Yuji Kambara.

Yuji Kambara, an unofficial member of the Supernatural Police Department, also receives a salary here.

Since Yuji Kanbara is just an ordinary person, there is no need to involve him in this turmoil.

"Knock knock knock".

Just then, there was a knock on the door of the Uchiha Senmon's office.

"Come in."

Uchiha Senmon sat back down at his desk and said.

Assistant Ichimaru walked in carrying several documents and reported to Uchiha Senmon:

"Minister Uchiha, the Twelve Divine Generals have been divided into five groups as you requested. Here is the list."

Uchiha Senmon remained calm and accepted the group assignments.

By using special training as a pretext for private contact, more opportunities can be created to subtly hypnotize the target with the Sharingan and plant a suggestion.

Two people at a time is more suitable.

Uchiha Senmon's gaze swept over the familiar names one by one, his eyes darkening before returning to normal and nodding slightly.

"Minister Uchiha, the genealogies you requested regarding the descendants of Abe no Seimei, the Tsuchimikado clan, and other branches of the Kurahashi and Fujita families, have been collected. Please take a look."

Thank you for your trouble.

Uchiha Senmon took the thick document handed to him by Ichimaru's assistant and began to read it carefully.

The Onmyoji Shion not only possesses superb Onmyoji skills, but can also use the Taishan Fujun Festival, which was created by Abe no Seimei. It's hard not to associate her with the Abe family's heir.

Starting with the genealogy of Abe no Seimei's descendants to search for clues is a logical step.

Unfortunately, Frank was determined not to hand over the peach wood puppet that Shion had removed and share it with the Americans and Japanese; otherwise, they might have discovered some valuable clues.

Despite being a devoted Catholic, he clung to the supernatural artifacts of heretics, his expertise completely mismatched, making it impossible for him to research them thoroughly.

The Supernatural Police Department went to great lengths, meticulously gathering all the information about the Abe no Seimei Onmyoji family.

The three great Onmyoji of the Abe family were the great Onmyoji Abe no Seimei, the one who subdued Tamamo-no-Mae Abe no Yasachika, and the one who brought the family back to its former glory, Abe no Ariyo.

It was Ariyo Abe who advocated changing Abe's surname to Tsuchimikado.

The once illustrious Abe family had declined by the Muromachi Shogunate period, and it was difficult to produce offspring. Abe Ariyo believed that this was because the Abe family had been cursed by evil spirits while trying to ward off disasters and evil in Japan, and that only by changing their name could the family be revitalized.

Tsuchimikado was the residence of Abe no Seimei during his lifetime.

After the Abe family changed their surname to Tsuchimikado, they actually enjoyed a period of great success during the Edo period under the rule of the Tokugawa Shogunate. The Tensō Jifu Festival, which was held to commemorate the Emperor's accession to the throne, was presided over by a descendant of Tsuchimikado.

As the saying goes, what goes up must come down. After the Meiji Restoration, the Tsuchimikado family never recovered and struggled to make a living by running Tsuchimikado Shinto.

It wasn't until the extraordinary era arrived, and with the help of the Lord of Mount Tai, that it was able to rise from the ashes.

"Eh, has Abe no Seimei's direct bloodline been completely extinguished?"

The Uchiha Immortal Sect spent a full ten minutes skimming through the document, their brows furrowed.

"Even the heirs of Tsuchimikado Shinto are from a lineage that was adopted seventy years ago, and are not blood relatives of Abe no Seimei. Other descendants bearing the Tsuchimikado or Kurahashi surnames are basically imposters."

Uchiha Senmon couldn't help but close the book and sigh.

In this way, the lineage would be completely interrupted.

There has never been any famous female Onmyoji in the history of the Abe family.

Her real name is unknown, her identity is unclear, and her purpose is unknown. The Onmyoji named Shion is full of mysteries, and it is impossible to predict what she will do.

If they can't even find her, then trying to steal the Taishan Fujun's spell from her is simply a pipe dream.

However, the Uchiha clan was determined to win the Mount Tai Lord Festival.

"How are the surveillance personnel arranged at places like Abe no Monju-in, Seimei Shrine, and Tsuchimikado?" Uchiha Senmon asked, looking up.

"As you instructed, Minister, every location is monitored by police officers in shifts, day and night."

Uchiha Senmon nodded slightly.

The places mentioned above are all places where Abe no Seimei trained and honed his skills during his lifetime, or religious sites related to Abe no Seimei in later generations. If Shion is indeed related to the Abe family, perhaps he will revisit these places.

Aside from the idiotic method of waiting passively for opportunities to come, the Supernatural Police Department had no better options. They were just throwing stones at the problem, no matter how hard they tried.

This is truly a turbulent time. The appearance of Ziyuan, a suspected Kage-level expert, is very likely a harbinger of the end of the Severed Heavenly Connection.

Possessing the legendary Yin-Yang Dao supreme secret technique, the Taishan Fujun Sacrifice, which can bring people back from the dead, he stirs up countless hearts and stirs up undercurrents.

The cabinet's decision to relocate the Twelve Divine Generals to Tokyo was both a precautionary measure and a result of greed.

If it weren't for this, the Uchiha Sage Sect wouldn't have been able to leverage the situation to execute his "Mirror Flower, Water Moon" plan.

"In less than two months, it will be the Ghost Festival, the annual Taishan Fujun Festival..."

A red light flashed in Uchiha Senmon's eyes.

Is this time and place merely a coincidence?

The Uchiha Immortal Sect had a sudden, strong premonition that this year's Mount Tai Lord Festival would likely be a turning point.

Just like the Asakusa Incident, it heralded the arrival of a new era.

"Heh, I really don't understand the bigger picture; I still can't let go of my hatred."

Uchiha Senmon's handsome face remained unchanged, but his eyes held a hint of madness. His eyes turned red, and the three tomoe suddenly appeared.

Ichimaru's assistant, standing before the Uchiha Senmon, had unfocused pupils and seemed oblivious to everything.

The Uchiha Senmon were well aware that once the expiration of the Sekiji Tenshou period, Japan, and even the entire world, would face unprecedented challenges.

However, driven by selfish motives, he plans to launch the "Mirror Flower, Water Moon" plan to rebel against the cabinet. In the worst-case scenario, he intends to wipe out the cabinet and wage war against the entire Self-Defense Forces.

As the head of the Supernatural Police Department, Uchiha Senmon carries the expectations of millions of citizens. He should be protecting the country as a shield for its people, but now he puts his own selfish desires above the overall interests of the nation, becoming the most unstable hidden danger.

Like a powder keg, it blew Japan into the sky.

"Am I going crazy?"

Uchiha Senmon buried his head in his hands, forcing out a difficult groan from his throat, the black tomoe in his eyes spinning at an abnormal speed.

Is it acceptable to weigh the safety of the entire nation and its 120 million citizens on a scale just for the sake of revenge?

Why can't we consider the bigger picture?

Isn't there an easier, simpler path that allows more people to be happy, to work together with the Supernatural Police Department and the Cabinet to overcome these difficult times?

"I have truly gone mad."

Uchiha Senmon raised his face, his scarlet eyes filled with a chilling coldness.

Only Mikoto can cure my madness.

The only way to cure Mikoto is to revive her through the Taishan Fujun ritual.

If you want to stop the illusion, the only way is to let me receive the Taishan Fujun Sacrifice so that I can let go of my hatred.

While proceeding with the plan step by step, we searched for the Taishan Fujun Sacrifice. If we could obtain the Taishan Fujun Sacrifice before my rebellion, perhaps we could stop here.

"The strongest pair, Tosu and Satomi? Let's start with them."
