The Strange Cat from Fuuto

Miku's mocking voice came from behind the rabbit, who put the defeated dragon on the ground: "I won't let you get away with this."

But at that moment, something unexpected happened.

"what!!!"

Suddenly, the defeated dragon roared and howled, its eyes flashing red light.

Chapter Twenty-Six: The Seven-Day Pact, the Imminent War.

"Ark!!!"

The rabbit roared in fury, but Miku remained seated on the sofa, ignoring the charging rabbit.

The rabbit wielding the drill crusher leaps high into the air in its rabbit-tank form, the drill crusher spinning rapidly in its hand, creating a vortex-like airflow.

But at that moment, something unexpected happened.

"what!!!"

The defeated dragon, who was suffering terribly from the deadly poison injected by Miku and hovering on the brink of life and death, suddenly cried out.

This sudden turn of events drew the attention of everyone on the field. The convulsing, defeated Long suddenly slammed his head against the ground, followed by his heels, and straightened up.

The crimson venom patterns began to appear and disappear on his skin, his eyes emitted a strong crimson light, and his previously weak voice became strong and powerful.

"what!!!"

E's expression changed repeatedly as the painful roar of the defeated dragon echoed in his ears. He sensed the aura of his own kind from the defeated dragon, though faint, it was indeed the aura of his own kind.

"Is this an awakening?"

Before E's inner murmur had faded, the defeated dragon suddenly sprang up from the ground, unleashing a powerful shockwave that swept in all directions.

Faced with the sudden shockwave, Miku and Evans casually dispersed it, while Rabbit, who was in mid-air, had no time to react and was instead knocked away by the shockwave, landing not far from Miku.

"What an interesting change!"

As Miku spoke with great interest, the defeated dragon turned around, took out the Battle Driver, and transformed again. This time, the bright blue energy blood on the energy channels on his body had some dark red.

"They have indeed awakened, but to what extent have they awakened?"

E looked at the defeated dragon with a look of surprise. Not only did the dragon's danger level rise rapidly, but the aura it exuded also made everyone present feel as if they were being watched by a wild beast.

"It seems my prediction was correct. The genetic material related to E in Banjō Ryūga's body was just concealed by human genetic material. Although the human experimentation with nebula gas served as a trigger, his awakening speed was still slow."

"Only by using stronger stimulation can we successfully awaken him!"

Miku had already written the awakening of the defeated dragon into his script. Only by constantly provoking the defeated dragon and the rabbit could he complete his plan as quickly as possible.

"Oh!"

The defeated dragon, whose step shattered the floor, flashed to Miku's side and threw a punch forward.

Faced with the sudden attack from the defeated dragon, Miku did not panic. Instead, he calmly watched his opponent.

"Awoo!"

A wolf howl rang out as Iqi stepped in front of Miku, taking the brunt of the Dragon's punch. A ball of energy, a mixture of bright blue and murky dark red, poured into Iqi's body along with the Dragon's fist. Iqi's body didn't even tremble; only the dark, crackled patterns on his chest flickered rapidly.

Taking this opportunity, Miku touched the leg of the defeated dragon with his toe: "Danger level 3.7. The danger level has increased so much in such a short time. I'm getting more and more interested in you, Banjō Ryūwa!"

"Don't block my way!"

The defeated dragon withdrew his fists and attacked again, his fists enveloped in violent energy as he frantically bombarded Iggy.

Iggy's disdainful gaze slowly turned to surprise. Not only was the defeated dragon's power becoming increasingly violent, but its strength was also constantly rising.

Spinning its body, the defeated dragon punched Iggy's visor, successfully sending Iggy flying. The defeated dragon, clenching its fist and roaring, breathed heavily, its body trembling.

"Did the rapid increase in the danger level cause his mind to go berserk?"

E immediately saw the problem with the defeated dragon, who stood in front of Miku and fiercely declared, "I'll kill you all!"

"I'll destroy you!"

"I'll crush you all to pieces!!"

Faced with the taunts of the defeated dragon, the rabbit stared at him in astonishment. In his memory, although the defeated dragon usually seemed a bit fierce, he was an extremely upright person.

Now that he's said such things, the rabbit can't help but worry about him.

"It seems your mind has been completely captivated by the surging power, Manjō Ryūga!"

Miku spoke, drawing the attention of the defeated dragon, whose eyes were turning bloodshot as he stared at Miku: "I'll kill you!!"

Miku stared at the defeated dragon's movements. The moment the dragon shook his arm and his waist shifted, Miku raised his hand and pointed his finger at the defeated dragon: "Program terminated!"

Before the defeated dragon's powerful punch could land on Miku, his battle driver abruptly stopped operating.

As the armor disintegrated into energy photons, the defeated dragon was also slapped away by Miku.

The defeated dragon, flying backward, was about to crash its head into the protruding corner of the glass box when E stepped in first, pressing down on its shoulder and catching it in his arms.

After determining the danger level of the defeated dragon, E's eyes revealed a hint of satisfaction: "Danger level 3.9, just one step away from the conditions for using the squeeze driver!"

"Let him go!"

The rabbit switched to its ninja manga form and rushed forward, trying to snatch the defeated dragon back from E-zong's hands, but unexpectedly, E-zong pushed the defeated dragon directly into his arms.

"Here you go!"

While the rabbit was completely bewildered by E's sudden move, it quickly deployed a smoke bomb and left with the defeated dragon.

"Stalk, what do you mean by this?"

Miku got off the sofa and confronted E aggressively. E replied irritably, "I should be asking you that too. What are you trying to do all this all of a sudden?"

"The dragon is a precious experimental subject of our Faust, and it cannot be damaged at will."

"Oh...."

Miku, drawing out his words, circled around E, "But why do I have a feeling you have other plans?"

"Ark, I advise you not to worry about too much. Just follow my orders, otherwise..."

"Okay, okay!" Miku laughed, raising his hands. "I'll listen to you!"

...........

The official residence of the Tokyo Metropolitan Government.

meeting room.

Three giant arrows bearing the initials of the English letters Northeast and West were placed in the center of the conference room, each pointing to one of the three chairs.

With his full head of silver hair, Taizan Himuro sat in a chair, his hands supporting his thighs, and said with great sincerity, "This time, the theft of Pandora's Box is a problem of our Eastern Capital!"

"We will retrieve Pandora's Box as quickly as possible and give you an explanation."

"Explain?!"

Prime Minister Tajimi Yoshiko of Hokuto sneered: "Do you have any clues about Pandora's Box?"

"What kind of people did you send to search for Pandora's Box?"

"How long do you plan to take to retrieve Pandora's Box?"

"What do you plan to do if we can't find it?"

A barrage of sharp questions caused cold sweat to bead on Himuro's forehead. Still keeping his head down, he whispered, "We will definitely find the Pandora's Box. No matter what, I'll risk my life to get it back!"

I think we should forget about it!

Prime Minister Midou Masakuni of the West Capital crossed his legs and placed his hands together on his thighs: "Anyone who can take Pandora's Box in full view of everyone is a vicious and ruthless person."

"Since they dared to take it, they must have a certain level of organizational or military strength. Based on these two points alone, what strength does your Dongdu have to reclaim the lost Pandora's Box?"

Tajimi Yoshiko said dismissively, "Besides, who knows what those criminals want to do? When Pandora's Box was opened, our country was divided into three parts. I think you know how powerful Pandora's Box is!"

"Right now, the situation in Tokyo is like the switch to a nuclear weapon has been stolen. The world is in danger of being overturned at any moment." Mido Masakuni added timely words, and Himuro Taizan felt even more pressure.

"We will definitely find Pandora's Box!"

"never mind!"

Tajimi Yoshiko shook her head: "Get ready for war, Himuro Taizan!"

"what?"

Himuro Taizan, who had just looked up, exclaimed in disbelief: "Please don't start a war, or the people will suffer terribly!"

"The Pandora's box that we three capitals have been taking turns guarding has been without any problems for ten years, but this year it has come to your Eastern Capital and this unexpected thing has happened."

"I think this is just a farce orchestrated by your Dongdu employees themselves, a case of embezzlement and misappropriation!"

"That's not it!"

"Alright, you two, stop arguing!" Masakuni Mido stood up and stopped their dispute.

"Seven days!"

"We're only giving you seven days, Eastern Capital. If you can't find it within seven days, then Western Capital and Northern Capital will join forces to attack your Eastern Capital!"

"this...."

"Prime Minister Himuro, we have given you ample time. Whether it was a genuine accident or a staged event, we will see Pandora's box in seven days."

“Otherwise…” Mido Masakuni left the rest of his words unfinished before canceling the projection and disappearing from the conference room.

As Tajimi Yoshiko watched Mido Masakuni leave, she bluntly left behind the words: "You in Touto, you'd better watch yourselves!"

After saying that, he deactivated the projection and disappeared from before Himuro Taizan's eyes.

"this...."

Himuro Taizan sighed, "Why did things develop to this point?"

He slumped in his chair without speaking, instead staring at the chandelier on the ceiling. His secretary beside him remained silent, awaiting his next command.

After a long silence, Himuro Taizan spoke up: "Where is Gentoku?"

"Director Himuro is currently in the hospital. He was assaulted for some unknown reason and is still receiving treatment."

"He was beaten up?"
