I am a female swordsman.

This group of people! They were like cold, hard bayonets! Silently and brutally plunging into the chaos of Area 11!

Bright and dazzling, the crows arrive to the rescue!

The arrival of Yomi was like a sword carrying a halo of sunlight, tearing through the darkness woven by ghouls over Area 11, bringing a ray of light. However, to truly cleanse all evil spirits like the sun, Yomi has not done enough; she needs more people to help her.

The events leading up to the attack on the Mado Corps are as follows.

After being attacked upon entering Area 11, Mado Kureo unleashed astonishing fighting power against a large number of ghouls.

He wielded two Quinques, using the elevated bridge to his advantage and single-handedly blocking more than half of the ghouls. His Rinkaku Fuguchi I unleashed a frenzied slicing and tearing attack, cleaving every ghoul it touched in two. His Koukaku Fuguchi II, a perfect combination of offense and defense, formed a butterfly shape, perfectly protecting Mado Kureo.

In fact, Mado's team was the first to repel the attack by the Aogiri Tree!

After acquiring the new Quinque, Mado Kureo displayed combat power that completely overshadowed Yomi and Amon, suppressing the situation.

After losing contact with the 11th District branch, the battle-hardened Mado Kureo learned about the attack intentions of the "Aogiri Tree" and the current situation of the 11th District through interrogation of prisoners. He then decided to prioritize gathering the scattered White Doves of the 11th District.

First, it was to save lives and prevent the isolated investigators from being dismembered and slaughtered by ghouls. Second, it was to consolidate forces; Mado was planning something big!

Surround and kill the Bronze Tree!

"Our support route is the longest of the three teams, and it covers the widest area, which is our advantage. I know that guy Marute; he's creating an opportunity for us to gather our forces, counter-encircle the main force of the [Aogiri Tree] attack, and annihilate these audacious scum!"

With his eyes wide open, Mado Kureo was so excited he almost lay on the map, trying to understand what kind of person his old boss was. That sharp-tongued guy had already prepared a way to break the deadlock in this dangerous situation. Mado keenly sensed the key to winning this war.

The white doves scattered throughout the stronghold are a powerful force capable of reversing the entire battle if people can gather them together before they are all wiped out.

Only one of the three support teams can do this!

The tacit understanding between the former boss and his former subordinate was evident.

Mado Kureo's order to Yomi was to use her as the vanguard, to integrate the former 11th District investigators with sufficient combat power, and to quickly weave through and integrate the scattered White Doves at the 11th District's external bases like a razor, so that before [Aogiri Tree] could react, she would be responsible for blocking the enemy's core!

Meanwhile, Amon Kotaro led another team, taking a different route from Yomi, to gather the scattered investigators.

In short, the responsibility of resolving the urgent crisis of the 11th Division can only be entrusted to the other two teams.

Seemingly connected to the captains of the other two teams, Mado Kureo wasn't too worried about the other support teams being overwhelmed. Instead, he was somewhat concerned that the ghouls of [Aogiri Tree] might discover Mado's team's intentions, leading to the escape of many large foes. This was the first time [Crow] had acted so unconventionally.

In fact, if he could, Mado Kureo would much rather be on the front lines slaughtering these despicable ghouls than sitting in the relatively safe rear giving orders!

But that was the situation! He suppressed his personal desires!

Everyone in this team trusted him enough to entrust their lives to his command, so as a senior, he had an obligation not to let them down. Mado Kureo clenched his gloved hand into a fist and slammed it hard on the 11th Division's location. He wanted to tell these audacious ghouls something!

The streets of Tokyo belong to humankind!

Chapter 87 Please Take Us Home

The ghouls, who had always operated in the shadows, now openly ventured out under the cover of night, even hunting down white doves. This dramatic reversal of fortune was as addictive to the members of Aogiri Tree as fresh flesh and blood.

The ghouls, standing atop the white doves and the corpses of civilians, mocked the scene, occasionally tearing off bloody chunks of flesh from beneath their feet and swallowing them with relish. As some of the more brutal members of Aogiri Tree, these ghouls responsible for guarding the area naturally possessed considerable strength.

The white pigeons in District 11 are being gradually eliminated; their task is now more about surveillance.

Ghouls have extremely sharp senses!

With focused attention, even distant movements could be clearly detected. Several members of the Bronze Tree leadership were boasting about their achievements when suddenly one of them slightly turned his head.

Shh! Don't speak!

He seemed to be a minor leader; as soon as he spoke, the others quickly shut their mouths.

"What's that sound...?" The sound was coming from another street, and it sounded like blood spurting out after flesh was cut open. But the ghoul leader remembered that the other street was the territory of other supervisors, who had caught and processed a lot of live prey before, so why was there still a sound now?

Tick ​​tock!Tick ​​tock!

The sound of dripping water began to approach the street, followed by the overlapping footsteps in the distance.

"You guys keep watch here, I'm going to check it out." Not quite understanding what had happened on the other street, the highly vigilant foreman nervously adjusted his mask and walked towards the dim darkness. In the instant his figure disappeared into the shadows, he saw the last sight of his life: a pair of bloodshot eyes filled with murderous intent.

puff! !

The cold, sharp object easily pierced and tore apart the heart, and the leader's corpse was kicked out in the next moment, curled up like a lobster.

"what!"

"Who's there!?"

The previously relaxed atmosphere instantly turned tense and dangerous. The ghouls could only vaguely see a white figure standing in the darkness, unlit by the firelight. The next moment, the rhythmic clanging of metal overhead robbed them of their senses. Several ghouls had somehow infiltrated the rooftop area and were now aiming down at their prey. With a command, the dark muzzles of guns blazed open!

The pitch-black street was instantly enveloped in bright flashes of light, and the skillfully combined crossfire engulfed all the ghouls in a scorching barrage of deathly flames.

Coldly watching as the flesh and blood of ghouls were torn to shreds by the flames, Yomi, her right hand pressed against the hilt of her sword, inhaled the sudden increase in gunpowder smoke in the air and softly uttered a number.

"7!"

This is the seventh base she has been in charge of for search and rescue since infiltrating Area 11.

As time passed, the hope of rescuing the white doves in these isolated strongholds grew increasingly slim. Witnessing the ghouls' wanton slaughter of investigators and their predation on humans along the way fueled Yomi's murderous intent. These ghouls, now completely unrestrained, were like unbridled, brutal beasts, recklessly destroying everything in their path.

【Aogiri Tree】is turning Japan into a battlefield, a brutal battlefield where anything that crosses the line is possible!

"Third-class under the Yellow Springs, one survivor has been found."

A bespectacled, somewhat bookish-looking investigator approached nervously after clearing the battlefield. He explained that he was a Class 3 investigator from the CCG 20 branch district.

He wasn't originally on the list of investigators to provide support, but he proactively submitted a request to Mado Kureo to participate in the support mission for Area 11. It seems he was inspired by Amon and Yomi's enthusiasm for their work and wanted to do his part on the front lines. As an investigator who was more inclined towards a clerical role, his ability to grit his teeth and persevere in this harsh and ruthless battlefield for the first time must have changed Yomi's opinion of him.

"How is the situation?"

“Not very optimistic…” Caochang Third Class’s face was pale and unsightly. The survivor’s miserable state was just too shocking.

"Take me to see it."

It's worth mentioning that this third-class sergeant, Kusaba, had previously assisted Amon and Yomi in searching for the "mother and daughter," as had another third-class sergeant, Nakajima. Nakajima also joined the support team, but he wasn't in Yomi's vanguard; instead, he was assigned to Amon Kotaro's vanguard.

There was indeed a survivor investigator at the seventh stronghold.

He was on the verge of death, clinging to life by sheer willpower. Half of his face was gnawed away, the exposed bright red muscle and gums a gruesome sight. His injuries were even more appalling; even Huang Quan, upon seeing them, couldn't help but frown.

The investigator who was treating Huang Quan's injuries shook his head.

This person is beyond saving; even if the medical team arrives, there's no way to reverse the massive blood loss.

"Please, please... rescue... Special Officer Marude... our mission is complete, please take us home." The survivor, barely able to speak, suddenly tilted his head, and his loosened hand fell limply to the ground.

Please take us home...

Huang Quan was speechless at the sight, and everyone present lowered their heads in silence. He was actually quite lucky; at least he had a relatively intact body. The stronghold attacked by the ghouls contained many more incomplete but complete corpses.

In the end, Caochang San Deng somehow found a white cloth and covered his face.

What's the next step?

Caochang watched as Huang Quan remained calm and composed, seeking specific details for their next move. They had advanced to the seventh stronghold as planned, and their next move should be to converge on the original location.

But perhaps we can save even more people.

If their team had tried a little harder, perhaps they could have rescued other survivors like them in other outposts sooner? Just thinking about it made Caochang feel a tightness in his throat, a particularly uncomfortable sensation.

"The original plan remains unchanged."

"……OK."

Hearing Huang Quan's flat voice, Cao Chang seemed to breathe a sigh of relief, but also felt a little regretful. He nodded and did not ask any further questions. Instead, he went out and began to give Huang Quan the follow-up orders.

Huang Quan reached for the headset.

She could contact Mado Kureo and Amon Kotaro directly, but in this dangerous area fraught with peril, she generally kept her communications silent, as did the other two. She tapped her earpiece, and soon Mado Kureo's inquiry came through. Mado was still very concerned about Yomi.

"My mission is complete. Please issue a new order. My initiative will be far more effective than any rendezvous. Please order me to launch a proactive attack! Senior Investigator Mado Kureo!"

Chapter Eighty-Eight: Kill all enemies!

[Sword Demon] Huang Quan requests to join the battle!

At this moment, the ghouls and white pigeons in Area 11 are in a chaotic situation, which is very dangerous for individual actions. If you act alone, you may accidentally run into a group of enemies. Being in a group is the best way to ensure your safety.

But this is not the case for Huang Quan!

First, her individual strength is formidable. When acting alone, she can freely utilize sword techniques that defy common sense, such as the [Illusion Sword Technique]. Without any constraints or limitations, Huang Quan's combat power is considerable. Second, Huang Quan's terrifying intuition as a swordsman allows her to easily pinpoint the location of enemies, preventing her from wandering aimlessly like a headless fly.

Huang Quan felt he could do something about it.

For those who lack the ability, for those who don't have time to do it!

"Have you thought this through?" On the other end, Mado Kureo's expression was stern and solemn. Rationally, he did not want his beloved disciple to put himself in danger in this situation.

"That's right, please allow me to take the initiative!"

Huang Quan answered loudly!

She used to not want to do anything, but after meeting Mado Kureo and experiencing all sorts of things along the way, she dared not say that she would do her best to leave no regrets, but at least she believed that Yomi was willing to give it a try.

Mado Kureo couldn't help but smile. As expected of his disciple!

"Then go ahead and do it. Slaughter all these man-eating demons who don't even deserve to go to hell. I, as your teacher, will bear all the consequences you cause. I have only one requirement: kill anyone who stands in your way! Whoever blocks your sword, anyone who hinders you from swinging your sword, kill them!"

Huang Quan's bright red lips curved upwards in an excited smile.

She felt a surge of heat, a slight tingling sensation in her fingertips, and she was sincerely grateful to her teacher, Mado, for his decision to let her go out on her own.

Such delegation of authority on the battlefield is no easy feat. To prevent Yomi from being influenced by certain individuals within the CCG, Mado Kureo specifically stated that he would bear all the consequences. Even his own daughter, Mado Akira, would likely not receive such leniency from Yomi if she were fighting on the battlefield.

Huang Quan strode out, took off his helmet, and casually handed it to his comrade beside him.

"Grassland Third Class, you are in full command from now on. Just follow the original plan." Huang Quan, whose long silver hair was no longer restrained, was slightly fluttering in the evening breeze. At this moment, Huang Quan was full of high spirits and sharpness, like a sharp sword being drawn from its sheath, with a cold glint in its eyes!

"Ah! And what about you?"

"I'm going to kill ghouls."

Brilliant and dazzling, like the halo of the sun, the light emanating from the bright blade of the Sword Demon Huang Quan's longsword seemed poised to tear apart the boundless night! No longer bound by these shackles, Huang Quan used his sword to slay all filth and evil. Unconsciously, Huang Quan's choice became even more aligned with the will of the Sword Sect!

The tall, silver-haired figure suddenly exuded an inspiring and passionate longing.

………………

District 11, a certain outpost on the outskirts

Having secured the terrain advantage and locked in a stalemate with the [Aogiri Tree] ghouls, the faces of these white doves were filled with despair. Near a small doorway, more than a dozen corpses lay scattered haphazardly!

Among them were ghouls and white-uniformed doves, who nervously counted the kunka they still had. Their ammunition reserves, specifically for dealing with ghouls, were dwindling. Perhaps if the enemy attacked a few more times, they would all perish in this small room today.
