Chapter 119 (Please Subscribe) Until Death Do Us Part: The Man Who Stands Against the World

The atmosphere reached a fever pitch.

The man's face wore a cold and malicious smile.

A strong wind blew, and in the street, two men stood facing off: the government and the underworld, the strategist and the schemer.

Li Xuan asked in bewilderment, "What's going on? Why would someone from the organization fifty years in the future become a high-ranking official in the Japanese police force on this day fifty years ago?"

"Why? Because I was the person in charge of this project. My future self, fifty years from now, personally asked the clone to tell me this. When I learned that the human experiments that my predecessors had maintained for so long had finally succeeded more than forty years from now, do you know how excited I was? The effort put into this experiment was not in vain."

Right Ring replied with a smile.

This kind of experiment sounds extremely inhumane, even to the point of being terrifying to think about. It's hard to believe that the origin of the future fifty-year war is connected to him fifty years ago.

Li Xuan finally understood who his enemy was: the national government. This situation was utterly hopeless.

With a smile, Youjie continued to recount this experience to Li Xuan, saying, "Starting from the Heisei era, the United States began to take over the political and economic lifeline of this country. It was almost impossible to carry out this kind of scientific evolution experiment at the government level, or even within the cabinet government system, because the United States' influence had penetrated into every field of Japan. This kind of experiment was continued by us reformists."

This man seemed to have no intention of hiding anything, and even dared to tell Li Xuan such inside information. He was very confident, and it should be said that Li Xuan's fate was also in his hands.

"This can also be considered part of the government's will. I've heard a lot about you. We know everything about the Ashikawa Group, the Illuminati, the Omi Alliance, and the Tojo Clan. So you understand now, [War Demon]? Civilian organizations can only serve the government, and it has always been this way. I need you to personally persuade Hina to return to the organization. If you cooperate with me, your business will be much smoother. It's a very good deal."

Right Ring extended his hand in an inviting gesture and said with a smile.

Li Xuan fell silent, staring at the palm of the right ring for a long time.

Finally, he reached out and grasped the palm of the right ring.

Right Jie smiled and said, "This is a wise choice. You truly deserve to be called the War Ghost of Ashikawa. Only those who recognize the situation can be true heroes. So..."

Before Youjie could finish speaking, he felt an intense stinging pain in his palm.

Are you misunderstanding something?

Li Xuan gripped You Jie's hand tightly and said, "You can't leave now, officer."

Right Jie felt an inexplicable, strange force. However, after a moment of silence, instead of being alarmed, he gave a sinister smile.

"Heh, Mr. War Demon, do you really think this trick will work on me?"

The right hand of the ring surged with astonishing and terrifying power, directly countering and pinching Li Xuan's five fingers!

Suddenly, his other hand transformed into a knife shape and stabbed towards Li Xuan's abdomen!

Li Xuan immediately sensed the danger, abruptly withdrew his hand, and leaped back to avoid the perilous attack.

This person's strength is quite astonishing...

"You dodged it. Impressive. You are one of the very few people who can dodge my karate at such close range."

Right Ring praised.

"No, it should be superhuman karate after human modification."

He stared at Li Xuan and added a sentence.

“I advise you not to put up a futile resistance. I’ve already told you, I know everything about you.” Right Ring didn’t pursue further and said, “Oh, right, I almost forgot to tell you, it’s not that I’m incapable of restraining Chu, it’s just that I don’t want to.”

Li Xuan was taken aback and asked, "What are you talking about?"

Right Ring threatened, “We’ve taken corresponding preventative measures for each test subject. For example, we implant a chip in her brain. If needed, we can press a button, and with a ‘bang,’ her head will explode, or… turn her into a real puppet. By the way, have you studied psychiatry? In the moment of greatest despair, a person’s consciousness experiences a deficiency, and the chip can take over all of her body’s brain functions. Unfortunately, we mastered this technology more than a decade ago.”

He smiled and reminded her, "They were all implanted when the experimental subjects were still embryos. She's grown so big now, it's probably impossible to remove them."

The words "scumbag" and "beast" perfectly describe this person.

To take the state... no, to take the dark side of the government as an enemy is extremely irrational.

When Chu was talking to him about the future, she did mention that the organization had performed surgery on her.

He was clearly at a disadvantage; before the fight even started, his chances of winning had been almost completely ruined by his opponent.

However, the conditions for the establishment of the condition are often mutual. Even if he has the life of the chick in his hands, the importance of the chick also prevents him from using that kind of measure. He can still take advantage of it to delay the other party and find a way to defeat them.

Mr. Right Ring adjusted his glasses and asked with a smile, "So, what's your answer, War Ghost? I'm waiting for your reply. If the negotiations break down, I'll immediately resort to my own methods."

It seems the other party won't give him much time to think of a solution.

Li Xuan didn't hesitate to hurl profanities, saying, "Of course you'll be damned, I won't give you anything."

Upon hearing this final answer, Right Ring smiled and said, "The negotiations have broken down. I really hoped to close this deal, but there's nothing I can do. So, you'll have to deal with the consequences of your actions."

What a pity. Mr. Right Ring really hoped that Li Xuan would agree. If he did, the girl in the room would have a mental breakdown, and he would truly have control over her.

He turned and left, but after a few steps, he turned back, gripped his hand tightly, and gave a reminder.

"Remember this: your fate is in my hands. As a wild samurai, you should understand your worth, War Demon."

※※※※

What can we do next?

There's probably nothing we can do.

Li Xuan opened the door and saw Chu hiding inside. He immediately locked the door and apologized to her, "Sorry I'm late."

The little girl rushed over from the entrance and hugged him tightly.

"Is that the person?"

Li Xuan bent down and asked the little chick.

That was the person who deceived her and stole her power.

"...Although we are of different ages, I am certain that he is the school's dean of academic affairs."

The little chick raised its head and looked at Li Xuan, and said.

"That kind of person doesn't deserve to be your teacher."

Li Xuan said to the little chick.

Clearly, the situation is dire, and escape is probably impossible.

So far, Li Xuan's only power lies in this street.

It should be said that, faced with the government's offensive, the escape routes were absolutely blocked, and the only reliable thing was the stability of Qiancang Street.

Li Xuan informed his father of this news, hoping that his father would send people to protect those who had been associated with him for more than a year.

Next, Li Xuan began to lock the doors and windows, seal off all entrances with furniture, and build fortifications inside the house.

Li Xuan propped the sofa against the door, turning the house into a fortress.

Nitta Hina looked terrible as she watched Li Xuan build the fortifications.

This is a desperate situation; no gang or political family can help Li Xuan.

"Little Chu, no matter what happens, don't despair, don't be discouraged. You are my sister, and I promised you I would protect you. Never use that power, and don't leave my vicinity."

Li Xuan bent down and, in the pitch-black house, gave Xiao Chu his instructions.

Even if that force can withstand the pressure for a while, it must never be exposed to the public.

Otherwise, Xiaochu's life would be truly ruined, and the greedy eyes of countless people all over the world would follow her to the ends of the earth.

Chu looked at Li Xuan uneasily, and finally nodded.

Li Xuan rolled up his sleeves, went to the window, and looked out at the street.

As a result, the once deserted street was now filled with a large number of police officers from the Chiba Police Station—fifty, no, more than a hundred—who, armed with weapons and shields, blocked off the street.

Leading the operation was his old friend, Chiba police officer Aso, who personally directed the arrest.

—【Nitta...don't resist anymore, surrender.】

Aso held the microphone, his expression showing he had no desire to do this. Normally, local police would never follow orders from the central command, but he seemed to have received orders that he was in full charge of the arrest operation.

"Officer Aso, I originally thought you were a principled person. Are you one of them too?"

Li Xuan asked through a crack in the window.

—【...Just who is that girl you're raising that you need to resort to such force? I have no choice but to try and fight back to the end, Mr. War Demon.】

Officer Aso remained silent for a moment, then put down the microphone and allowed the officers to begin to break down their defenses.

Suddenly, fifty or sixty Chiba police officers, carrying their tools, marched in a large procession toward Li Xuan's house.

Perhaps this is a desperate struggle, a hopeless endeavor with no chance of victory.

Countless police officers attempted to breach the defenses, but Li Xuan's fortifications were quite effective. In addition, Xiao Chu used her superpowers to hold back the main entrance. Only one piece of glass was broken, and Li Xuan and the police fought for this crucial breakthrough point. The two sides engaged in a fierce battle on the other side of the window.

A sunlit window, countless hands trying to grab someone inside, inside the pitch-black room, Li Xuan alone, along with four or five others, and fifty or sixty people behind him, are all vying for this entrance to life.

The surrounding streets were packed with neighbors who were concerned about the matter.

This shocking news was broadcast on Chiba TV.

— [A yakuza member surnamed Nitta is suspected of abducting a 13-year-old girl for a year. Forty to fifty police officers attempted to break into the house, but encountered fierce resistance from the criminals. The standoff has now lasted for over fifteen hours. Due to the need to protect the hostage, the police have not yet attempted to breach the walls to enter the house…]

When the news was broadcast, the media directly published Li Xuan's photo.

—[Nitta is a key figure in the Chiba yakuza, having been involved in the loan sharking business for three years and rumored to be involved in numerous yakuza conflicts. Although only 22 years old, he is already the fourth-ranking member of the Chiba Ashikawa gumi...]

The situation has become even more serious.

Finally, those in Japan who were interested in the Ashikawa War Demon saw the true face of that urban legend.

Yukino, from the Yukinoshita family, saw this news that was being broadcast everywhere.

Iroha didn't even have time to put on her coat before rushing out the door!

However, Yukino also saw the news broadcast while living alone in her upscale apartment.

When she saw the suspect's face, it was that person; without warning, her remote control slipped from her hand...

After more than ten hours of arduous work, with water and electricity cut off, Li Xuan remained at the window at eight o'clock at night, utterly exhausted.

Fortunately, the police's fighting ability wasn't strong enough, so he could hold out for a while.

"Ah Xuan, here, a cookie."

Xiao Chu kept helping, handing cookies to Li Xuan.

Li Xuan ate a few bites to replenish his energy.
