Great, we're doomed now!

Human experiments in the Indian subcontinent, the Americas, Southeast Asia, Africa... have collected a wealth of data, ensuring that scholars never lack research material.

It's not that no one doubts the source of these data and samples, but some scholars can be bribed with money, some can be tempted with their reputation, some are frustrated in their careers, and some are naive enough to be exploited...

Those who have no desires can use their family members as a threat!

No one in this world is without weaknesses.

Karasuma Renya waited and hoped in fear... But who could have imagined that the young master of the Kuse family would do such a thing, even affecting him?

Monsters, these abnormal life forms that defy the laws of evolution and physics, are coveted research subjects for biologists, and the Karasuma family is naturally extremely interested in them as well.

Although the Kuze family and TPC strictly control monster remains, it's impossible to say that none are missed.

The "King Zigela Zoga" that appeared in the Arctic Ocean had its body completely destroyed at the cellular level by Ultraman's light power, but many fragments fell into the deep sea during the battle. TPC conducted a long salvage operation, but the Karasuma family's team was lucky enough to find a piece of vine.

Scientists have extracted an essence from it, which, when injected into the spine, can give cells powerful vitality and significantly improve signs of aging.

By combining it with previously researched unstable drugs, it is possible to achieve rejuvenation without side effects!

【APTX4869】—This miraculous elixir was born!

Karasuma Renya's current appearance is a result of this, and he has absolutely no intention of revealing it.

On the contrary, after the plastic surgery, he only left behind enough medicine to last for two hundred years, and disposed of all the scientists, research data, samples and so on!

Karasuma Renya's past has also been erased!

The darkness of his family will be buried forever, and he will have a brand new life!

Finally, finally I can get rid of all that curse...

I will never let this second life go to waste. From now on, as Karasuma Sōren, I will work alongside geniuses like Kūze Yōkō to guide humanity toward a brighter future!

Beep~~~

The phone rang, and Karasuma Sōren took out his phone and glanced at it.

However, after the call connected, another aged voice automatically sounded and began the conversation—he was merely listening as a third party.

The "organization" he established involves many illegal industries, so it naturally cannot be associated with him personally.

Therefore, his "shadow warrior" has always acted as the boss, while he uses technological means to monitor and issue orders through the "shadow warrior".

In fact, after he successfully reversed his aging process, he had already considered cutting ties with the organization, since exposing himself would damage his illustrious image.

Although the Karasuma family's affairs weren't a big deal in the world's high-level circles, and there were many people in Western circles who even he found bizarre, he had already transcended that world and didn't need to get involved with that poisonous swamp anymore.

However, this kind of exchange of benefits cannot be severed so easily.

With the advancement of technology into the 21st century, there is practically no room for organized crime to survive, especially transnational organizations. Any organization that can operate in the underworld must have the tentacles of certain capital or even countries manipulating it.

The infamous 9/11 attacks were a case of the tentacles accidentally going too far and being bitten back by the puppets.

There are a large number of "unidentified individuals" in the Black Organization. Although there has been no full investigation, it is certain that they include everyone from the CIA to MI5. Given that there are so many loopholes, how come they have managed to remain intact until now?

These are ancient families who share the same goals as the Karasuma clan, secretly exerting their influence.

One of the reasons why Lianye does not disclose the formula is this:

The essence is an extract of Zigela, which cannot be artificially manufactured at the moment, and its limited quantity will inevitably lead to competition.

If it were just about stealing medicine, that would be one thing, but what if those people thought that Renye was a human tonic?

No kidding, they really will do it!

Therefore, Renya needs the complete death of all social relationships so that Karasuma Sōren can move forward without any worries. In addition, it would be best to eliminate all members of the Black Organization!

Then, as long as we latch onto the coattails of the Kuze Group and TPC, we'll be set for life.

It's quite poignant to think about it now. It was Junpei and Sawai who inspired him to start the idea of ​​reform... Now he has finally succeeded, and the foundation they built has become his lifeline for getting back on his feet.

What a wonderful coincidence!

"...What? It failed?"

An aged voice said heavily on the phone, "Can't he even do such a simple thing right?"

"No, Big Brother succeeded. He has recovered and destroyed all the items."

The other person sounded like a simple and honest man: "But he's in a little trouble right now..."

After a moment, Zong Lian frowned deeply, and the old voice on the phone sounded extremely surprised.

"W-what do you mean he was stripped naked by a large group of naked men?"

Are you trying to fool me?!

"No, no, no, how could I dare!"

What's wrong with Gin?

Zong Lian's eyes narrowed, a dangerous glint flashing within them.

In order to erase his past, he naturally had to clean up things like photos. Fortunately, he didn't have many connections with people. Apart from Kuze and Sawai, he couldn't reach them. Most of his classmates' homes had been secretly searched.

Then there's the diving club that holds the most memories, and the seaside house they frequented, including the wetsuit he used, the commemorative photos he took, and the diving certificate he replaced...

The task was not difficult but quite important, so he had the Shadow Warrior send a capable henchman to handle it.

This person is "Qin Jiu".

Gin, though only a cadre in the organization, is an extremely excellent hound, loyal and aggressive, with impeccable professional skills, ranking among the top even in intelligence organizations of various countries.

This kind of person is unlikely to interfere with work for nonsensical reasons...

With his strength, how could he possibly be manipulated by ordinary people?

Could it be that he sensed the Black Organization was about to be abandoned and was deliberately causing trouble?

If that's the case, this child must not be allowed to live!

"My older brother was playing games with the people there to investigate where the items were stored... He just drank a few extra cups of oolong tea and inexplicably fell asleep. When he woke up... he didn't tell me anything."

Vodka said frantically on the other end of the phone, "But the mission is already complete... Big Brother wants to request additional operations, could we...?"

"Didn't I tell you long ago, you're not allowed to touch the people there?!"

We mustn't allow any unforeseen complications, especially that anyone from the diving club gets hurt... Whatever happened, get him back as soon as possible; new tasks await him!

The shadow warrior hung up the phone without any politeness, and Karasuma Sōren, who had been listening in, breathed a sigh of relief and was completely at ease.

It seems Gin didn't suspect the organization. After drinking the oolong tea, he was indeed stripped naked, which is normal!

"Very good, maintain full surveillance on him."

Inside the office, Ye Shou was on the phone with his subordinates.

This is a highly skilled special operations unit. From intelligence gathering and logistics to operations personnel, everyone is a rigorously trained professional. The team that Ye Shou entrusted with finding the satellite of the pyramids was promoted two levels after completing the mission and was also incorporated into the unit.

The agents' current surveillance target is "Karasuma Sōren".

Upon first meeting him, Ye Shou immediately sensed the other man's true age and even guessed roughly what methods he used to rejuvenate... Qi Jiela's essence!

The smell was so strong in the ancient atmosphere that it made your throat feel nauseous!

Dare to touch this thing?

This is no longer an ordinary criminal gang; we must take strong measures!

We must find out where this thing came from!

It wasn't just targeting Karasuma Sōren, but also the black-clad organization he controlled behind the scenes, commonly known as "The Winery".

The technique he used to disguise remote control was as rudimentary as a child's craft project to TPC, and they hacked into it with ease. They are now breaking down the chain of command and locking onto the personnel list.

Even Gin's attempt to destroy traces of the past was discovered, and a reverse investigation has begun.

In fact, if the goal was simply to deal with the Karasuma family's power, they could have already closed the net now; it would have been a piece of cake for Ye Shou.

But this time he has a deeper plan, which is to expose the ancient families involved in this dark side, those "vampire elders" hidden under the regime!

This is an existence bound to distorted beliefs, completely alienated in spirit, more evil than capital, and uglier than feudal lords. It is deeply rooted in all parts of human civilization like a maggot clinging to a bone, and its presence can be seen from east to west.

(Here's a very interesting phenomenon:)

The Old World has developed some resistance because it has been entangled with them for a long time, but newer civilizations are more easily corrupted from the root.

Therefore, from Eurasia to the Americas, countries and regions that are eager to integrate into the "civilized world" and abandon their own traditional culture and folk beliefs often breed cults. The more completely they abandon these traditions, the more rampant the cults become.

Ye Shou originally had no energy to deal with these things, after all, it was like a cancer in human civilization that could never be completely eradicated, and he also had to face a more direct and terrifying threat.

But now that we're involved with Qi Jie, we can't care about anything else!

It's better to kill the innocent than let the guilty go free!

I'll send a Gundam to send you all to heaven!

Even if it leads to one or two wars, Ye Shou is willing to do so—he has even made sufficient preparations.

Otherwise, if these guys become "believers" in R'lyeh and use their influence to spread their faith... then it won't be as simple as just killing a few people!

The Karasuma family is a long-established clan. As the saying goes, pulling up a radish brings out the mud. By following their network of connections, even if we can't completely wipe them out, we can at least keep them in check for a while.

After we've passed the Great Conch Shell, we'll establish a defense system that can systematically eradicate cults!

Ye Shou had already discussed it privately with Sawai Soichiro, and the director generally agreed, but instructed Ye Shou to be mindful of the secrecy of the operation.

The good news is that these "vampires" pass on their knowledge in an extremely secretive way to avoid being discovered by ordinary people, making it easier to control information when it's time to eliminate them...

Even better news is that old families often have family trees, which they might even have drawn on the walls—

How can something be so convenient? It's so thoughtful!

beep~

The special agent team called, and Ye Shou picked up the phone to answer.

The fact that he personally intervened shows how important this matter is to him.

"Hello? Hmm... Good, very good... Seaside House? Going to a place like that to destroy evidence... Club commemorative photos? I see."

"Yes, yes, investigate everything, record and archive... Huh? Say it again?"

A moment later, Ye Shou looked puzzled:

What do you mean you found my dad's nude photos?!
