Shinji Ikari, the pilot of Unit-01 during the Spirit Awakening Era

"Clap clap clap..." Kou took the lead in clapping. Having decided to stop attacking the human world, she looked at Maou Sadao in front of her with admiration in her eyes. "Very terrifying demonic power, very terrifying spatial magic. Just this spatial magic alone, you already have the qualities of a king."

"..." Huang Quan's face stiffened. Without a doubt, this was a gesture of goodwill. The S-ranks around him, including Shigure, who would be fighting against Urameshi Yusuke and the other two in a short time, all began to praise him with admiration.

"Oh?" Maou Sadao looked at the woman in front of him with a somewhat surprised expression. He hadn't expected the woman to make such a decisive judgment, even though it might embarrass her a little. Although he knew it was a gesture of goodwill, he was still very pleased.

"So you sent those two things to the Demon Realm?" Huang Quan said coldly. It could be said that all his plans in a short period of time were destroyed by the other party's counterattack, which pushed him into a competitive environment with the body.

"No, no, no, I didn't have such a reckless plan. I just offered a little help when my friend went crazy." Maou Sadao shook his head. It was Shinji who went crazy. He mobilized all his power to prove that the human world you wanted to attack was not only not helpless, but also a powerful existence that would give you a headache.

After all, according to the human world's understanding of peace, forbearance will not bring peace. On the contrary, only by confronting each other head-on and displaying one's sharp teeth and claws on the table to deter the other party can the peace you desire come to you.

As expected, after hearing Sadao Mao's words, Yomi glanced at him and then looked away in the direction where Unit-01 had disappeared. She said something to someone next to her, and her subordinate nodded. Then, she led more than a dozen of her men and rushed into the battlefield, which was still covered in glass and blood-red smoke.

"So now it's your turn, the three of you!" Sensui watched them leave without making any move, but a smile appeared on his lips. He was somewhat proud of the achievements of his grand-disciples.

He also highly approved of Sadao Mao's plan. Before falling into the Demon World, Sensui Shinobu never imagined that after arriving in the Demon World, he would take another step forward through endless battles. At that time, there was more than one S-rank powerhouse trying to hunt down his head. Only under such heavy pressure and the pressure of life and death can a true martial artist break through his own shackles.

"Ah...yes! After watching this show for so long, my bones are starting to ache." After putting the last bite of his snack into his mouth, Yusuke Urameshi stood up, bounced slightly, and pulled out a sake bottle just like Shinji Ikari's. "Glug, glug!" He took two big gulps and threw it aside.

Hiei caught it and, without hesitation, took a few gulps as well. He then tossed it to Kurama, who drank it all down without a second thought.

Without the slightest hesitation or resentment, the three drank their drinks and prepared to fight. Their resolve was somewhat admirable to the onlookers. However, their behavior made everyone realize that something was amiss.

"Ha!" The first to erupt was Hiei. The bandages on his hands were instantly engulfed by the black flames that erupted. Hiei swung his sword in a circle towards the sky, and the black dragon that roared forth shot straight up into the air. Without any hesitation, it spun once in the sky before crashing down and striking Hiei himself.

Pure black flames instantly erupted from his body, and Hiei did not hesitate. Such an explosive action was obviously at a great cost and could not be sustained, so Hiei immediately chose to launch a strong attack and seize the initiative! Fists and sword blades shrouded in pure black flames continuously attacked Shigure.

"Hey! You've gotten a little stronger since I last saw you." Shigure wasn't worried at all. Hiei was already very strong, but back then he hadn't found his direction yet. Now, it seemed like he had found it a little bit.

As Shigure's giant ring blade spun, it clashed repeatedly with Feiying's longsword wreathed in black flames. The two quickly moved to the side, needing a more open battlefield to unleash their full power. A series of explosions echoed through the air.

However, as an S-rank, Shigure was not someone that Hiei, who had not yet broken through this barrier, could handle. If it weren't for the powerful demonic fire surrounding Hiei, Shigure's ring blades would have almost sliced ​​through Hiei's body several times.

"Huh?" Just as a sword almost severed Hiei's arm, Shigure suddenly jumped back.

It wasn't that he was afraid of Hiei's counterattack, but that just as he leaped up, a huge Spirit Gun whistled past his body. Moreover, it was obvious that Yusuke Urameshi had learned some techniques from fighting Himuro Mimori so many times. This Spirit Gun was even spiraling and accelerating, but it didn't have the terrifying effect of Shinji Ikari after true fusion.

"Ora ora ora!" A truly "raining" iron fist, wrapped in spiritual power, slammed down on Shigure while he was still in mid-air. It was clear that Yusuke Urameshi had already sprinted and jumped after firing the Spirit Gun, aiming his punch at Shigure's position.

but!

"What?!" Shigure revealed a strange smile, and Urameshi Yusuke's expression changed drastically, because his fist did not feel like it had hit anything. Obviously, the other party had predicted his prediction. Urameshi Yusuke subconsciously looked behind him, but there was nothing there!

Above! Nothing!

At that moment, a sudden, intense pain told him the answer! Shigure, who had suddenly attacked from the lower left, kicked Yusuke Urameshi down, blocking Hiei who was about to jump up and join the attack! However, Shigure did not pursue Yusuke Urameshi or attack Hiei. Instead, he used his ring blade to unleash a series of spinning slashes, shattering a series of plant vines. The spinning ring blade also blew away the shattered vines, preventing the poisonous mist above from having any chance to take effect.

All of this exchange happened in the blink of an eye, lasting only a moment! Neither side showed any mercy in their fight; it was a fight to the death, with both sides revealing all their trump cards right from the start!

"This is truly an unexpected situation. Shigure actually failed to take down three A-ranks in such a short time." Huang Quan crossed his arms, feeling Kurama's familiar fox demon power, and sneered, mocking his subordinate.

"Isn't it admirable that the three of them are worth admiring?" Qu didn't care at all and replied directly, then said very bluntly, "I really underestimated them. If it were those useless people you sent to the human world, Qu should have ended the battle in one go."

"Humph!"

Chapter 412 The Return of Unit-01

A massive longsword was being swung by a mass-produced EVA, slashing down at Unit-02. Asuka was about to turn and jump back, but another mass-produced EVA was rushing towards her from behind.

"Hey! Honor student! What are you doing!" With no other choice, Unit-02, under Asuka's control, picked up the double-headed sword on the ground and clashed head-on with the opponent. However, because Unit-02's posture for exerting force was not very good, the result of the collision was that the double-headed sword in her hand was directly knocked away.

"Thump!" Unit-00 threw the double-headed sword in its hand with all its might. The huge sword pierced through two high-rise buildings. The slash of the mass-produced EVA unit that rushed down from behind Unit-02 struck the double-headed sword directly. The collision of the two swords not only created a lot of sparks, but the two buildings could not withstand the huge force and their load-bearing structures were instantly shattered.

The glass panels on the exterior walls of the building shattered at that moment, sending countless pieces of glass flying through the air, flashing with the sparks of clashing blades, and also flashing with the situation that gave everyone a headache.

"Third automatic support fire zone heavily damaged!"

"The 7th VLS launch group has run out of ammunition."

"The 1st Long-Range Rocket Artillery Group has lost contact."

"Heavy naval guns are badly damaged, and only one... all of them have been destroyed!"

……

It's unclear whether the data replicated by the Puppet System truly includes Shinji Ikari's combat awareness as a Hellscreamer. In any case, twenty minutes into the battle, Unit-00 and Unit-02 were already in dire straits. Not to mention, the NERV headquarters staff, who, realizing the situation was dire, gritted their teeth and began close-range fire support, witnessed just how powerless and desperate these fortified cities, with their pre-established positions, were when facing the EVA.

The automatic counterattack system, which nearly annihilated the mercenary force that SEELE had mobilized to attack NERV headquarters, failed to inflict any significant damage on the mass-produced EVAs. Instead, the mass-produced EVAs turned the tables and caused widespread destruction. In just over ten minutes, the mass-produced EVAs proved what Shinji Ikari said in a certain timeline when he lost control after nearly killing his friend.

Within ten minutes, all of NERV's automated defense facilities that dared to show themselves were completely destroyed. Only a few weapons and equipment that Ritsuko Akagi judged from the basic data of EVAs such as Unit-01, Unit-00, and Unit-02, to be meaningless to attack, such as small-caliber automatic cannons and some small anti-aircraft missiles, were left unused, which is why they have survived until now.

"I never knew before how terrifying it was to have three EVAs piloted by Shinji." Misato Katsuragi sighed. Apart from the two mass-produced EVAs that were initially destroyed by the surprise attack from Unit-00 and Unit-02, the remaining seven mass-produced EVAs, led by three of them equipped with Shinji Ikari's data, actually formed a coordinated attack. Four EVAs stayed behind to besiege Unit-00 and Unit-02, while the other three went all out to attack the automatic attack system.

"Their data has been analyzed! It's not all the data I provided. Those bastards must have set up a secret base in Tokyo-3 to collect Shinji Ikari's data." Ritsuko Akagi stared coldly at the flashing data before her, a cold sneer playing on her lips. "You think I'm making up a story, so you sent people to collect the data yourselves? You think that's enough?"

To this, Ritsuko Akagi could only say, "Ha! Naive!"

Because Shinji Ikari's strength grows rapidly in leaps and bounds, in a sense, every time Shinji pilots an EVA, his combat data changes dramatically. Therefore, as the EVA Unit-01, there is almost no data continuity, which makes it look very chaotic and illogical.

but!

His story, written by Akagi-sensei, is supported by factual data. The data you guys collected only includes some external data and has no internal data from EVA to support it. Therefore, SEELE still inevitably uses the data written by Akagi Ritsuko to support its story.

The result... naturally, was a complete distortion and loss of shape.

Even under these circumstances, the mass-produced models still displayed considerable combat power. The tactics they employed during their group attacks were so skillful that even the NERV command staff, accustomed to Shinji Ikari's overwhelming power, had to admit that this was no easy choice.

"So..." Asuka roared, her eyes wide and her face contorted with rage. As the battle dragged on, she regained her rhythm. "Can't you do something real?! Huh! Is that guy flying in the sky here to help or not?! Ayato, what are you doing?!"

It's no wonder Asuka was furious. Anyone would be terrified and enraged if a powerful light blade were thrust directly in front of them, piercing through a massive skyscraper and blasting it into the ground! Not to mention that Asuka herself has a rather fiery temper.

"Huff...huff..." Ayato Kamina didn't argue with Asuka. In the short few days he spent studying there, he deeply understood what Shinji Ikari had said: "Arguing with women is a waste of time, and you're bound to lose, even if you win." Besides, the arrow of light he had just fired wasn't aimed at Unit-02, but rather it was deflected by the EVA unit in front of him, which could fly mysteriously through the sky. "This spear...something's strange!"

The Winged God Seine piloted by Ayato Kamina unleashed powerful light blades and arrows of light. When fighting against the weapons of the MU Empire, they were basically dead if they were grazed or touched. Even when they were causing trouble for the Babem Foundation, the unfinished EVA unit released by the other side (it's unclear whether the American branch had three, four, or five units; one was destroyed, one went berserk, and it's assumed there's still one left) never encountered a weapon that could withstand the light blades. It was nowhere near as troublesome as this guy in front of them!

"Shinji's friend is indeed no ordinary person," Kaworu said with a smile. He had been learning to fight through the battles and had grown rapidly. "Don't misunderstand, our battle is not easy."

"Heh... all this rambling." Ayato Kamina glanced at the situation on the ground. With most of NERV headquarters' automated weapon systems destroyed, the three mass-produced EVA units, now freed up, were rapidly approaching the battlefield. Everyone present knew that once these three units returned to the battlefield, the fighting on the ground would fundamentally change, and Unit-00 and Unit-02 would face a huge crisis! "You don't seem to be giving it your all! What are you waiting for? Or is there reinforcement coming?"

"What I'm waiting for... is naturally the person who will definitely come." Kaworu Nagisa raised his body slightly and easily dodged Winged God Seine's slash, then turned his head to look at the other side, where the tremors of space were already clearly visible. "After all, it's not easy to come here. Wouldn't it be a great pity if we didn't see the person?"

"Hmm?" Ayato Kamina noticed it too, or rather, Yone Winged God noticed it. After all, it was the enemy that had caused it the most damage so far, and it was very difficult for her not to remember Unit-01 and Shinji Ikari. "This guy, it seems he finally got over there and is back? But where are my senior brothers?"

As Unit-01 stepped out, Shinji Ikari immediately noticed the change in his surroundings. He wanted to turn around and check on his back, but it was too late. The spatial portal vanished, and Unit-01 returned to Tokyo-3.

"Damn it!" Shinji Ikari, piloting Unit-01, charged headlong into the nearest mass-produced EVA without a second thought. He flipped it over, and simultaneously, his already charged hand swiftly pierced the EVA's ribs. The Blazing Finger unleashed its power instantly, causing the mass-produced EVA's chest cavity to explode, revealing its core, pierced by the Blazing Finger.

"Hmm..." Ayato Kamina noticed the dark red core, the color of human blood! He inexplicably thought of the cores of the Apostles he had seen before; even the way they cracked and shattered was so similar...

"Six left...!" Shinji Ikari glanced around, ducked to avoid the double-headed sword aimed at Unit-01's neck, and immediately moved closer, preparing to repeat his previous tactic. However, to his surprise, the mass-produced EVA opposite him simply discarded the double-headed sword, took a half-step forward, and unleashed a series of punches in a posture that Shinji Ikari was very familiar with.

"Shinji! Some of the mass-produced units used your data!" Misato Katsuragi saw Shinji Ikari return, but the Angels didn't come back with him. How could she not know what had happened over there? In any case, the fact that Unit-01 was able to return successfully meant that it was already more than half a success!

"Me?" This sentence made Shinji Ikari somewhat amused and exasperated. "You really know your stuff!" At that moment, Unit-01 suddenly retaliated, grabbing the wrist of the mass-produced machine in response to the attack, and then delivered a heavy blow to the chest before slamming it to the ground. "However, with such terrible moves, I'll get beaten to a pulp by that old man from the East. Since he's not here, I'll reluctantly do it."

With the burst of airflow, Unit-01 rushed towards the mass-produced EVAs that were rushing back from a distance. After a series of afterimage-like kicks swept across, all three mass-produced EVAs were blown away!

The unit closest to Shinji Ikari, Unit-01, was once again unleashed with its Blazing Finger, and viciously pierced through its body from behind, causing its core to explode.

"Five left!"

"Baka Shinji! Why didn't you come sooner!"

Chapter 413 The Power of Intergenerational Inheritance

With a loud "thud," Yusuke Urameshi was sent flying. While still in mid-air, he coughed up a mouthful of blood. When he landed, Yusuke Urameshi's eyes had almost rolled back. His body was covered with cuts, the most fatal of which was a huge slash to his chest!

Shigure's massive ring blade is not only a sharp greatsword, but also an extremely heavy weapon. Once wielded, it combines offense and defense with immense power and weight, causing Hiei, who wields a short sword, to suffer greatly as a result.

"Tch..." Fei Ying barely managed to deflect the Shigure Ring Blade, glanced at Urameshi Yusuke lying on the ground, his life hanging in the balance, gritted his teeth, and a complex emotion suddenly surfaced in his eyes. After all, it wasn't easy for him to have a reliable friend, especially after dealing with a series of important missions issued by the Spirit World. The three of them were close friends who had gone through life and death together!

Lancer's eccentric friend, who was a fast-food restaurant manager in the human world, had told them from the beginning not to count on his help. Their chance lay in this life-or-death battle!

Hiei wasn't surprised at all. Every fighter grows through life-or-death battles. Even in the Himuro mansion, when Toguro instructed the three of them, he showed no mercy, launching attacks on them and even Shinji Ikari without any hesitation, giving 120% of his strength. It was once a terrifying nightmare for the three of them!

However! It was at this moment that the three of them crossed the B-level boundary and became the cornerstone for reaching S-level.

After confirming this, Toguro-nii embarked on his own path. His path was made exceptionally difficult by his forced reincarnation as a yokai, but Toguro-nii had made up his mind that if it was possible, he would want to see it for himself.

When he set off, the Huanhai Dojo saw him off.

“This has nothing to do with atonement; this is the price you have to pay,” Huanhai said.

Hiei himself was no different. In order to achieve a higher goal, he even implanted an evil eye and destroyed all his power. Otherwise, Hiei, who was already an A-rank demon, could have killed Yusuke Urameshi with just one finger when they first met.

"Cough cough..." Kurama coughed up blood, clutching his arm as he exited his fox demon form. But Kurama didn't care; his mind was rapidly analyzing the situation! Their initial attack had indeed caused some trouble for Shigure, but such a reckless attack couldn't last long.

Shigure saw this very clearly, so at that stage, Shigure was not in a hurry to fight them. Since he could easily defeat them, why should he put in too much effort?

Sure enough, it didn't take long for Hiei to maintain his self-destructive fighting style, which involved using the Black Dragon Wave to bombard himself and causing the Demon Realm to declare that it was attached to him—a tactic that resulted in heavy losses on both sides. When Hiei withdrew from this state, he understood one thing perfectly: their offensive was over!

Although Yusuke Urameshi's spiritual power was still abundant, Kurama's demonic power was still terrifying, and Hiei's speed was still dazzling! However, it was time for Shigure, the S-class demon, to begin to show his power! The three of them had already done their best to hold on until now.

"Hey, you three, you're not just going to... " Shigure, wielding his ring blade, looked at the three lying on the ground with a relatively relaxed air. Unlike Anxie, who used his fists, he wasn't so easy to talk to. Although being punched might cause some internal injuries, as long as it wasn't a direct fatal wound, a strong person with vigorous vitality wouldn't fall down in a short time. "Weak, aren't you? You two are somewhat famous in the Demon Realm."

"..." Fei Ying gritted his teeth, looked down at his palm, and realized that he had just forced out a Black Dragon Wave, which had caused severe burns to his arm. Now, even holding a sword was extremely difficult.

"The battle isn't over yet, is it?" Wiping his mouth, Kurama was somewhat speechless. His opponent was extremely cautious about his demonic plants, even giving up several excellent opportunities. It was just a pity that he had only just arrived in the demonic realm and didn't have time to collect some powerful demonic plants. The ones he had could only serve as a restraining force.

"If that's all there is to it, then... it seems you can prepare for the end today." Gently wielding his ring sword in an attack stance, he knew these three were indeed at their last gasp. He had given them the chance he hoped for, but they didn't seem to have grown to the point where they could fight him head-on. The only threat was the unpredictable demonic plants in Kurama's hands. Even if they didn't kill him, just getting stuck with them would make him feel nauseous for a long time.

"It's a pity that the Shinji Ikari you're talking about has been sent back." Shigure glanced at Sadao Maou, who was standing not far away with his arms crossed, and Shinobu Sensui, who had his hands in his pockets. These two guys exuded a power that made him very wary, and they were obviously at least on the same level as him. "Otherwise, you could have traveled together."

"Hey, that guy's way stronger than you." Fei Ying suddenly spoke, then moved abruptly, reappearing behind Shi Yu. "But do you think you can leave here alive today?"

"Or do you think this kind of trick can win?" Another stroke of blood was added to the thick blood on the ground, but it was not Shigure's, but Feiying's, who launched the surprise attack. The ring-pommel sword almost cut Feiying's body open, and the huge wound directly exposed his internal organs.

Kurama, lashing out with his long whip, slightly disturbed Shigure, who was not far away. At the same time, he directly recognized a seed in Hiei's eyes, determined to at least keep Hiei alive.

"That's it?" Shigure grabbed Kurama by the neck and slammed his head into the ground.

"It seems the battle is over..." Huang Quan waved his hand. He had thought that the other party and the body had put on such a charade, and he had hoped that there would be something new and interesting about it. But it seemed that it was a bit of a waste of time.

"..." Koku didn't say anything, but looked at Maou Sadao with some doubt. This guy should have been able to take Urameshi and the others away, but... "Hmm?" Koku noticed that Maou Sadao was looking at Urameshi Yusuke, who was about to have his head cut off by Shigure, with an interested look. She followed Maou Sadao's gaze and frowned the moment his eyes moved over.

Of course, Huang Quan, who had already turned and left, also frowned. With his head slightly turned to the side, Huang Quan's brows were tightly furrowed!

At that moment, it was as if something had suddenly broken through Yusuke Urameshi's body, and a soaring demonic aura began to erupt from him! Both he and his companion were certain that the Yusuke Urameshi before them was a completely human being! This powerful demonic aura!?

Sensui Shinobu was also completely bewildered. Yomi and Kuro, who had plenty of information, couldn't understand it at all. Even Kurama and Hiei, who had always acted together, were shocked.

The two men lying in a pool of blood struggled to their feet and looked at their friend, but they were shocked after just one glance! This was no longer the Urameshi they knew! He had completely begun to deviate from the path of humanity! His once jet-black short hair had now turned an eerie pale, and his skin had begun to tinge with an unsettling black.

"Shinji...didn't leave behind the Divine Mirror!" This thought swirled in Kurama's mind. They had both witnessed the despair-inducing figure of Unit-01 under the power of the evil god! At this moment, Yusuke Urameshi truly possessed a terrifying aura!

"!" Shigure was only stunned for a moment before leaping backward, and at the same time, the ring blade in his hand began to spin again, sealing off most of the space in front of him.

The result of doing so only brought Shigure a stronger sense of fear. A claw suddenly broke through the defensive circle in front of him and grabbed his body directly. No matter how hard he tried to dodge, five deep, bone-revealing bloodstains suddenly appeared on his chest, a body that had not been injured in today's battle!

That wasn't all. In the next instant, Shiyu found a foot heading straight for his face! But at that moment, his backward leap hadn't landed yet, so he could only lean back as far as he could, trying his best to dodge. As a result, the foot landed squarely on his chest, and the terrifying force almost instantly emptied all the air from his lungs.

"Damn it... This is... Lei Chan's demonic power? What has he mixed in?" Huang Quan hesitated for a moment, but still recognized the very distinctive aura. However, this added a lot of doubts to his mind. Because of his weakness, Lei Chan had always stayed quietly in his capital city, and only his closest relatives could see him. But today, he actually spared no effort to project his enormous power onto this young man's body?

"Interesting!" Qu glanced at Huang Quan's unpleasant expression, then looked with some emotion at Maou Sadao not far away. The truth was undeniable; even if it seemed completely illogical, the moment it happened, it proved that this young man was indeed related to Lei Chan! "Was this also part of your calculations?"

"Yes, that's interesting! Is this what they call skipping generations and inheriting genetic traits?"

Chapter 414 Did Yusuke Urameshi win?

"Although I don't understand what's going on, I really didn't expect that I would actually have the opportunity to meet a Dou Di!" Shi Yu didn't feel any fear because of Yusuke Urameshi's sudden surge in fighting power. On the contrary, he was also excited. This battle, which was originally meaningless, suddenly became valuable.

As a current S-rank powerhouse, Shi Yu had witnessed the battle of "Dou Di" Lei Chan a long time ago. It was such a reckless and chaotic barrage of attacks. Faced with absolute speed and overwhelming power, no matter what kind of tricks you used, they would be completely futile.

Even though Shi Yu himself has grown into an S-level powerhouse over the years, Lei Chan has been constantly weakening due to some special reasons. However, the gap between the two is still as deep as a chasm, and the power of the Dou Di is still something he can only dream of.

At this point, Shigure truly unleashed his full power, launching a fierce attack with arc-shaped slashes that swept across the battlefield! Even Maou Sadao and the others, who were watching from afar, felt a slight stinging sensation on their skin as the slashes passed over them.

Simultaneously, Yusuke Urameshi unleashed waves of energy that surged forth. He yelled and swung his fists, relentlessly striking Shigure through the gaps in her sword strikes. Both were quickly covered in blood, but neither showed any sign of stopping. They continued to dodge and weave through each other's attacks, relentlessly attacking one another. The battlefield expanded with their movements, causing mountains to crumble, lakes to dry up, and rivers to collapse, displaying a destructive power no less than that of Unit-01!

"..." Kuro's gaze drifted slightly to the side. Just now, Sensui Ninja suddenly rushed to the edge of the battlefield and pulled out Kurama and Hiei, who were already seriously injured and had been caught up in the battle between two S-ranks. However, after glancing at the unwilling expressions on their faces, Kuro sneered, "He really is a guy who likes to do unnecessary things."

"Are you in pain? Are you angry?" Maou Sadao reached into his pouch and took out two chocolate-covered liqueurs that Shinji Ikari had given him as snacks. He casually tossed them to Hiei and Kurama. "This is the despair of the weak. Your friend paid the price of what was probably the most precious thing to him to save your lives. Don't waste it."

"..." Hiei caught the chocolate, his charred hands digging deep into the ground, leaving five bloody gashes. His face was contorted with rage. Yes, Urameshi Yusuke had paid the ultimate price, the price they had paid to survive...

"Crunch..." Kurama coldly tossed the chocolate into his mouth, refusing it. Feeling the hot blood flowing through his body, he gritted his teeth. He didn't resent Shinji Ikari for asking them to carry out this mission, nor did he resent Shinobu Sensui and Sadao Maou, who were standing aside seemingly watching the show.

From the very beginning, Shinji Ikari made it clear to them that these two weren't babysitters; they likely had their own plans and schemes for going to the Demon World. Shinji's guess was correct. When Shinji's Unit-01 attempted to rush towards them and take them back, Sadao Maou, seemingly unconcerned, cast a spell and sent Unit-01 back. He was Shinji's friend.

But he's not Urameshi's friend!

Yusuke Urameshi's current state is clearly not normal, and Shigure, whom he is currently fighting, is no weakling. In the Demon World, every S-rank character has paved their path by stepping on mountains of strong corpses! To say that Yusuke Urameshi in this state would care about them is extremely difficult for Kurama and Hiei themselves. It's already a pleasant surprise that Sensui Shinobu is willing to lend them a hand. At least they still have the life to be angry and regretful.

"Just watch closely. I don't know if this can last. If it doesn't last long, your friend will probably die, but his death seems to cause quite a stir." Sensui Shinobu glanced at the two who were clearly in very bad shape, but with Maou Sadao adding fuel to the fire, they were still trying to gather their strength, clearly planning to fight to the death in the very end if Urameshi Yusuke couldn't win. Sensui Shinobu... seemed to look into the distance with a hint of envy. He seemed to have had such a friend before.

"However, I'm curious about something." Huang Quan sensed the fluctuations on the battlefield, conjuring up images of the intense battle between Shigure and Urameshi Yusuke in his mind. As he felt it, he wondered what it would be like for a "Battle Emperor" to possess a young and strong body. "You seem to know something! Even though you've never been to the Demon Realm before."

"Yes, we haven't been here," Sadao Maou said with a smile, arms crossed. "But Shinji's sister is no ordinary person. She sensed a special potential hidden deep within Yusuke Urameshi's bloodline." That's what it means to have a powerful figure by your side when making up stories, especially with these mystical concepts like reincarnation, heredity, and soul inheritance. Who dares say that the Demon God isn't a professional?! He's the pinnacle of spiritual beings!
