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

With just one sentence, Misato Katsuragi easily convinced most people: "What we need to make them fear is not a few strong individuals, but the concept of humanity itself." When she said this, Misato Katsuragi's eyes shone brightly, and even Rei Ayanami glanced at her a few more times.

Therefore, the entire plan changed from an initial elite force launching a direct surprise attack to having elite troops participate in the Dark Tournament to attract the attention of these demons, while the main human force launched a direct surprise attack.

"Hmph, so in just a few days, you'll have your best chance." Toguro picked up his plate and parted ways with Shinji Ikari. The demons quickly distanced themselves from the capricious former champion, after all, no one wanted to be the next corpse lying on the ground.

Shinji Ikari watched Toguro's departing figure, his eyes narrowing slightly. For a moment, he was unsure which side Toguro was on. The phrase "it will be alright in a few days," and the act of killing the chef who had clearly overheard their conversation, made Shinji feel something was amiss. In addition, Shinji vaguely remembered that in the future, it seemed that all the organizers of the Dark Tournament had been eliminated... and it really was Sakyo who had Toguro do it.

"He came looking for you?" Shinji Ikari returned to his seat, and as soon as he sat down, Mei Isayama asked. Toguro's actions just now had quite a commotion. The headless corpse had only just been carried out, and another trembling demon had just taken over the position. It was hard for Mei Isayama not to notice.

"Yes, he came to find me. It seems that he treated Yusuke Urameshi as an appetizer, while I treated him as the main course." Shinji Ikari shrugged helplessly. Judging from his current performance, he, with his Holy Light Aura and Himuro Style, is indeed stronger than Yusuke Urameshi. He wondered if Yusuke Urameshi would unleash another burst of power when facing Toguro's brother, just like in the original story.

"An appetizer? This guy..." Mei Isayama rolled his eyes speechlessly, "He probably won't even make it to the finals."

“Speaking of which, he reminded me of a fact.” Shinji Ikari looked at Mei Isayama, Emi Yusa, and Satoru Gojo, who had somehow joined them, and said, “The Japanese government and the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department are like a leaky sieve. The news must have already leaked out, and many big fish have already started to flee. However, they also know very well that the real target of this attack is not them.”

"Oh..." Mei Isayama smiled with a hint of amusement, smoothing a strand of long hair behind his ear. "Big guy, big wisdom, huh? So you just went ahead and confessed?"

"Why should I confess?" Shinji Ikari shrugged. "They have their calculations, and we have our plans. It's perfectly normal." Shinji Ikari tore open the bun in his hand and put bacon inside. "We just need to believe one thing: he's not an ally."

"It really does seem to be true..."

Chapter 258 Shinji Ikari = Tang Monk's Flesh?

"Is this the warning you received?" Yakushiji Ryoko leaned against a rock, now wearing a diving suit. From the restless glances her subordinates occasionally gave her, and from Izumida Junichiro, who refused to face her no matter what, she could understand the terrifying effect this diving suit had on her.

"Yes, but who knows how many days that will be? So my personal advice is to ignore them and proceed at our own pace," Shinji Ikari said, sitting cross-legged and holding a satellite phone. Only those with Shinji witnessed what happened today. Given Toguro's status, killing a demon chef might simply be because the other person's gaze was off; no one cared why. However, the information he revealed was quite interesting.

“Based on the analysis of the outsiders I invited, 1. They’re going to cause trouble too. It’ll happen in the next few days; 2. This matter may involve the Dark Tournament itself. After all, according to legend, the victor can make a wish, and Sakyo wants to keep it all to himself, so he hopes to delay things until after the tournament ends; as for the third point, maybe Toguro’s brother wants to kill me with his own hands.” Shinji Ikari said with a wry smile.

"Oh ho..." Yakushiji Ryoko's eyes flickered. "So suddenly smart, huh? Able to analyze so much? Did you call for outside support? Was it Katsuragi Misato, the one who devised the plan?"

"Misato is very smart, but she's a total unlucky girl with absolutely no talent in this area or in matters of the heart." Shinji Ikari curled his lip, not wanting to elaborate, and simply stated it. After all, Conan had ridiculed him a few times yesterday, and there was no need to elaborate on how much the two of them disliked each other. Now that Shinji had actually come to him with questions, how could Conan possibly gain any verbal advantage? Wouldn't that be a huge loss for Conan?

Shinji, who needed Shinji's help, naturally couldn't refuse. As a result, Conan, who had been tricked by Shinji before, was completely victorious this time. Shinji's phone call almost turned into a humiliation for Conan. However, Conan understood the importance of the matter and helped Shinji analyze the psychological activities of the people present. But what he was more curious about was the mentality of Toguro's brother.

After Shinji Ikari briefly described what he knew about Toguro's younger brother, Conan remained silent for a moment, then asked in a very curious tone, "Do you think it's possible that deep down he still hates demons, but he wants to become stronger, and becoming a demon is the fastest shortcut?"

"We'll only know after we fight." Shinji Ikari sighed. From the current perspective, the situation in the human world, at least in Japan, is terrible. Basically, if we look for the root cause, the fact that Sensui Shinobi himself fell into depravity and then slaughtered the upper and middle-level combat forces of humanity is unavoidable!

If Honda Shinichiro hadn't fought a desperate battle with Sensui Shinobu, dying in the process, and then Sensui Shinobu disappearing without a trace, seemingly falling into the demon world, then at least the entire Japanese human tradition of the underworld might have been lost.

When Shinji Ikari revealed his legacy, he wasn't met with enemies from all sides. Instead, after others discovered his legacy, they not only didn't say anything, but some powerful figures who had experienced similar situations even offered a helping hand. They should definitely thank their past selves...

In a sense, this is why NERV's intelligence department was collectively targeted when they went to the Countermeasures Bureau, the Onmyoji Bureau, and the Jujutsu Association to request information about Shinji Ikari. Shinji Ikari's faction is a convoluted and unpredictable group; you simply don't know whether it's better to just chop him down or invite him to dinner.

“I understand the general situation. We do have a window of opportunity, but it's not long. This beachhead is suitable for my men to land, but the main force shouldn't even think about it. I also need to replenish some supplies. This will take about two days. I hope there won't be any more problems by then.” Seeing Shinji Ikari's frankness, Ryoko Yakushiji naturally didn't press him for details. Everyone has secrets, and besides, there are quite a few smart people like him in the world. It's perfectly normal for Shinji to consult one of them.

However, it was precisely because she wasn't very interested that she missed out on a major scoop: Shinji Ikari, known as a star student and a super genius, one of the most prominent figures among the younger generation in the entire supernatural world, was actually consulting an elementary school student for information. If Ryoko Yashiji found out, she would probably have even more amusement.

May Conan run wildly down the road to being dissected, never looking back.mp4

"Then let's stay in touch." After hearing Ryoko Yakushiji's confirmation, Shinji Ikari hung up the satellite phone, put it into his foil pouch, and then signaled to Kirie Himuro that she could put away her barrier.

"No need to be so careful." Himuro Kirie waved her hand, and the barrier ropes retracted into her sleeves from all directions. She was somewhat dissatisfied this morning. Although she went out with Mimori and was watching her to prevent him from running around, to be honest, the feeling of being watched by all sorts of people made Himuro Kirie very annoyed.

As an exceptionally outstanding human powerhouse, Shinji Ikari naturally attracted a lot of attention. Both the contestants and the sponsors behind some of them were very wary of Lancer and his team, and naturally tried every means to obtain all relevant information about Shinji Ikari.

This same treatment extended to the teams sent by the Onmyoji Bureau and the Countermeasures Bureau, while the sorcerer team, which had seemingly been a weak team in their first battle and ended up badly injured, was relatively ignored. Everyone simply erected barriers to prevent these bastards from spying.

As for Shinji Ikari and his group, they didn't seem to care much. They were completely in a relaxed state, as if saying, "Look if you want to watch." This surprised many people, to the point of making them suspicious. After all, Shinji Ikari was the only male in his team. Even if they weren't afraid of leaks, most strong female members would be more cautious.

The reason is actually quite simple: no matter how strong an individual is, what would they do if they were eyeing a living, malevolent god?! Himuro Kirie didn't even exert any force, yet the resentment emanating from her body automatically rebounded, leaving the opponent severely injured and on the verge of death. Not to mention the subsequent conscious curse from Himuro Kirie. Anyone who didn't die on the spot was already at least past the B-rank threshold.

The final result is that, apart from those who died on the spot, there are still more than a dozen demons struggling there, bleeding from all seven orifices. They are visibly breathing less and less, and it is estimated that they will not survive for long. It won't be long before they can call the hotel service. However, the hotel service will probably take a while, since no one can withstand a sudden increase in business volume.

"But we can't trouble you too much, sister." Shinji Ikari sighed. Although Himuro Kirie didn't care, Shinji still had to think things through for her. Last time, although Himuro Kirie didn't fully explain, Shinji realized that she did have the potential to go further. However, it seemed that if she committed too many killings, it would cause a lot of trouble. After all, according to Himuro Kirie's book, every evil god was a "divine punishment" that shouldn't exist!

Shinji Ikari just couldn't understand it. His older sister, a shut-in who never offended anyone, was practically untouchable unless you were courting death and wandered into the Himuro mansion! Not to mention, his sister had voluntarily hung on the door, guarding the broken paper gate of the Demon World for so long for some lazy god. She deserved some credit, even if she hadn't done anything particularly meritorious. Even if it was a capitalist's 996 work schedule, you'd still have to pay her some overtime pay, right? And divine retribution?! What's there to be divine retribution for? Are you crazy?

(To the hearse, thank you so much!)

Of course, this perception may only exist among Shinji Ikari. In the eyes of others, Himuro Kirie is a genuine evil god with overwhelming resentment, the master of the Himuro mansion, a super big shot who can crush A-rank or even those who have just stepped into the S-rank with a single move, one of the ancestors of the Onmyo-ryo, and Shinji Ikari's super big brother (licking, scratch that).

"Good to know." Himuro Kirie reached out and tapped Shinji Ikari on the head, then pointed to the door, indicating that Shinji could go and supervise his sister's ki training. Himuro Kirie didn't see anything wrong with protecting her younger siblings; in fact, she felt it was her duty. But to be fair, her younger siblings were not exactly easy to take care of.

If Himuro Mimori, with her overwhelming curiosity and drive, is the type who'll be climbing on the roof if you don't discipline her for three days, then Shinji Ikari is definitely the kind of troublemaker who seems calm and wise, but is actually either not causing trouble at all, or causing huge trouble! Himuro Kirie has lost all sense of how many times she's lost her composure! Thinking this, Himuro Kirie reached into her divine mirror and pulled out the latest tablet that Shinji Ikari had bought for her.

It's nothing. In her environment, after a while, the motherboards just start breaking down. If it's just hardware damage due to the dampness, that's one thing; you can just send it to the Onmyoji Bureau outside for repairs. But occasionally, maybe because of the special environment, these motherboards will act up, become sentient, or be possessed by a broken spirit or something. For example, Himuro Kirie, who was happily watching anime or dramas, would suddenly perform some kind of gibberish and strange laugh, and then Himuro Kirie, with a furrowed brow, would feed it to her pet on the spot.

Therefore, Himuro Kirie's electrical appliances actually wear out quite quickly, but she never runs out. Shinji Ikari would occasionally go over to check on her, and if any were broken, he would buy her a new one. Or, if a broken appliance was taken by the Onmyoji Bureau, they would give Himuro Kirie the same model as it. If necessary, they would simply remove the storage software and replace it...

Just kidding! Everything that the evil spirit Himuro Kirie used was a powerful tool imbued with the purest resentment and power. Who would be stupid enough to repair it or use it to deal with malevolent spirits? These broken small appliances are basically weapons! What are you thinking?! You can't buy things like that with money! At least the Onmyoji Bureau actually tried to seal an A-rank evil spirit with a rice cooker, and these clever guys actually succeeded!

Although it was only a temporary seal, and then it was resealed using traditional methods, it was still an incredible achievement! Combined with the automatic exorcism device invented by Aso Yuu, which has already begun to be promoted, at least within Japan, all kinds of evil spirits, malevolent spirits, and vengeful spirits are really starting to have a hard time!

Therefore, for the Onmyodo, the benefits of having such a powerful figure are truly unimaginable. In comparison, the situation in Minakami Village is slightly less impressive.

Currently, there is only one microwave oven that has been possessed, but it has been unexpectedly trained by Himuro Kirie. It now knows how to control the time and temperature of microwave heating food according to the number and force of Himuro Kirie's slaps each time.

Shinji Ikari was very impressed with this, but he wondered if Himuro Kirie would just slap the microwave to death if she wanted to grill a steak or something.

“Okay!” Shinji Ikari stood up. Himuro Mimori had been living a very comfortable life these past two days. Basically, whenever she had free time, she would happily play games with Mei Isayama. Because of their strong talents, one of them had the bloodline of a dragon starting to take effect. The three talents of lightning, fire, and water, plus the terrifying demonic power, were rapidly transforming Mei Isayama. He could almost become stronger just by sitting down.

Compared to Himuro Mimori, her talent is even more terrifying. In short... nothing else matters, she has already passed the Heavenly Tribulation! The Onmyo Bureau has spared no effort in creating a body for her, so where is her growth ceiling? At least Shinji Ikari really doesn't know. Moreover, when learning "Himuro Style," it might be more appropriate to describe it as getting stronger with every breath.

So Shinji Ikari really didn't know what he could teach Himuro Mimori. Before, he was just playing a game with Himuro Mimori in a real battle, letting Himuro Mimori experience the dangers of life-or-death battles. It's not something you can win just by shouting out the names of moves. And judging from the previous battle, Himuro Mimori learned well, although it was a bit expensive. But the Onmyōryō didn't mind. Later, Izumo no Okuni, under the guise of congratulations, gave Himuro Mimori double the amount of talismans.

"Hmph!" Shinji Ikari sat down in front of Mimori Himuro, crossing his legs. Mimori Himuro tossed aside the controller, knowing that Shinji Ikari would definitely not let her off the hook, and that she probably couldn't escape this training session. She immediately started groaning.

"Hahaha... Little girl, there are no shortcuts on the road to becoming stronger! Let's train together! I'll train too!" Although Mei Isayama herself also had techniques for training her body, it was obviously not at the same level as being able to kick and destroy a large mecha that was nearly twenty meters tall and weighed tens of tons. So after the "Himuro-ryu" style was semi-publicized, she also learned a part of it.

"Hehehe! Brother! Holy Light!" Himuro Mimori made a face at Isayama Mei. Who said there are no shortcuts! Me! As long as my spirit is strong, that's enough! And directly absorbing Shinji Ikari's Holy Light is the best method, or at least one of them!

"You're here too!? Why is everyone eyeing me?! Am I some kind of Tang Monk's flesh?!" Shinji Ikari's smile vanished as he looked at Emi Yusa beside him.

"Hahaha... What a pity! Otherwise I would have wanted one too!"

"Fuck you!"

"Huang Quan is downstairs, go! Go and have your way with her!"

"Tsk!"

Chapter 259 The Roar of the Flood Dragon!

"Hehehe... Little brat, your fists don't hurt me at all!" A tall and strong demon laughed and patted his belly. He was worried that the little brat would play with his talismans like before. If she showed him the agility she had shown that day, he would have a hard time fighting her.

The little one immediately followed up with a lunge punch! To be fair, for a girl her age to be able to throw that punch is already quite terrifying; calling her a genius wouldn't be an exaggeration. But today…

The demon in front of them, as the vanguard of the "Demon Realm Berserker" team, laughed wildly and patted his belly. The little guy punched hard, but it only made his big belly "duang" a few times before dissipating the impact. It was like being hit by a small stick, and it didn't hurt or itch at all, let alone cause any serious injury.

"Hmph! I'll count to seven, and you'll be dead, you believe me!" Himuro Mimori put her hands on her hips, looking like she was ready to kill this loser today! Completely oblivious to the fact that her current demeanor gave Himuro Kirie, who was behind her, some unpleasant thoughts. Where did this little girl learn such a tough attitude?! Today's "loving spur" has definitely paid off!

"Hahahaha... Little girl! Your joke is really good." The demon in front of him laughed wildly. He simply didn't believe that this little girl with thin arms and legs, who didn't have much fat on her body, could hurt him. "I can stand here and let you hit me seven times, and you still can't kill me. What do you mean by counting to seven and I'm doomed?"

"Then I'll count~" Himuro Mimori said with a grin. This big oaf didn't even notice that he had patted his belly, and the screen had already given a close-up! Eh... his punch was just a decoy (Himuro Mimori would never admit it, it was because he didn't hit this guy, and he almost flew away, so he took advantage of the other's daze to make a dirty move).

"Count away... After you finish counting, I'm going to eat you!" The demon gripped the huge cleaver tightly, raised it high, and said with a sinister grin, "I don't even need to count to seven. With this one strike, you're already dead!"

"Pfft... Sorry, sorry, I just couldn't help it. Shinji, you little brats from the Himuro family really know how to have fun... Hahaha... So funny! Hahaha!" Izumo no Okuni laughed so hard that he was shaking, and he even slapped the railing in front of him without any regard for his manners. Behind him, a large group of demons looked at Izumo no Okuni with ferocious expressions.

"What are you looking at, you bunch of weaklings! Look again and I'll twist your heads off and use them as a snack!" Whether it was because he was really annoyed by being stared at, or because he was somewhat trembling with fear at the prospect of facing such a big scene right after leaving the mountain, Kozenki seemed to prefer the unrestrained style of Izumo no Okuni. In any case, Kozenki clenched his fist and roared loudly.

At this point, no demon had the list to ignore the short, stout guy in front of them. They had all witnessed what a ferocious and powerful demon this little brat would become after being unsealed. In the previous battle at the Yin-Yang Bureau, he had crushed one, stomped on another, and torn another to shreds. The strongest one was killed by his Vajra Horn! The remaining one was surrounded and hacked down by the other three shrine maidens and died a terrible death.

"This kind of little guy is so lovable!" On the other side, Gojo Satoru slightly lifted his blindfold, looking at Himuro Kirie on the stage, who was waving her hands and acting cute towards the powerful demon opposite her. His face was full of smiles. Although he eventually entrusted this spirit to Ikari Shinji, and Ikari Shinji directly handed it over to Himuro Kirie, letting another fierce god take care of this spirit with fierce god blood, it was really... too interesting! And this personality of hers is actually a bit like mine, which is great!

"Hmph..." Izayama Yomi sighed, shaking her head as she covered her head. The other agents from the Countermeasures Bureau grinned.

When they entered the arena today, this little girl shouted loudly, "Sister-in-law!" In an instant, both she and Shinji Ikari were taken aback. Shinji tapped Mimori on the head (and then Shinji's fist hurt terribly; what's a hard head? Mimori's skull is made of a high-strength alloy, much harder than iron!), and asked her why she was talking nonsense.

The little guy immediately betrayed Isayama Mei, "Hey! Didn't Mei-neechan say she wanted Isayama Yomi-neechan to go on a blind date with you? Isn't that what all the characters in my sister's dramas do? It's called being a matchmaker?! You heartless brother!"

Shinji Ikari sighed deeply, then pressed Himuro Kirie's forehead and apologized to Yomi Isayama, "My younger sister is young and naive, and took the joke seriously. I hope it didn't cause you any trouble. I'm sorry."

At the time, Yomi Isayama just smiled and let it go. After all, theoretically, she had a fiancé and Shinji Ikari had a girlfriend, which was common knowledge. Moreover, the two of them rarely communicated. Furthermore, Mei Isayama was Shinji's teammate, and they didn't get along very well. It was already a great restraint of them not to fight when they met. Naturally, it was impossible for her to have any good feelings towards Shinji.

"Actually... I think it's really pretty good..." But! But! If these teammates don't cause trouble, can they even be called teammates? Especially since they benefited a lot before, but when they were beaten up by Shinji Ikari, weren't they the ones who really felt the pain? So two or three teammates immediately started to think that turning an "incident" into a "story" seemed like a pretty good idea.

"..." Seeing his teammates starting to talk nonsense, Isayama Yomi directly placed his hand on his sword to shut them up.

"Oh, don't be shy. My Shinji is very popular. You just have to wait in line. Ryoko doesn't count. He also has a very pretty girl at home. And recently, another colleague of his named... Hey! Why are you wielding a sword to attack people?" Izumo no Okuni naturally knew what had happened that morning, so she simply went over and started teasing him. Izayama Yomi didn't tolerate her and drew her sword to attack.

"Can't you just watch the game properly?" Fushiguro Megumi glanced at the commotion on the side, then turned back to continue watching the game.

"Seven!" At this moment, the person on stage who had been shouting for a long time, "I counted!" "I really counted!" "What if you die if you counted!" After delaying for a long time, Himuro Mimori directly pointed out the middle finger with her right hand, and then put on a happy smile and directly announced 7.

The demons in the arena watched this scene in shock. During this match, they shouted themselves hoarse, wanting to teach this little girl a lesson, to tear her to pieces, and to see her blood splattered on the arena! So they were all shouting wildly! That's why so many demons glared at me when Izumo no Okuni laughed and slammed her fist on the wall.

But now, the surging lightning began to flash, and the screams of the demon, which was several times the size of Himuro Mimori, rang out. In an instant, the surging lightning turned the giant demon into charred remains. After falling to the ground and kicking up a cloud of dust, it was completely lifeless.

"Ptooey... ptooey..." Himuro Mimori choked on the dust and quickly spat twice. She then noticed that because she was standing too close, the thunder had also lifted her clothes when it erupted, leaving her covered in black and gray dust. Himuro Mimori suddenly shrank her neck and stiffly turned slightly to look at Himuro Kirie behind her.

Although Himuro Kirie was wearing a veil, Himuro Mimori couldn't see her expression or eyes at all. However, judging from her older sister's clenched fists, she knew that her fate wouldn't be good today. "I'm doomed!" Himuro Mimori tapped her head and immediately made a decision: she couldn't play anymore. If she did, she would be tied to the ceiling fan and have to spend the night on the highest setting.

So, just as the next demon jumped up to deliver a threatening remark, Himuro Mimori shouted, "My clothes are torn! I surrender!" and leaped off the ring! Then she tried to hug Himuro Kirie and act cute, being hung up was the upper limit of what she could tolerate, but not the maximum! Last time she was almost thrown out of her body! That wretched brother! He actually came up with such a thrilling… I mean, vicious method! And he taught it to his sister!

"Wipe your face!" Shinji Ikari stopped the clumsy girl, caught the wet wipes thrown to him by the shrine maidens, and with a look of disgust, tried to wipe Himuro Mimori's face. Himuro Mimori hugged Shinji Ikari with a look of "I'm so touched".

"Oh my! What a wonderful brother-sister relationship! I'm so envious!" The guide wiped his eyes and said with envy. Among demons, kinship is a very luxurious thing for most of them.

"Tch!" Fei Ying turned his face away. He wasn't envious at all.

"Hahaha... You guys are really overthinking things." Mei Isayama stepped onto the stage. Is the little guy really that close to Shinji Ikari? How could that be? As for Mimori Himuro, she wouldn't hold a grudge against Kirie Himuro for disciplining her. But as for Shinji Ikari, who often plays the role of an accomplice, the little guy's attitude, while not exactly a fight to the death, is that the two of them can still make Mei Isayama laugh out loud at their mutual pranks.

Just like now, the little guy isn't actually wanting to hug his brother out of gratitude. It's more like, "I can't be the only one who gets dirty. As long as Shinji Ikari gets involved, my sister won't beat him too hard just because there's only one dirty one!"

"Hmph! She was a little girl just now, and she's still a little girl now! Is that man in your team wimping out? Let him come up here!" This time, the demon slammed the huge axe he was carrying directly into the ground, the heavy axe creating a huge crack in the arena!

“Once I’m dealt with, he’ll naturally come up.” Izayama Mei picked at his ear. “They all have such loud voices, they’re something else!”

Ever since Shinji Ikari set the rules in the opening match, all teams have adopted this rather cruel rule: either you surrender, or you fight to the last person, continuing until there is no one left. What a damn best-of-five series, that doesn't exist! Of course, you can also choose to have all your players participate in a free-for-all to the death, just like the Onmyo-ryo match.

"Hmph! So be it, I'll kill you! And then I'll kill him!" The demon didn't even wait for the little rabbit to announce the start before grabbing his huge battle axe and charging forward, his heavy footsteps shattering every thick stone slab on the arena.

The demons in the stands began to clamor again. That bastard was too careless, just like that idiot before, he was careless just because he saw that his opponent was a little girl! Hmph, now is the time to show our true strength, it's not as easy as before to win!

"Split her!"

"Let that human die."

……

"It's really... noisy! I suddenly understand why Shinji fired a Purple Flame Bullet at you guys!" Mei Isayama's eyes suddenly turned into the vertical pupils of a dragon, and then his demonic power exploded instantly! Terrifying demonic power began to impact the entire venue.

"Too late! Watch me cleave you in two!" This demon swung his axe, only now unleashing his power? What a foolish choice! He was about to cleave this woman in two with a single blow, and then just as easily cleave the useless coward hiding under her skirt!

"Hey! You're really strong!" The dull thud and the burst of air swept across the venue again. Isayama Mei's cool voice came out. Layers of scales covered her body, like a heavy suit of armor. She had grown about 20 cm taller. She was clenching her teeth and gripping the axe blade with her hands clasped together!

"How is this possible!" the demon roared immediately, but at the same time, he was secretly delighted. A contest of strength with him? That was exactly what he excelled at! This woman was courting death!

"Hey!" Isayama Mei continued to exert force with both palms, and soon, in the struggle between the two sides, the first to give in was the axe, which had completely borne the force of both sides. With a tooth-grinding sound, the axe handle, perhaps due to a weak point in the forging, suddenly shattered!

The demon was stunned. He couldn't believe that this tiny human female possessed such terrifying strength!

Isayama Mei seized the opportunity and suddenly moved closer, her fists flying. When they first merged, she was already able to smash the laboratory covered with 50mm armor plates. After so much time has passed, her fists have become even more terrifying and powerful!

Like a sandbag, the demon, relentlessly pounded by Mei Isayama, was finally sent flying. Mei Isayama, as usual, wanted to chase after it, but suddenly stopped. "Hey, I'll try it too..."

I took a deep breath...

"The dragon roars!"

Chapter 260 Gone Mad (Revised)

The shockwave struck the spectator stands behind, slicing through the sloping platform and sending a large number of "lucky" spectators flying. It tore a huge hole in the stands before heading straight for the VIP section. Whether intentionally or unintentionally, the shockwave struck none other than the private room of Zuo Jing, one of the organizers of the Dark Martial Arts Tournament!

The wealthy merchants and important figures in Zuo Jing's room instantly showed fear on their faces. Seeing the blood-red shockwave rushing towards them without any obstruction, they completely lost control. Some opened the door and ran away, some covered their heads and ran away, and some grabbed people in front of them to block them. For a moment, it was a complete mess of chaos.

Looking at this scene, no matter from any angle, Mei Isayama's move was clearly a provocation, or rather, an attempt to kill him to silence him.

"This is really too ugly..." Zuo Jing, who was sitting calmly on the sidelines, sighed. "Let's stop it, or everyone will lose their last bit of dignity." After saying this, he turned his head slightly, then shook his head with a smile. This monkey show was really good. A bunch of good-for-nothings who were usually high and mighty had now made such a mess of things and had completely disregarded their dignity.

"Hmph! Interesting little girl!" With a rip off of her coat, Toguro-nii's muscles bulged all over her body. As she mobilized her terrifying demonic power, Toguro-nii instantly transformed into a muscular demon. She then threw a punch at the oncoming attack, shattering the shockwave released by Isayama Mei head-on.

The group of dignitaries, their faces still showing shock, stared in utter horror at the scene before them. Many immediately began shouting, their lives threatened, now clamoring to kill Isayama Mei, who had unleashed the attack. They didn't even know to learn from their teammates! His earlier move, where he simply pulled back, was a clear signal to let them pass!

They were completely absorbed in watching others die at such close range! Now that this fate has befallen them, they are angrily shouting to kill Isayama Mei and let her taste their rage!

Listening to the ugly behavior of the people behind him, Zuo Jing shook his head with a wry smile. From Toguro's actions, he could tell that the woman in front of him was already quite powerful. If he wanted to defeat and ravage her in a crushing manner, as these idiots behind him thought, there would be some powerful demons, but at least they would have to be relatively strong demons among the A-rank demons.

Demons of this level rarely obey orders willingly. Even Toguro's brother is not simply a superior-subordinate relationship with him; rather, they share similar values, which is why Toguro's brother is willing to follow his commands.
