On the other side, Yukino Yukinoshita, who was sitting next to him, keenly noticed his anxiety and turned her head slightly.

Uh...that!

Meeting the girl's concerned gaze, Duan Zilian felt a tightness in her heart.

He forced down the panic on his face, clutched his stomach with both hands, and showed a pained expression.

"I think... I have a bit of diarrhea. I need to go to the toilet."

"Huh? Going to the toilet?!"

Sitting on the other side, Hiratsuka Shizuka leaned over with a displeased look and questioned him.

"Didn't you just go there once? You brat, are you some kind of toilet god?!"

"Maybe I really am, haha..."

Duan Zilian made up some nonsense, then stood up in a panic and ran towards the passageway behind the stands.

"You guys go ahead and look. I don't know how long I'll be squatting here, so don't wait for me."

Watching the boy's retreating figure like a rabbit, Yukino Yukinoshita suddenly felt a little nervous.

She instinctively raised her hand to grab the hem of her dress fluttering in the wind, but then stopped and finally let it fall limply.

…………

Beside her, Yukinoshita looked thoughtfully at her sister's hand hanging in mid-air, and then at the direction where Danji Rei had disappeared.

【Um……?】

…………

"Boom—Boom boom!!!"

At the starting line, the engine warm-up sound had reached its peak.

Forty-nine riders lined up in the starting grid, their throttles ready to go, as if they were about to burst into action at any moment.

The roar of the engines penetrated the electromagnetic sensing system and resonated with everyone present, igniting their passion.

Because of this significant increase in electromagnetic consumption, the screen above the arena once again displayed a large amount of glaring static and garbled text.

"hateful."

Shinomiya Yunying's heart skipped a beat, and the phone in his hand rang again with the urgent voice of the technical director.

"Master, it's really no use! The electromagnetic system and multi-camera switching on site are consuming too much power, and the communication tower's power has been reduced to 90%."

"Then overclock it to the maximum, 100%! No, 120%!!!"

"No, Patriarch! This intensity is currently prohibited by the TPC; it will disrupt the ecological balance of the ionosphere!!"

"It's just a race, at most thirty minutes. What kind of ecosystem can thirty minutes destroy? This is an order!"

Shinomiya Un'yō's face was contorted like a demon, and his tone was one of absolute dictatorship that could not be resisted.

"……Yes."

The phone hangs up.

Shinomiya Un'taka straightened his disheveled suit and looked at Shinomiya Kaguya on the other side with lingering fear.

Kaguya didn't look at him; her gaze was fixed anxiously on the track below, her eyes filled with resentment and worry.

[Kaguya Shinomiya, watch closely, this is the most perfect match I've ever arranged.]

Shigu Yunying sneered inwardly.

…………

"Now! Let me hear your roars!"

"Roar! Advance! Fight!!!"

As Di Yejin's almost manic commentary came to an end, a deafening countdown erupted from the stands.

At the very front of the track.

Marina Kazama stared intently through her helmet at the five red lights that were lighting up one after another above her.

Fly, Marina, and together with Hayasaka, prove the existence of the wind on this track.

Her mind was highly focused at that moment.

The noise of tens of thousands of people around her was automatically filtered out by her perfect pitch.

In her world, all that remained were the five red lights ahead that were about to go out.

However, in the next moment, she suddenly heard a strange sound.

“…Waaaaaahh ...

The sound was extremely brief and faint, as if it could be blown away by the wind at any moment.

But Marina did hear it.

That's... a baby crying?!

Mari's heart skipped a beat.

"Ooo ...

The cheers from the audience reached their peak, and all five red lights were on.

Marina snapped out of her daze; she didn't have time to think about these things anymore.

Her left hand gripped the clutch tightly, while her right hand turned the accelerator to the redline.

Finally—in milliseconds, all five red lights went out simultaneously!

"Now!"

Marina instantly released the clutch, and the CB1300 sprang up like a black panther.

This beast, personally tuned by Hideki Go and completely devoid of electronic components, emerged and sped off!

However, the next second.

Marina's eyes widened suddenly under her helmet. She slammed on the front brake and slammed on the rear brake with her right foot.

The next second, Marina executed a fierce side slide, forcefully turning the car back to a stop in the middle of the track.

The previously explosive cheers in the stands suddenly and eerily ceased at that moment.

Tens of thousands of eyes were fixed on the incredibly bizarre scene on the track.

"Rumble..."

At this moment, only Marina's motorcycle was still making a steady engine sound on the track.

Directly in front of her, the remaining 48 drivers were all paralyzed in place.

Some people were thrown directly onto roadside billboards due to the resistance caused by the engine suddenly shutting off.

The riders scrambled to their feet, removed their helmets, and frantically pounded on their motorcycle dashboards in horror.

"What's going on?! Why did my engine suddenly lock up?!"

"Fuck! My dashboard is black! And the ignition isn't working!!"

Languages ​​from various countries converged into a terrifying cacophony on the racetrack.

This bizarre and absurd scene, arguably the most bizarre in racing history, was broadcast to the world.

Inside the VIP box.

"What happened?! How could it have turned out like this?!"

Shinomiya Un'yō slammed his fist on the table and stood up, staring in disbelief at the convoy below, where the entire group had died suddenly.

He frantically grabbed the phone, wanting to yell and question the dispatch center.

But the next second, the phone he was holding to his ear suddenly emitted a piercing static sound.

"Zzzzzzz!!!"

"Ugh!"

Yunying screamed and quickly threw the phone away.

………………

Chapter 266 The Hero Who Saved Everyone

…………

"Hooray?! Unbelievable! Such a turn of events has occurred right at the start of this high-speed, high-octane race!!!"

On the high-altitude commentary platform, Di Yejin seemed completely unaffected by this unexpected turn of events.

He still held the microphone, his long hair flying like a lion's mane.

"Except for that black motorcycle, all the steel beasts were present at this moment—"

"Buzz... Buzz—!"

Just as Di Yejin was about to bring the atmosphere to its climax, the microphone in his hand emitted a muffled crackling sound and then went completely silent.

The piercing noise was like the flipping of some kind of switch.

Immediately afterwards, the broadcast screen above the audience seats went black.

The high-end massage chairs in the VIP seats stopped working, and the screens of the phones held up by the audience members to record videos all went black and shut down in an instant.

"...?!"

"What's wrong? Why won't my phone turn on?"

"Is there a power outage? Even if the power's out, your phone shouldn't be off!"

Outside the arena, at GUTS' defensive line.

"Oh no!!" Lina exclaimed in alarm as she looked at the microcomputer on the car.

"What's wrong, Lina!" Daigo and Shinjo immediately came over.

Lina frantically patted the screen: "Just now, the electromagnetic field in this area suddenly spiked, exceeding the limit set by conventional instruments! Now..."

Before she could finish speaking, the Sherlock car suddenly made a muffled sound, and the headlights flashed twice before going out completely.

"Due to the abnormal magnetic field, all electronic devices within a radius of several kilometers lost power."

Lina gritted her teeth and looked at the two of them.

The next second, a terrifying sound pierced down from the clouds in the sky.

"Waaaaaahh ...

Daigo and Shinjo tensed up instantly, their pupils contracting sharply.

"That voice... there's no mistake!" Daigo clenched his fist tightly.

"It's the Lightning Men!!! They're here!"

…………

Inside, the piercing cry, like that of a newborn baby, startled everyone, who hurriedly covered their ears.

At the top of the stands, Mikado Yasuhira stood with his arms crossed, staring expressionlessly at the rolling black clouds.

The next moment, the clouds were violently torn apart.

A colossal object suddenly descended upon the sky above Chiba.

It has a gaping mouth resembling that of a deep-sea anglerfish, and a flat body covered in fleshy growths, making it look like a deformed manta ray.

Those long, narrow, yellow eyes looked like those of a demon in the clouds.

The electromagnetic mutant monster—Gazort!!

"Oh my god...it's a monster!!!"

"The monster has appeared again!!"

Panic erupted instantly among tens of thousands of spectators, and the crowd surged frantically toward the exits.
