Jotaro Kujo has experimented with this power.
With this power, he can form a hard black shell on his body at any time, his hands can become sharp blades that can cut steel, he can easily jump more than ten meters high, and the strength of one hand is enough to lift a heavy car.
What Jotaro Kujo can be sure of is that the power in him and the power in those lunatics are the same thing.
This power exists in his body, in the air... and in those monsters that Theresa calls the dead soldiers.
The only difference between him and the dead soldiers is that he is stronger and still retains his sanity.
"…So, this power is Honkai energy?"
Looking at the empty street outside the alley, which was only blocked by cars, Jotaro Kujo thought: "Is the current situation in Tokyo the coming of collapse?"
"And I am a person who can adapt to Honkai energy?"
"If what Theresa said is true, then what I should do now is to control the scale of hunting those dead men and prevent the birth of the superior beings Theresa mentioned."
Thinking of this, Jotaro Kujo frowned.
It should be noted that in recent years, due to the gradual easing of diplomatic relations between Xinming and the Holy Britannian Empire, the number of foreign population in Tokyo has been increasing year by year. Now, including the local population, the population of Tokyo has reached nearly 10 million.
Even if not everyone was infected, many people ran away, and the main infection area was only in Tokyo's central concession, there were still millions of dead people there.
...and if he wanted to reduce the size of his death squad, he would have to kill hundreds of thousands, or even millions, of those who were...at least once living people.
Jotaro Kujo believed in his own strength at this moment. If the dead soldiers were just the weak guys he had come into contact with, and the other Honkai adaptors were as strong as himself, then it would only be a matter of time to destroy millions of dead soldiers.
But the question is whether Jotaro Kujo should believe what Theresa says?
Thinking of this, Jotaro's expression gradually became serious.
"...No, you can't trust her so easily."
The information that Theresa said was too vague.
Where is the so-called quantum sea where they are trapped?
What happened to their so-called destiny of saving the world?
There must be something happening behind this that Jotaro doesn't know about... Jotaro Kujo believes that he will pay the price for acting blindly without figuring out everything.
"…So the most important thing to do now is to look for all possible clues and piece together the truth yourself?"
"In this case, maybe I can use some official power?"
Jotaro Kujo muttered to himself as he lowered his head in thought.
If I were to investigate from the beginning myself, it would be too difficult in the current chaos in Tokyo.
It is better to use the power of the official.
Although he experienced the suppression of Japan by the Holy Britannian Empire and the abandonment of Japan by Shinmei, which turned Japan into District 11, Jotaro Kujo no longer trusts any government.
However, Jotaro Kujo still admitted that the government had more information and power.
But if there is official assistance, then we can find the place where the initial collapse occurred, and if a huge organization like Tianming really exists, maybe we can also find some clues about their existence...
"So for now, we can only put aside our personal likes and dislikes and try to contact the government of District 11."
Thinking of this, Jotaro Kujo turned and walked towards the outskirts of Tokyo.
The whole of Tokyo is now in chaos. The top government officials have already evacuated Tokyo, but if they were not idiots, they would have deployed control and rescue troops around Tokyo.
Through them you should be able to connect with someone who is sufficiently qualified.
Chapter 10: Provisional House
Just when Jotaro Kujo had high hopes for the top leaders of District 11, the top leaders of District 11 were also holding an emergency meeting regarding the changes in Tokyo.
At the podium at the front of the Provisional Parliament in Yokohama, an obese middle-aged man, the deputy governor of the 11th District, was wiping the sweat from his face while speaking to the many parliamentarians opposite him.
"…Therefore, Tokyo has been completely blocked by the self-defense forces of District 11. We will wait for the help of the Holy Britannia Empire. We will not do anything before the Empire's investigation team arrives."
As an overseas colony of the Holy Britannian Empire, District 11 adopted the unified colonial management model of the Holy Britannian Empire.
That is, the Holy Britannian Empire appointed two governors, one chief and one deputy, and formed a parliament through local elections to manage these colonies.
In theory, it should be a system in which local parliamentarians and the governor appointed by the empire restrain each other to maintain a balance, thus taking into account both the needs of the empire and the development of the colonies.
However, in actual operation, it is often the governor appointed by the empire who controls the entire ruling class, and the locally elected members of parliament are often just running dogs.
But District 11 is an exception.
Because it is too close to the New Ming Federation and is affected by its radiation, and because District 11 has only recently been ruled by the Holy Britannian Empire, the members of District 11 have greater autonomy than other colonial areas of the Holy Britannian Empire.
This has led to the current situation.
In the absence of the Governor, the Deputy Governor was unable to suppress the Parliament at all, so much so that as soon as he finished speaking, a middle-aged man with a steady face stood up and objected without hesitation.
"I object!"
"How many people were evacuated from Tokyo during the three-day evacuation? Five million? Or six million?"
"There are at least 100 million ordinary people in Tokyo who need our rescue. If we retreat at this time, how should we face the accountability later?"
"Should we tell them that when they needed our help, we chose to ignore them!"
"We must investigate the conspiracy behind this and send troops to Tokyo to rescue the trapped civilians at all costs!"
"...This." The deputy governor wiped the sweat from his face and spoke unclearly.
He didn't care about the accountability later, nor did he care how many people died. As the deputy governor appointed by the Holy Britannian Empire, he was only responsible to the empire, not to the people of District 11.
The outbreak of this unknown plague in Tokyo is enough to cause him trouble. Anyway, most of the imperial immigrants live in the concessions, and most of them died in the first round of outbreak. The rest are all people from District 11.
Moreover, even among the people in District 11, most of the rich and powerful people had received the news early and escaped. As for the remaining rich and powerful who did not escape, 80% of them were already dead.
As for the ordinary people in District 11 who didn't get the news... he didn't care whether those people were dead or alive. Now as the deputy governor, he just wanted to control the plague in Tokyo, cut off all contact, and prevent further spread.
He doesn't care even if it means sacrificing all the ordinary people still in Tokyo.
And no one knows whether the Empire is behind the plague that broke out in Tokyo, the capital of District 11.
He knows several secret research institutes in the Tokyo area... What if he interferes and exposes the empire's fig leaf?
Thinking of this, the timid deputy governor sweated even more.
But the deputy governor could not say these words, and the man who was opposing him was Genbu Kururugi, a well-known opponent in the District 11 council. It was said that he had private connections with terrorists in District 11, and the deputy governor did not want to offend him.
"...Well, the suggestion made by Councillor Kururugi also makes sense..."
"but……"
"I think……"
The deputy governor began to stammer and for a moment he couldn't even utter a complete sentence.
But at this moment, a beautiful woman with bright white hair, wearing a yellow robe and slightly turning an exquisite traditional Xin Ming style pipe in her hand, chuckled and rescued the deputy governor.
"What Councillor Kururugi said is really interesting. It's not like you didn't see the information just now."
"This time it's not 'terrorists', but an unknown infectious disease. In just three days, most of Tokyo has fallen, and the number of infected people has exceeded one million. If the blockade is lifted, I'm afraid it will soon spread to the entire 11th district."
At this point, the woman who emphasized the word "terrorist" glanced at the people in the parliament, looking at the people with different expressions and said: "We can evacuate from Tokyo to Yokohama, but where can we evacuate from District 11?"
"And everyone, please don't forget that there are many empty seats around you, and many of your colleagues have disappeared in District 11."
"I think no one here wants to personally experience the feeling of being hunted by countless lunatics who want to eat you, right?"
The deputy governor heaved a sigh of relief at the woman's words and nodded to her in thanks.
"As expected of the leader of the pro-Imperial faction in District 11's council, Ningguang is indeed trustworthy."
The deputy governor's favorable impression on this troublesome woman surged.
But the next moment, he shrank back and looked away from Ningguang.
After all, if Kururugi Genbu is said to have connections with terrorists... then Ningguang is openly recruiting thugs. Thinking of the rumors related to Ningguang, the deputy governor couldn't help but shrink his head.
No matter what the deputy governor thought, after Ningguang spoke up in the parliament, the pro-Imperial faction also agreed.
As for the opposition, except for Kururugi Genbu, they were already frightened by the Honkai energy and had no real intention of stopping the blockade, so they all remained silent.
For a moment, the parliament, which had always been at loggerheads and would argue for several days over even a small issue, suddenly reached a brief consensus.
Seeing that the situation was set without support, even Kururugi Genbu could not resist the entire parliament. He said as if struggling for the last time: "But... at least we should organize an army to rescue the survivors!"
"There are still millions of ordinary people in Tokyo waiting for rescue. We can't give up on them!"
Ningguang raised the corner of her mouth slightly and opened her mouth to say something.
Obviously, Ningguang wanted to add insult to injury for this old rival's rare surrender.
However, the deputy governor who was watching the two of them saw that Kururugi Genbu had already given in, and for fear of any accidents, he quickly gave in. He no longer insisted on his initial opposition to any action, but immediately agreed.
"No problem. The Empire has always been caring for its citizens. I will send an official document to let the army organize a rescue team!"
After hearing this, Kururugi Genbu, who had no reason to continue, could only nod helplessly and sit back.
Although Ningguang on the side was somewhat dissatisfied, she nodded slightly and stopped talking.
Seeing that the matter was finally resolved, the deputy governor couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief, wiped the sweat from his face, and thought silently.
"Right now, the entire parliament is relying on the opposition and the pro-empire faction to check and balance each other... As the deputy governor, I can only choose one of the proposals, and I have completely lost my autonomy."
"Governor Tendo, when will you come back from the Empire? I can't hold on any longer."
But what he didn't see was that after Kururugi Xuanwu sat down, he and Ningguang looked at each other and nodded slightly.
When you want to open a window, the best way is to say that you want to take off the roof... It has always been like this since ancient times, and it will continue to be like this in the future.
Chapter 11 Tokyo Blockade
Jotaro Kujo ran through several alleys at a speed far exceeding the record for a 100-meter race. He had already left behind several assassins he met on the road and arrived at the edge of Tokyo.
Here, the collapse of the concession had not yet spread. Although the streets seemed very deserted and people were seen occasionally fleeing in a hurry with large and small bags, at least there were no assassins to be seen.
"Are there still many people who haven't left?"
Looking at the ordinary people he could occasionally see, Jotaro silently adjusted his hat.
At this moment, a lot of shrill honking and noise came from the corner of the road ahead.
"... Stupid, with such a loud noise, if there are assassins wandering here, they will be attracted directly."
Jotaro Kujo frowned and walked towards the street where the sound came from.
Then Jotaro Kujo saw a road that was already blocked by all kinds of cars.
There were everything from expensive brand-name cars that were rare even in the concessions in the past to huge trucks for transporting goods, but at this moment they were all stuck on this road that led directly from the concession to the outside of the city.
From time to time, people are in a hurry to leave because of traffic jams, so they simply give up driving, pick up their luggage, get off the car and walk, which further aggravates the traffic jam.
Jotaro Kujo shook his head as he watched all this coldly.
Fortunately, the collapse has not spread here. If it had, these crowded people would have been the best means of spreading it.
Thinking of this, Jotaro Kujo walked forward with many pedestrians who also got off the car and went to the front.
After walking for a while, Jotaro Kujo reached the end of the road and found that the intersection ahead had been blocked by the army.
"Hurry up! Keep going! All the gaps that were not filled yesterday must be filled today!"
At the officers' call, a large number of soldiers were constantly transporting easily disassembled barbed wire walls to expand the scope of the blockade... It was as if they were going to surround the entire Tokyo.
Just as Jotaro had expected, the army was setting up a defense line at the edge of the city.
But what was beyond Jotaro Kujo's expectations was that he thought the army would control the main roads out and organize rescue, but at this time the army directly blocked everyone from entering and exiting.
At the moment, they are obviously ordinary people who are not infected, but they are blocked in the city by the military barbed wire.
"Assholes! What are you doing!?"
"Let us out!"
"Please, let us pass!"
"I clearly let it go yesterday!"
A large number of survivors begged or threatened the army blocking the door, asking them to let them leave the city that was already full of monsters and lunatics.
But these survivors were met with only cold, onlooker stares.
Many of the black-haired and black-eyed soldiers from District 11 even looked at these mostly white-skinned survivors with mocking expressions.
