I'm a Hokage in Tokyo

"You people from Kanto are shameless!"

"If you hadn't transferred the Yuki branch chief away, we in Kyoto wouldn't have been caught off guard yesterday."

The bigwigs from Kyoto Prefecture were immediately furious and shouted angrily, almost breaking off relations with Tokyo.

After a heated argument, both sides finally took a step back.

"I regret that I cannot come, but I will send the other twelve gods to Kyoto Prefecture to take charge."

Although the Kyoto Prefecture was not very satisfied, it could only accept it after all.

"Professor Changshan, four nodes of the Ghost Gate Seal have been removed, leaving Yasaka Shrine and Hachimangu Shrine. If the mastermind behind this wants to launch another attack, where will they start?"

"It must be the inner ghost gate, Hachimangu Shrine!"

Professor Changshan pondered for a long time, then said in a resounding voice:

"Hachimangu Shrine is the exit. As long as it is erased, from the perspective of Feng Shui, the gates of hell will be wide open. Once both ends of the gate of hell are open, evil spirits can come in unimpeded, and Yasaka Shrine will not be able to support itself."

"I see."

"Professor Changshan is so knowledgeable!"

The bigwigs from Kyoto Prefecture looked solemn and nodded frequently.

"We must immediately rebuild the other four temples and shrines and seal up the Ghost Gate!"

"At the same time, impose a curfew and move the Self-Defense Forces into the city to protect Hachimangu Shrine and Yasaka Shrine!"

There are a total of 9 Self-Defense Force garrisons in Kyoto Prefecture. Although Minister Uchiha cannot be present in person, there are as many ordinary Self-Defense Forces as needed.

The state machinery immediately began to operate and Kyoto Prefecture entered a state of war readiness.

Chapter 403 Chapter 404 Shadow Warrior

The evening drums are setting over the mountains, and the red glow of the setting sun is as bright as gold.

It was the time for weary birds to return to the forest, but above the peak of Nanshan Mountain, birds were flying restlessly, overlooking the uninvited guests at the foot of the mountain.

Because the Nue was elusive in the sky, the Kyoto Ground Self-Defense Force urgently set up machine gun positions on all sides in the forest at the foot of the mountain, with the muzzles of the anti-aircraft machine guns pointing towards the sky.

Outside the Hachiman Shrine on the mountain, several temporary bunkers and defense lines have been built. Fully armed Self-Defense Force members are on high alert, and the air is filled with a solemn atmosphere.

"My position is impregnable. Even if there are eight or ten Nue monsters, they will never be able to cross the line."

The general from the Okubo garrison waved his arm and spoke with great enthusiasm.

Although time was short, under the urging of the bigwigs in Kyoto Prefecture, the positions were arranged in an orderly manner.

Yuuki Mineko put down the telescope in front of her and showed an indecisive look on her pretty face.

Although she is a supernatural being, she only has a vague understanding of military affairs. Professional matters should be left to professionals.

The only question is, will the mastermind behind this attack again?

If an attack really happens, when will it happen?

Only a thousand days to be a thief, not a thousand days to guard against thieves.

After all, the attack happened just last night. The situation in Kyoto was in a state of panic and the alertness was raised to the extreme. As time goes by, people will inevitably relax their vigilance.

Moreover, it is impossible for such precious extraordinary combat power as the Twelve Generals to be bound to the Hachiman Shrine forever.

If nothing happens for a period of time, Yuki Mineko will most likely be transferred out of Kyoto Prefecture.

I really want to return to my senior's side as soon as possible.

Yuuki Mineko pursed her lips, looking a little upset.

"Ms. Yuuki, are you worried about Yasaka Shrine?"

Yuuki Mineko's eyes fell on a thin middle-aged man.

Hero of Tosu.

The twelve divine generals sent from Tokyo to provide reinforcements.

According to the new rules set by the Cabinet and Minister Uchiha, the Twelve Generals now operate in teams of two.

Yuuki Mineko and Tosu Hideo are a temporary combination.

Hachimangu Shrine is the inner ghost gate where the ghost gate ends and is more important than Yasaka Shrine in the Feng Shui formation of Heian-kyo.

Iwashimizu Hachiman Shrine is located on a mountain outside the city, where the Self-Defense Forces can deploy heavy troops and heavy weapons.

In comparison, Yasaka Shrine in downtown Kyoto is not that convenient.

Therefore, most of the defensive forces are concentrated here.

"No, I think if the mastermind wants to launch another attack, he will definitely choose Hachimangu Shrine."

"Oh, why do you say that?" Tosu Hideo asked curiously.

Yuuki Mineko raised her lips and said lightly, "Women's intuition."

"Yes, that's right..."

Tosu Hideo touched his nose, feeling a little amused.

At this moment, a sharp and piercing alarm sounded over the Hachimangu position, and the faces of the two Twelve Generals changed drastically.

"The attack happened before dark?"

"It's dusk now, which is the time when demons and monsters love to encounter evil. Let's go!"

The two men rushed to the command center set up in the side hall, only to see staff officers and ordinary Self-Defense Force members running back and forth in a hurry.

"Report, the lookout spotted a large number of Nue in the northeastern sky!"

"Humph, it really came along the ghost line."

The general snorted coldly and asked confidently:

"How many are there?"

"The number is unknown, but judging by visual estimation, it may be over a hundred!"

"What, over a hundred?!"

The general was so surprised that he almost fell off his seat.

Damn it, there were only five or six Nue that came out to cause trouble last night, but today there are over a hundred of them. That’s not how you do it with super multiplication, right?

How can you play this!

"Notify the machine gun positions and open fire hard!" the general roared in an angry voice.

Although the enemy's presence was taken into account when the positions were arranged, with such a large number of them, the defense line would be torn to pieces if one was not careful.

Then the general turned to the two generals and said humbly:

"Please ask the two gods to be ready to attack at any time."

He stole a glance at the Hero of Tosu.

It would be fine if Minister Uchiha didn't come, but why was Tokyo unwilling to send the abbot Kanhara of Sensō-ji Temple to Kyoto?

The monster Tosu ranks among the top of the Twelve Gods, but he is not as powerful as the first and third ones on the human list.

He complained a few words in his heart, feeling somewhat dissatisfied, but he did not dare to say it out loud.

Yuuki Mineko and Tosu Hideo looked at each other and nodded with serious expressions.

Another signalman rushed in and reported anxiously:

"Report! Taira Masakado has also appeared, riding on the back of a nue and bombarding the position."

Everyone's face turned pale with horror.

The purple light arrow shot by God couldn't exorcise Taira no Masakado?

-----------------

“Da da da da da!!!”

"Hooray!"

A large black cloud was hanging over the forest in the northeast. Nues as big as foals appeared in the clouds, making strange cries.

The anti-aircraft machine guns deployed in the position opened fire immediately. Tongues of fire formed by steel bullets shot up into the sky, interweaving into a network of death.

It was truly spectacular to see dozens of anti-aircraft machine guns firing at the same time. The fierceness of the anti-aircraft firepower should not be underestimated.

The firepower of the anti-aircraft machine gun can even blow up fighter jets. Even if Nue is a monster, there is no way it can escape.

From time to time, nueguses were shot down by bullets in the sky.

But what was strange was that before the nue's body fell to the ground, it turned into a cloud of gray mist and disappeared.

At the same time, the surface-to-air rocket vehicles deployed outside Hachimangu Shrine also immediately launched missiles towards the northeast.

Although the radar guidance of surface-to-air missiles cannot lock onto the Nue at low altitudes, which is an agile and small (compared to air military units) supernatural creature, there are too many of them, and once a missile is fired at them, there will definitely be some gains.

Along with the falling dust, waves of orange-red flames exploded in the sky.

"Bang bang bang!"

It was as if the fireworks of the Gion Festival had not yet ended and were being made up at this moment.

"Okay, that's it! Hit me hard!"

The commander in the command center and other observers far away in Tokyo were delighted.

Even if human beings’ modern technological weapons cannot deal with Kage-level warriors or gods, they can still easily achieve great results against small monsters.

"Damn it!"

Suddenly, there were roars in the sky that shook the whole place, exploding in the ears of the Self-Defense Force members like thunder.

"You bunch of flat-haired monsters, listen to my command, go!"

A dozen nuches were running wildly in the air, rushing towards the periphery, no longer gathering together and rushing forward like before.

The machine guns on the position quickly turned their muzzles and madly poured out a barrage of bullets, killing the fleeing nue.

Even though some of the nues were shot to pieces, more of them drew huge arcs, flew to the sides or rear of the machine gun positions, and then plummeted down like meteors.

"boom!"

"boom!"

Things have changed, and the Japanese are now getting a taste of the kamikaze attack.

The machine gun position on the peak of Nanshan Mountain was immediately blown to pieces by Nue's self-explosion.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, the remaining seven or eight nues let out strange cries and flew towards the Hachiman Shrine on the mountain in a menacing manner.

Riding on the back of a nue as big as an ox at the head of the group was the headless Taira no Masakado!

"It would actually self-destruct?!"

"How hateful! We were almost there! We could have killed all the Nue monsters."

"The cunning Taira Masakado!"

Some people watched with horror.

Flying monsters like the Nue cannot be detected by air defense radar at all.

Just imagine, if they had launched an attack not at the well-prepared Hachiman Shrine, but at an unprotected military base or political center, the consequences would have been disastrous!

The clouds follow the dragon, the wind follows the tiger!

Although the Nue is not a complete tiger monster, it has one-quarter of the shape of a tiger. When it hovers over the Hachiman Shrine, the wind roars and sand and rocks fly.

"Hahahahaha! Hateful Hachiman, today I will raze you to the ground, and the Imperial Palace will be next!"

Taira Masakado held the gigantic naginata high in the air, and an unbridled laugh came from his abdomen.

It was about to chop downwards.

At this moment, a large shadow flew over from below like a ghost.

"what?"

Ping Jiangmen was startled and clamped his legs together, and the Nue dodged to the side.
