Dragon Raja: Starting with Deadpool, Evolving Through Devouring

Page 90

Strictly speaking, he wasn't lying. Lu Mingfei did call him "boss," and Lu Mingze, who was bound to Lu Mingfei with two souls, naturally did the same.

No wonder so many villains love being the riddle teller; it turns out that being the riddle teller is such an exhilarating experience!

"The gods have already died at your hands, what else would you need two defenseless women like us for?"

"You're so weak you dare to go down to the bottom of the ocean more than 8,000 meters deep?" Cao Han looked at Su Enxi with a "Are you kidding me?" look.

"Anyway, it's decided happily. You can keep this god's spine with you for now. I'll have you deliver it to someone in a day or two at the latest."

Su Enxi and Jiu Demai's expressions turned serious.

They were all intelligent people, and naturally they could tell from Cao Han's words that the other party did not intend to take the spine containing the power of the White King's bloodline back to Kassel College.

As for where it's sent and who it's given to...

"no problem."

As long as they could save their lives, this small request was no big deal to them, and they readily agreed.

"Get me a change of clothes, and then get me a car."

Cao Han was wearing a tattered diving suit produced by the Equipment Department, which could only cover his sensitive areas to a limited extent. In addition, the salt left on his body after the seawater evaporated had a sticky and slippery feeling.

"Okay~"

Within the team, Su Enxi's role was originally that of the logistics manager, so she was incredibly adept at arranging these kinds of things.

Besides, she didn't need to handle such a small matter herself; she could simply instruct Kimura Hiroshi to arrange it.

As for the issue of clothing sizes...

Su Enxi said that with her experience of dating countless men, she could easily tell the right size of clothes for Cao Han’s coveted perfect figure.

"Wipe the drool from your mouth."

"What do you mean?" Su Enxi stubbornly denied it, but the subconscious action of raising her hand to wipe the corner of her mouth betrayed her.

Teasing can happen anytime, but while Cao Han was washing up, Jiu De Mai brought up serious business: "Do you think it's reliable that the muscular man said the boss called him 'boss'?"

"You're not really serious, are you? If that's the case, what do you think is the point of the boss sending us to Japan?"

"But I couldn't see any trace of lying in his micro-expressions."

"Alright, alright, you were just fooled by his honest appearance. He's actually full of bad intentions. In my opinion, he's another old fox. Otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to secretly carry out the act of killing a god so soon after arriving in Japan." Su Enxi gave her judgment.

On the surface, the Snake Clan all belong to the lineage of the White King, but it's hard to say what their attitude towards the gods is.

"So, are we really going to obey his commands? And what about this god's spine...?"

As she spoke, Mai's gaze fell on the spine that Cao Han had casually placed on the tatami mat, and she couldn't help but swallow hard.

Unfortunately, neither of them belonged to the White King's bloodline, so even if they obtained the spine, they couldn't use it.

"We must obey orders, at least until the boss shows up! Spinal cords are not only useless to us, but also deadly poison!" Su Enxi, the queen of the financial world, was still very clear-headed. People who can't control their greed never have a good ending.

"Where is the Kusanagi Sword that the boss ordered?"

"Look~ it's placed next to that black knife."

Do you think it's possible...?

"Impossible." Mai Shude decisively shook her head, rejecting Su Enxi's idea.

While they were at the bottom of the deep sea, Cao Han witnessed the entire process of Mai Shude cutting open the tail of the Yamata no Orochi and taking out the Ame-no-Murakumo sword. Naturally, Cao Han also learned from Mai Shude that this weapon was actually the mythical Japanese first divine weapon, the Ame-no-Murakumo sword.

Judging from its design and appearance, it roughly resembles the Kusanagi Sword, one of the divine weapons of a certain manga-style ninja.

Judging solely from its power and sharpness, it is indeed worthy of being the divine weapon used by Susanoo in mythology to slay the Yamata no Orochi. However, in Cao Han's eyes, this thing is a perfect match for the Japanese, as its length is a bit too short, making it more like a short sword.

The two-meter-long black sword of the Mo Dao type is still more handy.

Of course, whether it's handy or not doesn't suit him or not doesn't stop Cao Han from acquiring these mythical weapons with names and identities. Even if he doesn't use them himself, he can give them away.

Speaking of origins, Chisei hasn't even given them a gift yet when he joined their "Monster Hunter Association".

Although Genjiro's swords, Spider Cutter and Dojigiri Yasutsuna, are both decent alchemical weapons, they are not even in the same league as the Ama-no-Murakumo-no-Tsurugi.

Cao Han believed that the other party would be happy to receive the Japanese sacred weapon, the Kusanagi-no-Tsurugi.

"It's really bad fun."

After washing up, Cao Han couldn't help but complain about the clothes Su Enxi had prepared for him.

T-shirts with colorful patterns are one thing, but the neckline is a semi-circular shape at the back of the neck followed by a large "V" at the chest, almost exposing the chest and breasts.

Paired with beach shorts, the most common beachwear, with coconut trees on both sides, and finished with Japanese-style wooden clogs, each step makes a "clattering" sound.

Chapter 94 Everything is under control

In the face of death, humanity either shines brightly or utterly fails the test and reveals its true nature.

As if surrounded by an apocalyptic vision, Japan experienced a frenzied spread of "doomsday rhetoric" among its people during those few hours.

Some chose to bravely struggle for survival, seeking a glimmer of hope, and taking their families to safety.

Some people chose to completely unleash their nature, committing almost every imaginable evil, including murder, arson, vandalism, and looting.

As Cao Han drove his Lexus LFA toward the Kanto branch in Tokyo, all he could see was devastation; the closer he got to Tokyo, the more chaotic the scene became.

These people must have been so brazen because they knew the homeowners and shop owners had already fled.

As expected of the Japanese, who have lived a relatively comfortable life despite numerous hardships, their ability to cope with and accept disasters is first-rate.

In particular, the large-scale drainage system "Iron Dome Temple" built by the Snake Clan is really impressive. If it weren't for the various unidentified objects rushing in from who knows where, you probably wouldn't be able to tell that the road had just been hit by an unprecedented tsunami.

Some clueless and reckless individuals, seeing Cao Han driving a luxury sports car, harbored malicious intentions and tried to intercept the vehicle.

Cao Han's approach to these reckless individuals was to show no mercy!

Cao Han did not consider himself a saint, much less a great demon who indiscriminately killed innocent people; he was simply a "helpful" good young man.

The main theme is "what you sow, you reap," meaning that since they're courting death, these ungrateful younger brothers of Mai Shiranui will all die.

Ordinary people are utterly helpless when faced with the power of words.

"Perfect timing to try out the newly acquired White King series of mental spells."

If facing an opponent of similar strength, the Word Spirit Dream Eater should look the opponent directly in the eye, but there are not so many rules for ordinary people.

A small-scale, special mental fluctuation spread outwards from Cao Han, affecting those "ungrateful people" who fell asleep and collapsed to the ground.

What awaits these people is not a beautiful dream, but a lingering nightmare!

"Waraparinran rinran rinran rinran

Rinran rinran rin-rin-rin-rin-rin

......"

Suddenly, Hatsune Miku's classic song "Ievan Polkka" started playing in the car. Cao Han's face darkened, and he pulled out a Sony flip phone covered in sparkling rhinestones.

The phone's previous owner was Mai Shude, who looked very cool and stylish. No wonder Cao Han struggled for a long time to take it out when he "requisitioned" it.

It's both girly pink and otaku songs.

I never expected that Mai Shude would have such a girlish, anime-loving side.

As for Su Enxi, who looks no different from a homebody, it's more likely that she's influenced by the need to stay in the background as the head of logistics.

With Cao Han's lightning-fast reflexes, driving with one hand was a piece of cake. He flipped open his phone to find a call from Fingel:

"Fingal, where are you? Have you met up with Principal Angers yet?"

"I've already met with Principal Angers. He called to tell you that most of the preparations for the transfer have begun."

"Most of them? Transferred?"

“I made some inquiries and found out that they are preparing to move to the Uesugi family’s mansion in Tokyo, which is the ramen chef’s house. It is said that the Hebi-hachi family has to make some decisions, and Principal Angers and we are the witnesses.”

"I don't think this is what I expected," Cao Han said, showing no surprise whatsoever.

This was exactly what he had anticipated when he chose to go to the University of Tokyo to find Uesugi Koshi.

Rather, Cao Han felt that Uesugi Yue's approach was a bit too "conservative".

They were once a super hybrid, after all. It's one thing if they didn't know the truth about their two sons, Genjiro and Genjiro, but the way their daughter, Uesugi Erii, was treated by Tachibana Masamune...

As a father, how could I tolerate this?!

He should have immediately lost his temper, flipped the table, and killed that "Tachibana Masamune" clone!

If Uesugi Kochi makes a move, he can eliminate one of Herzog's two public identities. Losing the support of the Snake Clan is like losing an arm, leaving him only with the identity of "King General" of the Demon Clan.

The reason why the Demon Clan has been able to rival the Snake-Headed Eight Families for so many years is not because the two sides are evenly matched and neither can defeat the other, but because the Snake-Headed Eight Families has an unexpected patriarch, Tachibana Masamune, who acts as a traitor and informs them.

As a result, the efforts to exterminate the Demon Clan over the years have yielded little success, and the Demon Clan has even used Osaka as their main base.

"Brother Cao is wise and mighty!" Fingel praised sincerely.

He now carefully recalled Cao Han's entire plan, which seemed rough but was full of brilliant strokes. For example, the appearance of Uesugi Yue had attracted the attention of the entire Orochi.

Then, when the gods truly revived, causing all of Japan to fall into a weather anomaly, naturally no one cared about Cao Han and his team of headquarters executives anymore.

"Keep an eye on the situation for me. If the two sides really start fighting and I haven't arrived by then, have Principal Angers kill Tachibana Masamune if necessary. I'll explain the reasons to the principal afterwards, understand?"

"Leave it to me, I'll handle it."

"I'm already on my way to Tokyo. Once you arrive, I'll have Norma send me the latest location for navigation."

"Okay, I'll hang up now. Drive carefully."

"Don't you trust my driving skills?!"

After hanging up the phone, Fingel was still shaken by Cao Han's driving skills. He wanted to say that it was precisely because he trusted Cao Han's driving skills that he said that.

He told Cao Han to pay attention to passersby, not to Cao Han himself.

----------

The Uesugi family residence.

With the loss of contact with the former head of the family, Uesugi Koshi, and the current head of the family, Uesugi Erii, being absent for many years due to unstable bloodlines, among other factors, the situation has changed.

The Uesugi family, one of the three inner families of the Snake-Headed Eight Families, is practically defunct.

The huge mansion, to put it nicely, is full of antique charm; to put it bluntly, it is dilapidated and desolate, with only a few old servants responsible for daily maintenance remaining there.
