I planted a sacred tree in Tokyo.

Chapter 778 'Victory' and the Mission
boom--------

The earth trembled violently, and Ryuji Hanakain, who was drinking tea, almost shoved the teacup into his mouth.

?

"Guan Hu"

He summoned his shikigami and flew outwards;

When he burst through the wall, Ryuji Keikain had already entered a shikigami fusion state; behind him was a magnificent fur cloak, which was quite in line with his identity as the 'acting head of the Keikain family'.

boom,

the other side,
Another Tiger-level peak expert in the family, Hua Kaiyuan Momei Liu, also broke through the wall.

as well as:

brush,

"what happened?"

Takahashi Eileen, carrying the black and white kitten 'Mitsuko', also arrived as if by teleportation.

"It's in the direction of the family training grounds,"

When Ryuji Kakaiin looked up, his expression immediately changed.

Because in the direction of the Kasakain family's training ground, a semi-transparent 'barrier' appeared, and the cracks all over it indicated that this barrier, which could easily neutralize a peak Tiger-level attack, had reached its limit!
"Stabilize the barrier first,"

"Use that move—"

The three people and the cat sped away.

Landing in the four corners of the training ground, including Milk Cat 'Photon', they all clasped their hands together in a mudra.

"Four Purple Flame Formation!" ×4
The spiritual power of two Ghost-level and two Tiger-level beings merged into one, and a rectangular barrier of purple transparent flame rose up, enveloping the entire arena.

This is a barrier technique that is said to be able to withstand attacks from dragon-level powerhouses; as the purple 'Four Purple Flame Array' rose, both shockwaves and lightning were perfectly blocked: although the inside of the barrier was in chaos, the outside was calm and peaceful.

"This is?"

The three people and one cat set up a barrier, which could not only prevent damage to the family's territory, but also trap the enemy before making any further plans.

"Little Moon Night Meets Princess"

But upon closer inspection, what kind of enemy was it?
One of them, soaring through the air and cracking the air with an invisible repulsive force as she raised her hand, was none other than the 'Moon Princess'!
"Who is the burly man who fought against the little princess?"

The man battling Xiaoyueya was an 'unfamiliar' burly man with chiseled muscles that exuded explosive, no, nuclear-level power! He was covered in lightning, wore only trousers, and his long hair flew wildly, making him both wild and domineering!

In the blur, I seemed to see the face of a primary school student?
"Um, gentlemen."

A faint voice came from the side. Even though they were hundreds of meters apart, the four of them could easily see who was speaking, given their eyesight and hearing.
"Xiaoxia?"

Long Er turned his head to look.

Why is this younger sister's disciple here too?

Could it be that--

"That man wearing a hat is Xiaozhi."

Upon hearing this, the other two people and the cat were slightly taken aback, with Guangzi even directly retorting:

“I know Xiaozhi,”

A clumsy 10-year-old elementary school student. But:
"You didn't teach him the family's 'secret techniques,' did you?"

Such a drastic change in appearance, in 'Photon's' view, the most reasonable explanation is the 'Shikigami Fusion Technique' of the Keikain family: By the way, I didn't see that yellow mouse named 'Pikachu'.

“No, no, no.”

Xiaoxia quickly shook her head in denial. How could she dare to reveal such a family secret technique?
Because Photon doesn't concern herself with family matters, she is unaware that Ash has already 'broken ties' with Pikachu.

"This is Ash's own power, uh..."

Xiaoxia hesitated for a moment, but finally decided to tell the truth;

After all, given Xiaozhi's 'intelligence', it would be far too difficult to expect him to keep a secret.

"It's said that this is a secret technique taught to him by Pikachu, also known as 'Raichu': you've seen its power—"

boom! ! boom! ! boom! !

A thick bolt of lightning raged wildly within the barrier formed by the 'Four Purple Flames Array'!
Wherever it went, the ground, repeatedly reinforced by Yin-Yang magic, was torn apart like the sea surface sliced ​​by a sailfish, offering no resistance; without a barrier, simply speeding past would be enough to destroy cities and countries.

The three people and one cat maintaining the barrier were speechless.

Isn’t it too strong?
Is this really a 10-year-old elementary school student?

For a moment, both members of the Hanakain family, who were already considered 'geniuses', began to question their existence.

"Very strong,"

Takahashi Eileen watched the elementary school students rushing through the barrier, secretly assessing the situation.

His strength is already comparable to that of Kafka's general.
And the speed is terrifying!
Only Ibaraki-doji himself could fight him: Is this really the Ash I met not long ago?

Even though she herself was the epitome of "cheating," Ai Ling couldn't help but think of the word "cheating."

Very strong indeed!

but:

"Xiao Jianzi is not weak either."

Milk Cat 'Photon' stared intently at the battlefield with its vertical pupils.

Facing Ash, who unleashed a straight and thick bolt of lightning, Koyuki saw the 'God's Eye' in her eye sockets spinning rapidly, firmly locking onto his figure.

Without warning, Shinra Tensei was continuously unleashed;

Interrupting Ash's charge-up and forcing him to change direction.

Next-

As Ash, moving at high speed, tried to break through from the side!
Right now,

Xiaoyue suddenly turned around, her 'eye of the gods' in her eye sockets contracting as she subtly pulled with her left hand.

All things are attracted by heaven!

"Hey?"

Ash, who was already traveling at a terrifying speed, suddenly increased his speed again!

This was not because he accelerated again, but because he was pulled forward and fell by an invisible force.

The center of gravity has been lost, but the opportunity has arrived!
Just as Ash lost his balance and stumbled past, Tsukiyomi, who had already dodged and gathered her strength, clenched her right fist and raised it.

Swing out -

Bang!
The little girl's fist

It slammed into Ash's cheek with terrifying force.

Rumble, rumble, rumble! ! !
Ash took a punch to the face and was sent flying, transforming into an 'invincible whirlwind'; he plowed a deep dent into the training ground.

"Heh heh heh, how about my move?"

Turning around, with her right hand behind her back, Little Moonlight's face was tense. "Besides repulsion, is there attraction?"

In the smoke and dust,
Xiao Zhi stood up.

He dusted off his trousers, completely ignoring the punch he'd just received in the face.

"Well then, that's all for today."

Upon hearing what Yukimi said, Ash scratched his head.

But I

Xiao Zhi said he could still play.
"No buts, you've already lost."

Her right hand, hidden behind her back, loosened, and her five fingers twitched incessantly. Little Moonlit Night was speechless inside:
That shamelessness!
That's way too hard!
"Well, with the combined strength of you and me;"

"If we join forces to fight the enemy, there's nowhere in the world we can't go."

"Right,"

Ash nodded as the lightning on his body disappeared and his size began to shrink.

He's just not very bright, but he still has normal common sense: since he left home, he hasn't met many people who are better than him.

"Next time, we'll definitely be able to get Pikachu back!"

"Of course I'll help you."

The 10-year-old primary school student and the one-and-a-half-year-old little girl were talking at once.

The fact that they didn't take the 'Eight Great Generals' seriously at all made the three people and one cat in the Hanakain family feel exhausted.

What is happening to this world?
Sigrún has taught at the Iceland University of the Arts as a part-time lecturer since and was Dean of the Department of Fine Art from -. In – she held a research position at Reykjavík Art Museum focusing on the role of women in Icelandic art. She studied fine art at the Icelandic College of Arts and Crafts and at Pratt Institute, New York, and holds BA and MA degrees in art history and philosophy from the University of Iceland. Sigrún lives and works in Iceland.

Sky Continent

"So, you actually failed?"

"Here's the thing."

The eight elite warriors reunited, and after Mewtwo recounted what had happened, each of them looked conflicted.

Raichu, isn't he just creating a formidable enemy for himself?

"at this point,"

Gudora, unusually, refrained from mocking Raichu, because what was more important now was:
"We need to find a way to take down that Ash!"

That elementary school student had actually mastered the power of 'Ji': as members of the Eight Heroes, they were all too familiar with that power.

That's the key to entering the 'god level', regardless of whether you can reach that level in the future; but without a doubt, it's a huge hidden danger!

It must be removed as soon as possible!

"I don't need you, I—"

"Enough, Raichu!"

Faced with this critical situation, Gudora became calm.

"With your current strength, can you defeat that human brat?"

Even Raichu wouldn't stubbornly refuse to admit defeat;

Besides, even if he's stubborn, Mewtwo saw with his own eyes that Ash used him as a ball and beat him up badly.

"How about I—"

Before Gudora could speak, a chorus of voices immediately rang out.

"No!"

"be opposed to!"

I also object.

The other eight heroes all spoke up, leaving one of the flightless red dragons speechless.

You guys—

"Goodora, with your size, how do you plan to carry out missions?"

"The other party is in Tokyo, an island nation, and you're not good at infiltration. Are you planning to confront that principal and the Inari god directly?"

The words of the other eight warriors left Gul'dora speechless for a moment: While his strength was undeniable, he was indeed not adept at infiltration and assassination; most importantly…

It can't fly!
Other masters come and go freely, their movements unpredictable and elusive.
It just slowly 'ran' over there, and anyone who didn't know better would mistake it for some kind of grunt.

Running alone on the vast sea, as if afraid the powerful figures of Tokyo wouldn't see it?
"Leave this matter to Mewtwo."

In the end, Rayquaza stepped forward and directly assigned tasks.

"Gengar and Kommo-o, you two support Mewtwo; we cannot let the power of the Eight Elite Fighters fall into the hands of humans."

"Yes!"

Gengar and Kommo-o immediately nodded.

The two of them were just 'standard' Ghost-level, so they had no objections to facing the Dragon-level Rayquaza.

Mewtwo is a powerful ghost, so it's not shameful to assist it.

"Gudora,"

After deciding who would take down Ash, Rayquaza turned to look at the restless wingless red dragon.

“Go to the west coast of America and teach the people there a lesson.”

Sauron, the Fallen Angel!
His group of extraordinary individuals has taken up residence on the west coast, forging and building various magical colossi on a massive scale, and the resulting pollution has already aroused the dissatisfaction of the Eight Heroes.

In an era where most countries are starting to embrace 'environmental protection,' only the Americas remain in complete chaos.

Naturally, nobody cares about the environment.

“Raichu,”

Finally, Rayquaza looked at the adorable yellow mouse.

"Go to Mexico."

“Recently, a ‘demon king’ from a European pantheon has been expanding his army there.”

Given the nature of demons, they naturally have no concept of 'environmental protection', and are also enemies of the Eight Heroes.

"Please check the situation first."

"No need to bother!"

Annoyed, Raichu forcefully interrupted Rayquaza.

"I'll just kill that demon king!"

P.S.: I recommend a book by a fellow reader, "I Said: There Must Be a Revival of Spiritual Energy," which is probably also a behind-the-scenes mastermind type? Ahem, just to clarify beforehand, I've already emphasized that recommending books often involves sacrificing past events, but the reader says they don't mind, so... if you have time, you can check it out. It's really not a dark sacrifice (it's hard to say anymore, tears welling up).
