Chapter 22: The Minister's Interest, The Four Rakshasa Demons Attack

Minister Ernest was not a fool. Takahashi Yu's order for Borsalino to bribe Minister Ernest and most of the other officials was bound to be discovered and would inevitably attract their attention.

However, this is also part of the plan.

Often, when you have enough strength, some of the obstacles that were originally obstacles can actually become your help.

If Takahashi Yu's side wasn't strong enough, then facing Minister Ernest's probing, they would probably be severely injured even if they didn't die. But unfortunately, Borsalino was not only strong enough, but was even a whole level stronger than the people in the world of Akame ga Kill!

Therefore, Takahashi Yu was not afraid of Ernest's probing at all. On the contrary, Ernest's probing could further consolidate Borsalino's position and allow him to firmly hold the position of Minister of the Imperial Assassination Force.

......

A few days later, in the world of Akame ga Kill!, the Empire unsurprisingly discovered Sterkar's disappearance and confirmed that he was dead.

Although the news was not widely publicized, all the officials in the court, including some people of high rank, knew about it. After Borsalino's caravan pretended to gather some intelligence, it began to bribe these officials on a large scale.

Several days ago, Borsalino used his strength to eliminate all of Jamal and other members of the merchant guild's competitors, and also took down several of the biggest merchants in the capital. With the help of the guard captain Oka, he swallowed up this wealth and power, completely controlling more than 80 percent of the capital's commercial chain and monopolizing nearly half of the capital's wealth.

With these, Jamal and his associates were not short of money at all. Under the continuous onslaught of money, many of the bribed officials began to relent.

Anyway, they've received plenty of bribes before, and although their demands were higher this time, the amount offered was still substantial.

On this day, at the residence of Minister Ernest.

It was already night, but the mansion was still brightly lit.

Minister Ernest listened to his subordinates' report as he tore into pieces of fresh meat that the cook had just prepared.

"Interesting, very interesting indeed. After killing the former head of the Imperial Assassination Force, does he intend to take the position himself?"

Based solely on reports from his subordinates, even without concrete evidence, Minister Ernest was able to deduce the true cause of death of former Imperial Assassination Force Minister Stekar from a series of pieces of information.

"I haven't encountered anything this interesting since Esdeath appeared. She wants the position of Minister of the Imperial Assassination Force? Well, if she wants it, then let's give it to her."

Minister Ernest was not concerned about the cause of death of the former head of the Imperial Assassination Force, Steka. Compared to his current high position, he could easily replace the mere head of the Assassination Force at any time.

Moreover, he had received a large amount of "sincere gifts" from the other party, so he felt he needed to reciprocate in kind.

He had already read the information about Borsalino in the capital. He was indeed a man of some ability, especially the portrait. His face didn't look like that of an honest person, which suited his taste perfectly.

Let's rule out the possibility that he was a Revolutionary Army spy. As for Steka, being killed only proves that he was useless.

However, Minister Ernest could not remain indifferent to the fact that the other party had bribed so many officials. It was fine to like power and take shortcuts, but being too restless still needed to be addressed.

......

The following morning, in the palace, the news of the death of Steka, the Minister of the Imperial Assassination Force, was made public.

As for the cause of death, it was attributed to the revolutionary army.

"These revolutionaries are absolutely despicable!"

"Even imperial ministers are being brutally murdered; if this continues, they'll become a major threat sooner or later..."

At this point, the young emperor, sitting on the throne, glanced uneasily at the officials below, then turned his gaze to the minister beside him.

"My dear minister, what do you think I should do?"

Upon hearing this, Minister Ernest burst into laughter twice.

"Your Majesty, you are overthinking it. Under your rule, the people of the empire live in peace and prosperity, and the country is at peace. Those revolutionary soldiers are nothing but a bunch of traitors who are using the banner of revolution as a pretext. They are really nothing to worry about."

"If Your Majesty is not at ease, once General Esdeath has quelled the rebellion of the northern barbarians, we will be free to deal with the mere Revolutionary Army, which can be wiped out in an instant."

Upon hearing this, the young emperor nodded.

"I see. Now that you say so, I am relieved."

"Your Majesty, compared to those revolutionary forces, the most urgent task now is to elect a capable person and appoint a new Minister of the Imperial Assassination Force."

The minister then spoke.

"Very well, do any of you ministers have suitable candidates?"

Upon hearing the young emperor's words, a commotion broke out below, and after a moment, an official stepped forward.

“Your Majesty, I humbly recommend a capable man named Borsalino. He comes from the border of the Empire, has an extraordinary appearance, can easily fight dangerous species, and is strong enough to be appointed to this position.”

Upon hearing this, many people looked puzzled. They were all officials who had been bribed, and seeing that the first person had spoken, they all raised their heads to see what the minister meant.

The minister made no comment, but simply nodded, glanced at the young emperor beside him, and then looked at the crowd below.

"I also think this is a good choice. What do you all think?"

Immediately, the crowd below understood what Minister Ernest meant.

"That Borsalino is indeed a capable man, I second that opinion!"

"I second that proposal!"

As the officials who had received bribes began to speak up, the entire hall was filled with a single voice, and any objections raised were instantly drowned out.

"Wouldn't that solve Your Majesty's troubles?"

Minister Ernest wore a smile, but no one present knew what he was truly thinking.

......

As evening fell, under the pitch-black night, Borsalino stood quietly in the mansion prepared by Jamal, waiting.

According to his Observation Haki, four auras were rapidly approaching him.

Although... he's a bit weaker in terms of strength, Borsalino won't be careless since it was Borsalino's original instruction.

A few minutes later, four figures finally arrived outside the mansion and then instantly appeared around Borsalino.

"It's you, isn't it? The one who caused this commotion, the Minister of the Assassination Force of the Assassination Empire, the newly appointed Minister of the Assassination Force of the New Empire, Borsalino."

Chapter 23: The Four Rakshasa Demons, How Terrifying!

"He assassinated the former Minister of the Imperial Assassination Force, took over as Minister of the New Imperial Assassination Force, and even colluded with a large number of officials in private through bribery. What a bad kid."

Among the four figures that stopped around, a slender man licked his lips and let out a strange laugh, his body stretching out like paper.

"Naughty children who don't behave will be punished!"

"Alright, Thorn, don't forget what our orders were."

The girl with wheat-colored skin and pigtails licked her fingertips and said in a lively voice, "If he meets the criteria, we'll teach him a lesson; if he doesn't, killing him is fine too."

Upon hearing this, the burly man with a thick beard next to him stretched out his arms.

"I will try my best to liberate his soul."

"Let's not bother with such pointless talk. Instead, when are we going to start?"

The last black-haired girl, dressed in an Aikido bodysuit, waved her hand and said.

"whispering sound..."

The slender man curled his lip in response, then stepped forward.

"In that case, I'll take the lead."

The man's body, which had been stretched out like paper, began to fluctuate strangely. He stomped his right foot on the ground, and the surging power instantly shattered the stone bricks beneath his feet. He flew like a cannonball toward Borsalino, who was surrounded by the four men.

"Remember my name, the one who killed you was Thorn, one of the Four Rakshasa Demons!"

The other three were immediately dissatisfied with this scene.

"Hey, isn't it a bit much to eat alone?"

"Of course, we, the Four Rakshasa Demons, will have to go together as a group of four."

"Let me liberate his soul!"

After saying that, the remaining three, Matou, Suzuka, and Zhutian, charged towards Borsalino together.

The Four Demon Rakshasa are exceptionally skilled boxers, one in a million, who hail from the Imperial Fist Temple, the highest boxing institution in the empire, and serve as Minister Ernest's private bodyguard team.

Under special training, they possess the unique ability to control their bodies freely. Combined with their strength, which is close to the peak of normal human capabilities, each of them has the formidable strength to rival a Teigu user with their bare hands.

They served as both guards and assassins around the ministers, often secretly executing those who dared to oppose them.

It can be said that sending out these four people as a test is enough to show how much Minister Ernest values ​​Borsalino.

Unfortunately, such high regard ultimately underestimated Borsalino's strength.

"The Four Rakshasa Demons, huh? Judging from their aura, they seem like monsters. They really are..."

"How terrible."

Adjusting his single-rimmed glasses, Borsalino vanished in a flash before the four attackers arrived.

Have you ever been kicked at the speed of light?

Borsalino instantly appeared beside Thorn, bent down, and spoke to Thorn, who was still in a forward-leaning posture and had only reached his waist.

"what?"

Upon hearing Borsalino's words, Thorn's pupils constricted sharply, but before he could say anything, a leg kicked him in the abdomen, sending him flying backward at several times the speed he had come from, smashing through buildings along the way.

"spine!"

The loud roar drew the attention of the other three. Their expressions changed as they looked at Borsalino, who had suddenly appeared to the side, and Thorn, who had been dealt with in an instant.

"It's your turn."

Borsalino's gaze remained unchanged, and with a flash, he reappeared beside the person.

Have you ever been kicked at the speed of light?

boom--! ! !

After taking down the horse-headed girl with the wheat-colored skin and twin ponytails among the Four Demon Rakshasa with another kick, Borsalino returned to the side of the bearded giant, Zhu Tian.

boom--! ! !

It was the same moves, the same routine, but Zhu Tian couldn't react at all when Borsalino transformed into light with terrifying speed. The speed that the four of them were so proud of was no different from a tortoise crawl in front of Borsalino at this moment.

His figure vanished again, and Borsalino finally stopped in front of Suzuka, a black-haired girl in an Aikido bodysuit.

Swish!
