The villainous second young lady becomes a god in a bizarre Tokyo.

The idea flashed through my mind and disappeared in an instant.

If you want to understand the gods, there is no better way than to confront them directly.

Based on the previous words of the fake Susanoo, it can be concluded that Susanoo is among the strongest of the gods.

However, the gods of the Kujo Zaibatsu might be somewhat weaker.

In that case, why not first deal with the gods of the Kujo Zaibatsu and fight them to gain a deeper understanding of the gods?

Thinking about this, Natsumi Hanae nodded, feeling that there was great potential in doing so.

However, we still need to find a way to get into the Kujo Zaibatsu.

The Kujo Zaibatsu is not as easy to enter as the Natsumi Zaibatsu. The gods of the Natsumi Zaibatsu, because Natsumi Hanae herself has her own bloodline, can use this as a shell to disguise themselves.

It is very easy to deceive the unconscious will of the gods.

However, the Kujo conglomerates are different.

If other deities were to enter the territory of the Kujo Zaibatsu deities, it would likely provoke a backlash.

If Kujo Zaibatsu's god and Susanoo are in the same league, then Natsume Hanae will face a fierce battle, and if it drags on until the information reaches Natsume's residence.

That would most likely mean facing a confrontation between two great gods.

Therefore, it is necessary to first discreetly understand the strength of the nine financial tycoons.

Summer flowers pursed her cherry lips, slowly making a guess.

However, she suddenly sensed that the aura of her origin was outside the Summer Clan residence and had entered.

"strangeness?"

"Why would an individual carrying my temple fire enter the Summer Clan residence just now?"

Summer Flower Painting has some doubts.

However, she could not allow this gesture to leave the shrine.

Right now, her true form is being entangled by Hoshikawa Oto and Kuchiki Mei while shopping in Yokohama, and it's estimated that she won't be able to return to the Summer Family Mansion for several more hours.

The cooperation between the Summer Zaibatsu and the Kujo Zaibatsu would take several days to reach an agreement.

There's no rush.

Once the main body arrives, find an opportunity to search for the source of the accompanying fire and also see what kind of old man, the head of the Kujo family, really is.

With this in mind, Natsumi Hanae confirmed her specific actions for the future.

She looked at Shui Shenglin, who was still kneeling and wouldn't get up. She had seen all of his expressions earlier and was convinced of his loyalty.

She pursed her lips slightly and began to speak.

"scale."

Summer Flower Painting uses a more affectionate name.

This stirred something within Shui Shenglin, who pressed his forehead to the ground, burying himself even deeper.

"Do what Xia Yuanliu asked you to do."

"Compared to Shui Sheng's ability to maintain the status quo, your talent is much better. If you satisfy me enough in the future, I will consider improving your talent."

"To enable you to reach Grade A through your own abilities."

Summer flowers painted a big pancake.

Of course, she also had the ability to realize this promise, devouring the power of the pseudo-Susanoo and discovering that the power of Natsumi Yoriyuu remained in his body.

These powers were neither appealing to her nor worth discarding.

The other subordinates also lack water-attribute power, but they can be given aquatic scales.

Upon hearing this, Shui Shenglin's deep blue eyes gleamed with fervor; he was completely captivated by Xia Rihua's charm.

His face screamed... loyalty! Honesty!

he shouted.

"You will not be disappointed!"

Upon hearing this, Natsumi Hanae nodded.

She returned to the high platform, her consciousness faded, and the statue lost its vitality.

The aquatic scales opened the door, welcoming the golden sunlight.

No one knew that the object of his loyalty had quietly and completely changed.

Chapter 125: Naraku Kamishiro's Fear of the Lord of Xiahuo Mountain

"This is the Summer Palace?"

Naraku Kamishiro and Shinobu Kujou were in the courtyard, muttering to themselves.

In a spacious and rustic Japanese garden.

The warm afternoon sun radiated its warmth, its dazzling rays bathing the earth.

The towering, massive oak tree stands firm and rooted here, its lush branches and leaves almost completely covering the courtyard, swaying gently in the breeze.

A message surfaced in Kujo Shinobu's mind.

The oak tree symbolizes eternity.

It symbolizes strength, glory, and unyielding endurance.

The tree in the summer chaebol family crest is this oak tree.

This oak tree is considered the iconic symbol of the Summer Family House. It stands in the center of the Summer Family House, with its branches extending outwards like human hands, covering the surrounding houses.

The crest of the Kujo Zaibatsu is rather ordinary, simply a copper coin, which is concise and to the point.

Then, Kujou Shinobu answered Naraku Kamishiro's question.

"This is the heart of the Summer Palace, and welcoming us here is already the highest level of hospitality."

Then, Kujou Shinobu's gaze slowly lowered.

Look down at the ground beneath the oak tree.

Barring any unforeseen circumstances, the deity of the Summer Zaibatsu will remain slumbering there.

Upon hearing this, Naraku Kamishiro...

He didn't speak further, his dark eyes flickering uncertainly within his black robe.

Upon entering the Summer Palace.

He sensed the abnormality of the Natsumi and Kujo residences. If the divinity within the Kujo residence was unique, it was a fusion of the two.

So, a very small portion of the divinity in the Summer Palace was incompatible with the majority of the divinity.

It feels like...

It was as if two gods existed together in this house.

Of course, this was just Naraku Kamishiro's idea.

After all, he didn't know many gods.

Except for Ebisu.

The Lord of Xiahuo Mountain can only be considered half a lord.

Yes, as he became more familiar with divinity, and based on his reference to Ebisu, he realized that the lord of Mount Xiahuo at that time was not a complete god.

And who knows, the deity of the Summer Palace might possess such an unusual power.

Although he had doubts, he suppressed them.

Moreover, there's no need to share this kind of information with Kujo Kaname.

At this moment, Naraku Kamishiro already had a bold idea in his mind.

According to Kujou Shinobu, Ebisu's sacred treasures, Misfortune and Fortune, have the effect of plundering the power of gods.

Even when facing extremely powerful deities like the Summer Zaibatsu, they can forcefully seize power through bloodline mediums.

This also means...

Naraku Kamishiro's dark eyes grew even deeper, and a twisted, confident smile curled at the corner of his lips.

—Misfortune and fortune can also affect Ebisu himself!

Kujou Kaname can transfer the power of the summer gods to himself, and he can also transfer the power of Ebisu to himself.

Moreover, Ebisu's fighting strength is even lower, making it likely that seizing Ebisu's power would be even easier.

Why didn't Kujo Shinobu seize Ebisu's power?

That's a very simple principle: Kujou Shinobu could take away Ebisu's power, but he couldn't do that.
