Holy Grail War? Dragon Ball War

"Oh, it seems your aftermath went quite smoothly."

A phantom, resembling a projection, appeared before Zheng Xue. Upon hearing Zheng Chenggong's voice, she glanced at him, remaining unmoved.

The riots in Edo Castle were nothing compared to what was happening in Edo.

In any case, only the Masters know the secrets of this war, and from the outside world's perspective, it will only be a premeditated "assassination" operation.

As long as she doesn't make any strange statements, even if the people in the shogunate become suspicious, Tsuchimikado will cover for her.

"Haha, as expected of a celebrity, so composed."

"I'll go first."

This could be considered a regular communication as part of an alliance, and Zheng Chenggong showed no intention of continuing to be careless.

"Although it's just information from some sources, I've heard that there are foreigners settling in Yokosuka."

"?"

Upon hearing this, Xiu frowned, realizing that Zheng Xue had never paid attention to this matter before.

Since Zheng Chenggong brought it up, it's probably related to a certain master and follower.

"That's not exactly accurate information."

"But I think it's worth exploring."

"So I sent my attendants to take a look."

"Traces of a suspected magic trick have been discovered."

The phantom spoke while seated, and Yukino knelt on the ground listening.

"We couldn't investigate any further, because places worth exploring couldn't be infiltrated so easily."

Being able to discover that magic exists is already a very good reward. Zheng Chenggong believes that it is unrealistic to actually encounter the so-called Master on the road.

No one would be so careless as to show up in public.

Especially after a major battle, each master and servant would be wary of attacks from the other, and would therefore choose to hide.

"Yokosuka?"

"I understand."

An investigation is needed into the situation of people who recently entered Hong Kong from that area.

Although it's troublesome, I'm sure it will leave some clues.

If Zhengxue wanted to use her power to do it, she could still obtain the relevant list.

It's just unclear whether it was a trace of magic left there by an ordinary magician or a Master who was setting up the workshop.

The former is fine. But if it's the latter...

Then you need to carefully consider the consequences of going to that area.

"Well, I still suggest you act cautiously."

"So far, things have been peaceful. There is still time."

There was no intention of making a scene or causing trouble; Zheng Chenggong spent most of this time resting at his headquarters.

Aside from waiting for Yoriichi Tsugikuni's injuries to heal, they were simply investigating suspicious areas.

After all, sooner or later, there will be conflicts between Servants, and the situation will become clear after they leave the stage.

As long as the alliance with Masayuki remains undiscovered, the combined strength of the two Sabers will always give them the upper hand in this war.

Therefore, there is no need to rush anything.

Therefore, his current plan leans more towards "waiting" rather than "taking action".

"That's quite a leisurely approach."

Zhengxue couldn't really say she refused.

Zheng Chenggong's strategy was the most effective.

With all seven of her followers still alive and the situation still chaotic, if she were to take the initiative, it would indeed be easy for her to cause a ripple effect.

It's not time to get involved yet.

She shared this view, believing that preserving their strength, working with Zheng Chenggong to defeat the others, and ultimately achieving victory was the most straightforward approach.

Of course, this is on the premise that the other Masters have not formed an alliance.

Otherwise, it's hard to say what kind of chaotic battle it would eventually turn into.

Zhengxue was well aware of this.

According to her investigation, there may indeed be two groups that have come together.

"The vulnerabilities still need to be patched."

"Yoshiwara."

"Ok?"

Zheng Chenggong was slightly taken aback upon hearing Zheng Xue's words.

“Miyamoto Iori and his entourage frequent that area.”

"It took about two days before we saw any signs of them leaving."

"Oh, you stayed in a place like Yoshiwara for two days? You really know how to enjoy yourself."

Stroking his chin, Zheng Chenggong looked at the young man with new respect.

The big battle hasn't arrived yet, but he's certainly enjoying himself.

He misunderstood what Zhengxue meant.

"No, that's not it."

I mean, there might be a Master in Yoshiwara.

Zhengxue coughed and said in a deep voice.

"Ahaha, is that so?"

"Indeed, it's possible in places like that."

Once he realized what was happening, Zheng Chenggong simply laughed twice, showing no embarrassment whatsoever.

He was subconsciously misled by the Master identity of "Miyamoto Iori" and failed to realize that Yoshiwara itself was the place most worthy of attention.

(There might still be bureaucrats there with ties to the shogunate.)

"Hmm, I feel like it will be more complicated than Yokosuka."

After a moment's serious thought, Zheng Chenggong roughly understood what Zheng Xue meant.

Miyamoto Iori traveled to Yoshiwara with her Servants, perhaps to meet a Master.

This led to the formation of an alliance between him and Zhengxue.

Otherwise, there's no reason for them to stay there for two days before leaving.

It's impossible that he was really having an affair in Yoshiwara, right?

According to Zhengxue's intelligence, the other party is not a lecherous person; on the contrary, he is a very down-to-earth swordsman.

Such a person wouldn't act without a reason.

"Therefore, the division of labor is very clear."

"Oh, that's true."

Upon hearing this, they both understood.

"I'll leave Miyamoto Iori and Yoshiwara's situation to you. I'll take care of Yokosuka."

It can be considered a collaboration between the two sides as allies, so they have to show some ability.

Otherwise, if we just wait and see, it's really hard to say how the situation will develop.

Taking the initiative is always the truth.

No one wants to be in a forced and awkward situation.

"no problem."

"Oh, right, there's one more piece of news."

As the conversation drew to a close, Zhengxue suddenly remembered something.

"Ok?"

Not knowing what the other party meant, Zheng Chenggong waited for further explanation.

"That Saber Roronoa Zoro."

"We are still inside Edo Castle."

"Huh?"
