Collapse, but Stand users

"Mei, do you really not need me to go down with you?"

"No need, Alicia. The deepest place isn't as dangerous as you imagine. Besides, only by experiencing it firsthand can you understand what the so-called 'commandments' really are."

"Then I won't stop you. I hope you get the answer you want."

After saying that, Alicia watched Mei walk into the deepest part of the world.

......

After they came out, Mei gathered everyone together.

"So, what did you find?" Alicia asked Mei.

"Hmm... [Discipline] is indeed a dangerous ability; it's not just a simple mental suggestion."

"It can even change a person from the inside out, both in terms of their thoughts and their behavior."

"Boss, what do you mean?"

Paddy was a little confused and asked Kira Yoshikage in a low voice.

"Simply put, it's just that one sentence from her could turn Yoshikage Kira into someone with a personality like Alicia."

Before Yoshikage Kira could speak, Mebius gave his reply.

Imagine Kira Kijima being as enthusiastic as Alicia towards everyone, and Paddo shook her head vigorously, as if trying to shake that scene out of her mind.

'I hope the boss will continue to favor me like he does now.' Thinking this, Pado grinned foolishly at Yoshikage Kira.

"That's another matter. Aponia has mentioned Yoshikage Kira many times and claimed that the [Precepts] do not apply to Yoshikage Kira."

All eyes immediately turned to Yoshikage Kira.

Yoshikage Kira nodded.

"My stand-in took the hit for me."

After a moment's thought, Mei stopped thinking about what Aponia had said about Yoshikage Kira.

"The main reason I've gathered everyone here is that I think Aponia and Thousand Calamities are invaluable assets, and I wanted to ask what everyone's thoughts are."

Everyone said they had no objections.

"Then, let's go and meet our new member."

......

"Hi, is your name Qianjie?"

"roll."

"Hmm...it seems this new friend isn't very friendly...but we're here to invite you to join us, so why not consider it?"

"Joining you, hehe...hahaha! Was that woman who ran around killing people in Twilight Street and destroyed my temporary shelter an invitation? How ridiculous."

"Please be polite, Qianjie. That was not Miss Ying's intention."

"Mind your own business, Aponia. You're not my guardian! You're just like that woman, a bunch of hypocrites."

After saying that, Qianjie turned his body around, facing away from everyone.

"It's no good, boss. This hot-tempered guy won't listen to us at all."

Yoshikage Kira reached out and touched the railing, made of some unknown material, that was imprisoning Senja.

"killer queen"

The railings were destroyed by the explosion, and Yoshikage Kira went inside.

Senju suddenly sprang into action and punched Yoshikage Kira in the face.

Yoshikage Kira raised his hand and casually caught the fist thrown by Senjaku.

"Go out and have a match. If I win, you can join us."

"Oh, so you lost?"

"Don't worry, I won't lose."

"Heh, interesting. Come on, I will burn you to ashes."

Kira Yoshikage led Senju out, and as they passed the crowd, he instructed them to negotiate with Aponia first.

"Be careful, Yoshikage Kira, don't kill Senju." Alicia warned.

Kira Yoshikage nodded, only to feel that Senjaku's anger had intensified.

"Hehe, I'm going to watch the show."

"Hua, let's go too." Carol suggested to Hua after seeing Pado run off.

"Hey, let's go, let's go. Anyway, we can leave the negotiations to Sister Ellie. We don't need to get involved." Seeing that Hua was somewhat interested, Carol simply pulled her away.

"Then I'll... never mind, I'll stay with Mei."

"Thank you, Kevin."

“I heard the conversation just now. I’m willing to join you. Senju’s power is very strong. We should go out and check on Mr. Kira Yoshikage.”

"Oh? In that case, let's go out and take a look." Alicia clapped her hands and said with a smile.

......

"Go, boss! Teach this rude guy a lesson!" Pado shouted, cheering for Yoshikage Kira.

Hearing Pado's words, Qianjie glared at her fiercely. Pado hid behind Alicia and shouted loudly again.

"Boss, he glared at me. Quick, teach him a lesson."

The others also cheered for Yoshikage Kira.

"What, aren't you going to start fighting yet?" Qianjie said impatiently.

"Ahem, well then, 3, 2, 1, begin!" Alicia waved her little flag, announcing the start of the duel.

"Haha, let me..."

Senju pushed off the ground with his right foot and charged toward Kira Yoshikage. He was only halfway through his sentence when he felt a dizzying sensation and found himself lying on the ground.

"The boss is mighty, Wuhu!"

"That was fast! Sakura, did you see his movements clearly?" Kevin asked Sakura, shocked by Kira Yoshikage's speed.

“No…” Sakura shook her head.

"Hahaha! Very good, very good! This is what makes a battle interesting! Let's fight to the death!"

......

"Hahaha, let's do it again!"

......

"Is that all the strength you have? I can still fight."

......

"Come again, come again!"

After countless exchanges, Yoshikage Kira finally spoke to the battered Senju, saying, "That's enough, isn't it? You'll die if this continues."

"Heh, what is there to fear in death! Let us fight to the death!"

"What's the point of dying here?"

"...So what if it's meaningless? What makes something meaningful?"

Yoshikage Kira slowly walked towards Senju and reached out his hand.

"Hold my hand and join us."

Senju stared into Kira Yoshikage's eyes and remained silent for a moment.

"I lost, I will join you."

Having said that, he turned and left, preparing to head to the deepest part of the world.

Yoshikage Kira retracted his hand, which was suspended in mid-air.

“We will arrange accommodation for you, so you don’t need to go back to the deepest part of the world.”

"Treat this place as your... third home."

Upon hearing this, Senju turned around sharply and stared intently at Yoshikage Kira, who simply stood there calmly.

as always.

"Tsk."

He clenched his fist and then let it fall back down.

"up to you."

'Is this... tsundere?' Kira Yoshikage pondered, watching Senju's retreating figure.
