I started with Demon Slayer, and after drawing the strongest character, I'm invincible!

[Wu, I'm back.]

A weak, feeble voice echoed in Gojo Satoru's mind. It felt that it had been bearing too much that it shouldn't have had to bear during this period of time.

[Hmm? Had enough fun? Finally decided to come back?]

Gojo Satoru sensed the unhappiness in 666's tone and became intrigued.

[What's wrong? Did you have a fight with your friend?]

666 has always been an optimistic and cheerful person, and this is the first time he has seen it so depressed. Considering its previous whereabouts, his guess is reasonable and should be correct.

[No, we didn't argue. Sigh... Wu, I have something very important to tell you.]

666 couldn't help but sigh when thinking about the mess that had happened recently. It was just an ordinary system, so why did it have to encounter such a thing?

[How important is it? Is the world about to end?]

While Gojo Satoru was busy grabbing a small cake from Ranpo, he casually muttered "666" to himself.

[That's not the case... You may not know, but it's not by chance that Byakuran and Ranpo appeared in this world.]

This was all part of their plan; they wanted to merge their respective worlds to create a new one.

666 is so worried. Logically speaking, something like global integration shouldn't concern it.

Either the merger succeeds and everyone is happy, or the merger fails, the world collapses, and everyone says goodbye.

But none of this matters to it; it can take its host to another world before the world collapses.

Although it sincerely hoped that Byakuran's plan would succeed, it really couldn't interfere in matters of world integration; that would be a violation of the rules.

[Oh, I know that. Ranpo and the others told me about it. So, is there a problem?]

Gojo Satoru looked completely nonchalant, not at all considering the merging of the worlds to be a big deal.

If the sky falls, there are tall people to hold it up. What's there to be afraid of? If we fail, we can just find outside help.

[This is a huge problem. I have no problem with their global integration efforts, but don't drag me into it. Do you know what Byakuran has done?]

666 is truly speechless. It's a perfectly good system that never breaks the rules (not counting credit purchases or small transactions with 888), but Bai Lan messed things up and tricked it into violating the rules.

If the system interferes with the world fusion, it will at best deduct levels and energy points, and at worst, it will have to be rebuilt from scratch.

Was it easy for it to reach the maximum level of the system? Byakuran has really screwed it over this time.

"What did he do?" Gojo Satoru asked curiously.

Hearing 666's aggrieved and sad tone, he was really curious about what Bai Lan had done.

[He had his and Ranpo's world consciousness gang up on me and Xiao Ke! He forced me to act as the glue that held our worlds together.]

[Waaaaah... I'm doomed. The main system will definitely send me back for rework after it finds out I broke the rules. You might never see me again.]

666 was so upset. It was just going to play with its friends as usual that day, who knew it would encounter something like this?

Xiao Jia (family education world consciousness) and Xiao Wen (Wen Quan world consciousness) hit it really hard, it hurts so much.

[No, your main system is incredibly busy; it wouldn't have time for such a trivial matter. If something really goes wrong, I'll use energy points to redeem you.]

Seeing 666 crying, Gojo Satoru offered a rare word of comfort.

666's experience was rather tragic, but he still wanted to laugh a little. However, considering how miserable it was, he decided to hold back.

"Pfft, hahaha..." He couldn't hold back anymore. How could there be such an unlucky system?

Minglan's plan was to have Xiaojia and Xiaowen have a friendly exchange with Xiaoke, using the tactic of politeness before force. 666 had nothing to do with this plan; he just delivered himself to her doorstep.

Gojo Satoru suddenly burst out laughing, leaving Edogawa Ranpo, who was sitting opposite him, somewhat bewildered.

As for Xia Youjie, he was already used to his best friend's occasional eccentricities and calmly took a sip of juice.

[Wu, your behavior is really hurting Tong's feelings. If you keep doing this, I'm going to run away from home.] 666 said in a resentful tone.

Even in this state, Gojo Satoru can still laugh; all those years of affection were ultimately wasted.

Sigh, it's really lucky to have such a hilarious host.

[Tsk, your acting skills might fool your naive friend, but I know you too well. If you really didn't want to help, you would have slipped back long ago. You wouldn't have been caught and threatened.]

Gojou knows 666 so well; seeing that it still has the energy to make a fuss, he knows that things aren't as exaggerated as it says.

The reason it portrayed itself as so miserable was probably to sow discord among Bai Lan's eyes.

This world is Xiao Ke's home turf. Together with 666, it definitely outshines Xiao Jia and Xiao Wen. How could the situation be as serious as 666 said?

Unless 666 is willing to help, no one can threaten it. Its only advantage is that it runs fast, and it is very difficult to catch it.

[Ha, ha... No, that's not true. I really had no choice. I'm a law-abiding system; how could I knowingly break the law?]

666 gave an awkward laugh and quickly denied it three times.

Just kidding. If it admits that it helped voluntarily, even if the main system is too lazy to bother with this little Karami, it will still use it as a negative example and send it back for rework.

Gojo Satoru didn't dwell on the matter. 666 was probably willing to help because of him; why would he undermine his partner?

666: "..." ╮(￣⊿￣)╭ You've already taken it apart, okay?

666 ran away again in less than ten minutes after it came back. It only said one sentence, "This world needs (Xiao Ke)," and then it ran away. It was so excited, as if it had taken some kind of stimulant.

------

Italy, Sicily.

Gin and Amuro Tooru escaped the enemy's pursuit once again, and after shaking off their pursuers, they returned to their temporary safe house in Sicily, a slum.

"Bourbon, have you found out who's chasing us?"

Gin had a gloomy face. They had been ambushed by an unknown force as soon as they arrived in Sicily, and they had spent the last two weeks being hunted down.

It wasn't that they didn't want to fight back; what was truly baffling was that the organization's members stationed in Sicily seemed to have vanished into thin air, and they couldn't be found at all.

Without any help, it would be too difficult for the three of them to fight back.

Waves of people were chasing them, as if several forces were collectively pursuing them.

As for why they didn't ask the organization for help? It might sound a bit far-fetched, but the truth is that their communication equipment stopped working after they entered Sicily.

Moreover, the entire island of Sicily was under lockdown, so they had no way to leave.

"The Vongola Family, the leading family in the underworld, and its ally, the Millefiore Family (founded by Byakuran for research into time travel)."

Amuro Tooru's expression was somewhat grim. He had investigated the local forces in Sicily, and the intelligence data at the time did not mention these two families at all; it was as if they had appeared out of thin air.

"Any news about vodka?"

Gin frowned involuntarily. Vodka had been arrested three days ago and had been shot when he was arrested.

He didn't know why the Vongola family was hunting them down, but he knew the mafia's ways very well; the mafia wouldn't be kind enough to heal their enemies.

Now he can't even be sure if Vodka is still alive...

"No, but I found out about a Vongola family stronghold."

Amuro Tooru shook his head. He knew Gin wanted to save Vodka, but under normal circumstances, he wouldn't agree with Gin doing so.

However, Vodka was captured in order to draw away their pursuers. Under these circumstances, he and Gin reached a consensus to find a way to rescue Vodka first.

"I'll infiltrate their base tonight to check things out. You continue gathering intelligence on the Vongola Family."

Gin quickly finalized his next plan; they had to act quickly, as the longer they dragged it out, the slimmer Vodka's chances of survival would become.
