Anime: Blue-Eyes Baby Dragon, picked up by the Knight King

The roar of the jet sounded over the city. It passed through the neon-colored city like a ray of white light and landed precisely on top of a building like a helicopter.

"The head of the Uesugi family."

"Next time, we can park somewhere else."

"There's no need... to... stop here..."

The two teenagers who got off the plane were pale and their lips were trembling.

They didn't even have time to greet the other family heads who were waiting on the roof. They just covered their stomachs and ran to a corner to vomit.

Sakura Yabuki's face didn't look good either.

But as a girl, she was more careful than the two seventeen or eighteen-year-old boys.

——With Minamoto no Chisei not around, she is now the representative of the Minamoto family and has to stay with Uesugi Erii every step of the way.

"The head of the Uesugi family, the head of the Inuyama family."

"You have worked hard on this trip."

There were many people picking me up at the airport, but only four of them were truly important.

The heads of the four families, Fuma, Ryoma, Sakurai, and Miyamoto, stood there at the same time, smiling and greeting Uesugi Eri as she stepped off the plane.

At the same time, in the next moment, he looked at the man who was just a "Blue-Eyed Jet" but turned into a human being in the next moment with a fearful and fiery look.

"This is... God."

At this moment, these words echoed in everyone's mind.

Although recalling Uesugi Erie was actually their original intention, they didn't expect that they could actually gain a god for free through this operation - such an unexpected surprise made the people of the Snake Eight Families almost feel their hearts in their throats.

Morgan, who was standing behind Shirataki, looked at these family heads with a very unfriendly look, whose eyes were filled with eagerness.

Frankly, she hated them.

The looks in these people's eyes reminded her of something very bad... their greed for profit, their willingness to betray anyone as long as the reward was generous enough, made her feel as if she had returned to ancient Britain and was facing those "false kings" again.

——Or perhaps the world itself has not changed.

Whether it's ancient or modern, whether it's this world or theirs, although the external manifestations are different, the foundation is the same.

"A swarm of insects."

As she thought about this, the look she gave Uesugi Eriya became even gentler and more determined.

——This is why she likes Uesugi Eri so much.

It wasn't just because this little 863 witch was like a "little red dragon," inspiring the maternal instinct hidden within her. More importantly, Morgan saw her own reflection in this little creature—the little princess of Camelot, pure, kind, and carefree.

A big part of the reason why she presented those beautiful things to Uesugi Eri was to make up for her own regrets.

As for Shirataki.

"one two Three……"

He was actually here, counting heads.

"its not right."

"Including Yuan Zhisheng who just left, there are only seven family heads in total."

"Aren't they the Eight Snake Clan?"

"Why, is it that my level is not enough to attract the visit of all the heads of the eight Sheqi families?"

Shirataki said jokingly.

But there was no smile on his calm face.

——At this moment, the heads of the eight Sheqi families had no doubt that if their answers could not satisfy the god, he would definitely bring down divine punishment immediately.

But, not bad.

Although this is indeed a bit rude, their reasons are still very sufficient.

"that……"

"In fact, this is also the reason why we are so anxious to bring back the head of the Genji family and the head of the Uesugi family."

"And Master Inuyama, please forgive us for concealing this, but we have no choice."

"The head of the family...is dead."

Chapter 198 Morgan: Hmm, it smells like a colleague

"The head of the family".

If we look at it from the perspective of the Snake Eight Clans, or even the entire Japanese mixed-race population, this term actually refers to Minamoto no Chisei.

After all, that young man, who was only twenty years old, was the Emperor of the Japanese mixed-race forces and the real "Amaterasu".

He is the theoretical supreme leader of the Japanese mixed-race people, and all the eight Snake families must obey his orders.

"But, if we look at it from our perspective... the head of the family actually refers to the head of the Tachibana family."

【Masamune Tachibana】.

A mixed-race person who suddenly appeared in Japan in 1991. His previous experience and identity are unknown.

But it was this person who had nothing, but he integrated the chaotic Japanese underworld forces at that time and established the prototype of the current Snake Eight Families.

In addition, he also found and adopted Minamoto no Chisei and Uesugi Erie from the countryside - with the addition of these two [Emperor]-level hybrids, the Japanese branch truly gained the power to compete with the Secret Party.

This old man named Tachibana Masamune is extremely important to Japan, to the Snake Eight Clans, to Minamoto no Nakasei and Uesugi Erie...

"If it's Gen-kun, our spiritual leader."

"Then he is our mentor."

"There were many policies... that we strongly opposed at the time, but he himself forced them through."

"It turned out later that his choice was correct. We were the more stubborn group."

Genji Heavy Industries, in the freezer on the fifth underground floor.

Inuyama He looked at the old man lying in the ice coffin with a slightly sad expression.

In his life, there were two old people whom he hated the most but also respected the most.

One is Ange, and the other is Tachibana Masamune.

Ange crushed his youthful arrogance; Tachibana Masamune curbed his edge in middle age.

But he had to admit that the Snake Eight Clan, and even the entire Japanese mixed-blood power, had developed to its current level thanks to this old man.

Moreover, although Tachibana Masamune was very good at using power, he was not greedy for power at all - otherwise, he would not have devoted all his efforts to train Minamoto no Chisei and made this 20-year-old boy become the "young master" who could truly take charge of the Japanese underworld.

But, now.

Such an old man who enjoyed a very important position in Japan and could be said to be "highly respected" just died like this.

He died in a sneak attack by the [Ghost Clan].

The dagger stuck in his chest silently told the fundamental cause of his death, and in addition, the dense wounds on his body showed how bravely he fought against the enemy in his lifetime - Inuyama He closed his eyes, unable to bear to watch this horrific scene.

"who is it--"

"Who was responsible for protecting the head of the family at that time?"

Inuyama He couldn't believe that those people from the Mengguishu could sneak up on Tachibana Masamune silently and kill him so openly.

traitor!

There must be a traitor among them!

"The one who was in charge of protecting the head of the family at that time was Hanzo of the Fuma family."

"But Hanzo, including his ninja subordinates, have all died in the battle with the Oni Clan."

"We don't know exactly what happened, but from the surveillance footage... they fought bravely."

The person who spoke was the head of the Yokomiya family. He took the initiative to retrieve the video footage from the incident. In the video, a man wearing a metal mask and holding a long sword was slaughtering everyone in the secret base where Tachibana Masamune was staying. He easily wiped out all the guards, including Tachibana Masamune.

【Dragon King】.

Among all the fierce demons, he is the only powerful hybrid that can rival Minamoto no Chisei, who is the [Amaterasu].

Although he is unwilling to admit it... his strength is definitely at the "Emperor" level.

"Did they launch a surprise attack on us while the young master and the head of the Uesugi family were away?"

"The fierce ghost group... really caught us off guard."

There was anger, fear, but also helplessness on Inuyama He's face.

——If you want to gain something, you must lose something.

This is an eternal truth.

The Eight Snake Clans were blinded by the White King's Sacred Remains, allowing the Fierce Ghosts to seize their weakest moment—a clean, beautiful attack. Even from the enemy's perspective, Inuyama He applauded their actions.

then.

"Could you two please go and rest for a while?"

"We, the Eight Snake Clan... have some matters to deal with."

Tachibana Masamune was dead, and Minamoto no Nakasei was no longer around.

Inuyama He automatically became the representative of the Snake Eight Families and took the initiative to negotiate with Shirataki and Morgan.

As for Uesugi Erie...

Looking at the red-haired girl whose expression was dull and whose rose-red eyes had lost their luster for the first time, Inuyama He shook his head.

To Uesugi Erie, this man named Tachibana Masamune is like her father.

At this time, she should be very sad, right?

……

Shirataki and Morgan were asked to leave the Genji Heavy Industries building by the Snake Eight Families.

——An internal family meeting will be held next. No matter what, it is not appropriate for Shirataki and Morgan to stay here any longer.

However, they did not treat these two "guests" who came from afar badly.

Call it respect or surveillance? They sent a driver and a tour guide, as well as a seaside villa in the port area, as a temporary resting place for Shirataki and Morgan.

"I'll just stay here."

When she arrived at the villa, Morgan's homebody nature broke out again.

She occupied the second and third floors - no idea what she needed so many rooms for.

Also, worth it.

Although she did not know the true identity of Tachibana Masamune, she had already smelled a hint of conspiracy from his "death".

——We are all in the same industry, so let’s not perform “Rashomon” here.

"You mean, he faked his death?"

Shirataki was curious.

He knew the true identity of Tachibana Masamune, so he naturally knew that he could not be killed by the Oni Shuu - that guy was the highest-ranking official of the Oni Shuu.

But then again, he also carefully examined the body.

"But there's nothing unusual about that body."

"There's no sign of disguise... He's definitely dead."

Shirataki was certain, yet confused.

Tachibana Masamune is really dead - but how is this possible?

This unexpected turn of events made Bai Long, who had originally planned to "cut the Gordian knot" here, a little unsure of how to proceed.

however.
