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

Well, Yuan Zhisheng.

With Tachibana Masamune dead and Uesugi Erie kidnapped, the head of the Minamoto clan and director of the Executive Bureau is indeed the last remaining figure among the Snake Eight Clans.

——He does have some cards.

At least, he didn't hear Morgan say "get out".

"I'm sorry, brother."

After Gen Chisei arrived, the person who greeted him was not Morgan, but Uesugi Erie, who had changed into pajamas and seemed to be getting ready for bed.

"Sister doesn't want to see you."

"She said, give them seven days. If the problem isn't resolved, she'll kill all the half-bloods on the island."

The little girl imitated the British witch's tone perfectly - then slammed the door shut again.

——But in the next moment, she secretly opened the door a little bit.

"I'm sorry, brother."

"My sister asked me to do this."

"This is the fruit my sister gave me. I heard it's a specialty of fairies and it's delicious."

"Here's one for you. Don't be mad at me, okay?"

The little witch passed a rose-red berry through the crack of the door and placed it in Yuan Zhisheng's hand.

"..."

Yuan Zhisheng was speechless as he held the berry in his hand.

Chapter 202: The Best Ramen Chef in Japan

Yuan Zhisheng came back with the fruit.

——There is one more confused person.

"So, can anyone tell me what exactly happened?"

"Which of you made her angry?"

Now, Minamoto no Chisei has just returned from the battlefield where he fought against the demons, and he has not even heard of Tachibana Masamune's death.

"What? The patriarch is dead?!"

"Damn it...what the hell happened here?! I was only away for less than a day!"

Yuan Zhisheng's face changed drastically.

These sudden major events hit him one after another, making him very confused... But at this point, he had to suppress his impetuous mood and deal with each thing one by one.

He understood that the first thing he had to do was to investigate the cause of Tachibana Masamune's death. The patriarch of the eight Snake families was forcibly killed by the Menggui Clan despite being heavily protected. There was definitely something fishy about it.

"follow me."

Yuan Zhisheng gritted his teeth, his face gloomy.

The other heads of the companies looked at each other, breathed a sigh of relief, and nodded.

——In this situation, it would be a great thing if someone was willing to stand up and take charge of the situation.

"What a troubled time."

Inuyama He became the only head of the Eight Snake Families who failed to keep up with Minamoto no Chisei's pace.

He just stood there and sighed as he watched Yuan Zhisheng and the other family heads leave.

Apart from Minamoto no Chisei and Uesugi Erie, he is the only family head who has had direct contact with Morgan.

Moreover, he once had a brief dispute and conflict with Morgan over whether Eri should be released.

Although that was not a glorious thing... Inuyama He could proudly say that through that argument, he had almost understood the woman named "Morgan Le Fay".

She was a stubborn and extremely petty woman.

She only cares about what she cares about - and she cares very much about what she cares about.

"Her changes are definitely related to the head of the Uesugi family."

"She felt that Patriarch Uesugi would be in danger, so she forcibly brought Patriarch Uesugi to her side."

"Furthermore, this danger is hidden in Tokyo... and even within the Snake Eight Clan."

"Otherwise, she wouldn't have said something like, 'If you can't resolve everything within seven days, then I'll kill you all.'"

The other leaders of the Sheqi Eight Clans have already left.

Only Inuyama He and Shirataki were left standing at the door of the villa, looking like they had nowhere to go.

Or maybe they don't really want to go anywhere.

"But from the beginning to the end, the only incident she encountered regarding our Sheqi Eight Families was the death of the patriarch."

"So... there's something wrong with the patriarch's death."

"Also, someone intends to use the death of the patriarch to harm the head of the Uesugi family."

"In fact, the one who intended to harm the head of the Uesugi family was the head of the family himself."

"Is it right?"

Inuyama He asked in a low voice.

He seemed to be asking Shirataki, but also seemed to be talking to himself.

Shirataki knew he didn't need an answer.

——He already had the answer in his heart.

……

Never doubt the wisdom of an old man.

Especially when this old man is one who has fought his way out of the dragon-slaying battlefield with mountains of corpses and seas of blood, and the turbulent political struggles, and is able to occupy a place in this country.

In addition to this "wisdom", the more important point is that he also has the means to match this wisdom.

"Sir God."

"Are you interested in going somewhere with me?"

Inuyama He did not act with the other family heads.

Just as he said, the Eight Snake Families are now in a turbulent time, even a precarious stage.

The patriarch is dead, the head of the Uesugi family has been captured, and the young master of the Minamoto family is struggling to support the family alone. The people of the other families appear to be honest, but who knows how many ulterior motives they have in their hearts.

For an alliance of interests, this is the most "dangerous" time.

He had to prepare for the worst.

"place?"

"Where?"

"I heard that your Inuyama family is involved in that kind of business... Could it be..."

Shirataki's eyes lit up.

The Eight Snake Families represent the combined power of the Japanese underworld, while the Inuyama family controls the entire Japanese "entertainment industry"—the somewhat unorthodox kind.

"Uh-huh."

“That’s that kind of business.”

"The unique characteristics of our Japan—the gods haven't experienced it yet, have they?!"

Inuyama He thought about it and nodded with certainty.

Then, under Shirataki's expectant gaze, he brought this god from another world to a ramen stall... located in the back streets of Tokyo University.

"Look, this is our most authentic Japanese specialty food!"

"Boss, two bowls of tonkotsu ramen, please—no spicy!"

……

This is definitely not a clean ramen stall.

In some corners, you can see many greasy stains that have not been dealt with for many years.

The booth is also very small, with only one table.

The ramen chef was lying in the back, his face covered with a ten-year-old Playboy magazine - no matter how you looked at it, he didn't look like he was seriously making ramen.

"Closed."

"Let's eat somewhere else."

Hearing Inuyama He's greeting, the ramen chef didn't even raise his head.

——Or maybe, now he is no longer able to “raise his head”.

Although his face was covered by the magazine, judging from the details on other parts of his body, he had already shown very obvious signs of "dragonization" all over his body.

Dragon horns, dragon scales, dragon wings... If other hybrids merely "show some dragon characteristics", then he is simply "the personification of the dragon".

How could he stand up and make ramen in this state?

"We also want to go somewhere else to eat ramen."

"But... well, if you ask me, this is the only place in Japan that has the most authentic ramen."

"If a god from another world came here and couldn't eat the most authentic Japanese ramen—that would be a great pity, wouldn't it?"

Inuyama He deliberately shouted at the top of his lungs.

At this moment, Shirataki finally understood why he invited him to go to this ramen stall.

——He lacks confidence and uses himself as a shield!

The ramen stand owner, Inuyama He, who called him "the best ramen chef in Japan," finally removed the magazine from his face after hearing the words "God from another world."

He stood up.

A pair of golden dragon pupils stood upright in his eye sockets, solemn and dangerous.

"Aha."

He said slowly.

"You wouldn't deliberately deceive me, would you?"

.

Chapter 203: White pantyhose are the best!

The owner of the ramen stall is named Uesugi Koshi.

Judging from the surname, we should know that this old man who looks younger than Inuyama Kazuki has a close relationship with the red-haired Uesugi Erii.

But in fact, apart from Shirataki, neither Inuyama He nor Uesugi Yue himself knew the true "relationship" between him and the little shrine maiden.

They only knew that the little shrine maiden was the current head of the Uesugi family, and the man in front of them was the head of the previous generation of the Uesugi family.

——And, more importantly.

The last generation of [Shadow Emperor]!

"God."

“I didn’t expect that such a thing actually existed.”

Uesugi Yue looked at Shirataki.

His pupils narrowed slightly, revealing a rare solemnity. All his muscles tensed, a long-lost strength boiling within him once again—but in the next instant, it subsided.

"It's too late."
