Jing Shenggang and the others around him also lowered their heads, their faces filled with resentment and helplessness.
Only the cawing of crows and heavy breathing remained on the rooftop.
The oppressive atmosphere almost froze.
Genjiro Yoshiki took a deep breath, his voice as firm as a rock: "Now, we only have one path: put aside past grievances, unite, and gather the strength of the entire Suzuran Southwest Branch! Only in this way can we defend Suzuran against Housen's attack, and only then will we have a chance to avenge the humiliation that Ryuji Kurosaki brought upon us!"
He stretched out his right hand, palm up, his gaze fixed intently on Kawanishi Noboru, then on Nakai: "For Suzuran! In a month, we'll take down Housen!"
All eyes were on Kawanishi Noboru and Nakai.
The air seemed to freeze for a few seconds.
Kawanishi looked at Yoshiki's outstretched hand, then at the words "Lily of the Valley Summit" on the wall.
In the end, the usual arrogance on his face was replaced by a deeper determination.
He chuckled, seemingly mocking his own compromise, but his actions were unusually decisive.
He stepped forward and slapped Jia Mu's hand hard, making a crisp sound: "Hmph! I'm going to take the pinnacle of Linglan! But before that... I really need to beat those bald guys from Fengxian down first!"
Finally, everyone's eyes turned to Zhongjing.
Zhongjing gritted his teeth, his arms still throbbing with pain, a constant reminder of that humiliation.
He glanced at Yoshiki Genjiro, then at Kawanishi Noboru, and at his companions beside him.
Finally, his gaze fell on his own name, which was painted on the wall and now seemed so glaring.
"..."
Zhong Jing's Adam's apple bobbed, and he exhaled a breath of stale air. All the humiliation and resentment in his eyes finally transformed into a fierce determination to burn his bridges.
He then stepped forward and placed his own hand down as well.
"Damn it! I'll take down Housen! I'm going to tear Kurosaki Ryuji apart with my own hands!!!"
The three hands represent different stances and different ambitions.
Beneath the graffiti of "Lily of the Valley Summit," under the watchful eyes of crows, and in the desolate wind of the dilapidated rooftop, they were tightly stacked together.
Under unprecedented pressure from Ryuji Kurosaki, the Southwest Branch School of Suzuran was established, forming an alliance of three major factions.
Under the gloomy sky, the flock of crows seemed to be disturbed by their determined fighting spirit. They flapped their wings and took flight with a whoosh, skimming over the rusty barbed wire and flying towards the even darker distance.
Chapter 131 Movements from All Sides
at this time.
The news that Ryuji Kurosaki single-handedly stormed into Suzuran Southwest Branch School, not only issuing a challenge but also causing a ruckus, and then escaped unscathed.
It was like dropping a bombshell on the delinquent youth community in Toya City, causing a shock far beyond imagination.
Following this, news broke that under unprecedented pressure, the Southwest Branch of Suzuran had formed an alliance with the three faction leaders: Noboru Kawanishi, Nakai, and Genjiro Kagi.
These two pieces of news spread like wildfire, igniting every corner of the world.
Lily of the Valley Main Campus.
The old-fashioned restrooms are on the first floor of the teaching building.
Cigarette smoke filled the narrow, graffiti-covered space, making the air stale.
Four boys dressed in lily of the valley uniforms huddled together, puffing away on cigarettes.
The leader was named Mamiya Asuka, sporting an unruly hairstyle and sharp eyes that revealed undisguised ambition.
Beside him were the relatively small but fierce-looking bird Ya Lan, the somewhat gloomy-looking Xiu, and the burly Mutou Daibao.
"Hey, have you heard? Those useless guys at the Southwest Branch School!"
Mamiya Asuka took a deep drag on her cigarette, flicked the butt into the puddle of the toilet with a soft hiss, and her face was full of contempt and disdain: "They came knocking on our door with one of Housen's guys and didn't even leave a hair on their head, and they're so scared that they're huddling together for warmth? They've really disgraced Suzuran!"
Little Bird Orchid chuckled and chimed in, "Yeah, especially that Zhong Jing. They say he can't even block one punch from someone. And he's supposed to be the leader of one of the three major factions in the Southwest Branch School."
"A rabble."
Xiu's voice was low and cold as he chuckled: "I heard they formed some kind of three-party alliance? How laughable, they only thought of banding together when they were driven to the brink."
Muto Daiho simply exhaled a puff of smoke in silence, his eyes somewhat blurred behind the smoke, but he nodded slightly in agreement.
Asuka Mamiya, hands in her pockets, leaned back slightly against the cold tile wall, a smug, ambitious smile playing on her lips: "Hmph, let them make a scene. Once I've completely crushed this main campus and unified Suzuran Main Campus..."
His eyes suddenly turned fierce and sharp: "The next target is to take care of that disgraceful trash from the Southwest Branch! Let them know what the true pinnacle of Suzuran is! When that happens, the entire Toaru will remember the name of Mamiya Asuka!"
His words were filled with a thirst for power and contempt for the Southwest Branch, as if it were already prey within easy reach.
Amidst the swirling smoke, four first-year students appeared, ambitious and restless.
Lily of the Valley Main Campus, rooftop.
Unlike the dilapidated rooftop of the Southwest Branch Campus, the rooftop of the main campus is more open and windier.
A man of exceptionally tall and robust build, like an iron tower, sat on a concrete block on the edge of the rooftop. His loose-fitting clothes could not conceal the outline of his bulging muscles.
He is none other than Andoru, the legendary monster of Suzuran Main Campus, commonly known as the ultimate creature of Suzuran.
Sitting next to him was a man with a similarly calm demeanor and a buzz cut; he was Minister Osora and one of the strongest members of the current Suzuran Headquarters.
At that moment, heavy footsteps approached from afar, and a man wearing dark sunglasses and a baseball cap with the brim pulled low, almost covering half of his face, slowly walked onto the rooftop.
He had a faint smile on his lips, looking harmless, but those who underestimated him all paid a heavy price.
He is a veteran powerhouse in the third year of Suzuran Main School, Honma Masano Takeru, commonly known as Ashura.
Takeshi Honma walked up to the two of them, stopped, and without any further pleasantries, spoke directly in a low and hoarse voice: "The news has been confirmed. The Southwest Branch School, Kawanishi, Nakai, and Yoshiki have joined forces. The cause was that Ryuji Kurosaki from the Northeast Branch School of Housen went in alone, defeated Nakai with a single punch, and escaped unscathed."
Minister Ozora raised an eyebrow slightly and exhaled a smoke ring: "Oh? That Ryuji Kurosaki? He's got guts, and his strength is certainly formidable."
An Tenglong, who had been silent all along, slowly raised his head. His deep, resonant voice rang out, like muffled thunder: "Interesting. That Kurosaki Ryuji... did it on purpose."
Minister Osaka and Takeshi Honma both looked at him.
Andrew continued, "He went alone, displaying overwhelming power, creating immense panic and humiliation, forcing the Southwest campus to put aside their prejudices and unite against the external threat, and then crushing the entire Southwest campus in one fell swoop!"
A rare look of admiration appeared on his rugged face: "Such magnanimity, such confidence... It seems that someone extraordinary has emerged from Fengxian. I really want to go and meet him!"
"We have more important things to do at the main campus right now, so we don't have time to go and visit Fengxian."
Minister Osaka exhaled smoke, his voice icy and cold, devoid of any emotion.
Andrew remained silent for a moment, then finally nodded, his massive body returning to a rock-solid stillness.
He gazed in the direction of the distant Housen, his deep interest in Ryuji Kurosaki still present, though temporarily suppressed.
Takeshi Honma's sunglasses concealed all his expressions; he merely nodded slightly, the shadow under his hat deepening.
On the rooftop, the three fell silent once again, but the storm brewing in the air seemed even more profound and terrifying than that at the Southwest Branch School.
Fengxian Northeast Branch School, Judo Center.
Ueda Sashio sat on the left side of the dojo, with Tsukimoto Mitsumasa above him and the other executives around him.
"The news is true, Tsukimoto-nii!"
At that moment, Hideaki Inakawa rushed open the dojo door and said to everyone present, "That guy Ryuji Kurosaki... he really rushed into Suzuran Southwest Branch School by himself, and in front of everyone, he punched their boss Nakai so hard that he vomited blood and staggered backward, and finally... walked out unharmed!"
Hideaki Incheon was in the same grade as Sasio Ueda, and he was also recognized as a member of Housen Executive in his first year.
Another bald henchman following Hideaki Incheon excitedly added, "And I heard that because Ryuji Kurosaki caused such a ruckus, the three bosses in Suzuran Southwest who didn't get along with each other—Noboru Kawanishi, Nakai, and Genjiro Kagi—were actually forced to join forces!"
Sitting at the top, Mitsumasa Tsukimoto took a deep drag of his cigarette and slowly exhaled. Amidst the swirling smoke, his eyes held a complex mix of shock, admiration, and an indescribable sense of pressure.
···Requesting flowers·· ···
"One person...forced the Southwest Branch School of Suzuran to band together for warmth..."
He muttered to himself, his voice filled with genuine admiration: "Kurosaki Ryuji... just how strong are you? Our new branch leader of the Housen Northwest Branch School, this courage, this strength... we have to admire him!"
"Yes!"
Ueda Sashio and the other Housen executives around him nodded in agreement.
On the other side, at the Fengxian Main Campus, there was an empty classroom.
The Buddha statue at the temple gate sat cross-legged in the middle of the classroom, gazing sadly out the window, muttering to himself, "Three girls ran away when they saw me today. Am I really that scary?"
Beside him stood several other figures: Yanagawa Masato, Ryukawa Ranse, Ichijin, and Daigo Ozora.
These can be considered the main forces of Fengxian Main Campus at present.
"Teramon-kun, now is not the time to be preoccupied with girls. The news from the Northeast branch campus is confirmed."
.. ..... ...
Yanagawa Masato reported in a deep voice, his tone revealing his shock: "Kurosaki Ryuji stormed into the Suzuran Southwest Branch School alone, defeated Nakai head-on, shocked everyone present, and escaped unscathed, ultimately leading to the forced alliance of the three major factions in Suzuran Southwest."
"Damn, that kid is ruthless! Arrogant! And strong! He single-handedly turned Linglan Southwest upside down and forced them to band together! If this happened to me, I could brag about it for ten years!"
I grinned, revealing a set of white teeth, my tone filled with excitement and disbelief.
"Indeed, it seems that Takehisa Eijo's defeat was not unjustified; Kurosaki Ryuji is ruthless!"
The fierce-looking Longchuan Lanshi smiled menacingly and nodded in approval.
Upon hearing this, the Buddha at the temple gate finally came to his senses, glanced at the crowd again, but his mind still seemed to be elsewhere, and he mechanically nodded: "Indeed."
Longchuan Lanshi added, "If I had the chance, I'd really like to meet him and have a fight with him."
I immediately rubbed my hands together, eager to get started: "Then should we...?"
Just then, Daigo Ozora's cold, indifferent voice rang out: "Hey, hey, hey, they're about to fight Suzuran, is it appropriate for you to get involved?"
"really!"
"If we hurt someone, they might not be able to fight Linglan anymore."
Longchuan Lanshi nodded again, indicating his agreement.
The classroom fell silent again, with only the sound of the wind blowing through the window.
The Buddha statue at the temple gate gazed out the window again with a melancholy expression, still brooding over how he had scared the girl away earlier that day.
But there is no doubt that this news, like a pebble thrown into a lake, is already creating ripples.
The name Ryuji Kurosaki has already become like a rising star, leaving a deep mark on his heart.
The undercurrents in Toaru City became even more turbulent because of Ryuji Kurosaki's actions.
The powerful figures in every corner felt the approaching storm, some were ambitious, some were on high alert, and some were filled with longing.
Chapter 132 The Guy Who Came to Provoke Us
At this moment, the air at the entrance of Hetian No. 2 High School felt like solidified lead, pressing heavily on everyone's chest.
The afterglow of the setting sun cast long shadows, but could not dispel the suffocating stillness that seemed like the prelude to a storm.
Amidst this oppressive atmosphere, a group of figures stumbled and fell into view at the edge of the horizon.
They supported each other, their steps faltering, each step like a struggle in the mud.
They are delinquents from Kawada No. 2 High School.
But at this moment, they can only be described as "a defeated and remnant army".
Everyone's face was covered in bruises and swelling, and their once clean uniforms were now stained with dust and dried, blackened blood.
His eyes were vacant, a mixture of humiliation, excruciating pain, and a bewildered look, as if he had just crawled back from the brink of hell and was still not fully recovered.
They were the same group of Kawata delinquents who had just been utterly crushed by Kurosaki Ryuji and Serizawa Tamao under the overpass.
The group's disheveled appearance instantly attracted the attention of several people who were smoking at the gate.
One of the men, with a sinister look in his eyes, was none other than Amano, whom he had encountered at the bar last time with Ueda Sashio, Kurosaki Ryuji, and the others.
He was smoking a cigarette and bragging to his companions when he saw the group's appearance, and his face instantly darkened.
"Hey! What's going on?"
Amano spat out the cigarette butt from his mouth, sparks flying across the concrete floor.
He strode forward and grabbed the collar of the groaning leader: "Who did this? How come they're all beaten to a pulp?!"
The unfortunate fellow, his face contorted with grief, cried out in a voice filled with fear and grievance, "Amano-nii... it's Housen! And Suzuran!"
