Anime, Girlfriend Shokuhou Misaki.

Generally speaking, he will only provoke people he can afford to offend. In front of people he can't afford to offend, he will be as humble as a dog wagging its tail and begging for mercy.

(Makoto Haramura, Makoto Haramura...)

"That's the name," Akaza thought to himself several times before his eyes lit up.

"I see. It turns out that Mr. Haramura was the person involved at the time."

Akaza's expression, which had looked like he was about to drown, returned to normal. He even had the composure to straighten his collar while bearing the pressure from Makoto Haramura.

"There really wasn't even a greeting."

"As a recently recognized A-rank knight, I think Mr. Haramura probably has no record of having 'seen' Kurogane Ohma in official records before."

Akaza deliberately emphasized the words 'recently' and 'seen'.

Seeing what Haramura Makoto looked like before he was born seemed to boost his confidence even more.

"Since Mr. Haramura did not see Kurogane Ohma, then we cannot conclude that Mr. Haramura's record of seeing Kurogane Ohma at that time is true."

"However, we believe that Mr. Haramura probably thought that the terrorist looked exactly like your school's Kurogane Ikki, which is why he concluded that it was Kurogane Ohma."

"Right now, we just want to take Kurogane Ikki back for the most 'normal' questioning."

"Mr. Haramura, could you please refrain from meddling in other people's business?"

"Your home..."

Makoto Haramura hasn't made any moves yet, but Stella's anger has already flared up.

But at the moment he darted out, Makoto Haramura reached out and grabbed Stella's hand, then squinted at Akaza and laughed.

"I see, that's quite thorough in your preparations."

Although it was only a few short sentences just now.

However, Akaza was absolutely right on the point, her aim being to shut him up.

It's likely that this man named Akaza had already done some research before he came.

He is a being of unknown origin.

Only the recorder at the time, Hei Tieyan, and a few other people knew about this matter. The words he emphasized were meant to tell him this.

If I continue to pursue this matter, the identity he worked so hard to obtain might become problematic.

Of course, you can pursue this further.

Then people will probably ask him what his real identity is, and why he knows the adult Black Iron King, and so on.

"Of course, now that I'm here, I need to make the necessary preparations."

Akaza's face once again revealed a smug expression.

Then he slammed the official document that had brought Ikki Kurogane onto the table and waved his hand dismissively.

"Let's go, take Kurogane Ikki with you."

"Stella—"

Makoto Haramura called out softly.

"understood!"

At the same time as the flames ignited, a scarlet blade of light pierced through space, flashing by like lightning.

"What you said makes a lot of sense, but I am the disciple of the God of War."

"If the chairman of the ethics committee wants to verify this, he can do so at any time. My mentor is in this city right now."

Rain Moon was held against Akaza's neck, the blade pressed tightly against Akaza's skin.

From now on, whether Akaza moves around randomly or Haramura Seiichi accidentally slips his hand, this guy's head will separate from his body.

It can only be said that everything was too coincidental.

Why did he so desperately want to become Nango Hikojiro's apprentice?

Besides the fact that he felt he could learn more knowledge and advanced techniques from Nango Hikojiro, there was also Nango Hikojiro's identity.

In the world of Japanese woodcutters today, no one is more precious than Nango Hikojiro.

Perhaps the former Kurogane Ryoma could be compared to the current Nango Hikojiro.

However, Kurogane Ryuma has been dead for countless years, and among the current Japanese swordsmen, Nango Hikojiro is the most prestigious.

Even if the Nanxiang family didn't wield as much power as the Black Iron family, it would still be the same.

"you……"

Akaza's eyes widened several times over, and cold sweat poured down his face like rain.

As for the documents that Stella burned?

Akaza had absolutely no interest in paying attention to that.

"I know, I know."

"I'm leaving now."

He raised both hands high, and his legs were trembling uncontrollably.

Go to the God of War to verify whether this guy is indeed your disciple.

Of course, this kind of thing needs to be done, but that's a matter for later, okay? Right now, his life is in their hands, so getting out of here and escaping danger is the most important thing, okay?

"boom--"

The Rain Moon in his hand instantly dissipated into magic, and Haramura Makoto stared indifferently at Akaza.

"roll!"

"Yes, yes, I understand."

Chapter 89 Okamoto 1.01

"Thank you!"

The moment Akaza rolled out of the room, Kurogane Shizuku immediately and sincerely thanked Haramura Makoto.

She knew very well that she was absolutely incapable of handling the situation just now, and if it weren't for Makoto Haramura's intervention, her beloved brother might have been crippled.

"That's not a big deal, but things probably won't end so easily."

"There will be more things targeting Ikki next."

"But that's probably not the reason. I've blocked that direction, so the rest is up to Ikki himself."

Based on Shinguji Kurono's description, Haramura Makoto can most likely understand why Kurogane Gen is doing this.

A man who can be so ruthless as to place even his own son under his own rules is absolutely unlikely to give up easily and stop there.

"According to my estimation, he might target Ikki's opponent next."

The path of framing and falsely accusing has been blocked by Makoto Haramura.

Now that he has an extraordinary identity as the disciple of the God of War, Nango Hikojiro, the veracity of his words is undoubtedly very high.

Therefore, he could not possibly use this method to hinder Ikki Kurogane.

"No matter who it is, my brother will not lose."

Kurogane Shizuku's gaze swept lightly over Haramura Makoto and Stella, and she smiled knowingly.

When all other means have been blocked, this is the only legitimate means left.

Therefore, the strongest obstacle that will ultimately stand in front of Ikki Kurogane is bound to be the one that blocks his way.

So, who else in this academy right now can be considered the strongest obstacle?

The fourth place winner of the previous Seven Star Sword Dance Festival, and still the number one ranked student council president in the school, is "Raikiri" Toudou Touka.

And then there are these two in front of us.

"Very good, let him get some rest."

“Tell him that if I were his final opponent, I would be looking forward to it.”

With a sense of nonchalant detachment, Haramura Makoto left after uttering those words.

Stella wanted to stay with Shizuku Kurogane for a while, so she stayed there temporarily.

However, Shinomiya Kurono greeted them, waved, and left with Haramura Makoto.

"Where are you going?"

Leaving the hospital and walking along the path behind it, Shinomiya Kurono quickened her pace to catch up with Haramura Makoto.

"This direction is obviously towards the supermarket."

"At this point, I'm not interested in continuing the competition. If the chairman is interested, I suggest you go tomorrow."

Makoto Haramura raised his eyebrows, walked into the school supermarket, and went straight inside.

"You're coming to the supermarket too?"

Makoto Haramura thought they would break up at the supermarket entrance, but to his surprise, Kurono Shinguji followed them inside.

Faced with Haramura Makoto's questioning, Shinguji Kurono simply reached into her pocket, took out a cigarette case, and flattened it right in front of Haramura Makoto.

"We're out of cigarettes, might as well buy another pack."

There are quite a few students at Po Jun Academy, and since it's not class time right now, many students are buying daily necessities here.

"Finally, it's outrageous that cigarettes are sold in a campus supermarket."

He hadn't really noticed that cigarettes were being sold when he was shopping, but seeing Shinomiya Kuro's gesture of taking a cigarette, his inner吐槽 (tu cao, meaning to make sarcastic or sarcastic remarks) spirit was already activated.

"What's wrong? There are more than just students in the school."

"Many faculty and staff live on campus, and if you try to buy cigarettes while wearing a school uniform, they won't sell them to you."

"Never mind, it's none of my business."

Haramura Makoto pursed his lips in boredom, then casually picked up a cabbage from the shelf next to him and put it in his basket.

"So, what is it that you want to say now?"

"There's not much people around, so I'm not going to linger any longer."

Want to buy a pack of cigarettes?

Makoto Haramura didn't believe Shinguji Kurono's obviously pointless excuse.

"What an unlovable little devil."

Shinomiya Kurono scoffed dismissively, took two steps forward, and came to Haramura Makoto's side.

"Thank you so much for your help today."

“If you hadn’t stepped in, things would have been very complicated, and I would have been very embarrassed.”

In terms of pure strength, Shinomiya Kurono's strength far surpassed that of everyone else in the room at the time.

However, at that time, her position was the principal of Po Jun Academy.

All actions must be conducted within the bounds of the rules; one cannot arbitrarily abuse one's power.

Therefore, when Makoto Haramura used force to drive Akaza away, he managed to save face from what she was about to lose.

"So, you want to retaliate?"

"You're not the kind of person who would come all this way just to express gratitude, are you?"

Makoto Haramura sighed helplessly, and continued pushing the cart toward the meat section.

"Yes."

"It's really frustrating to just keep going according to this guy's ideas."

Shinguji Kuroko's teeth were clenched so hard they made a loud crunching sound.

She was extremely unhappy about what happened today, absolutely unhappy.

She is now the principal of Po Jun Academy. Although she has retired, she still holds a place in the league.

Although her agreement with Ikki Kurogane did not include provisions protecting his personal safety.
