A foreigner's journey

"To put it bluntly, your Fubuki team lacks an S-level [ace]. Your greatest strength has always been yourself, so now that you see me as a 'potential stock' who has S-level strength but has not yet joined any faction, you just go ahead and start playing. I want to take a gamble. Am I understanding correctly?"

Heather picked up the napkin and wiped the corners of her mouth:

"I want to imitate the 'Atomic Samurai Master and Apprentice Team', the 'Vest Corps' and the 'Metal Knight Mobile Unit', and have the Fubuki Team also have S-class personnel. Looking at it this way, the bargaining chip you are giving is not very generous, Ms. Fubuki."

"Well……"

Fubuki bit her lip. She knew that the conditions she had offered before were more than enough to hire a B-level or even A-level hero, but... S-level? To put it bluntly, those powerful forces can offer more favorable conditions at any time, and it is entirely possible for a large number of more beautiful women to recommend themselves to become Heather's women.

[You are currently only a B-class 2nd, and at most you have the potential to become an S-class] It is even more impossible for Fubuki to say such words.

According to Fubuki's analysis from the beginning of the war until now, Heather is the kind of egotistical type who doesn't take soft and hard advice. Once he said it, it meant that the talks were completely broken. It was hard to say whether he and Shan Yuanshi could walk out of this dojo alive.

Eyelashes and Yamazaru stood aside in silence. They did not kneel on the ground and loudly beg Heather to agree to Miss Fubuki's invitation, because they knew that a strong person like Heather would not accept the 'sympathy kidnapping' method at all, but would instead make the other party I hate Fubuki Team even more.

For a moment, the small gymnasium hall filled with the aroma of food fell into an awkward silence.

Qishi was still afraid that Heather would overact and scare away the financial backer and the leader of the younger brothers, so she took the initiative to break the deadlock.

She pretended to be curious and asked: "Your sister, Shivering Tatsumaki, is currently the second in the S class. Why don't you go find her?"

"Sister, she... thinks that I am self-destructive in forming the Fubuki Team to recruit B-level heroes. She hates the Fubuki Team and doesn't like weak people."

Fubuki clenched her hands tightly, her knuckles turning white:

"I know that I don't have the talent to surpass my sister, so when I became the first B-class, I wanted to stay in this position and command all the heroes below B-class to surpass my sister who is a lone activist. In order to fight against my sister, I How can the existing Fubuki Team find my sister as a backer?"

"Hoo—are you so optimistic that I can surpass your sister?"

Heather looked happy, it seemed like someone could discover my excellence! An outstanding man like me is like a firefly in the night sky. No matter how you hide it, you cannot ignore my brilliance...

Fubuki was stunned for a moment, and explained with some stuttering: "Uh, almost. I hope to form an alliance with you, and use a powerful hero like you as a banner to recruit more powerful A-level or even S-level heroes to join our team. Within the alliance.”

After talking for a long time, you still feel that my strength is not as good as your sister? Heather's face fell and she curled her lips: "Okay, then I will verbally agree to this temporary covenant for the time being."

"Huh? Really, really?" Fubuki was surprised and happy. She thought that the negotiation was about to collapse, but she didn't expect that the negotiation turned out to be successful after a twist of twists and turns?

Eyelashes and Yamazaru looked at each other with surprise on their faces. Does Fubuki's team have an S-level expert as their trump card?

Heather shook her finger: "Tsk, tsk, tsk... don't rush, don't rush, we must first establish our respective positions in the alliance. I am the leader and the absolute ace of this alliance. There is no objection to this, right?"

Fubuki nodded heavily without hesitation: "Of course there is no problem. The strong are respected and we are the ones asking you to join the alliance, so naturally you will be the leader."

As she said that, her face suddenly turned pale, and she said with some difficulty: "Are you dissatisfied with the name of the organization [Fubuki Group]? If it is your forced request, I can... I can change the Fubuki Group to the Heather Group .”

"Miss Fubuki!" Eyelashes and Yamazaru were shocked. What an grievance this was for Miss Fubuki! The Fubuki Team is the largest organization under the Heroes Association that Ms. Fubuki has slowly established alone! Are you giving it up to Heather?

Heather looked disgusted: "Forget about the Heather group, it's too unpleasant, and I'm not interested in taking away the little girl's favorite toy. If you continue to keep the name of the Fubuki group, it's a preferential treatment I'm giving you."

Before Fubuki could burst into tears, Heather raised three fingers and said slowly:

"Let me set up three small goals for you first. First, in the hero popularity voting event next Thursday, I want to see my name promoted to the top five in the British Association. Second, collect at least 5 for me within three days. Specific information on 1 S-class bounty criminal and 15 A-class bounty criminals. Third, spread the name of Shingen-ryu as soon as possible."

Fubuki thought about it carefully, and found that except for the first target which was a bit difficult, the other two were not too difficult, so she nodded:

"Don't worry, when I get back, I will mobilize the Fubuki Team and the fans of the Fubuki Team members to canvass votes for you."

As she spoke, she asked curiously: "Can I ask, what type of style is your 'Shingen-ryu'? Is it swordsmanship like Atomic Samurai? Or is it the flowing water rock breaking fist like Silver Fangs?"

Hearing Fubuki's question, Heather rubbed her chin and raised her eyebrows, organized her words a little and concluded:

"Well, if you really want to talk about it, it should be regarded as a cultivation school that 'allows human beings to transcend their own limits and enter a new superhuman realm'."

Going beyond one's own limits and entering a new superhuman realm... It's really hard to understand when you say that. Not only the mountain monkey and the eyelashes, but also Fubuki felt confused.

"Tsk, it seems it's hard to make you understand with words... Come here."

Heather stood up, hooked her fingers at the three of them, and strode towards the courtyard outside the gym building.

Fubuki and the other three followed step by step, leaving Nanami to start clearing the dining table.

When they came to the yard, Heather felt that Fubuki's limousine was in the way, so she hooked up with one foot, and the limousine weighing more than 1.7 tons was kicked into the sky as lightly as a small rubber ball.

Fubuki covered her mouth: "Ah! I spent 5 million to buy it..."

The exclamations stopped suddenly because she saw that the car fell at an extremely unreasonable speed, and the noise it made when it landed in the open space outside the courtyard was not as loud as a thrown brick.

"Idiot, this is the most basic skill. Any martial artist with higher strength can do it."

Heather glanced at the three people who exclaimed that they were eye-opening, and raised her index finger:

"Allowing human beings to acquire martial arts that transcend physical limits. This is one of the basic practices of Shingen-ryu. I call it [Six Styles]. This is [Finger Spear]. You should have experienced it before."

Seeing that finger, Shan Yuan and Li Shi unconsciously covered their injured chest and shoulders. When they were attacked, they only felt as if they had been hit by a powerful firearm bullet. Can human fingers actually reach this point?

Then, Heather raised her index finger and flicked it.

Bo! A hole as thick as the mouth of a bowl appeared in the courtyard wall not far in front of him.

Fubuki's eyes widened, what is this? Psychodynamic power? No, there is no trace of telekinesis! Is it just a matter of martial arts skills?

Eyelashes even trotted over to check the courtyard wall and found that the edges of the cavity were smooth and there were no unnecessary cracks spreading outward. How clever!

"The applied skill of [Finger Gun] is [Flying Finger Gun]. As long as you practice it successfully, you will never need to carry a firearm, because your hands are the most powerful weapons."

Heather shook her finger:

"So I said from the beginning, I only need one finger to deal with guys of your level."

Mountain Monkey and Eyelash swallowed, and now they realized that Heather was really merciful to them. If they really had to fight with this kind of power, the two of them would have turned into sieves as soon as the battle started.

Fubuki hurriedly asked: "Then the moves you used to kill the ghost-level monster Deep Sea King from a distance and break through the 'Hell Arashi' are also among the six moves?"

"Oh, that's [Five-Guan Leech], which corresponds to five types of 'environments' and is another basic system move."

In fact, the Five-Guan Leech is Tom Riddle's telekinesis ability, but Heather has unceremoniously transferred the overseas copyright of this technique to her own name.

Eyelashes suddenly said loudly: "Master Heather! Can we, can we worship your 'Heart Origin Stream'?"

The mountain ape also looked at Heather expectantly.

They have been worrying that they do not have enough strength to protect Miss Fubuki. If they can have strength like Heather, they will not need to retreat even if they encounter ghost-level monsters.

But Heather shook her head ruthlessly: "If you want to practice Heart Origin Stream, you need to meet at least one of two conditions. Unfortunately, you two did not meet the standard."

It's not that Heather is trying to avoid it. The "Shingenryu" he founded in this world is actually a blend of the power systems of the One Piece world and the Hunter world.

If you want to get started with Shingen Ryu, you must either pass the physical test and practice Haki and Six Styles, or pass the aptitude test and forcefully open your mind to practice Nen. Eyelashes and Yamazaru did not meet the standards in either case.

"But..."

As soon as they heard 'but', Shan Yue and Yan Yan, who were originally dejected, immediately cheered up.

"If you can train your body to a qualified standard within a month, I can teach you some basic skills so that you can at least reach the A-level level."

When Shan Yuan and Yan Yan heard this, they immediately became high-spirited and wanted to run back to the headquarters on foot to start practicing hard. The tea brought by Qishi at the right time cooled down their enthusiasm a little.

"Tea, please."

"Uh, thank you very much."

On the other side, Fubuki and Heather reconfirmed the tasks that Fubuki's team needed to complete, exchanged mobile phone numbers, and then set off immediately and resolutely.

"Lash, Mountain Monkey, let's go!"

After all this time, she finally saw the precious opportunity to talk to her sister Tatsumaki on an equal footing, and she would never let it slip away from her hands.

No matter what method she uses, she must keep this powerful man by her side.

Listening to the sound of cars starting up outside the hospital and then gradually disappearing, Heather and Qi Shi looked at each other and breathed a sigh of relief: "The show almost collapsed, but luckily you came to the rescue in time."

"Indeed, you almost died talking."

Qishi nodded seriously:

"No wonder, you are only good at hooking up with 2.5-year-old innocent girls who have no experience in the world."

"Hey! Don't bring all the topics to 2.5!"

"But when you first met me, you used 2.5 to describe Miss Tifa, Miss Alice and Miss Gaia. If we have the opportunity to meet in the future, I need to describe what you have done to them."

"...It's my fault, could you please change the subject?"

Heather took the initiative to beg for mercy, but she always felt that Qi Shi was a bad learner. She really missed the days when Qi Shi could only sulk when she couldn't talk.

Fortunately, Qi Shi just liked to poke Heather a little. She wiped the dining table with a rag and asked, "Have you thought about how to quickly upgrade to S level?"

"Of course. Targeting ordinary weirdos will never make the rotten top brass of the Hero Association notice my existence. A strong medicine is needed."

Heather laughed:

“As it happens, I knew what was about to happen.

Facing a [god-level disaster] that will lead to the destruction of all mankind, the world needs stronger heroes! Before that..."

He picked up the tea cup and took a sip of the steaming tea, and said leisurely:

"Just let me make a little bit of a name for myself."

……………………

"Hey, did you hear that?"

"What did you hear? Wait, who are you? Why did you suddenly come to talk to me?"

"It is said that there is a super powerful new professional hero recently!"

"Oh, is he an S-class devil cyborg?"

"No! He is a guy who is more powerful than the Devil's Cyborg! He has already captured 3 S-class bounty criminals and 11 A-class bounty criminals."

"...Aren't professional heroes supposed to deal with weirdos? What's the point of specifically catching bounty criminals?"

"Stupid! Think about it, it's so easy to deal with S-class bounty criminals, but it's not easy to deal with weirdos? And he has killed more than one ghost-level weirdo who can't even compete with S-class."

"Huh? So fierce? What's your name?"

"That person's name is Heather, and his hero codename is 'Yuhu'. He is temporarily ranked second in B-level. But I believe that this hero will soon be promoted to S-level!"

The speaker was wearing a hood and was sneaking around, and he could vaguely see his lower eyelashes being very long.

That's right, he is the eyelashes of the Fubuki Team!

On the streets, from time to time, people from the snow blowing group pretend to be passers-by and spread the legend about the 'Rain Tiger' to the public.

In addition, [Hell Fubuki], who is frequently exposed in the media and is very popular among the people, also mentioned Heather's name many times during interviews with on-site reporters.

"...The hero I'm paying attention to? Of course it's 'Yu Hu'! That man is definitely not just a second-ranked B-ranker. I think he has already surpassed me, a first-ranked B-ranker, or even an A-ranker. In fact, I still can't I don’t understand why the Hero Association only rated Yu Hu as the second B-level one. Sorry, I’m not accusing the Hero Association Rating Committee of negligence, I’m just simply confused.”

As the topic unfolded, more and more people began to pay attention to ‘Yuhu’.

Immediately afterwards, a large number of scenes of Yuhu fighting against wanted criminals with high bounties began to appear on the Internet. His crisp movements and unrestrained appearance quickly attracted a large number of fans. At the same time, more and more complaint calls are coming into the Hero Association headquarters, asking why such a powerful hero is only ranked second in B level.

The last straw that broke the camel's back was a video of Heather's battle with the Deep Sea King that was inexplicably posted on the Internet.

The video goes from Deep Sea King violently tormenting many heroes and easily defeating the sexy prisoner of the S-class hero, to Heather's appearance and easily crushing Deep Sea King. The entire video is a bit blurry, but the identity of the character in the video can be clearly determined.

The video caused an uproar as soon as it appeared.

No matter how stupid you are, you can see that Heather's strength has completely surpassed that of Deep Sea King and the S-class hero sexy prisoner who was brutalized by Deep Sea King. You actually open your eyes and tell lies about such a strong man and rank him as B-class 2?

If the first ranking was due to insufficient understanding of Heather's strength, then why was the second ranking so low?

For a time, claims about corruption within the Hero Association and the inaction of cadres flooded the Internet and newspapers. Coupled with the testimony of citizens who were in the J City evacuation dome that day, public opinion put increasing pressure on the Heroes Association.

Three hours before the popularity voting event on the Hero Association's official website began, an emergency meeting of Hero Association cadres was held at the headquarters.

There is only one content of the meeting, and that is [reassessing the hero ranking of ‘Rain Tiger’ Heather].
