I teach kendo in Tokyo

Although Fuzhi Technology was caught off guard, the Tokyo Queen did not fall into a state of disorderly panic as the former expected. The reason for this is that under the leadership of Honami, the Nanjo family adopted quick and decisive control.

On the one hand, security SPs were dispatched to suppress the riot, and on the other hand, an announcement was made on the ship, claiming that thugs disguised themselves as passengers and sneaked into the cruise ship with the intention of plundering. However, the attack was stopped at the early stage, so there was no need to worry too much.

While calming the emotions of the passengers, Honami also announced that the ship's security force was fully searching for a few fleeing thugs. In order to avoid causing misplaced orders, passengers on the ship were asked not to go out while in the cabin until the situation subsided - this is a mandatory order, but At this moment, there will be no unthinkable guy looking for trouble.

So under the guidance of the shipping management, more than 2,000 passengers on the cruise ship were temporarily moved to the living area where the first-class cabin was located.

The first-class living area occupies the largest area, and there are many public spaces for passengers to relax and exercise, so there is considerable flexibility in layout.

Although it was inconsistent with the original intention of the design, after gathering the passengers into the residential area, security SPs were arranged to pull up police wires at the entrances and exits of the residential area, thus forming a structure similar to a temporary fortress.

This arrangement allowed the Nanjo family to freely suppress the riots in other locations, and for the passengers who were gathered in residential areas for refuge, the heavily guarded fortress situation also gave them a considerable sense of security.

After all, the Nanjo family is also a well-known industrial giant, and the vast majority of passengers believe that they can solve the trouble.

"Oh, let's just treat it as a sideshow of the trip. Maybe it's a surprise program specially arranged by the Nanjo family?"

Hiroshi Hasegawa, who did not even bother to take refuge in the cabin, scratched his beard and comforted his wife.

"Is it really okay? I seem to have heard gunshots." Hasegawa Mikoto frowned.

"No problem. In fact, it is not uncommon for offshore cabin operators to encounter this kind of thing. As far as the results are concerned, it will probably be fine. Trust me."

For a senior seaman who travels across the oceans all the time, Hiroshi Hasegawa's words are quite convincing.

Even the other old couple who were taking refuge in the same cabin opposite couldn't help but look over after hearing this.

"It would be great if it was really like this... Alas, as we get older, we really can't stand the torment." The old lady with a cane sighed. When she saw Mikoto's face, she suddenly thought of something and asked, "I'm sorry. , Little girl, have we met somewhere before?"

Mikoto was stunned for a moment and looked up at the silver-haired old lady. She tried hard to remember for a moment and then shook her head: "I'm sorry, I can't remember... Actually, I was very confused for a while. Even if I greeted someone, I would immediately forget it. ,I am sorry……"

The old lady covered her mouth with an expression of surprise: "Huh? Are you too? In fact, I have been feeling dazed in the past two or three years. I seem to forget a lot of things if I don't pay attention... Alas, I don't know if it is because I am getting old. Because of…”

"Ahaha, you must have seen her at some neighborhood event, right? After all, the scope of activities of a housewife is not very large."

Mikoto comforted the old lady kindly, but at this moment a strange music suddenly came to her ears.

Mikoto looked up in surprise and saw the music coming from the loudspeaker in the cabin. The music was as penetrating as electronic sound, stimulating Mikoto's eardrums and arousing some strange emotions in her heart.

At this time, there was a popping sound from the side.

Mikoto turned around and saw the old lady she was chatting with suddenly passed out and fell to the ground. She was surprised when a strong feeling of sleep suddenly hit her.

Mikoto felt as if her spirit was being pulled tightly by an invisible force, dragging her into an invisible abyss.

That feeling made Mikoto feel lazy. She subconsciously looked at her husband, but was shocked to see the objects around her floating one after another.

Mikoto desperately reached out to grab the person she could rely on, but before she touched Hiroshi's hand, her consciousness suddenly disconnected.

**

The sudden fainting of multiple passengers in the residential area and the accompanying bizarre spiritual phenomena turned the already gradually calm situation into chaos again.

The security SPs guarding the cabin were busy dealing with emergencies, but they did not notice that the overall atmosphere of the cruise ship had quietly changed.

But it’s not their fault. The only ones who can detect the abnormality at this time are the aboriginal people from the mysterious side, or people who have a deep connection with the mysterious side——

When it comes to the connection with the mysterious side, probably no one on the whole ship has a deeper relationship than Kazuma.

As a character who had conquered two Changan areas one after another and owned one Changan dojo, Kazuma understood Aikawa Horon's foreshadowing almost as soon as the music started playing.

"Artificial constant darkness!?"

You actually got it out? Kazuma looked at Aikawa Horon in shock.

The so-called "eternal darkness" is an area ruled by mysterious laws. In the eternal darkness, "science" will be weakened, and the monsters can exert their true power before the mysterious decline.

The Dream Eater Tapir, who longs to restore its past glory, once used the door-opening experiment to promote "artificial constant darkness", that is, using multiple psychic abilities as human pillars to sacrifice, and using a technique similar to artificial kitsch to transform ordinary space into a place of constant darkness.

The Dream-Eating Tapir once used this technology to build a castle in the Nine Ghost Office that was even more impressive than the Great Castle. Therefore, the so-called "artificial constant darkness" should have been a success.

Kazuma originally thought that this forbidden technology would die with the demise of the Dream-Eating Film, but he didn't expect that Aikawa Horutong would actually inherit its results?

This is as crazy as putting a Gatling gun into a murderer's hand!

"In addition to Hasegawa Mikoto, how many other 'human pillars' have you arranged to come on board?"

Kazuma gritted his teeth and stared at Aikawa Horon. The strange commotion when I first met the Hasegawa couple finally has the answer now.

Mikoto Hasegawa is one of the victims of the door-opening experiment.

The Dream-Eating Tapir used the door-opening experiment to sow the seeds of nightmares in the minds of thousands of participants. These seeds usually disturb the minds of the participants, but when triggered by specific conditions, they will suddenly erupt, thus destroying multiple participants. Let’s transform into a adult pillar together! These human pillars will further affect the surrounding space, turning it into a place of constant darkness!

The whole process is interlocking but extremely hidden. Unless you know it in advance and compare the passenger list with the experimental roster, it is impossible to detect anything strange.

Kazuma also had to admire Aikawa Horon's extraordinary obsession and planning. There is a reason why this guy can make Fuzhi Technology so big.

But on the other hand, Horon Aikawa, who was exposed before he even opened his mouth, seemed quite surprised.

"What a terrifying reaction speed... So that's it. I finally know why Shigehiro-kun failed..." Aikawa Horataka looked at Kazuma with interest, and his fearful tone didn't sound like a lie. , "Competing with Kiryu-kun, even if you want to take the lead, it's not easy. But, I won after all this time."

"Really? We still don't know who will win." Kazuma snorted coldly and touched Muramasa.

"No, no, Kiryu-kun, you did lose this time. Although I underestimated you for a long time, you actually made the same mistake."

"You mean, I also underestimated you?" Kazuma frowned, and he was quite bothered by the feeling of being led by Aikawa Horon.

"Kiryu-kun, you are very strong. If she can't do anything to you, in fact I have nothing to do with you... But this has nothing to do with this, because we don't need to fight you anymore, right?" Aikawa Faron tilted his head to confirm Murasaki Shikibu.

"...That's right." Murasaki Shikibu responded with a slight nod. At this time, all the cuts on her wrists had been healed. Not only that, the manic aura like a ferocious beast had also dissipated.

The "qi" surrounding her became incredibly stable, and it even gave the illusion that she was being guarded by the surrounding space.

Unfortunately, this is not an illusion.

"The Lord of Eternal Anguish..." Kazuma stared at Murasaki Shikibu, almost gritting his teeth and burst out these four words.

The Chang'an Land is a space governed by mysterious laws, and based on Hema's previous experience in the Chang'an Land, there will be a dominant monster in every Chang'an Land.

Known as the "Lords of Chang'an", they hold the authority of Chang'an and can shape the shape of Chang'an as they wish.

Just like the Chang'an Lake of the Catfish Spirit, and the Chang'an Castle of the Dream-eating Tapir, they are both incredible things created using mysterious laws.

At this moment, the entire cruise ship turned into a dark place due to the disturbance of human pillars, and Murasaki Shikibu was recognized as the Lord of Everlasting Darkness.

It felt like two boxers were fighting in the ring and were knocked down unexpectedly by a foul move by their opponent. Then suddenly, they discovered that everyone from the referee to the audience to the lighting technician had been bribed by their opponent - ——Kazuma is almost in such a helpless situation.

"Damn..."

Kazuma had to admit that he underestimated Horon Aikawa. The purpose of creating artificial Changan was actually to seize the power of the cruise ship for Murasaki Shikibu, which was beyond his expectation.

Kazuma's hand tightened on the hilt of Muramasa's sword, assessing whether he could take down Murasaki Shikibu if he activated his divine power at this time.

Kamui consumes a lot of energy and makes it difficult to move. If Murasaki Shikibu is not captured, all chances of victory are lost.

Compared to Kazuma who was hesitant, Murasaki Shikibu's aura was rising rapidly.

The surrounding air carried her, and the wind gathering from all directions lifted her into the air. Murasaki Shikibu looked down at Kazuma in mid-air, narrowed his eyes, and made a slight gesture.

"What?"

When Kazuma was surprised, a roar suddenly came from the inside of the corridor.

Kazuma turned his head to look, and then saw a black shadow rushing over like a gust of wind. The moment before the five bright sharp claws tore through the horizon, Kazuma jumped back like a reflex, and at the same time set up Muramasa to block.

The sharp claws pulled out several clusters of sparks on Muramasa's sword and exploded, while the huge force coming from the handle of the sword knocked him away.

**

At the same time, in the cruise command center, a correspondent reported to Nanjo Honami, who was so busy that she borrowed the cat's hand: "Well, a message was forwarded on the shore, and it was for Kiryu Kazuma."

Honami was busy giving instructions. When she heard who the message was for, she stopped and looked at the correspondent in confusion: "What?"

"Signed by Mikako Fujii, may I ask..."

When she heard the message from Mikako, Honami suddenly lost interest. After all, Mikako, she would definitely not have anything serious to do.

But Honami suddenly thought that Mikako is no longer what she used to be. She might be the best friend of the future crown princess, which is different. Maybe with her education and appearance, she will directly enter the Imperial Household Ministry and become a very high-level female officer.

She shouldn't leave anything that might offend her - although with Mikako's heartless character, she probably doesn't know how to write the word "revenge", but what if?

Honami: "Give it to me and I'll convey it."

"yes."

Then Honami took the message and unfolded the content directly so that it could be conveyed verbally through the communication machine later.

However, the content of the message made Honami frown.

The message is this: He Mama, go to Tokyo Bay tonight, next to the fort ruins in Odaiba, and show you something fierce! Must come!

In this era, telegrams were priced per word, especially international telegrams. Each word was so expensive that it could make Kazuma and Chiyoko's hearts slow down.

"What the hell?" Honami was stunned. She couldn't imagine Mikako's intentions at all, but it was okay to not think of the intentions. After all, it was Mikako.

"Forget it, never mind, we are already on the high seas anyway, and Kazuma will definitely not be able to keep the appointment tonight. Whatever." Honami thought of this and threw herself into the command.
