Zongman I fight weirdness in everyday world

L picked up the list and looked at it, discovering that it wasn't just names; Yagami Light had also noted the age, identity, past experiences, and whether they possessed spiritual abilities next to each of these cultists' names. It was essentially a brief profile of each criminal.

“These people…”

Seeing L's brow furrow slightly, a thoughtful expression on his face, Yagami Light suppressed his smile and slowly began to speak.

“It seems you've also noticed the unusual nature of this list.”

“Indeed.”

L murmured softly.

“Osaka City has thirty-two confirmed cultists, the city with the highest number of cultists, which aligns with the fact that Sakuragawa Rikka's main base was in Osaka. However, the second highest is Tokyo, with eighteen confirmed cultists… The key is the identities of these eighteen people… Construction workers, grassroots personnel who regularly inspect the fire department, merchants with fireworks manufacturing permits, night shift nurses at hospitals, unemployed vagrants…”

L squatted on the chair, biting his fingernails, a signature gesture when he was thinking, and muttered to himself.

“Putting aside whether there's any connection between these people's identities, the problem is that, including the serial killer with spiritual abilities you killed last time, these cultists don't have high social status. They can only be considered ordinary people in this society, or even unnoticed members of the lower class.”

“Since that Sakuragawa Rikka could come up with a plan to convert the head priest and monks within Shitennoji Temple, and plant explosives in advance throughout the temple, creating a tragic disaster with numerous casualties in order to create a powerful evil spirit, then since she has set her sights on Tokyo, the most populous, bustling, and closely watched city in Sakura Province, she should use similar methods.”

At this point, L seemed to have thought of something and looked at Yagami Light, asking.

“You said before that Sakuragawa Rikka possessed some kind of ability to foresee future disasters, right?”

“Yes.”

L continued his analysis.

“However, judging from Yozora's description, Sakuragawa Rikka's so-called foresight is also a limited ability. She can only foresee the possibility of a disaster occurring, but not the other possibility of the disaster being prevented. Otherwise, if she could have foreseen that the meteorite would be stopped by 'Kamen,' she should have taken advantage of 'Kamen' being thousands of miles away to launch an attack on Kyoto City.”

“And was that reminder she gave on her deathbed truly out of goodwill? I always feel like something's not right.”

“Would a heartless guy like that have the saying that people are kind when they are about to die? I don't believe it.”

Yagami Light smiled slightly upon hearing this and nodded.

“Yozora and I share your thoughts. That so-called well-intentioned reminder is probably just a smokescreen.”

After saying this, Yagami Light seemed somewhat emotional.

“Until the very last second before her death, she was still using her last words to try to distract us, to make us ignore the bigger conspiracy that certainly exists, although we don't know what it is yet. As expected, Sakuragawa Rikka is a very terrifying enemy.”

“Indeed, some criminals commit those horrific acts out of hatred, jealousy, in short, they have their own reasons.”

L said word by word, as if he had remembered something.

“And some people just want to watch the world burn.”

“Fortunately, Sakuragawa Rikka is already dead.”

“Is it really fortunate?”

L narrowed his eyes slightly, looking at how even after so long, the internet was still endlessly discussing the amazing event of Izanami vs. "Kamen," and even extended to various topics, such as whether so-called gods and psychics really exist in this world, and muttered to himself.

“Her actions before her death have already pushed this world to the brink of collapse, only needing the last straw.”

… …

On the other side, on Nichito Island.

“Hmph, it seems your goals are the same as mine.”

In the darkness of night, accompanied by the sound of waves crashing, Wu Huliang looked at the dozens of fighters in front of him, some familiar, some unfamiliar, with strange appearances, but all exuding a dangerous and bloody aura, and couldn't help but narrow his eyes and snorted coldly.

“You dare to compete with our Wu clan for this commission, you have a lot of nerve.”

Wu Huliang's threatening words did not make the dozens of fighters in front of him flinch. Instead, some with more arrogant personalities directly retorted without politeness.

“You're just a useless old thing, putting on airs here? Do you think we haven't heard? Wu Lei'an, the strongest genius of the younger generation of your Wu clan, was killed by a newbie who participated in a fighting competition for the first time in an ordinary fighting competition. You still have the face to act old here? Huh?”

Hearing this, Wu Huliang's face instantly turned ugly.

Just as the other party said, since the fighting competition in Kyoto nearly a year ago, the reputation of the Wu clan has declined seriously. Others wouldn't think that someone who participated in a fighting competition for the first time and could be hired by a small charity like Yukinoshita Construction would be a very strong fighter. They would only think that the Wu clan's reputation was not deserved.

With this kind of thinking, naturally no one would hire people from their Wu clan as fighters anymore.

If it was just like this, then so be it. At worst, they would give up earning rewards by participating in competitions and continue to return to their original business, accepting assassination commissions.

However, this path was also blocked with the appearance of "Kira."

Although Wu Huliang was very confident in his strength, he was not so confident that he thought he could compete with the legendary "Kira."

The client of the assassination is an evil person who needs to be sanctioned. I am afraid that the executor is also the same treatment in the eyes of "Kira".

The key is that Wu Huliang is really afraid that if his clan members are exposed and attract the attention of "Kira", bringing a devastating disaster to the entire family, what should he do?

But besides accepting assassinations and fighting competitions, as the patriarch, he really couldn't think of any other way to allow the family to continue to survive.

Be a bodyguard?

Everyone in the Wu clan has received assassination training since childhood. Not to mention the family's secret technique, Liberation, which will more or less affect the brain. Who would hire a bodyguard who is better at killing and easily gets carried away than protecting the employer?

This is also why Wu Huliang was forced to appear here, even knowing that participating in the internal strife of a behemoth like the Shinomia Group might cause the Wu clan to be deeply involved in the vortex.

Of course, he still had basic rationality and didn't think about kidnapping Kaguya Shinomiya, the eldest daughter of the Shinomia family. His target was just Ai Hayasaka.

“It seems that we still have to fight to the death…”

Just as Wu Huliang thought of this, thinking about whether he could defeat the dozens of fighters in front of him with only the few clan members he brought, plus himself who was old and no longer at his peak, he suddenly heard a slight footstep behind him.

Everyone present was a fighter, and their hearing was naturally much more sensitive than ordinary people. They all looked towards the darkness behind them.

“Grandpa Zeng”

Hearing this familiar voice, Wu Huliang was slightly stunned at first when he saw Karura, who was jumping and running out, and then his face changed.

“Garou, why did you run away from home? Shouldn't you be on summer vacation right now? What are you doing here?”

“Grandpa Zeng, you really are getting old.”

Garou wore a charming and mischievous look, approaching him with a playful smile.

“You took away all the ones with a bit of strength, so who in the family can stop me? Can't I leave whenever I want?”

Wu Huiliyang thought that was true.

Putting aside whether others dared to stop Garou, among the younger generation, there was no one who could beat his great-granddaughter.

“Don't mess around here, stay away for now, I'll talk to you later!”

Judging from the fact that Garou was still in high school, Wu Huiliyang didn't intend to train her into an assassin or a combatant, he just wanted his beloved great-granddaughter to grow up as an ordinary girl.

Unfortunately, things didn't go as planned. Garou's talent was too high. As the patriarch, Wu Huiliyang couldn't just ignore Garou's own wishes and force her to give up this once-in-a-century talent to become some ordinary girl.

However, within limits, Wu Huiliyang still tried his best not to involve his beloved great-granddaughter in any dangerous matters.

Seeing Garou appear here at this time, Wu Huiliyang's anxiety and concern were evident.

“Grandpa Zeng, please give up this commission!”

Hearing Garou's words, Wu Huiliyang was first stunned, then frowned slightly.

“Don't mess around here, leave first…”

“I won't leave if you don't agree!”

Garou didn't care about that, she ran forward, grabbed Wu Huiliyang's sleeve, with an expression like a little girl's coquetry.

Wu Huiliyang's face showed hesitation and entanglement. He first looked at the family members standing in front of him, then turned around and glanced at the group of combatants who were eyeing them covetously, and finally could only sigh helplessly.

“Okay… I'll give up this commission.”

It wasn't just because of Garou's coquetry, but also because Wu Huiliyang realized that even if he could defeat this group of combatants, the family members he brought would inevitably suffer casualties, not to mention that the hope of winning was very slim.

Moreover, after capturing that Hayasaka Ai, they would have to take a boat from Nito Island and return all the way to the Sakura Province mainland before they could complete the commission by sending her to the designated location.

This was simply impossible to succeed.

“That's great!”

Hearing that Grandpa Zeng agreed to give up this commission, Garou was overjoyed.

Just as Wu Huiliyang was a little puzzled, wondering why his great-granddaughter was so happy, he saw a figure slowly walking out of the darkness again.

His face instantly changed.

The other party had approached so close, but he hadn't noticed it at all?

What level of expert was this?

Could it be that the Fang of Metsudo of this generation had been dispatched?

But when Wu Huiliyang saw the face of the person who came, his expression couldn't help but change.

“It's actually you…”

“Say less.”

Ye Xing waved his hand, interrupting Wu Huiliyang's words, and glanced at Garou standing beside him.

“Your Wu family's luck is really good. If it weren't for her showing goodwill in advance, you would have all died today.”

Hearing this, before Wu Huiliyang could speak, he saw Ye Xing's figure disappear from the spot. The next second, a muffled hitting sound came from behind him.

Wu Huiliyang turned around and saw that Ye Xing was grabbing a combatant's neck with one hand, and the other hand had already pierced into the other party's chest. Then, he casually threw the combatant's body onto the nearby beach like garbage.

“The first one.”

Almost at the instant the last word was spoken, Ye Xing had already appeared in front of another combatant.

The other party's reaction speed was also very fast, and he immediately threw a punch towards his face.

“Crack!”

Along with the sound of bones breaking, the combatant covered his already twisted and deformed arm, and before he could even let out a scream, he was directly blown apart by Ye Xing's simple and unadorned straight punch.

“The second one.”

Looking at the scene in front of them, the Wu family members were all dumbfounded, especially Garou.

Only at this moment did she finally understand that when she fought Ye Xing during the day, how could the other party just be holding back?

This was already letting the ocean go!

Chapter 349 Compensation Provided by the Wu Family, Kawasaki Saki's Awakening

“So strong…”

Garou looked at Ye Xing, who had killed dozens of combatants in just a few dozen seconds, his body stained with blood and pieces of corpses, and even his handsome face seemed a bit inexplicably terrifying, but her eyes revealed a look of excitement.

“I must have a child with him!”

Hearing these words, Wu Huiliyang clenched the crutch in his hand, but when he saw Ye Xing standing on that blood-red beach, like a demon from hell, he sighed helplessly.

Logically speaking, he would definitely be furious when he heard his beloved great-granddaughter say that she wanted to have a child with a man, and might even have already had murderous intentions.

But the current situation is…

Let alone himself and a few family members, even if the entire Wu family went together, they couldn't beat this killing god in front of them, right?

Was this still a person?

Fighting dozens of combatants alone… no, using the word "fighting" is an exaggeration. He single-handedly killed dozens of combatants in seconds, without even being injured. Even that combatant who is currently the most feared in Sakura Province, the current Fang of Metsudo, would definitely not be able to do such a thing.

Was Ye Xing's strength originally so exaggerated, or has he made such unbelievable progress in less than a year since the last time they met?

Is this really something humans can do?

“Step… step… step…”

After the scene gradually quieted down and became silent, watching Ye Xing, who was covered in blood, walk towards him step by step, Wu Huiliyang's hairs stood on end, and a sense of extreme danger, stemming from the combatant's instinct, brought about intense fear.

The intensity of this fear even made him almost subconsciously use his family's secret technique, Release.

It was like a hedgehog in the wild, when faced with a predator, would curl up into a ball out of instinct, using the spikes on its shell to resist the enemy.

Now, Wu Huiliyang felt like he was a hedgehog at the mercy of others.

“Wu Huiliyang.”

Hearing Ye Xing softly say his name, Wu Huiliyang's back instantly broke out in a cold sweat, and he quickly responded.

“That… our Wu family has decided to give up the commission and will leave immediately…”

In his long life, Wu Huiliyang had not never met enemies stronger than himself, but he had never felt like he did now, where the other party was just standing in front of him, and it made him frightened, and he couldn't even muster the slightest fighting spirit.

As a powerful combatant, and the keen sixth sense for danger that had been passed down for thousands of years in the Wu family's bloodline, Wu Huiliyang could vaguely feel that there seemed to be something… even more terrifying hidden in Ye Xing's body standing in front of him.
