Zongman I fight weirdness in everyday world

“The things they could do – Misa Amane, Kiyomi Takada, and those who were loyal to me before – I can use the soul manifestation abilities of every single one of them! And… I can use them even better than they could! What they could do, the abilities they could wield, I can accomplish alone! A perfect new world… only needs me!!!”

“You… especially you, as someone with talent on par with mine, you must understand this feeling of mine, right!? We clearly don't need anyone, so why… why… why is it that I, who abandoned everything, made the resolve, and completed the rebirth process from ‘Fool’ to ‘Joker,’ am inferior to you, a wishy-washy guy who can't even abandon the useless people around you!!!”

“Unfettered” aptitude?

Hearing this somewhat unfamiliar yet familiar term, both Light Yagami and L couldn't help but frown.

They remembered that Nightstar had this title in his long self-introduction.

The chosen protagonist with the "unfettered" aptitude.

Light Yagami and L originally thought that Nightstar was just having a fit of adolescent delusions, using high-level words to show off, and that it was just a meaningless phrase.

They never expected to hear the word "unfettered" again from the Light Yagami of another world.

Does this mean…

…that he possesses abilities similar to Nightstar?

“Your appearance of incompetent rage is truly ugly.”

Looking at Light Yagami's completely distorted expression, Nightstar simply shook his head and said with a light smile.

“Oh, and one more thing, the end of the ‘Fool’s’ journey should be the ‘World,’ not some ‘Joker.’”

Speaking of which, Nightstar paused slightly, observing Light Yagami's expression.

“However, judging by your reaction, you should already know this. After all, tarot cards aren't exactly top-secret information. You could find out by asking any fortune teller on the street. In fact, deep down… you also know that becoming a ‘Joker’ means your rebirth journey has failed. You just don't want to admit it.”

“Shut up, shut up, shut up!!!”

Light Yagami roared hoarsely, clenching his hands tightly, his nails piercing his palms, and two lines of blood tears flowed from his scarlet eyes.

“As long as I win… I am right, no one can question me!!! No one can question ‘Kira’!!!”

“Come forth, Takemikazuchi!”

Seeing the other world's self, already dressed as “Kira,” covered in dark armor, with only scarlet light emanating from his eyes, summoning Takemikazuchi, Light Yagami standing next to Nightstar also immediately said in a low voice without hesitation.

“Come forth, Robin Hood!”

“Is this your soul manifestation ability…”

Kira looked at Robin Hood, summoned by Light Yagami, holding a sharp arrow, his voice filled with disdain and contempt.

“Then let me show you the insurmountable gap between the two of us…”

“Go, Takemikazuchi.”

Watching Takemikazuchi draw his bow and gather lightning into an arrow, preparing to attack, Light Yagami took a deep breath, and a white, gorgeous military uniform appeared on his body, and his face was also covered with a crimson tengu mask, but this time, the color of his eyes did not change, still maintaining their original brown.

“After seeing you, I am very clear in my heart that the path I chose back then… was such a correct path.”

As Light Yagami raised his hand, Robin Hood also raised the sharp arrow in his hand high and threw it with all his strength towards Takemikazuchi.

“This is… my justice!”

The arrow thrown by Robin Hood collided with Takemikazuchi's lightning in the air, and a dazzling light burst out in the cave for a moment.

Kira subconsciously raised his hand to shield his eyes, and when he heard a soft sound from the ground, he noticed that a grenade that had already been pulled open had appeared at his feet at some point.

“This is…”

“Boom!!!”

The fragments from the grenade explosion hit Kira's black armor, and although they didn't penetrate it, they left dozens of white scratches.

“Hmm? It can actually damage my outer shell…”

Feeling the explosive force containing spiritual power, different from ordinary grenades, which made Takemikazuchi's phantom even dimmer, Kira immediately made a judgment in his mind.

“The combination of spiritual power and modern weapons… it seems you guys aren't as…”, I thought.

At this moment, Kira noticed that a jet-black crow had appeared in the open space not far away, making an ominous cry.

The next second, the crow disappeared instantly, replaced by Light Yagami holding the Kusanagi Sword.

Kira did not hesitate at all and directly whispered.

“Fusion, Minamoto no Yoritomo.”

As a long katana appeared in his hand, ready to block the sword swung by Light Yagami, he heard the sound of air being torn from behind.

The black blade of Onimaru Kunitsuna drew a beautiful yet deadly arc, directly slashing at Kira's neck.

“Crack…”

The blade of Onimaru Kunitsuna directly broke through the armor formed by Kira's spiritual power and directly sank into the flesh and blood of Kira's neck, and only stopped when it hit the bone, accompanied by a teeth-aching rubbing sound.

“You… cough cough cough…”

Kira quickly retreated a distance, and although he raised his hand to cover his neck, blood kept overflowing from his fingers when he tried to speak, and even his mouth was filled with blood, and he couldn't even speak clearly.

“You didn’t cut off your head directly… what a pity.”

Nightstar casually waved the Onimaru Kunitsuna in his hand, shaking the blood stained on it onto the ground, and said with a light smile.

“But next time, I won’t miss.”

“Cough cough cough… you guys are thinking… too simply…”

As Kira said this, the several red blood vessels originally connected to the golden Holy Grail suddenly broke, and then, like the tentacles of some kind of creature, quickly connected to his back.

With the beating of the red blood vessels, the extremely deep cut on his neck quickly recovered as before in less than a breath.

“You are too naive.”

Kira looked at Light Yagami and Nightstar in front of him, pointed to the prisons on the surrounding walls that imprisoned human-shaped phantoms, then opened his arms and said in a frantic tone.

“I am the one who created the Holy Grail, now… the power of faith of all mankind belongs to me alone, behind me is this entire world!!!”

“And you…”

Kira looked at Yae, who was standing there: "You didn't put on your usual battle gear... Let me guess, you're the one who created the two world passages... Only you could do something like that. Which means, you can't use your Soul Manifestation ability right now. In my world, your spiritual power can't be replenished. Even you, in this state, are just an ordinary person that I can easily eliminate."

"Oh? Is that so?"

Yae took out the black nail gun specially made by Master Miyamoto from her chest, held the Onimaru Kunitsuna in her right hand, and said with a smile.

"The Soul Manifestation ability is just one of many options for me, because..."

"I'm not just a psychic, but the strongest exorcist in history."

"Tsuki, sever those red blood vessels."

Hearing Yae's words, Yatsugami Tsuki obviously understood that Kira's recovery ability came from those red blood vessels connected to his body. Without the slightest hesitation, she simply chanted:

"Domain Expansion..."

"Karasu Tengu."

With a burst of crow cries, Yatsugami Tsuki appeared behind Kira, the Ama-no-Murakumo-no-Tsurugi in her hand bursting with intense spiritual power.

"Yamata no Orochi!"

Eight snakes formed from spiritual power instantly shot out from the blade of the Ama-no-Murakumo-no-Tsurugi, their mouths opening to an almost exaggerated extent, directly biting the blood vessels connecting to Kira.

The next second, Yae also flashed in front of those blood vessels. While unhesitatingly slashing down with the Onimaru Kunitsuna in her hand, her left hand was not idle either, pulling the trigger of the nail gun at Yatsugami Tsuki, who was standing there, seemingly still unable to react.

"Bang!"

"Clang!"

The sound of the nail gun bullet hitting Kira's armor and the muffled sound of the Onimaru Kunitsuna slashing on the red blood vessels rang out almost at the same time.

Yatsugami Tsuki looked down and couldn't help but shrink her pupils in shock.

With Yae's terrifying power far surpassing ordinary people, coupled with the spiritually powerful famous sword Onimaru Kunitsuna, the result was...

It couldn't even leave a white mark on those red blood vessels?

"Do you realize your ignorance now?"

Kira slowly turned around, the red-glowing eye areas of his mask were just like a miniature version of the Red Moon of the Reverse Side.

"This is the thing that gathers the faith, desires, and yearnings of people all over the world. You two want to break the power gathered by all of humanity? It's so foolish that I want to laugh. What a pity, what a pity. If it were the 'Mask' in its prime, there might still be a tiny,渺茫 chance..."

"Yae..."

Yatsugami Tsuki and Yae retreated a distance, returning to L's side, and said in a low voice with a solemn expression.

"This guy probably isn't bragging... My Soul Manifestation ability isn't the kind with particularly great power... It's not enough to sever those red blood vessels. As expected... I still have to let you eat me..."

"Hey, you."

Before Yatsugami Tsuki could finish speaking, Yae looked at Kira standing there, dropped the nail gun in her hand, and instead took out a black pistol from her chest.

"Do you know? I signed a contract with everyone who came to this world with me... oh, except for these two. If they encounter an unsolvable crisis, I can directly teleport to their side through the power of the contract."

"So what?"

Hearing Yae's words, Kira just shook his head contemptuously.

"That's why I think you don't deserve the power you have. You actually worry about the lives of those tools. It really makes me..."

"You still don't understand."

In the unbelievable gazes of L and Yatsugami Tsuki, Yae slowly raised the black pistol, but the muzzle was not aimed at Kira, but at her own temple.

"The relationship between you and the people around you is your unilateral exploitation, but on my side, it's bidirectional. This is the so-called..."

"Bond."

Immediately afterwards, Yae unhesitatingly pointed the gun at her own temple and pulled the trigger.

"Bang!!!"

After the gunshot, what appeared was not the scene of flesh and blood flying that Yatsugami Tsuki and L had expected, but a slightly helpless girlish voice.

"Sigh... honestly, even when asking for help, are you still trying to look cool?"

"Don't you understand this guy? The more it is at this time, the more he likes to show off. Honestly, this chuunibyou captain really gives me a headache."

Looking at the dozen or so women who appeared in an instant after Yae fired the gun, although their figures and appearances were different, and their types were also very different, they were all very outstanding in appearance. Kira couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.

"You... what is this...?"

Yae took two steps forward. At the moment when Futaba Rio and the others activated the power of Soul Manifestation and put on their combat attire, she condescendingly looked down at Kira standing in front of the Holy Grail and slowly said:

"The Paranormal Quantum Mechanics Research Society, appearing grandly!"

"Eh..."

Futaba Rio habitually made a gesture of pushing up her glasses, her eyes revealing a look of helplessness.

"You... why did you reveal our real identity?"

Yae retorted with a justified look:

"Anyway, he won't live past today, what's wrong with speaking freely?"

"Okay, okay, okay, I'll listen to you."

Futaba Rio replied with a mix of annoyance and amusement, then looked at Kira and the Holy Grail standing there, and immediately saw the key to the battle.

"You need to cut off those red blood vessels behind him, right?"

"Yes."

"Okay, I understand."

Without needing Futaba Rio to say it explicitly, Yotsuya Miko, who had fused with Hyakume, had already switched her eyes to a dark green color, scanning the few still-pulsating blood vessels behind Kira, and pointed out the weakest point among them.

"It's there."

"Okay, I understand."

Futaba Rio didn't hesitate, directly summoning her Hone-Onna, and the members of the Overload Society also simultaneously summoned their Soul Avatars at this moment.

"Oogetsuhime..."

Kawasaki Saki made an action of drawing a bow and shooting an arrow. The golden arrow formed by the spiritual power of everyone's Soul Avatars even caused the surrounding air to tremble as if it had been burned by high temperature.

"Let's end this all!"

Looking at the golden arrow of spiritual power shooting towards the Holy Grail, Kira's pupils dilated, as if he had fallen into madness. Ignoring his own safety, he stood directly in front of the golden arrow of spiritual power, his tone frantic:

"No... no!"
