"Aaaah!"

"You, you bastard..."

The intense pain consumed almost all of Shi La's thoughts. Even though it was just one strike, he felt as if his bones and flesh had been pulverized.

Perhaps it was because he had lived a life of privilege since childhood and possessed extraordinary talent in martial arts, rarely encountering opponents, which resulted in a very low tolerance for pain.

The consequence of this was that Shi La couldn't spare any energy to use his spatial Imperial Arms.

"Stop them."

Meanwhile, upon hearing Yorii Tsugikuni's words, Adai instantly moved, vanishing from its spot.

When it reappeared.

The hair of all five members of the Wild Hunt was, without exception, cut off.

Feeling the coolness on their heads and looking at the seemingly foolish mechanical figure before them, cold sweat broke out on their backs.

If the little figure's strike had been aimed at their necks just now, they would have all been decapitated.

Chapter 69: Suppressing the Wild Hounds, Shi La: My father is Zhang Er... Honest!

"Little brother is really amazing. Dotya isn't going to do anything."

"As a girl, I'm not good at fighting and killing."

Dotya, already an old woman, took a couple of steps back with a charming smile after hearing Yorii Tsugikuni's words, saying, Yorii Tsugikuni's strength had been perfectly displayed in just that brief moment.

In the blink of an eye, he had appeared before Shi La with afterimages that were too fast to track.

And after Shi La used his spatial Imperial Arms, he once again closed the distance to Shi La in an extremely short amount of time.

It wasn't until Yorii Tsugikuni punched Shi La into the ground that the members of the Wild Hounds reacted.

The people in the Wild Hounds were not ignorant of the world; they were all shrewd individuals.

Naturally, from the tip of the iceberg that Yorii Tsugikuni had shown, they could deduce that they were definitely no match for him.

Not to mention, there was also a terrifyingly powerful Imperial Arms obstructing them.

They were naturally aware of how Yorii Tsugikuni had previously overwhelmed Night Raid, leaving them no room to fight back.

In fact, if it weren't for the fact that they were near the Imperial Capital and that Shi La was Minister Honest's son, making it inconvenient for them to do nothing, they would have retreated as far as possible without Yorii Tsugikuni even needing to warn them.

"Cosmia feels the same way."

"Actually, Cosmia kind of likes little brother."

Cosmia, who enjoyed toying with men, said with a smile to Yorii Tsugikuni, "Can Cosmia visit little brother's home tonight? We can do some things little brother likes to do."

Cosmia's eyes practically sparkled as she looked at Yorii Tsugikuni.

The qualities Yorii Tsugikuni had displayed in such a short time deeply attracted Cosmia.

Cosmia was now feeling incredibly restless, wanting to do some of the things that men and women should do together with Yorii Tsugikuni.

The other members of the Wild Hounds didn't say much more, following Dotya in taking two steps back to indicate they wouldn't act rashly.

Seeing the Wild Hounds' decision, Yorii Tsugikuni said nothing further, shifting his gaze back to Shi La, who was gradually recovering from the pain.

Sensing the shadow cast by Yorii Tsugikuni and his gaze, Shi La, who had just recovered, instinctively shivered. The mind that had been clouded by resentment instantly cleared.

"Captain Yorii Tsugikuni, there's no direct conflict between us. I admit I spoke out of turn just now. I apologize to you, Captain Yorii Tsugikuni."

"I'm just a foul-mouthed person. I didn't intend to offend Captain Yorii Tsugikuni."

Yorii Tsugikuni's methods made Shi La tremble with fear as he spoke.

"Hand over your Imperial Arms."

Looking at Shi La trembling in fear at his feet, Yorii Tsugikuni's expression remained unchanged.

His tone was flat, devoid of any emotional fluctuation.

Upon hearing Yorii Tsugikuni's words, Shi La tried to struggle, but before he could even move, his vision went black, followed by a sharp pain in his head.

Then, he fainted.

"You bastard!"

After forcefully hitting Shi La on the head and knocking him out, Sayo threw away the brick in her hand.

She quickly retrieved a plate with a Tai Chi symbol from Shi La's body.

"Everyone, hand over your Imperial Arms."

After disarming Shi La, Sayo approached the other members of the Wild Hounds.

Although some of them were reluctant, when they saw the mechanical Yorii Tsugikuni's gaze fall upon them, Without exception, they all surrendered their Imperial Arms.

In their eyes, as long as they were alive, there was still hope. Shi La was still alive, and relying on the fact that he was Minister Honest's son.

They could be arrested, but they also had a chance of being released.

Therefore, surrendering their Imperial Arms was not an unacceptable course of action.

Late at night.

After interrogating all the Wild Hunters and Shira, Yorii Tsugikuni imprisoned them before returning to his mansion.

To prevent them from being rescued, Yorii Tsugikuni had also made sure to leave some tracking methods on them.

As such, he wasn't worried at all that they would escape.

"About today's events."

"Thank you."

On the way home, Yorii Tsugikuni and Sayo walked slowly.

Her experiences today had been extremely perilous. If Yorii Tsugikuni hadn't appeared in time, her situation would likely be dire.

"We're friends."

Yorii Tsugikuni didn't say much more.

From Shira's venomous words, he could tell that Yorii Tsugikuni was partly responsible for the danger Sayo had faced today.

Recalling the moments he had spent with Sayo, he was happy to have made a friend like her.

"Yes, I hope we'll be good friends forever... always."

Sayo nodded.

Thinking of something, her face quickly turned red.

Before long, she hurried away with Kobi.

'Forever?'

Yorii Tsugikuni shook his head at Sayo's slightly strange behavior.

A faint smile appeared on his face.

Sayo's words made him think of so many things.

He didn't know how long he would stay in this place.

"Master."

"Will something happen if we arrest the Minister's son?"

Ieyasu, Tatsumi, and Sayo caught up from behind.

The three of them had been dealing with some matters with the guards, so they were walking behind Yorii Tsugikuni.

As they walked back together, Ieyasu became somewhat worried.

Perhaps before, he hadn't known the extent of the Minister's power.

But during his month as a member of the Security Force, as he came into contact with more people, he gradually realized that the Minister's absolute control over the Empire was not just a legend.

Although the people they had apprehended before had some connection to the Minister, they were all insignificant individuals.

However, by arresting the Minister's son today, they had effectively torn their relationship with the Minister to shreds.

They were completely going against the Minister.

"Do what needs to be done."

"Don't worry about anything else."

Yorii Tsugikuni had no regrets about arresting Shira.

After they had identified Shira as a key suspect in the escape of those from the prison, and since Shira had no criminal record within the Security Force, he obtained some information from Night Raid after speaking with Chelsea.

The information contained many cases of missing girls that were linked to Shira.

However, in the end, the families of the victims either chose to remain silent or died due to unfortunate accidents.

Yorii Tsugikuni had personally verified that the people involved were indeed connected to Shira.

Chapter 70: Shock! The Minister's Son is Imprisoned!

Yorii Tsugikuni naturally knew what Ieyasu was worried about.

It was nothing more than the pressure coming from Honest.

To him, even if they had captured someone like a prince, Yorii Tsugikuni would still act according to the law.

He would uphold the fairness of the law within his scope of duty.

Therefore, he had no worries or complex thoughts about Shira's capture.

However, as Yorii Tsugikuni slowly walked back with everyone.

The matter of Shira's capture.

It caused huge ripples among all the factions in the Imperial Capital.

After all, one party in the incident was the most powerful person in the empire, Minister Honest's son, and the other was a rising star shining in the Imperial Capital.

The clash between the two made people incredibly excited and attracted countless eyes.

In a mansion beside the Imperial Palace.

"General, this incident happened suddenly, and it might be an opportunity for us."

"Shira has committed countless evil deeds in the Imperial Capital over the years, but we could never find evidence. Now that he is under control, it is our entry point to move against Minister Honest."

The courtyard was already filled with people who had rushed over.

The burning candle wax crackled from time to time.

General Budou, who had just returned to the courtyard from the Imperial Palace, was surrounded by his subordinates and colleagues who had rushed to meet him.

"Moreover, if we don't act, with Minister Honest's methods, Shira might ultimately get away with everything and still remain at large."

Seeing General Budou frown and remain silent.

An official who had been squeezed out of the court by Minister Honest, having rushed over, looked worriedly at General Budou. "Also, that Security Force captain might also face some repercussions."

"I will consider this matter carefully."
