5:24 a.m.
The morning sun rose, its golden light piercing through the thin mist and bringing warmth and brightness to the ruined continent.
In the upper-level conference room at Hero Association headquarters.
Morgan William, Dr. Stylish, and Orochimaru examined the nine silver-white alloy boxes on the table.
"Are these Cruel Dragon's sealing stones?"
"Yes. Although its exact strength is unknown, since it serves as the standard for judging Dragon-level disasters, it must at least be above general level."
"More importantly, its blood can grant people the power of dragon blood, turning them into so-called Dragon Warriors."
As Morgan William spoke, a holographic projection appeared above the table.
It played the battle between Metal Bat, Tanktop Master, Puri-Puri Prisoner, and the others against the Dragon Alliance Nine Warriors.
They focused on the latter's appearance and performance after transforming.
"One escaped, three survived with severe injuries, and five were killed on the spot."
"Once Ivankov's side finishes treating them, these Dragon Warriors will be handed over to the Biochemical Institute."
Orochimaru was not surprised. Smiling, he nodded in agreement. "Good. We're very interested."
He then looked at the boxes and said, "Give those to us as well. We can use them to imprison Cruel Dragon in Level 6 Infinite Hell."
The relationship between Cruel Dragon and the Dragon Warriors was somewhat similar to that between Fafhena and the Asarakaim clan.
Moreover, the Asarakaim were also known as the "Descendants of Dragons."
"Dr. Orochimaru, once you release Cruel Dragon, please send the nine sealing stones to the Academy of Sciences."
Dr. Stylish felt that the material itself was worth studying.
However, since they were related to sealing.
They would probably have to be transferred to the Sea Ninja Village's Ninjutsu Research Institute, the Yin-Yang Bureau's Spirit Arts Research Institute, or the Magitech Institute
