The Fog City
After a hearty meal, the girl group got up and left the cafe. It was a rare opportunity for them to get out and relax, so they wanted to have some fun and let out all the frustration they had accumulated over the centuries in the Wandenreich.
As she walked, Minnie suddenly stopped, a rare look of confusion on her face.
"What's wrong, Minnie?" Bambietta asked.
"No, it just felt like it suddenly got foggy," Minnie answered honestly.
"What's the big deal? Didn't you see how everyone around you doesn't seem to care?" Bambietta said matter-of-factly, trying to show that she was integrated into modern life, and she wouldn't admit her ignorant doubts.
"It's said that this place is known as the Fog City, a consequence of its rapid development in the past," said Liltotto, who was searching for nearby attractions on her phone.
Without a doubt, whether it's the cell phones or the money from modern consumer spending, it's all money that the girl group members swindled from passersby.
"That's good then, Liltotto, hurry up and take us to the next place we're going to conquer!" Candice, being so oblivious, didn't pay any attention to her surroundings.
"Walk two blocks and follow me." Liltotto had one hand in her pocket and the other holding her phone, looking at a London day trip guide.
As the girl group moved forward, more and more mist silently enveloped them, distorting their senses and making them unable to perceive changes in their surroundings, how long they had been walking, or how far they had gone.
The passersby around them didn't even notice the group of people who had suddenly disappeared, as if they had never been there at all.
"Huff, as expected of you, Sawada-sensei, you've given me such a big surprise as soon as you arrived in London," Little Billy said to Tsuna, panting heavily.
Just half a day after parting ways with Tsuna, Little Billy was summoned from Reverse London to Outer London by a text message from Tsuna with his location. The message about discovering Quincy forced Little Billy to make the trip.
"Stop with the nonsense. Do you have a place to hold these guys?" That was Tsuna's real purpose in finding Little Billy. This was someone else's territory; it would be more convenient for the locals.
"Are they planning to arrest them outright?" Little Billy for a moment, then took out his phone and snapped a picture of the girl group. "If possible, could you let them demonstrate their Quincy abilities?"
"I have no objection; in fact, I'd like to let Ichigo and the others try their skills." Tsuna asked, "But can you provide a venue? In London, for example."
Because he was afraid that the battle would affect the normal residents of London, Tsuna chose to use mist-attribute Illusion to surround the Quincy girls and lead them to sparsely populated streets.
"Please wait a moment." Little Billy dialed the phone, and after a brief conversation on the other end, he said to Tsuna, "We've found the location of the management team. Please lead them there."
Little Billy sent Tsuna a new location and explained, "That's the Magicians ' training base in Outer London. The management team is clearing it out now."
This is a training ground of an academy, littered with traces of explosions. Judging from the wisps of smoke rising from the chimneys, it seems a battle had taken place here not long ago. According to Little Billy, these should be traces left by Magicians during training.
A blond-haired man wearing sandals, a white shirt, khaki overalls, a green plaid shirt draped over his shoulders, and sunglasses walked over. The expression on his face inexplicably reminded Tsuna of Urahara Kisuke expression when he covered his mouth with a fan, exuding an aura of treachery.
"Welcome, welcome, everyone from the East. I'm the team leader, Harry Sack." Harry Sack shook Tsuna's hand and greeted him in a very familiar manner.
"The management team is mainly responsible for WB's daily operations and talent scouting in London, so we asked them for help," Little Billy said.
"Hello, let's not talk about much for now. Can we start? It seems that not all of these Quincy are idiots," Tsuna said, pointing to the Quincy girl group.
The petite Liltotto looked clearly suspicious; having been under the Illusion's control for too long, she had sensed something was amiss.
Tsuna didn't intend to directly destroy their minds, so he simply used a superficial illusion Illusion without employing any stronger power.
"Okay, Billy and I will take good care of the perimeter and make sure they don't escape easily." Like Urahara Kisuke, Harry Sack put away his carefree smile and became serious when it came to business.
"Hey, don't drag me into this, really." Little Billy only complained a couple of times. Every captain knew his strength, and with his two subordinates not around, there was nothing to hide.
"Everyone, get ready," Tsuna said to Ichigo.
"Don't worry, no problem!" Ichigo said, patting his chest. Uryū and Chad were both ready for battle, and the three of them surrounded the girl group.
In the mist, Liltotto stopped, and all four people's eyes focused on her.
"What's wrong, Lily?" Bambietta asked.
"Wait a minute! Have you noticed that we've been walking for too long?"
"Huh? Weren't you leading the way?" Candice retorted. It was precisely because she wasn't good at thinking things through that she had entrusted the entire London trip to Liltotto, and now Liltotto was asking them questions, which annoyed Candice.
"Candice, don't rush, let's hear what Liltotto has to say." Giselle was playing the good guy.
"Our destination is only two blocks away. We should have arrived long ago. Why are we still near this coffee shop?!"
Liltotto's words sent chills down everyone's spines. They quickly looked around and found that the scenery had changed. They were standing in the coffee shop again, still looking like they were about to leave, with a table full of leftover food in front of them.
"What, what's going on?" Candice's voice trembled slightly, realizing she had misunderstood Liltotto.
"What? What's going on? Of course, you're surrounded!"
The girl group immediately looked up and saw a man with orange hair carrying a large sword standing on the bridge. His black Shinigami Uniform was exceptionally conspicuous.
"Bleach?" Bambietta asked, though she didn't know why Bleach had appeared here, she immediately shouted to her companions, "Battle readiness..."
Before she could finish speaking, a Reishi arrow severed the tip of Bambietta's hair. There was no killing intent in the arrow, meaning that the archer could take her life at any moment.
A strong sense of humiliation welled up in Bambietta's heart. She was always the one intimidating others; when did it become someone else's turn to threaten her?
"Don't just stand there, form a defensive formation."
While Bambietta was stunned, Liltotto took over command. The appearance of the arrow told them that there was more than one enemy, Liltotto quickly ordered everyone to defend back to back.
At that moment, Bambietta also found the person who had ambushed her from the direction the arrows came from. On the clock tower on the opposite bank of the river stood a tall, slender man holding a longbow.
"So it was you!" Without saying a word, Bambietta stepped on Hirenkyaku and charged towards Uryū. She was furious and needed to kill to calm herself down.
"Hello!"
Seeing Bambietta rush out alone, Candice couldn't help but shout, "Going out to fight alone without knowing the enemy's situation is practically suicide!"
"That's just how she is, ignore her," Liltotto said. In fact, none of the four of them really liked Bambietta's arrogant personality.
"That's right, let him be, we'll deal with this Bleach!" Candice looked at Ichigo cruel smile, her hands crackling with electricity, already having figured out how to torture Ichigo.
Ichigo wasn't embarrassed or annoyed by Candice's somewhat threatening words, but instead said meaningfully, "It's not just Bleach, you know."
"A giant's blow!"
Chad's deep voice came from above Liltotto and the others. When Liltotto and the others saw Chad, Chad right hand had already transformed into the Giant's Right Arm, and he continued to fall from the sky with immense spiritual pressure.
"Oh no! Scatter!"
Just as Chad's attack was about to hit them, the four scattered to avoid it under Liltotto's command. Chad punched the center, and the explosion generated by the spiritual pressure blasted a gap in the riverbank.
"That's quite a feat, Bleach." Harry Sack couldn't help but exclaim as he saw Tsuna use his Illusion magic to transform his training ground into the London riverside.
When Liltotto realized something was wrong, Tsuna broke the Illusion control over them, but that didn't mean he completely broke the Illusion. This time, Tsuna used the Illusion to change the terrain, initially impacting the girl group's mental state.
Then, Ichigo two companions attack from all directions, disrupting the originally united girl group one by one.
After Chad's punch landed, a thin mist quietly enveloped the area, and each girl group member appeared in a different environment, allowing Tsuna to smoothly divide the battlefield.
"You should tone down your carefree attitude a bit. I don't know if the boss can beat that Sawada-sensei, but I'm definitely no match for him."
Little Billy sat down next to Harry Sack with a cigarette dangling from his lips. When Harry Sack told him he was there to provide protection, Little Billy almost burst out laughing. At the very least, Little Billy didn't believe these so-called Quincy could escape from Sawada-sensei's clutches.
"What!"
Little Billy's words startled Harry Sack, who was wearing sunglasses. "Him? Compared to the boss? This Sawada-sensei looks about the same age as your two henchmen, doesn't he?"
"I've already said what I wanted to say. Aren't your management team the most shrewd? They're the kind of people who can easily take down Bubble. You think about it yourself," Little Billy said with a shrug.
Harry Sack fell silent. Everything is most vulnerable to stark comparison. Speaking of the Fairy Tale Dragon, their West Bureau was on edge because of Fairy Tale Dragon whereabouts, while Sawada-sensei could handle it single-handedly...
