Interrogation

"Hmm, this dish is pretty good, quite delicious. By the way, why did you only bring a basket of bread?" Liltotto asked Tsuna while enjoying her meal.

"It's good enough that there's anything to eat, or would you like the black bean set meal here?"

Liltotto shuddered, almost dropping the bread. She would never eat that charcoal-like thing again.

"Ask whatever you want to ask." After satisfying her initial urge to talk, Liltotto began to chew slowly and carefully.

"Don't I have to wait until you're finished eating?" Tsuna didn't expect this glutton to be able to resist.

"What if this is the last good meal? Of course I'll savor it." Liltotto didn't have high hopes for the extra meal.

"Alright then, first question: what are your resistance measures against interrogation? Blut Vene?"

Actually, Tsuna himself didn't have any problems; what he wanted to ask was Yhwach's whereabouts. However, Liltotto made it clear that she wouldn't tell him, so he could only ask Roy a question that interested them.

"The warriors of the Empire only know victory and death; they will never be used by the enemy to reveal the Empire's secrets." Liltotto shrugged. "That's what the old man who trained us said; he was a fanatic."

Uryū silently observed Liltotto from the side. Since Liltotto could describe others as madmen, it meant that her own loyalty to the Wandenreich was not that high.

"He taught us a way to resist torture and interrogation, the supercritical state of the Blut Vene. In this state, ordinary torture is ineffective against us. Once the Blut Vene breaks and exceeds our limit, the Blut will turn around and devour our lives."

"To some extent, this ability can exempt us from punishment; at worst, we'll just die. From what I understand, everyone is studying it very diligently."

"So tell that old black man not to waste his energy. Unless you really want to kill us, you won't get anything of value out of us. The others aren't like me, who can just go hungry for a meal."

Liltotto seemed distracted as she spoke. She gave in so quickly because she knew what Tsuna was thinking, and she was afraid that her other sisters would be stubborn and accidentally anger this terrifying guy, which could really mean their deaths.

"The second question is about finding your boss, or your team leader will also help."

Liltotto rolled her eyes. Betraying these two's information meant certain death even if they managed to get back. "You might as well just kill me."

"Then I'm all set, Uryū, it's all yours now."

Tsuna sat down against the corner of the wall, his spiritual senses silently spreading out. Sure enough, he detected a high density of spiritual pressure gathering in a room not far away, which was probably the room where Roy and the others were eavesdropping.

"Liltotto Lampard, how many people like you are there in the Quincy Legion?" Uryū, taking out his notebook with a serious expression.

"You're not like Sawada Tsunayoshi. Who are you? What do you mean by someone like me?" Liltotto didn't answer Uryū's question directly.

"My name is Ishida Uryū. I'd like to know how many people like you are capable but disloyal to the boss?"

"My loyalty to His Majesty is as clear as day!" Liltotto immediately stood up and pledged her loyalty to Yhwach, but it was only verbal. After reciting it, she immediately sat down and started eating, asking as she ate, "Who is Sōken Ishida to you?"

"Grandfather."

"You're not planning to let Sōken Ishida's grandson lead us, are you?" Liltotto asked, turning her head towards Tsuna.

"Since you've already guessed it, just answer the question honestly."

It was definitely the right choice to come to Liltotto first. Talking to smart people doesn't require much effort. If it were someone with a short temper like Candice, Tsuna would probably have ended up in the same predicament as Roy.

"Quincy are human too. For me, it's just that following my boss at that time would have been more promising. There are quite a few people in the legion who felt the same way."

"Becoming a member of the legion is, to a large extent, a choice one has to make. Rather than struggling to even fill one's stomach on one's own, joining the legion at least guarantees a decent meal."

Liltotto's words proved that, in her view, the entire Quincy Legion's loyalty to Yhwach was questionable.

"Take the Knights as an example. Those most loyal to the boss are those who had flaws in the past. The boss gave them a new life, and they are afraid of having everything taken away from them, so they are extremely loyal."

Hearing this, Tsuna thought to himself, "[Byakuran, this sounds like something you've done in the past.]"

[Heh, at least my true Six Wreaths won't betray me.] Byakuran sneered, and in his heart, he couldn't help but feel a little more appreciative of Yhwach. Directly seizing the weakness of a flawed person is much simpler than talking about feelings and cultivating loyalty.

[So you failed. The bonds of a family can't be broken by a group bound by interests like yours.] The Decimo actually started to criticize Byakuran.

[Damn Vongola, you were just lucky back then!] If it happened again, and Byakuran knew the power of the Vongola Box and the Vongola Rings, the outcome of the battle would be quite different.

While Tsuna listened to his inner monologue, Liltotto continued talking.

"Aside from the Knights, the other lower-ranking Quincy probably don't respect their boss as much as they respect their leaders."

The Quincy Corps is a large force, divided into many smaller teams. Only members of the Sternritter are qualified to be team leaders; for example, Cang Du is in charge of the Hueco Mundo Hunting Team.

Of course, there are also members in the Knights who are unwilling to be leaders. Liltotto is one of them. She prefers to play with a few girls of similar strength rather than be a leader or babysitter.

"In other words, the vast majority of low-level Quincy wouldn't mind if they had a new boss?" The conversation with Liltotto gave Uryū a clue.

"I get the feeling you're thinking something really rude..." Liltotto retorted. "It's not that I don't care, it's that I don't have the right. The members of the Knights can do whatever they want with these people."

"Including massacre, right?"

Hearing Uryū's words, Liltotto fell silent. She looked at Tsuna again. In this environment and with this tone of questioning, it was hard not to suspect that Tsuna knew something.

However, Tsuna completely ignored Liltotto; he was enjoying watching the Decimo and Byakuran bickering and teasing each other in his inner world.

Liltotto sighed and said, "As for Bambietta, she is indeed a bit abnormal. She has been suppressed in the Empire for too long, which has led to a somewhat abnormal mentality. If she weren't one of the few girls in the Knights, we probably wouldn't be able to get along."

"So, it seems there's a rift between you and her?" Uryū recalled the scene of the battle. "She charged at me, but none of you came to help."

"A little bit, I guess. I just can't stand the way she bullies people with her strength."

"So, what do you think should be done about Bambietta? Should we correct her? Or kill her?" Uryū passed the question Tsuna had left him to Liltotto.

Liltotto remained silent for a long time, even stopping her eating. In terms of personal preferences, she did indeed dislike Bambietta, but killing her made Liltotto hesitate.

Unbeknownst to her, Liltotto had been guided by Uryū to start thinking from Uryū perspective.

Uryū and Liltotto chatted for a long time and made a promise that he would bring her food every day for the next week. Tsuna, Liltotto, had already grown impatient and left first.

Thump, thump, as Tsuna passed by a cell, he was surprised to hear someone shouting arrogantly. He had assumed that the prisoners inside had been tamed by the Joka Squad.

Driven by curiosity, Tsuna went over to take a look and, sure enough, it was Bambietta, who was locked near the head of the bed. Only a few Quincy her could still maintain such physical strength.

Through the small window by the door, Bambietta immediately noticed Tsuna. His fierce appearance, evident even in his facial expression, made him seem menacing. "Let me out right now! The Legion won't let you get away with this!"

Bambietta doesn't know Tsuna, Tsuna has never had any direct contact with her. It's precisely because she believes deep down that these members of the Joka Squad are inferior to her that she dares to spout such nonsense here.

Tsuna only glanced at it and wasn't very interested, so he left Bambietta to Uryū to handle.

Tsuna's disregard further enraged Bambietta, but no matter how much she roared and shouted, she couldn't call Tsuna back.

And so, Tsuna left Uryū in WB's prison. Uryū turned his school trip into a field practice, while Tsuna, the instigator, spent two days in London searching for traces of other Quincy, and Mimi and Tatsuki enjoyed a two-day trip.

According to the agreement made with Sullivan, the captain of the Tactical Squad, and Miliu, the captain of the Holy Affairs Team, they should have been looking for Tsuna during their free time, but Tsuna was happy to have some free time.

In fact, London has been in turmoil for the past two days.

Originally, WB only needed to guard against the appearance of the Fairy Tale Dragon, but after Little Billy brought them the video content, they also had to add a contingency plan for the Quincy, an outsider.

According to Little Billy's intelligence, these so-called Quincy have a history of attempting to infiltrate the East Bureau. This time, they came to the West but were driven away from the East by an Eastern visitor named Sawada Tsunayoshi. It is highly likely that the Quincy army's target will shift to the West Bureau.

As a result, the entire Reverse London was thrown into a state of high alert. All retired Magicians were summoned back, and WB's forces were on high alert, ready to defend against any possible invasion.

In this atmosphere, the captains naturally had no time to communicate with Tsuna.

On the contrary, Noelle and Nini received a special mission: to stay by Tsuna's and his Japanese students' side around the clock. If the Quincy army really was as powerful as the legends said, they would need to use their relationship to ask Tsuna and his group for help.
