Crisis in the Night
In London at night, urgent sirens blared throughout the night sky, and signs prohibiting pedestrians began to rise at street intersections, while fluorescent evacuation signs crisscrossed every corner of London.
What is that sound?
After finishing their dinner, Tsuna and his friends, who were playing cards, immediately stood up and went to the window. In the dark London night sky, an ominous red alarm was flashing.
"Noelle, what's that alarm sounding?" Nini's face was full of fear. She and Noelle were playing games with Tsuna and the Tsuna.
"Yes, the highest level alarm. This is the alarm that sounds only when the legendary evil dragon appears." Noelle's expression was also very solemn.
"The legendary dragon? The Fairy Tale Dragon? That bubble from last time?" Tsuna asked.
"Yes, actually, it was an accident that Bubble was able to reach the East. According to Uncle Billy, Bubble wasn't very strong at that time. There are records that the Fairy Tale Dragon's strength would be weakened after it arrived in the East," Nini replied.
"So another Fairy Tale Dragon has appeared this time?" Ichigo asked.
"Wait a minute!" Noelle picked up her phone, which displayed a temporary mission from WB: "Inner Reverse London has been invaded by Quincy. The management team requests all Magicians in Outer London to assist in the evacuation of residents."
"The Quincy have invaded London?" Ichigo asked in surprise.
"Refuge?" The Sawada couple, who were paddling nearby, were surprised.
"Because of the fear that the Quincy might attack the residents of London, they are now using the guise of an emergency drill to evacuate the residents. I'm sorry, we can only accompany you this far. As witches, Noelle and I must go and help."
As Nini spoke, she took out two red plaid shawls from her bag, tossed one to Noelle, and once they put on the shawls, they became members of the Flute Squad and had to fulfill their duties as witches.
"Let's help too, if WB trusts us," Tsuna had been silent until now, said. "We might not be able to evacuate the crowd, but we have experience fighting Quincy."
Tsuna's words elicited knowing smiles from the other friends, except for Uryū. Most of their experience in fighting Quincy came from him, since neither Tsuna nor Ichigo were traditional Quincy.
"That's great! I'll report to the uncle right away!"
Nini jumped up excitedly. She had wanted Tsuna and the others to help for a long time, but since the defense of London was their West Bureau's business, they might not agree to let Tsuna and the Tsuna help if she asked them to.
"Mr. Billy has agreed. He will connect your signal to the West Bureau Defense Force. You can simply call out the name of the person you want to communicate with."
While Nini was excited, Noelle had already quietly finished reporting to Little Billy.
"Let's get going, Noelle." Nini's feet flashed with blue light. After learning the Hirenkyaku, she and Noelle rarely took their broom-like dragon companion out.
"Okay, Nini- chan."
"How many times have I told you, don't call me Nini- chan!"
"Wait a minute." Tsuna's words interrupted Nini and Noelle's bickering. He turned to the Sawada couple and said, "Mom and Dad, why don't you go to take refuge with us?"
"We? We should be able to help, right?" Iemitsu said somewhat uncertainly.
"Dad, the opponent is Quincy, and you've already faced them," Tsuna advised.
Sawada Iemitsu, recalling his achievements at dusk, could only reluctantly agree with Tsuna's statement. Just then, Nana placed a soft object in his hand.
"We're going to take refuge, but Little Tsuna, you have to protect yourself too, okay!"
Tsuna nodded and continued, "Tatsuki and Orihime, you two should come with my parents too. In case we encounter any threats, you can hold out until we arrive."
Tatsuki and Orihime nodded in unison; it was a long-established habit for them not to contradict each other in times of crisis.
"I'm in trouble, you two witches. Could you please take our people to the shelter first?" Tsuna then said to Noelle and the others.
"No problem, Uncle and Aunt, let's set off immediately!"
Nini jumped out of the window. Everyone present was an ability user, so there was no need to take the inconvenient route of the stairs.
After watching his parents leave, Tsuna said, "Let's get to work and protect our families and comrades."
Don't forget, Tsuna and the others are here on a school trip. The teacher just reminded them in the group chat to follow the arrangements made by the teachers at Noelle School and obediently head to the evacuation point.
In response, Tsuna and the others all replied in the group chat that they had received the message.
"Where should we go? We can't sense Quincy's spiritual pressure." Standing in the darkness of London, Ichigo somewhat troubled. Finding Quincy hiding their spiritual pressure in such a big city was like finding a needle in a haystack.
"All entrances from Outer London to Inner Reverse London have been blocked by the management team. We just need to be on guard to see if anything unexpected happens." Uryū informed the others of the results of his conversation with Harry Sack on his mobile phone.
"Let's find a high spot to sit. Hopefully, London will be peaceful tonight," Tsuna suggested. Sitting on a high spot would also allow them to immediately notice anything unusual in London.
"Great! I've been wanting to climb that triangular pyramid building for ages!" Ichigo said excitedly. During the day, tourists weren't allowed to go up to the top, but now that it was nighttime, no one could stop him.
"The Shard? Perfect for enjoying the London night view." Uryū also showed interest.
Sitting atop the tallest building, feeling the coolest breeze, Ichigo felt a little bored. "Can Bruno and the others handle this? Don't they need our help?"
"Don't forget, compared to the West Bureau, we are also outsiders," Tsuna reminded him. "Do you think they aren't afraid that we'll collude with the Quincy and take over the West Bureau?"
"You think too much..." Ichigo remarked.
At that moment, in Reverse London, someone shared the same thought as Ichigo. Bruno looked at his severely injured dragon companion beside him and shouted loudly to his comrade on the radio.
"Can't we just call Sawada Tsunayoshi and the others for help? They've fought these Quincy before, they should be able to handle them!"
Standing opposite Bruno and his captains were nearly twenty Quincy, and leading them was the trio of Bazz-B, Cang Du, and Cang Du, whom Tsuna was very familiar with, who had invaded Hueco Mundo.
The leader of the Quincy infiltration unit was Bazz-B, whose analytical abilities helped the infiltration unit uncover the true intelligence behind the smallest clues.
The reason for inviting Cang Du and Cang Du together was simply because they had worked together in Hueco Mundo before, and it would be easier for them to coordinate when going on missions together now.
Upon entering Reverse London, Bazz-B fired a shot directly at the WB headquarters building, but it was blocked by the building's protective magic.
Upon seeing Bruno and his team of captains rush out, Bazz-B and the other two unleashed the power of their Vollständig without hesitation.
In just one exchange, Bazz-B analyzed the abilities of Sullivan, Roy, and Bruno, and together with Cang Du and Cang Du, instantly suppressed them so much that they couldn't even raise their heads.
Cang Du seized an opportunity to stab Bruno, but at the critical moment, Bruno's dragon companion Rickenbacker blocked the attack, resulting in Rickenbacker's serious injury.
Hearing Bruno's somewhat flustered words, Wolfgang coldly replied in the communication, "This is our London. Do we have to rely on outsiders to protect our homeland?"
Wolfgang's words inspired the WB's combat members, and all the Magicians launched a frenzied attack on the Quincy.
Even Bruno, who was slightly discouraged, perked up. "Millie, Rickenbacker is in your hands now."
"What are you going to do, Bruno?"
Under the questioning gaze of Captain Miliu of the Holy Affairs Team, Bruno, holding two spray cans of graffiti and with blue magical light shimmering around his feet, declared, "What are we doing? Protecting our home, of course!"
Flying magic, sky glider, complete!
Bruno charged toward Cang Du using a flight magic technique improved from the Hirenkyaku. He used the sky as his canvas, filling his path with graffiti of various numbered magic circles.
All sorts of strange magic rushed towards Cang Du at once, and for a moment, Bruno actually suppressed Cang Du was looking at the Vollständig.
The Magicians ' counterattack also inspired the other two captains in the battle. Amidst Roy's earth-shattering incantation, Sullivan transformed into a terrifying half-human, half-dragon form and fought against Bazz-B and Cang Du one against two, holding his own without being at a disadvantage.
"Hey, hurry up and analyze their battle situation!" Cang Du shouted to Bazz-B.
"Analysis is inadequate. This noise causes the surrounding environmental factors to change thousands of times per second. I can't handle it," Bazz-B said truthfully.
Unable to analyze Sullivan's weaknesses, they had no choice but to fight Sullivan head-on. Cang Du cursed Bazz-B breath and unleashed the full power of his steel to battle Sullivan.
Bazz-B hand, used his pipes to create special projectiles, killed a Magicians guarding the passage, and then delivered the projectiles to Outer London.
Boom!
Huge fireworks rose into the London night sky, drawing everyone's attention, including that of Rain Grant Haschwalth, who was watching everything from outside London.
"Reverse London, is it that difficult to deal with?" Bazz-B released was not an ordinary firework, but a signal flare requesting support from the Empire.
Haschwalth led a featherless chick to the edge of London, controlled it using the restraints given to him by Yhwach, and imprinted a command deep within its heart.
"Go ahead, cause a ruckus!"
Freed from its shackles, the chick crawled on all fours at an astonishing speed, disappearing into the London night in an instant.
"Fireworks? Isn't martial law in effect?" Ichigo asked, somewhat puzzled.
A strange feeling welled up inside him. This time, Tsuna saw the entire city of London engulfed in war. He immediately stood up and solemnly surveyed the London night.
"Uryū, notify the management team, danger is coming!"
