Breaking the Reverse Magic
"Captain Sacareen? Captain Sacareen?" The assistant's voice came through the channel again, "I'm sorry everyone, the captain has fallen unconscious again, Captain Wolfgang. Because the reversal magic that teleports a large number of people to Reverse London requires the assistance of dragons, the captain happened to wake up while I was contacting the Dragon Raja..."
"No need for explanations!" Wolfgang forcefully stopped his assistant, looking at the various dragons swarming down like dumplings, and said, "Keep the channel open! You've done a great job, a huge help!"
They call themselves Dragon Raja, but they're actually just a race. They don't really have much to do with dragons. The dragons that appear in London are more like animals than anything in the animal kingdom.
Those that look better are more likely to World of the Living variants of these animals, such as the sika deer that can grow healing flowers on its head and is as tall as four or five people.
Those that look bizarre come in all shapes and sizes, such as monsters combined with various means of transportation, like buses, subways, and airplanes... The most numerous are dragons that resemble flying broomsticks.
These dragons were far less powerful than Satan, even more so than the Fairy Tale Dragon, but their sheer numbers were overwhelming. Countless attacks, which were insignificant compared to the dragons in fairy tales, were unleashed within London. The sheer volume of attacks combined actually managed to withstand Satan's power to destroy London.
During this time, the dragons without fighting power flew towards the refuge area. Having coexisted with the Magicians, they had gradually lost their offensive capabilities and had become more of a part of the normal operation of London.
They are still able to serve their purpose today, acting as dragon vehicles to save the residents of London.
Ordinary people in London were confused and somewhat panicked; all they saw were people in uniforms tossing them into the air one by one.
To their horror, those people flying in the sky did not fall, but instead remained steadily in the air in various strange postures.
In the eyes of the Magicians, they were simply transferring people from the ground to the dragon vehicles. Because of the urgency, they no longer had time to evacuate the refugees one by one to the dragon vehicles as before; simply throwing them was the best method.
"Very good!"
Seeing so many dragons appear, Tatsuki was also very excited. After all, using Poseidon's power could potentially kill people, but now she might be able to save everyone.
Tatsuki, who activated Flash Cry, was the most efficient one in the area. Afterimages appeared in the evacuation area, and the residents on the ground were being evacuated quickly.
The Sawada couple also joined the rescue effort; as ability users, their efficiency in saving lives was no less than that of Magicians.
The rescue intelligence from London was quickly transcribed into text and broadcast to the channel by the Development Squad. Upon hearing the news that all residents could be rescued, the captains of the West Bureau couldn't help but smile.
"Everyone, I think you should be considering how to withstand Satan's subsequent attacks before Tsuna returns."
Hirako poured cold water on Satan's enthusiasm. Satan's eyes clearly realized that his attack to destroy London had failed, and he turned his attention to the group of people who were standing in his way.
None of the captains of the West Bureau spoke; after the previous two rounds, they had already understood the gap between themselves and Satan.
Death is not scary; what is scary is that even with your life, you cannot stop Satan for even a second longer.
"I'll do it!" Wolfgang made his decision. He wasn't sure he could wait for Tsuna's return even if he risked his life, but every second counted. "Everyone evacuate! Development Squad, prepare the reversal magic!"
By using a reversal technique, Wolfgang Reishi everyone in Outer London and transports them to Reverse London, deciding to shoulder the burden alone.
Two whooshing sounds slammed into Roy and Harry Sack, and when they reached out, they were surprised to find that Byakuya and Toshiro had caught them instead.
"This is a real headache. You guys should leave now. I'll hold it off." It was Hirako Shinji who spoke, his face full of annoyance. If Tsuna hadn't been on his way, he and the two captains would have already disappeared without a trace.
"But..."
Seeing Hirako approach, Wolfgang wanted to say something. In his opinion, London was not yet the place for the Bleach of the East Bureau to sacrifice himself. However, before he could utter a word, Hirako kicked him away.
Pinkish-purple flames fell where they had been standing; Wolfgang, momentarily distracted, hadn't noticed Satan's attack.
"Let's go, I'm confident I'll survive!" Hirako didn't look at Wolfgang; he wasn't trying to be brave. He was prepared to try his Bankai.
The Bankai of the Sakanade skin, the Gyakushū Hōgōsai, allows Hirako to hide in a flower-shaped pedestal. The pedestal releases an indiscriminate fragrance, causing enemies within the fragrance's coverage area to have their perception reversed and enter a state of mutual slaughter.
Hirako's Bankai is the best skill for clearing out mobs. Although there is only one enemy, Satan, Hirako is confident that he can confuse Satan and survive Satan's attack. However, this Bankai cannot kill Satan.
"Trust him, he's the captain of our Seireitei's Fifth Division Captain!" Byakuya's firm words made the decision for Wolfgang.
"I understand. Please, Mr. Hirako, everyone evacuate!" Wolfgang helped carry Byakuya's other half of his body and led everyone toward the shelter.
"Hurry up, the sooner you leave, the better my chances of survival will be." Hirako silently put on his Visored, activated Sakanade again, and now he only had one mission: to survive until he was the only one left in London.
Because the ability of the Gyakushū Hōgōsai is indiscriminate, even one's own people will be affected, Hirako can only activate this Bankai by entering the most dangerous battlefield alone.
[Reversal magic activated! All Magicians and dragons, please contribute your magic!]
With everyone about to be taken to Reverse London, there was no point in hiding anymore, so the Development Squad began directing the operation directly over the loudspeaker.
Listening to the incomprehensible broadcast, the London residents watched in clear eyes as the staff around them began to glow with magical light. It was magic, and the magic gradually gathered on the ground, slowly outlining a huge magic circle.
Tiny streams converge into a vast ocean; the magic of all of London is so powerful that even the evil dragon Satan from fairy tales cannot help but turn his attention to the refuge in the heart of London.
How could Hirako allow Satan to cause trouble at this crucial moment? With the activation of the Sakanade ability, this time it wasn't Hirako's own position that was reversed, but rather Satan's perception of the world.
The world had been turned upside down, and the immense spiritual pressure that Satan felt was actually coming from the upside-down city in the sky.
The humiliation of being mocked first appeared in Satan; the more the little man who was hiding and dodging tried to stop him, the more Satan wanted to destroy him!
The magic circle for reversing magic is gradually taking shape, and only the final stroke of the outer circle is needed to complete it. The dragon's magic power is still being injected, and thanks to Reverse London's support, the magic power is still plentiful.
It can be done! A single belief arose in the hearts of all the Magicians at the same time. Ever since the Fairy Tale Dragon attacked London, their efforts were finally on track as planned.
At this crucial moment, a dragon's roar that resounded through the heavens and earth was heard by everyone, regardless of whether they were Magicians or not.
"Mr. Hirako, is this an attack on Satan?"
The people in the West Bureau were unaware of Hirako's abilities and assumed that this was the sound Satan made after Hirako had harmed Satan.
Only Toshiro and Byakuya vaguely felt something was strange: When did Hirako Shinji acquire this level of power?
This dragon's roar drew everyone's attention, and no one noticed that the dragons around them had all stopped moving.
The whites of the dragons' eyes were gradually turning black, and an indescribable malevolence was slowly emanating from them.
"The magic circle has stopped supplying magic power. Please have the personnel on site immediately identify the problem!"
The Development Squad's voice awakened the Magicians who were intoxicated by the dragon's roar. The Development Squad itself was in Reverse London, and they were not affected by Satan.
But by the time the Development Squad realized something was wrong based on the changes in the magic circle's power, it was too late.
The reversal spell is just one final stroke away from being successfully activated; otherwise, it will remain a spell that can never be cast.
Before the Magicians could even begin to find the root of the problem, screams and cries of panic erupted from the crowd. Some Magicians had already been bitten by their dragon companions, and many dragons were shaking their bodies, forcing the Magicians to fall from the sky.
This phenomenon wasn't limited to Magicians; ordinary people also felt the invisible earthquake shaking. They could only helplessly cling to the unseen object, trying their best to stay afloat.
In addition, the dragons that originally resisted Satan's attacks have all turned their heads towards humanity. Their goals have changed from sharing the fate of London to destroying everything that displeases them, whether it be people or things, at all costs.
By now, even the slowest Magicians should have realized that the one who attacked them was their comrade, the dragon they had just fought alongside!
All dragons, awakened by Satan's roar, had their inner darkness stirred, transforming from luminous dragons that coexisted with humans into Dark Dragon that destroyed everything.
"Damn Satan, damn mythology!" Wolfgang cursed, but his body didn't dare to stop for a moment, quickly catching the Magicians falling from the sky one by one.
Legend has it that the fallen angel once led a third of the angels in a rebellion. It can be said that it was Satan's own power to tempt the dragon of light into darkness. The dragon's companions' sudden betrayal caught everyone off guard.
Reversal magic is meaningless now; what's more important is how to help more people survive this encirclement of the Dark Dragon.
Not just Magicians, but ordinary people too.
Dragons can carry people, but they can also overturn them. More and more people couldn't hold on and were thrown off by the dragon vehicles. Few Magicians had the ability to fly on their own, and Wolfgang and his few companions couldn't handle that many people. A million people was far too many.
