The Young Lady is in Action

"What?!"

"Master Shio... is gone?"

Tokyo, in the Metropolitan Police Department director's office, Director Takeya abruptly rose to his feet.

"What the hell was Osaka doing—"

He had already sent Hikari over there as reinforcements, yet Master Shio had still met with an accident?!

"Yes, Lady Hikari was delayed on the way. The one who stopped her was 'Fear of Five Punishments,' the second seat of the Ten Blades."

The secretary reported with a bow. This matter was far too significant—not only had it shaken the Island Nation, it had sent tremors through the entire supernatural world.

Though the leaders of major supernatural factions now needed Dragon Rank strength to hold their positions, Ghost Rank fighters were still far from weak; or rather, they had never been weak!

Every Ghost Rank fighter might have their own specialties, but whether in defense, offense, or abilities, they had no obvious weaknesses and were extremely difficult to kill—even when facing Dragon Rank opponents.

Toneri of the Nine-Tails Faction had once relied on the Eye of God to fight Uminari of the Sea Kingdom to a standstill. When Kafka, Master Shio, and Mai joined forces, they had even beaten Ie into fleeing in disarray. The gap between Ghost and Dragon Rank was not as large as that between Tiger and Ghost Rank.

Only peak Dragon Rank powerhouses like Abe no Seimei and Tamamo-no-Mae of the Nine-Tails dared claim they could easily crush a Ghost Rank opponent.

Moreover, Master Shio had his Dharma Manifestation covering his body, immune to all laws and unharmed by all evil;

Unless someone forcefully broke through his Dharma Manifestation, they could not harm his true body at all.

In some ways, it was very similar to the abilities of Susanoo's Eye of God.

So Director Takeya could not understand it.
