The Gray Organization, You'll Take It Down in Two Days?

After hearing Uchiha's solemn promise.

Tachibana Akane felt like she was on a basketball court, with one person holding the ball while nine others panicked.

She rubbed her brow and calmly warned him:

"Underclassman, remember this!!"

"All actions must follow orders."

Ichinose agreed as well:

"Senior is right. Uchiha, whatever you want to do, you must discuss it with us first."

Uchiha nodded. "You got it."

He then looked at the chairman.

"So, who's the victim?"

Sakayanagi froze. The letter he had received yesterday had been anonymous, and he really had no answer off the top of his head.

"I don't know."

Uchiha: "?"

"Then do you have a photo of the stalker?"

Sakayanagi shook his head. "No."

"There must be some identifying features, right? Just tell me one."

Sakayanagi still shook his head. "I'm not sure."

"..."

Looking at the refined man in the suit, Uchiha realized something: scholars were good for nothing.

A true case of knowing nothing when asked three questions!!!

The masked boy simply closed his eyes to rest.

"Don't worry."

"The less information there is, the faster the case gets solved."

Sakayanagi: "...???"

The things this kid said were seriously incredible!

He could make people lose it with just a few casual words!!

Those screenwriters lacking imagination should go find him and have him add the finishing touch to some cliché plotlines. Their view counts probably wouldn't be low!!!

Sakayanagi sighed and started the car again.

Vrooom!!!

With the accelerator pressed down, the Maybach surged forward.

Honestly, he no longer wanted to be shocked.

Too much shock could shorten one's lifespan.

"Alright, one day of running around is enough."

At that moment, the chairman recalled something and spoke up.

"Similar harassment incidents have happened in previous years, but they were never completely eliminated."

"So I suspect that staff both inside and outside the academy have long since been corrupted. There may be more than one stalker operating on the edge of the law... They may have even formed their own gray organization."

Uchiha's eyes lit up.

Sakayanagi said, "You seem excited?"

Uchiha held himself back. "Do I?"

"Listen to me first."

Sakayanagi continued.

"Precisely because their members are widely scattered and act in secret, we've tracked them for years without results."

"Conservatively speaking, this organization has at least twenty or thirty people. You must be careful. If things go badly, contact your companions immediately or ask the security team for help..."

Upon hearing that.

Tachibana Akane and Ichinose's expressions shifted slightly. The other side had strength in numbers. This mission looked rather troublesome!!

Hm?!

Uchiha was intrigued.

"You're sure there are twenty or thirty enemies?"

The more people, the better!!

Then I can uproot this criminal organization entirely...

Once my heroic deeds spread throughout the school, wouldn't my spirit points soar?

Sakayanagi rested a hand on the steering wheel and secretly laughed to himself.

He got scared after hearing there were so many people?!

Even a little demon like you, who fears neither heaven nor earth, has things you're afraid of?!

Sakayanagi completely failed to notice Uchiha's little calculations and spoke calmly.

"There could even be forty or fifty. There may be skilled fighters among them, or thugs carrying daggers and machetes. This is no joke!!"

"So your mission is simple: finding their hideout counts as success. Don't rashly go in too deep."

"Student Uchiha, if you're scared, you may apply to withdraw from this mission."

The masked boy did not even raise his eyelids.

"Just forty or fifty thugs? That's not enough to fight."

"When I was in high school, gang fights had at least tens of thousands of people."

[Critical Hit! Spirit +3223]

[Spirit +1095]

[Spirit +1041]

[Spirit +1178]

[...]

Everyone: "...???"

Tens of thousands?!!

What kind of school was that?!! Was it a school for mental patients?!!

Horikita turned around to look at him and rolled her eyes.

"Don't underestimate any low-level thug. Their rule of survival every day is—risking their lives."

Uchiha's expression changed slightly.

Horikita thought he was starting to back down and waved a hand.

"But there's no need to worry. These thugs haven't learned martial arts. They only have brute strength and no techniques, so they're relatively easy to deal with."

"They have too many openings. You can try subduing them in one move."

"And this is a society ruled by law now. They wouldn't dare go too far."

After hearing Horikita, Uchiha asked seriously, "How many can you take on alone?"

The president looked proud. "Twenty would be no problem."

"Sigh."

Uchiha sighed.

Hm?!

Question marks practically erupted over everyone's heads inside the car.

Ichinose voiced what everyone was thinking.

"Why are you sighing?"

Uchiha said, "I pity them for being too weak. They wouldn't withstand more than a few of my punches."

Ichinose lowered her beautiful eyes. "..."

Sakayanagi: "???"

No, you're showing off again?!

[Spirit +1369]

[Spirit +1241]

[...]

"This gray organization has grown increasingly powerful. The boss behind it must be extremely strong. How about I bring Horikita into the group? You can look out for each other."

Uchiha's expression was utterly calm.

"No need. A mere boss behind the scenes—if necessary, I'll take action."

"..."

Everyone's faces darkened, their lips pressed tightly together.

Sakayanagi's hand slipped, and he nearly drove the car into a ditch...

He hurriedly steadied himself, inwardly ranting madly—

This kid was invincible!!

He was completely immersed in his own world, not knowing heaven from earth.

[Critical Hit +2093]

[Critical Hit +2126]

[...]

Uchiha felt there was nothing wrong with what he had said.

With the Kirin Arm, Invincible Golden Body, and Spotless, he could purge the waste from his body while fighting and remain in peak condition forever.

Right, with Photographic Memory, he would surely know the enemy's movements like the back of his hand.

Then he could carry a few bags of beef jerky. When he got tired, he could chew a few bites to continuously replenish his body's energy.

Besides, he still had his ultimate trump card: the evolved superpower—Rainwater Manipulation.

Its third wonderful use had to be mentioned here.

It wasn't limited to rainy days.

As long as there were water molecules in the air, he could extract them and make water bullets.

An unlimited-ammo rainwater machine gun—could you picture it?!

He had already started imagining it in his head!

In the future, whenever he encountered bad guys, he wouldn't need to throw a punch. With a simple raise of his hand, countless rain bullets would fly over with a whoosh, whoosh, whoosh.

The other side would be blasted straight into a sieve.

The more Uchiha thought about it, the better he felt. The corners of his mouth nearly split to his ears.

At that moment.

Sakayanagi drove the car beneath the student dormitory building.

He encouraged them.

"I hope you can eliminate this criminal group as soon as possible."

"I'll await your good news."

Uchiha patted his chest and pointed at Sakayanagi.

"At most two days."

"I'll turn this organization to ashes."

"..."

Sakayanagi choked on his saliva.

Watching Uchiha's retreating figure as he pushed open the car door and left.

The chairman let out a long breath.

Those twenty minutes with Uchiha had been more exciting than his entire past year combined!!

Two weeks later.

Beneath the banyan tree.

Uchiha threw his final punch.

As if sensing something, he leisurely turned around.

A purple-haired senior with twin buns was rushing toward him in a fury.

Tachibana Akane grabbed the masked boy by the ear.

Wasn't this the cutest height difference ever?!

"You said you'd finish the mission in two days, but you freaking vanished for half a month!!"

"Didn't the president give you the student council's internal communication phone?!!"

"There were attendance missions—didn't you see them?!!"

Uchiha was expressionless.

"Communication phone? I think I lost it."

Tachibana Akane: "..."

She was so angry that she began wildly beating up the banyan tree!!!

Banyan tree: Get lost! Why are you hitting me? Only the Spirit Emperor can touch me!!!

Three minutes later.

The furious Tachibana Akane finally calmed down. She seemed to have thought of something.

It was already late April. The day after tomorrow would be the day points were distributed.

She wanted to see just how many monthly points Class D, where Uchiha was, had earned!!!

"Underclassman, there'll be a surprise waiting for you on May 1st~"

Uchiha nodded.

There really would be a surprise.

The stocks he had gone all-in on earlier were due to close.
