Chapter 359

"Furthermore, I also mobilized the Self-Defense Forces and the police to assist."

However, upon hearing Kurogane Gen's words, Shinguji Kuroko, along with Morohoshi Yudai and Kuden'en Kanata were present, also showed hesitant expressions.

This statement means that the residents of Kyushu must abandon the land and life that nurtured them.

Morohoshi Yudai, who was standing to the side, also fell into deep thought.

Shinguji Kuroko also gently lowered her eyes.

Although she was able to defeat "Great Flame", it was by no means a victory without any injuries.

To counter the Pacific Fleet's attack on the "White Whale," she must be at her peak and unscathed.

And just then...

"Harima Tendou to me."

At the entrance to the conference room, Touka, whose original double braids had been tied into a high ponytail, stood at the door.

The moment Shinguji Kuroko saw Touka, she sensed something unusual about her.

As someone who had once stepped one foot into awakening and was just one step away from awakening into a demon, Shinguji Kuroko immediately sensed the aura emanating from Touka.

"Touka, you..."

Touka's chestnut-gold eyes were filled with a hint of power.

Touka looked at Shinguji Kuroko, a smile appearing in his eyes, and then nodded slightly.

Then Touka looked at Kurogane Gen.

"Uncle Yan, please leave Harima Tendou to me!"

"You're not the only one."

At this moment, Morohoshi Yudai also came out, smiled at Touka, and then turned his head to look at Kurogane Gen.

Touka also looked at Kurogane Gen and spoke sternly.

"Kyushu... Little Mio 'Wakaba Home is the home where Mio and I have countless memories. I will never let Harima Tendou harm it in the slightest."

Looking at Touka, even through the screen, Kurogane Gen could sense the unique atmosphere surrounding Touka.

In addition, Shinguji Kuroko looked at Touka with a surprised expression just now.

Kurogane Gen also guessed it.

Touka has "awakened" and entered the realm of the demon!

Seeing Touka's firm and unyielding gaze, Kurogane Gen's lips curled up slightly, but in the blink of an eye, his expression returned to blank.

Kurogane Gen looked at Shinguji Kuroko.

"Shinguji, return to Tokyo at full speed as usual."

Then Kurogane Gen looked towards the corner of the conference room, Kuden'en Kanata.

"Guideyuan, use your authority to gather as many civilian ships as possible to southern Kyushu, regardless of their type, the more the better."

"Okay, I understand!"

Finally, Kurogane Gen looked at Touka and Morohoshi Yudai.

"Then, I'll leave Harima Tendou to you."

Upon hearing this, Touka's face lit up with joy, and he nodded emphatically.

Then Kurogane Gen spoke to Touka again.

"Toudo Touka, now that you've reached that level, I have only one invitation for you."

"That means returning unscathed..."

"The entire Far East needs you now!"

"Um!"

"In that case..."

Morohoshi Yudai stepped forward from the side and looked at Kurogane Gen on the screen.

"Old Man Black Iron, I want to borrow someone to come to Kyushu."

"Touka's current combat strength will play a significant role in the future battle. Therefore, in order to preserve her excess combat strength, I need someone to come to Kyushu. My cooperation with him can perfectly hold off Harima Tendou for a period of time. In this way, Touka can also defeat Harima Tendou very easily."

Upon hearing this, Kurogane Gen narrowed his eyes.

"Who."

Morohoshi Yudai's lips curled up.

"Kurashiki Kurato".

——

At the peak of Edelberg.

At the home of Edelweiss World's Number One Swordsman Twin Wings.

Edelweiss, with a gentle expression, carried the freshly baked dessert into a room.

All I could see was a soft bed in the room.

A petite figure in violet was lying on the bed playing her video games.

"Take this! Take this!"

"Ouch! Ouch! Ouch! Stop chasing me! Stop chasing me!"

Looking at the petite figure in front of him, Edelweiss also revealed a smile.

"Time for dessert, empty."

Upon hearing Edelweiss call his name, the figure on the bed turned his head to look at him.

Her eyes were as bright as Liuli, her hair as long and dreamy as violet, and her face was as beautiful and lovely as if an angel had descended to earth.

When Kong saw the dessert that Edelweiss was holding, he also pursed his lips.

"Eating desserts again? I had desserts for all three meals yesterday, I'm getting sick of it."

"Huh?!"

Upon hearing this, Edelweiss's face stiffened.

Looking at Edelweiss, Sora's heart was also crying out.

'Bella... when are you coming back?'

Sora glanced at Edelweiss's expression, which looked like he was questioning the meaning of life, and sighed softly.

Then he took the dessert from Edelweiss's hand and popped it into his mouth.

Then he said to Edelweiss.

"I still have some steamed buns that Bella prepared for me stored in my Imaginary Space. I'll take them and steam them later."

Upon hearing Sora's words, Edelweiss put down the dessert in his hand and suddenly pulled Sora into his arms.

"Ugh... Let go! Let go! Your breasts are squeezing me to death!"

In Edelweiss's arms, Kong struggled frantically.

After the two of them had been arguing for a while, Edelweiss looked into the air and spoke slowly.

"The Alliance has officially declared war on the League!"

Upon hearing this, Kong continued playing his video game with a blank expression.

Then Edelweiss continued.

"And it was the U.S. that sent troops to the Sea Domain near the Far East and declared war on the Far East."

Upon hearing this, Kong's eyes flickered slightly, and he glanced at Edelweiss.

"But in reality, it was the U.S. that declared war on the 'League.'"

Kong Leng snorted.

"Those countries that are 'Alliance' are, in essence, only Alliance."

"China, Russia, and other major powers are not to be trifled with either. The U.S. doesn't have the capability to persuade them to declare war on the 'League.'"

"So the other major powers in the Alliance are currently in a neutral position?"

Edelweiss nodded slightly.

Kong stopped playing the video game in his hand and looked at Edelweiss.

"If that's the case, what is the purpose of the U.S.'s invasion and war in the Far East?"

"It is said that Mr. Tsukikage Makuya was captured at the headquarters of the 'Rebel Army,' their Alps Mountain Base."

Kong's eyes narrowed slightly.

"So, the U.S. used the pretext of Tsukikage Makuya colluding with the 'Rebel Army' to launch attacks on the Far East and the 'League'?"

"Um."

Edelweiss looked into the sky.

"Aren't you going to help, Kong?"

Upon hearing this, Kong fell silent.

He then shook his head.

"The reason I came back is to protect my brother's other half of his 'soul' from being implicated in the clash between the Three Great Powers."

"But this is a problem between countries, so there is no need for me to get involved."

"And..."

Kong chuckled softly at Edelweiss.

"I believe in Sister Touka and the others."

At this moment, Kong's expression suddenly froze.

A hint of happiness and joy appeared in Liuli's golden eyes.

The corners of his mouth couldn't help but turn up slightly.

When Edelweiss saw the expression on Kong's face, he also showed a hint of doubt and then asked.

"What's wrong?"

Sora then gave Edelweiss a beautiful, angelic smile.

Then she slowly opened her pink lips and said.

"He's back."

Chapter 3: The First Manifestation of Honkai Energy!

In less than half a day, Shinguji Kuroko arrived in Tokyo from southern Kyushu.

Standing atop a skyscraper, Shinguji Kuroko's eyes gazed toward the Pacific Fleet far off the Far East coast.

'I wonder if Miohua's disappearance is a blessing or a curse...'

If Luo Mio were still in the Far East, she would definitely be the most capable person to stand in Tokyo and resist and drive out the Pacific Fleet. It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that she could single-handedly hold off an entire fleet.

But in contrast...

The U.S. will send even more and stronger combat forces!

After glancing at the Pacific Fleet, Shinguji Kuroko moved swiftly and arrived at the entrance of the air-raid shelter underground in Tokyo.

Because of the impending war, all residents of Tokyo were moved into air-raid shelters deep underground.

Here, Shinguji Kuroko saw the most important person in her life.

"Mother!"

A girl who looked quite similar to Shinguji Kuroko stood at the entrance of the air-raid shelter. When she saw Shinguji Kuroko, she ran over quickly and hugged her.
