The moment Jilan touched Little Red Riding Hood Hamon Riding Hood with her arm, which had just emerged from a battle and was still wreathed in Ripple energy, the Hamon energy instinctively explored Little Red Riding Hood's body.
As the Hamon traveled through Little Red Riding Hood's body, Jilan sensed the residual traces of many drugs and compounds. It seemed that the person who carried out this research had little affection for this container and had used extremely violent methods to mix various drugs into her body, leaving traces of corrosion everywhere, from the stomach wall to the intestinal tract.
At first, Jilan was just curious about the differences between the bodies of androids and normal humans. However, Jilan was immediately surprised. Not only did he discover these differences in Little Red Riding Hood's body, but he also found something that made him feel as if it were predestined.
"... Why are there traces of 'Ambergris' on Little Red Riding Hood's body?" Jilan muttered to herself, somewhat bewildered.
Ambergris, this is what Jilan found in Isana's stomach. It contains infinite energy that can turn a person into an enormous whale. Although the traces left in Little Red Riding Hood's body show that the content of Ambergris is extremely low and that it is a liquid that has been diluted countless times, Jilan is still very shocked.
According to Jilan's speculation, the "Ambergris" in Isana's body is probably the reason why he is reluctant to go ashore, and it is highly likely to be related to the League of Villains and Dio.
This was an easy opportunity for Jilan to explore the effects of this Ambergris, an opportunity for Jilan to get closer to Dio's research over the years... After a brief moment of thought, Jilan decisively decided to use Little Red Riding Hood as his experimental subject, abandoning his idea of handing her over to Dark Shadow.
However, getting Little Red Riding Hood under control won't be easy. Putting aside the pursuers incited by the Dark Shadow Order, both the Dark Shadow and the League of Villains are major headaches for Jilan.
We must find a way to solve this problem.
What happened next wasn't complicated. Because Jilan and the others had been lingering there for a while, Ueno got a little impatient and sent them a message. Tsukimi Machi, having overheard their conversation, assumed that Jilan had intervened out of a desire to be a hero and rescue a damsel in distress. Blushing, she recounted how Jilan had saved the damsel in distress.
Then, Kaminari grabbed the microphone, and amidst the chaotic chatter of Minoru Mineta, Jilan listened to Kaminari's excited narration.
So... Kaminari and the others had already been in contact with Little Red Riding Hood. That saves me the trouble of making up an explanation...
Looking at the crowd of people who had collapsed at her feet, Jilan gradually formed an idea: to pretend to be the man who had grabbed Little Red Riding Hood and make contact with the Dark Shadow, using "Little Red Riding Hood" as bait to lure them into a trap...
Jilan didn't need to do much. With a similar build and blond hair to the man, she only needed to use Hamon to forcefully change the shape of her face and then wear his clothes to imitate him to a high degree.
Earlier, during the argument, the man also revealed his identity, trying to use his family's power to force those surrounding him to move aside. Although it didn't work, it actually benefited Jilan, making it easier for her to impersonate him.
His name is "Robin Hood".
Jilan had Ibara Shiozaki tie the group up with Vines and throw them onto the floor of the card room. Then, in the adjacent room filled with miscellaneous items, they found two large barrels filled with tobacco, which appeared to be used for magic shows. They lit all the tobacco in the room, creating thick smoke.
The room was completely sealed, so the smoke lingered for a long time, creating a thick fog that obscured visibility and also providing the conditions for a dust explosion that went unnoticed.
The script continued to unfold according to Jilan's plan. Perhaps Jilan's acting was too superb, because the impatient Alain didn't suspect Jilan's scheme to get something for nothing, and led his men headlong into the trap-filled card room...
The only thing that slightly surprised Jilan was that Himiko Toga was standing with the Dark Shadow's people, pointing her Toga. A look of surprise flashed across Jilan's face, but she quickly concealed it, and no one noticed. Along the way, Jilan kept trying to talk to Himiko Toga on the Dark Shadow's side. Although Toga Himeko ignored Jilan, the one who was tied up was extremely resentful, and in Toga's displeasure, she basically revealed everything about herself.
The uncle who was tied up and guarding the warehouse possessed the ability to create Clones of others... Jilan's plan to annihilate the Dark Shadow faction had quietly changed again.
Originally, in Plan A, Jilan was supposed to detonate the dust when everyone entered the card room. The power at that time would at least indiscriminately blast everyone into serious injury, and even Jilan herself would not be spared.
This plan is extremely risky. If any of them fail to enter the room, they could escape and report back to Dark Shadow Headquarters. Although Jilan would activate the Sheer Heart Attack at that time to hunt them down, it's still not a foolproof plan.
However, Jilan then had a new idea: to make the Dark Shadow believe from the bottom of their hearts that Little Red Riding Hood had been destroyed. This way, no one would die and no great cost would be paid, and it wouldn't matter if Alain and the others all survived.
The most crucial element of this Plan B was the old man guarding the warehouse, Twice.
Perhaps even the heavens were on Jilan's side. After confirming that Little Red Riding Hood wasn't in the room, Alain decisively sent several of his men to search other areas, giving Jilan room to escape. Although the old man Adams's question caught Jilan somewhat off guard, she still managed to throw the ignition source she was holding before they could act, and left via her chosen escape route just before the explosion.
Afterwards, Jilan rushed to the warehouse and, just as the two guards were about to ask Jilan why he had returned, suddenly attacked, knocked them down, and carried Twice to the meeting place he had agreed upon with Nakiri and the others—the staff break room of Kaminari and Minoru Mineta.
Incidentally, the disappearance of Toga's Clones wasn't due to the dust explosion, but rather because Jilan released her "Killer Queen" ability the instant she brushed past her, turning her into a bomb...
After all, Jilan didn't know Twice's Clones Quirk could be used simultaneously or only one Clones could exist at a time. The dust explosion's power was unpredictable because the door was open the whole time. In order to eliminate the potential threat, it was necessary to kill the Clones.
This series of actions basically achieved Jilan's goal, with only one place remaining that made Jilan suspicious.
Did Himiko Toga actually see herself make a move at that time?
