Crossover Anime: Starting with Destroying Kengan

"To facilitate obtaining firsthand information about my body during future interactions and to satisfy my curiosity."

"As for the present, let's start by dealing with these 'other monitors,' help Igarashi Yato get rid of these eyesores, further curry favor, and also give the higher-ups an explanation."

After the assistant left the room, Yingchu tapped her fingers on the table, lost in thought.

……

The next day, at 9:00 AM.

Yato arrived at the entrance of a company.

A female employee dressed as a secretary was clearly waiting there, having received orders well in advance.

"plz follow me."

With that, they led him to the top floor of the building.

It was a huge office that took up half a floor.

With floor-to-ceiling windows on all four sides, you can enjoy a panoramic view of the surrounding area from every angle.

Like a watchtower.

"Welcome to my company, Narukami Company."

The blonde girl sat behind the desk, her petite figure seeming out of place in the excessively large office; everything here seemed a size too big for her.

It gives the impression of a child playing with an adult's belongings.

Even so, Narukami Torahatsu was having a great time.

She twirled a tuft of blonde hair in her fingers, watching Yato enter the office with a smile in her eyes.

"The Narukami clan's corporation? Given your family's style, I thought you would be hiding in some century-old house in the countryside, getting involved in this steel jungle behind the scenes."

Yato glanced at them casually a few times before looking away.

“Living in a place like that all the time will make you moldy.”

Ming Shen Hu Chun disagreed.

"And then? I'm already here, what's the next step?"

Yato didn't have time to chat with the other party.

The hidden mission released by the system yesterday offered 'wins = attributes' as the reward.

While high attributes don't guarantee a win, they are certainly not a bad thing.

He was getting a little tired of always fighting battles where he was at a disadvantage in terms of attributes.

This is a golden opportunity to get out of our current predicament.

In addition, there is another point that Yato is quite concerned about.

That's the hidden quest, "[Turn into Calamity!]", which is specifically marked as "Phase One".

Does this mean there will be a 'second phase' and a 'third phase' later?

Will the success or failure of the first phase affect the arrangement of subsequent tasks?

These are still uncertain.

However, considering the penalties, an evaluation can be obtained after completing the task.

Even without the attribute rewards, Yato would still try his best to get a high rating, and then exchange it for some priceless collectibles in the special shop.

"Since you can't wait any longer, let's go... By the way, you're dressed quite flamboyantly today, especially your hat."

Narukami Torahatsu stood up, glanced at Yato a few times, and chuckled softly, covering his mouth.

"Thank you for the compliment."

Yato pulled down the brim of his hat, a faint smile playing on his lips.

Today he wore the 'One Piece straw hat', paired with a Hawaiian long-sleeved shirt, cropped pants, and canvas shoes. Not only did it not look out of place, but it also looked inexplicably stylish.

This isn't about showing off or anything, nor is it a whim.

Instead, we're going to meet another person in charge of the Far East branch of the [育] (a type of insect) organization, which means we're going to their lair.

Just to be on the safe side, he took out the 'Pirate King's straw hat' and put it on.

In this way, when using Conqueror's Haki, a portion of the spiritual power hidden in the hat, similar to that of Wang Yang, will also be drawn out.

Although it is said to be uncontrollable, when that time comes, whether it is controllable or not will not matter; ensuring one's own safety is the most important thing.

The two arrived at the helipad outside the office.

A civilian helicopter is parked here.

The propellers spun rapidly, making a loud noise, and the airflow stirred up a lot of dust.

When Yato gets close, you have to hold onto your straw hat tightly to avoid it being blown away.

"Where are we going? We actually need this kind of transportation."

"It's not far, it's just to save time."

"And you said I was flamboyant..."

Yato was somewhat speechless at the girl's matter-of-fact attitude.

I boarded the plane, and about ten minutes later...

Arrive at Edogawa Ward, located in the easternmost part of Tokyo.

Yato's only impression of this area was that the Koiwa area was home to a large number of Chinese and Indian people, and it was separated from Chiba by only a river, so it didn't have a good reputation in the metropolitan area.

The helicopter eventually landed in the Xiaoyan area, on a plaza that looked like a large factory.

"Xia Ji is an exceptionally easy person to deal with, yet also an exceptionally difficult one."

After getting off the plane, Narukami Torahatsu suddenly said something.

"Oh?"

A strange light flashed in Yato's eyes.

"The cadres of the [insect] may seem to be of the same rank, but in reality, not every cadre can become a branch head and manage an entire region."

Narukami Toharu walked ahead, talking as he went.

"The Far East branch doesn't have a branch leader yet, but Xia Ji, who has gained a foothold with my help, already meets the requirements to become the Far East branch leader."

Chapter 138

The tentacles of the insects have long covered most of the world's economically developed regions, and even in underdeveloped countries, they have planted seeds of poisonous insects. The power of a branch leader of such an organization is far beyond imagination.

It's important to know that the 'Far East' includes more than just Japan; it also includes China, North Korea, South Korea, the Philippines, Malaysia, Indonesia, and other countries.

"Wait a minute, doesn't this make sense? Does Xia Ji have the ability and qualifications to sit in this position?"

Yato was surprised.

"In terms of ability, he's certainly not up to par, but in terms of qualifications, that's another story."

There was a hint of amusement in Narukami Torahatsu's tone.

"Did you know that there are many factions within the [Insect]? One of them is called the [Insect Group]?"

Insect group?

Yato's pupils contracted slightly.

Using an organization's name as the name of a faction is not something to be taken lightly.

"You mean, Xia Ji has the support of the [Insect Group]?"

“Yes, the Insect Group is the real manager of the Far East. The branch manager is just their spokesperson. You think Xia Ji doesn’t have the ability, and that’s right… That’s exactly the kind of person they need.”

Narukami Torahiro revealed a sarcastic smile.

"Loyalty, obedience, and just barely adequate ability are enough; Xia Ji fits the bill perfectly."

"If I were to take him down, how would the [Insect Group] react?"

Yato asked the pointed question.

"Who knows?" Narukami Torakazu spread his hands and said indifferently, "If I could determine their reaction, I wouldn't have to worry about how to deal with Xia Ji."

This is true.

Yato nodded in agreement.

Although Narukami Torahiro is young, she is extremely cunning and scheming. On the other hand, Xia Ji is just a puppet put forward by the Insect Group, so how could he be her match?

The reason for their inaction is simply that they are waiting for the right opportunity to test the waters.

"This is it."

Narukami Torahatsu suddenly stopped.

Yato remained silent.

They are now at the entrance of a warehouse.

Five suspicious men dressed in plain clothes, who looked like gangsters, were guarding the entrance.

Limb placement and overall posture.

It gave Yato a feeling that was both familiar and unfamiliar.

Can't go wrong.

It is an ancient martial art.

Moreover, it's a legitimate Chinese faction.

In traditional Japanese martial arts, there is a saying called "standing on bones," which means that by supporting the body with bones, one can become more stable and grounded, and then fully utilize the skills learned.

In ancient Chinese martial arts, there is also a type of training called "standing meditation".

When you practice stance training to a certain level, your feet will be firmly rooted to the ground, and you can generate power from the ground at any time. The realm of external harmony will be achieved naturally, and the power of your moves will greatly increase. It will no longer be just a fancy move or routine. Only at this point can you be considered a true martial artist.

Without exception, all of the gatekeepers in front of us are martial artists.

And it's not weak at all.

Everyone carries the scent of blood.

His eyes were cold, like a machine's, devoid of any emotion.

Especially the scarred leader.

The feeling he gave Yato was in no way inferior to that of Duma, who had once served as the captain of the second division of the Royal Guard.

"The teacher is waiting for you inside."

Scarface said, then stepped aside.

This action, however, did not show much courtesy; instead, it carried a faint sense of coercion, as if to say, "Get in here."

Yato suddenly laughed.

"Let's go."

Before Narukami Torahatsu could react.

He then strode confidently into the factory gate.

"..."

After they went inside, a solemn expression appeared on Scarface's face.

"Boss, that person is not simple."

One of his subordinates whispered.

His expression was somewhat horrified.

The others weren't much better off; some were even sweating profusely.

"Not simple? You don't need to tell me. Among the disciples under our master, including myself, not one of them can defeat him."
