United States, Los Angeles.
A helicopter flew from afar, landing on the top of a hundred-story commercial building in the city center.
Ladli stepped off the helicopter, crossed the helipad, and took the elevator to the top-floor office.
"The plan failed."
Looking at the man standing in the office, Ladli reported, "Tatsuma's strength is more astonishing than expected."
"He defeated Katerea, Walburga, and those two Arrancar from Hueco Mundo by himself."
"Even the White Dragon Emperor, who joined the battlefield later and activated Juggernaut Drive, was not his match."
"A bunch of useless things." Shahryar snorted coldly, dissatisfied with this result.
He had sent Ladli to personally lead the team to assist, with the goal of disrupting the Three Factions Conference.
Devil, Angel, Fallen Angel.
These three forces belonging to the Bible God mythology have been in a state of hostility with Deva for a long time.
As one of the leaders of the Deva remnants, Shahryar did not wish for the success of these peace talks in any sense. However, since things had come to this, no amount of dissatisfaction was useful.
"Raise the Red Dragon Emperor's danger level by one rank, placing him alongside Ajuka Beelzebub and Sirzechs Lucifer as the highest-level Devils."
"I've already done that."
Ladli replied, then took out a metal sphere from her pocket.
"By the way, I collected some data on the Red Dragon Emperor. Although it's not comprehensive, it can be used as a reference for creating targeted weapons."
"Well done." Shahryar nodded in satisfaction.
Compared to those useless people from the Khaos Brigade, his sister was more reliable.
Taking the metal sphere, Shahryar pondered for a moment before asking, "How are things in the Mediterranean?"
Ladli raised her hand and snapped her fingers, projecting several images onto the wall.
"It's very chaotic. The appearance of the Fourth Primogenitor's ruins in the Human World has attracted a lot of attention."
"Japan's Lion King Agency, the Vermillion Empire's royalty, and the Aldegyr Kingdom royalty have jointly formed an exploration team."
"The Caruana Faction vampires, who have always been in seclusion, received the news and sent special agents to the territories of the Three Primogenitors to request an alliance."
"Excluding the Second Primogenitor, the First Primogenitor and the Third Primogenitor have both accepted the invitation and have begun to act."
"Furthermore, the Hero Faction of the Khaos Brigade is also interested in the Fourth Primogenitor and has sent people to the Island of Gozo with the Crimson Princess of Vermillion Empire."
"To be honest, there are a few too many forces currently gathered on Island of Gozo. It will be difficult for us to snatch the Fourth Primogenitor from so many people."
"Even if it's difficult, we still have to snatch him." Shahryar fell into contemplation.
The Fourth Primogenitor was related to the Cleansing and Deva's legacy. If they couldn't get him, it would affect the subsequent plan to restore Deva.
"Contact the United States government and have them send the holder of Unknown Dictator over."
"Also, regarding Toichiro, go and sound out his intentions. If he wants to break free from the Red Dragon's control, send the Order of the End to assist him."
Time passed, and in the blink of an eye, it was the next day.
Just as various forces received the news, were once again shocked by Tatsuma's strength, and began to take action.
Tatsuma, the person involved, had returned to his daily routine and arrived at the Akatsuki Headquarters.
Upon receiving his summons, Satoru and Toichiro arrived at the conference room early in the morning.
With a white trait placed on each of them, Satoru and Toichiro successfully unlocked their traits.
"Is this the so-called awakening? It's even more impressive than I imagined."
Feeling the surge in strength within his body, Toichiro pondered for a moment and looked at Tatsuma.
"Leader, I have something to report."
"Yesterday, Ladli, the Executive Director of MAR, contacted me. She wants to recruit me to join MAR."
"MAR? interesting."
Tatsuma raised an eyebrow, his interest piqued. "What conditions did they offer?"
"The position of MAR Operations Director, armor that can greatly enhance psychic abilities, and a potion that can improve physical strength and grant the bloodline of a dragon."
"Oh... that's quite a generous offer."
Satoru, standing nearby, let out a sigh of admiration.
MAR was not an ordinary company.
As the largest arms company in the world, MAR was also involved in various industries such as medicine and food.
Rich enough to rival a nation, that's what a super large conglomerate like MAR was.
If one could become the MAR Operations Director, setting aside other things, at least they would be well-off for the rest of their lives, and their connections in all aspects would be maximized.
Of course, in addition to the position of Operations Director, the other two conditions offered by MAR were equally astonishing.
"Armor that enhances psychic energy, and a potion to gain the bloodline of a dragon."
"Although I've long heard that MAR is not simple, I didn't expect them to have things like this."
Toichiro casually explained, "MAR has Deva behind it. It's not strange for them to create anything."
Satoru asked, "Deva? That Deva from another world?"
"Yes."
"This is the first time I've heard this."
A thoughtful look appeared on Satoru's face.
As the head of one of the three great sorcerer clans, and the strongest modern Jujutsu sorcerer, Satoru had learned many things that ordinary people didn't know through various channels.
For example... other worlds really existed.
Like the Deva that Toichiro just mentioned, they were a race from another world.
However, unlike forces from other worlds like Soul Society, which tended to maintain world order and were not involved in worldly affairs, Deva had extremely vast ambitions and had always tried to dominate the world and place themselves above others.
Because of this, Deva started fighting with the Bible mythology as soon as they arrived in this world.
As for the final result...
Recalling a rumor he had heard, Satoru looked at Toichiro. "I heard that nearly two-thirds of Deva was wiped out by the Bible God. Is that true?"
Toichiro replied, "I've also heard that rumor, but I'm not sure if it's true or false."
He didn't know much more about Deva than Satoru did.
The reason he knew about the connection between MAR and the Deva was that his former base of operations was in the United States.
At that time, Claw hadn't been smashed by Tatsuma yet, and they had some secret cooperation with MAR. After many times of cooperation, he learned some inside information, but that was all.
"MAR President Shahryar is a very arrogant person. I met him once, and I could feel that he looked down on me from the bottom of his heart."
Satoru was stunned. "That exaggerated?"
Toichiro nodded. "In fact, their contacting me privately this time surprised me. With their arrogant personalities, they shouldn't have contacted a failure like me."
Speaking of this, Toichiro looked at Tatsuma, who hadn't spoken yet. "Leader, what do you think about this?"
Tatsuma said, "Does that even need thinking? It's nothing more than Deva having a big move coming up and lacking manpower."
"But I didn't expect Deva to poach people from me. Am I considered someone easy to bully in the eyes of other forces?"
"No, no, no, how is that even possible?"
Satoru waved his hand and replied, "With the way you kill, unless Deva's people are blind, it's impossible for them to think you're easy to bully."
Tatsuma tilted his head. "Then why did they dare to poach my person?"
Satoru thought for a moment and said, "It should be because Toichiro's situation is quite special. Unlike others, he was forcibly subdued by you with force, so it's inevitable that he's not completely convinced."
Tatsuma looked to the side. "Is that so?"
Toichiro quickly shook his head. "Leader, don't listen to his nonsense. I am very convinced."
After saying this, Toichiro turned his head and glared at Satoru, signaling him not to talk nonsense.
Had this guy never been beaten or what?
He was inexplicably spreading rumors about him.
If it caused Tatsuma to misunderstand and get beaten again, wouldn't that be getting beaten for nothing?
Toichiro said, "Leader, I think the main reason is the stance."
"Deva and the Devils have always been in a state of hostility, and the relationship between them is not good."
"The likelihood of them sending someone to poach me is that they want to weaken your combat power and target you."
Satoru thought for a moment and said, "That's possible. Tatsuma, what are you planning to do?"
Tatsuma let out a light chuckle. "That's a strange question. Deva not only sent people to trouble me but also tried to poach my person behind my back. What I'm going to do... isn't it obvious?"
Satoru: ?
Satoru suddenly had a bad premonition.
Thinking carefully, Deva's actions were almost no different from the Jujutsu higher-ups before.
Tatsuma isn't the type to swallow his anger. If someone causes him trouble, what he will do next goes without saying.
However...
"Tatsuma, don't mess around."
"MAR is different from Claw, it's not a terrorist organization."
Tatsuma asked with a smile, "Are the Jujutsu higher-ups a terrorist organization?"
Satoru reminded him, "But the Jujutsu higher-ups and MAR are not on the same level."
The former is just a small force in Japan specifically for cleaning up Cursed Spirits.
The latter is a world-class large company with industries spread all over the world.
"If you rashly kill the MAR President, it will cause a worldwide impact, and might even attract the attention of some Gods."
"Wouldn't that be even better?"
Tatsuma didn't care about this. He was different from his past self, he had already passed the time when he needed to develop.
Holding two Rainbow traits, eight gold traits, and numerous red traits, his current strength, even looking at the entire world, is absolutely among the top tier.
