Chapter 337

Chapter 337: Chapter 336 Clearly, claiming that going to Japan to eradicate the Kitashin Ichi-Ryu Single Blade School was far-fetched, yet this time Cang Lang and others managed to kill the young Four Great Killing Kings from Kitashin, especially Ye Tianchen who had slain Sato, would inevitably shake the entire Kitashin Ichi-Ryu, and possibly even all of Japan.

Sato, as one of the ten Great Elders of the Kitashin Ichi-Ryu, held a high and influential position and was also particularly formidable, but being killed by Ye Tianchen this time meant an inevitable retaliation from Kitashin Ichi-Ryu, and China needed to seize this opportunity to kill all the incoming avengers.

"Tianchen, especially you, boy, having killed Sato, I fear this time the main retaliation from Kitashin Ichi-Ryu will be aimed directly at you!"

The supreme commander glanced at Ye Tianchen, voicing his concern, knowing that a talent like Ye Tianchen was rare and valuable for China.

"Don’t worry, my Thirteen Heavenly Kings weren’t formed for nothing, the stronger Kitashin Ichi-Ryu is, the better they serve as my sparring partners!" Ye Tianchen nodded as he spoke.

The commander nodded back, he truly admired Ye Tianchen, seeing a bit of the rogue and a hint of the domineering in this young man, especially when facing difficulties and formidable opponents, he never showed cowardice or fear, always wearing an innocuous smile.

"Commander, it’s also worth noting that Japan seems to have developed a genetic mutation drug that allows a person’s potential to burst forth instantly. If Japan uses this in war, it would be very disadvantageous for us!" Cang Lang recalled the genetic mutation drug Sato had used, feeling it was incredibly powerful. On the way back, Ye Tianchen had also briefed Cang Lang and others about Sato’s use of the genetic mutation drug, leaving them speechless with its immense power, it simply was not a mere increase in ability level.

"I’ve also heard of this genetic mutation drug; even though it can instantly increase a person’s combat ability, the side effects are severe, ranging from disability to immediate death. I didn’t expect Japan to be so cruel as to let their own people use it, whatever the cost!" the commander furrowed his brow as he spoke.

It must be said that the genetic mutation drug developed by Japan was indeed a significant breakthrough, but it was extremely cruel and bloody, relying on burning the body’s own life force to instantly elevate it to a higher level, significantly increasing combat power, jumping several levels of strength, but such draining of life force, at a lighter level, could shorten lifespan, while at a heavier level, like Sato, they would end up consuming themselves without even a corpse left, truly mutilating.

The ruthlessness of the Japanese was extreme, for they would stop at nothing to achieve certain benefits and goals, even if it meant sacrificing those closest to them; should a day come when war again erupts, if all Japanese soldiers used this genetic mutation drug at the same time, how could such an inhuman force be countered? It would definitely become a problem for China and even the world.

"Basically, these rascals are brutal, sacrificing their own people is like routine for them!" Han Jie also furrowed her brow as she spoke.

"I think we could share this with the U.S,, as it currently stands as the world’s premier superpower. Why not leverage their strength to suppress Japan and halt the production of this genetic mutation drug, just like not allowing Japan to have nuclear weapons?" Ye Tianchen pondered aloud.

Upon hearing Ye Tianchen’s words, both Cang Lang and Han Jie were enlightened, they were still quite surprised; Ye Tianchen, young and seemingly unschooled, had managed to come up with such a strategy in such a short time, using borrowed force to stop Japan’s development of the genetic mutation drug without affecting China—indeed a clever plan.

In today’s world, the U.S. aimed to be a hegemonic nation, not allowing any country to surpass its strength, while Japan, since its defeat, had been suppressed continuously, re

"Hei Wa, hello!" Unable to hold back, Cang Lang said as he shook his head.

"Eh? I..." Hei Mian almost choked on his blood. Even Cang Lang, usually so serious, was now using his nickname, truly showing how much Ye Tianchen’s influence had affected him.

"Don’t be so down, Hei Wa suits you..." Ye Tianchen said, feigning sympathy as he patted Hei Mian on the shoulder.

Shwoo!

Hei Mian was already quite annoyed with Ye Tianchen, especially since Ye Tianchen had hogged all the limelight recently, overshadowing even him, a warrior of the Heavenly Gang Level. Now the nickname "Hei Wa" had spread everywhere, and he found himself speechless.

Bang!

Ye Tianchen and Hei Mian clashed fists, both standing motionless on the spot. Hei Mian was fuming, while Ye Tianchen was all smiles. Cang Lang quickly stood between them, preventing any further escalation. If these two were to fight here, it would be a serious issue, especially in this place where strict penalties were the norm.

"Calm down, kid! This is the chief’s office!" Cang Lang said sternly.

Hei Mian glared fiercely at Ye Tianchen. The last time they wrestled, Hei Mian had lost, and he had been seething ever since, unwilling to admit defeat. However, during their fist exchange just now, he felt a powerful force he hadn’t felt before when fighting with Ye Tianchen. Could it be that Ye Tianchen had substantially increased his strength in just a few days?

In fact, Hei Mian’s intuition was right. Ye Tianchen’s strength had indeed increased significantly after his fierce battle with Sato, during which he had gained a lot of combat skill, especially as Sato had become incredibly strong and ferocious from a large dose of mutant genetic drugs. This experience had given Ye Tianchen a brush with death and some valuable practical experience.

Ye Tianchen was someone whose strength grew with the challenge, and the stronger his enemy, the stronger he became. Coupled with a life-and-death situation and the unique synergy between his physique and that of Zhang Ruotong, his physical body had advanced to a new level, and the superpower in his body had greatly increased. If not for the constraints of Earth’s rules of transformation, he would have already broken through to the Emperor level—a league of difference in power.

After giving Ye Tianchen one final furious look, Hei Mian turned and walked into the office building. Cang Lang, at a loss, glanced at the two as Ye Tianchen and Han Jie both burst into laughter. Hei Mian’s dark face, especially when he was grinding his teeth, made him look even darker, showing only a row of white teeth, reminiscent of a young boy from Africa.

After leaving Zhongnanhai, Ye Tianchen went straight home. At home, there were two women giving him a headache, and he wondered how they were managing to stir things up.

One was Alice and the other was Qi Ruxue. Both women could really cause a scene and it was uncertain what kind of situation had arisen.

Thinking about this, Ye Tianchen really felt like not going home. After some consideration, he decided to go straight back to the villa instead. Taking out his phone, he noticed it was out of battery. He wasn’t sure if Wuxue and the others were at the villa. The Thirteen Heavenly Kings had only been formed recently, and there were many things that needed to be perfected, especially boosting everyone’s strength, with the impending retaliation from the Beitian One Blade School. Ye Tianchen wanted to use this opportunity to train the Thirteen Heavenly Kings and strengthen their abilities. (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for it on Qidian.com.
