“Mr. Ra's, I agree with your ultimate view, which is that only by eliminating all sins can we usher in purity.”
Shimizu's firm gaze stared into the eyes of the Ninja Master.
“Do you really think so?”
The Ninja Master questioned.
He would not easily believe others, even if he wanted to—in his centuries of life, he had witnessed too much sin, deceit, and betrayal.
Of course, I don't agree!
“As I said, I only agree with the ultimate view, but not completely. At least, I don't agree with your way of shaping peace and purity.”
Shimizu seemed to be answering Ra's' question, but in fact, he was slowly pulling the initiative of the topic back into his own hands, so he continued:
“You have spent hundreds of years, possessed great power, and accumulated mountains of wealth, but I want to ask, compared to hundreds of years ago, has there been any change in the sins that exist in this world now?”
“No, or rather, the sins of today are even worse than before.”
Damn, this old man's will is very firm. He won't deny his past just because of a few words from me. He's not that easy to fool.
“But at least, you have worked hard for hundreds of years, but you have never succeeded, which means your method is wrong, at least not completely correct. It has some effect, but it's minimal.”
Shimizu also shook his head and said.
“Tell me, what are your thoughts?”
The Ninja Master didn't mind listening to Shimizu's opinion.
His daughter Talia, although she also inherited a part of his ambition and will, also has certain differences. Now she is also one of the candidates to inherit the League of Assassins.
“If you want to change this world, you must first control this world, at least a part of it, and become one of the most important and inseparable parts of this world, then you may be able to subvert this world from within.”
Shimizu looked at the Ninja Master and said solemnly.
If you control the whole world, then the luck of the whole world will definitely belong to you.
“Just like what you did in Gotham? Starting from the lowest level small gangs, growing step by step, then your next step is to control the entire underworld of Gotham, and use this as a starting point to eliminate the sins of Gotham?”
The Ninja Master said with interest.
“My next goal is indeed to unify the Gotham underworld.”
Shimizu replied.
“Prove to me that your method is correct. Gotham is a city of sin. Only by eliminating the sins of Gotham can you have the ability to eliminate the sins of the entire world.”
The Ninja Master took out a card from his pocket with an address recorded on it.
“From today onwards, you are one of the deputy leaders of the League of Assassins. This is the location of the members stationed in Gotham. They will now receive your leadership.”
The card was slapped on the table. The Ninja Master took a deep look at Shimizu, turned and left, leaving only the last sentence.
“Klee Water, don't let me down. I look forward to someone being able to inherit my position. You have that ability.”
Only a deputy leader… and there is also a suffix of 'one of'.
Shimizu was a little disappointed, but he quickly cheered up.
This old man has lived for hundreds of years, how could he be so easily fooled into handing over everything he controls to others?
Being able to get the position of deputy leader of the League of Assassins with just a few words is already a huge profit!
Shimizu watched the Ninja Master leave, actually focusing his attention on the panel.
Previously, synchronizing superpowers with the main body consumed a large amount of luck, causing the progress of luck to approach zero. Later, after the main body was promoted to Special Jonin, it recovered to about half of the previous level, reaching of the current progress bar.
Now the progress bar is climbing rapidly again, reaching , and is still slowly advancing.
“Tsk, rest for one night, there are still things to be busy with next.”
The League of Assassins' manpower in Gotham must first be brought under his control. Solomon Grundy's body needs to be studied to be made into a puppet. Then there is Nora, Mr. Freeze's wife. He still has to take them to the . Labs in Central City to use the equipment there for treatment and relief.
Rearranging the alarm mechanism in the room, Shimizu lay on the bed and turned off the lights.
… …
… …
Demon Slayer World.
Night, Mt. Fujikasane.
The cold sword light shone in the forest, accompanied by lightning and wind blades.
No mistake, one first, one inside, one appearance, one content, one look!
“Seventeenth.”
Shimizu carried a bamboo basket on his back, holding a Nichirin Blade with faint cyan patterns on the edge, and slashed off the head of a demon with one strike.
This sword is temporarily given according to the Breathing Techniques learned by the swordsmen participating in the selection, and is generally left by the Ghost Slayer Corps teammates who have sacrificed.
It has been a month since leaving Mt. Sagiri. In this month, he also successfully mastered the Constant Concentration Breathing under the guidance of Kuwajima Jigoro.
Being able to master the Constant Concentration Breathing basically means that at the very least, one can become a Kinoe-ranked swordsman, second only to the Pillars. Coming to Mt. Fujikasane, which is used for new recruit selection, is simply a dimensionality reduction strike.
“Sugoi! Another demon! Shimizu-kun!”
A Ghost Slayer Corps member with black parted short hair swallowed and followed behind Shimizu with his sword in both hands.
“Don't relax your vigilance, Murata. If some powerful demons appear, I may not be able to take care of you in time.”
Shimizu casually carried the back of his sword on his shoulder and strode forward.
“Impossible, Mt. Fujikasane is for new recruit selection, there will only be demons who have eaten one or two people. If something unexpected really happens, I should be able to protect myself, right?”
Murata said nervously.
Shimizu glanced at Murata and continued to walk forward.
When he met Murata, this guy was fighting fiercely with a demon.
A demon that looked very weak to Shimizu. The two sides fought evenly, and then that demon was easily killed by Shimizu with one strike.
After that, Murata decisively hugged his thigh and followed Shimizu all the way.
This guy seems to have become an official member of the Ghost Slayer Corps in the original timeline, and is Tanjiro's senior. Although he is not a genius, the fact that he can live to the end shows that he at least has the ability to become a qualified Ghost Slayer Corps swordsman.
If the demons in Mt. Fujikasane are all of that kind, it will be difficult for Murata to pass the Final Selection with his strength, but there is still a chance.
“I just don't know if we will encounter the Hand Demon.”
Shimizu muttered in his heart.
The Hand Demon is a mutated demon with Blood Demon Art, a power that only demons who have eaten at least dozens of people can possess.
