After Kaede Hattori and Kappei Hattori's mother had finished her revelation, everyone was outraged and looked at Kaede Hattori's father, Aoyama Hattori.
Zhao Yao smiled and flicked his finger to activate his power of illusion. A green hat floated down and landed on Aoyama Hattori's head before anyone had the time to look at him.
With Zhao Yao's power of illusion, everyone was able to see the green hat, except the Hattori family.
Hideki Kujyo furrowed his brows. "This feeling of unease again… similar to the incident with Mr. Yamada, as if there is something in the air…"
It was as though lightning had struck and exploded something in Kaede Hattori's mind. He looked at his mother in disbelief. The crimson blood rays on his body pulsated violently.
Aoyama Hattori, with the green hat on his head, extended his finger and pointed at his wife beside him, his body trembling with rage.
Aoyama's wife felt that her body was no longer under her control and shouted immediately, "No, that's not true!"
However, another man who was under Zhao Yao's control came forward— the chauffeur Wang Sang. He said, "Master and Madam, extreme apologies. On that day, I was hiding in the room discreetly watching AV when the blackout happened. A man opened the door, rushed in and chased me out.
So the man who was with Madam on that day… was not me. He was the deceased Lord Matsuyama Hattori.
Young master Kaede is not your son. He is your brother."
Pooh! Aoyama Hattori spat out a mouthful of blood. Kaede Hattori took a few steps back. His face was shocked in a trancelike state.
"False." At this moment, another old woman, again under Zhao Yao's control, came forward. Aoyama Hattori looked at her and said fearfully, "Dearest mother."
Aoyama Hattori's mother said, "Aoyama, you are not related to Kaede because you are not your father's son. You are the son of my agent Matsuyoshi and I."
Bam! The green veins on Aoyama Hattori's head pulsated violently.
Everyone in the banquet hall was too distracted by this series of unexpected events to care about the wedding ceremony.
Everyone was drawn to the big show. To them, it was extremely surprising and exciting. It was a hundred times more entertaining than a wedding.
That was Zhao Yao's intention. In fact, the words from the manipulated people could be easily verified. Using this distraction as a means to stop the wedding was sufficient.
By the time the Hattori family verified the truth, Zhao Yao would have long completed the chain missions and dragged the Hattori family through the mud. The actual truth would not matter anymore.
"Enough!" Kaede Hattori roared. Following the outburst, blood-colored rays radiated from his body in all directions.
Everyone in the banquet hall felt as though they had been drenched by a pail of cold water. Goosebumps surfaced all over their bodies and unspeakable terror silenced them.
Kaede Hattori had already shown mercy. If he had exerted his full force, more than half of the guests would have been driven either to death or insanity by the terror.
After stunning everyone with this move, Kaede Hattori coldly said, "Mother and grandmother, you are too tired today. Because of neurasthenia, you are spouting nonsense. Hanzo, accompany them back home to rest."
Immediately, a Special Higher Police officer came forward and brought the two women away.
Next, Kaede Hattori looked at the chauffeur Wang Sang and said, "Wang, I know that you are a good person. Go back and rest a little."
Kaede Hattori had survived countless battles and devious schemes, so he was an experienced man. Using only a few words, he managed to pacify the crowd and control the situation.
He understood that someone was sabotaging the wedding. However, in such a short time, explaining the truth was not easy and the explanations could make matters worse. He let that option go. It was faster and more effective to use brute force to intervene.
The wedding had already become a farce and could not be finalized.
It was just Kaede Hattori's excuse for his plan, anyway. He slowly drifted towards Kappei Hattori and said, "Kappei, where is the ring that I gave you? Take it out. There are problems with the wedding so it will be an engagement instead. You and Nanako will be engaged today."
Kappei Hattori felt his heart beating at the same rhythm as Kaede Hattori's nearing footsteps. His body trembled with horror. He had no intention of resisting and took out an anti-radiation box from his chest.
Once the anti-radiation box opened, everyone's gaze locked onto the ring held by Kappei Hattori.
Inside the ring's settings were neither precious stones nor diamonds. They were not topaz, sapphire, jade or pearl. There was a strange mystical rock. Though it looked normal, it attracted the attention of all the apostles and supercats.
When the ring was taken out of the anti-radiation box, all apostles, especially the supercats, felt majestic energy fill the air. When inhaling said air, the supercats felt changes to their superpower that they had not felt for a long time.
"The Meteorite Fragments!"
"The Meteorite Fragments are set in the wedding ring."
"This feeling… confirms the rumours—The Meteorite Fragments can increase the power of supercats!"
Hideki Kujyo locked his gaze on the Meteorite Fragments ring and thought, "I wondered how long the Meteorite Fragments have been in the hands of the Hattori clan. The meteoric rise of Kaede Hattori could be the result of the Meteorite Fragments. They definitely used them to increase the power of Kaede's supercats."
Before eyes that were filled with greed, surprise, and envy, the Meteorite ring was slowly put on Nanako's finger.
The door of the banquet hall was kicked open and dozens of black-clad Americans marched inside in an orderly fashion.
The leader was a golden-haired man with a large muscular build. He was over two meters tall and his arms were as thick as thighs. He looked like the Titan giants from the legends. He looked down on all the Japanese.
