Chapter 164: The Way to Deal With Problem Students - Beat to Death!
"Kawaki-sama, let me do it. Hyakka is better at this kind of work," A Hyakka member said.
"Then I can only leave it to you," Kawaki replied helplessly, and then turned to look at Jiraia who had been silent all the time. He narrowed his eyes and said, "Also, it's best if you spit out the things in your mouth right now. If you dare to use those things to hurt my... employees, I will be very distressed."
After saying that, Kawaki stretched out his hand in front of Jiraia and said, "Spit it, hurry up. Otherwise, I can only use some violence."
"Hmph." Jiraia snorted and then spat out the silver needle hidden in his mouth into Kawaki's hand.
"It's really amazing to be able to hide such a sharp thing in your mouth. You will definitely be very popular if you perform acrobatics." Kawaki chuckled and said. Then, he took the handkerchief handed over by a Hyakka member and put away the silver needle.
"It's useless. No matter what you do, it's useless." Jiraia continued, "Let Tsukuyo come."
"About this..." Kawaki frowned, "This request was originally quite easy to complete, but now it's really a bit difficult... Because Tsukki is on holiday today."
"Don't look at me like that. You should investigate this matter first, right?" Kawaki complained, "The current Hyakka is different from how you were back then. Right now, under my suggestion, Hyakka is operating on a rotation system. After all, the system that you have to work for 365 days a year is really too inhumane! They are also humans, right? They also need to rest, right?"
"Oh? Did Hyakka become something like a child playing house in your hands?" Jiraia sneered and said disdainfully.
"You are not allowed to insult Kawaki-sama and Hyakka!" The Hyakka member said.
"And what do you know about Kawaki-sama!!" The other Hyakka member shouted.
"Well, it doesn't matter." Kawaki stopped the two Hyakka members who were about to rush forward.
"How can you say child playing house?" Kawaki continued to explain, "Work should be a combination of work and rest. Work without a holiday is incomplete! The current Hyakka can be said to be the best unit with the highest salary and benefits in the entire Edo!"
Jiraia ignored Kawaki's nonsense and looked at the door behind him. To be precise, he was looking at the sunlight through the gap in the door.
"I didn't expect to see the real sun in Yoshiwara." Jiraia sighed slightly and then looked up at Kawaki, who was still smiling with his eyes narrowed, "Is this the change you brought to Yoshiwara?"
"The sun." Kawaki tilted his head and rested his chin on his hand. He thought for a moment and then said, "This can't be said to be my credit. After all, the sun has always been hanging in the sky. I just stabbed a hole in the thick ceiling."
"If that was the case, Yoshiwara would not have become like this."
"Humans are creatures that chase after the sun. They are weak creatures that will die without the sun." Kawaki continued, "Even if the sky is blocked, I have to admit that the people living in this underground city are still constantly enjoying the benefits brought by the sun and even the air you breathe."
"No one can survive without the sun. Even Old Man Housen had to admit that even a race who hated the sun depends on the sun. Of course, that old man also liked the sun, right? After all, no matter what race it was, an old man should like to bask in the sun.
"If Housen heard these words, I wonder what he would think," Jiraia replied with a chuckle.
At this time, the uncle who was outside Yoshiwara's entrance, holding a parasol and lying on a lounge chair to enjoy the afternoon nap, suddenly sneezed, "Which stinky brat is talking bad about this old man behind his back?"
...
"I see..." Kawaki put down the game handle and stood up, "Looks like I have to personally ask him for help this time."
"But do you really not need to tell Chief and Hinowa about Jiraia?" This Hyakka member asked a little puzzled.
"Even if you ask me, I don't know what to do." Kawaki sighed, "That's why I hope to get information about this man from Zenzou and judge what to do."
"But, wouldn't it be faster to ask Hinowa directly?"
"That woman is too smart. As long as I ask her, she will be able to guess." Kawaki explained, "So, let's take a detour. When I fought with that man, all the movements that man showed were telling me that he was related to ninjas. So, it is better to ask the former leader of Oniwabanshuu, Zenzou Hattori."
"Also, that man's eyes..." Kawaki hesitated to speak, "Forget it, I'll investigate it myself. I'll leave Yoshiwara to you guys for now. You guys have to work hard."
"Yes!"
...
Tengantsuu Okuni's house.
At this time, Zenzou and the girl named Okuni were sitting on the roof. Okuni was eating pizza while looking at the latest Jump that Zenzou brought.
"It's really incredible. I, who hold the Tengantsuu can foresee anything, can't predict the Jump plot development." Okuni said as she looked at the Jump.
"Oh, is that so?" Zenzou sat on the side eating pizza while replying.
"Yes, I can't read it at all. I can't foresee it either. Is Maison de penguin going to be dropped or is it going to survive?" Okuni replied, but her eyes were still staring at the jump in his hand.
"Is this what you mean?"
"It's really interesting." Okuni smiled and looked at Zenzou, "Can you bring it to me next time? It's hard for me to go out. I can't buy it."
"The next time I come is the time to kidnap you," Zenzou said casually.
"If that's the case, then bring the shoujo manga next time." Okuni did not mind Zenzou's words and continued, "The Nannies only let me read Jump, saying that the shoujo mangas recently are too full of Smut."
"Aren't you going to run away?"
"It's no use even if you run away. Even if I don't have Tengantsuu, I can still see it." Okuni was still looking at the Jump in her hand, "My future path..."
"I see. It seems to be very powerful." Kawaki's voice came from behind the two, "But I don't know if that so-called Tengantsuu predicted that I would come here?"
"You!" Zenzou turned to look at Kawaki, who was smiling with an umbrella in hand, "Why are you here?"
"I need your help with something," Kawaki replied.
