PS: Thank you to "Little White Senator" for his precious monthly votes. Thank you to "nykfany", "The Boring Lord", and "Crimson Moon Lily" for their tips.
"Sh * t, this is a threat, a blatant threat." In a small conference room in the American Ministry of National Defense, the chief inspector, the new president, the minister of defense, the minister of foreign affairs, and other important department heads and strategists were gathered to discuss the conditions that Michelle had conveyed. During this time, the old white man named Thorndike was stomping his feet and cursing.
"I know, buddy, but we can't risk the fate of our country," a man in his forties comforted him.
"Then we agree to the request of those monsters!?" Thorndike glared at the man and roared.
"Of course not," the man said firmly.
"Hmph." Thorndike glanced at the man and snorted, then sat down quietly.
"The main issue now is not whether we should agree to their request, but how likely is their threat. That's the key to everything," a white-haired old man said in a deep voice. Then, he turned to the female communications officer standing beside him and asked, "Have you found any information on those people?"
"Some, but not much," the female communications officer replied quickly. Then, she flipped open the information board in her hand and lowered her head to report. "So far, we've only found information on two people. One of them is the leader of those terrorists.
"According to the information we got from Japan, the leader's name is Sei Itō, and he's a Lv7 superpower user. We know that he has psychokinesis, teleportation, and the ability to discharge electricity, but we don't know if he has any other abilities. Unknown age, unknown origin, unknown past information … "
Hearing the female communications officer's words. Most of the people present unconsciously frowned.
"The second person is this person." The female communications officer walked to the projector and projected Chris's photo on the white screen. "Chris, born in Nevada, enlisted in the army in 1938, and was originally a pilot in the XXX Air Force. During the war with Japan, he was shot down by the Japanese superpower team. Due to a head injury, he awakened psychic abilities and escaped the enemy's pursuit. He successfully returned to the country half a year later …"
Next was the information on Chris's post from the time he returned to the country to the time he left America.
"… Before he disappeared, he was the captain of the [Freedom Bell], a superpower team stationed in Japan. His rank was Colonel," the female officer said after she finished reading all of Chris's information.
"Traitor!" The female communications officer had just finished speaking. Thorndike scolded.
"Two level 7 espers, and one of them is an original esper from our country. How ironic." Another female official mocked herself.
"Now tell me, how likely do you think they are to launch a nuclear attack on our country?" President Duncan asked.
As soon as this was said, everyone looked at each other, not knowing how to answer.
"Minister Swett." Seeing that no one answered, President Duncan looked at the Minister of Defense and called out.
"I'm not sure, but judging from the technological prowess displayed by the other party, I'm sure they're very strong. We can't rule out the possibility that the other party has a nuclear bomb in their hands, so if they want to, we can't rule out the possibility that they will launch a nuclear attack on our country, "Minister Swett replied.
"…" Hearing this, Duncan fell silent. After a moment, he looked up at everyone present and said, "Now let's vote. Do we decide to compromise with the other party's conditions or resist to the end?"
"Agree to the other party's conditions. Those who are willing to pay the price, please raise your hand, "President Duncan said.
As soon as he finished speaking, three officials, two men and one woman, raised their hands.
President Duncan looked at the three and nodded. "It seems that no one agrees to compromise. If that's the case …"
"I order, immediately send out the combat teams of XXX Base, XXX Base, and XXX Base, as well as the drones, to the White House and launch an attack on that strange humanoid machine," President Duncan ordered with a serious expression.
"Yes, sir." The Minister of Defense stood up and responded.
"Also, notify all level 7 espers on standby. They must arrive at the scene within ten seconds of the battle. Eliminate Sei Itō and Chris, "President Duncan continued to order.
"Yes, sir." Another white old man responded.
"Let's begin," President Duncan said.
Then, everyone who received the order immediately got busy, contacting the various military bases and espers to prepare for action.
…
"Will those guys agree to your request?" Karin's voice came from the loudspeaker of the [Red Lotus Sacred Heavenly Eight Extreme Style].
"No, as long as there is such a threat once, there will be a second time. As a world esper and military power, America will definitely not accept such a threat. So, whether it is for the purpose of protecting national secrets or national security, they will definitely send a large number of troops to annihilate us," Sei Itō replied with a smile.
"Then why did you make such a request?" Karin asked in confusion.
"I made this request just to delay some time." Ito Sei laughed. "That's right. Then, he contacted Sakuraba Sei's communicator and asked, "How's the situation on your side?"
"We haven't found him yet," Sakuraba Sei replied.
"Is that so? Find him as soon as possible. That guy is now a very important bargaining chip, "Sei Itō replied.
"Got it," Sakuraba Sei replied.
After cutting off the communication, Sei Itō had a thought and released the [Blue Heresy] that was in standby mode.
"Is it finally time for me to make an appearance?" Veletta's voice came from the loudspeaker of the [Blue Heresy].
"Yes." Sei Itō looked up at the [Blue Heresy] Gundam and smiled, "So go and prepare."
"Got it." Veletta smiled and then activated the [Blue Heresy] Gundam. She walked slowly into the courtyard of the White House and found a secluded corner to squat down. Then, she placed the weapon that was temporarily separated from her back on the ground and adjusted the angle to the sky.
Not long after Veletta was ready. A large number of black dots suddenly appeared in the sky from the southwest, northeast, and south of the White House and quickly approached the White House.
"They are here. There are 130 of them, "Karin reported from the communicator.
"Please." Sei Itō smiled.
"Watch me," Karin said confidently.
"Hmph." Hearing Karin's words, Veletta snorted and controlled the [Heresy] Gundam to accurately adjust the muzzle. She then fired the first shot at one of the planes that was within her shooting range.
Whoosh! A green laser beam was shot out from Veletta's muzzle. In the blink of an eye, it hit the bottom of the plane and penetrated through the body of the plane. It came out from the back of the plane and hit the wing of another plane.
Boom! Boom! Then, two explosions sounded in the sky. A large fireball appeared in the sky and lit up the dark night sky.
"Damn it." Karin cursed when she saw that her first kill was stolen. She immediately increased the speed of [Red Lotus Sacred Heavenly Eight Extreme Style] to the maximum. She turned into a stream of light and dashed into the group of planes. Then, she shot out the iron claw with the steel cable in her left hand. It swept across the group of planes like a long whip.
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! In an instant, a large number of explosions sounded in the sky. A few bright fireballs appeared in the sky. They lit up the sky as if it was daytime.
Seeing this, Villeta smiled and didn't say anything. She pulled the trigger again and fired.
"You guys …" Sei Itō shook his head and sighed as he looked at the two who seemed to have entered a state of competition. Then, his expression changed and he turned to look at the empty street not far away.
The next moment. With a tremor in the air, three men and two women with superpowers appeared on the street.
"It really is a large force. The current Level 7 superpower in America has actually appeared. " Looking at the five people who suddenly appeared, Sei Itō, who had already learned about the Level 7 superpower in America from Chris, thought to himself.
"This is the guy?" Among the five, a woman wearing a black tank top, a brown long-sleeved shirt, a denim miniskirt, and brown high-strapped leather boots said casually. Her black hair was tied into a ponytail, and her skin was the color of chocolate. She was chewing something in her mouth.
"That's right, it's him." Another brown-haired man wearing a white casual T-shirt, gray casual trousers, and white sneakers looked down at the photo in his hand and nodded to confirm.
"How do we split it?" A skinny black man with curly hair looked at Ito Sei and Clarkson. He was wearing a black T-shirt, a black tracksuit jacket, and matching tracksuit pants.
"I don't care what you think, but this is an order from the top, so it's best if we work together." A white man with a more rigid face frowned and said.
"Hey, what do you say?" The mixed-race woman turned to look at the yellow-skinned woman beside her. She was wearing a gray long-sleeved top and gray sportswear pants. Her black hair was tied into a ponytail, and she wore a pair of frameless glasses. She was playing with her phone at the moment.
"Whatever, as long as we can finish the mission as soon as possible. I still have a boss to fight later." The woman said.
"Tsk." The woman curled her lips and said unhappily.
"Do it." Sei Itō sneered when he saw that the five espers didn't attack and were instead discussing. He shouted at Chris beside him.
Then Sei Itō stomped his feet and appeared in front of the rigid man with a speed comparable to teleportation. He threw a punch at the man's abdomen.
Although the performance of these five people was not very formal, in the end, they were LV7 and experienced superhumans. At the moment when Ito Sei launched the attack, they immediately put away the sloppy emotions on their faces and seriously defended.
The rigid man's hands moved quickly. One hand reached in front of his abdomen to block Sei Itō's attack, and the other hand moved to his waist to pull out a pistol. When he was pushed back by the force of the punch, he raised the gun and fired at Sei Itō.
The bullet seemed to have eyes as it flew rapidly towards Sei Itō's forehead.
Sei Itō's heart was beating wildly. He turned his feet and dodged the bullet by a hair's breadth. He swung his arm and punched at the brown-haired man.
"I've been waiting for you." The brown-haired man grinned. His body immediately scattered into countless dust particles and wrapped around Sei Itō's fist.
"Good chance." The black man saw this and shouted. He pointed his hands at Sei Itō, who was wrapped in dust particles. Several thin and sharp icicles immediately appeared around Sei Itō's body and stabbed towards Sei Itō's body.
"Whoosh! Bang. " Wrapped in dust particles, Sei Itō's psychokinesis suddenly erupted. It blew away the dust particles around him like a hurricane. Then, the psychokinesis instantly turned into a psychokinesis barrier, blocking the incoming icicles.
Not far away, Chris pointed his hand at the rigid man. A psychokinesis attack instantly emerged from his palm and flew towards the rigid man.
"Don't ignore me." The undisciplined woman instantly appeared in front of the rigid man. At the same time, she opened up a psychokinesis barrier in front of her and blocked Chris's attack.
"You're so annoying. I'm in the middle of a fight." Seeing the undisciplined woman make a move, the woman who was playing with her phone finally stopped idling. She continued to control her phone with one hand and pointed her other hand at Chris. Several red maple trees instantly appeared above Chris's head and smashed down on him.
Chris didn't move at all. However, the trees suddenly stopped just as they were about to fall on his head and hovered above his head.
Chris still didn't move, but the trees immediately flew towards the woman at high speed.
Sensing the incoming attack, the woman's figure flashed and suddenly appeared in another part of the street.
After releasing the attack, Chris didn't stop. His body transformed into a large cloud of dust particles, which spread throughout the battlefield and enveloped everyone, including Sei Itō and the five espers.
Then, the dust particles moved and formed several ribbons that wrapped around the woman.
The mobile phone girl, who was covered in dust particles, finally stopped playing with her mobile phone. She frowned and quickly scanned her surroundings. She immediately teleported and appeared in mid-air. She then continued to teleport to the same point in space to obtain the floating effect.
Seeing that the rope made of dust particles had failed, Clarkson changed his target and pounced on the stereotypical man.
When the stereotypical man saw this, he quickly used his thumb to move a crossbar on the gun. Then, he fired at the particle rope. Immediately, a ball emitting an orange light flew out of the gun's muzzle and shot at the particle rope.
"Boom!" A loud explosion was heard. The ball exploded fiercely, and the explosion cleared away the smoke and dust.
"Chris, back off." At this time, Sei Itō suddenly shouted.
Hearing Sei Itō's order, the dust particles Chris had turned into paused in their tracks. Then, they quickly gathered into a tide and rushed towards the woman who was hovering in midair.
As soon as the dust particles left Ito Sei's body, a huge fire burst out from Ito Sei's body, forming a large sea of fire that burned everyone around him as well as the remaining dust particles.
