In Japan, religion is not a maverick or an act of being out of the ordinary.

Christianity, Buddhism, and Shinto all have a wide range of audiences and believers, and even those small churches that casually fabricate doctrines and accumulate wealth can eat them, which shows the popularity of religion in Japan.

But... If you expect some delinquent teenagers to become religious, it is a bit difficult for strong people.

So when Tosaka Tiger shook his head blankly, there was no accident with Uesugi Kiyoshi.

The steps of ascending to the gods in the mirage building, the statues of the gods, require faith, this is already a fact that is not to be questioned.

But he's not a god stick, let him cut people, he still has a lot of experience, let him fool people into believing in religion and believing in a certain god, this is not what he is good at.

He had thought of something before.

For example, Li Fuyao mentioned that he borrowed the power of the Dongwen Society to promote faith and shape the image of gods, but... It's always a good idea to be prepared with a little bit of preparation.

He hasn't tasted the sweetness of becoming a god now, but he has seen Li Fuyao's true body before, and he secretly feels that the road of "ascending to the god" is probably the threshold he must pass through in the future.

Human power, after all, is limited.

Uesugi Kiyoshi glanced at a few of Tosaka Tiger's followers who were hiding far away, and those who killed Matt immediately slipped back to the activity building sensibly.

His expression became pleasant, and he helped Tosaka Tiger to his feet and covered half of his body with an umbrella to protect him from the rain.

"Tosaka, I think there is a truth that you must understand, there is no pie falling from the sky in this world."

"Tosaka group, I vaguely remember that I saw the name of this group on the document handed to me by Maki, who started out in the custom business, also did loan sharking, and after accumulating the principal, he became the owner of some precious metals and minerals business - your father is a man with brains."

"But that uncle of yours seems to be a pure Yakuzha, and this inheritance will be ruined in his hands."

"It's not that I'm talking big, the Tosaka group is really a little insignificant in the eyes of the Tobunkai, and letting someone like your uncle die is just a matter of one sentence."

"But... Why should I help you? ”

"What about the things between us before, I can not blame the past, you haven't done anything excessive to Apricot, and then you can be considered acquainted, I won't be so careful."

"But let me help you now, and give me a reason for saying the past."

"There is no need to mention the words of serving me for the rest of your life, I am raising my arms now, some people will shout for my loyalty, and the words that come out of my mouth, I am not rare."

"I'm going to--act!"

Tosaka Tiger was just a hot-tempered and impulsive bad character.

However, misfortune and calamity are the best catalysts for human growth, and when the family changes dramatically, he must be careful in everything, which has sharpened his heart firmly and calmly.

He actually thought about a lot of Uesugi Kiyoshi's reactions, such as beating him up and getting angry, just brushing his sleeves away, or turning a blind eye to him.

He is mentally prepared, and now that the situation is stronger than others, he will not lose his position.

Hear that... Seems to have a play?

He's not a brainless fool, Uesugi Kiyoshi is out of the strings, he can understand that he needs to do something, as an equivalent exchange.

Tosaka Tiger's expression immediately became more respectful, he leaned his tall body slightly, and said in a low voice: "Uesugi-san, if there is anything, please give me orders, I will definitely handle it for you." ”

Uesugi Kiyoshi pondered for a long time before he slowly spoke.

He didn't immediately say anything to Tosaka Tora, but took out his phone and dialed a number.

"Hey, Maki, it's me..."

"Oh... It's Kamisi, Maki is in a meeting? ”

"Forget it, it's not a big deal, you go and find out which hospital the former head of the Tosaka group is in for medical treatment now, transfer him to the hospital under the name of the Tobunkai, send someone to protect him, don't let him die."

"Well, that's all."

After a few simple words, Uesugi Kiyoshi hung up the phone.

Then he looked at Tosaka Tiger with a little gratitude, and said softly: "I don't like to let people work for daywork, this is my sincerity." ”

"I don't like to talk around the bush, I want to spread a sect in Tokyo, and I want to leave this matter to you."

"Of course, it didn't make you much bigger, and it's not all up to you."

"Your target is [students]."

"I don't care what method you use, except for some funds, I won't give you any assistance, everything depends on you."

"Elementary school, middle school, high school, and even university."

"The more the merrier, the sooner the better, to spread the faith and to proclaim the name of our Lord God."

"Means, as long as it doesn't hurt nature, you can do anything, if something happens, I'll take care of it for you, the police or the gangsters, I can handle it, you don't have to have any worries."

Uesugi Kiyoshi stuffed the umbrella into Tosaka Tiger's hand and stretched, his eyes becoming a little unpredictable.

"You find me today, count your fate, your father and I will let people protect you, since this matter was bumped into by me, then the group under the Dongwen Society, there will not be a situation where the team leader dies and we ignore it."

"But, if you want to recapture the Tosaka group..."

"Go and do what I said, and everything will fall into place."

"You might... And more to come. ”

"Of course, you can refuse, and even if you refuse, I will guarantee your father's safety, but... I won't take care of your business anymore, and I won't come to school often in the future, so I can only wish you good luck. ”

The role of the power of faith, Uesugi Kiyoshi has already figured out some.

Not only can it be used as a substitute for mirage as a consumption to use supernatural abilities, but it can also be used as an efficient "fuel" to power the god body of the dog god.

This may not seem to be any different from the role of a mirage, except that it is different in its efficiency as energy.

However, that step of ascending to the gods told Uesugi Kiyoshi that the so-called power of faith has a more important role.

It can... Create "extraordinary".

The gods, in ancient times, when humans were ignorant and ignorant, were revered as creators.

Correspondingly, they also have the wonderful ability to "create".

But now Uesugi Kiyoshi has very little "faith", and it has not yet reached the level of use, so there are more secrets that he can't explore yet.

This was also the original intention of his sudden idea.

The widest audience for Japanese religion is the elderly, children, and housewives.

Tosaka Tiger's social aspect allows him to exert a certain influence in the group of "students", to take the simplest example, he was originally charged protection money, so if the worship of "money" becomes the worship of "faith", then I am afraid that there are many weak people who are troubled by school violence, and seek refuge will be happy to do so.

After all, most of the people who seek bad protection are not rich.

Tosaka Tiger as a bad boy,It's quite famous.,The family is still a subordinate group of the Tobunkai.,It's also a know-it-all.,At the beginning, Uesugi Kiyoshi also asked Kudo Yuichi to check him.,Although it's a little arrogant and unreasonable.,But he hasn't done anything bad.,It's a decent "traditional" bad.,If nothing else.,After graduating from high school, he should join the family group.,Become a member of the Extreme Road.,And then carry forward the family business.。

But after the accident in the family, he will become one more reason to "work hard" for it.

To be honest, if it weren't for his uncle's ghost and his father's uncertain life and death, Uesugi Kiyoshi would not necessarily choose Tosaka Tora.

In his view, the obsession with hatred is one of the strongest motivators for people to become stronger.

Sure enough, Tosaka Tiger didn't think about it at all, so he nodded heavily.

"Yes, I see."

"Please rest assured, I once had a friend who was brainwashed by a small religion, and I brought someone to rescue him, and I also know something about that demagogic routine."

"Ahh Sorry, I lost my words... I'm not talking about your sect..."

Tosaka Tiger looked up at Uesugi Kiyoshi with some trepidation, he just said something that satirized Uesugi Kiyoshi and was suspected of being demagoguery, in his memory, if a subordinate dared to talk to his father like this, it was estimated that a punch and kick would be inevitable.

Uesugi Kiyoshi didn't react too aggressively, just smiled mysteriously.

Seeing that he didn't seem to take his gaffe to heart, Tora Tosaka breathed a sigh of relief, didn't dare to say more, and asked directly: "Uesugi-sama, then..."

"What is the name of our denomination? Who are the gods they worship? What is the thrust of the doctrine? Please let me know. ”

Uesugi Kiyoshi made this decision not on a whim.

He had been thinking about it for days, and he was prepared for these questions.

A little bit of a mirage that can confuse people's minds, the corners of his lips with a smile lightly opened, and the young man's voice seemed a little ethereal in the rain, as if he came from outside the sky.

"Concentrate and listen to me."

"He is the Lord of Tokyo."

"He is the uncrowned king of the sword and the life and death."

"He is the refuge of the weak and the good."

"He is the death bell for demons and gods and for evil."

“...”

"He lives forever in the mirror, an eternity above a mirage."

"He is the one who set off the grand scene of a hundred ghosts walking at night, and slashed all the ghosts..."

"The saint of the sword, the lord of the hundred ghosts!"

In the eyes of those who don't know, this passage may be a bit of a middle school and inexplicable, but Uesugi Kiyoshi, who has read a lot of materials in the Collectibles Association, understands that this is not something that is said casually.

It was a prayer he had racked his brains to come up with.

Compared to Buddhism or Christianity, these prayers are somewhat rudimentary, but their basic principles are similar.

This is a beacon that guides the believer's faith power to reach the sea of divine stars, and it is also a beacon for eternity.

These words, in fact, describe the "self" of Uesugi Kiyoshi.

He was quite cautious in his work, so he added a restriction in the first sentence - he kept the regional scope within the "Tokyo Metropolitan Government".

Therefore, when a believer recites this prayer, it does not attract the attention of the gods outside of Tokyo, and the influence of "outsiders" on "locals" is limited.

"Holding the sword and life and killing" naturally refers to his swordsmanship and the life-and-death battles he has experienced.

Protecting the weak and punishing the wicked was a preliminary doctrine he set -- not that his sense of justice was overflowing, but that this doctrine was relatively acceptable in Japan, where the common people were generally oppressed.

It also implies his deeds of slaying ghosts.

"Eternal in the mirror, the eternal on the mirage" refers to the dream mirror world, in the mirage building, which is the "foundation" of Uesugi Kiyoshi, and if the plan really goes well in the future, it is very likely that this place will expand into his "kingdom of God".

As for the last sentence, it refers to the power of the hundred ghosts to draw scrolls, and the prospect of controlling the hundred ghosts under his command, as well as the prospect of fighting against ghosts and gods.

He couldn't think of any lofty god name, so he used his original dream of learning swords - to become a sage in the sword, plus the identity of the owner of the hundred ghost scrolls.

So...

In the end, the god he incarnated as the saint of the sword in Tokyo and the lord of a hundred ghosts!

If his plan does succeed in the future, this prayer may add a number of words to describe his "power" and "achievements and fame."

Uesugi Kiyoshi used some mirage slightly, not to bewitch and control Tosaka Tiger, he disdained to do this kind of thing, but to engrave this belief and breath in Tosaka Tiger's mind and impress him deeply.

In Tosaka Tiger's somewhat distant and slightly confused eyes, Uesugi Kiyoshi stretched out his right hand, and the hazy mirage fluttered and danced, converging into a sea, and slowly revealing his true form.

A miniature statue appeared in Kiyoshi Uesugi's hand.

The slim Wu Yi lined up a tall posture, the sword on his waist was brilliant, the fingers holding the hilt of the sword were slender and powerful, and the whole person was ready to go, with an inexplicable majesty.

Most of the statue's face was blocked by a red and white white fox mask, revealing only the slightly upturned corners of the lips, which seemed to reveal a confident smile with a bamboo in his chest and victory or defeat in his hand.

The gray and black mist lingers, and the artistic conception of this statue is mysterious and treacherous, which makes people impressed and difficult to extricate themselves from at a glance.

Tosaka Tiger subconsciously took the statue, and kept muttering in his mouth.

"The Holy of Swords... Lord of the Hundred Ghosts..."

He's just a high school student, and he's just a second-year teenager, and what Uesugi Kiyoshi said just now, the magic trick he used to make out of nothing, just enough to satisfy the fantasy of "extraordinary" that Tosaka Tiger once had.

He didn't feel at all that this sect was a money-making organization to fool its followers.

Speaking of which, that Dongwen sword ghost will definitely not be boring enough to create a sect that cheats money!

Could this be... A true god?

Isn't Uesugi-sama's ability a gift from the gods? Is he an oracle of the gods who walk on earth?

Messy thoughts poured into Tosaka's mind, causing his brain to crash for a moment.

It took half a minute for him to come to his senses.

With a solemn bow, he carefully picked up the pocket statue with both hands, and Tosaka Tiger said resolutely: "I understand!" Uesugi-sama, thank you for entrusting me with such an important task! ”

"I won't let you down!"

Under this combination of grace and power, looking at Tosaka Tiger's expression, he was already eager to go to the soup for Uesugi Kiyoshi.

Uesugi Kiyoshi didn't ramble anymore and casually reported a phone number.

It was a phone call from Mitsushi Ueno.

"Well, if you have any problems in the future, you will find this person directly, he will solve the small trouble for you, and he will report it to me if something big happens."

"Come on, Tosaka-kun."

Uesugi Kiyoshi didn't say anything superfluous, just patted Tosaka Tiger on the shoulder with deep meaning, left the umbrella to him, and left in stride, without worry or hesitation.

How to say it... This plan is actually zero-cost.

The only statue he paid for, as long as Uesugi Kiyoshi's mirage was enough, he could condense two or three a day, which was the method taught to him by the drunken boy, to create a god statue containing his own breath, as a quick means of contacting the believers.

Since it is zero cost, then naturally there is no need to worry about the amount of income, the effect is blood gain, and it is not a loss if it is messed up.

But judging from the determined and somewhat fanatical eyes of Tosaka Tiger behind him.

It seems that this bad boss is not so casual in his attitude towards this matter.
