Chapter 20: Differentiation
Yagi Kamihiro is 51 years old this year, which is considered small among high-level priests with an average age of more than 55 years, and because of this, Yagi Kamihiro still has a long time to maintain peak combat effectiveness.
Most of the Tsing Yi priests are relatively older, the younger ones are over thirty-five years old, and more than sixty years old abound, the gap of more than 20 years is enough to make the experience accumulated by both sides a big difference, and the modern era is different from the past, Meiji Jingu does not need to compete with other shrines as in the early days, and the reserved force is only limited to self-preservation, which is also part of the compromise agreement between Meiji Jingu and the emperor.
The modern army is important, but the strong combat power of the individual is also indispensable, as a high-level figure in a country, he naturally knows that this world is far from so peaceful, ordinary people may think that the supernatural is just a novel, but in fact, the existence of the Meiji Jingu is that the Japanese side deliberately co-opted these long-standing powerful combat forces to fight against the ubiquitous supernatural organization.
Over the years, there have been countless battles between the state and the Alien Organization, and for this unstable factor, the state organization wants to be in the hands but is worried about not being controlled, which is why the current situation has been achieved, in other words, the force of Meiji Jingu can be preserved, and it is also because of this reason.
Unloading the mill and killing the donkey, the cunning rabbit to die, the lackeys to cook, the people of Meiji Jingu are very clear about their role, once there are no supernatural people in the world, the next thing the state machine will have to deal with is them, of course, because they are easier to win over, and the final outcome cannot escape the end of becoming thugs.
Whether they admit it or not. Armed forces such as Meiji Jingu actually play the role of thugs, but they deliberately avoid this fact.
The number of priests in Tsing Yi is dominant. The black-clothed priest wins by quality, and as the lord of the first palace of the Meiji Shrine, and the great priest who can suppress these two groups of powerful combat power, Yagi Kamihiro's strength is far beyond everyone's imagination.
In the face of these strange people who heard the news, Yagi Kamihiro's face was expressionless, he knew very well what the other party's purpose was, but this condition was impossible for him to accept. Maybe someone else can, but he can't, and neither can Hanayamain Kujo. Because they are high priests.
Meiji Jingu's many years of inheritance will definitely not allow him to make a regression in this matter.
"That person is the Grand Priest?"
A man with a few flames floating next to him asked the person next to him, he was the infamous Bomberman, Frank.
"It should be. Look at the black-clad priest standing behind him. If nothing else, that's it. ”
The people around looked at Yagi Kamihiro, who was dressed in white, and subconsciously raised their vigilance in their hearts, as the supreme ruler of Meiji Jingu, Yagi Kamihiro was qualified enough to make them so careful.
Surrounded by many supernatural people, Yagi Kamihiro did not move directly, but looked at them one by one, as if he wanted to engrave each other's faces in his heart, and then spit out fluent English.
"Ladies and gentlemen, come to my Meiji Jingu. I'm a little overwhelmed. ”
Yagi Kamihiro's opening made the person on the other side stunned for a moment. Probably didn't expect Yagi Kamihiro to come back with such a sentence, and even introverts immediately felt a little embarrassed, and they blew up people's homes without saying hello, and then wanted to take advantage of the chaos to grab things, which is contrary to personal morality.
"Master Yagi."
The old man next to Frank the Bomberman had a sneaky look in his eyes, but he said in Japanese: "I'm sure you know what we want, as long as you hand over the things, we will retreat immediately." ”
Yanagi Kobayashi glanced at the other party and didn't speak, but still stood next to him, without Yagi Kamihiro's permission, he wouldn't make a move, Yagi Kamihiro looked at the old man.
"You're a ninja under the name of the Iga family, I've heard of you, and you've awakened your abilities, Iga Aokawa."
"That's right." Iga Qingchuan shrugged indifferently, his information is very easy to investigate, before the establishment of the Alien Organization, he was indeed a ninja, and he was a descendant of the Japanese ninja, a branch of the Iga stream.
Yagi Kamihiro narrowed his eyes: "Since I was also a ninja, I think I should know the three prohibitions of the martial arts family, are you sure you want to come and rob my Meiji Shrine today?" ”
"What about the three prohibitions, it has nothing to do with me anyway, I'm an alien now, not a ninja." Lao Qingchuan didn't care.
The so-called three prohibitions of the martial arts family are "not involved in politics, escapism, vulgarity, and blasphemy." As the name suggests, the martial arts family is rigorously involved in politics, as the so-called chivalrous martial arts are forbidden, which is the truth no matter where it is placed, the second is not vulgar, that is, not to interfere in the ordinary life of civilians, which is the so-called "escapism", and the third point, not blasphemy, refers to organizations that do not involve shrines.
These three prohibitions are from the Edo period, the ninja and the ancient martial arts family began to decline rapidly, especially after the Meiji Restoration, the great changes brought about by Western science and technology have accelerated the end of the cold weapon era, and these three prohibitions were produced at this time, in order to be able to retain the martial arts family.
No matter what time it is placed, it is an extremely sensitive topic, and it is also the first article that these martial arts families try to avoid, very few martial artists are involved in politics, even if they step into the torrent of politics, the identity of the martial artist will be immediately abandoned by the family, and the family is absolutely not allowed to risk the interests of the family.
Since ancient times, people who died because of standing in the wrong line are vivid, these are lessons from the past, martial artists who are used to boiling their muscles and bones, rarely have extra time to think about other issues, and are easily used by politicians who are fancy, this ban has been approved by the majority of martial arts families.
And the second is different from person to person, the martial arts family can be passed down to the present, basically have a certain heritage, the martial artist is also a human being, and also need to eat, sleep and spend money to have children, and these consumption is naturally impossible to rely on land to income as before, many famous martial arts families, have companies and enterprises in the world, used to maintain the normal expenses of the family, this is the unspoken rule of the martial arts family, both sides turn a blind eye, no one will be idle to break this balance.
And the third point,It's some forgotten.,Unlike the early era.,The status of the shrine can be described as plummeting.,The most direct thing is that the combat power in the shrine has been greatly reduced.,Except for the big shrines like Meiji Jingu.,The combat power of other small shrines has completely disappeared.,It's become an ordinary shrine.。 Coupled with the popularization of modern knowledge, some unknown phenomena have been explained one by one, and the fear of the gods has become less intense, so the point of not blaspheming the gods has gradually been forgotten.
And Yagi Shanghong mentioned three prohibitions today, but it made Yanagi Kobayashi sigh secretly, as the former great elder of the Yanagi family, he naturally knows what the current situation is, except for the first one is still a strong binding force, the remaining two prohibitions have existed in name only.
Yagi Shanghong looked at the old man Qingchuan, not knowing what he was thinking, and then suddenly looked at the blonde and blue-eyed foreigner next to him, that is, Angel Dao.
"What do you call this one?"
"Angel." The blonde man replied without knowing why, but still maintaining a gentlemanly demeanor.
"Mr. Angel, how about we make a deal, as long as you can kill them, we can negotiate and divide the things equally, and you know how useful this thing is."
Yagi Kamihiro suddenly pulled up the angel, which surprised everyone, especially Iga Qingchuan, who was standing next to him, his face sank, and his eyes were even more suspicious.
He and the angel were originally temporary cooperation, and the so-called trust between the two sides was just based on the same purpose, and the Meiji Jingu was too powerful, once there was no common interest, no one dared to guarantee that the angel, who was still an ally just now, would not launch a surprise attack on him in the next moment.
The angel was also stunned for a moment, and then his face suddenly had some amusement, he looked at Lao Qingchuan, who was a little suspicious, and said to Yagi Shanghong.
"Master Yagi, why should I join forces with you, I eliminated the other party, and we will be the next to be eliminated, your reason is not enough to convince me."
Yagi Kamihiro's voice was indifferent: "Iga Qingchuan is very disrespectful to the shrine, what he did is already blasphemy, he was originally from the Iga ninja, according to the ban and we are mortal enemies, and you are just temporary passers-by, compared to you, we are more willing to pay some conditions to kill him, as for my promise, Meiji Jingu is still more honest." ”
Yagi Shanghong's voice made Lao Qingchuan's face twitch, and he hurriedly grabbed the angel's mouth and said angrily: "Yagi Shanghong, I'm just isolating the induction of the enchantment, and I don't kill as much as Cloak Jack in terms of killing, why don't you entangle with me for such a thing!" ”
Lao Qingchuan became more and more uneasy in his heart, if the situation in front of him dragged on any longer, it would become more and more unfavorable to his side.
"Killing one is also killing, killing a hundred is also killing, there are ancients in Huaxia saying: Don't laugh at fifty steps and laugh at a hundred steps, since you don't have the mind to fear the gods, is there any difference between what you do and others?"
Yagi Shanghong's face was as usual, and he easily kicked the problem back, Lao Qingchuan's face was cloudy, and several strangers behind him also noticed the situation on the field, and their feet moved, and they moved closer to their own people, and no one dared to confirm whether the opposition would be back.
For the organization of the supernatural who pursue interests, anything can happen, and the people under the angel are also making a defensive move, Yagi Shanghong is just a few words, so that this small group has split, it is really a heart-attacking strategy, and the angel looked at the people on the field, and a smile of unknown reason appeared on his face.
"Since you say so, then I can only ......" (to be continued......
