Chainsaw Man: Mangekyo Sharingan

Chapter 70: Chapter 70: Reze’s Plan

Seeing the other party react like that, Reze also confirmed that these people really had been controlled by Kotone Asaba.

The people who needed to be controlled with genjutsu had already been handled, so Kotone Asaba immediately transferred himself into the Kamui dimension and did not linger there.

Although the security cameras had already captured him, solving that problem was very simple. He just had the important figures he controlled directly erase the related surveillance footage.

Kotone Asaba did not take Reze with him through the Kamui dimension. Instead, he let Reze leave the military base on her own.

If they were going to do this, they had to make it as flawless as possible. Reze’s entries and exits from the military base were recorded. Since there was already a record of her coming in, there naturally had to be a record of her going out too, so as not to leave any loose ends.

Afterward, Kotone Asaba directly transferred himself back home and waited for Reze to return.

When Reze got home, Kotone Asaba said to her, "From now on, as long as you don’t do anything too extreme, there basically won’t be any problems."

For example, carrying out a terrorist attack or directly opposing the Soviet Union. Things like that would be too extreme.

"I know."

Reze answered.

She had absolutely no reason to do anything that extreme.

Kotone Asaba was not worried that Reze would do anything extreme either. He was only reminding her casually.

Based on his understanding of Reze, she was someone who completed the missions assigned by her superiors by any means necessary.

In the original story, the people Reze killed were, without exception, people who obstructed her mission. As for someone like Kobeni, who immediately surrendered, Reze did not touch her at all.

She could be said to be a principled killer. She killed without blinking, but she did not kill randomly either. She purely did it to complete her mission.

Now that the important figures in the Soviet military had all been controlled by Kotone Asaba with genjutsu, Reze would no longer receive any mission assignments, so there was even less chance she would do anything extreme.

"Is there anything you want to do next?"

At that moment, Kotone Asaba asked Reze.

"I haven’t thought it through yet. But there is one thing I’ve already decided. When Koto goes back to Japan, I’ll go to Japan with Koto too. Is that okay?"

Reze said this.

"Of course. And that really does sound pretty good."

Kotone Asaba nodded.

Here in the Soviet Union, there were still often military informants watching them. Although there usually would not be any problems, being watched by people definitely felt uncomfortable. Once they went to Japan, they would almost never be monitored. The Soviet military’s informants would not go so far as to chase them all the way to Japan, especially not to a place like Tokyo.

When the time came, he could just have the important figures he controlled make up a reason. For example, they could arrange for Reze to go to Tokyo, Japan, to carry out a secret mission. Then even fewer people would be able to interfere with Reze.

However, Kotone Asaba did not plan to return to Japan so quickly for now. He wanted to let things settle for a while first.

Besides, his identity was that of someone from Tokyo Public Safety who had come here for international exchange. Quanxi had stayed in Japan for nine years. He did not need to stay in the Soviet Union for years, but at the very least, he should build up more achievements before going back.

If he returned this early without many achievements, it would be somewhat hard to justify.

With Kotone Asaba’s help, Reze could now be considered free, and she had already started thinking about what she should do after going to Japan with Kotone Asaba.

But right now, they still had to continue patrolling the Zelenograd Administrative District.

When patrolling, Kotone Asaba always carried Pochita around.

Pochita’s Affinity increased by five percent.

With the accumulation from this recent period, Pochita’s Affinity had risen a little again. It had now reached seventy-five percent.

"Another Devil appeared. I’ll go deal with it."

With the Mangekyo Sharingan, Kotone Asaba saw the Devil far ahead from a long distance away.

Judging from its appearance, it seemed to be an Apple Devil. It was basically an enlarged apple with terrifying Devil traits. It did not seem to have any special abilities. It only had a huge mouth that could bite people.

Any name could become a Devil, so Devils appeared quite frequently all over the world.

A Devil with a name like "apple" would generally be very weak, unless it had eaten a piece of the Gun Devil’s flesh. Devils that ate pieces of the Gun Devil’s flesh would be greatly strengthened.

However, this kind of Devil still was not something ordinary people could handle. A Devil Hunter still had to step in and deal with it.

Of course, there were exceptions, just like the Chicken Devil in the original story. Its body was already very weak, and it held no malice toward humans. In the end, Asa Mitaka, a high school girl, accidentally tripped and crushed it to death.

Although people had almost no fear of chickens, being that weak was still a bit too much.

At that moment, Kotone Asaba teleported in front of the Apple Devil and directly dealt with it using the chainsaw on Pochita’s head.

The Apple Devil was so large, and it did not have an obvious head, so finding its vital point was not easy. Killing it with Kamui’s tearing ability would be relatively troublesome. At times like this, directly sawing the Apple Devil in half with Pochita’s chainsaw was obviously the most convenient method.

After dealing with the Apple Devil, today’s patrol could be temporarily ended. Kotone Asaba brought the Apple Devil’s corpse back to Moscow Public Safety.

"Did Kotone Asaba just bring back another Devil corpse? How long has he even been at our Moscow Public Safety? He’s already hunted so many Devils."

"I heard that back when he was in Japan, he had already completed more than one mission involving the hunt for powerful Devils. And those were powerful Devils that had eaten pieces of the Gun Devil’s flesh."

"After all, he’s a Devil Hunter who can participate in the international exchange program. He must be one of the elites from Tokyo, Japan. The overall strength of Devil Hunters in Tokyo, Japan, isn’t low to begin with. There’s a guy named Kishibe who would still be one of the strongest even if he were placed here in Moscow Public Safety."

Some Devil Hunters who ran into Kotone Asaba began discussing him one after another.

These Devil Hunters were all relatively average in strength, and there were even rookies among them. Because of that, they spent most of their time training inside Public Safety and rarely went out to patrol or hunt Devils.

That was why they admired an elite like Kotone Asaba so much. And since he was even younger than them, that made them admire him even more.

Whether a Devil Hunter was powerful or not did not depend purely on luck. Elite Devil Hunters were not simply lucky people who had made contracts with powerful Devils. Devil Hunters who were young yet strong usually truly had something special.

A Devil Hunter’s Devil power was not everything. Their own physical ability, combat experience, and mindset were all equally important. A Devil Hunter with strong fighting ability could crush ordinary Devil Hunters even without using Devil power, and there was also a great difference between a seasoned Devil Hunter and a reckless rookie.

Then there was Devil power. Making a contract with a Devil did involve some luck, but if it was done through completely formal channels, rookies initially made contracts with Devils held by Public Safety. The Devils Public Safety provided to rookies were generally relatively ordinary and low-risk.

For example, many Devil Hunters in Tokyo Public Safety had contracts with the Fox Devil, because the Fox Devil was relatively close to humans. Low-risk meant that the price it demanded would not be too severe.

Afterward, rookies could rely on their own efforts to make contracts with stronger Devils, but the risks would also become higher. Things like a Devil being in a good mood and asking for a low price were only extremely rare exceptions. Just as the Angel Devil had said, Devils instinctively wanted humans to suffer and die.

Therefore, Devil Hunters who could become elites usually had genuine ability.

The rookies in Moscow Public Safety still had to train every day, while Kotone Asaba, who was even younger than them, was already an elite who had killed quite a few Devils.

Moscow Public Safety was not especially short on manpower, so it would not let rookies come into contact with Devils right away.

Even Kotone Asaba, who was clearly an elite Devil Hunter from Tokyo Public Safety, had not been assigned any especially difficult missions at first. He was given some time to familiarize himself with the local environment, and only later did Captain Volkov assign him a slightly more difficult mission.

Moreover, the actual difficulty of that mission had exceeded expectations. Chief Zhelov colluding with the Rat Devil was something Captain Volkov had not anticipated.

"Very good. You hunted another Devil. Your record is already quite impressive."

Captain Volkov was usually in the Public Safety building handling affairs. After learning that Kotone Asaba had hunted another Devil, he immediately came over to praise him.

"I discussed it with the higher-ups. We can allow you to make a contract with one of the Devils imprisoned by Moscow Public Safety. Have you considered anything in that regard?"

For Captain Volkov to say this clearly showed that Moscow Public Safety greatly acknowledged Kotone Asaba’s strength. Otherwise, they would not casually allow a Devil Hunter from another country to make a contract with the Devils held on their side.

"Thank you for your kindness, Captain Volkov, and please thank the higher-ups as well. But for the time being, I have no plans to make a contract with another Devil."

Kotone Asaba politely refused.

Since he possessed double Kamui, there was no need for him to make a contract with other Devils. Making a contract with a Devil would also require paying all kinds of prices. Unless it was a Devil on the level of the Control Devil or even the Darkness Devil, and the contract price was not unbearable, he might consider it.

"All right. That’s a bit of a pity."

Volkov’s original intention was to give Kotone Asaba a chance to make a contract with a powerful Devil imprisoned by Moscow Public Safety. Although there would be a contract price, having one more ability was never a bad thing.

It was just that he would never have imagined that Kotone Asaba’s double Kamui did not come from a Devil contract at all. Currently, under normal circumstances, its side effects could basically be ignored.

"In that case, you can decide for yourself whether you want to participate in tomorrow’s operation. Two Devils carrying pieces of the Gun Devil’s flesh have appeared in the forest, and we need to gather two teams to eliminate them, namely our Team 1 and Team 2."

Captain Volkov said, "Considering that you only recently arrived at our Moscow Public Safety, for an operation with this level of danger, you have the right to choose whether or not to participate."

"My suggestion is that if you can avoid participating, then don’t participate. Missions of this difficulty always result in quite a few casualties. You’re still young. There’s no need to take this risk."

"But if you choose to participate, I still suggest you take advantage of today and choose a suitable Devil to make a contract with. Having one more Devil power can be considered one more layer of protection."

Captain Volkov still wanted to persuade Kotone Asaba.

"It’s fine. I’ll participate. Captain Volkov, you don’t need to worry so much."

This made Kotone Asaba feel a little embarrassed.

But he truly did not want to casually make a contract with a Devil.

"All right. I respect your choice. Then you don’t need to continue patrolling today. Later, we’ll gather and discuss the operation plan. After that, go back and rest properly so you can conserve your strength for tomorrow’s operation."

Captain Volkov did not say anything more and continued going about his own business.

Kotone Asaba and Reze also stayed inside the Public Safety building for the time being, waiting for the later gathering to discuss the operation plan.

"With Koto’s abilities, there really is no need to make a contract with other Devils."

After Captain Volkov left, Reze sighed with feeling.

Based on her understanding of Kotone Asaba’s abilities, although they were all centered around those uniquely shaped eyes, his abilities were extremely comprehensive.

His insight was extremely strong. He could teleport. He could make himself impossible to touch. He also had a mysterious separate dimension, and he could even control other people.

And those were only the abilities she currently knew about. It was possible that Koto was still hiding other abilities she did not know of.

Reze was truly very curious about what kind of Devil Koto had made a contract with to obtain such comprehensive abilities. Or perhaps he had made contracts with several Devils and obtained each ability separately.

Aside from that, she guessed that Pochita probably also had a contract with Koto. Although Pochita had not shown any special abilities and seemed to be nothing more than a chainsaw weapon.

But since the important figures in the military had set their eyes on him, he definitely was no ordinary Devil either.

"You’re the same, aren’t you? Speaking of which, now that you’ve become a Hybrid, can you still make contracts with other Devils?"

Kotone Asaba was a little curious about this.

"No. The military experimented with that a long time ago."

Reze answered.

"So you really can’t."

This was within Kotone Asaba’s expectations.

A Hybrid who had fused with a Devil heart could be said to be half-human and half-Devil. More importantly, they had the characteristic of being able to revive infinitely.

After revival, the entire person could fully recover. If someone with that characteristic could make contracts with Devils, it would be far too broken.

They would not need to care about the contract price at all. When the body was almost unable to withstand the price of the contract, they could just revive themselves again.

At that moment, it was time for the members of Team 1 and Team 2 to gather and discuss tomorrow’s operation plan. After Kotone Asaba and Reze received the notice, they headed to Captain Volkov’s office.

Inside Captain Volkov’s office, all the members of Team 1 and Team 2 had already arrived.

Standing in front of everyone were Team 1 Captain Volkov and Team 2 Captain Somal.

"First, let’s talk about the intelligence on the Devils we will be eliminating tomorrow. They are the Bear Devil and the Corn Devil. Both appeared in the forest, but the Bear Devil was discovered deep in the forest. The two Devils are not in the same area."

"So Team 1 and Team 2 will split up. Team 1 will be responsible for hunting the Bear Devil, while Team 2 will be responsible for hunting the Corn Devil. Don’t think the Corn Devil is weak just because its name sounds weak. Devils that have eaten pieces of the Gun Devil’s flesh can no longer have their strength judged simply by name. When Team 2 encounters the Corn Devil, they absolutely must not be careless."

While Captain Volkov explained the operation plan, Kotone Asaba casually left a coordinate on one of the Team 2 members standing nearby.
