Chainsaw Man: Mangekyo Sharingan

Chapter 92: Chapter 92: Dragon

The Devil Hunter reinforcements participating in this operation were all exempt from German visa requirements, allowing them to reach Germany as quickly as possible.

Because of that, the reinforcements from the Soviet Union and China soon arrived at Berlin Public Safety one after another.

The first to arrive was the one from China, and once again, it was someone Kotone Asaba recognized.

It was Pingtsi, one of Quanxi’s Fiend companions from the original story, a Fiend capable of perceiving which devils other people had contracts with. (TN: These chinese characters are cannon btw)

Pingtsi had dark gray hair, tied into a ponytail shaped like an eel, complete with eyes and a mouth that could make expressions. Her figure was rather petite and cute, but her face wore a cold and arrogant expression.

However, this "perception" was not the same as the insight granted by his Mangekyo Sharingan. More precisely, it should be described as "seeing through" everything.

For example, Pingtsi could perceive what devil someone had contracted with, and she could even know the exact devil power involved.

When she saw something, she could also grasp the related knowledge, as if her brain came with its own encyclopedia.

As for what devil Pingtsi had originally been before becoming a Fiend, that was still unclear. She might have been a "Perception Fiend," or possibly an "Encyclopedia Fiend." Scratch that.

Seeing her, Kotone Asaba only felt that things had become a little troublesome.

The reason was simple. This girl could perceive his devil powers.

It would not matter much if she discovered his contracts with the Angel Devil and the Mask Devil. The main issue was that he had no contract with any devil corresponding to his Kamui ability, so for the time being, he could only try his best to avoid using Kamui.

Because Pingtsi could perceive what devil someone had contracted with, and could even know the exact devil power, his contracts with the Angel Devil and the Mask Devil would be discovered by her. Meanwhile, he had no contract with any devil corresponding to Kamui, so it would be better to avoid using Kamui as much as possible for now.

Still, speaking of which, weren’t those four Fiends, including Pingtsi, all supposed to move together with Quanxi?

Even when they were ordered by the military commander to assassinate Denji, they had to spend a night having an intimate party first before officially making their move.

But he did not see Quanxi. Had Pingtsi come here alone?

Just as Kotone Asaba was feeling puzzled, sure enough, Pingtsi started using her ability as soon as she came in.

"Mm-hmm, mm-hmm~~"

Pingtsi formed a circle with the thumb and index finger of her right hand. At the same time, her expression-making ponytail also curled into the shape of a doughnut, both held in front of her eye.

She closed her left eye, while her right eye peered through the hand gesture and the loop of her ponytail, perceiving everyone present one by one.

Those three men who looked like brothers had contracted with the Skin Devil, allowing them to change their faces into those of corpses they had touched.

Then she looked toward the old man reading the newspaper.

The Doll Devil. He could turn humans into dolls for his own use.

Next was the woman with purple hair and green eyes.

The Doll Devil, the Curse Devil... the Hell Devil? The Darkness Devil?!

The moment she saw the Darkness Devil, Pingtsi immediately felt a chill run down her spine.

Originally, she did not know about the Darkness Devil. After coming to the human world, she had lost her memories of Hell from the start. However, once she perceived the devils this woman had contracted with, she could learn detailed information about those devils.

The Darkness Devil had never experienced death. It was one of the strongest devils in Hell, crowned with the name of primal fear.

Just seeing that much filled her heart with fear.

What a terrifying woman...

In her heart, Pingtsi labeled this woman "extremely dangerous" and had no desire to get too close to her.

Finally, Pingtsi looked toward the boy whose apparent age was close to hers, and whose face was also East Asian.

The Angel Devil, capable of absorbing human lifespans and creating lifespan weapons.

And then there was the Mask Devil...

The Mask Devil’s ability was relatively underwhelming, but the Angel Devil’s ability was quite powerful.

After understanding the abilities of all the temporary teammates involved in this operation, Pingtsi felt there should not be much problem with the mission.

She did not expose which devils everyone had contracted with. She was merely looking for herself.

"Hey, little girl, what are you staring at us for?" Joey, the second brother, questioned her with some displeasure.

When the other party looked at him just now, he felt as if something about him had been seen through.

On top of that, her small figure was exactly the type he was least interested in.

"Heh. Sorry, but I don’t understand whatever nonsense you’re speaking."

Pingtsi was speaking Mandarin. She really did not understand English very well, but she could still understand very basic terms like "little girl," and the other party’s gaze had also carried obvious disrespect.

That made her very unhappy.

It had been a long time since Kotone Asaba had heard that language spoken so naturally, and he could not help feeling a little emotional.

"Long!"

At that moment, Pingtsi suddenly called out, seemingly calling someone’s name.

Hearing that, Kotone Asaba thought, could the Dragon Fiend have come too?

Two of the four Fiends were already here, yet Quanxi had not come. Or could it be that Pingtsi and Long had not met Quanxi yet at this point?

Pingtsi looked back and only then realized that Long had not come in with her.

She seemed to realize something and immediately ran out.

"That kid’s really strange. She should be a Devil Hunter from China, right? She looks like a Fiend," the eldest of the three brothers said.

"Probably. From the look of it, she seems to have a companion too. Looks like China sent two people," Aldo, the third brother, said quietly.

Kotone Asaba also felt that China had shown quite a bit of sincerity.

If the Dragon Fiend really had come, then Pingtsi plus the Dragon Fiend made for a very strong lineup.

The Dragon Devil had powerful destructive force, while Pingtsi leaned toward support and could perceive everything. On top of that, a Fiend’s physical abilities were far stronger than those of an ordinary human.

At that moment, Pingtsi found the Dragon Fiend.

At the stairwell, Long was gnawing on a potted flower. It seemed the fragrance of the flower had attracted her.

Not only that, she was also chewing up the flowerpot along with it. She crunched through it with ease, as if she were eating chips.

"Long, you’re biting random things again! You can’t eat that! We might get fined for this!"

Pingtsi forcibly dragged the Dragon Fiend back into the lounge.

Originally, she had wanted to call Long over just now to teach that rude human man a lesson, but Long had wandered off on her own, disrupting Pingtsi’s original plan.

When Kotone Asaba looked, it really was the Dragon Fiend. A pair of dragon horns grew from her dark red hair. She had a tall, shapely figure, and her facial features were also very beautiful. Her hands were bound in a pair of handcuffs, seemingly used to restrain the Dragon Fiend.

"Now we are only missing the Soviet Union’s Devil Hunters. They should be arriving soon as well, yes?"

At that moment, Master spoke.

Aside from Pingtsi and Long, everyone present knew English, so Master mainly spoke in English.

Hearing all of them speak English, Pingtsi clicked her tongue lightly.

"Tch... What a pain. If I’d known, I wouldn’t have come. I forgot how troublesome communication would be."

"Hey, do any of you know Mandarin?"

At that moment, Pingtsi asked loudly.

"What’s she saying? She’s speaking Mandarin, right? I can’t understand a word."

"That kid’s body isn’t much, but she sure causes plenty of trouble. The Fiend girl beside her looks pretty good, though."

"I’ve never studied Mandarin either. This is going to be inconvenient for communication, and that won’t be good for the operation..."

The three brothers started discussing it among themselves.

Santa Claus remained the same as ever, silently reading his newspaper without saying a word.

Master apparently did not know Mandarin either, and said "sorry" in English.

The main reason was that Mandarin was too difficult to learn. Unless it was necessary, most people were not very willing to study it.

Pingtsi immediately felt somewhat disappointed. Her gaze finally landed on Kotone Asaba.

"What about you? You should be a Devil Hunter from Japan, right? But why do you look more like you’re from China?"

She carefully studied Kotone Asaba’s face. Having lived in China for so long, she had a deep impression of how people from her own country looked, and could roughly distinguish people from Korea, Japan, and other countries based on appearance alone.

But why did this boy give her more of a local impression?

"I can speak Mandarin, but I really am a Devil Hunter from Japan. If you do not believe me, here is my identification."

Kotone Asaba directly took out his Tokyo Public Safety credentials and showed them to Pingtsi, trying to dispel her suspicions.

But Pingtsi was still half-believing and half-doubting.

"It’s also possible you went from our country to Japan and became a Public Safety Devil Hunter there, right? And your Mandarin is so standard."

Hearing such fluent Mandarin made her even less inclined to believe that this boy was Japanese. How many Japanese people could speak Mandarin that naturally?

"Would you like me to show you my proof of citizenship as well? As for whether my language is standard or not, my English, German, and even Russian are all standard too. Does that mean I am also British, German, and Soviet at the same time?"

Kotone Asaba felt slightly helpless.

This really was a troublesome girl. In Japan, he had a built-in civilian identity from the moment he transmigrated, and most people would not care about this kind of thing, so no one had questioned him before.

As for Europeans and Americans, there was even less need to mention them. Westerners generally could not distinguish the subtle differences between East Asian appearances, just as many people from East Asia could not distinguish the subtle differences between Western appearances unless they had seen enough people.

It was not that he wanted to invite unnecessary misunderstandings about his past, but whatever attachments belonged to his previous life were a private matter. After transmigrating, his identity in this world was that of a Japanese citizen. In this world’s China, there were absolutely no documents related to him. Admitting to anything else would only create needless trouble.

And there was no need to verbally explain it either. It was enough for him to keep certain things in his heart. From beginning to end, he had never once thought of working for the Japanese Cabinet.

As for China... Kotone Asaba was temporarily unclear on what the current situation in China was like. There was not much information about China in the original story, and he did not want to study it too deeply either. He only wanted to handle the things he needed to do first.

"Fine, fine. Either way, since you understand Mandarin too, let’s act together," Pingtsi said to Kotone Asaba. "Also, you understand other languages too, right? If anything important comes up, I’ll have to trouble you to translate for us."

At this moment, Pingtsi did not act arrogant. She could not exactly be called very polite, but at least her words and tone did not make people uncomfortable.

"No problem."

Kotone Asaba agreed readily as well.

There was no special reason, only that Pingtsi and the Dragon Fiend were Devil Hunters from China.

He naturally felt a certain sense of familiarity toward them.

"Good."

Pingtsi disliked the three American brothers. She also disliked the old man reading the newspaper, who ignored people. As for that woman, although she was very strong, Pingtsi felt that she was too dangerous and had absolutely no desire to approach her.

That left only this boy as the best candidate to act with her. He had the same East Asian appearance, his face was pleasant to look at, communication was not a problem, he could translate for her, and since he had contracted with the Angel Devil, his strength should not be poor either.

Although they had to cooperate to deal with the mob, no one said everyone had to act together.

Operations like this were generally carried out separately, with everyone simply maintaining contact at all times. When the time came, there should be no problem with her and Long only acting together with this boy.

"Your name is Kotone Asaba, right? I’m Pingtsi, and she is Long."

Pingtsi introduced herself and Long beside her.

"As you can see, we are both Fiends. But we do not have any ill will toward humans. It’s just that Long loses control easily, so we use handcuffs to restrain her."

"I understand."

In truth, Kotone Asaba had known Pingtsi and Long’s identities for a long time, but he still put on an act.

"By the way, do you two know Quanxi?"

Kotone Asaba was still a little curious about that.

"Quanxi? You mean the strongest Devil Hunter in Hong Kong? I don’t know her. We haven’t had any contact with her yet."

Pingtsi said, "What’s the matter? Do you know her, or did you want to ask us about her?"

Long did not respond, mainly because she could not speak.

"No, I don’t know her. I was just asking casually."

Kotone Asaba shook his head.

Sure enough, it was just as he had guessed. At this point in the timeline, Pingtsi and the Dragon Fiend had not come into contact with Quanxi yet, which was why they were not acting together with her.

Just then, the Devil Hunters from the Soviet Union arrived as well.

However, this time, they were still people Kotone Asaba knew...

As the country with the strongest national power, the Soviet Union had sent three people, and all of them were acquaintances of Kotone Asaba. They were Volkov, captain of Moscow Public Safety Team 1, as well as the siblings Funi and Nick.

"Captain Volkov, and Funi and Nick too. I can’t believe you’re the ones who came."

Seeing those three familiar faces, Kotone Asaba immediately felt somewhat surprised.

Volkov surprised him the most.

That was because Public Safety captains were all relatively busy. The more elite the team, the busier the captain was, and Team 1 was Moscow Public Safety’s strongest team.

Kotone Asaba had not expected to run into these three people here again.

"Huh? Asaba, you’re here too."

Volkov also looked surprised.

"I was originally on vacation. When I heard Germany had sent out an urgent request for help, I was supposed to come alone. But Nick here insisted on coming with me, and then Funi came along too..."

Nick and Funi both looked pleasantly surprised when they saw Kotone Asaba. Nick had come because he wanted to temper himself through experience, while Funi had come because she was worried and followed him. Neither of them had expected to unexpectedly meet Asaba here.

Hearing Kotone Asaba communicate normally with the Soviet people as well, Pingtsi was still quite surprised.

Earlier, she had not taken Kotone Asaba’s words seriously and thought he had been exaggerating a little. It turned out he really did understand all kinds of languages.

If she had not perceived otherwise, she would have suspected that this boy had contracted with some kind of Language Devil.

This was probably what humans called a genius. Even at such a young age, he had already mastered multiple languages and could communicate with people without issue.

TN: Sorry about the part between Pingtsi and Kotone about him being Chinese; I couldn’t change it much without altering the meaning because that entire section was practically about that. Even so, I shortened it a bit.
