Anime Crossover: Many Children, Many Blessings; Yukino, the Wife from the Apocalypse

Although the Mad Blade Society was no ordinary group, Chang Wei was not one to be intimidated. However, he preferred to win through strategy rather than get involved in the conflict too early.

However, he also knew that things could change, and he had to be prepared.

He stared at Kawahara I, his tone heavy: "If anything unexpected happens, Sato and the others will escort you away. Remember, you and your sister are our family. No matter what happens, we must ensure your safety."

Chang Wei specifically emphasized the word "family" to make Sato and the others understand that if anything changes, they should be taken back to Golden Bull Town, which is their root.

Kawahara nodded, understanding Chang Wei's intention. Little Balala, though still somewhat confused, also knew that now was not the time to press for answers.

In the days that followed, the performance of the Peerless Society surprised everyone.

It was thought that they would take a short break after Operation Thunder, but unexpectedly they launched a series of attacks like a storm, eliminating the two forces once again.

This shocked the major forces in the periphery. The rampant expansion of the Peerless Society seemed to indicate their ambition to unify the periphery.

In particular, the Small Knife Society and the Gathering Righteous Alliance were furious, as the Peerless Society's actions were undoubtedly challenging their bottom line.

However, despite their anger, they dared not act rashly, fearing that Wushuang might become too powerful and that other forces might take advantage of the situation to invade.

However, the Wushuang Society did not stop its expansion.

On the fourth day, they turned their attention to two other forces.

This time, the Wushuang Society seemed more decisive; they began their operation before the other side could react.

Under the pressure of the Peerless Society, the two small forces that had previously fought independently ultimately chose to submit after careful consideration. They knew that any resistance would be futile in the face of the Peerless Society's ruthless and cruel methods.

With the lessons of their predecessors' failures still fresh in their minds, they only longed for a glimmer of hope amidst this chaos, unwilling to fight against such a mad force.

As time went by, the fifth day arrived, and four more forces joined the ranks of the Peerless Society.

The power of the Peerless Society has expanded dramatically, rapidly growing from an insignificant group of less than ten people into a massive force with hundreds of members.

In terms of numbers, they have even surpassed forces that were once quite influential in this land, such as the Small Knife Society.

Kawahara I was quite puzzled by Chang Wei's decision. He couldn't understand why Chang Wei insisted on expanding his power and recruiting so many people.

In this resource-scarce environment, an increase in the number of people undoubtedly means an increase in food consumption, which is why many factions choose to reduce their personnel.

If they had enough food, why would they be in this situation?

However, Chang Wei's orders were like ironclad rules. Although Kawahara I had doubts, he could only obey orders and continue to recruit new members.

As the Peerless Society grew stronger, other peripheral forces such as the Small Knife Society and the Gathering Righteous Alliance began to get restless.

They joined forces in an attempt to suppress the emerging power of the Peerless Society.

However, some powerful forces with deep-rooted backgrounds chose to stand by and watch, having evolved humans backing them up, and disdained such a struggle.

In their view, the struggle between peripheral forces is nothing but child's play; as long as the evolved beings make a move, all the disputes will vanish.

Any force will submit to the evolved ones.

The Small Knife Society, the Righteous Alliance, and other forces gathered several hundred people, armed with sharp blades, and charged menacingly towards the Peerless Society.

However, when they faced Zhang Zhen, the evolved being, they instantly lost their courage.

Zhang Zhen was like an iron man, impervious to swords and spears; even the hidden pistol of the Little Knife Society leader couldn't harm him in the slightest.

Hundreds of people were instantly routed; faced with the power of the evolved beings, they didn't even have the courage to fight.

As a result, the Peerless Society suddenly became the most powerful force on the periphery, which shocked those forces with backgrounds. They never expected that an evolved being would appear in such a small force.

In this world, having evolved beings is a symbol of power.

Only such forces can gain the attention and respect of the higher-ups and establish themselves on this land.

After the Peerless Society subjugated the Little Knife Society and other forces, the news quickly reached the ears of some people in the inner circle.

"The Peerless Society?"

A man with a cold expression, dressed in military uniform, listened to his subordinate's report, a cold smile curling at the corner of his mouth.

His disdain was palpable as he shook his head dismissively. "For an evolved being to stoop to a minor faction in the outer region is a disgrace to the name of an evolved being."

Meanwhile, in another quiet villa, a middle-aged man dressed in a Zhongshan suit frowned upon hearing the news, his eyes revealing confusion.

"The Peerless Society? There are even evolved beings involved? Just who is this person? What is their intention in recruiting forces in the outer regions?"

Satomi Ishihara stood quietly to the side, a familiar figure flashing through her mind. She wanted to speak but hesitated, remembering Chang Wei's previous warning, and had no choice but to swallow her words.

"My God, an evolved being has actually stirred up a wave of unification on the periphery and even founded the Peerless Society!"

A middle-aged man with a scar on his face was shocked. Two beautiful women were massaging his legs beside him, but he had no time to pay attention to them. Evolved beings are so noble that they don't need to do things themselves. Yet this man chose to struggle for survival on the outskirts. It was truly incomprehensible.

"Boss, the Peerless Society is close to unifying the outer regions, and our Mad Blade Society's affiliated forces..." a subordinate hesitated before reporting softly.

This man is the leader of the Mad Blade Society, Mad Blade, a former criminal who became an evolved human after the apocalypse and founded the Mad Blade Society in Shinjuku City.

Mad Blade waved his hand dismissively, "He's just an evolved human, how much trouble can he cause? He'll know his limits and won't dare offend a force with an evolved human in charge. Besides, even if I don't take action, those forces won't tolerate a force that doesn't obey orders. I'm curious to see what the Peerless Society will do next."

Meanwhile, the major forces within the inner perimeter also learned of this news, and their reactions varied: some pondered deeply, some were excited, some remained silent, and others tried to win them over.

However, these are all things that people often expect.

But their goal goes far beyond that; on the seventh day, a new storm is on its way.

They are about to issue a notice to those forces with powerful backers, ordering them to either disband themselves or submit to their authority.

Even Chang Wei left his residence early in the morning to wander around the outer area.

The market has been unusually quiet due to the recent infighting among various forces.

People chose to stay at home and avoid going out, fearing they would become innocent victims.

Chang Wei, accompanied by Shadow and Little Balala, strolled casually through the outer area.

For several days, they have traversed almost every inch of the outer perimeter, except for the innermost area.

At this moment, they were walking among a cluster of somewhat dilapidated buildings, with a few simple stalls ahead.

Some stalls displayed pots and pans, while others sold items they had sourced from elsewhere, such as tables and chairs, all made of high-quality leather, but no one was buying them.

After all, in this era of food shortages, who would exchange food for these seemingly useless things?

There were even people selling clothes that looked like they'd been found in a shopping mall, with the tags still on and priced at thousands.

However, now, one can take away an item at will with just three ounces of grain.

This place was more rudimentary than anywhere Chang Wei had ever been before, but he found it fascinating.

The shadowy figure beside him was curious, not understanding why Chang Wei was so interested in the outer area and insisted on exploring every inch of it. But Chang Wei just smiled and didn't give an answer.

He had said before that he had a premonition that there was a reason he had to come here, and that feeling became even stronger after he arrived.

Besides this, Chang Wei had another purpose: to leave himself a way out.

In case of danger, his familiarity with the terrain and situation here will make both fighting and retreating much easier.

As the group continued on their way, a scene ahead suddenly caught their attention.

"If you can't hand over the grain, do you want to die?" a fierce voice rang out.

"Kimimaro, we really have no more food to hand over. Please, give us some more time!"

This was a voice they were familiar with.

When Chang Wei's ears caught that sound, his eyes lit up instantly like dazzling stars. The intensity of the light left Shadow speechless, as if he had never seen such a radiant brilliance before.

"Snap!"

A crisp slap echoed in the air, and Chang Wei's face instantly turned ashen. A chilling killing intent burst forth from his eyes, sweeping through the entire space like a storm.

The sheer intensity of this aura caused Shadow's face to turn pale instantly. He knew that even Chang Wei, when fighting that ferocious hunter, had never displayed such terrifying killing intent.

This imposing aura was like a towering mountain, pressing down on Little Balala so much that he could hardly breathe. He felt like a lone boat swaying in a storm, on the verge of capsizing at any moment.

"Is this...is this the leader's true strength?"

Little Balala was filled with horror. He looked at Chang Wei in front of him with terror, as if he were seeing a real god of death.

Although Chang Wei had punished him slightly before, he never truly grasped Chang Wei's strength.

At this moment, he felt the terrifying aura that was unmatched in the entire base city, and his heart trembled. He knew that Chang Wei's strength was probably unmatched in the entire Shinjuku City base.

A huge sense of relief welled up inside Little Guava, and she felt fortunate for her initial choice.

With such a strong backing, he believed that he would surely achieve great success in the future.

However, Chang Wei paid no attention to any of this. His eyes were sharp as he stared intently at the crowd ahead, and in a flash, he rushed into it.

There, he saw the person he had always cared about—Eriri.

Eriri had a bright red handprint on her face. She covered her face, trying to suppress the grievances and pain in her heart.

Faced with Kimimaro's aggressive questioning, she had no choice but to grit her teeth and speak coldly, trying her best to make herself look less pathetic.

"You shameless bastards!"

"Ha ha!"

Kimimaro's voice was sharp and cold, "If you don't hand over the debt today, none of you newbies will get away with this! Do you think you can afford to owe the Mad Wind Gang money?"

His men were even more arrogant, with taunts and insults rising and falling.

"Oh, this little wench is quite stubborn. But if she spends the night with Kimimaro, the fee will be waived."

"Haha, that's a good idea. This girl is really pretty."
