Dragon Raja: Starting with Deadpool, Evolving Through Devouring

Despite Miyamoto's despairing expression, another deafening roar echoed from the western sky, as if a giant cannon several kilometers in diameter had been fired. A few seconds later, the western sky was illuminated in fiery red.

Ultimately, the worst-case scenario has come to pass!

Below, there are earthquakes with continuously increasing intensity; outside, there are tsunamis constantly rising; above, there are gales and torrential rains developing towards a magnitude 13; and inside, there is the eruption of Mount Fuji, one of the world's largest active volcanoes.

As if accepting the impending doom of Japan, Miyamoto Sawa roared with all his might at everyone in the meteorological bureau:

"Everyone, run for your lives! If you don't run now, it will be too late! In this situation, air-raid shelters are useless. Run to open high ground! If you still want to do something, pray for the whole of Tokyo."

This middle-aged man, who was usually mediocre and unremarkable, suddenly became imposing and awe-inspiring at this moment, like a samurai with a long sword in hand.

at the same time.

The Tachibana family mansion, this ancient residence, has never been so lively.

All eight heads of the Snake Clan gathered together, except for those who were too far away to attend and the current head of the Uesugi Clan, Erii Uesugi, who was not suitable to be present.

Also present were many elderly members of the Snake-Gi-Hachi family who had been retired for many years.

These elderly people also have another name: supporters of former movie star Uesugi Koshi.

However, as Uesugi Kochi completely severed ties with the Snake Clan, these old fellows gradually withdrew from the front lines and chose to live in seclusion.

At the center of this group of people were three opposing figures.

The current heads of the clan are very familiar with the patriarch Tachibana Masamune and the head of the Minamoto clan, Minamoto no Chisei, as well as the former Shadow Emperor Uesugi Koshi who suddenly appeared.

Originally, the appearance of Uesugi Koshi was not a big deal for the Snake-Headed Eight Families; at most, it would just mean that he would continue to serve as the head of the Uesugi family.

However, Uesugi Kotsugu first found Genjiro, and after a heated verbal exchange, the two agreed to meet here.

“I had someone check your information on my way here.”

"Oh, what did they find out?"

"You suddenly appeared nine years ago, and somehow managed to become the head of the Snake Clan."

Who are you?!

As the questioning began, a terrifying aura emanated from Uesugi Kotsugi.

The appearance of the same royal bloodline made most of the mixed-bloods of the Snake Clan present feel like they couldn't breathe.

Tachibana Masamune, who was closest to the emperor, was naturally not unharmed and frowned slightly as he controlled his body.

Yuan Zhisheng, witnessing this scene, found himself in a dilemma.

One side is very likely to be one's biological father, and the other side is also the father who has raised and cared for one for many years.

"This matter is still unresolved; shouldn't we take our time to consider it further?"

"Damn it!"

On the surface, Tachibana Masamune appeared unmoved, but in reality, it felt like a million alpacas were stampeding through his mind.

The appearance of Uesugi Kotsushi, the former king of shadows, has completely affected the progress of his plan, and may even further threaten the core of the plan.

Tachibana Masamune racked his brains but couldn't understand why the old guy, who had disappeared for decades and was rumored to be dead, would choose to reappear at such a sensitive time.

The most troublesome thing is that this damned old man somehow found out that Genjiro, Genjiro, and Uesugi Erii are all his bloodline, which is the most troublesome thing.

With the involvement of this former movie star, the planned sibling rivalry is definitely off the table.

As for outright denial...

Tachibana Masamune would never do something so idiotic; he knew better than anyone that this was an indisputable fact.

The two sharpest weapons Herzog possesses are the two Genji brothers, who can be easily controlled after undergoing brain surgery. It is impossible for him to take the field on his own.

The old coin, who is used to hiding in the shadows and using tricks and schemes, will not make such a choice until he is completely desperate and has no other way out!

Besides!

The moment Uesugi stood before him, Herzog had already quickly compared their strengths in his mind.

The result can only be described as being completely outmatched; there is simply no comparison.

With the help of his status as the head of the Snake Clan, there's no need to even think about it. Just look at the old fogies sitting around who had once retired but rushed over as soon as they heard about Uesugi Echizen, and you'll know the outcome.

"Who I am is not important; what matters is who will lead the Snake Clan."

"Now that the former movie king has returned, it is only natural for me to step down and hand over the position of patriarch to you, Uesugi-senpai."

With limited time, Tachibana Masamune could only come up with this strategy of retreating to advance. When he met the eyes of many of the family heads, he was already certain that they were still on his side.

As the saying goes: A new emperor brings a new court!

These family heads who had already reached the pinnacle of power naturally had those who didn't want to see Uesugi Echizen return and be reshuffled and kicked out of the game.

However, to Tachibana Masamune's surprise, Uesugi Etsuko was completely unfazed by his feigned retreat. He casually patted Genji's shoulder and declared loudly:

"The future of the Snake Clan should be shouldered by my son, Genjiro! As for this old man, I should make it up to my son and daughter."

"After I leave, I'm going to that damned Ganryu Research Institute to bring her home. What do you take my daughter for? A research subject?"

The calloused palm-leaf fan repeatedly slapped the floor, creating a tremor that everyone present could clearly feel.

Some people who were seeing the former King of Shadows for the first time exaggeratedly mistakenly thought that this was the strength of Uesugi Kotsugu, that every move he made could cause such great power.

However, as Uesugi Koshi stopped moving, the tremors not only did not stop, but instead seemed to intensify.

The next instant, a piercing alarm ripped through the skies above Tokyo, the high-decibel sound echoing from station to station.

Someone sounded the air raid siren, and for more than ten seconds, the piercing siren echoed throughout the vast city of Tokyo.

The next second, various mobile phone brands' text message notification sounds rang out. This was an alert sent by the Tokyo Meteorological Bureau to all citizens, and the alert content was extremely simple:

"Attention citizens! An unprecedentedly powerful tsunami is about to hit Tokyo Bay. Please evacuate to high ground if possible!"

In fact, all of this can be considered a belated attempt to salvage the situation.

The first wave of the tsunami had already struck Tokyo before this, but thanks to Japan's experience in disaster prevention, which is prone to natural disasters, the advance preparations were effective.

In particular, the existence of the "Iron Dome," a large-scale drainage system for Tokyo personally supervised by the Maruyama Construction Company of the Hebihachi family, alleviated the flooding of the entire Tokyo city in a very short period of time.

Just as these family heads were about to take out their phones to contact their subordinates to inquire about the situation or organize an evacuation, the atmospheric ionization phenomenon sweeping across the entire island began to interfere with wireless communication equipment.

Realizing what had happened, everyone quickly ran from the room to the courtyard to check the situation.

The moonlight vanished completely, lights came on in every household, and the city trembled in the face of some impending disaster.

"What on earth is going on?"

There were only two people present: Herzog, who had been planning for many years and had in-depth knowledge of countless materials, and Uesugi Koshi, the Shadow Emperor, who knew countless secrets of the Snake Clan's heritage.

Realizing something, both of them had ashen faces, looking extremely ugly.

"Everyone, there is only one possibility for the appearance of such a catastrophic phenomenon." Uesugi Koshi's eerily gloomy voice rang out among the crowd.

So much so that everyone's attention was instantly focused on him, hoping to get a definite answer.

"God..."

"He has awakened for some reason!"

boom!

Just then, a bolt of lightning ripped through the dark sky, illuminating Uesugi Kotsugi's dark face.

For those present, it was no secret that the Snake Clan were descendants of gods; however, for these descendants, the awakening of a god was never a good thing!

The gifts of fate are always secretly marked with stakes.

The White King made a pact with humanity, bestowing upon them blood and bones so that he could one day awaken and reclaim his power from these bloodlines.

To put it simply, once the White King truly awakens, the first to be slaughtered will undoubtedly be these half-bloods of the Snake Clan, without exception!

"Now that the gods have awakened, let us slay them!"

"A newborn calf is not afraid of a tiger," was the first phrase that Genjiro squeezed out from between his teeth.

However, after saying this, a look of confusion appeared on his face, because he didn't even know what the so-called gods looked like or where they awoke, so talking about killing gods was just nonsense.

However, Genjiro's words were a revelation to Uesugi Koshi.

Others might not know, but this former Shadow Emperor knew it all too well: "I know, the sacred remains of a god are sealed within..."

However, Uesugi Kotsushi stopped halfway through his speech, his expression turning ashen, because he realized that even knowing the location of the Holy Relic seemed to be of no use.

"Why did you stop talking?" one of the family heads asked directly.

"Because there's no time left! The appearance of an anomaly means that it has already awakened, not that it is about to awaken. There is a qualitative difference between the two."

Uesugi gave everyone a bitter smile, realizing that he was incredibly unlucky and his life was quite a failure.

He failed in his attempt to ensure that the responsibility for the Shadow Emperor's bloodline would end in his own hands.

They had finally learned they had offspring, but hadn't even fully acknowledged them yet, when the gods awoke.

Tell me, who can I complain to about this?!

"Then what should we do? Just do nothing and watch Japan sink?" Genji was as anxious as an ant on a hot pan.

Let alone people like Genjiro, even Herzog, the hidden old coin, has the urge to curse out loud!

If it were Uesugi Koshi's appearance, it might only have disrupted the plan, and there would still be a possibility of making amends.

So the White King's sudden awakening completely overturned the entire plan, and at this stage, he was not prepared with the power to kill the White King at all.

Look at this awakening, it's a phenomenon akin to a natural disaster. One can only imagine the immense power the White King will possess after awakening; it's not something an ordinary hybrid can handle.

All the plans Herzog had made in Japan over the years had come to naught at this moment, and Herzog was already considering leaving.

For the old coin, as long as the person is still alive, there is still a chance.

If we don't leave now and sink into the sea with Japan, there will truly be no future.

"This is the destiny of the Snake Clan! From now on, we will concentrate all our strength and wait for the White King to awaken so that we can fight to the death."

"We will either accomplish the feat of slaying a god in the shortest time, or we will fail..."

Uesugi Kotsushi didn't finish his sentence, but even without mentioning the consequences of failure, everyone was perfectly clear about what would happen.

"Take Erii with you, she is our last hope!"
