Chapter 268 - Finding the gate

After consuming the Tsubaki and Higanbana flower paste, Kaneki's eyes turned to a compass shape and when he looks at a certain direction his eyes turn green.

When it happened everyone knew it was pointing to the "gate" to where Akuma Castle is and now they are currently heading to said gate.

Kaneki: I can't wait! I wanna see this gate so badly!

Shino: wow, you really look excited Kaneki.

Kaneki: hell yeah I am!

Natsuki: focus on the road we don't want to crash.

Kaneki: know what? Now that you mentioned it, it might be faster if we fly.

Everyone: huh?

Kaneki: if you're afraid of heights buckle up and close your eyes! We're flying out way there!

Chikao: got it! You heard him guys!

Everyone started to buckle up their seat belts.

Kaneki: everyone ready?

Yuuka: yup!

Kaneki: good! Boom boom!

Sachi: yup, he really is excited.

Kaneki: alright, Flight mode on.

Kaneki activated Higanbana kaze's flight mode and the van began to change.

Rattle!

Miku: Wow! Everything is shaking!

Azusa: is this even safe?

Kaneki: don't worry, it's completely safe. Anyways, if you look to your sides you'll see that we're starting to lift off.

Yuuka: wow! We really are lifting off!

Ku-kun: Wa!

They started flying.

Sachi: Wow, are those wings?!

Kaneki: yup, I added wings for more lift, and right now Higanbana Kaze is a plane.

Ryueki: what?! What if the air fo-

Kaneki: don't worry, this bad boy doesn't have any weapons on it and since it was originally a Soaring Dragon, if it ever gets detected it'll only show up as a Soaring Dragon.

Yuuka: wow, where did you even get the extra parts for this?

Kaneki: I asked one of my Sensei's.

Yuuka just looked at Kaneki and asked.

Kaneki: how many Sensei's for you even have?

Kaneki: that remains confidential.

Yuuka: ehh?

Kaneki: anyways, to the gate!

They then started flying to the gate's location.

15 minutes later*

Kaneki: alright, we're close.

Shino: Woah, it's Mt. Niseikaushuppe

Chikao: it's so beautiful.

Yuuka: so it's near here?

Kaneki: yup, I pro-

Kaneki stoppedid sentence and then, he began to bring the plane down.

Ryueki: hey! What the hell are you doing?!

Kaneki: we're really close! I can feel it!

Chikao: how close?!

Kaneki: very close! Hold tight guys!

Kaneki continued to descent and then he stopped and began hovering the plane on top of a field.

Yuuka: this is the place?

Keiko: wow, this place is so desolate.

Sachi: Yeah, there's no buildings or any sign of civilization at all just a big field.

Yuuka: is this the place?

Kaneki: yes, we should get off for now.

Natsuki: but we're still hovering.

Kaneki: oh yeah, I'll land it.

Kaneki landed and they all got off.

Ryueki: this is the place? It's kinda underwhelming.

Kaneki: Yeah this is definitely the place we need to be.

Azusa: agreed, I can feel power lingering around here, it may be weak but there definitely is some power here for a very long time.

Yuuka: really? How much?

Kaneki: not much, but this whole field is covered in it, that's a good sign. Alright let's go fi- huh? Who's that?

Everyone: huh?

Kaneki saw someone but when everyone else looked at the direction he was looking at they saw no one.

Ryueki: are you going crazy? There's no one there.

Kaneki: no, there is look.

Yuuka: I can assure you there's no one there.

Kaneki: really? What is going o-

Before he could finish talking he saw someone walk pass through him.

Kaneki: wha- no way!

Kaneki then started running.

Sachi: hey where are you going?!

Chikao: Kaneki?!

Seeing him running out of nowhere both Sachi and Chikao began chasing him.

Yuuka: hey! Guys follow them!

Shino: got it!

Miku: let's go!

Everyone else then followed.

Sachi: hey! Where are you going?!

Kaneki: I don't know! I'm just following that person who walked through me!

Ryueki: he's completely went crazy!

Yuuka: I don't think that's the case! He might be seeing memories!

Shino: what?!

Itsuki: what do you mean?!

Yuuka: there are some cases of people seeing memories that don't belong to them! Inherited memories a certain memories passed down from one generation to the next through genetics although rare they can occur, and right now Kaneki must be experiencing it after landing here!

Azusa: that is the most probable cause, if cousin is running after someone's image it might be Demon Higanbana!

Natsuki: so that means, we're heading to the gate!

Shino: In that case, Kaneki! Full speed ahead!

Kaneki: !!!

Kaneki continued to follow the image of the person they continued run for a minute straight until Kaneki began slowing down.

Kaneki: no way.

Kaneki then stopped.

Yuuka: HAAAH!

Shino: chasing after Kaneki is really difficult!

Miku: Yeah, Higanbana-kun is too fast!

Sachi: man that was tiring!

Chikao: too fast!

Itsuki: at least we stopped!

Keiko: yeah!

Azusa: that wasn't too tiring for me.

Emi: yeah, same here.

Ryueki: how the heel are you two not tired?!

Kaneki: guys, I think we're at our destination.

Everyone looked up and saw an old house.

Ryueki: this is the place?

Kaneki: you guys stay back, I'll go in.

Everyon: okay.

Kaneki then went inside the old house.

Kaneki: wow, this place is so old. This must be my great I don't know how many greats grandfather house.

Bling!

Kaneki: what the?

Something shined at Kaneki's eye.

Kaneki went the source and saw.

Kaneki: is this it?

He saw a lever with a symbol.

Kaneki then went outside the house again.

Kaneki: guys! I saw a lever!

Yuuka: did you pull it?

Kaneki: no!

Sachi: pull it!

Kaneki: are you sure?

Azusa: we must be sure that it would lead us to the gate!

Kaneki: okay then!

Kaneki then went back inside.

Kaneki: Haaa~ here we go.

Kaneki then pulled the lever.

Rumble!

Kaneki: Woah! What's happening?!

Everythinh started shaking and Kaneki ran outside.

Sachi: did you pull it?!

Kaneki: I did!

Itsuki: what's happening?!

Kaneki: I don't know!

Yuuka: you might've opened something!

Yuuka looked behind her and saw.

Yuuka: hey look!

They all looked at the field and saw a big hole forming.

Kaneki: what the?!

The shaking stopped and the hole stayed open.

Kaneki: Azusa! Can you check that sink hole in a bird's eye view?

Azusa: sure!

Azusa then flew on top of the hole and saw nothing just darkness.

Azusa then flew down to everyone to tell them what she saw.

Azusa: the hole is really deep and not only that, I could feel an immense power within it, it is most likely the gate.

Kaneki: really?! I better check it out myself!

Sachi: stay safe!

Natsuki: be careful.

Kaneki: Dragon transmutation, Wyvern!

Kaneki ran and turned into a wyvern and flew inside the hole.

Yuuka: he is really excited huh?

Emi: who wouldn't? Akuma Castle is the base of the Demon knights and it also has a power that is completely unknown.

Azusa: yeah, it may not look like it but I'm dying to see Akuma Castle as well.

Shino: let's just hope Kaneki comes back.

Ryueki: just hope he doesn't get trapped there.

Miku: Don't say stuff like that!

Ryueki: sorry.

Whoosh!

Roooaaaaar!

Kaneki flew out of the hole, he then landed and turned back to normal with a smile on his face.

Chika: so what did you see?

Sachi: anything?

Yuuka: was there a gate?!

Kaneki just smiled and said.

Kaneki: Hahahah!

Natsuki: Higanbana-kun?

Kaneki: We did it! We found the gate!

Everyonewas happy hearing that and all of them (besides Ryueki) started jumping in excitement.

Sachi: we did it!

Shino: we're going to see Akuma Castle!

Miku: I can't wait!

Natsuki: awesome!

Itsuki & Keiko: we did it!

Ryueki: that's great.

Emi: let's do our best everyone.

Azusa: I'll finally see the real Akuma Castle... I can't wait!

With everyone celebrating Kaneki announced something.

Kaneki: alright, let's go to the hotel now and rest! Once we've rested let's get the crown of Urizen!

Yuuka: congratulations Kaneki you'll be able to get the Crown for Miyu-chan soon.

Kaneki: nah it will be us! All of you because Itadori, helped after all!

Everyone: Hahahaha!

Ryueki: tch.

They finally found the gate now the real expedition begins.

Meanwhile*

???: they found the gate and those kids there, should we attack now?

???: not yet, wait until they go in then we'll attack.

???: yessir.

The looming danger is coming closer.
