Upon hearing Fang Mo's statement,
Kishibe also fell into deep silence.
Actually, according to his long-held view, those with peculiar and bizarre thought processes are most suited to be Devil hunters. This is because Devils simply cannot be understood with normal thinking, hence they cannot be counter with their usual tricks.
But it was only now that Kishibe truly realized.
The theory he had formulated was equally effective against Devils.
In his many years of practice, it was his first time encountering a Devil with such an outlandish and bizarre way of thinking. Today the Devil schemes against Hayakawa Aki, tomorrow it teases Makima, and the day after it seeks some Sex Devil... Kishibe feels that all these behaviors of the Devil are utterly chaotic, without any discernible purpose.
And because of this, others simply cannot fathom what Fang Mo is really thinking.
Naturally, they cannot counter him with the usual tactics.
"Alright, I understand."
After a long silence, Kishibe finally spoke slowly: "But I have been recently training Denji and Power. If I help you find that thing, I won't have much time left."
"That's easy."
Fang Mo smiled directly: "Just leave them to me. It doesn't matter even with the two of them added, it's a good opportunity to train the team's cooperative abilities."
"Is that so?"
Kishibe's face showed no expression, he just nodded: "Then I'll leave them to you."
After saying this,
He turned and left immediately.
"Boss."
Just as Kishibe had left, the Violence Devil slowly walked over from a distance: "Who was that just now? He seems like a tough character."
"That guy is called Kishibe, apparently a former instructor of the Special Division, one of the world's strongest Devil hunters."
Fang Mo explained briefly, then clapped his hands: "Alright, enough with the questions, let's get ready for the next round, I'm about to shoot."
As soon as he finished speaking, Fang Mo already raised his hand.
He shaped his hand into a gun and aimed it at the absent-minded Angel Devil not far away. A dazzling white light quickly lit up at his fingertips.
"You bastard, don't always shoot in my direction every time!"
The Angel Devil instinctively stepped back upon seeing this, panic flickering in her sapphire-like big eyes: "Damn it, you just can't stand to see others slacking off, can you?"
"I'll shoot to obliterate!"
However, Fang Mo didn't care about this and activated his power: "Take this, the destructive spray of white light..."
As he spoke, a massive beam of white light burst out instantly. The Angel Devil, not new to such attacks, jumped fiercely, spread her wings, and narrowly dodged the giant beam.
But before the Angel Devil could catch her breath, a second light cannon followed closely.
"!!!"
The Angel Devil's pupils shrank, and she immediately flapped her wings to dodge to the side. However, the interval between the two light cannons was too short. Despite her efforts, her wings and left arm were still hit.
She uncontrollably crashed to the ground.
Seeing this from a distance, Fang Mo immediately prepared to fire a third light cannon.
But fortunately, thanks to previous special training, the members of the Fourth Special Division had developed a sense of camaraderie. As the Angel Devil was being attacked, they started to take action.
"Go for it! Touching him means winning!"
The Violence Devil shouted, then threw a punch from below upwards. Meanwhile, the Shark Devil leapt from behind and bit Fang Mo's calf.
Even Kobeni, crying, threw the kitchen knife in her hand.
But as it turned out, no matter how clever the coordination, it was useless against overwhelming firepower. Fang Mo shouted "Everyone is doomed," and with a few blows, sent them flying.
At the moment the Devils were blasted away, three Hayakawa Akis suddenly rushed from different directions.
Fang Mo waved his hand casually, and the three shadow clones were blown into a mist. He then quickly pointed his finger, blasting the real Hayakawa Aki hiding in a hole and the Angel Devil trying to sneak attack with a weapon.
"Weak."
After dealing with everyone, Fang Mo stood with his hands on his hips: "Is this all you've got and you still want to serve in the Special Division?"
"Boss, you're too strong," the fallen Violence Devil couldn't help but say: "What kind of Devil are you, Boss? How can you be so strong? This is just unbeatable, okay?"
"It's just the way it is…"
The shark Devil with his teeth shattered spoke with a slight whistle, showing a hesitant expression, "The Root of Happiness... the Happy Devil..."
"The Root of Happiness, Happy Devil, indeed."
Fang Mo smiled after hearing this, "You're right, I am indeed the legendary Happy Devil of the Root, the embodiment of all 'Happiness' in the world. Even beating you brings me joy... This is what I call percussive joy."
"..."
Everyone didn't know what to say after hearing this.
But at this moment, the sound of footsteps approached from a distance again.
A few people reluctantly turned their heads to see, and found that the arrivals were Denji in casual clothes, and the Blood Devil, Power.
"How tragic."
Power, seeing the terrible state of everyone on the ground, also began to shrink back: "Feels even more ruthless than that old man. No, I need to find a way to escape."
"Don't you dare escape."
Denji also spoke up upon hearing this: "Didn't the master say? Fang Mo's special training will let us kill that gun bastard. Miss Makima promised me a favor if I kill the gun bastard... I am super motivated right now!"
"You seem really fired up, Denji."
Fang Mo looked up at Denji and raised a finger: "Then let me give you a welcoming gift. Catch it."
"Oh!"
Denji immediately opened his arms.
"Idiot!" Hayakawa Aki, lying on the ground, yelled out: "Get out of the way!"
But it was a bit too late. A ping pong ball-sized orb of light flew over like lightning, and with a loud bang, half of Denji's head was gone, and he collapsed on the ground with a thud.
"This is today's first lesson."
Fang Mo said with a smile, "Prey should not trust the words of a hunter."
In any case, with the addition of Denji and Power, the Fourth Special Division team indeed lasted a longer time.
Fang Mo was very satisfied with the results and happily increased the training intensity for everyone. Initially, it was only as intense as a shooting game, but it eventually turned into a bullet hell game. Even the terrain near the training ground had turned into a vast basin.
Under this hellish special training, the members of the Fourth Special Division indeed made significant progress. In just under a week, their reflexes, anticipatory awareness, dodging abilities, and the level of understanding among each other had improved markedly.
Even Kobeni, the weakest among them, could now instinctively dodge bullets. Although she couldn't always avoid them, as a pure human, her achievement was impressive; at least there was no need to worry about her being killed by AOE attacks.
Unfortunately, this good time didn't last long. Just as everyone was starting to build friendships, Makima sent a message indicating that the reorganization of the Fourth Division was almost complete, so the special training had to be paused temporarily.
Of course, there was no choice in this matter, as all departments of the Special Division had been shut down during this period. The Devil hunting requests submitted by civilian Devil hunters were piling up, and these Devils were very tricky. The civilian Devil hunters, being mere mortals, couldn't handle them, so they had to wait for the Devilic Public Security to send someone.
Another issue was that the Devils had been drinking blood due to injuries sustained during training, leading to a blood shortage. Currently, Tokyo's blood banks are completely empty.
Although the police department had ordered other cities to transport blood resources and encouraged the citizens of Japan to donate blood enthusiastically, it was clear that this would take some time. Therefore, the hellish special training had to be suspended for a while.
Soon after, the members of the Fourth Special Division were all mobilized.
Hayakawa Aki teamed up with the Angel Devil, Denji and Power, Kobeni and the Violence Devil, each forming teams and beginning to hunt Devils in their respective areas frantically.
As for the Shark Devil, who was left out, it was supposed to team up with the Spider Devil, but it seemed to have been frightened by Fang Mo's earlier attack and was now mentally unstable, receiving treatment, so it couldn't join the mission.
This was unavoidable, but Hayakawa Aki, who had been making rapid progress in ninjutsu, created a shadow clone to team up with the Shark Devil. This served as both a way to accumulate combat experience and a two-for-one solution.
Thanks to the previous hellish training, all members of the Fourth Special Division had significantly improved.
The most notable improvement was... the efficiency with which these individuals hunted Devils. In just a few days, they had eradicated all the slightly stronger Devils in Tokyo.
And with everyone out hunting Devils, Fang Mo had some free time.
He had some tasks to do. The day after everyone left, Makima approached Fang Mo, asking him to cooperate with the police department to deal with the mastermind behind a previous shooting case - a local gang, as possessing firearms caused great panic among local citizens and could easily strengthen the power of the Gun Devil.
In the original story, this task was assigned to the entire Fourth Special Division.
But now, probably influenced by Fang Mo, this matter inexplicably fell upon him.
Fang Mo really lived up to Makima's expectations, directly borrowing a shadow clone from Hayakawa Aki to arrive at the mafia headquarters, a very large modern skyscraper. It is said that all the mafias are hidden here.
There was no persuasion to surrender, nor any storming in to unleash a massacre.
In front of Hayakawa Aki, Fang Mo put his hands together and released a mighty fire extinguisher.
Like a sea of flames, it surged out, destroying everything in its path, be it reinforced concrete or the mafia members hiding inside. All were obliterated in this towering inferno, turning into a wisp of dust.
"How awesome is your brother Fang?"
After burning the building to ashes, Fang Mo proudly asked Hayakawa Aki.
"This is..."
Hayakawa Aki was clearly stunned by this power, staring blankly at the sea of ashes ahead: "What kind of ninjutsu is this?"
"This is the ninjutsu I liked to use the most when I was burning boilers for the Führer back in the day. It saved him countless billions in gas expenses," Fang Mo explained with a smile: "I would like to call it 'Mighty Fire Extinguisher.'"
"Teach me."
Hayakawa Aki said earnestly.
