Ieyasu has no experience, but Tatsumi, who has talked with Yuri countless times, has a mature tone and momentum.
It is very troublesome to enter the city now. Because of the influence of Minato Namikaze, a large number of officials and merchants died, and now the soldiers inside and outside the city are strictly checking everyone. However, the appearance of Tatsumi and Ieyasu was not exposed. After entering the imperial capital, the two did not act recklessly but walked normally like passersby.
While walking, Tatsumi suddenly saw a familiar person.
Leone, a blonde woman with revealing clothes, was there when he met the assassins that night.
Leone, who was walking, felt Tatsumi's gaze, and her pupils shrank the moment she saw him. She was an assassin of the Night Raid, specializing in assassinating those who were unjust in the town or had a major impact on the resistance.
But the failure of this assassination, and the "miracle" launched by Minato Namikaze, directly brought the entire Night Raid to a standstill. All the people who were planned to be assassinated died, and those who were not in the plan and even had contact with Night Raid also died.
Night Raid could not find any pattern at all among these people who died. Officials, nobles, merchants, civilians—all of them. What puzzled them was that the little Emperor was not dead, and General Bud was not dead either.
Even General Bud was just unconscious after fighting with the woman who looked stronger than Esdeath, and he was not even injured when he woke up.
Considering the current situation in the imperial capital, Night Raid is now in a free-to-act state, without any missions, and everyone can act at will, but any behavior that could expose themselves is prohibited.
Leone thought that she was free anyway, so she came out for a drink, and who did she see? One of the group of people who did the massacre.
"Hello, little brother!"
"Hello."
Leone smelled the other person's breath, which was very strange. The other person's breath seemed to be that of a bigshot but also like an ordinary swordsman. Generally speaking, there is only one possibility for this situation: that a high ranking official did not disguise himself as a civilian well. Combined with what she saw that day, she directly confirmed her idea.
"Hehe~ Such a cute guy~ Shall we do something fun?"
While talking, she tried to seduce Tatsumi with her body. If it was Tatsumi of yesterday, he would be 100% seduced. Although he has a childhood sweetheart, Sayu, in his life, he is too familiar with her and doesn't feel anything even in the most intimate actions.
But if it was a mature woman, Tatsumi days ago would definitely be shy or even fascinated. But now, the moment he was hugged, he actually thought of the bald man.
Yuri's advice appeared in his ears.
"We can have desires, but in the process of achieving our goals, we should not be controlled by other desires."
This was originally said to Tatsumi, who caused the death of two PsiCorps because he was greedy in his moves, but for some reason, he felt that this sentence was just right for here.
The original soft touch made Tatsumi feel like he was touching ordinary flesh and fat, and the physiological impulse was successfully suppressed by his brain.
"Please let me go."
"Tsk, boring."
Leone didn't dare to mess around. The power displayed by Minato Namikaze and Kushina that night was already a psychological shadow for Night Raid. Some of them even felt that fighting was meaningless and it was better to wait for death in the face of such a strong man.
This is why they were released to relax. Facing such a god-like existence really destroyed their mentality.
Tatsumi didn't let Leone go. He asked directly: "Are you from the imperial capital?"
"Yes~ Do you need me to do anything? But I need a reward."
"Take me to the slums. I need some people who can work for me."
At this moment, she was silent. She looked at Tatsumi vigilantly and asked, "What are you going to do?"
"I want them to be well fed, I want them to have a safe living environment, and I want to overthrow the emperor and the nobles."
"What?"
Leone was shocked. She looked into Tatsumi's eyes. Although there was no expression on his face, his eyes were serious, without any evasion or turbidity.
"How will you do it?"
"I have this."
Tatsumi took out a piece of 'cookie,' which was made in the food processing plant built by the base vehicle.
Leone took it and stuffed it directly into her mouth. The slightly bitter taste was not delicious, but it was not difficult to swallow. As a killer, she knew that this was a food that could quickly provide energy and satiety to the body.
For those poor people who can't even eat enough, this alone is enough to make them work hard.
"What do you want to do?"
"I want to make more food and more clothes. I need manpower, and I need absolutely loyal manpower."
Tatsumi didn't reveal his intelligence. Although they had met once, the other party was still a stranger, and he had to be wary of strangers. This was what Yuri emphasized to him when he was advancing the Mental Omega plot. As a result, he controlled the PsiCorp to use psychic power in front of the crowd, which led to the exposure of the action and the failure of a mission.
Leone was conflicted, but considering the powerful strength behind Tatsumi and the magic of this food, she nodded.
"I know where it is. You won't hurt them, right?"
"Yes, I will never hurt any innocent people at any time. I just want to give them jobs that can provide them with stable food."
"Okay, I'll take you there."
Being born in the slums, Leone naturally knew how cruel the slums were. She led Tatsumi to the slums.
Leone led them to the alleys of dilapidated houses, turning left and right. Leone stretched out her hand: "People here are willing to do anything for you as long as you give them food, anything..."
Men, women, and children. Elderly? Civilians may still live to old age, but if they are poor, they will never live to old age in this life. The average age of people in the slums is less than fifteen years old because slightly older women can sell themselves and men can be cheap labor.
Only adults with physical disabilities or diseases and children who have no autonomy at all are abandoned here. They have only one goal: to fill their stomachs and survive.
Looking at these people, Tatsumi took a deep breath. "Help me find five suitable people."
"Okay."
Although Tatsumi is younger than her, Leone feels like she has been seen through from the inside out when she stands in front of Tatsumi.
In fact, this is just because Tatsumi has faced the bald man Yuri too many times. He has been seen through to his core and has developed a demeanor similar to Yuri. This demeanor makes people subconsciously feel that the other party knows the color of their underwear.
But in fact, what Tatsumi's brain is thinking now is 'it is really big'.
Yes, his brain can control his body from being affected by desire, but now when someone helps him, he still can't help but complain.
As for taking a few more glances? It's totally unnecessary. Compared with the body, he is now more looking forward to the opening of the Internet cafe tomorrow and having an in-depth exchange with the political commissar.
