Chapter 724: Akamatsu’s Praise
At this time, on the other side, Kururugi Genbu, the Six Families of Kyoto, and even Akamatsu were all present, but they were clearly divided. Akamatsu sat on one side with his adjutant, and Kururugi Genbu sat on the other side with the Six Families of Kyoto.
"What a shame, Akamatsu." Kururugi Genbu broke the deadlock and spoke first. As expected, he started with ridicule and accusations.
"I will not shirk responsibility for the failure of this exercise. It was indeed me who underestimated that kid."
"Yang Hui? Haha, he is just a teenager." One of the Six Families of Kyoto said sarcastically.
"Haha, little kid? Haha, hahaha!" Akamatsu laughed, his laughter full of contempt and disdain for the six families of Kyoto, "a little kid who can defeat Fujido head-on, a little kid who has the world's best Knightmare driving skills, a little kid who can kill through the Itsukushima base so easily."
"Isn't this your incompetence, Akamatsu?"
"Look, the high and mighty six families of Kyoto are still making their own little calculations, only looking at their own little piece of land, and are unwilling to look up and see what the world is like now."
"Akamatsu! Watch your words! "Resign!"
"Resign? Oh! I understand." Akamatsu smiled coldly and continued, "Family heads, Prime Minister, please lower your proud heads and face the reality, how about that?" Halfway through, Akamatsu pretended to be puzzled, "Well... this statement doesn't seem to be right. Yang Hui is the hottest prince of Bnitalia. In terms of status... he should be above you, right? Then why can't you see it? Is it because of old eyesight? Or is the angle of raising your head not enough?"
"Bang~!"
"Akamatsu!" The people of the six families in Kyoto are all people who are used to being high and mighty. How can they bear such an insult? Cornelia and the others dare not provoke them, but Akamatsu and the others don't take it seriously!
"Haha, what? Did you hit the sore spot?" Akamatsu asked disdainfully.
"Hmph! Fujido's failure was..."
"...colluded with Bunitaria? Haha, you are not insulting my intelligence by giving me this excuse in this situation, but your own."
"Akamatsu! You..."
"Okay!" Kururugi Genbu stopped the furious head of the family and stopped the explosion of gunpowder, "Calm down, everyone, we are not here to quarrel!"
"...Hmph!"
"Akamatsu, tell me what you think of Yang Hui." Kururugi Genbu asked Akamatsu. Although they had seen Yang Hui, they did not have any contact with Yang Hui. Yang Hui had been following Cornelia, not talking much, not looking much, as if he was not interested in everything around him.
Only Akamatsu had talked directly with Yang Hui and had a direct duel with Yang Hui, so Akamatsu was the one who knew Yang Hui best among the people present.
"... a very scary person." Although Kururugi Genbu is a conservative and a peace advocate, Akamatsu and Kururugi Genbu only have different political views and ideas, and there is no deep hatred. Since the other party gave him a way out, he took the opportunity to step down.
"How scary?" Kururugi Genbu continued to ask.
"First, comprehensive ability, terrible personal strength, excellent command ability, and... scientific research ability. According to the intelligence I received, the upgrade of Bunitaliya Knightmare was led by him, and there are four special machines, which are also his work.
Second, achievements. He was once called the "Nanny Prince" by the nobles of Bunitaliya because of his mediocrity. Until two years ago, he shone brightly in the African battlefield, broke the deadlock, and won a key opportunity for Bunitaliya's victory. To be frank, without him, the African battlefield would not have fallen. Then, in this exercise, the entire "Pirate" team was led by him, and it can be seen from his action style.
Third, mind, a young man under the age of twenty knows how to keep a low profile, hide himself in the deep palace, and then seize the opportunity to soar to the sky.
Fourth, that is, the age you mentioned, he... is not yet twenty years old."
After listening to Akamatsu's opinion, even those who had quarreled with Akamatsu before did not refute, but lowered their heads to think, with a terrible look on their faces.
The previous quarrel was just a face-saving dispute between political enemies, but are there really fools who can achieve this position now? Do they really not know that Fujido Kagami Shiro did not betray? Do they really not know how terrible Yang Hui, Cornelia, and Bunitaliya are?
"We must get rid of him!" said the head of the Tsuchimikado family of the Six Families in Kyoto. He was thin and gloomy, and happened to be the one who was responsible for the dirty work.
"It's difficult." Akamatsu shook his head, "I know, Tsuchimikado, your family has been responsible for the cleaning work in the dark, but what I want to say is... my elite commandos can't take a single move in front of him. They have a very agile sense of crisis and a strong sense of the surroundings. This is the record left by my people when they captured him in the town. You can take a look first."
The crowd did not object and began to watch the video records of the chase in the town. Although it was intermittent, they could also see a lot of clues.
"…How on earth did he do it?" After watching it, the face of the head of the Tsuchimikado family became even uglier. From the video recordings, Yang Hui had sensed the arrival of danger in advance more than once. He could even easily distinguish between ordinary people and soldiers without relying on any external force. Several deadly traps were avoided because of his advance perception. This was no longer a phenomenon that science could explain clearly.
"I don't know. Maybe there are things in this world that we don't know about." Akamatsu shrugged. At first, he saw Yang Hui as a younger generation with courage, high execution and strong personal strength, but after experiencing failure, he praised Yang Hui as much as possible. He was no longer an equal opponent, but a god that he could not defeat.
Because only in this way, in order to defeat Yang Hui, Akamatsu just went back to understand everything about Yang Hui, and then from this "everything", find his flaws and find a way to defeat him.
"Let's not talk about this, what should we do now?" Tsuchimikado continued, "He is not even 20 years old now. If he continues to grow, who can still defeat him?"
"..." Everyone was speechless. Yang Hui's performance was already very scary, but in their eyes, Yang Hui was still a little kid and would continue to grow. Now he was so amazing, how could he continue to grow?
"Send someone to try." A family head suggested.
"I agree."
Even Akamatsu nodded. He didn't think the assassination arranged by the head of the Tsuchimikado family would work, but it would be okay to try. Although it would arouse vigilance, it would also allow Yang Hui to show more and allow them to observe more. Only by knowing yourself and the enemy can you win every battle.
"By the way, there is one thing I want to ask clearly. I hope you can answer me truthfully without hiding anything." Akamatsu suddenly thought of something and felt it was very necessary to get an answer immediately.
"What is it?" Kurumi Genbu asked.
"Do you have Fujido's family?"
Hearing this, Kurumi Genbu and others were stunned for a moment, looked at each other, and their faces became quite ugly, because one of their previous guesses became a reality.
Akamatsu also got the answer from their expressions, and his face immediately sank: "It seems that everyone has understood."
"... I will send someone to investigate."
"Yes, I dare not sleep peacefully without checking it out."
"I didn't expect it, I really didn't expect it, it can be done to this extent in our country, it's really hard to imagine."
"Damn Bunitalia!"
In the country of cherry blossoms, there are only two big mountains, the conservatives and the young and vigorous factions, who can make people disappear without knowing it, and there is no trace of them. Apart from them... there is only Bunitalia, which is a behemoth in the world.
"... If possible, I want to go back to Fujido's family." Akamatsu said to Kururugi Genbu and others.
"Reason?" In the eyes of Kururugi Genbu and others, Fujido Kagamishiro is already a dead man. The dead do not need any attention, and even his family does not need attention. Although they don't know why Bunitalia took Fujido Kagamishiro's family away, they don't care about their life or death.
"Just think of it as compensation for Fujido." Akamatsu sighed and said.
Everyone present knew that Fujido Kagamishiro could not betray Sakura Country, but in order to calm the public anger, he was needed to take on the responsibility, so it was no longer important whether he betrayed or not.
Fujido Kagamishiro was Akamatsu's right-hand man. Although they had different ideas and wills, they were close friends. He could not protect Fujido Kagamishiro, so out of guilt, he had to take good care of his family.
"... Go by yourself." Kururugi Genbu's meaning was very clear. If you go to Bunitaria to ask for someone, we will not hinder you, but we will not provide you with any help.
"... Thank you very much." Akamatsu also knew that this was a concession made by Kururugi Genbu and others, because Akamatsu going to Bunitaria to ask for someone would not benefit Sakura Country in any way and might even cause trouble.
"Then let's stop here. The second phase of the confrontation exercise should not be held. After it ends tomorrow, we will send them away from Sakura Country."
"Yes."
The others felt relieved when they thought that Cornelia and Yang Hui were about to leave Sakura Country. It didn't matter what the other party's attitude was now. The important thing was that no one liked to have two man-eating tigers living at home.
It was Akamatsu, and only Akamatsu, who felt that things were not so simple and did not think they could be sent away so easily. After all... if they really just came to participate in the joint military exercise, why did they choose the Itsukushima base? Why did they take the initiative to break the rules of the show?
Akamatsu believed that everything Yang Hui did was not meaningless, and they all acted to achieve a certain purpose.
"General."
"Let's go... see Fujido for the last time."
"Yes."
