Chapter 192 – 137: Player Team VS the Superhero “Ji Feng Warrior
Japan ti, 6:15 PM.
In a Japanese izakaya under the Black Tengu Club, Ke Mingye and five other players were seated in the innermost booth, planning the Superheroes assassination plan for tonight.
“According to the intelligence, Ji Feng will et with a group of gang mbers in Shinjuku Ward in one hour. We’ll intercept them halfway. The nearby surveillance caras and phones will be disabled by signal jamrs, so don’t worry about being fild, just go ahead and do it.”
The Top Bull had a cigarette dangling from his lips as he spoke slowly.
“Also, Ji Feng is rated C in the system. Among his twelve bodyguards, ten are well-trained ordinary people with guns; the other two are a D-ranked and an E-ranked Superhuman bodyguards sent by the gang, nad Kawamoto Sosuke and Amiya Naoto respectively.”
“Ten mundanes, one D-ranked, one E-ranked, one C-ranked,” Fan Quan said, “We hold the advantage in intelligence and initiative. Even though they have a C-ranked, it shouldn’t be too difficult to deal with. If we get to the location early for an ambush, using control-based Skills and nurical advantage, as long as we coordinate not too poorly, we can completely incapacitate them without even needing to engage in direct combat.”
“That’s right…” Top Bull nodded in agreent.
As Ke Mingye picked up a slice of salmon sashimi with his chopsticks and dipped it in mustard, he asked as he brought it to his mouth, “Are just the six of us carrying out this assassination plan?”
“Yes, the Anti-Superhuman Organization wants to prove the potential role players might have in the future.” Top Bull said, “So I’ve promised the higher-ups that we six players alone can complete this assassination plan. You can consider this mission as their assessnt of us. If we succeed in earning their trust, it could lead to deeper cooperation in the future.”
“Sounds kind of fishy, feels like we are being used.” Ke Mingye said while chewing on the salmon.
“No, it’s a mutually beneficial relationship since our goals align—to eliminate the Superhumans.”
Fan Quan said, pushing up his glasses.
A Zhe and Ju Zipi remained silent, the forr quietly sipping a small drink, the latter cradling the scabbard of the Demon Sword Muramasa in his arms and sitting still.
Both preferred not to speak in such situations; they played the role of enforcers in the team, and A Zhe trusted Top Bull enough, while Ju Zipi trusted Fan Quan enough, so they typically left decisions to them.
Qing ng, head down, fiddled with her phone, asking nonchalantly, “Anyway, I have no objections, when do we start?”
“We should head out now.” Top Bull said.
“Where to?”
“Shinjuku.”

Japan ti, 6:50 PM, Tokyo, Shinjuku Ward.
At twilight, the sun setting in the west steeped the clouds in a wine-red hue.
The horizon was shrouded in the dimness of dusk, with the silhouette of Mount Fuji barely visible. The massive orb of the sun slowly descended from the peak towards the earth, withdrawing the city’s splattering twilight, to be replaced by neon lights that slowly lit up like a domino effect.
At this mont, Ji Feng, dressed in a light purple kimono with his eyes covered by a black cloth, walked slowly along the neon-flickering streets.
He kept his left hand in the neckline of his kimono and carried a bag in his right hand. The bag contained seven tachi swords with only the handles visible, nacing enough to deter anyone.
Around Ji Feng were twelve bodyguards dressed in black suits and wearing sunglasses. Pedestrians covered their mouths, lifting their phones to take pictures with goofy smiles, the flash from their caras clicking incessantly, overshadowing the off-key comrcial jingles.
“What did the family say?” Ji Feng asked as he walked forward.
“They’ll be here in half an hour. We’ll wait for them in the underground bar nearby.” Amiya Naoto answered.

Upon hearing this, Ji Feng slowly said, “Then, we’re not in a rush, just take it slow.”
“I really don’t get you big family folks.” Kawamoto Sosuke said, “Is it necessary to talk in person? Wouldn’t a text ssage suffice?”
Amiya Naoto snorted coldly and said, “You don’t understand, Kawamoto. The Amiya family pushed my brother to this position, making him a representative figure of the Superhero Association to demonstrate their power and influence to other families and consolidate their dominance in the gang world. Now that my brother is closely tied to the reputation of the Superhero Association, the association has to consider our Amiya family’s face in whatever they do.”
Ji Feng sarcastically said, “Bro, let’s not discuss such dangerous topics out here, you might as well talk about how much protection money you collected in Kabukicho today.”
“Ha, now that you’re a big shot, you don’t recognize as your brother anymore, talking in that tone.”
“I’m stronger and more potential than you are, that’s why the family chose . It’s such a simple logic; can’t you understand that?”
“Yeah, yeah, yeah.”
Amiya Naoto said irritably, pulling out a cigarette from his pocket and placing it in his mouth.
To avoid attracting further attention, they slowly turned into an alley, pulling out two ard bodyguards to guard the entrance and prevent pedestrians from following and filming.
At that very mont, above that alley, behind a fashion billboard, six figures hid in the shadows.
