Cleaner Authority (3K-Character Mega Chapter, Please Subscribe)

"Urgh—pfft!"

Kuwabara Kazuo’s chest felt stiflingly tight, and he opened his mouth and vomited a large mouthful of blood.

Yamazaki Anzu, who had been blasted away alongside him, lay seven or eight meters away. Her Reinforcement Suit had shriveled up, the liquid in its buttons completely drained. It was impossible to tell whether she was alive or dead.

Kuwabara Kazuo struggled to sit up, but after two attempts, he failed both times. He could only lie sprawled on the ground, his blurred gaze sweeping over his surroundings.

The renowned Hanshin Koshien Stadium was now littered with corpses—whether they were the yokai corpses they had shot dead earlier, or the Black Ball Team members who had made their dramatic entrance only moments ago.

They were scattered haphazardly everywhere.

In the sky, the long-haired figure slowly descended. Then, as though searching for something, he walked past the corpses one by one.

You have obtained Drop Card ×7

Bai Cangshu made a rough calculation. The chance of these ordinary Plot Characters dropping cards was over one-third.

Compared to previous mission worlds, where only killing named characters gave a relatively high chance of obtaining Drop Cards, these supporting characters who had not even been named in the original work normally had less than a 5% chance of dropping one.

He became increasingly satisfied with the Purge Mission issued by the space.

Not only did killing Reincarnation Star People yield Scarlet Drop Cards gleaming with special golden motes, but killing Plot Characters also had a high chance of granting rewards.

And every hour, the space thoughtfully revealed the enemy coordinates for him.

Wonderful!

In his delight, Bai Cangshu casually tore off a section from the nearby yokai corpse that resembled a patterned giant serpent.

This scene made the crowd, who had only now cautiously emerged from inside the stadium, lower their heads in fear.

Inside the stadium, they had witnessed Bai Cangshu kill the Centipede Demoness, a yokai with the upper body of a human woman, and then cook and eat her yokai body. It had dealt them a tremendous mental shock.

So humans could eat yokai too, not just the other way around…

Of course, they were not certain whether this messenger they had "summoned" even counted as human.

Bai Cangshu collected the Drop Cards as he went, crushing them one after another.

You used Drop Card (White)

You obtained 347 Dimensional Points

You used Drop Card (Blue)

You obtained 630 Dimensional Points

You obtained Item: X-Gun (Blue)

Bai Cangshu kept opening them. This group’s Drop Cards were generally low-grade, with the best only being blue, but the items they yielded were remarkably powerful.

X-Gun

Quality: Rare

Description: A weapon created by an advanced civilization from another world. Exceptionally powerful.

Range: Short; Rate of Fire: Average; Power: High

Effect 3: If the item's button is destroyed, or it suffers an excessively powerful impact within a short period, the Reinforcement Suit will be damaged and become ineffective.

...

Gravity Gun

Quality: Rare

Description: A weapon created by an advanced civilization from another world. Capable of generating gravity waves.

Range: Short; Rate of Fire: Average; Power: Extreme

Effect 1: After locking onto a target area, gravity waves descend from the sky and crush that area.

Effect 2: Requires no ammunition and can fire continuously.

Although Bai Cangshu had not become a member of the Black Ball Team, he quickly obtained three outstanding Technology Faction items through the Drop Cards.

Besides the black Reinforcement Suit, the other two firearms possessed unique advantages compared with the common firearms and even Gauss weapons found in the space.

And these were merely the most basic technologies bestowed by the Multi-Faced Star People.

Among Reincarnation Star People, Bai Cangshu was probably among those least familiar with and accepting of Technology Faction items.

He had been born with an exceptionally powerful physique. The first world he entered after arriving in the space had been the Dragon Ball World, and afterward, he had constantly pursued martial arts and transcendent physical power.

He had only used firearms a few times during the early stages.

Bai Cangshu turned the X-Gun over in his hand. Even a Reincarnation Star Person like him, with no particular shooting specialization, could use this gun with ease.

By personally handling these items, Bai Cangshu gained a clearer understanding of the Black Ball Team’s combat strength.

The Multi-Faced Star People clearly only intended to give Earthlings weapons capable of killing other aliens, without granting them the corresponding defensive capabilities.

Although these firearms possessed considerable power, their flaws were equally obvious.

The basic X-Gun could ignore a target’s surface defense. If it truly hit Bai Cangshu, it would probably blow open his torso. However, its range was only nine meters.

Even with its locking ability, Bai Cangshu’s current speed was enough to easily escape that attack range the instant his opponent pulled the trigger.

The Gravity Gun was the same. This attack descending from the sky was highly destructive, but it took one or two seconds for the gravity wave to fall. To Bai Cangshu, such an attack posed no threat at all.

"I want something more than this…"

Bai Cangshu’s gaze shifted, and he completely caught sight of the invisible Oka Hachiro.

That Gorilla Suit’s defensive power truly was impressive. Under the attack of his World-Shaking Thunder Roar, it seemed that only the Gorilla Suit had been damaged, while Oka Hachiro had not lost his ability to move.

After taking off the Gorilla Suit, he was still maintaining his invisibility.

Unfortunately, after being locked onto by Bai Cangshu’s Gaze of Arrogance, an ability like invisibility could no longer have any effect.

Oka Hachiro tried moving two steps. When he realized that the monster’s gaze remained fixed on him, he frowned, his heart turning cold.

This 100-point BOSS was unimaginably powerful. More than twenty Black Ball Team members had almost all been killed by a single roar?!

And it possessed exceptional perception, able to ignore invisibility;

It could fly, possessed immense strength and destructive power, and ordinary Reinforcement Suits could not withstand its attacks. One hit meant death…

How could an enemy like this possibly be defeated?

Sweat began forming on Oka Hachiro’s forehead. He kept considering ways to deal with such an enemy, but no matter how hard he thought, he realized that with his current strength, he simply could not contend with it.

Now, even his high-grade Reinforcement Suit had been damaged. Even if Gantz teleported over the giant robot, he would have no chance of operating it.

An enemy like this…

Suddenly, Oka Hachiro realized that in this city already destroyed by yokai, there was still someone who might be able to match the person before him!

It was from their last failed mission. Because the number of yokai had far exceeded expectations, the Osaka Team had nearly lost all its newcomers. Even he had only relied on his invisibility to glimpse those terrifying aliens from afar.

Among them was the Yokai Alien marked by the Black Ball as Nurarihyon, also a 100-point BOSS!

At this moment, there was only one possibility if he wanted to defeat the Reincarnation Star Person before him…

Oka Hachiro was exceptionally skilled at identifying alien mechanics. He was perfectly suited to Gantz’s missions, treating all aliens as monsters and BOSSES in a game.

He would consider the mechanics and solutions for every kind of enemy.

Now that he realized he could not defeat Mercenary Tao, he thought of using the other BOSS currently in this city to redirect disaster!

Bai Cangshu tilted his head, completely reading Oka Hachiro’s thoughts. He was in no hurry to kill the strongest member of the Osaka Team.

He clearly remembered that Gantz had another mechanic: when teleporting Black Ball Team members, it would teleport anyone else in contact with them as well.

Using this mechanic, the vampire leader in the original work had entered the space where Gantz existed.

Bai Cangshu was very curious what rewards he would receive for destroying the Black Ball;

What rewards he would receive if he found the Japanese conglomerates controlling the Black Balls;

What rewards he would receive if he found the wealthy German man who had created the Black Balls, and that wealthy man’s daughter who could receive information from the Multi-Faced Star People…

Bai Cangshu had already exhausted all the resources on him. His greed could not be restrained, and he had no intention of restraining it.

In this world, he would plunder everything he desired to his heart’s content!—

Tokyo. Between the shattered buildings, the Self-Defense Forces that had previously kept attempting bombardments had already been reduced to scraps.

A gigantic robot more than five hundred meters tall stood across central Tokyo, with several surrounding buildings collapsed.

The lights on the enormous robot’s body were also beginning to go dark one after another.

Amid the ruins, Lancer sat atop a dragon corpse, looking somewhat exhausted, while Omega, who had lost a leg, leaned against something not far away.

"It’s all my fault, Lancer. I never should have wanted to seize Gantz’s technology. I should have realized long ago that the Multi-Faced Star People are a high-dimensional race. Any possibility of coming into contact with beings like them is dangerous…"

He regretted it bitterly now.

Lancer did not want to dwell on the matter. He was the captain. Since he had agreed at the time to send people to obtain Gantz technology, he naturally had to bear the consequences.

"Gather the others. Those Black Ball Team members may try to ambush us using invisibility. If the newcomers cannot survive, abandon them."

"Only Bonnie from 74960 should still be alive. We already have enough points from the team battle. As long as we do not encounter those two Scavengers, getting back to the space alive should not be a problem."

Omega also pulled himself together. He now knew that Qingyun was dead. Combined with the telepathic message and mental perception at the final moment, Qingyun had most likely died at Mercenary Tao’s hands.

The fact that Mercenary Tao was one of the Scavengers was terrible news.

"Since Mercenary Tao appeared in Osaka, then theoretically, the other Scavenger should have appeared here with us. Yet they did not show themselves while we fought the Black Ball Team…"

You have triggered a special event: Safety Protocol

Event Details: Scavenger DH88417633 has come into contact with the Special Creation, House of Truth, and has been contaminated by a high-dimensional life-form. All Reincarnation Star People currently alive in this world must kill Scavenger DH88417633 within 14 days.

Event Reward: Cleaner Authority ×1

Penalty for Event Failure: Erasure

The scarlet words interrupted Omega and Lancer’s conversation. At last, the two of them knew where the other Scavenger had gone and what he had done…

The Scavenger had become something that needed to be cleared out. This really was…

—

Bai Cangshu looked at the newly appeared special event and nearly applauded in delight. He loved being a Scavenger. Cleaner Authority sounded like a good thing just from the name alone. Heh…

In his excellent mood, Bai Cangshu looked at the crowd of demons and monsters completely blocking the street, as well as the three Yokai Aliens standing atop a building at the far end of the street.

Even those ingredients looked far more pleasing to the eye now.

Nurarihyon, in his old man form, merely glanced back at Bai Cangshu and the invisible Oka Hachiro before turning away again. He held a jade fragment radiating purple light in both hands, apparently studying it.

Meanwhile, Inugami and Daitengu, like guardians flanking him, raised their hands and pointed at Bai Cangshu, letting out a roar.

Roar!

Countless demons and monsters instantly soared into the air and charged at Bai Cangshu. His entire field of vision was obscured by yokai, while the foul stench of demons and monsters flooded the air…
