A black figure suddenly appeared between Sarutobi Hiruzen and Rimuru.
The scorching fire dragon was gently blown by the black figure and instantly dissipated into the air.
"What!!!"
Seeing his ninjutsu extinguished by a mere breath from the opponent, Sarutobi Hiruzen's eyes flashed with horror.
"Trash like you should be incredibly grateful to even glimpse Lord Rimuru's true form, yet you dare to strike at Lord Rimuru."
"Since you are so unappreciative, then allow me, Diablo, to bestow upon you some necessary punishment."
As Diablo raised his right hand, Sarutobi Hiruzen suddenly realized he could no longer control his body.
"What did you do? Genjutsu?"
Suspecting he was under genjutsu, Sarutobi Hiruzen immediately tried to form hand signs to dispel it, but found he still couldn't control his body.
"Enma!"
"Bang!"
As a cloud of smoke dissipated, Enma's figure suddenly appeared in mid-air, his right hand reaching directly for Sarutobi Hiruzen.
"Oh my, I forgot there was a little monkey. However... I'm not really interested in insignificant beasts."
Diablo merely flicked his right hand, and Enma's entire body was suddenly engulfed in icy, pitch-black flames.
"Ah ah ah ah!"
With a scream from Enma, his entire body was burned to ashes in an instant, dissipating into the air.
"Enma! Damn it!"
Seeing Enma's tragic death, Sarutobi Hiruzen felt a pang of heartache. This was his old comrade who had fought alongside him for decades.
He never expected him to die like this.
"Oh, you still have the leisure to speak? It seems you need some proper training."
"But not here. I can't let a fellow like you offend Lord Rimuru's eyes."
After saying that, Diablo and Sarutobi Hiruzen's figures instantly vanished from Zhong Chen and the others' sight.
"Uh... Is Diablo perhaps an S? But I remember he was an M?"
Zhong Chen and the others witnessed Diablo's actions throughout, and Zhong Chen even asked Rimuru with a look of disbelief.
"I don't know either. Did Diablo have contact with Esdeath?"
After speaking, Rimuru turned to look at Esdeath, his eyes full of inquiry.
"Diablo did discuss with me how to treat enemies. We had a very pleasant exchange. He is a man of profound knowledge."
As Esdeath spoke, a hint of recollection appeared on her face, as if she greatly admired Diablo's knowledge.
"Alright, no need to ask. Diablo was definitely influenced by Esdeath."
Upon hearing Esdeath's words, Zhong Chen spread his hands and shrugged helplessly.
Below them, Konoha had already descended into massive chaos.
Many spectators in the arena frantically ran outwards, and the crowded scene caused many to be trampled to death.
Inside Konoha Village, numerous rebellious ninjas were being slaughtered by Angels and Fallen Angels. Yes, it was a slaughter.
The gap between ordinary ninjas of flesh and blood and the Angels was simply too great, let alone the Angels and Fallen Angels who had been greatly strengthened after joining the Monster Country Federation.
"Bang! I say, Sirzechs, you still have the leisure to process documents here, while Lord Rimuru has taken Angels and Fallen Angels to the Shinobi World."
"We Devils have been munching on melon seeds and watching the show the whole time! Lord Rimuru must be displeased with us Devils!"
Ajuka, one of the former Four Great Demon Lords, anxiously slapped Sirzechs's desk.
Sirzechs could only respond with a helpless, gentle smile.
"Uh... I think Lord Rimuru probably just didn't notice that."
"Besides, aren't all those Angels and Fallen Angels from the Imperial Guard Legion? Aren't there also Devils in the Imperial Guard Legion?"
Hearing Sirzechs's words, Ajuka slapped the table again and loudly declared:
"But there aren't many Imperial Guard Devils, so..."
Before Ajuka could finish, Sirzechs, who vaguely understood something, suddenly showed a knowing smile.
"Ajuka, did Serafall send you to tell me this?"
"I think she probably wants to go and play."
Hearing Sirzechs's words, the anxiety on Ajuka's face immediately vanished, replaced by an awkward smile.
"Uh... ahem... well... you guessed it."
"Sigh, if she wants to go, she should just go. Why does she need you to tell me?"
Sirzechs was a bit confused as to why Serafall needed to find him.
Serafall is currently the Headmaster of Kuoh Academy in Academy City. Logically, if she had any ideas, she should tell Chairwoman Shizu.
What did it have to do with him, a deputy chief political officer?
"Recently, a new disruptive force suddenly emerged in Academy City. Chairwoman Shizu issued an order for the Headmasters of each academy to organize personnel to investigate the secret hideout of this disruptive force."
When mentioning the disruptive force, Ajuka couldn't help but twitch his mouth. Look at the name, 'disruptive force,' it sounds like a game.
"Passing through the Dimensional Gate under personal name would require identity verification by the gatekeeping unit. Serafall is sneaking out to play and fears being discovered by Chairwoman Shizu."
"So, she wants you to use this opportunity to mobilize political personnel to the Shinobi World, allowing her to blend into the team and pass through the Dimensional Gate."
Upon hearing Ajuka's explanation, a black line appeared on Sirzechs's forehead. That fellow actually bothered him with such a trivial matter through Ajuka.
Didn't she know he still had a lot of work to finish!!!
However, in the end, Sirzechs still nodded helplessly.
"I understand. Tell her to wait for my notification."
"Hahaha, then I'll be off! Serafall promised to give me a limited edition figure handmade by Miss Tamayo!"
After Ajuka finished speaking, he happily walked out of the room, leaving Sirzechs staring blankly at the back of his old friend.
Why were all these guys so idle? Was he the only one here working tirelessly on a mountain of tasks every day?
No, I can't be the only one this unlucky. He then picked up the phone and dialed.
"Moshi moshi, this is Shizu. Is there something you need, Political Officer Sirzechs?"
Listening to the gentle voice from the other end, a mischievous smile appeared on Sirzechs's lips.
"Chairwoman Shizu, it's actually like this, that Serafall..."
At this moment, Serafall, who had just received Ajuka's reply, was excitedly waving her magic wand, completely unaware that she had already been sold out by someone.
"Sister, why don't you just tell Teacher Shizu directly? I think Teacher Shizu would probably let you go directly to the Shinobi World."
Sona Sitri sat on the sofa, taking a sip of black tea, looking at her sister with a helpless expression.
"Hehe, little Sona, the joy of sneaking out to play will be doubled, you know!"
Serafall pointed her magic wand at Sona Sitri, a very childish smile on her face.
Sona Sitri could only shake her head helplessly, looking at her sister. Her sister still had the same personality after all these years.
"Sona, don't worry. Even if she's discovered, I don't think Teacher Shizu's personality would allow her to punish Lady Serafall."
"Indeed, Teacher Shizu is so gentle after all."
Rias and Himejima Akeno, sitting opposite Sona Sitri, said with a smile.
"By the way, regarding that new disruptive force that recently appeared, Sona, do you have any clues?"
"Not yet. The other party is well hidden, and the Security Force is currently doing its best to investigate..."
