After Allen left the school, he went straight to the Shinshinkai Hall, pushed open the door, and the atmosphere inside was somewhat heavy.
Kaiou Retsu, Katsumi Orochi, and Doppo Orochi stood in front of the stage with grim expressions, while hundreds of solemn Shinshinkai disciples stood below, and the air was filled with anger and unwillingness.
"Allen-kun." Katsumi Orochi looked up at Allen, who had rushed to the door, and a glimmer of hope flashed in his eyes.
"That guy Dorian..."
"I know the situation." Allen nodded, his gaze sweeping over everyone.
"Do you have any news of Dorian now?"
Katsumi Orochi shook his head: "Not yet, but we've already made flyers with Dorian's photo and distributed them to various branches, so we should find his whereabouts soon."
Doppo Orochi stepped forward and said in a deep voice: "Dorian's serious injury to Kato this time is a blatant provocation to the Shinshinkai. We must make him pay the price!"
Katsumi Orochi clenched his fist: "The million members of Shinshinkai will definitely find him and avenge Kato!"
...Night fell, and neon lights everywhere formed the nightscape of Tokyo.
Inside a high-end restaurant.
At this moment, Dorian was wearing a brown costume and square-framed sunglasses, dressed as a gentleman.
The delicious steak made him clean his plate.
Just then, a waiter with a smile, hands clasped over his lower abdomen, walked over.
"What do you think."
"It's very delicious." Dorian nodded with satisfaction, not stinting on his praise.
"It's our honor, Mr. Dorian."
"Hmm?" Dorian suddenly looked up, his pupils trembling beneath his lenses, and he slowly put down his knife and fork.
However, after a moment, he relaxed again; no one here made him feel any sense of danger.
"Why do you know my name?" Dorian's voice was calm, a little intrigued.
"Kato Kiyosumi is my junior. I heard you arranged him quite clearly, so thank you for your care."
"Do you understand?"
"You are making an enemy of the million members of Shinshinkai Karate." The waiter's smile remained, and he patiently explained.
"Shinshinkai members are like this restaurant; there are various other organizations nationwide that also belong to Shinshinkai."
"Disguise is probably just a futile effort, isn't it?"
"From now on, as long as you are in this country, all your actions will be under the surveillance of the Shinshinkai."
Dorian did not answer, but silently got up and left the restaurant.
"I hope you can come to your senses soon." The waiter did not stop him, but merely offered a word of advice as he watched Dorian's retreating back.
As soon as he stepped out of the restaurant, he saw a group of burly men in various clothes blocking his way, all with fierce glints in their eyes.
Dorian ignored them and continued to walk out, and the burly men did not stop him, only glaring fiercely.
He walked to the side of the street, raised his hand to hail a taxi, opened the door, and got into the back seat, leaving under the gaze of everyone.
"Shinjuku." After Dorian entered the taxi, he stated his destination.
"Understood, Mr. Dorian." The car then started and headed towards Dorian's destination.
"Driver-kun, are you also a member?" Dorian pulled out the steel wire hidden in his lighter.
"Mr. Dorian, I, everyone around us, are all Shinshinkai disciples."
"Around..." Dorian looked out the car window; the taxi was now surrounded by a convoy of cars.
"Do you understand, Mr. Dorian?"
"Private cars, trucks, large vehicles, small vehicles, even police cars, fire trucks, and even ambulances—every single one is a Shinshinkai disciple."
"Some are on duty, some are using their days off, and every single one has gathered here for the same purpose."
"To take revenge on you." The driver's mouth curved upward, proudly demonstrating the unity of Shinshinkai members to Dorian.
Dorian did not answer, but silently retracted the steel wire back into the lighter.
"A wise judgment. This is not a situation that can be settled with petty tricks."
"All million members of Shinshinkai have come to exact this revenge from you."
"Of course, so have I."
"It seems we won't be reaching Shinjuku." Dorian's voice was calm, still not overly flustered. These people were merely a rabble; no matter how many there were, they were no match for him in a single bout.
"I'm truly sorry, but please follow our instructions now."
"So, where are you taking me?"
"Please bear with it for a moment; we'll reach our destination soon."
...The taxi slowly drove into an open space.
"You've reached your destination. You don't need to pay the fare."
Dorian got out of the taxi, ignoring the fierce glares of the surrounding Shinshinkai members, and observed his surroundings, preparing to formulate a plan.
"This is an amusement park."
At this moment, the driver walked in front of Dorian: "Please enter the park immediately."
"The operators of this amusement park are also people connected with Shinshinkai."
"We welcome your entry."
"What will happen in here?" Dorian's voice was calm; it would be good if he could glean some information.
"I don't know that; our instructions end here." The driver spread his hands, a smile he couldn't suppress on his face.
Seeing this, Dorian understood that it might not be easy for him to leave this amusement park unscathed today.
"Have you misunderstood something?"
"I'm afraid someone is waiting for me in there." Dorian turned and looked at the amusement park gate.
"Perhaps it's the very person I most want to see."
"In other words, this amusement park is where I'm supposed to be."
"You even went to the trouble of bringing me here, even though some of you are on duty and some are on vacation. I must offer my thanks."
Dorian shed his disguise and took a stance.
"Make your move. Don't you want to fight me?"
At these words, everyone present was enraged.
"What are you bastard talking about?"
"You bastard, I'll beat you to a pulp!"
"I'll kill you right now!"
"Haa—!" Dorian let out a loud roar, and the noisy Shinshinkai crowd instantly fell silent, fear appearing on their faces.
"You wouldn't, with such a numerical advantage, still be afraid to come and fight me, would you?"
"This is my respect to you, a gift. Aren't you going to start, using your most proficient Shinshinkai rules?" Dorian wore a scornful smile, mocking the incompetence of the people before him.
