Superpowers of Sky City

Chapter 607 Extra 1 The Changing World (Part )

"Controller=san, here is the investigation report on the collective malignancy incident in Kaitong City." "Thank you for your hard work, General Shocked=san, please take care of yourself." "Controller=san, the Chikushijima Branch Chief reported that there have been many outsiders recently The Impermanent Envoy proposed exchanges..." "The attitude is friendly and focused. Tell them that if they want technical exchanges, please follow the official documents and follow the procedures." "But we don't have official documents."

The controller, who was buried deep in the pile of documents, held up the tea cup with the calmness unique to a senior person: "So I'll let you, Shinblade=san, draft one and finish it before 5 o'clock today."

Aieeeee? ! The magenta-clad ninja who reported the situation almost screamed out of control. He saluted with a conditioned reflex: "Understood! Finish it as quickly as possible!"

The ninja in magenta attire endured the ninja stomach pain and walked away. The controller took a sip of tea and said in a long voice: "I have been in the industry for three months, and this guy is still a newbie..."

"I mean, Yamada, just being transferred here for a year doesn't count as seniority." Suicide on the side took the time to joke.

"Experience is more important than length of service. I have gradually stopped feeling stomach pain recently."

"Are you sure it's not the part of you that's an ordinary person that's going numb and dead?"

"A joke that isn't actually funny. It's so scary." The controller raised his hand to catch a paper shuriken and smiled dumbly after taking it apart. "It's another recruitment task. I'm so motivated..."

The pen tips of the ninjas jumped on the paper, and the rustling of signatures and comments continued for a moment. The experienced veterans folded the documents into paper shurikens at three times the hand speed of ordinary people. With a twist of their fingers, they threw them to the communication ninja who was waiting outside the window and caught the new official documents at the same time. Shurikens shuttle through the air like paper cranes, adding a mysterious atmosphere unique to Zero Island to the Japanese room.

In fact, this is a greatly simplified workflow. Before the Weihara Rebellion, important official documents from the upper echelons required ninjas to sit in the tearoom in person, annotate them with a brush in an aristocratic and elegant manner, and make them into scrolls to show to the leader before they could be issued. After Zuiyan took charge of the Ninja Army, most of the complicated and useless processes were abolished and replaced by new methods of honing skills at work.

A ninja who makes a mistake in throwing a paper shuriken will receive three hits with weak basic skills, while a ninja who is injured by a paper shuriken will receive three hits that cannot even be resisted by the paper. Daily sitting and lying down are all practices, and the actual workplace is like a battlefield!

"What will the newbies who enthusiastically signed up to join the Ninja Army think when they see this scene..." the controller said sarcastically.

"I will become incontinent quietly, angry hahaha!"

The giant ninja's laughter caused the table to shake slightly. Smash, who was sitting at the top of the office, raised his fist and smashed the extra large red button in the upper right corner of the desk. The office door opened automatically, and, lo and behold. The piles of documents on everyone's desks flew up and folded into white missiles automatically! The communication ninja flew towards the door like a shower!

Those of you who have ninja dynamic vision must have seen the truth. This is an efficient file sending method that is unique to the leader of the ninja army and is accomplished with the practice of karate. Namu San, what a karate! The communication ninjas quickly gathered outside the door and intercepted the documents in a human wall formation!

"Guwa-!" "Aba-!" The ninjas who caught the paper missiles screamed. "Caught it-!" The magenta-clad ninja Shinzai caught the paper missile with a knife.

"Xinbian=san, it's not good to be lazy with the impermanence method." The controller glanced at him sideways, "Add an hour of anti-hit practice after get off work, and I'll do it with you."

"aieeee?! Got it, actually sorry!"

The new blade couldn't hold back the exclamation this time. After the office door was closed, the senior ninjas burst into laughter. Shatter took out a large bottle of energy drink from the refrigerator and gave one to each of his subordinates: "Take a ten-minute break."

"Okay." "Thanks~"

The Controller takes off his mask and reverts to Yamada, a young office worker. He took a sip of iced drink and shook the document in his hand: "Seriously, do we need so many newcomers? It is a good thing to have fresh blood, but the unevenness of the members will also be a problem. And..."

Yamada hesitated to speak and put down the document. The recruitment plan of Weihara Castle for this year was recorded on paper. The number of applicants far exceeded the maximum estimated number of places, which caused a deep headache for the old ninjas. However, this is also an inevitable development under the changing general situation.

Three months have passed since the war between the Jihui Division and the Ping Ping King ended. That unprecedented battle had a huge impact on the world, the first of which was the complete exposure of the society inside. Now everyone knows that there are impermanent laws and permanent laws in the world. The source of the dragon phenomenon is the eternal king, and the impermanent laws have always been active in the world to protect peace. Associations such as the Ritual Ceremony Hall, Mithril Pillars, and Martial Arts Junfeng had to move from the backstage to the front, guiding public opinion and responding as official experts.

The general direction of the entire society is probably a question that only emperors, presidents and others are qualified to discuss. For middle- and lower-class ninjas like Yamada, the addition of new members is an immediate problem. After learning that there are supernatural powers that can be cultivated in the world, how many people dare to say that they have no interest in it? This longing for "specialness" alone is enough for people to work hard in the direction of learning the law of impermanence.

"I remember that there was a time when juvenile crime was high," he said wistfully. "About three to five years ago, the idea that 'only special people can become superpowers' was popular in society. So there were many guys who were under great pressure to study. Make trouble, rob, run naked, or make ridiculous remarks on the street, hoping that someone will notice you and awaken your superpowers and reach the sky."

Yamada was surprised: "Are you kidding me? You are not afraid of being sent to the Sky Capital, are you?"

"How can a child think so much? If he wants super powers, will he still care about these things?" He laughed to himself.

"What's the final solution?"

"People in other jurisdictions don't know, but the guys in Weiyuan City asked the boss to give a unified lecture and solve it completely."

Yamada turned to look at the four-meter-tall giant ninja, who was crushing the flattened plastic bottles into paper-thin squares.

"The effect must be very significant..."

"The self-righteous child needs to suffer some hardships!" The crushing voice rumbled, "Yamada, continue. What did you want to say just now?"

Yamada straightened his back reflexively: "Yes! I am actually worried about the quality of the members. After the impermanence method is popularized, the gap between talents will increase the gap in strength between people. Newbies who gain strength too quickly will easily See yourself as a different existence from others..."

"That is, purity." Shatter said.

"……Yes?"

Smashing the plastic pieces on fire: "What you're worried about is that garbage like the Pure Faction will show up again."

Yamada nodded vigorously. Shatter picked up the plastic piece and squeezed it tightly in front of the two of them, until it became thinner than paper.

"Garbage will never disappear!" Smash said gruffly, "Look, no matter how vigilant you are, no matter how hard you try, the self-righteous garbage will still exist. Even if you drive them all away..."

He rubbed it gently, letting the plastic piece burn away in the tribulation flames. Then he picked up a new plastic bottle, placed it on the table, and smashed it with a punch.

"New garbage will still come out." Smash concluded, "There is no permanent solution, the only way is to keep smashing it."

"Actually, thank you. I fully understand it." Yamada nodded desperately, "It's just that I'm a little worried about the problem of preventing the slightest change..."

"After several wars and many casualties, there must be new people." Smash raised his finger, "More moves! Then for the first five years, I will only learn karate!" Yamada Kazuzu was stunned when he heard this, and then fell into deep thought.

"Ah...is that so!" Yamada reacted first, "Use karate as a mechanism to identify talented people!"

"Use the practice of karate to temper your mind, and after getting the approval of the teacher, then come into contact with the impermanence method with a mature attitude?" Zizi clapped his hands, "That's a good idea, boss! A newbie who can calm down to practice karate and perform tasks has a good character." There are always basic safeguards. And the guys who don't perform well in the process..."

"Just drive them all out." Smash said, "We will subdivide it later, and there must be ninjas who only practice karate. Truthfully announce the severity of the training, and make the training process open and transparent, so that those who dare to come can be recruited. !”

Yamada and Zizi applauded at the same time, stood up and presented a blessing representing admiration to the boss. Shatter accepted it peacefully and ate two in one bite. The two ninjas secretly made eye contact as they returned to their seats.

(Smash=san’s efficiency is actually very high... No wonder Lord Zuiyan is relieved to let him act as his sole agent.)

(The boss always gets straight to the point when looking at problems. He is not good at minutiae but he sees the big picture very clearly.)

(I wanted to say it a long time ago, he is actually a genius, right?)

(The most indispensable thing in the industry is genius. This sentence is also written in the newcomer's handbook.)

The old ninja Zuiyan recently took his confidants to the kingdom to carry out friendly exchange operations. As a senior ninja, he guided them to rebuild a loyal and reliable spy force. Therefore, the work on Zero Island was temporarily handed over to Smash. Accordingly, the kingdom also sent commissioners to guide the exchanges, mainly responsible for assisting the behind-the-scenes organizations to move to the stage. They have rich experience in this area. After all, only the Knights of the Kingdom in the world are active in the public eye from beginning to end.

Thinking of this, Yamada thought: "Can we ask the knights to provide professional advice? In terms of public opinion, they should be more experienced than us."

"Nu... a good idea." Shatter nodded, "Go find Rakel and ask him to come to the tea room for tea in the afternoon."

"learn."

Yamada stood up and resigned, jumped out of the window, and fell smoothly using gravity control. Scenes on each floor passed before his eyes. Among them were Newbie ninjas training hard under the supervision of their seniors, Shinto shrine maidens and Shenzhu Heju jointly discussing cooperation matters. He also saw several professionals in the animation industry. People, they should be here to collect information for the "multimedia publicity" plan that was discussed before...

Yamada quietly took out his cell phone to take a photo and sent it to a gray-haired friend. In less than ten seconds, the reply came as he reached the target floor.

To: Yamada-kun

【So strong! What kind of national team production is this? ! 】

To: Mr. Gongsun

[It is actually the promotional film "New Ninja Dragon Fighter" that the Ninja Army is preparing to shoot recently. But I'm a bit worried that the need for publicity will outweigh the story and it will turn out to be a bad film. Are you interested in reading the script? 】

To: Yamada-kun

【give it to me. 】

This way the animation work will be done! I will review it once, then Mr. Raquel will review it, and finally there will be a senior otaku like Mr. Gongsun to check it. This film will not be bad!

Yamada relaxed slightly and walked silently into the special elevator on the 15th floor, which went all the way underground to the core of the divination electronic array.

The former steel forest has now changed a lot. The complicated and twisting steel cables have been re-arranged in an orderly manner with the cooperation of the witches. The core of the formation is no longer a tightly sealed steel chamber, but has been replaced by a girl-like work. room. There are plush toys of all sizes on the pink bed. Next to the desk is a smart lunch table with snacks, drinks and meals ready to go. Shiyu Lingji is sitting on a sofa-style office chair that looks extremely comfortable. The scanner on his head is now replaced by electronic sunglasses.

"Mr. Yamada, I'm a little troubled." The little girl waved to him, "The office environment is actually too mild, and I'm worried about the decrease in efficiency."

"Miss Lingsi, ladies should enjoy a comfortable and warm life." An energetic voice answered, "Every knight will tell you the necessity of coordinating work and life, and I want to emphasize that this is what you should do. The basic treatment you get.”

Knight Raquel walked into the room after knocking on the door, holding a light and airy kingdom-style girl's dress in her hand. He said energetically: "I am helping to design work clothes for female ninja soldiers. What do you think of this direction?"

Lingsi blinked: "Sister Ling will like it very much."

"Oh, then it seems I need to change my thinking." Raquel felt a little frustrated, "What is Mr. Yamada doing?"

"Crush=san invites you to have tea together in the afternoon..."

After Yamada said his intention in a few words, Knight Rakel responded with a shining smile: "Of course, I'm happy to!"

Yamada was a little overwhelmed: "Mr. Raquel...Excuse me, are all the knights of your kingdom so...good at socializing?"

Raquel patted him on the shoulder, with deep sympathy in her eyes: "When you have to go to the stage to meet the public's gaze, this becomes a necessary work quality. We have a training called 'Knightly Smile', Specialize in learning a friendly and cheerful smile.”

"O God of Misfortune..." Yamada groaned.

"In addition, there are regularly scheduled press conferences, image ambassadors specially selected for publicity, and so on." Raquel said, "Be prepared, Mr. Yamada, walking into the sun means double Work!”

"I'm starting to miss the Ninja Army back then." Yamada's eyes were blank.

"And I think it's better now than then." Raquel said encouragingly, "There should be some changes, right? In my opinion, your behavior before was more like a killer organization, but now you are a veritable warrior protecting the country. ”

Yamada was stunned when he heard this, and nodded after a long time.

He thanked him and walked out of the office. Before leaving, he saw Shiyu Lingsi chatting on his mobile phone. The kid is finally not so rigid, which makes Yamada happy. When he returned to the ground, he got out of the window and squinted his eyes under the sunlight.

Today is a beautiful day. The March breeze is blowing the ninja's turbans. Under the sun, Weibara City is thriving. Among the crowded and quiet crowds, the figures of the ninjas can be vaguely seen. They endured the curious looks of others and were surrounded by bold children asking all kinds of questions. Some young ninjas would bite the bullet and answer. Some senior middle-aged people couldn't stand the atmosphere, so they jumped to the top of the building and jumped away amidst everyone's exclamations.

"It's a challenge for everyone." Yamada said to himself, "Let's start by setting up a ninja patrol."

He flew along the surface of the building and returned to his duties with a slightly lighter mood.
