Chapter 548: Sorry, I'm Late!
In the Titan World, Door-Door Space, within the Empty Hall on the fifth floor of Noah's Ark.
Im watched the various Intelligence and Footage continuously sent back by the Ninjas, a string of Black Lines representing speechlessness appearing above his head.
"It's not the Ninja World after all, but what the heck are those guys wearing 'Ninja Headbands'?"
He knew he had misjudged this time, but fortunately, the only consequence was that the Sea Ninjas replaced Cipher Pol as the first batch of Investigators to enter the Star Gate.
The Intelligence he had previously written about the Ninja World could just be considered preparation for the future. As for whether this misjudgment would affect his prestige in the eyes of the Five Elders...
He could only say that the source of his prestige didn't lie in the Intelligence he provided, but in his Identity, Strength, the 'National Treasure' in his hands, and his Control over the Star Gate.
Im felt that the top priority now was to quickly determine the 'correct identity' of this new World.
"Main Language is English Language, Northern Ethnic Autonomous Region, The Empire, Baldass Town, Prince Numa Seka, Level 1 Danger Beast... Hmm? Danger Beast!"
Im picked out a few keywords. When he saw the words 'Danger Beast', information related to it gushed forth in his mind like a spring. It didn't take long for him to confirm it.
"So that's it, it's the World of Akame ga Kill!"
"But in the Canon, weren't the Northern Ethnic Minorities at War with The Empire? Could this be a point in time after they've already been conquered? But why is this Prince Seka still alive and well?"
"And this Baldass, it seems to be Esdeath's ethnic group. Weren't they already massacred by the Northern Ethnic Minorities in the Canon? None of this matches up!"
Although Im knew that Manga and reality would definitely have differences.
Based on his experiences in the previous three Worlds, except for the Titan World which saw huge changes due to Ymir's Simulator-level Future Sight Ability, the other two Worlds were actually quite normal at first.
He thought for a moment, summoned a sheet of paper, and began writing down Intelligence Information about the Akame ga Kill World.
However, this time he didn't write down every single detail. He only drew a simplified Map of The Empire and marked the location of the Imperial Capital on it.
He then wrote down what Imperial Arms and Ministerial Arms were, which Imperial Arms were worth noting, what Danger Beasts were, the Rank classification of Danger Beasts, and information about the Imperial Fist Temple.
Thirty minutes later, via the Fax Device used for Transponder Snails, this new Intelligence File appeared before the Five Elders in Holy Land Marie Geoise.
"'Imperial Arms World'?"
Saint Topman Warcury looked at the code name Lord Imu had given the fourth Otherworld in surprise, thinking to himself, "Didn't he say it was called the Ninja World before?"
However, they had also recently discovered that many parts of the fourth Otherworld differed from Lord Imu's previous Prophecy Content. They just didn't dare to ask or say anything.
"So that's it, Lord Imu's previous Prophecy was even more advanced Future Information!"
After carefully reading the Content, the Five Elders all suddenly understood. Among them, Saint Shepherd Ju Peter laughed and said, "That means that 'Ninja World' is an Otherworld we will encounter in the future."
Saint Jaygarcia Saturn, holding the Shodai Kitetsu in his arms, shook his head and sighed with emotion, "As expected of Lord Imu, the remoteness of the Future he foresees is truly awe-inspiring!"
They didn't doubt this statement.
Firstly, they didn't dare to doubt. Secondly, the previous 'Ninja World' Intelligence was simply too detailed and complete, even writing out a History spanning over a thousand years.
Following this, the Five Elders shifted the topic to 'Imperial Arms' and 'Danger Beasts'.
"According to Lord Imu, the five Imperial Arms most worth noting are the Supreme Imperial Arm, Demon God Manifestation, Dimensional Array, World Encyclopedia, and Murasame."
"At the same time, this Otherworld also has two People and Things that can foresee the Future. One is a Divination-type Imperial Arm, and the other is the Pontiff of a Religion called the Path of Peace, who naturally possesses the special Ability to see Future Visions through Dreams."
After listening to Saint Topman Warcury, Saint Shepherd Ju Peter said thoughtfully, "That means our existence is very likely already known to that Empire."
"Yes, we just don't know how much Information they know."
Saint Jaygarcia Saturn nodded, looking solemnly at the various Intelligence Files piled on the Coffee Table, as if 'gazing' at the Country called 'The Empire' through them.
"However, according to the Intelligence gathered by the first batch of Ninjas, this Empire is currently engaged in War on both the east and west sides. So, even if they know something, they won't be able to spare much Strength to deal with us for a while."
Saint Marcus Mars was still standing beside the Sofa, stretching his long, straight legs, and spoke expressionlessly.
"Since that's the case, let's first turn the North into our territory, and then exchange blows with the other side to see how much Ability those so-called Imperial Arms truly possess."
Then, Saint Jaygarcia Saturn chuckled happily, "No wonder Ymir told us to prepare more Winter Clothes. So that's what he meant. Fortunately, we didn't take it lightly. Cold-resistant Clothing and Heating Equipment have already been prepared."
Just at this moment, the small Transponder Snail in Saint Shepherd Ju Peter's arms rang. This was the dedicated Transponder Snail for the Dean of CIPHER POL Headquarters to contact him.
"Lord Five Elders, the Ninjas we sent to the fourth Otherworld and those few former Demon Slayer Corps 'Hashira' have suddenly been targeted for tracking, and even Attacks, in Various Places!"
"Immediately transmit the Footage!"
Saint Shepherd Ju Peter immediately issued the Order. Seeing such things firsthand was more intuitive.
"Yes!"
Within the Room of Authority, the Five Elders looked at each other. Saint Jaygarcia Saturn said coldly, "It seems the other side was indeed prepared early. This Old Man is truly curious, do they really have the Ability to contend with our World Government!"
Meanwhile, in the Akame ga Kill World, oh no, it should be called the Imperial Arms World from now on...
Within a small town located west of the Northern Ethnic Autonomous Region, about twenty kilometers from the Capital Fortress.
Four rapidly moving Afterimages continuously collided, separated, and splashed out bright sparks on the rooftops, accompanied by the howling wind and snow. Occasionally, a few crisp Gunshots rang out.
This scared the surrounding Citizens, who fled into Buildings, causing the originally somewhat lively streets and alleys to become empty in a short time.
Two of them were both about 1.8 meters tall, with slender builds, wearing thick grey and white Winter Clothes, each holding a pitch-black Kunai.
The two on the opposite side were also dressed in Winter Clothes, a Man and a Woman. The former held a freely retractable Long-Handled Greatsword, while the latter held a Pistol and a peculiar Whip.
They were members of the Imperial Intelligence Division, Litney and Pais.
Originally, the two were just tracking and didn't intend to engage in combat, but who knew that the opponents had discovered them at some point and launched the Attack first without hesitation, throwing many strange Shuriken right at their faces.
[Clang!]
Another collision between a Kunai and a Blade edge.
The next second.
With a dull thud, Litney, who was holding the Long Saber, was struck by a lightning-fast heavy kick to the abdomen. He spat out a Blood Mist and fell from the rooftop, his life or death unknown.
"Litney!"
Pais exclaimed in shock at this scene, but her opponent didn't give up the opportunity just because she was a beautiful Woman. They instantly turned into a black Afterimage and rushed forward, the sharp Blade edge of the Kunai mercilessly slashing towards her fair neck.
Pais was scared stiff, subconsciously closing her eyes and waiting for death to arrive.
[Swish!]
[Puchi----]
The next second, her Throat was cut open by a flash of Blade Light, and scarlet Hot Blood splattered in the cold wind.
However, the person who fell was not Pais. A petite and charming Beauty with flowing black hair and crimson eyes suddenly appeared in front of her, holding a gleaming Long Saber.
"Sorry, I'm late..."
