Kurogane Ouma didn't seem to be hiding anything and answered directly.

"The clothes we are all wearing are the uniforms of the newly formed 'Akatsuki Academy'. It is a Blade User training school built by the Japanese government independently of the 'Alliance'."

"Opposing you who symbolize the Big Dipper, it takes the meaning of a new dawn."

So that's how it is.

Harumura Makoto understood.

But he understood, and precisely because he understood, he couldn't help but have a mocking smile on his lips.

"I was wondering why I couldn't find out who was behind you. So it's the high-ranking officials of the government."

"It seems that the person who is funding you is very confident in your strength."

Now, Harumura Makoto already understands why Kurogane Ouma and the others are doing all this.

Probably a high-ranking official in the Japanese government wants to break away from the Alliance, separate from the control of the Alliance, and return to being an independent country.

But in today's world, the importance of Blade Users is already very obvious.

Compared to those useless cannons, airplanes, and other things, the role that Blade Users can play in war is immeasurable.

Therefore, if Japan wants to become independent, the top priority is to have the training institution for nurturing its own Blade Users in its own hands.

Only in this way can the impression of the Alliance on the country's Blade Users be gradually eroded.

Otherwise, when that mastermind wants to introduce some policies, they will only be resisted by the country's Blade Users.

Education is always the most important thing.

However, no matter what, what is the premise that must be understood?

The Japanese government has absolutely no ability to confront the 'Alliance'.

Aside from the fact that the country's Blade Users are not trained by themselves, they are far from enough in terms of other strengths.

What kind of organization is the so-called 'Alliance'?

It is an organization established by many small countries united together to resist large countries, and Japan is just one of the many small countries.

What does Japan rely on, how can it have the ability to clamor in front of the Alliance?

It simply doesn't have it.

So they can only seize one point.

That is the public opinion of the Japanese people.

As long as the vast majority of Japanese people support Japan's independence, then even if the Alliance is strong, it will not dare to continue to force Japan to stay in the alliance.

After all, doing so would cause problems with the original intention of the Alliance's establishment, and the Alliance would be at risk of disintegration.

At that time, even if the Alliance is unwilling, it can only let Japan leave.

That's it!

The first thing they have to do is to let their own people see that even if Japan leaves the Alliance, their Japanese government can allow their own people to live in peace and tranquility in this war-torn era.

The Blade Users they train are no less than the Blade Users trained by the Alliance.

And right now, there is an excellent opportunity to let the Japanese people see the ability of the Japanese government.

--Seven Star Sword Art Festival!

As long as the students of Akatsuki Academy can win the Seven Star Sword Art Festival, they will be able to prove themselves and can conduct further negotiations with the Alliance and bewitch the people.

"You want to prove by attacking Hagun Academy to get the tournament committee to recognize Akatsuki Academy's eligibility to participate?"

That's right, there is nothing wrong with this entire plan.

But the biggest problem is that the Seven Star Academy is an academy of the Alliance, and the Seven Star Sword Art Festival is a sword art festival of the Alliance.

You are a privately established, unrecognized academy, why are you qualified to enter the Seven Star Sword Art Festival and compete with our Alliance students?

Sorry, you are not qualified.

So they need to attack one of the academies.

A group of students directly subverting an academy is enough to prove the strength of Akatsuki Academy. This is the beginning of everything for them, the first step.

"You guessed everything right."

"Your mind is indeed good."

"You can think of so much in an instant just by relying on clues."

Kurogane Ouma clapped his hands lightly.

"We need to prove through this attack that if the Seven Star Sword Art Festival does not have us, without the participation of Akatsuki Academy, the competition for the title of the strongest student is meaningless."

"So, have you finished asking?"

Kurogane Ouma's eyes instantly became sharp, and a violent wind pressure condensed around him, as if he was ready to strike at any time.

"So impatient?"

Harumura Makoto directly sneered, tightened the long sword in his hand, and aimed it at Kurogane Ouma.

"Then, the last question."

"Others may be for money, or for status, or for other things, or even may have some lofty ideals."

"But you."

"You, Kurogane Ouma, shouldn't be like this."

"Just take it as my curiosity, the last question, you who could even abandon family affection in your youth in order to train yourself, why would you participate in something that obviously has no meaning for you to improve your strength."

The gale grew from the blade, swirling around it, eventually forming a wind blade with a diameter of more than fifty meters.

The sharp wind blade tore everything around it.

The atmosphere seemed to be mourning for the tragic scene in front of it.

"That's right, I'm not interested in everything they promised."

"It doesn't matter to me what happens to Japan as a country."

"I have been pursuing becoming stronger since before, and I am still pursuing the strongest now."

"I can give anything as long as it is to become stronger."

"The reason I agreed is just because I can constantly fight in this process."

The storm sword that seemed to be able to sweep everything away finally took shape completely in Kurogane Ouma's hands.

"So, let's begin--"

"The battle I've been looking forward to."

"--'Moon Severing Heavenly Dragon Claw'."

Chapter 104: Each Person's Battle

"--Shadow Stitch!"

Arisouin Nagi abruptly opened his hands, with a purple dagger clipped between each finger of his ten fingers.

Then, Arisouin Nagi threw out his daggers without mercy. The daggers instantly crossed tens of meters and mercilessly pinned the shadow of the target to the ground.

--'Shadow Stitch'!

This is Arisouin Nagi's Noble Art.

His ability is a concept interference type that manipulates shadows. This Noble Art uses this power to allow his Device to penetrate the opponent's shadow, a move that can completely block the opponent's actions.

That's right, it's a bit like the Shadow Imitation Technique used by Nara Shikamaru in Naruto.

As long as the shadow is controlled, no matter how strong you are, you cannot resist it.

It is definitely a powerful weapon to use in a surprise attack.

"--Heaven Burning Ground Scorching Dragon King Flame!"

At this moment, Stella raised her Device, 'Laevateinn', and the crimson flames continued to rise on her body, eventually turning into a sword of flames.

"--Boom!"

As the deafening roar suddenly appeared, the scarlet flames rose directly at the location of Akatsuki Academy, sweeping to death, as if a volcano erupted and completely devoured all the people of Akatsuki Academy.

"Boom--"

The explosion resounded like thunder, and the flames directly devoured everything in front of it.

This is a fatal blow, this is a perfect surprise attack.

At the same time, this is also Arisouin Nagi's redemption and atonement.

When attacking Hagun Academy, his original task was to use the Shadow Stitch Noble Art to hold the people of Hagun Academy in place.

So he needed to infiltrate Hagun Academy, needed to become a member of the delegation, needed to build a good relationship with the members of the delegation and gain their trust.

This is also why they knew that Hagun Academy is very strong now, and that attacking it might be more difficult than other academies, but they still attacked Hagun Academy as their breakthrough.

Because they have the ultimate insurance against Hagun Academy.

"What an idiot, you have already leaked so much, do you think we will still believe you?"

The voice came from the flames, full of vigor.

The next second!

A sharp sound of breaking through the air directly attacked, pierced through the space, and directly pierced Arisouin Nagi's body from behind.

Fresh blood dripped little by little from the piercing point of the dagger.

The dagger named Night Stalker stayed at the back of its owner's heart.

This is not an Illusion Device, but a genuine Device manifested in physical form, a Device that can cause fatal injuries.

What can be seen is the dagger, and the faint, looming thing that is connected to the end of the dagger, like a thin thread.

"I see."

Another mouthful of blood spurted out of Arisouin Nagi's mouth.

"You actually used the thread to control the direction of one of my daggers?"

"Alice!"

Kurogane Shizuku screamed in panic.

Among them, she is Arisouin Nagi's only friend.

After all, Arisouin Nagi was the first to recognize her distorted view of love and was willing to stand by her side to support her.

This allowed Kurogane Shizuku, who had been lonely in her heart since she was a child and rejected everything around her, to have someone she recognized for the first time besides her brother.

Similarly, the reason why Arisouin Nagi surrendered and rebelled so simply was also because of Kurogane Shizuku.

He became the second person Kurogane Shizuku recognized.

How could Arisouin Nagi not have become the light in her heart for the first time since she was six years old?

"I'm fine, Shizuku."

Kurogane Shizuku supported Arisouin Nagi's body.

Releasing the maintenance of the Device, Arisouin Nagi also used his muscles to control his wound and prevent the blood from continuing to seep out.

"Of course you'll be fine, I deliberately left you a life."

"After all, if people die, our mission will fail."

Still that absent-minded, grinning voice, from the rising flames, like ripples on the surface of the water, six figures emerged from the flames one after another.

"However, giving a small punishment is not too much."

Hiraga Reisen looked at Arisouin Nagi, who was bowing his body, and let out a pitying laugh.

Shinonomiya Amane, Sara, Kazamatsuri Rinna and others, none of them fell to the ground because of Stella's power, they all stood there coldly, as if looking at a group of lambs to be slaughtered.

"How is that possible."

Stella widened her eyes in surprise.
