Chapter 161 - Chapter 161: Kawaguchi Tokushi, what exactly are you planning?!

(Spy-This arc with the japanese guy was painful to do tbh, I censored alot of the nationalistic stuff, but it took the "poison testing" to a next level compared to normal) 

(Spy-Back here now from the end of the novel, Yeah lots of stuff I had to "tone" down, honestly, very unnecessary character, but I'll keep doing what I do. I honestly kinda regret putting this one on wn. This novel served as a lesson for me to avoid any fics that are located in China or involve other countries, way less nationalism if the countries don't exist.)

[Hey, hey... why did Master Tokushi suddenly go to China? Shouldn't the next target have been the United States of America?]

[Huh? He chose the China Region? But it's only been open for two days! The competition level seems a bit underwhelming, right?

[Strategic shift? Did something happen?]

[Wow! The women in China are surprisingly beautiful!]

Soon, some Japanese viewers were captivated by the visuals of "Aya" and the others on screen. While some tried to share information about the China Region, the details were clearly not entirely accurate:

[I've been watching the China Region's live stream! That blonde Big Sister is named Aya. She's a supermodel and rumored to have god-tier sewing skills! They call her the once-in-a-millennium perfect goddess!]

[That athletic, tall beauty is Night Shadow, by the way. Can you believe she's said to be transgender?]

[The black-haired beauty is a Criminal Investigator from the local Pursuit Team—strict and serious, but apparently has OCD!]

[And I heard that young girl is a genius hacker addicted to the internet! Chinese viewers call her a prophetic guru who operates in the digital realm!]

[The muscular woman beside the young girl is her battle maid. Rumor has it that when danger strikes, she immediately transforms into "Gundam Form" and goes on the attack!]

[Also, though she's not here, Cifera, a catgirl magician, is a formidable competitor! She just stole priceless jewels worth 60 billion yen!]

The mention of Cifera's theft of the priceless jewels shifted the Bullet Comments' tone again, with extreme comments resurfacing:

[Ha? The China Region really is full of gullible fools with too much money! It's not that Cifera is so strong; it's just that the region's overall strength is too weak!]

[Exactly! The China Pursuit Team is pathetic! If their contestants came to our Japan Region, they wouldn't last a day.]

[That's right! If it were Kawaguchi Tokushi, he wouldn't have stopped at 60 billion—he would have taken 600 billion! 6 trillion!]

[I see! Now I understand why Kawaguchi Tokushi chose the China Region! Watching such weak opponents earn such immense wealth is an insult and an injustice to a true master like him!]

[Chinese people love putting on magnificent but hollow shows! They have no real skill! Master Tokushi is here to teach them what true power means!]

Of course, there were also some rational viewers.

[Well, we still can't let our guard down. I've thoroughly researched China's Contestant Cifera, and she's definitely a formidable opponent for Kawaguchi.]

[I believe in Master Tokushi's strength, but underestimating our opponent might not be wise, right?]

[Anyway, I'm looking forward to Master Tokushi's performance! I can't wait to see him in action!]

[I'm so hyped I can't stop! How am I supposed to sleep tonight? The China Region is about to descend into chaos!]

[Speaking of which, why hasn't the live stream merged with the Chinese side yet? It would be so much more fun if viewers from both sides could cheer on their contestants together!]

In the broadcast studio of the China Region, Nie Junfeng, who had been feeling demoralized by his "Poison Milk" jinx and was preparing to go home for a good night's rest, was stopped by Host Qiu Qiu, who rushed over breathlessly.

"Inspector Nie, please wait!"

"What is it?" Nie Junfeng asked.

It was already past 11 p.m., and normally the contestants wouldn't be taking further action at this hour. As a guest commentator, Nie Junfeng should have been off work as well.

Under Nie Junfeng's slightly dispirited yet puzzled gaze, Host Qiu Qiu stammered, her voice tinged with panic:

"We have news! A major incident has occurred! The contestants from the Japan Region may launch a night raid!"

"...What?!"

Stunned for a moment, Nie Junfeng finally grasped the gravity of the situation. The dejected expression on his face vanished instantly as he charged toward the Production Team's backstage area.

A short time later, Nie Junfeng and Host Qiu Qiu returned to their broadcast positions in the studio.

The director switched the live feed back on, immediately drawing protests from viewers.

[What's going on? I want to see Aya and the others at their group retreat! I don't want to see the Patriarch!]

[Looks like they have an announcement to make.]

[Wait a minute! Don't tell me they're cutting the retreat footage! Little Granddaughter's there! Who knows what he'll do?!]

Amid the audience's confusion, Host Qiu Qiu finally spoke:

"To all viewers still watching the live stream, we must now announce an urgent development—

"The Production Team has confirmed that Kawaguchi Tokushi, the contestant from the Japan Region known as the 'Genius Ninja,' successfully evaded the Japan Pursuit Team's blockade tonight and has entered our country."

"Given the timing of his arrival, we have reason to believe he'll launch a surprise night raid!

"Next, we'll open Contestant Kawaguchi Tokushi's personal live stream, and the official broadcast will closely monitor this 'genius ninja' from Japan's movements.

"Additionally, the live stream will activate a cross-region Bullet Comment communication system. By enabling this feature, viewers will receive real-time Bullet Comments from Japanese audiences, automatically translated into Chinese.

"Similarly, Japanese live streams will activate the same function, providing a unique atmosphere for viewers who want to chat with audiences from other regions while watching the show.

"Inspector Nie and I will remain in the studio tonight, accompanying you as we follow this cross-region defense and attack battle. Let's cheer on the Pursuit Team together!"

Whoosh!

Host Qiu Qiu's announcement instantly flooded the live stream with Bullet Comments. Many viewers who had been hoping for a glimpse of the female contestants' dormitories were stunned.

[Holy crap! A night raid just two days into the China Region?!]

[Damn it! Old Liu and the others have been busting their asses all day trying to catch Cifera! What the hell is this guy up to?!]

[Kawaguchi Tokushi? "Genius Ninja"? What bullshit is that?]

[I looked him up. He's the top-ranked player in the Japan Region, proficient in stealth, disguise, and mechanical traps, mastering various Ninjutsu techniques. Rumor has it the Japan Pursuit Team can't handle him at all. Japanese viewers hail him as the most likely candidate to win the world championship.]

[Keep blowing smoke! Even our Cifera, who's so versatile and powerful, doesn't get this much hype!]

[Time to raid that guy's live stream! Everyone, spam cross-region Bullet Comments at him! All Hail Cat God!]

In an instant, countless Chinese viewers swarmed into Kawaguchi Tokushi's live stream, only to discover something even more shocking:

This guy... was peeping?!

And his target was none other than Aya and the others?!

Kawaguchi Tokushi, what the hell do you think you're doing?!

Those are our viewers' "waifus," damn it! ! !
