80: In progress
After becoming the richest person, Sato Shinsui's cheat-mode life continued.
First, regarding dealing with Monsters, at the beginning, the strength of the Monsters grew day by day, and Sato Shinsui suffered quite a bit.
However, fate seemed to always give him surprises at critical moments. Just when he was in a predicament, a group of like-minded companions appeared.
These companions were not only powerful but also had distinct personalities; some were calm and decisive, some were witty and flexible, and others were empathetic.
They each possessed unique skills, cooperated tacitly, and fought together against the threat of the Monsters.
They had a common goal: to protect the safety of humanity and engage in life-and-death battles with the Monsters.
In this process, deep friendships developed between Sato Shinsui and his various female companions.
Through battle after battle, they gradually came to understand each other, eventually developing bonds that went beyond mere friendship.
This made the single guys among the companions who also had feelings for these women incredibly envious, though they could only lament the immense charisma of Sato Shinsui; there was absolutely no drama like brothers turning against each other.
With the assistance of his teammates, Sato Shinsui's battles became much smoother.
Whenever he encountered powerful Monsters, he was able to easily turn the tables with the help of his companions.
The leveling-up process also became incredibly smooth, as if every battle could make him even stronger.
Through his efforts, more and more cities regained peace, and the fame of Hundred Skeletons grew accordingly.
However, just when everything seemed to be going smoothly, an accident broke the calm.
During a certain counterattack by the Monsters, Sato Shinsui's identity was accidentally exposed.
This made him incredibly nervous, as the inherent prejudices of the public were deep-rooted; even now, the majority of the people still believed that these Jinchuriki were a scourge.
That very day, famous reporters from several highly renowned newspapers, television stations, and media organizations arrived one after another, all demanding to interview him.
Sato Shinsui stood at his front door, facing countless flashes and microphones, and said with forced calm: "Fellow reporters, regarding your questions, I still have a lot to say..."
And so, the matter of the Jinchuriki was leaked by him.
The next day, overwhelming reports poured in like a tidal wave; the front-page headlines of major newspapers, the golden hours of television stations, and even the tabloids on the streets were all frantically discussing one keyword — "Jinchuriki".
Striking headlines, paired with a blurry yet mysterious photo of Sato Shinsui, spread rapidly through the streets and alleys of the city.
At first, people felt strange and fearful of this term. Recalling the pain brought by the Monsters in the past, they subconsciously equated Jinchuriki with Monsters. The old prejudices were like an impregnable fortress, standing before any new concepts.
Because of this incident, internal conflicts even began to arise within Sato Shinsui's team, and they were once on the verge of parting ways.
For some reason, whenever it reached a critical moment, they had thousands of reasons in their hearts to actively convince themselves, which led to the entire team remaining in a state of being on the verge of collapse but never actually breaking.
But as time went on, new changes constantly appeared on the streets and alleys.
Some ordinary people who had inexplicably gained Jinchuriki powers transformed in public, fought against Monsters, and saved people who were supposed to have died from the hands of the Monsters.
Every thrilling victory and every act of guarding the citizens were like pebbles, shaking the stubborn barriers in people's hearts.
On internet forums, the topic of Jinchuriki changed from initial fear to curiosity and admiration.
Countless people uploaded battle videos they had filmed with their phones. In the footage, those ordinary, obscure people transformed into powerful warriors, waving fists full of strength and fighting to protect the city.
The term Jinchuriki gradually became shining, becoming an existence like the Magical Girl of the old era, symbolizing hope and justice.
The wave of a new era had inevitably arrived. In this wave, Sato Shinsui did not rest on his laurels.
His thirty-seventh wife, an intellectual and elegant woman, gave him a brilliant suggestion — to establish the Jinchuriki Agency.
"Gather all Jinchuriki, completely expel the Monsters, fight for everything beautiful in the world, and return peace to the world!" Sato Shinsui stood on a high platform, facing countless expectant gazes, and shouted this resounding slogan aloud.
This slogan, full of passion and hope, seemed to possess a kind of magic, instantly igniting the long-suppressed enthusiasm in the hearts of all Jinchuriki, and they joined or established new agencies without hesitation.
In a short period, the Jinchuriki Agency grew rapidly, with talents emerging in large numbers.
But even more surprisingly, from a new member who joined the agency, Sato Shinsui unexpectedly obtained the manufacturing method for the holy relic.
The turning point of history unfolded from here, and humanity began a new era of counterattacking the Monsters.
As Sato Shinsui led the Jinchuriki army, causing the fall of the first Monster city, the cheers were deafening, as if to sweep away the long-suppressed fear and despair.
And Sato Shinsui's fame and power reached their peak at this time.
On the smoke-filled battlefield, Sato Shinsui's figure was like a Heavenly God descending to earth, shining with brilliant light. Sato Shinsui felt the frenzied cheers of the crowd, and the joy of victory was as intoxicating as strong liquor, making him feel like he was floating on air.
To put it in plain terms, this kid got carried away.
But even if this kid was carried away, his cheat hadn't ended, because no matter which battlefield it was, wherever he went, he was victorious; even the so-called Monster Emperor moved the capital and fled, escaping into the interior.
Fifty years of time was enough to push a Mortal onto a pedestal of divinity.
Sato Shinsui went from an obscure wage earner to a legend, an epic, and a myth.
His name was tightly linked with "the strongest," "invincible," and "hope."
His Jinchuriki Agency spread across the globe, like a wall of steel, guarding the peace of humanity.
Flowers, applause, and praise poured in like a tidal wave, drowning him in illusory glory.
Power is a poison that corrodes the human heart, and Sato Shinsui was no exception.
He began to indulge in a luxurious life, obsessed with the game of power.
He was extravagant and debauched; his former innocence and kindness had long been replaced by arrogance and conceit.
Yet for some reason, even though he had done a series of terrible things, people seemed to know nothing about it, and what was offered to him was always only applause and praise.
In the end, this kid Sato Shinsui actually got carried away to the point of even declaring himself a god, enjoying the worship of all living beings and placing himself above everyone else.
On this day, Xiang Yan looked at Sato Shinsui, who had become mysteriously confident and considered himself the chosen one under his deliberate training, and feeling the weakening of his own second personality within him, a cold sneer curled up at the corner of his mouth.
Xiang Yan checked his backup plan, confirmed it was correct, and said to the member of the director team who had been following him for over 50 years: "Notify Your Majesty, the moment of the hunt has arrived!"
