- The Reincarnation World Where Only I Know the Storyline
- RWWOKS Chapter 228
South Coast, somewhere.
“Don’t think you can do whatever you want!!!”
The man roared and launched his attack, his fist moving so fast it left only a blur behind.
From the side, it looked like a black venomous snake constantly striking.
Yamazaki Ryuji was seething with anger; he hadn’t expected even Mai Shiranui, that troublesome woman, would dare come looking for trouble.
Did she think just changing her clothes would make her unrecognizable?
Feeling insulted, Yamazaki Ryuji immediately launched a relentless assault on the woman.
It was clear he had the upper hand in terms of raw power.
When he landed a punch that sent her flying several meters, Yamazaki Ryuji could almost picture himself stepping on her, victorious.
But what happened next completely caught him off guard.
The “Mai Shiranui” before him suddenly switched her fighting style, moving from the agile and fluid Shiranui style to a ruthless, close-range, fast-paced assault.
A single moment of carelessness, and Yamazaki Ryuji’s chest was slashed with blood.
In terms of fighting technique, he was completely outclassed by this woman.
How could this be?
Was this the same weakling who barely ranked in the King of Fighters tournament?
At first, Yamazaki Ryuji was baffled, but when he finally got a chance to strike back, the woman used the wind to obscure his vision.
It was at this moment that he realized who she was.
“Ugh.” He groaned in pain, clutching his head as he felt the Orochi blood in him begin to boil violently.
It was as if the blood was urging him to fulfill the mission of the Eight Devils.
“It’s you, so it really is you!” Yamazaki Ryuji drew his dagger and continued using his ultimate move, Snake Master, to attack.
Kyo Kage skillfully dodged his strikes, keeping her eyes locked on the large man across from her.
“Do you still want to resist your destiny?” she asked.
“Of course.” As a member of the Eight Devils, Yamazaki Ryuji rarely chose to defy his fate.
Not even the Orochi blood could control him.
Just as the man had once said, even death would not force him to submit to Orochi’s power.
In the past, Kyo Kage had been furious, believing that Yamazaki had desecrated the sacred mission of the Eight Devils.
But after being defeated by the Three Sacred Treasures, certain thoughts had begun to change quietly within her.
Seeing the defiance on Yamazaki Ryuji’s face now, she thought she would be angry, but instead, she felt an unusual calm.
“Fine.”
Kyo Kage understood the man’s feelings, but as a leader, she couldn’t let him go so easily.
She dodged the Snake Shadow Fist and raised her right hand, forming a claw above her head, as though holding up the endless sky.
MAX Super Special Move · True Eight Young Girl!
“Endure and live, and I will spare your life.”
Before the words even finished, her claws slashed a deep wound across Yamazaki Ryuji’s chest.
With the rush of wind, Kyo Kage’s attacks grew more violent, as if she was trying to tear apart everything in her path.
When she gripped Yamazaki Ryuji by the neck, the once-proud top fighter was now gasping for breath, near death.
“…” In the end, Kyo Kage didn’t strike the final blow.
Looking down at the powerless comrade, she slowly raised her hand, stopping just three inches from his forehead.
“I hereby announce that, from this moment on, you are stripped of your identity as a member of the Heavenly Kingdom.”
As soon as the words left her mouth, Yamazaki Ryuji felt his blood begin to boil within him, slowly leaving his body.
From then on, he was completely free from his inherited fate.
“You…” Yamazaki Ryuji struggled to rise, taking cautious steps backward.
The leader of the Heavenly Kingdom was unpredictable, and he feared she might strike him down.
If that happened, today would likely be his last.
Fortunately, his greatest fear didn’t come to pass. Kyo Kage, after absorbing Orochi’s blood, refrained from killing him.
Staring at the face of his fellow clansman, Kyo Kage spoke softly: “Go find Kiyokage and participate in the King of Fighters tournament with him. Once you complete this task, I will spare your life.”
Given that she had given him such face, Yamazaki Ryuji knew that if he refused, it would only mean his death.
After a moment’s hesitation, he nodded slightly, saying, “Fine, I hope you’ll keep your word.”
A gust of wind suddenly surged, and Kyo Kage’s figure disappeared before his eyes.
Having narrowly escaped death, Yamazaki Ryuji fell into a brief silence before picking up his phone and dialing a number. Within moments, he had located the performance venue of the Descent to Hell Band.
He couldn’t understand Kyo Kage’s intentions, nor why she had suddenly come to find him.
As a former member of the Heavenly Kingdom, Yamazaki Ryuji knew all too well that Orochi’s resurrection was still far off.
Without the help of their “father,” the Heavenly Kingdom had no choice but to slink in the shadows.
He scoffed and quickly left his residence.
“The King of Fighters tournament… it’s been a long time since I’ve seen this event.”
Soaring high into the sky on the wings of the wind, Kyo Kage released the full extent of her power.
As her strength surged, the sky erupted into a violent storm, as if a god was showing their wrath to the world.
This was the power of the Wind of Breath.
Wind of Breath (Legendary): Orochi’s blood grants you control over the wind, increasing mental attributes by +10 and enhancing wind-based skills’ final damage by +20%.
After absorbing Yamazaki Ryuji’s Orochi blood, Kyo Kage’s power had finally recovered somewhat.
Though it wasn’t anywhere near her peak, she was still a top-tier fighter.
Beep beep!
At that moment, a strange electronic sound reached her ears.
Amid the howling winds at ten thousand meters above the ground, only someone with control over wind power like Kyo Kage could detect such a subtle sound.
Having taken Mai Shiranui’s body, she had inherited the woman’s memories and certain habits.
Previously, as a man, she wouldn’t have known how to operate modern technological equipment.
But now, things were different. Before leaving, she had even left her phone number with Kiyokage and the others.
It was a change. Kyo Kage herself wasn’t sure whether it was for better or worse, but for now, she didn’t particularly mind it.
She opened her phone’s messages and saw a text from an unfamiliar number.
[It’s me. The matter over there has been dealt with. It’s time to teach Nests a lesson.]
From the tone, Kyo Kage knew exactly who it was—the one who had successfully unsealed her.
Kyo Kage had always found this person hard to figure out.
Not because of his personality or character, but because of something deeper and more hidden.
The fact that he chose to resurrect her must have had a very specific purpose. Taking on the Nests organization was simply a necessary step to fulfill that goal.
If she couldn’t see that much, then Kyo Kage might as well have wasted the thousands of years she had lived.
“I’m growing more and more eager to see the moment when the mystery is revealed.”
Having confirmed his location, she immediately changed course and headed for a direct confrontation with the Nests organization.
After flying for about half a day, Kyo Kage finally arrived at the small town where the target was located.
As soon as she landed, she saw her teammate, who was happily munching on a roasted whole lamb.
“Well, that was quick,” Fang Bo waved his hand.
“…” Looking at the way he was devouring the food, Kyo Kage couldn’t help but recall the tiring journey she’d just endured. If her temper hadn’t mellowed lately, she would have made him taste the True Eight Young Girl herself.
Without further hesitation, she sat down across from him, ignoring his curious gaze, and grabbed a lamb leg, starting to devour it herself.
She was starving and completely forgot the so-called “God Clan dining etiquette.”
Meanwhile, Fang Bo used his information sensing to check on the status of the last team member.
[Kyo Kage (Four Heavenly Kings)]
[Attack Preference: Low]
[Attribute Inclination: Mental, Agility, Strength, Perception]
[Trait: Breath of the Storm (Legendary), Heavenly Kingdom Clan]
[Threat Level: Extremely Dangerous]
“The threat level has increased, and there’s a new attribute—Perception.”
“Looks like she hasn’t been idle during this time.”
However, Fang Bo was well aware that Kyo Kage wasn’t at her peak yet.
As described by Kiyokage, if she continued to absorb the power of other God Clan members, her strength would see a significant boost.
“Seems like you’ve had quite the harvest,” he commented.
Upon hearing this, Kyo Kage calmly wiped her mouth and inadvertently exposed her smooth white thigh beneath the priestly robes.
“Your strength has also improved.” She could sense the changes in her teammate.
That peculiar aura, resembling the Orochi power, was similar to a special variant of divine power. Even Kyo Kage, who had seen and experienced much, couldn’t quite pinpoint it.
Fang Bo knew exactly what she was sensing—it was the Nightmare Power.
It was a result of a treasure chest reward from Geese, which had boosted his output capability by several tiers.
Even a top-tier fighter could easily be gravely injured by his ultimate move if they weren’t careful.
From there, neither of them spoke further, instead focusing on finishing off the unfortunate lamb.
Once they were done eating and drinking, Fang Bo took out his communicator and sent a message.
“The operation can begin.”

Somewhere in South Africa, Nests Organization G5 Base.
In a lavish bedroom, a blonde, blue-eyed woman gently swirled her wine glass.
Her thin shirt clung to her body, failing to conceal her seductive figure.
On the large bed nearby, three burly men were dressing, clearly having just participated in some unspeakable activities.
Amid the intense and demanding tasks, she liked to unwind in this way.
Men or women—she didn’t care. She simply enjoyed the process.
It was a pity, though—the man she most desired stubbornly refused to submit, which inevitably made her feel a bit frustrated.
“Get ready, the bait is hooked,” the blonde woman said casually, not bothering to hide her intentions as she walked out. She quickly reached the innermost cell.
Inside, a man’s hands were nailed to the stone pillars, his body suspended in mid-air.
“Still refusing to accept your fate?” The woman’s body began to levitate, her cold, haughty gaze fixed on the man’s face. “Or do you still hold out hope, thinking that little white rat can defeat us?”
“I have to admit, Number Seven is quite impressive, killing one of my avatars, but his power won’t go beyond that.”
She laughed suddenly, extending her snow-white arm and using her nails to carve a long, bloody line across her arm.
In just two seconds, the wound healed miraculously. This regenerative ability was quite remarkable.
“Do you understand what this means?”
Seeing this, Olsen, who had remained silent with his head down, suddenly lifted his gaze. His determined eyes flickered with the slightest change.
With a smirk, the woman shook her head, turning to float toward the entrance. “Your little companions have already fallen into our trap. Soon, they’ll walk straight into the carefully prepared snare.”
“By then, Jason will personally step in and make him remember the terror of having his body and mind controlled.”
“…”
Olsen lowered his head again, seemingly indifferent to the woman’s words.
He knew that the man would undoubtedly come to rescue him, which was precisely why the enemy had been able to manipulate him.
Now, he could only hope that Fang Bo would sense the trap in time and avoid falling into it.
This plan was bound to fail, and Olsen’s only wish was that not all of them would die in the King of Fighters world.
If he could survive, there might still be a chance for a comeback in the future.
That man had extraordinary talent and rapid growth. Perhaps one day, he would truly be able to take on the entire Orphanage.
