Reborn as a tiger cub, I'm too weak, so I can only rely on self-discipline.

Chapter 378 I want all the benefits, but I will never take on any responsibility!

"Ah—!!! Kato Kengo...you are indeed very strong..."

But... but you can kill us now.

Now they're acting as dogs for the beasts of the Dragon Kingdom...

But it won't be long before you regret it...you definitely will!

With a single slash from Kato Kengo, Yamamoto's left arm was severed at the shoulder.

He could only clutch his severed arm, grit his teeth, and howl in agony.

"I will never regret killing scum."

Kato Kengo was unaffected by his words and said coldly.

As he spoke, his long sword fell swiftly and decisively, severing Yamamoto's head.

With a flick of his longsword, Kato Kengo brushed away the blood and walked expressionlessly toward the other high-ranking members of the Cleanser Alliance.

……

Buzz~!

Only after the last third-tier evolved being of the Cleanser Alliance fell did the little sable release the spatial confinement.

This skill does not require much spiritual power to maintain; it only consumes more spiritual power when attacked.

However, the battle was neither as intense nor as interesting as Cangnian had imagined.

After all, the gap between the two sides was quite large, so a one-sided massacre naturally didn't look very satisfying.

Even though Kato Kengo had been saving his spiritual power to unleash his time-stretching skill, he never had the chance to use it.

The Cleaners Alliance's evolved beings are too weak.

Actually, this is quite normal.

After all, at the beginning of the spiritual energy revival, these evolved beings who had been turned into polluters for various reasons were the leaders of the major civilian forces in Fugang City.

Whether it was jealousy or a struggle for interests, the originally more powerful evolved beings were crippled, turned into polluters, and became cannon fodder standing in front of others to resist the threat from the ocean.

Those evolved beings who remain in the rear and wield power can only be those who are relatively ordinary and weaker.

In addition, the two sides have been in completely different environments over the past two and a half months.

Kato Kengo and the others are always engaged in battle the moment they open their eyes, even though their opponents are mindless, corrupted evolved creatures.

However, their sheer numbers and high average evolutionary level meant they lived in a hellish environment every day, honing their ruthless killing skills to the point that they were ingrained in their conditioned reflexes.

In contrast, consider the evolved beings of the Cleansers Alliance.

Fukuminato City is located on Kushu Island, the third largest of the four major islands in Japan.

With its small area, small population, and lack of large wildlife communities, there are not many evolved creatures after the spiritual energy revival.

This was quite convenient for them when they evacuated to the rear and settled down.

At least, very few people were killed by attacks from evolved creatures during the evacuation.

But this is also a drawback.

Japan, a tiny country with a population of 125 million, has a food self-sufficiency rate of less than 40% and is extremely dependent on imports.

After the spiritual energy revived, even going to sea became difficult, let alone importing food.

Therefore, given the scarcity of wildlife populations, the Cleaners Alliance's ability to produce even a few hundred Tier 3 evolvers is already at its limit.

Resource scarcity was one issue, but the threat from the ocean was also largely mitigated by Kato Kengo's small village.

Even if some marine creatures managed to bypass the small village and reach the Cleaners Alliance's territory, there were plenty of firearms to deal with them.

Therefore, in such an environment, the evolved beings of the Cleaners Alliance have almost no experience in fighting, except for vying for power and resources among themselves.

How could such a group be a match for Kato Kengo and others, evolved beings who had fought their way out of mountains of corpses and seas of blood?

The reason they were able to persist for so long was simply because Kato Kengo and the others needed to adapt to their normal bodies and the new way of fighting.

Otherwise, these high-ranking members of the Cleansers Alliance would have been taken down long ago.

At this moment, Kato Kengo came to Cangnian's side, knelt down with a thud, and expressed his gratitude.

"Mr. Kato said, 'Thank you for your help, Lord Beast King, and your companions.'"

Otherwise, if these high-ranking members of the Cleansers Alliance escape, it would take a very long time to hunt them down.

That could very well endanger innocent civilians.

With your help, Lord Beast King, we were able to successfully exact our revenge.

Mr. Kato once again earnestly requests that you grant him the right to follow you.

Ye Han, who was standing to the side, translated fluently.

"Ow~!"

Cangnian was somewhat tempted by this, but after thinking about it, he shook his head.

He had witnessed Kato Kengo's strength firsthand, and it was indeed formidable.

Moreover, with the ability to manipulate time, even if he only has one skill, his potential in the future will definitely be great.

However, he is from Japan.

From their brief time together, Cang Nian could tell that Kato Kengo, despite his ancestral background, was quite close to the Dragon Kingdom.

But this does not mean that he denies his identity as a Japanese.

He had a simple sense of national pride and believed that as a strongman, he should protect the people who lived together in the same country.

There's nothing wrong with that.

Both Yichen and Qin Changyi are such people, which is why they did their best to lead Kangcheng through those difficulties and obstacles.

However, Kato Kengo wants to protect the people of Japan.

Putting aside the fact that Cang Nian was a radical radical before his rebirth, even considering only practical issues, he couldn't accept Kato Kengo following him.

Japan is facing food shortages and has also reaped the consequences of nuclear contamination, polluting the surrounding marine life.

Cang Nian could imagine that survivors throughout the Sakura Kingdom were generally suffering from severe famine.

Given Kato Kengo's personality, he would never sit idly by.

But if he wants to take charge, how should he do it?

Should we send Japanese people to live on the peninsula?

Leaving aside whether the locals on the peninsula are willing or not, just considering the closest point between Japan and the peninsula, namely Fukuko City, there is a strait that is one or two hundred kilometers away.

Such a migration would be impossible without large ships for transport.

And let Cangnian use the South Korean fleet to transport the people of Japan?

Did he think the warship had too much fuel?

In short, unless it's just Kato Kengo alone, or only those who were previously corrupted and whom he saved, who follow him.

Otherwise, Cang Nian wouldn't want to attract a whole host of troubles because of a relatively capable subordinate.

On his side, the Northeast Allied Army of the Dragon Kingdom already has enough men.

Therefore, neither his subjective aversion to the Sakura Kingdom nor a series of objective issues allowed Cangnian to accept Kato Kengo's allegiance.

Does his refusal of Kato Kengo's allegiance mean that Kato Kengo will forget about his help?

Then, when I need his help, will he refuse because of this?

Obviously, that's impossible!

In this way, one can neither accept nor refuse, nor take responsibility, and still enjoy the benefits of the loyalty relationship with Kato Kengo!

I want all the benefits, but I'll never take on any responsibility!

"Uh...why does this feel a bit like a green tea bitch..."

Cang Nian, who was initially pleased with his decision, suddenly muttered to himself.
