"Jaden, are you really going to Dinosaur Island?"
Erina wouldn't usually question Jaden about ordinary matters, but going to Dinosaur Island to hunt was something even she rarely asked about.
"Ah... I am indeed going."
Jaden looked at Erina's slightly worried expression and slowly smiled.
"But there's nothing to worry about-even dinosaurs are just that. Instead of worrying about me, you should worry about Kure Fuki, who insists on coming along."
That's right.
After Kure Fuki learned that Jaden was going to Dinosaur Island, she also decided to go with Jaden.
And some of the Kure Clan elite combatants would follow along, while others would stay with Karura to ensure Erina's safety.
Without them, Jaden probably wouldn't feel comfortable leaving Erina here alone while he went to Dinosaur Island.
After all, Erina is different from Katahara Metsudo; she just became the Kengan Association Chairman, and her own base of support has not been fully established yet.
Before these Kure Clan elites arrived, Jaden was confident that he was a fighter not inferior to any Fang of Metsudo, but Erina didn't have a shield comparable to the Katahara Guard Team.
But with these Kure Clan elites, Erina's shield was secured.
In this way, Jaden could confidently do some things.
"She only wants to go because of you..."
Erina glanced at Jaden, causing Jaden to noticeably shrink his neck.
Making Jaden flinch... this is probably something only Erina in the whole world could do.
The former Erina would never say such things because she and Jaden hadn't established a relationship at the time-so even though Erina knew that Jaden would definitely care if she said it, she also knew that she didn't have the standing to say such things back then.
That would be too unfair to Jaden.
That's why after Kure Fuki and Karura arrived, Erina tried to establish a relationship with Jaden several times.
Because if she didn't establish a relationship with Jaden, no matter how good their relationship was, no matter how much they implicitly acknowledged it-if Jaden established a relationship with someone else during that time, she would have no reason to say anything.
Otherwise, it would be too unfair to Jaden.
Not establishing a relationship with him, yet not allowing him to have a relationship with other women... Erina thought that kind of behavior wasn't right.
But now it's different.
Now that they have established a relationship, while Erina won't always say something out of trust for Jaden, she will say it when necessary.
After all...
"Even I get jealous, Jaden."
Hearing Erina say this, Jaden blinked.
"That's easy to handle-before we leave, I'll help you knock out Kure Fuki and tie her up in the Nakiri family's basement. You just remember to bring her food."
"That's enough..."
Although Erina found it amusing, she could tell Jaden wasn't joking, so she held back her laughter and shook her head very seriously.
"And it's good that Fuki is going with you... you martial artists all don't carry hot weapons, but Fuki will carry some firearms, which can at least save your life if things get truly desperate."
Erina, who said this, had all the slight jealousy she had just felt instantly dissipate.
It was replaced by worry for Jaden.
"Jaden... if the situation is truly desperate, don't hold back against the dinosaurs-I will handle other matters, but you must come back alive!"
Hearing Erina say this, Jaden didn't say anything more-I'm super brave, okay? No one knows more about hunting dinosaurs than me-such a line.
Instead, he lowered his voice and looked seriously into Erina's eyes.
Jaden only spoke after looking at her until her face flushed slightly.
"Don't worry... I won't do anything I'm not completely confident about."
"Even for you, I will survive... so, don't worry."
"Mm..."
There was no one around; this was Erina's office, and besides Hisako and Alice, everyone else would knock before entering.
But Alice recently returned to Northern Europe, and Hisako was helping Erina deal with some issues regarding Dinosaur Island.
So, there was no one here, and no one would disturb them.
After looking at each other for a while, Jaden and Erina's shadows overlapped.
Jaden wouldn't take the next step for now.
However, everything that could be done up to the moment before that final step could still be done.
A good while later, Jaden left Erina's office.
Erina sat in her chair, panting slightly with a flushed face, and then she spent some time smoothing her clothes and calming her emotions.
Then, Erina looked at the spot where Jaden had left, and honestly, she was still a bit worried.
From preparation to departure for Jaden to go to Dinosaur Island, it would take about half a month... hmm, let's take advantage of this time to take some more insurance measures.
With this thought, Erina picked up the phone.
-She planned to convene a Kengan meeting!
There were quite a few Kengan Association fighters in the team going to Dinosaur Island to capture dinosaurs, so... it was only reasonable for her, the Kengan Association Chairman, to use the power of the Kengan Association to take some protective measures to ensure the safety of her fighters, right?
...
Jaden originally planned to go back and prepare a little during this time.
Dinosaurs were just food to Pickle, and by the time he was ready to leave, his Pickle panel would probably be fused to 99%, or at least 80%.
Hunting dinosaurs then... would be as easy as eating and drinking for him.
And if he could hunt a Tyrannosaurus Rex, then his Dragon Back would be settled.
As for the preparation time...
-Jaden intended to settle the score with Yujiro Hanma during this time!
He was now on a completely different path from Yujiro Hanma... or rather, he was on the same path, but in terms of purity-his purity was definitely far beyond Yujiro Hanma's!
Once he absorbed Pickle's template, his physical quality would reach an incredibly astonishing level.
Yujiro Hanma would have to use technique when fighting him, or else he would definitely lose!
He acknowledged Yujiro Hanma's strength, and he and Yujiro Hanma were on the same road in the pursuit of strength.
But...
Their methods of pursuing strength were different.
Yujiro Hanma was the supreme one standing on the high mountain-he possessed excellent technique and powerful physical quality; he was the best combination of skill and strength.
And him...
-He was now on the path of purely releasing violence!
If he had to say it, Yujiro Hanma was more like a martial artist than he was.
And he was more like the strong individuals in the One Piece world!
And before he went to Dinosaur Island, he planned to have a decisive battle with Yujiro Hanma!
Last time the other party opened his Demon Back and stood there talking nonsense to him; this time, it would be his turn to stand there, looking down at Yujiro Hanma and feeding him crooked reasoning!
He had to properly tell him-the times have changed!
Just as Jaden was about to go back and prepare for this matter, his phone suddenly rang.
This made Jaden pause for a moment.
Because generally, no one would call him.
Erina occasionally calls him, but others-don't even know his mobile number; they must contact him through Erina.
Since Jaden is very afraid of trouble, he leaves all these matters to Erina.
So, very few people have his phone number.
The moment the phone rang, Jaden thought it was the old director calling him and quickly took out his phone.
Then he looked and realized.
-It was his cheap editor, Machida.
Jaden hesitated for a moment, but finally answered.
"Hello..."
"Kiryu-sensei, although this is not a work matter but a private matter, I hope you can help me. This is the request of my lifetime; I will agree to anything you ask, please help me!"
Hearing Machida say this, Jaden sighed.
He hadn't paid attention to his novel for a long time.
He happened to have time today, so he finally nodded.
"Alright... give me the address, but I'll say this beforehand: if it's too much trouble, I will refuse."
"Okay, I understand! Thank you for the trouble!"
