My Ability Is Role-playing-Chapter 322 - 318: Lawless! Operation Shattered Jade!

Chapter 322: Chapter 318: Lawless! Operation Shattered Jade!

In the beginning, the reputation of "Profound Immortal Zhao Guanlan" was confined to the prestigious families and the financial conglomerates.

As time passed, under the combined influence of money and power, even ordinary people would discuss this name during their leisure.

Online, the flood of information and topics all related to "Profound Immortal Zhao Guanlan."

Ma Ran casually clicked on a post that seemed unrelated to the Profound Immortal Team, only to find Japanese netizens speculating and commenting about Profound Immortal Zhao Guanlan.

For instance, the post Ma Ran just opened titled "The Best Way to Cook Char Siu," seemed serious, sharing standard gourmet content.

From the second to the fourth floor, all comments were either thanks for sharing or nitpicking, saying that the method wasn’t authentic, and detailing the correct way to do it.

However, from the fifth floor onwards, the content diverged completely.

"Has anyone heard of the name ’Zhao Guanlan’?"

"[Profound Immortal]?"

"Wait a minute! How did the topic suddenly shift? Can’t you open a new post to discuss these issues? Robots?"

"You stupid deer! Does your father look like a robot?"

"Please stop arguing. It’s because posting outside has its reasons. After all, the [Profound Immortal Team] is currently Japan’s largest, most vicious, top-level yakuza force, and people are concerned for their own safety!"

"Ha! A bunch of idiots. If they really wanted to mess with you, even if you’re venting on a disconnected computer’s notepad, they would turn your corpses into cement pillars to fill the sea! The truth is, Profound Immortal Zhao Guanlan doesn’t care if others discuss him! He’s incredibly magnanimous; compared to him, other yakuza leaders are like dust, the difference is vast!"

"You say you’re not afraid, yet you’re the first to start praising."

"It’s not fear; it’s genuine admiration for the Profound Immortal Zhao Guanlan! You wealthy city folks don’t know how much better life has become for those of us living on the urban-rural fringe since the Profound Immortal Team’s influence took root!"

"A certain flower farmer from a certain town claims the comment above isn’t lying; the Profound Immortal Team isn’t your typical yakuza, they’re a truly special force."

"How sad! Speaking of being good to civilians, the Meat Mountain Team had the best reputation, didn’t they? Every holiday, they’d distribute gifts in nearby neighborhoods for free! But when they were annihilated overnight by the Profound Immortal Team, everyone started badmouthing them, making it seem like the Meat Mountain Team was filled with evil people bullying others. That’s not the case at all!"

"So what? In the underworld, it’s all about the victor being crowned king, and the loser having nothing! Without strength, you can’t protect anyone!"

"Because they’re winners, the Profound Immortal Team can seize a lot of resources, using the excess for the public welfare and winning people’s hearts!"

"You’re dead meat! I remember you posted a ’Daily Life Record’ video series; your name is Utagawa Koshi, living at 92 Sake Road, Zonglin Town, Central District, Kyoto City, Kyoto Prefecture! Hurry and buy a good samurai sword! Then, when the Profound Immortal Team arrives, you can commit seppuku and die with dignity!"

"???"

"Hey, stop speaking as if the Profound Immortal Team is already guilty of wrongdoing! In reality, weren’t most of the people or forces they eliminated notorious criminals?"

"I don’t care about that! Can anyone introduce me to join the [Profound Immortal Team]? I heard their ultimate goal is to expel all alien life from Earth! Just watching the promotional video got me fired up!"

"Are you aiming to become the Profound Immortal King’s man?"

"Please don’t make such nasty jokes carelessly! Profound Immortal Zhao Guanlan is said to be a man who can command thunder and lava, and anyone who offended him has died tragically in natural disasters!"

"Is it really possible for a human to control something as terrifying as lava?"

"I don’t know if lava truly exists, but the claim of ’commanding thunder’ is true! There’s a video on the Profound Immortal Team’s official website with Lord Zhao Guanlan controlling thunder to split the sea!"

"Commanding thunder to split the sea? Is my imagination too impoverished? How does thunder tear the sea apart? I can’t help but picture a third-rate superpower user flaunting their abilities—I watched the video already! I’m sorry! I’m a despicable, base pig! Profound Immortal is invincible! Long live Lord Zhao Guanlan! (The post content has been edited)

Reading this, Ma Ran chuckled lightly.

The Profound Immortal Team, as a yakuza force, not only had official certifications but even maintained an official website.

Their friend links section was filled with "allies" coerced through threats and inducements to join their ranks.

Those so-called allies were merely mouthpieces to speak for the Profound Immortal Team and promote them.

If we don’t claim the battlefield of public opinion, it’ll be occupied by the enemy.

Ma Ran just habitually seized the advantage.

Provenly, iron-fisted tactics combined with relentless information bombardment have outstanding results!

Not only have some people come to believe that everything the [Profound Immortal Team] does is ultimately to save the world, but even the Japanese side has subtly expressed a willingness to cooperate.

Ma Ran doesn’t need to be directly involved in these negotiations.

Even Zhou Yu and Ogata Shitou didn’t bother dealing with the negotiation experts sent by the Japanese side.

The reception was handled by "Three Cloud" class officers in the Profound Immortal Team, like Quanyi.

Releasing some false goodwill, pretending to coexist, and disguising themselves as radical factions determined to repel aliens at all costs...

The current controllers of this island unsurprisingly chose the appeasement policy.

Though it’s not total neglect, it can be said they’re sitting back and allowing the Profound Immortal Team’s power to expand.

The real reason for their reaction goes far beyond that; among the controlling groups, there are smart people who saw through the Profound Immortal Team’s ploys, but they won’t voice it out loud.

True wise men won’t rush to shout "The Profound Immortal Team must be eliminated" just by guessing a bit of the truth—such fools all met "accidental deaths" in no time.

Many things don’t require Ma Ran’s personal intervention.

Ogata Shitou and Zhou Yu themselves have excellent leadership skills, which activated their talents and abilities through slight cultivation in the Profound Immortal Team.

Ma Ran only needs to show an attitude, and these two generals will handle matters smoothly and without leaving any future troubles.

It is worth mentioning that in these few days, the vested interests obstructing the Profound Immortal Team’s path launched an assassination operation against "Profound Immortal Zhao Guanlan," named [Jade Fragment].

In just a few days, "Profound Immortal Zhao Guanlan" faced thirty-nine assassination attempts.

Assassins, hitmen, ninjas, poison experts, superpower users, inner qi cultivators, snipers, mercenary groups...
