Doomsday. (Part 2)

(As the alert of the incoming threat was somehow leaked to public press a day later, news of the Ghoul's plan has been spread across the globe, the news has hit Japan where bystanders whom were witnessing the news were suddenly in a panic. During the panic of fear, Ben Holland was seen resting in the main lounge, sleeping with a bloated stomach after eating pounds and pounds of food. Negan then notices the sleeping Ben and wakes him up with two taps on the kneecap.)

"Negan: Hey. Wake up, fatty!"
"Ben: ...mm.. H-huh...? What.. time is it..?"
"Negan: It's three, in the evening."
"Ben: Oh.. great.."
"Negan: Damn... How much did you eat?"
"Ben: ...Uh... I think I had about.. twenty seven different burgers, six large boxes of heavily salted fries, two plates of spaghetti with meatballs, I've had four bowls of ramen, some... trays of sushi and.. I think I ate a whole turkey..?"

(As the door was immediately busted through, Goto has returned to the Uesaka Manor in a rush to alert the group.)

"Goto: Negan!!!"
"Negan: WHOA! WHOA! Wait a fucking minute! Who the hell you think you are barging in like that?!"
"Goto: Spare me the lecture, this is urgent! ...The Mercenary Association in China, along with the Global Ascendancy Front are both looking for Bai Zhen!"
"Negan: ...Repeat that?"
"Goto: Look. Long story short, the Ghouls has some kind of plan to turn all of China into a Ghoul hotspot. The reason they're looking for Bai is because he's the only human with Ghoul DNA. They plan to use him for experimentation to track the Ghouls faster."
"Negan: After what the kid already went through, they expect us to come the fuck back to China like that?"
"Goto: Negan, I get you're upset and I'm just as mad as you. But we need to make a decision."
"Ben: What's going on here..?"
"Negan: The bastards are attempting to take Bai back to Hong Kong."
"Ben: Wha?!"
"Goto: Negan, how long until Zhen and Miss Yi return from school?"
"Negan: They should be walking home at the moment."
"Goto: Get Mr. Holland here and anyone else that knows in the family lounge and give me 10 minutes, I have to make some calls."

(With time that passes, Negan and the party of Ben, Silke, Jikouji and Goto sitting together in the lounge area of the manor.)

"Goto: Thank you all for coming, I'll just get straight down to business. The Chinese Mercenary Association along with the Global Ascendancy Front has been tasked to find Bai and take him back to Hong Kong."
"Jikouji: So soon? And isn't he blacklisted from his own home country?"
"Goto: He was. But then I've received an email from Uesaka. The forwarded email comes from Yueja Jiia of the Chinese Mercenary Association, on their reasonings to why they request Bai Zhen's assistance."

(As Goto then shares his phone to a holographic screen, the email containing attachments revealed plans of a Ghoul rocket, set to launch at China in September.)

"Ben: ...! That's a-"
"Jikouji: -Rocket full of Ghouls..?!"
"Silke: ..No way... Why would they even- HOW DO YOU HAVE THE TECHNOLOGY?!"
"Goto: Its very bad yes. The reason they need Bai Zhen's help is because he has the Ghoul abilities he's purposely kept away. Lady Yueja has a belief that if Bai's Ghoul abilities were awakened, they could track the rocket and the lair of the 15 Ghouls."
"Negan: ..."

(With an urge to destroy the Chinese Mercenary Association, Negan then sits back down and cools himself off before speaking.)

"Negan: Even if we were to reawaken Bai's Ghoul side, there's the very high chance of him losing control of his urges if he does unlock it again."
"Silke: He's right, we can't risk his Ghoul urges to take over."
"Jikouji: I vote we keep him here in Japan. The kid's got resistance but he's not powerful to handle Ghouls like Deadfall, Gonu or the Triple Ghoul himself. He needs more time to awaken his abilities."
"Goto: We only have till September but we don't know what date they'll launch the operation."
"Negan: September's a week away. Either I let Hong Kong be and suffer the devastation or... I go back there and beat the crap out of every Mercenary in China for being two-faced bastards."
"Goto: Settle down, Negan. We need to think, is it even possible for Bai's Ghoul abilities to awaken further beyond?"
"Jia: It is."

(All at the table then notices a dirt-tracked Jia, whom has returned from a fight with her school clothes ruined and bruised eye.)

"Jia: ...One of Bai's Ghoul abilities was used earlier this evening... Me and Bai was ambushed by Ghouls and he managed to scare them off, with a new terrifying ability.."
"Negan: ...Where is he now..?"
"Jia: ...As we speak... Bai's currently flying across waters to get back to China."
"All: ...?!!!"

(With Bai Zhen abandoning his new persona in Japan, he'd use his Jet Blessing to rocket across the land and seas to get to China. Meanwhile in South Korea, the Korean Mercenary Association has detected Bai Zhen in the skies within 10 minutes later.)

"Male Sky Analysist #1: Sir, there's an unidentified object flying in the skies. But it's radiating Ghoul-like energy and is clocked around Mach 1 speeds."

(Watching the many surveillance monitors is an old admiral with an all-white coat hanging off of his shoulders, a long yet trimmed beard and a cocky attitude.)

"Ujin Mun-Yong (Power: Detonation Blessing | Korean Mercenary Association Leader) : Leave it be, it's not our target and it's not our enemy. But a certain someone is going to intercept it, even if I wanted to attack."
"Male Sky Analysist #1: Sir.. You don't mean-"
"Ujin: I mean the Ghoul Carver."

(With Bai continuing to rocket over South Korea, he'd begin to suffer a painful pulse in the head but realizes an incoming power signature approaching at a faster speed. Before Bai could evade, a portal of darkness spawns in front of Bai and out of the portal was a powerful punch, blasting Bai into the East China Sea, the waters between China and South Korea as Bai then realizes he's in trouble. With time to evade, Bai then quickly reactivates the Jet Blessing and rockets to China at Mach 8 speeds. Out of the assailant's view, Bai reaches the land of China but has arrived in the city of Shanghai. With civilians in worry that Bai Zhen has returned to China, rising out of the water was a 5'9 male mercenary wearing a dark colored and tattered cloak, lightweight cybernetic armor with a color scheme of purple, heavy sole combat boots and one powerful energy source surging from the mercenary as many bystanders of Shanghai were aware of the arrival of the surprise mercenary.)

"Bystander #1: ...! THAT'S THE SHADOW KING!"
"Bystander #2: THE SHADOW KING?!"
"Bai: ...! I don't know who the hell you are but I'm needed back in my home country!"
"Kygin (Power: Darkness Spirit, Shadow Curse | Elite-Class Mercenary | Ghoul Carver): My rumors were true. If the news of the Ghouls actions were to come to light, this would urge you to return to China, despite you being blacklisted from the country."
"Bai: How the fuck do you know me...?"
"Kygin: ...You'd seriously ask your killer that very question?"
"Bai: ..."
"Kygin: I knew everything about you, long before the Ghouls even were known. Instead of Bounty Hunting, I now hunt those mutated bastards... These bastards had much firepower to have you dead and Negan arrested and they've just let you go."
"Bai: You don't understand...! I may be connected but I have-"
"Kygin: You're connected to the Ghouls but what?"
"Bai: I HAVE THE POWER TO DEFEAT THEM OKAY?! I'm not as powerful as I am yet to actually defeat them, but you have to believe me... I have the power to defeat the Triple Ghoul..!"
"Kygin: ...I find that to be the biggest bullshit I have ever had to hear. How the fuck can a good-for-nothing, teenage runaway pissant like you have the power to eliminate a Category X threat? The only thing you're good for is being dead for the thousands that are suffering because of you!"

(Without any filter in Kygin's tone, Bai then began to back up in fear after successfully being intimidated by the Ghoul Carver. As Kygin then walks towards Bai, he'd generate a dark aura as Bai then was prepared to run once again.)

"Kygin: The hell do you think you're going...?"

(With one dash of Kygin, Bai was immediately punched into the stomach followed up by Bai becoming impaled by multiple spikes throughout his stomach.)

"Kygin: Now starts, your slow torture to your death!"
