Adventures in Shura Field

Xiuta didn't know what it was.He's very, very scared now.Scared more than ever.He has never expected All Might to appear in front of him so much, or it doesn't matter if it's not All Might, anyone, any professional hero, anyone, come and save yourself... What the hell is that?

Metal skin, metal mask, white clothes, white cloak, and eyes shining with white light.If there is really any messenger of justice, Shuta thought, then it must have this terrifying appearance.I don't know if this is its personality, the gun is completely useless to him.Shuta's personality allows him to perfectly use stealth for a short period of time, during which he can completely disappear from people's sight. Although it is not really invisible, it is enough for him to save himself from danger every time.

He didn't want to be the 'bad guy' if possible.The reason why it is not an enemy is because Xiutai is not sure whether his petty theft is considered an enemy level.He is still very young, but he also knows that before personalities, there are criminals among human beings.Then I might be about the same as them.

Xiutai doesn't want to whitewash his actions too much, he knows it's a crime, he knows it's wrong, but if he has a way, if he has even a little other way... That person, that's called Jiexiu Shi Even though Xiuta knows that he is not a good person, the existence of the Shihoubazhai Society may be a good thing in the current situation.

People only pay attention to the bright appearance, but they don't know that no matter how prosperous the city is, there are shadows.It's not that some people don't want to be a good person, it's not that they don't want to live a normal life, it's that they can't.They have no choice, if they want to survive, if they want to protect important people, then...they can only go into the depths of darkness, keep going, keep going.

Because light will not save them, and heroes will not have mercy on them.Xiutai knows that the repair master is also such a person.Although I only saw him once from a distance, those soulless eyes said everything.Maybe one day, I will become like him, maybe one day, I will not stop at petty crimes, but become a real 'enemy', but...

This is no choice.It's not an excuse, it's about having no choice.It is better to move forward in the only direction that can be advanced than to complain about others in place.That way you will die, so you can live.

The robot just now was ridiculously strong. Xiuta has seen many professional heroes trying to catch her, but she has never seen this kind.The personalities of many professional heroes are not capable of effective 'defense', which means that guns are still effective against them. They know this clearly, so when criminals pull out their guns, they will become cautious.But the guy just now, he also clearly understood that the gun was completely useless to him, so he went on a rampage.

His partner was caught.Although it's a partner, it doesn't matter that Xiuta can go back to save him.That guy is probably a professional hero, if that's the case, the partner will only stay in jail for a month or so at most.This kind of thing is also commonplace.It's almost winter, and there's no need to find a place to stay overnight.It's just that I still have important things to do, and it's not okay to be locked up for a few months.

The guy didn't catch up to him, and seemed to have thrown off.My personality is very good at escaping, this is probably the only 'gift' given by God.Xiuta looked back at the empty alley.After confirming that there were no pursuers, he breathed a sigh of relief.Then he took out what was in his clothes.

It was a pack of medicines wrapped in paper and plastic, because it was not obtained through 'regular channels', so there was no packaging, just simple pills wrapped in paper.He checked to see if the capsule outside the pill was crushed, and then put the bag back into his arms.These should be enough for the next month...so good.

A few days ago, I made a big order with my partner, all thanks to the mercy of the Shihoubazhai Society.After one of their contacts found out about their business, he specially found an order for himself.Although it was a bit dangerous, and I was a little bit hurt in the end, everything was worth it.Just like what I just said, sometimes, the existence of an organization like the Shigui Basai Society can make people like Xiuta see a little bit of gray hope.

"Hey... I'm back."

Xiutai returned to her home.Fortunately, although he has nothing left, he still has a home that can shelter him from the elements.The linker of the same Yazhai Society allowed him to stay in this hut, all because the elderly mafia had some compassion.People have a conscience, probably.In the past, the Deathly Foul Bazhai Association was a moral organization, but recently... the young master named Jiexiu Shi often ordered things that were not very commendable.

Some people thought it was depravity, but Xiuta found it ridiculous.What is the nobleness of the underworld?How can criminals be classified as high or low?To live, people just want to... live.That person called the repairer, he must have also desperately grasped a straw in the darkness, and then moved on.If human beings do not have something worth cherishing and pursuing, then they are completely finished.In order to avoid that kind of thing, people will go to grasp everything they see. Healer, that's the kind of person.

If she had to say it, Xiutai even felt that he was a little pitiful.

"You still... cough cough... Xiutai..."

"I'm fine! Xuezhi! Don't get out of bed!"

Xiutai immediately closed the door and ran into the small room. There was no other furniture here, only a dining table, a bed and a bathroom.It is said that this was originally a small stronghold of the Bazhai Society, but due to the sharp decrease in personnel in recent years, no one is using it anymore.The house is not big, but to Xiuta, this place is considered luxurious.He came to his girlfriend and wouldn't let her get off the bed—

"Look, I'm fine!" He sat on the edge of the bed, then held Xue Zhi's hand and laughed, "I'm back! Don't worry! Although there was a little trouble...but I escaped successfully! You Look at this!" He took out the bag in his arms, "This is a new medicine, there are so many!"

"This... Xiutai, this is enough for a month! Where did you get so much money?" Xuezhi knew how troublesome her illness was.I have no relatives, nothing to rely on, except this...except this boyfriend I met halfway.I didn't even marry him, I didn't even mention marriage to him, and even... At first, I didn't intend to believe how far he could do it.but now……

"I'm very good, huh?" Xiutai touched his nose proudly, and said, "Don't worry, I will take good care of you! You see, there is no need to worry about anything for the next month! Then , I will find a way to raise enough money to cure your illness completely, so we don't have to stay in this kind of place!"

"Xiutai...for me...you don't have to do so much..." Anyway, Xuezhi didn't expect to be able to really cure the disease. For her, the money for the treatment was no different from an astronomical figure.If there is only a short time left in her life, she hopes to leave some happy memories for Xiuta during this time.And yet they... apparently had nothing.

--sinner.right here.

The white knight came to the window. He looked at the scene in the house and listened to the conversations of the people inside.Don't understand, don't understand... How can a sinner have such a time?How can criminals deserve to have a pure soul shine?No, not allowed, not normal.This must be stopped.His own program was sending out false alarms and constantly popping up dangerous instructions.

White Knight, you were made to find perfect justice.

White Knight, you are perfect.

White knight, you cannot be tainted, you cannot tolerate any evil.No matter what others say, use your standard to measure, because you were born for justice, you are justice, therefore, you need to judge.

Justice is actually very simple, you just need to measure whether his crime can be covered up.To judge, to do your duty, not to be softhearted, for justice is not kindness.Therefore, you don't need mercy.

The white knight stretched out his hand, and he rushed into this small dark room. He looked at the two human beings embracing each other in horror, and began to prepare to perform his duties, to correct evil deeds, and to... maintain justice: " Nishio Shuta...do you know your crime?"

"What... what?" Xiutai hugged Xuezhi tightly, and this person came after him!I have to find a way to carry him away, I can't be caught... If I get caught, Xuezhi will...

"Really. You didn't realize it, so let me tell you." Judgment.You need to judge yourself.That's what the program said, although I felt that something was wrong, but I couldn't resist it.This absolutely perfect data, absolutely perfect body, absolutely pure white clothes, I have to maintain these.Therefore, it is impossible to disobey the instructions of the program.The white knight said, "A month ago, you sneaked into the chemical plant and stole the core parts of the energy engine. Although you escaped successfully, the engine was overloaded due to the lack of core, causing an explosion. Three innocent workers died on the spot. .”

"……what?"

"Two weeks ago, you tampered with the account books of a restaurant on Duoguchang Commercial Street, causing the owner to suffer unjust injustice, and had to submit a large amount of 'guarantee deposit' to the gangsters. In the end, he lost almost all his property, under pressure Suicide by drinking bombs."

"what are you saying?"

"Three days ago..."

"Wait a moment!"

"Three days ago, you... deceived a girl who believed in you and wanted to help you, and asked her to 'lend' you the only travel expenses." The white knight didn't stop, he continued, "Then It was the money for her car ride home at night, but because she gave it to you, she had to walk home... Then she was involved in a nearby enemy crime on the way, and was killed as a witness."

"..." Xiutai looked at the person in front of him in shock, but he couldn't say a word.

"Now, do you know your crimes?" The White Knight asked calmly, "Of course, the gangsters who forced innocent people to commit suicide, and the enemies who killed innocent girls have also been 'executed' by me. But now, it's your turn."

"You, are you going to kill... me?"

"...Do you still think that your sins can be forgiven?"

"Aren't you a professional hero?"

"I'm not."

"Hey?"

"I am the white knight, and I am justice. If you must know." Explaining this, the white knight said, "You are not allowed, not tolerated. Even though the earth has the rules of the earth, the laws of the earth, I will never allow you to exist. I will punish you, repent—won’t you run away?”

"I, I'm not... I didn't expect it to become like this." When she took over those jobs, when she did some thieves and cheats, Xiuta never thought about the consequences.He...he thought it was harmless, he thought...he didn't think anyone would die from it.

"We cannot know the future, but we can choose our actions in the present."

"sorry."

"I don't accept any apology."

"..." It was cold and cruel.Xiutai lowered her head, and said, "I understand. I'll do whatever you want, but... But these things have nothing to do with Xuezhi, so don't hurt her, okay?"

"Ishimura Yukie...she is different from you. She is innocent. I only punish crimes. You can trust me."

"That's good. Xuezhi, I..."

"No, wait a minute... what do you want to do?" Do you want to die?Want to leave me?No... this... can't... Xuezhi hugged Xiuta, she cried and shook her head, "Don't do this, please, Xiutai! Run away! You can escape, right? Leave me alone, go!"

"No, Xuezhi. I seem to have... done something unforgivable." Even if he escaped, he couldn't escape the condemnation in his heart.

"No...don't..." Xuezhi shook her head, then suddenly remembered something, she immediately stood in front of Xiutai and said to the white knight, "Kill me! It's my fault! He did all those things for me ! My medicine is very expensive, and the medical bills are also very expensive, he has no other way... Yes, I let him go! Please! I—"

"No! Xuezhi! Don't do this kind of thing! White Knight! Right? It has nothing to do with Xuezhi, she didn't do anything—?!!"

Suddenly, Xiutai was strangled by someone, and then lifted up. The white knight did not hesitate or show any mercy: "I know." He said, "Remember your sin, it cannot be excused." Yes." In the next second, there was a slightly sticky clicking sound, and Xiu Taiben's body, which was still struggling, completely stopped moving.

Xuezhi watched all this in astonishment, she slumped on the ground, unable to make a sound.And the white knight put Xiuta's body gently in front of her.He didn't say anything, and when he was about to turn around and leave, he found Obsidian standing there in shock outside the wall he broke through. It was the third time that the voice came out: "White...White Knight. You, as the perpetrator of...murder, stand still. I want to arrest you."

"Are you really going to do this? Obsidian... the hero of mankind." The white knight looked at him, still only making a calm voice, "I'm just doing justice. This man—"

"I do not care."

"what?"

"I don't care what he did in the past, no matter what, I will treat it equally." Obsidian said, and put on a fighting posture, and the black spar began to cover his body, "All Might will because of the deep The man who traps is a criminal and just sit back and watch? Do doctors not treat patients because of the crimes they committed? No. No. Not at all. Because All Might's mission is to protect others. Doctor Their mission is to heal diseases. They will not judge, they will not be harsh. I also... other heroes, just like them."

"I don't understand. Don't you want justice?"

"This is not justice!!" What do you not understand!Killing casually... Killing others casually, you don't know justice at all, you bastard! !Obsidian raised his voice, and he said, "If you kill a person, you need to be responsible for his death. That's why we won't go to trial. A person's life and death are really important, it's not you, it's not me , not any 'one person' can judge. So we have laws, we use reason to formulate rules, we will continue to improve it, and continue to make it as perfect as justice. But..."

"But it is true that it will always have imperfections. Humans can always take advantage of its loopholes. Because we are imperfect existences, if we want to avoid those... profound and wrong things, we can only try our best It's hard to think about everything, to limit your anger and impulse, some people can't do it, some people don't want to do it, but that's what makes a hero different from everyone else—"

"They will always choose the hard way."

White knight, justice is simple.

The system is issuing commands again.

White knight, you are no hero.You don't have to choose the hard way.

Not a hero...?However, people say that the savior is a hero, and people say that I am...

White knight, don't care what other people say, they are not perfect and you are.Therefore, you are correct.

I do not understand.

You don't need to understand.You just need to implement, to maintain, to find.You are born for this.No one can stop you.

"You can't stop me." The white knight said, and also moved his legs. "Obsidian. The hero of mankind...you can't stop me from upholding justice."

"It's not justice after all!!" Obsidian rushed over after saying that, and he punched the white knight, but was dodged, he hit the ground, and the crystals on his body shattered and splashed outward !

"Isn't it justice to eliminate all evil? I did nothing wrong."

"Can't you not be so stubborn?!"

"The stubborn one is you. You are just maintaining order, but the end is the same. Nishio Hideta will be caught, then tried by your so-called law, and then his crimes will still let him be killed. You...human beings , just to eliminate the irrelevant sense of guilt, and let the 'law' bear all the consequences of killing."

"No...that's not the case!"

"You are just one more step. It is superfluous. As long as you sanction, you can deter others as long as you sanction in situ. You said that the law will have omissions, it is not perfect, but because human beings are not perfect, so it It will never be perfect. Then... as long as all the flaws are erased, then you can go one step closer to perfection. How simple it is."

"Haha!" I didn't know how to refute him!I am finished!Obsidian laughed twice, his attack couldn't hit the White Knight, and he still couldn't beat him, but he couldn't let it go, "It's not superfluous, it's 'order'!! Where is the out-of-control justice? What a terrible... white knight! Look behind you, look down at your hands! Are you really... so white?"

"Of course I'm white. I'm free from blemishes, I've done nothing wrong-?"The bullet shot into the body of the white knight!But because of his special shell, the wound healed quickly, he looked at the place where the bullet was fired, Xuezhi's gaze was firm, she looked at the white knight, her eyes were full of anger and hatred, tears still hung on her face, But now that the anger may have evaporated, she fired several times in a row until there were no bullets left in the pistol!

The white knight didn't dodge, he looked at Xuezhi in shock, and suddenly appeared in front of him was the child who once attacked him with a homemade knife and called him a murderer.I don't understand, I don't understand, why...you say that?I didn't kill anyone who was innocent, I didn't...do anything wrong...anything against procedure, I should...be perfect justice, should perfect justice be hated?In the program, there is no such definition.

"Wake me up!!" Obsidian's fist finally hit him at this time, the hard ore broke through the white knight's shell with great force, leaving scars that took a while to recover, but ——

"...No one can stop me."

At that moment, it seemed that something that had never been defined came out of the white knight's heart, and he launched a counterattack.Can't, can't be stopped, can't be questioned.For the justice of all, sacrifices are allowed!The program finally started to work again, his body absorbed enough energy, and with a wave of his hand, countless bullets were fired from his skin!They flew towards Xuezhi who was still sitting there like raindrops!However! !

In the next second, the black crystal was penetrated and shattered by the white knight's special bullet made of the same material as his shell, and the fragments splashed on the white knight's body, splashed on his wound, and were swallowed by his recovering shell go in.When the small piece of black was covered by a smooth shell, the hero obsidian fell down.

He blocked all the bullets fired at Xuezhi.Like all heroes... do.

"No..." It's not like this...it shouldn't be...it's like this!The white knight made a desperate sound. He came to Obsidian and hugged him, "Why? You are...you are innocent, you..."

"That girl... is also innocent...?" Obsidian became very weak, he felt that his internal organs must have been damaged, the bullet passed through his body, and not only one shot, "Stop Bar……"

"She stopped me and became... guilty. That's what the program says, my creator's... perfect program, should... no, you... I... I killed you, this... This is not right. I...become..." no longer white, no longer 'perfect', "I have become...without the meaning of existence. This...I...can't..." exist anymore ?But, I don't even know... how to 'die'.

"I understand... Finding the meaning of life is a difficult thing, we can't live for others forever... So, I forgive you." Thought you never made your own judgment, you just... Act on what other people tell you, so you don't understand, because things in this world don't always follow the same single rule.Obsidian actually laughed, but soon he choked on blood and coughed for a long time.

"But..." He slowed down a little, and then continued, "But sometimes, there will be people who want...to stand up to protect others, and see it as their mission...You too Okay? I think...even if..." That's the justice you're looking for, that's... the justice that can make you feel perfect and at ease.

"Even in a place I can't see, you can..." You can also find it, this method, find that way.Then……

"Become the hero that people expected at the beginning... the white knight that people expected..."

Therefore, I forgive you, forgive your imperfections, forgive you for killing me, an innocent guy.So... go find new meaning, even though I've... I...

Obsidian closed his eyes, he stopped breathing, his blood stained the white knight's white coat red, and his black fragments were embedded in the smooth shell.

"But I can't forgive myself." I can't forgive, I can't allow this to happen.I am... I am no longer a defender of justice, I am no longer... the previous 'savior'.I'm supposed to stop functioning now, but I'm not programmed like that.Then maybe, until it's broken, I should go find some real answers.

Programs don't matter anymore.For some reason, when the obsidian fragments entered his body, the sound of the program became quieter.I still can't hear clearly, can't hear, and don't even care.

Maybe it's time.Maybe it's now.The White Knight thought, I...should, find new meaning.

Looking for true justice, looking for a nobleness that will not be tarnished, before that...before that...

He looked down at Obsidian's body, then stood up, his appearance changing in the process.He turned into obsidian.

——Before then, I will, instead of you, maintain the balance of order and justice.

The author has something to say:

This chapter is a bit long... I originally wanted to divide it into two chapters, but I gave up for the sake of the coherence of the plot.Maybe everyone should have noticed that the story of the White Knight and Obsidian actually happened in the past... At that time, Uncle Ou had not retired, and the Shihoubazhai Society still existed.

At the end of the story, the white knight has changed. He is no longer a person who simply maintains simple justice. He has become a person who maintains the balance between justice and order.Therefore, in the murders he caused as mentioned earlier, those he killed were all guilty and beyond the reach of the law.Although still using violence, his behavior has become more gray.

How should justice and order be chosen? When order cannot maintain justice, can people use violence?This question may spark heated discussions, and may even be unresolved.However, heroes, there is no need to consider these.At the very beginning, Tony mentioned in the email to Youxiang that weapons (violence) cannot give life.Captain America uses a shield because he is not 'fighting' but 'protecting' (MCU is because I completely let the captain deviate from this point and I abandoned the pit).What is the hero's mission? Just think about the moment when Izuku rushed out of the crowd for the first time and you will understand.He didn't want to defeat that enemy, but to save Xiaosheng.Every fight, every punch is not to punish anyone.It's because "you sent out a look for help."
