Nanana’s Buried Treasure Volume 8 Chapter 6.6

Everything Sansa Kurosu speaks is the truth, and even things that come out of her mouth that she doesn’t even believe herself, seem to be true. That’s how powerful and persuasive Sansa Kurosu’s words are. So the first thing he needs to do is make her shut her mouth. He needs to cut off the source of the strong poison that is severely impeding his thinking. And so I thought about how to resolve this situation.

In front of me was Sansa, pointing the gun towards me. Behind me was a giant white tiger pushing Ikusaba-san down. And nearby was Kira Kanna, who had jumped up.

To be honest, there was no chance of winning if I fought fairly.

That’s why Sansa was the only one I could target.

As she had said earlier, she wasn’t really good at rough work. Out of the three, she was the only one I could definitely beat in a fight. And above all, what would come out of the gun pointed at me were rubber bullets. The worst that could happen would only be my bones breaking or shattering. I’d just have to bear it.

But anyway, I couldn’t hit a woman in any case or situation. So, even if Sansa-san had an extremely nasty personality, I couldn’t hit her.  So what I need to do is apprehend her. Negotiations will have to start from there.

I’m not confident that everything will go well from there, but I have no intention of living up.

This is what my gamble will be.

I’ll definitely get through this and see Nanana’s smile.

「So, shall we do it?」

「Come on, brat. I’ll play with you.」

Sansa-san’s eyes widen at the sudden voice. It was that Sansa-san. She slowly looks up, glaring at the early morning sky that was just beginning to dawn.

Intrigued, I also look up and my expression stiffens. It was because there was a man descending from the sky.

Yes, he was literally walking through the air, slowly descending towards me with steps that made it seem as if he was descending an invisible staircase.

The man in a suit had a grumpy expression on his face. A face that I recognize.

「Why are you here Ikkaku?」

This was the man I saw on my date with Yukihime-san… or rather when we went to the Tanabata festival together. He is the current leader of the GREAT 7 and the head of this island, Ikkaku Shunju.

Even more than all of that, the staff he was holding in his hand looked familiar.

「The <<wizard’s staff>>!」

It is the strongest Nanana collection that once tormented me.

And then Shunju Ikkaku descended into the hanging garden and gave an order to Sansa Kurosu.

「Put your guns away Sansa. We cannot tolerate this kind of robbery.」

「Ha, you’re following Nanana’s will just like Shiki.」

Nanana’s… will?

「That has nothing to do with this. It’s the rules that we, the GREAT 7 made.」

「Us? …!」

Looking at him, Sansa-san freezes.

At the edge of the hanging gard, a boy of about middle school age… I mean, a baby-faced man, almost like an angel, is standing there. This is one of the GREAT 7, Koma Mutsumi.

Mutsumi-san stares at Sansa-san with very sad eyes. Sansa-san is very visibly shaken.

STARE

「Well, there’s a reason for this.」

STARE

「Don’t say that, I have my own circumstances….」

STARE

「I mean, there’s no need to say that!」

While Mutsumi-san just stares without saying a word, Sansa-san seems to read his thoughts… or rather, because she is reading them, she just acts like they are spoken words. It’s a strange sight to me. Or rather, I’m just surprised at how impatient Sansa-san seems.

Pwiii

Then Mutsumi-san turns away with a sulky expression.

「Yes, I got carried away! I’m sorry! I’m sorry! Don’t be mad, Koma! It’s my fault!」

Then Sansa-san throws away the gun she was pointing at me and starts crying. I don’t understand. Looking at Sansa-san clinging to Mutsumi-san, Shunju Ikkaku holds up his <<wizard’s wand>> and mutters something. Then his voice resonates.

「To everyone currently here in Seven’s Land. My name is Shunju Ikkaku. I am the head of the governing board. In my name, I command you to cease all fighting. I repeat, cease all fighting immediately.」

The words were spoken as if to an audience as a speech. However, I immediately realized that they were not only being spoken to the people present. The words that were being spoken right now echoed in his head. And then silence fell.

The gunfire that had been heard in the distance until just a moment ago suddenly stopped. The sounds of fighting also ceased.

I could guess that this was the same telepathy that Nishii had done earlier, speaking directly to people’s minds. These words were spoken to everyone in Seven’s land. The thing that made this possible was undoubtedly the <<wizard’s wand>> held by Shunju Ikkaku. Because of its incredibly powerful ability to cause anything the user desires to happen, it seems possible to reproduce the same, or even greater abilities, as the other items in the Nanana collection.

<<Donald Van Zams’ Wand>> was also undoubtedly a rare item in the Nanana collection.

**************************************

In room 202 of Happiness Dorm, Nanana mutters as she watches the sunrise outside the window.

「I wonder how the <<game>> went?」

The sunrise was just like any other. But for some reason, to Nanana, it looked different than usual. The sun was somehow different from the sunrises she had been watching for the past nine years in this room.

When something changes inside you, the world looks different than it did before.

「Munya, munya… fwaaaaaaahhhh.」

Hoshino yawns as he turns in that direction. D’ark Hoshino, who had been sleeping in Juugo’s bed, had just woken up with a loud yawn.

Nanana gave him her usual smile.

「Good morning, D’ark-chan.」
