Volume 7 Fate and Kof Chapter 033 Assembly
The reason why Emiya dared to say this was mainly because he already had experience.
Every time he travels through time, it is either before the plot begins or just as the plot begins. The exceptions are One Piece and Demon Slayer.
When traveling back in time to One Piece, it was still several months before Luffy set out to sea.
When he entered Demon Slayer, Tanjiro Kamado's entire family had died, and he trained under Urokodaki Sakonji for more than a year before joining the trial of the Demon Slayer Corps.
Apart from these two, the others are pretty much the same.
So Shirou guessed that this time would be no exception, and in fact he was not wrong.
A few days later, Mai Shiranui found Emiya and told him that the 1996 KOF tournament had begun. Just an hour ago, someone sent her an invitation to the KOF tournament.
Emiya wasn't surprised at all.
"So, have you prepared the candidates to join the team?" Mai Shiranui asked curiously.
Emiya nodded, "Everything is ready."
"Who is the last person besides Cu Chulainn and you?"
"Hercules."
"???!" Mai Shiranui couldn't help but reveal an expression that shocked my mother for thirty years, "Who were you talking about? Hercules? That Hercules."
"Yes, it's Zeus' son, Hercules." Emiya nodded.
"This is a bit too much." Even though Mai Shiranui had a good temper, she couldn't help but complain, "It's outrageous enough that your teammate is the demigod Cu Chulainn, the Son of Light, and this time a Hercules has come!"
She couldn't help but roll her eyes. "Since he's Hercules, he should go to the Battle of Gods. Isn't it bullying for a god to come to the KOF tournament?"
Emiya smiled and comforted him, "Don't worry, it's not as scary as you think. Hercules did not appear as a god, but as a heroic spirit."
"Heroic spirit?" Mai Shiranui looked confused.
Emiya then explained to her what a Heroic Spirit was, and then he went on to explain, "After Hercules appeared in the world as a Heroic Spirit, he gained a physical body. Of course, it is an ordinary physical body, not a body of demigod blood. So Hercules' strength is now several levels lower than before, which is not too unfair."
Mai Shiranui suddenly realized, "So that's what's going on."
"That's right." Emiya nodded.
Although that is true, Emiya feels that with Hercules' strength, it should not be a problem to beat other teams in the KOF tournament.
The only two who are a bit troublesome are Kyo Kusanagi and Iori Yagami, but they are just a bit troublesome.
Other than that, everyone else is nothing.
Of course, if Asamiya Athena's master Zhen Gensai takes it seriously, he should be able to cause trouble for Hercules, and may even be stronger than Kusanagi Kyo and Yagami Iori.
However, he is too old and is used to the gaming world. He participates in KOF competitions mostly to train his own disciples and has never taken other people seriously in ring competitions.
Therefore, Emiya didn't think that Zhen Yuansai would seriously fight Hercules.
Looking at all the masters in 1996, the only opponent who could make Hercules feel threatened was probably Storm Goenitz.
In the next few days, the promotion of the KOF competition was in full swing.
This competition is different from the previous ones. It is no longer a private competition, but a world-class fighting competition. In addition to the teams that can directly enter the main selection in previous years, the KOF competition also conducts overseas shopping.
Anyone who has confidence in themselves can form a team to participate in the preliminaries. As long as they can make it out of the preliminaries, they will be qualified to participate in the official competition.
For someone like Emiya, if he wants to participate in the official competition, he must first pass the preliminaries.
So he had to sign up first.
Registration locations are available all over the world, including in Tokyo.
After Emiya left the Shiranui Dojo, he quickly found the location and reported his name and the name of his team.
The staff gave Emiya a certificate of participation from the Tokyo district and told Emiya that the preliminaries would be held one day later, and if he did not arrive on time, he would be disqualified.
Emiya nodded, and after leaving the registration point, he took out his mobile phone and logged into the chat group @ing everyone, telling them that registration had started and whether they had time to come over .
Loki: "Of course no problem, come and pick us up."
Hephaestus: "No problem either."
Shizuka Hiratsuka: "I need to take two days off from school. Please go to Orario first and come back to pick me up."
Furinji Hayato: "I don't have any problem on my end either."
Hercules: "I'm always available."
Seeing that everyone had no problems, Emiya went to Orario first and arrived at Loki's base, the Dusk Mansion.
"Hey, they're here." Loki smiled and greeted Emiya after seeing him. He patted the seat next to him and said, "Sit here and wait for a while. I've sent someone to call them."
Emiya nodded and sat next to Loki and waited for a while.
The first to arrive were Livilia and Ais.
"Long time no see, Livilia, Ais." Emiya was the first to greet.
Livilia nodded, "It's been a long time indeed."
Ais looked at Emiya and nodded slightly as a greeting. Emiya didn't take it seriously, after all, that was Ais's personality.
After a while, Finn finally came over, "Sorry, I'm late."
Emiya said, "It's okay. We're not in a rush anyway. But will you be okay?"
Finn didn't understand.
Emiya simply called out the names, "The captain and vice-captain are gone, is the Loki family really okay?"
Finn shook his finger in annoyance. "To be honest, I am also worried about this. But if it is only for a short time, it should be fine. After all, Loki is here."
Loki opened his eyes wide, "What nonsense are you talking about? Of course I will go with you. After all, I can see the contestants from all the worlds gather together. How could I miss this competition? And as the leader of Loki's clan, of course I have to cheer for my members."
Finn was stunned. "I haven't heard of this. If you leave too..."
If the main god, leader, deputy leader, and ace Ais of the Loki clan all leave, is the Loki clan really okay?
He couldn't help but worry deeply about the members of his clan.
Emiya turned to look at Loki, "Or, you shouldn't go."
"Huh?" Loki opened his eyes wide. "You are so heartless. You actually want to abandon me. It's impossible. It's absolutely impossible. I will not separate from Ai Si Tan."
As she spoke, she hugged Ai Si tightly.
Aisi suddenly felt like she was about to suffocate. Finally, she couldn't help it and hit Loki's head hard with her knife, leaving a big bump.
But Loki would never let go.
In the end, a group of people decided to go to the King of Fighters world to participate in KOF. As for the Loki clan, although the main god, the leader, the deputy leader, and the ace no longer cared.
But Loki was confident that nothing would happen. After all, this was the clan she founded... probably.
So a group of people came to the Hephaestus clan.
Hephaestus, Tsubaki, Tomioka Giyuu, and Gyoumei Hiramashi have been waiting for a long time.
"Hey, Hephaestus, are you going too?" Loki came up with a smile.
Hephaestus looked at Loki, "It seems that you are planning to go as well."
"Of course, how can such a grand event be without me, Loki."
"I feel a little uneasy now." Hephaestus did not forget what kind of god Loki was.
Loki smiled and comforted her: "Don't worry, I'm different from before. I won't cause any big trouble. Don't worry about that."
"Really?" Hephaestus glanced at her. Although Loki said so, Hephaestus was still a little worried and could only remind Emiya.
"If Loki causes any trouble, I hope you can stop her."
Emiya said helplessly: " Do you think I can stop Loki if he really causes trouble?"
Hephaestus thought so too and couldn't help but sigh deeply.
Loki was dissatisfied, "At least give me more trust."
Hephaestus nodded perfunctorily, "Yes, yes, I will give you some trust."
Loki: ...
After Emiya picked up Loki's team and Hephaestus' team, he brought a group of people to Liangshanpo, and at this time the Liangshanpo team was already ready.
Emiya didn't waste any time and after a few polite words, he took everyone to the One Piece world and picked up Robin.
Then he went to the comprehensive world and borrowed Shizuka Hiratsuka.
In this way, four of the five teams are complete .
The last group is Emiya's Heroic Spirit Team.
However, Emiya did not take them to the Type-Moon World. After all, the Type-Moon World is no longer the Age of Gods. God knows what kind of trouble would arise if Emiya took two gods there.
If Alaya and Gaia are alarmed, it will be troublesome.
So Emiya first sent these four teams to the King of Fighters world and took them to register.
After all, Emiya's Heroic Spirit Team has already been registered.
After Team Loki, Team Hephaestus, Team Liangshanpo, and Team Nen had all registered, Emiya brought everyone to the Shiranui Dojo, where they stayed temporarily.
After all, Shiranui Dojo is still a dojo with plenty of rooms, so it is not a problem to accommodate more than a dozen people.
After Emiya handed this group of people over to Mai Shiranui, he went to the Type-Moon World and picked up Hercules, Cu Chulainn, and Illya.
So the five teams gathered together.
In order to arrange food for this group of people, Emiya even went to Kikushiro's downstairs and borrowed Erina Nakiri and Hisako Arato to prepare a sumptuous dinner for this group of people.
