Chapter 283

["When Sadako was seven years old, Yamamura Shizuko gave birth to a baby boy. Sadako adored her little brother, but tragically, he passed away from illness at only four months old. After his death, Shizuko's mental state deteriorated significantly.

At the age of eight, Sadako's father, Ikuma Heihachiro, faced growing skepticism regarding his research. During a public demonstration of psychic abilities, Shizuko, overwhelmed by the expectations of the audience—who all hoped to see her fail—succumbed to psychological pressure and was unable to perform.

As a result, she and Ikuma were labeled frauds and ostracized by the academic community. This led to their divorce.

In an attempt to reclaim his credibility, Ikuma retreated into the mountains for training but contracted tuberculosis and was eventually hospitalized. Meanwhile, Shizuko fell into severe depression.

Upon returning to Ōshima with Sadako, she ultimately threw herself into the volcanic crater of Mount Mihara, committing suicide.

Following her mother's death, Sadako remained in her hometown and was raised by Shizuko's cousin, Yamamura Kyo."]

["After graduating high school at eighteen, Sadako left Ōshima for Tokyo. She joined the 'Flying Theater Troupe' as a trainee and met Toyama Hiroshi, whom she later fell in love with.

Sadako became widely known for her psychic abilities after witnessing an unplugged television displaying images."]

["According to our investigations, Sadako had demonstrated supernatural abilities even earlier.

At the age of nine, she accurately predicted an eruption of Mount Mihara. When she told Yamamura Kyo, he dismissed it as a childish joke.

However, when the volcano actually erupted, he realized that Sadako, like her mother, possessed the ability to foresee the future."]

["Fearing that Sadako would suffer the same fate as her mother, Yamamura Kyo instructed her to conceal her abilities."]

["This part of her history was uncovered in the diary left behind by Yamamura Kyo, who had passed away years ago."]

["In the summer of her nineteenth year, Sadako vanished from the theater troupe and traveled to Minami-Hakone Sanatorium to care for her terminally ill father, who was dying of tuberculosis.

During this time, she was assaulted by Dr. Nagao Jotaro, a physician at the sanatorium who was infected with the smallpox virus. He was Japan's last known smallpox patient."]

["After the assault, Nagao discovered that Sadako had Androgen Insensitivity Syndrome, meaning that despite her feminine appearance, she was biologically male."]

["Upon realizing that her secret had been exposed, Sadako felt deep shame. Her nineteen years of hardship and suffering culminated in complete despair.

Using her psychic abilities, she took control of Nagao's mind. Driven by fear and rage, he killed her and disposed of her body in a nearby well.

Not only did he end her life, but through sexual contact, he also transmitted the smallpox virus to her."]

["Trapped within the well, Sadako, using her supernatural powers, fused her genetic material with the smallpox virus, creating the new 'RING Virus.'

She then imprinted both the virus and her memories into a camcorder placed in a cabin built above the well.

A young boy, who was recording a television program at the time, inadvertently captured the cursed footage on a videotape."]

["Anyone who watched the tape would become infected with the RING Virus.

The virus, forming a ring-shaped structure, attacked the victim's heart, creating sarcomas in the coronary arteries.

Seven days later, the tumors would block the arteries, triggering a fatal heart attack."]

["This is the tragic past of Yamamura Sadako. She was truly a pitiful person in life."]

At this point, many people couldn't help but reflect on her story.

Nami: "Wow… when you look at it this way, Sadako's life was incredibly tragic. So much misfortune at such a young age."

Loki: "Her parents were complete fools—using their psychic powers for public performances without considering the consequences.

Did they never worry about being kidnapped for experimentation?"

Bruce Wayne: "Absolutely.

In our country, if someone openly showcased supernatural abilities, they'd be taken away and studied immediately."

Dan Moroboshi: "Exactly.

If Sadako's parents had kept her abilities a secret from the start, perhaps none of these tragedies would have happened.

Sadako might never have become the vengeful spirit she is now."

Doctor Strange: "What surprises me the most is that Sadako was intersex.

That's an extremely rare condition!"

Naruto: "Wait, so she looked like a woman… but was actually a man?"

Doctor Strange: "Yes, it's a real phenomenon—though very rare.

There are even cases where someone appears male but is biologically female.

It's a complex biological condition and difficult to explain."

Jiraiya: "Oh no… does that mean I might have met a woman who was actually a man?!"

Sanji: "So… like an okama?!"

Jiraiya and Sanji, both notorious lovers of beautiful women, shuddered at the thought.

The mere idea of such a situation made their stomachs churn.

Natasha Romanoff: "Stark, what about you?"

Tony Stark: "Don't even joke about that!

I refuse to think about it!"

Stark's face darkened.

He prided himself on his vast experience with women and refused to believe he had ever encountered such a scenario.

Just imagining it was unbearable.

Tony Stark: "Wait a minute!

That explains why the cursed virus can cause ovulating women to become pregnant!

Since Sadako was intersex, she likely had sperm-producing cells in her body!

That's how she was able to create such a virus!"

Dan: "That sounds absolutely absurd."

Shizuka: "Sadako was truly unfortunate… she was even assaulted before she died."

Suneo: "But then why didn't she take revenge on that Nagao guy?

Why curse random people instead?"

Asmita: "Ghosts don't retain much rationality.

After they kill, they are consumed by their own resentment, gradually losing self-awareness.

Sadako is an exceptionally powerful vengeful spirit—one of the rare few that still retain some intelligence.

But even she operates mostly on instinct."

Aiakos: "Hmph. Spirits like these aren't frightening at all.

If you suppress them before they awaken, they will be forced to remember fear instead—eventually becoming obedient servants.

I've enslaved countless human souls using this method."

Thanatos: "Heh. Indeed.

Pathetic wraiths like this should be mere playthings.

If it were me, I wouldn't even give them the chance to act up—they would exist only to serve me."

Manigault: "You two are even worse than the ghosts!

Stop treating human souls like playthings!"

Diana: "You're nothing but disgusting, vile creatures!"

Aiakos: "Tch. Whatever."

Orochimaru: "Fascinating… The concept of soul manipulation is quite intriguing.

Perhaps I should conduct some research into creating spirits like Sadako.

That could be… entertaining."
