ITDO - Chapter 456 - The Greatness of a True God

“My lord, the prime minister, and the emperor’s family have arrived.”

Ise Grand Shrine was the most famous and oldest shrine in Japan. It could be called the spiritual pillar of the Japanese people. In the past, it had been closed to foreigners until after World War II.

“Everything is ready, sir!”

The prime minister and the emperor stepped forward. Both of them bowed in deep respect.

The Emperor was holding one of the three sacred weapons that had been preserved in the imperial palace of Japan, the Yasakani no Magatama.
