Reborn with Steve Stand

Chapter 201: Steve

Nice! Thanks guys! 200 Chaps!!!

"Hey... kid, are you really that strong?"

Zaraki Kenpachi looked at Fang Mo with a hint of puzzlement, "Why can't I sense any spiritual pressure from you?"

"If I throw a punch, you might die."

Seeing Zaraki Kenpachi before him, Fang Mo sighed and silently withdrew the watermelon into his storage space. It seems that he wouldn't be able to leave without a fight. "Tell me, how do you want to die?"

"Hahaha..."

Hearing Fang Mo's words, Zaraki Kenpachi wasn't angry. Instead, he burst into laughter.

"Yachiru hasn't laughed this joyfully in a long time." Seeing Kenpachi laughing, Yachiru Kusajishi also seemed delighted, "Great, it seems like she can have a good time today."

"I'm really looking forward to it."

Zaraki Kenpachi laughed heartily and ripped open his shirt, "Come on, let me see your strength. With all your talk about killing me with one punch, show me what you've got. Aim right here, and don't hold back."

"..."

Seeing this familiar scene, Fang Mo couldn't help but hold his forehead, "Such a suicidal move..."

"What's the matter? Don't want to make a move?"

At this moment, a formidable spiritual pressure surged from Zaraki Kenpachi. Perhaps it was because of this pressure, but he seemed incredibly confident. "It's not that I'm underestimating you. It's just a free hit. No big deal. I just want to see some interesting attack techniques. Otherwise, if the battle ends too quickly... that would be such a pity."

"Alright, alright."

After hearing Zaraki Kenpachi's words, Fang Mo shook his head and then made a punching gesture, "Then stand still, and don't move."

"Come!"

Zaraki Kenpachi said, laughing loudly.

"The people of the Soul Society are really weird," Fang Mo shrugged, "Every single one of you is begging me to hit you with full force. That's just ridiculous..."

As he spoke, Fang Mo took a step forward.

His right arm swung, and his fist was instantly covered by a pitch-black spherical force field.

"A serious punch!"

As Fang Mo threw the punch, the space it passed through distorted slightly. Seeing this, Zaraki Kenpachi's face changed drastically.

He had thought Fang Mo would unleash spiritual pressure and slash him with a blade.

However, until now, there was no trace of spiritual pressure from Fang Mo, but his fist was enveloped by a strange black sphere. Zaraki Kenpachi's beast-like intuition was ringing alarm bells. Every cell in his body seemed to be warning him that he absolutely couldn't take this attack head-on.

Almost reflexively, Zaraki Kenpachi's body followed its instincts.

He sharply dodged to the side, and Fang Mo's fist grazed past him. The force field then slowly contracted and disappeared.

"..."

Zaraki Kenpachi looked at Fang Mo, his eyebrows furrowed in confusion.

To be honest, Zaraki Kenpachi still didn't understand what that black sphere on Fang Mo's fist was, but his body had reacted on its own, and he felt as if he had narrowly escaped death.

At that moment, Fang Mo spoke up.

"Weak."

Fang Mo shook his fist and said, "This Kenpachi is so weak, he doesn't even dare to take a punch and still calls himself brave."

"Although I don't know what's going on, there seemed to be something off with your attack."

Kenpachi Zaraki, although he dodged the attack, showed no sign of embarrassment or loss of face. Instead, he continued to laugh, "But now it seems clear to me. You don't fight with spiritual power, do you? How interesting. I didn't expect to encounter an opponent like you. Enough talk... let's get to the fight."

After saying this, without waiting for Fang Mo to react, he immediately drew his blade and charged.

It's undeniable that Zaraki's speed is quite fast, much faster than some other characters mentioned, to the extent that one couldn't even hear the sound of his bell.

Yet, Fang Mo easily tracked his movements.

Despite seeing this, Fang Mo had no intention of dodging and simply stood still.

Zaraki didn't overthink it, but with a sinister smile, he swung his sword. However, with a "ding", his blade got stuck on Fang Mo's shoulder without even cutting the clothing.

"?"

Zaraki was a bit surprised at this.

"Is that it?" Fang Mo taunted, "Your full-strength attack couldn't break my defense. Is that all you've got? If you're only at this level, I might as well leave."

"Interesting."

Instead of getting angry, Zaraki got even more excited, "Steel-like skin similar to the Hollows? Good, this means you're tougher to cut. Let me enjoy this for a while."

Yes, as the first reckless warrior of the Seireitei, Zaraki didn't overthink. If one slash doesn't work, he'd try two, and if two slashes don't work, he'd go for three. Eventually, he believed he could turn any opponent into mincemeat.

But would Fang Mo just stand there and let him?

Of course not.

If Zaraki is a battle maniac, then isn't Fang Mo a PvP player?

So, when Zaraki swung his blade again, Fang Mo made his move.

Instead of drawing a special golden sword, Fang Mo simply drew his Broadsword, and it collided with Zaraki's Zanpakut.

A massive gust of wind swept past, instantly shattering the nearby building.

Another character, Yachiru Kusajishi, had already flash-stepped away from the battlefield, so she wasn't injured.

The next moment, Fang Mo delivered a kick to Zaraki's stomach, sending him flying. As Fang Mo raised his hand, a magma ball several stories high flew straight at Zaraki.

Even though he was kicked away, Zaraki reacted, slashing the magma ball into two halves in mid-air. Suddenly, a great force pulled him uncontrollably towards Fang Mo.

But Zaraki wasn't afraid, instead laughing loudly, holding his Zanpakut with both hands, a vast golden spiritual pressure emanating from him and gathering on the blade.

Fang Mo noticed Zaraki's state.

At this point in time, Zaraki hadn't unlocked certain powers. His two-handed sword technique was a skill granted by the Captain-Commander, and he was going all out.

"Great, you go easy on Ichigo Kurosaki but use both hands against me?"

Fang Mo couldn't help but comment, gripping his own sword, preparing to go head-to-head with Zaraki.

With his current health and the revival effect from a special amulet (similar to a totem of undying), Fang Mo believed he was unbeatable. Only by defeating Zaraki head-on could he truly win against the battle maniac.

In the next moment, the two stood face to face.

Neither Zaraki nor Fang Mo had any intention of dodging.

Zaraki Kenpachi sneered and swung his Zanpakut downward, unleashing a massive golden spiritual pressure like a tidal wave that instantly engulfed Fang Mo. Simultaneously, Fang Mo raised his sword and thrust it forward, the door-sized blade piercing straight through Zaraki Kenpachi's chest.

Afterward, they both remained motionless in that position.

Fang Mo glanced at the two hearts that had been taken from Steve and then at the serrated Zanpakut embedded in his shoulder, revealing a faint smile, "You broke my defense, impressive."

Compared to Fang Mo's minor injury, the sight of Zaraki Kenpachi was more terrifying. A door-thick purple blade was lodged in his chest. Blood was spurting out continuously. Such a wound would have been fatal to anyone else, but despite being covered in blood, Zaraki Kenpachi showed no sign of falling.

On the contrary, he sneered, eager to pull out the blade and continue the fight.

Perhaps reveling in the thrill of battle, an even more potent spiritual pressure surged from him.

"Huh? You still want to fight?"

However, Fang Mo had no desire to continue the brawl. At that moment, the Void Ring flashed with a purple light, activating Shinra Tensei, sending Zaraki Kenpachi flying.

Immediately after, Fang Mo raised his hand, and Zaraki Kenpachi abruptly halted in mid-air.

"Chibaku Tensei!"

The ground began to tremble, and the surrounding buildings, ground, and rocks all flew towards Zaraki Kenpachi, wrapping him in a massive stone sphere. The sphere then crashed to the ground, causing a deafening noise.

It felt as if even the nearby Repentance Palace was shaken by it.

After the battle, Yachiru Kusajishi, who was watching from a distance, flash-stepped over. Looking at the massive stone sphere, she commented, "Oh dear, Kenny is completely silent."

She then turned to Fang Mo and bowed, "Thank you. Kenny really enjoyed the fight..."

"It's not 'enjoyed the fight'; it's 'enjoyed getting beaten'," Fang Mo shrugged.

"You're definitely not using a Shinigami's power."

Yachiru Kusajishi didn't argue, just tilting her head curiously, "It's somewhat like Kido, but not quite. Can you tell me what power that is?"

"Which one are you referring to?" Fang Mo pointed to the Chibaku Tensei, "This one?"

"Yes."

Yachiru nodded.

"Understand pain, feel the pain; that is the power of God!" Fang Mo proclaimed, spreading his arms wide, "From this moment on, let this place feel pain!"

Yachiru blinked in confusion, looking entirely baffled.

After a while, she seemed to snap out of it but had no desire to continue the conversation. She promptly reminded him, "Ichigo seems to have run off. He went to the Repentance Palace. There's a strong spiritual pressure there."

"Damn!"

Preoccupied with showing off, Fang Mo only realized upon the reminder that Ichigo Kurosaki had disappeared. He then flash-stepped towards the Repentance Palace.

By the time Fang Mo arrived at the Repentance Palace,

Ichigo Kurosaki started fighting again.

His opponent was still a captain-level strongman, and also Ichigo's arch-enemy, the sixth captain of the Gotei 13, who is also one of the four great nobles of the Soul Society and the head of the Kuchiki family, Byakuya Kuchiki.

Of course, the current battle hasn't heated up yet.

They clashed a few times, and Byakuya didn't even use his initial release. He just used flash step and kido a couple of times.

According to the original plot,

Ichigo Kurosaki never defeated Kenpachi Zaraki. The two of them were even, with Yachiru Kusajishi taking Kenpachi away and Yoruichi Shihouin taking Ichigo away. Both went to heal their wounds.

After a long time, Ichigo woke up and suddenly felt Byakuya's spiritual pressure in the Repentance Palace. He hurried over, and another kind captain was trying to mediate, so they didn't really start fighting.

However, because of Fang Mo's appearance,

Ichigo directly skipped the fight with Kenpachi, and Byakuya appeared in the Repentance Palace out of nowhere. Due to the butterfly effect, the plot is somewhat messed up.

Given the current situation, Ichigo might not be able to defeat Byakuya.

But Ichigo is the protagonist, and as we all know, protagonists in shounen anime always come through, so Fang Mo is not worried about him.

Rather than worrying about him,

Fang Mo is more concerned about Yoruichi's whereabouts.

After all, as mentioned before, if Left Field Komamura, the big Shiba Inu, can be tamed, maybe Yoruichi, the little black cat, can be tamed too. Wouldn't it be delightful to pet her?

Therefore, Fang Mo did not show up immediately.

Instead, he hid quietly and began observing his surroundings through a small map's bio-radar.

This is the Repentance Palace, built with a lot of materials like Sekkiseki, so besides guards and prisoners, few people come here. Not only people, but even animals and insects are rare.

That's why the bio-radar detected very few entities.

Soon, he saw a chibi black cat icon on the small map.

"Oh, she's really nearby."

Seeing the black cat icon on the small map, Fang Mo's eyes lit up. It seems that Yoruichi is indeed following Ichigo, ready to save him if he's in danger.

Speaking of Ichigo,

The battle below began to escalate.

"Do you know the difference between us?" Byakuya slowly raised his Zanpakuto. "It's the rank. Next, I will let you witness the gap between us."

"Scatter, Senbonzakura."

After saying that, Byakuya's Zanpakuto turned into countless petals.

"...What?"

Ichigo was a bit surprised. Clearly, these petals were Byakuya's initial release, but... how should he defend against it?

As Ichigo was stunned, countless petals flew towards him. These petals, which look delicate, are actually numerous sharp blades. This is the true nature of Senbonzakura, turning a sword into countless petal-like blades to attack the enemy.

At that moment, a figure suddenly appeared behind Ichigo, pulling him out of the range of Senbonzakura's attack.

"...Is it you?"

Byakuya looked at the sudden appearance of this person with slight surprise, "The former head of the Stealth Force, who betrayed the Soul Society a hundred years ago... Yoruichi from the Shihouin family?"

"Nani?"

Ichigo was also confused. He turned to look at this unfamiliar woman. He didn't recognize her, but the name Byakuya mentioned... Yoruichi from the Shihouin family?

Is this woman Mr. Yoruichi? What the heck?

But at this moment, not only Ichigo was confused.

In fact, Fang Mo, not far away, was also dumbfounded because just now, a system prompt sounded in his mind.
