Playing with other Supernaturals

Chapter 676 VS Surtr

Yoruichi and Kuroka were shocked at the depth of what’d really happened to Kisuke, as he’d only described it in summary before, “That mystery voice was such an important thing, why did you leave it out before, nya?”

“I can only speak about it thanks to this barrier,” replied Kisuke. It was then that Kisuke noticed that the water in the small pond was slowly being depleted, “Hmm?”

“What’s wrong?” asked Yoruichi, “Did you realize something?”

Kisuke stood up and said, “Yep. If my guesses are correct, then I might be able to strike a deal with her. Let’s get out of this place for now. I want to try something.” He then went towards the exit and directly jumped into the lava.

Yoruichi and Kuroka looked at each other before following him.

Once they resurfaced, the naked Kisuke then asked Yoruichi, “Please try entering that place again and check the state of the barrier.”

Yoruichi nodded and dived back. After some time, she returned and said, “When I returned, the barrier was down, but a few seconds after I entered, it went back up.”

Kisuke smiled widely with that confirmation, “Great. Now things have become a lot easier. Let’s go back and prepare. I’ll use the remaining three weeks for training.”

Kisuke concluded that the strange water in the small pond is the thing powering the barrier and estimated that he still had more than 23 hours left, ‘It’s not much but thanks to that, a lot of possibilities have just opened up. I can just make all the parts I need and assemble them within that barrier.’

While thinking of things he can finally do, Kisuke inwardly thanked the mysterious being, but also thought of her as being very naive. He didn’t know if it was because of her being naturally born in a transcendent state, similar to Ophis, or something else, but it was very obvious for him that she isn’t really thinking of what Chaos could really do.

‘Delay the inevitable? Even if I did so, there’s no saying that Chaos would act as she predicted. Just from how things are going, I think the system of Heaven is actually a nuisance to him,’ With certain possibilities in mind, Kisuke started to plot his plans, ‘The goal of covering all of my bases against the two of them… I guess I should prepare a world invasion?’

Yoruichi and Kuroka saw that Kisuke was making a very wide grin and it became obvious to them that he’s plotting something bad. Regardless of their curiosity, however, they couldn’t ask anything regarding these mysterious beings as they’d just garner unwanted attention.

The three week wait came to an end and both Yoruichi and Kuroka prepared to face the Surtr that was about to spawn anytime now. Within the dome training ground, Yoruichi approached Kisuke who’s currently exercising with his top off, and offered him a towel, “We’ll certainly meet the Familia who’s supposed to be dealing with the Surtr this time around, the Astarte Familia. How should we deal with them?”

Kisuke let out a large breath and grabbed the towel, drying the sweat that had already accumulated, “I don’t really know anyone in Dizara Region, so I’ll leave it to you on how to deal with them. If you think they fit, they could also become our first customers. Of course, anyone from the Aruna Familia is banned.”

Thanks to the hunting he did in the area, Kisuke was now fully capable of controlling his body, without manually strengthening it, of course. Even then, his current body proved to be strong enough to just bulldoze almost any monsters that he came across.

The next goal was to be able to use techniques and use proper body strengthening. But since Kisuke had already figured out how his new energy system worked, he just had to readjust the way he usually did things. Though a few implosions of flesh and bones would certainly happen just testing things out.

“Well, that’s obviously the case from the start. However, if I deemed those from the Astarte Familia trustworthy enough, can we leave the teleportation circle on the 9th floor to them?”

Kisuke looked at her and smiled, “It seems that you like them a lot. It’s fine. This will become something indispensable for them, so they’ll surely take care of it.”

Yoruichi then started walking towards Kuroka, who was already waiting for her while saying, “We’ll go first.”

Recalling something, Kisuke asked, “By the way, which of you are going to take care of the horns? Although my senses are still a mess, I can still tell that the 47th floor is currently gathering an enormous amount of Magic Power and Spiritual Power. Just from the scale, I don’t think it’ll be easy to cut off the horns without killing it.”

Yoruichi turned towards him and replied with a grin of confidence, “I’ll finish it off in two strikes.”

Kisuke’s eyes widened slightly and asked, “You’re going to use Byakko? You’re only allowed to use your Bankai, right? Are you going to be fine?”

“Yep. This will be a good chance to finally test it out after all those long years of training. Don’t worry though, I’ll immediately retreat if my arm falls off.”

It was Kuroka’s turn to be shocked, “Hey! What are you going to do, nyaa!?”

However, Yoruichi just wrapped her arms around her shoulders and said, “You’ll know later~ I’ll depend on you as my backup.”

Kuroka scrunched her face and replied, “It would really be helpful if you were to tell me everything you’re about to do so that I can prepare, nyaa… You guys love surprises too much, nyaa!”

Yoruichi and Kuroka arrived on the 47th floor where they only had to wait for a few minutes before the Dungeon started shaking as a horned giant, wielding a greatsword matching its size, emerged from the lake of lava with a deafening howl.

Yoruichi and Kuroka immediately jumped out of the way of the falling lava that was scattered from Surtr’s appearance. Yoruichi then closely held her Zanpakuto before saying, “Kuroka, after the first strike, there’s a chance it will mutate. I want you to hold it off until I can prepare the second strike.”

“Got it,” Kuroka nodded as the world’s Ki congealed around her and her own Ki melded with it, causing it to flare up. A few seconds later, Kuroka successfully unleashed the full capabilities of her Senjutsu, attuning herself to the world’s life force.

With her nine tails covered with black flames, Kuroka took out her Sacred Gear and waited for Yoruichi to make her move.

Thanks to Kuroka’s Ki, Surtr’s attention was fully focused on her and Yoruichi was able to place herself a few meters from the top of the Surtr’s head without its notice.

It was then that Yoruichi finally released her repressed Reiatsu-Ki, delivering a shockwave that immediately pushed the giant down.

Confused, the Surtr hurriedly looked up and saw the tanned woman holding her kodachi-type Zanpakuto while muttering, “Bankai… Kyo no Kougou, Byakko (Void Empress Byakko)!”
