Reborn with Steve Stand

Chapter 436: Chapter 433: To use Breath of Death to an Immortal

Under the series of maneuvers by Fang Mo, Ulquiorra was ultimately outwitted and crippled.

Of course, there was no helping it. Even if Ulquiorra resisted, it was futile. The sheer power was there for all to see, as he was directly sealed into the End Sword.

In short, after dealing with Ulquiorra,

Fang Mo quickly flew straight to the center of Karakura Town.

At this moment, in the four corners of the city, spatial transfer columns have been placed, a technique developed by the Technology Development Bureau of the Soul Society, moving the real Karakura Town to the outskirts of the Soul Society. The current Karakura Town in the living world is just an empty shell.

In simple terms, the citizens here have all been tactically relocated.

After arriving near the center of Karakura Town,

Fang Mo slightly raised his head to observe the surroundings.

At the moment, the battle seems to have entered an intense phase.

The ground is littered with a massive number of people, to the point where it feels overwhelming to save them. This includes not just those from the Soul Society but even one from Hueco Mundo, which was indeed beyond Fang Mo's expectations.

However, after some thought, Fang Mo considered that this might be the butterfly effect caused by him.

Originally, in the source material, Aizen's attack on the living world brought the top three Espadas: Starrk, Baraggan, and Halibel, along with his two subordinates Gin Ichimaru and Kaname Tosen, and Wonderweiss, who was specifically targeted at Genryusai Shigekuni Yamamoto.

But due to Fang Mo's influence,

The battle group now shows significant deviations.

Firstly, Espada No. 1 Coyote Starrk has been taken away by Fang Mo, and Wonderweiss is gone, so Aizen's side has effectively lost two trump cards.

However, to be honest, the Gotei 13 has suffered more.

Because Fang Mo has crippled old man Yamamoto, and according to what Yoruichi said before, although the old man's life was saved, his legs couldn't be, and he is currently paralyzed in bed.

Orihime Inoue had the ability to heal him.

But the problem is she had already been captured by Aizen's forces and taken to Hueco Mundo.

Without the Captain-Commander's threat, to be honest, even if the rest of the Gotei 13 joined forces, they probably wouldn't be a match for Aizen alone, given how overpowered the ability of Kyoka Suigetsu is.

And that's pretty much the situation now.

Almost all the lieutenants, as well as the members of the Visored, have fallen to the ground.

As for the captains, Shunsui Kyoraku, Jushiro Ukitake, Komamura Sajin, and Soi Fon are still holding on, but Toshiro Hitsugaya has already fallen.

Furthermore, Espada No. 3, Tier Harribel, has also fallen.

And he fell right beside Tōshirō Hitsugaya.

It's worth mentioning that from the Gotei 13, Zaraki Kenpachi, Byakuya Kuchiki, Mayuri Kurotsuchi, and Retsu Unohana did not make an appearance.

Fang Mo recalled that, in the original story, they seemed to have gone to support Hueco Mundo, and then fell into Aizen's trap, getting temporarily trapped in Hueco Mundo or something of that sort. But now, it wasn't clear what exactly happened; they indeed did not show up, and it was unknown what they were up to.

"So, is nobody going to explain this to me?"

Fang Mo looked around and felt that everyone seemed to be enjoying their battles, and nobody noticed his arrival.

Of course, this was not Fang Mo's fault, since he essentially had no spiritual pressure, and most Shinigami relied on spiritual pressure to fight, so it was normal that nobody noticed him.

Fang Mo looked around and casually picked up a person from the ground and stabbed him with a knife.

Of course, the weapon he used was the Healing Salvation Sword, so after one strike, the white-haired robust man immediately woke up.

"Are you... Fang Mo?"

After waking up, Kensei Muguruma immediately noticed Fang Mo. The two had met before, and later Kisuke Urahara had formally introduced them, so Kensei Muguruma recognized him right away: "Have you returned from Hueco Mundo? Did they bring back that girl named Orihime Inoue?"

"You sure know a lot."

Seeing this, Fang Mo also smiled: "You, with your already impressive knowledge and the original Rokujuuro... Ah, congratulations on your evolution; you're now Juichiro Kujou."

"Speak properly to me!"

Kensei Muguruma, obviously having a temper, shouted: "Quickly tell me, has that girl named Orihime Inoue come back? What about the support troops from the Soul Society that went to Hueco Mundo?"

"Hm?"

After hearing Kensei Muguruma's words, Fang Mo also realized: "So, Kenpachi and the others did go to Hueco Mundo, huh?"

"You didn't see them?"

Kensei Muguruma's heart sank upon hearing this: "So, Orihime Inoue hasn't returned, has she? Damn... Without her, Old Man Yamamoto can't fight, can he?"

"Oh, so that was your plan."

Fang Mo, having heard this, reacted: "It seems that the Soul Society does have some intelligence after all, knowing to prioritize protecting their healer in a group fight... However, it's regrettable that the Black Cavity is already blown up, and they probably won't be able to return anytime soon."

"Damn it..." Kensei Muguruma gritted his teeth upon hearing this.

While the two were talking, a scream suddenly came from mid-air.

Fang Mo looked up and saw Soi Fon falling from the sky, landing right in front of him.

She was just fighting against Espada No.2, Baraggan Louisenbairn, who had already returned to his Resurrección form, the Great Skull Emperor. He has a special move called "Breath of Death," which can decay everything into dust.

Soi Fon was accidentally exposed to it and fell straight to the ground.

"Soi Fon!"

Upon seeing this, Yoruichi shouted worriedly at Soi Fon, immediately trying to rescue her. However, Baraggan swung his axe directly at her: "Do you still have the mind to worry about others while fighting me?"

"Damn it..."

After being interrupted by Baraggan, Yoruichi became a bit anxious. However, she quickly noticed the two people nearby: "Hmm... Fang Mo!?"

"Didn't expect that, did you? I'm back!"

Fang Mo greeted Yoruichi cheerfully.

"Now's not the time for greetings!" Yoruichi quickly dodged Baraggan's giant axe, then yelled at Fang Mo: "Save Soi Fon!"

"Is there any benefit for me?"

Fang Mo asked: "Like, you're going to pick cotton completely naked as the Black Cat Warrior, and then let me take a photo or something..."

"Are you wanting to take a photo of the cotton or me?!"

Yoruichi couldn't help but yell back, but upon seeing Soi Fon's pained expression, she softened: "Just save her! I'll agree to anything!"

"Wuhu~~"

Fang Mo was also delighted to hear this, then went forward and cut off Soi Fon's left arm.

It has to be said, Baraggan's ability is indeed quite unfair. Once contaminated, the person would rapidly decay into dust, just like Soi Fon's severed arm, which turned into a skeleton in the blink of an eye, and then even the bones quickly turned into dust and disappeared.

"What a pity, that hand was quite beautiful."

Upon seeing this, Fang Mo also sighed, "The artisan expressed discomfort and gave a thumbs down."

"I absolutely will not allow you to take a photo of Lord Yoruichi!" Soi Fon, enduring the pain, got up from the ground and immediately said to Fang Mo, "You deceitful villain, don't think you'll succeed!"

"After it's done, I'll share a copy of the photo with you."

Fang Mo was not angry, instead, he spoke cheerfully.

"..."

Soi Fon was stunned, then quickly pursed her lips and fell silent. After a long while, she stuttered, "Now... Now is not the time to discuss this, let's deal with the enemy first!"

"Hahaha, hilarious."

Seeing Soi Fon's current state, Fang Mo immediately laughed, "You rest for now, just help me think about the angle for the photo later, I'll take care of this guy."

After saying that, Fang Mo instantly teleported in front of Baraggan, throwing a punch.

"Be careful! Don't touch him!"

Yoruichi immediately shouted upon seeing this.

However, it was too late, Fang Mo's punch pierced through the opponent's chest, accompanied by the sound of breaking bones, the opponent's body was instantly left with a huge hole.

But at the same time.

The dark breath of death began to spread over Fang Mo's body.

"This is bad!"

Seeing this scene, Soi Fon immediately became worried, "This guy might..."

"Hmph, utterly naive."

Despite suffering heavy damage, Baraggan couldn't help but laugh at the scene: "Everything in the world ultimately cannot escape death, be it humans or the Shinigamis. There's nothing that can last forever. This is the power of aging that I control, even the enemy that Aizen is extremely wary of is but a speck of dust before me..."

However, before he could finish speaking, Fang Mo's voice suddenly interrupted: "Oh, is that so?"

"...What?!"

Baraggan seemed to be stunned as well.

And under Baraggan's incredulous gaze, Fang Mo slowly withdrew his fist: "Old man, your ability doesn't seem to work very well."

At this moment, Fang Mo was entirely enveloped by the breath of death.

His body was burning with a kind of black smoke-like flame, which made him look somewhat terrifying. However, this death breath, capable of decaying everything, couldn't inflict even the slightest harm on Fang Mo. It quietly burned on him.

"Presuming to use a minor skill against a master."

Fang Mo said with a smile: "To actually dream of using the power of aging to kill an immortal being, do you really know how long I have lived?"

"You..."

Baraggan asked subconsciously, "How long?"

"When I was born, the universe was just beginning, and that singularity burst forth an endless dazzling light before me," Fang Mo bluffed. "It's been about 130 billion years since then, roughly?"

"What?"

Baraggan, probably encountering the situation of his power failing for the first time, felt his brain wasn't working well and blurted out subconsciously: "That old?"

"Yes."

As Fang Mo spoke, he smiled and lifted the giant sword in his hand: "But, you will die before me."
