Reborn with Steve Stand

Chapter 204: Steve Chapter 203

I don't know if it's Fang Mo's illusion.

After activating his Zanpakuto, Kuchiki Byakuya's strength seems to have increased a bit.

But this is just like Zaraki Kenpachi taking off his eyepatch. Although his strength has indeed increased, to put it plainly, it's just that, and he is still far from threatening Fang Mo.

After all, my armor is made of Vibranium, plus the vast defense shared by Steve, and the protection from the unknown calculation of damage reduction percentage, and finally his thick skin. Even with all his effort, Zaraki Kenpachi could only break a bit of the defense.

Even if Kuchiki Byakuya's strength is almost on par with him, at most he would only take a few hearts.

Given Fang Mo's current rate of healing, he would recover in less than a second.

A threat?

Probably living in a dream.

However, Kuchiki Byakuya still firmly believes in himself, and now he rushes towards Fang Mo with his sword, so Fang Mo just symbolically fights back a couple of times.

The weapon Fang Mo currently holds is the broadsword.

He has been using this for a long time, probably since Thor was first banished from the heavens. It felt handy at that time, but now it feels completely different.

This weapon seriously mismatches Fang Mo's current strength.

Using this in a fight, according to the Shinigami, is like not releasing a Zanpakutō and just relying on a single shallow hit (katana) in combat.

Yet with this, Fang Mo was still suppressing Kuchiki Byakuya.

Fang Mo swung his hand, and the thick Sword, like lightning, slashed horizontally. Kuchiki Byakuya immediately blocked it, but his katana couldn't withstand this unmatched power and broke instantly.

Luckily, he knew how to offload the force, so he flew out with it.

In the next second, another sword flew into his hand. Kuchiki Byakuya stuck the sword into the ground, forcefully stopping his motion.

At this moment, Fang Mo rushed up and delivered a heavy blow.

Kuchiki Byakuya, seeing this, didn't dare to resist directly and retreated. With a thought, the hovering blades in the air shot at Fang Mo, like sword control techniques.

However, Fang Mo didn't even bother dodging. The katana hit Fang Mo with a crisp sound, and he just kept moving towards Kuchiki Byakuya. With a diagonal swing, Kuchiki Byakuya tried to block, but he couldn't. He couldn't dodge either, and a deep gash appeared on him.

"!"

Kuchiki Byakuya was startled and quickly retreated using Shunpo.

Fang Mo didn't pursue it. Instead, he provocatively placed the Sword on his shoulder, and with his other hand, he casually grabbed the blade of a katana in mid-air.

The next second, with a little force from Fang Mo, the blade instantly shattered into countless fragments.

"..."

Seeing this, Kuchiki Byakuya understood.

"It seems that even with Senbonzakura Kageyoshi, it is impossible to break through the steel skin of this monster. It's no wonder Captain Kenpachi lost. This is truly a monster through and through."

Thinking of this, Kuchiki Byakuya suddenly took a deep breath. With a thought, all the blades around him shattered instantaneously, disintegrating into petals that converged towards him. However, as these petals gathered on Kuchiki Byakuya, they gradually turned into a white light, transforming into something akin to wings of light.

"Senbonzakura Final Scene, Shūkei: Hakuteiken."

Kuchiki Byakuya said solemnly while raising the only Zanpakutō in his hand.

A dazzling halo rose from behind him, connecting the two wings of light. His whole body then started to radiate a cold white light.

"This is my final blow."

Kuchiki Byakuya slowly raised his Zanpakutō above his head: "I'll use this to settle things with you."

"This aura is indeed extraordinary," Fang Mo smiled faintly, "So be it... I will take this seriously, out of respect for our past."

Kuchiki Byakuya didn't say much. With a powerful stomp on the ground, he rushed straight at Fang Mo.

"Xiaoxue, it's your turn."

Fang Mo casually threw the sword aside and drew the Snow Queen's Sword from his bosom. An overwhelming coldness erupted, coating everything in the vicinity with a thick layer of frost. Without any extra movement, Fang Mo simply swung the sword forward.

A cold, pristine white light burst forth, turning into a towering pillar of light.

Soon, the light faded.

Kuchiki Byakuya's blade pierced into Fang Mo's chest.

As for Fang Mo's great sword, it went completely through Kuchiki Byakuya's left shoulder, slicing through the collarbone, ribs, lung, scapula, artery, diaphragm, and other human tissues, almost cutting him in half.

However, due to the extreme cold magic of the Ice Queen,

Kuchiki Byakuya's wound, and even his entire body, were completely frozen in solid ice.

Although he was looking at Fang Mo with his eyes open, he was wrapped in solid ice and had clearly lost consciousness. The most evident sign of this was his spiritual pressure, which had almost disappeared.

"Hmm... Three hearts."

Looking at Steve's status bar, Fang Mo nodded subconsciously, "Worthy of being Hueco Mundo's number one sword, the Shūkei: Hakuteiken does have some power."

Sheathing his two weapons, Fang Mo smiled and patted Kuchiki Byakuya on the shoulder.

"Soul Society's little god, you did your best."

As soon as his voice fell, a system prompt sounded in Fang Mo's mind.

[System Prompt: The styles of 'stone lantern', 'sliding door', 'tile', 'maple tree', 'offering plate', 'tatami', 'bamboo', 'kimono', 'katana', 'cherry blossom' and others have been researched. You have obtained the download permission for a new module.]

[System Prompt: Cherry Blossom module begins downloading.]

[System Prompt: Cherry Blossom module download complete, would you like to load it?]

"Ah, I knew it was this one."

After hearing the series of system prompts in his mind, Fang Mo couldn't help but sigh.

He had played with this module before.

As the name suggests, it is a module with a Japanese-style theme.

Most of the gameplay in it is very similar to the Bamboo module, or you could say it is a direct replica of the Bamboo module for higher game versions. After all, the Bamboo module died out in the 1.7.10 era due to the author's reasons.

But this Cherry Blossom module absorbed most of the concepts from the Bamboo module and integrated some other elements, like the ancient modules of maple trees. Then, it was reborn as a brand-new module in 1.12.2. Fang Mo didn't have much exposure to the others, but things like the stone mill, bamboo shoots, and ghost flames had settings that were almost identical to the Bamboo module.

Fang Mo didn't really want to load this module.

But, embarrassingly enough, he was coveting the lucky block, so he eventually nodded in agreement.

"Um... Load it."

However, just after Fang Mo said this,

A strange sound, like a tape jamming, suddenly rang in his mind. Then, after a few seconds, a system prompt that Fang Mo had never heard before suddenly sounded.

[System Prompt: Overlap of more than 70% detected between Bamboo module and Cherry Blossom module. Merge them?]
