Reborn with Steve Stand

Chapter 188: Steve Chapter 187

"Can you guys see this thing?"

Fang Mo pointed at Steve, looking a bit surprised as he asked the two people.

"What, should I not be able to see it?"

The person who answered was Komamura Sajin. Perhaps because his previous attack had failed, he started to get serious, "Captain Ichimaru, since you are seriously injured, you should go back and get treatment. I can handle him by myself."

"Well then, I'll leave it to you, Captain Komamura..."

Ichimaru Gin indeed wanted to leave. His purpose here was merely to repel the intruders. However, the situation had clearly deviated from the plan. He needed to go back and inform Aizen.

As for whether Komamura Sajin could handle the disaster, Ichimaru Gin didn't care.

In a moment, Ichimaru Gin's figure instantly disappeared from the spot, and Fang Mo shifted his attention to Komamura Sajin in front of him.

"So why did you bring that iron helmet?"

Fang Mo curiously looked at Komamura Sajin.

"Are you mocking me?"

The voice of Komamura Sajin seemed slightly angry. He had realized during Fang Mo's teasing that this guy had definitely seen through his identity. Making that sound was provocative.

"Of course not."

Fang Mo shook his head, then revealed a smile, "I think we should become the best of friends."

"I will not become friends with you."

While saying this, Komamura Sajin raised his Zanpakuto, "The mission of the Gotei 13 is to protect the Seireitei, and I will absolutely not allow you to act recklessly here..."

"No."

Before Komamura Sajin could finish speaking, Fang Mo seriously interrupted him, "You will."

"Heavenly Punishment!"

Komamura Sajin didn't continue the conversation, directly releasing his Zanpakuto to attack Fang Mo.

"Wood Style!"

Fang Mo put his hands together, and immediately several thorns extended from his body into the ground. The next second, countless dark thorns sprang up from the ground, entangling Komamura Sajin.

"Trivial insect tricks!"

Upon seeing this, Komamura Sajin snorted coldly. The blade that was supposed to chop down was immediately turned into a horizontal sweep.

The Heavenly Punishment blade swept horizontally, cutting off several thorns, but at that moment, more thorns erupted from the cut ends, directly entangling Komamura Sajin.

Komamura Sajin struggled for a moment, but this thing was unexpectedly tough.

Seeing Steve (the blocky monster) slowly walking towards him, Komamura Sajin realized he couldn't hide his skills any longer, preparing to activate his Bankai.

"Bankai, Kokujō Tengen—..."

However, before he could finish speaking, Steve's hand suddenly had a bone in it, and he right-clicked Komamura Sajin.

Then, black particles started to emerge from Komamura Sajin's body.

"Hmm?"

Seeing this, Fang Mo was immediately overjoyed.

Although he didn't know what was going on, these black particle effects only appeared when taming a wolf failed. Right-clicking other creatures with a bone wouldn't produce this effect.

Failure is not terrible; it means there's a chance of success.

So, Fang Mo's hand speed went to the max, and Steve right-clicked an entire stack of bones in an instant.

And at the moment when the sixty-fourth bone disappeared, pixelated heart effects suddenly emerged from Komamura Sajin. His Bankai pose also came to a sudden halt, and he froze in place.

"What did you do to me?"

After quite a while, Komamura Sajin spoke hesitantly, "Why do I feel like you have no ill intent towards the Seireitei?"

"I never had any ill intent to begin with."

Fang Mo smiled and shrugged: "What bad intentions could a simple guy like me have?"

"Ah, I see. Perhaps I was too abrupt before."

Komamura Sajin unconsciously nodded.

"Zi zi zi. (Calling a Dog)"

Seeing this, Fang Mo tried making strange noises at Komamura Sajin again: "Zi zi zi zi zi..."

"...Why are you doing this?" Komamura Sajin also looked puzzled, "Do we have a grudge? Why are you humiliating me like this?"

"Hmm? Is it not allowed?"

Upon seeing Komamura Sajin's state, Fang Mo also unconsciously nodded.

It seemed that offering a bone in reality did not fully tame the other, but rather seemed like an act of gaining favor.

Just because you've tamed someone doesn't mean you can do whatever you want. The other party still has their own thoughts. What they like and dislike hasn't changed; they're just very friendly towards you, or see you as very important.

As for how things will develop, it's up to you to handle it.

"I didn't mean to humiliate you."

Thinking of this, Fang Mo explained, "You said I'm a 'Ryoka,' right? Actually, I come from another world. In our world, 'zi zi zi' signifies goodwill. You just misunderstood. Of course, I now understand that here it means humiliation, so I won't use it anymore."

"Is that so?"

Due to the high level of goodwill, Komamura Sajin didn't doubt much and nodded: "I see, it really was a misunderstanding... Also, it's rude to keep calling you a Ryoka. What's your name?"

"Call me Fang Mo."

Fang Mo said.

"Fang Mo." Komamura Sajin nodded, "This isn't a place for a chat. Shall we go somewhere else?"

"Wait, let me change my appearance."

Fang Mo nodded, then with a thought, suddenly wore a Shinigami-specific outfit, and his features became ordinary. He then reached out and pulled out a Tinker' Construct Katana sword as his Zanpakuto and hung it at his waist.

"Okay, let's go."

After transforming, Fang Mo directly spoke to a dumbfounded Komamura Sajin.

Komamura Sajin didn't speak, turning around and walking in a certain direction. Fang Mo naturally followed him, and soon the two arrived at the barracks of Squad 7.

After arriving at Squad 7's barracks, Komamura Sajin sat directly across from Fang Mo.

"Now we can have a good talk, Fang Mo."

Back in his own place, Komamura Sajin didn't bother hiding anymore. He took off the iron shell on his head, revealing a large dog's head.

Yes, it was a dog's head.

Specifically, a Shiba Inu's head.

Komamura Sajin's character setup is strange. He is said to be a soul that fell into the animal realm due to a major mistake in his previous life but did not die completely. He turned into a shinigami in a non-human form and should technically be considered a descendant of the werewolf clan.

However, no matter how you look at it, his appearance and color are very similar to a Shiba Inu.

Thinking of Komamura Sajin's low ranking in the Thirteen Court Guard Squads, Fang Mo couldn't help but think of a popular online comparison picture of Shiba Inus. On the left is a muscular and annoying Shiba Inu, and on the right is a useless one.

The comparison is very apt for describing Komamura Sajin's abilities.

Left side: Activating Bankai Kokujō Tengen Myō'ō! A Powerful Armor with Great Strength!

Right side: Woo woo woo, Aizen one-shotted me with a black coffin and even took away my only friend, Tosen.

"I believe you've already figured it out."

Komamura Sajin didn't know what Fang Mo was thinking and said, "This is why I've been hiding myself. I am not a human, and even among the Thirteen Court Guard Squads, I am the only heretic. Only the captain of Squad 9, Tosen, is my friend, but he's actually blind..."

"It's really your mindset that's the problem."

Fang Mo heard this and shook his head with a smile, "I really admire your life philosophy. Loyalty is easy to talk about, but how many people in the world can actually achieve it? To be blunt, I really look down on those who are disloyal. As for you, I really want to be friends with you."

Yes, Komamura Sajin's character in the original story is loyal.

During the Thousand-Year Blood War, he even dedicated everything to these two words.

"Your magnanimity is extraordinary, just like the Head Captain."

Hearing Fang Mo's words, Komamura Sajin seemed very pleased as well. However, before he could speak, Fang Mo said,

"So can I 'rub' you a bit?"

"What?"

Komamura Sajin was taken aback.

"Just a 'rub'." Fang Mo simply gestured with his hand, "It's a way to show friendliness where I come from. Elders occasionally pat the heads of younger ones, you know?"

"I've lived for three or four hundred years."

Komamura Sajin couldn't help but say, "Even if we're talking about younger and older, you should be the younger one, right?"

"I've lived for tens of thousands of years."

Fang Mo didn't even hesitate when lying, "You want to compare me?"

"What?" Komamura Sajin was stunned, not expecting Fang Mo to be deceiving him, "But why do you look like you haven't aged at all?"

"I share the same lifespan as heaven and earth; the concept of aging doesn't apply to me," Fang Mo spread his hands.

"Aren't you human?"

Komamura Sajin couldn't help but ask.

"Do I look human?" Fang Mo countered, "Have you ever seen a human who can withstand blades and spears with their own defense without using spiritual energy?"

At this point, Fang Mo took out a piece of Sekkiseki.

"See this? This is a Sekkiseki."

As he spoke, Fang Mo inserted half of his arm into the Sekkiseki and pointed at his own face, "So, you call this sort of thing human?"

"This..."

Komamura Sajin hesitated. It did seem to make some sense.

No ordinary human could possibly do something like this.

"So let me 'rub' you already," Fang Mo gestured to Komamura Sajin, "I've lived much longer than you, so you're definitely my junior. Let me pat your head quickly..."

"...Still, no."

Komamura Sajin hesitated for a long time and finally said, "A real man keeps his integrity. I've thought about it, and I really can't do such a thing. I'm sorry, my friend. Although our ages differ greatly, I truly consider you a close friend..."

"Tsk, fine then."

Hearing Komamura Sajin say this, Fang Mo had no choice but to give it up.

After all, he now knew that Steve could tame creatures. If Komamura Sajin falls for this, wouldn't Yoruichi fall for it too?

Steve's backpack is full of little dried fish. He could just feed them all at once later.

Wouldn't it be nice to 'rub' Yoruichi directly?
