Reborn with Steve Stand

Chapter 426: Chapter 423: Aizen treats his Subordinates like Condom

"Huh?"

Hearing Lilynette's argument, Starrk began to have doubts as well: "But... isn't that probability a little too small?"

"Why does he always act like he's very familiar with you then?"

Lilynette asked, "Just like this guy said, given the strength he just showed, it wouldn't be a problem for him if he were our enemy, but he didn't do that. Instead, he keeps mentioning your name. Don't you find that strange?"

"What if he's just trying to turn us against each other?"

Starrk inquired.

"Turn us against each other?" Lilynette paused, seemingly coming to a realization.

"Laughable, do I need to turn anyone against each other?" However, upon hearing their conversation, Fang Mo immediately laughed: "To put it unpleasantly, with a single move I could shatter the entire Hueco Mundo. If I really wanted to turn you against each other, why wouldn't I just bring over Yammy? Yammy claims to be the Zero Espada, after all."

"You..."

Starrk frowned slightly, but before he could continue, Fang Mo suddenly pointed a finger at him.

"Starrk!"

Lilynette quickly shouted, and of course, Starrk immediately reacted, activating Sonído in an instant.

And just as Starrk dodged, a heaven-piercing white light burst from Fang Mo's fingertip, like a cataclysmic flood, directly tearing through the clouds above Seireitei and ripping a huge hole in the atmosphere nearby, revealing the dark outer space.

"This..."

Starrk was somewhat stunned as he looked up at the hole in the sky: "What's the deal with this guy!?"

"Now's not the time to be dazed, idiot!"

Seeing this, Lilynette immediately shouted.

"Right." After hearing Lilynette's words, Starrk also came to his senses and placed his hand on Lilynette's head. Immediately, a soaring spiritual pressure erupted, and in an instant, Starrk activated his Resurrección, changing his appearance.

Before his Resurrección, he looked like an ordinary long-haired uncle, but now he suddenly had two pistols in his hands, and his legs, arms, and shoulders were adorned with decorations resembling wolf fur.

At the same time, his left eye also gained a piece resembling an aiming assist lens.

After completing his Resurrección, an aura of solitude and power emanated from him, as if he had become a proud lone wolf king.

"Didn't expect that, did you? My Resurrección merges with my subordinate officer."

After completing his Resurrección, Starrk briefly introduced: "Because of Lilynette..."

"Ah right, the other half of the soul, I understand."

Fang Mo directly nodded and said, "You have always told me before that genius is destined to be lonely, so now you have split your soul in two, giving birth to Lilynette, right?"

"It seems you know quite a bit."

Hearing Fang Mo's statement, Starrk also frowned.

"Not only do I know this, but I also know you can split your soul into even more fragments, turning into many wolves that can self-destruct," Fang Mo said with a smile. "But... there must be a drawback to this, right? For example, if the entire pack of wolves were to explode, Lilynette would also disappear, correct?"

"You..."

Hearing this, Starrk's face also changed.

This time, he did not continue to speak, but directly raised a handgun towards Fang Mo.

Without any warning, a blue-green brilliance erupted instantly, far surpassing other hollows in both power and speed, and in an instant, half of the sky was dyed blue.

"So fast!"

The spectators witnessing this scene also showed shocked expressions.

Indeed, Starrk's Cero was too fast, feeling just like a handgun firing. Normally, a large hollow using a Cero would have a process of gathering energy, but this guy really just raised his hand and did it, as if even Fang Mo couldn't avoid it, getting hit directly by the Cero.

However, very quickly, the smoke and dust dispersed.

Unscathed, Fang Mo reappeared in mid-air.

"How many times have I said not to keep playing with your palm cannon that does no damage? Why won't you listen?" Fang Mo showed an expression of disappointment.

"Hm?"

Starrk also frowned upon seeing this: "Not only is your strength formidable, but your defense is also astonishingly strong, then... let's try this."

After saying this, Starrk suddenly aimed his gun at Fang Mo, and this time, a large cluster of bright blue orbs rapidly formed in front of him, followed by a loud boom, and the entire sky was completely obscured as hundreds of Ceros burst forth at the same time.

Now, the power was truly terrifying.

In the original work, due to the limitations of anime's expressive power, Starrk's Cero didn't seem very strong.

But the opponent is, after all, the No. 1 Espada, whose special technique is a Cero, and the power of each Cero is quite astonishing. Once this unlimited Cero was activated, really, not a bit of sky could be seen over the entire city, and the surrounding spiritual particles were frantically collapsing.

Although the battle took place in mid-air.

Even so, the countless Ceros launched in the high sky still affected the area below.

To this day, many buildings in Karakura Town began to shake, countless glasses shattered all at once, and some people with high spiritual awareness have completely fallen to the ground by this time, unable to even breathe, let alone run.

"What the hell is this!?"

From a distance, Renji Abarai was dumbfounded at the scene: "Is this really a Cero?"

"It is said that he is the number one Espada."

Nearby, Urahara Kisuke looked at the sky with a grave expression: "It's a good thing they are fighting in mid-air, otherwise, the whole of Karakura Town might have been destroyed."

"The number one Espada?"

Kurosaki Ichigo, not far away, heard this and stared blankly into the sky, his expression complex and thoughtful.

"What a monster." Even Kenpachi, the battle-loving captain of Squad 11, couldn't help but comment after seeing this: "A Cero of this scale, I guess one hit would be enough to blast you to pieces."

"Monster?"

Hitsugaya Toshiro couldn't help but look up and point at the sky: "Look carefully before you speak. After all, the real monster is on our side..."

"What?"

Everyone unconsciously looked up in the direction he pointed.

Indeed, they saw a black shadow standing amidst an infinite group of Ceros, withstanding the bombardment of the fierce blue energy, yet remaining unshaken.

"Isn't... this guy possibly a Hollow?"

Renji Abarai, seeing this, couldn't help but be moved: "But even the steel skin of a Hollow couldn't possibly withstand a barrage of Ceros of this magnitude, right?"

"Don't try to rationalize a monster with common sense."

This time, it was Yoruichi who spoke, her gaze fixed on the sky. Unlike others, her look towards the subject was filled with concern, considering the dried fish previously consumed wasn't for naught, she truly considered him a dear friend.

Anyway, the scene shifts back to mid-air.

After withstanding a barrage of endless Ceros, Fang Mo gained a deeper understanding of his armor.

The combination of Crystal Matrix + Uru's reality materialization indeed has an extremely high resistance to physical attacks, but being magical materials, they are even more absurd against pure energy.

At this moment, Fang Mo is bathed in a sea of pale blue spiritual power.

Feeling not the slightest impact.

After confirming the characteristics of his armor, he immediately initiated a Void Shift, appearing behind Starrk and kicking out.

"!"

Starrk's reaction was swift, countering almost instantly with his gun, but before he could pull the trigger, he was kicked away. The force of Fang Mo's kick was tremendous, even feeling as if his bones were about to split.

"Starrk!"

Starrk's pistol transmitted the voice of Lilynette, followed by a sudden flash of white light, and a large pack of ghost wolves appeared around him.

"Hey! Lilynette!" Starrk immediately shouted upon seeing this: "Stop!"

However, before he could finish his sentence, the pack of wolves charged towards Fang Mo, biting into his body and exploding, but such things couldn't hurt Fang Mo at all. So, in the next second, he charged forward, crushing almost all the wolf pack in his path, and then placed his hand on Starrk's forehead.

"Wha..."

Starrk was also confused, but before he could finish his sentence, he suddenly felt pain in his right hand, and the pistol that had turned into Lilynette was snatched away by the other party.

"Give it back to me!"

Seeing this, Starrk immediately panicked.

However, Fang Mo teleported again, suddenly appearing hundreds of meters away.

"Give Lilynette back to..." Upon seeing this, Starrk immediately followed suit, reaching out to grab Fang Mo, but the next second, he suddenly froze in place.

Because Fang Mo had extended a finger, pressing it against his pistol.

Remembering the earth-shattering photon cannon from before, Starrk didn't dare to make any rash moves, only able to clench his teeth and stare at the other party.

"Don't look at me like that, we're old friends after all."

Fang Mo cheerfully took out a golden basin and then pulled out a strangely shaped box: "When you died from palladium poisoning before, I was the first to rush over and save you. It doesn't matter if you don't remember me, but have you really forgotten my Manyullyn surgical knife?"

"What nonsense..."

Starrk stared at Fang Mo and said: "Just give Lilynette back to me!"

"Hey, don't be in such a hurry."

As Fang Mo spoke, he magically pulled out a lump of something green: "How about a magic trick?"

"What on earth..."

Before Starrk could open his mouth, Fang Mo slapped the green lump onto his gun: "Do you see your Lilynette now? It turned green just like that, very fast."

"You!"

Before Starrk could react, Fang Mo dipped the pistol into the golden basin, immediately causing a lot of bubbles to emerge. Of course, Starrk was anxious, but every time he tried to act, Fang Mo would point at Lilynette, leaving him completely unsure of what to do.

And so, Starrk watched helplessly as Fang Mo stuffed five large obsidian slabs into Lilynette and then smeared the surface with redstone.

At the end.

Fang Mo even pulled out a diamond-shaped silver crystal and forcefully inserted it into the barrel.

"Here, it's yours now."

Just as Starrk was somewhat at a loss, Fang Mo suddenly tossed the gun back to him, prompting him to hurriedly catch it: "Lilynette, are you alright!?"

"I'm... I'm fine..."

Lilynette's voice came from the pistol, sounding a bit confused: "Starrk, my soul feels a bit strange."

"What do you mean by strange?"

Starrk looked up at Fang Mo, who was not far away: "What have you done to Lilynette, you bastard?"

"Although loneliness is part of your charm, becoming weaker is just stupid," Fang Mo said, spreading his hands: "What's with the writers on your side, one you and one Koro-sensei? Don't you realize that becoming weaker is a flaw? Can't you continue to become stronger and then find a way to solve your own problems?"

"What do you mean?"

Starrk asked.

"This world is naturally survival of the fittest. You have a say only when you are strong," Fang Mo said. "Making yourself weak and then having companions is just charity from Aizen. He has the power to take those back at any time, understand?"

"Starrk, I feel my soul has become whole again..."

As soon as Fang Mo finished speaking, Lilynette also started speaking: "I can't split into a wolf pack anymore, but I... I don't know what's happening, but I feel like I won't disappear anymore. Can you feel it? It seems like my soul is bound to yours."

"Hmm?"

Upon hearing this, Starrk also felt for it and indeed felt a strange connection, a sense that even without speaking, the two could understand each other's intentions.

He could feel his soul and Lilynette's flowing into each other, the stronger spirit pressure slowly transferring soul and strength to the weaker one. Their souls seemed to intertwine slowly, still independent but closely connected.

"This..."

Starrk looked up at Fang Mo in surprise: "Did you do this?"

"Don't get any weaker, understand?"

Fang Mo didn't admit it but simply smiled at Starrk: "I'm also busy and can't be there to clean up your mess all the time."

"...Thank you."

Starrk hesitated for a while before finally asking: "Is there anything you want me to do for you?"

"Stop following Aizen. Join me instead."

Seeing this, Fang Mo directly extended an olive branch: "Aizen treats his subordinates like disposable condoms, uses them and then throws them away. If you don't believe me, you can ask that genius child over there, Hitsugaya Toshiro. He had a friend named Momo, who diligently played the little fangirl for Aizen, only to be betrayed by him in the end."

Upon hearing this, Starrk also turned to look at Hitsugaya Toshiro nearby.

"You damn Ryoka!"

Hitsugaya Toshiro roared after hearing this: "Don't compare Momo to such disgusting things!"
