Chapter 202: Steve
Upon hearing the system prompt sound in his mind.
To be honest, Fang Mo was also stunned.
He glanced at Kuchiki Byakuya, then at Yoruichi Shihouin who was confronting him not far away, completely puzzled about who triggered this new module.
Because when the module was just activated, Kuchiki Byakuya was in the middle of releasing his abilities.
And Yoruichi Shihouin quickly came over to save someone, pulling Ichigo Kurosaki back a few steps, so strictly speaking, either of them could have triggered it.
Personally, for Fang Mo.
He hoped that this module was triggered by Yoruichi Shihouin.
After all, Yoruichi Shihouin can turn into a cat. Theoretically speaking, if she triggered the module, maybe this module could unlock something like monster girl transformation.
Of course, it's also possible that it was a module unlocked by Kuchiki Byakuya.
Speaking of Kuchiki Byakuya.
He truly is a legendary figure, the real show-off king in the Soul Reaper world. He's one of the earliest captains to appear in the original story, and many of his battles feel like he instantly defeats his opponents. He even dares to instantly defeat the protagonist. All his skills and weapons are for show, like Shunpo, Senbonzakura, Hakuteiken, and Ikka Senjinka, to name a few.
No wonder he's considered noble. When he shows off, he doesn't even blink an eye. This superiority is deeply ingrained in him.
While Fang Mo was thinking about these things, the atmosphere on the battlefield below became increasingly tense.
The early Kuchiki Byakuya was notoriously indifferent. Even if he knew Yoruichi Shihouin from the past, he would raise his hand and try to capture both of them.
Yoruichi Shihouin had been trying to mediate, but Ichigo Kurosaki didn't understand the current situation at all and was still provoking Kuchiki Byakuya, trying to continue the fight.
After all, Ichigo Kurosaki isn't from the Soul Society and doesn't understand the intricacies. In his mind, it's simple: Kuchiki Byakuya is the final BOSS. Once he defeats him, he'd essentially clear the challenge, break into the repentance palace, rescue Rukia, and then return to the living world.
"Really, such a naive kid."
Kuchiki Byakuya clearly did not intend to continue arguing, thinking that doing so would only make him seem less respectable. So he raised his hand and said, "In that case, I'll take both of you down together."
"Quite confident, aren't you, little Byakuya?"
Upon hearing this, Shihouin Yoruichi laughed, "You really think you can catch up to me? In our past games of hide and seek... you never won once."
"That's all in the past."
Kuchiki Byakuya's expression remained unchanged, and he calmly replied, "Now, we'll see."
"..."
Shihouin Yoruichi frowned slightly, thinking that Byakuya had become more and more indifferent. But as she was pondering, suddenly, from not far away, there came strange footsteps.
Considering that both Kurosaki Ichigo and Kuchiki Byakuya were releasing immense spiritual pressures at that moment, no ordinary person could even come close. Therefore, upon hearing the footsteps, everyone instinctively turned their heads.
They then saw a peculiar man.
He had black hair and carried a sword as large as a door plank, casually walking towards them.
"Hm?"
Upon seeing this person, both Kuchiki Byakuya and Yoruichi were taken aback.
Only Kurosaki Ichigo seemed a bit excited upon recognizing him. To him, since this mysterious gentleman was Urahara Kisuke's friend, he surely would be on his side. And with Mr. Yoruichi, or perhaps Ms. Yoruichi, and himself, they would undoubtedly outnumber Kuchiki Byakuya.
Moreover, this man, Fang Mo, had previously fought with Zaraki Kenpachi.
Ichigo wasn't aware of the outcome of that battle, but seeing Fang Mo appearing unscathed now, it was evident that Zaraki Kenpachi lost. And Ichigo knew very well how powerful Zaraki Kenpachi was.
Others might not know her purpose of this trip, but Yoruichi is clear about it.
Her mission isn't just to save Rukia Kuchiki. More importantly, it's to thwart Aizen's scheme. After all, the mysterious order to execute Rukia in Central 46 is strange, since the Hogyoku is hidden within Rukia. Both Yoruichi and Kisuke suspect a conspiracy behind this.
Infiltrating the Soul Society is a severe crime. If Kisuke had sought outside help, he would have definitely informed her.
But Kisuke said nothing, so this guy might not really be on their side.
With this thought, Yoruichi became alert.
"You said you know Urahara Kisuke?"
Yoruichi directly asked, "What is your relationship with him? Why have I never heard him mention you?"
"Because I'm always causing trouble. He doesn't want to be associated with me," Fang Mo replied with a smirk. "Would you associate with someone who constantly bothers you? Just because of a small slip of the tongue, he's been holding a grudge against me... What can I do? It's frustrating."
"What did you say wrong?"
Yoruichi asked curiously.
"I got his cat pregnant," Fang Mo spread his hands. "Of course... It's definitely not mine. I had a male cat at the time. You understand, right? But he wasn't happy about it. I told him, 'If you're not convinced, let's have a duel. Let's use your Benihime.' Anyway, because of a trivial mistake, he stopped talking to me."
"You did it on purpose, right?"
Yoruichi couldn't help but comment.
"That's ancient history," Fang Mo shrugged. "Back then, he was a pure-hearted boy. But now he's become a creepy middle-aged mage. Time flies."
Yoruichi looked at Fang Mo, clearly not fully believing him.
However, just as she was about to speak, a cold voice sounded from nearby.
"Bakudo No. 61: Rikujokoro." With that, six beams of yellow light appeared, trapping Fang Mo in the center. Shortly after, Byakuya Kuchiki slowly approached.
"No matter if you know each other, you're still intruders."
Byakuya said indifferently, "If you're intruders, then I'll capture you both."
"That's a nice move."
Fang Mo didn't seem scared at all. He looked at the six petal-shaped beams of light on him and happily said to Ichigo Kurosaki, "Ichigo, don't I look like a little daisy?"
As he spoke, a white light illuminated around Fang Mo.
With the activation of a custom power named "Steve," a huge yellow petal appeared around his neck. Fang Mo then smiled at Ichigo, "From now on, please call me Mr. Flowey."
"..."
Ichigo didn't know how to react, thinking that this guy really seemed troublesome.
However, Byakuya didn't care. Instinctively sensing Fang Mo as a major trouble, he immediately raised his Zanpakuto: "Scatter, Senbonzakura."
