Chapter 1271 First ‘Child’
"Children that reflect my own life?" Kisuke asked while feeling the black mud under his feet. The moment Tiamat spoke up, there was this strange feeling that started welling up deep in his soul as if something was trying to break out.
[Yes. I asked you not to immediately summon them because I had to make a few changes so that you'd receive my full authority first. If you had summoned them, instead of yours, you'd summon mine, the 11 children that were born out of resentment and regret towards the Deities that I trusted and considered as my own.] There was a small pause before Tiamat continued, [They were children who were manifested solely to slay Gods and that's not something you need right now.]
"I see... So you're saying that if I call them now, they will take on a form that's most suitable for me?"
[Yes. Even I don't know what sorts of creatures you'll come up with. But beware, they are born from the corrupted Sea of Life so they're inherently violent and against the natural order of life itself. If you're not careful, they might go beyond the scope of your control and become loose weapons that only know how to destroy everything around them, including you.]
"Well, only one way to find out, right?" Kisuke took a deep breath and focused on the strange feeling he was having. He didn't have to vocalize anything nor do any special actions when the Sea of Life under him started boiling up.
The next second, an enormous amount of energy was ejected out of Kisuke and sank into the Sea of Life, further heating it up.
Kisuke only intended to come out after he finished summoning the so-called 'children' but with just the process alone, the pure black space started shaking and cracking due to the pressure suddenly increasing from the inside.
So even before any one of them showed themselves to Kisuke, the light started pouring into the absolute darkness and the shell that Ichibei had locked him in began peeling off.
Gravity began to work again and the boiling Sea of Life under him was set in motion. As the black mud spilled out of the black shell, the collapse of the artificial dimension was further hastened. But due to this black mud flooding everything, Kisuke wasn't sure where exactly he was . Although he was sure that he was on the surface of Hell after seeing the purple sky filled with holes that led into the Dimensional Gap.
"What a warm welcome," Kisuke muttered sarcastically because the purple sky and the view to the Dimensional Gap were actually a small portion of what he was seeing with the vast majority of it consisting of maggots and flies waiting for his emergence.Deep inside this forest of bugs and almost ten kilometers away, Ichibei was carefully watching Kisuke while commanding the bugs to leave the ground and fly up.
But even with his speedy reaction, millions of these bugs were instantly drowned by the rushing black mud, 'They instantly died? I can't feel them anymore.'
Ichibei tried sending a few of his stronger flies but the moment they touched the mud they seemed to lose all control of their bodies and were willing to let themselves be swallowed, 'This is...?'
"Trying to figure it out, are we?" Ichibei suddenly heard Kisuke's voice and simultaneously felt a threat coming for him. Ichibei waved his hand and a kilometer thick wall of bugs instantly formed in front of him.
Even then, a three-inch hole suddenly appeared in his stomach spilling out black blood. When he looked forward, he saw that something pierced through his wall of bugs and even went through his exoskeleton that's supposed to be harder than Aizen's armor.
The hole in his stomach started healing and was still considered nothing to Ichibei, however, Kisuke was able to confirm that he was not invulnerable to his attack anymore like before. It was an ability that was similar to Yhwach's Almighty, but now that he was outside of its influence, Kisuke could finally hurt him.
'But where is the pulsing flesh from before? Was it still in the same spot or did he do something about it? He feels a bit different than before.'
[Be careful.] Tiamat, whose senses were attuned with Kisuke, warned, [He's more or less already complete.]
At the same time, Ichibei disappeared from Kisuke's view once again. Kisuke wanted to snipe him one more time to gather more information but he had to stop when a flaming palm, three kilometers across suddenly manifested in the sky as if the sun had descended.
Kisuke's eyes widened at the existence of this giant hand made out of fire and his instincts were screaming at him, telling him how dangerous this is, "What's this?"
[A weakness of the Sea of Life. If you could bring enough destruction down on earth that it'll evaporate the entire sea, it'd be rendering it useless.]
'Well, that's a shame, I was looking forward to face-tanking that.'
[You can, if you want a big portion of the Sea of Life to disappear.]
Kisuke's pink eyes lit up and a translucent round pink barrier that was five kilometers across appeared between him and the descending hand.
The giant flaming hand soon landed on Kisuke's barrier and upon their contact, a massive shockwave instantly erupted from them and created a tsunami on Kisuke's Sea of Life almost a kilometer tall.
If this were to happen on Earth, it would instantly mow down a few countries and no survivors would be recorded for their bodies would have exploded into pieces just from the sheer force they generated from the simple collision alone.
Kisuke's barrier soon started cracking but before they broke, the flaming hand lost its fuel and disappeared.
Of course, Ichibei's assault didn't stop there and at least a hundred thousand bugs went to rush Kisuke while casting various attack Magic.
Kisuke wanted to intercept them but he also noticed that Ichibei was preparing a big attack and would rather be on guard against that, 'I can annihilate them, but that'll open me for an attack for a brief moment. I doubt he'll be able to kill me with just one attack but I can never be too careful.'
There's also a choice of slowly taking care of the bugs, but he'll never be able to get an initiative that way, and will lock him into a perpetual defense.
'So... Do I risk it?' He asked himself when Tiamat interrupted his thoughts, [No need.]
The next instant, a blinding flash of lightning went through his vision and instantly cut down half of the approaching bugs. When the flash of lightning stopped, Kisuke's eyes went wide open as he muttered, "...What? Y-Yoruichi?"
[Looks like that's your first child, 'Yoruichi'. How surprising.]
