Playing With Other Supernaturals

Chapter 1286 The Crimson Warrior

Chapter 1286 The Crimson Warrior

Those who came with Azazel, Issei Hyoudou, Kuisha Abaddon, Seekvaira Agares, and Georg Faust, remained silent. Although this wasn't the first time Issei had been suddenly called like this, he immediately noticed the heavy atmosphere and decided to listen in, 'These members, do they want to do some large-scale space manipulation? So I'm here for support.'

[Issei, take a look at that.] Ddraig interrupted his thoughts.

Although he didn't have anything to point with, Issei immediately knew what he was talking about, 'Great Red is alive as you've said. As expected of Kisuke. And if this is revealed, a lot of those old men would be restrained, to a certain degree at least.'

Issei scanned his surroundings and saw some familiar faces. Although he wanted to greet them, he held himself back. He also saw 'Hestia' but immediately concluded that this is not the Hestia that he knew, 'The situation is becoming weirder and weirder. Just what are they all waiting for, standing like they are ready to cut down anyone who approaches them?'

[Take a closer look again. Those guys give off the same aura as Kisuke Urahara. Not to mention, the man on the right is making me nervous just looking at him.]

Of course, Issei also instantly noticed Aizen but decided to be on guard against him while ignoring him for now. While he's setting off alarms in his head, there is no hostility coming from him and he wants it to remain that way as Issei and the others who came with him know how eccentric people at that level are, 'One wrong look and things might get dicey.'

If their current actions are not eliciting hostile reactions, then they're doing something good.

While wondering where Kisuke was and the conversation between Ajuka and Azazel progressed, Issei was able to confirm that his guess was right, though on a much larger scale than he ever imagined.

Issei was still not able to wrap his head around 'moving three worlds' when a crack in the sky manifested and a horrifying feeling immediately crashed into everyone's mind. As they looked up, they saw nothing but darkness, dotted with strange eyes full of malice, "What the..." Issei muttered loudly.

But unlike the people wearing traditional articles of clothing, Issei's group and those who came from the same world as him managed to respond faster with his gauntlet letting out continuous [Boost] noises, "Should I go for a preemptive attack?"

"You watch its movements for now. If you want to attack it, consult Great Red." Azazel immediately replied while looking at the eyes before turning back to Ajuka, "Let's get this done. Kuisha, Seekvaira, Georg. We're in a race against time. Give us your ideas."

"Let Kunou-chan help you." Serafall added, "She has a good grasp of the three world's structure."

Without waiting for their reply, Kunou ran towards the group and started showing them various diagrams through her Magic, immediately joining their conversation.

"Tanis-chan, take care of Claire-chan, okay?" Serafall gave her final instructions before walking towards Issei.

Thanks to their strangely calm demeanor, the Shinigami group also managed to get their bearings together, "It looks like I'm really getting old." Yamamoto chuckled while brushing his beard with his hand.

"Don't make this about your age. They're the strange ones." Mayuri immediately retorted while looking up. The sky cracked but there's nothing happening beyond it in the meantime, 'But that won't be for long. The moment he reaches out once again signifies that Urahara has failed.'

"Serafall-san. It's been a while. Where's Kisuke?" Issei asked when Serafall came closer.

Serafall gestured towards the crack in the sky and answered, "Fighting that thing."

Issei, Azazel, and Ajuka were incredibly surprised that she didn't have her usual upbeat attitude since they knew that she was someone who could still laugh and joke around even if the situation was dangerous.

It's only natural that Serafall couldn't remain smiling. After all, she also realized the implication of Ichibei's arrival, 'And I can't feel even a slither of his aura... Kisuke... Please be safe.'

At this point, the other members of the Gotei 13 started making their way toward the Soukyoku Hill because the nobles around had stopped causing problems.

"Hey, Ddraig. Poke that thing for a bit." Flanna suddenly raised his voice.

Issei knew that she was actually referring to him because that's what Ophis used to call him too, "I won't be able to hurt that though?"

"It's fine."

Soifon was the first one to arrive and appeared beside Shunsui, "Who are they?" She immediately asked.

"...Friends from the other side?", replied Shunsui but he was not too sure either. He and the others are wondering what Flanna meant when she said to poke the eyes, 'Poke? Out of everyone here, only the old man could probably make those eyes blink for a moment... And Zaraki perhaps.'

However, Shunsui and other's minds would blank out when Issei released his Draconic Aura.

Upon receiving confirmation from the Great Red, all the boost he's getting instantly takes effect, resulting in his oppressive aura exploding out. Although it didn't have the same pressuring effect as the Reiatsu, Issei's Draconic Aura would instantly send those with weaker minds into panic if not outright losing their consciousness.

"Promotion, 'True Queen'." Issei muttered and subsequently his gauntlet, [Cardinal Crimson Promotion!]

In an instant, his deep red armor changed into a bright crimson one as its scales morphed to become sharper and a set of crimson translucent wings emerged on his back.

'Hestia' understood his intentions and adjusted the barrier for him. As soon as Issei saw the opening, he kicked the ground which almost made the Soukyoku Hill collapse and transformed into a streak of crimson light.

Issei stopped just beneath the crack and took a quick peek at what was beyond it. It was then that he realized what he was looking at, 'What the heck? This is terrifying.'

[Don't get close. You've become a lot more durable compared to years ago, but you'll be out of commission if that thing hits you.] Ddraig hurriedly warned, also realizing the monster behind the crack, [I have a feeling this guy is capable of even more destructive power than Ophis and Great Red.]

'Don't worry. That feeling is clear to me too.' Issei took a long breath and retreated for a bit before the wings on his back transformed into two long cannons on his shoulders, "Crimson Blaster!"

The cannons on Issei's shoulder lit up for a bit before releasing devastating green and crimson beams that intertwined with each other.

To those watching from below, it only looked like a tiny glowing stick compared to the eyes beyond the crack, but thanks to Ophis, Lilith, and 'Hestia' they could hardly feel any tremors from it.

But the moment this stick touched one of the eyes, a blinding crimson light that served as a second sun dawned on the entirety of Soul Society.

"!?"

It was a blast that was enough to easily obliterate the entire Seireitei and leave nothing behind. A power of pure violence.
