American Comics: BOSS Invasion

The melodious sound of the violin still lingered.

Shaiapouf's tears, however, flowed incessantly.

The butterfly wings behind him trembled gently, scattering a large amount of scales, which transformed into a hard substance that collided with the approaching cherry blossom blades.

Trapped for so long, Shaiapouf's sky had long turned pink.

Massive amounts of cherry blossoms, massive amounts of blades, a ceaseless killing intent.

Shaiapouf could clearly sense the disappearance of his two companions, but he didn't feel particularly saddened.

To fight to the death, wasn't that the mission of the Royal Guards?

To die before the King's eyes was their supreme honor.

Shaiapouf only felt regret, regret for his incompetence, for not being able to maintain the King's lofty position on the battlefield.

In his heart, the King should be cold and aloof, and no matter what enemy he encountered, all the King needed to do was utter a single word: Kill!

Then the battle would be the Royal Guards' business.

To have the King personally descend to the battlefield to resist the enemy was a disgrace to the Royal Guards.

"What an embarrassment, at such a crucial moment, I cannot protect the King's side. Can this still be considered His Majesty's direct guard?"

The sound of the violin enveloped this sound, making it imperceptible to the outside world.

"It should be about time!"

Shaiapouf suddenly stopped flapping his wings. He grabbed the violin and swung it downwards, and an invisible Nen power blasted out, instantly enveloping the entire cherry blossom cage!

Kacha, kacha...

A sound like gears jamming came, and the cherry blossom blades, which had been flowing continuously like a car shredder, were now forced to stop.

The pink blades were faintly embedded with small, crystalline pieces.

And it was these tiny fragments of scales that were now holding back the blades one by one, and eroding them in reverse with a special method.

Outside, Byakuya Kuchiki, who had been expressionless, suddenly tilted his head slightly. The cherry blossom wave around him surged, crashing towards the cage that sealed Shaiapouf!

"It's useless! No matter how hard your scales are, they cannot withstand the continuous cutting of countless Zanpakuto."

Byakuya Kuchiki said indifferently, "Don't resist meaninglessly, because no matter how you struggle, you will eventually die!"

His voice was not loud, plain and simple, as if it could dissipate in the wind at any moment.

However, in the next moment, Shaiapouf's laughter rang out.

"Truly wonderful! I must admit, you Soul Reapers' power is very special! The power is cold, without the slightest trace of life, yet it is constantly affecting the spirit.

Therefore, I boldly guess, just like our power comes from the King, from a powerful body,

your power should come from your own soul. The manifestation of power is undoubtedly the sword in your hand. Am I right?"

Byakuya Kuchiki said faintly, "What if you know?"

"Perhaps you don't know, the scales on my wings initially only had one ability, and that is hypnosis!"

Crack! Crack!

A cracking sound came out, and the cherry blossom cage, like ordinary gravel, had cracks all over it. The cracks continued to spread, and finally a large piece fell off, revealing a pair of black and white pupils.

Shaiapouf continued, "This hypnotic ability is very weak, and can only be used to make enemies fall into a coma through contact."

Massive amounts of scales flew out from the cracks, surging and expanding the cracks bit by bit.

A large number of fragments fell, and Shaiapouf's figure gradually appeared in sight.

With one foot stepping out, massive amounts of fragments fluttered and fell.

Shaiapouf, who had been trapped for so long, declared his official escape.

"But when my scales come into contact with living things, they will transmit information to me at all times through a hidden signal."

Byakuya Kuchiki's eyes turned slightly cold.

Shaiapouf smiled and said, "That's right. You were too careless. When I was trapped, you obviously relaxed your vigilance!

But I must say, you Soul Reapers' combat power is really powerful. My scales had to cover more than 3,000 layers to have a slight effect on you."

Byakuya Kuchiki prepared to raise his hand to control the cherry blossom sea, giving the enemy another fatal blow.

But his body experienced a moment of stiffness.

His expression remained unchanged, and his mind moved slightly.

The cherry blossom sea suddenly split into two, one half swirling, enveloping Byakuya Kuchiki, while the other half rushed towards Shaiapouf.

Shaiapouf shook his head.

That wave deviated by an angle, brushing past him.

Byakuya Kuchiki's pupils constricted, and Shaiapouf had disappeared from his sight.

"There's no need to waste your energy!"

Shaiapouf said, "The power you use is very special. It took me nearly twenty minutes to barely analyze a part of the characteristics of your power.

Directly manipulating hypnosis is still impossible, but simply adjusting the accuracy of your senses is not a problem."

Byakuya Kuchiki said coldly, "If you think that this little influence can allow you to escape, then you are too naive.

Hado #58, Tenran!"

Without any visible action from Byakuya Kuchiki, he didn't even strike the standard pose for chanting Hado. He simply blew a breath after reciting the incantation.

And this breath swelled against the wind, instantly turning into a horizontal tornado, howling towards Shaiapouf's position, and then sweeping horizontally.

The cherry blossom blades were swept up, waving wildly in the disordered air, looking like a cherry blossom rain, which was quite beautiful.

Shaiapouf's figure flickered, directly avoiding the tornado.

He chuckled and said, "Speaking of which, we haven't introduced ourselves after fighting for so long."

He gently placed his right hand on his left chest, with a hint of pride on his face: "I am His Majesty's direct guard, Shaiapouf! What is your name?"

"You don't need to know!"

Byakuya Kuchiki calmly extended a finger and pointed it between his eyebrows.

Hado #4, Byakurai!"

A flash of lightning flashed, and a scar instantly appeared between Byakuya Kuchiki's eyebrows.

And the light flowed along his body, and a large amount of invisible powder was shaken out.

Byakuya Kuchiki's eyes became sharper.

"Amazing! To actually think of using this method!" Shaiapouf exclaimed.

"But it's useless. My scales are not harmful and will not trigger the human body's defense mechanism. Moreover, after entering your body, they will automatically fuse with the nerves to replace part of their work."

Shaiapouf chuckled and said, "Unless you kill me, you'll never get rid of them!"

"That's exactly what I intend to do!"

Byakuya Kuchiki reached out his right hand again, and the cherry blossoms in the sky disappeared quickly, reassembling into a Zanpakuto in his right hand, and said indifferently:

"A mere sensory induction is not worth mentioning!"
