{Zhynnsy'i/Shensei POV}
I'm lying down on my glorious carpet while eating human-size donuts. It's been a week since I met the Kurosaki. I wonder if they took my bluff seriously. I don't want to be a bad guy. Having another bite of my snack, I hummed.
I thought of fucking Aizen over. Not in a dirty way, but I needed something that could make me laugh. Do I reveal I have the power to make arrancars? Maybe I should ask out his Zanpakuto for a date? I read somewhere his sword is female.
A perverted smile soon came on my face. Kufufufu... If that information is correct. I'll be spanking that sword's ass hard. It tempted me to use my omniscience, but... screw it, I'm taking a peek.
...
OH MY ME! Those aren't cannons! Those are freaking nukes! How the fuck is her back in one piece!? Damn, that ass is like a mountain and hill having a baby! I saw her looking around before her eyes landed on me. OH SHIT! ABORT! ABORT! ABORT!
I shut off my all-knowing voodoo. Damn, I'm not letting go of that sword if Aizen hands me that kind of babe. I giggled as I rubbed my hands together.
{Soul society - third person POV}
Aizen was making a false report after his failed experiment. His plan to wield Hogyoku was beginning, but suddenly he felt his zanpakuto shiver along with him. It felt like someone was watching him. His sword had the urge to castrate something.
Curious.
He calmly took a sip from the tea beside him. No matter, all shall fall before him as he planned.
[Bitch, please, I'd whoop your sorry ass if you pulled that kind of shit on me.]
Aizen stood up, battle-ready, as he heard a voice. He scanned his office and found none but himself. He waited for a bit before relaxing and sitting back in the chair. Hmm... come to think of it, he didn't remember bringing tea in his office.
*PooT*
As Gin entered his office to plan their next move, the sound of a fart echoed. Aizen stood up and found a wet brown painting on his seat. In Gin's eyes, he saw the man he planned to kill, taking a shit in his pants.
The two men remained quiet, both for different reasons. Until a yell broke it; the voice belonging to the same person Aizen heard, followed by the sound of a device taking a picture.
*Kacha*
"Oh shit, Aizen is taking a shit in his pants!"
That was the day Aizen's reputation took a deep blow, and no one knew who did it.
{Zhynnsy'i/Shensei POV}
I cackled like a hyena as my guts were ready to burst. I can't believe that I did that without getting caught. What a shame, I can't take the credit, but the picture I took and spread around soul society was worth it.
Now I'm curious about what's going to happen. Looking at the picture again, I laughed harder. Starrk and Lilinyette went inside my hut, followed by Harribel and Grimmjow, who looked annoyed by my loud voice but curious about what I was watching. Once I showed them, the first thing their faces turned into was disgust. Once I told them his rank, everyone what his position was, all hell broke loose.
Only Harribel and Starrk remained quiet, but even I can tell they think it's hilarious. "Only you would come up with something that crazy," Lilinyette said while patting my back. "So how did you do it?"
"Well, Soul Society left the back door open. I couldn't resist looking at the so called 'heaven.' I have to be honest it's boring." I said. "What's the point of going to heaven if you're just gonna die there, anyway!?"
Seriously, that bugged me the most in bleach. Rukia claims soul society was like heaven. But last time I checked, heaven doesn't have human needs. All I saw there was a feudal Japan with superpowers. I'm surprised only Aizen thought of resetting the whole afterlife.
I know it's part of the plot, but if anyone were in my shoes, I bet even they think it's not worth it.
There's no internet, damn it! How can a modern person live with that!?
I stopped rambling when another Hollow rushed into my hut. "Shensei-sama, Barragan... He's on the move." He said.
"So?"
"My liege, he is planning on attacking us with his army." The hollow panicked.
"Chill, dude. Here, have a donut." I said while raising the box. "You sound like we're at a disadvantage."
[Bleach OST - Tables Have Turned]
My words got everyone's attention. "Barragan's army may be smaller, but he has more Vasto Lorde than us. We might face him on the battlefield." Harribel said. I just laughed at her warning. "Even the giants fell under the strength of an ant. What we need is a good plan. We have two and a half Vasto Lorde, the bloodthirsty Adjuchas; Grimmjow. Not to mention me."
"That's won't be enough. We can't protect them while facing any of the adjuchas." Starrk countered. I just sighed. "Starrk, I like you and if this was a unique situation, I would agree." I changed my eyes to my outer god state.
Everyone tensed as they saw it. Something was behind those eyes. "Beyond Heaven and Earth. I alone stand amongst the top." My words sparked something in them.
The image they had, through the years we spent together, shattered. Something sinister, a deceiver who wins behind the shadows, replaced the clown.
In their eyes, they saw me now as a being that only comes once in a lifetime. My words were the height of arrogance but also humility. To them, I was saying I was the strongest, but also acknowledging the idea of someone like me to one day come into existence, but also surpass me.
Grimmjow couldn't help but feel excited, so this was Shensei's true nature. As expected of a fellow king, even though he hated trickery, he can accept the reason behind it. Shensei was strong. If he fought like him, then the battle would be over.
"So cool," Lilinyette muttered. The no-name Hollow also seemed inspired by my image.
"So, what do we?" Harribel asked. I grinned and said. "What we have done for a hundred years."
[Ost end]
{Timeskip - Thirdperson POV}
Barragan, along with his fraccion, waited for their enemy and his army to appear. Some hollows are excited to claim Shensei's territory, while others are afraid of him. However, Barragan didn't fear him, for none could compete with his power.
Even a Vasto Lorde cannot fight against time.
"Sire, we have spotted the enemies," Charlotte said while kneeling. "How many have they brought?" The God-King asked. Charlotte hesitates as if his answer was terrible. "Only five, my lord."
His answer took everyone by surprise. What kind of moron brings only four to face them. Choe Peng, Findorr, Ggio, Abirama, and Nirgge growled, their reiatsu rising.
"That fucking piece of shit! How dare he insult his majesty!" Abirama growled as he went ready to charge. "Calm down, Abirama, this is a trap." Choe Peng said before the bird hollow could fly off.
"He's right. This is a trap meant to lure us far away from Barragan-sama, but he isn't going for a pincer attack. We need to figure out his plan before we proceed."
"It does not matter," Barragan spoke. "Proceed as planned, crush them all."
{Shensei/Zhynnsy'i POV}
I knew Barragan's arrogance was going to benefit us. His fraccion was leading the charge. I took a step forward. "Shensei!" Lilinyette called out in worry. I raised my hand to stop her. "Don't worry, remember what I said? I'm strong enough."
I turned to my team. "This is sudden, but can I ask you guys to wait for a bit?" I said. "Some of you think I'm not fit to be a leader and you're right. I'm not the leader type, but I'll prove my worth to you all."
I paused as I looked back at the incoming army. "Now that I think about it, you haven't seen my weapon, right? Heh guess it's time to show you." Facing the army, I charged to the battlefield as my 'weapon' manifested.
{OFFENDER - Amal Raj - Music}
I jumped into the air and landed in the middle of the army. Dust blinded my enemies. I swung my weapon, left and right, sending bodies flying into the air. Sometimes I would punch and kick those who were close.
"What happened!?" One Hollow yelled behind me.
"It's Shensei, he's here!" another yelled in fear.
"Surround him!" Charlotte ordered.
I can sense everyone's tension. Eyes landed on my weapon, waiting for the revelation. I just grinned. Get ready for the biggest disappointment in your life.
Their jaws dropped in disbelief even Barragan had the face of 'are you shitting me?'
Was it Muramasa? Nay!
Was it Excalibur? Nay!
Was it the BFG? NAY!
My weapon was beyond recognition. It had existed only to cleanse the world. It is not the sharpest sword nor the strongest shield.
IT IS...
THE MIGHTY...
BROOM!
Yes, ladies and gents, I wield the mightiest weapon, the fucking broom! Get rekt bitches! MUAHAHAHA!
"So, who's ready to get swept off their feet?" My pun had the intended effect. Cringe effect, and it's super effective.
"SHENSEI!!!" Abirama roared in rage. "Take this seriously!"
I just howled in laughter. "If you break my broom, I'll do that." I taunted while spinning my weapon around.
All hollows growled at me. That's right, get angry bitches, cause I'm going all apocalyptic on your asses. {Boruto OST - Boruto: Naruto Next Generations - Naruto & Sasuke Vs. Jigen (Shadow Clone Fight) Ost}
Barragan's fraccion went first, attacking from all sides. A warrior would be hard-pressed to escape this pincer attack, but I wasn't normal. Blocking all six was easy. They didn't hold back either. The impact and the groundbreaking apart were a testament to their strength.
I first kicked Charlotte and Abirama away. Next, I grabbed Findorr and kneed him right in the face. I turned my attention to Nirgge and Cho Peng and swung my broom.
The two coughed up blood as my attack hit. I once again blocked an attack from Charlotte while yelling his long attack name.
"I like you," I said while throwing a knife-hand strike. My attack missed, but my fingertips grazed the body. {Dead-root-shooter} I said regarding Charlotte's attack name. Pointed roots burst out of his body. It wasn't vital, but he won't be fighting for a minute.
Findorr came rushing in and tried to kick me, but I dodged at the last second. Cho Peng took advantage of this and tried crushing me.
I moved to the side and redirected his blow. Roots came out of his arm.
Abirama and Nirgge came to fend me off. But I jumped back and started attacking the rest of the hollows. I have no mercy for anyone.
"Don't let him touch you!" Charlotte warns while removing the roots from his body. His healing factor worked wonders on the wounds I inflicted.
He rushes in and intercepts my attack while Nirgge and Findorr go behind me. "Muda, Muda." I taunted as I countered their blows.
Charlotte stole my broom and attacked me with it, but I got it back and struck him hard. I turned and saw Abirama ready to hit me with a Bala. I raised my hand as if I was going to block it.
He coughs up blood as the roots come out of his arm, and the vines force him to fire his attack on the hollows behind him.
I sensed Findorr, Nirgge, and Charlotte coming in. I vanished.
"Where is he!?" Charlotte said.
I reappeared away from them and snapped my fingers. Barragan's army howled in pain as all of them got impaled by my roots.
I spared the fraccion but subdued them with my vines.
"Heh, noobs." I taunted.
I didn't want to kill all of them. I wanted my team to shine. Sparing fraccion was a must, but the rest of the hollows were a free game.
[Ost end]
{Thirdperson POV}
Shensei's team could only look in disbelief. This man just dominated the entire battle with a broom! A fucking broom!
Who fights with a broom!?
"Heh, for a clown he's not bad." Grimmjow said.
"Indeed, but I feel like he's holding back." Harribel said.
"Duh, if he killed them all, what are we here for!?" Lilinyette said.
Starrk yawns, but his eyes are serious. "So he's dumping his work on us. Could have done a better job."
"Beyond Heaven and Earth. He alone stands at the top. I shudder to think on what can rival him." Harribel thought.
A serious Shensei. Something tempted her not to see it.
Barragan's mood plummeted, half of his army gone in a blink by the hands of a gibbering oaf. His fraccion humiliated.
Shensei turned towards him and grinned. "Well, Baggy-chan looks like your plan failed successfully." He taunted.
BOOM
A dark reiatsu flooded the entire area. Shensei just laughed as if he was watching a comedy. "Now, now Baggy-chan, if you keep looking at me like that, you might wrinkles. Oh wait, you're already dead." He cackled like a lunatic.
NO MORE!
Barragan rushes in for the kill and swings his blade, but Shensei leans away. "You missed a spot." Again, the clown joked.
The vines that held his fraccion vanished. "Hey guys, I'm going to focus on grumpy grandpa over here. So in the meantime, take care of the six stooges, alright?" Shensei yelled before running away. "Come and get me grumpy pants~"
Barragan's hatred for the clown kept rising as he chased after him.
Harribel faced Charlotte and Nirgge. Starrk and Lilinyette faced Cho Peng and Ggio. Finally, Grimmjow faces against Findorr and Abirama.
***
"So this is the mighty Grimmjow. A coward who fights behind others." Abirama growled in anger.
Grimmjow cackled. "Please, you're weaker than me. If you want to blame anyone, blame the king you followed." He said.
"Such insolence! I'll have your head!" Findorr roared in rage.
"Come and take it if you can, weakling!" Grimmjow readies his claws. "After I beat you, I'll head straight for Shensei, or Barragan, whoever comes out alive in that fight is next on my list."
"Harribel, you have chosen the wrong side of this war," Nirgge said. "Hmph, a hollow who cannot beat Shensei has no right to order me." Harribel respected her leader. The man would sacrifice himself if he had to, which earned him her respect. For a clown, he was a Hollow worthy of leadership.
"Let's do this Starrk!" Lilinyette yelled. "Don't yell, man what a pain." Starrk groaned while rubbing his ear.
"Tell me, why do you follow Shensei?" Ggio asked.
Starrk, for a moment, looked dangerous. "Do I need a reason to follow my friend?" He asked. It was the truth. The encounter with Shensei had changed their lives and turned loneliness into a thing of the past. He gave them what they always wanted companionship.
He didn't ask for anything, not loyalty or servitude. For that, Starrk wouldn't hesitate to fight against a horde of shinigami.
"Lilinyette, let's do this." Starrk yelled as his reiatsu flared in full force.
{Shensei/Zhynnsy'i POV}
I laughed as Barragan kept missing his strikes. "Stand still!" Barragan roared. I just snickered, further enraging the skull man.
The God-King brought his ax down in full force, deforming the ground as they stood. I sat on the rubble, watching the dangerous hollow pull back his weapon.
"I hope you didn't break your back with that one." I taunted.
"Shut up. Tell me, is there a point to your endless babbling?" He asked.
I just stared at him. The silence was long. None of us made any move. "ANSWER ME!" Barragan roared.
"Dude, you told me to shut up. Now you're ordering me to talk. I can't do both, man." I said.
"RAGH!" Barragan looked like he was losing his shit.
I dodged and blocked his blows. "Oh, that was a close one." I said as my head nearly got cleaved off.
I noticed a glow and realized what it was. Oh shit, this is going to suck.
"GRAN RAY CERO!" the crowned Hollow roared, firing the beam. "Finally, to think a buffoon like that could become a Vasto Lorde. What an embarrassment." He muttered, turning back to where his fraccion was fighting.
"So just putting this out there, was that 100% or not?" I asked while appearing beside him.
Barragan swiped his hand and went offensive again. This time he struck my abdomen and fired another cero.
"Hmph, the fool should have taken his chance." He said while waving his hand. "How disgusting."
"Who's the fool?" I said, revealing myself unharmed.
I can see the gears inside his head. I knew about his time powers, so he must wonder how I'm still alive.
"How?" He asked.
Playing dumb with his question, I asked what he meant.
"HOW ARE YOU ALIVE?" He roared.
"I'm strong enough." My answer angers him, and I'm enjoying this too much.
"Impossible. Nothing can compete with time. Not even the strongest can conquer it."
"There is, there is a way to beat time. It's just impossible to reach it. Those who reach this impossible, always say this."
He growled. "What is it?" He asked.
I grinned as my 'reiatsu' raised to the point it's like a pillar. Barragan released his reiatsu to fight me off.
I calmly approached my enemy like an old friend.
"Time is nothing, but a construct made by the weak." I said.
Barragan can only look at me in fear and shock. But it wasn't my avatar he was seeing. My reiatsu had taken the form of my true self.
