DeadWater - Profile

It's probably been a minute since you've read bleach, but he is this ridiculously lethal. On the top ten people you don't want to fight in bleach all of their genius characters are up there!

You will pay for this fight, that I started with you!

Dragons exist in the world of Bleach, and yes soul reapers are aware of them.

I understand what you're saying but I was viewing this through the lens of ninja are paranoid by nature, So even if they didn't think this could happen to them they still would be preparing for it. A just in case scenario.

What I find surprising is that Nobody in a position of leadership within The Village seems to be Afraid of how they're actions are coming across to The Other clans

"It wasn't often I found myself face to face with these situations"

Gotta say I'm impressed because ending a fight early is now an accomplishment instead of common sense.

While it's not a bad chapter I was hoping for a more epic curb stomp! like this

Exactly and both parties knew he wasn't strong enough and thus no threat. Zerefs the perfect enemy to show you just how strong your foes can be with no actually harm to you but seeing as Irene had already served that purpose this was unnecessary.

Not saying it wasn't scary just that objectively speaking the level of danger for him and the nearby members of fairy tail were low compared to his other encounters and this is something he knows, being a self-insert and all. having the capacity do something isn't scary nearly as scary as having the will to do it.

A last Boss you know isn't gonna smush you cause he wants you to get stronger like in those unescapable cut scenes.

That makes no sense at all. He had already met Irene Belserion who is insane and was actively considering killing him compared to Zeref who actually isn't all evil and just wants to die, so sure while one is stronger than the other the amount of danger, he was in was progressively worse with Ezra's mother. Meaning he shouldn't be all "Oh no time to double down on training because the world just gave me a wakeup call!" he had already had that check yourself moment way in the past so this really serves no purpose and is thus redundant.

This is the Hight of redundancy, the MC was already well aware he was weak and needed strength, half of the characters he's already met have helped prove this, there was no real point to have Zeref come flex on him like this.

Apologize for writing this chapter!!!
