Gabriel stopped being horny for one second, his gaze on the bugs Soul Society were carrying... with a light snap of his fingers, they were erased from existence.
Pov change
Shunsui watched as the device Kisuke had made just vanished like that. Hm, it seemed like Gabriel could sense that shit...
Meanwhile, somewhere in Soul Society, Kisuke suddenly felt weak. Falling to his knees, his spiritual pressure dropped rapidly—from captain level, to lieutenant, then seated officer—falling until it reached basic Shinigami level.
Mayuri noticed this and began some light testing. From the look of it... Kisuke Saketsu's chain had been erased from existence.
The man just smiled.
"Seems like he didn't like that," Kisuke said, realizing how weak he had become. From how his stuff was erased, it was close to his heart too. If Gabriel wanted to, Kisuke could have been put on a pack.
However, he wasn't... that was a warning shot. Noted. His next shot would be his last.
{...Dance for me, puppet...}
Luxi had a smile on its face. Being sealed in Gabriel wasn't that fun, and trying to get into his kids was proving hard, as the man apparently was a good father. What kind of bullshit was that?
So the next best thing was getting this man to do it. It would even help him, just like he had used the bald monk. Kisuke would be used for this beast plan.
Now back unto the tournament.
To begin the tournament, the first match would be between two of the lower Sins: Gula Bestia, the Lesser Sin of Gluttony, and Caeloro Fortuna, the newly appointed Lesser Sin of Greed.
Little was known about the new Lesser Sin of Greed, apart from the fact he had fully defeated the previous lesser sin and was very strong. Nothing was known about his power, as his last fight ended rather quickly.
Facing him was Gula, a brute in every sense of the word—massive, musclebound, and not exactly known for strategy. He sneered at Caeloro from across the arena, voice booming.
"You look weak, little gambler. I'll crush you in one bite."
Caeloro only grinned, leaning back lazily, hands in his pockets.
"Try it, beastie. Let's make this fun."
As the signal rang, Gula wasted no time. He scooped up a handful of sand from the arena floor and ate it, his muscles swelling grotesquely as his body pulsed with raw power. He felt his muscles rack up with power, steam coming out of his body as he rushed at Caeloro at full speed. For someone so heavy, his flash steps were only a level behind Yoruichi... Shit wasn't looking too good.
Caeloro jumped away, avoiding the attack and landing gracefully away from the beast. Turning his head around, he watched as the beast's fist utterly reduced the arena wall to dust before deleting it.
...Cool.
As the man watched the attack do so much damage, he had a smile on his face, almost getting erect from it.
"Oh, this is fun... I'm fucking throbbing at this," he said with excitement on his face. Yes... this was a fight, yes, he was fully immersed in the thrill of the battle—don't question it.
A phantom roulette wheel materialized in the sky above them, glowing with neon hellfire. Slot machines, dice, and cards flickered into existence, floating lazily around him as the domain expanded.
"Jackpot Domain – Casino del Infierno."
The wheel spun, clicking rhythmically before landing on a jackpot—of course. A triumphant ding! echoed through the arena as Caeloro's body pulsed with radiant energy.
"Oh... fuck... I'm gonna bust..." He had a high expression on his face as he felt the bliss of this all. This was good. He was the kind of guy who would risk everything for the thrill.
Gula roared again, stomping the ground hard enough to send a shockwave racing toward him, but Caeloro sidestepped effortlessly, as if the world itself bent to his will. Rocks that should've hit him missed by inches; debris that could've crushed him instead formed convenient stepping stones beneath his feet.
"Come on, big guy," he taunted, smirking as the neon light reflected in his eyes. "Let's see how much you can eat before I cash out."
Gula lunged again, faster this time—but his claws scraped nothing but air. Caeloro ducked, twisted, and kicked upward in a blur.
"High Roller's Combo – Royal Flush Barrage!"
As his kick landed, a card could be seen, ♠, while in the air, he would Sonido on top of the beast before kicking it down, ♥. He would then appear beneath him before kneeling him in the face, ♣.
Cocking his fist back, he slammed a powerful fist into the beast, ♦, and to end his combo, he fired a CERO. As he did, the Joker card appeared, then detonated in a burst of neon cards and dice. The explosion sent Gula crashing back, smoke and dust rising as the crowd roared.
But Gula wasn't down. He pushed himself up, roaring again, veins bulging as his body grew even larger—hungrier.
"You can take a beating, huh..." Gabriel would create a hand in front of his kids... all of them.
Gula charged with a furious roar, ripping Caeloro's arm off at a speed no fat man should possess—faster than Yoruichi in thunder god mode. Gula then proceeded to eat the arm, and as he did, all his wounds healed, as if he had gained a trait from Caeloro.
Caeloro raised a single coin, flipping it with a smirk.
"Greed's Curse – Double or Nothing!"
The coin spun midair, flashing between light and dark as the roulette wheel began spinning again, faster and faster.
The coin landed—jackpot.
Caeloro's entire form erupted with power, Reiryoku flaring skyward in a pillar of gold and crimson. His aura alone distorted the air. For the next four minutes and eleven seconds, he was untouchable—immortal.
He looked at the stunned Gula and laughed, voice echoing across the arena.
"Let's make this fun... let's see if you can eat me faster than I can heal, big guy."
Gula charged with a furious roar—
—and Caeloro vanished from sight, the neon glow of his casino blazing brighter as the fight truly began.
The fight that proceeded couldn't really be called a fight. Gula would be ripping Caeloro's limbs and eating them, gaining strength, while Caeloro would not dodge, as if dodging wasn't in his vocabulary. He fought with a smile on his face, sometimes having his head nearly chomped off, but he didn't care, just kept moving.
At some point, Gula could be seen with veins bulging all around his body.
"Full..." the beast said, to which Caeloro smiled.
"Come on, big guy... eat more." Caeloro forcefully pushed all of his energy into the big guy, force-feeding him so much energy.
Until...
KABOOM
As the smoke vanished, Caeloro could be seen, practically naked... his clothes had been cut off, and he was just smiling... but ass naked... hard as a goddamn rock... 10 inches of hollow meat just out for the world to see.
"Oh... this is fun" He seemed so happy... He liked this.
A/N: It took so long to upload. I have my reasons. I had three midterms: Physics, Calculus, and Chemistry (not counting Computer Science or French since those were easy).
All this to say: I got rawdogged, had to focus on school for a while since my grades were starting to look like my age... and I'm under 30.
Shit was bad... still is. Quiz, tests, and work—triple teamed—and I couldn't do shit about it. That's the reason behind my absence. Didn't even have time to stack chapters for the Aizen story; only one chapter was done before school hit me like a truck.
Yes, I will still be busy, but I'll try—key word: try—to upload one chapter a week.
Unless you all want me to release my draft for the One Piece story, which currently has like 120 chapters in draft form.
