Skirt-Flipping Maniac: Whoa!
Doujin Artist: Aizen's really full of himself, huh!
Soul Society Villain: It's not arrogance. He just thinks he's figured out Anran's personality. What he doesn't know is, Anran is acting exactly how he wants to be seen.
Amegakure Village's Angel: You only saw what I wanted you to see. That's what we call the information cocoon.
Curly-haired Guy: He got played hard. (emoji: facepalm)
This is an Actor: That's because I know him well enough. I know exactly what kind of person will make him lower his guard.
Aizen is confident, but he's also careful and sharp. He has many hobbies, and one of them is studying people.
He doesn't just judge based on appearances. He watches in detail—from how someone dresses to their posture, even the tiniest facial expressions. Nothing escapes his eyes.
If not, he wouldn't be staring at footage of Uchiha Madara for hours on end.
And it's this level of observation that lets Aizen predict people's personalities with scary accuracy. Honestly, no one in Soul Society can fake it in front of him.
No one… except for Uchiha Madara, who holds Aizen's memories and now goes by Anran.
Scarlet Lotus Fairy: This is too targeted. Poor Aizen—he just had bad luck running into An Gongzi.
Pretty Boy from Skull Island: Lati learned martial arts! Lati is so happy now!
On Skull Island—
Jingang's body flashed from place to place, then leaped up and landed on a cliff several dozen meters tall.
He raised both arms and began practicing a set of ancient Tomb Sect moves in the air, following the flow he memorized in his mind. Despite his huge size, his movements were unexpectedly graceful, and he even gave off a sense of calm and clarity.
At the final move, Jingang raised his right fist and swung into the air. With a loud *boom*, the ground in the distance suddenly cracked with a giant fist-shaped mark.
Stunned.
Everyone in the primitive tribe's lookout post clearly saw what just happened—they all stood there with their mouths wide open, completely shocked.
The American war veteran living among them stared in disbelief and blurted out, "Whatfuck?!"
Doujin Artist: Wait... King Kong can learn martial arts now? This style is getting seriously weird.
Skirt-Flipping Maniac: The real MVP is the chat group rules. They're basically all-powerful. Without it, even understanding the basics of internal energy channels would be insanely hard.
Curly-haired Guy: Be more honest—we'd never understand it at all!
Machete Girl: I only half get it, but Chinese culture is seriously amazing. Even a short line can carry really deep meaning.
Doujin Artist: And those ancient Chinese outfits look awesome. That Taoist robe Mouchou was wearing? So cool!
This is an Actor: Yeah, the way she pulled out her gun looked cool too.
Doujin Artist: Pfft, I just imagined that scene! Mouchou pulling a gun out of nowhere! Everyone totally stunned, modern weapons laying down the law!
Skirt-Flipping Maniac: Times have changed, my friend.
Soul Society Villain: Too bad I missed all the fun.
Scarlet Lotus Fairy: Don't worry. We've got a martial arts tournament coming up here. I'll stream it when it happens.
Doujin Artist: A martial arts tournament, huh? Bet we'll see some real pros.
Scarlet Lotus Fairy: Yeah, this one should be way bigger than the one in *Return of the Condor Heroes*. At this point, the stuff I've done in this world is messing with the Song Dynasty's royal interests. They're gonna throw everything they've got at me.
Mouchou's been up to some serious business lately.
Honestly, she's not even a regular martial artist anymore—she's basically a rebel.
First, she took down the corrupt county magistrate at the foot of Mount Zhongnan, then took over the county office.
Then, using the county as her base, she pushed for women's liberation, ended the land serf system, and stripped scholars of their special status. That hit the Song Dynasty's power structure right where it hurt.
The Emperor was furious when he heard, and nearly sent in the army to crush her.
But one minister stepped in, saying she's just a rogue from the martial world—no need to go overboard. Let people from the martial world handle their own.
The Emperor loved that idea. And just like that, a wild martial arts tournament was set in motion.
Skirt-Flipping Maniac: But hey, this could be Mouchou's big break!
Scarlet Lotus Fairy: Exactly. I'm planning to take control of the martial world with one move. Then I'll lead the major sects and overthrow the government.
This is an Actor: Nice. I like that plan.
Curly-haired Guy: Whoa, Mouchou-chan's actually going full revolution, huh?
Doujin Artist: Wait—Gin-san, you actually know the term "feudalism"? That's... kinda surprising!
Curly-haired Guy: What's that supposed to mean? I don't like it. Take it back!
Wig Guy: Hey, don't underestimate us! We've all been inspired by the president's brilliant ideas. We hate rotten feudal rule just as much as anyone!
Curly-haired Guy: You're saying all that high-minded stuff, but if you weren't in a dress right now, I might've actually believed we were on the same side!
Amegakure Village's Angel: Mouchou, need any help?
Scarlet Lotus Fairy: Probably not, but I'll ask if I do.
Machete Girl: Alert—my intruder radar just picked something up!
This is an Actor: Oh? Looks like they're finally showing up.
Skirt-Flipping Maniac: Is it those ghost things again?
Machete Girl: Nope. [Image]
When they opened the image, what they saw was a giant humanoid monster, over ten meters tall, standing right in the middle of the street.
Its body and torso were made up of pale, lifeless human corpses, with black-red blood oozing from the surface. It looked horrifying beyond words.
Doujin Artist: What the... is this some kind of stitched-together monster?!
