Chapter 1781 Saitama regains his humanity and emotions, Aizen enters the realm of rules.
The world of One Punch Man.
Saitama looked at the rewards in the chat group and scratched his head.
"Can this really turn me back into a normal person?"
Although he should be confident about the rewards from the chat group, it was his first time participating in a transmigrator mission, and he had never received the rewards for recycling a [rule-level item] before.
In addition, the reward could help him regain his long-lost hair, so he was a little nervous for a moment.
He took a deep breath.
"Chat group, claim your reward."
"Ding, group member [Bald Cape Hero] has been detected claiming a reward. Initiating fusion."
As the chat group's voice rang out, a beam of light emerged from the void and rained down on him.
The first thing to change was the top of his head.
Strands of jet-black hair sprouted from the scalp like bamboo shoots after a spring rain, quickly covering the entire top of the head. The thick black hair swayed gently in the wind, soft and full of life.
Saitama was stunned. He reached out and touched his hair, the texture of which was unbelievably real.
"I have hair? I have hair!"
His voice trembled slightly, but the changes went far beyond that.
Suddenly, Saitama clutched his chest as a long-lost, almost forgotten feeling awakened within him—a torrent of emotions.
Joy, pain, loss, regret, happiness.
Although he still possessed human emotions after breaking his limiter, albeit extremely dull and weak ones, the difference between then and now was so great that Saitama doubted whether he had any emotions at all before.
The surging emotions, the feeling that was both strange and familiar, were something he had never imagined before.
"Is this how I used to feel?"
Saitama even felt his eyes redden slightly.
He looked up at the sky, the shapes of the clouds reminding him of cotton candy he'd seen as a child; the touch of the breeze on his cheek brought back memories of the gentle caresses of his family during his childhood; and the aroma of fried chicken wafting from afar whetted his appetite.
Everything ordinary became so vibrant at this moment.
However, the world-destroying power within Saitama remained unaffected and continued to increase rapidly, even faster than before.
However, bound by some higher-level rules, with every heartbeat and every breath, one can feel the subtle balance between power and humanity.
He tried clenching his fist.
"boom!"
The deafening roar of the air being crushed echoed through the sky; although his strength was slightly greater than before, it was a natural improvement, but the feeling when he threw the punch was completely different.
In the past, although his punches were made out of his own will, they were just simple movements; but now, he can clearly feel the sensation of his fist tearing through the air, hear the echo of the sonic boom vibrating on his eardrums, and even experience the exhilarating pleasure of releasing power!
Yes, it's mainly about the pleasure.
Previously, only those who fought to the very end with him and were worthy of his full effort could give him this feeling. He never expected that after his emotions recovered, he could feel such excitement just by clenching his fist.
Is this what he felt when he was just an ordinary person?
Saitama's lips unconsciously curled up into a smile.
He turned and walked toward the supermarket, his steps much lighter than before.
As he passed by the park, he stopped and watched the children running and playing on the grass, the sunlight shining on them, and their laughter echoing in the air.
What a beautiful scene!
Saitama saw this scene reflected in his eyes, and a long-lost warmth welled up in his heart.
However, he also knew that this state would not last forever; as his power continued to grow, his emotions would eventually peel away again, and his hair would fall out again.
But at the moment.
"There should be a salmon special today, right?"
He hummed a little tune and walked briskly towards the supermarket.
Sunlight shone on his black hair, casting a soft halo around it.
Human emotions shone so brightly at this moment.
in the chat group.
An ordinary group owner: "Ichigo Kurosaki and the Marquis are fighting, Shendu and Loki are fighting."
An ordinary group admin: "I don't know who will win or lose in the end."
Su Yunqing said in the chat group.
After receiving his reward, Kurosaki Ichigo logged back in and challenged the Marquis to a duel, saying he wanted to see if he could easily defeat the Marquis now. The Marquis naturally refused to accept this, and the two began to fight.
Needless to say, Shendu and Loki had already agreed to fight.
Loki felt that he was stronger than Shendu, but Shendu did not think so, and then the two started fighting.
With both sides having entered the realm of the rules, it's really hard to say who will win or lose.
Himouto! Umaru-chan: "If it's Ichigo Kurosaki versus the Marquis, Ichigo Kurosaki should win, right?"
Himouto! Umaru-chan: "After all, after Ichigo Kurosaki obtained the power of the Soul King, his strength was no weaker than that of the Marquis. It's just that neither of them could do anything to the other."
Himouto! Umaru-chan: "Now that he's received the mission reward, his strength should be above that of a Marquis, right?"
Umaru wasn't sure who would win the fight between Shendu and Loki. She felt that Shendu and Loki were about the same strength and either of them had a chance of winning. However, between Ichigo Kurosaki and the Marquis, she thought Ichigo Kurosaki had a higher chance of winning.
After all, before this time traveler mission, Kurosaki Ichigo's strength was already no weaker than that of a Marquis. Now that he has received the mission rewards, he should be above the Marquis.
After all, it is a [rule-level item] of the Heavens level. Even if we focus on potential, its strength will definitely be improved.
Boil Daigo into soup: "While that makes sense, this time Kurosaki Ichigo's reward, [Boundless Evolution], focuses more on potential. In terms of strength, there won't be a situation where the fusion ability significantly increases."
Boil Daigo into soup: "Even if he has reached the limit in a certain aspect and breaks through that limit through [Boundless Evolution], the improvement wouldn't be too great. At least it wouldn't be possible for him to widen the gap with the Marquis and defeat him."
The strong individuals in the chat group, those whose strength reaches the Star Explosion level, basically possess abilities that grant them strong immortality. Even if they have specific abilities to counter them, they are very difficult to kill.
Unless you step into the realm of rules, it's normally very difficult to win.
Even Madara Uchiha, whose strength far surpassed that of Marquis Voban, could not easily win a battle against a marquis.
If Kurosaki Ichigo's reward focused on enhancing strength, and could significantly boost his power after fusion, then his strength would definitely be greater than that of a Marquis. However, his reward, [Boundless Evolution], is specifically designed to target potential.
Although its abilities are very strong and overpowered, it's impossible for it to experience a significant increase in power in a short period of time.
In this situation, Ichigo Kurosaki's strength is almost indistinguishable from that of a Marquis.
Winning is not impossible, but a draw is more likely than winning.
The ordinary group owner: "That's true."
An ordinary group owner said: "However, I still favor Ichigo Kurosaki more, after all, his omniscience and omnipotence are truly a bug."
An ordinary group owner commented: "It just doesn't quite match Ichigo Kurosaki himself."
After all, Ichigo Kurosaki is a numerical monster. Although he became a super-versatile numerical monster who excels in everything because of the Soul King, he is still a numerical monster. He is more used to fighting in the past than like Yhwach, who also possesses omniscience and omnipotence.
Forget all that nonsense, he just went up and unleashed a Crescent Moon Slash.
It's somewhat of a waste to have omniscience and omnipotence on him.
Even so, being omniscient and omnipotent is still being omniscient and omnipotent, and the sheer power of his abilities remains unaffected.
Although the Marquis's abilities are powerful, she still believes that Ichigo Kurosaki can win if he uses them well.
An ordinary group owner said: "Speaking of which, Ichigo Kurosaki's reward fusion is over. I wonder how the others are doing."
An ordinary group owner said, "Moreover, compared to Ichigo Kurosaki, I'm more curious about Aizen's current strength."
An ordinary group owner said, "Based on the description of his abilities, he should have entered the rule-level realm after fusing the rewards, right?"
Su Yunqing still remembered the description of Aizen's reward in the chat group.
The Great Dream True Reality: Mirror Realm of Emptiness is essentially the manifestation of the laws of dreams. It is an extension of Aizen's will and spiritual pressure, forming a dreamlike power that can distort reality and weave destiny.
Not only can it use its own spiritual pressure as a medium to transform the space within its coverage area into a "dream," defining all matter, energy, and rules within that area, but it can also layer the real and the virtual, freely traversing or folding layers, so that attacks penetrate its body but fall into the illusion.
What is reality? When all beings are drunk, the one who is awake is deluded.
Just by looking at the description of the ability, one can imagine how powerful it is.
The Fifth Division Captain said, "I've only just entered the realm of rules. In terms of strength, I'm far inferior to Saint Lord and Loki."
After seeing Su Yunqing's words, Aizen smiled and replied in the chat group.
This is not a disguise.
Even though both tasks involve a 1% completion rate, his reward is not more valuable than those of Riku and Ichigo Kurosaki.
It was only because his understanding of "reality and illusion" had already touched the boundaries of the rules before he participated in the time traveler mission that the rewards in the chat group were based on this, allowing him to step into the realm of rules.
He is now like the Holy Lord who broke through the rule realm after receiving the task reward from the chat group. He has an almost absolute crushing power over opponents below the rule level, but he can by no means be called powerful among those of the same level.
The Holy Lord and Loki did indeed go before him.
Although these were his true feelings, Su Yunqing's attitude was somewhat hesitant, or even more than just hesitant.
An ordinary group admin: "Is that so?"
An ordinary group admin: "Are you sure they're not as good as Shendu and Loki?"
An ordinary group owner: "I find this so unbelievable."
An ordinary group admin said: "They're not here right now, so you don't need to give them face."
After a brief hesitation, Su Yunqing expressed disbelief in Aizen's words, believing that Aizen's strength should be above that of Shendu and Loki.
The reason he is said to be inferior to them is likely because he is hiding himself as he has done in the past, or perhaps he is saving face for Shendu and Loki, so as to avoid them coming after him to fight and thus avoid trouble.
Fifth Division Captain: "."
Fifth Division Captain: "Although the reward for the [Rules-level Items] of the Heavenly Realm is only 1% of the mission's reward, the greatest value that [Great Dream True Realm - Mirror Realm of Emptiness] gives me is its guidance on my future path."
Fifth Division Captain: "It's not about significantly increasing my strength."
The Fifth Division Captain: "After the initial fusion, being able to step into the realm of rules is already a testament to the power of the ability itself. The only thing we need to do is to further develop our abilities and go further on the path we have chosen."
Aizen was somewhat speechless.
Although the reward is a [rule-level item] of the Heavens level, the rewards given by the chat group often focus more on potential than on the improvement of strength.
Even "enhancement" involves significantly improving strength while also enhancing potential.
Even if the level of 【Great Dream True Reality·Empty Image Mirror Realm】 is high, it is already difficult for him to step into the realm of rules after the initial fusion. How could he be allowed to go deeper into this path on the basis of improvement?
Further in-depth understanding is something he needs to figure out for himself.
The ordinary group owner said, "Does that mean you're currently in a phase of rapid power improvement, and once you develop [Great Dream True Reality - Mirror Realm of Emptiness], your power will increase even faster?"
An ordinary group owner: "Like the Marquis whose [Godslayer Rank] was just upgraded?"
An ordinary group owner said, "In that case, even if you are not as strong as Shendu and Loki now, you may not be as strong as them later."
Su Yunqing understood what Ai Ran meant.
He has only achieved initial fusion so far. Although his strength has increased significantly, he is still some distance from Shendu and Loki. However, the period following the initial fusion will be a time of rapid increase in strength. Once this period ends, his strength will surpass that of Shendu and Loki.
Therefore, if we calculate it, Aizen's strength is still above that of Shendu and Loki, it just takes some time.
Fifth Division Captain: "."
Is that what he meant? No, that's not what he meant at all!
Don't misunderstand him!
The richest man in the city said: "It's a rule-based field. I'm really curious to see what it's like."
The richest man in the lighthouse said: "Although the battle between the Holy Lord and Morgana showed some of his power, it was mostly destructive power, and his true strength was not apparent."
The richest man in the lighthouse: "@Fifth Squad Captain, shall we try it out in the virtual battle arena?"
Tony was curious about the power that came with stepping into the realm of rules.
Although Shendu and Morgana had fought before, and the memory copies in the virtual battle arena were recorded in great detail, it wasn't a personal experience. Just watching made it difficult to truly feel the power behind that force.
Since Aizen has also stepped into the realm of rules, he felt that he could also give it a try, at least to see what the so-called "realm of rules" was really like.
Fifth Division Captain: "Since it's your request, then so be it."
