Chapter 147 - Chapter 149

Name:A New Path Author:Vallori
Vash landed gracefully on one of the smaller houses in the centre of town. His gaze scanned the people walking down on the big main street that stretched through the entire city. He was still smiling, and that smile only grew larger when he laid eyes on his targets.

"Found you" He whispered as he watched the people in masks walking down on the street. Their masks were pure white with a tiny yellow sun above the right eye. They had an aura of supremacy around them, and that coupled with their tall heights was the reason why the people on the streets were avoiding them.

Toshiro and Lubbock appeared like two ghosts beside Vash. Lubbock was smiling similar to Vash, and he was also longing for a good fight. Toshiro, on the other hand, felt no excitement toward the actual fighting. His life's goal was to destroy the World Government, so every time he could mess something up for them he would do it without question.

"You guys ready?" Vash asked and looked at the two brothers. And they both nodded with determination and confidence.

"Okay then" Vash made a grabbing motion with his hand and his gun appeared from thin air. He aimed it at the group with the sun masks on them. And after taking aim, Vash pulled the trigger and shot the bullet that served as the signal to start the fighting. A pure silver bullet left the barrel of the gun and travelled in under a second the distance between the two groups. Down among the masked individuals, one of them looked up and followed it by covering his entire arm in haki. He then quickly used that same arm to block the bullet. And all of this happened in less than a second.

The government agent that blocked Vash's bullet was forced to take two steps back after being hit. "You okay?" Another one of the agents asked with little emotion in his voice.

"Yeah! A simple miscalculation of the force behind the bullet. It won't happen again." The male agent said to the female agent that asked him.

"Three of them. The Traitor, The slaughterer, and the gun maniac. Target is nowhere in sight." Said another one of the agents while staring at the three commanders. He slowly placed his hand over the golden sheath hanging by his waist.

"Where is your captain, Vash?" The agent with the golden sheath asked.

"Cap'n doesn't wanna see you guys right now, so you are gonna have to make do with us," Vash said and smiled brightly.

The agent's eyes narrowed slightly and he gripped his sword firmly, "I see" He said and drew his sword with a speed few would be able to follow. An almost visible slash shot out from the sword and sliced the house they stood on in half. Vash, Toshiro, and Lubbock jumped away just in time to avoid the vertical slash that the agent sent out to cut the house with.

The three of them landed around the agents with Vash now standing faced with two of them and the same for Toshiro. Lubbock on the other hand only had one opponent. The civilians in the area had already escaped far away so the street was completely empty except the agents and the commanders.

"Your captain made a big mistake showing himself here. This is the day when the Gotei gets to experience the might of the Light unit. So say your silent goodbyes to your crew because you will never see any of them again." Once again the golden sword left the sheath of its master and another flying sword slash attacked Vash head-on. Vash jumped slightly to the side to avoid the attack and at the same time, he fired two bullets from his gun. One aimed at the wielder of the golden sword and the other aimed at the agent standing next to him.

By the time the sword slash passed Vash, the two agents had both dodged the bullets. The slash cut apart the house behind Vash, and he looked back and whistled in amusement.

"Impressive skills. But there is no mistake here. You haven't been able to locate any of us for fourteen years, but now suddenly out of nowhere, we show up in Dressrosa. Do you really think any of this was a mistake?" Vash looked at the two agents. The one with the golden sword was slightly shorter the other one. But both of them wore the same white suit and white coat with the white sun mask on. The only thing that differentiated them was the number on the back of their hands. The golden sword agent had the number "One" and the other one had "Three".

"No plan is without faults. Your biggest mistake was to show yourself. That mistake will be the death of you." The agent with the number Three on his hand suddenly jumped towards Vash with his entire body covered in dense and powerful armament haki.

"Guess this means no more talking!" Vash raised his gun and fired at him, but the giant man that easily exceeded three meters in height wasn't affected by the bullets as they simply bounced off his haki infused skin.

Vash smiled at this and covered his fist in haki and clashed with the giant agent. Because of the forward momentum that the agent had, Vash was pushed back. The agent moved again toward Vash. But this time Vash performed a small dash backwards to increase the distance between them. He took aim again and shot the agent and the bullet had doubled in speed this time, and much to the shock of both agent One and Three, the penetration power had also doubled. The bullet lodged itself into the shoulder of agent number Three and at the same time pushed him back a few meters.

"Okay, playtimes over!" Vash looked over at Toshiro and Lubbock and noticed that they were also mostly playing with the other agents to properly test their strength. He looked back over at the agent with the golden sword. "Have you guys ever seen an unstoppable force? If not, let me show you what that looks like!" He disappeared and reappeared in front of agent Three and buried his fist in his stomach, and he hit with enough force to make the agent vomit out a mouthful of blood. But he gritted his teeth and covered his head in haki and went to headbutt Vash. Unfortunately, his headbutt was stopped halfway through by Vash's gun. Vash smiled while holding the barrel of his gun right on the agent's forehead, "Cya, big guy!" Vash pulled the trigger and he blew the agents head off. Blood splattered everywhere but Vash wasn't bothered by the sight of this amount of blood.

"Don't you care about your comrade?" Vash said and looked over at agent number One that looked at this scene with apathetic eyes. He met Vash's gaze and simply shrugged his shoulders at the question.

"No, I don't. He was a brainless tool made for war. His death proved we just wasted money making him." He put his hand on his sword and drew it very slowly.

"A bit harsh, don't you think so?" Vash wiped off some blood from his gun while observing the sword that the agent held in his hand.

"I think that's enough talking. I don't have all day!" Agent number One said without a shred of emotion on his face.

"Killing you will be fun!" Vash said and fired a shot at the agent. His bullet was cut in two by the agent in one smooth action.

"Fun is overrated. Killing you is a necessity." Agent number One dashed toward Vash, destroying the ground from where he took off.

"Let's go!" Vash also took off against agent number One.
