Chapter 942 Merciless

Chapter 942 Merciless

After Angra Mainyu's defeat, Issei and Gogmagog came flying in to help Vali and Fenrir. As soon as they arrived, they saw Vali's armor in pieces as he tried to compress Hades' attack but only to a minimum effect. Fenrir, on the other hand, has had their movements sealed by trapping spells.

"I see... Angra Mainyu was defeated and you came back even more powerful than before." Hades commented at him.

Vali retreated for a bit before smirking at him, "This guy is a joke of existence. You'd actually have a better chance of defeating him if you put 10,000 naked beautiful women in front of him."

Issei stopped and thought about it for a moment before shivering from such 'horror', "Y-you might be right... I can't imagine winning against that."

Hades didn't know whether to laugh or grimace at such a stupid situation that was entirely plausible.

Vali was about to deploy his 'Satan Lucifer Smasher' with Issei and Gogmagog limiting Hades' movements, but before he could do so, a burst of unknown aura erupted from the other side of the temple and all of them were already familiar with a similar aura, "Who came here? That's not Kisuke Urahara or Yoruichi Shihouin." Vali immediately asked.

"It's Kiryuu...", answered Issei, "It looks like she learned directly from them."

Hades' ghostly eyes also darted towards the direction they were looking in and had a bad premonition coming over to him, along with regret, 'I really shouldn't have made him an enemy.'

And while they were distracted, numerous Teleportation Magic Circle behind Issei, Vali, Gogmagog, and Fenrir, revealing the entirety of the DxD Team. They had already finished cleaning up the Alliance of Hell's army and the only one left standing was Hades.

'It's my loss, huh...' Hades concluded, 'But I've already done my job.'

The new arrivals, however, couldn't put all their attention on Hades because of the aura that Aika was releasing, and only after Rias called them to focus did they properly face the Lord of the Realm of the Dead.

With the currently known strongest force in the world gathered in front of him, Hades could only laugh, "Kukuku... Wonderful... I'm truly honored to face all of you at the same time."

Dulio, the leader of DxD, stepped forward with his 10 white wings spread out, "I see that you are still very confident, Hades. But can you really laugh at this situation?"

"Kukuku... Of course." Hades held his staff with both of his hands and channeled his Divine Power into it, "After all, this is the most ideal situation."

Everyone frowned at his words and thought of how this could be the ideal situation for him. But soon, everyone received their answer, "Rias! I just received an SOS from the Alliance! It seems that Heaven is currently under attack and in need of urgent reinforcements!"

Rossweisse was just trying to send a message to authorities that the situation was already under control but found that she couldn't go through. After some tinkering with Security Magic, the connection was re-established and the first thing she received was an SOS from an ally.

Kisuke didn't move from his position and just continued pointing his finger at Hades who was already embedded on the rock and kept sending him devastating Ceros. With each blast, Hades would be buried deeper in the rocks while his bones continued cracking and his robes lost their purpose.

Although Hades had already stopped moving, Kisuke kept on going which made the others pity the God of the Dead, "K-Kisuke... Isn't that enough? He can't fight anymore."

Nevertheless, Kisuke pretended to be deaf in front of Issei's words and even sped up the process of recharging the Cero.

"Kisuke! Enough, please! He's not a threat anymore!" Issei grabbed his shoulder and pleaded with him.

Since Kisuke couldn't ignore him anymore, he instead returned a question, "Is there a point in letting him live?"

Issei and the rest finally got a full taste of how cold Kisuke could actually be.

As their leader, he had to step in so Dulio said, "Can you please let him go? The Alliance will be taking care of him. He still has value within the political sphere of the Mythologies around the world."

Still as cold as ever, Kisuke replied, "First, I'm not a member of your team. Second, I couldn't care less since I can't see the value in that myself."

Dulio and Issei were at loss on how they could convince Kisuke and the latter was even about to use force to stop him.

But alas, although Hades was about to perish from continuous blasts of destructive power, Kisuke couldn't do what he wanted as a Goddess materialized in front of Hades and started blocking Kisuke's attacks.

After a few more tries, Kisuke finally stopped and stared at the brown haired Goddess that was oozing with Divine Power. Kisuke squinted his eyes at the Goddess, recalling the records he had memorized, and said, "Persephone-san, is it? Are you here to rescue your husband? Unfortunately, I have no intention of sparing him."

Hearing Kisuke's words, Hades forced himself to look up to see the familiar back, "...Dear... You have nothing to do with this. Get out of the way. Kisuke Urahara, she's sinless so leave her alone."

But Persephone ignored him and returned Kisuke's stare, "I'd like to negotiate."

Kisuke kept his arm raised but eventually brought it down after careful consideration and some guesses as to why she would appear in front of him now with the confidence of striking a deal, "You've met Athena, I assume?"

Persephone nodded in affirmation, "Indeed and I promise you that you won't be disappointed. But before that..." her head turned in a certain direction, "I first would like you to stop your rampaging swordswoman and save my good friend."

Kisuke also turned towards the direction she was looking and thought, 'Looks like she really went into an 'Outrage'. Even though she's a Shinigami, her Zanpakuto spirits are still true Dragons.'
