Chapter 628 628: Kaito Shirogane, the Artificial Creation

Boom!

The crimson light directly engulfed Kaito Shirogane.

Kaito Shirogane felt the scene before his eyes rapidly twisting. The bizarre and motley images reminded him that this was absolutely not reality, or rather, it was not reality in its normal state.

Kaito Shirogane instinctively checked the Space prompts.

[You have been affected by Chaos Magic]

A large number of prompts scrolled past, but before Kaito Shirogane's eyes, those prompts were gradually erased and subsequently vanished.

Kaito Shirogane raised his eyes; the world had completely changed its appearance.

He appeared on a scenic wilderness. The gentle breeze wasn't warm, the sound of ocean waves could be faintly heard. Looking back, the verdant green prairie was dotted with flowers of various colors.

Further away, on a cliff above the prairie, a snow-white house stood like a manor overlooking the cliff.

Just looking at this scenery, Kaito Shirogane seemed to be able to perceive the mood of the master of this world.

More footsteps rang out. Kaito Shirogane turned his head and saw Captain America Steve, Black Widow, and the others appearing one by one. These people completely failed to notice the bizarre anomaly of suddenly appearing here.

Everyone instinctively walked into that prairie and sea of flowers. Subsequently, Kaito Shirogane bizarrely saw illusory human figures appearing in front of them one by one.

Those figures could be seen as illusory and unreal at first, but as Steve and the others embraced them, they rapidly collapsed into true, substantial existences.

Kaito Shirogane could even hear the other party's heartbeat.

Pfft~

Blood flowed out of Kaito Shirogane's nose and mouth once again. His figure flickered for a moment, as if about to disappear.

Kaito Shirogane took a step forward, but ki did not appear. His foot also landed on that prairie.

"I can't feel my ki..."

Kaito Shirogane had also done some supplementary reading on the Marvel world, including some works highly correlated with this world. Therefore, he wasn't surprised that Wanda could use Chaos Magic to create this kind of illusion.

But he didn't expect that even his abilities were affected.

Chaos Magic... altering reality...

Kaito Shirogane tried for a moment and found that many of his abilities were affected. Ki, Satsui no Hadou, and Magnetic Field Rotation could not be deployed, but the strength and force inherently endowed by his physical body still existed.

Kaito Shirogane put his hands behind his back, ignoring the performance of the others, and walked directly into the prairie and sea of flowers.

A strange fragrance entered Kaito Shirogane's nasal cavity. His spirit seemed to be involuntarily mobilized, and various scenes continuously rolled before his eyes.

He saw the appearance of himself deliberately suppressing his true nature and masquerading as a good student at Binhai University; then he returned to his high school period, sitting at the back of the classroom and mockingly laughing at everyone with a playful expression; and then, it was his junior high school era, looking with curiosity at those societal figures unable to stand up.

Time reversed before his eyes. Those scenes from the past, of which only a faint impression remained, began to reappear clearly like a movie being played. But in every freeze-frame, just as those human figures were about to condense, they shattered.

Kaito Shirogane had absolutely no cognition or understanding of those people; therefore, he could not construct their existence.

He couldn't feel his own feelings towards them, so he couldn't get the corresponding projection.

As Kaito Shirogane continued forward, he analyzed the core of Wanda's reality alteration. She didn't completely create everything out of thin air; rather, she treated every human drawn into it as a "processor core" and variable.

Every human was using their own thoughts, memories, and emotions to enrich the reality she created.

But Kaito Shirogane had no reality here that could construct new connections with him. He was like an artificial human living in disguise and an abstract life.

Walking all the way, he never stopped for a single step.

Finally, just as he was about to step out of this sea of flowers, Kaito Shirogane stopped.

He saw a mountain forest shrouded in clouds and mist. In the middle of it were fertile farmlands and carefully constructed ditches. An old man wearing a bamboo hat was bending over to wash his hands in the ditch, only to see a wooden tub floating down the water channel, containing a baby inside.

That baby neither cried nor fussed, just calmly looking at the sky.

Kaito Shirogane also took the opportunity to look up. In the sky, a brown-haired man wearing a white robe with black patterns stood quietly in the air.

Kaito Shirogane frowned. This scene was actually completely absent from his memory.

That was Sosuke Aizen; was this the memory of his infancy?!

But why would he forget? Who was that old man?

Kaito Shirogane's mind raced. Sosuke Aizen's phantom rapidly solidified above his head. In the next moment, an intense fluctuation erupted from above Kaito Shirogane.

Hum~

Unlike the raging violence sweeping like ocean waves when Conqueror's Haki erupted.

When Reiatsu erupted, it was more like the world suddenly changing color. An unmatched pressure instantly pressed down on the heart, the world became extremely quiet, and one's whole person could only be crushed to the ground by that heavy soul, struggling desperately as if dying.

As Kaito Shirogane's cognition of Aizen began to project into this world, a terrifying oppressive feeling rapidly erupted above the sea of flowers.

With his back to that terrifying feeling, Kaito Shirogane walked silently towards the stone steps on the edge of the cliff.

"From the moment you were born, I have been watching you..."

"Kaito Shirogane, you are my creation."

The Aizen spoke the inner thoughts of Kaito Shirogane. Behind him, Black Widow, Captain America, and more people swept into this illusion, all began to awaken because of the terrifying Reiatsu.

That oppressive feeling of the soul being near death rapidly caused these people's senses and perception to start changing.

Kaito Shirogane walked up the long stone steps and arrived at the manor. He saw Wanda, wearing a red evening gown, sitting under a huge parasol, facing his direction.

Her face no longer had that wavering, breaking-down expression from before; her whole person appeared cold.

Kaito Shirogane walked under the parasol, only to see Vision opposite Wanda, still in the state of a corpse with his head split open.

She actually didn't resurrect Vision in the illusion...

"You and those people are in league with each other."

"You also desire the power of the Mind Stone, because you... are just an artificial creation."

Wanda looked at Kaito Shirogane. Above the sea of flowers, everyone sank into the hallucination once again; the human figures around them became even more numerous.

Kaito Shirogane lowered his head, allowing Wanda to attack the void in his heart.

Solomon stood in the air, looking at the crimson mist. He tentatively attacked once with the [Dragon-Slaying Spear], but it had no effect.

That space seemed to have transformed into another dimension; even energy attacks would vanish the moment they entered.

He saw Mercenary Tao swallowed by the red mist, but he was absolutely certain that Mercenary Tao wouldn't die just like this.

Solomon believed the Mind Stone was definitely not in Ebony Maw's hands; that gem could be exchanged for a life in the hands of the Scarlet Witch.

Now... all obstacles had disappeared.

Wanda began to mutate, and Mercenary Tao was drawn into the illusion by Wanda. These two individuals capable of threatening him had traded pieces with each other.

Right now, it was the time for all plans to get back on track.

Boom!

A violent wind suddenly howled. Artoria abruptly turned her head, seeing the woman she had severely injured with one slash flying up into the air from behind.

And above New York, dark clouds gathered; she sensed another intense storm approaching.

Yun Wujiu, who had completely frozen himself, saw this scene, his mind shaken.

Monsoon was pretending to be injured?

She hadn't turned against Solomon... In the next moment, he realized another truth.

Trade Wind wasn't dead either!

That guy... had prepared a backup plan long ago!

At the same time, the Tree Herder also realized this point. He had already escaped to a ruin-like underground world, but here, he felt an intense chill.
