Crossover Anime: I Became Invincible Starting as an Ajin

Chapter 134 Anubis joins the team

Anubis was terrified.

He was quite certain that he had never seen the man in front of him before.

This intelligence report reveals that an Asian man named Wang Bai, whose origins are unknown, somehow discovered his identity so quickly.

Logically speaking, no one should have expected that a sword would appear as a stand-in!

"Hmm? How am I supposed to use you? I hope you'll behave, or I won't be so polite as to punish you!"

Anubis heard the man before him speak; although his tone was very gentle, it instilled a sense of fear in him.

Based on intelligence, Jotaro is actually a more powerful Stand that deserves more attention.

But the mysterious man before him was even more frightening, especially since Anubis had a feeling that the man could indeed pose a threat to him.

but!

He, Anubis, was most resolute in saying no to his enemies!

"I will never betray Lord Dio. Ever since I was forged by the blacksmith five hundred years ago, I have been sealed in a museum until Lord Dio rescued me."

"Really? So that's how it is?"

Wang Bai looked around: "In that case, I'll just throw you into the Nile River over there."

'

""

Anubis looked at the riverbed beside him, a river that had never dried up in its long history. If he were to sink into it, he might not see the light of day again for hundreds of years.

Most importantly, his sword blade wouldn't last more than a hundred years; in the river, it would probably be corroded beyond recognition in just a few months.

"I'm sorry, I spoke a little too loudly just now."

Wang Bai was speechless. Anubis, that guy, could at least be a little more assertive.

Wait a minute, such a quick agreement, could it be that he has some bad intentions?

Wang Bai tentatively asked, "You're not trying to control me, are you?"

The sword in his hand suddenly trembled.

It seems he was right!

"Fine, I'll let you experience it."

It's important to know that a Stand is a symbol of the spirit, and generally speaking, the stronger the spirit, the stronger the Stand will be.

Therefore, it can be seen from Wang Bai's Stands that he not only has multiple Stands the size of a person, but also possesses powerful abilities such as shadow and immortality.

It's important to understand that Stand users are connected to their Stands; their fates are intertwined.

This also means that Wang Bai's Shadow Legion will not die even if they are injured. As their main body is a demi-human, they naturally have the same characteristics. In a sense, Wang Bai is not afraid of lethal methods.

These methods were completely irrelevant to Wang Bai.

However, if any of these Stand users were to have a special Stand that bypassed the limitation of immortality and attacked Wang Bai, that would be a different story.

Wang Bai placed his hand on the sword hilt without hesitation.

The voice of Anubis immediately echoed in one's mind. This voice was extremely seductive and could even make one think that it was the voice of one's own heart.

But the allure vanished immediately.

The intensity and power of this spirit are not as great as the impact of Miyamoto Musashi's artistic conception.

But does this mean that Wang Bai can use his own artistic conception to bewitch Anubis?

"quiet."

Wang Bai silently recited in his heart, "The power of my artistic conception is like the most stable rock. No matter how the torrent of memories crashes down, I remain unmoved."

His consciousness seemed to transform into a clear mirror, constantly reflecting the other party's interference while also trying to interfere with the other party.

As Wang Bai further eroded his opponent using his mental power, Anubis clearly revealed the core of its existence—that persistent will to learn, evolve, conquer, and exist.

"So that's how it is—" Wang Bai understood the true nature of the god Anubis.

"You are not simply evil," you are merely a product of the distorted and amplified nature of the two instincts of "existence" and "becoming stronger."

You learn to fight, to devour the defeated, just to prove your existence, to avoid being forgotten.

Rather than saying that a soul developed an obsession and became a Stand user, it would be more accurate to say that the obsession sublimated into a unique soul and awakened a Stand.

Wang Bai stopped resisting the mental impact and instead actively probed his own artistic conception into the core consciousness of the fragment.

This is not an attack, but rather "integration" and "guidance".

Wang Bai's artistic conception carries the true meaning of the "heart sword" that cuts through confusion, which he comprehended in the world of Wandering Swordsman; it carries the inclusive nature of the Imaginary Tree that connects all things; and it carries his unique perspective that transcends the material world, which he formed after traversing multiple worlds.

He did not attempt to erase the consciousness of Anubis, but rather, like a wise mentor, used his own realm of perception to guide and point out another path for that chaotic, persistent, and aggressive collection of consciousness.

He categorized and organized those violent battle memories, refining the combat techniques into pure "knowledge";

He channeled that persistent desire for evolution toward "protection" and "refinement";

This provided a more stable and "possible" habitat for the consciousness of Anubis, rather than confining it to cold metal.

"Follow me, and you will no longer need to prove your existence through killing and conquest."

"Your knowledge and power will have a higher meaning."

"I will show you a broader realm that transcends swords and combat."

Wang Bai's spiritual thoughts, like warm sunlight, shone into the cold, chaotic core of Anubis's consciousness, which had been frozen for thousands of years.

The hostile roar gradually subsided, replaced by confusion, followed by an unprecedented tranquility and clarity.

On the riverbank, Wang Bai slowly opened his eyes.

He held the blade of Anubis's sword in his hand.

But at this moment, Anubis was no longer a mere substitute.

Instead, it became a being that resonated with Wang Bai, and the power of the Imaginary Tree within its body seemed to have increased slightly due to this act of redemption.

The power of this growing Imaginary Tree became the tool for Wang Bai to transform the god Anubis.

At this moment, Anubis's sword was reshaped and transformed into an ordinary child.

It's like a divine artifact from an ancient legend, which took human form after being guided by a deity.

Anubis no longer radiated a ghostly light and evil aura, but became gentle, as if shrouded in a faint shadow.

With a thought, the power of the Shadow Legion within his stand naturally flowed, resonating with the Anubis god in his hand, which had been "purified" and "reconstructed" by his intention.

This is no longer the evil god's stand-in who only knew how to kill and study, but a brand new being that incorporates Wang Bai's artistic conception, the power of shadow, and the characteristics of the Imaginary Tree—Shadow Anubis.

Wang Bai could sense that he had established a profound connection with the god Anubis.

The opponent still retains a strong learning ability and fighting instinct, but its core will has been synchronized with Wang Bai.

The other party no longer craves meaningless killing, but rather, as an extension of Wang Bai's will, a living, evolving weapon and partner.

He can summon or recall it at will, just like he controls the Shadow Legion.

When facing enemies, Shadow Anubis can not only unleash his exquisite sword skills accumulated over thousands of years, but also combine them with Wang Bai's rune magic to give them various special effects, and can even use shadows to perform short-range teleportation attacks.

Even more terrifying is that it seems every Shadow Legion soldier has acquired an additional sentient, auxiliary weapon doppelganger that can assist each Shadow Legion soldier in combat.

Anubis, too, snapped out of the reverie that Wang Bai had just created.

It had always believed that Lord Dio was a true powerhouse, but after witnessing Wang Bai's experiences, it realized that Wang Bai standing here at this moment was merely an insignificant wisp of an avatar.

And then it understood those earth-shattering battles that flashed through its mind.

Even if it has lived for hundreds of years, it is still a frog at the bottom of a well.

What it knows and understands is but a drop in the ocean.

The real world was far wider and deeper than he had imagined.

In addition, he now has the freedom he has always dreamed of: a body capable of independent action.

Wang Bai, who achieved this, was seen as a true god in the eyes of Anubis.

And the purpose of this god's arrival here is to confront the enemy of that entire civilization, the "Incubator Civilization".

"Owner!"

"I seem to vaguely recall what you meant by incubators?"

"Um?

'

Wang Bai was surprised. He hadn't expected that he would find no clues in the battles along the way, but instead obtain information from the sword Anubis.

"Tell me in detail when you saw it."

When Wang Bai returned to the inn and showed everyone the newly refurbished Shadow Scimitar, and briefly explained what had happened, everyone was shocked.

"Yay! Yay! — They actually turned that weird stuff into their weapon —"

Jotaro lowered his hat brim, but he was already used to Wang Bai's abilities.

Polnareff, looking both terrified and envious, exclaimed, "You can do that?! I should never have picked it up in the first place!"

Joestar stroked his chin, his eyes gleaming: "Not only can it fight, but it can also purify and utilize the enemy's power—Wang Bai, you truly are our team's deepest secret weapon."

Wang Bai smiled slightly, sensing the gentle yet powerful presence of Shadow Anubis within the shadow space of his body.

Subduing Anubis not only eliminated a potential threat but also added a powerful trump card to his deck.

Just as everyone was discussing, Abuder noticed that it was getting dark and casually pressed the switch next to the door.

When he pressed it, he felt a sharp pain in his hand.

"Damn it, I got an electric shock. Luckily it was just static electricity, not a real short circuit."

Seeing that the lights in the room were not on, Abuder analyzed the reason and felt relieved.

As a Stand user, one won't easily die from electric shock due to the currents of modern society, but it's definitely not going to be pleasant either; one could easily end up in a coma or severely injured.

"No, that's not right, Avdol!"

Polnareff looked towards the switch: "There are two switches next to you, you probably pressed the wrong one!"

Joestar asked in confusion, "How could that be? I clearly remember there was only one switch!"

"After I pressed the button, I felt an electric shock, but the light was still on, right?"

"Did you touch the switch from the left or the right?"

"Of course, it's the left!"

"How could that be? The switch I touched is on the right. Are you confused about left and right?!"

Wang Bai frowned. What hotel would put two identical switches next to each other without any markings?

"Damn it, could it be a Stand user?!"

Wang Bai immediately reminded everyone present.

But whether it was the four who had just been called or Abudel, after a moment of caution, they found that nothing had happened.

"You're being too sensitive, Mr. Wang Bai."

"We can't always run into Stand users, can we?!"

The crowd tried to persuade Wang Bai.

Instead of relaxing, Wang Bai became even more nervous.

These two have already set the bar high.

Wang Bai subconsciously moved away from the two of them.

The next morning, Joestar was a little tired and got up a bit late.

As he stood alone in the hotel corridor, preparing to meet up with the others, something strange happened.

The keychain in his pocket suddenly became unusually heavy and was pulled outwards violently!

Immediately afterwards, the fire hydrant covers on the wall, the metal decorations in the corridor, and even the dinner knife on the waiter's cart as he passed by all seemed to be pulled by invisible threads, whistling towards him!

"Whoa! What's going on?!"

Joestar dodged awkwardly, then instantly realized, "It was a Stand attack! Yesterday's electrical leak—it was a trap!"

""

He's been magnetized! And the magnetic force is constantly increasing!

Just then, he saw Maria, the woman standing at the end of the corridor, with a cold look in her eyes and a mocking smile on her lips.

Her stand-in, the goddess Buster, was like an invisible force field, entwined around the elevator machinery beside her.

"Josta Joestar, how are you feeling?"

Maria sneered.

"It feels good to be a magnet, doesn't it?"

The elevator doors suddenly creaked open with a piercing sound, and the heavy metal doors slammed shut on Joestar!

Joestar hurriedly braced himself with his hands, but the magnetic force made it difficult for him to exert any force, and his arm was about to be crushed!

"Mr. Joestar!"

At the critical moment, Abuder arrived!

The Red Magician's flames instantly scorched the elevator doors, forcing the machinery to stop.

However, just as Avdol approached Joestar, attempting to pull him out, "Whoosh!"

An even stronger magnetic force erupted!

Abuder felt his body sink, and the metal ornaments he carried with him, and even the zippers on his clothes, all generated a powerful suction force!

He was also magnetized! Moreover, his magnetic poles were opposite to Joestar's!

"Bang!

3

Caught completely off guard, the two were suddenly drawn together like two magnets of opposite poles!

Chest to chest, the position was extremely awkward, and they couldn't separate!

"Bastard! Let me go!"

Polnareff rushed over from a distance, and he and Jotaro also came over after hearing the commotion.

But seeing this bizarre and comical scene before him, he didn't know what to do for a moment.

Maria took the opportunity to disappear around the corner of the corridor with a cold smile.
