Dragon Ball, simultaneously traversing countless worlds

Teaming up with him will allow us to get to the bottom of things in future battles and see if he really is Hu Huahao.

The two chatted warmly, and after getting to know each other, Lei Hu revealed his purpose: "Brother Luo, we are probably at a disadvantage in this faction war. Why don't we stick together and increase our chances of survival?"

Lei Hu invited Luo Yan to team up, which suited Luo Yan perfectly, so he readily agreed.

“Okay, I accept your invitation.” Luo Yan reached out and shook hands with Hu Huahao.

Lei Hu laughed: "Then we're temporarily allies. Let me introduce you to a younger brother. He's an expert I met on my last mission, and he's quite skilled."

Lei Hu beckoned, and a young man in his early twenties with a buzz cut, wearing a short-sleeved t-shirt, walked towards the two of them.

The young man's gait was strange, as if he were wading through mud and water, with each foot slightly off the ground and his five toes gripping the ground as he moved forward.

Luo Yan had a sharp eye and noticed that the young man always kept his upper body upright when he walked, with his head, perineum, and toes always forming a straight line.

This is someone who has mastered the "Mud-Treading Step" from Baguazhang, a traditional Chinese martial art, and has achieved a very high level of skill, at least reaching the level of "Transformation of Strength".

"Hello, I am Wang Zongchao." The young man introduced himself gently, with a humble yet confident attitude, displaying the demeanor of a master. He even directly stated his real name, showing his sincerity.

"Wang Zongchao!?"

As Luo Yan pondered the name, he recalled a novel called "The Path of the Infinite Martial Artist," whose protagonist's name and appearance closely matched this person's.

Luo Yan didn't finish reading this book, but he knew that the protagonist's focus was always on martial arts, and his strength eventually became extremely high.

So Luo Yan gladly extended his hand and shook hands with Wang Zongchao.

Chapter 156 Ultimate Creature Kars

While more than fifty reincarnators gathered at Fujikasane Mountain, more than thirty reincarnators from the Demon King's camp also descended upon Edo.

These reincarnators all possess power attributes that lean towards darkness and evil, and most of them are not human.

The thirty-odd reincarnators sized each other up, unusually wary.

Among these reincarnators are ghouls with ghoul eyes, kabane with glowing hearts, and vampires with pale skin and protruding fangs.

There was also a half-demon with a muscular physique, whose bloodline to Toguro had been enhanced.

There are even werewolves covered in hair and monsters that have eaten the cells of other monsters.

Among these reincarnators, the most eye-catching was a man with black wavy hair, a muscular body, and deep, dark eyes.

He wore only a silk scarf around his neck and a loincloth on his lower body; he was dressed very little and in a very strange manner.

But his unusual stance was even more eye-catching than his revealing attire.

The person was holding his left arm with his right hand, with his left arm raised and his hand pressed against his cheek. His body was slightly twisted, making him look like a grotesque insect.

One of the reincarnators whispered, "This guy is doing a JOJO pose, and his outfit looks just like Kars, the ultimate creature from JOJO!"

"It's not just the dress that's similar, I think his face is exactly the same as Katz's."

"This person must be a die-hard JOJO fan, so die-hard that they even had plastic surgery on their face."

An ordinary person's face looks natural, but this guy's face not only has sharp angles, but also shadows that look like they were drawn on with an ink pen, making it look unnatural at all.

Two reincarnators were talking badly about someone behind their back, and this person overheard them.

As soon as the protective shield disappeared, the person instantly appeared in front of the two.

He said with a serious expression, "This face is real, it really is me, Kars."

He poked his cheek, his fingertips digging deep into his skin, his eyes revealing an extremely serious expression.

One of the reincarnators scoffed, "You say you're Kars? Don't be ridiculous. Kars is a Pillar Man; he can't survive in sunlight."

Kaz explained slowly and deliberately, “You’re right, our race is indeed unable to live in the sunlight, but I have obtained the Aja Red Stone and overcome my fear of sunlight.”

The reincarnator continued, "You make it sound so real. Even if you've become an ultimate life form that's not afraid of sunlight, I still don't believe you're Kars."

The characters in the story want to become reincarnators, but they must wipe out all the reincarnators and steal their watches.

Alternatively, the reincarnators themselves can issue invitations, using recruitment scrolls and paying a large sum of points to make the story characters become reincarnators.

Kars is very strong, but his opponent in the story, Joseph Joestar, is also extremely strong and a genius in combat. If the protagonist and the Reincarnator team up, Kars has absolutely no chance of winning.

Kaz nodded and said, "You're right. There are indeed only these two ways for characters in the story to become reincarnators. I was fortunate enough to become a reincarnator thanks to Mr. Orochimaru's help."

"Orochimaru? Orochimaru from Naruto?" the reincarnator asked.

“Yes, it’s that Mr. Orochimaru.” Kaz’s eyes showed gratitude. “He changed my life and showed me the real world.”

"Are you kidding me? Orochimaru from Naruto has become a reincarnator? Why have I never heard of such a thing before?" The reincarnator looked shocked.

"That's because your rank is too low. Orochimaru is a third-tier reincarnator, while you, a nobody, are only a first-tier. What right do you have to know about him?"

Kars greatly respected Orochimaru and was very grateful to him.

In the JoJo series, Kars ultimately failed and was exiled to space, where he was frozen into an ice sculpture.

It was Orochimaru, in his third form, who came to the world of JoJo, found him in space, thawed him, and gave him new power and a new life.

Orochimaru, a third-order reincarnator, descended into the story of Giorno Giovanna.

After arriving, he used technological means to find Kars' ice sculpture, revive him, and even stabbed Kars with a Stand arrow, awakening new power for him and making Kars a Stand user.

In the end, he paid a huge price in points to make Kars a Reincarnator.

However, judging from Kars' attitude towards Orochimaru, Orochimaru may have left some kind of backup plan in Kars' soul, which makes Kars respect him so much.

Kars is also very proud, and his high regard for Orochimaru, even though Orochimaru is his savior, seems somewhat abnormal.

After hearing about Orochimaru, another reincarnator suddenly tugged at his companion and said, "I remembered a rumor, a rumor about the BOSS team. I don't know if you've heard it."

"BOSS team, you mean that reincarnation team composed entirely of major bosses from the story world? Does such a team really exist?"

According to rumors, the BOSS team was formed by Aizen from the Bleach world. He was the first character from the story world to transcend the original story world and enter the Nightmare Space.

After Aizen became a reincarnator, he continued to recruit villains from other worlds. It is known that his subordinates include Orochimaru from Naruto, Megatron from Transformers, Shendu from Jackie Chan Adventures, and Xiong Ba from Storm Riders.

Orochimaru was a member recruited not long ago, and his strength was only at the level of a third-tier reincarnator.

Among the early recruits of Aizen, even Xiong Ba had reached the fifth rank.

This is an extremely terrifying reincarnation squad. Although they are few in number, even legion-level forces dare not provoke them.

Because most of the BOSS team members are doing missions at higher levels, there is very little information among the first-tier reincarnators.

If Orochimaru hadn't just recruited Kars and made him a new member of the BOSS team, appearing in the first-order reincarnation world, these reincarnators would never have had the chance to meet any members of the BOSS team.

The two reincarnators panicked at the thought that the guy in front of them might actually be Kaz.

“I’m sorry, we misspoke. I’m willing to pay you points as compensation, Mr. Katz.”

The two reincarnators immediately backed down.

Kaz shook his head and said, "No compensation is needed, but I require you to be my subordinates and serve me in this mission world."

The two reincarnators breathed a sigh of relief and were happy to have found a powerful ally.

They agreed, but the next second, Kaz made a lightning-fast move, his fingertips piercing between their eyebrows.

"Mr. Katz, what are you doing?" the two reincarnators asked in horror.

"Of course, it's about controlling you and making you serve me."

Kaz's flesh split apart, transforming into a creature resembling a hybrid of an iron worm and an octopus, which burrowed into the brains of the two men.

The creature's tentacles adhered perfectly to their cerebral cortex, releasing simulated neural signals and completely controlling their actions and thoughts.

The two reincarnators' eyes became empty and lifeless. They knelt on one knee and respectfully said, "Lord Kaz."

Kaz withdrew his hand with satisfaction, glancing at the other reincarnators around him, a cold glint flashing in his eyes.

The other reincarnators weren't fools either. They sensed something was wrong as soon as Kaz attacked the two reincarnators, and secretly took precautions before leaving the area.

With the Reincarnators on guard, it will take considerable effort for Kaz to subdue them and control their minds.

If they act now, they will all band together, so Kaz gave up the idea of ​​controlling all the reincarnators now and planned to wait until they were scattered before defeating them one by one.

Kaz stopped fighting and began to examine the missions in this world.

It's similar to the main mission on Luo Yan's side.

Main mission 1: Join the forces of the Demon King, Muzan Kibutsuji.

Main mission two: Kill ten members of the Demon Slayer Corps.

Main mission three: Defeat Kagaya Ubuyashiki, the master of the Demon Slayer Corps.

"It's a very simple task," Kaz smiled. Completing the Nightmare Space mission wouldn't require much thought, allowing him to focus his energy on his own affairs.

Kaz looked at the humans coming and going in Edo and licked his lips: "There are so many humans in this world. They will all become my food and help me reach a higher level of life."

Chapter 157 The Final Selection

Back at the foot of Fujikasayama, the final selection has begun.

After a brief introduction of the rules by Kagaya Ubuyashiki's two daughters, the group of natives and reincarnators entered Fujikasane Mountain.

Passing the final selection is simple: just stay in the mountains for seven days.

But it's easy to imagine that the reincarnators won't just lie there obediently for seven days.

There are plenty of low-level ghosts in Tengxi Mountain. Each low-level ghost is worth fifty points, so this is a treasure trove for farming points! If they don't kill all the ghosts in the mountain, they'll be missing out big time.

The reincarnators rushed into the mountains, jostling and eager to find ghosts, leaving the locals completely bewildered by their fervor.

Tanjiro was already surrounded by many reincarnators, and at this moment, these reincarnators also ran out.

"Hey, be careful, don't be impulsive," Tanjiro warned.

Tanjiro has encountered demons before and knows very well how terrifying they are. Even a low-level demon possesses incredible strength that humans cannot withstand.

However, all the reincarnators present had experienced at least one formal mission, and by simply strengthening their basic attributes through points, none of them were weaker than these lower-level ghosts.

Therefore, none of the reincarnators paid any attention to Tanjiro and all joined the mission to search for demons.

Soon, the first ghost encountered the reincarnator.

This was a bald ghost with bulging veins on its scalp, grayish-white skin, and eyes like a wild beast. The moment it saw the reincarnator, it pounced on him like a ferocious beast that had been starving for decades.

"Well done! Flying Sword Style: Dragon Soaring Flash!"
