Anime Crossover: Post-Apocalyptic Survival, My Stand is the World

Before the girls could react to what he meant, Su Chen had already turned around and walked slowly to the display window where the life-size "Fate/kaleid liner Prisma Illya" figure was displayed.

Then, to everyone's utter astonishment, he slowly raised his right fist.

"Hey! Su Chenjun! What do you want to do?!"

Kasumigaoka Utaha was the first to react, and she screamed in shock.

This guy…

Is he crazy?

Didn't he see that Yui had only accidentally stepped on and broken a small figurine, yet it had attracted such a terrifying attack?!

He's now actually trying to attack the biggest one!

however--

Her answer was a crisp sound of shattering glass!

Wow!

Su Chen shattered the huge shop window glass with a single punch!

In that instant, it was as if a hornet's nest had been stirred up!

The entire streets of Akihabara seemed to come alive!

"Roar!!"

An unsettling commotion arose from shops all around and from the shadows of every building!

Countless scarlet lights suddenly lit up; they were not lamps, but pairs of eyes filled with violence and rage!

One, ten, one hundred!

As if receiving some silent command, thousands of "patrolmen" awoke from the dead silence.

Their stiff bodies instantly came to life, forming an army of monsters of various shapes and sizes!

They transformed into a black wave of death ten times larger than the one at the crossroads, surging madly toward Su Chen, the culprit who "broke the rules"!

"Whoa! Su Chen! Why did you do something so dangerous?!"

Yui Yuigahama was so frightened that she hid behind Yukino Yukinoshita, only daring to peek out a little.

Su Chen turned around.

Faced with the apocalyptic scene that could have crushed any army, his face showed no fear whatsoever, but instead revealed an incredibly bright smile full of sunshine and confidence!

He gave the girls behind him a thumbs-up that said "No.1".

Then, revealing a set of pearly white teeth, and in a tone brimming with power and reassurance, mimicking a certain No. 1 hero, he declared:

"Aren't you staying long?"

"—Because, I've come!"

The next moment, he stopped suppressing himself.

The "Innate Qi" of the "Triple Rebirth" technique erupted wildly within his body like a flood breaking through a dam!

The world suddenly appeared behind him!

Without hesitation, the man and his double charged headlong into the black wave of death!

This time, Su Chen did not use "time stop" again, nor did he pursue "instant kill".

He was like a top-notch bullfighter dancing on the edge of a knife.

His figure left behind golden, rhythmic afterimages amidst the impenetrable horde of monsters.

Every punch thrown by [World] was perfectly timed.

He parried deadly claws and dodged a sneak attack. A powerful punch sent a monster that tried to flank him flying, knocking down a whole bunch of monsters!

All in one go!

This is like a violent performance show!

He was using this most direct and shocking method to show the "students" behind him, who were completely stunned, all the attack patterns and weaknesses of these "enraged" monsters.

"Did you see clearly? Yukino, Utaha."

Su Chen's voice even had the leisure to clearly come from the center of the battlefield.

"Their attacks are fast, but... completely chaotic. They only attack in straight lines and don't know how to coordinate. They're even dumber than the lowest-level AI in a game."

"Their weakness remains their 'core.' However, it's far more durable than that of ordinary monsters. It requires..."

boom!

[World] A single punch shattered a monster's "armor," revealing a pulsating red core inside.

"At least, only an attack of this magnitude can be effective."

The scene was extremely bizarre.

A person is leisurely conducting on-site instruction amidst an attack by hundreds of monsters.

……

A few minutes later, after the last "patrolman" was also smashed in the head by [World], the entire street returned to tranquility.

All that remained were the remains of monsters scattered on the ground and four girls who had become completely numb.

"..."

Kasumigaoka Utaha stared at the man, whose clothes were still spotless, and nearly broke the pen in her hand.

monster…

This guy is the real monster!

Just then, her gaze inadvertently fell on a shop next door whose glass door had been smashed.

At the entrance of the shop, an old pixelated electronic signboard was miraculously still flashing a faint red light.

There is a line of strange text above, made up of blurry pixel blocks.

It's like a rule.

She walked over instinctively and read it out word by word.

"【Article 1】"

"【Destroying the 'Collection' is Prohibited】"

"Collection?"

She frowned slightly after reading it.

"Do you mean these figurines and models?"

"What a twisted rule."

Su Chen walked over, looked at the line of text that was full of "game-like" feel, and stroked his chin thoughtfully.

"No vandalism allowed..."

"interesting."

"Is he treating the entire Akihabara like his own 'figure display case'?"

Chapter Thirty-Eight, Rule Two: Cheating Prohibited

"A display case for collectible figures?"

Kasumigaoka Utaha pondered Su Chen's metaphor, feeling a chill run down her spine.

Treat a city as your own collection room.

They treated thousands of monsters as security guards watching over their collection.

What kind of entity is behind this?

"Never mind what it is for now."

Su Chen clapped his hands, interrupting everyone's thoughts.

"Now that we know the first rule, the rest of the operation will be simple."

A smile appeared on his face that Yukino and Utaha both found somewhat familiar—a smile brimming with a wicked sense of humor.

"As long as we don't touch its 'figures,' it'll be fine, right?"

……

The team continued to delve deeper.

Su Chen's conjecture proved true.

As long as they are careful not to touch any of the "goods" in the shops on both sides of the street.

Those "patrolman" monsters wandering the streets will really ignore them.

This made the entire exploration process strangely smooth.

But soon, they encountered new troubles.

On the only way to "Showa University Hospital".

At the entrance of a large anime merchandise store, two more robust "guardian"-type monsters, covered in bone-like armor, stood motionless like door gods.

They completely blocked the way forward.

"It seems there are some places we can't avoid."

Kasumigaoka Utaha frowned as she looked at the two guards, who exuded a powerful sense of oppression just by standing there.

"Should we fight?" Yukino Yukinoshita's hand was already gripping the fire axe at her waist.

"We will definitely fight."

Su Chen nodded.

"You guys wait here."

He gave a brief instruction and then walked slowly alone toward the two "guards".

He stopped when he was about ten meters away from the other person.

Then, under the tense gazes of the girls behind him.

He slowly raised his right hand.

Time is his toy.

"The World!"

Om-!

The familiar world came to a standstill, arriving as scheduled.

however--

At the very moment time stop is activated!

Su Chen's expression changed slightly!

He felt it clearly.

An invisible shackle tightly bound his supposedly omnipotent time-stopping ability!

A very slight resistance has been generated!

Although the time stop was ultimately successful.

The world before him had turned back into that familiar gray and white expanse that he could control.

But Su Chen could sense it.

Activating the [World] this time consumed at least 30% more of his mental energy than it did outside!

The time stop time, which was originally five seconds, now only lasts about three seconds.

'Goodness.'
