Chapter 24 - True Power.
The sun was still shining brightly on the Empire that lasted for millennia, but the sun was a thing and the Empire condition was something else.
The situation was getting worse and worse with every minute passing. The Empire was getting more stressed from the fact that they couldn't find anything about Night raid, which made the anger increase even further.
The flamboyant atmosphere of the Empire was telling clearly that it's preparing for the war, which enchanted when some Teigu wielders reached the Empire with the prime minister's son. The three beasts also reached the Empire as Budo's death surprised them and made them take this matter seriously.
The Empire forces are already ready for the battle and they were only waiting for a leader which is the Empire's strongest, Esdeath. But something that happened today made the Empire startled.
They saw lightning and dark clouds appearing from afar without any warning. The loud thunder sound followed by the gigantic roar which they couldn't explain made the Empire reach a quick conclusion.
The only Teigu and power capable of doing such a feat with lightning is general Budo Teigu Adramelech. The Empire stood still for a moment before it rushed to send it forces towards that place.
This is a humiliation and a threat to the Empire. The revolutionary army actually dared to use Budo Teigu and the worst part is they found someone that could use it. The Empire swear that it'll never let such a coward thief get away with this and it'll show what happens when you mess with the Empire.
When the Empire was boiling from the flames of revenge. The thief was doing his very friendly walk away from the Empire as he reached an uninhabited place next to the Empire forest.
Leo was walking calmly in the forest as he was feeling the beauty of nature while appreciating every moment in it... Probably.
Leo looked at the bright sun and he felt it hurts his eyes, but the wind was quite pleasant, as he was begging to the throw Regulus Aurum at someone.
{This became boring...} Leo was walking in the woods as he felt he's almost reaching the beast dying location {Maybe I should just gather all those Teigu and bomb this Empire already...}
Leo has almost finished his goals in this world as he only needs to collect some specific Teigus and study some more, but he thinks it's not bad if collected more Teigus. However, his teammates also need some time to prepare as Kazuma wants more leveling, and Misaka found a good opportunity to study her formula.
{First, I need Incursio then two more at top priority...} Leo was putting the last touch on his plans before he felt something from the front or rather say it was two things.
First, there was a huge cloud of negative Ki filled with emotions like pain and suffering which in Leo's eyes was begging to be nuked and erase from the map. And the second thing, he has company.
Leo stopped his footsteps as he looked to the front. After waiting for a while, Leo fixed his monocle before pointing towards a tree with his hand in the form of a gun.
A small fireball appeared on Leo's finger before it got compressed and became slightly unstable.
Leo felt it was almost the same before he said " Bang"
The fireball flew at a speed of a bullet before it reached the tree and pierced it instantly with the guy that was behind it, as his body fell to the ground.
Leo waved his hand blowing the smoke as many people wearing masks appeared around him which make him now surrounded.
"So... I'm surrounded which is quite new for me, but I have a question" Leo stared at these people that didn't seem normal as they were walking like zombies before he said " Are you the group that will take me to your leader, or the one that will ask who am I?"
Leo didn't receive a response as these zombies like people revealed claws in their hands before they rushed towards Leo on four feet.
"Take me to your leader, huh..." Leo raised his hand as he tightened the glove he was wearing before he said " But you have to know..."
"The pokemon battle starts when the eyes meet" Leo looked at these zombies rushing towards him before he said " Pikachu use discharge"
"Pika..." Pikachu rushed from Leo's shadow as he clenched his little hands before he screamed " Chu!!!"
A blast of lightning hit all the surrounding and all the enemies around, knocking them back after cooking them to charcoal in a radius of 20 meters. But this didn't stop these guys as they rushed without fear, even some cooked ones stood up like nothing hit them.
Leo that wasn't hurt by Pikachu's attack looked at this scene before he sighed and summoned the wind spirit while Yamato was hanging on his waist.
Wind started blowing furiously as a small tornado and a lot of winds blades appeared around Leo before he waved his hand and heads flew in the air.
Gold Experience appeared behind Leo before rushing with Pikachu as the wind spirit protected them from damage with the wind.
"The enthusiastic walk starts..." Leo walked forwards as he spanned his fingers and 10 blue blades appeared behind him before they ignited by a crimson fire that melted the ground behind him.
"Now..." Leo walked towards the battlefield as the winds, thunder, and fire were destroying everything in front of him.
When Leo was finally getting some action in that boring forest, there was something happening inside the Empire secret recherche base.
Inside a giant laboratory with different kinds of danger beasts and human bodies lying inside tubes, there was a man with black hair. He wore glasses, a yellow suit with a tie, and a white lab coat. This is a doctor and scientist that work for the Empire, Dr. Stylish.
The man was staring at a mouse in front of him as his eyes shone with madness. He was dissecting this mouse without killing, but after moments; the mouse died and turned into black smoke and vanished.
"DAMMIT!!" The man hit the operation table throwing all the tools to the ground as he was holding his head maniacally and screaming " NO! I NEED MORE!! I DIDN'T UNDERSTAND ANYTHING!!"
"How? Just how?... How can this kind of creature exist?!" The man was holding his head as he said " It seems alive and normal creature, but its cells don't age!!"
"It doesn't need to eat or drink even breathing is optional and when it dies it'll turn into black smoke" The man calmed down before he walked from the operation table before he did a pose and said " Is this the secret to immortality? I need to know!!"
Stylish remember when he was experimenting with some rats because he was waiting for the next group of volunteers from the Empire before he notices this kind of creature. After it dies, it turned into black smoke which surprised Stylish and asked where did they get this kind of creature.
After a lot of investigation, Stylish found out that these creatures came from the Empire and caught by some guards which made Stylish experiments obsession awaken as he wanted to know about them.
Stylish made one of his men that had a giant nose smell all the rats in the labs before they found that these creatures have an unfamiliar smell than the usual rats. So after confirming this, Stylish ordered his man to collect every rat, mouse, bug, and bird from the capital and send it to him as he discovered a lot about these creatures but he felt he doesn't know anything.
Sadly for Stylish, all the creatures now are dead which stopped his researches, and now, he can only hope that his men find more in the capital.
"Lord Stylish!!" Suddenly, three people rushed from the lab door and sprinted towards Stylish.
"What wrong with you guys?" Stylish put his hand above his hand before he said " Don't you know that the lab is forbidden?"
"My deep apologies, Lord Stylish, but we found what you need" a man with a giant nose said as steam was coming from his nose.
"Oh, oh, oh..." Stylish eyes sparkled before he held the man's shoulder and said " Where, where is it?!"
"Outside the base, surrounded by your forces, Lord Stylish" a man with blond hair bowed down before clearing the path for Stylish.
Stylish didn't care about these three before he rushed as fast as he could towards the entrance as his men followed him.
"Lord Stylish!! There's a problem!!" a woman with giant ears suddenly panicked, but Stylish didn't care as he reached the base entrance and walked outside to see something shocked him.
A yellow ball of electricity was jumping around the place, destroying his men easily with one hit. A small cat was floating with a tornado and killing everything in its way. Stylish was even more surprised when his men got their head crushed by an invisible thing screaming MUDA!.
Leo was standing in the middle of flames and magma as the surrounding ground was filled with corpses. He was holding the head of a green-haired guy that tried to sneak attack him.
The man opened his mouth as bullets fired at Leo, but all of them got block by his Touki before Venom turned into a blade and cut this guy's head.
"Hm?" Leo looked around with his dragon eyes to see Stylish looking at him in amazement before he said " Welcome to the party"
Stylish and his men stood there in shock as they watched their army of hundreds getting crushed like ants, but Leo didn't care as he was looking at Stylish gloves.
"W-Who're you!!??" one of Stylish man woke up from the shock and said with fear.
"Me? Well..." Leo put his hand on his chin before he said " I'm a new pokemon trainer just came to this region to fight the elite three(Honest, Esdeath, Budo), but I accidentally killed one of them"
"So, I'm here to take my badge from you... Hand it over" Leo pointed at Stylish gloves, which is his Teigu, and the only reason Leo still didn't blow up this place.
"SPLENDID!!! STYLISH!!" Stylish shook like a madman as Leo didn't understand what wrong with this guy.
Stylish men stood behind him as they were waiting for the moment the poison work on Leo. They spread the poison after they saw the massacre going outside.
"WHAT IS THAT CREATURE IS IT THE SAME AS THE OTHER ONES!!?? THIS IS..." Stylish was getting more crazy as he was looking at Pikachu and wind spirit, but Leo was getting annoyed, so he stopped him.
"Okay, I've to stop you there, I don't care about you, or what do you want to say, so I'll take this..." Leo pulled Yamato as Stylish gloves teleported to his hands which made Stylish widen his eyes because he didn't understand how this happens and why his poison isn't working on this guy.
"And now..." Leo looked at Stylish and his men before he waved Yamato.
"LORD STYLISH!!" one of Stylish men pushed him away as all of them got their head chopped, and Stylish was chopped from the middle.
"GAH!!!" Stylish felt to the ground in pain as he didn't understand how this happens, but he understood that he'll die if he didn't act now, so he took a bottle from his bloody coat and injected himself.
"Secret weapon 2!! Danger type!!" Stylish forced those words from his mouth as he was coughing blood before his body started to transform as he said " Here It comes!!"
Leo watched Stylish turn into a big buff guy before he put Yamato back into its scabbard and sighed as he said "The second form, huh..."
"This is the ultimate stylishness!!!" Stylish hair grew longer and turned white before his body opened a mouth and ate his men.
Leo stared at Stylish, speaking non-sense and growing larger as he turned into a half-robot doing nothing. He now understands Saitama boredom as he waits for his enemies.
"Can you hurry up..." Leo didn't understand what this guy is screaming about but he thinks he should blow him up now.
"Not enough, not enough!!! I need more food to become the true power above all and increase my stylishness!!!" Stylish looked at Leo that didn't care about him before punching him, but he got his hand blocked by a wind barrier before he was knocked away.
*CRASH*
The giant body of Stylish hit the ground as it raised a cloud of dust, but Leo didn't care before he said" True power... That's something people don't know about, but It's actually simple"
"As a man that was poisoned by the culture for many years, I can say I'm an expert in power, so let me tell you something" Leo looked at Stylish struggling to get up before he said " People might think power is learning and mastering your techniques or battles to understand your true powers before you get more from it. But actually... That's bullshit"
"Can't have more power? Mastering your power? That's a bunch of non-sense people keep doing. Listen..." Leo cleared his throat before he said " Although I don't deny the importance of techniques, but those are secondaries for me. So after looking at a bunch of retards and idiots. Here are my three tips in becoming stronger"
"First, abuse the shit out of your power and take every chance to become more OP even if you're already OP" Leo looked at Stylish recovering before rushing towards him.
"Secondly, avoid every situation or a chance of getting nerfed by any stupid reason or anything, which means don't be an idiot" Leo raised his hand as yellow lightning appeared on his body and Stylish got even closer and was ready to punch.
"Lastly, Firepower... And more firepower!!" Leo looked at Stylish as the dark clouds appeared in the sky before he said " Come forth... REGULUS AURUM!!!"
"ROOOOAAAARRRR!!!" Regulus appeared from Leo's body as lightning appeared around Leo and pushed Stylish back.
Regulus stared at Stylish before he raised his claw while Leo said " Begone... With this thunder roar"
"ROOOAAR!!" Regulus swing his claws as the lightning and thunder sound filled the world in front of Stylish as he wasn't able to think of anything before he lost all his senses.
*RUMBLEEEE!!!!!* *CRASH!!!!!!*
Everything around Leo was getting destroyed by the raging lightning as the trees vanished and the ground was annihilated.
The scene continued for almost 10 seconds before the lightning disappeared and left a giant pothole with more than 500 meters wide and over 100 meters deep. And all of this was a casual strike from Regulus.
Leo nodded as he finally tested how strong this familiar in the subject of destruction, especially as he can go all out as long as Leo has energy to give him. Leo knows that if he wants, regulus can destroy miles by one casual strike if he was in his top form, but it's unnecessary now.
"Well, I guess this is the end of this walk..." Leo fixed his monocle as he wanted to leave, but suddenly he noticed something before he said " Well, hello there..."
Leo turned his head as he saw a man panicking in a place far away from the battlefield before he walked towards him.
It seems that this enthusiastic walk is still long.
