Itachi’ve really degraded after spending too long in the Human World.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Itachi don’t know shit.” Knowing Hachigen was teasing him, Urahara Kisuke refused to argue, rolled over, and turned his back.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing Urahara wouldn’t respond, Hachigen changed the subject: “It’s hard to imagine what kind of Shinigami this man would become.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hachigen’s offhand remark made Urahara Kisuke’s body hairs stand on end.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Meanwhile, Chu Yang was also reviewing tonight’s sudden battle.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He held back at the last moment partly out of concern for innocent neighbors, and partly because he recognized Urahara Kisuke and sensed no malice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ever since revealing part of his abilities before Rukia, Chu Yang had anticipated this situation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The likelihood of conflict with Shinigami was high, but he hadn’t expected Urahara Kisuke to be the first.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Urahara hadn’t used Shikai or Bankai, and his total power output was under twenty percent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gaining a slight advantage was only natural; Chu Yang felt no pride in it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Among the top-ranked Zanpakutō, Shikai and Bankai abilities are mostly rule-level.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For example, Urahara Kisuke’s Zanpakutō, Kurotsuchi, Bankai—Kannon Opens Crimson Kagerō Revised.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Within the Bankai’s range, Urahara Kisuke can reconstruct anything touched by his Zanpakutō—whether an enemy’s body or his own.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The only ability Chu Yang possessed at this level was Haki, but his Haki was still not strong enough.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Second was the Source Breathing, which kept improving with terrifying potential—perhaps one day evolving into a rule-level technique.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chu Yang himself hadn’t expected that the weakest-power world, Demon Slayer, had given him the greatest surprise.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If both Haki and Source Breathing reached a certain level, Chu Yang was confident he could defeat most Captain-level Shinigami of the Gotei 13.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…………………\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Since accepting the role of Substitute Shinigami, Kurosaki Ichigo had frequently been late or absent, and the frequency was increasing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To avoid disrupting his studies and to help Ichigo independently transform into a Shinigami, Rukia gave him a Gikongan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Gikongan’s essence was a temporary soul, designed to expel Ichigo’s soul from his body.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Gikongan Rukia obtained from Urahara Shop was defective—it contained not a temporary soul, but a modified soul.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The day after receiving the Gikongan, the modified soul caused a major disturbance at school.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chu Yang silently watched all of this unfold.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This meant his time to enter the Soul Society was drawing nearer.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>……\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Pirate World.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A certain island in the New World.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The azure sky was cloudless;

Lachi Lu and Jesus Boot had placed heavy wagers—if they lost, both would be penniless this month, let alone daily roast meat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“When Yang first joined, I thought only his body technique was impressive—he handled Fishman Karate like a true Fishman. But within days, he became a swordsman.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ship’s doctor Degē shouted loudly: “He’s only held a sword for a few days, yet he grows stronger every day—he’s almost caught up to the captain.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jesus Boot paused polishing his gun, glancing sideways at Degē: “Itachi’re wrong. In swordsmanship, Yang’s won multiple times. It’s the captain who’s catching up to him.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Degē glared fiercely at Jesus Boot: “This time, the captain will win!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jesus Boot sneered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“If Itachi two can’t judge objectively, then just shut up,” Vice Captain Ben Beckman said, puffing a cigar beside them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jesus Boot and Degē asked in unison: “Who are Itachi betting on, Vice Captain?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Beckman answered instinctively: “Of course Yang.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Degē: “...”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>While the crew argued over who would win,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On the distant island, the battle neared its end.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chu Yang had entered the Demon Mark state, Source Breathing fully unleashed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shanks felt immense pressure and instinctively activated his Haki.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He didn’t even realize…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had wrapped his Haki around [Griffin] like Armament Haki!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The two blades clashed violently.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The black lightning erupting from [Griffin] and the radiant bands from Chu Yang’s Source Breathing slammed together.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Brilliant light instantly engulfed both men.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On the Red Devil, countless crew members watched, holding their breath.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When the light faded,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chu Yang’s wooden sword had snapped into two pieces.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Oh no!!!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>How could we possibly lose?!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I bet all my monthly allowance on this!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Could Yang be fixing the match?!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Beckman and Jesus looked like wilted eggplants, drooping and lifeless, while Deguo, who had bet on Shanks winning, grinned so wide his mouth seemed to stretch to the back of his head.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lazzi Lu patted Jesus on the shoulder, offering a look of shared misery.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On the island, Shanks stared blankly down at [Griffin].\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Chanrao  of Bawangse  meant Shanks had officially entered the level of a Pirate Emperor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chu Yang also felt a revelation, closing his eyes to carefully recall that moment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If he could master the Chanrao  of Bawangse , his strength would surge dramatically.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shanks raised [Griffin] again and slashed hard—black lightning erupted from the blade.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Hahaha!!!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shanks threw his head back and laughed, a flood of bold ambition surging in his heart.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He clearly felt his Bawangse  growing stronger.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chu Yang suddenly opened his eyes, clenched his fists, and black lightning coiled around them too.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shanks’ laughter cut off instantly!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He stared in stunned disbelief at the Bawangse  aura coiling around Chu Yang’s fists.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Soul Reaper world.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Recently, a medium named Tang Guanyinsi had appeared on TV and was all the rage—every classmate was copying his signature moves.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was like a cult spreading its doctrine.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even Chado, that broad-featured guy, was having a blast joining in.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tonight, Tang Guanyinsi was doing a live exorcism broadcast from an abandoned hospital—Chado asked Chu Yang if he wanted to come along, but Chu Yang flatly refused.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had no interest in that half-baked guy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chu Yang wanted to go to Urahara Shop to ask Urahara Kisuke about Soul Reapers, but no matter how he pressed Rukia, she stubbornly refused to tell him the shop’s location.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Urahara Kisuke seemed to be avoiding him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But it didn’t matter—according to the story’s pace, Urahara Kisuke wouldn’t have anywhere left to hide soon.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thinking of this, Chu Yang turned his gaze to the classmate named Ishida Uryuu.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This one of the last surviving Quincy in the human world would soon cause a massive uproar in Karakura.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Quincy were a group capable of absorbing reishi from the environment and shaping it into weapons to annihilate Hollows.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unlike Soul Reapers, who purified Hollows’ evil, the Quincy completely erased them from existence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When a Hollow was utterly destroyed, its reishi vanished entirely, breaking the cycle between the Soul Society and the human world, thus disrupting soul balance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thus, two hundred years ago, the Soul Reapers launched a massacre against the Quincy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only a handful survived to carry on to this day.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ishida Uryuu was the last surviving Quincy in the human world.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This account came from the Soul Reapers.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But its truth was questionable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For the Quincy’s founder, Yhwach, had led them in an invasion of the Soul Society a thousand years ago, causing massive chaos.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Yhwach’s ambition failed—he fell beneath the blade of Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni, founder and captain-commander of the Gotei 13.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Otherwise, the Soul Society might now be ruled by the Quincy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Perhaps because their existence posed a threat, the Soul Reapers had ruthlessly exterminated them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The real reason?

If I don’t become one, the Soul Society will eventually classify me as a Hollow.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Magic Chu Yang understood, then smiled: “Becoming a Soul Reaper isn’t a bad option.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Pirate Chu Yang frowned: “If Itachi become a Soul Reaper, what about the Thousand-Year Blood War? Itachi’re not planning to bet your life on Ichigo Kurosaki, are Itachi?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Soul Reaper Chu Yang shook his head: “Of course not—I won’t entrust my life to anyone. That’s why I need your help.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this, every “Chu Yang” turned their gaze to him. Soul Reaper Chu Yang looked at Naruto Chu Yang and said solemnly: “I need Six Paths power!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Naruto Chu Yang frowned: “Six Paths power? Itachi mean the power of the Ten-Tails Jinchūriki?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Soul Reaper Chu Yang teased: “Can Itachi get the Ten-Tails right now?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Naruto Chu Yang rolled his eyes: “Dream on.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Pirate Chu Yang joined in: “Set a small goal—if we pull it off, we can all just lie down and relax.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Demon Slayer Chu Yang clicked his tongue: “I’m already lying down—what now?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Enough joking,” Soul Reaper Chu Yang chuckled. “I don’t mean the full power of the Sage of Six Paths in his prime. Think of it as Naruto’s later state.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Magic Chu Yang thought for a moment: “Itachi mean the special state where Sage Mode activates the Sage of Six Paths’ chakra—I recall that state allows Yin-Yang Release.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Creating things from nothing and granting life—it’s far more terrifying than Wood Release.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“The Nine Tailed Beasts were created by the Sage of Six Paths using Yin-Yang Release.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Exactly,” Soul Reaper Chu Yang explained. “Without the Ten-Tails, this is nearly the Sage of Six Paths’ strongest state. As his descendant, we can trace that power through our bloodline.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Magic Chu Yang froze: “Itachi’re not thinking of copying Uchiha Madara…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Soul Reaper Chu Yang nodded: “He obtained the Rinnegan using part of Hashirama’s cells—that proves my idea works. And we’ll do it better than he did.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Naruto Chu Yang asked: “Why do Itachi think so?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Soul Reaper Chu Yang pointed at Pirate Chu Yang and grinned: “Because in the One Piece world, we can find bloodline factor technology—whether it’s Vegapunk or Sanji’s father, Vinsmoke Judge—they’re all stronger than Orochimaru in this field.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The other “Chu Yangs” gasped in shock.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Pirate Chu Yang widened his eyes: “Itachi really think big!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Soul Reaper Chu Yang scanned the group—everyone was the same person; their thoughts were clear from their expressions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everyone was tempted!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Soul Reaper Chu Yang smiled smugly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“We should definitely try it.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Magic Chu Yang, the strategist and research specialist, was the first to nod in agreement.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One after another, the “Chu Yangs” followed suit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only Pirate Chu Yang grimaced: “Bloodline factor tech isn’t easy to get—Vinsmoke’s family wanders like vagrants, with no fixed home, and Vegapunk? He’s a core researcher for the World Government!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Soul Reaper Chu Yang winked at him: “Shanks has an unusual background—if all else fails, go through his connections.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Go screw yourself—why don’t Itachi go through his connections?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“We’re all the same person—if Itachi go, it’s the same as me going.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I’ve got no interest. If Itachi want to go, go yourself.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Itachi two better mean an actual back door, not some crude joke.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The group erupted in sarcastic remarks.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The plan was settled—after all, Six Paths power was right there. Who wouldn’t crave it?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Sage of Six Paths, the pinnacle of power in the Naruto world, had transcended its entire combat framework and reached the soul level.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He stood on the same tier as the Soul Reaper world.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He himself had surpassed reincarnation; his true combat power was incalculable. Add the Ten-Tails’ power, and his strength was unimaginable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One wonders whether the peak Sage of Six Paths or Yamamoto Genryūsai Shigekuni, captain-commander of the Gotei 13, was stronger.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But it was certain: if Soul Reaper Chu Yang obtained the Six Paths Sage Mode, combined with Source Breathing and Conqueror’s Haki, he would surpass most Soul Reaper captains.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He’d surely survive the Thousand-Year Blood War.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I envy Itachi guys—Itachi’re living such exciting lives.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Marvel Chu Yang sighed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“If Itachi’re desperate, why not join my logistics team?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Magic Chu Yang grinned mischievously.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Both of them had relatively ideal research environments—one at Hogwarts, the other at Stark Industries—one representing magic, the other science.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Magic plus science seems more promising?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Death God Chu Yang’s eyes lit up, and he began brainstorming again!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“My side isn’t exactly stable,” said Marvel Chu Yang, scratching his head. “Nick Fury is watching me—he keeps trying to pull me into S.H.I.E.L.D.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“S.H.I.E.L.D. has been completely infiltrated by Hydra. Should I follow Captain America’s example, walk in, shout ‘Hail Hydra,’ and play spy?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Magic Chu Yang reminded him: “I’ve already found a substitute formula for wand cores. Once I master the three Unforgivable Curses, Itachi can control Hydra using the Imperius Curse.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Marvel Chu Yang immediately became interested.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unlike other worlds, the Marvel world has many ordinary people who cannot resist the Imperius Curse.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Casting the Imperius Curse here won’t draw investigation—though the Sorcerer Supreme might notice afterward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Cruciatus Curse faces no restrictions either.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Wait until Itachi learn the Imperius Curse,” said Marvel Chu Yang. “I don’t want to wade into this mess now. Right now, learning knowledge is more important—especially about the Iron Man suit and the Arc Reactor.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Magic Chu Yang grinned. “I saw your college days in my memories. Itachi looked pretty good.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Marvel Chu Yang shrugged. “About the same as Itachi at Hogwarts.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Magic Chu Yang said: “Here’s a tip: when Itachi truly get the chance to control Hydra, try to get your hands on the Tesseract and the Mind Stone.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“The Tesseract’s energy can create a Captain Marvel; the Mind Stone inside the scepter can create Vision. Such immense power is worth exploiting.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Ignore the other Infinity Stones—don’t attract Thanos prematurely.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Marvel Chu Yang nodded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At that moment, mist filled the palace; everyone knew it was time to leave.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>(End of Chapter)\u003C\u002Fp>",5552,"2026-06-20T16:23:12.107Z",1,"Qwen3-Next 80B","a62cebe73f3e8fb6a7ae722587fc19567635e21e2b51e9230ca06ce0ae2d4191","simultaneously-transmigrated-starting-from-narut-chapter-103","simultaneously-transmigrated-starting-from-narut-chapter-101",498,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fsimultaneously-transmigrated-starting-from-narut-cover.jpg"]
