DxD: Trait Plunderer

Time flowed by, and in the blink of an eye, one night passed.

When Rangiku woke up again, her face was full of confusion.

Who am I? Where am I? What am I doing?

Looking at the unfamiliar ceiling above her head, she felt her mind was blank, with a sense of amnesia.

Click!

The door to the room was pushed open, and Rias walked in from outside.

"Good morning, Matsumoto-san."

"Good morning, Rias."

Rangiku rubbed her forehead. "It seems I drank too much last night, did you send me back to my room?"

"It wasn't me, it was Tatsuma."

Rias's expression was a bit subtle. "Did you forget everything that happened last night?"

"What happened last night?"

Rangiku tried hard to recall. A few seconds later, she suddenly widened her eyes and let out a gasp.

"I sold myself?!"

"It seems you haven't completely forgotten."

Rias placed the clothes in her hand on the bed and said, "Your Shinigami uniform can't be worn anymore, wear this set first."

Rangiku: "..."

That really couldn't be worn anymore.

Looking at the fragments of the Shinigami uniform on the ground nearby, Rangiku was a bit silent.

After regretting not having money last night, she once again regretted the matter of drinking.

Drinking ruins things!

What is this? Walking right into a trap?

Changing her clothes with a complicated mood, Rangiku looked at Rias. "Where is the Captain Commander? Why don't I see him?"

"He is going to Mount Meru to see Indra today, he left not long ago."

"Oh right, Tatsuma asked me to give you this. With it, you can freely enter and exit the Nest of Maggots."

Rias took out a golden token.

The token looked like it was made of pure gold, and its surface emitted the aura of Reiatsu and natural energy.

Reaching out and grasping the token, a cold, refreshing sensation came from it. As if having taken a hangover cure, the discomfort after drinking quickly dissipated, and a surge of vitality rose from deep within her body.

"Good stuff!"

Rangiku's eyes lit up, and she hung the token on her waist.

Although she had vaguely sold herself, it didn't seem like a particularly bad deal now. Not only did she gain permission to freely enter and exit the Nest of Maggots, but she also got a token for free.

With this thing around, she would never be afraid of drinking too much again. Rangiku, who was still regretting drinking a few minutes ago, was once again itching to drink.

Rangiku asked, "Rias, is there any wine left from last night?"

Rias nodded. "There is, but don't drink in the early morning, let's just eat breakfast normally."

"Okay."

Drinking in the early morning really wasn't good, maybe she could see if she could take the token as a local specialty when she left later.

"Speaking of which, if the Captain Commander isn't here, how should I return to the Soul Society?"

Rias thought for a moment and said, "I can help you contact the Soul Society and go back directly through Teleportation Magic."

"Then I'll trouble you."

Rangiku breathed a sigh of relief.

To be honest, her mood was a bit complicated now. If she saw Tatsuma, she would feel very awkward.

Since Rias could help, she would just use the Gremory passage to return to the Soul Society later.

...

At the same time, Mount Meru.

Faint spatial fluctuations rose, and a giant white dragon appeared out of thin air.

"We've arrived, Red Dragon Emperor. This is Mount Meru."

"Should I say it lives up to its name as a legendary divine mountain? It's even more magnificent than I imagined."

On Yu-Long's head, Tatsuma and Sun Wukong stood side by side, gazing into the distance.

Amidst the swirling clouds and mist, a giant mountain peak emitting divine light was faintly visible.

Spiritual trees towered in the mountains, rays of light flowed, and waterfalls cascaded down from thousand-foot cliffs, like a silver river falling from the sky, fully displaying the vastness of nature..

"Haha! Red Dragon Emperor, what you see now is only a part of Mount Meru." Sun Wukong laughed out loud.

"If you're interested, I can show you around later."

"That depends on Indra's reply." Tatsuma shrugged, his expression as leisurely and calm as ever, not at all like someone who was about to fight Indra.

"It seems there's a show to watch today."

Yu-Long was in high spirits, carrying Tatsuma and Sun Wukong all the way towards Mount Meru.

Perhaps curious about Indra's reply, his speed today was slightly faster than usual. In just a few minutes, the three of them arrived at the summit of Mount Meru.

In front of the giant shrine, a man wearing sunglasses was already in position.

Seeing the other party, Sun Wukong leaped, jumping down from Yu-Long's body.

"Heavenly Emperor, I've brought the person to you."

Tatsuma jumped down with him, arriving in front of Indra. "Good morning, Indra."

"You are the Red Dragon Emperor?"

Indra narrowed his eyes and sized up the young man in front of him, dressed in a black shirt, with an exceptionally young face.

As if merged with this world, there was no trace of aura emanating from him. At first glance, Indra even had the thought that the other party was just an ordinary person.

But very quickly, he dismissed this thought from his mind.

Everything in the world has its original spirit. As a Divine Emperor residing high in the Thirty-Three Heavens, Indra could easily see through the essence of things and understand their inner composition. But on Tatsuma, he couldn't see anything.

"It seems the intelligence wasn't very reliable. Your strength should be more than just comparable to a God King, right?"

"Who knows?"

Tatsuma shrugged and let out a light chuckle.

"Want to experience it yourself, Indra?"

"Since you've said this much, if I refuse, I would bring shame to the name of the God of War."

Indra's lips curved slightly upward, and his aura rose sharply.

Tatsuma's strength was indeed very great, but he wasn't a pushover either.

Surging divine power wildly surged, and a golden armor quietly appeared. Indra wore the golden armor, held a vajra in his hand, and his aura reached its peak.

"It's been a long time since I've seen the Heavenly Emperor like this."

Sun Wukong activated Senjutsu, taking Yu-Long back to the sky a hundred miles away.

Looking at the man and the god confronting each other in front, his face showed a look of emotion, as if he was a bit nostalgic.

"Monkey, who do you think will win?" Yu-Long asked curiously.

"If I hadn't seen the Red Dragon Emperor, I would think the Heavenly Emperor had a greater chance of winning, but now..."

Sun Wukong narrowed his eyes. "The Heavenly Emperor's chance of winning is less than ten percent, or even lower."

Sun Wukong was very sensitive to natural energy and had practiced Senjutsu to an extremely high level.

Looking at the entire world, there were very few people who could compare with him in Senjutsu, he was practically the world's number one. At least before seeing Tatsuma, Sun Wukong had always thought so.

However, after seeing Tatsuma, his idea changed. Tatsuma's Senjutsu had reached an unfathomable level, practically an embodiment of nature.

Only those who had practiced Senjutsu to a certain level would understand how terrifying Tatsuma's Senjutsu were.

"Huh? Is the gap that big?"

Yu-Long, who was originally just watching, was startled by Sun Wukong's words.

"The gap will only be bigger than you imagine."

Sun Wukong took out a bucket of popcorn, snacking on them while looking at Indra in golden armor in front.

"The Heavenly Emperor is not proficient in Senjutsu, but he has the ability to discern people and can see through the essence of things."

"Perhaps it was precisely because he realized how terrifying the Red Dragon Emperor was that he went all out from the start."

"So that's how it is."

Yu-Long suddenly understood, finally realizing why Indra was so serious.

No longer distracted by chatting with Sun Wukong, he also looked towards the battlefield ahead.
