118 MHA Epilogue

[You are now 'The Strongest' in the MHA Universe.]

[MHA Universe has been Conquered.]

[Fate Controller for the MHA Universe has been unlocked.]

[Next Universe has been selected.]

Ignoring the prompts they came from killing both All For One and All Might due to the amount of XP they gave being insignificant Shen focused more on the four prompts that he had become more familiar with seeing. "And another bites the dust." Humming to himself with a slight smirk, Shen basically ignored Midoriya's mental state.

He wanted him to boil either he would become stronger out of it or he would become useless. If he truly did become stronger now that he had the Blades Of Chaos along with Shen's added bonuses then it might be worth unlocking all of his potential. 'Well, at least I managed to have fun while I was here.'

Making their way back to the base location Shen left Midoriya to himself before reaching the fortress he had transported here. He couldn't deny that making this thing able to float was well worth the extra time they spent making it. Before he didn't mind staying outside but he was still human and couldn't give up the feeling of comfort.

Walking through the main hall Shen spoke in a normal tone. "Rukia." In only seconds after speaking Shen detected a presence appear from behind him. Without turning around spoke. "Since the other universe is under control I plan on having you stay here with Midoriya till this one is put into the same state. He needs to grow stronger to serve his purpose so don't do everything for him just make sure things go smoothly."

Giving her instructions on how to deal with Midoriya Rukia nodded her head gently. Getting that out of the way Shen continued as he paused in his tracks. "Now then I want you to relay this to others when you get the chance." With a tone shift, Shen thought to himself for a moment. "The next Universe I'll be traveling to is almost guaranteed to be more dangerous than this one and probably stronger than your own meaning your services might be required. For the first week that I'm gone, I want you all to be on your guard and prepare to be transported to my position immediately.

Shen had made it clear multiple times that gathering all of them wanted just to manage the worlds he conquered otherwise he could just create clones for that. Instead, he wanted a large group of guards perfectly loyal and strong enough to guard him if he ever went against someone too strong to handle alone.

'With a legion of guards as strong as Rukia, Urahara, and possibly Midoriya along with multiple worlds under my command conquering new universes could be as simple as sending army's into them without having me have to lift a finger.' That would be the dream and if it worked as expected it would be perfect.

Understanding the subject of Shen's thoughts Rukia spoke. "Lord Shen, would it not be better to have me go with you? If you can not summon us in time you could possibly be killed." Speaking up, Shen glanced over at her with a hint of surprise. "Though taking you with me would be safer It could make things a lot worse."

Shen could already think of multiple situations where having Rukia or any of the others with him could instantly cause him to make enemies with the wrong people at the wrong time. The thought alone was enough to keep them here. And besides with the Hogyoku and his other abilities stacked on top of it he was semi-immortal in a way as long as he wasn't killed instantly and had the chance to escape.

Hearing Shen's shrewd response Rukia didn't push the request and simply remained silent. Soon after their talk, Rukia had already left and Shen had gone to his room at the top of the fortress. He wasn't going to bother gathering everyone like last time since he already has Rukia giving out his orders.

"Alright, I guess I should keep Kamui activated when I go through just in case."

Opening the System menu Shen began navigating through its functions before finally reaching Multiversal Traversion.

[Multiversal Traversion]

-Available Universes-

Bleach Universe [Status: Conquered]

MHA Universe [Status: Conquered]

??? Universe [Status: Uninterrupted]

Right before his eyes, the MHA Universe status began to change forming the word conquered. Crossing both Bleach and MHA out of his line of sight Shen set his eyes on the third universe that had appeared in the list. Letting his eyes hover over the new universe for a moment Shen smiled inwardly. 'Let's see what you have in store for me eh?'

A vortex appeared at Shen's direct position similar to Kamui it made his physical form twist and turn as his presence began to vanish from the MHA world. Down at the base, Rukia was informing Midoriya of what Shen wanted him to do before stopping. The two of them looked up in the same direction as Shen's presence began to disappear out of thin air.

The truth is Shen didn't know what happened during the mid-transaction. Going between universes meant he was in a space outside of both the laws of reality and fantasy. All he could see was darkness and all he could hear was the emptiness of the void. It was strange but he felt if he had to spend longer than a few seconds there he would go insane just from the lack of anything.

However, before his thoughts were allowed to wander a sound entered his ears. It was the sound of rain and more importantly the sound of fighting. Before he was even aware of what was going on he immediately activated Kamui on himself. Coming out of the vortex in the new world Shen's first instinct was to open his menu however he didn't.

Instead, he immediately disabled his Kamui allowing for the rain to fall onto him and his body and for the mud covering the ground to interact with his clothes. Only one word could escape from Shen's mouth as a grin slowly grew.

"Yes…"
