Mission PT-2

Inside the classroom,

"I'll get you next time, Sasaki." As he gazed at Sasaki flying away with the Esper that he had just fought for his life, Renji discharged a tremendous amount of fire from one half of his body and a massive amount of ice from the other.

Renji could clearly see Sasaki smirking at him as he flew over the skies with Esper, and he began venting his rage on the class, which had nothing to do with the situation.

He began to burn down the room with his fires, which seemed to burn and envelop the entire space. Soon, the entire room had turned black as coal, with all of the walls and ceiling dyed black and all of the furniture and equipment used by students during classes reduced to nothing more than ash on the floor.

Black smoke emitted from the classroom and began blowing beyond the window, spreading smoke into the air visible to anyone outside the school.

'How did he know I was here, but anyway?' There was no way he could have discovered this.' Out of frustration, Renji bit one of his fingers, and blood started to come blurtings put while continuously blasting flames from his body.

He began to move back and forth inside the black bleach classroom, then remembered a girl with green hair and round spectacles who had bolted out after Sasaki had ordered her to.

He rushed up to the window and gazed out at the field outside the school. There, he noticed a green-haired girl hurrying out of the school grounds. Her legs trembled as he ran out of the grounds with a terrified expression on her face. She couldn't think of anything else but running for her life at the moment as she remembered the supernatural happening in the classroom just now. She fell over several times before making it out of the school grounds.

Renji smirked as he mentally etched the image of the girl. His flames died away completely, and the ice on his body began to scatter across the room, freezing everything inside. The room had become black iced as a result of the ice and ash combo.

"I'll keep you and your face, green head in mind. You will be the bait used to entice Haise to come to me, he is just a newbie with a weak heart, he would come to save you if he finds out your life is in danger because of him. Hehehe!" He laughed evilly as he watched the girl go out of the school. Every second, his lips curled up, intensifying his smile.

Despite this, he never considered the idea that he would be there to save her or meet her after arriving in this world because he was never close to him and so never got to know his family. As a result, he concluded that he saved that girl from him in order to kill her later in order to increase his kill count, and he arrived here to kill her after spotting a red dot on the map.

He walked out of the room casually, as if he had never wrecked the place and was simply doing what was natural after losing his target. As he began to stroll down the stairs, he appeared to have set his prey and the chase for the hunt had begun, his eyes resembled those of a hunter.

'All of you were lucky because you were probably transmigrated to a comfortable place, but for me, who was born on Shiki's island, I had to face so many difficulties because when I regained consciousness, I was a worker at his base and I was at the division that was responsible for capturing evolved animals, and each of those had abnormally tough bodies with insane physical powers, and some were even able to produce electricity and others.'

Shiki lived on an island that levitated high in the air because of his devil fruit power, and each of the islands was huge in size, with the survival of the fittest dominating their ecosystem. The animals who live there have evolved as a result of a peculiar plant that grows there, and each of them is a monster in its own right. Many of them have the power to rival that of a sea king.

Shiki and his scientist, Indigo, bred a slew of mutant animals with the aim of assembling an army to take over the world. A land-walking squid, giraffes as tall as skyscrapers, and an enormous turtle-like creature were among the species displayed 22 years ago.

The creatures there have weapons in their bodies and can even use elements like electricity and have other weapons in their body, thanks to a unique IQ plant that only grew on those islands.

Only the strongest could survive on the island, and it was a location where one had to exceed their limits in order to survive while hunting and collecting such creatures.

'It's just been six months since we were in that world. There's no way any of us could take on an Esper on our own in the body of a size-aged child. It is more like a filter to choose the best that used their time to develop stronger, even if they were in the body of children.'

Besides the river,

"How are you still alive after having such a hole in your body? It has healed completely in some minute no its more like seconds." Izumi had a concerned expression on her face, coupled with amazement, after seeing the massive hole in his body entirely healed.

Sasaki turned around to face Izumi and began staring at her incessantly. That was frightening, but his children's expressions made it appear cute as he stared at her. His mind was filled with memories. He was utterly immersed in his thoughts and had forgotten what she had just asked of him.

She touched his head like a child would as he looked at her with puppy eyes and an unintentionally cutesy face.

"I know you're scared, but thank you for saving my life. I apologize for asking about things I should not have asked."

Sasaki abruptly stopped glancing at her face and smiled broadly. He was overjoyed to finally meet her after such a long time. He missed her the most while he was away from this world.

"Oh! I, too, am an Esper, and this is my capacity to heal any wound, no matter how severe, and I would appreciate it if you didn't dig farther into my powers." Sasaki smiled pleasantly at her as she patted his head, thinking it should have been the other way around. 'Well, beggars can't be choosers, can they?'

"I won't ask for anything else, and I want to thank you again for saving my life." Izumi managed to get to her feet, and as she got up, her legs trembled from the cold. She couldn't even feel her legs anymore. She collapsed on the ground after a few seconds as her legs could no longer sustain her weight.

"I can't get up. It's difficult to even feel my legs." She grabbed her legs and began to massage them to see if that would help, but it didn't since her blood and muscles were stiff and there was a risk she wouldn't be able to move her leg if she was left like that.

Sasaki grabbed her leg to check her temperature, and with only a simple touch on the legs, he could feel the ice-cold blood and muscles that had come from being trapped inside ice for an extended period of time.

"I think you should soak your legs in hot water. It will aid with temperature regulation." Sasaki expressed his concern in a worried tone.

Izumi noticed Sasaki's concerned and worried expression after touching the temperature of her legs. His face was desperate, and he wanted to do something to help her.

"There's no reason to be worried! I'll be alright after a little rest, and you should leave quickly now. I can look after myself."

Sasaki ignored her words and attempted to carry her on his back. Because he was half Fishman, he was five times stronger than a typical human.

"You can't lift me. I mean, you're so little. Just leave me alone." She tried to push Sasaki and stop him from carrying her, but even with all her strength, she couldn't move him an inch.

She was startled the next second when Sasaki carried her without any difficulty and even began moving while carrying her on his back.

"I'll drop you off at your house, and I'm not going to listen to any excuses."

"It's a little awkward to be carried by a kid, but you're surprisingly strong for a kid."

"I was born powerful, and this is nothing."

Izumi recognized a resemblance to her brother in the way he spoke and even in his appearance. As she stared at him, she couldn't help but think about him.

"From the way you behave and even your appearance, you remind me a lot of my brother."

"Oh! You must adore your brother; what is he like?"

"In terms of looks, he had the same scar on the side of his lips, which I thought looked cool, and your face resembled him, as does your behavior."

While carrying his sister on his back, Sasaki smiled as he listened to her description. He had no idea his sister had such a strong impression of him.

'This scar just reminds me of when I went back to school after they tormented me.'

"We're near the streets. You can just take a cab home."

"I appreciate you carrying me all the way here. I owe you one."

Sasaki sat her down on a nearby bench to allow her to arrange a cab online. She unlocked her phone and began tapping on the screen to book a cab.

"Don't worry about it; just go on a diet; my back hurts from carrying you all the way here."

"You brat, I am the most fit girl in the entire school, with the highest grades in PT and other extracurricular activities."

She punched Sasaki in the head for calling her heavy, and she looked at him with a furiously cute expression.

"Ouch! People can't be honest these days."

Sasaki sat alongside her, rubbing the spot where he had just been hit. He wanted to ask her many questions but couldn't bring himself to do so, and he didn't want to make them sad by leaving after exposing his identity.

"I'll follow you to your house. I'd like a treat for saving your life."

"Huh! I don't mind if you come if you want."

'I have to make sure she gets home safely. I'm not sure how she became an Esper, but her life is in risk as a result.'

A cab pulled up right in front of them, and they both got in. While they were driving to her house, he asked her about schools and other topics.

In his home,

"Is this your place? It's really cool."

Sasaki walked her inside her home by grabbing her arm. Her legs made it difficult for her to walk.

"That's right. It's nothing extraordinary, simply a house big enough for a family of four, but it's down to three now."

Sasaki understood what she meant and avoided further investigation. The prospect of discussing his own death did not sit well with him.

"If it's okay with you, I'd like to ask you a question."

"Oh! "I'll respond if I can."

Sasaki took a long breath, not knowing how they received Esper's abilities, and it was possible that all of the Espers gained power from a common source.

"How did you get your Esper abilities? I'm interested in that."

Izumi lay down on the sofa as Sasaki prepared a hot bath for her. He had lived there his entire life and had just asked her if he could make her a bath.

He was only six years old. She never questioned his motives because kids were meant to be pure.

"I'm not sure. It made its debut after I lost my brother. I've met other Espers who had lost a close family and suddenly awoke the power."

Sasaki grasped the gist of things and came up with two scenarios for their awakening powers.

'It merely randomly awakens after losing someone due to tremendous emotions, and it doesn't happen to everyone, only the exceptional.'

'It may also be family members of transmigrants who were awakened. It denotes God's intervention in making this mission a source of conflict.'

"Oh! The same here. I was also separated from my sister, and you remind me of her."

"We have something in common. You also remind me of my brother. Hehehe!"

Sasaki escorted her to the bathroom. He was acting very familiar with the house, but Izumi didn't notice it. She just let Sasaki walk around like he owned the place.

He left her in the bathroom and walked into the living room to begin watching some One Piece anime. He wanted to catch up on the most recent episodes because a year had passed here.

After a half-hour,

Izumi was able to walk normally after taking a hot water bath and went to the living room where Sasaki was watching anime.

"I'll make you something special. If I do so so myself, I am a fairly decent cook."

"Sure, Izumi, I'll have some pastries for the time being." Sasaki appeared to be overly familiar with the location and asked his usual while watching anime on TV.

Izumi had the impression that her brother was speaking to her when he addressed her by name and asked for sweets while watching anime.

Sasaki realized he had addressed her by name after responding to her and he never asked her for her name this time around.

'Crap! I appeared to be my old self, as I used to do. These bodily reflexes are simply difficult to overcome.'

When he asked him to bring her pastry, she thought it for a coincidence till she realized it.

'I never told him who I was. How did he know my name?'

Izumi rushed over to Sasaki, who had discovered the same thing she had, but he was gone by the time she returned to the room.

He left the house after realizing he had forgotten to ask her name this time.

Sasaki was standing outside her house. He was able to run away just as she entered the room.

'I need money so that I can get a decent place to live while I'm at the mission.'

Sasaki began to stroll towards the alleyway frequented by gangs and shady characters, where robbing was common, and where he had previously been robbed.

Sasaki stepped into the alleyway. It looked shady, with a short road that could only fit two persons at a time, and he could smell cigars and alcohol in the air.

'There are some idiots that drink in the middle of the day. It's clearly my luck.'

Sasaki took a black T-shirt that was a touch girly because it belonged to Izumi, but he didn't have an option because it was his only T-shirt.

Sasaki spotted four teenage boys wearing school uniforms drinking and smoking in the middle of the day. They appeared to be ordinary delinquents, with buffed bodies and scars on their arms. In his opinion, those type of people made the lives of innocent students more difficult.

'Today, I'm going to fight some delinquents. I remember fighting bullies after returning to school the last time, and that day I murdered four bullies.'

Sasaki walked upon this gang of delinquents and seemed to be just passing through.

One of the delinquents grabbed him by the shoulder and tightened his grip.

"You have to pay if you want to pass through here."

'Exactly as expected!'

With a piercing glance and a sneer on his face, Sasaki glared at them.

"F**k you, don't you think it's wrong to ask a six-year-old for money?"

From all the drinking and smoking, they were completely out of it. They couldn't tell the difference between a child and an adult.

They only stared at him. They didn't even grasp what Sasaki had just said, and Sasaki realized that his words would have no effect on them.

Sasaki extended his middle finger to prove his point.

"This bastard, get him!"

Three people charged at him, but Sasaki kicked one of them and fell on the other two bodies.

Sasaki, their apparent leader with a buffed body and very long hair that had never been brushed in her entire life, got on.

The guy launched a punch at Sasaki, but it was easily caught, and Sasaki kicked his head in mid-air, knocking him unconscious. His kicks were excessively forceful due to his experience as a fisherman and his extensive training.

"How can you lose to a kid, boss?"

Sasaki kicked the guy who had just spoken and knocked him out with a punch on the face that broke some teeth, while the other two went out after receiving two punches on the face.

Sasaki began examining their pockets for money and other valuable items. He began with their leader's pockets and extracted $600 with a cigar.

With the three cigars, the other three had a grand total of $400.

Sasaki took all of their money and valuables.

"A total of $1,000, not bad at all."

Sasaki now had enough money to last him a few days. He was pleased after teaching them to waste their days at school rather than outside. It was a waste anyways in his opinion.

'This is still a ridiculous amount of money for a high school student to carry. It's most likely extortion, but I don't care. They asked for it. I never make them mad. This is for not killing them.'

From a distance, he observed a fat boy with glasses staring at him. With a smirk on his face, he began to approach Sasaki. He appeared overjoyed after seeing all of the bullies beaten down by him.

"Hey bro, That is my money, a total of $500, that they extorted from me. I saved it months ago so I could play the latest video games. Please hand it on to me."

ಠ_ಠ "Video games?"

He had a desperate look on his face. He wanted to reclaim his money from him.

"It's a new video game model. It's becoming very trendy these days. I'll let you play if you give me my money. I know you're a good kid."

Sasaki shook his head.

"Kid, don't make fun of me. They came first, and now you?" Fatty needed to get the money.

*Baam*

Sasaki struck him down with a punch to the flabby right side of his face. After listening to his babbling, he became irritated.

"I don't give a damn. Take care of your own problem."

"I never took any of your money. You cowardly wimp, demand the money from those who took it. This is my money now."

Sasaki exited the alleyway with an innocent smile on his face, making him appear to be a normal kid out for a stroll. No one would believe had just beaten up a gang of bullies and a helpless victim.
