Everyone around Kisuke watched him suddenly stop. "What's wrong?", asked Sakura.
However, Kisuke didn't answer. Instead, he did some weird gestures on both of his wrists, as if he was tightening something. But a few seconds later, something unbelievable happened, as a pair of Devil wings suddenly sprouted behind him.
Everyone's eyes shot wide open when they saw this, but before they could ask anything, a second pair sprouted, then a third and finally a fourth.
"A-a noble!?", exclaimed a shocked Rias.
Except for Sakura and Cleria, everyone thought that he was a reincarnated Devil and just hid it. However, they didn't expect that Kisuke would suddenly sprout a total of eight wings, signifying that he had a very prominent noble Devil Bloodline, at least half.
Of course, even Sakura and Cleria were shocked. The former had already told the latter about the strange event where Kisuke's Devil Bloodline had been reduced to almost nonexistent, and they were shocked to see it manifesting right now. "K-Kisuke?", stuttered Sakura as she slowly approached him.
At that moment, Kisuke heaved a sigh of relief. He'd just finished putting his ever-growing Reiatsu-Ki under control. He then turned to Sakura because he'd heard her call, "Yeah?" It was then that his consciousness spread back to the surroundings and noticed something weird behind him, "Hmm?"
Kisuke's eye's widened slightly when he saw the four pairs of Devil wings behind him, but he instantly understood what happened, "Hooh? This is pretty cool~," muttered Kisuke while inspecting the wings.
"K-Kisuke... How do you feel?", inquired his flustered mom.
After inspecting his body in greater detail, Kisuke answered, "Aside from feeling a little bit bloated and some knowledge about a certain magic, everything is fine."
Kisuke still didn't know if the Hougyoku disappeared for good, but he highly doubted it. He would only be able to figure that out once he could do a complete scan on himself. And since the Hougyoku released his Devil Bloodline that it'd hid according to Benihime, the nature of his Mana changed into that of Demonic Power.
But not just that, since Devils naturally had Demonic Power, unlike Humans that needed to gather Mana from their surroundings, the Demonic Power intertwined with his Reiatsu-Ki and somehow connected with it. In addition, along with the change, a certain type of magic entered his mind.
"Don't use it!", instructed Sakura hastily.
Kisuke nodded at her because by using it, it would reveal the crest of the Belial Clan, and even if he could hide it, he wouldn't be able to hide its effects. Being such a unique magic, it was impossible that no one would recognize it among the upper echelons of the Underworld. They didn't want to reveal to others their connection to the Belial just yet.
"Well then, I'm off. Vali-san, I'll ask you to lead me to the Underworld later." Kisuke then, with the use of his wings, flew off, 'Wow, this is a new feeling~.' All this time, for him to fight airborne enemies, he had to create footholds to stay up.
'Benihime, how about you? What changed?' Kisuke purposely slowed down to ask his Zanpakuto.
But Benihime only chuckled, 'You'll have to use me if you want to find out~. Also, you'll have to thank your little friend for helping me out~.' However, her slight excitement was obvious for Kisuke.
'Hmm? Ophis? Fine. But before that, let's take a look at this monster.' Kisuke sped up his flight speed and reached the group fighting the monster, "Please allow me to assist~."
Grayfia already felt him coming closer but she couldn't help but be surprised when she saw the four pairs of wings behind him, "...You're a Devil?" Grayfia was even more taken aback when she saw a little girl casually riding his shoulders, "...And Ophis?"
"Is that important right now?"
Grayfia furrowed her brows. "Actually, yes.", she replied, but she also knew that this wasn't the right situation, and she also couldn't feel any hostility from the Dragon God, "You said you wanted to assist, but what can you do? As you may have noticed, none of our attacks could kill this monster, and all we can do is stall it until Beelzebub-sama finds a way to negate its abilities."
"Let me try a few things first." Kisuke then turned towards the other Devils who were fighting it, "Excuse me~! I'm going to cut it up!"
Without waiting for anyone's reply, Kisuke gathered his Reiatsu-Ki and muttered while swinging Benihime, "Kamisori, Benihime!"
With a whistling sound, a crimson flash instantly went through the 200-meter tall monster, splitting it from head to crotch, and created a deep crevice on the ground where it was standing.
The monster that Issei and his team failed to do anything beyond damaging its skin, was instantly cut in half.
"Hey now, where did this lad come from?" A man in his late twenties appeared beside Grayfia. He wore the traditional Shinsengumi uniform, which consisted of a haori and a hakama over a kimono, with a white cord called a tasuki crossed over the chest and tied in the back, "With that kind of power, comparable to Ultimate or Satan Class, why don't I recognize him? And is that the Infinite Dragon? Why is she riding his shoulders? I'm already old, but this is the first time I saw such a powerful being riding on anyone's shoulders."
"Souji-san... He's Kisuke Urahara.", answered Grayfia, but she ignored the question regarding Ophis.
Souji's eyes widened a little bit, "Oh? You mean that wanted man? He's this powerful? Then the bounty on him is very cheap."
Grayfia gritted her teeth, "No one knew that he was this powerful... Until recently, he was living a normal life as a Human. I still wonder how he managed to amass that kind of strength and still go around unnoticed. This is clearly ridiculous."
Souji saw Grayfia's reaction and said, "So you already investigated him... And found out everything you gathered is wrong. Well, it's okay to be frustrated." Souji then turned his attention back to Kisuke, who seemed to be preparing another attack towards the already regenerating monster.
"Nake, Benihime!" Kisuke swung his sword again and instead of a cutting wave, a blast of crimson energy exploded on the tentacles that were connecting the two halves that were trying to regenerate, interrupting its regeneration for a short moment.
He wanted to use a Kidou, but he didn't know what it'd result in now that his Reiatsu-Ki was intertwined with his Demonic Power. At least with his Zanpakuto, he would be sure that nothing would go wrong.
He then flew towards the monster as fast as he could and grabbed a piece of flesh that exploded out of the monster before retreating back.
Soon after, the monster was able to regenerate and was back to its full health, resuming the destruction on its path.
Grayfia's comrades, including Souji Okita, then resumed attacking the monster in hopes to stall it from going further.
"How is it?", asked Grafia.
"Well, the simplest way to kill that thing is to vaporize it in one go," answered Kisuke as he observed the pulsing black flesh in his hand.
Grayfia sighed. Although she didn't really like Kisuke, she still hoped that he would be able to do something. She was about to rejoin the battle when Kisuke suddenly murmured, "The 'simple' method is too tiring, and it may destroy the whole city along with it, so let's go with my method."
Grayfia abruptly stopped. From his words, she understood one thing, 'Is he saying that he has a way to vaporize that monster, but he's not doing it because it's too tiring and it may destroy the city!? How!?' The only people she knew who could do it were some old and ancient leaders of big mythology factions, and her husband with his Power of Destruction, 'Wait... He has Ophis with him... Maybe he was referring to her when he hinted he can destroy that thing through pure firepower.'
Grayfia got her bearings back and asked, "Your method? Are you going to do it now?"
"Yep~." Kisuke's blade returned to its former form of a blade hidden in a cane.
"What should we do?"
"Please stay away for a moment."
Grayfia thought for a moment before nodding. She then signaled the others to temporarily retreat.
With the monster free, it started even more wreaking havoc.
Kisuke breathed in deeply and smiled wildly, "Bankai!"

28th00: Ah, the casual flex of Phis-chama's shoulder ride~! I love how everyone is going "Wait, what?" at that. I agree, his bounty is FAR TOO LOW, even for a framejob! The personal carrier for Phis-chama deserves a far higher bounty than whatever it was previously! Time for some Bankai, reality was never prepared for this, especially after Phis-chama decided to somehow buff it even more. One thing is certain, she's gonna get her show now~!!
Alexander: That Grayfia, she still continues to underestimate him. Though I think that she does so to protect her sanity points.
