Chapter 1054 Just a Big Coward
Chaos couldn't stop the red and white lights' rampage because he could feel Kisuke's attention on him and any movement from him will just be a wasted effort, "...How?" He asked in a fuming rage.
"A tech from a civilization that managed to successfully take over and end numerous worlds like this one." Kisuke explained while smirking, "It disregards most of the restrictions placed on the boundaries between space and instead directly connects two points through a different dimension."
But even after his explanation, Chaos couldn't understand how that was possible, '...This is my world! How!?'
At that moment, he felt a massive aura and frightening aura explode behind him. He immediately turned around to see the white armor was now emanating the power of a God along with other unknown powers. As he saw him gather his power in both of his hands, a slight threat, for the first time in a very long time, awakened his instincts.
It was when the flash of silvery-white and black light erupted from Vali that Chaos finally realized the danger if more like him went through the strange portal, 'I can't move now, I can't stop what I'm doing now, and I can't seem to close that pathway!'
Now with the tables turned against him, Chaos didn't hesitate to decide his next course of action, 'Although I don't have complete information on that side, I know for sure that Kisuke Urahara isn't well-liked so there shouldn't be any substantial reinforcements after this. On top of that, they can't stay here for too long as the vacuum they left is too big and the consequences of that aren't small.'
Without waiting any further, Chaos instantly turned into a black goo and dropped to the ground before sipping through it, 'Until I get that power...'
Seeing that, Kisuke immediately turned to Vali and warned him, "Get away from that spot now if you don't want to be trapped."
Vali listened to his warning and flew towards the direction where Issei went. He immediately caught up to him thanks to the boost he received from his current form, but also immediately dispelled his Scale Mail and stood on Issei's back to hitch a ride on him. That form was very powerful but it's not something that should be maintained meaninglessly since its mileage is the worst and it's really only useful when he wants to end a fight quickly.
Half a minute later, a black wall surrounding the entirety of the former Orario emerged from the ground and shot up to meet in the middle, forming a 500-meter-tall dome.
"I know you told me that it's possible for him to just escape and avoid fighting, but to think that he would really lock himself up..." Yoruichi muttered, "That guy has smaller balls than I thought."
Kisuke gauged the wall and found out that he can't penetrate it with his scanning ability, "One thing is for sure. He can see many things but that doesn't mean he understands what he's seeing. Aside from being a coward, he's also dumber than I thought."
If Kisuke was in his position right now, he would have pulled out all the stops and attempted to clean them up as fast as possible. Yet he decided to give them more space and retreated instead, 'The reason why we turned the tables on him was that he gave us time to prepare, yet he's doing that again. Is the thing in the very depths of the Dungeon that important, or is he really just that dumb?'
Kisuke really hates it if the enemy was ambitious and dumb at the same time. Those are the only types of people he couldn't read properly.
Soon, the aura of Deities approaching this area also disappeared as if they went somewhere else and both Kisuke and Yoruichi concluded that they were teleported inside the barrier Chaos made.
"What should we do now?" asked Yoruichi after figuring out that it was going to be very hard to breach the barrier without using a substantial amount of power on it.
"Let's return to everyone else first."
But before leaving, Kisuke took back Yoruichi and Serafall's Gigai that he used to bait the traitor, Odin.

A few minutes earlier, just after the children, Xenos, and Riveria who were escorting them went through Yoruichi's portal and its subsequent closure, Riveria hurried towards Hestia and asked what was going on.
"I... I also don't know. Hold on." Hestia immediately released her ability and manipulated what was left of the system to bring out the 'eyes' and watch what was going on.
And as soon as the screen lit up, it was just time for everyone to witness Yoruichi and Serafall's death.
"Nooo!!!" It was Line who let out a horrified shriek.
She was about to rush out without thinking but Riveria hurriedly grabbed her by the collar, "Riveria-sama!? We have to assist them now!" It was also at that moment that Odin grabbed their necks and snapped them.
The others who are watching were also devastated at Odin's sudden betrayal and the hope that they had, had all gone up into smoke with things going south. They knew that after Yoruichi and Serafall's turn, it would be their God and Goddesses who'd come up dead next.
"Don't do anything." Riveria replied while tightening her hold on Line, "It shouldn't have been that easy to ambush both Yoruichi and Serafall. Besides... Look."
Riveria urged everyone to watch the screen closely and also just in time to watch Kisuke rush towards Odin, "The first thing he would have done is to catch them yet he just let them fall to the ground. I would guess those are not their real bodies and they were just there to bait out the traitor."
Line started to calm down and watched what was happening closely and immediately found it weird. Although not a healer himself, Line knew for sure that it was actually hard to die with Kisuke around, at least from what she'd already heard from both Yoruichi and Serafall throughout the years.
Riveria let go of Line and also saw Hestia give a sigh of relief after her explanation, 'Although probably fake, it's still hard to see someone you care about suddenly die like that.'
However, they couldn't watch the situation in peace as around a hundred Deities with black veins suddenly appeared outside Hestia's barrier and started bombarding it.
"This is bad." Hestia suddenly said, "The barrier won't last for more than a few days if they keep doing that."
Although that sounded long, everyone knew that they didn't know how long this war was going to go and any time limits on them right now doesn't bode well.
"Should we go in and out of the barrier and try to disturb them? That should buy us some time," Ais asked while bringing out her Draconic characteristics.
Ottar also stepped out, "I agree with her."
"It is very dangerous and the effect that would be doing is minimal..." Finn muttered while biting on his tongue, "But it's also the only contribution that we can provide."
"Let's form teams and randomize our attacks as much as possible." Bell also gave his opinion.
And while the leaders are planning what steps they should make, those on the side could only steel themselves, "Tione... I'm perplexed." asked Tiona.
"What a coincidence... Me too.", Tione replied, "Odin's betrayal should be a very big deal yet we aren't talking about it."
"Obviously because we can't worry about that now." Bete came to their side.
Tiona and Tione both looked at him with concerned expressions. Out of all the people here, he should be one of the heaviest burdens carrying in their consciousness, 'He sent Lena and their 2-year-old son away after the Dungeon Break to ensure their safety... Yet he ended up within one of the safest places in the world.', thought Tione, 'How is he coping with that? Maybe he's wishing he's one of those Minotaur brothers who only think of fighting and flexing their muscles?'
However, they luckily didn't have enough time to dwell on that as a woman, who was supposed to have died, suddenly appeared in the middle of the discussion and said while pointing up, "You all don't have to worry about that~! Reinforcements have arrived~!"
Everyone unconsciously followed the direction she pointed and it was unknown when, but an enormous mass of land was descending on their location.
