Hey guys! Long time no see! So I just gave up on watching gurren Lagann due to my chaotically busy schedule at work, so I'm going to need to use google for the time being, but I'll make it work.
Because who the hell do you think I am?
Also for the link monsters I use in my deck im making them contact fusion(which rin will need REN's help to learn how to use)
———————————————————————————————————-
You know, all my life ive seen lots of strange things while living in satellite, a buff man who wears a prison jumper and "takes care of" the male criminals, ive seen a duel runner that didn't run on electricity, but on raw sewage(god did that thing smell), ive even seen my brother "accidentally" kiss his emo friend when he leaned too close, so you would think me going to a spirit world to find myself a new deck wouldn't be bad, right?
Wrong. Because that Charon person pushed both rin and myself in and now we were skydiving without any parachute! I could hear Lulu screaming with tears flying out of her eyes as I try to keep my cool, there was no way we would die, because if I do, im coming back as a ghost and haunt Ren's ass so hard!
But as I look down at the void coming ever closer I see all the universes disappear until I see the orb with the symbol for inheritance and I see both lulu's body and my body disappear into particles and with a panicked scream I find myself at the foot of a mountain, and at the top I see what looks like a monastery.
"Where…where am I?"
I look around and realized something, Lulu wasn't with me! "Oh no! Lulu where are you?!" I shouted out as I frantically looked around me, but to no avail. And right when I was about to freak out I feel a firm hand on my shoulder and hear a masculine voice.
"Hey kid, did you get lost?"
I turn to see the person and the first thing I saw were three swords, tucked into the man's Obi, and then I look up and see moss green hair, and a scar on his left eye, but the final thing I noticed was his smell!
"Oh my god, you reek of alcohol!" I shouted before clutching my nose before looking at him again, "who are you?"
"Who me?" He says in a nonchalant manner before smirking at me, "im just a lost swordsman, but you can call me Roronoa Zoro." He tells me as I get a sense of familiarity with the man's name, where have I heard that name before?
'Wait…could he be?'
"Um…do you use a swordsoul deck by chance?" I cautiously ask him as he looks at me and laughs, "so you figured it out! Indeed I use a swordsoul deck." He responded as it all clicked!
"You're Roronoa Zoro! You were the very first world champion of the duel Grand Prix! The drunken duel master, the three turn duelist, the moss head executioner!" I yell, listing off all the titles most people know him by, not noticing the tick mark on his forehead.
"Don't call me moss head!! Ever since that shitty cook called me that in a duel people couldn't stop calling me that!" He shouts, irritation etching his face before he takes a deep breath and starts gulping down sake before burping.
"Hoo! Much better, now then…it seems you were chosen to take the trials." He tells me as I listen closely, "at the top of the monetary holds my deck, but to get it you must complete the trial of ten thousand steps." He begins to explain as he points up to the monastery, "don't let the trail name fool you, for every one hundred steps you will feel a pressure fall on top of you, the only way to overcome this trial, and reach the summit is to overpower the resolve of all the monsters that try to crush you with your own strength of will. Only then will they allow you to use them." He finishes before smiling, "simple, right?"
'That is in no way simple!!' I scream to myself as he gets up from the ground, "then I'll see you at the top." And in a flash he jumps…In the opposite direction…
(Just a thought, but if you pointed in the exact opposite direction of where Zoro needs to go, will he break the universe by going in the exact opposite direction you pointed at?)
"Wait you're going…and he's gone." I say to the now empty foot of the mountain, and after a few minutes of physching myself up, I take my first step towards the trial.
A few minutes pass as I took the first 50 steps, it wasn't hard at first, It honestly was a breeze for me, but as on foot touched the one hundredth step, I felt a bit heavier, physically my body was the same, but it felt like an unknown pressure was pressing down on me.
(A/N: Haki?)
But barely fazed I continue my ascent, and after every 100 steps the pressure doubled, and after the 2500th step, I was crawling, it felt like I was having a boulder strapped to my back, and I kept hearing voices telling me to give up, it would be easier.
But then I'd remember Ren and how he became a fugitive to help Lulu and I, becoming a fugitive in the process, yet even with all that he never gave up.
"No…I won't give up…I REFUSE TO BE A BURDEN!!!!" I screamed as I got up and started sprinting, not even noticing that I didn't feel the pressure.
3000th step…4000th step…7500th step!
I didn't stop, even with my body, screaming in protest wanting me to slow down, but I.didn't.stop! I hated the feeling of being useless, and I refuse to be useless, not now! NOT EVER!!
And as I sprint I see the final stretch and with a yell I make my way to the top!
"YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!" I screamed in pure victory as I slowly fall as my body tries forcing my body to shut down in order to save me, and before everything faded to black I see green hair.
"I refuse…to…be…useless…

(Zoro PoV)
"Well I'll be damned." I say to the now unconscious girl, her heaving breath slowly steadying as one of my cards manifest and an armored dragonoid carrying a gigantic sword looked at the girl.

"The girl is impressive, even with you using your full powered Haki, she just powered through it, I wonder…what drove her to this point?" The monster says as Zoro lifts the girl and takes her inside the monastery, the monster in tow.
"If I had to guess Chengying, she reminds me of myself when I felt like a burden with my duel captain." I remark as I remember my duel captain, with his smile and straw hat, as he took down another opponent with his toon deck.
"I'd say she refused to be a burden to whomever she looks up to, so she decided to fight my pressure with a pressure of her own." I tell Chengying before smiling, "that being said, she has proved herself worthy of carrying on my will."
"But Master!! If she carries on your will, you'll cease to exist! You can't leave us behind, not now!" Chengying protested, as he remembered the rules of the inheritance universe, if someone carries on the previous user's will, the predecessor disappears.
"No, I've lived in this plane long enough…let's let's the newer generation carry on the good fight, and maybe stick it to those top sider bastards while she's at it." I tell Chengying as my body starts to glow green, and slowly turns to dust as the remnants of my soul flows into the now unconscious Rin.
I turn to my duel spirits, crying at the sight of their beloved master disappearing, and with one final smile I look to the horizon, "don't worry everyone, I will never truly be gone, as long as this girl…no…as long as Rin carries my will."
And my body disappears, for good.
(Think of the inheritance universal rule being like the Avatar rules from avatar the past airbender, where when the predecessor passes their will onto another, their soul enters their Successors body, acting like a guide from beyond.)
———————————————————————————————————
Well folks I hope you enjoy this honestly very late chapter, I had a tough time figuring out the rules of how the inheritance universe works, until I remember the avatar system and decided to go that route.
And in doing so allowed me to make it work, and now Rin is the new user of the lost swordsoul deck, so how will she fare? Find out next time on dragon ball Z!!
Peace😁✌️
