"Don't worry, I've already prepared."

Seemingly seeing where Kurosaki Ichigo was worried, Shifouin Yoruichi said calmly.

Then, she turned towards the empty space aside: "Open!"

As Shifouin Yoruichi's words fell, the Soul King Palace space that was not supposed to be connected to anywhere was slowly torn apart. This kind of space was opened in a way that Kurosaki Ichigo was familiar with - it was Hollow's black accent.

I saw a cold-faced figure slowly appearing in the opened black cavity.

Kurosaki Ichigo was slightly shocked when he saw this man: "You... Grimmjow!? How could you..."

"Hey, long time no see, Kurosaki Ichigo."

Grimmjow heard the sound and came over, and after seeing Kurosaki Ichigo, a cruel smile appeared on his face.

He jumped out from the black cavity, stopped in front of Kurosaki Ichigo, and looked at Kurosaki Ichigo carefully.

"How many years have we not seen each other? It seems that the injury from the battle with me has healed?"

"Nonsense, you look energetic, right? You are defeated." Faced with Grimmjow's contemptuous gaze, Kurosaki Ichigo responded with a look on his face not to be outdone.

"Haha, I've become quite talkative after not seeing each other for a few years, huh? Do you think I'm dead? Bastard!"

As he spoke, Grimmjow suddenly pulled out the blade from his waist, tearing the air with the terrifying pressure of the sword, and immediately attacked Kurosaki Ichigo.

"!!"

Kurosaki Ichigo was slightly startled and raised his Zanpakutō to resist.

Feeling the power contained in the pressure of the sword, a trace of cold sweat broke out on his forehead.

This guy Grimmjow has become a lot stronger.

This is natural, after all, the person who can grow is never just himself.

"No rudeness, Grimmjow."

Just when the atmosphere between the two became tense, a cold voice came.

"Tsk."

Hearing this voice, Grimmjow curled his lips slightly, put away the blade and stepped aside.

"Who are you……"

Looking at the tall, hot figure walking out of the black cavity, Kurosaki Ichigo asked with some doubts.

"Speaking of it, it seems that I haven't shown up much."

The visitor calmly responded to Kurosaki Ichigo's doubts.

"Let me introduce myself, the first 'Ten Blades', the Oryx Knight, Nellie Du Odeshovank, just call me Nellie. We are here to protect Miss Inoue on the orders of our elder brother, and help you by the way.

You guys lend a helping hand.”

While explaining, Nilu looked at Inoue Orihime who was a little confused.

Here she appears with the will of the original Nellielle Du Odeshovank.

The main purpose is indeed to protect the safety of Inoue Orihime.

But there was one thing she didn't mention.

That is, there is another will in her body, and the reason why the other will came here is not that simple.

In fact, Xuanhao originally planned to let Inoue Orihime command the new world's "army" to come to the battlefield here to suppress everything, but Inoue's character is really not suitable for such a thing.

So Nilu had to come.

That's right, at this moment, the passage between the Spiritual Palace and the 'New World' has been connected. As long as she gives the order, there will be 'thousands of troops and horses' coming to destroy everything in the old world.

But before that, Yhwach still has value.

Yes, it is used as a test for the other will in Nilu's body, the soul of sister Xuanhao.

"Is that man... finally going to intervene?" Kurosaki Ichigo asked with a slight frown.

"You seem to have misunderstood something. He has been involved in it from the beginning~" Si Fengyuan Yeyi on the side pointed at himself and shrugged helplessly.

"Forehead……"

Only then did Kurosaki Ichigo react.

Since the Grimmjow and Nero in front of them were called by Mr. Yoruichi, it proves that Yoruichi was actually Xuanhao's person from the beginning... No, it's not just Yoruichi, Mr. Urahara seems to be too.

"Okay, let's go in first and then talk. If you stay here for a long time, you will be noticed." Sifengyuan Yoruichi suggested.

"Go in... where?" Kurosaki Ichigo was a little confused.

"We are here."

A voice came from the black cavity that had not yet been closed.

Kurosaki Ichigo followed the reputation and saw that there was still someone in the black chamber.

It turned out that opening the Black Chamber was not to let the people inside out, but to let them in. Grimmjow was just excited to see him, so he rushed out.

At this moment, there was a ladder leading directly to the top in the black cavity. On the ladder was a pitch black box that looked familiar to Kurosaki Ichigo.

After looking at the person who stuck his head out of the box to greet them, Kurosaki Ichigo understood what it was.

"Riruka! Yukio!?"

That's right, this box is a game space created by Yukio, a person with the ability to fully realize the art, that can shield perception.

"Anyway, let's come in first and talk about it later."

Soon, everyone entered the game space.

"So...what do you want me to explain? Ichigo." Shifouin Yoruichi asked teasingly.

"Of course all of them!"

Kurosaki Ichigo looked ashamed.

"Why do you look like you are only willing to tell part of it? I don't know anything!! Please explain everything clearly to me!"

"Huh? Don't you know that it's troublesome to explain everything?" Si Fengyuan Ye Yi picked his ears impatiently, "Can't you idiot use your brain to figure it out? In short, except for you, everyone here now They are people under that man’s command.”

"Ah this..."

The corner of Kurosaki Ichigo's mouth twitched when he heard this, and he looked at Orihime Inoue and Yasutora Sadatari on the side.

Both Sadatora Taitora and Inoue Orihime scratched their faces in embarrassment, smiled and nodded, seeming to acquiesce.

"So...we're surrounded?"

Kurosaki Ichigo asked weakly.

He really wanted to tell poor Youhabach - run! There are all Xuanhao’s people outside!!

"Okay, anyway, that's it. What we have to do now is to return to the Soul King, no... I should say the location of Yhwach."

Seeing Kurosaki Ichigo, Shifouin Yoruichi seemed to understand, and spoke calmly before moving on to the next topic.

"We stay here, how do we get up?"

Kurosaki Ichigo was puzzled for a while.

They currently have no numerical advantage at all.

Although I don’t know how strong the current Grimmjow and Nero, who has never taken action before, are, it should be difficult to face those powerful Star Cross Knights at the same time, right?

A head-on breakthrough is definitely not a wise move.

"Take the elevator~"

Yoruichi replied with a smile.

"ha?"

Kurosaki Ichigo looked confused.

"Anyway, the connection between Soul Society and the real world is the broken world, you know that, right?"

Sifengyuan explained the theory about the black cavity calmly, "There are large and small places called 'valleys' scattered around the boundary, which are the places where lost souls go, and the existence that fills the rest of the space is what we are now. The black cavity where it is located.”

"You have also traveled through the black cavity several times, so you should know that the spiritual pressure in this black cavity is unstable. You must release the spiritual pressure at any time to form a foothold under your feet in order to move forward. Otherwise, you will not even be able to gain a foothold. After all, this place is just nothingness.

space."

"Among them, why is it that only the 'Called Valley' mentioned just now can continue to exist in the form of the spirit subspace? Even Urahara didn't fully understand the specific reason, but he thought of using its characteristics, so he needed to

their help.”

As she said that, she looked at Yukio and Riruka.

“The ability to manipulate electricity to freely create a play space, and the ability to freely move in and out of favorite items.

Using Riruka's ability, the entire space of the Valley can be moved into the box created by Yukio, and then Yukio's ability can be used to transform it into rooms and tracks.

This creates an 'elevator' that can move freely up and down along the track in this void space."

"So...as long as we stay here, can we reach anywhere we want to go through this void space?" Kurosaki Ichigo asked doubtfully.
