With a calm and solemn appearance, a long silver-white beard hanging down on his chest, and draped in Kyoto's purple haori, Captain Yamamoto is sitting cross-legged in the middle with a sword Zen pose.
The decoration here is no different from the place where he taught Ji Xing Kendo a hundred years ago, but it is actually not the same place. The first team building has also been moved as a whole, otherwise it would be located close to the original team building of Zhenyang Underground Prison.
, Captain Yamamoto will definitely be able to feel Byakuya's spiritual pressure that disappeared together, and thus know where Ji Xing is.
The relocation was done for Yhwach.
43 years ago, the gods of death destroyed the shadow empire built by the Quincy using spirit seeds in the shadow of the Serenity Garden, and killed half of the members of the Star Cross Knights. However, they did not find Yhwach, who had sealed himself to regain his strength.
Determine the approximate location.
right here!
After receiving the news of the invasion, Captain Yamamoto instead entered the place to sit in meditation and left all other matters to the captains.
Suddenly, the sound of rapid footsteps broke the tranquility of the kendo quiet room. The deputy captain of the first team, Takuchojiro, wearing wooden clogs, hurriedly appeared at the door, half-kneeling on one knee to report.
"Captain, something happened! The superior nobles Moritoshi sent an emergency distress signal. It seems that they were hit by a travel disaster!"
The captain suddenly opened his eyes, and there seemed to be fire in his eyes: "The superior nobles were attacked?"
Chujiro knew that the captain was not asking himself, but was wondering and thinking. There was no reason to attack the nobles due to the travel disaster.
Want to muddy the waters? But how exactly did they attack a superior noble?
For them, who live for thousands of years, a hundred years is not that long ago. When they hear about someone attacking a noble, they will always think of it. After all, on that night a hundred years ago, Jiro Takucho reported exactly this to the captain.
of!
"I understand." After more than ten seconds of silence, the captain responded and closed his eyes again.
…
Superior nobles, Moritoshi family.
Half of the gorgeous houses collapsed, and the faint smell of blood spread from under the ruins, exuding an aura of decay under the setting sun in the evening. The corpses of more than a dozen guards were scattered around.
Two figures arrived in an instant. Kyōraku Shunsui, who was wearing a distinctive floral dress and feathery fabric, looked around with a steady gaze: "Please, Sister Lisa."
Lisa, who was beside her, had already drawn a special Zanpakutō, and with the liberation words "Destroy him, iron dragonfly", she liberated the Zanpakutō combination into a shape like a paddle, and inserted it into the collapsed building.
Pick, boom, lift it up!
The exposed scene made Kyōraku Shunsui's eyes shrink suddenly. He saw only two corpses under the collapsed building. They were dressed in servant clothes and looked horrified. They were both killed by a precise knife and their throats were cut!
But the building in front of them couldn't be a servant's room from the location to the decoration. The crushed and broken bowls of cakes, the blood stained next to the cakes, and the stained noble clothes also told them that there was something more in this room.
Many people!
But there was no trace, and no body was left behind!
The scene of leaving only clothes and no one left behind was very impressive to Kyōraku Shunsui. The only two things that could be achieved were Aizen's virtualization experiment and a Zanpakutō with extremely special effects!
"Is it really you who is back? Yono-san." He murmured softly and knelt down to check.
Lisa's sword returned to its original state, she looked around again, walked to a closed house in the distance, and pushed the door open.
"Ah——" As the screams echoed, she saw a young aristocratic boy holding his head in his hands, huddled in the corner. When he saw the death domineering uniform on her body, the frightened expression on her face calmed down slightly.
"Death, Death?"
"What happened here? Did you see the intruder?" Lisa asked.
Lisa patiently comforted the frightened young man, but Lisa did not get any useful information. The young man had hid in the cabinet since he heard the guard's screams and had just come out.
Turning around, he looked at Kyōraku Shunsui. Kyōraku Shunsui shook his head slightly and said that he had found nothing more. He said to the team members who had just arrived: "The attacker has left. Comfort those who were frightened and confirm whether the attacker has stayed."
Leave more traces!”
"Yes, Captain!"
After making arrangements, the two of them quickly walked to the high point of a nearby building and looked around carefully at the surrounding situation.
Two more figures came to their side in an instant, as did Toshiro Hitsugaya and Rangiku Matsumoto of the 10th Division who were closer to them.
"How's the situation? Have you caught the attacker? Captain Kyōband!"
"No." Jingraku Shunsui shook his head gently: "There is no trace of spiritual pressure captured at all."
"If it's really him, it's normal that he can't be caught." Lisa whispered.
Hitsugaya Toshiro was startled: "Who? That mysterious Perfection Technique master Hirakawa Kouki?"
Kyoraku Shunsui looked at him and said in a deep tone: "Captain Hitsugaya doesn't know something. After you brought back the information about the genjutsu master Hirakawa Kouki, Captain Urahara and Captain Yoruichi have not yet contacted Soul Society.
The connection reminded me of Captain Heiko’s name from a long time ago—Yono Mashi!”
Rangiku Matsumoto's body trembled: "He?! Didn't the leader of the Beijing Band mean...?!"
Hitsugaya Toshiro was also startled: "The number one genius of the millennium a hundred years ago? Invented the three-piece hang gliding suit, exposed Aizen Sosuke's conspiracy... and caused Aizen to defect to the three seats of the 12th Division?!"
"Ah." Kyōraku Shunsui thought: "Captain Hitsugaya entered the Seireitei relatively late and had not personally experienced that night a hundred years ago. The three sentences he left behind after his death were also misunderstood by the nobles and the old man.
Erased, the only one that is widely known now is 'Aizen is not a good person', but there are two other sentences."
Matsumoto Rangiku took a deep breath and said quickly: "One sentence is to point out the Quincy's hiding place, and the other sentence... is to threaten the nobles to be more honest, indicating that he will be reincarnated and come back!"
Hitsugaya Toushiro was shocked. The Quincy was discovered not only because of Captain Urahara? He threatened the nobles, reincarnated...reborn?!
He looked at the situation of the Mori family again: "You know this too, Rangiku? Did you experience it with your own eyes a hundred years ago?!"
If it were any other situation, Matsumoto Rangiku would have ridiculed the captain's age and qualifications, but he was not in the mood at this time. He just nodded lightly and said: "I was studying at the Mao Spiritual Arts Academy at that time, and the teachers at that time would always use him as an example.
Example.
If it hadn't been for that night's incident, he would now be the idol of the Gods of Death, and the one who could become the Captain of the Gods of Death the fastest would probably not be you, the leader."
And...silver.
She asked in a deep voice: "Captain of the Beijing Orchestra! Do you mean that the Hirakawa Kouki we saw in this world is the 'reincarnation' of that person?! And now..."
"No wonder just at that age, the power is mysterious and difficult to measure..." Hitsugaya Toshiro also felt ups and downs in shock, staring at Kyoraku.
However, Jingraku Shunshui shook his head slightly: "Yes, all the traces are pointing to him. Even the scene that can absorb the soul and make the spirit body of the deceased disappear leaving only the clothes is exactly the same, but this just makes me think... No
It will be him!
If he returns, there is no need to immediately recreate the bloody night of the nobles a hundred years ago, nor should he conflict with Soul Society. We have a common enemy - Aizen Sosuke.
This deliberateness makes me suspect that Aizen Sosuke is causing trouble. Taking a step back, if it is really Yono-san, he would have done more than just attack the Moritoshi family in front of him with his swift movements."
When they were shocked, they got the opposite answer. This ups and downs made Hitsugaya Toshiro and Matsumoto Rangiku stunned for a moment, and they were speechless for a moment. Is it Aizen?!
Just at this moment, a Shinigami member suddenly appeared and reported: "Captain Kyōband! Captain Hitsugaya! The superior noble Kurobe family sent a distress signal!"
"The mid-level noble Wakabayashi Yuan's family was attacked!"
"The mid-level nobles came to the Taira family to ask for help!"
Immediately afterwards, the continuous reports brought Kyoryu Shunshui back to the night a hundred years ago.
Facing the three looks around him, he pressed his bamboo hat silently and could only say in a deep voice: "Sister Lisa, send a reinforcement signal! Let's go!"
…
Mao Underground Prison.
Ji Xing successfully retrieved the Zanpakutō and was in a good mood after eavesdropping on the brother and sister's conversation for two minutes. He opened the door on the ground and walked out of the prison.
The light of dusk fell on him, making Ji Xing narrow his eyes slightly and look at the figure opposite.
Wearing a black suit that was almost like a domineering one, the young man half-hidden his face and took off his hijab, revealing a face that was slightly familiar, yet unfamiliar at the same time.
He had a Zanpakutō slung across his waist, but he was also holding a blood-stained black sword in his hand. The white scabbard and his hands were stained with blood that had not yet dried up. It looked like a massacre had just been carried out.
The most bizarre situation that Ji Xing expected was that as soon as he walked out of the Zhenyang underground prison, Mr. Yamamoto and all the captains had surrounded him. He never expected to encounter such a person.
His eyes lingered on the blood-stained black sword with a white handle, Ji Xing asked: "A member of the Tsunayashiro family?"
"Yes, Tsunayashiro Tomonobu, Tsunayashiro is the current clan leader, and the great-grandson of Tsunayashiro, the clan leader who was killed by you a hundred years ago." The young man opposite said in an indifferent tone with murderous intent: "It seems that there is no need to do more.
It has been confirmed that the heinous sinner who caused the Noble Blood Night is Yono Masashi!"
Ji Xing raised his head and asked, "It's me, did you copy my Zanpakutō?"
"Ah, thanks to Nirvana from the Technology Development Bureau, he helped us decipher your ability to absorb and devour souls, allowing me to pool the strength of the entire clan to make this disposable item."
"It's a one-time use. No wonder, let me tell you, how can a Zanpakutō be copied at will?" Ji Xing nodded slightly and said, "Who did you just kill and suck the soul of?"
Tsunayashiro Chishin sneered: "You did the same thing, killing all those nobles who had been trying to shake the Tsunayashiro family's position for hundreds of years!"
Ji Xing shook his head and said: "How can it be the same? What I call it is eliminating harm for the people, and what you call it is eliminating dissidents."
"Is that so? Do you really think of yourself as the judge of the nobles?" Tsunayayotomo stretched out his backhand and inserted the white blade into his body.
With a clang, the blade shattered!
A huge amount of spiritual pressure rose up!
…
"Is it originally a dispute between nobles?"
On the other side, there were more than two groups of captains and vice-captains in the queue. Kyoryu Shunsui seemed to be relieved and sighed helplessly.
After chasing more than a dozen nobles who were attacked and blocking them in various ways, they finally caught the attacker's tail, leaving the attackers with no time to clean up the traces. The final result pointed to a high-ranking noble, Tsunayashiro, the head of the Tsunayashiro family.
Chishin!
The captains all know this man. When the Tsunayashiro family declined a lot after the incident a hundred years ago, he stabilized the situation of the Tsunayashiro family with great decisiveness. His own strength is also extremely good, and he seems to have mastered the swastika.
Understand that he can serve as the captain of the Gotei 13.
This is the heritage of the four nobles, and Tsunayashiro Chinobu has the ability to do this kind of thing.
"Tch—it's really adding to the chaos." Mako Hirako muttered in displeasure, "I thought Yono Masashi was really back, but it turned out that the Tsunayashiro family was taking advantage of the chaos to eliminate dissidents, idiots."
"Ahem..." Jushiro Ukitake coughed twice and thought: "I didn't know that you actually suspected that the perfect master of the art, Hirakawa Kouki, was Yono-kun. Maybe the reason for Tsunayashiro's actions was also the reason.
Similar? I specially created a scene that is similar to Yono-kun's Zanpakutō, and wanted to put the blame on Hirakawa Kouki, but I didn't expect that we would chase him so fast, and now we..."
Jingraku Shunshui spread his hands: "When it comes to the four nobles, let's let Captain Kuchiki and Old Man Shan embarrass them. We can just report it truthfully. In short...it's not returning with Ye Sang, which makes people feel happy and disappointed at the same time."
"Yes." Hirako Mako shook his head.
The young Toshiro Hitsugaya listened to the conversation between several veterans and deeply understood how heavy and complicated the name 'Yono Masashi' was for the century-old captain. However... this attack was a dispute between nobles, and Hirakawa Kouki was not
Yono Masashi, then...where is Hirakawa Kouki?
Buzz——
At this moment, a terrifying spiritual pressure that could not be described in words suddenly came, which even made Hitsugaya Toshiro stagger while walking and looked up into the distance in disbelief!
"That's...what?! Who?!"
I saw dozens of miles away, a dark pillar of spiritual pressure rising into the sky, straight into the sky! The chaotic and violent spiritual pressure in it, and the terrifying intensity of it, far exceeded what Hitsugaya Toshiro had seen, and it was almost close to him.
Ten times!
How could anyone have that level of spiritual pressure?! He looked up at the three centenary captains and found that they, Misakimaru Lisa, and Matsumoto Rangiku all had dazed expressions!
"I'm really back." Hirako Mako murmured: "But what does that idiot mean..."
Come back? Yono Masashi? Does this spiritual pressure represent Yono Masashi?!
Different from the young captain, Captain Yamamoto, who was sitting cross-legged in the First Division team building, opened his eyes again. Unohana Retsu of the Fourth Division came to the window to visit. The black cat following Ichigo turned his head in surprise, confused.
Kenpachi ran away, stunned with excitement and ecstasy!
Gazes gathered together, and at this moment, all the shinigami in the Jingling Court looked at the terrifying black spiritual pressure beam in shock or surprise!
Any Shinigami above the rank who have experienced the incident a hundred years ago will never forget that they felt such three terrifying spiritual pressures that night!
Red comes from Captain Yamamoto.
Blue comes from Aizen Sosuke.
Black belongs to Yono Mashi!
…
Looking at the dark spiritual pressure beam in front of him, Ji Xing seemed to be facing himself a hundred years ago.
The disposable Zanpakutō has been completely shattered and completed its mission. The souls of the previous massacres were injected into Tsunayashiro Chinobu's body and turned into his spiritual pressure and strength!
His soul was on fire, and there was pain, ferocity, and determination in his expression.
"First, kill the dissidents and kill all the nobles who are shaking Tsunayashiro's position, and then use this move to drag me to death together. I will resist the blame and help the nobles eliminate their enemies, and then resurrect Tsunayashiro?"
Ji Xing sighed with emotion: "You are more decisive than I was a hundred years ago. After all... you can't possibly be reincarnated with one move, right? If you die, you are really dead. If you burn your soul like this, you won't even have to go to hell."
"Everything is for the Tsunayashiro family!" Tsunayashiro Tomo stretched out the Zanpakutō from his waist: "And this is the best opportunity. In this world, you must have absorbed the abilities of all the Perfectionists, and you must know that it is
Parts of the Soul King’s internal organs, right?!
Now you haven't digested it completely, and the Zanpakuto has just retrieved the broken broken sword. The longer it takes, the stronger the genius you are will probably become, and the more powerless you will be to us!
I can't expect the Gotei 13, who have an old relationship with you, to capture you, and I can't even expect Aizen Sosuke to kill you and put Tsunayashiro's future on the line.
I don’t need to kill you here, I just need to inflict enough trauma on you, and use my death to make the Gotei Thirteen dare not protect you anymore, and what awaits you will be an endless sentence of hell!”
He raised the knife in front of him, and his spiritual pressure rose again!
"Swastika! Drinking from the four seas, occupying the ends of the world, all things are covered, overwriting and cutting, the beautiful mirror canon!"
In an instant, arc light flashed, and a blazing sea of fire engulfed Ji Xing's body and gnawed at the surrounding area. Tsunayashiro Chinobu shouted softly: "The blade flows like fire!"
"Is the Zanpakutō a copying ability? This seems to be Tsunayashiro Tokinada's sword. Is it also responsible for creating a replica of my Zanpakutō?"
The temperature of the flames around his body was almost higher than that of Commander Yamamoto Hajime when Tsunayashiro Chinobu's soul was burning, devouring and burning Ji Xing!
The one-third incomplete Zanpakutō that had just been retrieved from Ji Xing's sleeve slipped out and was held in his hand!
There is nothing wrong with my decisiveness and my judgment. If I don’t take action now, I will indeed become stronger and stronger, and it may indeed bring about a change that will sweep through Soul Society. A family like Tsunayashiro will inevitably go
Decline!
He is a talented person, and he is also a ruthless person.
Shiba Haiyan's death does not need to be investigated.
Unfortunately...it is not the reincarnated Yono Masashi who returns, but a brand new version of Hirakawa Kouki.
A hundred years ago, my strength was not only my spiritual pressure that surpassed Deputy Captain Aizen after burning my soul, but also my outstanding control and self-control that could suppress the pain of this soul collision!
Katcha——!
Suddenly, purple thunder rolled down in the sky, and the sky in Jingling Court was covered by dark clouds. A feeling of terror eroded the hearts of all the Shinigami!
In the sea of flaming flames of the 'Flowing Blade Wakahara', a purple electric light broke through the flames, instantly tearing apart the black spiritual pressure pillar protecting Tsunayayo Chinobu's body, and refracted dozens of degrees around him!
Tsunayoshiro Chishin froze, his eyes widened in disbelief, as if he had doubts, but his body exploded into pieces in the next moment!
The dark spiritual pressure beam disappeared.
In the substantial sea of flames, Tsunayayo Chinobu's head flew across and fell in front of Ji Xing.
Those eyes were wide open, staring at the white handle in Ji Xing's hand... and the purple broken blade!
Then burn it out and eliminate it!
In the sea of fire, Ji Xing raised his head again and looked into the distance. Jingraku Shunshui and others came one after another in search of spiritual pressure, and they also looked at the situation here absentmindedly.
"What on earth is going on?" Hitsugaya Toushiro murmured: "That spiritual pressure actually belongs to the head of the Tsunayashiro family? He was just killed by Kouki Hirakawa? Who is Kouki Hirakawa..."
After twists and turns, doubts were dispelled time and time again, Kyōraku Shunsui was also confused. Mako Hirako stared closely at the broken sword: "It's Yono's Zanpakutō, but...purple?! Thunderbolt?!"
Under their gaze, the purple color on the knife suddenly faded a bit and became as blue as the sky. The person holding it rotated and swept away, and a wave of water hit, extinguishing the surrounding sea of fire!
A large amount of water vapor quickly rose into the sky and turned into raindrops falling down.
Ji Xing sheathed his sword and waved to the opposite side: "Captain Kyoko, Captain Ukitake, we haven't seen each other for a hundred years. I'm sorry, Captain Hirako, it was inconvenient to say hello last time.
My soul is colorful and is no longer just black and white. It’s me, I’m back!”
