Todo's figure returned from the Technology Development Bureau and landed smoothly on the ground.
"You're so slow, Todo." Tōsen Kaname, who was keeping vigil at night, complained.
"Stop complaining, I have to take over your squad as soon as I come back." Todo said with a bit of helplessness in his tone, "Substitute, you go inside to rest, and by the way, help me tell the captain that I have asked Captain Urahara for support.
Someone should be here soon."
"No, the current situation does not allow us to be so leisurely. After all, ten team members have been missing, so we must be vigilant at all times. You are back, and now the three of us are guarding together, and one of us will take a rest every quarter of an hour.
Kasagi and the captain are resting inside now. You can go in and report the situation yourself, and then come out and watch the night together." Wei Dao explained on the side.
"Understood, then I... will go in and report the situation first." Todo nodded slightly and walked towards the direction of the 'canopy' tent.
"Ha~huh...ha~huh...huh..."
There was a sound of snoring coming from inside the tent.
"..."
Liuche Quanxi, who had just changed people and came down to rest, was speechless for a while when he looked at Jiunabai, who was lying on the ground and sleeping with a majestic posture.
"How could this guy sleep so heartlessly in the face of this situation?"
While complaining, he stretched out his hand and pulled the other party's clothes. The action seemed very natural, without any extra thoughts, "Hey... your clothes are open."
"Hehehehe... Quanxi hates it~~~~~~~" Jiunabai said dreamily.
"It's true...talking in sleep is so disgusting, I'll beat you up with the truth."
Liuche Quanxi curled his lips angrily.
"ah!
!”
Screams suddenly came from outside the tent.
"!
"
"It's Weijima's voice!"
Liuche Quanxi's eyes narrowed, and he and Kasagi beside him stood up and rushed outside without hesitation.
"what happens!?"
They were answered by dead silence.
The only person standing outside at this moment was Todo who was facing them.
Todo seemed to be walking towards the tent, but his body froze halfway.
puff--
Pillars of blood spurted out from his neck. He was already dead, but because the attacker's knife was too fast, the wound didn't open until now.
"Fudo!"
"hateful!"
The expressions on the faces of the two people who rushed out became extremely angry and nervous.
"Quickly draw your sword! Kasagi! The enemy should still be nearby!"
Rukuchukenxi drew out the Zanpakutō from his waist, turned around and roared in the direction of the tent, "Shiro! Get up quickly! Hurry!"
puff--
There was another sound of flesh being torn apart.
"!"
Rokuche Kensai turned around in surprise and saw Kasagi slowly falling down before he could draw his sword.
"Kasagi! Damn it! What on earth is going on!?"
puff--
There was a pain in his chest, and a long sharp knife penetrated from his back.
"!?"
Liuche Quanxi turned around stiffly and finally saw the face of the assailant.
"It's you?"
············
"Emergency gathering! Emergency gathering!"
"Please captain each team to gather at the first team building immediately!"
The voice of the order resounded throughout the Jingling Court.
"There is an emergency in the Ninth Division! The captain of the Ninth Division, Rokusha Kensai, and the deputy captain, Kubu Nanbai, have lost their spiritual pressure! Please gather the captains of each team at the First Division building immediately!"
"!
"
Reiatsu disappeared?
It was an encounter with the enemy and defeat... But if it was a defeat, even the captain would be killed by the enemy, and there would be no chance of any information being passed back! Could it be that... the souls 'evaporated' like the souls in this incident?
For a moment, Urahara Kisuke could not judge the specific situation.
He immediately put down the things in his hands, ran towards the preparation room quickly, and opened the door violently.
"Where's Hiyori!?"
But unfortunately, he is no longer around at this moment.
"She...has already taken action." The people inside responded in a panic.
"Damn..."
Urahara Kisuke cursed secretly and turned around immediately.
"Repeat, all captains must assemble urgently!" The voice of the order still echoed throughout the Jingling Court.
Kisuke Urahara quickly ran towards the first team's dormitory.
He underestimated the seriousness of the situation. He had known that he should have gone to support him from the beginning. At this moment, he just hoped to get permission to attack and be able to stop Hiyori Sarugaki from getting there in time. After all, even captain-level figures were
Disappearing is no longer a simple incident.
············
First team team building.
"Emergency situations."
'boom--'
As Yamamoto Genryu Sai Shigekuni spoke, he punched the cane in his hand on the ground. The clear sound made everyone present quiet down.
"According to the report sent back from the standby camp of the ninth division ahead, the spirit pressure of the team captain Rokusha Kensai and the deputy team member Nagana Haku disappeared in the camp. The reason is still unknown. This is the most serious situation that can be foreseen.
One! Until yesterday, it was just a simple incident in Rukongai, but now it has evolved into an incident that must be resolved related to the honor of the Gotei 13.
Therefore...I will select five captains and go to the camp immediately to investigate the situation."
tread--
Heavy footsteps stopped at the door, and the door to the team building was pushed open.
"Huh...huh..."
Urahara Kisuke stopped in front of the door panting, his eyes meeting the old man's eyes facing the door.
"You are too slow, Urahara Kisuke." Yamamoto Genryu Sai Shigekuni looked serious.
"I'm sorry...but...please...let me go..." Urahara Kisuke seemed to have heard Captain Yamamoto's decision outside and volunteered.
"no."
Faced with Urahara Kisuke's offer, Yamamoto Genryu Sai Shigekuni expressionlessly refused.
"But my adjutant has already gone there! I should..." Urahara Kisuke's tone became a little excited.
"Kisuke!"
A roar of filial piety stopped him, it was Ye Yi from Sifengyuan.
"It's so embarrassing. This is a meeting of all the captains!" Ye Yi scolded, "Calm down, she was selected and sent out by you personally. You should trust her ability. How can she look like this in a panic now?
Modesty? Are you insulting her?"
"..."
Urahara Kisuke fell silent upon hearing this.
"Okay... let's continue."
Soon, Yamamoto Genryanagi Sai Shigekuni continued, "Third Division Captain Hobashiro Juro, Fifth Division Captain Hirako Mako, Seventh Division Captain Aikawa Ratake, the above three will rush to the Ninth Division camp immediately.
support.
Before other orders are issued, the captain of the second division, Yoruichi Shihoin, is at your disposal.
Captain Kuchiki Ginrei of the 6th Division, Shunsui Kyōraku, the captain of the 8th Division, and Jushiro Ukitake, the captain of the 13th Division, you are responsible for continuing to guard the safety of Seireitei.
In addition...the captain of the Fourth Squadron, Unohana Retsu, is waiting for the wounded to be sent back, and goes to the comprehensive first aid room to make preparations to rescue the wounded..."
"Please wait, Captain." Uozuka Retsu heard this and said, "Considering the treatment of the wounded, shouldn't it be more efficient for me to go directly to the camp?"
"The situation is still unclear now. The defense of Jing Ling Ting is still the top priority. We must ensure that we are not attacked here by chance, so it is necessary for you to stay." Yamamoto Genryu Sai Shigekuni calmly explained, "
Don’t worry, I’ll send others over there. Come in!”
As he spoke, he looked in the direction of the door.
Bang——
There was a crisp metallic collision sound.
A figure like a monk holding a scepter in his hand and an unusually tall figure walked in slowly.
"It's... Niryo Tessai... He hasn't been seen for a long time, right?" Looking at the appearance of the person, Ukitake Jushiro asked with some surprise.
"It seems like things are really serious now?" Kyoryu Shunsui's eyes became serious.
Because the two people who came here were the commander of the Oni Taoists, the Great Oni Taoist Priest, and the Deputy Oni Taoist Priests, Niryo Tessai and Arisakida Hakigen.
Although the two of them are not affiliated with the Gotei Thirteenth Team, their strength and status are no less than the captain level. They can reach the captain level just by relying on the 'Kido' alone. If the Seireitei was a royal palace
, then they are equivalent to the chief and second chief mages of the palace.
"Do you all understand the situation?" Yamamoto Genryu Sai Shigekuni asked, "I ask you two to go to the site of the incident to reinforce the ninth division."
"clear."
"I obey my orders."
Tieshai and Boxuan took the orders.
“Hello—Old Man Shan.”
Just as the two were about to set off, a voice warned them.
Everyone looked at the speaker, Kyoraku Shunsui.
Being stared at by so many people, Jingraku Shunsui seemed to realize that his title was too casual, and lowered the brim of his hat in embarrassment, "Ah... I'm sorry, actually I just wanted to make a comment..."
"What?" Yamamoto Genryu Sai Shigekuni asked indifferently.
"As your old man said, the situation on the front line is a mystery at the moment. We should first ensure the combat effectiveness within Jinglingting, lest this is to divert the tiger away from the mountain, so you send the big ghost Taoist priest and the deputy ghost Taoist priest together... Not too bad
All right?"
"..." Yamamoto Genryu Sai Shigekuni was silent for a while, then nodded slightly, "Then... do you have any other ideas?"
"Hey, why don't you let my vice-captain go?" Kyoraku Shunsui smiled and shouted towards the window, "Hey - Lisa!"
"What's up!?"
A head popped out of the window.
"..."
The other captains were speechless when they saw this.
"You are indeed here." Jingraku Shunsui smiled helplessly, "I told you not to peek at the captains' meeting."
"Then how can you blame me?" Lisa said confidently, "The more you hide it, the more people want to see it. This is human nature!"
As she said that, she pulled her collar calmly: "It's like this, do you want to see it?"
"Pfft--" Jingraku Shunsui spat out in embarrassment, "Ahem... um... now that you've heard it, you should understand the situation, right?"
"Yeah." Lisa, Shikimaru, responded dully.
"Can I trouble you?"
"certainly."
Misaki Maru Lisa said and gave a thumbs up, and the next moment, she disappeared in a flash.
"..."
Watching this scene, Yamamoto Genryu Sai Shigekuni seemed a little helpless in taking Kyoraku Shunsui, "He actually decided on his own..."
"Because it's rare to encounter such a serious situation~" Kyoryaku Shunsui looked like he was just watching the excitement and didn't mind the matter. "I hope to take this opportunity to let my subordinates accumulate experience. Please forgive me. Don't worry, although my family's
Lisa looks weak, but she is actually quite strong..."
With that said, he turned his head and looked at Tetshai who had not yet had time to leave: "So... can you please give me some face? Taoist Master Dagui."
"It doesn't matter... I'd rather obey your orders out of respect and stay for now. Xiaobo, go ahead."
Tieshai replied indifferently, but he was speechless for a while. You've already killed me first and then played the show later. What else can I do?
"OK."
Behind him, Zhaotian Boxuan nodded slightly when he heard the words.
"Well!"
Seeing that everyone had reached an agreement, Yamamoto Genryanagi Sai Shigekuni knocked on the floor with his cane again, "Hongqiaolou Juro, Hirako Mako, Aikawa Luowu, Arikada Hakigen, Shikinamaru Lisa, the above five, will
Form a temporary special force to deal with the disappearance of souls. If there are no problems... let's go."
"yes!"
Soon, the meeting was dissolved.
Urahara Kisuke stood silently.
As a captain, you are not allowed to leave the Serenity Court without an order in this situation.
"Don't worry, Hiyori is still very strong."
Jingraku Shunsui smiled and passed by, patting his shoulder to comfort him.
"Of course it's not as powerful as my Lisa, but even so, you don't need to worry too much. It's the captain's job to trust your subordinates and wait for them to come back."
"Is that so..."
Urahara Kisuke looked at Kyoraku Shunsui's leaving figure and murmured to himself.
He is indeed more junior than all the captains here and is not as good as them in many things.
But... is the issue now a matter of qualifications?
He only knows one thing - there will be no chance of regret in life. If something happens, it will be too late to say anything!
Thinking of this, his eyes became firm and he turned and walked towards the door.
············
Tap tap tap——
"Whirring whirring……"
Rapid breathing and footsteps sounded.
A petite figure was running in panic in the woods.
It was Hiyori Sarugaki who was sent by Urahara Kisuke to support the 9th Division.
"What's going on! What on earth is going on!?"
She was running around, looking puzzled.
boom--
Accompanied by a violent roar, a monster-like figure landed very close to her back. The impact caused her to roll awkwardly several times before she stabilized her body.
"hateful……"
Wiping the blood on the corner of his mouth, Hiyori Sarugaki looked at the approaching shadow with fierce eyes.
"What on earth...is this going on?"
call--
A strong wind roared in, and Hiyori Sarugaki dodged again in embarrassment, with some new scars on his body.
What's puzzling is that she is clearly wearing a Zanpakutō, but until now she has no intention of drawing it out to fight back.
"!
"
"Oops, it's too late to hide!"
The huge fist struck again, and Hiyori Sarugaki shrank back.
"clang--"
At this critical moment, someone stood in front of her.
"Are you crazy? Hiyori, why don't you draw your sword?"
