The former site of the Sukari Building is an abandoned building located in the southern industrial zone of Guimao District. Because it is a dangerous building, the abandoned building is surrounded by horizontal stripes to prevent pedestrians from entering the area.
Coupled with the relocation of the industrial area, this place can be described as "rarely visited", and sometimes no one may even pass by it for several days.
But today it's a little uneasy here.
Boom~~
A violent explosion was heard, and the walls of the building exploded, sending dust and smoke into the sky.
"This is……"
In the abandoned building, a young man with a strong build and brown skin stood in front of the gap, his eyes full of confusion and shock.
After a while, he slowly turned his gaze to his right arm.
I saw that his right arm actually showed red lines on a black background and a bulging shoulder. It didn't look like a human arm at all.
"This is the power that belongs to you deep in your soul, Mr. Sadatari."
Urahara Kisuke glanced at the arms of the brown-skinned young man, then turned to look aside. In the direction he was looking... there was standing a plump girl with long orange hair:
"Miss Inoue, you also have this ability, which is why I called you two here. If you two want to help Kurosaki Ichigo, then in the next time, you must master
With your abilities, only in this way can you be able to help Kurosaki Ichigo."
"However, I am only responsible for helping you tap into your own potential abilities. There are others who will teach you how to practice."
After Urahara Kisuke finished speaking, he looked at the time and said to himself: "At this time, she should be back soon, right?"
"I'm already here."
Before he finished speaking, a slightly hoarse male voice suddenly came over.
Inoue Orihime and Chadatari Yasutora were startled by the sudden sound. They looked towards the place where the sound came from. When they saw the person who made the sound... they both froze in the same place.
land.
Because that voice actually came from the mouth of a black cat.
"What? Have you never seen a cat talk?"
"..."
Sadatora Taitora and Inoue Orihime blinked, then shook their heads at the same time.
…
The internal prison of Lingting Division 6.
"Captain Abarai."
"Um."
Nodding to the team members who greeted him, Abarai Renji unlocked the cell door with the key and stepped into the inner prison.
This is the place where the Sixth Division is used to punish erring members, but it is rarely used. In the more than a month since Renji became the deputy captain of the Sixth Division, this is the first time that he knows that there is a prison here.
.
and……
Among the prisoners, he was escorted in by himself.
"What? Hunger strike?"
Looking at Rukia Kuchiki sitting behind the fence with her back to him, Renji chuckled: "I heard Rikichi Yuki say that you have never eaten anything, and your body will collapse if you don't eat."
"I'm not protesting, and I don't have the right to protest anything."
Lucia turned her head and said, "I'm just not hungry. Thank you for your concern, Vice Captain Abarai."
"Tsk tsk tsk, what Boss Duan Mu said is absolutely right."
Renji grinned: "Guys who like to use honorifics are very good at yin and yang."
"Boss Duan Mu..."
Lucia frowned upon hearing this and asked with some hesitation: "Mr. Duan Mu, did you really attack Room 46?"
"If you have time to worry about him, you should worry about yourself."
Even so, looking at the worry on Lucia's face, Renji paused and said:
"Although Boss Duan Mu raided Room 46, no casualties were caused from the beginning to the end, and the charge of forcibly breaking into the forbidden area was also taken down by... well, I heard that a big shot who seemed to be the sage's daughter... Tsk,
His circle of friends is really wide..."
"Ahem, you don't have to worry too much about him anyway... Boss Duan Mu can be considered an attempted criminal at best.
But you have truly committed an unforgivable sin; you must know that the rule of 'prohibiting the private transmission of the power of the God of Death to humans' has existed since the birth of the God of Death, and was personally formulated by the legendary royal family."
"No one can save you this time."
"Yeah?"
Kuchiki Rukia turned to look at the ventilated window in the prison, with a bitter smile on her face: "That's right."
Seeing this, Renji, who had a mocking look on his face just a second ago, suddenly changed his expression:
"Idiot, of course I lied to you."
After that, he said in an exaggerated tone: "When Captain Kuchiki reports to the headquarters, he will definitely ask for a commutation of your sentence. Besides, the human kid has been killed by the captain, which can make up for some of your mistakes."
"After all, he is also your eldest brother and will not just watch you being executed."
"No, he will kill me."
Lucia shook her head: "I know exactly what kind of person he is. I have been adopted by the Kuchiki family for so many years, and that person has never looked at me properly."
"..."
Renji was silent for a while after hearing this, and then shook his head: "Don't worry, even if Captain Kuchiki doesn't care about you, as long as there is news from Boss Duanmu... well, you will definitely not die anyway."
"Um?"
Rukia was startled when she heard this and didn't understand why Renji suddenly mentioned Duanmu's name.
"In short, you can live here with good food and drink, and wait for the good news to come."
Renji shook his head and did not elaborate. Although Duan Mu told them and others that the Forty-Six Chambers might have been destroyed, he did not mention in the letter who destroyed all the Forty-Six Chambers.
Captain Unohana seemed to have noticed something.
But for some reason, like Boss Duan Mu, she looked at her in confusion when asked, as if she didn't know anything...
wrong!
Rather than saying that you don't know, it feels more like you are always on guard against something, and you don't believe anyone except yourself!
"That's really a pity."
As soon as he finished speaking, a cold voice suddenly came into the ears of the two of them: "What I brought is not good news. Room 46 has made a ruling and sentenced Rukia Kuchiki to the first-degree serious crime.
He will be executed twice at the Zhenyang execution ground in 25 days!"
Along with the words, a tall figure slowly walked out of the corridor and stopped in the prison.
This figure is none other than Byakuya Kuchiki, the captain of the Sixth Division.
"Kuchi...Captain Kuchiki...what did you say?" Renji's expression changed.
"I don't want to do it a second time."
When Renji heard this, his face looked a little ugly, but he did not feel desperate because of it.
Indeed, the judgment made by Zhenyang Room 46 cannot be changed, and it absolutely cannot be changed!
but……
If what Boss Duan Mu said is true, it would be completely different.
Byakuya Kuchiki glanced at Renji's face, then turned around and walked out. He didn't even look at Rukia in the prison from the beginning to the end, as if he was just here to report the verdict on a routine basis.
Is that really the case?
Rukia looked at Kuchiki Byakuya's disappearing back, sadness flashed in her eyes.
She was not surprised by Brother Byakuya's reaction, because he had always treated her with this attitude.
"Hey, hey, hey, Lucia, you don't have to be so pessimistic. You said that even without Captain Kuchiki, we will definitely..."
…
Intensive care unit of comprehensive first aid center.
In the dim room, Duan Mu slowly opened his eyes, and his pupils flashed with a blue light.
This light only appeared for a moment and then disappeared from his eyes.
"The bright moon is as far as the eye can see, but I have no intention of coming or going..."
Duan Mu frowned, his face full of contemplation.
What is still missing?
It was obvious that he had mastered all the elements, but no matter how hard Duan Mu tried, it seemed as if something was missing.
After pondering for a while, Duan Mu was about to sink his mind into his body again and continue his research, but a look of surprise suddenly flashed in his eyes the next second.
Why is he here?
Almost at the same time, the door to the intensive care unit was opened, and a tall figure walked straight in.
Ever since Duan Mu woke up, the intensive care unit has been heavily surrounded, and all departments have jointly blocked everyone who wanted to visit Duan Mu from outside.
In the past few days, the people Duan Mu came into contact with were basically the soldiers of the Fourth Division who changed his dressing. The only person who was not a member of the Fourth Division was still injured because of "being frightened and feeling unwell".
Zhihua Lie arranged for Nayura to be closely inspected next door.
But the person entering the intensive care unit now is neither a member of the Fourth Division nor Nayura.
But...
A person whom Duan Mu has only met once and has never even spoken to.
Byakuya Kuchiki, captain of the 6th Division!
Kuchiki Byakuya stopped beside the hospital bed and looked at Duanmu with his cold and majestic eyes.
1 second...10 seconds...1 minute...2 minutes...
"..."
Duan Muxu opened his eyes and broke the silence first:
"Captain Kuchiki, when you come here, you don't just come here to play a game of staring at me, right? Or... given your status, do you think a Rukongai pariah like me, after seeing you, will
You should stand up to see me with your seriously injured body, then you can tell me..."
"No, what is the purpose of telling you to come here?"
Silence... lasted for nearly half a minute.
immediately……
Turn around and take steps!
Byakuya Kuchiki, who had stared at Duanmu for two and a half minutes, turned around and walked out of the ward without saying a word.
"..."
Duan Mu looked at Kuchiki Byakuya's leaving figure, and the corner of his mouth twitched slightly.
What on earth is this thing for?
Da~
At this moment, Kuchiki Byakuya suddenly stopped.
"How much."
A cold voice sounded in the ward.
"???" Duan Mu
"How much does it cost to tell me the reason why you forced your way into Mao's 46th room?" Byakuya Kuchiki turned around slowly, still wearing the indifferent look that seemed to have no emotion at all, but his eyes were staring closely.
He looked at Duan Mu and waited for Duan Mu's answer.
Duan Mu was stunned when he heard this, and then a flash of surprise flashed in his eyes.
"As I lie here, has the verdict against Rukia been finalized?"
In response to Duanmu's inquiry, Kuchiki Byakuya did not answer, but frowned slightly, as if he was hesitating whether to leave altogether.
"For money, for status."
Duan Mu smiled slightly when he saw this: "My sworn sister gave me an extremely generous amount of money, gave me a noble status, and promised to save my life. With these three points, why do I need other reasons?"
"Ah, yes, it's my fault."
"Captain Kuchiki, you were born with everything. Naturally, you don't know how attractive these things are to the untouchables of Rukongai. It's normal that you don't understand what I do."
Hearing this, Kuchiki Byakuya took a deep look at Duan Mu, and then walked out.
Looking at Kuchiki Byakuya's leaving figure, Duan Mu frowned and calmed down the spiritual pressure that was about to explode in his body.
Unable to determine.
I have almost no contact with Byakuya Kuchiki, and relying solely on my understanding in memory, I cannot be familiar with all the behaviors and habits of a person, and use this to identify problems from the details.
Even my own memory cannot be completely trusted.
What he encountered outside the Forty-sixth Floor of Mao’s ‘Tōsen Fortress’ was a profound lesson!
Under uncertain circumstances, be on guard against everyone you come into contact with.
Duan Mu shook his head slightly, putting this episode behind him, and turned his attention to the system panel.
…
Name: Duan Mu
Race: human
Level: Stage 2
Physical fitness: Top
Reiatsu: top level
Free fight: Advanced
Shunpo: Top
Cutting Technique: Advanced
Zanpakutō: Advanced
…
After the fierce battle in the past few days, Duan Mu's spiritual pressure has grown again, and Duan Mu is not surprised by this.
Because in Duan Mu’s memory, Urahara Kisuke once said something when he was coaching the king, and that was:
Spiritual power is most easily enhanced when the soul is facing the threat of disappearing!
The battles Duan Mu has experienced over the years have also confirmed this. In almost every life and death fight, his strength will grow somewhat.
To put it more bluntly...
Almost all Shinigami who have not reached the limit of their spiritual body basically have a physique similar to that of a Saiyan. Every time they are cured of near-death, their spiritual pressure will be improved to some extent... Of course, the degree of improvement is far from that of a Saiyan.
kind of situation.
This is why Duan Muhui initially believed that those captains whose strength had not changed for a long time would advance by leaps and bounds in the near future!
Back to business.
Duan Mu did not look at the detailed panels, but focused on the levels.uuReading
The second stage.
After his spiritual pressure exceeded 500,000, Duanmu reached the second stage from the original third stage. If he were replaced by the Gotei 13th Division's spiritual power, he would now be a spiritual body with second-level spiritual power.
However……
This is far from enough.
But there is nothing we can do no matter how anxious we are.
Looking at the big 0 behind the current experience value, Duan Mu couldn't help but sigh.
If he had enough experience points, he would have repaired his knot long ago, although...
Even if the knot is repaired, Duan Mu will still lie here, but at least when someone attacks him, he can exert his strongest strength.
As for Duan Mu, who invested experience points in his body and felt the benefits of it, he no longer feels any distress at all.
Unknowingly, Duan Mu's physique, which was originally looked down upon in every possible way, has risen to the same status as spiritual pressure in his mind!
The most important thing is...
The exchange of soul combinations, also known as the 'dimensional breakthrough' of spiritual pressure, has basically been compressed to the extreme with the current strength of spiritual pressure.
Even if you continue, the improvement will be extremely limited.
Duan Mu is preparing to raise his body to a level equal to or exceeding the spiritual pressure, thereby breaking through the existing limit barrier.
and……
As his strength became stronger, Duan Mu's understanding of the limits of Death gradually became clearer.
In his opinion, the body needs to be improved sooner or later.
Because in the long years of Soul Society, the spiritual pressure or a certain ability has reached the upper limit... Note that this upper limit is the real upper limit, not the so-called 'limit'. Although it is very rare, it is definitely not zero!
At that point...
Comprehensiveness is the greatest advantage!
At the end of the day…
There is still a serious lack of experience points.
