Two appeared outside the White Tower, on the top of a building.
"Mr. Iwajiu, the voice has disappeared."
Hanataro turned his head and looked in the direction he came from, with a worried look in his eyes: "Mr. Ichigo, will he be okay?"
"We're already here, so we can only pretend that nothing's wrong with him."
Yanjiu looked at the White Tower that was just around the corner and said in a solemn tone: "Our mission is to rescue the Death God named Lucia. Now is not the time to be distracted."
As he spoke, Yanjiu took out the prepared hook rope from the pocket behind his back and threw it directly towards the low eaves of the White Tower.
…
"Is it over?"
Duanmu raised his head and glanced in the direction of the Penance Palace. The spiritual pressure of Kurosaki Ichigo and Zaraki Kenpachi disappeared almost at the same time.
Is it really a lose-lose situation?
Duan Mu was actually not particularly surprised by this. Firstly, it was because he already had the outcome of this battle in his memory, and secondly, because...
Unlike Kenpachi Zaraki, Ichigo Kurosaki, who has mixed powers, can always achieve explosive growth at critical moments through a heart-to-heart relationship with his Zanpakutō or other methods.
The most important thing is... the power brought by Kurosaki Ichigo's explosive growth can always surpass the calculation results derived by Zaraki Kenpachi.
Based on this alone, it is destined to be difficult for the two to decide the winner.
One is self-sealing by instinct, and the other is sealing and suppression by Zanpakutō...
To be honest, in Duanmu's opinion, even if Kurosaki Ichigo, who has mastered the swastika, were to fight Zaraki Kenpachi again, the result would probably not be much different from now.
"What happened?"
Hisagi Shuhei stood beside Duanmu and followed his gaze towards the confession palace: "Is there anyone among the cargo who can fight with the captain?"
Who is the captain of the Gotei 13th Division?
Those were the thirteen people who truly stood at the top of the Soul Society. He never expected that... among the travel disasters that Captain Duan Mu easily dealt with, there would actually be a travel disaster that could compete with the captain!
Who are these people? And why did they invade Seireitei?
"Um?"
Duan Mu frowned, retracted his gaze from the Confession Palace, and instead turned to look in the direction of Room 46 of Zhenyang.
"What is this spiritual pressure?"
"Captain Duan Mu..."
Hisagi Shuhei heard Duan Mu muttering to himself and asked with some confusion: "What happened?"
Duan Mu didn't reply, a flash of light flashed in his eyes at this moment.
He finally understood...
Why were Ishida Uryū and Chadata Taitora able to reach their ninth division so easily?
The other captains are not fishing, but are carrying out operations in secret.
Thinking of this, Duan Mu activated the detection circuit simulated by his spiritual void patterns to the extreme, and stared at the forty-sixth room of Zhenyang in the distance.
…
Outside Mao Forty-Six.
At this time, all the ten layers of barriers protecting the forty-sixth room of Zhenyang were opened.
Several figures stood outside the barrier, all looking intently towards the end of the long walkway. As long as they passed the walkway in front of them, they would arrive at the underground meeting hall of Room 46 of the Mao.
but……
However, this path was not opened by them, but before they came here, this path had already been fully unfolded.
It's like...
It was as if he knew they were coming and opened the door deliberately to welcome them.
Jingraku Shunsui frowned slightly, then turned to look at the people around him, asking for their opinions.
"Now that I'm here, I'll go in and take a look no matter what."
Ukitake Jushiro said calmly. After saying that, he turned his head and looked aside.
Looking around him, he saw the three people of Komamura's left formation, Hitsugaya Toshiro, and Kuchiki Byakuya standing on one side.
Kuchiki Byakuya did not speak, but after glancing at Ukitake Jūshirō, he stepped straight into Mao's 46th room.
After the captain meeting last night, Kyōraku Shunsui suddenly found him and brought a letter from Ukitake Jūshirō. It was precisely because of the contents of the letter that he appeared here.
Therefore, he must confirm!
Seeing this, Jingraku Shunsui looked at the other two people.
In fact, he initially disagreed with Ukitake's proposal to gather the captains and go to Mao's 46th room together.
Because if everything Yoruichi said is true, then there must be others among the captains who are his companions. If he rashly leaks this matter, it is very likely that he will alert the enemy.
The reason Ukitake chose to gather the captains was also because of this. When the opponent's number was uncertain, he had to gather as much trustworthy force as possible to be sure to subdue the opponent.
Originally, they planned to take only Byakuya Kuchiki with them.
But if you enter the 46th room of Zhenyang privately, you will definitely be noticed by the seventh team guarding the inner court. Instead of being dragged by him and explaining, it is better to tell the truth directly and take him with you.
As for the last Toshiro Hitsugaya, it was because of the responsibilities of the 10th Division.
Among the Gotei 13th Division, the 10th Division is the only police force with special investigative powers. Under special circumstances, they have the privilege to enter any area to investigate and collect evidence. This area also includes...
Room 46 of Mao!
The premise is that there must be certain reasons and suspicions!
So in the end, after some discussion, Ukitake and Kyōraku decided to call Toshiro Hitsugaya together.
This also leads to...
All five captains of the Gotei 13th Division have gathered here.
"I will also go."
Komamura Left Front said in a serious tone: "But no matter what the situation is, I will report it to Captain Yamamoto."
"I'll go too."
Hitsugaya Toshiro didn't know what he thought of, and frowned: "I have to confirm whether Aizen has rebelled as you said!"
Jingraku Shunsui smiled when he heard this and walked straight along the street to the underground meeting hall.
Ukitake Jūshirō followed closely behind, and Hitsugaya and Komamura Zuozhen looked at each other and followed suit.
When several people came through the barrier, they found Kuchiki Byakuya, who was the first to enter, standing outside the entrance of the meeting hall with a cold look on his face, with an extremely strong murderous intent faintly emerging from his body.
Upon seeing this, several people immediately quickened their pace, came to Kuchiki Byakuya's side, and looked into the underground meeting hall.
The scene that caught their eyes made everyone's expressions sink.
Looking around, I saw that the once aloof sages were now lying in a pool of solidified and black blood.
Here...
There are not only the surviving sages and judges, but also those sages and judges who were assassinated by Tōsen Kaname and Inaba Kagerouzu.
The scene in front of them made everyone look a little ugly.
Because the bodies of these people were not found when they searched the entire forty-six rooms under the leadership of Captain Yamamoto. In the end, they thought they had been destroyed by Tōsen Kaname and the two and stopped the investigation.
But now it seems that someone had deceived them all!
And the most important thing is, judging from the traces of dried blood and the degree of dissipation of spirit bodies, these people obviously died at the same time, including the sages and judges who appeared in front of them alive and were definitely not replaced.
How did the other party do it?
"Swastika: Divine Killing Spear!!"
At this moment, a low groan suddenly came from outside.
Buzz~~
The sound of breaking through the air sounded without any warning.
A flash of silver light arrived in an instant, with an astonishing speed.
But none of the five people present were simple people. They reacted at the same time almost as soon as they heard the word "Swastika".
clang--!!
The sound of gold and iron clashing sounded. Ukitake held two long knives of strange shapes across his chest, and his spiritual pressure surged around him. But even so, under the impact of the silver light, he still slid towards the underground meeting hall.
go.
God's Killing Gun!?
This swastika is...
Everyone looked outside the walkway at the same time and saw a young man with a strange smile on his face, standing outside the barrier.
Captain of the Third Division: Gin Ichimaru.
After noticing the gazes of several people, Ichimaru Gin showed a smile on his face, and suddenly raised his hand and waved to them...
"Ichimaru Gin, you..."
Hitsugaya Toshiro subconsciously drew out his Zanpakutō and rushed outside.
But just taking a few steps...
Bang!
A huge muffled sound was heard, and the giant open barrier door on the outermost layer suddenly closed.
This scene made Hitsugaya's expression change, and he retreated towards the back.
Almost at the same time as he retreated to the underground meeting hall, banging and banging sounds were heard one after another, and the ten layers of barriers were closed almost in an instant.
"It seems... we have stepped into a trap."
The spring water from Jingle pressed down the bamboo hat, and his expression turned gloomy.
The last time Duan Mu invaded the 46th room of Mao, he forcibly destroyed the ten layers of barriers created by imitating the 72 barriers of the Soul King Palace in an unknown way. Afterwards, under the order of the captain, the ghosts gathered all their strength to attack
The ten layers of barriers were repaired, and a group of captains were infused with spiritual pressure.
The defensive performance of today's barrier is even better than before!
…
Did you find anything in the investigation?
Duan Mu looked in the direction of Zhenyang's 46th room, his brows furrowed, and he couldn't help but feel a little nervous.
He really didn't expect that those captains would choose this moment to take action.
What happened?
Several captains, including Kuchiki Byakuya, have gathered there. Doesn't that mean there is no way to stop Iwasu and Hanataro... huh?
Duan Mu's expression suddenly changed, and he turned his head sharply to look in the direction of the Confession Palace.
Although Kurosaki Ichigo's spiritual pressure has disappeared for a long time, the spiritual pressure of Iwajigo and the two has already entered the confession palace.
If nothing unexpected happens, the two of them should have come into contact with Rukia Kuchiki!
If things go according to his own memory, the person who stopped them from taking Rukia away should be Byakuya Kuchiki.
And at this time...
Kuchiki Byakuya and others went to Mao's forty-sixth room.
Normally, there should be no captain-level characters there, and it would not be difficult for the two of them to take away Rukia Kuchiki.
But……
Just now, the aura of the Rock Eagle was weakening rapidly. All this happened in an instant. Even Duan Mu didn't feel any aura appearing. If it weren't for the weakening of the Eagle's aura, he didn't even notice the direction of the Confession Palace.
Accidents occurred.
"Oops!!"
Duan Mu's expression changed: "Hisaki, do you believe me?"
"Um?"
Hisagi was startled when he heard this.
"If you believe me, apply for support immediately. Something happened at the Confession Palace!"
After that, without waiting for Hisagi Shuhei's reply, he quietly disappeared from the spot.
At this moment, Shunpo was stimulated to the extreme by Duan Mu. In an instant, he had left the ninth area and rushed straight towards the confession palace.
But the moment Duan Mu rushed out of the ninth area, a layer of dark mist suddenly formed, swallowing Duan Mu whole like a monster.
"Swastika · Qing Chong Final Style · Yama Cricket!"
…
At the same time, the confession was outside the palace.
Hanataro looked at the figure on the rope bridge outside the prison with a horrified expression.
It was a middle-aged man wearing captain's feathers and glasses. He had a gentle and harmless smile on his face and walked slowly and slowly.
But neither Hanataro nor Rukia, who was wearing a prison uniform beside him, felt reassured by the other's smile. Instead, a fatal sense of fear emerged from the depths of their souls!
because……
Behind the opponent, the rock vulture lying in a pool of blood was chopped down to the ground with a knife under the opponent's smile.
"Aizen...Captain Aizen?"
Rukia Kuchiki looked at the man walking step by step, called out his name, and then said urgently: "No... Captain Aizen, they are innocent... I will never leave here, please..."
"Haha~~"
Aizen's chuckle interrupted Lucia's plea, and he shook his head slightly: "You probably misunderstood something."
Rukia Kuchiki was startled when she heard this. Before she could figure out what Aizen meant by this, Ichika suddenly appeared in front of her.
"I wonder if you want to escape from prison."
Phew~~
There was a sound of flesh being penetrated, and a hand penetrated through Kuchiki Rukia's chest.
"Not interested."
Hanataro looked at Aizen who suddenly appeared next to him and penetrated Kuchiki Rukia's body with his palm, and his pupils shrank sharply.
The palm full of lines like a tree trunk was slowly pulled out, and Aizen's palm gradually returned to normal after completely leaving Kuchiki Rukia's spirit body.
And between his thumb and index finger, there was an extra diamond-like object.
"Um?"
Looking at the object in his hand, Aizen frowned slightly.
Although the broken jade is as transparent and bright as a diamond, there is a layer of dark red light that is constantly flowing on its surface.
That light is blood...
This blood is not floating on the surface, but integrated into the broken jade, making it look like it is covered with a layer of red gauze.
Hanataro on the side focused his attention on Rukia Kuchiki.
I saw Lucia's chest being penetrated. The penetrating wound on her chest healed quickly after the palm left her hand, and the dark hole disappeared in the blink of an eye.
"Oh, is the soul itself intact?"
When Aizen saw this, he sincerely admired: "What a superb skill." After that, he threw the Lucia in his hand like a rag, then looked at the jade in his hand, and said with a smile: "I should say
As expected of you? This is also a very wonderful sealing method."
There is not much blood on Bengyu, but the blood that rotates according to a certain pattern covers all of Bengyu's aura in a perfect way, completely sealing Bengyu.
Blood problem?
Aizen looked at the jade in his hand with interest.
