With the arrival of Duan Mu, the repair work of Xuye Palace officially started.
As for the manpower, there is no need to worry at all. As Tiruti said, there are countless Arrancars who can engage in physical labor. In addition, there are Hollows distributed throughout Hueco Mundo. It is not difficult to gather these Arrancars and Hollows.
To a certain extent, Hueco Mundo may actually be more united than Soul Society.
Because Hueco Mundo adheres to the principle that the strong is respected, here the Ten Blades are the king, and any Ten Blades can control Arrancar and Hollows other than the Ten Blades at will.
It's just that the Ten Blades prefer to fight with individuals rather than working together. It's rare for the Ten Blades to control a group of Hollows to consume the opponent's physical strength.
Standing among the ruins, Duan Mu looked at the vast construction scene in front of him, feeling strange no matter how he looked at it.
Those Arrancars who barely looked like human beings were fine, but those Kilians with various shapes and shapes, and those who looked like walking skyscrapers, appeared at the construction site, which was really hard for people to adapt to.
However, compared to Duan Mu, Urahara Kisuke seemed very calm, and he was familiar with the way to direct the repair work.
Regarding the candidates to repair the sky, Duan Mu could only think of two people, one was Urahara Kisuke, and the other was Nirvana.
These two people would probably not refuse if they asked them to repair the canopy.
But in the end, after some hesitation, Duan Mu chose to bring Urahara Kisuke here.
Because, if Nirvana is asked to repair the sky cover, then he will definitely leave countless secret hands in Xuye Palace. It can be said that as long as you stay in Xuye Palace, there will be absolutely no privacy at all.
At this point, Urahara Kisuke is actually the same.
Duan Mu still remembers...
All the command machines that Kisuke Urahara gave him basically have functions that the command machines should not have.
However, compared to Nirvana, his level of madness is still slightly lower, and although Urahara Kisuke is a faction that maintains the status quo, he does not belong to the Gotei 13th Division. From a standpoint, it is obviously better to invite him.
to be appropriate.
Urahara Kisuke led the team to repair the canopy, and Duan Mu led the team to rebuild various damaged buildings. With the tireless help of Xu, the progress of both of them can be said to be very fast.
Of course, this 'tireless' was what Tiruti said, and the Hollows and Arrancars did not refute it. Duan Mu didn't care whether they felt tired or not...
"Master Duan Mu, is there anything else you need me to do?"
A figure wearing a bull skull-shaped mask stood behind Duan Mu and said in a respectful tone: "If you need it, please don't be polite. I can create more subordinates."
Duan Mu looked at Ludburn behind him and smiled slightly: "Then please go to the Great Void Forest and cut down some trees. Those irrational Kilians always arrive halfway when no one is controlling them.
He ran back to the Great Void Forest."
"You're too kind."
Ludben said in a respectful tone: "Lord Tiruti asked me to obey your orders. You don't need to be so polite at all."
Although Lord Aizen, who had endowed himself with the abilities of a creator, was defeated by the Death God in front of him, this made Ludburn, who respected Aizen extremely, somewhat unacceptable.
But when he heard that the other party could further evolve the Arrancar, Ludburn immediately took over the task of assisting Duanmu in repairing it.
And with the contact, he found that this Lord Duanmu felt like the original Lord Aizen. He treated everyone gently. Being with him did not make him feel strange, but felt extremely comfortable.
In the distance, three figures stood in a ruins, looking at Duan Mu who was directing the work of the virtual ones, their expressions were a little strange.
"This scene looks really awkward."
A female Arrancar with short blue-black hair, a dark red eyeliner-like facial pattern on her left eye, and a rhinoceros horn-shaped mask said, "Why should we obey the orders of a god of death!"
"Didn't it happen before?"
Next to the girl with short blue and black hair, the female Arrancar with dark green bangs-length hair and three round teardrops under her right eye covered her face with her sleeves and said, "It's just a different person now.
"
"Apache, Sun Sun, you two, don't forget Lord Harribel's instructions." The tall and strong woman on the side reminded.
"Tch, don't you want to offend him?"
The girl known as Apache glanced at the tall and strong woman: "Mira, I don't need you to reiterate, and we are so far away from him, so what's the matter? Besides, the 'big man' who defeated Aizen is also
They won’t come here to pay attention to our three subordinate officers.”
"No."
A voice suddenly reached the ears of the three of them: "I still heard it."
"..."
The sudden sound startled the three of them. They followed the sound and discovered that Duan Mu, who was dozens of meters away a second ago, had already arrived behind the three of them.
Duan Mu looked at the three people in front of him with a smile on his face: "Don't be nervous, I just came here to ask the three of you if you have any requirements for a place to live, so that when I rebuild again, I can do it in advance.
It’s good to plan accordingly.”
"For example, Miss Sun, the environment in Hueco Mundo is relatively dry, which should make you feel very uncomfortable. When I rebuild the house, I can engrave some moist spiritual patterns that can absorb the spirit on its own, and the windows can also be used by you.
Like to remove..."
"Miss Apache..."
"And Miss Mira Rhodes..."
Duan Mu talked a lot, making the three of them look a little dull.
After a while, Apache looked at Duan Mu in front of him and said calmly: "Do you know us?"
Although he previously acted like he didn't take Duanmu seriously at all, that was entirely because Duanmu was not around. After all, the Shinigami in front of him was the one who defeated Aizen, not to mention that even Lord Harribel had repeatedly warned him.
There are several of you, don't offend each other.
Duan Mu smiled when he heard this, but he couldn't help but murmur in his heart.
In such a huge Hueco Mundo, there were only so many female Arrancars who could provide him with experience points. How could he not remember them.
On the second day after arriving in Hueco Mundo, Duan Mu investigated all the information about female Arrancars from various channels. Regardless of their height, habits and preferences, Duan Mu firmly remembered them in his heart.
So as soon as the three of them arrived here, Duan Mu had already noticed them and had been thinking of ways to communicate with them.
"Tirudi has mentioned your situation to me, so I want to seek your opinions as much as possible to create an environment that you think is the most livable." After that, Duan Mu took his hands from the pocket of his black work clothes.
He took out three business cards and handed them to the three of them:
"Let me introduce myself, I am Duan Mu from Wanshiwu, I am responsible for..."
After briefly introducing what Wanshiwu is, Duan Mu paused and continued: "If you need anything, you can contact me at any time. There is no need to worry about being unable to contact me, because there will also be a Wanshiwu branch in Xuye Palace. I
I have already obtained Luojia’s consent, and she will help me take on Hueco Mundo’s commission.”
Commission?
Hearing this, the three people looked at Duan Mu with more and more strange eyes.
Because if Duan Mu wants to, the entire Hueco Mundo belongs to him, so why should he spare such a large circle.
Although the three of them don't like to obey the orders of the God of Death, as long as Lord Harribel recognizes each other's status, they won't say anything more.
"Is there something wrong with your brain?"
Apache, who has the most impulsive personality, subconsciously blurted out the words, but after she finished speaking, she regretted it.
The two companions beside her were also startled by her words. They gathered around her and looked at Duan Mu warily.
Although in normal times, the three of them often quarrel, giving people a very disharmonious feeling.
But when the crisis came, the three of them stood together without hesitation, even if they faced someone who could defeat Aizen.
"Why do you say that?"
Duan Mu shook his head slightly: "I think your idea is a bit weird. Why do you think I want to become the new king of Hueco Mundo?"
"Isn't that nonsense?"
Seeing that Duan Mu was not annoyed by his offense, Apache simply let go: "You defeated Aizen and transformed the Ten Blades. If it wasn't to control Hueco Mundo, why would you put in so much effort?
Help Lord Tiruti and the others evolve."
To make friends!
Duan Mu secretly replied in his heart.
He is not interested in becoming the king of Hueco Mundo because it is difficult to win her favor when the status gap is huge.
Although it is somewhat inappropriate, ants do not have the guts to make friends with humans who can easily trample them to death.
But in front of Duan Mu...
The three Apaches are actually no different from ants.
All three of them knew this.
Becoming the king of Hueco Mundo is like announcing his identity as a sage from the Forty-sixth Chamber of Mao. No matter how approachable he is, it will be difficult for him to win the favor of others. This is something Duan Mu absolutely cannot accept.
"In your opinion, do I help Tiruti evolve in order to rule Hueco Mundo?"
Duan Mu shook his head slightly:
"When I first helped Tiruti, it wasn't as complicated as you think. It was just to save my life. If I hadn't shown my value, I would have died in Tiruti's hands."
As soon as these words came out, the three people present couldn't help but be stunned.
Duan Mu didn't hide anything, and told what happened when he first came to Hueco Mundo, not only to tell the three people, but also to tell them that after discovering that he was in contact with the three people, he rushed over immediately and hid in the
Harribel in the dark.
Of course, there were other people eavesdropping secretly, but Duan Mu didn't bother to pay attention to people who couldn't provide him with experience points.
"...That's it. I was captured by Tiruti and studied ways to further enhance her strength."
Duan Mu sat on the ruins, looked at the three people who were listening attentively, and continued: "And after spending time together day and night, I found that Xu is not as scary as I thought. Unknowingly, we turned from enemies to friends.
, she originally forced me to conduct research, but now I actively help her find ways to evolve."
"So you don't have to worry about me wanting to be a Hollow King like Aizen, and you don't have to worry about me because I'm a Shinigami. After all, strictly speaking, the relationship between me and the Gotei Thirteenth Division is also an employment relationship.
Regardless of the relationship, I have been a resident of Rukongai from beginning to end, not a resident of Seireitei."
"Of course, if Hueco Mundo goes to war with Soul Society, as a resident of Soul Society's Rukongai, I will definitely choose to help Soul Society. After all, that is where I have lived for decades."
"Who would go to war with Soul Society?"
Apache pouted. Strictly speaking, there is no direct conflict between Hueco Mundo and Soul Society. After all, there is a real world sandwiched between the two worlds.
At first, there were disputes between the two sides, but as time passed, Soul Society and Hueco Mundo reached a delicate balance. Except for some special groups of people in this world, neither side would break this balance.
Therefore, the battle between Hollow and the Shinigami basically takes place in this world, not in Hueco Mundo or Soul Society.
And these battles, without exception, were between some newly transformed bastards and those of the Gotei 13th Division... The real combat power of both sides, if it weren't for Aizen, would have basically never come into contact.
As far as Arrancar is concerned, they no longer need to devour human souls to satisfy their hunger. Apart from running to the present world to 'get' things like Tiruti, they will not go to the present world at all, and naturally they will not have any conflicts with the God of Death.
The most important thing is...
Although a long time has passed, the old man who played with fire really left a big psychological shadow on the three of them.
"Don't you want to rule the entire Hueco Mundo at all?" Sun Sun on the side said with some disbelief.
"What do I do when I rule Hueco Mundo?"
Duan Mu said helplessly: "Do you want me to take you to attack your own home?"
"There are people in this world who have goals, such as Aizen. His goal is to fill the void period of the Heavenly Throne and become... a so-called god, as he said, and he has been acting for this goal. And I..."
"Then there is no such lofty goal."
"If you really want to say it, you can probably only let the friends around you be safe."
"So I come here just because my friends need my help, not to rule Hueco Mundo or anything else."
[Harribel's favorability is 1, 1600 experience points gained, current favorability: 25]
[Mila Rhodes favorability is 1, 160 experience points gained, current favorability: 7]
[Apache favorability is 1, gained 320 experience points, current favorability: 11]
[Sun Sun's favorability is 1, 160 experience points gained, current favorability: 9]
The reminder in his mind made Duan Mu couldn't help but peek at the place where Harribel was hiding. It seemed that he had not told the three of them so much in vain.
However, compared to Nelu, the experience points Harribel can provide for each point of favorability are still a bit less.
It seems that the process of reorganizing their spiritual cores needs to be advanced. Only by making them stronger can they provide more experience points for themselves.
After chatting with the three people for a while, Duan Mu went back to continue directing the repair work.
As the saying goes, too much is not enough, if you are too affectionate, it will cause the three of you to doubt your own motives.
This is the experience Duan Mu has accumulated over the years. Although the object of experience accumulation is the Shinigami, it should be similar to Arrancar.
"Huh huh huh huh~"
Looking at the increasing experience points, Duan Mu couldn't help humming a tune, feeling more and more that he really came to Hueco Mundo at the right time.
"Does it make you happy to please a few subordinate officers?" A voice came from behind Duan Mu.
Duan Mu was not surprised. He turned around and glanced at Grimmjow, who was leaning against the wall with a displeased look on his face. He smiled and said, "Speaking of which, the last time we met was in a hurry. I haven't said hello to you yet."
"Hmph, I have no interest in saying hello to the God of Death."
Grimmjow said in a disdainful tone: "Not to mention a aimless god of death."
"Tsk, tsk, what you mean by this is that I am not the King of Xu. Do you feel very sorry?"
When Grimmjow heard this, his expression suddenly turned ugly.
"I think it's good for you to be like this now. We can discuss everything and don't have to force a virtual king to lead you."
Duan Mu paused, looked at Grimmjow and shook his head: "If you think Hueco Mundo should have a Void King just like Soul Society has the Soul King, then there is no need."
"The Soul King is not as beautiful as you imagined. In order to be able to be independent like you, the Soul Society has done many things that you cannot imagine."
"That's why Aizen doesn't want to surrender to 'that kind of thing', but wants to replace it."
Grimmjow frowned when he heard this, but he didn't ask too much. Instead, he turned around and left the place, but he didn't want to say anything more to Duan Mu.
Duan Mu looked at his leaving figure and suddenly realized that this guy was unexpectedly very innocent.
It's just you who helped me. You are better than me, so if you become the king, I have no problem with it... and others can't.
