Chapter 594 587. Byakuya Kuchiki: I don’t want to say it a second time
"found it!"
Kurosaki Ichigo gritted his teeth and suddenly reached out to grab the only red thing.
The spiritual network, which was like a substance, was pulled in his hand, and the box connected to it was instantly pulled in front of him.
"Click-" the box opened.
He saw the hilt of the knife extending slowly from it.
At this moment, Kurosaki Ichigo finally knew what was calling him.
This is his Zanpakutō!
"You finally found it..."
A voice came from behind.
Kurosaki Ichigo suddenly turned around and saw the old man with a gloomy face again.
I just don’t know why the expression on this uncle’s face is now gloomier than before, as if he is constipated.
"Looking at your unhappy face, is there anything wrong with me finding it?"
"No...it's nothing."
A forced smile appeared on the man's face, "That's good. Now that you've found it, it's time to let you know my name..."
"your name……"
Kurosaki Ichigo was stunned for a moment, looked at the uncle behind him, and then at the handle of the knife that was slowly extending out of the box in front of him.
"Are you just..."
"Now is not the time to talk about this! Boy! This place is going to collapse! Pull me out of it now!"
Looking at the world that was almost on the verge of complete collapse, the man almost roared angrily.
Kurosaki Ichigo is the most suitable candidate in thousands of years. The opportunity is fleeting, how could he let it slip away from his eyes?
"Ah? Oh!"
Kurosaki Ichigo reacted immediately.
He had almost figured out the situation in front of him.
This... is the spiritual world that allows him to communicate with his Zanpakutō!
Didn't the hedgehog-head tease him before that he didn't even know the name of his Zanpakutō? Now, after seeing the true form, wouldn't he know it right away!?
"hey-hey!"
An excited smile appeared on his face.
When the whole world was about to collapse, Kurosaki Ichigo grasped the handle of the sword.
······
"!!"
Buzz——
A sudden and intense surprise instantly rose from the pit, and energy fluctuations visible to the naked eye spread out in all directions from the center of the cave.
Urahara Kisuke frowned and stood in front of Xiao Yu, staring closely at the deep pit filled with spiritual light.
"Store manager...what is going on!?" Jinta took a few steps back in shock.
Could there be such a huge formation for human beings to become hollow? This was the first time he had seen such a formation, and he was completely confused.
"ah--"
Like an angry roar, at the bottom of the pit, Kurosaki Ichigo, whose hands were bound, roared, and unprecedentedly powerful spiritual pressure overflowed from his body, almost more powerful than when he was a Shinigami.
Tetshai, who was guarding the entrance of the cave to maintain the binding, had cold sweat on his forehead.
"No way, store manager! Ordinary binding can no longer trap him! It seems I have to switch to the blocking type!"
With that said, before Urahara Kisuke could respond, Tessai began to move. He thrust his hands into the ground and injected a large amount of spiritual power into the hole, "The Ninety-nine of the Binding Road, No. 2! Swastika!"
"The first song - stop the tension!"
As Tessai chanted, huge spiritual power condensed in the air and instantly turned into a bandage, wrapping Kurosaki Ichigo's entire body, as if trying to restrict his movements.
But what makes Tessai feel ashamed is that he still can't seem to control Kurosaki Ichigo who is going berserk just by doing this.
The moment the bandage was tightened, it began to collapse due to the huge spiritual pressure.
So he continued to sing.
"Erqu——Bailiansha!"
Several spiral iron cones appeared around Kurosaki Ichigo, and then plunged towards the location where the spiritual power surged.
In an instant, the spiritual energy flowing out of Ichigo Kurosaki seemed to be blocked and stagnant for a moment.
Taking advantage of this moment of stasis, Tessai's movements in his hands continued, and he put his hands together to form the final mark.
"Finale!"
"Wait! Tessai!" Jinta roared with cold sweat on his forehead, "What are you doing!? If you use this trick, won't that kid be dead?"
"There is no other way! This is also a last resort."
Tessai did not stop what he was doing, "I must suppress him now! Deal with him before he turns into a Hollow, otherwise it will be troublesome to really turn him into a Hollow with this formation!"
"Swastika Taifeng!"
Accompanied by Teeshai's roar, a huge swastika-shaped stone tablet fell from the sky and fell straight into the pit.
Suppressed by such a bound path, let alone a soul that has not yet transformed into a void, even a void at the level of a great void can easily seal the opponent inside with his strength.
But changes suddenly occurred.
"!?"
Urahara Kisuke seemed to have noticed something, and immediately pulled the two children around him away from the hole, and quickly squatted down to protect them.
boom--
The entire underground cave seemed to be about to collapse and shook violently for an instant. Fortunately, the shaking stopped in an instant.
Something jumped out of the pit and hit the ground.
Everyone stared at the direction of the dust with vigilance. No one knew whether it was a void or something that escaped from inside.
"What's going on... Teeshai's binding method... was broken so easily?"
Jinta got out of Urahara Kisuke's arms and looked at the dusty place with some horror, "What on earth is this kid..."
"!!?"
Before the smoke cleared, he saw a pair of eyes that didn't look like humans in the thick smoke.
"Could it be that... he has really become hollow?"
Jinta asked nervously.
However, before anyone could respond to him, the shadow in the dust broke through the smoke and came to them in an instant.
When he fully saw the true appearance of this shadow, Jinta was filled with doubts.
"What's happening here?"
What was in front of him at this moment was a humanoid figure, a humanoid figure dressed in a Death Tyrant costume.
Logically speaking, this should be a 'god of death', but this humanoid face is covered with a mask that is as terrifying and ferocious as a Hollow, and the eyes of the mask reveal an angry gaze that seems to choose and devour anyone.
"Gulu..."
Jinta looked at the other party's extremely weird costume and couldn't tell for a moment whether the other party was a god of death or a Hollow.
"Is it the God of Death? Or the Hollow? Which one is it?"
"..."
Facing Jinta's question, the figure did not speak, but slowly touched the handle of the knife behind him.
"This is... a Zanpakutō!? It breaks... breaks? Wait... wait! What are you going to do!?"
Jinta watched with confusion on his face as the figure in front of him pulled out a Zanpakuto with only the hilt left from behind, and then watched in stunned silence as the figure smashed the hilt against the mask on his face.
"Huh~ I'm so suffocated."
Kurosaki Ichigo lifted up his smashed mask and breathed a sigh of relief.
"What! You scared me! It turns out your kid didn't become a virtual one!"
Seeing Kurosaki Ichigo complaining, Jinta and Xiaoyu breathed a sigh of relief, with smiles on their faces.
"Hahaha, congratulations!"
Urahara Kisuke, who was standing behind the two children, also smiled and congratulated, "It seems that you have successfully transformed back into a Shinigami. It's really gratifying—"
"boom."
The hilt of the knife slammed into the face, causing Urahara Kisuke to scream instantly.
"Ah!! My handsome face!"
"It's so noisy! Shut up."
Kurosaki Ichigo's eyes were full of murderous intent, "You bastard! You made me really think I was going to die! I swear! As long as I can get out of that pit alive, I will kill you!"
"Forehead……"
Jinta and Xiaoyu looked at each other. No wonder the eyes under the masks were so scary just now. It turned out that they were really angry...
"Oh? Kill me?"
Urahara Kisuke seemed to have heard something interesting, and he stopped rubbing his face with a faint smile on his face, "That's good, let's start the third training right away~ There is no time limit! As long as you can use that Zanpaku
If you hit me with a knife, even if it kills me, I won’t complain~"
"You guy!"
Ichigo Kurosaki had veins popping out on his forehead, "You really think I won't come!"
As he spoke, without saying a word, he raised the Zanpakuto in his hand and slashed it upwards. The broken blade drew a perfect arc in the air and instantly slashed towards Urahara Kisuke's chin.
"Qiang——"
A crisp metallic sound came to mind.
"Forehead?"
Kurosaki Ichigo was stunned.
He didn't see the opponent holding a weapon in his hand, but he did feel like something had blocked his slashing blow just now.
"hehe."
Urahara Kisuke chuckled and stood motionless in front of Kurosaki Ichigo, "That's okay, kid. You have good momentum. The broken Zanpakutō can still have such a level of power that it almost hit me~"
"Hmph! You are so arrogant, you clog hat! You said there is no time limit, let me chop you to death in five minutes!"
As he spoke, an excited smile appeared on Kurosaki Ichigo's face, he raised his knife and pounced forward again.
Of course he was joking, but he was really excited now. Because the power of the God of Death was back! No, it was not a return, it was a real awakening!
He could clearly feel that countless powers were emerging in his body. This power was even stronger than when he became a god of death because of Lucia! But now he really needs a game where he can let go and release it.
A battle of strength to vent the gushing power!
"Oh? You look very confident."
Urahara Kisuke lowered the brim of his hat, his eyes under the brim became a little gloomy, and the smile on his face became a little cruel.
This kid...is really a little bloated?
The man named Xuan Hao just came here and stood quietly outside the pit for about an hour. He didn't know what he was doing. This was not something he should be concerned about. He only needed to carry out what the man told him when he left.
Already.
"This kid will definitely swell a little later, don't forget to hit it hard, hard."
"Boy, I'm sorry."
As he spoke, Urahara Kisuke slowly pulled out his Zanpakutō that had not been unsheathed for who knows how many years.
"Wake up! Beniji!"
"!!?"
Kurosaki Ichigo's forward movement paused momentarily.
Because the powerful spiritual pressure rushing towards him blocked him like an insurmountable wall.
"Who...is this guy?"
At this moment, Kurosaki Ichigo finally knew how the opponent blocked his slash just now.
The Zanpakutō has been hidden in the opponent's cane, and this guy must have drawn the sword just now, but he couldn't even see a shadow!
The man in front of me is very strong, ridiculously strong. At least the power shown by him at this moment is stronger than that of Byakuya Kuchiki before!
······
"Aqiu——"
Soul Society, on the way to the prison cell.
Byakuya Kuchiki sneezed inexplicably.
He looked around and found that no one noticed his gaffe and calmly returned to his normal appearance.
"It's really strange...how could the God of Death catch a cold?"
He had some doubts in his heart, but he didn't pay too much attention to it. What was more important now was the ultimatum in his hand, which was an ultimatum regarding Lucia's crimes.
Squeezing the ultimatum in his hand, Kuchiki Byakuya frowned.
But when he walked to the door of the cell, the expression on his face became calm again.
"team leader!"
Renji Abarai saw his captain coming and stepped forward nervously, "How's it going? What you have in your hand is..."
"For the first-degree serious crime, Kuchiki Rukia will be executed as a prisoner... twenty-five days later at the Mao Execution Ground. This is Soul Society's final decision."
Before Renji Abarai could ask a question, Byakuya Kuchiki calmly raised the ultimatum in his hand to signal.
Sure enough, as Lucia said, this man definitely did not ask those guys to give Lucia a lenient sentence.
"As you heard, I don't want to say it a second time."
Kuchiki Byakuya frowned, his expression cold.
Renji is really not sensible at all. Who would want to say such unpleasant things again?
"This should be the last time I talk to you, Lucia. The next time we meet, it will probably be on the Chuxing stage..."
Byakuya Kuchiki looked at Rukia who was locked in the cell without saying a word. After a moment, seeing that the other party still didn't respond, he could only turn around and leave slowly.
"It seems...this is really the last time we speak..."
He muttered to himself in a voice that only he could hear.
Neither Renji Abarai nor Rukia Kuchiki noticed the look in Byakuya Kuchiki's eyes at this moment, which was as gentle as realization and relief regardless of life and death.
"Feizhen, I should come to see you soon..."
This is a secret that only Kuchiki Byakuya keeps deep in his heart, a secret that he has never told Rukia.
He would adopt Lucia not because of the right 'qualification' or anything else, but because of a person, a person as peaceful as the crimson sky, his late wife, Kuchiki Hijin.
He didn't plan to tell this secret to Lucia, because this was what Fei Zhen meant.
He was just 'atoneing' on behalf of his deceased wife, to atone for the sins of the man who abandoned his infant sister.
It is Feizhen's last wish to protect Lucia, and it is Feizhen's wish that Lucia call him 'brother'. However, he will only choose to silently fulfill his deceased wife's wish and protect Lucia who does not know the truth until the last moment.
