Bang——
The long knife rubbed across the blade, causing fireworks, and then slowly returned to the scabbard.
The huge blade made a heart-stopping metallic sound as it was sheathed.
The movements of Komamura's left formation and the 'Black Rope Tenshu Mingou' behind him were consistent. When his Zanpakutō was completely returned to the scabbard, the towering figure behind him also completed the action of sheathing the sword and gradually turned into a point of light. Dissipated with the wind.
"Amazing……"
Madarame Ikkaku couldn't help but feel a little shocked when he saw the Komamura Zuozhen in front of him, from using his swastika to ending the battle, using only one sword to kill the Arrancar who defeated him. He thought that even if he was a swastika, he might be able to defeat this Arrancar in its previous state, and if this Arrancar had returned to its current state, the outcome would be unpredictable.
After mastering the swastika, he always believed that his strength was already at the level of a captain. As for why he was in the third position, it was just because he was in the 11th Division with the strongest combat effectiveness.
But now he seems to finally understand...it turns out that these captains have never really shown their strength before this moment.
"Of course..."
Tetsuzaemon's tone was a little low, "Your swastika interpretation is far behind that of the captain. Ikkaku, after all, you have been hiding your strength. Since you mastered the swastika interpretation, you have a real sense of Have you ever exercised the power of 'Ki Toumaru'?"
"!? How could you..." Madarame Ikkaku was shocked when he heard this.
He should have never used Swastika in Soul Society, so why would this guy know about it?
Um...wait...why did you say that?
"Do you think no one noticed this? You idiot."
Tetsuzaemon of the shooting range sighed helplessly, "Actually, everyone is just tacitly understanding this, in order to maintain your ridiculous beliefs and persistence."
"Ah this..." Madarame Ikkaku had a strange expression on his face when he heard this.
Do you all know about the co-authorship? I thought I did a good job keeping it secret?
"You have to understand the situation... This time your mission was to protect the pillar, but in the end the pillar was destroyed because of your persistence! It's your business to hide your strength and be killed by the enemy, but... you can't be implicated in this. Innocent people! If Karakura Town is transferred back, everything will be over! Because of personal persistence, the entire Gotei 13 team will be humiliated! Do you think this is right?" Tetsuzaemon's tone changed. Increasingly angry.
"I understand! Mr. Kiba... I understand all of this! But I..." Madarame Ikkaku seemed to want to explain something.
"boom--"
He punched Madarame Ikkaku in the face without mercy, knocking him to the ground.
"What the hell do you understand? Bastard."
Tetsuzaemon of the shooting range rubbed his fists and turned around to leave, "Don't be too naive. This is a battlefield, not an amusement park. You think that even if you die, there will be someone who can replace you. That's what you think in your heart, so it's natural that you lose." .”
"Huh? What did you say!? That I deserved to lose!?" Madarame seemed a little unconvinced when he heard this.
"Isn't it!? Did I say something wrong somewhere!?" Tetsuzaemon Kiba turned back with cold eyes.
"hateful!"
Madarame Ikkaku waved Kitomaru, which had only one broken stick left, and attacked Tetsuzaemon at the shooting range. ….
"snort."
Tetsuzaemon of the shooting field snorted softly, turned around and raised his hand to easily hold Kitomaru in his hand.
"You're obviously injured all over your body, why do you still want to attack like this?"
As he spoke, he pushed away suddenly and put Madarame Ikkaku down to the ground again.
"Fighting like yours is completely meaningless! No matter if you are running away or trying to trick me, it doesn't matter! You have to win for me! If you can't win on the battlefield, there is no point!"
"That kind of cowardly fighting style... I can't do it!!" Madarame Ikkaku retorted.
"Then use all your strength!!!" Tetsuzaemon roared angrily, "Use all your strength to face the enemy head-on! And then win in a dignified manner. Isn't it a man?"
Han! ? That way no one will blame you even if you lose! But you are timid because of your persistence! This is escape! coward! "
As he spoke, Tetsuzaemon turned around again, his back looking a little helpless: "If you want to stick to your principles, then use all your strength...Fight the enemy, you must win even if you die. That...is the right thing to do. Bar?"
"..."
When Madarame heard this, he froze on the spot and remained silent.
"Captain..." Looking at Komamura Zuozhen who had come to them at some point, Tetsuzaemon turned around and raised his head.
"Well……"
Komamura Zuozhen shook his ears in embarrassment and turned away, "Don't worry, my ears don't seem to be very sharp today. It's a pity that I didn't hear what you were saying."
············
"Tsk...those losers actually died like this..."
"hateful……"
Beside the bone seats, the Arrancar subordinate officers looked at the situation in front of them and seemed a little uneasy, arguing quietly.
"Card--"
The armrest of the seat was crushed under the terrifying force of Balegang.
Hearing the broken voice and looking at Bailegang's figure who seemed to be getting up, the Arrancars who were arguing suddenly trembled and hurriedly knelt down.
"I'm extremely sorry! Lord Bailegang! We will destroy them right away! Please be patient!"
The subordinate officers' foreheads were covered with sweat, observing Bailegang's next actions.
There were so many people here, and if they actually asked this person to do it himself...then it didn't take much to think about the consequences that were waiting for them.
No one will ever have mercy on useless waste.
"call……"
It wasn't until they saw Bailegang sitting back again that they heaved a sigh of relief.
"Don't worry, Lord Balegang... we will definitely not let you down again."
"Oh? Really?"
There was contemptuous laughter from behind.
Zhibi took her adjutant Ohmaeda Kichiyo and instantly walked behind the two subordinate officers who were kneeling on the ground.
"You just said... you want to destroy us? Are you serious? If the answer doesn't satisfy me..."
As he spoke, the sound of the blade cutting across the scabbard was heard. Sui Feng calmly pulled out the short knife from his waist, "I'll start with you first."
"..."
The Arrancar subordinate officer with a saber-toothed tiger-like bone mask on his forehead turned back silently, and the expression on his face changed from the awe of Bailegang to contempt and disdain. ….
"Forget it... Judging from your expression, you probably don't intend to answer."
Broken Bee looked at the sarcastic smile on the other person's face with almost the same expression, "No matter whether you answer or not, I will take action."
clang--
Almost as soon as the words fell, the sound of knives like war horns resounded in everyone's ears.
Both the captains and the Arrancars all stared blankly.
Everyone stroked their swords in unison, ready to go.
"Finally...the war is about to officially begin..."
Yamamoto Genryu Sai Shigekuni murmured calmly, and the slightly squinted eyes on his old face suddenly opened, with flames burning in the eyes, which reflected Aizen's figure surrounded by flames in the distance. people.
After confirming that Aizen and the others would probably not break through this confinement in a short period of time, he turned his gaze to Bailegang, who was leading a group of Arrancars, and his eyes became sharp.
"Come on, everyone! Risk everything to completely destroy the enemy here! Even if your body is shattered into pieces, your bones must be turned into an iron wall! One step...cannot let them set foot on the soil of Soul Society!!"
"Oh my, my shoulders... my shoulders are so sore..."
Listening to Captain Yamamoto's impassioned declaration in front of the station, Kyōraku Shunsui lowered the brim of his hat and complained, "Old man Yamamoto is so motivated... Even I was affected..."
"Yes, when the war is over, we will give him
Massage your shoulders. " Jutsuro Ukitake on the side answered, but he seemed to have made a mistake.
"You misunderstood...I said my shoulders are so sore."
Kyoraku Shunsui sighed, "Even though the fight hasn't started yet, I already have a premonition that my shoulders will be very sore next."
"You guy... you're still as lazy as ever..."
Ukitake Jushiro sighed with a wry smile.
That's right, Yamamoto Genryu Sai Shigekuni complained in his heart before, 'The person who has the talent to take over the position of captain is this guy. It is clear that he is fully qualified in terms of strength and other abilities, but on weekdays But he always looked like a mess.
During the exchange, everyone in Soul Society unknowingly spread out in pairs.
The number of two people in a group is just right, so that they can take care of each other during the battle, and prevent too many people from interfering with each other during the battle.
The Arrancars on the opposite side didn't seem to care how their opponents prepared to fight, because they were confident that they would win in the end no matter what, so they did not stop the movements of the Shinigami, and calmly watched these people disperse, and then Each one selects the prey they are interested in as if they are allocating prey.
Soon, in front of everyone in the Soul Society, except for the Broken Bees who had already started fighting, there were enemies who were looking for them.
"Brother...it seems like it's not easy for you too?"
Seeing Stark coming to him with a child-like Arrancar, Kyoraku Shunsui sighed helplessly.
"What?"
On the opposite side, Stark seemed to be unable to understand the meaning of these words.
"I mean...can you put this child aside for a while?" Kyoraku Shunsui pointed at the subordinate officer following Stark, "If she is here, I can't fight with all my strength. I think you should Same thing, right?”….
"What are you talking about!?" Veins popped up on the child-like Poman's face when he heard this. "Are you looking down on me? Bastard Shinigami!? Do you mean that if you fight with all your strength, it will affect me!? You are looking down on me!"
"Hey... don't talk, Lilynite." Stark said helplessly, looking at Kyōraku Shunsui across from him, "It doesn't matter, if you can't use your full strength, then I won't use my full strength either."
"What do you mean by that?" Jutsuro Ukitake asked with a slight frown upon hearing this.
"How should I put it..." Stark scratched his head, looking like he had a headache. "In terms of personality, I'm not the kind of person who takes it very seriously... I think I'll just pretend to fight and wait for the others. Let’s finish it, right?”
"Wha...what!?" Ukitake Jushiro was a little embarrassed and suspected that he heard wrongly.
"I think this is a good suggestion..."
Kyōraku Shunsui on the side laughed and clapped his hands, "I like that very much too... To be honest, I'm quite afraid of pain! If it were normal, the two of us would sit down and have a good chat and maybe we could get along... ...If possible, I would really like to accept your suggestion...but this time, I’m afraid there’s no other way.”
As he spoke, the originally casual expression on Kyoraku Shunsui's face became serious.
"Considering the situation...it's not a good idea for us to do this now, don't you think?"
"Really? It seems to be the same..."
Stark scratched his head and asked himself, then helplessly stretched out his hand to touch the blade at his waist, "It's really troublesome..."
"team leader……"
Rangiku Matsumoto, who was back to back with Toshiro Hitsugaya, called softly.
At this moment, they are surrounded by four Arrancars. Judging from the level of spiritual pressure they feel, they should be a 'Ten Blades' level Arrancar, and the remaining three are her subordinate officers.
"I will take care of these three subordinate officers. Captain, you are responsible for the 'Ten Blades' at the back."
"Can you do it?"
Hitsugaya Toshiro didn't even look back, his eyes alertly paying attention to the 'Ten Blades' in front of him.
"certainly."
A confident voice came from Matsumoto Rangiku's mouth.
"Okay then. I'll leave it to you. At least hold on until I fight on my side.
The fight is over. "
After saying this, Hitsugaya Toshiro's figure disappeared, leaving only an afterimage.
Their side was already at a numerical disadvantage, and this was a situation they had to face. Even if Matsumoto Rangiku said that he couldn't deal with it, he could only find a way to hold on until his side could deal with the enemy before helping.
"Wait! Don't even think about getting close to Lord Harribel!"
When the three subordinate officers saw Hitsugaya Toshiro leaving, they immediately prepared to pursue him.
The reason why they surrounded these two people was of course to kill them together, but they were just a captain and a vice-captain. How could there be any need for Lord Hribel to take action personally?
"Wait!"
However, just as they were about to pursue Hitsugaya Toshiro, they were stopped by Harribel, who was watching from a short distance away.
"You guys deal with that woman."
Harribel's eyes were calmly looking at Hitsugaya Toshiro who was approaching. At the same time, he stretched out his fingers to hook the ring on the sword of the giant blade on his back and slowly pulled it out. scabbard.
Buzz——
This knife looks huge in the scabbard, but after pulling it out, you can see that the middle of the blade is actually hollow. As Harribel moves his fingers, the hollow blade rotates on his slender fingertips, making a sharp and piercing sound. buzzing.
"Leave this person...to me."
As he spoke, Harribel's figure moved.
She could see that although the young man in front of her looked young, he did have captain-level strength. It was impossible for her three subordinate officers to deal with this young man and the woman.
clang--
Dang Dang Dang——
The crisp sound of swords sounded almost simultaneously in the sky above Karakura Town.
The war between Death and Arrancar finally started at this moment. .
Spiny fungus
