Darkness, like endless thick ink smeared on the sky, began to cover the land.
In the city, the incandescent street lights have also begun to perform their own responsibilities and embellish the entire city.
Suddenly, in the hazy night, a child's voice came.
"Yes, mom is not feeling well right now and looks very painful!"
"Hmm... um... I know, Dad!"
As the reminders kept coming from the other end of the phone, Kurosaki Ichigo, who made the call here, also nodded in response.
After the last warning and his father Kurosaki's promise to come immediately, the phone was finally hung up.
After exiting the phone booth, Ichigo Kurosaki hurriedly ran to where his mother, Masaki Kurosaki, was.
At this moment, Kurosaki Masaki has passed through the initial pain. Although he is still a little weak, he has more or less escaped from the dangerous situation.
"Mom, I've told dad, he will pick us up soon!" the little boy Kurosaki Ichigo said as if he was about to cry.
"Well, mom is fine!" Kurosaki Masaki, who was lying on the ground, comforted softly, and then wiped the corners of Kurosaki Ichigo's eyes, "Ichigo is a man, so you can't cry at this time!"
Wiping the tears from the corners of his eyes, Kurosaki Ichigo puffed up his small chest: "Yeah, Ichigo is already a man, and men don't cry!"
"Mom, don't worry, Ichigo will protect you!" As if remembering the teachings of his father Isshin Kurosaki, the little Ichigo Kurosaki is also ready to implement the belief in his name.
I will definitely protect my mother!
Kurosaki Ichigo, who was inspired to fight, clenched his young fists and looked around cautiously.
However, at this casual glance, he really saw a petite figure.
It was a little girl in red clothes, walking towards them dimly.
"Who are you? Are you lost here?" Kurosaki Ichigo, who mustered up his courage, shouted to the hazy figure.
However, the figure that looked like a little girl in red did not respond to him. Instead, she kept approaching and approaching them.
Just as this figure was getting closer and closer, Kurosaki Masaki, who was sitting slumped behind Ichigo, had a slight movement in the corner of his eyes.
Even though he has lost the power of the Quincy, even though he is at his weakest now, the experience and vision of the past have not been lost.
"Hey, why don't you speak? Are you scared?"
Seeing that the little girl in red was approaching him, Kurosaki Ichigo couldn't help but want to step forward to ask, but Kurosaki Masaki grabbed his arm.
Kurosaki Ichigo, who looked confused, turned around and looked at his mother, Kurosaki Masaki, with a puzzled expression.
"Don't go there, there's something wrong with this girl!" Masaki Kurosaki shook her head solemnly, and her arm holding onto Ichigo Kurosaki became harder and harder, as if she was worried about something.
Looking at his extremely nervous mother, Kurosaki Ichigo became more and more puzzled. He was obviously just a child younger than him, why did his mother show such an expression?
"Eh? Have you been discovered?"
Suddenly, a deep and cold voice sounded, coming from behind the little girl in red.
This moment attracted the attention of the mother and son, Ichigo Kurosaki, and Masaki Kurosaki. They looked at the huge figure gradually revealed behind the little girl in red, and they suddenly looked panicked.
"It is indeed... Hollow!" Kurosaki Masaki said to himself in shock.
If you encounter a Hollow of this level normally, it will be extremely difficult for the Hollow to have a chance to escape.
But now, it was when she was at her weakest. Not to mention this obviously extremely powerful giant Hollow, even an ordinary Hollow, she was unable to resist.
"It's really delicious food, and there are two of them at once!" The giant mouse-like Hollow, codenamed Grand Fisher, said as he licked his lips.
Grand Fisher, which means big fishing boat in Chinese, is the nickname given by this mouse to himself, implying that he is a powerful fisherman.
And those humans with high-density spiritual pressure, or the Shinigami stationed in the present world, are all the fish that are about to be captured by him.
Its own abilities are extremely special, and it is good at stealth and trapping. It has been constantly fighting off the God of Death for 40 years. It is a difficult opponent and has therefore been listed as a target to be chased by the Soul Society.
"What... what kind of monster is this?" Kurosaki Ichigo said in fear when he saw the hollow form for the first time.
But it was obvious that neither Masaki Kurosaki nor the giant Hollow had any intention of answering him.
"Okay, which one should we start with?" Moving his huge paws, Grand Fisher came with unabashed pressure this time.
"I won't let you hurt mom!" Kurosaki Ichigo, who woke up from the trembling, broke away from his mother's restraints and stood tremblingly at the front.
"Ichigo!" Kurosaki Masaki, who felt his palm loosen, shouted hurriedly.
"Since you, little brat, want to die first, then I will help you!" The giant rat Grand Fisher said cruelly.
After he finished speaking, a tail as fast as a sharp arrow struck at extremely high speed, and it looked like it was planning to pierce Kurosaki Ichigo directly through his heart.
At the critical moment, Masaki Kurosaki, who was originally paralyzed on the ground, got the strength from nowhere and directly pulled the bewildered Ichigo Kurosaki, while he turned his back to protect him.
Bah...
Bada...
A drop of blood dripped, but it was not from Kurosaki Ichigo, but from his mother Kurosaki Masaki.
"Mom!" Ichigo Kurosaki cried as he looked at the bloody hole on his mother Kurosaki Masaki's right shoulder.
"Oh? He actually dodged it!"
Shaking off the bright red blood on its tail, the giant rat Xu showed a mocking smile.
Although the attack just now failed, the two people in front of them were already lambs waiting to be slaughtered.
The so-called hunting, of course, is that the more the prey resists, the more interesting the process will be, and the more excited the hunter will be.
"Ichigo, you go find dad first. Mom stays here to block this monster for the time being!"
Masaki Kurosaki ignored his injuries and pushed Ichigo Kurosaki to run forward, while he planned to stay and stop this giant Hollow.
"Mom, I won't leave, I will stay to protect you!" The stubborn Kurosaki Ichigo wiped the tears from his eyes again and said firmly.
"Ichigo, if you stay here, your mother will be distracted!" Masaki Kurosaki looked at such a sensible son, and couldn't help but feel warm in his heart, but he still said decisively.
"The Sword Comes"
Although the spiritual pressure in her body has been emptied, she can still buy time for Kurosaki Ichigo to escape despite her desperate efforts.
"Haha, if you ask me, you can all stay. After all, I can't get enough to eat only one of you!" the giant rat Grand Fisher said tyrannically.
After saying that, he no longer hesitated, and a pair of huge sharp claws roared towards Kurosaki Masaki and his son from both sides.
