A Dimensional Journey Begins with the Dragon Clan

"We just want to ask you..."

Kurosaki Ichigo looked worriedly at Inoue Orihime, who was kneeling on the ground, "Why are you sitting at the door of your house? Chadu said that your Reiatsu is abnormal, so we rushed over immediately. What happened?"

"Are you okay?" Chadu Yasutora also asked worriedly, "Just now your spiritual pressure fluctuated greatly, as if... you were on guard against something."

"Hey?"

Orihime Inoue was slightly taken aback upon hearing this.

She understood that what the other party felt was probably the spiritual pressure fluctuation under the stress response when she felt her heart was pierced just now.

"Is...is it? But nothing happened..."

As if not wanting to worry the two of them, Inoue Orihime explained awkwardly, "I squatted on the ground because of a sudden stomachache just now..."

"Impossible..." Chadu Yasutora frowned slightly, "There must have been other spiritual pressures here until just now, who is that?"

"Who is...friend?"

Orihime Inoue replied subconsciously, "I just met a friend here... After saying goodbye to my friend, my stomach suddenly hurt, that's all... I'm sorry, I made you worry!"

When she finished answering, even she was slightly taken aback.

friend?

That person is... Mr. Tsukishima.

Some strange memories suddenly flashed in my mind.

friend?

Tsukishima-san is a friend?
"If something happens, I will tell you! So, Kurosaki, Chadu, you have to say anything!"

Orihime Inoue explained with a smile, but her heart became heavy.

No, that person... is the prisoner who attacked Ishida.

It’s weird.

Why did I... treat that person as a friend at that moment?

What exactly...was I 'chopped'?
In just a few thoughts, Orihime Inoue noticed something unusual.

It's just that he can't tell Kurosaki Ichigo, who has lost his power, about this kind of thing, otherwise he will hurt the other party.

Send a message to Chadu later...

"Ah... oh."

Under Inoue Orihime's insistence, Kurosaki Ichigo and Chadu Yasutora gave up asking.

After all, they also have something to hide from each other now.

"Then...we're going back."

"Well! See you tomorrow!"

···········
"Hey... what do you think is going on with Inoue?"

On the way back, Kurosaki Ichigo frowned and asked Chadu Yasutora beside him.

"Ah... how should I put it... there shouldn't be any problem, right?" Chadu Yasuko replied thoughtfully, "If she really encountered any danger, that man should be the first one who can't sit still."

He knew why Inoue didn't explain the matter clearly just now, because she didn't know that Kurosaki Ichigo's strength was gradually recovering, and she didn't want to get Ichigo who had lost his strength into trouble because of him.

Since the man hasn't made any moves yet, it means that the problem shouldn't be too big, let's respect the girl's choice for the time being.

"Right……"

Kurosaki Ichigo nodded slightly when he heard the words, "She has denied it like that, so we can only believe her."

"Yes, there must be something wrong with my spiritual pressure perception." Chadu Yasutora also nodded slightly.

Saying that, the two parted at the crossroads, and each walked towards home.

However, Chadu Yasutora did not notice that Kurosaki Ichigo stopped and turned back after he left.

··········
"Continued Cup."

In the bar, Ginjo Kugo pushed the wine glass with only ice cubes in front of Kusawa Kiryu behind the bar.

"No." Tasawa Kiryu resolutely refused.

Ginjo Kugo wondered: "Why?"

Tasawa Kiryu replied flatly: "You drank too much."

Ginjo Kugo curled his lips slightly, with an unhappy expression on his face: "Really, it's a disappointment."

"Are you happy because Ichigo's affairs are going well?" Seeing Kugo Ginjō drinking a lot of alcohol abnormally, Jackie Tristan smiled lightly.

Yincheng Kongwu turned his head and said insincerely: "That's not the case."

As he spoke, he looked at Liluka who seemed a little tired lying on the sofa and shouted, "Hey! Liluka! It's time for you to go home too!"

"..."

"Hey! You guys don't ignore people! Tsk!"

Seeing that the other party did not respond to him at all, Yincheng Kugo smacked his lips slightly, and subconsciously picked up the wine glass again, "Damn it, I forgot that this glass is empty! Kusawa! Have another glass!"

"No." Tasawa Kiryu still flatly refused.

"Kugo!"

Just when Ginjo Kugo was about to continue entanglement, a boy's voice came from the door.

"Eh? Xue Xu, what's the matter?" Ginjo Kugo turned his head a little confused.

"The dedicated line...is ringing."

The boy in a peaked cap called 'Xue Xu' pointed to the desktop landline at the door and said calmly.

"Really..."

Ginjo Kugo got up impatiently and went to pick up the phone, "Hello—who is it?"

"—"

"Understood, I will open the door now."

With that said, he hung up the phone and opened the locked door of the bar.

I saw the panting figure of Kurosaki Ichigo appearing at the door.

"So? Why are you back again?"

"..."

Kurosaki Ichigo panicked and told Ginjo Kugo and the others about the anomaly that happened just now: "Although Inoue and Chadu didn't say anything, something must have happened, I'm worried..."

He didn't tell Yincheng Kongwu and others about Xuanhao, after all, deep down in his heart, he still didn't fully trust these guys.

Moreover, even if something like "the world is over if something happens to Inoue" is told, these guys may not necessarily believe it, right?
"Probably... the same guy who attacked Ishida, right?" After listening to Kurosaki Ichigo's description, Ginjo Kugo analyzed.

"Konggo...that's..." Jackie Tristan who was on the side seemed to realize who it was, and frowned slightly.

"That's right, it should be Tsukishima and the others." Ginjo Kugo affirmed lightly.

Hearing the exchange between the two, Kurosaki Ichigo was slightly taken aback: "Do you really know anything?"

"Tsukishima is a Fullbringer like us." Ginjo Kugo turned his head to look at Kurosaki Ichigo and replied, "He used to be... our companion."

···········
"Ding dong!"

In the middle of the night, the doorbell of 'Eel House' was rang.

"coming--"

Unagi Yumi walked to the door impatiently and opened it, "Who is it? It's so late..."

boom.

"what!"

The opened door seemed to hit something, and there was a scream.

"It hurts! Didn't I tell you that this door opens outwards? So be careful when opening the door! Really, how many years have you lived here, do you still need me to remind you?" Kurosaki Ichigo Holding his nose and complaining in pain.

"Ichigo! You kid still dare to come to me?" After seeing the face of the person who came, Unaiya Yumi reprimanded angrily, "He was absent from work for several days without saying a word! Anyway, let me come in first, if there is something to do Say it inside!"

As she spoke, she stretched out her hand and was about to pull the boy in front of her.

But Kurosaki Ichigo dodged and easily dodged: "No... just here."

"Huh? What's the matter?" Unagi Yumi seemed to have noticed Kurosaki Ichigo's abnormality, and asked with some doubts, "He came and didn't enter the house, what happened?"

"I want to take a vacation for a while..." Kurosaki Ichigo said with some embarrassment.

"Ah? What is a temporary vacation?" Unagi Yumi was immediately unhappy when he heard the words, "Aren't you just taking a temporary vacation now? How much work do you have to delay to be satisfied?"

"..." Kurosaki Ichigo remained silent.

"Are you listening?"

Seeing that Kurosaki Ichigo didn't respond, Unagi Yumi covered his face, feeling helpless for a while.

"I'm sorry..." Kurosaki Ichigo apologized somewhat apologetically, "Then...that's it."

"Huh? You..."

Seeing Kurosaki Ichigo who turned around and was about to leave, Unagi Yumi's expression became serious.

The serious expression on the young man's face seemed that something had really happened, and it was not for no reason that he asked for leave.

She stretched out her hand to pull Kurosaki Ichigo back, and said seriously: "Wait for me! Ichigo! Although... I don't know what happened to you... But you don't have to worry about me, call this kind of thing A phone call is enough and there is no need to come and thank you in person.

I'm not your classmate, I'm an adult!

At my age, I don't need to worry about you brat!So, tell me what happened!
child!You can rely on adults! "

"..."

Hearing this, Kurosaki Ichigo was silent for a moment, feeling inexplicably moved.

That's right, this is the 'world' he wants to protect.

"Thank you...Yumi...Auntie."

"Why did you become so polite all of a sudden?" Unagi Yumi was taken aback for a moment before realizing, "Ah, that's not right! Call me sister!"

···········
"Moon Island..."

After temporarily quitting his job at 'Eel House', Kurosaki Ichigo can finally concentrate on the troublesome things around him.

According to Ginjo Kugo, this guy called 'Tsukishima' was once the leader of XCUTION.

This person once had the same ambition as Ginjo Kugo and others, and worked together to eliminate the power in his body.

To this end, Tsukishima worked out a method to transmit the power to the agent Death God. However, when he finally found the agent Death God...and accepted the power of several companions, he suddenly changed his mind.

He killed the agent Reaper, and also killed the companion who transmitted the power, and took the power as his own, and his whereabouts have been unknown since then.

According to Ginjo Kugo, this man planned it from the beginning.Even from Ginjo Kugo, Kurosaki Ichigo also saw the former proxy Shinigami's "Reaper Proxy Certificate"!
It's a pity that even Ginjo Kugo and the others don't know the real intention of Tsukishima's sudden appearance now.

That was a deep guy, and after what happened that year, Ginjo Kugo and the others never saw this man again.

So they can only judge one thing about Tsukishima at the moment - this guy's purpose is probably to prevent the agent Death from meeting the members of XCUTION.

Yincheng Kongwu also said that the attack on Ishida and the contact with Inoue were all for this purpose, and they wanted to divert his attention from XCUTION.

This made it difficult for Kurosaki Ichigo.

Even if this is really the opponent's purpose, he can only jump into it knowing that it is a trap, after all, he can't let his companion go.

"We must seize the time to regain our strength..."

This is the only thought Kurosaki Ichigo has at the moment.

Without strength, no matter what he faces, he cannot cope.

"!!"

Suddenly, Kurosaki Ichigo, who was thinking, stopped.

At the door of the house, under the dim street lights, he saw his father, Kurosaki Isshin standing there alone.

The other party seemed to be saying something to the void.

He quickly hid at the corner of the intersection.

"Ok?"

Perhaps sensing that someone was coming, Kurosaki turned his head suspiciously.

"what happened?"

In a place that Kurosaki Ichigo couldn't see at this moment, Kisuke Urahara, who had just returned from Soul World and was still in a spirit state, asked doubtfully.

"No, it's nothing." Kurosaki shook his head slightly, "Let's chat in another place."

"Why?" Urahara Kisuke asked knowingly, "Even if he sensed it, he wouldn't be able to see me and know what I'm saying right now?"

That's right, both of them have noticed the arrival of Kurosaki Ichigo, but at this moment, Kurosaki Ichigo has lost the power of the god of death, so he shouldn't be able to see Urahara Kisuke in the spirit state.

So even if the two of them 'conspired' in front of each other, there would be no problem.

But Kurosaki still decided to act cautiously: "Just in case."

"That's it, okay~"

Kisuke Urahara shrugged helplessly, and followed Kurosaki to leave here.

"..."

Kurosaki Ichigo looked hesitantly in the direction where his father's back disappeared.

Too many things happened, he even forgot to dismantle the bomb, and his father is also the god of death.

Do you want to catch up and ask about the situation?

Dad was obviously talking to someone just now, most likely someone from the soul world.

But after thinking about it carefully, Kurosaki Ichigo shook his head slightly and prepared to go home.

It doesn't make any sense to catch up now, just like Urahara Kisuke said.

At this moment, he couldn't even detect the existence of 'Reaper' itself.

At this moment, the idea that he must regain his power as soon as possible became more firm in Kurosaki Ichigo's heart.

Sure enough, without strength, let alone protecting others, nothing can be done.

···········
The next day.

Kurosaki Ichigo, who was supposed to rest for a day or two according to Ginjo Kugo's original plan, was called to the bar again.

Because of Tsukishima Hidekuro's appearance, they had to speed up the progress of the plan.

"Come on! This time you enter this aquarium!" Liluka moved out an aquarium with cartoon bear eyes and mouths, and smiled energetically.

"Ok."

Kurosaki Ichigo nodded without hesitation.

This made Liluka surprised for a while: "Hey? What are you doing, so straightforward? Don't you resist? For example, you are going to enter this strange thing again."

"It's all said and done, I have no objection, let's start quickly." Kurosaki Ichigo said lightly.

"Okay." Liluka seemed to lose interest immediately, "I see. 'Ichigo, I allow you'!"

With the voice falling.

Kurosaki Ichigo with the mark on his body was once again sucked into the aquarium under the blessing of the 'toy house' ability.
