Naruto just wants to be a god of death.

Chapter 274 Preparation and Departure

Ukitake Jushiro, who had just taken off his clothes, paused.

Look up at the sky.

"Stop it," he murmured softly.

“Wasn’t that the strange phenomenon caused by the Soul King’s death?” Kyoraku Shunsui narrowed his eyes and looked over, “Was it the turmoil caused by their battle?”

"It's terrible, the whole world is..."

Yamamoto Genryusai didn't say anything. He had lived long enough, but like the young people around him, this was his first time experiencing something like this. He couldn't tell what was going on and what caused the turmoil just now.

"Don't have any expectations." A frivolous voice suddenly sounded among the three people, "The Spirit King is dead."

They look back.

Mayuri
Another clone walked in from outside, looking at Ukitake Jushiro without restraint: "Is this the Soul King fragment in Captain Ukitake's body?"

"Mimihaki?"

"Sure enough, just as I guessed, that famous native god is part of the Spirit King's body."

"But as expected of Captain Ukitake, you chose to use this kind of power without hesitation."

"If you were not suffering from the disease, in the captain's heart, you would be a more qualified successor than Naruto."

Ukitake Jushiro didn't say anything. He just put his clothes back on silently without responding to Kurotsuchi Mayuri's words.

He can say these things.
This means that he has figured out what he should know and what he shouldn’t know.

"You said the Spirit King is dead?" The captain spoke, looking at the clone.

"Yes." Kurotsuchi Mayuri nodded and raised his hand with a somewhat amused expression. "Captain Uzumaki had already foreseen this situation would happen. He even pulled Urahara Kisuke over from the human world just to create a wedge."

He paused and looked at the captain with a smile.

"Captain Uzumaki asked me to tell you something, but I almost forgot because I was so worried about the wedge."

"In order to create a wedge, he captured Tsunayashiro Tokinada of the Tsunayashiro family."

The captain stared at Kurotsuchi Mayuri.

He is not a fool.

With his ability, he could naturally clearly sense the clash of spiritual pressure between the two captain-level Shinigami.

However, he didn't know why Naruto attacked Tsunayashiro Tokinada before, but now it is clear.

It's this guy named Kurotsuchi Mayuri.
Some are too indulgent.

"But if it was the Soul King who died, why did it stop?" Ukitake Jushiro was still looking at the sky. "Naruto's Kaido is very powerful, but he is the Soul King after all. Ordinary techniques are ineffective against him."

"Only Mimihaji-sama."

The reason why he was prepared to sacrifice his own body as soon as he learned of the "Spirit King's death" was to obtain Lord Mimihaji's power to stabilize the Three Realms.

Because he knew very well that only he could do this.

If the honorific name "Mimihaki" is given a literal meaning, it means "splicing the body".

When Ukitake Jushiro was three years old, he suffered from a serious illness that doctors could not cure. In the most desperate situation, his parents sent him to the shrine of "Mimihachi-sama" and offered his diseased "lungs" as a sacrifice in exchange for Mimihachi's power.

The reason why Ukitake Jushiro has not been in good health over the years is because he is missing a part of his body, a lung.

The reason why he can survive without lungs
It is also because of the power of "Mimihaki" to splice the body.

Only "Soul King Fragments" of the same status as "Soul King-sama" can save the world.

“It’s not just the Soul King’s right hand that can do this.” Kurotsuchi Mayuri shook his head, clicked his tongue, and curled his lips. “Captain Uzumaki has a Soul King fragment in his hand that’s more important than your right hand.”

He paused.

"The Heart of the Spirit King."

This reminded others of their past.

The Quincy called "Valkyrie", the Quincy with the power of "resurrection from the dead".
"Is that so?" Ukitake Jushiro asked softly.

Kyoraku Shunsui's face was solemn.

"My main body and Urahara Kisuke are currently conducting experiments." Mayuri shook his head. "Urahara Kisuke is secretly carrying out a plan to replace the Soul King. With a successful precedent, he will be able to figure it out soon."

"He and I are going to ascend to the Spirit King's Palace with the new wedge."

"Captain."

Yamamoto Genryusai said softly: "I have asked Shiba Kūkaku to prepare."

"Souzai from the Second Division, Shunsui Kyoraku from the Eighth Division, and Kaien Shiba from the Fifth Division will be operating with you."

Mayuri Kurotsuchi tilted his head and said, "As expected of the captain-general, you are so well prepared."

He was about to say something else, but suddenly paused. He received new information in his mind and grinned: "Then let's go. We have already completed the preliminary work and are just waiting for the last piece of material."

A few minutes later.

Shiba family.

The captains boarded the Heavenly Chariot Pillar and were sent high into the sky, flying towards the Palace of the Spirit King.

In the palace of the Spirit King.

Naruto swung his sword and slashed the black, sticky spiritual pressure flowing on the ground with a wall of wind.

"It's useless. This is the power of the Soul King." Yhwach absorbed it, his tone seemed to be restraining something, "It's not this casual."

I couldn't finish my words.

The wind wall surged and rushed, and a sharp arrow stabbed at Youhabach.

A sudden blow pierced through his body.

"If we can't solve the transmission problem, then why not solve the final end?" Naruto said calmly, and left in an instant, with Kurama shining brightly. "Let's go, Kurama."

Inner world.

Jiu Lama responded: "Go ahead, give this arrogant guy a good lesson!"

It dislikes Yhwach very much.

Kind of
No, it’s not about being bold, it’s about having an attitude that’s even more superior than Uchiha Madara.

I have always looked down on others. Even those who are stronger than me will never look at me with such contempt.

Annoy people.

The place was covered in golden light, and nine ribbons that looked like tails were fluttering in the wind.

Cut it off with one knife.

Yhwach stretched out his hand, barely raising his sword to meet the attack, and with his other hand pulled out the spiritual arrow that was piercing his chest: "This is not the way of the god of death."

"In a life-and-death fight, do we need to force any method?" Naruto clenched his other hand into a claw, and the wind blew and condensed. A sphere gradually changed from transparent to visible to the naked eye. "As long as it can cause damage to the enemy, it's a good method."

Rasengan!
Of course, it is completely different from the Rasengan as a ninjutsu.

Although the appearance is the same, the core is a highly condensed "vortex".

It crushed and smashed.

Yhwach's face was calm, and a faint blue blood vessel-like spiritual pressure was visible on his neck.

Still Blood Suit!
The power engraved in the blood of the Quincy.

"I have always hated you." The vortex surged, and spirit particles splashed like sparks, but it did not cause any effective damage to Yhwach. "Ever since I started to regain my power, and since I knew there was such a person as you, I have hated you."

"I can't see you."

"Even now, even if the Spirit King is dead."

"My eyes still can't see you."

In the future of Yhwach, there is no world line related to "Uzumaki Naruto".

He saw a lot
He saw that Ishida Uryu was about to rebel and fight against Haschwald - but by this time, Haschwald was already dead.

He saw Kurosaki Ichigo standing in front of him.

I saw Urahara Kisuke, the dark-skinned girl from Shihouin's family, and Ichigo Kurosaki's friends.
Even though many things are completely different from the present.

Even based on the present moment, he saw a lot of things.

But still.
He couldn't see Uzumaki Naruto. "This feeling is disgusting. In my omniscience and omnipotence, there shouldn't be an outlier like you." As Yhwach spoke, he suddenly stretched out his hand and pressed to the left.

As he made this move, an arm condensed by spiritual power stretched out from the sword "Nine Lamas", holding a knife.

It is Kurama's hand, and it is the Zanpakuto called "Kitsune Kagami".

Cut off fiercely and suddenly.

It was just in time to be stopped by Yhwach's predictive hand.

The chains danced, quietly circling behind Yhwach, and stabbed at him.

But the Static Blood Suit on his body expanded outward, condensing into a blue barrier behind him, blocking the chains one by one.

of course
Yhwach can dodge some fatal or extremely damaging moves.

But they are not able to react quickly enough to those minor injuries.

A flash of white lightning struck directly.

Yhwach was a beat slow to dodge, and his ear was cut off mercilessly.

They fought, their spiritual pressure rolled, pushing the onlookers to flee and walk outside the Soul King Palace.

"It's really scary." After dozens of rounds of fighting, Youhabach's body was in a mess. He was not seriously injured, but he had countless minor injuries. "Sure enough, even if I didn't explain it, you would have discovered it."

"I can't see any future related to you. My ability is invalid."

“I can still see myself.”

"You know what?"

"In that brief moment just now, I glimpsed hundreds of possible outcomes of my own death."

"I couldn't see who was killing me."

"The only person who might make me invisible is you."

Naruto's face was calm and he raised his hands: "No wonder."

"I was just saying that you always have that much luck and see more attacks that can kill you."

"but."

"To avoid serious and fatal injuries, but you can't avoid minor injuries."

"If I can't kill you in one go, I'll do it slowly."

He paused.

"Like killing Valkyrie, killing Haschwalth."

"You Quincy's methods of saving your lives are truly unexpected."

Youhabach lowered his head and looked at the wounds on his body: "You seem to have forgotten that omniscience and omnipotence are only part of my abilities. In addition, I have another ability, which is to bestow."

“Giving is not only for others.”

"It could be me."

He raised his hand and pressed it to his chest: "Next, I will give myself a complete body."

As soon as he finished speaking, the numerous minor injuries on his body disappeared immediately.

"Give me healthy Reiatsu."

As soon as these words were spoken, the strength that Yhwach had just consumed was replenished in an instant.

"like this--"

Yhwach raised his lips and said, "Even if my ability is ineffective against you, the rest of my ability will still give me the power to defeat you."

"Give up, Uzumaki Naruto."

"Even if I can hold on, it will only be until my heart runs out of strength."

"No matter how long it takes, I can accompany you."

"But what about the people you care about?"

He tilted his head.

Naruto followed and looked.

During the time he was fighting with Yhwach, the Quincies who could not participate in this battle had already wrapped up Ichigo Kurosaki.

"I care about Kurosaki Ichigo very much," Yhwach continued, "and not only because he is the only one who has the qualifications to kill the Soul King."

"There's another reason."

"Before I say these things, let me thank you very much first."

Naruto narrowed his eyes.

grateful?

"Thank you for killing Haschwalth." Yhwach smiled softly.

Naruto wondered.

I killed the highest-ranking person in the Stern Cross Knights, the master of the holy letter "B", which is second only to "A", and he still wants to thank me?

"I have had the ability to bestow and reclaim since I was born." Yhwach seemed to enjoy talking about these things, and said slowly, "There are very few people like me among Quincies."

"And Haschwald is of the same kind as me, but compared to me, he only has the ability to 'grant.'"

"So at night, I will exchange my power with his."

"That is to say, I will miss a period of time when I am omniscient and omnipotent."

"And you killed him, so I have to keep having this ability."

“So, I glimpsed another future of death.”

"In that future, I saw clearly who was the one who killed me."

"he is the one"

"Kurosaki Ichigo."

"If Haschwalth were still there, and I couldn't see him, he wouldn't necessarily tell me."

"So I really have to thank you, Uzumaki Naruto."

Outside the Lingwang Palace.

"How pitiful, there's only one person left." Barro whispered, "Uzumaki Naruto and His Majesty are still fighting, no one can help you now."

Ishida Uryu pushed his glasses down and said, "Leave him to me."

"When I was in this world, I wanted to kill him, but because of your majesty's order, I spared his life."

"at this time--"

"He has already fulfilled his mission as Your Majesty's tool. Please fulfill my small wish and let me put an end to the story between the two of us."

Ichigo Kurosaki murmured, "Uryū."

There was a brief silence among the Quincies.

"Is it not possible?" Ishida Uryu turned his head and stared at Barrow, the nominally current highest-ranking officer of the Stern Cross Knights. "As the heir..."

"This is His Majesty's order." Barrow interrupted him, "We are not allowed to hold back."

"Attack with all your strength and kill Kurosaki Ichigo."

Ishida Uryu remained silent.

"Let's join forces to bully a guy who is weaker than us." Barrow raised his hand and released a spirit weapon, which was an exaggerated sniper rifle. "But since this is the order of His Majesty."

"Then we must carry out the execution faithfully."

The trigger was pulled decisively.

Aim at Kurosaki Ichigo.

emission!
