Bleach: The Captain of the Fifth Division Becomes Stronger Through Training.

Chapter 261 Chapter 260: The person you are looking for
The voice of Inoue Orihime? !

Ichigo Kurosaki turned around suddenly and saw Yasutora Chadtai being knocked away.

A figure covered in snow-white armor stood beside him, with a short tail and blue hair... It was Grimmjow who had just been blasted away by a Crescent Moon Shot.

It met Ichigo Kurosaki's gaze.

His ferocious, wild face twisted slightly, revealing an extremely impatient expression.

Before the action began, in addition to the instructions from Aizen Sosuke.

Several of the Espada also received a second request from Arima Shizuya.

"If you can't bring Ichigo Kurosaki, then bring another girl named Inoue Orihime."

Although he didn't understand the other party's intentions, his identity as the King of Hueco Mundo could never be ignored.

Grimmjow, who had turned back from a distance and returned to his original form, also seized this not-so-difficult-to-capture 'opportunity' at this moment.

The target person is obtained.

But it didn't make him happy.

After all, the Leopard King's character absolutely disdains to do any despicable behavior. He prefers fist-to-flesh fighting and grappling.

It is definitely not this kind of meaningless abuse of the weak.

But at this moment, because of the order, he has to do something he is unwilling to do.

That's really...

“It’s frustrating.”

Murmuring softly, Rokuba, who was wearing azure eyeshadow, suddenly stretched out his hand...

He grabbed Inoue Orihime who was beside him.

He accurately grabbed the opponent's neck, causing the opponent's eyes to widen slightly almost instantly.

The five fingers were slightly closed, bringing a strong feeling of suffocation, while blocking Inoue Orihime's screams, which were all swallowed back into the stomach.

Trembling.

There was no other course of action that could be conceived except begging for mercy.

What can a high school girl do at a time like this?

I'm scared, I don't want to die like this...

Like the struggle of a drowning man.

There was a thin mist on Orihime Inoue's eyes, her mouth was slightly open, and her hands reached up, weakly grasping Grimmjow's arms.

help me.

Kurosaki...

A silent whisper, a cry for help without any outline.

But it was like a flying arrow that crossed the shackles of space and hit Ichigo Kurosaki's chest accurately.

As if something invisible collapsed in an instant, Kurosaki Ichigo's eyes widened slightly as if by reflex.

Shout out that name.

"Inoue!!!"

Even Unohana Retsu was unable to respond in time. The sudden burst of spiritual pressure was like gunpowder ignited by a firing pin.

It burst out violently inside Ichigo Kurosaki's body!
bump! ! !
A violent roar suddenly arose, originating from the boiling spiritual energy in Ichigo Kurosaki's body, and also the sound of the air being compressed, collapsed, and collapsed!
In an instant, he mobilized all his strength and at the same time rushed forward, Ichigo Kurosaki had completed the entire process of releasing his Zanpakutō.

Sky lock cuts the moon!

The black and red light drew an eye-catching arc in the air, and the orange-haired boy roared and rushed forward, like a meteor breaking through the sky.

The spiritual pressure that was enough to attract everyone's attention instantly became the focus of the entire audience at this moment.

Tiansuo Zhan Yue, who is known for his speed, would naturally not "let down" at a time like this.

But unfortunately, given that the other party is already prepared... this is ultimately just a fearless act.

"Thunder Spear."

Under the cold and soulless hum.

A bolt of lightning roared down from the sky and hit Ichigo Kurosaki squarely.

With his right hand still in the throwing posture, Ulquiorra, who had freed his sword, was as calm as a sniper on the high ground.

"Hey, hey, hey, this won't do..."

Kyoraku Shunsui frowned and glanced behind him with some worry.

Being hit by a spiritual energy mass of that magnitude would be very uncomfortable even for a captain-level character.

He should have been able to dodge it, right? The boy who was the agent of the god of death.

Are you okay?
"Gu..."

The smoke and dust dissipated, revealing the disheveled Kurosaki Ichigo inside.

The charged attack in the Returning Blade state didn't knock him unconscious directly, but there was not a single piece of good flesh left on his body.

Half of the Death Tyrant Suit was invaded and shattered by external force.

Although the man was still able to stand in mid-air, his heavy breathing showed that he was seriously injured.

"Oh..."

Ulquiorra let out a rare groan of emotion.

There was no sign of sadness or joy on his face, and he spoke in a slightly subtle tone.

"Being able to withstand the power of the Thunder Lance head-on, a body of this strength is rare even among the Espada."

The others did not comment, but Grimmjow continued to dodge with a light gesture.

"Stop this guy!"

Kyoraku Shunsui's instructions were clear.

The rest of the people also responded one after another. Whether it was Kenpachi Zaraki's attack or Byakuya Kuchiki's sea of ​​flowers, they all swept towards Grimmjow's back.

But the effect is ultimately unsatisfactory.

Without being able to further stimulate and release his Zanpakutō, the Leopard King, who was known for his speed, easily broke through the encirclement.

However, will things go so smoothly?
The Broken Bee hiding in the blind spot stepped on the air and emerged quietly like a ghost.

The stinger in his hand stretched straight out, and the target at this moment was... the heart area behind Grimmjow.

"I won't let you succeed like this."

Harribel was the first to arrive and intercepted the attack, blocking it with the long blade in her hand.

"Tsk..."

Soi Feng's brows furrowed visibly.

After a brief fight between the two sides, they separated tacitly and returned to each other's ranks.

If you can't defeat the opponent quickly in a short period of time, there is no point in continuing to fight.

not to mention……

The Arrancar's goal has also been achieved.

"I brought this woman here."

With an impatient tone, Grimmjow threw Orihime Inoue directly into the sky formed by the condensed spiritual power.

There was a dull thud and his shoulder hit the ground first.

The intense pain that came back made Inoue Orihime close her eyes involuntarily.

But she couldn't continue shouting... because she had already seen the miserable state of Kurosaki Ichigo.

If you continue to ask for help.

Kurosaki-kun will definitely come up to save me.

But this won't work...Rather than watching him become covered in bruises, Inoue Orihime would rather choose to bear the pain herself.

No matter what happened, you can never make that sound again.

The decision has been made in my heart.

However, reality is always unexpected.

A pair of feet landed directly in front of Inoue Orihime, accompanied by a long, sharp voice.

Inoue Orihime's hair was tightly tangled up.

Nnoitra's head came closer, and the half-blind-covered face did not show any kindness at all, but instead an extremely aggressive scrutiny.

"It's a woman." He narrowed his eyes slightly, and half of his scarlet tongue squeezed out from between his lips.

"I don't know how it tastes..."

After murmured softly as if talking to himself, he leaned his head forward slightly, as if sniffing the bloody smell of the other person's wound.

"...!"

My heartbeat seemed to stop for a moment.

Like a frightened rabbit, Inoue Orihime's pupils shrank violently at this moment.

The feeling of fear surged like a tide, engulfing her heart in an instant.

For a moment, Inoue Orihime realized the naivety of her own thoughts—these people seemed to be far more terrifying than she had expected.

"That's enough, Nnoitra."

It was another unusually cold tone. Turning around, he saw Ulquiorra, who had released his Return to Blade state, staring over here.

He sheathed his long blade and walked slowly forward.

His posture was as calm as his heart, without any ripples.

"I have no interest in lecturing you on your words and actions, but this woman is the target that Lord Arima has specifically named to be taken away."

He stood in front of Noitra, put his hands in his waist pockets, and spoke condescendingly.

"I have to complete my mission, therefore..."

"Let go of your hands."

There was a brief silence, and Nnoitra let go of his right hand.

"Heh, I don't know what kind of magic potion that Arima Shizuka has fed you... You're so concerned about being a running dog."

Very offensive statement.

But Ulquiorra didn't react at all.

He never seemed to care about other people's comments about him - at this moment he was just staring at the woman in front of him, and no one knew what he felt.

Inoue Orihime fell heavily to the ground. In the dim light, she could only see another man walking towards her.

Then... he used his right hand to lightly tap the air beside him.

Accompanied by a dull and strange tearing sound, a moment later, a deformed and twisted crack suddenly appeared next to Inoue Orihime.

Unravel the emptiness.

A skill exclusive to the Espada, a unique technique used to easily travel between the real world and Hueco Mundo.

"Let's go. It looks like the next task will be difficult to complete."

Efficiency first, mission first.

Although the person leading the team this time is Harribel, who is nominally No. 3.

But after spending all this time together, he does not have any feelings of his own. At the same time, Wu Laosi, who regards the two kings of Hueco Mundo as supreme beings, is the leader in the literal sense.

Nnoitra and Harribel approached in silence.

The Gotei 13, who saw all of this, couldn't help but look much more solemn.

Unexpected development.

Kyoraku Shunsui stared at the other side.

"Captain Nirvana, is this so easy to do?"

It had taken a long time for them to get here from Soul Society...but the other party seemed to be as relaxed as going to the toilet.

Is it that exaggerated?
Kurotsuchi Mayuri, who originally had a smiling face, was no longer happy now.

Without answering immediately, he turned to the side and stared at Nie Yin Meng.

The latter understood and took out a rather complicated instrument. After observing it for a moment, he spoke at the fastest speed.

"There is no problem with the stability of the space... Lord Nirvana, the opponent's skills should be completely different from our system."

Kurotsuchi Mayuri tilted his head in silence, then looked at the others.

There was no other expression on his face.

"That's really nothing we can do. After all, it was an unexpected development... Well, at least it can be used as a lesson for next time."

Not dwelling on current failures is also a way to learn from experience and lessons.

That being said.

Byakuya Kuchiki and Kenpachi Zaraki have not stopped attacking either.

One of these two men attacked with hatred, while the other one fought for pleasure. At this moment, he was the type who didn't care about the situation at all.

The completely expanded Ya Mi was facing an enemy, and at this moment, he seemed to have a sense of "ease".

"Hahahaha, you are really weak!"

"If the other Shinigami are no better than you, then Soul Society will sooner or later become mine."

"Just clean your neck and prepare to die!"

He laughed wildly and twisted his body, using his tremendous force to push the two people in front of him away.

He took away his Guiren, and returned to his original form, Yami, in high spirits, and returned to the team.

With a smile on his face, it seems as if everything is under his control.

Grimmjow, who was not far away, could clearly see that he was unhappy, but at this moment he had no room to vent his anger.

He could only frown and clench his teeth in anger like a cat in anger.

"Tsk..."

I have endless sexual desire and nowhere to vent it.

He could only turn his head and look into the distance at this moment - the hateful guy who suddenly attacked and swept him away.

"Hey, that Grim Reaper!"

As he shouted, Ichigo Kurosaki, who was being helped by Unohana Retsu to stand firmly on his feet, glanced sideways.

"If you want to save this woman, come to Hueco Mundo as soon as possible!"

Grimmjow released his Return to Blade and shouted with an unhappy look on his face.

"Come find me when the time comes! I am No. 6 among the Espada... Grimmjow Jagajek!"

It is clear.

The resentment that was chopped away by Brother Strawberry's knife almost turned into reality at this moment.

Although he heard this, Ichigo Kurosaki's focus was not on this... He was not interested in the Espada.

I just want to rescue my friends.

"Wait, give Inoue back to me!"

All he got in response was Ulquiorra's cold gaze.

Since there is no possibility of completing the task, the observation naturally loses its value.

Although his strength is somewhat worrying, but... that's all.

"next time."

Ulquiorra, who had already stepped into chaos, suddenly spoke.

He turned half sideways, his expression with light green tear marks remained unchanged, but his tone was extremely firm.

"If there is a next time, I will definitely catch you."

goo...

As the Arrancar left, the torn space healed like a wound.

At the reattached border, no traces of anything could be seen anymore...

Ichigo Kurosaki shook off Unohana Retsu's support, gritted his teeth and rushed forward, but could no longer find any trace.

……

the other side.

Under the Xuye Palace.

The returning Espada fell to their knees.

"We brought back the person you wanted."
