“Agreed.” Pesser and Dondchaka nodded, and the two of them, along with Nel and a certain “girl,” followed Urahara Kisuke to a new location.

Later, Fang Rui and Yoruichi Shihouin started fighting. Neither of them used any force other than their usual fighting style, nor did they use much strength; they were simply comparing their skills...

Chapter 424 The Way to Determine the Victory

"...What a formidable fellow."

After another collision, Fang Rui and Yoruichi Shihouin separated, each keeping a distance from the other, staring at each other from dozens of meters apart. Fang Rui's previous performance made Yoruichi Shihouin feel deeply moved.

The moment you use a technique, he can learn it in the next second. His learning ability is ridiculously strong, which is very discouraging.

The White Strike style has very few attack patterns. Its main attack method is to combine spiritual energy bursts with fighting techniques. For example, a simple straight punch, when combined with spiritual energy burst techniques, can easily penetrate a steel plate.

In the brief exchange, Fang Rui had already learned all the techniques that Yoruichi Shihouin had used.

What am I here for?

'Teaching newbies basic fighting and instant step techniques? The job seems to be almost done~'

Yoruichi Shihouin looked momentarily dazed, but Fang Rui didn't take the opportunity to attack, after all, it was a friendly exchange.

After the fight ended, Fang Rui recalled the skills he had learned. To be honest, the skills were a little difficult, but not very difficult. They were at a level that ordinary people could get started with, but to master them required a bit of talent.

"Shall we continue?" Fang Rui asked.

'Continue? I'm almost completely drained!'

Thinking to herself, Yoruichi Shihouin slowly shook her head: "Take a break. There's no need to rush your studies. You need to balance work and rest."

As she spoke, Yoruichi Shihouin turned and walked towards a certain spot: "Speaking of which, do you drink, young man?"

"I drink it, but I don't really like it," Fang Rui answered truthfully.

Although he brews wine, it doesn't mean he enjoys drinking it.

"Hmm." Upon hearing this, Yoruichi Shihouin nodded slightly, and the two arrived at their resting place.

The furnishings were still tatami mats and a coffee table. Several people sat around the coffee table, drinking and eating snacks.

"How's the intelligence gathering going?" Yoruichi Shihouin asked Kisuke Urahara, looking at the ordinary notebook.

“I’ve gained something. Although it hasn’t increased my chances of defeating Aizen, it will make dealing with Aizen’s subordinates a bit easier,” Kisuke Urahara explained.

"Since you want to increase your chances of victory, why not just cause trouble for your target? Weaken their strength."

Fang Rui found it hard to understand. Since Aizen was already confirmed as the enemy, why wait for him to grow stronger? Of course, they should eliminate him while he was still weak...

“No.” Kisuke Urahara slowly shook his head. He had had similar thoughts before, but unfortunately, there was no possibility of them coming true.

The main issue was that he couldn't be sure who hadn't seen Aizen's Zanpakuto Shikai, since that guy frequently demonstrated his Shikai to talented individuals and those with formidable strength...

Moreover, Aizen is very strong; without sufficient strength, it would be impossible for him to cause any trouble.

"Ok?"

Thinking of this, Kisuke Urahara froze, glancing at Fang Rui's location. The right person... wasn't he right here?

They are very powerful, have never seen a mirage, and are complete strangers.

The only problems are how to get close to Aizen, how to create trouble, and how to persuade Fang Rui to help.

"I need your help with something."

Instead of letting your imagination run wild, it's better to directly ask Fang Rui for his opinion: "What price needs to be paid?"

"Well, I already owe you a favor because I've been learning from you."

After thinking for a moment, Fang Rui replied, "Give me some props! They have to be interesting. As a researcher, you must have many interesting inventions, right?"

"Interesting props? There are definitely a lot..."

He used to study all sorts of things, creating many items, some successful and some not. Although he didn't take them with him when he left Soul Society, he remembered how to make them...

"Then...it's settled~"

"I'll do things for you, and you'll pay me with props."

"Oh, by the way, write down the information for all the items so I can choose more..."

Upon hearing this, Kisuke Urahara grinned. Even with his excellent memory, it was impossible for him to remember all the items he had researched.

"I try my best……"

As he spoke, he leaned closer to Yoruichi Shihouin and asked in a low voice, "My belongings from back then shouldn't have been destroyed, right?"

"There shouldn't be any. Personal belongings should be sealed up, and research records will be kept at the Technology Development Bureau."

After a pause, Yoruichi Shihouin said, "The premise is that no one breaks the rules. If someone dislikes you, it is quite possible that they will destroy the things you leave behind."

"Hate me..." Upon hearing this, Kisuke Urahara lowered the brim of his hat and muttered to himself, "I feel like there are a lot of them."

"When you take Fang Rui to Soul Society, how about you steal the records for me?"

He didn't intend to retrieve the old props, but getting the experiment records back would save him some effort and ensure that nothing was missing from the list.

“…Okay.” Yoruichi Shihouin tilted her head and thought for a moment. She did not refuse Kisuke Urahara’s request. She could take care of some things at the same time, such as visiting some people.

“I have no objection, but can we depart after I learn Bankai?” Fang Rui asked.

"Of course, no problem. However, it must be after learning Bankai, since Seireitei is very dangerous..."

There are many captains among them.

If you rush in without mastering Bankai, you're bound to get caught sooner or later.

As for escaping, well, that depends on luck.

"Speaking of which, you haven't created the Divine Transformation Body yet? That's a bit inefficient!"

"Calm down, we need to focus on quality and quantity!" At this point, Kisuke Urahara changed the subject, "I'll say it again, using the Transcendental Body is very dangerous. You need to defeat the will of the Zanpakuto or pass the test of the Zanpakuto."

"I know." Fang Rui nodded slightly.

Speaking of which, what would happen if someone who doesn't know the name of their Zanpakuto awakened its will?

Just an ordinary person, like everyone else.

Or perhaps an even more difficult trial?

"I'm very curious!" Fang Rui said in a low voice, attracting everyone's attention, and they all asked what he was curious about.

However, Fang Rui ignored them and changed the subject, "Urahara Kisuke, I remember you once successfully made a Hogyoku, could you take it out and use it?"

"The Hogyoku?" Kisuke Urahara frowned, pondered for a moment, and then guessed what Fang Rui meant from the way he looked at the "girl".

After all, the name Hogyoku was uttered by Aizen. How Urahara Kisuke named it is unknown. By the time Aizen took action, the name Hogyoku had already spread.

There's no need to tell everyone about a name; you'll get beaten up for it.

"You want her to become an Arrancar?"

“That’s right, Arrancars are better looking than Hollows.” Fang Rui nodded immediately and said, “The higher the degree of Arrancar, the less bone remains, the better the physique, and the prettier the face.”

Listening to Fang Rui's opinion, Kisuke Urahara tilted his head, as if to ask, "Why do I feel like there's something wrong with this?"

'Is this alright?' Kisuke Urahara's gaze shifted to a certain 'girl,' conveying his message.

“Great!” The “girl” understood Urahara Kisuke’s expression and nodded vigorously. Her ferocious bone surface seemed to reveal a serious and earnest temperament, even though there was no change in her bone surface.

For women, having a beautiful figure and a delicate face is an irresistible temptation.

'Eh—' Kisuke Urahara's lips twitched slightly. Although he could guess the reason, but...

I don't quite understand!

How did Hueco Mundo, a place rife with a survival-of-the-fittest atmosphere, manage to raise a unique species that doesn't care about strength?

"Tch!" Yoruichi Shihouin, who had guessed the reason a little earlier, curled her lip slightly and muttered "Men!" in her mind. Then she looked down at her own figure and nodded in satisfaction.

To be fair, a well-trained physique is indeed fantastic.

Pei Xue and Dongdechaka were somewhat puzzled. Shouldn't the most important thing be strength?

"I'll try my best..." Kisuke Urahara didn't make any promises. After all, as an Arrancar, the Hogyoku could guide him, but it couldn't completely control him. It was more like half guidance and half free play.

"Don't worry, I'll help you out." Fang Rui patted his chest, full of confidence.

'Support?' Kisuke Urahara's eyes showed doubt again. Isn't your ability to gather information?

So, are there other ways to use it?

Silently remembering it in his heart, Kisuke Urahara said nothing, left the training space, and went to the shop on the ground to retrieve the sealed Hogyoku.

"Get ready," Fang Rui instructed the "girl," then looked at Yoruichi Shihouin.

"I heard you can turn into a cat, can you teach me?"

"The ability to acquire information is really useful." Yoruichi Shihouin muttered under her breath, then explained, "If you want to learn, I can teach you."

"The technique to turn into a cat is actually a secret technique of the Shihōin family. Most noble families with some reputation have some secret techniques, and the Shihōin family is in charge of covert operations. The secret techniques they have are related to infiltration and assassination."

After pausing for a moment to allow Fang Rui to process the information, he continued, "Are you planning to study before going to Soul Society, or after you return?"

"Of course, we should learn first. The more skills we learn, the higher the success rate of our schemes will be."

"Once her matter is settled, you can start teaching me."

Upon hearing this, Yoruichi Shihouin did not refuse. With Fang Rui's learning ability, he could quickly master the skill without delaying things.

"I'm back~" Kisuke Urahara said in his usual irreverent tone, "Come on! Arrancar transformation..."

"To be honest, this is my first time performing Arrancar transformation on a Hollow... I'm a little nervous."

Everyone else: "………… Can you be a little more reliable? Kisuke Urahara!"

"I can guess the relevant steps, there shouldn't be any problems." Seeing the subtle expressions on everyone's faces, Kisuke Urahara added a sentence to bolster their confidence.

However, after these words were spoken, the expressions of the crowd became even more subtle.

Listen to your wording; it's too vague!

"Hmm..." After frowning and pondering for a moment, the "girl" spoke up, "Can you guarantee the success rate of breaking the mask?"

As far as she knew, the two places that could allow her to break through were Hueco Mundo and this place.

The former has been ruled out; it is a hostile force.
