Death: Then stood in the sky.

Chapter 75 She Won't Die, Rangiku

Outside the window, a light rain had started falling, pattering against the windowpane.

Inside the room,

Seeing that Qing Si did not move.

Matsumoto Rangiku slightly rose and pulled her down to lie on the other side, squeezing the sleeping Nel into the corner.

"You're drunk, Rangiku." Seiji reminded her, noticing the faint smell of alcohol on Matsumoto Rangiku.

"I'm not drunk. Don't you always say I can drink a lot and I'm just pretending to be drunk?" Matsumoto Rangiku's voice was sweet and innocent. She was a mature and sophisticated woman, yet she also had a touch of girlish cuteness.

Seeing that Aoji was about to get up, Matsumoto Rangiku grabbed his hand.

Seeing this, Qing Si paused for a moment.

Matsumoto Rangiku's face was completely obscured by her long, flowing hair, so her expression was not visible, but one could clearly sense that she was very uneasy.

It seems that Xu Bai's pure and extreme malice has gone too far.

The evening reassurance was effective, but clearly insufficient.

After thinking for a moment, Aoji helped Rangiku to her feet and then patted his own side.

Matsumoto Rangiku rolled over and leaned against the wall, her nightgown slipping down as she moved.

“You won’t die, Rangiku,” Seiji said, looking at her. “Neither you nor I.”

Rangiku Matsumoto buried her head in her knees and softly hummed in agreement.

Then she heard the man beside her continue, "If I really am going to die, then I will die before you."

In an instant, Matsumoto Rangiku felt her body shudder.

Her eyes, already tinged with the scent of alcohol, softened even more.

She opened her mouth to speak, but before she could, she heard Qing Si complain, "Also, the smell of blood on you is too obvious. Next time you want to pretend to be drunk and trick me, remember not to do it at a time like this."

Bloody smell?

Rangiku Matsumoto was startled, and her blood pressure spiked instantly.

"Go to hell you!"

In a fit of impotent rage and rage, she kicked Aoshi in the face.

In the corner.

Nilu rubbed her eyes and sat up blankly, then her eyes widened.

What happened?

Why is that woman named Matsumoto Rangiku trampling on the green?

Why does Aoji look like he's won something again?

it's wired.

Nilu was puzzled.

......

The next day.

Shiba walked through the corridor, yawning.

"Good morning, Captain Shiba," Zennosuke Kurumatani said politely, holding a stack of files.

"Haha, good morning to you too, Car... Car Copeland, right?" Shiba Isshin scratched his head and laughed.

Zennosuke Kurumatani paused for a moment, veins bulging on his forehead, and roared, "It's Zennosuke Kurumatani!"

After saying that, he turned and left angrily.

It's all that damned Seiji Ukitake's fault!

I gave myself this nickname!

Shiba stared at the other person's back with an embarrassed look. He actually remembered the other person's name, but he just made it up on the spot. But to be honest, it did sound pretty good.

I'll apologize after the car tires have calmed down.

Going up the stairs, Shiba Isshin arrived at Seiji's room, wanting to ask him to join forces with her to deal with the Vasto Lorde.

Knock, knock.

Tap rhythmically a few times with your index finger.

But there was no response from them.

"Is he/she not here?"

Shiba Isshin pressed his ear against the door again, and sure enough, he couldn't hear a single sound from inside.

"Strange, that lazy guy shouldn't get up this early at all." He looked suspicious.

"Who's the lazybones you're referring to?" a sweet voice came from behind.

Shiba answered without hesitation: "Of course it's Ukitake Seiji. That guy's laziness is on par with my vice-captain."

"Then you must have a lot of complaints about your vice-captain."

“It’s not that big of a deal,” Shiba Isshin chimed in, stroking his chin. “It’s just that if she could be a little more polite to me, take on more of my work, and not hit me all the time… wait, that voice!”

Shiba Isshin, who was leaning against the door, jumped back and immediately noticed Matsumoto Rangiku staring at him with a smile. Sweat instantly broke out on his back.

How come this woman walks without making a sound!

"Rangiku, let me explain, I..."

The sound suddenly stopped.

Shiba Isshin stared wide-eyed, as if he had seen something horrifying, at Ukitake Seiji, who was still yawning as he walked out of Matsumoto Rangiku's room.

From...from Matsumoto Rangiku's room?

And... in the morning?

What about last night?

Shiba Ichishin stood there, at a loss for words: "You two..."

Aoshi immediately understood what he wanted to ask and casually replied, "That's not true."

So Zhibo was filled with hope again.

Thankfully, there are still people to keep me company while I'm all alone.

However, in the next instant...

Under Shiba Isshin's gaze, Matsumoto Rangiku snuggled up to Seiji coquettishly and said with a grin, "How about we go shopping for clothes and see a movie together today?"

"But I still have to patrol."

"Let the captain handle that kind of thing; he has nothing else to do anyway."

"That's not a good idea."

"What's wrong with that? Look, the captain isn't saying a word. After the movie, let's go get some drinks. I know a place that has amazing food! We can also go pray for some light while we're at it."

"Hiss... Is this some kind of legitimate blessing?"

The two figures walked further and further away.

Shiba Isshin: "..."

I'm not going to say anything?

Haha, did you two even ask me what I meant?

Hahahaha, I'm going to buy several kilograms of rat poison tonight and kill you two!

......

Empty Town.

On a high-rise building, two figures stood, looking down at the city below.

"Could that Hollow have left?"

Several more days passed.

The Hollow seemed to have vanished completely, not only failing to hunt but also disappearing from the Grim Reaper's sight.

Neither surveillance nor machines used to capture spiritual pressure fluctuations detected any trace of the other party.

All signs indicate that the other party has most likely left the real world and returned to Hueco Mundo.

This is the conclusion from the Twelfth Division.

Aoshi shook his head. "He didn't leave; instead, he's about to launch another attack."

Matsumoto Rangiku looked over in surprise.

Aoshi explained, "How long do you think a hungry person can endure this kind of torment?"

The Hollow is a mindless monster, driven entirely by instinct, and it cannot endure hunger.

Once he feels hungry, he will immediately begin the next hunt.

Therefore, the less likely it is to appear, the closer it is to the next attack from the Void White.

That's all.

Aoshi jumped up and onto the rooftop eaves. The wind howled, making the black shihaka armor clang loudly.

Matsumoto Rangiku followed, her slender waist straight, her full and exquisite figure completely displayed as her shihachi uniform clung to her body in the strong wind.

Dark clouds began to gather, and the clouds reached their peak.

It is going to rain.

Aoshi calmly gazed at the city.

"Ok?"

Suddenly, Aoji looked in a certain direction and noticed something unusual.

Matsumoto Rangiku asked with concern, "What's wrong?"

Aoji said softly, "Although the fluctuation of spiritual pressure was very weak and was only covered up in an instant, I still sensed it."

"Is it that Hollow?" Matsumoto Rangiku clenched her hands nervously.

Upon hearing this, Qing Si shook his head and said expressionlessly:

"Do not."

“It is Nekoali.”

Matsumoto Rangiku: "???"

Chapter 76 I'll take care of you without even a moment's hesitation.

"Jotaro, watch out behind you!"

"Hey, I saw it! This idiot tried to ambush me! Watch my Spirit Finger Strike!"

"Don't be too careless. There are too many enemies. If you get entangled, you might really die."

"Don't underestimate me, Sanada! Eat my Spirit Star!"

Amidst the dark clouds in the sky, a strong man rode atop a Void, the spiritual particles dancing in his palm transforming into bursts of fire.

The Great Hollow roared to the sky, but was roared back by an even louder sound. The pure destructive fist, wrapped in berserk spiritual particles, slammed into the Great Hollow's face with an all-piercing stance.

Then came a barrage of heavy punches, like a torrential downpour.

"Yura Yura!"
