Chapter 436 Orihime Inoue's Subtle Supernatural Ability

boom--!

With a series of crackling sounds, all the members of the 11th Division began to repair their barracks and training grounds.

Unfortunately, there's been too much damage lately, and the captain of the 10th Division, Toshiro Hitsugaya, has refused to repair the 11th Division's facilities.

Well, the reason why Toshiro is so busy is because Aizen's betrayal caused heavy losses to the Soul Society, and everything needs repair and restoration.

At this time, your 11th Division is causing trouble again, destroying your own barracks twice a day without fail. The training ground is not just destroyed, but turned into a huge crater.

Although the Grim Reapers do not need building materials to repair buildings, they only need to collect spiritual particles from the air and then solidify them into materials, the amount of spiritual particles that need to be extracted from such a large pit is enormous.

Each time they filled that huge pit, the members of the 10th Division were so exhausted that they vomited blood.

After ten such incidents, an enraged Captain Hitsugaya stormed into the 11th Division's barracks, pointed at Kenpachi Zaraki, and launched into a tirade of abuse. He then firmly declared, "The 10th Division will no longer build barracks for your 11th Division! Absolutely not!"

So now that their house is smashed up, a bunch of brutes have no choice but to take matters into their own hands.

You know what, these combat fanatics are actually quite good at infrastructure construction. Although their work is rough and lacks any aesthetic details, their speed in repairing buildings is amazing, and the sturdiness is acceptable.

Madarame Ikkaku complained, "Can't the captain and Xia Zuo go out and fight? Every day it's the two of them who get into a fight and turn the training ground into a deep pit."

Ayakawa Yumichika sneered, "You still have the nerve to talk? Have you forgotten what you're like after your Bankai?"

He proudly patted his chest: "Hmph, in any duel I participate in, I will absolutely not destroy my own team's barracks."

Madarame Ikkaku chuckled, "Actually, you want to too, right? Right?"

"But you can't do it, lol."

boom!

Madarame Ikkaku knocked down another barracks, and was then subjected to a mixed doubles beating by the captain and vice-captain. The pink-haired vice-captain's laughter was as melodious as a silver bell.

More of the 11th Division's barracks collapsed.

Why do Natsume and Madarame Ikkaku refuse to leave the 11th Division? Because their eccentric and eccentric atmosphere is captivating.

The Shazo in the Bleach world is not a madman like the Shazo in the DC universe, but he simply enjoys this relaxed and carefree environment.

After a while, the captain sent someone to summon Kenpachi Zaraki away for a meeting.

But this time, Kenpachi Zaraki returned quickly. He gathered his crew, beaming, and announced his orders: "I'm going to Hueco Mundo. Who's coming with me?"

Ikkaku Madarame jumped up: "Captain! You know me! If there's a chance to fight, I will never back down!"

Ayasegawa Yumichika said elegantly, "Captain, you know me. In terms of combat, I will never lose to Madarame Ikkaku."

""

Xia Zuo chuckled: "Captain, you know me. I'm a homebody and I don't go out easily."

Ikkaku and Yumichika were furious: "Natsuzo, you've ruined the formation!"

Xia Zuo scoffed, "I'll just destroy it. The two of you combined are no match for me. I can do whatever I want!"

Madarame Ikkaku retorted, "Pah! I was careless last time and failed to dodge. This time I will prove my strength."

Ayase Gyumichika gritted his teeth and said, "Natsuzo, don't be so smug. Once I learn your [Wind Wing Sky Slash], I will never lose to you in terms of 'beauty'!"

No one in the 11th Division cared why they were going to Hueco Mundo, or what they were going to do there.

Because all the Shinigami know that a war is bound to break out if they go to Hueco Mundo, and for them, that reason is enough.

Of course, Xia Zuo knew why.

After Aizen entered Hueco Mundo, his new ventures flourished, and within just a few months he completely conquered and integrated Hueco Mundo, bringing the former Las Noches under his control.

Aizen also mastered the technology to grant Hollows the power of Shinigami, and used Hollows to mass-produce Arrancar, resulting in a massive output.

As test subjects, these Arrancar were thrown into the human world by Aizen to fight against the Shinigami stationed there, in order to verify the Arrancar's technology and achievements.

As time went on, the Arrancars recruited by Hueco Mundo grew stronger and stronger, eventually including Arrancar Zero, who was comparable to Captain America.

They call themselves the "Espada," and all of them are perfect humanoids, no longer possessing any obvious beastly characteristics, and they fight using Zanpakuto from beginning to end.

Hollow is becoming more and more like the Grim Reaper. Is he about to replace the Grim Reaper?

Captain-Commander Yamamoto was deeply worried about this.

This is similar to the ancient Dongda discovery: when a stable steppe empire like the Xiongnu or a kingdom like Goguryeo with written laws appeared outside the border, they would be regarded as mortal enemies and would be eliminated at all costs.

For the Soul Society, no matter how powerful the Hollows are, they are not in competition with the Shinigami; their conflicts are minor and do not affect the fundamental issues.

But the Arrancars are clearly competing directly with the Shinigami. Even if they are weaker, they will be killed immediately!

The recently emerged "Kanja" level Arrancar is not only powerful, but also possesses a Zanpakuto ability called "Resurrection Blade".

The Toshiro team, temporarily stationed in the present world, clashed with him several times, but instead of gaining an advantage, they suffered considerable losses.

Especially in terms of intelligence, Aizen gradually figured out the Shinigami's strength, configuration, and skill characteristics.

Originally, this was just the prelude to the final battle, but Aizen unexpectedly discovered that Orihime Inoue, Ichigo Kurosaki's future wife, had awakened a rule-based superpower.

Aizen, who coveted Orihime Inoue's abilities, personally organized an operation to successfully kidnap her and bring her back to Las Noches in Hueco Mundo for his own use.

After receiving the report, Captain-Commander Yamamoto, combined with intelligence from other sources, concluded that Orihime Inoue had voluntarily defected and gone to Hueco Mundo.

So he decided to ignore her; after all, she wasn't the Grim Reaper, but just an ordinary human being.

But how could Ichigo Kurosaki accept that?

So he rallied his friends and formed the "Inoue Orihime Rescue Team," and with the help of Urahara Kisuke, they smuggled themselves into Hueco Mundo through the Black Hole to rescue her.

Upon hearing this, Rukia Kuchiki, who had just been transferred to the 13th Division, went to Hueco Mundo on her own to repay the favor she had received from the previous rescue, and joined the "Inoue Orihime Rescue Team".

Then, then the Soul Court went into chaos.

Rukia Kuchiki is the female protagonist; her role is absolutely the most significant, and she can easily change the situation between Soul Society and Hueco Mundo.

Renji Abarai, the vice-captain of the 6th Division, joined the rescue team in order to protect his beloved girl, Rukia.

Next, Byakuya Kuchiki, the captain of the Sixth Division, formally proposed the plan to raid Hueco Mundo and persuaded Captain-Commander Shigekuni Yamamoto to form the raiding force.

The members include Byakuya Kuchiki, who is eager to save his sister-in-law; Kenpachi Zaraki, who is itching to kill someone; Ikkaku Madarame, who is smugly following in his captain's footsteps; and Mayuri Kurotsuchi, who is grumbling but has no choice but to go.

After everyone had set off, Xia Zuo found his sister, Hana, and asked Kuchiki Byakuya what reason he had used to persuade the stubborn old man.

Retsu Unohana replied solemnly, "Byakuya's key reason for persuading us is that the human girl named Orihime Inoue has a very special ability."

"Her ability is called 'Universal Rejection,' which allows her to deny reality and eliminate any abnormal state of things—including their impact, damage, and even death—according to her own will. It makes it seem as if nothing ever happened."

Retsu Unohana frowned and said, "This ability is truly incredible; it completely overturns my understanding of abilities."

Xia Zuo then remembered that there was such a thing.

Previously, he only remembered that Inoue Orihime was kidnapped, and then the second rescue team was formed.

But Xia Zuo really forgot why Aizen carried out the kidnapping plan in the first place.

It's truly a shame that this overpowered ability was given to a useless character like Inoue Orihime. As the intensity of the war increased, Inoue Orihime withdrew from the battle, and Wanxiang Rejection faded from the story, tragically forgotten.

Another point is that the true heroine of Hueco Mundo is not Orihime Inoue, nor Rukia Kuchiki, but Nelliel, who can be both cute and mature, human and beast.

The reason for forgetting is quite understandable.

Suddenly, Xia Zuo's cheek was pinched by a pair of delicate hands. He felt that the hands were extremely beautiful, but there was a layer of tough calluses on the fingertips and the center of the palm.

Then a strong force came from Su's hand, turning Xia Zuo's face to the side, so that he was face to face with the beautiful and gentle Luan Zhihua Lie.

Xia Zuo asked with a smile, "Sister Hua, what's wrong?"

Retsu Unohana frowned slightly and said, "I felt like you were thinking about something bad just now, but now—you're not thinking about it anymore."

"Shaza, is there some extraordinary being in Hueco Mundo?"

Xia Zuo broke out in a cold sweat, secretly relieved that he had narrowly escaped death, but on the surface he smiled without any flaws and said, "What nonsense, I don't know anything about Hueco Mundo either."

"I was just thinking that maybe we'll be going to fight in the real world soon."

Unohana Retsu's attention was immediately diverted, and she asked in surprise, "Why would you say that?"

Xia Zuo relaxed and answered seriously, "Because Aizen is very cautious and makes meticulous plans for every operation."

"But if an emergency occurs, Aizen will immediately activate the backup plan, or even launch the planned plan ahead of time, in order to avoid being put in a passive position."

"It was one thing for Ichigo Kurosaki's team before, but with the addition of Renji Abarai and Rukia, things started to get a bit out of control."

"But Captain Kuchiki's proposal to organize a captain-level squad would definitely make Aizen feel threatened, causing him to launch the plan ahead of schedule."

Retsu Unohana was convinced. She nodded and murmured, "The present world, Karakura Town—"

A few hours later, in the present world, above Karakura Town, a group of ghouls were surrounded by a dense swarm of Shinigami, led by Captain-Commander Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni.

But no Grim Reaper dared to act rashly.

The four Valhalla-level Hollows put considerable pressure on the Shinigami, but the captains' main attention was on Aizen Sousuke, who was floating in the sky not far away.

A few months ago, they experienced firsthand the terror of being deeply hypnotized, and now, seeing Aizen with an even more unfathomable aura, their fear was naturally stirred up.

No one knows whether, while fighting the Arrancar, they will unknowingly witness a mirage and once again become puppets controlled by Aizen.

Moreover, even when Aizen is hovering in the distance, the spiritual pressure he exudes is not strong, but it still carries a fear that emanates from the very soul.

Clearly, his strength has reached an unfathomable level, putting him far ahead of all the captains.

The difference in strength, coupled with their fear of Kyoka Suigetsu's abilities, caused all the captains to hesitate, and they all turned their attention to their own Captain-Commander Yamamoto.

This stalemate is precisely the crucial moment for leaders to play their role.

Without the slightest hesitation, Yamamoto Shigekuni drew his Zanpakuto: "All things shall turn to ashes, Ryujin Jakka!"

Unlike when it was released in Soul Society, Ryujin Jakka, when released in the human world, had a material medium, which allowed it to unleash even more terrifying power.

At the very moment of their initial release, the sudden burst of flames evaporated all the moisture in the air, and the scorching heat forced both the Arrancar and the Shinigami to retreat.

Mopping the dust is a completely subconscious action, done without conscious thought.

Immediately afterwards, under Captain-Commander Yamamoto's control, the towering flames converged into pillars of fire, which then connected to form walls of fire that curved and spread in all directions, interlocking with each other.

In the blink of an eye, a huge hollow fireball appeared in the sky, enveloping the smiling Aizen, Gin Ichimaru, and Captain-Commander Yamamoto, forming a separate battlefield.

Amidst the flames, Gin Ichimaru covered his face with his hands, feigning distress, and said, "Wow, it's so hot! This heatwave is so intense. It seems the Captain-Commander doesn't want us to join the battle."

"Captain Aizen, what do we do?"

This time, Aizen didn't back down an inch. Instead, he took the initiative to approach Yamamoto Shigekuni, replying as he walked, "Gin, you just need to wait quietly."

"The Captain-Commander is the absolute leader of the Grim Reapers, so naturally I'll handle him."

"It's not bad that he and I fought in a small circle of fire. Without the Captain-Commander as a backup, those captains can't do anything to the Starks."

Landing before Yamamoto Shigekuni, Aizen asked, "Captain-Commander, are you going to fight me to the death this time?"

The captain snorted coldly and said, "I don't have such cowardly thoughts."

"Aizen, the reason you had the upper hand before was only because I was hypnotized by you and couldn't lock onto your presence, which allowed you to be so smug."

"Now, I've confined you to this cramped space. Once I burn everything inside this fireball, can you still evade my attack?"

Aizen chuckled, "This space is far too small for a Captain-Commander, so of course I can't hide, but—"

"Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni, how could you possibly think that after possessing the Hogyoku for so long, I'm still relying on my past achievements and haven't yet mastered a spiritual pressure surpassing yours?"
