Both start in hell: but their talents are multiplied a hundredfold.

On rainy nights in the modern world, the air is so thick that it feels like you could wring out black ink.

Hundreds of phantoms, like sharks smelling blood, swarmed out of the cracked space.

On the street, several Shinigami members stood back to back in a circle, their bodies covered in wounds, their spiritual pressure teetering on the brink of collapse due to intense depletion.

"Damn it! There are too many of them!" a team member roared in despair as his Zanpakuto was broken by a Hollow that attacked from behind, and he was sent flying by a Hollow that swung its tail.

Another member of the Death Knight team abandoned killing a small Hollow and caught him.

"Form ranks! Amplify your spiritual pressure with the Shinigami Terminal and unleash 'Hado #63: Thunder Roar Cannon'!" the leading Shinigami member shouted, channeling his remaining spiritual pressure into the Shinigami Terminal.

hum!

The terminal screen emitted a blinding blue light as several team members frantically poured their remaining spiritual pressure into it.

A thick bolt of lightning, aided by the terminal's computing power, shot skyward and instantly shattered dozens of phantoms in front of it.

However, this is merely a drop in the ocean.

More Void beings surged forward, stepping over the corpses of their comrades, their nauseatingly greedy eyes mocking the final struggles of the Grim Reapers.

"We can't keep up with the spiritual pressure!" The team members' faces turned pale as they became weak from outputting too much spiritual pressure, and the power of their Kido was also weakening.

Since Shen Jue and others developed the Death Terminal, the mission to eliminate Hollows in the real world has become a stable mission with a near-zero casualty rate.

Several ordinary Shinigami members team up to provide spiritual pressure to integrate the Kido runes in the Shinigami terminal, creating high-level Kido that can even rival the Great Hollows of Gillian.

Not long ago, a Shinigami member was attacked by Hollows while performing a routine Soul Burial ceremony to send souls from the living world to the Soul Society.

The surrounding Shinigami members rushed to their aid, only to be met with a sudden attack by a large number of Hollows.

The situation quickly spiraled out of control, and many Death Knights members were caught in a fierce battle.

In this critical moment, as waves of ice and snow froze several Void creatures, a petite figure staggered back into the battle.

Rukia Kuchiki's Zanpakuto, Sode no Shirayuki, was stained with filth, and her black Shinigami robes were torn in several places. Her breathing was rapid and heavy.

As an ordinary member of the 13th Division, she shouldn't have broken away from the team alone to face a Hollow Tide of this scale, but as the only Shinigami on the scene who could use Shikai, she had to stand at the forefront.

"Don't stop! Keep suppressing it!" Rukia shouted, forcibly suppressing the dizziness caused by the depletion of her spiritual pressure.

She swung her Zanpakuto, attempting to use the chilling aura of her Shikai to block the Hollows' onslaught, but there were simply too many Hollows, and the chilling aura only managed to freeze a few before being broken through by the horde of Hollows that surged forward.

"Rukia! Left wing!" a team member exclaimed.

Rukia whirled around and swung her sleeve, White Snow, to sever a small Hollow that was attacking her, but another Hollow's claws grazed her cheek, leaving a bloody mark.

Her spiritual pressure became unstable, her legs went weak, and she almost fell.

"We...can't hold on much longer..." The team members looked at the densely packed Hollows around them in despair, their spiritual pressure teetering on the brink of collapse.

"Don't give up!" Rukia Kuchiki shouted encouragingly to her teammates. "Reinforcements will be here soon!"

"We are Death itself!"

As Rukia Kuchiki lowered her sleeves, she strained to gather the little spiritual pressure within her body, preparing to chant and unleash a high-level Kido.

An elegant yet deadly azure flame shot out from the top of a tall building on the side at supersonic speed.

"Hado No. 73: Twin Lotus Blue Flame Fall".

The azure flames accurately struck the numerous Hollow minions that the Shinigami members were defending in formation, and the intensely burning flames and energy sent all the surrounding Hollow minions flying.

As the smoke cleared, a tall, slender figure landed beside Rukia.

He was wearing the 10th Division's haori, and his face carried a hint of lazy apology.

"Sorry I'm late," Shen Jue said, nodding to Kuchiki Rukia. He glanced around at the restless Hollows and remarked, "It's strange that so many Hollows have suddenly appeared."

No, not at all surprising, Shen Jue thought to himself.

All these illusions were secretly manipulated by Shen Jue's friend, the founder of Hair Gel Hands, Aizen.

This virtual siege in the real world is only part of the plan.

"Captain Shen Jue!" Rukia gasped for breath, her hand gripping Sode Shirayuki trembling slightly, a look of relief at surviving a close call on her face.

"It was you who came to rescue us personally."

"Great! It's Captain Shen Jue! These Void beings are in deep trouble!" The Death God team members cheered.

Shen Jue smiled and nodded.

"Of course it's me," Shen Jue thought to himself.

As the sister-in-law of Byakuya Kuchiki, the current head of the Kuchiki family and captain of the 6th Division of the Seireitei, it's impossible for you not to send a powerful Shinigami to the rescue.

Before I left Soul Society, Byakuya Kuchiki bowed and begged me to bring you back to Soul Society intact.

Many years ago, Shen Jue used the Reincarnation Technique to reverse the spiritual pressure state of Kuchiki Rukia's older sister, Kuchiki Hisana, back to the healthiest timeline.

The story brings the seriously ill Hisa Kuchiki back to health, and also moves Byakuya Kuchiki, who almost became a widower, to tears of gratitude.

Just thinking about the pleading look in Kuchiki Byakuya's eyes, Shen Jue felt that this kid had poured the same feelings he had for Kuchiki Rukia's older sister, Kuchiki Hisana, onto Kuchiki Rukia.

Kuchiki Byakuya will definitely wake up laughing tonight.

After all, apart from their different hairstyles and eyes, the sisters Rukia and Hisa both have flat chests and identical faces.

No wonder Ichigo Kurosaki ended up with Orihime Inoue and got married.

You should know that among Shinigami and humans, Inoue Orihime is second only to Matsumoto Rangiku in strength!

If Shen Jue were in the same situation as Kurosaki Ichigo, he would also choose Inoue Orihime without hesitation.

Putting everything else aside, isn't facial cleanser good enough?

As for why it was Shen Jue, the head of the Seireitei security team, who came to rescue the Grim Reaper in the mortal world...

This is because Shen Jue has already maxed out his talent points and ability values ​​for the skill "Instant Step".

Even the captain of the brigade would be left in the dust by Shen Jue's Instant Step.

This absolute speed, surpassing that of the other Shinigami in Soul Society, forced Shen Jue to become the busiest firefighter in Soul Society.

Wherever there is a dangerous emergency, there Shen Jue will be.

Given Rukia Kuchiki's special status, only Shen Jue could personally take action.

"Step back and rest. Leave this to me." Shen Jue raised his hand, without even drawing his Zanpakuto, Human Game.

The spiritual pressure at his fingertips began to gather, transforming into a high-energy stream of spiritual particles.

Ghostly runes flickered on his fingertips.

"Binding Path No. 81: Severing Emptiness".

"Hado: Thousand Turns of White Lightning".
