Death: This Death is a bit unorthodox.

As long as we treat him and his grandmother well, everything will be fine.

Now, facing Aozaki Mayuki's various demands.

Although he kept complaining, his body language betrayed him by doing exactly what he was doing.

For example, when practicing Kendo.

Despite muttering that the thing was useless to him.

However, he insists on training for several hours every day, and his diligence far exceeds that of Matsumoto Rangiku.

Getting Matsumoto Rangiku to train seriously is not something that can be resolved with just a few words...

After enjoying the culinary feast.

Aozaki Mayuki instructed Hitsugaya Toshiro and Hinamori Momo to take the packed food and go home first.

He then headed alone toward South Rukongai, hoping to encounter someone who might interest him there.

However, after walking for a while, Aozaki Mayuki suddenly stopped.

He felt a slight vibration in his body.

After searching his pockets for a moment, Aozaki Mayuki pulled out a token with a skull pattern.

The back of the token was actually a small screen that emitted a faint glow.

After the screen lights up.

A brown-skinned man can be seen appearing on the screen, his expression showing no hesitation whatsoever.

"Lord Aozaki!"

Aozaki Mayuki heard it clearly; the way she called out "Master" came out quite naturally.

It's clear that Tosen Kaname has no grudges against Aozaki Mazuki.

After all, even his original boss, Aizen, acknowledged him as a "friend".

After learning that Aozaki Mayuki had destroyed the Tsunayo branch family and killed Tsunayo Tokinada, he never disobeyed Aozaki Mayuki's orders again.

"What's the matter?"

After a moment of silence, Tosen said in a deep voice:

"We have news about the person you were looking for."

.........

On the vast, snow-covered desert, a group of broken-faced figures hurriedly ran.

They were all wearing matching white uniforms.

Ordinary Hollows could immediately recognize these people as important figures from Las Noches.

To be chosen by that king and undergo Arrancar transformation.

This means that they are at least Adjuchas-level powerhouses.

However, when they witnessed their panicked expressions, the onlookers were all incredulous.

After all, there was that invincible king who ruled Hueco Mundo with absolute military force.

Almost everyone in Hueco Mundo knows his fame.

Who else would dare to provoke this group of Arrancar who follow that king?

No one answered their questions.

The Arrancar's only thought was to get back to Las Noches as soon as possible and find the two rulers of Hueco Mundo.

However… recalling the extremely powerful spiritual pressure that had just emanated from afar, the Arrancar's expressions turned exceptionally grim.

They never expected this.

It turns out that the Hollows with that terrifying spiritual pressure were not only Barragan and Szayelaporro, who once ruled Hueco Mundo.

There are even more terrifying monsters lurking within Hueco Mundo!

Just a little closer.

That powerful and oppressive spiritual pressure made it almost impossible for people to breathe.

She almost fainted!

The leaders exchanged glances, their eyes conveying the same thought.

What they discovered this time is very likely the person that the new ruler of Hueco Mundo is interested in.

If we can successfully complete the task assigned by that lord, we may be able to receive a reward to improve our strength!

Why should only females be allowed to do this?

For the sake of power, even males have the courage to sacrifice themselves!

The Arrancar's eyes gleamed with excitement, as if they were already envisioning a bright future.

In Hueco Mundo, where strength is revered, if one cannot win the favor and protection of that lord with an outstanding appearance, then strength is undoubtedly the most important factor.

However, at that moment, the leader of the Arrancars suddenly roared:

"Stop!!"

This sudden action stunned everyone, and all eyes turned to him.

Without hesitation, he knelt on one knee, his expression serious and solemn.

"His Majesty has arrived! What are you all standing there for? Do you want to die? Kneel down, all of you!"

As he finished speaking, many of the Arrancars showed expressions of panic on their faces.

They quickly looked up, and when they saw that familiar figure, they hurriedly knelt on one knee, not daring to be negligent in the slightest.

"Your Majesty... Your Majesty!!"

The Arrancars shouted in unison, their voices filled with awe.

"Alright, enough with the nonsense, get up!"

Amidst respectful shouts, Aozaki Mayuki casually waved her hand, signaling everyone to stand up.

His tone was calm, yet it sent a shiver down the spines of the Arrancar.

This is the prestige brought by the killing of Barragán and Sárcavaro.

Leaving aside Szayelaporro, Barragan ruled Hueco Mundo for a full million years.

His power was undeniable, yet he was still easily killed by this king with overwhelming force.

Chapter 272 I'm Getting Angry

In the vast, boundless silver sea of ​​sand, the broken faces lay sprawled on the ground.

The original squad of nearly twenty Arrancars now has fewer than three members still standing.

Everyone's face was filled with terror, and their eyes were all fixed on the distant sand dune peaks.

There sat a figure, draped in tattered black cloth, with his eyes slightly lowered, revealing a sense of dejection and helplessness.

Beside him stood a young girl dressed in the same tattered black cloth, looking down with great interest.

"Stark, Stark, look! Those guys... their masks seem to be incomplete just like ours!"

The girl nudged the middle-aged man next to her hard in the waist with her elbow.

But Stark did not respond to her.

Compared to the broken-faced figures, all his attention was focused on the light-footed man behind them.

The man was dressed in a black shihaka outfit, with a white haori draped over it.

As the haori flutters in the wind, the characters "eleven" can be faintly seen embroidered on it.

His figure was tall and slender, like a towering mountain peak.

His long, black hair cascaded down his shoulders like a waterfall, gently brushing against his fair skin, exuding a soft and mysterious aura.

From a distance, he appeared to be a refined and elegant gentleman.

But... this is undoubtedly just a facade.

Since their birth in Hueco Mundo, the Starks have lived for an extremely long time.

However, standing in front of this man at this moment brought him unprecedented pressure.

This pressure does not come from spiritual pressure, but from a deep-seated fear.

It's as if the slightest mistake could lead to being completely wiped off the face of the earth.

“You are different from us, and you are also different from the void.”

"Are you the King of Hueco Mundo, the one they call 'Shinigami'?"

He gazed at Aozaki Mayuki before him and asked in a calm voice.

"You're right, I am 'Death'."

Aozaki Mayuki nodded slightly in agreement.

Strictly speaking, "Grim Reaper" is merely a professional title, not a reference to a particular type of life.

The typical Grim Reaper belongs to the concept of "wholeness" as opposed to "hollow".

Although his current level of life has already transcended the realm of the "whole" spiritual life.

But there's absolutely nothing wrong with calling himself the Grim Reaper.

As long as Yamamoto keeps him in the Gotei 13, he's a Shinigami (death god)...

Aozaki Mayuki looked at the two people on the sand dune with a keen interest in his eyes.

Just as he expected, these two guys were exactly the people he was interested in—

Cortaya Stark and Lilynette Kingjebak.

Starks, huh...
