Shirou's clones number 30 million

Shirou Yasaka paused, then continued:

"Besides the Death God Ranking, I also plan to release a ranking of the highest combat power in the One Piece world, and a ranking of the strongest evil women in Bai Ze's world."

"What good will doing this do you?" Aizen looked at his retreating figure with a speechless expression.

"It can verify the accuracy of intelligence and accumulate relevant experience. In this way, after my clone returns from its cosmic training in a while, I will release a power ranking of the Cthulhu Mythos system."

"So this is your purpose? You felt pressured by the boss Nyaruko mentioned, so you planned to stir up trouble everywhere?"

"You're calling being prepared for a rainy day an unnecessary worry?"

"No, you've been the main character in my dreams for so long, your intuition has some merit. It's not entirely useless."

Aizen paused, then smiled and said:

"I'm just here to watch the fun. By the way, could you please remove me from the list?"

"Impossible." Yasaka Shirou refused without hesitation. "It's a ranking of Shinigami strength, yet the current Captain-Commander isn't included. Is that appropriate?"

"What's wrong with it? If you put me first without my consent, Death will definitely take a dislike to me and come looking for trouble."

"What are you afraid of? You can easily deal with it, can't you?"

"Although I'm not afraid, it's really troublesome."

"Alright! Done!"

Shirou Yasaka stood up and began to silently chant a spell.

The next moment, the same phantom rose in the sky above every city in the human world, Soul Society, and Hueco Mundo.

But only those with spiritual aptitude can see all of this.

For ordinary people, the sky remains as blue as ever, with only blue skies and white clouds, and the contrails left by passing airplanes.

......

"what is that!"

Inside the classroom, Ichigo Kurosaki, who was sitting by the window, suddenly stood up and stared in astonishment at the huge curtain of light in the sky.

At the same time, a cold yet powerful voice came from the air.

[Top 100 Death Gods in the World - Ranking]

The next moment, the figure of a male Shinigami appeared on the light screen, followed by a scene of him fighting a group of Hollows.

Although I can't recall his name, he looks familiar. I've seen him at a banquet before; he seems to be a banquet officer from the Seventh Division.

"Ichigo Kurosaki! What are you doing?"

The teacher's sudden voice snapped Ichigo Kurosaki out of his daze, and he asked in surprise:

"Teacher, can't you see anything in the sky?"

"What is that? The clouds in the sky? Get up and stand at the back of the classroom!"

"Teacher, can't you really see the light screen in the sky? The world's top 100..."

"Are you still half asleep? Get up! Go stand outside the classroom and don't disturb the other students."

Why can't the teacher see it?

Kurosaki Ichigo quickly thought of Inoue Orihime. If it was something that only people with spiritual powers could see, Inoue Orihime, who was also a Shinigami, would definitely be able to see it.

"Inoue, you should be able to see it too, right? That curtain of light in the sky."

Orihime Inoue paused slightly, glanced at the sky outside the window, and shook her head, saying:

"There's nothing there. Kurosaki-san must be mistaken."

I'm sorry, Ichigo-kun, I can't help you.

Since only the two of us can see it, such testimony is completely meaningless.

"You can't see it either? That's impossible!"

Ichigo Kurosaki couldn't help but rub his eyes. The Grim Reaper in the sky had changed. This time, it was another Grim Reaper whose name he couldn't recall, but who looked very familiar.

"Ichigo Kurosaki, stand up! Go stand at the back of the classroom."

"Oh."

Kurosaki Ichigo agreed, slowly stood up, and walked to the back of the classroom under the angry gaze of the middle-aged female teacher.

But his gaze remained fixed on the sky.

Compared to the situation inside the classroom, the holographic projection in the sky outside the window always draws all his attention.

The names of the Grim Reapers on the list increase continuously from the hundredth onwards.

As each scene unfolds, the list next to the light screen continues to grow, with names being added to it.

'Huh...? Rukia is only ranked 73rd?'

'I wonder how good I am, whether I can rank in the top ten?'

'I'm one of the captains of the Soul Society; if I can't even rank in the top ten, it would be too embarrassing.'

'Inoue-san is ranked 70th! She's been a Grim Reaper for even less time than I have, right?'

'However, why are all the scenes involving her training with Aizen?'

As time went on, when the rankings reached 51st place, the school bell rang just in time to signal the end of get out of class.

As the teacher left the classroom, Ichigo Kurosaki was about to return to his seat when he discovered that Tatsuki Arisawa had already taken his place and was chatting and laughing with Orihime Inoue while looking out the window at the sky.

Not far away, Ishida Uryu pretended to be indifferent, but his frequent glances out the window and his perked-up ears betrayed his true feelings.

"Inoue-kun, didn't you just say there was nothing outside the window?"

"I'm sorry, Ichigo-kun." Orihime Inoue bowed her head and apologized.

"Never mind, I think I understand how you feel. What about Long Gui? Can you see him too?"

"Yes, I saw it very clearly. I never thought the power in the manga 'Bleach' was real. So you two were doing such dangerous things."

Chapter 606 Why is he ranked fourth?

Chapter 606, Section 607: Why is he ranked fourth?

It wasn't until school let out in the afternoon that the Grim Reaper, as shown on the screen, finally moved up to fourth place.

Upon seeing his name, Ichigo Kurosaki was completely taken aback.

"I'm ranked fourth! That's outrageous! And what's with the visuals? When did I ever fight that old man Yamamoto?"

Whether in reality or in the comics I've read before, I don't think I've ever fought against the former Captain-Commander Yamamoto.

"I can't believe Ichigo has become so powerful."

Tatsuki Arisawa punched Ichigo Kurosaki in the chest, looking back and forth between the scene playing on the screen in the sky and Ichigo Kurosaki walking beside him in reality.

"I'm not that amazing. The images being projected from the sky might be of me in the future?"

At that moment, Aizen appeared from outside the school gate and interjected:

"No, that's who you are now."

"Aizen-sensei."

Orihime Inoue, who was walking on the other side of Tatsuki Arisawa, immediately went to greet him.

"I probably won't even rank 70th, right?"

“There’s no need to worry too much. That’s you at your strongest.” Aizen glanced at the sky and then said, “This is the conclusion I reached by removing other factors and putting all of you in the fairest possible environment to fight.”

"Huh...? Did Aizen-sensei make this list?" Inoue Orihime couldn't help but ask.

"No, that was done by a friend of mine."

Aizen shook his head slightly, saying with a hint of helplessness:

"He wanted to incite conflict among certain people, so he released this list to our world in advance. Let's just call it a rehearsal."

"Huh...? Oh...."

Orihime Inoue nodded, seemingly understanding, then asked curiously:

"Aizen-sensei, what is Squad Zero? It seems that many of the top twenty are members of Squad Zero."

"Squad Zero is a special squad whose duty is to protect the Soul King."

Aizen paused, then smiled and said:

"Although the Soul King has lost its function, it is still a tradition that has lasted for countless years, and the people of the Zero Division haven't quite caught up with it yet."

"Is it really appropriate for me to be ranked fourth?" Kurosaki Ichigo interjected.

"No, it's perfect. In a life-or-death battle, you might unleash your full potential, and the rankings take that into account. During the simulation, you risked your life to severely injure Captain-Commander Yamamoto."

Upon hearing this, Inoue Orihime couldn't help but smile:

"Kurosaki-kun is the male protagonist of a manga, so he's bound to unleash some kind of power."

"What I mean is, if I'm ranked fourth, won't that cause hostility from the people behind me?" Kurosaki Ichigo frowned slightly. "At that time, there will definitely be many people who are dissatisfied with the ranking and come to challenge me to a duel."

"Yes, so make the necessary mental preparations in advance."

Aizen smiled slightly, then turned to look at Orihime Inoue:

"Since the list was released at noon, the Seireitei has become very chaotic, and there are even people wandering outside my courtyard."

"So, I won't go to Seireitei tonight. I'll stay at your place instead."

“Okay.” Inoue Orihime nodded subconsciously.

"Oh...!" Arisawa Tatsuki, who was standing next to her, grinned mischievously and whispered in her ear, "Orihime is making pretty good progress."

Orihime Inoue blushed involuntarily and quickly explained:

"That's just cultivation, cultivation. Just like what was shown in the previous scene, cultivating the way of the sword and the way of the demon."

"Alright, in that case, I won't bother you any longer. I also have some things to discuss with Ichigo."

Arisawa Tatsuki smiled and winked, then grabbed Kurosaki Ichigo's arm and walked in another direction.
