Death's Hidden Mobile

Kisuke Urahara raised an eyebrow and asked, "What do you mean?"

Xia Yan's face was cold as he looked at him and said, "Mr. Urahara Kisuke, I was born in the Inugawa Ward. Kuchiki Rukia saved me. She is my friend and my sister. Why did she lose her memory when she came to Karakura Town? Why is there something else in her body?"

Xia Yan was furious at Urahara Kisuke's self-righteousness; if it weren't for him, Rukia wouldn't have suffered such hardship.

So his expression at this moment wasn't an act.

Kisuke Urahara narrowed his eyes and asked, "You know about that thing?"

Xia Yan nodded and said, "I started paying attention to Aizen after I saw him experiment with his soul. However, his Hogyoku has never achieved the results he wants. In addition to modifying Hollows, he is also trying to obtain your Hogyoku and try to combine them into one to achieve the perfect Hogyoku."

Kisuke Urahara immediately asked, "Did he know that the Hogyoku was inside Rukia?"

Xia Yan shook his head and said, "I don't know yet, but we should be able to find out. He has already entered the Great Spiritual Book Corridor. Mr. Urahara Kisuke should know what's in the Great Spiritual Book Corridor, right?"

"I see."

Kisuke Urahara's expression was grim as he said, "It seems I've done something wrong."

Xia Yan shook his head and said, "It's not wrong. This is a good opportunity to use Rukia Kuchiki as bait to surround and kill Aizen."

Aikawa Rao asked, "Urahara Kisuke, isn't he a spy?"

Kisuke Urahara shook his head and said, "If he were a spy, we would probably be dead by now."

With a single sentence from Kisuke Urahara, everyone's murderous intent subsided, and their movements became more relaxed.

Hirako Shinji looked at Natsuhiko and said, "If you really have a way to kill him, we can help you."

Aizen forced them to Hollowfication and leave Seireitei; this grudge cannot go unavenged.

Xia Yan said with a wry smile, "It's not possible yet. We need to find a suitable opportunity after Aizen reveals his true strength. He's too powerful; we simply can't deal with him."

Hirako Shinji narrowed his eyes and said, "You're saying that even if we all work together, we can't defeat him?"

Xia Yan nodded and said, "That's right, he only used one slash to seriously injure me."

Recalling Aizen on that day, Natsuhiko still felt some fear. Aizen's power made Natsuhiko feel powerless, and he didn't even know how to defeat him.

But these fears will turn into motivation until Xia Yan becomes strong enough to fight Aizen.

Sarugaki Hiyori snorted and said, "That's because you're too weak, kid. You're not even a vice-captain, you're just a third seat."

Xia Yan said softly, "Aizen didn't make a move at first. It was Tosen Kaname who made the move. He was already a captain. I defeated him before Aizen knocked me down."

"Tosen Kaname? That guy's already a captain? The quality of Shinigami these days is really low." Kensei Muguruma said with an unfriendly expression.

When Kensei Muguruma was captain, Kaname Tosen was only a fifth seat. Tosen ambushed the third and fourth seats, and his betrayal made Kensei Muguruma extremely angry.

Xia Yan said softly, "If Kenpachi Zaraki only takes off his blindfold and doesn't use dual swordsmanship, he is no match for me."

“Kenpachi Zaraki? Kid, don’t exaggerate. We all know how strong that monster is when he takes off his eyepatch,” said Aikawa Raito, standing next to Natsuhiko.

Seventy-one years ago, Kenpachi Zaraki was already known as a monster, and everyone knew of his strength.

Kisuke Urahara said, "I even prepared his eyepatch for him. You said you're only thirty-two years old, I don't think you could possibly defeat Kenpachi Zaraki."

Hearing this, Xia Yan had no choice but to stand up and say, "Since everyone doesn't believe in my strength, I want to demonstrate it. Not to prove how strong I am, but to prove how strong Aizen is. I wonder who is willing to be my opponent?"

Hiyori Sarugaki snorted and said, "I'll do it. Let's see how strong you are, kid."

"Then let's give it a try."

Kisuke Urahara said softly, also wanting to know just how strong Aizen really was.

The members of the Masked Army scattered, leaving the open space to the two of them.

"Hiyori, you must be careful to hold back," Hirako Shinji said softly.

Hiyori Sarugaki said with a smile, "Don't worry, I won't kill him. However, since he underestimated us like that, I'll teach him a lesson."

"Come on, bald guy."

"I'm not bald..."

Chapter 94: Hiyori Sarugaki (Fifth Update)

"What are you still standing there for? Aren't you going to attack?" Hiyori Sarugaki looked at Natsuhiko in front of her, somewhat puzzled.

Xia Yan looked at her and said, "Hisori-senpai, please take out your Zanpakuto, otherwise you are no match for me."

Enraged, Hiyori Sarugaki laughed and said, "Defeat me? What are you thinking? I can defeat you with just my hands."

"This kid is far too arrogant," Fengqiao Lou Shilang said softly.

Shinji Hirako smiled and said, "It wouldn't be good to anger Hiyori."

Upon hearing Hiyori Sarugaki's words, Xia Yan's body suddenly vanished, and the next moment, he appeared behind Hiyori Sarugaki, his left hand slashing towards Hiyori's neck.

"So fast."

Hiyori Sarugaki's expression changed, and she instinctively dodged, but as soon as she stepped back, she touched a cold object on her back. "Hiyori-senpai, you lost."

Sarugaki Hiyori turned around and saw Natsuhiko appear behind her, holding a strange short thorn in his right hand and pressing it against her waist.

If I continue to retreat, and if my opponent doesn't hold back, I will be defeated in an instant.

How can this be?

"Such fast Instant Step!" Aikawa Raibu exclaimed in surprise.

Hirako Shinji said with a smile, "He seemed to have said that he came from the Covert Mobile Force, right?"

Yoruichi smiled and said, "The Covert Mobile Force is still as excellent as ever."

Hiyori Sarugaki felt somewhat ashamed to be defeated so easily, but she also knew that her Shunpo was inferior to his. She gritted her teeth, drew her Zanpakuto, and slashed out with a backhand.

Xia Yan raised his short dagger, and with a clang, the Zanpakuto was blocked.

Clang, clang, clang.

Hiyori Sarugaki unleashed a frenzied barrage of slashes. Though not tall, she was extremely agile, but no matter how she attacked, she could not break through the short dagger in Natsuhiko's hand.

Seeing this, Hiyori Sarugaki knew that her opponent's strength was indeed greater than her own, so she stopped holding back and whispered, "Sever him, kill Orochi."

The next moment, the sword in Hiyori Sarugaki's hand suddenly grew larger, turning into a huge cleaver with serrated edges, and slashed towards Natsuhiko's head.

"The speed has increased."

Although Hiyori Sarugaki's Zanpakuto ability wasn't shown in the original work, it seems to have increased her speed now.

Natsuhiko's Shunpo and Hikaru techniques are superior to Sarugaki Hiyori's, but he is still no match for her in Shikai form.

Then, streaks of blue light emerged from Xia Yan's body, gathering on his hands and feet.

boom.

Hiyori Sarugaki's slash missed its mark, striking the ground and immediately creating a deep trench that stretched into the distance.

"His strength has also increased, so it seems that using only Instant Step is not enough to succeed."

At that moment, Xia Yan appeared behind her, his arms and legs flashing with blue light, his Zanpakuto unsheathed, and he slashed towards Sarugaki Hiyori's neck.

clang.

Just as the sword was about to strike, Hiyori Sarugaki turned around in time and raised her long sword, causing the two swords to clash.

"Ah! What immense power!"

Hiyori Sarugaki was forced back a step by the immense force, and Natsuhiko was also inevitably forced back a step. The surrounding dust rippled due to the huge shock.

"This is?"

Yoruichi's eyes widened in the distance. Although it was an incomplete version, it was indeed Shunko. How could he possibly master it?

Hiyori Sarugaki brandished her sword, repeatedly slashing at Natsuhiko, but he calmly blocked her attacks.

Xia Yan's speed was slightly faster than that of Sarugaki Hiyori, but because of Sarugaki Hiyori's reckless fighting style, Xia Yan had to curb his speed.

"Let's blur it out."

Shinji Hirako couldn't help but stand up and shout. He knew that Hiyori Sarugaki was no match for Natsuhiko, but he wanted to know just how strong Natsuhiko really was.

"Got it, Baldy."

Sarugaki Hiyori shouted impatiently, took a step back, and pulled his left hand across his face, revealing a demon mask with sharp horns.

The next moment, Hiyori Sarugaki's aura surged, and with a stomp of her feet on the ground, her figure suddenly disappeared, lunging towards Natsuhiko.

"So fast."

Xia Yan only saw a reflection. Just as he raised his Zanpakuto, Sarugaki Hiyori slashed at him, causing him to stagger back several steps.

"Come on, let's see what other tricks you have up your sleeve."

Hiyori Sarugaki's movements became faster and stronger, making it increasingly difficult for Natsuhiko to defend himself. With a bang, after an impact, Natsuhiko was sent flying backward.

"After Hiyori Sarugaki Hollowed out, Natsuhiko was no match for her. What will Natsuhiko choose to do then—Hollow out again or unleash her power?"

Aikawa Raibu asked, "Whichever one it is, Natsuhiko can defeat Sarugaki Hiyori."

However, Xia Yan's strength has now been assessed. In his Hollowfication or Shikai form, he is half a level higher than Hiyori Sarugaki in her Hollowfication form.

However, if one simultaneously achieves initial release and becomes intangible, it will be one and a half levels higher than Hiyori Sarugaki.

This is a simple ability conversion.

But what is the truth?

When Natsuhiko is at full strength, he has the power to do swordsmanship with both hands without his blindfold, just like Kenpachi Zaraki. Now that he has become Hollowfied, how strong is he?

On the battlefield, when Hiyori Sarugaki swung her sword, Natsuhiko gripped the hilt with both hands, raised it diagonally, and blocked Hiyori Sarugaki's sword in front of him.

Xia Yan lowered his body, barely managing to block Hiyori Sarugaki's slash with his hands.

At that instant, an arc of electricity spread along the long sword and instantly reached Hiyori Sarugaki.

"What is this?" Kisuke Urahara narrowed his eyes.

Yushōda Hachigen's eyes lit up, and he said, "The twelfth of the Hado, adorned with lightning, without chanting."

Lisa Yadomaru said, "But low-level Hadokyu is too weak and poses no danger to Hiyori in her Masked form."

But Hachigen Arisaka smiled and said, "No, because..."
