Even though he was hailed as a "genius among geniuses" because of his academic achievements, his personality was utterly baffling. Moreover, he was clearly a complete pervert! From before graduating from elementary school, he had a penchant for groping and obsessive behavior. This caused widespread resentment throughout the school, and even the principal's visits to his home couldn't stop him.

If it weren't for his academic achievements, he would have been expelled countless times. How could someone like that utter such high-sounding nonsense as "loving to study"? Are they idiots?

"Why are you guys looking at me like that?" Wuyue complained helplessly. "Okay, actually it's because there are some things that still need to be resolved. So we can't really establish a relationship for the time being."

"Something?"

"Is it because of Brother Wuyue's womanizing ways?"

"Ah, this guy may be a bit of a pervert, but he still has quite a few girls throwing themselves at him."

The Kurosaki siblings started discussing it amongst themselves.

"Okay, I've turned into a freak again." Wuyue's mentality was a bit broken. It was all because of that damn system, with all those ridiculous tasks it issued. Otherwise, he would have already reached the pinnacle of life! "Forget about me. Ichigo, how are things between you and Ryuki?" Helpless, he had no choice but to change the subject.

"We're just like that," Ichigo Kurosaki scratched his head. Compared to the simple childhood friendship in the original story, the relationship between Ichigo and Tatsuki in this world is much more complicated. Under the influence of his mother and Mugetsu, his emotional intelligence is far from the dull-witted level he once was.

"What do you mean 'just like that'... that won't do." Wuyue shrugged, then suddenly her eyes lit up when she saw something strange. It was a bespectacled old man with a lewd look, lying behind Kurosaki Ichigo. He was looking at the group with a comical expression. "Tsk, looks like you've brought another guest home."

"What, what, another ghost?" Youzi asked with a curious expression.

"This time it's a middle-aged man." Compared to her younger sister, Xia Li's spiritual talent is clearly more advanced. "Ichigo always picks up strange people at home."

"Hey? Why can Xia Li see it? That's not fair!" Youzi complained.

“I’m an atheist,” Xia Li shrugged and said, “Even if I could see it, I would pretend it doesn’t exist.”

"Is that even a thing?" Kurosaki Ichigo asked, his face showing surprise as he banished the old man's soul from his house.

"A ghost? Did another ghost just appear?" Orihime's eyes revealed curiosity. "Ah, I want to see one too."

“Yes, you will.” Wuyue said in a meaningful tone, “You will see it soon, not long.”

After chatting for a while, Wuyue left first, saying she was going to take Orihime home. Xia Li and Yu Zi also went to their rooms to rest after washing up because they had to get up early for school.

Ichigo Kurosaki sat alone on the sofa, reflecting on the events of the day. What exactly was that terrifying monster? And that girl in black—she didn't seem like an ordinary soul at all. How strange! The things happening around him were getting stranger and stranger.

Never mind. It's best not to tell my family about this strange thing.

Thinking this, Ichigo Kurosaki was about to get up and return to his room when he suddenly saw a black butterfly appear at his window. The butterfly fluttered its wings and landed outside his window. Immediately afterward, a dark shadow silently descended.

It's that girl!

Ichigo Kurosaki recognized the girl with the onion-shaped haircut. She was very thin and petite, yet possessed a unique and unforgettable aura.

"Is this the place?" The girl opened the window as if no one else was there and walked into the Kurosaki house. She looked around.

Clearly, she had also noticed Ichigo Kurosaki. But she paid him no heed. Because she knew that ordinary mortals could neither see nor touch them. Even though he looked shocked, she remained unmoved.

"Hey, who are you?" Kurosaki Ichigo asked, realizing what was happening.

But the girl acted as if she hadn't heard him, searching back and forth between the rooms of the house. Finally, unable to bear it any longer, Kurosaki Ichigo raised his arm and slapped the girl hard on the forehead.

pat.

A sharp pain shot through the back of her head, and the girl's expression clearly showed surprise. She turned her head, staring blankly at Kurosaki Ichigo. "You...you can see me?"

"What nonsense are you talking about?" Kurosaki Ichigo's lips twitched. "What are you trying to do, barging into someone else's house like that?"

“So that’s how it is.” The girl seemed to suddenly realize something, and said, “The fact that you were able to find me proves that the spiritual power within you is not weak. And it is because of you that you attracted that void.”

"Hollow?" Ichigo Kurosaki blinked, bewildered. "What nonsense are you spouting?"

"You're in danger right now," the girl warned. "Other Void creatures might come after you, and then..." Before she could finish speaking, a terrifying roar suddenly came from outside the door.

"What, what is that?" Kurosaki Ichigo's eyes widened as he saw that terrifying masked monster again through the window. It was standing outside on the street, its cold gaze fixed on him.

Chapter 0515 The Power of Death

"It is a Void." The girl pressed her left hand against the scabbard of the sword hanging at her waist and said softly, "It is a mask formed by the X-shaped face of a dead human whose soul has fallen. It feeds on human souls and is an existence on a completely evil level."

"This thing is here because of me?!" Kurosaki Ichigo was shocked, his face showing an expression of disbelief.

"Perhaps it's because of your family." The girl turned around and said, "Since you possess powerful spiritual energy, there must be someone in your family who does as well."

At that moment, Ichigo Kurosaki thought of his younger siblings. They also possessed the ability to see souls, meaning they were also targets of this Hollow?

"Damn it!" Ichigo Kurosaki's expression completely changed. Family was his Achilles' heel. He absolutely could not let this monster succeed!

"Quiet down!" The girl turned her head to look at him and said, "Next, it's my job. Binding Spell One: Seal!"

Swish.

An invisible force bound Ichigo Kurosaki. It was like a shackle, firmly imprisoning his entire body.

"What, what have you done? Let me go!" Ichigo Kurosaki struggled desperately. But with a human body, it was almost impossible to break free from the Kido.

Therefore, in the girl's eyes, the other party was making a completely futile struggle. She merely glanced at him contemptuously and said, "Protecting humanity is our job. We don't need your involvement." With that, she flicked her sleeve and walked downstairs.

"Wait, who exactly are you?" Kurosaki Ichigo asked the crucial question.

"Death." The girl uttered these two words calmly, and she had already flown out of the window.

From Ichigo Kurosaki's perspective, he finally witnessed the clash between Shinigami and Hollows for the first time.

The girl's strength was considerable; among the Shinigami residing in the human world, she was already considered to have considerable combat power. However, the Hollow's power was equally formidable. Or rather, someone chosen by Aizen as a pawn to enlighten Ichigo Kurosaki was certainly not an ordinary character.

puff.

A muffled thud.

After a few rounds, the giant worm-like Hollow had its forelimbs severed by Rukia's sword. Rukia, due to carelessness, was also stabbed in the abdomen and collapsed to the ground, water gushing out.

Roar!

The futuristic creature let out a triumphant roar, opened its massive jaws, and lunged at Rukia.

"Damn it!" Upon seeing this, Kurosaki Ichigo was filled with shock and rage. He gathered all his strength in his arms and suddenly broke free from the bindings. He grabbed a folding stool from his living room and rushed out in a moment of impulsiveness.

Bang.

The folding stool struck Xu, sending sparks flying. Far from causing him any harm, the impact left Xu's arm throbbing.

"This guy actually broke through my Ghost Path?" The girl was shocked by the potential he displayed. This was definitely not something an ordinary human could do. This guy's spiritual power was beyond her imagination. Perhaps, he could finish off this Void before her?

Just as she had this thought, the Hollow was enraged by Ichigo Kurosaki's actions. It slowly raised its massive forelimbs and slammed them down.

Boom!

Ichigo Kurosaki was slammed into the wall, feeling as if his internal organs had shifted. Only his will to protect his family kept him going, preventing him from collapsing.

"Hey, your method won't work, kid." The girl spoke up as she watched Kurosaki Ichigo, who seemed about to charge forward again. "Ordinary human weapons have no effect on Hollows. They can't harm their essence."

"What do we do then?" Ichigo Kurosaki paused, a look of astonishment on his face. "Right, your sword..."

"A Shinigami's Zanpakuto can only unleash its full power when wielded by the wielder." The girl saw through his thoughts and said directly, "However, I have another way... I can transfer my spiritual power to you, making you a new Shinigami. You want to save your family, right?"

"Yes, that's right!" Just as Ichigo Kurosaki was speaking, the Hollows opposite them were getting closer and closer.

"Put this knife into your chest, and my spiritual power will transfer to you." The girl raised the blade in her hand and said softly, "Do you believe me?"

"Enough talk, let's begin!" Kurosaki Ichigo didn't hesitate for a moment, gripping the tip of the sword with both hands.

"Then, let's get to know each other again." The girl looked up and said seriously, "Kuchiki Rukia, the Shinigami."

"My name is Kurosaki Ichigo, and I am human."

"Good luck." Rukia said, pushing with her right hand and plunging her Zanpakuto into Ichigo Kurosaki's heart.

Boom!

A powerful spiritual pressure shot straight into the sky, and a terrifying flow of spiritual pressure was transmitted directly to the heavens.

With a massive blade slung over his shoulder and clad in Shinigami attire, Ichigo Kurosaki appeared at the very center of the spiritual pressure flow. Rukia, having lost all her spiritual power, stared at Ichigo with an expression of utter disbelief.

What an exaggerated spiritual pressure! What a terrifying Zanpakuto! And this 4.3 guy... actually absorbed all my spiritual power! What kind of monster did I just unleash?

"What a spectacular scene." From a high-rise building not far away, watching Kurosaki Ichigo in the center of the arena, Mugetsu wore a playful smile. "Is this what Shinigami transformation is like?"

"Hmph, as expected of my son." Kurosaki Isshin's face showed pride.

"Compared to Mugetsu, she's still a bit lacking." Kurosaki Masaki curled her lips and said, "Although she's a half-Queen, Mugetsu has even mastered the Silent Blood Suit." The subtext was that her Quincy bloodline was no less than that of a Shinigami.

"So what!" Kurosaki Isshin said, feigning toughness. "Isn't he our son too!"

Chapter 0516 New Students, A Battleground?

"Oh my god, we have a new transfer student in our class." On the stage, the homeroom teacher, Ochi Miyu, said with a grin, "Yes, he's from a big city like Kyoto."

"Really?"

"They're from big cities."

"Male and female?"

"Well, it doesn't matter."

The atmosphere in Class 1, Grade 1 of Karakura Town High School is perpetually listless. Every student seems lethargic and indifferent to their surroundings.

But actually, the classmates have a very good relationship. Although, like other schools, the class is divided into many factions, even students from different factions don't have any conflicts and generally get along very well.

Of course, there are also delinquents in this class. However, thanks to Wuyue's presence, the delinquents in this class are practically like well-behaved children. They not only don't extort classmates or bully the weak, but they also act like sensible young people, helping each other and treating each other with respect.

"Hey, what's with your reaction?!" Ochi Miyu was clearly fed up with the students' lethargy. She unleashed her volatile temper. "Normally, shouldn't we give new students a warm welcome?!"

"Ugh. Welcome and all that is too much trouble." As the most troublesome of the troublemakers, Wuyue immediately retorted.

"Kurosaki Mugetsu, you bastard!" Ochi Miyu glared at him angrily and said, "I haven't settled the score with you for lifting my skirt in the street last time!"

"What? There's such a story?"

"That guy Wuyue is really something else!"

"What a pervert! How dare he lay a hand on a teacher!"

Hearing the students' chatter, Kurosaki Ichigo covered his face, pretending not to recognize his younger brother at all.

"Ahem, teacher, let's get back to the main topic." Even with Wuyue's thick skin, trained to be thick-skinned, she couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed. What kind of teacher is this? How can she casually bring up such embarrassing history? Doesn't she know that girls should be reserved? "We are very happy to welcome the new students."

"Hmph!" Ochi Miyu snorted coldly, seemingly with a hint of smugness. She clapped her hands, and a petite figure with black hair appeared before everyone.

"Hello everyone, my name is Rukia Kuchiki. I'm a new transfer student." The girl gave a graceful bow and greeted everyone with a smile. "Nice to meet you!"

"Wait, wait... It's you!" Kurosaki Ichigo suddenly stood up, completely bewildered.

"Kurosaki Ichigo, is there anything you'd like to say?" Ochi Miyu asked, suppressing her anger and enunciating each word clearly.

"No, it's nothing." Kurosaki Ichigo suddenly felt a headache coming on and quickly sat back down in his chair.
