Death: Starting as the Guardian of Avici Hell

Upon seeing this, Gin Ichimaru slightly opened his eyes, revealing a look of anticipation.

Matsumoto Rangiku clenched her small hands tightly and began to fantasize about her Bankai.

At Naraku Sora's signal, Komamura Sajin released his Bankai and stood respectfully to the side, like the most loyal guard.

Next up is Gin Ichimaru.

As a genius teenager, his talent far surpasses that of the other Death Captains.

With no weaknesses in his four basic abilities—slashing, punching, walking, and ghosting—he is also very decisive and efficient in combat.

Before long, another terrifying spiritual pressure surged into the sky.

This once again attracted the attention of countless Grim Reapers.

Are the guys in the Shinigami Prison on some kind of superhuman adrenaline rush? How come they've all learned Bankai?

"It's my turn, it's my turn."

Matsumoto Rangiku excitedly stepped forward and swiftly pierced the Transcendent Body.

The gray cat exploded, sending countless grains of sand into a hurricane, and the sky instantly darkened.

Compared to the previous two matches, her battle seemed a bit more intense.

Fortunately, Matsumoto Rangiku's combat power was several times stronger than in the original timeline due to the Soul King fragment, so the process of defeating the Zanpakuto was not too turbulent.

When the third Bankai spiritual pressure erupted, the other Shinigami were completely numb.

Someone secretly did the math.

Suddenly, it was discovered that all the so-called captains of the new Gotei 13 had mastered Bankai.

Could it be that the new Captain-Commander Naraku is really going to replace Captain-Commander Yamamoto?!

The news that the three had mastered Bankai spread like wildfire, quickly stirring up another wave of infighting within Seireitei.

Even more extreme, in order to become stronger, he actually took the initiative to approach Kenpachi Zaraki of the Eleventh Division.

The reason given was that challenging the strong was the fastest way.

Of course, the outcome was also terrible.

Just as everything was thriving and flourishing, Aizen suddenly approached Naraku Sora, bringing unexpected news:

"Ku, I'm about to begin the ethereal transformation..."

Chapter 297 What kind of person do you take me for?

"It must be admitted that Kisuke Urahara may seem innocent, but he is not a decent person in reality."

Aizen remarked with some emotion.

"Since he joined the Hogyoku research project, he has proposed several optimization plans, and the corresponding progress can only be described as rapid."

"From this perspective, that guy probably had similar ideas a long time ago."

"However, due to the rules, I have not been able to put my thoughts into action."

It not only helped with blurring, but also with breaking face experiments.

Kisuke Urahara spends most of his time in Soul Society and lacks various related materials. Whenever he occasionally obtains a Hollow corpse, he treats it as a treasure and wishes he could break it into a hundred pieces to use.

Now completely aligned with Naraku Sora, he has arrived at Hueco Mundo and finally let himself go.

Even the extremely proud Szayelaporro had to acknowledge Kisuke Urahara's personal abilities.

At first, he was somewhat unconvinced by Kisuke Urahara.

He believed that with him and Aizen, Naraku no longer needed to rely on the wisdom of others.

However, after a period of contact, when Kisuke Urahara presented various experimental results and data, Szayelaporro was completely shocked.

If it weren't for the fact that it didn't fit his own public image, he would even have liked to have a drink with the other person.

Naraku Sora nodded in agreement.

Despite having dark circles under her eyes all day, she doesn't actually work more than three hours a day.

Kisuke Urahara thought he was incredibly clever and had fooled everyone, but in reality, everything was under his control.

He wrote down all these accounts one by one.

When they feel like exploiting and squeezing Kisuke, they'll take out their little notebook and smear him with garlic.

He has participated in virtualization experiments more than once.

When a Shinigami first achieves Hollowfication, he displays a more terrifying power than usual.

Furthermore, it will temporarily lose its rationality and attack any target within its line of sight.

However, we can't just leave this situation unattended.

It is necessary to collect relevant data and control the scope of its damage.

Moreover, if it is not suppressed, Hollowfied Shinigami will commit suicide to some extent, which is quite dangerous.

The slightest misstep could lead to complete collapse.

Naraku Sora could be indifferent to the other test subjects, but as Aizen's close friend, he absolutely could not let him go unpunished.

This is precisely why Aizen came to find him.

They trust each other so much that they have developed an unspoken understanding.

"The reason I brought up the Hollowfication experiment at this time is not only because the Hogyoku is nearing perfection, but also because I need to rely on the strength of the new Gotei 13."

Aizen looked serious.

Upon hearing this, Naraku Sora chuckled.

"Sousuke, you're not so arrogant as to disregard me, are you?"

"Even if I have to carry the burden of Las Noches and lift up the Hollowfied Aizen with one hand, I, Sora, am still invincible in the world."

Although his spiritual pressure was not as strong as his, Naraku Sora was not really afraid of him.

What truly frightens him is Aizen in his rational state, not a beast acting purely on instinct.

This version of Aizen is at best a smaller version of Yamamoto, and his destructive power is even slightly weaker.

It's not worth mentioning at all.

Seemingly sensing someone's thoughts, Aizen took a deep breath, silently making a mental note of that person, and then explained:

"In my opinion, the new Gotei 13, like the Arrancar, are all loyal to you."

"They've just mastered Bankai and need a powerful enemy to boost their cohesion and get used to their abilities."

"At the same time, we can also take this opportunity to reveal some things to them."

"So that the new Gotei 13 will understand one thing: their loyalty is not to the so-called Soul Society, but to—you!"

Naraku Sora stroked his chin: "Isn't this a bit too much of a sacrifice for you?"

“If a gentle and refined scholar suddenly turns into a beast, his reputation will be affected.”

Aizen: "..."

My blood pressure suddenly spiked.

If you don't mention the document dragon, we can still be good friends.

"I don't care what other people think."

Aizen said calmly, "Besides, their attitude towards me depends entirely on you."

Upon hearing this, Naraku clapped his hands and sighed softly:

"good."

…………

"It's time to reveal some secrets to you."

In the dimly lit room, candles burned softly, their flickering flames occasionally illuminating solemn faces.

The beast crouched in the corner, sharpening its claws and teeth, as if ready to tear its enemy's throat at any moment.

Hidden in the shadows, the dark-skinned Dongxian sensed the heavy atmosphere and seemed to have guessed something. He immediately said in a deep voice:

"Lord Naraku, you must think carefully before you do something. Once you start, there's no turning back. Besides, the captains of the Gotei 13 are all very strong, except for a very few."

"Furthermore, Captain-Commander Yamamoto's strength..."

Rangiku, standing nearby, grinned, looking like she was eager for chaos, and excitedly shouted to the figure at the front:

"Sora, are you going to make a move against Captain-Commander Yamamoto?"

"?"

Hearing their words, Naraku was furious:

"You bastards, what do you take me for?"

“I respect the old man of that mountain as my teacher, and the concept of filial piety is etched into my bones. How could I be the kind of person who is disobedient and unfilial?”

Mayuri Kurotsuchi smiled but didn't say anything.

Kisuke Urahara didn't care about any of that and laughed loudly, ruining the atmosphere that had been carefully built up.

Then someone quickly grabbed him by the neck, making him make an embarrassing sound.

After a period of playful fighting, Naraku Sora released Urahara Kisuke, whose eyes were dark and swollen, coughed twice, and returned to the main topic:

"You are my most trusted subordinates."

"It is precisely because of this trust that I made this decision."

Upon hearing this, everyone's expressions varied, but no one said anything, and the room immediately fell silent.

"Now, I need you to do something."

“Unlike the previous Transcendent Body, this time it will not be of any help to you, and may even be life-threatening.”

"If anyone wants to quit, they can let me know in advance, and I won't blame them."
