Death: Starting as the Guardian of Avici Hell

After giving Naraku a severe dressing down, Yamamoto took a few deep breaths to calm down, and then a hint of helplessness flashed in his eyes.

This kid is really daring.

Isn't he afraid that the Soul Society will fall into chaos as a result?

Despite the horrific scene before him, for some reason, Yamamoto felt no sadness whatsoever.

There wasn't even a hint of anger.

It's important to understand that the 46 Chambers represent the highest level of justice in Soul Society. Their orders must be obeyed not only by the Gotei 13, but also by nobles who cannot openly disobey them.

In the past, he would have already been furious, his anger spreading throughout the Soul Society.

Could it be that I've already been assimilated by some bastard?

Forget it.

Since things have come to this, let's first prepare for the funeral arrangements for Room 46.

"Issue my order to notify the Commander-in-Chief of the Covert Mobile Force and the Captain of the Fourth Division to come and investigate the cause of death of the 46th Division."

The members of the Riting team bowed respectfully, activated Shunpo, and instantly disappeared from their original positions.

…………

Naraku left the First Division and headed straight for the main battlefield of the Twelfth Division.

What came into view was an extremely chaotic battle.

Everyone fought their own battles, dividing the battlefield. The chaotic spiritual pressure, like a tidal wave, continuously washed over the ruins, stirring up clouds of dust.

Although the captains of the Gotei 13 have the upper hand overall, they are clones after all, and the difference between them is not significant, so the situation is still unclear.

Looking at those almost identical faces, Naraku Sora suddenly had a bold idea.

If we can persuade these people to surrender, wouldn't the Gotei 13's power increase dramatically?

So he forcefully barged into the battlefield between the two Jushiro Ukitakes, violently separating the two who were locked in combat, and then turned his gaze toward Reikai.

"I'll give you a chance. If you choose to surrender, I can spare your life."

Linghai Fuzhu wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, his expression sinister: "Only one of the original and the copy can exist. If you're willing to let me..."

"Okay, no need to say anything more, I understand."

Naraku Sora interrupted the other person's speech with a blank expression.

The spirit remains are indeed very useful.

They are incredibly powerful, fearless, and even capable of resurrection.

But if the price of their existence is the disappearance of those they know, then there's no room for negotiation.

He still prefers to be with living people rather than puppets created by others.

"Ha, I knew it."

Linghai Fuzhu's face turned fierce. Taking advantage of Naraku's moment of thought, he unleashed an astonishing speed, slashing at Naraku's vital points with his twin swords at extremely strange angles.

Ukitake, who was standing behind, noticed this scene and his expression changed slightly. He was about to speak up to remind him when he found that Naraku was faster than him.

"too slow."

Naraku Sora drew his Zanpakuto and stepped forward, Tang Zhu.

A dark sword pressure flashed by, and Linghai Fuzhu's body froze on the spot, his expression instantly frozen, as if time had been stopped.

The next second, blood gushed out like a fountain.

Looking at his fallen "self," Ukitake's expression was somewhat subtle.

After the battle just now, he was 100% certain that Linghai's strength was not much worse than his own.

Yet even such a powerful enemy couldn't withstand a single blow from Naraku.

Does that mean that if I were to face my junior brother, I would also be instantly killed?

Ukitake couldn't help but fall into deep thought.

While the spirits were being held back by the Death Captains, Naraku unleashed an overwhelming wave of suppression, ruthlessly sweeping away the remaining spirits before turning and leaving the rest to the captains present.

…………

Rukongai (the town of souls).

It has been proven that people often unleash amazing potential when faced with the threat of death.

Having witnessed Naraku's terrifying battlefield dominance, Shadow Wolf Sasuke completely abandoned the audacious idea of ​​competing against that monster.

He swore he had never run so fast in his life.

Even so, the intense, suffocating chill still clung tightly to him.

It was as if they had never escaped the other party's control from beginning to end.

Who is it?

Suddenly, an image of a brown-haired young man popped into Shadow Wolf's mind, his gentle smile seemingly unaffected by the outside world.

He remained calm and composed throughout, even when facing the spirit body Yamamoto.

Damn it, how could a mere vice-captain be so powerful?!

Thinking back to the scene in the laboratory when he was completely suppressed by Aizen, Kagerou Sasuke almost gritted his teeth to pieces.

Just then, a figure suddenly appeared in front of them.

After seeing the other person's appearance clearly, Shadow Wolf felt a strong surge of jealousy and hatred, and immediately began to wield his sword, preparing to unleash a fierce attack.

Seeing Shadow Wolf Sasuke charging towards him, Aizen's lips curled up, and his gaze lowered slightly.

next second.

An extremely terrifying spiritual pressure erupted from his body.

The air emitted a mournful cry of unbearable strain, and the high-density spiritual particles even formed visible twisted lines, scattered to the left and right.

Shadow Wolf Zuo's expression changed drastically as he charged forward. Before he could even open his mouth, he crashed heavily to the ground, creating a deep crater and raising a tremendous dust wave.

The mastermind behind the Spirit Remains Project clung tightly to the deep pit, his eyes filled with horror.

At this moment, he had only one thought in his mind—

Is that... Aizen's spiritual pressure?!

Chapter 323 Our Enemy Is Everywhere

When Naraku arrived following the remaining traces, Inaba Kagerouza was already foaming at the mouth and had lost his ability to think under the immense pressure of the ultimate spiritual pressure.

Previously in the laboratory, considering the presence of other Shinigami nearby, I was unable to fully unleash my spiritual pressure.

Now that they've arrived in Rukongai, these concerns are no longer an issue.

However, Inaba Kagerousa found it somewhat difficult to accept.

He fainted partly because of the spiritual pressure and partly because he was angry.

I originally thought he was only slightly inferior to Aizen, so those sarcastic remarks could be taken as a researcher's jealousy of a scientist.

But when Sasuke realized that he was no match for Aizen in any aspect—

Their long-held pride crumbled completely, and their worldview was severely impacted.

Naraku Sora approached Aizen, but just as he was about to speak, he suddenly remembered something, and his expression immediately darkened.

"Sousuke, we've been caught red-handed."

Upon hearing this, Aizen, who was about to release the Binding Spell Barrier to seal away Shadow Wolf Sasuke, paused and looked up:

"Commander-in-Chief Yamamoto already knows?"

Naraku Sora nodded:

"Although the teacher occasionally suffers from dementia, he is mostly normal. He guessed that the matter was related to me just by looking at the intelligence."

"Now that old man wants to settle scores with me, Sousuke, what can you do about it?"

Aizen remained calm and composed, saying, "Thank you for your hard work."

Nai Luo Kong: "?"

I took the blame for you, and all I got in return was a "thank you for your hard work"?

You've completely lost your conscience, haven't you!

Seemingly sensing someone's thoughts, Aizen sighed and explained helplessly:

"The fact that you're standing here means that the commander-in-chief has tacitly approved of this."

"Since there's no reason to pursue it, what's there to dwell on?"

Naraku Sora grinned and stated his conditions:

"Of course, if there's a next time, please be sure to call me."

"I did nothing wrong, yet I'm being forced to take the blame. That's against my principles."

Aizen stared at him for a few seconds, then nodded.

"I see."

That's what they say, but when the time comes, it will be a different story no matter what you do.

Besides, the Forty-Six Chambers and the nobles aren't like leeks in a field; they can't just sprout up whenever they want.

Based on his understanding of the efficiency of Soul Society, he knew that for at least a long time to come, the responsibilities of the highest judicial body would fall on the shoulders of the Gotei 13.

This guy might have to take on part of the responsibility.

but.

It's truly wonderful to have a like-minded friend to walk alongside you on a path destined to be lonely.

Aizen skillfully sealed Inaba's Shadow Wolf, a slight smile playing on his lips.

Rukongai, the secret laboratory.
