I, Yhwach, join the chat group

"please wait for a moment."

"What else do you want to say?"

The Knight King paused for a moment, then said, "Actually, I have a companion! Like me, he's from outside Japan. His strength far surpasses mine. Since you have two vacant captain positions, why not let me contact him and have him participate in the assessment?"

"what?"

Everyone was slightly shocked. They knew a little bit about the Knight King's strength. He was definitely at the captain level. And the other companion was far superior to the Knight King?

"Who is he?"

Yamamoto Genryusai's eyes flashed and he asked in a deep voice.

Currently, Soul Society is in urgent need of powerful combat power. He even agreed to let the Knight King take the test, so it is not impossible for him to have a so-called companion.

In order to deal with the terrifyingly powerful fantasy monster, this was a helpless decision.

Hearing this, the Knight King smiled slightly, stretched out his hand and waved it, and suddenly, golden spiritual pressure drew the image of a person in the air.

Seeing this, Kyoraku Shunsui's eyes fixed, and he was shocked: "Such a precise spiritual pressure control ability..."

Then he could see the person in the portrait clearly.

"His name is Gilgamesh...the Hero King!"

Chapter 84 The Invisible Empire in the Shadows

[This was the third update yesterday ~ I went to celebrate my birthday in the afternoon, so I'll definitely update six more today. I won't go to bed until I finish this!]

……

"His name is Gilgamesh...the Hero King!"

Gilgamesh, the Hero King.

Hearing this name, Yamamoto Genryusai's expression changed slightly.

Kyoraku Shunsui even blurted out, "Impossible! This is just a myth!"

Arthur, the Knight King, is a historical figure whose existence can be verified. But Gilgamesh, the legendary hero king, is not even considered a human being, but a demigod. How could such a character exist?

"What's the matter?" Soi-Fong couldn't help but ask, "Who is Gilgamesh? Captain Kyoraku, you seem to know something about him?"

"I know……"

Kyoraku Shunsui stared deeply at the Knight King and said in a deep voice, "After learning of the existence of Hero King Arthur, I looked up a lot of information, including information about Gilgamesh."

Gilgamesh, the legendary king of Uruk, ruler of the ancient Mesopotamia region and the city-state of the Sumerian dynasty, is described in the Epic of Gilgamesh, the world's oldest known narrative poem.

Around 3500 BC, the earliest city-state civilization was born in Sumer in the lower reaches of the Mesopotamian River Basin, with Uruk as its representative city.

Gilgamesh is the King of Uruk!

"3500 BC!?" Broken Bee's eyes widened in disbelief. "Are those people from 5500 years ago? How is that possible?"

"That's not how it's calculated..."

Kyoraku Shunsui opened his mouth, wanting to correct the number 5500, but there seemed to be no need to do so, as it was all myth and legend anyway.

"Legend has it that Gilgamesh possesses godhood, a being almost godlike...Knight King, are you telling me that your companion is Gilgamesh?"

"Surprised?"

The Knight King chuckled and said, "If I told you that Alexander the Conqueror, Nero the Tyrant, Ramses II the King of Kings, Charles the Lionheart, and so on, all existed, what would you think?"

Of course, it does exist, but it is not in this world.

Kyoraku Shunsui didn't know and was frightened for a moment.

Are there many people like the Knight King outside of Japan?

At this time, Yamamoto Genryusai raised his hand to stop everyone from asking further questions.

"Who is your companion? Let's put that aside for now. You said he's very strong?"

"Yes, very strong, much stronger than me."

The Knight King estimated that with his current combat power that was about to break through four stars, coupled with the Bankai of the Twelve Knights of the Round Table and the Sword of Promised Victory, he was afraid that he would not be able to defeat the King of Heroes.

"How does he compare to Emperor Qin?" Yamamoto Genryūsai asked.

“There’s no comparison!”

Hearing this, the Knight King shook his head and said, "What you have seen of the Qin Emperor is only the tip of the iceberg of his strength. No matter how powerful the Hero King is, he is no match for the Qin Emperor. Not to mention a Hero King alone, even if all those people I just mentioned were counted together, they would not be a match for the Qin Emperor."

After a pause, he continued, "Your understanding of the Qin Emperor is too superficial. A Lord-class warrior is powerful enough, right? Even four or five of you captains might not be able to defeat a single Lord. However... even ten Lord-class warriors might not last more than ten minutes in the hands of the Qin Emperor!"

Hearing this, many captains fell silent.

They had never witnessed the power of the Qin Emperor, but from his words they could tell that his existence had surpassed common sense.

Only Yamamoto Genryusai had a gloomy expression and did not speak for a long time.

He had faced it personally, so he could barely understand its meaning.

"I see."

After a while, Yamamoto Genryusai spoke in a deep voice, "You can contact the King of Heroes, but that will have to happen after you pass the captain's exam. His background is even more bizarre than yours, so he can't take the captain's exam for now."

"no problem."

The Knight King said nonchalantly.

"Then your assessment will be held tomorrow at noon. Disbanded!"

……

At the same time as the captain's meeting was taking place, in a corner of Seireitei, two people walked in the shadow of a building.

This place is close to the center of Seireitei and is surrounded by tall white buildings, just like the skyscrapers in the real world.

"Captain Aizen, we've been searching around Seireitei for three days..."

Ulquiorra finally couldn't help but speak and asked, "What are you looking for?"

"Entrance."

Aizen's phantom whispered, "Among the shadows that can be seen everywhere in Seireitei, there exists an organization, or perhaps an empire."

"What?" Ulquiorra was stunned.

"It doesn't matter if you don't understand. You will see it soon."

Aizen's phantom form stepped into the shadows, his gaze searching, as if there was something mysterious within the shadows...

After the chaos three days ago, he had been hiding his tracks and had traveled almost all over the Soul Society.

"found it."

Suddenly, he stopped and said with a smile: "There is a special spiritual particle fluctuation here."

"Ok?"

Ulquiorra frowned slightly and followed the gaze, but could only see a shadow.

"Don't worry about it. This isn't the entrance. There's no such thing as a door."

The phantom Aizen said: "The Invisible Empire only exists in a spiritual space, and this space is hidden in the shadows."

As he spoke, he drew his Zanpakutō and swung it out.

In an instant, the space was cut, and a crack appeared in the shadows. Inside the crack, a huge ice palace could be seen.

"Let's go to the Invisible Empire and meet their Majesty."

After putting away the blade, Aizen stepped into it.

Seeing this, Ulquiorra didn't hesitate and immediately followed.

To him, Lord Aizen's orders were absolute, and all he had to do was follow them.

After the two stepped in, the crack quickly disappeared. Because Aizen was hiding his spiritual pressure, no one, the God of Death, could detect it.

At the same time as the two entered, many people in the Ice Palace felt the breath of Death and Hollow for the first time.

"what?!"

"Someone's coming in!"

"It's the breath of the god of death! Is this spiritual pressure... captain-level?"

boom! !

Amidst this shocked conversation, a huge spiritual pressure instantly enveloped the entire Ice Palace.

In an instant, almost everyone in the Invisible Empire sensed the invaders.

At the same time, in a dark, empty room, at the end of an invisible staircase, a sleeping man slightly opened one eye.

"Hasward."

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

"There are guests. I am still asleep. It is not the right time yet. You go and receive them."

The man in the black robe had a hoarse voice. He didn't say a word at all, but his will was directly projected into the mind of a blond man.

"He has no future. He is unpredictable."

After saying this again, the man in black robe fell into silence again, as if he had never woken up.

In another palace, the blond man slowly stood up and said to the person next to him.

"Follow me to welcome the guests from the empire!"

Chapter 85 Let Yhwach Speak Out

[I fell asleep yesterday and slept until 7am the next day... Shit, I woke up right away to start writing. I'm used to the three-update rhythm, but suddenly it feels like six is ​​going to be a real challenge. My brain can't handle it... I'm definitely going to write six today. If I don't, I'll be damned!]

……

The lepton space where the Invisible Empire is located has a gray sky.

Under the sky was a magnificent ice palace. When Aizen and the other two invaded from the crack in the sky, dozens of Quincies in white robes emerged from the palace.

"This is... a Quincy?"

Ulquiorra followed behind the phantom Aizen and couldn't help but say in surprise when he saw this scene.
