I Am a Heroic Spirit

Jinta swung his massive iron rod, knocking down a group of Hollows. Wuling Tessai also used his fists to smash the Hollows.

"Kurosaki-san, Arisawa-san, we are here to support you!" Urahara Kisuke fanned himself and walked out of the path opened by Gyouryo Tessai, Hanakari Jinta and Yasumi with a wicked smile on his face.

"Clog hat?" Ichigo Kurosaki looked at Kisuke Urahara in surprise. He was not unfamiliar with Kisuke Urahara. It was Rukia Kuchiki who took him to Urahara Kisuke's store to buy Gikonmaru. But he didn't expect that Kisuke Urahara, who had always been a profiteer, and his several shop assistants had such powerful power.

"Leave the minions to us, Mr. Kurosaki, Ms. Arisawa, and this Quincy. In order to allow you to concentrate on dealing with that guy...ah~~it seems there is no time for nonsense." Urahara Kisuke stopped talking and turned his head to look into the distance. While Urahara Kisuke was speaking, the Killian in the sky had completely opened the black cavity, and its huge body appeared in the world. Most of the second Killian had also come out.

"No! Ryuki, Ichigo, don't be impulsive. That guy is a Hollow, you can't deal with him." Hearing that Urahara Kisuke wanted Arisawa Ryuki and Kurosaki Ichigo to take action, Kuchiki Rukia hurriedly said loudly.

"Hollow? It's indeed ridiculously large." Ishida Uryu said in a heavy voice, looking at the Hollow in the distance.

"The Great Hollow is a giant Hollow formed by the mixture of hundreds of Hollows. It is extremely powerful. According to the information, it is under the jurisdiction of royal spies and cannot be dealt with by ordinary Shinigami. It takes a Shinigami at the vice-captain level to defeat it. A month ago, Rukia and I teamed up to deal with an evil spirit whose strength was close to that of the Great Hollow, but we were defeated miserably in the end." Arisawa Ryuki said solemnly.

Her body was relaxing, her breathing became steady, and she was recovering the spiritual and physical energy she had consumed as quickly as possible.

"It's really impressive. With such a large body, a writer like me would probably be killed in one encounter."

A strange tone sounded, and everyone looked in the direction of the sound, only to see that the middle-aged man and the warrior had come rushing over. The middle-aged man had brown hair, a beard, and was wearing a clean green suit, with the demeanor of a British gentleman.

The samurai has a long dark blue ponytail, holds a 2m long samurai sword with a purple scabbard, and wears a lavender kimono. He exudes an elegant temperament whether he walks, sits or lies down.

"Who are you?" Ichigo Kurosaki, who was about to rush forward, stopped and asked the newcomers in confusion.

"Is he a person with special abilities from outside? Or a god of death? He doesn't seem like it." Ishida Uryu looked at the person who came, puzzled.

"It should be a Heroic Spirit. A Heroic Spirit is the only existence that is similar to but different from the God of Death." Arisawa Ryuki guessed.

"That's right, we are the beings called heroic spirits." The middle-aged man said proudly.

"Well, two Heroic Spirits, would you mind telling us your identities?" Urahara Kisuke's voice came from behind the fan that was covering his mouth.

"When asking for someone's name, shouldn't you give your own name first? Or is it that the etiquette here in Japan is different?" The middle-aged man had a fake smile on his face and looked at Urahara Kisuke with sparkling eyes.

"Ah, yes, although there are some differences in etiquette, it's not wrong to introduce yourself before asking for someone else's name." Urahara Kisuke's fake smile was devoid of sincerity, and it was obvious that he was even more pretentious than the middle-aged man. "I'm Urahara Kisuke, an ordinary businessman."

"An ordinary businessman?" The middle-aged man's smile was tinged with malice. "He's one of the top three captains in Soul Society. He was once the captain of the 12th Division of the Gotei 13 and the first director of the Technical Development Bureau. He actually calls himself an ordinary businessman. This is the most ridiculous thing I've heard since I arrived."

"what?!"

Rukia Kuchiki looked at Kisuke Urahara in surprise and doubt. It was completely unexpected that this profiteer was actually a big shot like the captain!

"The legendary captain? Just this wooden clog hat?" Ichigo Kurosaki pointed at Kisuke Urahara in disbelief.

"I'm really sorry to disappoint you. I, a man wearing clogs and a hat, was once a captain." Urahara Kisuke's expression remained unchanged, and he still spoke in that lazy tone, as if they hadn't heard anything just now.

"I have already given my name. What about you? Or rather, you are the kind of Heroic Spirit who died in a special way and cannot give your name." Urahara Kisuke looked at the middle-aged man.

"There is nothing that cannot be said, Caster, Shakespeare. I am here to tell you a wonderful story." Shakespeare finally gave his name.

"Mr. Shakespeare! Nice to meet you, I'm your fan." When he heard Shakespeare's name, Kurosaki Ichigo's eyes lit up. He walked quickly towards Shakespeare and greeted him respectfully.

"Are you my fan? That means you have read many of my works." Shakespeare asked with a smile.

"Yes, whether it's the tragedies Romeo and Juliet, Macbeth, King Lear, Hamlet, Othello, or the comedies The Accidental, As You Like It, As We All Know, and A Midsummer Night's Dream, I've seen them all. I've also seen historical dramas..." Ichigo Kurosaki paused and a conflicted look on his face.

"What do you want to say? Please feel free to say it." Shakespeare said with a smile.

Urahara Kisuke's face was thoughtful, but soon a look of gloating flashed across it. He already knew what Kurosaki Ichigo was worried about. The last time a Heroic Spirit appeared was Vlad III, who was vilified by the British Bram Stoker. This time, the Heroic Spirit was directly the British Shakespeare who vilified Joan of Arc. It was really interesting. Could the British Heroic Spirit save Shakespeare from the French and Christian Heroic Spirits? This was a question worth studying...

"Regarding your Henry VI, I cannot agree with the description of Joan of Arc in it." Ichigo Kurosaki said with a frown. Although he was an admirer of Shakespeare, he could not agree with Shakespeare on this point.

"You are talking about that. Don't worry about it. It was just a little trick to attract the audience at that time." Shakespeare said indifferently.

"Then have you ever thought about how to face the French and Christian heroes who are angered by your little tricks?" Urahara Kisuke asked gloatingly.

Shakespeare was choked up all of a sudden. He knew in his heart that if the French and Christian heroes attacked him because of this matter, he would not even be able to find allies. Even the heroes from the same Ying country would not be willing to help him.

"Hey, warrior, it's your turn to introduce yourself." Shakespeare changed the subject very abruptly.

"I am just a samurai named Sasaki Kojiro." When Shakespeare mentioned himself, Sasaki Kojiro chuckled and spoke.

"It's so well-known!" Rukia Kuchiki exclaimed. She didn't know Shakespeare, but she knew the name of Sasaki Kojiro.

"Now is not the time for idle chat, everyone. Those two Hollows cannot be easily dismissed." Sasaki Kojiro nodded politely to Kuchiki Rukia, then said.

"Indeed, those two guys are too big. Even a great swordsman would find it difficult to deal with them. We have to think of a way." Arisawa Ryuki said with a frown. Against such a behemoth, ordinary attacks would be of no use, not to mention a knife as thin as Sasaki Kojiro's.

"Think of a plan? No! There's no need to think of any battle plan when dealing with a monster like this. When dealing with a guy like this, all you need to do is chop him. Chop him with all your might."

Ichigo Kurosaki lifts a huge dish

Chapter 230: Battle against Killian

"How could that be?" Urahara Kisuke raised his hand, gently extended two fingers and pointed at Kuchiki Rukia, and Kuchiki Rukia's body became unable to move.

"This is... the way to bind!" Kuchiki Rukia's pupils suddenly shrank. She could bind herself without chanting any spells or even any spiritual words.

"But please just watch. This battle is absolutely necessary." Urahara Kisuke's casual demeanor vanished, replaced by seriousness and caution. "Whether it's for Miss Kuchiki, or for Kurosaki-san and Arisawa-san, they'll be fine. Even if I disregard everything else, I have to consider Zhang Luosang's feelings."

"Do you want to train those three kids? But isn't it a bit too much? Those two big guys are not easy to deal with. Even for me, if I don't use that secret sword, I will have to spend a little effort." Sasaki Kojiro did not set out to exorcise the demons immediately, but frowned slightly and asked Urahara Kisuke.

"I know, but this is necessary," Urahara Kisuke said solemnly, his eyes fixed on Killian in the distance. "Since you know my identity, you should also have some understanding of Soul Society. Don't you notice anything wrong with the current situation?"

Urahara Kisuke's words hinted at something else. Rukia Kuchiki's face suddenly changed as her mind raced. Indeed! This situation was completely out of character.

Sasaki Kojiro thought for three seconds, then said with understanding, "Something must have gone wrong in Soul Society, or perhaps something went wrong in Karakura Town. Soul Society hasn't discovered that Karakura Town has been invaded by Hueco Mundo yet. Otherwise, the Third, Fifth, Twelfth, and Thirteenth Divisions would have already arrived in the human world by now."

Although Sasaki Kojiro has no good feelings towards Soul Society due to Zhang Luo's setting of his own memories, he still understands one thing: Soul Society takes it as its mission to eliminate the Hollows and considers itself the army of justice, so no matter what the reason, they will never allow the real world to be invaded by the 31st circle of Hollows and sit idly by.

Rukia Kuchiki's face turned pale. No matter why Soul Society had not received the news yet, there were more than just her stationed in the real world. The surrounding cities were all guarded by Soul Society's 13th Division Shinigami. At the latest by tonight, Soul Society would discover the situation in the real world, and the things she had concealed for so long would also be discovered.

For a moment, Kuchiki Rukia was overwhelmed with thoughts and her heart was in a mess. She no longer cared about Urahara Kisuke's purpose.

Ichigo Kurosaki and Ryuki Arisawa each took one of the two Killians, jumped from under their feet onto Killians' legs, and swung their swords to chop them down hard.

However, the Hollow was not a puppet and would not allow them to attack. He kicked him out directly. Ichigo Kurosaki wanted to fight Killian head-on, but was kicked away and fell to the ground, unable to get up for a long time.

"Aoki's Note protects me!"

With the lesson of Kurosaki Ichigo, Arisawa Ryuki naturally would not try to stop the enemy with his bare hands. He used local materials, brushed off the green grass that had previously stained his body, chanted a spell, and used the green color to build a green shield on his body surface strong enough to rebound the revolver siege shotgun mounted on the armor.

At this time, Killian's attack had also arrived. Ryuki Arisawa, who had taken off into the air, had no chance to dodge and was kicked directly by Killian. With a heavy muffled sound, Ryuki Arisawa used the force to flip over and landed perfectly on the ground. However, the blue shield that was heavy enough to rebound the revolver siege shotgun mounted on the armor had been shattered by Killian's power.

"disease!"

Ishida Uryu pulled the bowstring of the spirit bow Arc Bird, and several blue spirit arrows shot at Killian's mask. The spirit arrows, which could be used to deal with ordinary Hollows in one blow, could only leave a few white dots on Killian's mask. For Killian, this little force was even weaker than a tickle.

"Damn it, Kurosaki, can you still stand up?" Ishida Uryu glanced at Arisawa Ryuki, and seeing that Arisawa Ryuki was fine, he looked at Kurosaki Ichigo and asked loudly.

"Oh, it's nothing." Ichigo Kurosaki turned his head and spoke as if nothing had happened, but the blood on his forehead did not seem to indicate that he was fine.

"What are you thinking about? How are you going to defeat them using the same trick you used before?" asked Uryu Ishida.

"No, I want to chop from bottom to top. Finally the head should fall down and I can chop it off." said Ichigo Kurosaki.

"How stupid! How could this possibly succeed? It would be better to climb onto Killian's head and break his mask. That's Killian's weakness." Arisawa Ryuki scolded Kurosaki Ichigo.

"That's right, you want to play brick-breaking? It doesn't seem like a good idea at all," Ishida Uryuya complained, "Really, I can't imagine what your head is made of! Get up, let's make a new battle plan!"

As he was speaking, Ishida Uryu reached out and grabbed Kurosaki Ichigo's Soul-Slaying Sword, intending to pull Kurosaki Ichigo up. At this moment, something strange happened. The Spirit Bow Arc Bird rapidly grew larger, and a blue spiritual light shone on it. In the blink of an eye, it became twice as long as before. Ishida Uryu opened his mouth in surprise: "Ah? This is... power pouring in. Is it Kurosaki's power?"

Ishida Uryu muttered to himself, but neither Arisawa Ryuki nor Kurosaki Ichigo noticed this and continued arguing.

"It's better to use my method. Find a way to rush over Killian's head and break his mask. That'll win."

"Are you kidding me?! Do you think that thing will just sit there and wait for you to get on top of it?"

"That creature is so big, it must move very slowly. Even if it wanted to stop me, it wouldn't be fast enough."

"Did you think that kick it just now was slow?"

"That's because I'm in the air."

"So? You're planning on crawling up on Killian's body instead of jumping? That's pretty safe."

……

"Kurosaki!" Ishida Uryu suddenly shouted while the two were arguing.

"What?" Kurosaki Ichigo turned his head and was frightened by Ishida Uryu's spiritual bow, "Ah! What's going on? How did your bow become so big!"

"Don't worry about it. Listen to me, maybe we can really destroy them." Ishida Uryu said very quickly.

"what?"

"Do you have a solution?"

Kurosaki Ichigo and Arisawa Ryuki asked together.

Another place when Uryu Ishida talked about and practiced his method.

"Finally, there's a big scene. Xiaolin, you can notify the TV station to hype it up." Yoko Okino looked at the two giant monsters and gave the order excitedly.

"I've already reported it, but there are three heroic spirits over there. Can we compete with other TV stations?" The assistant asked Yoko Okino while sending a text message to the TV station.

"Of course not. They have Heroic Spirits, and we have them too. Besides, the scenes of Ultraman fighting monsters have been popular for so many years. Even if it's just for nostalgia, there will be many people watching our TV station's live broadcast." Yoko Okino said confidently.

At this time, the driver spoke up, like pouring cold water on Yoko Okino, asking: "But, Ms. Yoko, can the camera really capture evil spirits? Those are real ghosts!"

The driver was half an insider, so he naturally knew about the supernatural shows that had been filmed before, but those who pretended to be ghosts and played tricks would naturally be filmed, but this time it was a real ghost.

"Do you think all those supernatural shows were fake? They say they were fake, but they're actually trying to deceive you, the uninformed," Yoko Okino said with a proud smile. "According to our research, ordinary people can't see ghosts with their naked eyes. Instead, it's technological gadgets like cameras and video cameras that can capture ghosts."

You are so brave! You city people really know how to have fun.

The driver couldn't help but complain in his heart.

Not far from the hill, Sasaki Kojiro, Shakespeare, and Urahara Kisuke also started talking.

"Are you sure we don't need to take action? Those two Killians are more than those three kids can handle," Sasaki Kojiro asked worriedly. "They're too big, and their magic power is much stronger than that of ordinary third-rate Heroic Spirits. Their size alone is enough to overwhelm most third-rate Heroic Spirits."

"Only when facing a strong enemy can one unleash their full potential," Urahara Kisuke expressed his thoughts and considerations with a rare calm demeanor. "I'm not worried about Arisawa-san, but Kurosaki-san's potential is enormous. If it's not unleashed, it's the same as having nothing. Such a weak Kurosaki-san will be crushed like an ant."

"Isn't it to tell Soul Society that Kurosaki-san is not just an ant that can be easily crushed to death?" Shakespeare asked.

"At least Soul Society won't issue an execution order without even considering it." Urahara Kisuke said in a deep voice.

Rukia Kuchiki also reacted. If Ichigo Kurosaki showed enough ability, Soul Society might bypass him once for the sake of his talent, or even let him become a substitute Shinigami. As for Ryuki, with that person's protection, the Shiba family would not watch their own people being killed. It would be much safer than with Ichigo Kurosaki.

"How interesting! Is this a comedy? As expected of our admirers, you don't forget to pay tribute to us even in such an environment." Shakespeare suddenly laughed with interest and looked towards the battlefield. Sasaki Kojiro and Urahara Kisuke also looked over and saw an extremely funny scene appear in their sight.

Ishida Uryu tied Kurosaki Ichigo's Zanpakutō to his head with a piece of cloth, then half-crouched in front of Kurosaki Ichigo, holding a huge spirit bow in his hand, aiming at the approaching Killian. Kurosaki Ichigo stood behind Ishida Uryu, holding his own Zanpakutō in both hands.

"Okay, now we can fight."

As Ishida Uryu said this, he was about to release the spiritual arrow.

However, before Ishida Uryu could launch his attack, Kurosaki Ichigo drew out his Soul Zanto and said with a look of disgust, "Are you an idiot? You actually came up with such a method."

"Don't talk too much. In this situation, if you can release all your spiritual power at 757, I should be able to shoot a very powerful arrow. You can't waste such a strong spiritual pressure! Come on, control your spiritual power and maximize it." Ishida Uryu squatted there and shouted loudly.

"No, and I don't know how to control spiritual pressure." Kurosaki Ichigo turned his head away and didn't look at Ishida Uryu.

"What? You can't? Then how have you fought with the Hollow up to now?" Ishida Uryu asked in surprise.

"Well, it's intuition." Ichigo Kurosaki scratched his hair embarrassedly.

"Intuition..." Ishida Uryu was speechless. He didn't want to waste time on Kurosaki Ichigo anymore. He turned his head to look at Arisawa Ryuki.

"Don't even think about it, I wouldn't do such a stupid pose!"

Before Ishida Uryu could speak, Arisawa Ryuki refused and ran towards the nearest Killian. After a few jumps and sprints, he appeared at Killian's feet. With a step, his body rushed directly into the sky, and using the unevenness of Killian's body, he rushed towards Killian's head. Arisawa Ryuki's voice was heard in the wind.

"I'll stick to my plan and try to break Killian's mask. This is the safest way."

As soon as the voice fell, Arisawa Longgui's body fell on Killian's shoulder, and a pale claw quickly grabbed Arisawa Longgui. Arisawa Longgui quickly jumped up from the sky.

Chapter 231 The Battle on Both Sides

Although the ghost arts Arisawa Ryuki abandoned and chanted couldn't harm Killian at all, his goal wasn't to attack, but to retreat. Using the shockwaves of the exploding fireball, Arisawa Ryuki's retreat accelerated considerably, and by the time Killian's claws came down, he was less than two meters from the ground. Then, with a heavy weight, Arisawa Ryuki landed on the grass.

"No! The mask is too hard to break."

Arisawa Ryuki retreated to the location where Kurosaki Ichigo and Ishida Uryu were and said solemnly.

"So, let's use my method." Ishida Uryu said as he ran to Arisawa Ryuki, turned his back to Arisawa Ryuki, half-crouched on the ground, waiting for Arisawa Ryuki to put up the Soul-Slaying Sword and cooperate with him in the battle.

Arisawa Ryuki's face was full of conflict. She wanted to cooperate with Ishida Uryu, but she felt it was too embarrassing. If she didn't cooperate, she would not be able to defeat that Hollow.

Speaking of which, why are these two Killian so strong? Although the spiritual pressure of the female ghost I met last time was not as strong as Killian, her strength and fortitude were no less than that of ordinary Hollows. Rukia and I were able to fight for a while before being defeated. But this guy now can't even hurt it.

Arisawa Ryuki was very puzzled. She had a wealth of theoretical knowledge, but it was actually her first time seeing a Hollow Killian. She had no idea how different the two Killians they were facing were from ordinary Killians.

"Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah...!"

At this moment, a Killian unexpectedly opened its mouth and let out a violent roar. The intensity of its spiritual pressure was also increasing rapidly. A red energy ball formed in front of its head and then gradually grew larger.
