Death God: Sunny and Cheerful Boy

This is indeed the truth. A god of death without Bankai cannot grasp much of the power of the King's Seal, and most of it will eventually dissipate...

However, for Rukia, temporarily absorbing a part of the [Royal Seal] is enough to affect her [Bankai]!

Ichiryuu was able to deduce Rukia's Bankai ability and knew that the power of the Royal Seal would be a good "patch", so he brought her here and created this accident at the right time...

At this moment, Kusanagi, who was chopped off by Ichigo, also emerged from the dust - after all, there is smoke but no injury.

Not only was Kusanagi not injured, his spiritual pressure was even stronger, and it was completely different from before, but...

Although he was not injured, his appearance had changed. Part of his body had begun to be replaced by the body of the "Ice Dragon". Half of his face was covered with ice crystals, and he did not look awake!

"Kusakano!" Hitsugaya saw this and voice was filled with concern.

Roar--

At this time, Kusanagi attacked Hitsugaya like a madman...

Seeing Ichigo and Rukia looking at Kusanagi with worry, Ichiryu said again: "Don't worry, Rukia, the [King's Seal] is a power affected by will. Your will is not as crazy as his, so the power of the [King's Seal] will not be so violent when it is on you.

"Ah! By the way, in order to keep a relaxed state of mind, you can take a vacation to the human world and let Ichigo accompany you..."

When the two heard the first words, they all breathed a sigh of relief, and as for the latter... they just pretended not to hear them!

After Yilong dealt with the [King's Seal], he also began to observe the grass crown...

Could the second [Hyorinmaru] be a conspiracy of Squad Zero?

194. Chapter 193 Rukia: It’s all my fault!

194.

2023-10-02

In a secluded corner of Seireitei.

Amidst a burst of flashes and roars from underground, a piece of the ground collapsed, and not only did the surrounding area collapse, but also...

I saw two "ice dragons" rushing out from underground and fighting with each other!

However, if you look closely, one of the "ice dragons" still has a human form - it just has ice wings and an ice dragon tail attached to its back, a dragon neck extending from one arm, a dragon head on its palm, and a [Zanpakutō] sticking out of the dragon head...

It was Hitsugaya who had [Bankai]!

The other "ice dragon" undoubtedly looks more like an "ice dragon" and hardly looks like a human anymore.

After absorbing 70% of the power of the [King's Seal], the power of the [Hyorinmaru] in his body fully expanded.

It transformed into a giant dragon five or six meters long, completely covered in ice crystals.

Compared to Hitsugaya, Kusanagi, whose consciousness is no longer clear, fights more wildly.

Hitsugaya was still wielding the Zanpakuto in the dragon's head, but Kusanagi was already like a real dragon... no, like a wild beast, fighting with his fangs and claws, as well as his sturdy dragon tail!

In terms of combat skills, Hitsugaya is obviously much more sophisticated, and in terms of the development of the abilities of his [Zanpakuto], Kusanagi is even more incomparable. Logically speaking, even with the blessing of the [King's Seal], given the similar spiritual pressures of the two, Kusanagi should not be his opponent.

but……

In fact, when fighting, Hitsugaya seemed to be overwhelmed!

The reason is that Hitsugaya is more accustomed to fighting with the power of [Daicunlian Hyorinmaru], and for the current battle, whether Hitsugaya or Kusanagi, it is difficult to cause freezing damage to the other party...

In contrast, Kusanagi, who left the battle to instinct, was able to make better use of his current body to launch a direct attack!

"Captain Hitsugaya...are you okay?" Rukia asked worriedly.

"It's okay! And... this is their fight." Ichigo grasped the hilt of the sword but then let go.

"It's looking a little better now. After the winner is decided, the winner can be allowed to challenge me. Hahaha..." Zaraki talked to himself.

The other people had also come up from below at this time. If Hitsugaya was defeated, Ichigo would definitely take action. He would not be like Zaraki who stood by and watched him die out of respect for the "official duel".

But now that Hitsugaya was only at a slight disadvantage, Ichigo was restraining himself.

Yilong was observing carefully at this time, without saying much, but his brows gradually furrowed.

“This feeling doesn’t seem to be connected to the same sword spirit, it’s more like... Could it be... So that’s it…” Yilong gradually understood, but at the same time he felt a little disappointed.

"Hey, hey, what did Xiao Yilong see?" At this time, Yaqianliu turned into a Nana monster and pulled the corner of Yilong's Death Tyrant Suit.

"Hahaha, it looks more interesting than I thought, but it's still a pity..." Yilong said, and touched Yachiru's head.

"Eh? So that's it..." Yachiru seemed to have noticed something, or rather, he seemed to have noticed what Yilong had noticed.

At the same time, sensing the spiritual pressure here, Kyōraku, Byakuya, Soi-Fong, the three captains-general, plus captain Ukitake, also rushed over - the other captains, probably because of the distance, did not feel it or had not arrived yet.

"Oh no...Is it possible that I can't get the [Royal Seal] back?" Kyoraku pressed his hat helplessly.

“What’s going on?” Byakuya frowned and looked at Rukia - look at the people present, Shihouin Ichiryu, Zaraki Kenpachi, Kurosaki Ichigo… they were all assholes who could do any kind of asshole things, but why was his own sister hanging out with these “bad students”?

"Should we stop them first?" Ukitake looked at Caoguan nervously.

Rukia said quickly: "Brother! Captain Hitsugaya did not betray the Soul Society. Before..."

"We already know that Captain Komamura has woken up." Kuchiki interrupted directly. This was not what he wanted to ask about.

"I mean... why is Kusanagi like this? And... what are you doing?" Kuchiki was obviously dissatisfied with Shifengyuan and the others who were just "watching".

It's not impossible for you to have a one-on-one relationship...

But there was obviously a mistake, the power of the [King's Seal] had been absorbed!

If the mission fails, then your presence here will be completely in vain!

Even considering that Shihouin Ichiryu was present, Kuchiki Byakuya had a reasonable suspicion that the current situation was all in his plan...

"I'm so, so sorry! I'm so ashamed...Brother, it's all my fault!" Rukia blushed when she heard that and bowed immediately.

Kuchiki Byakuya: ???

Then Rukia briefly explained why the situation had turned out this way - well, she had also heard Captain Shifengyuan explain it this way!

However, Rukia's explanation of the reason why she suddenly "exploded her will" and was teleported by the [Royal Seal] was vague, which made the four people who arrived later look at Shifengyuan Ichiryu - as expected, you were the one who fooled her, right?

but……

"Little Rukia is shy again! When I said that little Rukia and little Ichigo were going to get married, little Rukia was so shy that she suddenly teleported over!" Yachiru immediately corrected Rukia's omission.

Kyōraku, Ukitake, Soi-Fong: ...

Kuchiki:!!!

After hearing Yachiru's revelation, Rukia's face immediately turned red, smoke seemed to come out of her ears, and the system froze!

"No! Dad is just talking nonsense!" Ichigo immediately denied it when he saw this.

"Commander-in-Chief Shihouin..." Kuchiki Byakuya's tone became serious.

But at this moment, I heard...

boom--

click-

With a loud bang, Hitsugaya Toshiro, who was in the [Bankai] state, was hammered down by the ice dragon incarnated by Kusanagi, and fell directly to the ground. Many of the ice "parts" on his body were shattered.

While Kuchiki and Shihoin were discussing marriage, Xiaobai was beaten up a lot.

"Well... this doesn't seem like the time for small talk." Kyoraku said, and with his thumb on his Zanpakutō, he pushed the hilt of the blade out of the scabbard a little.

"Kyōraku." Ukitake raised his hand slightly to stop Kyōraku.

Ukitake also noticed something and understood why his good friend Kyōraku suddenly became so "diligent" and was the first to take the initiative to draw his sword!

On the contrary, the too "young" Byakuya Kuchiki, although already the head of the Kuchiki family, just frowned at this time... It may also be that he was confused by his "sister's marriage" and didn't have time to think more!

"This thing should be..." Kyoraku said as he looked over, but Ukitake still shook his head.

Kyoraku sighed helplessly, then looked at Yilong again, let go of the knife and covered his hat with his hands, muttering softly: "Forget it... Anyway, it must have been discovered, I hope there won't be any more trouble..."

195. Chapter 194: The Beliefs of Squad Zero

195.

2023-10-02

In the high and mighty Spirit King's Palace, a pair of red pupils watched the confrontation between the two ice dragons on the screen...

"Hey! Since you care so much, why not go and see for yourself?" A tongue-twisting voice came from behind.

"No, Nimeiya, have you forgotten? Everything is under the gaze of these eyes. It makes no difference whether it is real or not..."

The owner of the red eyes said meaningfully.

With the perspective open, we can see that the man called "Ermeiwu" is a "trendy guy" with curly hair and sunglasses, while the owner of the red eyes is a bald monk with a big beard.

That’s right, it’s the “Real Name Hu Heshang” and “Sword God Nimeiya Ouyue” from the Zero Squad.

"I was really scared at that time. I said... I had four, three... and two. Wang Yue! How could I miss? Hahaha!" Wang Yue said as he sang and danced.

However, the monk Zhenminghu just remained silent.

"Ten, nine, eight...two, Wang Yue!" In order to ease the embarrassment, Wang Yue continued.

The monk called by his real name still did not react, but said calmly: "I have never doubted that the problem is not your forging, nor the real name I gave you, so it can only be..."

Sword God Wang Yue paused for a moment, then stood up straight with a serious look.

"It can only be that the great Spiritual King had a slight nightmare in his dream." Sword God Wang Yue continued to say what the monk, whose real name is Hu Heshang, said.

As they spoke, the two of them looked towards the direction of the "Spiritual King's Great Inner Palace" at the same time...

In the legend of Soul Society, the omniscient and omnipotent Soul King, who created everything, controls everything, moves forward and stops, is "sleeping" there at this moment.

In the form of a "minimum existence", sleeping here...

On the head that barely maintained its appearance, only the abnormal "quadruple pupils" of the eyes could be seen as normal. From the empty "mouth" where there was nothing, it could be seen that the inside seemed to be empty as well...

Below the head, there was only a layer of skin that barely maintained the appearance of the "upper body". Not to mention the limbs, one could vaguely see that the torso was completely empty, with no bones or internal organs...

The great Soul King was suspended in this column of liquid, receiving the protection of Squad Zero and the worship of all the beings in Soul Society.

"Monk, Your Majesty the Spiritual King, you don't really want to wake up, do you?" Wang Yue still called him "monk", seemingly not speaking seriously, but... his tone was very solemn and serious.

"Palace Master Ermeiwu, what are you talking about... If His Majesty the Spiritual King really wants to wake up, he only needs to think about it. This is something that cannot be stopped even if more of His Majesty the Spiritual King's power is separated. [When He wakes up, the sleeping and everything in the sleeping will no longer exist here, nor there.]"

The battle between the two Hyorinmaru was still reflected in the monk's eyes, and he answered Wang Yue in a muttered voice - and specifically addressed him by his position in Squad Zero.

Wang Yue actually knew what the monk said...

After all, this is something you will definitely know when you join Squad Zero and become the Soul King's guard.

When Wang Yue Nimaiya first saw His Majesty the Soul King, he felt as if his faith had collapsed. At that time, the existence of the Soul King had not yet been diluted in Soul Society. Before seeing the Soul King in person, Wang Yue still believed that the Soul King was the actual ruler of the Three Realms...

Then the monk told him the truth about the Spirit King...

Thousands of years ago, the five great noble ancestors, who had their own ideas about the development of the world, attacked the Spirit King...

The one who actually took action was the founder of the Tsunayashiro family, but the "great deeds" that followed were only accomplished by the five families working together - the Soul King became the "wedge" of the three realms.

The reason why various balances must be maintained between the three realms and hell is precisely because this is a "wedge" that maintains a stable world.

The philosophies of the five families are also different. The founder of the Shiba family did not agree with this until the end, and was even willing to sacrifice himself to replace the "Soul King" as the wedge between the three realms. The founder of the Shihouin family believed that sooner or later a better way would be found, such as creating a magic weapon that could replace the Soul King as a wedge...

However, in the end, the basic consensus of the five families was that it was impossible for Tsunayashiro alone... or even if the five nobles joined forces, to turn the "Spirit King" into a "wedge" without his consent!

It should be that when the "Spirit King" was attacked, he saw the future of the world and agreed with such a world, so he volunteered to be a "wedge".

Of course, speculation is speculation, the Tsunayashiro clan has always been worried that He might want to wake up one day, so they keep cutting His body into pieces and weakening His power.

Squad Zero is the Soul King's guard, but... there is one thing that Mana Hu Heshang and everyone in Squad Zero firmly believe in!

As long as His Majesty the Soul King does not want to continue sleeping, everything will return to its original state. Even as long as His Majesty the Soul King has the idea of ​​disapproving of what Tsunayashiro and the others have done, then... the fact that His Majesty the Soul King was attacked and fell asleep will no longer exist in any world line.

It's not "If it were this way, it wouldn't have happened in the first place", but when the Soul King denies this "result", the "cause" will also be erased...

This is the foundation of the faith that Squad Zero has built.

The extension of this belief foundation is...

As long as everything still exists, the Three Realms are still functioning, and His Majesty the Soul King has not woken up, it means that everything is as He expected. As members of Squad Zero, we will protect the Soul King and the world that the Soul King expects. Anyone who wants to break all this is their enemy!
