Death God: Sunny and Cheerful Boy

In comparison, Harribel's perception in normal space is stronger!

Sure enough, the next moment, several figures appeared in the air...

If Aizen were here, he would feel very familiar with it - they are all old acquaintances of his!

The leader was none other than Mako Hirako, who had golden bangs...

"Since this is our first meeting, I'll be frank with you...Are you monsters created by Aizen?" Hirako Mako asked bluntly.

"Huh? You..." Yami's anger instantly rose.

However, it was Harribel who stepped forward and said, "No, I am Harribel, an Arrancar... but it seems to you that this is indeed a monster he created."

What Harribel said was the truth - after all, she awakened on her own and it had nothing to do with Aizen.

2023-10-14

Among the Arrancar team sent by Aizen to Karakura Town, Grimmjow "jumped ahead" and secretly came to the human world with his subordinates before Harribel's organization.

After Harribel and others came to the human world, they were immediately blocked by the "Masked Army"!

Facing Hirako Mako's pre-war trash talk challenge, Harribel "rebounded" and caused several members of the "Masked Army" to break down their defenses.

The "masked army" that appeared in front of Harribel and the others at this time consisted of eight people. If they were old men from the Seireitei, they would definitely be able to recognize them here...

Although they were wearing "real world" clothes, seven of these eight people were the former captains and vice-captains of the [Gotei 13], and one was the deputy ghost leader of the [Kidoshu].

Faced with Harribel's "backlash" and being ridiculed as "a monster created by Aizen", the [Masked Army] all changed their expressions.

Especially the most manic and irritable Saruaki Hiyori, who couldn't help it at this moment, and the word "well" instantly jumped up above her head - she was already very angry about Aizen's behavior, and... she was also dissatisfied with women with developed spherical fat!

Now a female Arrancar with a spherical body and developed fat says that she is a monster created by Aizen... How can we tolerate this?

Her figure, which looked smaller than Nayura and Rurichiyo and only slightly larger than the Yagyu father and son, rushed out in an instant!

"Cut him off, and kill the snake!"

After Saruichi's [Zanpakutō] was released, it became a huge saw blade - just like [Snake Tail Maru] that could not bend or stretch. Considering Saruichi's height, the length of [Snake Orochi] was already very exaggerated.

Saruichi swung up the [Snake] with his right hand, and "instantly stepped" to the top of Harribel's head, and then he hooked his left hand on his face, and instantly a "Mask of Hollow" with red stripes and a single horn formed on her face!

Unlike the [Arrancars], these so-called [Masks] that were catalyzed by the [Hougyoku] are actually still gods of death, but they usually seal and hide their hollow power so that they will not be disturbed by the hollow power, and then use healing methods to maintain the spirits of the gods of death.

During the battle, you can release the sealed power by "putting on a mask"!

In an instant, Yuan Shi's spiritual pressure increased by another level. She was originally only the deputy captain, but now her spiritual pressure was no less than that of a third-class spiritual power - it was just too "chaotic", and probably not as flexible as that of a true third-class spiritual power.

Facing her fierce sword, Harribel remained motionless...

"Bite her away, Golden Lion General!"

Mira, who was the most muscular behind Harribel, stood up and drew her sword [Returning to the Blade]...

when--

With the sound of the blades clashing, Harribel blocked Yuan Ichi's attack in front of him!

Like Harribel, Mira had slightly dark skin and long black wavy hair. Although she also had a lot of fat deposits, she looked a bit bulky compared to Harribel - which might appeal to some people's tastes.

Moreover, after Mira [Returned to the Blade], she looked very much like a human, and she even still had a weapon... Her body shape didn't change much, except that white bone armor replaced the white uniform, the big waves on her head became even bigger, and she had a large tuft of golden hair, and the blade that was originally similar to a "shallow sword" became more like a greatsword!

"Little thing, I know you're anxious, but don't be anxious yet." Mira said half sarcastically and half deliberately provocatively.

"Fat black woman! Die!" Yuan Shi shouted hostilely.

"You called me...what?" Mira suddenly became more serious.

As the two were fighting fiercely, Pingzi said calmly: "Sorry, sorry, we are too rude here."

"Baldy! Who do you say is impolite?" Yuan Shi took advantage of the gap in the knife fight to turn around and scold Pingzi.

"But no matter whether you were created by Aizen or not, can you tell us why you are not in Hueco Mundo and are here?" Hirako asked calmly but seriously.

"Inviting guests has nothing to do with you." Harribel told the truth.

"How cold... Since it has nothing to do with us, then... I will come to invite you all on behalf of the [Masked Army]!" As Hirako said this, his spiritual pressure had already erupted.

"Okay! Hahaha!" Yami was already excited at this time.

However, Harribel tore several black holes in the air with a "swish swish" sound, and then stopped Yami: "If you want to hit him, hit him inside!"

As she spoke, Harribel kept staring at Pingzi.

Pingzi paused when he saw this, but still said, "If the lady wishes to meet alone, of course I am happy to accompany her."

Hirako's [Bankai] is a magical skill of "one against many", but... Hirako never thought about [Bankai] in the first place. After all, it can only be strictly "one against many" - "many against many" or "one against one" are not possible!

And at this time he was surrounded by teammates...

What made him pause was that the opponent seemed to know his ability, so he deliberately split up the battlefield!

This is indeed the case. The reason why so many "black chambers" were opened, in addition to not affecting Karakura Town, is also because from "Lin", Harribel learned some of Hirako's abilities...

Ichiryu actually didn't know how specific it was, as Hirako's Bankai was well hidden in Soul Society. It was just that from other aspects, Ichiryu vaguely "saw" that Hirako's ability was not suitable for "all at once".

Pingzi did not hesitate at this time and walked directly to the black cavity in the middle where Harribel was.

"Let me show you real art!"

"I don't really want to do it, but since he's one of Aizen's minions..."

The former captain of the third squad, Fengqiao Loujuro, and the former deputy ghost chief Arishoda Bokugen, each went to find Somali and Sal Apollo.

Fengqiao Loujuro has a slender figure and big wavy golden hair, and looks more like a musician than a warrior, while Arishoda Boxuan looks like a gentle uncle. His pink hair makes his temperament even gentler. He speaks in a soft voice. Although he has a huge figure, he is very round and has no edges.

In [Masked Army], the four former captains, plus the former vice-captain, can be considered captains. The other three vice-captains, although their spiritual pressure can reach the third-level spiritual power after putting on masks, are still inferior to the real captains...

From the beginning, except for the low-key Aikawa Luowu, the other four captains consciously targeted the four strongest among the attacking [Arrancar].

Hirako thought he was the strongest person present, so he went after the other side's "leader". However, in the eyes of Houqiao Rojuro and Arishoda Bokugen, Yami looked big and strong, and was obviously a power-type [Arrancar], which was more suitable for Rokuma Kensei.

Zomali then calmly said: "Art? Interesting."

Perhaps because he was almost expelled from the Ten Espada and has been having a series of bad luck recently, Sal Apollo has been a little silent.

"Huh? Are these all you have left?" Yami said in a tone of "I originally wanted to make ten."

Seeing this, Liu Che Quanxi said handsomely: "Don't worry, I won't waste too much of your time..."

229. Chapter 228: Thousand Kills of the Royal Mermaid Queen!

229.

2023-10-14

In the black cavity.

"Fall down, and stroke it backwards."

Facing Mako Hirako, Harribel suddenly felt her consciousness twisted. Mako Hirako, who was originally walking towards her, suddenly turned the [Zanpakutō] in his hand and walked towards her head down!

Harribel's expression changed, and she quickly returned the sword and said, "Conquer him, Queen Mermaid!"

Soon, Harribel's white uniform turned into a simple white bone armor - the part on her body highlighted her figure even more, and the "knife" in her hand turned into a huge sword covered with shark gill patterns.

Although it is called a "giant sword", the [Queen of the Mermaids] does not look sharp, and it does not even have a "blade". It looks more like a special hollow device.

As for Hirako Mako's [Nifu], after the "Shikai", the general shape did not change, but there were five more small round holes on the blade, and a large ring at the end of the handle. At this time, Hirako Mako held this part, allowing the sword to rotate freely.

"Is this the power of a perfect [Arrancar]? Indeed... your power doesn't seem to be created by [Hougyoku], but it's a pity... If that's the case, why did you still join Aizen?" Mako Hirako said as he calmly walked towards Harribel.

"Surrender? It's up to you what you think..." Harribel was unmoved.

At this moment, a dazzling golden light flashed on the huge [Queen of the Shark]. As Harribel waved it, the golden light burst out and swept towards Hirako Mako with great momentum!

It's the [Virtual Flash] triggered by being attached to the weapon!

Seeing this, Hirako Mako's eyes narrowed, and he immediately moved to the left at high speed, but Harribel also swung to the left at this time, and the explosion coverage of the flash also swept from right to left...

Seeing [Void Flash] hit directly and caused a huge explosion in the void of the broken world, Harribel frowned slightly, somewhat puzzled by the opponent's stupid reaction. At the same time... she was also puzzled by the strange "feel"!

The next moment, a streak of blood suddenly appeared on Harribel's shoulder - Harribel had been stabbed without her noticing, and she didn't even notice it until the wound started to bloom.

Hirako Mako, who was thought to be at the center of the explosion, appeared behind Harribel for some reason, still upside down, and opened her mouth...

"Sorry, it seems you were mistaken."

Hirako's voice came from another direction, and Harribel felt very awkward.

Immediately, the gill holes on Harribel [Queen of the Sharks] appeared. At this time, the water rippled, and the spiritual pressure surged. A stream of water slashed in the direction of the sound, but...

"Broken Waterfall!"

Like a long snake, the water flow passed by, but still didn't hit anything!

Harribel's eyes narrowed...

At the same time, Pingzi thrust a sword - this sword was unremarkable.

However, when Harribel drew her sword to block, she felt that she had blocked it, but she was still stabbed the next moment!

And just when Harribel felt the touch and quickly retreated, trying to avoid it, she was pierced by [Reverse Stroke] instead!

It felt like I had misjudged the direction and ended up bumping into a knife's edge.

"【Reverse Caress】is not just a visual confusing effect. Now all your perceptions will be reversed, not only the up and down, left and right in space, but even the sounds you hear... it's the same." Pingzi said calmly at this time, as if he had already won the game.

"Is it... a smell?" Harribel vaguely smelled a strange fragrance around her.

"You can say that." Pingzi was not worried about being discovered, because...

This is just like Aizen's [Kyouka Suigetsu], which can take effect as long as you "have seen the process of [Initiation]", there is no use holding your breath now.

And even if it were known, this method would be difficult to resist, as it's not just a matter of not breathing.

At this time, Harribel didn't know how to crack it. She felt... this didn't seem to be an ordinary "illusion" effect, but she actually saw the other person and heard the other person's voice, but the judgment she made was always wrong!

Before anything happened, I was already covered in bruises.

"Although you seem to be an Arrancar on your own, you should also be from the Kyonoku Palace, right? Can I ask you some questions?" Taking advantage of the great advantage, Hirako tried to force something out of you.

But just then...

Harribel retracted the effect of [Return to the Blade], and the knife in her hand returned to the one she had before [Return to the Blade] - it was shorter than the ordinary "shallow strike" and was hollow in the middle.

Seeing Harribel holding her "Shallow Fighter" horizontally, Pingzi wondered, "Is this a way of expressing your sincerity?"

Is he afraid to fight? That's a good thing, Hirako's target is not Aizen's lackeys, but himself!

Just looking at Harribel, Hirako didn't think that this was the expression one would have when losing the will to fight.

Sure enough, the next moment...

"In the vast ocean, a group of sharks are dancing, their teeth are like stars, their eyes are deep, they swallow the sky and the earth... Thousand Kills Royal Mermaid Queen!"

After Harribel finished saying the words of returning to the blade again, she threw out the "shallow strike" directly - just like when Yilong released the "burning stake", she threw it casually.

Then, the power in the Hollow Zanpakutō instantly expanded and bloomed on the sword!

Soon, sharks that seemed to be made of water and had only teeth on their mouths gathered around.

At the same time, a special space like "water area" has formed around it, allowing these "imperial sharks" to swim freely in it.

"Want a group battle... tsk." At first, Pingzi felt that this was exactly what he wanted, but then he discovered that... these "sharks" were not "eating" the effect of [Reverse Caress].

It was obvious that these "sharks" did not act based on their own thinking. At the same time... looking at Harribel's motionless appearance, it was clear that they were not controlled by her.

more like...

"It's useless. The group of mermaids are purely automatic attacking. Any creature within this range except me will be devoured by them. This does not require any thinking, nor does it require my command!" Harribel admitted it directly.

Mako Hirako dodged and blocked these "sharks" a few times in a somewhat awkward manner, but they seemed a little dwarfed - since these things were not affected by the effect of [Reverse Caress], they would not be affected by his "Bankai".

The image of "Lin" also appeared in Harribel's mind at this time - fortunately, there was "Lin"'s guidance, otherwise...

That's right, Harribel's [Return to the Blade - Second Style] imitated Lin's idea of ​​"keeping the power of the Hollow completely outside and not interacting with oneself".
