"Sorry, sorry, I cheated."

Urahara looked at the three sisters who were Harribel's subordinates and touched his head pretending to be embarrassed.

In fact, Urahara had not expected this configuration - he had just discovered that Muguruma had met his "old rival" again!

In other words... you are letting that Yami deal with you? Are you giving him a hand... Yilong!

"Damn it! Is this a scam?"

"Tsk, well, I have no interest in facing an opponent that will be defeated by that Yami!"

"Well, let us catch you then!"

The three sisters were also uttering harsh words at this time.

Although they said it with full confidence, in fact, the three of them were very tacit at this time. They immediately pulled off an arm and threw it to a place...

The huge fusion monster "Beast God·Yong" was summoned out immediately!

"Is this the 'Fusion Summoning' that Xiaobai mentioned? It looks really powerful." Urahara commented while fanning himself with a small fan.

Kunanbai’s way of describing it is still as “two-dimensional” as ever.

"You probably don't know how powerful Urahara really is!" Apache was very unhappy with Urahara's lack of seriousness.

"If you know what's best for you, just surrender!"

"That's right, Lord Aizen wants to invite you to be his guest, hehe."

Mira and Sunsun also started to mock at this time.

I saw that Weng threw a punch at me...

However, Urahara just raised his cane casually, and then, looking very light, he used the end of the cane to block its fist!

"Although I've said that, but... you can't let me get caught like this, right?" Urahara muttered softly, but the three Apaches didn't hear it.

……

At the same time, the three non-captain-level members of the [Masked Army] were also facing equally matched challenges.

Three-digit [Arrancar] are basically just slightly inferior to the captain level, just like Ruby was only No. 101 before Grimmjow was punished. She would have a slight advantage against most of the active vice-captains. If a Shinigami vice-captain wants to win, she either has to rely on restraint or tactics.

However, the vice-captain of the [Masked Army] has mastered the ability of [Masking], and "Shikai + Mask" is equivalent to the spiritual pressure of [Bankai]. Normally, this is a power that only the captain can master, so he is not inferior to these three-digit people!

In Urahara's plan, the three of them were all pretending to be each other...

Otherwise, if they were to encounter the [Espada], it would be too dangerous. Even other captain-level [Masks] could deal with those three-digit numbers in a similar amount of time. For the Shinigami, "pairs" were also unacceptable.

Yilong indeed only arranged three three-digit numbers to deal with the three deputy captains.

Although the three former vice-captains changed their appearances after the three [Anti-Membrane Bandits] were opened,... the impact on the [Arrancar] side was not that big. After all, they didn't know much about them, and none of the three had any special abilities, so changing the opponent wouldn't make much difference.

Tiruti originally wanted to find Kunanbai, but after opening the [Anti-Membrane Bandit], the figure who was originally in white leather clothes turned into a sailor suit.

"Afro" Gang Tengbine's original target was Yadomaru, but... Yadomaru, who was obviously pretending to be young in his junior high school sailor uniform, suddenly turned into Sarukaki Hisori who looked like an elementary school student!

"Mustache" Dordoni's original target was Sarukaki Hisori, but he ended up facing Kunami Haku who was the best at single-handed fighting.

Dordoni was very satisfied with the result, because he was also good at "fighting", especially kicking skills. Facing the masked Grim Reaper who was good at "free fighting" would only make him more excited.

"Are you also good at close combat? That's what a coincidence. Let's have a physical duel!" Dorudoni looked at Kunanbai with satisfaction, and said as he made a proper fighting starting posture.

Kunan Bai said with full energy: "Look at me... I will destroy you in the name of the moon!" Then he directly entered the [Masked] state and... struck a super chuunibyou pose.

Dorudoni: ...

Dorudoni also noticed that this "girl" seemed to care more about "looking cool" than skills.

……

"Tsk, you're dressing so sexily, who are you trying to seduce? Huh?" Tiruti seemed unfriendly to Yadomaru who was wearing a sailor uniform.

"Actually, the reason you dress like this is because you want to look sexy, right? It's just that your aesthetic taste is not up to par." Yadomaru said bluntly.

"Huh? Bitch! What did you say?" Tiruti swung out her Zanpakutō without any grace - it looked like a "yo-yo" with a blade.

Seeing that she did not have [Returning Blade], Yadomaru did not use [Shikai] for the time being, and could only rely on "slashing techniques and white fighting" to fight tentatively.

……

"Afro" Gang Teng Baien said helplessly: "What! It's just a child..."

As a Hollow... Gangtenbine still has a sense of "honor" that ordinary Hollows don't have, and he feels quite a bit of psychological pressure about having to take action against a "child".

However, when Saruaki Hiyori heard this, veins on his head suddenly bulged!

"Who are you calling a kid? Do you believe me? I will saw off all your afro and use it as a potted plant, and take off your head and use it as a football?" Saruaki spoke directly, and at the same time gave up the probing stage, and went straight to the Shikai: "Cut him off, and kill the snake!"

"Eh? I..." Gang Tengbine didn't expect that this "kid" would be so rude.

……

The battles among the various [Anti-Membrane Bandits] continued. Meanwhile, in Naruki City and Karakura Town, Picaros appeared everywhere...

Although it did not cause immediate damage and only released spiritual pressure, it was enough to make the Shinigami worried. Knowing that this must be a conspiracy of the [Arrancars], they still came to the "Pikaros" under the guidance of the spiritual pressure warning device.

"Why are there so many high spiritual pressure reactions? Could it be a trick?" Kira Izuru muttered worriedly as he hurried on his way.

"Even if it's a trick, we have to rush over to verify it first!" Hinamori paused and emphasized, "This is also the instruction from Captain Shifengyuan!"

Kirara Izuru: ...

Soon they reached a fork in the road where they had to split up and the two of them dispersed.

However, when they discovered that the targets were just "real children", they were quite surprised and didn't even know what to do, especially...

Through the paging machine, the Shinigami who acted separately discovered that the source of spiritual pressure everywhere were all children!

"Hey, hey, hey, what's wrong with these little ghosts?"

"Although it looks like a little ghost, this spiritual pressure..."

"Are you here to play with me? Uncle Baldhead, Aunt Cocktail."

"Cocktail? Auntie?"

Ikkaku and the others were still hoping for a lucky break because of the appearance of the Picaros, but... soon the Picaros launched the "first round of attack" on Yumichika.

2023-10-22

The Shinigami from the expeditionary army were puzzled by the strange Arrancars who looked like little kids but had great hollow-level spiritual pressure...

However, although the Picaros have not caused any harm to the "real world" for the time being, they are not easy to appease, and the various Death Gods can only lead them into the "Broken World" for purification.

Of course, no matter how much the value of the "Great Hollows" has depreciated, they are still not something that a lower-ranking official who cannot even use the "Shikai" can deal with, let alone a group of "Great Hollows"!

There is some discrepancy between the Picaros' fighting power and spiritual pressure. After all, none of them take the fight seriously but just want to play around.

So it is called "purification", but in fact it is just "leading away". If most of the officers of the "combat team" had not come, I am afraid they would not even be able to lead them away.

"Damn it, where did that bastard Aizen find so many Hollows... and they're all children?" Ikkaku complained.

"Children? They are all naughty kids!" Yumichika still had resentment towards the Picaros' aesthetic taste.

"By the way... do you feel that they seem to be stronger after being brought together?" Ikkaku discovered something was wrong at this time.

Originally, the two of them were fighting several "small Arrancar" separately, but because they were both using the "Battle Team's Hell Butterflies", their paths in the "Broken World" overlapped, and they met up by accident...

"Will you guys come play too?"

"Okay, okay..."

"It's our turn to be the ghosts!"

"Ah! There are six of us now. We have to split up and be ghosts!"

"Seven! Idiot! It's seven!"

The Picaros were being chased before, but they were just “playing”.

"Uncle will play with you for a while!" Ikkaku showed his fighting spirit at this time - at first I thought he was just a "kid" with only spiritual pressure, but now it seems that is not the case.

……

On the other side, in a certain alley in Mingmu City.

Shiba Isshin, who was wearing a death suit, suddenly stopped and said, "Come out!"

At this moment, from the small fork in the road behind him, Yilong... no, it should be said that "Lin" walked out in the form of an [Arrancar].

"As expected of Captain Shiba, you are still so perceptive... Long time no see." Yilong greeted calmly.

Shiba disappeared more than 20 years ago, and had a long history of working with Ichiryū in the Gotei 13.

Although they were not in the same squad, the "Inspection Unit" that Ichiryu was independently in charge of at the time had always dared to take responsibility and point out the mistakes of his teammates, so he had frequent negotiations with other squads, and the two had met many times in Soul Society.

When Isshin Shiba was investigating the disappearance of the Shinigami, he once thought that Ichiryu Shihouin was the mastermind behind it!

It was not until he was attacked by Aizen that he "mistakenly thought" that he had wronged a good person...

Because when he was injured and turned into a Hollow, Shihōin Ichiryū secretly helped him, otherwise Shiba Isshin would not have been able to withstand the Hollow at that time.

Later, it was Shihouin Ichiryu who told him that Urahara Kisuke was in Karakura Town, which made his Hollowization gradually controllable.

The misunderstanding of "thinking Shihouin Ichiryu was a good person" lasted for more than 20 years in Shiba Isshin's mind, until a few months ago, when Urahara completely confirmed that Ichiryu had indeed cooperated with Aizen before, and told this to Shiba Isshin. Only then did he realize that his misunderstanding was just a misunderstanding!

"Sharp? Hahaha, it's really ironic that you praise my sharpness in this state." Shiba Isshin mocked Ichiryuu lightly - no matter how you look at it, you are an [Arrancar], right?

So you really are a "Hollow", having been a god of death in the Soul Society for more than a hundred years, and even stirring up trouble all the time...and no one has discovered this?

"Whether it's a Hollow or a Shinigami, they're just appearances, and... I remember Captain Shiba also said back then that the ones who maintain the balance and existence of the three realms are the real Shinigami. Why are you obsessed with the nature of spiritual pressure now?" Yilong said calmly.

"I can't argue with you, but...what important matter concerning the balance of the three realms do you have now? Why do you bother to come to the human world in person, especially...you bring some Shinigami to protect Urahara, and some Arrancar to capture Urahara?" Shiba Isshin said sarcastically.

Shiba Isshin actually has a very cheerful personality and is not good at mocking others.

only……

To be honest, someone's behavior is a kind of irony in itself!

"Hey, I thought you, Captain Shiba, would understand me. Captain Urahara has always wanted to stop Captain Aizen himself. I used the excuse of taking him to Kyonyo Palace to give him a chance.

"Captain Aizen has always been upset about Captain Urahara's preparation of the Hogyoku, but he didn't realize it before.

"Those masked captains are different from you, Captain Shiba. They are still wanted by the Soul Society, but they have not been arrested yet. I have the authority to pardon them or not during this opportunity, so of course I want them to make some contributions.

"As for my Arrancar friends, they have long wanted to fight the Shinigami captains...

"What have I done wrong? I just want everyone to be happy." Yilong's face seemed to be filled with holy light.

Shiba Isshin: ...

"You... you're still full of twisted theories." Zhiba Isshin said, sighing and shaking his head. He knew that he couldn't win the argument with Yilong, but...

"But you said that Urahara wanted to defeat Aizen by himself?" Shiba Isshin specifically questioned this point - Urahara, however, did not have such an idea of ​​winning, and Isshin knew this very well.

"No, first of all, I didn't say defeat, but stop. Secondly... the 'self' I mentioned was referring to them." When I mentioned "them", I specifically pointed to the sky - although this was not the Soul Society, Shiba Isshin still understood what he meant, that is... the Soul King Palace!

Urahara didn't want to defeat Aizen himself, he just didn't want the Soul King Palace, or the Zero Squad to intervene. At the same time... Urahara was also training Ichigo, and even...

“In fact, I also know that he should be guiding my son. Maybe one day I will stand on the same battlefield with my son.” Yilong said calmly.

"You... are still as bad as ever." Zhiba Isshin looked at Yilong awkwardly.

Urahara Kisuke didn't completely bet on Ichigo, he also assisted Shiba Isshin in his training and placed high hopes on him, so...

Shiba Isshin had an inexplicable feeling that this guy was taking advantage of him, and... he was doing it on purpose!

Immediately, Shiba Isshin's expression became serious, and he said, "But... you don't think that you can get away with it by saying this, right?" As he spoke, Isshin had already placed his hand on the hilt of the knife.

That’s right, even now Yilong seems to be not on the same page with Aizen and seems to be able to be “used”.

but……

A more accurate judgment is that if we can defeat him here, whether we kill him or capture him, it will be a more advantageous situation. We have to cooperate, and this option will only be available when we "can't do anything to him"!
