Death God: Sunny and Cheerful Boy

Otherwise the time and identity will not match.

Moreover, Emperor Xingtian was once an ally of Yhwach, and his country was destroyed and he died due to the interference of the Seireitei.

"He actually wants to destroy the entire Soul Society in order to make old man Yamamoto take the responsibility. This guy is more dangerous than Aizen!" Ichigo is ready to "fight the boss."

……

Ah sneeze——

Yilong sneezed after leaving Lan Dao's room, and felt like someone was talking about him...

The next morning, just as Ichiryu arrived at the desk where he was handling team affairs, Ohuo Tiger came to report: "Captain, Captain Hitsugaya is here and said he wants to see Randao."

"Tell him no." Yilong answered without thinking.

The patrol team is one of the squads that is mainly responsible for the Soul Hunters disaster. When the captains went to the meeting yesterday, the deputy captain Rangiku came once...

That guy Hisagi was almost blinded by Rangiku's car lights, causing her to see Ranjima, but luckily, Obihiro was there and sternly rejected Rangiku's "visit".

Lan Dao was only exiled, not imprisoned, so there were no restrictions on visits. However, arguing was obviously useless, so Weihuohu took out the new regulations that Yilong had just written on the spot.

Rangiku originally wanted to fight with Okamoto, but...

Whether or not she could defeat Ohuto, who had secured the third spot based on his own strength, was not the point. Moreover, Hisagi Shuhei, upon seeing this, also stopped Rangiku - at this time, Shuhei did not doubt Captain Shihouin.

Seeing this, Rangiku had no choice but to leave angrily.

Yesterday, Ichiryu was not there, so Rangiku was not able to see him. Today, there was no need for the vice-captain to come and try. Captain Hitsugaya came in person...

As Yilong finished speaking, a voice came from outside: "Captain Shifengyuan is too inhumane, isn't he?"

"Captain Hitsugaya, wait..."

"stop!"

Hitsugaya had actually rushed in, and behind him, Hisagi and two other masked Shinigami were about to stop him but were unable to keep up with Hitsugaya's flash step.

"Isn't this Captain Hitsugaya? The 9th Division is responsible for detaining criminals. Unlike ordinary divisions, breaking in by force will be considered a prison break." Ichiryuu warned him while pretending to have just spotted Hitsugaya.

"I'm not interested in people in prison. I'm here to see Randao. She's just been exiled, not detained." Hitsugaya certainly wouldn't be scared by Ichiryu so easily.

"No, Ms. Lan Dao is in the observation period. According to the regulations..." Yilong said seriously.

Hitsugaya obviously had no intention of listening to Ichiryu muttering about some rules he had just made up, and simply shouted, "Shifengyuan! Don't think we don't know what you want! We also know about the [Purification Chapter], so release Randao immediately!"

Hearing the name [Pure World Chapter] from Hitsugaya, Yilong said inwardly: As expected!

Knowing that Rangiku wanted to meet Randao during the captains' meeting, Yilong had a vague idea that the other captains had also discovered the importance of Randao...

Of course, Yilong still has the intelligence advantage over them. They only know about the [Purification Chapter], but Yilong already knows that even if he uses the [Purification Chapter], he will not be able to blow up the Soul Society. He will just find that there is still a space hidden in the shadow of the Soul Society.

If it really could blow up the Soul Society and the Invisible Empire once and for all, Yilong would definitely be more active in making it happen, but...

Even if the [Purification Chapter] is activated now, it will only cause the "Seireitei" and the "Invisible Empire" to go to war prematurely.

After learning that the [Purification Chapter] was a dud, Yilong had other ideas in mind...

"Purifying the World Chapter? Oh, the project that failed back then? Don't worry, I've confirmed that the explosion was just an accident. The [Purifying World Chapter] doesn't have that strong power. You just need to continue to eliminate the travel disasters." Yilong told the truth.

"Do you think I'll believe you if you say that?" Hitsugaya obviously didn't buy it.

“Hisagi, get him out.” Yilong immediately ordered the vice-captain to get him out.

“Captain Hitsugaya…” Hisagi was now more inclined to believe Captain Shihouin and was about to step forward to stop Hitsugaya.

However, at this moment, Hitsugaya had summoned his spiritual pressure and grasped his Zanpakutō. Seeing this, Hisagi could not help but exclaimed in surprise: “You…”

Hisagi was also confused - why was it that every time a "travel disaster" occurred, the captains would have to fight among themselves first?

“Hisagi, get out of the way.” Hitsugaya said without even looking at Hisagi Shuhei, but just stared at Shihouin Ichiryu in front of him.

"Captain Hitsugaya wants to take action?" Yilong looked at Hitsugaya in surprise, then frowned and said, "Who asked you to come and find clues about the [Purification Chapter]? What did he tell you?"

Judging from his behavior, it seems like Ichiryu is suspecting that Hitsugaya was instigated by someone.

Seeing this, Hisagi, who had been hesitant at first, gritted his teeth and chose to trust his own captain - after all, the last time the Aizen incident happened, it was proven that Captain Shihouin's judgment was correct.

"Shifengyuan, let me see Randao." An icy blue mist appeared in Hitsugaya's eyes, and it was obvious that he was ready to take action.

In Hitsugaya's mind, although Shihouin Ichiryu had hidden strength before, his record was only to defeat Kurotsuchi Mayuri who was not good at fighting...

Hitsugaya, who had recovered from his injuries, had completely forgotten his previous defeat against Aizen. He now felt that he was 80% sure that he could defeat Shihouin Isryu unscathed!

The other two points were because Shifengyuan resisted too fiercely and accidentally hurt him...

……

At the same time, Ichigo, Uryu, Inoue, and Chad have also arrived in the Soul Society, near the 9th Division.

Unlike Hitsugaya, they also face the interception of "a group of masked officers" - Hitsugaya is the captain after all, and these officers brought by Ichiryu will not openly block him.

At this time, Uryu, Inoue and Chad had already started fighting with these mysterious officers of the 9th Division in order to protect Ichigo. Ichigo finally arrived at the 9th Division's barracks!

Just near the squad barracks, Ichigo saw Rangiku...

"Sister Rangiku? You're here too?" Ichigo knew Rangiku when he was recuperating in the Soul Society.

"Well, you came to..." Rangiku looked at Ichigo with a little surprise.

After hearing Ichigo's simple explanation, Rangiku then realized that Captain Kyōraku had also gone to inform Ichigo.

"By the way, Sister Rangiku, you are Captain Hitsugaya's vice-captain, right? Captain Hitsugaya..." Ichigo asked nervously.

But at this moment, a strong spiritual pressure collision suddenly erupted in the squadron's barracks!

"Oh no! The captain and that Shifengyuan are fighting!" Rangiku panicked and rushed into the team barracks.

When Ichigo heard this, he realized that Hitsugaya was inside, and it seemed that... he was still confronting the super bad Shihouin Ichiryu, so he rushed over quickly!

144. Chapter 144: Hyorinmaru

144.

2023-09-15

"Captain Hitsugaya, are you planning on breaking into the prison?" Ichiryuu became a little more serious and gave a final warning.

"If you're going to stop me..." Hitsugaya said as he had already pulled out his Zanpakuto, holding it with both hands and pointing it at Ikuryu.

Ohuo Tiger, who was standing by, also drew his sword and wanted to confront Hitsugaya, but was stopped by Ichiryu.

"It seems that Captain Hitsugaya has not learned any lessons from Aizen's rebellion... Then I can only remind you again...'young genius' and the like are just encouragement to those who are behind." Ichiryu said, and drew his Zanpakutō.

Perhaps Ichiryu's words stimulated Hitsugaya, or perhaps Hitsugaya was determined to fight at this time, so he did not answer, but directly said the words of liberation: "Sit upright in the frost sky, Hyorinmaru!"

After the "Shikai" of Hyorinmaru, there is a chain behind the hilt with a crescent-shaped decoration tied to it.

Compared to the blade, this "crescent moon" plays a more important role after [Shikai].

It is this that brings about the chill...

The next moment, Hitsugaya had already rushed in front of Ichiryu. When Ichiryu was about to block with his sword, Hitsugaya, who was originally preparing for a heavy chop, suddenly changed his move and turned around in front of Ichiryu, leaving a crescent-shaped slash. More importantly, the "crescent" behind the handle of the sword began to swing!

Suddenly, the cold air followed the shaking of the "crescent" and violently burst out, blasting open a crescent-shaped ice wall extending forward...

It was Hitsugaya's specialty at the beginning - Ice Dragon's Tail!

If you don't know this move beforehand, you will most likely be frozen directly when you are not prepared. Yilong's figure was indeed sealed in the ice wall at this time...

Seeing this, Hitsugaya curled his lips and said, "You should reflect on yourself in there first, and after I meet Randao..." As he said that, he was about to walk directly past the frozen Ichiryu.

But just then...

"Where are you reflecting?" Ichiryu's voice came from behind Hitsugaya.

Hitsugaya was startled when he heard the sound, and swung his sword in the air, but he didn't hit anything - because Ichiryu had no intention of taking the opportunity to attack, he just stood calmly a few meters behind him and reminded him.

Compared to just now, Yilong...the feather is gone?

Hitsugaya glanced at the ice wall next to him with his peripheral vision, and found that the "image" of Shifengyuan that he had seen before was now only a haori!

That's right, Ichiryu used [Utsukishiro] to dodge the attack that Hitsugaya thought was a sure hit, and from beginning to end, his spiritual pressure remained at the level of third-level spiritual power, which was slightly inferior to Hitsugaya's.

The next moment, Hitsugaya had already used [Shunpo] to get close to his face again...

when--

Swah——

Sugar palm——

click-

Ichiryu only used a shallow attack to collide with Hitsugaya's Hyorinmaru after his Shikai. As expected...

Not very good!

After three or four hits, Yilong's blade, along with one of his forearms, had been frozen. So he used the force to break the opponent's move, then leaped back slightly and retreated.

"The most powerful ice-type Zanpakutō..." Yilong sighed sincerely. Many people have said this, but most of them were insincere praise.

As Yilong spoke, he kept staring at the "crescent moon" on the hilt of Hyorinmaru - it could be said that this was the true form of Hyorinmaru in the Shikai state, and it was the one that controlled the release of spirit particles to transform cold air and ice crystals, forming all kinds of icy shapes out of thin air.

It can be said that if Hitsugaya was allowed to grow on his own without the Zanpakuto, he would become an ice-type "mage".

In the long-term interaction between the god of death and the "Shūdachi", his own spiritual pressure will be combined with it to form his own unique [Zanpakuto], which can be said to be an invention that concretizes the god of death's ability.

The reason why it is in the form of a "knife" is entirely because its inventor, Nimeiya Oyue, is a master of knife forging. If he was a master of staff making, the Grim Reaper would now be using a magic staff, and Zaraki would also use a huge, sturdy magic staff to hit people...

When Hitsugaya heard Ichiryu's sigh, his face turned cold and he said, "Whether he is the strongest or not, you can feel it for yourself!"

In terms of training speed, Hitsugaya deserves the title of "genius", but...

When it comes to how powerful his "Zanpakuto" is, many Shinigami... especially those ordinary officials who are neither high nor low, have different opinions in their minds.

It's just that Hyorinmaru's title of "the strongest in the ice element" was recognized by Captain-General Yamamoto, so on the surface no one refuted it.

In the eyes of many Shinigami, Hyorinmaru's ability is too simple, it is just pure "cold" - although they cannot defeat Hitsugaya, they can comfort themselves in their hearts that "it is the difference in spiritual pressure."

After all, most of the Shinigami who can perform [Shikai] are at the level of "special ability Zanpakutō that can easily leap to victory", so naturally they "look down on" such a single function.

"No, I don't mean to question it. It is indeed the manifestation of an enviable ability..." Yilong said sincerely.

In fact, when you reach Yilong’s level, you will naturally understand that this pure function is the strongest!

Only this type of [Zanpakutō] can break through the limit of combat power when the spiritual pressure is locked to the extreme...

Hitsugaya also felt the sincerity in Ichiryuu's tone, so... he became a little more alert.

Hitsugaya was of course aware of some of the criticisms behind the scenes, but it did not affect his confidence.

In addition to his own personality, it was also because Captain Yamamoto often gave him guidance in private - he didn't really teach him anything like he would a disciple, but he often gave him guidance on his path of practice from a high-level perspective.

Captain Yamamoto of course highly praised and encouraged Hitsugaya, asking him to keep on his current path...

Probably in old man Yamamoto's opinion, when he can hold on for a few hundred or thousand years and his soul is gone, Hitsugaya should be able to take on the task - if Hitsugaya has old man Yamamoto's spiritual pressure, his [Hyorinmaru] can also exert the power to freeze the three realms!

A high level of spiritual pressure aptitude and pure Zanpakutō power are what old man Yamamoto's level of Shinigami considers to be the "strongest potential."

"The reason why some people think that your title of 'the strongest in ice' is unworthy of its reality is not because of your Zanpakuto's ability, but because... you are too weak. Originally, the title of 'the strongest in ice' was meant for your Hyorinmaru, not you." Yilong changed the subject at this time and shook his head as he spoke.

Hitsugaya's face darkened when he heard this...

Well, it is true that all those "strong potentials" now have nothing to do with Hitsugaya, who has third-rate spiritual power. Third-rate spiritual pressure is just starting out, or even still in the "early stages", which is a weak period for the pure elemental system.

"Very good, I don't know how big the gap is between you and Aizen..." In Hitsugaya's heart, Ichiryu's hatefulness has already caught up with Aizen!

"By the way...what did you think when you found out that all the Forty-Six had been killed by Aizen?" Yilong asked abruptly.

"What do you want to say?" Hitsugaya said without changing his expression.

"Do you have any idea of... [good kill]?" Yilong asked in a bewitching tone.

Hisagi, who was still present, could not help but reveal a look of surprise and doubt.

"What are you talking about? Do you think you can shake me like this?" Hitsugaya scolded.

"No way... Have you really forgotten your good friend who died due to the decision of the 46th Chamber? Or... is it because you wanted to forget this so much that when you found out that everyone in the 46th Chamber was killed, you directly attacked Aizen Sosuke?" Ichiryu said at this time.

“Friends?” Hisagi muttered at this point, as if he had remembered something.

Hitsugaya Toushirou is a genius. When Hisagi Shuhei, a graduate of the class that could be called a "gathering of the best", had already become a god of death, Hitsugaya Toushirou had not yet enrolled...

However, twenty years ago, when they were generally still chair officers, Hitsugaya became the captain - the previous captain, Shiba Isshin, disappeared at that time.
