The journey from the Quincy

Your mentor, Kisuke Urahara, is one of the smartest people in the world. He knows a lot about many things. He is dissatisfied with the current world, but he dare not change it easily, and even does not allow anyone else to act rashly.

They know everything and understand everything, but they tell you nothing, nor do they want you to know more in advance. They are just busy using your amazing potential and powerful fighting power to serve the God of Death.

And without you knowing anything, you will establish a hilarious comradeship with the young Grim Reapers, and then tie you firmly to the chariot of the Grim Reaper.

As a gifted human being, you are actually not stupid, and you are very sensitive inside, but you voluntarily let yourself be manipulated and used by the evil gods of death. Even if everything is kept in the dark, you are willing to be kept in the dark, not caring about anything, and being an ostrich buried in the ground, deceiving yourself.

After all, you are just a brainless thug now, so what qualifications do you have to ask me for more information?"

Bai Yuetong said this in a deliberately provocative tone.

Anger will make Ichigo Kurosaki lose his mind, and it will be much easier to face Ichigo who has lost his composure when the fight starts later. Moreover, Ichigo Kurosaki, who has regained his sanity after the war, will have to get rid of his ostrich mentality and get to the bottom of his own life experience.

By then, he will find that no matter who is more evil or more righteous between the Shinigami and the Quincy, it is actually not that important to Ichigo Kurosaki, who only wants to protect his family and friends.

By then, the most important thing is that Youhabach is the enemy who killed his mother. Youhabach wants to destroy the current world. If he wants to protect his family and friends, then Youhabach is the one he must stop or even eliminate.

Bai Yue Tong seems to be standing on the Quincy's side to diss the Shinigami, and to sow discord between Ichigo Kurosaki and hope that Ichigo Kurosaki will surrender with courtesy after learning more in the future. In fact, she hopes that Ichigo Kurosaki will grow up quickly and defeat his old boss Yohabach as soon as possible, and become the new generation of Ping Account Great Sage.

If we talk about what kind of mentality Shiratsuki Hitomi has towards Ichigo Kurosaki at this moment, it is actually somewhat similar to that of Gin Ichimaru who is beside Aizen, just like Gin Ichimaru is looking forward to Ichigo Kurosaki's growth.

However, unlike Ichimaru Gin, Shirayuki Hitomi, who is bent on plunder, is destined to stand on the opposite side of Kurosaki Ichigo, who is determined to protect.

Be it the Shinigami or the Quincy, the senior leaders of both sides are not good birds to Bai Yuetong, and it would be best if they all died.

However, for Bai Yuetong, the top priority now is to survive. Whether Yhwach becomes Saint or destroys the world in the future, it will directly endanger her life.

So even though Bai Yuetong actually felt a little grateful towards Yhwach, she still hoped that Lao Deng would die quickly.

"Then I will knock you down and make you tell me every word! Yueya - Tianchong -!"

The furious Kurosaki Ichigo immediately used Bankai, then jumped up, raised Tensa Zangetsu after Bankai, and chopped down fiercely.

The pitch-black crescent was like a poisonous snake with black flames burning all over its body, coiling around the blade. Accompanied by the anger of its owner, Ichigo Kurosaki, it coiled around Tensa Zangetsu and arched up to shoot out, very swiftly and suddenly, baring its fangs and spewing venom at Bai Yuetong, biting her.

However, Bai Yuetong simply raised her left hand above her head and blocked the black sharp blade that was swinging from above.

"what?!"

Ichigo Kurosaki's mouth opened slightly.

He couldn't cut at all. It felt just like the first time Kenpachi Zaraki was unable to break through the spiritual pressure on the other person's body.

No, not only that, the feeling of chopping it off is a bit like the steel skin of an Arrancar. It's not just the spiritual pressure on the surface of the body, the hardness of this guy's skin is also terrifying and extremely tough.

Is this guy really a human being with flesh and blood? Is he really a Quincy?

"You always subconsciously hold back. You are so gentle, Kurosaki Ichigo. Even when facing an enemy that makes you angry, you are unwilling to kill him. You are so kind that I don't know what to say."

Bai Yuetong exerted a little force and used the back of her hand to push Tensa Zangetsu away, knocking Kurosaki Ichigo away.

He could actually feel that Kurosaki Ichigo had not used all his strength. Even though he was driven by anger, he still held back. It seemed that Kurosaki Ichigo had not completely lost his mind.

"Bankai?"

When Jilujie saw Tensa Zangetsu, he couldn't help but take out the star seal.

"No need to try. Kurosaki Ichigo has a special component and possesses multiple powers at the same time. The Bankai he is using at the moment is also different from the Zanpakutō Bankai of a normal Shinigami. Rather than wasting effort on Kurosaki Ichigo, it is better to save the Star Seal for an opponent in need."

Bai Yuetong stopped Jilujie's useless efforts.

"I see. Kurosaki Ichigo is a tough opponent indeed. He is worthy of being the leader of the five special combat powers."

Jilujie knew that Bai Yuetong would not do anything without a purpose, but he did not put away the star seal. Instead, he turned his attention to another area.

……

Behind the ruins, Urahara Kisuke was crouching and secretly watching the battle. At this moment, he also received a call from Akon and was in real-time contact with the Soul Society.

"Ah! Hello, Mr. Akon. Long time no see. How are you doing over there?"

"Ah? Are you talking about me? I'm not bad at all... Is there anything wrong with your ears? Didn't I say it was an emergency? Did you hear what people were saying? I need to talk to Ichigo Kurosaki about something. He must be near you, right? Ask him to come and listen!"

Ajin yelled angrily.

In his opinion, Soul Society is in a critical moment of survival and must ask for help from Kurosaki Ichigo. Only Kurosaki Ichigo can turn the tide and save Soul Society from its current dire straits.

"Mr. Kurosaki? I'm afraid there's nothing we can do..."

"why?"

"Kurosaki-san is currently fighting the Quincy leader of the Hueco Mundo hunting force, and a Quincy leader who looks significantly more powerful.

Furthermore, that officer seemed to have recruited the 30th Espada, who had once served under Aizen, to surrender."

Urahara Kisuke said with a serious expression.

Fighting Quincy in Hueco Mundo? What on earth is going on?

The members of the 12th Division were all shocked when they heard the news. Could it be that the Quincy had also taken action in Hueco Mundo? Could it be that Ichigo Kurosaki went to Hueco Mundo because he noticed this?

Even earlier than the Death God? How is this possible!

Ajin slammed his hands on the table and broke out in a cold sweat. The enemy was more prepared than he had imagined, and the Shinigami's intelligence work on the war was too backward.

Although he had heard of Ichigo Kurosaki's deeds, he did not expect that Ichigo Kurosaki was such an unpredictable man. He seemed more reliable than most Shinigami.

Chapter 17 Urahara Kisuke's Decision

"So how's the battle going?"

Akon held his breath.

Two powerful Quincy cadres, plus an Arrancar of Vashtod's level, such a lineup, and what seemed to be an unethical group fight, made Akon worry for Kurosaki Ichigo.

"It's not optimistic. Especially the cadre who just appeared. Although he is obviously stronger than the previous Quincy, he did not take the initiative to attack. He was just passively defending. However, he was constantly launching psychological offensives, as if deliberately angering Mr. Kurosaki.

And he has been trying to sow discord between Mr. Kurosaki and the Shinigami, which is not good."

Urahara Kisuke frowned, “However, although Mr. Kurosaki is a little upset, he has not lost his mind.

Moreover, the opponent's special means seemed unable to seal Mr. Kurosaki's Bankai, so he stopped his companions from performing it, apparently not wanting to waste their efforts on Mr. Kurosaki."

Just because it's useless against Ichigo Kurosaki doesn't mean it's useless against him. Urahara Kisuke is having a headache. It seems like the other party wants to leave the trick to him.

"What? It didn't work?"

Akon's eyes widened, and then he was delighted and begged, "Can you let Kurosaki Ichigo leave the Hueco Mundo battlefield immediately and support Soul Society? Please!"

"Ah? Please don't force me. That kind of battle is not something you can just intervene in casually."

Urahara Kisuke's eyes were gloomy. "I know someone has invaded Soul Society. The fact that you took the initiative to contact us means that things must be complicated. The more this is the case, the more we cannot let Mr. Kurosaki rush into the battlefield without any preparation.

Let's go back to the original question. What is the situation on your side? "

The reason why he said this was not out of love for Ichigo Kurosaki, but out of fear.

Just now, Bai Yuetong's provocation of Kurosaki Ichigo and her ambiguous attitude of only defending and not attacking made Urahara Kisuke think a lot at once, and his vigilance instantly increased.

He was even considering the worst-case scenario, which was how to counter Ichigo Kurosaki if he turned against the God of Death.

Although it was unkind to think so, he couldn't rule out the possibility.

Ichigo Kurosaki only needs to fight bravely on the front line, but Kisuke Urahara has a lot to think about.

For example, the enemy captured Ichigo Kurosaki and brainwashed him, turning him into a vanguard for invading Soul Society.

This situation is not impossible. No matter how much Ichigo Kurosaki wants to protect and no matter how firmly he stands on the side of the God of Death, there are some things that are not decided by his own will. Once he falls into the enemy's trap and is caught, he will inevitably face a terrible situation.

Therefore, those who were originally inclined to let Ichigo Kurosaki go to Soul Society to save Kisuke Urahara and risk his life to rescue the god of death, now do not want Ichigo Kurosaki to leave Hueco Mundo and go to Soul Society directly without his position and identity being clear.

If they are deceived by an enemy with unknown intelligence, or even forcibly brainwashed after being captured, the battle situation will become even worse.

"But... Damn it! So far, our losses are as follows: 2,245 members of the Reiatsu Vanishing Team and one vice-captain. The value is increasing every second, so just use this data as a reference. Most buildings have collapsed, and the extent of the damage is incalculable."

Akon slammed the table and could only broadcast the report with a heavy heart, "There are at least sixteen people among the enemy with combat capabilities equal to or greater than the captain. They call themselves the Stern Cross Knights and wear the unique white garb of the Quincies. Moreover, the enemy has suffered zero damage, and we have no reports of any victory."

"What about the enemy's capabilities?"

Urahara Kisuke's heart skipped a beat.

He didn't want Ichigo Kurosaki to be used by the enemy, so if the situation didn't become too dire, he would rather the Soul Society's Shinigami continued to sacrifice themselves than not let him miss Ichigo Kurosaki.

But if Soul Society was completely destroyed in this battle, that outcome would be unacceptable to him.

And he gradually came to realize that it seemed that the enemy took advantage of Ichigo Kurosaki being dragged in the Hueco Mundo to seize the opportunity to raid Soul Society's Soul Society.

"I'm sorry, except that the enemy is a Quincy, the R&D Department has not provided any other information. The only thing we know is that the enemy has the ability to take away Bankai."

Akin said with some shame.

"So who are the ones whose Bankai has been taken away?"

Urahara Kisuke's pupils tightened.

If Captain-General Yamamoto's Bankai is taken away...

"Those whose Bankai have been taken away on the battlefield include the captains of the 2nd, 6th, 7th, and 10th squads, and perhaps the vice-captain of the 1st squad, Sparrowbe, who has already died in battle."

Akin answered.

“That’s terrible~”

Although Urahara Kisuke said "bad", he actually breathed a sigh of relief, his heart finally at ease.

"If that's the case, I might be able to find a way to have Mr. Kurosaki rush to Soul Society for support."

After weighing the pros and cons, Urahara Kisuke decided to at least use Ichigo Kurosaki's fighting power to help Soul Society survive this battle, or at least not suffer too great losses.

At the same time, he was secretly making some gadgets, which, if his speculation was correct, might come in handy soon.

"Really? That's great!"

Ajin was overjoyed.

"If the situation is too dire, perhaps we can ask Captain Kensei Rokuguruma of the 9th Division to try Bankai tactics."

Urahara Kisuke thought for a moment and decided to let Kensei test the waters.

"Captain Rokuche? I see!"

Akon thought about the peculiarities of Kensei Muguruma compared to other captains. After much thought, perhaps the only special thing was that he was once a victim of Aizen's hollowification experiment.

Considering that Ichigo Kurosaki's Bankai cannot be taken away, and Ichigo Kurosaki has the ability to become a Hollow, that is to say, he has the power of Hollow in his body, perhaps he can prevent his Bankai from being taken away by the enemy.

"Got you."

At this moment, Kiruge's sinister voice sounded.

Rumble——!

The azure blue spirit sword swung down with all its might, creating a deep pit on the spot.

However, when the smoke and dust cleared, Urahara Kisuke was not cut in half on the spot, but had already hidden to the other side.

"So dangerous, so dangerous!"

However, Pei Xue, who had been with Urahara Kisuke, was so scared that he ran away quickly, and before running away, he did not forget to kick Dondechaka away.

"Mr. Urahara? Great, you're okay."

Ichigo Kurosaki, who was still attacking Byakutsuki Hitomi, saw Urahara Kisuke being attacked, and he actually left the battlefield and ran over, saying with concern.

It was obvious that Bai Yuetong's "provocation" did not work.

Just like Ginjo Kūgo once told Kurosaki Ichigo about the darkness of Soul Society and the sinisterness of Ukitake Jushiro, but Kurosaki Ichigo had his own judgment.

Ichigo Kurosaki has never lost a companion, so he is more willing to believe in the god of death. Even if someone is hiding something from him, he will feel from the bottom of his heart that the other party has his own difficulties.

"Mr. Kurosaki, we should leave Hueco Mundo. This is an emergency, and we need you to go to Soul Society immediately."

Urahara Kisuke raised his staff and was actually ready to pass through the gate, and a huge passage appeared behind him.

"Stop! Do you think I will let you go to Soul Society for reinforcements?"

Kielge was furious, and was about to release the "prison" to stop Kurosaki Ichigo. Even if he might be broken through by Kurosaki Ichigo in the end, he could at least stop him for a while.
