Death: So I am a Quincy

When Ichigo Kurosaki saw the mask on Aizen's face and the familiar aura on his body, he couldn't help but feel surprised.

"This, this is..."

"Hollow Flash!" Aizen aimed it at Ichigo Kurosaki and fired a Hollow Flash.

In an emergency, Ichigo Kurosaki quickly used the Hollowification and Getsuga Tensho again to start fighting against this force.

But even so, Ichigo Kurosaki himself was blown away by the Hollow Flash released by Aizen.

Aizen also took the opportunity to come to Shihouin Yoruichi's side and quietly captured Amemiya Tsuyoshi.

"Not good!" Yoruichi Shihouin, who was under the spell of Mirror Flower and Water Moon, did not notice that Amemiya had been captured. When she realized this, Amemiya had already been strangled by Aizen and appeared in the distance.

"Come on, Amamiya Tsutomu, become the last nourishment for the Hogyoku!" Aizen smiled and said impatiently.

The white substance had completely wrapped around Amemiya's entire head. At the same time, Amemiya's body parts also began to change. White substance emerged from the wound on his waist, repairing the wound. His hands and feet also began to become like beasts, growing sharp claws.

Just when Aizen was about to absorb the hollowed-out Amemiya Tsutomu into the Hogyoku, a dazzling green light suddenly emerged from Amemiya Tsutomu's chest. In just a moment, all the hollowed-out matter in Amemiya Tsutomu's body was absorbed into the green light on his chest.

Afterwards, Amemiya returned to normal.

"How is this possible! Why would the hollowing stop?" Aizen also began to not understand what was happening before his eyes. He frantically urged the Hogyoku to continue hollowing out Amemiya Tsutomu, but there was no response. Now there was no trace of the hollow characteristics on Amemiya Tsutomu's body.

After Kurosaki Ichigo recovered, he saw Aizen strangling Amamiya Tsutomu's neck, and he released his strongest black Getsuga Tensho without hesitation, aiming at Aizen. Because Amamiya Tsutomu was still in Aizen's hand, Kurosaki Ichigo compressed Getsuga Tensho's slash so that it would not affect Amamiya Tsutomu.

"Getsuga, Tensho!" After Kurosaki Ichigo approached Aizen, he aimed directly at Aizen at close range and released Getsuga Tensho.

Aizen was so angry that he didn't notice Kurosaki Ichigo himself and was successfully hit by him.

When Shihouin Yoruichi saw this situation, she snatched Amemiya Tsutomu from Aizen and left here.

"Ichigo, I leave this place to you. I'll take them away!" Shihouin Yoruichi came to the seriously injured Ichimaru Gin, hugged one in each hand, and left the battlefield.

After hearing Aizen personally admit that Amemiya Tsutomu and Ichimaru Gin almost killed him, Shihouin Yoruichi began to believe what Ichimaru Tsutomu said about Marugin being his companion.

On the way back, Shihouin Yoruichi met Urahara Kisuke and quickly called out to him.

"Kisuke, come back with me first. There's something strange about Amemiya. Just now, Aizen forcefully turned him into a hollow. He wanted to absorb him into the Hogyoku, but Amemiya's originally completely hollowed body suddenly became normal. Now he's in a coma. Come and check him out!"

"What? Hollowfication?! Aizen wants to absorb him into the Hogyoku?!" Urahara Kisuke was shocked. He knew that there was a half-finished Hogyoku in Amemiya Tsutomu's body. If it was absorbed by Aizen, it would be the end. Fortunately, Amemiya Tsutomu was rescued. Now Aizen's Hogyoku seems to be just one step short of success.

Then Urahara Kisuke began to follow Shihouin Yoruichi back to where Unohana Retsu and the others were.

"I understand. I will ask Mr. Isshin to help Mr. Kurosaki. Let's go back and check first. But Miss Yoruichi, why did you bring Gin Ichimaru back?" Urahara Kisuke looked at Gin Ichimaru who was seriously injured in Shihouin Yoruichi's hands, and asked in confusion.

"Amemiya said that Gin Ichimaru was his companion, and Aizen also admitted it himself. Amemiya and Gin Ichimaru once put Aizen in danger of death. That's why I brought this guy back. If it's true, it would be very shocking." Shihouin Yoruichi replied in a deep voice.

"Ichimaru Gin is actually a companion? Is he an undercover agent?!" Urahara Kisuke could only guess, "And the two of them actually put Aizen in danger of death?! How did they do that? How did Aizen escape the crisis of death?"

Urahara Kisuke's questions kept coming to Shihouin Yoruichi like cannonballs, making Shihouin Yoruichi impatient.

"How should I know! Now is the time to check what's going on with Amemiya himself. As for what happened, we'll know after Ichimaru Gin wakes up." Shihouin Yoruichi threw Amemiya to Urahara Kisuke, and the two of them accelerated towards the outer edge of the barrier.

After Urahara Kisuke took over Amemiya Miyako, the first thing he did was not to check Amemiya Miyako's body for any abnormalities, but to check if the aura of the Hogyoku had leaked out. However, what reassured Urahara Kisuke was that Amemiya Miyako did not have any aura of the Hogyoku on his body.

Judging from what Shihouin Yoruichi said, Aizen should not have obtained the complete form of the Hogyoku, which means that the Hogyoku should still be in Amemiya Tou's body.

Rukia was waiting anxiously outside the barrier. Just now, the captain-general was seriously injured and was brought back by Urahara Kisuke. She didn't dare to think about what the consequences would be for Amemiya.

When she finally saw two familiar figures in the distance, Rukia hurried over to greet them.

"Tou!" Rukia saw the unconscious Amemiya Tou in Urahara Kisuke's hand and asked anxiously: "Urahara, what happened to Tou? Why is he unconscious? Is it caused by Aizen?"

"Rukia, calm down. Look at Amemiya Tou's body. There are no major wounds." Kuchiki Byakuya said calmly.

"Yes, is that so..." Rukia began to check the injuries on Amemiya's body. After finding that there were no wounds, she breathed a sigh of relief.

"Then why are they all unconscious?" Rukia asked.

"Sorry, Miss Rukia, give me some time. I also need to check Mr. Amamiya carefully." Urahara Kisuke said in a deep voice.

"Yoruichi Shihoin, why did you bring the enemy back?" Kuchiki Byakuya noticed the Ichimaru Gin in Yoruichi Shihoin's hand and asked seriously.

"Ichimaru, Gin?!" Everyone noticed the seriously injured Ichimaru Gin in Shifengyuan Yoruichi's hands and shouted in surprise.

"I am also confused about this matter, but now he is the only one who can explain it for us. Inoue, please give this guy the minimum treatment, as long as he can regain consciousness and speak." Shifengyuan Yoruichi shouted to Inoue Orihime in the distance.

"Don't stop me first. I heard from Aizen that it was Amemiya and Ichimaru Gin who stopped Aizen and even put him in danger of death. I don't think Aizen would lie to me about such a thing, so we have to ask clearly what happened to Ichimaru Gin." Shihouin Yoruichi waved her hand and said.

“Wow, it’s possible that just two people were able to accomplish something that the entire Soul Society couldn’t do? That’s definitely worth knowing more about.” Kurotsuchi Mayuri said with a smile.

After hearing what Shifengyuan said, everyone agreed with this. The most important thing was that the injuries of the others had begun to stabilize and they were no longer in danger of death, so they could take a break for a while.

After hearing this, Orihime Inoue came to the unconscious Gin Ichimaru who had fallen down. Seeing the injuries on Gin's body and his completely missing left arm, she couldn't help but cover her mouth.

"Inoue, there's no need to treat his arm for now. I've already stopped the injury. Let's heal the long wound on his body first. Now we can't be sure whether he is our companion or not, so just make him regain consciousness." Shihouin Yoruichi replied.

"I, I understand." Inoue Orihime subconsciously wanted to restore Ichimaru Gin's body to full health, but after hearing what Shihouin Yoruichi said, she also decided to obey.

Under Orihime Inoue's treatment, Gin Ichimaru's eyelids began to tremble slightly, and then he slowly opened his eyes and saw Orihime Inoue who was treating him.

"It's you, the human girl... It seems I have been rescued." Gin Ichimaru realized his situation, and said in a trance and helpless manner.

Chapter 190 The hidden truth

"Don't be happy too soon. It's up to us to judge whether you are a companion or not. Tell us what you know first." Shifengyuan Yoruichi frowned.

"Okay, okay, Aizen probably hates me to the core, so there's no point in hiding it any longer. What do you want to hear?" Ichimaru Gin said easily. His years of undercover life were finally over. Although he didn't achieve his goal, Ichimaru Gin could finally restore his true appearance.

"Aizen said that you and Amemiya had killed him once. What's going on?" Shihouin Yoruichi was also very confused. Since Aizen admitted it himself, how did Aizen himself come back to life?

"The story begins in Hueco Mundo... At that time, Amemiya suddenly broke into Aizen's laboratory and attacked me with his Zanpakutō. I thought he wanted to seal my Zanpakutō. After all, I was the first one to seriously injure him in Soul Society." Gin Ichimaru replied.

"But in Hueco Mundo, Amemiya Tsutomu did not seal my Zanpakutō. Instead, he used the special ability of his Zanpakutō to help me become immune to the influence of Kyoka Suigetsu."

"You said Amemiya can help you be immune to the influence of Kyoka Suigetsu? How did you do that?" Everyone was shocked. If he had this ability, wouldn't it be better to help the captains of Soul Society to fight Aizen? Why did he only tell Gin Ichimaru?

"I don't know either. This seems to be his ability after Bankai."

"Later in the real world, Amemiya set up a barrier, and then I really knew his plan. I don't know how he found out that I was an undercover agent, and wanted to join me in a surprise attack on Aizen. I obviously didn't tell anyone..." Ichimaru Gin said helplessly.

No one expected that Gin Ichimaru, one of Aizen's proud subordinates, was actually the biggest undercover agent.

"You don't know how powerful Aizen is, so you think you can defeat him as long as you crack the Kyoka Suigetsu. But facts have also proved that Aizen is not powerful because of the Kyoka Suigetsu, but because the Kyoka Suigetsu is powerful in his hands. In this war, Aizen almost defeated everyone in Soul Society alone."

"After years of undercover work, I know the only way to crack the Kyoka Suigetsu, which is to touch the blade of the Kyoka Suigetsu before it activates. This is information only I know. Originally, I planned to wait for Aizen to relax his vigilance, then crack the Kyoka Suigetsu and kill Aizen."

"However, the appearance of Amamiya Tsutomu gave me a better opportunity. After all, Aizen is a very cautious person and has never let anyone touch his blade. And the real function of my Bankai, the God-killing Spear, is that it turns into ash at the moment of extension and contraction, and then a deadly toxin that can dissolve cells appears inside the blade."

"This is information that Aizen doesn't even know."

"With the help of Amemiya, I successfully saw the real position of Captain Aizen. When I pretended to knock Amemiya down, Aizen finally let down his last bit of vigilance. He thought I was still under his hypnosis, so he was very confident in me. So I aimed my God Killing Gun at Aizen and successfully left a fragment of my Zanpakuto on his chest."

Hearing this, everyone couldn't help but take a deep breath. They didn't expect that just two people could accomplish something that the Gotei 13 couldn't do.

"The plan was indeed successful. Captain Aizen's entire chest was melted by my poison. The Hogyoku on his body was also taken away by me and Amamiya respectively. Theoretically, there should be no chance. But..." Ichimaru Gin showed an unwilling expression when he mentioned this.

"but?"

"I didn't expect that Captain Aizen would secretly transform himself into a Hollow... With Aizen's personality, he would not rely on the power of failure to evolve himself, because he has a better Hougyoku."

"But it might be because the Hougyoku was taken away that Aizen took the risk and Hollowed himself. It was the strongest Hollow material made from a part of the body of the Ten Espada. It repaired Aizen's tattered body in an instant."

"Hollowification... high-speed regeneration?!" Urahara Kisuke said in surprise while examining Amamiya Tou's body.

"Yes, the high-speed regeneration restored his shattered body. But Aizen also became like a real beast due to the violent consciousness of the Hollow. But before he lost consciousness, he still snatched the Hougyoku from my hand."

"But at this point, we still have a chance, and that is to completely destroy the completely hollowed-out Aizen. And the one who can do this is Amamiya Tsutomu."

"All? Why?" Rukia was puzzled.

"Because Amemiya is still hiding his biggest secret. I only know this based on what Aizen said. Amemiya will use the power of the Quincy. He may be a Quincy." Ichimaru Gin said in a deep voice.

Urahara Kisuke was not very surprised by this matter, because he had long guessed that Amemiya Tsutomu might be a Quincy, but how to maintain the ability of a Quincy after becoming a soul was what puzzled Urahara Kisuke.

"Wow, you're really a Quincy, right? I thought Hueco Mundo seemed to be using spirit particle control at that time." Kurotsuchi Mayuri stroked his chin and said with interest, "Hey, kid, you should know something too."

Ishida Uryu didn't say anything, just shook his head and remained silent.

"Quincy? How is that possible? Even though Tsutomu's Shikai and Bankai are a bit similar to those of a Quincy, his real ability is to control the spiritual energy in his body to fight. Controlling the spirit particles in the atmosphere to fight is only an ability after Bankai, right?" Rukia showed an incredible expression.

"Ms. Rukia, let's talk about this later. Now we still have to understand the matter of Aizen first." Urahara Kisuke said in a deep voice, looking at Ichimaru Gin, motioning him to continue.

"The power of a completely hollowed-out Aizen is extremely violent. Even my God-killing Gun will be useless because his high-speed regeneration ability after hollowing is extremely terrifying. Aizen himself is a god of death with enormous spiritual pressure." Ichimaru Gin said unwillingly.

"But Amamiya used Quincy's moves, which could effectively suppress Aizen's high-speed regeneration ability after he became a Hollow. So he began to use all his strength to deal with Aizen after he became a Hollow."

"The battle was indeed one-sided. Although Aizen became more powerful after his Hollowification, his battle awareness was not as good as before. So Amamiya seized the opportunity and used his most powerful arrow to hit him in one fell swoop. I thought it was really over, but I didn't expect..."

"Aizen actually relied on Amemiya's power to suppress the Hollow, completely tamed the Hollow in his body, mastered the power of the Hollow, and became even more powerful. The two of us have no way to deal with him..."

"He's right. I saw Aizen use his hollow form to deal with Ichigo." Shihouin Yoruichi added.

After hearing what happened, everyone finally understood what happened. Some were surprised and admired Ichimaru Gin and Amemiya, while others were wary of Aizen's meticulous planning.

"What about you, Gin Ichimaru, why on earth did you betray Aizen?" asked Byakuya Kuchiki calmly.

"I never pledged allegiance to him from the beginning, so how can I talk about betrayal?" Ichimaru Gin said frankly, then looked in a certain direction and truly stated the reason why he defected to Aizen.

"When I was very young, I saw in Rukongai that Aizen absorbed souls with the potential to be Shinigami to serve as nutrients for the Hogyoku. And Rangiku also had something taken away from her by Aizen..."

Gin Ichimaru didn't know that what was taken away from Rangiku Matsumoto was the Soul King's fingertip, but this did not prevent him from remembering this scene firmly in his heart, and planting the seeds of hostility towards Aizen.

"From that time on, I knew... Aizen is the boss, I want to kill this guy!" At this moment, Ichimaru Gin's tone was extremely cold, like a poisonous snake, revealing his hostility towards Aizen.

At this moment, a figure could no longer restrain himself and stepped forward to hug Ichimaru Gin himself.

"Gin..." The person who came was Matsumoto Rangiku. Her injuries were not very serious, so after simple treatment from Unohana Retsu and the others, she was the first to regain consciousness. She fell to the ground and listened to everything Gin Ichimaru said.

"So you're awake... I'm sorry, Rangiku, I failed and still didn't get back what was taken away from you..." Gin Ichimaru said helplessly as he looked at Matsumoto Rangiku who was hugging him tightly.

"You idiot...you always act on your own..."

"But I just..."

'I like that about you.'

Chapter 191 Preventing Souls from Committing Suicide

After listening to Gin Ichimaru's confession, Rukia no longer paid attention to Gin Ichimaru, but came to Amamiya Miyabi.

"What's wrong, Urahara? Why are you still unconscious?" Rukia came over and asked.

"The situation is a bit bad. The aura in Amemiya-kun's body is very strange. Although there is no phenomenon of hollowing, he has the spiritual pressure of a hollow. Now his aura is very complicated, and I don't know how to solve this situation." Urahara Kisuke said with cold sweat.

"Void?"

"Aizen's Hogyoku seems to be just one step away from completion, so Aizen hollowed out Amemiya Tsu, hoping that Amemiya Tsu would become the final nourishment for the Hogyoku." Ichimaru Gin added, "Also, from what Aizen said, Hollows are extremely poisonous to Quincies, so Amemiya Tsu lost his ability to resist."

"What did you say? Aizen was forced to become a Hollow?!" Rukia heard this and said, "Urahara, you have a way, right? I know that you were the one who solved the Hollows of Makoto Hirako and others!"

"Although Aizen used the Hogyoku to force Amemiya to become hollow, in the end, the hollowed matter seemed to be all absorbed into Amemiya's body. There must be some invisible force helping him." Shihouin Yoruichi witnessed this scene and said to everyone.

"Oh, it's probably the Hogyoku." Kurotsuchi Mayuri guessed.

"Really... Amamiya-kun has already told you." Urahara Kisuke said with a wry smile, "Captain Nirvana is right, it should be the Hogyoku that helped Amamiya-kun and suppressed the Hollowification. My Hogyoku is made of Hollows, so it is normal for it to desire the energy of Hollows."

"But, the Hogyoku absorbed the energy of the Hollow, so Amemiya-kun should have returned to normal. Why is he still unconscious now..." Urahara Kisuke looked at Amemiya Tsutomu in confusion.

Just when everyone was puzzled, Rukia suddenly shouted anxiously: "Urahara! Look at Miyabi's breasts!"

Urahara Kisuke quickly looked at Amamiya Tsutomu who was lying on the ground, and found that a small black hole had appeared on his chest, and the blue veins around the black hole were constantly throbbing.

"How is this possible! This is, a hollow cave!"

"Hey, Kisuke. The previous method should be useful. It's the method you used to prevent Hirako and Mako and others from committing suicide after their souls became Hollows." As an eyewitness to the Hollowization incident a hundred years ago, Shihouin Yoruichi quickly proposed this method.

"Hurry up, Urahara!" Rukia urged.

"…To be honest, I'm not sure if this method is effective." Urahara Kisuke said hesitantly.

"Why?!"

"Brother Amemiya's existence is very special. He is both a god of death and a Quincy. It is incredible that he can possess two powers at the same time. But the power of the Hollow is extremely poisonous to the Quincy."

"The balance between the two, which were originally safe and sound, was broken by the power of the Hollows. And Mr. Hirako a hundred years ago was just a simple Shinigami mixed with the power of the Hollows, so he was able to use the power of the Quincies and the souls of humans to prevent the souls from committing suicide."

"But Amamiya-san already has the power of a Shinigami, a Quincy, and a Hollow. If I only rely on the power of human souls, I don't know if I can suppress his Hollowification."

"How could this happen..." Rukia said absentmindedly.

"Don't hesitate, Kisuke, just give it a try first." Shihouin Yoruichi said with a frown.

Urahara Kisuke was lost in thought at this moment, recalling the two special cases of hollow beings he had dealt with.
