CH 174

“What kind of hollow is that? Since you can say that it is very strong, it should not be a simple thing.”

“I also did not fight too fiercely with him. It was just a probing fight. However, he gave me a strong feeling. His ability is related to fire.”

“Fire?”

“Yes, it is a fire attack, but I am not sure if it is all his ability. However, even if I only see the ability he displayed, the general captain is definitely not his opponent.”

“So strong!”

“This is only when I saw him a hundred years ago. Who knows how he has become now. If he joins hands with Aizen…”

Muyang did not say the rest of the words, but everyone knew what he was going to say. If the two powerful guys joined hands, it would definitely be a disaster for Soul Society.

“Well, that’s it for now. You two go and check the information. If Soul Society has some information of Hueco Mundo, it will be good. At least we can get some information about the enemy in advance.”

“Yes.”

After drinking the tea in the cup, Kyouraku Shunsui picked up his Zanpakuto which was on the side and put it on his waist. Looking at Muyang who also stood up, he asked, “What are you going to do now, Kimura? Don’t tell me you really want to find a place to sleep?”

“How can it be! I want to go to the Spiritual Arts Academy to meet the instructor.”

“Indeed, you have not seen him for a hundred years. It is good for you to meet him now. Then I will go with Ukitake first.”

After all, he was a person who had experienced many things. Kyouraku Shunsui and the other two could understand Muyang’s mood at this time. They walked forward and patted Muyang on the shoulder, and the two left side by side.

“I really miss him!”

After sighing in a low voice, Muyang put his hand in his pocket and slowly walked toward the direction of the Spiritual Arts Academy. Around a hundred years had passed, and there was no hurry for this moment.

“How is it, Captain Aizen, is the experiment successful?”

“It can be considered a success.”

“…”

Looking at the huge figure that broke free from the restraint outside on the screen, Aizen’s mouth showed a smile.

“Next, just put it in the present world. Let’s check what level he can do.”

“Eh? Can such a mixed fish really do it? It feels like he can’t play any role at all.”

Ichimaru Gin looked at the hollow in the screen and said in a doubtful tone. This level of hollow is completely ineffective.

“No! This Hollow once killed Kurosaki Ichigo’s mother. If we let him go, we might catch someone we expected. Moreover, it is because he is a mixed fish hollow that he can reflect the strength of Hōgyoku.”

“Forget it, Captain Aizen, you always have your own ideas.”

“By the way, Gin, how is our companion?”

“Hey, do you mean that guy? He has been sleeping recently. Come to think of it, is that guy really as powerful as Captain Aizen you said?”

When he heard Aizen ask about that person, Ichimaru Gin’s face showed a trace of doubt. Anyway, he had no good impression of the arrogant and narcissistic guy.

“Lord Aizen’s words are unquestionable! You are too rude. Ichimaru Gin.”

“Huh?”

Ichimaru Gin turned to look at Tōsen Kaname standing on the other side of Aizen. His eyes that had been closed slightly opened a crack, and a cold light blue flashed out, revealing a dangerous breath.

“Well, really, so you are really boring.”

Just as the atmosphere gradually became tense, Ichimaru Gin suddenly closed his eyes again and showed his signature fox-like smile on his face. With a lazy tone, Ichimaru Gin turned around and waved his hand.

“Lord Aizen, Ichimaru Gin is really rude!”

“It’s okay, I don’t care.”

As if he did not notice the subtle relationship between Ichimaru Gin and Tōsen Kaname before, Aizen’s sight still stayed on the screen, and the expression on his face did not change at all, but in his eyes, there was a little imperceptible excitement.

The game of cat and mouse? It’s really interesting, I don’t know what kind of fun you will give me?

Was he aware of it?

Ichimaru Gin’s hands were curled in his sleeves, walking slowly in the corridor of Las Noches, but he always had a bad feeling in his heart. He always felt as if he was trapped in a net, a net woven by a smart hunter, tempting him to step inside step by step. When he walked into the net, the net would suddenly be closed and strangle himself.

A trace of haze slowly rose from Ichimaru Gin’s heart, and even his face, which had always maintained a smile, became a little gloomy.

……

Watanabe Ichiro was wandering on the road in boredom. After he and his uncle followed Aizen from Soul Society to Hueco Mundo, he had been in a boring state. Compared with Soul Society, only the Hueco Mundo in the desert was really too boring. Even in the Las Noches with artificial sky, it was the same lifeless.

“That is…”

Looking around, his eyes inadvertently saw Ichimaru Gin appearing at the intersection in front of him. Watanabe Ichiro’s heart could not help but move. To be honest, he was still unhappy with Ichimaru Gin, because although he was a genius, Ichimaru Gin was a genius than him, and Ichimaru Gin’s smile always made him feel uncomfortable.

Although there are all kinds of dissatisfaction with Ichimaru Gin in the heart, after all, they are under Lord Aizen and will fight together in the future. The relationship between them must be good. Besides, Ichimaru Gin’s position under Aizen is much higher than his.

Thinking about wanting to get familiar with Ichimaru Gin, Watanabe Ichiro walked behind Ichimaru Gin and said, “Hello, supermarket… Uh…”

Just as Watanabe Ichiro walked to the back of Ichimaru Gin and spoke, Ichimaru Gin body, who was slowly pacing, suddenly moved. Watanabe Ichiro only felt a blur in front of him. The next moment, a Zanpakuto was already on his throat, and a cold murderous intent came from the Zanpakuto.

“Gulu —“

A drop of cold sweat slid down from Watanabe Ichiro’s forehead. Feeling the cold aura on his neck, Watanabe Ichiro’s heart was cold. If the Ichimaru Gin’s Zanpakuto moved half an inch forward, he would be dead. There was no luck at all. In that moment just now, he did not see Gin’s movements clearly at all. Even his nerves did not react.

“Oh… So it’s Mr. Ichiro. I thought who it was.”

After seeing the face of the person in front of him, Ichimaru Gin put away his Zanpakuto and the fox-like smile returned to his face. But the smile that originally made Watanabe feel strange appeared very dangerous in his eyes.

“In the future, don’t suddenly get close from behind like this. Otherwise, you will die.”

After saying this to Watanabe Ichiro in a teasing tone, Ichimaru Gin didn’t care about him at all. He directly put Zanpakuto away and then turned to leave.

Turning around, Ichimaru Gin cheered for himself in his heart, recalling the first encounter with Ranju, a rare tenderness flashed in his slightly opened eyes, and then turned into firmness.

“It’s really interesting.”

In the empty hall, Aizen sat on a high stone seat, holding his chin with one hand, looking at Ichimaru Gin in the screen in front of him, and the corner of his mouth pulled out an unknown smile.

“Interesting? Shinigami, it is really a bad life.”

Step —Step —Step —Step —Step —

With a burst of footsteps, a figure walked to the side of Aizen.

Pure white flawless skin, handsome facial features, blood-red pupils, slender figure, and a small hole in the middle of the eyebrows. The face of the person had a high look, and the whole body exuded a proud atmosphere, full of a kind of evil charm.

“You are here, Erik.”

Aizen’s face remained unchanged, as if he had not heard the ridicule of the person who came, and his face still had that smile. Since coming to Hueco Mundo, his temperament had changed more and more. Now he was full of a confident temperament, as if everything was in his hands.

“Well, how are you preparing, Aizen.”

He reached out and took a glass of red wine. Vladimir Erik’s movements were very elegant, and with the handsome face like a demon, if it was a Human World, it could definitely charm a lot of girls.

“Don’t worry, there is still some time before the complete awakening of Hōgyoku. As long as Hōgyoku awakens, we will win this war without a doubt.”

“Hum, victory in the war? I don’t care about that at all. All I care about is one thing – kill the Shinigami named Muyang.”

“There is no conflict in our goal. Don’t worry, as long as the war begins, Muyang will definitely show up. Then, for our victory, cheers!”

He raised the glass in his hand and touched Aizen gently. There was a flash of excitement in Vladimir Erik’s eyes.

Modern world, Dingding District.

Bang!!!

“What are you doing, Hiyori? It hurts!”

“You deserve it! I asked you to find Kurosaki Ichigo, but you haven’t made any progress until now. I think you have wasted your time on that golden-haired Orihime!”

“Actually…”

“What! If you have something to say, say it quickly!”

“That Orihime is my first love.”

Bang

“It hurts, Hiyori! Don’t hit my nose!”

“I will beat you to death, but you still dare to say such shameless words!”
