Chapter 672 - Is Your Elder Brother Very Honorable?
Human World.
Two months later.
An ordinary high school in Karakura Town.
An orange-haired boy idly spun the pen in his hand and looked at the sky outside the window in boredom. Compared to the past, his thoughts were slightly different.
It was Kurosaki Ichigo.
In the past two months, Kurosaki Ichigos own worldview had undergone a huge upheaval. He came into contact with a s.h.i.+nigami, who was called Kuchiki Rukia, and obtained s.h.i.+nigamis power. He became a s.h.i.+nigami agent, accepting the duty of killing Hollow and protecting the Human World.
To tell the truth, Kurosaki Ichigo felt that it was not bad.
At least he didnt have to live a confused life like in the past.
Recently, Kurosaki Ichigo had come into contact with a Quincy, Is.h.i.+da Uryu, a very stubborn and proud guy. After the two people worked together to beat back a Gillian-cla.s.s Menos, their relations.h.i.+p became much better.
Speaking of which, although there were some twists and turns in his life as s.h.i.+nigami, it was more interesting than in the past. Kurosaki Ichigo also slowly accepted his ident.i.ty as s.h.i.+nigami.
The only problem was
At this time, Kuchiki Rukias mood became a little strange. She was not as happy as she used to be. She even liked to be alone in a daze. Occasionally, some old-fas.h.i.+oned words would appear, which made Kurosaki Ichigo feel a little unaccustomed.
Good afternoon, Cla.s.smate Ichigo!
A lively girl suddenly appeared beside Kurosaki Ichigo. It frightened him making him hurriedly grab the pen in his hand, but a sweet smile came into his eyes.
Ah, Inoue, dont suddenly appear!
Kurosaki Ichigo couldnt help but shake his head and relax a little. Ever since he became s.h.i.+nigami, his mental state was obviously a little tense.
This girl was Kurosaki Ichigos friend, Orihime Inoue.
Similarly, she was one of the people who knew Kurosaki Ichigos ident.i.ty.
Inoue scratched the back of her head and asked with a smile, Didnt Cla.s.smate Rukia come today? I feel like she has been frequently on leave these past few days! Do you want to pay her a visit after school?
Mm
Kurosaki Ichigo nodded without saying anything, then shook his head hurriedly, Oh, theres no need. That fellow Rukia doesnt seem to like being disturbed Ill be leaving first!
How could it be possible for someone to visit Rukia?
Now, Kuchiki Rukia was living in the wardrobe of his room!
It was just that recently, Rukias condition was indeed somewhat wrong. Ichigo frowned and said goodbye to Inoue and left the school.
Karakura Town.
At Kurosakis house.
Kuchiki Rukia sat in Kurosaki Ichigos room. She wrote a secret letter with a heavy expression. She left the letter on the table and left the place she had lived in for two months.
She could not continue.
Since she shared s.h.i.+nigamis spiritual power with Kurosaki Ichigo, she had already violated s.h.i.+nigamis rules. This was something that Seireiteis Gotei 13 absolutely could not violate.
Moreover
Kuchiki Rukia met the other s.h.i.+nigami.
The matter of her sharing s.h.i.+nigamis spiritual power with Kurosaki Ichigo had been exposed. Gotei 13 would probably send someone to deal with it soon Once this matter spread to Soul Society, her strict and almost flawless elder brother, Kuchiki Byakuya, would definitely deal with her, right?
The family style of the Kuchiki clan
They would definitely not allow such a shameful person like her!
Especially since she had been raised by Kuchiki Byakuya with a strict att.i.tude, Rukia was very clear about what her adopted brother would do
Kuchiki Byakuya would not even let her, his younger sister, go. How could he let Kurosaki Ichigo go? At that time, in order to destroy her sisters shameful past
Kurosaki Ichigo would fall into danger!
During this period of time, Kuchiki Rukia was actually very happy.
Compared to the complicated environment of Soul Society and the harsh upbringing of the Kuchiki clan, the period of time spent in Kurosaki Ichigos home was undoubtedly the most relaxed time for Kuchiki Rukia.
Of course, Kuchiki Rukia did not know that Kurosaki Ichigo was the son of the former 10th Division Captain, Kurosaki Iss.h.i.+n. In this way, perhaps she would relax a little.
Unfortunately, Kuchiki Rukia entered the job too late.
By the time Kuchiki Rukia entered the post, the 10th Division Captain had been replaced by Hitsugaya Tos.h.i.+ro. The former Captain had long lived in seclusion in Human World.
The night gradually fell.
Forget it, just like this!
Kuchiki Rukia left the letter on the table and quietly left Kurosaki Ichigos home. She was going to the Soul Societys entrance in Karakura Town and waiting for Seireiteis envoy.
It was just that when Kuchiki Rukia saw the Seireiteis envoy that came to arrest her at the entrance, her expression couldnt help but become a little ugly
Because the first figure she saw was her companion who grew up together in the orphanage, Abarai Renji, and also currently the 6th division lieutenant!
And beside Abarai Renji
Standing there was a man full of aristocratic aura.
Kuchiki Byakuya
He had personally rushed over to Human World!
Ever since the news that Kuchiki Rukia secretly shared s.h.i.+nigami power with a human in Human World spread to Seireitei, Kuchiki Byakuya had personally applied to capture his sister without waiting for the dispatch of the Central 46!
Kuchiki Byakuyas arrival was naturally to investigate Human Worlds specific situation and see if he could help Rukia escape from her crimes. He did not want this matter to fall into the hands of others!
Heh, Rukia, did you really do that?
Abarai Renji carried his Zanpakuto and flew in front of Kuchiki Rukia. A mocking sneer flashed across his face, I dont need to tell you how serious the consequences of sharing s.h.i.+nigamis power to a human are, right?
I know
Kuchiki Rukia was not in the mood to argue with Abarai Renji. Because of the appearance of Kuchiki Byakuya, she did not dare to talk back at all.
Kuchiki Byakuya slowly opened his eyes. A wisp of cherry blossom petals surrounded him, setting off his extraordinary appearance.
The eyes of the man who always paid attention to his appearance flashed with a touch of coldness. He asked coldly, Where is that human?
The air seemed to have dropped a few degrees.
A chill emerged in Kuchiki Rukias heart. Anyone could sense the coldness on Kuchiki Byakuya. This man who had always been calm was angry!
Kuchiki Rukia turned her head slightly and recalled the details of getting along with Kurosaki Ichigo during this period. She slowly shook her head and said, This has nothing to do with him
This was the first time that Kuchiki Rukia went against Kuchiki Byakuyas words.
In the next moment, the coldness on Kuchiki Byakuyas body became even colder. He suddenly appeared in front of Kuchiki Rukia and his cold eyes fell on the young girl, Are you trying to say that you volunteered to do this?
Yes.
Then lets go!
Kuchiki Byakuya slowly narrowed his eyes.
Just as they were about to leave, a black knife and a blue arrow flew toward them, and someone rushed here!
It was Kurosaki Ichigo, who noticed something wrong after returning home, and the Quincy Is.h.i.+da Uryu, who came to stop them together. They had long regarded Kuchiki Rukia, who had been helping them understand the world as their companions!
Unfortunately
A Kurosaki Ichigo who just got s.h.i.+nigamis spiritual power and a young Quincy were not the opponents of Abarai Renji and Kuchiki Byakuya!
These two young little fellows
They were completely defeated by Kuchiki Byakuya without even seeing his movements clearly, and they were almost killed by him!
In this battle where there was a great disparity between the two sides
Kuchiki Byakuya easily defeated the two of them, directly crippling the spiritual energy that Kuchiki Rukia had shared with him, even causing Kurosaki Ichigo to fall into a near-death state!
This human
Kuchiki Byakuyas eyes narrowed slightly. He ignored the near-death Kurosaki Ichigo. His gaze landed on his sister, Kuchiki Rukia, and said softly, Your spiritual power should be gone
Kuchiki Byakuya shook his head and continued calmly, Forget it. I have already crippled his spiritual energy. He is already dead. Lets go
Big brother
Kuchiki Rukia slowly clenched her fists.
This was something that Kuchiki Rukia had never expected to happen!
Kurosaki Ichigo was killed by Kuchiki Byakuya just because he was implicated by her This was something that Kuchiki Rukia absolutely could not forgive!
Just as Kuchiki Rukia gritted her teeth and wanted to open her mouth to stay and die together with Kurosaki Ichigo, Kurosaki Ichigo, who had fallen into a near-death, suddenly revived!
Even though he had fallen to the ground, and even though he had lost his spiritual power, Kurosaki Ichigos palm still fiercely stretched out and tightly grabbed onto Kuchiki Byakuyas trousers, Hey, if you want to take Rukia away, you have to at least make sure that I have lost my breath
This guys life force
It was truly unimaginably tenacious!
He was actually able to come back to life even after being stabbed in the vitals by Kuchiki Byakuya, and he even maintained a clear-headed mind!
It was just
This was undoubtedly an offense for Kuchiki Byakuya, who loved cleanliness. Kuchiki Rukia, who especially understood her brother, had a sudden change in expression!
Kurosaki Ichigo, this idiot
He would definitely be killed by her furious brother!
If she did not stop Kurosaki Ichigo, even if he somehow survived, he would not be able to live another minute!
The next moment
Kuchiki Rukia suddenly appeared beside Kurosaki Ichigo. She kicked away Kurosaki Ichigos hand that was holding Kuchiki Byakuya tightly. She gritted her teeth and said, A mere human! Who told you to offend my elder brother
Rukia
Kurosaki Ichigo was confused.
The entire street fell into silence.
Kuchiki, Rukia, slowly lowered his head. He suppressed the pain in his throat and said, Kurosaki Ichigo you have to recognize your ident.i.ty! You are just an ordinary human
Kuchiki Rukia reached out her hand to cover her eyes. After a moment of silence, she raised her head and looked at Kuchiki Byakuya, Elder Brother Im already awake Hes just a human Just leave him here and let him die in pain Lets go, Elder Brother. Return to Soul Society
Kuchiki Byakuya fell silent.
The next moment, the head of the n.o.ble family slowly nodded. How could Rukias little thoughts be hidden from his eyes?
However, Kuchiki Byakuya, as the elder brother, did not refuse Rukias request and make her sad. Moreover, according to Kuchiki Byakuyas own judgment, Kurosaki Ichigo, who was stabbed in the vitals by his Zanpakuto, definitely could not live for too long
Step step step
Step step step step
The sound of footsteps suddenly came from the street.
A figure slowly walked over from the dark, and his gentle voice entered everyones ears, Well said This little guy is just a mere human
How come I didnt know that there was such a proud student in the Spiritual Arts Academy? It was clearly just two months since I last saw her. How did you become like this, Rukia?
En?
Kuchiki Byakuya frowned slightly.
He had already recognized who this voice belonged to!
Regardless of whether it was in the past or now, every single one of this fellows ident.i.ties was a problem. Even Kuchiki Byakuya had no choice but to look at his other ident.i.ty The status of the head of the Kuchiki clan was not worth mentioning in front of him!
Of course.
There was also a friend here.
Abarai Renji also heard the voice of the person. A strange look flashed across his face. He could not help but look in the direction of the person, Hey, Uehara Naraku, how did you come here?
They were old cla.s.smates!
But of course, Abarai Renji didnt care at all!
Its just that Abarai Renji didnt expect that this time, Uehara Naraku was actually looking for trouble for them!
I came to patrol the Human World.
Uehara Narakus figure appeared under the streetlight. He was dressed in a white captain uniform, and his face was filled with worry, I just didnt expect that Senior Kuchiki Byakuya would kill a human from the Human World
Uehara Naraku raised his head and looked at Kuchiki Byakuya. He continued calmly, Senior Kuchiki Byakuya, please tell me Are you any different from those who invaded Human World?
Kuchiki Byakuya frowned even more.
To be honest, he actually didnt hate Uehara Naraku, he just looked down on this family head who was a little prodigal.
In Seireitei, almost every s.h.i.+nigami knew very well that Uehara Naraku was famous for being soft-hearted and never being arrogant in front of anyone.
It wouldnt be a problem for s.h.i.+nigami to kill a human
After all, it was impossible for the battle between s.h.i.+nigami and Hollow to have no casualties. The life and death of a human was not a problem to s.h.i.+nigami. After the death of a human body, the soul would definitely go to Soul Society and survive in another way.
However
This kind of thing was obviously forbidden.
However, in private, s.h.i.+nigami never cared much about matters of human life, especially with Kuchiki Byakuyas ident.i.ty. Not to mention killing a human, even killing a s.h.i.+nigami would not cause any trouble
The foundation of all this was based on the fact that no one was pursuing it!
Central 46 definitely wont pursue Kuchiki Byakuya, the head of a n.o.ble family, and Gotei 13s people certainly wont care about this kind of thing
The only one who would care about it was probably the Uehara Naraku in front of him.
Unfortunately, no matter from which aspect, the double ident.i.ties of the 5th Division Captain and the family head of the Uehara Clan made Uehara Naraku qualified to argue with Kuchiki Byakuya.
Cla.s.smate Rukia
Uehara Naraku glanced at Kuchiki Rukia, who had a complicated expression on her face. His expression gradually became serious, I heard it. It sounds like Cla.s.smate Rukia is a little arrogant when she talks about her elder brother What does human mean in your eyes?
After saying this, Uehara Narakus gaze fell on Kuchiki Byakuya, Cla.s.smate Rukia, then please tell me. Is your elder brother very honorable?
