Chapter 681 - The Eve of the Final Battle
I dont believe.
Kurosaki Ichigos words almost made Uehara Naraku explode.
What kind of IQ did this group of hot-blooded anime male protagonists have They dont know whats going on at all, yet they still have to engage in hot-blooded lines at any time!
Whats the advantage of having a conflict with a powerful evil force like the Uehara Clan at this time? Tobirama can crush you, a cub with three kinds of power, in minutes!
This was indeed Kurosaki Ichigos character.
Kurosaki Ichigo did not care about those messy things.
Right now, Kurosaki Ichigo only wanted to save his friend, regardless of whether he was a p.a.w.n sent by Yhwach or not. Moreover, until now, Kurosaki Ichigo had not completely figured out who Yhwach was. He only knew that he was not a good person
Of course
The Uehara Naraku in front of him was a good person.
Even if Kurosaki Ichigo believed Uehara Narakus words in his heart, he still wanted to save Is.h.i.+da Uryu. Before he personally asked the answer, he would not give up his friend!
This made it seem that Kurosaki Ichigo was a little ignorant of the situation.
However, it was precisely because he was willing to sacrifice his own life for a friend that he was recognized by others.
Hmph, ignorant!
Tobirama snorted coldly and flew to Kurosaki Ichigos side!
Just as Kurosaki Ichigo became vigilant and waved his hand to release his Getsuga Tensho to attack Tobirama, he saw this white-haired man in blue leather armor suddenly point his finger at his Zanpakuto!
A hint of fear appeared on Kurosaki Ichigos face. His body was actually unable to move under this finger and lines slowly spread along his body
Mr. Tobirama! x3
s.h.i.+hoin Yoruichi, Urahara Kisuke, and Uehara Naraku spoke at the same time.
After the three of them spoke at the same time to stop Tobirama, they looked at each other. Urahara Kisuke and s.h.i.+hoin Yoruichi took a few steps back slightly. They placed their hopes of convincing Tobirama on Uehara Naraku.
Obviously, Uehara Naraku did not disappoint them.
At this point in time when the net was about to be closed, Uehara Naraku would not let anyone down. Only then would these people see what true despair was.
Mr. Tobirama, please let Ichigo go!
Uehara Narakus palm landed on Tobiramas wrist. He gritted his teeth and said in a deep voice, Ichigo is my friend
Tobirama withdrew his arm dully.
To declare that Kurosaki Ichigo was your friend at this time?
Then this brats life was quite miserable.
As everyone knows, anyone who was treated as a friend by Uehara Naraku at this time was already at the peak of his life. From now on his life will be ups and downs
If Ichigo is unwilling to believe it
Uehara Naraku looked at Tobirama with a strange look in his eyes. He said softly, Then wait for Mr. Is.h.i.+da Uryu to wake up, and we will ask him then I believe that with his proud character, he should not deceive us.
There is no need for that.
Tobirama shook his head and shouted to s.h.i.+nigamis team next to him, You few, go and bring the witness who is chasing Is.h.i.+da Uryu! The evidence has been conclusive, and it is not something he can refute. The entire Quincy clan and the Quincy descendants are Yhwachs p.a.w.ns!
Is.h.i.+da wont
What Mr. Tobirama said makes sense.
Urahara Kisuke suddenly interrupted Kurosaki Ichigo. He reached out to press the brim of his hat and said in a low voice, Let Lord Naraku take care of Is.h.i.+da Uryu first Ichigo, Rukia has been pardoned. You are no longer qualified to stay in Seireitei.
No one expected that Urahara Kisuke would stand on Tobiramas side. Even Uehara Naraku could not help but be a little surprised
No, it did not seem to be worth the surprise.
Because Tobirama would immediately propose to chase after the remaining Quincy and their descendants in the whole world. The Kurosaki Ichigo in front of him was the son of s.h.i.+nigami and Quincy, and was also in the ranks of the pursuit!
Urahara Kisuke needed to protect Kurosaki Ichigos safety!
Compared to Is.h.i.+da Uryu, a Quincy with a doubtful ident.i.ty.
Kurosaki Ichigo, a human with the Quincy, Hollow, and s.h.i.+nigamis power as one, was the person Urahara Kisuke wants to protect secretly, and the most useful person!
Urahara Kisuke has a very different position in the hearts of Kurosaki Ichigo and others. His point of view can easily affect several people present. Even if Orihime Inoue and Yasutora Sado do not approve, they were quickly winked by s.h.i.+hoin Yoruichi.
They have to agree with this proposal.
Kuchiki Rukia stepped forward, grabbed Kurosaki Ichigos arm, and whispered to her friend, Ichigo, leave Seireitei immediately!
Yes, lets go!
If we dont leave now, Uncle Iss.h.i.+n will be worried! We have been here for such a long time, Karin and Yuzu must have been worried for a long time!
Dont worry, Ichigo.
If you dont leave
Urahara Kisuke grabbed Kurosaki Ichigos shoulder and whispered into his ear, Whether it is you, Chad, or Inoue, they will all fall into danger Go back immediately and tell your father everything that happened here!
Kurosaki Ichigos expression was a little puzzled.
After a long time, he nodded gloomily and was forced to leave with his friend. However, before he left, he still asked Uehara Naraku to take care of Is.h.i.+da Uryu.
Uehara Naraku naturally agreed.
After Kurosaki Ichigo and his friends left, the unconscious Is.h.i.+da Uryu was directly locked in the research inst.i.tute in Ueharas inner city. Tobirama would find a way to extract the blood of Yhwach in Is.h.i.+da Uryus body.
Because of the awakening of a Quincy
What was needed was the blood provided by Yhwach!
According to Uehara Narakus thoughts, he naturally wanted to get rid of Yhwach in advance before the final battle with Sosuke Aizen. What he hated the most was the uncontrollable guy.
The research inst.i.tute in Ueharas inner city.
The instruments in the underground research lab were filled with corpses.
These corpses were all mixed-blood Quincy who died when Yhwach launched Auswhlen. Their blood was also collected by Tobirama and made into weapons to kill Yhwach.
Compared to a thousand years ago, the current Seireitei was actually more dangerous for Yhwach. Perhaps he himself knew this matter and had been hiding in the shadow s.p.a.ce without showing up.
Even Is.h.i.+da Uryus arrest did not lead to Yhwachs appearance. This guys cautiousness really made people want to scratch their heads
This was Is.h.i.+da Uryu!
In a sense, Is.h.i.+da Uryu had been personally appointed as the successor of Wandenreich by Yhwach, equivalent to the Crown Prince of Wandenreich. His status was similar to that of Portgas D. Ace in Whitebeard Pirates!
Forget it.
Uehara Naraku looked at the unconscious and exhausted Is.h.i.+da Uryu who had been drained out of Yhwachs blood. He waved his hand and got someone to lock him up in the dungeon. He shook his head and sighed, It seems that the only way to lure that guy out is to use the Soul King as bait in the future
Other than Soul King, there seemed to be nothing else worth Yhwachs attention. Compared to Sosuke Aizen, Yhwach had obtained too much.
Moreover, Sosuke Aizens ultimate goal was also the Soul King
The people inside Seireitei would never have thought that someone would actually want to use the Soul King as bait and hook up with the two ultimate behind-the-scenes in this world.
It was just that the action style of the two behind-the-scenes men gradually changed.
Because he was worried about Seireiteis current strength, Yhwach had always been hiding in the Shadow World and refused to show himself, not even Hueco Mundo or Human World.
However, after obtaining Hogyoku, Sosuke Aizen frequently sent out the Arrancar Army to disturb Human World. After hearing about Orihime Inoues power, he even wanted to send Ulquiorra to secretly kidnap Orihime Inoue.
However, Urahara Kisuke got this news from White Zetsu and stopped Ulquiorra in time to save Orihime Inoue.
As the Arrancar Army moved frequently, Seireitei also realized that Sosuke Aizen was no longer silent and probably wanted to start a big decisive battle.
In this case
Gotei 13s Captain-Commander Yamamoto Genryusai s.h.i.+gekuni had no choice but to give up on chasing Yhwach and set his goal to encircle and annihilate Sosuke Aizen.
Hueco Mundo.
Las Noches.
Sosuke Aizen sat calmly on the throne. He tilted his head and looked at the Hogyoku beside him. There was a slight smile on his lips. He had just achieved his goal. He had used his own strength to successfully subdue this completed Hogyoku.
Is this Hogyoku?
Ichimaru Gin narrowed his eyes and curiously sized up the Hogyoku which was flas.h.i.+ng with light, It looks very ordinary. Who would have thought that it would contain such terrifying power
Yes.
Sosuke Aizen chuckled and looked at Ichimaru Gin, Gin, do you need me to help you obtain the Hollow power using Hogyoku? This will allow your strength to improve further
Is there a need for that?
Ichimaru Gins eyes were still narrowed. He slowly shook his head and said, Teacher Kabuto once told me that it would be a rather foolish thing to fuse unknown power without sufficient overwhelming strength
Thats really a pity.
Sosuke Aizen did not care.
Compared to the original s.h.i.+nigami history, Sosuke Aizens tolerance for Ichimaru Gin had increased a lot. Even now, he knew that Ichimaru Gin was not loyal to him.
However, the current Ichimaru Gins ident.i.ty was not simple either. He was the hostage that Kabuto left behind by Sosuke Aizens side. He was also the student that Kabuto entrusted Sosuke Aizen to take care of
If Sosuke Aizen wanted to get the key to enter Soul King Palace in the hands of Zero Division Member, Yakus.h.i.+ Kabuto, it was definitely impossible for him to lay his hands on Ichimaru Gin.
In fact
Sosuke Aizen also had a good impression of Ichimaru Gin.
In the entire Las Noches, most of the Arrancar Army was loyal to Orochimaru, only Coyote Starrk and Ulquiorra, these two Arrancar were loyal to Sosuke Aizen.
Apart from this, only Ichimaru Gin was left among Sosuke Aizens trusted aides.
Regardless of whether it was Ichimaru Gins strength or his wisdom and ident.i.ty, both made Sosuke Aizen very fond of this subordinate. He hoped that his charm and strength would be enough to make Ichimaru Gin completely submit to him.
And then
Then, he would use Ichimaru Gin to influence Kabuto.
This pair of teacher and student, who could be said to be full of talents, had always been the two subordinates that Sosuke Aizen wanted the most. Even Ulquiorra was far inferior to them.
Congratulations
Ichimaru Gin slightly opened his eyes and glanced at the Hogyoku. Then, he turned to look at Sosuke Aizen, If thats the case, our goal seems to be about to be realized soon
Everything is still unknown.
Sosuke Aizen slowly shook his head and said softly, Although our plan has always been unsuccessful, it has still come to this After I fuse with Hogyoku, inform Mr. Orochimaru to prepare to attack Soul Society!
Directly attack Soul Society?
Not bad.
Sosuke Aizen tapped his finger on the armchair and muttered, I received a promise from Mr. Kabuto. As long as we can stand in front of him, he will open the Soul King Palace gate for us. Before that, we should deal with Gotei 13.
When he said this, the corners of Sosuke Aizens mouth curved into a smile. He continued softly, Of course, there is also that little fellow, Naraku. I really want to see to what extent he will grow to. Other than taking care of Kurosaki Ichigo, it seems that Naraku also needs some extra care!
According to Sosuke Aizens thoughts, Kurosaki Ichigo and Uehara Naraku would be both cultivated under his guidance in secret!
Now, Kurosaki Ichigo has frequently encountered Arrancar, and his strength has been tempered by Sosuke Aizen bit by bit. Especially during this period of time, Kurosaki Ichigo has already obtained the White Hollows power in his body, and with the help of Urahara Kisuke, he has learned Visoreds ability
It was just that on Uehara Narakus side
It made Sosuke Aizen feel a little awkward.
Because that little fellows strength was too hard to determine. He always has the protection of the Death Servant beside him, and his character seems to be getting weaker and weaker
This was not what Sosuke Aizen expected!
Therefore, Sosuke Aizen hoped that he could stimulate Uehara Narakus fighting spirit through one thing. If a true expert did not have the heart of a strong expert, then he was just a useless person
To a certain extent, Sosuke Aizens view was no different from the other worlds. He also likes to use emotions to manipulate others, The most important thing in this world is fetters Who is the most important person to Naraku?
Heh, this question
Ichimaru Gin narrowed his eyes again and could not help but laugh, For him, the person who has a strong connection the most should be Captain Aizen, right?
Thats really frustrating
Sosuke Aizen laughed and remembered that dozens of years ago, he controlled Uehara Naraku to enter the 5th Division with one hand and controlled the a.s.sa.s.sination incident and defection incident with the other hand, completely hurting the little guys young mind.
Just compensate him a little.
Sosuke Aizen slowly retracted his finger, and the smile in his eyes gradually disappeared, Then I will meet him again after I fuse with Hogyoku It just so happens that before the final battle, I also want to use those Uehara clans seats to personally test out Hogyokus power.
Even if Sosuke Aizen believed that Hogyoku would bring a qualitative change to his strength, he still needed to carry out an actual battle. What if he accidentally flipped the car again?
If it really came to the decisive moment
Sosuke Aizen discovered that Hogyoku was unable to change the situation of the battle, then wouldnt he have no chance of turning the tables?
If there was no reference, Sosuke Aizen would not be able to personally determine how much strength Hogyoku could improve him!
Just the unfathomable Uchiha Madara alone, Sosuke Aizen did not have full confidence. He had to personally test out Hogyokus unlimited potential for evolution!
If everything goes smoothly
Sosuke Aizens gaze landed on Ichimaru Gin, and he softly instructed, Have Mr. Orochimaru and Arrancar Army launch an attack on Soul Society in advance!
