Restricted Death

Chapter 176 Offering One's Body
Shin sighed as he looked at Hiyori Sarugaki, who had already assumed a fighting stance, "Why do they have to start fighting at the drop of a hat?"

He did not separate his spirit from the artificial body. Seeing Hiyori rushing towards him, he simply shifted his body slightly to the side and easily dodged the opponent's attack.

Hiyori, whose attack missed its mark, was shocked. If the opponent was indeed a Shinigami, then he should be inside the Gikai at this moment. So why was he still so agile?

Hiyori immediately stared at the other party as if facing a formidable enemy.

Having been the vice-captain of the 12th Division, she had a clear understanding of her own strength and was able to evade his attacks. However, ordinary Shinigami could not do it so easily, especially since she was wearing a Gigai (artificial body)...

How strong is this guy?
“I’m saying, haven’t we had a proper talk yet?” Shin said, shrugging at Hiyori. “Are you just going to treat me like an enemy so hastily?”

Hiyori frowned, gripping her Zanpakuto tightly in one hand. Despite her small stature, she exuded a strong aura.

"What do you want to talk about?" she asked.

Lisa Yadomaru stood to the side, her expression calm throughout, and she was also staring intently at the letter.

Xin Youyou said, "From the very beginning, you were the ones who actively followed me, and now you're going to turn your swords against me. Regardless of your reasons for doing this, don't you think it's very unfair to me?"

Hiyori snorted coldly and said, "Do you know who we are?"

"I guessed a little bit."

Hiyori's expression darkened slightly. She raised her sword and said, "What else is there to say? You should understand why we did this. Do you think we can just let you go back so easily?"

Xin chuckled and said, "But if you don't let me go back, will everything be fine? If I disappear, my people will definitely send someone over to investigate thoroughly. Wouldn't your situation be even worse then?"

Hiyori pondered for a moment and asked in return, "Would everything be alright if I let you go back?"

The letter said, "That depends on your sincerity."

"Ha!" Hiyori chuckled.

Not far away, Yadomaru Lisa also swallowed a Soul Pill. Her spirit separated from the Gikai. Like Hiyori, she was not wearing a Shinigami uniform, but she also carried a sword.

Xin shook his head helplessly: "In the end, you are just bullying me by taking advantage of your power. You think you are stronger than me and have more people, so you want to force me to do something."

Hiyori certainly didn't want things to turn out this way, and she wished this had never happened, but since things had come to this, she had to consider the future situation of all of them.

We can't let this guy get away!

The letter continued, "So if I did the same thing to you, you can't blame me."

As soon as he finished speaking, Xin's body suddenly fell backward, and at the moment he fell, Xin's spirit also detached from him.

Without taking any Soul-Binding Pills or using any other props, he completed the separation of his soul from his body.

Hiyori and Yadomaru Lisa were both somewhat surprised, but they breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing Shin's attire.

It was just a regular Shinigami uniform, without the vice-captain's armband.

But in the next instant, an almost invisible barrier of spiritual particles suddenly spread outward from Xin's body, enveloping the area where they were.

Hiyori and Yadomaru Lisa exchanged a glance and decided to act simultaneously.

boom!
But as they moved, an extremely powerful spiritual pressure suddenly erupted, like an invisible mountain crashing down on them. Hiyori and Yadomaru Lisa's pupils trembled, their limbs stiffened, and they could no longer move. In fact, the heavy pressure made it almost impossible for them to maintain their standing posture.

Second-class Spirit Might!

Such spiritual pressure intensity even exceeds that of an ordinary captain.

Shin walked slowly up to Hiyori, extended his finger, and flicked her forehead hard, despite Hiyori's frightened gaze. He then said with a smile, "Can we talk properly now?"

Then, he went to Lisa Yadomaru, gently lifted her chin, stroked it lightly, and took off her glasses.

"These glasses are really ugly, let's get a new pair."

Her glasses don't really suit her style; she would look better without them.

Although Yadomaru Lisa has a calm expression, she is a very cute girl. Wearing metal glasses would make her look more feminine.

Shinichi used his glasses to pull open the collar of Yadomaru Lisa's shirt a little and peek inside.

"That's quite something." "What are you trying to do to Lisa?!" Hiyori shouted angrily from the side.

Lisa Yadomaru said calmly, "Useless Hiyori, isn't it obvious what he's going to do to me next? We're so suppressed by him that we can't even move, so he can do whatever he wants to me. I didn't expect him to like this kind of bondage play. Hiyori, it seems you're going to be the next victim. He probably won't care about your childlike figure. It might even excite him more. He's not only a beast, but also a pedophile."

Credit patted her cheek with the glasses in his hand and laughed, "You always say that. If I don't do something, wouldn't I be letting you down?"

Lisa Yadomaru said without changing her expression, "We can't move now, so you don't need to pretend. Just show your true colors. No matter how savage and rude you are, we can't fight back, can we?"

Hiyori, who was standing to the side, kept twitching her lips as she listened to her say this. She always felt that compared to being subdued by Shin, hearing Lisa say these things in front of others was a greater torment.

Suddenly, the suffocating spiritual pressure receded rapidly like a tide, and the moment Hiyori regained her mobility, she immediately chose to retreat backward.

She was breathing heavily, gripping the knife and staring at the letter warily, not understanding what it was planning to do.

"Lisa!"

Hiyori saw that her companion was still standing there motionless and wondered if she was still unable to move due to the other party's spiritual pressure.
"How about we make a deal?"

Shin's gaze passed over Yadomaru Lisa in front of him and looked at Hiyori.

"what?"

Xin smiled knowingly and said, "I can let you go, but your companion needs to stay with me."

Hiyori roared in fury: "Don't even think about it!"

Xin looked at her strangely and said with amusement, "Don't even think about it. Or do you think you have the ability to defeat me? Do you think I'm really negotiating with you?"

Hiyori immediately charged at Shin with her sword, her Zanpakuto slashing down heavily, but Shin easily blocked it with just one finger.

Hiyori, however, felt as if her sword had struck something incredibly hard, and the immense recoil made her arm go numb.

Ding!
Shin flicked the blade, and Hiyori was instantly knocked back several meters.

Her eyes widened in horror, and she barely managed to stand still.

Lisa Yadomaru watched all this with a flicker in her eyes.

"who are you!"

Shin said, "You can call me Shin the Hawk."

Looking at his casual demeanor, Hiyori said, "When did Soul Society produce someone like you?"

Shin said unhurriedly, "You've all been gone for over forty years. Do you still know so much about Soul Society? Forty years is enough time for a lot to happen. For example, the current vice-captain of the Eighth Division. She looks much more sophisticated than you when she wears glasses. And the current vice-captain of the Twelfth Division is also very beautiful."

Unfortunately, I haven't had much interaction with them yet.

Hiyori's expression turned ugly: "So you knew who we were all after all!"

She was now absolutely certain that this person was from over forty years ago, when they were vice-captains and naturally had a reputation within Seireitei.

At that time, he was probably just an unknown nobody.

But can a person's strength change so much in just over forty years?!

Despite being former vice-captains, even after decades, their strength has still not reached the level of a second-grade spiritual master.

"Think it over carefully, this is your only chance to go back and get reinforcements."

At this moment, Hiyori was absolutely unwilling to abandon Yadomaru Lisa and go back alone.

"It's no use, Hiyori."

Lisa Yadomaru then said, "You should leave now. At this point, I'm the only one who can satisfy this guy."

Hiyori retorted angrily, "You perverted woman, what kind of time is this to say such things!"

Shin glanced at Hiyori, "So, are you leaving or not?"
