Starting with Kengan beating up the Pirate King

Chapter 203 New Friends in Hueco Mundo
Soul Society, Seireitei.

For the past half month, Aizen seemed completely unaware of the secret investigation against him, maintaining his ordinary and peaceful daily life.

On this day, the Fifth Division welcomed a special visitor: Gin Ichimaru, the captain of the Third Division.

After inviting Gin Ichimaru into his room to be alone, Aizen's tone finally revealed a hint of reproach: "Gin, you shouldn't have come to me at a time like this."

Gin Ichimaru smiled and said, "So Captain Aizen knew. I was wrong. I thought we had kept our secret operation from you."

"Gin, why did you think that your investigation of me could be kept from me?" Aizen asked.

"Everything is under control."

After Hueco Mundo and the mysterious disappearance of Geo Weig, Aizen had already foreseen what might happen in the future, and even now, the fact that the Seireitei was starting to suspect him was also within his expectations.

This did disrupt his plans and made him very curious about who did it.

It couldn't be Kisuke Urahara. If it were him, he wouldn't have done it so carelessly. If it were him, he would have had a more meticulous plan, directly locking up his 'evidence' instead of providing evidence of dubious origin that only serves as a form of harassment.

"Captain Kuchiki and Captain Zaraki went to Hueco Mundo, is that alright?" Gin Ichimaru asked again.

"It's alright," Aizen chuckled. "Our new friend will help us solve this problem."

……

"A royal flush! Two threes, that's it!"

In Hueco Mundo, at Las Noches, a girl with short blonde hair threw down all the cards in her hand, staring at the two opposite her with a smile, and said, "Hehe, you lost, time to do your punishment, hurry up!"

Across from her, Lori and Menori, each holding a large hand of cards, stared at each other, then suddenly began arguing: "Why don't you want anything?!"

"I have the biggest Ace, what can I do about her?! You, Loli, you have two 2s, right?"

"I...I only have two 2s, so I was thinking of waiting a bit longer..."

"Ah, are you waiting for her to finish?! Are we on your side or yours?!"

"Wait a minute... let me see, don't you still have four fours that haven't been played yet?!"

"Idiot! That's a bomb!"

"Idiot! Go blow yourself up!"

"Huh? You want to fight?!"

"come!"

The two were about to leave, wrestling, when the blonde girl coughed, a smirk playing on her lips, and said in a strange tone, "No way, no way, you're not going to be a sore loser, are you? I lost before, and I did everything you asked me to do!"

Lori and Menori paused, their expressions turning slightly uneasy. Lori quickly retorted, "We didn't play well last time, let's try again!"

"Wow, are you really going to cheat? Ulquiorra, aren't you going to do anything about this?! Aizen told you to treat me well, are the Hollows of Las Noches this unreasonable? I have to go tell Aizen!"

Boom——

Ulquiorra, leaning against the outside of the room, remained expressionless and unresponsive, while the veins on Lori and Menori's foreheads throbbed.

The girl opposite them, named "Great King," had no idea what her relationship was with Lord Aizen. Half a month ago, when Lord Aizen brought her and a cat to Hueco Mundo, he actually called them "partners."

The girl's words consistently lacked respect for Lord Aizen, which annoyed them, yet they couldn't fathom her true intentions.

They had previously used the game called "Dou Dizhu" that the other party had taught them to give them a little lesson, and had the king punish them by calling out some respectful terms such as "Lord Aizen is immortal".

However, fortunes change, and they never expected that the other side would defeat them so badly in the next round, and the punishment would be... so difficult to handle.

"Hurry up, hurry up!" The king stretched out his legs and urged them with a wicked grin.

Lori and Menori froze, then sighed desperately and shouted in unison through gritted teeth, "Lord Ulquiorra, you... poker face!"

Poor face... poor face... face...

The sound echoed in the empty room, and Ulquiorra looked over from the doorway. He remained expressionless as always, but a barely perceptible hint of…doubt appeared in his eyes.

Lori and Menori turned green with embarrassment and bowed to him, saying, "I'm sorry, Lord Ulquiorra!"

The king laughed heartily: "I didn't tell you to use 'Your Excellency' in what you were supposed to shout, but alright, shall we continue?"

Lori and Menori apologized to Ulquiorra again, then turned away angrily.

"Come! Come again!"

We absolutely will not lose this time. We need to think of a good punishment! You're finished!
The king's eyes darted around, and he had already come up with a plan. He chuckled and said, "If you lose this time, you'll shout, 'Barragan, you're not the King of Hueco Mundo! The only King of Hueco Mundo is Lord Aizen!'"

"..."

"..."

"Let's not play anymore."

"Yeah, it's not very interesting."

If we keep playing like this, I'll really get too weak!
Although these were their true feelings, Lord Barragan was not as easy to talk to as Lord Ulquiorra; he might really kill them!

"Are you afraid?"

"Come on, come on."

Lori and Menori started playing dead.

"Boring." The king curled his lip and said to Ulquiorra, "Ulquiorra, you want to try?"

Ulquiorra did not respond, but silently turned his gaze to the southwest: "Several unusual spiritual pressures are approaching Las Noches. Before Aizen left, he instructed that if any enemies attack Las Noches in the near future, you would be responsible for handling them."

The Queen frowned slightly, and with a wave of her hand, the orange cat darted onto her shoulder like a flash of yellow light. She muttered, "When you're on someone else's turf, you have to do something for them. Come on, cat, let's go see what's going on."

Ulquiorra, lend your power to me and Meowth!

Swah——

The figure of the person and the cat vanished in an instant, leaving Lori and Menori exchanging astonished glances. This was the first time they had ever seen the Great King use 'Sound Spin'. Despite the apparent lack of spiritual energy fluctuations, he had managed to move so fast that it was almost imperceptible to their vision.

Ulquiorra raised his right hand, clenched his fist slightly, and seemed to be deep in thought as he felt the weakness in his body after the King had shared most of his power with him.

"Such power? No wonder Lord Aizen values ​​it so much."

"Hey! Don't be so stingy, don't try to take it back, we'll only use it for a little while!"

The king's shouts came from afar.

……

Swish! !

The sharp sword light streaked across the sky like a silver moon as Kenpachi Zaraki unleashed his spiritual pressure, annihilating the two Hollows that had been drawn in.

"Ah, the closer I get to Las Noches, the harder the Hollows become to kill, but they're still too weak. If they were Arrancars, I could probably kill them more satisfyingly."

"Yeah! Little Sword! Charge forward! Hueco Mundo should be just ahead!" Yachiru shouted fiercely as she rode on his shoulders.

Beside him, Byakuya Kuchiki, dressed in a silver-white floral dress, looked dashing and composed, a stark contrast to the Hueco Mundo world. He frowned slightly but said nothing.

He had repeatedly reminded Kenpachi Zaraki to restrain his spiritual pressure and avoid causing unnecessary trouble, but to little avail.

From another perspective, the Captain-Commander's decision to bring Kenpachi Zaraki to Hueco Mundo might have been motivated by a desire for Captain Zaraki to cause a little trouble.

Only by creating chaos can we see what we want to see and confirm.

Renji Abarai, who was half a body length behind Byakuya Kuchiki, had no right to persuade Kenpachi. He could only say, "Captain Zaraki, please don't speed up anymore. The members of the 12th Division are already struggling to keep up. We need to ensure their safety and return to Seireitei."

“Ah,” Kenpachi Zaraki responded, but showed no intention of slowing down.

Just as the group used Instant Step several more times, they suddenly sensed an extremely powerful spiritual pressure approaching, and their steps stopped abruptly.

Byakuya Kuchiki frowned, Kenpachi Zaraki's single eye, unobstructed by his glasses, widened, and Renji Abarai looked astonished, cold sweat appearing on his forehead.

The spiritual pressure pressed down on him like a mountain, and the feeling it brought was almost identical to what he occasionally experienced from Captain Kuchiki.

No, perhaps even stronger?!
A Hollow stronger than the captains?! Is this the Arrancar that the mission requires us to identify?!
When the owner of the spiritual pressure appeared in front of him, Renji Abarai looked somewhat confused.

"A little girl...and a cat? Why...doesn't she look like a ghost, but like a human?"

"It's definitely not a Hollow, it's a human, a human girl in Hueco Mundo... with Captain-level spiritual pressure?" Byakuya Kuchiki also looked surprised.

Kenpachi Zaraki's fighting spirit vanished completely, and he snorted, "What the hell?!"

Unbeknownst to them, several miles away, a seemingly ordinary face also displayed a somewhat disheveled expression.

"I'm really... damn it."
