Starting with Kengan beating up the Pirate King

Chapter 234 Teleportation

Karakura Town, Mashiba District.

In a deserted warehouse, where few people go, Hakugen Yuzaki and Kensei Rokusha are playing Go to pass the time.

Since Guan Yi accidentally entered and 'blew up' this Masked Army base three years ago, You Zhaotian has reinforced it with two layers of barriers, and the eight members of the Masked Army are divided into two groups to take turns guarding it.

Although there's nothing of importance here, it's a place of refuge for the Masked Army, who don't want to deal too much with humans.

More importantly, the concentration of spiritual particles here is relatively the highest in Karakura Town, a place rich in spiritual energy, and it is protected by Hachigen Ushōda's barrier, which makes it easy to preserve their Shinigami power.

"Checkmate." Yuzhao Tian Bogen moved a chess piece and uttered two words with a smile.

Kensei Rokugaku leaned forward abruptly, staring at the board for a dozen seconds before shoving a piece aside in boredom: "Forget it, it's pointless. I can't beat you even once."

He glanced at the sky outside and said, "It's almost evening, Pingzi and the others should be back by now."

Yuzhaoda Hachigen hummed in agreement: "It seems to be foggy. Will it get colder tomorrow?"

Kensei Muguruma shook his head: "We've really gotten used to life in the human world. We've even started paying attention to the weather naturally. It'll be really hard for us to adapt to going back to Soul Society."

Since Kisuke Urahara and Yoruichi Shihouin returned to Soul Society, the Soul Society's attitude towards them has become somewhat ambiguous. After all, Aizen's crimes have been established, and the sins of these Shinigami who were persecuted by Aizen have naturally been cleared.

Unlike Kisuke Urahara and Yoruichi, they were all forced to possess the power of Hollowfication, which is a major destabilizing factor in Soul Society. Even if they returned, they would be subject to strict supervision.

Furthermore, with Hiyori and other comrades who were unwilling to return to Soul Society refusing, the Visoreds remained in the human world, waiting for the opportunity to fight Aizen and seek revenge.

During this time, he would occasionally help Soul Society investigate the whereabouts of Kaneki and Yhwach.

After a moment of reflection, the two suddenly looked up at the sky together. Kensei Muguruma frowned slightly and said, "Why is the fog spreading so quickly?"

Just a minute ago, when they first noticed the fog, visibility was about 30 meters.

In just one minute, visibility had dropped to less than ten meters and was rapidly decreasing to the point where you couldn't see your hand in front of your face!
what happened?

"This is bad! The concentration of spiritual particles is increasing! This is the Demonic Path!" The next moment, Yuzhaotian Hachigen suddenly stood up: "Someone has launched a large-scale Demonic Path attack on the entire warehouse, and the barrier isn't reacting?!"

"What? An enemy attack? Who?!" Kensei Rokusha placed his hand on the hilt of his sword, looking around warily.

Meanwhile, in the shadowy, intangible empire nestled within this abandoned warehouse, Yhwach, seated on his throne, suddenly opened his eyes.

what happened?
After suffering setbacks in both Soul Society and Hueco Mundo, Yhwach led the remnants of the Wandenreich to hide here, recovering his strength and waiting for an opportunity, while always preparing to utilize the Visoreds.

It's not in his nature to just let others scheme against him without fighting back. Yhwach held a deep grudge against Aizen, and these Visored members who harbored resentment towards Aizen were the perfect tools.

They were observing the Masked Army's actions and using the concentration of spiritual particles here to repair the Invisible Empire.

This period has been very peaceful.

But the events unfolding before him, the eerie spread of the fog—for a fleeting moment, he felt a sense of déjà vu. Could it be…?

"Your Majesty, it is human concern!"

The next moment, Haswald, who appeared next to Yhwach, proved his judgment, and Yhwach immediately gripped the armrest tightly with his right hand.

"That guy..."

He definitely wasn't just after the Masked Army, so he discovered our presence again? What's wrong with this human?!
Rage surged within him, and Yhwach stood up and said, "Star Seal, is it finished?"

"Yes, Your Majesty."

“Kill him,” Yhwach said. “At all costs. Hasward, all of you attack together.”

Rumble—As the words fell, the broken, invisible empire suddenly began to tremble violently. The pillars that had broken in the battle a year ago, due to the lack of spiritual energy in the present world, had not been repaired and began to collapse continuously. The billowing dust obscured the rage on Yhwach's face.

Beyond the shadows, the warehouse was also trembling.

It was as if an 8-magnitude earthquake had struck; Hachigen Yuzaki and Kensei Rokusha almost lost their footing, their eyes fixed intently on their surroundings.

At the same time, Hachigen Ushōda clasped his hands together in front of his chest. This former vice-chief of the Seireitei had expanded his senses to the limit, but he only turned his head suddenly when the caster got within 15 meters of him and Kensei Rokusha.

"There it is!" "Binding Spell Number Sixty-Two - Hundred-Step Railing!"

Without any hesitation, Yuzaki Hachigen activated his Kido, a beam of light condensing into spiritual particles in front of him, which then dispersed into eight beams of light, fiercely piercing through the mist and striking the figure.

The tearing of the fog revealed Guan Yi's face to Kensei Muguruma and Hachigen Ushōda, but before they could even show their surprise, Guan Yi's actions shocked them into wide-eyed stares.

Faced with the incoming beams of light, Guan Yi simply raised his right hand.

"Rebound".

hum-

With just two soft words, the Binding Spell used by former Vice-Chief Kido, Ushōda Hachigen, froze in mid-air. The next second, the eight beams of light turned and thrust back towards Ushōda Hachigen and Mukuro Kensei at an even greater speed!

This situation was completely beyond Yushōda Hachigen's comprehension. He would use the method of counter-demon killing—that is, using the same degree and type of demonic arts to completely negate the opponent's demonic arts.

But what on earth is this Kido 'rebound' that utilizes the opponent's Kido?!
Boom! Boom! Boom!

Eight beams of light pierced the ground. At the last moment, both Kensei Rokugawa and Hachigen Ushōda dodged. Kensei Rokugawa moved laterally, rolled somewhat awkwardly, and then drew his Zanpakutō to slash at Seki's Shunpo.

Yuzhaoda Hachigen leaped high to gain a better view and angle, preparing to unleash his Kido again. However, he saw that Kaneki, whose left hand was half-hidden by Kensei Muguruma's body, raised his two fingers together like a conductor conducting an orchestra, causing his spiritual particles to surge abnormally.

Wait, what's this?!

Puff puff puff puff—

The Hundred-Step Balustrade, which had missed its target, shot upwards in a way that exceeded Yushoda Hachigen's comprehension. By the time Yushoda Hachigen, who was in mid-air, reacted, it was too late to dodge.

Eight beams of light accurately pierced his spiritual nodes, instantly sealing off all of the former deputy ghost Taoist priest's mobility, leaving him no chance to even become ethereal.

"Kensei! Go Hollow out! This guy..."

As they plummeted downwards, Hachigen Yushōda could only try to "help" Kensei Muguruma with words. But what happened next told them that Kidō, Hollowfication, and even the Shikai and Bankai of their Zanpakutō were meaningless, because the difference in strength between the two sides had reached an incomprehensible level!
Ding--

The blade that was slashing horizontally was caught by an ordinary hand, and then that hand gently twisted it, and Kensei Rokusha's Zanpakuto broke in two!

With his eyes wide open in disbelief, Kenshin Rokusha leaned forward as his body met Guan Yi's other hand: "Seal."

hum-

An invisible spiritual wedge was driven into Kensei Muguruma's body, causing him to lose control of his body and slip and fall to the ground with a thud.

The two brothers, both in dire straits, could only lie on the ground, their eyes meeting and questioning Guan Yi.

"Gentlemen, I'm not looking for you."

As Guan Yi spoke, he drew his Zanpakuto and slammed it into the ground. The next moment, the entire warehouse began to shake even more violently!
slam-la-

Amidst the tremors of wooden crates and bricks, objects rose from the ground and floated in the air. The dazzling spiritual light caused Hachigen Ushōda and Kensei Rokushō to involuntarily squint.

With a sharp buzzing sound, the fog in front of the two men dissipated, and the wooden crates and bricks in the warehouse disappeared from their sight.

Their surroundings were completely empty. The two managed to turn their heads and found themselves in a deep crater, with Guan Yi nowhere to be seen—"Where did that guy teleport us?!"

Kensei Rokusha growled, "Damn it... what does it mean he's not here for us? Does he intend to harm Hirako or Hiyori?!"

“No… Kensei.” Hachigen Yuzaki said in a strained voice, “We weren’t teleported.”

"What? Then what's in front of me..."

"Beep beep beep—" A hundred meters away, Hiyori Sarugaki was carrying vegetables, humming a little tune, and heading back to the base in a good mood when she suddenly froze, the vegetables fell to the ground, and she raised her hands to rub her eyes.

Then he flew into a rage.

"Where's the base? Where did the base go?!"
