Bleach: Starting with Marrying Retsu Unohana

Meanwhile, at the 'Spirit King Palace'.

"Why aren't they fighting yet?!"

Wang Yue, the fake monk, Kirinji, and the beautiful and dignified Senjumaru, several members of the 'Zero Squad,' were sitting in front of something that looked like a television set, broadcasting the battle in 'Hueco Mundo.'

Among them, Kirinji Temple, which was particularly impatient, couldn't help but start complaining.

Yes, the battle between Kuruyashiki and Zaraki attracted all the top fighters in the entire Soul Society.

As for the much-anticipated Kuruyashiki and Zaraki, after exchanging a few words, they immediately ran towards the depths of Hueco Mundo.

"Everyone, don't chase them..."

Just as Kuruyashiki and Zaraki left, Araki's "Ten Ting Kong Luo" suddenly echoed in the minds of the onlookers. Araki explicitly forbade everyone from chasing after Kuruyashiki and the others to watch the spectacle up close.

"Why?!"

"If we don't follow along, how are we supposed to watch the game?!"

The members of the 11th Division who heard what Araki said were all puzzled.

However, Araki showed no intention of explaining to the team members who were puzzled...

Because soon these soldiers will understand Araki's good intentions!

Kuroshiki and Zaraki used Shunpo to leave the group of soldiers, traveling approximately several hundred miles away...

Suddenly, Kuruyashiki spoke to Zaraki: "This is enough!"

"it is good!"

Upon hearing this, Zaraki immediately stopped.

The two men, Kuruyashiki and Zaraki, faced off with perfect understanding.

Immediately afterwards, the two of them picked up their Zanpakuto at the same time and shouted, "Bankai!"

Chapter 149 Araki: Sorry, I only recognize Uno when it comes to being cute.

'Visible circle'.

"I really want to follow the direction the captains went and catch up to see what's going on!"

"Who doesn't? I wanted to go too! But the captain wouldn't let me!"

"It's so sad. This is all we asked for, and the captain won't even allow it..."

“We’ve served the Gotei 13 and shed blood for the Seireitei! We’re heroes! We have no other desires in this life but to behold Captain Zaraki’s glory up close, that’s all…”

The burly members of the 11th Division were currently winking and begging Captain-Commander Araki, trying to persuade him to lift their confinement order so they could follow Zaraki and the others into the depths of Hueco Mundo and witness the battle between Zaraki and Kuruyashiki up close…

There's nothing they can do; as members of the 'Eleventh Division,' which is a combat division, they don't have many hobbies. They just like to gossip and join in the fun.

As for whether they might get injured, they couldn't think about that right now! After all, it was a once-in-a-lifetime battle between Kenpachi Zaraki and his challenger. Who among the masses of the Soul Society wouldn't want to witness a clash between the top warriors of the Seireitei up close?!

Unfortunately, Araki wasn't buying it at all. Acting cute or charming was utterly useless against his cold heart; it only irritated him! In his entire life, Araki only enjoyed seeing Uno Retsu act cute and charming…

In particular, every day around noon, after Araki and Uno Retsu engaged in a fierce battle in the back hall of the 'First Division's' headquarters, Uno Retsu would always, at the moment when her battle with Araki reached its climax, slightly roll her eyes back, gently open her bright red lips, gasp for fresh air, and stick out her 'pink' 'tongue'.

To be honest, the contrasting side of Uno Retsu after she was defeated by Araki in their battle, her delicate and charming appearance, was something Araki found irresistible and utterly endearing. Even his Zanpakuto, which was constantly moving in and out of Araki's hands, felt a sense of liberation and pleasure at that moment.

As for the cutesy antics of this group of roughnecks from the 11th Division, it only made Araki feel nauseous and want to vomit...

"Araki, those squad members really want to go and see what's going on~"

Although Araki chose to ignore the unreasonable behavior of the 11th Division members below him, Uno Retsu couldn't do the same. When she heard the shouts of the members below, her heart was filled with 'mercy'. The kind and elegant Uno Retsu finally reminded Araki in front of her.

"Let them put up with it!"

"These 11th Division members, under Zaraki's tutelage, have absolutely no discipline! They actually want to chase after Kuruyashiki and Zaraki deep into Hueco Mundo to watch their battle up close?"

"Heh! Do they even have the ability to watch the fight between Kuruyashiki and Zaraki up close?!"

"It's just a side peek, knowing the outcome is enough! If we really went there, we'd probably be swallowed whole by Kuroyashiki's Zanpakuto before we even got to enjoy the melon!"

Upon hearing this, Araki raised an eyebrow slightly and spoke with a hint of displeasure.

"That's true~"

Upon hearing this, Mao said no more.

"Ha ha……"

Only Genryusai, Araki's master, let out a disdainful chuckle.

Genryusai looked at Araki and thought to himself speechlessly, "Does this kid think that the discipline of the 'Eleventh Division' he led back then was really that good? Who knows how lax the discipline of the 'Eleventh Division' was back then?! Even my orders as the Captain-Commander were often ignored, let alone others. Compared to this group of brats now, it's just a case of the pot calling the kettle black. No one has the right to judge anyone else."

"As for those little rascals who used to plan to turn the entire Soul Society upside down, why did they stop causing so much trouble after following Araki to the First Division? It's not that those little rascals have become more mature and obedient, but rather that they've gotten older and don't have that much energy anymore; they simply can't cause any more trouble..."

It must be said that Genryusai truly lived up to his reputation as Araki's teacher and as the former captain of the Gotei 13. He had a very thorough understanding of all the members of the 13th Division.

Just as Genryusai was feeling utterly disdainful of Araki's words, Araki and Unorire started whispering to each other again, occasionally letting out soft laughter, seemingly enjoying their conversation immensely.

Regarding this…

"..."

Yuan Liuzhai, that old geezer, merely glanced at the two shameless lovers beside him, who were flirting right in front of him, and then narrowed his eyes slightly...

At this moment, Yuan Liuzhai wisely chose to remain silent. He stood there quietly, like an old pine tree, selectively ignoring the two people beside him.

Although the two people beside him were, strictly speaking, juniors with whom he had an extremely close relationship...

"Master, please don't envy your disciple here!"

"In a few days, your disciple will definitely find you an elderly lady in the Seireitei who is exceptionally beautiful, has a good figure, and is worthy of your status, to live with you."

However, just because Yuan Liuzhai didn't want to get involved in this "right and wrong" doesn't mean that "right and wrong" won't come looking for him. After seeing that Yuan Liuzhai didn't want to talk to him, Araki thought for a moment and then said to Yuan Liuzhai in a cheeky way.

"..."

Yuan Liuzhai heard his disciple's words, but he didn't respond at all. He remained calmly standing in the same spot, staring into the distance with an expressionless face. However, the faint blue veins on his forehead betrayed the emotional turmoil within him.

"Hold on! Hold on! Don't fall for it..."

Yuan Liuzhai kept chanting to himself. In fact, Yuan Liuzhai knew in his heart that Araki was deliberately trying to provoke him. If he really got angry at this moment, then he would lose. To deal with this brat Araki, what he had to do was to completely ignore him. The more he ignored Araki, the more Araki's arrogance would diminish. The more he responded to Araki, the more arrogant Araki would become...

"Teacher Yuan Liuzhai, why are you ignoring me? Do you think that finding you an old lady isn't enough?!"

"You should have said so earlier! I knew that finding one for Master Genryusai would be far from enough! After all, you are an incredibly greedy old man~ Since that's the case, then so be it! I'll stand up for you here! After the battle between Zaraki and Kuruyashiki is completely over, I'll find you ten!"

Araki saw that Genryusai ignored him and continued to talk incessantly to Genryusai.

"roll!"

Genryusai's grip on the Zanpakuto tightened unconsciously. After gathering his energy for a while, he finally uttered a large "Get lost" at Araki.

"Hmm, that's right!"

Araki breathed a sigh of relief after seeing Genryusai lose his temper. To be honest, Genryusai's constant tolerance had been incredibly unsettling. It wasn't until Genryusai suddenly swore that Araki finally relaxed slightly…

Mmm! That's the taste!

That's exactly how his dear teacher, Yuan Liuzhai, spoke.

the other side……

"Be careful, my Bankai is incredibly powerful, even I can't fully control it!"

After performing his 'Bankai' in front of Zaraki, Kuruyashiki spoke coldly to Zaraki in front of him.

"Huh? You've already achieved Bankai?"

That same Zaraki, who had also activated Bankai, with two demon-like horns sprouting from his forehead, his entire body glowing red and radiating intense heat, gripping a shattered sword, looked at Kuruyashiki with a puzzled expression. He had indeed seen the sword in Kuruyashiki's hand disappear, so theoretically, the other party should have activated Bankai. However, five seconds had passed, and he still hadn't discovered Kuruyashiki's Bankai ability. What exactly was it?

"Of course!"

Upon hearing this, Kuruyashiki answered Zaraki's question with a slight smile.

Where is your Bankai?

After hearing Kuruyashiki's answer, Zaraki asked in confusion.

"Ha ha……"

Upon hearing this, Kuruyashiki did not directly answer Zaraki's question. Instead, he smiled and extended one finger, then gently pointed to the feet of the two of them.

"Um?!"

Upon seeing Kuruyashiki's actions, Zaraki frowned slightly and immediately looked down.

It was precisely in that instant when Zaraki looked down that countless beads of cold sweat suddenly broke out on his forehead. A deep sense of crisis transformed into an icy chill that shot straight to the top of his head.

"This is?!"

As Zaraki watched the white sand sinking beneath his feet, his pupils gradually dilated.

"The devouring has begun!"

In response, Kuruyashiki simply uttered five words.

The next second, centered on Kuruyashiki and Zaraki, the earth began to tear apart, and countless trees, forests, hills, and even towering mountains were swallowed up from below...

"Roar!!"

During this time, countless Hollows began to flee in all directions, but their escape speed was still too slow compared to the speed at which the rift was opening!

Everything shrouded in that dark crack will be dragged into that endless abyss, then torn apart, destroyed, and pulverized into the most basic spiritual particles, and then completely devoured by it.

The radius of that crack was several spirit miles, and its diameter far exceeded ten spirit miles! Its area was enough to easily destroy dozens of 'Karakura Towns' located in the present world!

"What is that?!"

It was after Kuruyashiki revealed his 'Bankai' that the group of 'Eleventh Division' members, who were still 'posing' and trying to attract Araki's attention so that he would approve their permission to go to the place where Kuruyashiki and Zaraki had left and watch the battle between Kuruyashiki and Zaraki up close, stared wide-eyed at the huge abyss.

"Crack~"

Araki, standing in the sky, snapped his fingers lightly so that everyone below could see more clearly. The white desert beneath their feet transformed into ordinary spiritual particles, which then became a huge platform, lifting the 11th Division members up.

When the members of the 11th Division reached high altitude, they finally saw the enormous abyss that devoured everything. The abyss looked like the giant jaws of some kind of creature, and at that moment, the unknown creature was opening its blood-red maw, enjoying its gluttonous feast.

And the dishes for his feast today include trees, hills, mountains, and the Great Hollow that keeps wailing!

Is this hell?!

After staring blankly at the scene before them for a few minutes, the members of the 11th Division murmured in incredibly soft voices, like the flapping of a mosquito's wings.
