And the Onmyoji, trembling with fear, staring at something in the distance.
"What's there...?"
Shiranui Sou frowned.
He had just heard the master say that a demon was causing trouble and harming people, so he invited a Yin-Yang master to exorcise the demon.
Judging from the current situation, this unknown "monster" actually exists?
Judging from the Onmyoji's reaction, there seems to be some kind of foreign object in the very center of the hall.
This is also what surprised Shiranui Sho.
Because in his line of sight, the center of the hall, the direction the Yin-Yang Master was gazing at, was clearly empty!
"Monster! How dare you hurt people in front of me!"
The Yin-Yang Master swallowed hard, and with a stern but restrained expression, he rebuked him.
Then, he took out a talisman from his pocket with his right hand and muttered some incantations.
"All warriors, array yourselves in battle—so be it, so commanded!!"
"what!!"
After a loud shout, he reached out with both hands towards the blurry outline in his vision.
In his line of sight, a dim ball of light the size of a head shot rapidly forward.
However, from a distance, Shiranui Sho appeared to be the Onmyoji chanting a string of incantations before solemnly extending his hand into the air ahead.
Then, he stared intently ahead with a look of certainty.
He couldn't immediately tell whether the Yin-Yang Master was truly skilled or just bluffing.
bang——
Soon, a clear sound, like gas hitting a wall, rang out, causing both Onmyoji and Shiranui Sou to change their expressions.
"How...how is this possible?!" The Onmyoji's mouth dropped open in shock.
Although he was obsequious to his superiors and bullied his subordinates, indulging in drinking, gambling, and prostitution, he was truly a genuine Yin-Yang Master!
His spiritual attack, which exhausted all his cultivation, was now as ineffective against the unknown monster as a fart.
His legs felt weak as he stood there, wanting to run away.
But the monster, already thoroughly enraged, suddenly pounced forward, and a whooshing sound rang out.
"This guy actually has some skills?"
This is Shiranui Sou's idea.
He raised an eyebrow in surprise, then stomped forward and grabbed the Onmyoji's arm with his right hand.
Then, the Onmyoji felt a dizzying sensation, and when the dizziness subsided slightly, he was already being carried on Shiranui Sho's shoulder.
"It's you!"
He was about to ask what was going on when he was shocked to see the boy's profile.
He instantly recalled a fleeting glimpse he had taken by the roadside not long ago.
"Stop talking nonsense!"
Shiranui Sho frowned and interrupted sharply, "What can you see that thing?"
This time, being inside the hall, he could see it even more clearly.
Just as he carried the Onmyoji away from the center of the hall, a large pit appeared out of thin air where the Onmyoji had been.
A mark shaped like a beast's claw is deeply imprinted on the bluestone floor tiles.
At the same time, his intuition also vaguely sensed the unease of being stared at by a ferocious beast.
Upon hearing Shiranui Sou's question, Onmyoji's voice trembled slightly, and he stammered.
"It's...it's a very white, no, deathly white monster!"
"His head is like the skull of a wild dog, but... but his paws are like a cat's, and his fore and hind limbs are proportionally larger than those of a typical wild animal!!"
"Let's run!!"
It's clear that the Onmyoji was a cultured person in this era, as he was able to sketch out the appearance of that formless monster in just a few words.
"This is... a Hollow!?"
Upon hearing this, Shiranui Xiao was taken aback at first, then suddenly realized what was happening and blurted out a name.
so it is……
No wonder the name "Karakura Town" sounded so familiar to him when he first heard it.
Based on the descriptions of the Onmyoji, that invisible monster is clearly a creature called "Hollow" from the world of Bleach!
Karakura Town is where the original story begins, and the birthplace of the protagonist, Ichigo Kurosaki!
The only difference is that the present world, or what can be understood as the "human world," has not yet entered the modern era, and Karakura Town still retains its ancient appearance.
This is also why he didn't immediately connect Karakura Town with the world of Bleach.
"Hold on tight! If that monster moves, tell me immediately!" Shiranui Sou said in a deep voice.
"Wait...wait! If you can't see it, why don't we run away!?"
The Yin-Yang Master was nearly scared out of his wits by Xiao's words, and looked at him with the shock of someone looking at an idiot.
You run fast, I can see clearly, we hit it off immediately and make a quick getaway, wouldn't that be wonderful?
"Stop nagging, just do as I say!"
Shiranui Sou did not explain to him, but said in a deep voice.
For him, the appearance of the illusion actually presented more opportunities than risks.
Karakura Town is indeed the location where the original story takes place, but given the current state of affairs, it's unknown whether the events of the original story will actually occur again in a few hundred years.
To further explore the value of this world to him, he must come into contact with its mysterious side.
Soul Society and Hueco Mundo were the two places that immediately came to mind.
Currently, Soul Society is more valuable to him than Hueco Mundo, but that doesn't mean that the Hollows in front of him have no value.
Judging from Onmyoji's description, this Hollow is just an ordinary Hollow at the very bottom of Hueco Mundo.
Perfect, this can be used to verify whether the power of a ninja or the power of a Devil Fruit can cause effective damage.
"It's coming at you! Right in front of you!" the Onmyoji suddenly exclaimed.
Upon hearing this, Shiranui Sou narrowed his eyes, clenched his right fist, and a dense darkness gathered in his arm and fist.
"Hidden Fist!!"
There was no special technique involved; it was just a punch that combined Devil Fruit power with superhuman strength and physical prowess.
As the chakra exploded, the dense darkness also surged violently, as if boiling!
Boom—
After a loud bang, Shiranui Sho glanced at the deep crater in the hall wall, then at his fist surrounded by black smoke, and fell into deep thought.
Chapter 48 My lord, you shall become the next ruler!
“That… sir.”
The Onmyoji, carried on Shiranui Sho's shoulder, spoke cautiously, his tone ingratiating and respectful.
After what had just happened, he no longer regarded this boy as a poor kid from a remote village, but as a highly capable and unfathomable person.
"What is it?"
Shiranui Sho raised an eyebrow.
"That monster seems to be dead."
He pointed with his finger, offering a reminder.
"It's not just a feeling, he is definitely dead."
Shiranui Sho placed the Onmyoji on her shoulder to the ground, clenched her fist, and the sensation from the previous touch still lingered on her fist.
He sensed that the punch he had just thrown, imbued with the power of the Dark Fruit and superhuman strength, had instantly broken and shattered the Hollow's body.
It's like hitting an animal's bones.
However, unexpectedly, the invisible void did not possess much power.
The previous high level of preparedness proved to be an overestimation of the ordinary illusory's strength.
That's true.
Ordinary power is simply overwhelmingly strong to ordinary people, just as ordinary people cannot withstand ferocious beasts such as tigers and black bears.
But in front of Shiranui Sho, ordinary Hollows are nothing more than ferocious beasts on a one-level-higher level.
It has low intelligence and great strength, but the only troublesome thing is that it is difficult to see with the naked eye.
"Although it is invisible to the naked eye, it can still cause damage through physical attacks, ninjutsu, and Devil Fruit abilities."
A glint of light flashed in Shiranui Sou's eyes.
This matches the information he remembered.
In the world of Shinigami, ordinary people in the mortal realm cannot see the physical forms of Hollows or Shinigami, but they can touch them.
The principle is very simple.
The virtual can damage physical objects in the real world, and of course it will also be affected by these forces.
The question now is, what to do next?
Logically, the area where Karakura Town is located should also have Shinigami responsible for dealing with Hollows, but for some reason they didn't arrive in time.
For him, entering Soul Society through the Shinigami route was the safest option.
However, there's no need to rush the search for Death.
After all, there is still a threshold that cannot be overcome for the time being between the human world and Soul Society...
He is a living, breathing human being in this world, not a soul.
We can't really let him slit his own throat and become a ghost; that would be a loss.
However, he did have a slight idea of a way to temporarily separate his soul from his body...
"That man over there was the lord of Karakura Town. He's dead. What do we do now?"
Shiranui Sho snapped out of her reverie and turned her gaze to the Onmyoji beside her.
While he was deep in thought, the Yin-Yang Master stood quietly to the side, barely daring to breathe, his gaze occasionally drifting towards the ethereal figure not far away, whose body was beginning to dissipate.
Upon hearing the question, he quickly looked up and smiled.
"It is indeed a pity that the lord has died, but Karakura Town cannot be left without a manager. I will write a letter to the daimyo to explain the situation here."
He was very perceptive and said as if offering a treasure, "If you, sir, are interested in this position, then you can become the next master!"
"Not interested..."
Shiranui Sou's lips twitched.
He was so bored that he took on a time-consuming and laborious job in another world.
Moreover, the difference between a person's given name and their actual name is as great as the difference between heaven and earth, even though the former is only one character different.
The great name is a great lord, but the nominal ruler is merely a minor official or local official in the countryside.
"That's right. With your demeanor, sir, it's best to leave the public appearances to others."
The Yin-Yang Master smiled knowingly and continued, "Then let's follow the original rules and have the position inherited by the lord's offspring. I will carefully select the successor to ensure your satisfaction, sir!"
Do you want me to be satisfied?
Shiranui Sho glanced at him.
It seems this Onmyoji has decided to latch onto his coattails?
