"?"

The clean and swift escape startled Toshiro...

Seeing the other person's hostile expression, he was prepared to fight to the death, but the guy just turned around and ran away...

Not long after, many figures suddenly appeared around them; they were all captains of other squads.

"Has Captain Zaraki been defeated?"

"What a troublesome guy..."

"Captain Hitsugaya, what on earth is going on here?"

They witnessed the scene, and their expressions varied.

37. Shirou Emiya's Flaw! (4K)

"Gulp... What am I doing?"

In a tilted world, lying in a high-rise building, Ichigo opened his eyes in a daze.

"By the way, I'm in battle..."

Recalling the scene of his encounter with that powerful monster, he quickly stood up.

But looking around, I realized that this was my inner world.

A clear sky, a refreshing breeze, and towering buildings everywhere...

Everything seemed normal.

But this time he didn't see any familiar faces.

Uncle Zhan Yue...

That's how Ichigo addressed the other person...

"This is really too much..."

A mocking voice came from behind him, and Ichigo turned around abruptly.

There stood a white figure wearing a half-broken mask.

For some reason, just seeing that mask with red patterns gave Ichigo a sense of unease.

"What's going on? How did you get here?"

"Where is Uncle Zhan Yue?"

Although he didn't understand the situation, Ichigo still grabbed his Zanpakuto and stood up.

He has always been wary of this white version of himself.

"Tsk..."

Ichigo could hear the other person clicking their tongue in displeasure, and he couldn't understand why the other person was reacting to it.

"Forget it, I was beaten to near death by guys of that caliber..."

"Ichigo, you're still too conservative."

But the topic that followed immediately drew Ichigo's attention away.

"?"

How could such a durable Hollow only receive such a rating?

Recalling the troublesome nature of the demon demon, Ichigo couldn't understand how this guy could make such a judgment.

"You can definitely become even stronger..."

"So powerful that it cannot be injured..."

"But it's disappointing that you can only exert this much power."

The more Ichigo listened, the more confused he became...

"What are you talking about?!"

When I asked that question, all I got in return was a dismissive laugh.

"!"

In the blink of an eye, Ichigo suddenly realized that the scenery in front of him had changed.

"Huh? He managed to regain consciousness after suffering such a fatal injury?"

"That's amazing."

Upon hearing unfamiliar words, Ichigo looked up and saw Yoruichi.

He looked down at his chest, where the wound that should have been penetrating was now wrapped in thick bandages.

"Everyone thought you'd be unconscious for a long time, which would delay the rescue mission. This saves us a lot of trouble."

Looking at the stunned Ichigo, Yoruichi felt relieved to see him awake.

I was worried about whether this kid would survive, but he proved to be more resilient than I expected.

She was still alive even with a hole in her chest... Honestly, even considering her experience, that's quite an achievement.

"Well..."

"Don't rush to get up. This is a safe place. There won't be any pursuers."

Seeing that Ichigo was about to get up, she immediately comforted him.

How long was I unconscious?

He stopped thinking about what he had seen about Haku Ichigo and asked Yoruichi about it.

There must have been a transition period between being rescued and waking up, and he didn't want to miss the opportunity to save Rukia.

"Don't worry, it's only been twelve hours since the incident during the day. Just rest and relax."

"!"

Realizing he had slept for most of the day, Ichigo became a little worried.

"Sigh, you really don't listen to people."

Seeing that the boy looked like he wanted to move, Yoruichi walked over with her hands on her hips and gently pushed him to the ground.

"Ahhhh!!!"

The pain made Ichigo scream, and the tearing agony made him take deep breaths.

"Look, it's like this after just a slight touch."

"Just rest and recover; Rukia is not in danger for the time being."

Squatting down to offer this advice made the former realize something.

"The execution date has been changed; it will be in about five days..."

"?"

Hearing this, Ichigo felt relieved but also puzzled.

Although the date was moved up, at least they still have plenty of time.

"Today, those suspicious guys infiltrated Seireitei and caused a lot of damage, which diverted a lot of our attention."

Yoruichi's explanation also let Ichigo know what happened while he was unconscious.

Following that conflict, Soul Society entered a state of martial law.

The attack by unknown assailants caused numerous casualties.

"The identities of those guys haven't been investigated yet, and that illusion might have been brought by them."

"What an incredible creature. It survived being attacked by both you and the captain of the 11th Division."

"If any other captain had stood still, they probably wouldn't have been able to escape unscathed even if they used their Bankai."

Recalling what she had witnessed, Yoruichi felt increasingly suspicious of Makura.

She had never seen such a resilient opponent.

In terms of specifications, it may truly be the highest-ranking "Vasterd" in the Great Void.

After all, judging from the spiritual pressure of Kenpachi and Ichigo on the scene, even a captain-level figure might not be able to withstand the outburst of one of them.

But that illusion is still alive...

Even if they seem to have escaped in the end, it doesn't mean they were cowardly.

"Leaving aside that unrelated matter for now, the Great Spiritual Book Corridor in the underground council chamber has also been invaded."

"We're not the only ones who have infiltrated..."

"The other party is very knowledgeable about the Soul Society, and this time they've gone to great lengths, so you can rest assured for now."

Upon hearing this, Ichigo understood what Yoruichi meant.

"You mean, the captains of Soul Society are paying more attention to them now?"

"That's right. Captain-Commander Yamamoto even drafted detailed instructions and issued them, including dispatching an expeditionary force to Rukongai to hunt down the Hollows you fought before."

"Several captains also remained at various locations within Seireitei on guard..."

"It's fair to say that this is both a good thing and a bad thing."

Yoruichi was also surprised by the turn of events.

The reason I let Ichigo in was because I was confident she could escape safely with everyone.

Now, thanks to the disruption caused by other intruders, things have become complicated.

It has become more difficult to see Rukia, but the defenses of the Seireitei are not as comprehensive as before.

After all, the fate of Kenpachi Zaraki, the captain of the Eleventh Division, remains unknown.

The presence of the three captains from the expedition team has indirectly reduced the current defensive burden.

“Ichigo, I know you won’t give up easily, so over the next few days, while you recover from your injuries, we will begin new training.”

"You should be able to hold on, right?"

Faced with Yoruichi's question, Ichigo nodded firmly.

He himself found it incredible that he was still alive despite suffering such severe injuries.

And in this condition, they still have to train with their injuries...

In the past, that would probably have been considered insane.

But in order to save Rukia, he felt that his current power was not enough.

What I learned from Kenpachi and Makoro's battles was their chaotic and disorganized performance.

Despite possessing immense spiritual pressure, he failed to control it properly, resulting in some of it dissipating during attacks.

He hadn't systematically learned about spiritual pressure manipulation, so he inevitably wasted some effort when exerting it.

"To be honest, I'm quite surprised by your current situation."

"You've made amazing progress in such a short time. If you complete this training, you'll be even more incredible."

Yoruichi's words made Ichigo look up.

"What kind of training is it?"

If he can become stronger again, he won't hold back.

"The power called... swastika..."

.........

"Oh, I see. So you're all doing free purchases here."

Han Ming looked at the furtive Yao Meng and then spoke up.

They were standing in a corridor surrounded by databases containing numerous records.

The Great Spirit Book Hall is located in the basement of Central Room 46...
