Infinite: Start as a ghost

The group checked their memories again to make sure nothing was missing.

“Young man, we can’t trust you,” Hirako Shinji said. “Our memories are clear, and no one has done anything to you. Without evidence, I’ll be in a lot of trouble.”

"Damn it!" Ichigo Kurosaki gritted his teeth. "How could this happen?"

Nichiri: "What more is there to say? Kill him."

With that, she launched her attack.

"Water Breathing, First Form, Water Surface Slash..."

"What?!" Kurosaki Ichigo exclaimed in surprise, "A breathing technique?"

What surprised him was not that Nichiri would attack him, but the way he attacked.

When the Visoreds were training Ichigo Kurosaki, no one used their breathing techniques to spar with him.

Because everyone remembered Jiang Jiu's instructions.

Although they don't know why they are becoming increasingly hostile towards Jiang Jiu, a promise is a promise, and they will not voluntarily expose their relationship with Jiang Jiu.

When Kisuke Urahara inquired about Jiang Jiu's situation, the Visoreds specifically instructed him not to reveal that they knew Jiang Jiu.

Therefore, the Visoreds never used Breathing Techniques in front of Ichigo Kurosaki, and Ichigo Kurosaki was unaware of their relationship with Jiang Jiu.

Now that they have lost their memories of Ichigo Kurosaki, they no longer shy away from using breathing techniques.

"Wind Breathing, Form One, Dust Whirlwind, Slash, Modified Slash Fist Slash..."

Kurosaki Ichigo roared: "Moon Breathing, Third Form, Aversion to the Moon, Erosion..."

Chapter 145 Who is she?

With a single move, he forced Kensei Rokusha and Hiichi Sarugaki back, and the three of them stopped fighting. The others also turned to look.

“This is…” Aikawa Raibu’s pupils suddenly contracted.

Hirako Shinji said solemnly, "This is a breathing technique, different from ours."

The Visoreds never used Breathing Techniques in front of Ichigo Kurosaki, and similarly, Ichigo never used them in front of them.

It wasn't that he deliberately hid it; it's just that they hadn't spent much time together and hadn't had many opportunities to use the breathing technique.

Moreover, since it's just practicing summoning and controlling the mask, there's no need for breathing techniques at all.

However, in their memories, Ichigo Kurosaki no longer exists, so the past is meaningless.

"That guy, Mr. Oni, really is holding back from us," said Rojuro Fengqiao.

“I knew that bastard wasn’t a good person,” Hiichi said.

Even the hot-tempered Kensei Muguruma calmed down: "Shinko, the situation seems a bit complicated."

“It’s nothing complicated. At least this guy’s identity isn’t as suspicious as before,” Hirako Shinji said. “Let’s let this kid go first, and we’ll figure out what’s going on first.”

Lisa Yadomaru said, "It's precisely because we want to find out the truth that we need to keep him here."

“Then, let’s go and verify it.” Shinji Hirako turned to Ichigo Kurosaki and said, “Could you take us to see your family, or take us to see other people you know?”

When the topic turned to taking them to meet their relatives, Ichigo Kurosaki instinctively wanted to refuse, but upon hearing the following sentence, he immediately felt relieved.

Urahara Store was the best place he could think of.

Soul Society...

Yamamoto was so angry he almost smashed the table.

"What exactly is going on? What's happening lately? Why are all these things happening at once?"

It turned out that right after he appointed Kanai Ryosuke as the acting captain of the 10th Division, the Technology Development Bureau experienced a massive explosion.

Mayuri Kurotsuchi was seriously injured and fell into a coma.

"Investigate! Find out for me who attacked us this time!" Yamamoto was furious, but he still managed to maintain his composure.

"Yes, Lord Yamamoto." Sasakibe no Nakajiro bowed and left the office.

That said, it was he who reported this news to Yamamoto.

Not only Mayuri Kurotsuchi was injured this time, but Kenpachi Zaraki was also affected.

At the moment the Technology Development Bureau exploded, a sticky substance burst out from a certain technological device; no one knew what it was.

Many people who come into contact with this substance are frozen solid, and countless deaths have been caused by this sticky substance.

With the captain of the 10th Division vacant and Ryosuke Kanai not yet in charge, the responsibility for patrolling has been handed over to Kenpachi Zaraki's 11th Division.

After Kenpachi Zaraki chopped down a lot of the sticky substance, it eventually solidified.

These frozen human figures look like statues sculpted from white wax.

Toshiro had just gotten into trouble, and then Mayuri Kurotsuchi and Kenpachi Zaraki also got into trouble. How could Yamamoto not be furious?

Looking around, a quarter to a third of the Seireitei is filled with this sticky substance.

Fortunately, the unknown substance solidified and stopped spreading.

The captains' problems led Yamamoto to consider recalling the Visoreds.

The present world...

Ichigo Kurosaki arrives at Urahara Store with the Visoreds.

"What? So you know this shrewd businessman too?" Hirako Shinji laughed.

"You know him too?" Kurosaki Ichigo was taken aback at first, then realized, "You're right, it would be strange if you didn't know him."

Sensing several powerful spiritual pressures approaching, Kisuke Urahara opened the shop door.

"Is that you?" Kisuke Urahara looked at the Visoreds. "Yo, long time no see."

Aikawa Luo retorted, "It's only been a little over a week since we last met, hasn't it?"

Kisuke Urahara chuckled, "I wonder what brings you here so late..."

Then he looked at Ichigo Kurosaki: "Who is this young man? Is he your new member?"

Kyoraku Shunsui and Shihōin Yoruichi also came out: "Is everything alright?"

"Oh, Kyoraku, it's been a long time. It's been hundreds of years since we last met, hasn't it?" Hirako Shinji said with a smile.

“Oh…isn’t this Mako?” Kyoraku was unusually happy to see an old friend: “And Aikawa, Rokusha, you’re all here.”

"Come, come, let's come in and talk."

Kurosaki Ichigo exclaimed urgently, "Mr. Urahara, don't you recognize me either?"

"Mr. Urahara?" Kisuke Urahara was taken aback. "What's wrong, young man? Do you know me?"

Then he laughed and said, "Anyway, let's come in first and talk about it later."

Once inside the store, the Masked Legion explained the situation to them again.

Kisuke Urahara pondered: "So, someone uniformly processed our memories?"

"But even the Zero Division and Aizen couldn't do that, so I'm afraid even the Soul King would have a hard time doing it?"

Hirako Shinji said, "Who says it isn't? That's why I asked you to confirm it."

Kurosaki Ichigo said urgently, "Rukia, where's Rukia? She couldn't possibly have forgotten me, could she?"

"Rukia?" Everyone asked again, puzzled. "Who is she?"

Chapter 146 Split into Two Groups

"What?!" Ichigo Kurosaki stood up in shock. "How come you don't even recognize Rukia?"

Kisuke Urahara chuckled, "Well... well, don't rush me. Can you provide proof that I know this person?"

Everyone listened intently.

"She's a long-time customer of yours, how could you not even recognize her?" Kurosaki Ichigo said, getting more and more agitated.

"Don't rush, don't rush, please sit down first." Urahara stood up unhurriedly: "I'll go check the accounts."

"I have few guests, and if I really knew them, there should be a record of it."

While Ichigo Kurosaki waited anxiously, Kisuke Urahara calmly flipped through the ledger.

“Gi-soul pills… cell phone… Gi-hai… memory spray.” Kisuke Urahara’s expression gradually turned serious: “It seems that there really is a problem with our memories.”

Everyone immediately got the answer.

Kyoraku Shunsui exclaimed in surprise, "Oh... After being a Grim Reaper for so many years, this is truly the first time I've encountered something so miraculous."

Shinji Hirako said, "Now that it's been confirmed that our memories are faulty, well then, your name is Kurosaki Ichigo, right?"

"Ichigo Kurosaki, what are you planning to do? Are you going to come back with us?"

Ichigo Kurosaki shook his head: "No, I plan to go to Soul Society to see what exactly happened."

Kyoraku Shunsui was caught in a dilemma: "Hey, what should I do? Should I investigate Toshiro's matter or investigate this matter?"

"Toshiro?" Ichigo Kurosaki was taken aback. "What happened to him?"

Kyoraku Shunsui said in a deep voice, "He was killed!"

"What? Toshiro is dead?" Ichigo Kurosaki jumped up in shock again. "Could it be the person who kidnapped him who did it?"

Kyoraku Shunsui shrugged: "That's what I think for now. I'm trying to investigate, aren't I?"

“This…this…” Kurosaki Ichigo was at a loss.

"Toshiro?" Shinji Hirako asked, "Is he your new captain?"

Kyoraku Shunsui nodded: "Yes, he is the new captain of the 10th Division."

Hirako Shinji smiled and said, "I have a suggestion, I wonder what you all think."

Kisuke Urahara: "Tell me, Mr. Mako."

Hirako Shinji said, "How about we split into two groups and handle these two matters separately?"

"Our Visored Corps is not suited to go into Soul Society. Cooperating with Captain Kyoraku to investigate Toshiro's matter is a way to make up for our rash actions against Kurosaki-kun."
