At that moment, July's messenger delivered another urgent request for assistance: "This is Mitsuya Asada, the vice-captain of the 7th Division. We are requesting medical support from the southwest of the upper reaches of the valley!"
"Captain Takeshi's condition is extremely critical; we request medical assistance!"
Soon, Unohana's voice came through the communication machine: "Vice Captain Shikatori, how's the situation on your end? Do you have time to provide medical support to Captain Taketsuna?"
In July, after glancing at the medical team's situation—they had already provided emergency treatment to the wounded and their evacuation was almost complete—he said:
"This is Shikamori Nanatsu. The medical team is currently transferring the wounded in the middle of the valley. I can go and support Captain Nobuzane!"
The upper reaches of the valley are quite dangerous, and July didn't want Yoruichi to go with her, so she told her, "I have an urgent mission to handle right now, but the safety of the medical team and the wounded is also very important."
"In case there are any enemies left behind, you and the covert mobile team will be responsible for escorting the medical team to the medical position."
"Yes!" Yoruichi said earnestly, "Don't worry, teacher, I will definitely protect the medical team!"
July already understands Yoruichi's personality quite well. If she were to directly tell Yoruichi that the upper reaches of the valley are dangerous and that she shouldn't follow, it would easily trigger a rebellious attitude.
But if she is given an important task that requires her to complete, she will stay behind to protect the medical team.
"Be careful. If you encounter a strong enemy, use the Divine Messenger to request reinforcements in time."
"Yes, teacher, please be careful on your journey."
After bidding farewell to Yoruichi and the others in July and explaining the situation to the medical team, he headed upstream in the valley.
To avoid encountering Quincy on the road and wasting time, he used his shadow abilities while traveling.
Although Quincy are far more sensitive to spirit particles than Shinigami, most Quincy are unable to detect Shichiki Shikatri, who is hiding in the shadows.
The shadows of grass, trees, and stones changed rapidly, extending and connecting, and July swiftly moved through the shadows.
July quickly arrived at the area where Captain Takeshi was located.
He emerged from the shadows, startling the tense Vice-Captain Asada Mitsuya.
July said, "Don't be nervous, I am Shikagiri July, here to provide medical support."
Asada Hikaru hurriedly said, "That's great! Come quickly and check on the captain, he's dying!"
Upon arriving in July and seeing the injuries sustained by Shigeo Takeo, he immediately felt a sense of urgency.
Wu Gang was already unconscious. He had a huge penetrating wound in his abdomen, which almost split his entire body in two.
If it weren't for Asada Hikaru's efforts to keep Executive Nobuzane alive, he probably would have died before July arrived.
In July, after examining the wound, it was found that the two vital points, the Lock Knot and the Soul Sleep, were undamaged, but the Spirit Pressure Core had suffered some damage.
Executive Nobukatsu was already old, much older than Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni, and his strength was no longer at its peak. This damage to his spiritual pressure core was undoubtedly adding insult to injury.
Although his spiritual pressure core wasn't damaged as severely as that of Baiyunzhai, he will probably find it difficult to continue serving as captain.
Of the original captains still in office, only Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni and Unohana Retsu will likely remain.
July sighed inwardly. He had never communicated with Executive Nobukatsu, but seeing another first captain about to step down, he couldn't help but feel a little sentimental.
"Please rest assured, Vice Captain Asada, I can protect Captain Taketsuna's life."
July used the Return Path to treat Captain Nobuzane while inquiring about the battle situation, "What kind of enemy could possibly injure Captain Nobuzane like this!"
Asada Hikaru seemed to recall something terrifying, and couldn't help but shudder: "That Quincy woman was terrifying..."
"At the beginning, she was no match for the captain at all, and was almost completely suppressed with no chance to fight back..."
"But then she took off one of her gloves, and all the surrounding spiritual particles converged on her, and a wing made of spiritual particles sprouted from her back..."
"Then she used just one hit to knock the captain into this state!"
July's heart stirred; Asada Mitsuya's description reminded him of the "Spirit Scattering Gloves"!
The "Spirit Gloves" are a powerful tool used by Quincy.
When Quincy wear the "Spirit Gloves," they can enhance their ability to influence spiritual particles. If they remove the "Spirit Gloves," they can gain immense power.
However, after that, the Quincy who removes the "Scattering Gloves" will lose their Quincy abilities.
July understood that if it was a Quincy who had used the "Spirit Dispersal Gloves," then they were indeed capable of severely injuring Executioner Nobuaki.
July was still a little confused as to why the Quincy didn't press their advantage: "Did that Quincy leave after injuring Captain Nobuaki?"
Asada Mitsuya said, "After injuring the captain, she rushed towards the housing area without paying any attention to us."
Although the Quincy's strongholds covered the entire valley, their actual residential areas were located in the upper reaches of the valley.
Just then, July sensed that the flow of spiritual particles in the air had become very abnormal.
He turned his head and looked in the direction the spiritual energy was flowing, and what he saw was chilling:
—A Quincy woman with a spiritual light wing on her back is moving rapidly in this direction!
Chapter 106 The Kurosaki Clan
July knew what the spiritual light wings on the Quincy woman's back meant.
She is the Quincy who removed the "Spirit Dispersal Gloves"!
The spiritual particles in the air seemed to be on a pilgrimage, converging towards her and forming a visible turbulent flow of spiritual particles.
July quickly glanced at the Quincy's panel.
【Kurosaki Tsusaki】
[Talent: S]
[Spiritual Pressure: ??? (Scattered Spirit Form)]
【Spirit Particle Cluster: ??? (Scattered Spirit Form)】
[Reputation Level: Hostile]
The Quincy woman's basic data was no longer detectable at this point. Her spiritual pressure intensity and degree of control over spiritual particles were changing every moment, completely depending on the spiritual particle density of the current environment.
The Quincy stronghold is a spiritually rich area in the mortal world, with a spiritual particle density no less than that of the Soul Society. Therefore, her current strength has reached an extremely terrifying level.
Vice-Captain Asada bravely stepped forward: "Vice-Captain Shikatori, quickly lead the execution team to retreat!"
July grabbed him: "Don't go see her off, it doesn't seem like she's here for us!"
The intense spiritual energy emanating from the Quincy woman greatly affected the Shinigami's spiritual pressure perception, and Lieutenant Asada failed to sense what was happening behind him.
But how could July relax in such a dangerous battlefield environment? As he traveled, he constantly used Shadow Princess's ability to spread his shadow out, setting up eyes in various areas of the valley so that he could observe the battlefield situation at any time.
According to the feedback from the shadow's perspective, there was another powerful figure closely following the Quincy woman.
That's Kenpachi Kuruyashiki, the captain of the 11th Division!
Moreover, this Quincy woman was not alone; she was with two Quincy children, making it clear that she was fleeing for her life.
Asada Hikaru said anxiously, "She's already flying this way. If Vice Captain Shikato doesn't leave soon, it will be too late!"
“The execution captain’s injuries are too severe, and it will take some time for his condition to stabilize. He cannot be moved right now!” July continued to explain. “I sensed Captain Kenpachi’s spiritual pressure. He is chasing after that Quincy woman, so she shouldn’t be here to cause us trouble.”
To save Shichibu's life, treatment must continue, and July doesn't want to give up until the very last moment.
"Is Captain Kuruyashiki here too?" Asada Hikaru looked anxiously ahead.
Due to the turbulent flow of spiritual energy affecting his perception, he couldn't sense Kenpachi Kuruyashiki's spiritual pressure. However, as the two approached, he was able to sense Kenpachi Kuruyashiki's spiritual pressure through the turbulent flow of spiritual energy.
"I'll go stop her for Captain Kuruyashiki!" Asada Hikaru wanted to avenge his captain; he couldn't let this Quincy woman escape.
After Asada finished speaking, he used Shunpo to quickly approach the Quincy.
Mitsuya Asada was a specialist in demonic arts and even received an invitation from a great demonic master.
He stayed in the 7th Division to repay the kindness of the executor, Nobuaki, instead of becoming the vice-chief of the Kido Clan.
Therefore, he was quite confident in his level of demonic arts.
Asada Mitsuya chanted rapidly: "Chosen one of heaven, iron walls, dragons soar, lions roar, tigers howl, wolves run, sever heaven and earth before they collapse, the Eighty-first of the Binding Path - Severing the Void!"
A massive wall, several meters high, blocked the Quincy's path.
"Danku" is one of the most defensive Kido, capable of completely defending against all Hadoku below number 89. Asada Hikaru is confident that she can use the powerful defense of "Danku" to hold off the Quincy for a period of time, allowing Captain Kuruyashiki to catch up with her.
A massive wall appeared before Kurosaki Tsuki. She stopped abruptly, raised her right hand to form a spirit bow, and spirit particles rapidly condensed onto the bow.
Even the spirit particles that make up the "Void Wall" are no exception!
Asada Hikaru's expression changed drastically. The spiritual particles on the huge wall were rapidly extracted, and the originally unbreakable tall wall crumbled and collapsed at an extremely fast speed.
call out--
A beam of spiritual energy flashed, and Asada Mitsuya's entire body was hollowed out, his remains falling to the ground.
July felt a chill in her heart; with just one strike, a vice-captain was killed.
A Quincy in a scattered spirit state is truly terrifying!
However, she can't maintain this state for long. After the dissipation of her spirit ends, she will lose her Quincy abilities.
Therefore, she did not dare to get entangled with the powerful Kenpachi Kuruyashiki, but chose to escape this place while she still had the strength.
Although Asada Mitsuya was unable to withstand the attack, his "Sky Breaker" did indeed serve as a hindrance.
call out--
Kenpachi Kuruyashiki had already used Shunpo to get behind Tsuki Saki, raising his Zanpakuto high.
In the rush, Kurosaki Tsuki had only enough time to use her Spirit Wings to protect the two junior Quincy before being smashed down by the rapidly descending Zanpakuto.
bang——
Kurosaki Tsuki and two Quincy children fell into the valley.
Kenpachi Kuruyashiki gave chase.
But after chasing for a while, he realized that he could no longer sense the Quincy woman's spiritual pressure.
Despite several searches, no trace of the Quincy woman could be found.
"They can really run fast!" Kenpachi Kuruyashiki frowned, deciding not to waste any more time and instead return to the upper reaches of the valley, where there were still enemies to be eliminated.
After a long while, several bubbles appeared on the surface of the river downstream of the valley.
Kurosaki Tsukisaki surfaced, pulled the two unconscious Quincy children out of the water, and dragged them ashore.
What would normally be an easy task for her now requires her full effort.
She has lost her Quincy powers and no longer possesses any spiritual pressure.
This is what happens when you remove the "Spirit Dispersing Gloves".
Most importantly, she had a horrific wound on her waist, and her white dress, even her white boots, were stained with blood. Her life force was rapidly slipping away.
Kurosaki Tsukisaki mustered her strength and checked on her younger siblings.
They are still breathing.
This caused her to lose her breath, and then she completely lost all her strength and collapsed to the ground.
I tried several times, but I couldn't get up.
"Cough cough—" The boy woke up and coughed up the river water that had been choking him.
"Tsuki-nee!" The boy was horrified when he saw the horrific wound on Kurosaki Tsuki's abdomen.
"Quickly... wake up Seki Saki... cough cough..." Kurosaki Tsukisaki coughed up blood and said with difficulty, "Press on her chest... make her vomit the water..."
"Okay..." The boy frantically crawled over to the girl and began to perform first aid on her.
After a while, the girl spat out the river water that was stuck in her throat: "Cough cough—"
When the girl woke up, she saw Kurosaki Tsuki Saki lying on the ground and burst into tears, crying, "Tsuki Saki-nee!"
"Don't cry...we'll be found out...cough cough..." Kurosaki Tsukisaki said with difficulty, "Run along the river...watch out for death..."
"No! I don't want to leave Tsuki-chan behind, let's go together!"
"Cough cough... Don't be silly... I've been fatally wounded... I won't survive..."
The boy and girl cried for a while, and finally left after being persuaded by Kurosaki Tsuki.
However, what they didn't know was that the silent shadows on the ground were watching everything that was happening here.
call out--
No sooner had the boy and girl left than July carried the unconscious Executive Nobuaki to Kurosaki's side in a flash.
