In Soul Society, love and bond begin

It transformed into a series of transparent tentacles that kept wriggling and entangled.

Yhwach looked at the knife, his eyes narrowed slightly.

As if noticing his gaze, Ni Gu Cai Zang let out a low laugh.

"Jiejiejie——"

"Let me show you my true strength."

The moment the words fell.

The tentacles, which looked like jelly, fragile and wriggling, suddenly had sharp thorns on the end of their handles, which went straight through Ni Gu Cai Zang's dry palms, making a series of tiny sounds.

As if he noticed the fluctuation in the flow of spiritual pressure, Yhwach did not hesitate, and with a flash of his sickle kick, his figure suddenly appeared in front of Nigushi Saizo.

The wind was howling, so close at hand.

The cross-shaped knife of destruction slashed across at high speed, cutting straight towards the withered arm of Ni Gu Cai Zang.

However, Ni Gu Cai Zang showed a sarcastic smile on his face.

"puff!"

Before the Cross Blade of Extermination could land on his shoulder, he saw that the 'Glass Piercing Leech Induction' had already spread rapidly into Nigu Caizang's body like countless transparent iron nematodes.

And the moment the blade landed on the surface of his body, his dry and thin body, supported by the translucent insect body, exploded with a bang.

Leather-like fragments flew through the air.

A large amount of thick white fog spread in all directions along the gap in his body, instantly submerging the land within a radius of dozens of meters.

In this thick fog, the two could only barely see each other's figures.

Yhwach frowned.

Thinking of Hirudo's parasitic ability, he subconsciously avoided the fragments.

However, Ni Gu Cai Zang chuckled softly:

"it's useless."

"The leader of the Quincy."

"This scene is the last of your life."

Accompanied by the endless thick fog that gushed out from Nigu Caizang's body, his deformed, hunched and thin body was actually slowly standing up and straightening, and his figure seemed to have grown taller.

When the thick fog had surrounded the surroundings, a translucent insect body extended from the broken shoulder gap, connected to the arm that had fallen to the ground, and embedded itself back into his body.

Ni Gu Cai Zang has empty hands, and his eyes are like red stars under his drooping long eyebrows.

When he looked at Yhwach, his eyes were filled with murderous intent.

"The glass thread is pierced with leeches."

"This is the true Bankai that I have cultivated over the past thousand years in order to kill that man."

"In this space, as long as you stay."

"Whether it's moving, speaking, or even breathing..."

“Just leave a trace in this space.”

"So......"

A ferocious smile slowly appeared on Nigu Caizang's old face:

"You're dead."

However, Yhwach still had that arrogant look on his face, looking coldly at the thick fog around him.

"Oh, is it so?"

Even his tone was cold and indifferent.

Looking at his calm appearance, it seemed as if I was thinking of a man who I had always hated since my youth.

Ni Gu Cai Zang's face suddenly darkened.

Before Yhwach could make any move, he disappeared into the thick fog like a dark shadow.

Yhwach looked at his figure disappearing into the mist, and twitched his lips in disdain:

"hide and seek."

"Child's play."

Almost at the moment when he finished speaking, he suddenly swung his sword towards the back. A clear blue-green arc passed through the surface of the blade, drawing a curve in the air.

"Qianglang——"

A figure flashed through the originally empty mist. The seemingly thin Ni Gu Cai Zang had translucent blades like knives extending from his arms.

The attack hidden behind him, ready to strike, happened to collide with this unexpected knife.

There was only a brief stalemate, and Ni Gu Cai Zang was knocked flying by the powerful blow, spinning in the air and falling to the ground.

Immediately afterwards, he stomped his feet on the ground, changed direction like an arrow, and rushed to the opposite side again.

Yhwach held the sword in one hand and casually blocked the blade from the opposite side as if playing.

But as time went on, I became more and more aware of certain abnormalities.

My body is getting heavier, my reactions are getting slower, and my wrists are becoming unstable...

how come?

I've been holding my breath since the beginning.

What's more, the spiritual pressure of the guy in front of him is far lower than his own.

Why am I still affected by this fog? !

What kind of poison is this?

"you..."

"You should have noticed it, right?"

Feeling the force coming from the blade opposite, Ni Gu Cai Zang, who had been jumping around like a monkey since a while ago, suddenly spoke out of the blue.

The old man had an ugly smile on his wrinkled face. Beneath his dark skin, it seemed as if there were hideous blood vessels wriggling between his muscles, providing him with a constant supply of youthful strength.

Even the voice seemed to lack the phlegm sound commonly heard by the elderly.

'Is he getting better?'

Yhwach widened his eyes slightly and looked at Nigu Caizang with a slightly solemn expression.

As if noticing his changing expression, Ni Gu Cai Zang finally couldn't help but chuckle.

"That's right! That's right!"

"That's it."

"Young people with talent like you are completely incapable of understanding how much a fool like me would have to pay to earn your respect!"

"Whether it's Yamamoto, Fujimiya, or... you."

Ni Gu Cai Zang's voice gradually lowered and became more slow: "Don't misunderstand, leader of the Quincy."

"There's nothing childish like toxins in this thick fog."

"Every particle and every drop of water here...are all made up of my body."

Upon hearing this, Yhwach's pupils suddenly constricted as if he realized something.

Ni Gu Cai Zang looked up at him.

Smile.

The next moment, his decayed, dark face gradually melted into a pool of soft mud like heated jelly.

However, Yhwach did not feel relieved at all.

On the contrary, some abnormal changes suddenly occurred inside his body.

Belly, chest, back, limbs, cheeks...

Yhwach trembled with difficulty.

Inside each part of his body, there seemed to be a fully formed child, constantly pushing and pulling the muscles and skin, causing his body to swell and fall continuously, creating a strange phenomenon of expansion and contraction.

"What on earth is this..."

Yhwach made a sound of surprise.

And from within his body, Ni Gu Cai Zang's vicious words came out: "How is it? How do you feel now! Leader of the Quincy!"

"These white mists that spew out from my body are all made up of my body."

"The moment you step into this area, every particle here will continuously flow into your body through your mouth, skin, and every pore, and continuously gather within you."

"Ultimately, with the nutrients in your body, I was formed!"

Ni Gu Cai Zang's voice was sharp and piercing, carrying a hint of the madness that only belongs to an artist: "Only in this way can we be the greatest parasite in the world!"

"Thank me, Yhwach!"

"Your life will become the perfect footnote to my great success!"

The more he shouted, the more intense the torment in his body became.

When the sound reached its peak, it was as if there were three or four babies inside Yhwach's tall and strong body, pushing his skin and muscles at the same time.

The scene was extremely hideous.

However......

"Ok?"

It seems that some abnormality has been discovered.

Ni Gu Cai Zang uttered a strange questioning sound.

On Yhwach's back, one can almost clearly see a complete set of human facial features printed on his latissimus dorsi.

"Why can't I get out?"

Ni Gu Cai Zang seemed to have suddenly realized something, and there was a hint of trembling in his voice.

"Oh?"

"you caught me."

Thus, Yhwach, who seemed to be in extreme pain just now, returned to his original cold expression without any warning.

"Snapped!"

Don't wait for Ni Gu to react.

Then I saw a big hand suddenly pressing on my back.

Just caught the forehead of the face.

The expression on Nigu Caizang's face seemed to stiffen for a moment.

next moment.

"boom--"

The spiritual pressure in Yhwach's body suddenly exploded, and the ultra-high density of spirit particles, at the moment of concentrated explosion, also disrupted the spiritual pressure circulation in his body with ultra-high-speed spirit particle turbulence.

At the same time, countless spirit particles ignited the blood vessels, forming dense and interwoven spirit particle veins on Yhwach's body surface, turning into the strongest static blood armor.

The Ni Gu Cai Zang, who was hiding in Yhwach's body as a spirit particle, was suddenly caught by this sudden attack. His whole body was pulled out wildly, and he couldn't stop emitting shrill wails.

Get out of my body!

Yhwach's voice was low and dull, and the muscles and veins in his arms bulged simultaneously.

With just this sound, Ni Gu Cai Zang, who had half of his body buried in his body, was pulled out straight away and slammed to the ground with a loud bang.
