In Soul Society, love and bond begin

did not expect...

"That attack just now covered an area of ​​at least ten spirit miles, right?"

He thought about it in his mind and asked subconsciously.

Upon hearing this, Ukitake Jushiro paused slightly.

"Ryoma."

He suddenly spoke.

Kuriyashiki turned his head in confusion at the sound of his voice.

Then, Shi Silang suddenly smiled brightly and said in a broad-minded manner, "It seems that the two of us are still very far away from being 'real captains'."

"..."

Long Ma was stunned when he heard this, then he let out a long sigh and said viciously, "Indeed! I don't know how long this endless stream of official duties will last!"

“It’s terrible.”

"Hey, you're always slacking off, aren't you? I'm the one doing all the team work for Captain Fujimiya!"

"That's called field work, a field mission! I have to run around everywhere..."

Listening to the two people's unpleasant complaints, Aizen turned his gaze to their faces.

Whether it was Vice Captain Kuriyashiki or Third Officer Ukitake, their eyes seemed to have something ignited, emitting a dazzling light.

The real captain...?

Aizen Sosuke recalled the scene just now.

Are these two people willing to stay in the 9th Division as deputies because they are targeting Fujimiya Makoto?

He didn't forget the Bankai that Kuyashiki Ryoma had used before.

Even among the official captains, more than half of them wouldn't be able to exert that kind of terrifying power, right?

"You're asking for trouble..."

Aizen murmured as if feeling a little emotional.

Like self-mockery.

In just a short while, the exploration team, led by the Kuriyashiki team, returned to the ground level along the original route.

The night sky of Hueco Mundo is still dim, but compared to the underground layer where there is only moss for lighting, this surface desert at least has scattered starlight as a guide.

Fujimiya Makoto walked to the front of the team, looking at the vast desert in front of him, frowning slightly.

Even though the distance was extremely long, with his intuition, he could still clearly sense the huge spiritual pressure reactions that appeared in the distance and burst out unscrupulously.

"really."

"There are more than two of those monsters."

"The other party in the fight is...Var Stoddard?"

Even though he still knew nothing about Sar Apollo's plan, Fujimiya Makoto instinctively sensed...

Hueco Mundo, I'm afraid things are about to change.

Just as Fujimiya Makoto was thinking this, his gaze suddenly paused.

The Death Gods behind him also noticed the strange phenomenon in the sky and couldn't help but exclaimed:

"Then, what is that?!"

Aizen raised his head and followed everyone's gaze.

Then, a beam of blazing white light rose from the other side of the horizon and shot straight into the sky, forming a giant white tower that looked like a pillar of heaven, enough to light up the entire night sky of Hueco Mundo.

......

"Oh, damn bastard."

The blood-stained black giant axe in Bylergan's hand was inserted into the sand, and the spiritual pressure around him formed a black smoke that seemed to have substance, constantly swirling and rising like steam.

In the two empty holes under the skull crown, ghostly fire flickered constantly.

The original purple robe, which symbolized nobility and supremacy, now had some mottled holes on it - just like after Kurosaki Ichigo attained Bankai, even his clothes represented a part of his Bankai.

Byakugan's robe is also a part of his body...or rather, a part of his spiritual pressure.

Just looking at his tattered appearance now, you can tell that his condition is not very good.

but...

"Boom."

The unicorn's body fell to the side, and most of it was corroded by the mist of aging. Now only a skeleton was left that barely supported the torso, but its weight was still astonishing.

Most of the Yachukas who had followed Bylergan at first were now dead, leaving only a few who were either talented or had first-class life-saving abilities.

However, even they still felt a lingering fear when they saw the corpse that had lost its power.

"Dead, dead?"

"probably."

Noitra's left arm was completely broken, and even his leg was cut off once. At this moment, he was lying on the ground with difficulty, recovering his body at super-speed regeneration.

Fortunately, his mask remained intact throughout.

Despite this, he no longer had the strength to move.

What a monster.

Noitra's eyes kept moving back and forth between Bylergan and the corpse, and he couldn't help revealing some uncontrollable fear.

After witnessing Vastod giving his all, he felt for the first time the huge gap between himself and them.

As weak as a baby.

Among all the people, only Bylergan remained standing, looking into the distance as if he had sensed something.

I could faintly hear the sound of teeth grinding.

......

"What kind of monster is this?"

Nelliel held a knight's lance in her hand and stomped her hooves on the sand, raising a fine cloud of dust.

The expression on her pretty face remained tense, and she pointed the tip of her gun at Frankenstein, who was collapsed in the middle of the pit in front of her.

Because there were no other Achucas or Vastods around, the one she encountered unfortunately failed to 'evolve' to the next stage.

Without the support of the luminous track, after being hit by thirteen shots from the 'Emerald Shooter', it was finally unable to outlast Miss Nilu and was blown into a pool of rotten meat.

However, even though it had been blown into pieces, the Frankenstein in the pit was still wriggling and spreading towards the outer edge of the pit like a slug.

Nellielu is cautious by nature and always keeps a safe distance from him.

However, she had lived in Hueco Mundo for nearly a thousand years and had never seen anything like this before, so she was inevitably curious.

Just as she was looking at a small part of it with the tip of her bone spear, she saw that the sticky thing suddenly began to devour the spiritual pressure of the spear tip. She was so scared that she immediately threw it away along with her lance.

"boom!"

Another explosion sounded in the pit.

"It's better to stay away."

Miss Nilu made a careful choice.

Just as she was thinking this, she saw a beam of light suddenly rising from the distant horizon.

"..."

"What's that?"

There seem to be an extra lot of strange things happening today.

......

Obviously, there were more than just these three parties who witnessed this scene.

Almost half of the Hueco Mundo could see the torrent that seemed to be piercing through the dark night sky.

Among them, a small number of Vastod who had just survived Frankenstein's attack immediately connected it with the attacks they had previously suffered and began to move towards the direction where the light column rose.

In addition to them, even the Invisible Empire hidden in Hueco Mundo detected this special phenomenon.

However, after several rounds of discussion, they finally restrained themselves and chose to retreat on the defensive.

......

When Fujimiya Makoto led a group of people to the place where the beam of light came from.

There are already many rare guests here.

Several Vastodes of different appearances kept a certain distance from each other, looking at their "compatriots" around them with eyes that were either fearful or indifferent, who might rarely be seen in a hundred years. They always maintained a vigilant posture, leaving large gaps between each other.

Among them, the area around Bylergan, which has the greatest power and the best reputation in Hueco Mundo, is deserted except for a few of his Achukas subordinates.

Obviously, even among the Vastod, his strength is among the best.

It was not until Fujimiya Makoto and his group arrived here that he turned his head and looked at him with a fire in his eyes and a cold tone.

"Ho..."

"It's a shame to come so far to welcome you."

"I didn't expect that this little commotion in Hueco Mundo would actually summon you, the God of Death?"

"It's just like a swarm of insects that can't be killed."

After three hundred years, Bylergan has not changed much.

On the contrary, Fujimiya Makoto, who looked a little childish back then, has now become a mature and reliable adult, and even the fatigue and vicissitudes of life that are unique to adults after get off work are still there.

"It's been a long time, Lord Bylergan."

Fujimiya Makoto's tone was even, his eyes seemingly casually sweeping over Bylergan's slightly disheveled appearance. He casually brushed off the nonexistent dust on his sleeve and chuckled softly, "Three hundred years have passed, and I've actually been bitten by my former subordinates?"

"That's really not decent."

The phantom fire in Bylergan's eyes suddenly grew stronger, and the wild spiritual pressure around him roared up like a hurricane, buzzing and vibrating, and a terrifying power so huge that it was almost overwhelming swept down.

Fujimiya Makoto took a step forward, and the spiritual pressure in his body surged, and an aura more oppressive than Bylergan's violently swept across.

The spiritual pressures of the two collided and clashed with each other in the air as if they were real entities, and a faint, indistinct humming sound seemed to be heard in the air.

The mere aftermath of the confrontation was enough to make all the Shinigami and Hollows present feel a tightness in their chests, as if some invisible weight had been placed on their shoulders.

"...So it's you, little brat?"

Compared to human appearance, Bylergan is obviously better at identifying objects by spiritual pressure.

However, when he spoke this time, there was a hint of fear in his tone.

Compared to his all-out effort just now, the little Death Devil in front of him was obviously still holding back.

As he was thinking this, he caught a glimpse of several powerful Vastods around him, and Bylergan suddenly understood something in his mind - as expected, the Soul Society was still afraid of the combined power of Hueco Mundo.

However, the other Vastods always maintained an attitude of alienation and vigilance towards each other.

For Vastod, who fought and devoured each other from the Yachukas stage and finally evolved to this level.

'Trust' among peers is undoubtedly a luxury.

Among them, only Nellielu, who had just arrived, paused for a moment, kicked the sand twice with her front hooves a little uneasily, and shook her long tail slightly.

If you get closer, you can see the pink heart hidden in the depths of her eyes, flashing by.

"Has it actually come to this?"

Nellielu tightened the lance in her hand, but for a moment she didn't know how to face the Grim Reaper. She could only turn her head away with difficulty, looking as if she didn't know him at all.

Fujimiya Makoto's gaze lingered on Miss Nilu for a moment longer, as if he had sensed something, and his smile became particularly kind.

'Um? '

Harribel turned and looked at him.

The look that Lord Fujimiya gave that Vastod just now... seemed strangely familiar?
