In Soul Society, I just want to retire

The first person to provide information to Ukitake was none other than his best friend, Kyoraku Shunsui.

"Harusui... why are you here? Aren't you very busy now?" Ukitake smiled bitterly. Of course he knew why his good friend came. Kyoraku Shunsui is now the vice-captain of the 8th Division and has a lot of tasks. He didn't expect that he could still find time to come and see him.

"I'm not here to help you cheat. I'm here to remind you that this mission is not easy. You must be careful and not be careless." Kyoraku Shunsui's face was solemn. "I will now tell you the reasons and consequences of the disappearance of these villages."

Fuzhu knew that this was a very important situation and did not dare to be careless. He quickly sat up straight.

"This story started half a month ago..." Kyoraku Shunsui narrowed his eyes and began to narrate.

Half a month ago, it was still the end of summer. A woodcutter went up the mountain to chop wood. He was too tired and accidentally fell asleep in the forest. When he returned to the village, he found that although the village was still there, all the creatures in the village had disappeared.

There was clearly half-eaten food on the table, water boiling in the pot, and the quilt on the bed looked like it had been covered by someone, but there was no one in the village, as if these people had disappeared at the same time.

The woodcutter was very scared and rushed to other villages at night, only to find that other villages were in the same situation.

Terrified, he found the local Grim Reaper and reported the situation.

Chapter 180: Weird Things

Ukitake Jushiro felt a little nervous as he listened to his good friend telling this story. Why did it sound like the ghost ship story that his teacher had told him before?

During special training in the past, Yamabuki Ditang took the two boys to practice in the deep mountains. Because the weather was too hot and they couldn’t sleep at night, they often liked to tell all kinds of ghost stories.

The two boys were still young at the time. They knew they were ghosts, but they were still scared by these stories and didn't dare to go out to the toilet at night.

But now that Fuzhu has grown up, he has a vague idea of ​​the truth.

"There should be a very powerful spirit appearing around Yi, right? The spiritual pressure is too strong, and ordinary souls will disappear as soon as they get close. That should be the reason, right?" Ukitake said.

Kyoraku Shunsui shook his head slightly. "Everyone thought so at first, believing that a powerful Hollow might be lurking in the area, and they sent out a large group of Shinigami. However, just three days ago, all contact with these Shinigami was lost. Second Division Captain Chihiro Shihouin reported this to the General Staff as quickly as possible, and they are waiting for their response."

Ukitake Jushiro frowned.

It is understandable that a powerful spiritual pressure could make an ordinary person's soul dissipate, but the soul of a god of death is many times stronger than that of an ordinary person. Even if a captain-level spiritual pressure does nothing, it is impossible to make a god of death's soul dissipate.

"At that time, the General Staff sent a deputy captain to investigate. It turned out that the clothes and swords of these Grim Reapers were still there, but the people had disappeared out of thin air. The scene was very bizarre and strange, and it has now become an unsolved mystery. That's why I warn you not to take it lightly. This matter is by no means as simple as it seems." Kyoraku Shunsui said.

"Kyōraku, do you know who the vice-captain leading the investigation is? I'd like to ask for details," Ukitake said.

"No need to go out. I'm the deputy captain leading the investigation. If you have any questions, just ask me." Kyoraku Shunsui said.

"Are there any signs of fighting at the scene?" Ukitake asked the most important question.

If a powerful Hollow appeared to fight the Shinigami, it would be understandable why the villagers and the Shinigami disappeared.

"No. If there were traces of a fight at the scene, there would definitely be blood, torn clothes, and a broken knife. However, none of these things were found at the scene. The clothes fell to the ground intact, and the knife blade had no broken or cracked marks. Judging from these clues, no fight took place at the time." Kyoraku Shunsui said.

"What about the spiritual pressure reaction? If a Hollow appears, it will definitely leave a corresponding spiritual pressure."

"No, it's very strange. I didn't feel any spiritual pressure there, not even the spiritual pressure of the God of Death." Kyoraku Shunsui said.

That's strange!

There was no fighting, no Hollows, so how did those villagers disappear? And how did the Shinigami who were responsible for investigating disappear?

These things are totally illogical.

Could it be that supernatural events also occur in a place like Soul Society?

This is too outrageous!

"At that time, I retrieved some Shinigami and Zanpakuto and placed them in the Eighth Division. If you want to see them, I can get them for you." Kyoraku Shunsui said.

Ukitake nodded and went to the Eighth Division with Kyoraku Shunsui.

The first thing to investigate was the clothes of the missing team members. The clothes were very neat. It felt like the people suddenly turned into air and disappeared, and the clothes fell neatly to the ground without any missing pieces.

Ukitake picked up the clothes and shook them gently, and accidentally shook a hole in the Shiba suit.

"Be careful! This is a very important mission." Jingle said.

But Ukitake immediately discovered the blind spot: "How could the Death Hagaku be torn so easily by me? Don't forget, the Death Hagaku was made by Miss Shutara Senjumaru. It's extremely tough. How could it be torn by a mere shake?"

unless……

Ukitake picked up another Shiba costume and shook it gently again. As expected, this costume was also torn.

This is very telling.

"Either these clothes were made with shoddy materials, or... they are related to the disappearance of these Shinigami," Ukitake said.

Kyoraku Shunsui held the broken pieces of Shihaku in his hands and fell into deep thought.

"I'm going to the scene now. Maybe I can find some new clues. Can you take these clothes to ask Miss Shudoro, under what circumstances would these Death Trousers become so fragile?" Ukitake said.

"No problem, leave this matter to me." Kyoraku Shunsui carefully put away the broken Shinigami suits.

Ukitake Jushiro took his Zanpakutō and went straight to the place where the village population disappeared. Coincidentally, the second division vice-captain, Tobiko Hachi, was also investigating here.

"Deputy Captain Fuzhu! Are you here to participate in the trial mission?" Feng Yuan asked.

Ukitake Jushiro touched his head and smiled: "Vice-Captain Feng Yuan, have you found anything?"

Feng Yuan nodded solemnly: "Come with me."

Fuzhu followed Fengyuan to the center of a village. Did you notice any difference between the center of the village and the outside?

Ukitake observed carefully and suddenly realized why there was no building in the middle. It was like a donut, hollowed out in the middle.

Fuzhu hurriedly reached out to touch the ground. Generally, when building a house, the foundation would be built first, and only after the foundation was laid would the tall building be built. If there was no foundation here, it would mean that the village itself was empty in the middle, but here he found the foundation, which means that there was originally a building on this empty land.

But for some unknown reason, these buildings disappeared without a trace, leaving only deep foundations.

This situation became more serious as one moved inward, until the edge of the village was almost unaffected by this strange situation.

"What does this mean?" Fuzhu began to ponder.

The people were gone, and the buildings were gone.

Moreover, there was no concept of UFOs in this era, so it was impossible that aliens did it. What's more, even if aliens really existed, could they contact the Soul Society?

Fuzhu walked outward from the center of the village and found many damaged buildings at the junction of the open space and buildings.

There is only half of the house and only half of the stone gate. In short, it is very strange, and these things are incomplete.

"Could it be that a huge explosion occurred in the center of the village! Everything was destroyed in an instant! But... why did the villagers outside the village also disappear?" Fuzhu was puzzled.

Moreover, there were no broken walls under these damaged buildings. The broken parts seemed to have disappeared out of thin air.

Chapter 181: Am I Proud of Cheating Openly?

This situation was too strange. Ukitake Jushiro had never seen such a scene in his two hundred years of life.

It's like using a bomb to blow up a wall. After half of the wall is blown to pieces, there will definitely be fallen cement, stones and other debris. But now, these debris are like being eaten by a lifeless big mouth, disappearing without a trace.

"Deputy Captain Feng Yuan, you are knowledgeable and experienced. Have you ever seen such a situation?" Fu Zhu asked humbly.

Feng Yuan's eyes changed slightly, with a hint of embarrassment, and he seemed to be hesitant to speak.

As soon as he saw the other person's expression, he knew there was something fishy going on. He said in a more sincere tone, "This matter concerns the lives of so many people. Please tell me the truth."

Feng Yuan was helpless and could only reveal a little bit of the information he knew.

"That was two or three hundred years ago, when the Gotei 13 were just established. One time, the three of us, Vice Captain Suzuki, and the Chief of Staff, went on a mission to conquer Hueco Mundo, but we were blocked by Bylergan, the King of Demand at the time! You may not know that the Chief of Staff at the time was not as powerful as it is now. To use today's terms, he was at most at the vice-captain level. Facing the King of Hueco Mundo, even if the three of us joined forces, we would not be his opponent." Feng Yuan's thoughts seemed to have flown far away.

"It turns out that the teacher also grew up step by step! What happened next? How did you escape? Was it the captains at that time who took action? Or did you use some other method to escape?" asked Fuzhu.

"No, I didn't escape..." The struggle on Feng Yuan's face became increasingly apparent. "I'm telling you this to no one but you. You absolutely cannot tell anyone else. The Chief of Staff used a power that didn't belong to the God of Death to turn the tide of the battle."

Fuzhu's heart trembled slightly. This wasn't the power of the god of death?

Could it be that the tragedies in these villages were also caused by the power of death?

"The ability the Chief of Staff used at the time is called the Perfect Holy Body, the Quincy's final form. Once activated, this form will frantically devour the surrounding Reishi. I saw with my own eyes that a huge pit was devoured in the desert of Hueco Mundo. It was with this powerful force that the Chief of Staff turned the tide of the battle and won." Feng Yuan said, "That scene... I feel a bit similar to this scene now!"

Swallowing...spiritual particles?

This was a path Ukitake Jushiro had never imagined.

The God of Death cannot control the spirit particles at will. Controlling the spirit particles is the ability of the Quincy. Although the older generation knows that Yamabuki Detang controls multiple powers at the same time, the younger generation has no idea about this, so they are still shocked when they suddenly hear about it.

"Do you suspect that the teacher is responsible for this... No, no, no, this is absolutely impossible. The teacher has no reason to do this." Fuzhu's mind began to wander.

Feng Yuan hooked his middle finger with his thumb, blew twice, and then tapped Fuzhu's forehead hard.

"It hurts! Senior Feng Yuan?"

"Why are you so stupid? What I meant by saying this is not to doubt the Chief of Staff! But to suspect... that the Quincy will make a comeback!" Feng Yuan said in a low voice.

When the Invisible Empire invaded, Feng Yuan was the captain of the second squad.

Although the battle lasted only one day, its intensity was unprecedented. Yhwach's full-time omnipotence, Yamabuki Deto's control over time and space, and the captain's Zanka-dachi, all these terrifying abilities were unleashed within a single day!

The place where the Zanhuo-dachi had chopped it is still a scorched earth, with no grass growing there forever.

Upon hearing the news, Fuzhu's expression finally changed. He was not born when the war broke out, but he learned from his parents that it was a catastrophe for two countries.

In that battle, Mr. Yamabuki and Captain-General Fu joined forces to kill the Emperor of the Invisible Empire, Yhwach, and established their position in one battle.

From then on, no one could shake their status in Soul Society.

"Could it be that... Yhwach didn't die back then? He came back alive?" Ukitake was extremely confused and hurried back to Seireitei and came to Yamabuki Detang's office.

Yamabuki Detang was drinking tea in the office when he saw Ukitake walking in hurriedly.

"Ukitake? The trial mission was completed so quickly? Quite efficient!" Yamabuki Ditang looked at Ukitake in surprise. He knew that Ukitake was very smart, but he didn't expect that he could complete the mission so quickly.

Ukitake was panting and coughing non-stop, unable to utter a complete sentence. Yamabuki Ditang helped him to straighten his breath, and Ukitake finally spoke with difficulty: "No, I haven't completed the mission yet. I just have something I want to ask the teacher. According to the conditions of the trial mission, you can also provide me with some information!"

"Of course. What do you want to ask?" asked Yamabuki Ditang.

Ukitake looked at his teacher solemnly, then asked nervously, "Were the cases of the disappearance of those villages caused by the teacher?"

Yamabuki Detang didn't understand what Ukitake meant for a moment. After thinking about it for a while, she realized that Ukitake was asking if he was the one who caused the disappearance of those villages in Rukongai?

"Well...what do you think?" Yamabuki Ditang knew that Ukitake was not the kind of person who would make jokes casually. Since he asked, he must have found some clues.

Fuzhu was about to speak when he continued coughing. He was already very weak, and now that he had caught a bad cold, his cough became even worse.

"Cough cough cough! I, cough cough cough!" Once Ukitake started coughing, it was difficult to stop, and Yamabuki Ditang could only help him regulate his breathing again.

Now Yamabuki Ditang is worried that Ukitake will go over there in excitement.

"Actually, it can't be considered as evidence. According to the information revealed by Vice Captain Feng Yuan, the traces of the village's disappearance are very similar to the traces of absorbing spirit particles. Moreover, there shouldn't be many people in Soul Society who can absorb spirit particles, right? Teacher is one of them, right?" Ukitake said while coughing.

"It's not that there aren't many, but I'm the only one. So I'm the biggest suspect?" Yamabuki Ditang pinched his chin and thought of the Quincy in an instant. Manipulating spirit particles is the Quincy's forte, but few people can absorb spirit particles on a large scale.

In the original story of "Bleach", the first person to show the ability to absorb soul particles was Ishida Uryu. When he first broke into Soul Society, after learning the true cause of his grandfather's death, he took off his soul-scattering gloves and his own abilities increased drastically. He jumped from a small Quincy to a strong man who could rival the captain level, causing Kurotsuchi Mayuri to suffer a small loss.

Later, in the Thousand Year Blood War, when L. Kirud, the first Knight of the Stern Cross, opened his Holy Body, he began to devour the spirit particles of Hueco Mundo crazily. This ability was called "Holy Slave" by the Quincy.

"You mean, the Quincy has made a comeback?" Yamabuki Ditang asked uncertainly.

"Probably!"

Chapter 182: What a pretty girl!

The Quincy.

When this name was mentioned, Yamabuki Ditang felt a headache.

After Yhwach's defeat, the Quincies who followed him hid in various corners. A large number of them believed that Yhwach would come back again and lead the Quincies to the top of the world. And at some point, a song appeared among the Quincies.

"The King of the Quincy will have nine hundred years to regain his heartbeat, ninety years to regain his consciousness, nine years to regain his power, nine days to conquer the world, and nine seconds to be slain by the broadsword!"

The last sentence was added by me.

It can be seen that even though Yhwach’s Sterncross Knights fell apart during the war, there was still a large number of people supporting Yhwach.

Ukitake waited for Yamabuki Detang's answer.

"Why are you looking at me? I don't have an answer on my face! I've handed this matter over to you, so just do it. Whether it's the Quincy or Yhwach, they have become history. If they appear again, let them become history." Yamabuki Ditang said nonchalantly.

Because he knew that at this point in time, it was impossible for Yhwach to be reborn.

There were still about seven hundred years until his resurrection.

Yamabuki Detang's spiritual pressure can be infinitely improved. It only took her half a year to go from an ordinary soul to a duel with Yhwach.

Seven hundred years later, I still don’t know how terrifying I will be. Besides, seven hundred years later, I will not be fighting alone.

Even if Captain Yamamoto's Ryujin Jakka could no longer keep up with the version updates, and Hyoshubu Ichibei was killed instantly when he met him, we have Aizen, we have Kurosaki Ichigo, and we have all the traitors in the Sterncross Knights. Victory will definitely be ours then.
