Da da da-
In the first team building, the kendo practice hall, Ji Xing holds a wooden sword in both hands, stabbing, lifting, and chopping with high speed and consistency.
Several long white beards were flying in the air. Captain Yamamoto on the other side had his eyes darkened and glanced at Ji Xing's hands holding the wooden sword.
The normal gesture of holding a sword is to hold it at the base of the hilt, but at this moment Ji Xing held it at the bottom of the hilt, creating an extra hilt of attack distance out of thin air.
“Kid! There are a lot of tricks!” Captain Yamamoto hummed: “But... it’s still far from enough!”
钒—
His wooden sword was like a meteor, streaking through the air with the sound of wind and afterimages, and stabbing straight into Ji Xing's chest. Ji Xing also moved extremely fast, retracting his attack in an instant, holding the sword normally, and the wooden sword was about to touch him. When the time comes, open it.
Da da da-
There was another series of collisions. Ji Xing retreated and defended, until he was hit by a top-down slash that tilted his center of gravity backwards. Then he was hit by a horizontal slash and hit the corner of his clothes, causing him to flip backwards.
“Huh—” Ji Xing took a deep breath and said with some regret, “I almost hit it.”
"Almost hit? Your swordsmanship is indeed getting better." Captain Yamamoto sat down cross-legged and said the same thing: "But... it's still far from enough!"
"Yes, thank you very much for the advice, Captain." Ji Xing also sat down to rest: "Thank you for your hard work."
The captain closed his eyes and said nothing, and used his hands to straighten the beard that he usually maintained up to his chest.
After resting for a moment, he opened his eyes and said: "Kid, I feel an unsettled mood from your kendo today, and your mind is not as focused as before. Why, it's because you were arrested and arrested by Zhenyang Room 46 a few days ago. Warning? Never touch that kind of dangerous research again."
"I understand." Ji Xing said, "It's not because of that. It's because I've been feeling a little uneasy lately and I feel like something is going to happen."
The captain looked at him with majestic eyes: "If you have anything to say, just say it directly."
Ji Xing smiled and said, "I really can't hide it from you. In fact, the recent disappearance of wandering souls and the disappearance of gods of death and nobles have given me some bad associations."
"how?"
“You know Captain Hikifune’s research, making temporary souls, extracting the essence of the temporary soul into food with spiritual pressure, and using these essences to strengthen one’s spiritual body, further achieving the purpose of increasing spiritual pressure.”
Ji Xing said: "Over the years, following her research, I have also explored some. There is a limit to how the essence can strengthen one's own soul. When all the 'shortcomings' of the soul have been made up for, it is useless to take more essence. In other words In other words, it can only help a person reach the limit restricted by his talent."
This is also the reason why Captain Yamamoto did not take the essence. He has already reached the limit of what he can achieve.
“And want to go further.”
Ji Xing continued: "We can only break this limit, and according to my speculation, this limit is also the boundary between the God of Death and the Hollow."
The captain narrowed his eyes: "Xu?"
“The **** of death becomes virtual, the **** of death becomes virtual.”
–
Terrifying spiritual pressure pressed on Ji Xing's body in an instant. Captain Yamamoto stood up and stared at Ji Xing closely: "Kid! It seems you have conducted more than one dangerous research!"
Ji Xing showed a smile: "Everyone says that I am the strongest genius in the past thousand years. If it comes to combat talent, I will do my best, but the spiritual pressure talent... is actually just like that. Until now, I am almost the same as the captains. If I think about it on a higher level, Promotion may take decades or hundreds of years, but it is absolutely impossible to be promoted to your level."
This is true. The world of Demon Slayer is far different from the world of Death. The accumulation of soul strength in Demon Slayer can only go so far.
“You are not old, but your ambition is not small!” The captain commented: “Yono Masashi! You should know what you absolutely cannot do!”
"Yes, yes, don't be so excited. Being older is not good for your health." Ji Xing said with a smile.
The captain groaned and sat down again.
“If one day you do something dangerous, I will personally capture and kill you!”
He gave another stern warning before saying: "You mean...the disappearance of the soul is because someone is conducting a 'virtualization' experiment?"
"Well, it's somewhat similar. After the soul was broken through that boundary, it couldn't bear it anymore and committed suicide." Ji Xing nodded and said, "It's just suspicion."
Captain: "Kisuke Urahara?"
"No, the captain doesn't have that time." Ji Xing smiled and said: "If I had to point out a suspicious target, I would say Vice Captain Aizen."
"snort-"
The commander-in-chief could hear this sentence.
In the past few years, Ji Xing has mentioned Aizen whenever something happened. When he was late, he would always say, "I met Aizen on the road and was pestered to chat for a while."
Just at this moment, the voice of the deputy captain of the 1st Division, Takube, sounded outside the door: "Captain! A large number of hollow spiritual pressure fluctuations appeared in East Rukongai. It is suspected that a hollow cavity has been opened. Captain Silver Bell of the 6th Division should have contacted They encounter!"
“Hmm?!” The captain stood up suddenly: “Let the 11th division send reinforcements immediately!”
In terms of combat, the 11th Division has always been in charge. The team should have left. The captain was about to leave shortly after to make more preparations. Suddenly he heard Ji Xing say: "Captain, may I go? After all, I am also a noble. , and I also need to confirm what I just said."
The captain stared at him for three seconds.
“Go.”
…
The Sixth Division is a noble division, commanded by the Kuchiki family among the five nobles all year round.
After checking, a hole suddenly opened in the sky, and dozens of heads fell down. There is nothing else to say when the God of Death meets Xu, and a battle begins immediately.
These Hollows have various shapes, ranging from five to six meters high to more than ten meters tall. They wear ferocious masks and exude dangerous auras. However, they are all the lowest herbivorous Hollows. Under the encirclement and suppression of the Kuchiki family elites, One by one they were killed.
At this time, Kuchiki Byakuya was less than 50 years old. He still had the appearance of a teenager, with a stern face, immature but also aristocratic style. His strength was already good. He was basically two swords and one weak, efficient and fast.
"How's it going, Grandpa?" Byakuya asked his subordinates who came around him after killing another Xu.
“Sir Yin Ling thinks that there is something fishy about Xu Qiang’s revelation, so he has gone to find the root cause and asked Master Byakuya to be careful.”
"Ah, I don't have to worry about it." Byakuya used Shunpo to smash the mask of a Hollow again, making the damage disappear, and his expression suddenly changed slightly.
"That is?!"
“Master Byakuya, be careful!”
In the sky, directly overhead, the void suddenly seemed to be torn apart, and a huge dark hole opened, revealing a huge figure!
It should be over 50 meters tall, with a witch-like black coat and a clown-like mask. It has eye-catching features and the spiritual pressure it emits is amazing!
“There is actually a Daxu Kilian?!”
Kuchiki Byakuya shouted: "Stand back!"
His spiritual pressure was instilled into the Zanpakutō, and he chanted: "Scatter, Senbonzakura."
The beginning of the solution!
In an instant, his blade disintegrated into thousands of fragments, flying in the air as he moved, like beautiful cherry blossoms, but full of danger.
Byakuya waved the handle of the sword, and the cherry blossoms on the blade condensed into a white galaxy, drawing a beautiful arc in the air, rushing towards the low-level Great Void Kilian who was coming out of the hollow cavity.
The Milky Way revolves around.
Jilian's witch's coat was riddled with holes in an instant, and she was cut all the way to her neck. She let out a shrill scream, her head fell off, and she was killed!
The huge figure turned into a spirit and dissipated. The scattered Senbonzakura re-condensed into a sword in Byakuya's hand. The young Byakuya took a slight breath.
“Killian, killed in an instant?!”
"As expected of Master Byakuya!"
Facing everyone's exclamation, Byakuya looked back calmly and said, "Killian will show up unexpectedly. Koji, go and inform grandpa."
Kuchiki Koji, who was called by his name, did not move for a moment, but stared blankly.
The other members of Division 6 also showed shocked expressions: "Master Byakuya! Behind!"
Needless to say, Byakuya knew something was wrong when he saw this reaction and felt the spiritual pressure.
He had already turned around, and saw that the hollow cavity had not closed due to Killian's death, but had further expanded. There were actually more than a dozen figures appearing exactly like the Killian who had just been killed by him!
“How is it possible? So much nonsense?!”
Kilian was unconscious. More than a dozen of them were crowded in the cavity that was not big enough. No one could get out for a while. The three at the front seemed to be impatient, and red light condensed in front of their masks!
Byakuya has only seen this thing in books.
"Is it a false flash?! Back away!" Byakuya waved his left hand vigorously and his right hand waved his Zanpakutō.
Kilian’s Condensed Void Flash is very slow.
The blade turned into a cherry blossom again, and slashed at the Kilians as fast as possible, but the attack power of the blade was slightly insufficient. Just after killing one, the red light **** in front of the masks of the other two Kilians were already fully formed!
Amid the ear-piercing howl, the scarlet ball of light turned into a stream of light and blasted towards Byakuya! Byakuya quickly mobilized his Sakura Blades to block it, but was defeated in an instant!
“Master Byakuya!” The team members who retreated under his instructions shouted in panic.
"do not come!"
Byakuya had a chance to dodge in advance. Shunpo learned from Yoruichi and he was extremely fast. But he could dodge, but the team members couldn't.
At this time, faced with the false flash coming from the front, it was too late to hide, so he could only let out a low cut and release all his spiritual pressure to protect himself.
At the critical moment, a circular barrier made of golden light suddenly blocked him!
ifies 39-round gate fan? ’ As soon as this thought flashed through Byakuya’s mind, the virtual flash suddenly hit the circular fan of spiritual power. In an instant, the terrifying shock wave expanded, and the scarlet light annihilated everything!
His eyes were filled with this light, and Byakuya Kuchiki could only vaguely see the round gate fan blocking the false flash for a moment, diverting the power of the false flash, then he let out a muffled groan, and flew backwards as if being hit by a hill, until he felt that he was He was caught in mid-air and carried on his shoulders, and his mind relaxed slightly.
“Sorry, grandpa.” He said shyly.
"Well, I can't bear to be called Master Byakuya." A strange voice came to his ears.
"…Um?!"
The light of the impact gradually dissipated, and Byakuya, who was put back on the ground to stand firm, looked at the boy in front of him who looked similar to himself, his eyes twitching wildly.
“You...you are?!”
Ji Xing smiled and said: "It's the first time we meet, Master Byakuya, I am Yono Masashi."
“…” Byakuya gritted his teeth.
