Rukia Kuchiki's face turned even redder, like a ripe apple about to burst with juice. She buried her head in Ye Yun's chest and whispered, begging for mercy:
"Ye Yun, stop, stop being so erratic!"
After a morning and a midday of intense sensations, her body is now extremely sensitive.
"..."
"arrive!"
Kurosaki Ichigo roared, excitedly watching the light at the end of the dark passage.
Without hesitation, everyone rushed over.
One after another, the figures disappeared into the passage.
Two seconds after they left, Ju Tu rolled over with his berserk figure, and wherever he passed, all spiritual energy reactions disappeared.
"..."
The figures of the group descended from the sky and landed steadily on the soil of Seireitei.
What comes into view is no longer the solemn building of the past.
Instead, it was a scene of ruins and wreckage.
Various dilapidated buildings.
The ground was covered with all sorts of fragments.
You can even see black smoke rising from the ruins.
A few wisps of fire that had not yet gone out.
It felt like stepping into a post-war country, where everything appeared so dilapidated and desolate.
Kisuke Urahara was a little confused: "Is this really the Seireitei, or the 80th ward of Rukongai?"
He had lived for hundreds of years and experienced countless events, but he had never seen Seireitei in such a sorry state.
What kind of hell is the 80th ward of Rukongai?
Ye Yun muttered a speechless complaint, looked around at his surroundings, rubbed his chin, and said:
"Based on my experience in absorbing spiritual energy, this place must be either the Fifth Division or the Thirteenth Division. Only these two places have so many flower beds."
Yoruichi Shihōin said solemnly:
"This is the First Division. It must have been rebuilt after you left."
Ye Yun: "..."
He looked around in surprise: "Is this how Yamamoto's First Division is now?!"
Kisuke Urahara pressed down on his fisherman's hat and said gravely, "Gentlemen, the situation is even worse than we thought. I've checked several streets around here, and I haven't seen a single Grim Reaper."
There are no Shinigami in Seireitei!
What could be worse than this?
Just as everyone was carefully surveying their surroundings, Rukia Kuchiki struggled twice in Ye Yun's arms and weakly said:
"Ye Yun, can you put me down?"
Ye Yun then came to his senses, but when he put Kuchiki Rukia down, he looked at his damp palm with some oddity.
"Rukia, you..."
"Don't say it!"
Rukia Kuchiki glared at Ye Yun with shame and indignation, then whispered in a voice barely above a mosquito's buzz:
"Quick, quick, find me some clothes."
Ye Yun's expression became even stranger, and he simply draped his own clothes over Rukia Kuchiki.
Xiu Baixue snorted:
"Rukia, what a weakling."
Rukia Kuchiki blushed and dared not refute.
After surveying the scene, Yoruichi Shihouin said gravely, "The situation is not satisfactory. I saw many captains' Bankai here."
Kisuke Urahara: "The Thousand-Year Ice Prison created by Captain Hitsugaya's Daiguren Hyōrinmaru is still over there."
Tessai Wakabi: "The ground over there was completely shredded, no more than a centimeter in size. It must be Senbonzakura's Bankai."
Ichigo Kurosaki: "I fought Kenpachi Zaraki before, and the battle marks here were definitely left by him."
Uryū Ishida said coldly, "This is Mayuri Kurotsuchi's Bankai venom and gas. He used it when I fought him before."
Retsu Unohana stroked the ground, looking at the charred tiles, and said, "There are traces of the Captain-Commander's battle, but it doesn't look like Bankai."
If it were Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni's Bankai, the entire First Division would be completely ignited.
Suddenly, Ye Yun raised an eyebrow, grabbed Rukia Kuchiki, and in a flash, hid behind the broken wall:
"Come quick, someone's coming."
Without a word, the group quickly disappeared into various corners of the ruins.
Half a minute later.
Four strangely shaped creatures approached.
A creature that looked like a crocodile was carrying a large, serrated knife.
Another person had a feminine appearance and was holding a makeup mirror.
There was another one that was only half a meter tall, carrying a shovel.
The last one was not human at all; it was a dark red wild boar, but the hair on its back was made of blades.
Ishida Uryu's eyelids twitched, and he whispered:
"What the hell are these things?! They look even weirder than Captain Kashiwamura's?!"
Kisuke Urahara said solemnly, "These are the manifestations of Zanpakuto, and they should all be in their Shikai form, which is why they appear so strange."
Wo Ling Tiezhai couldn't help but say, "These Soul-Slaying Blades gathered together look like a bunch of demons and monsters."
People were talking about it.
The Soul-Slaying Blades were also discussing it.
The crocodile-shaped Zanpakuto materialized and looked at the effeminate man with a puzzled expression, saying:
"Azure Peacock, didn't you say you sensed spiritual energy here? How come you haven't seen a single remnant of the Grim Reaper?"
Another figure, carrying a shovel and wielding a Zanpakuto, also looked at the effeminate man with a similarly bewildered expression.
"Lady Ruriiro-iro Peacock, this is the First Squad. It was already cleared out by Lady Senbonzakura and Lady Katen Kyokotsu. Is there really anyone left?"
A flamboyant man with long, blue, braided hair and dressed in peacock-patterned clothing surveyed the surrounding ruins with great interest.
"Don't underestimate those Shinigami. Although they are no match for those with Bankai Zanpakuto, they have other powerful abilities, such as Kido, Hakuda, and Kendo..."
As he spoke, he pointed his right hand at the ruins in front of him and said with great interest:
"Just like here, I can clearly feel the spiritual power of death. Those are truly a bunch of ugly creatures, completely different from beautiful me. They only know how to hide and eke out a living..."
"To be honest, I can guess whose Zanpakuto this is."
Ye Yun stared at the peacock-like man with a face full of black lines.
With that narcissistic look, there's only one person he can think of in the entire Soul Society.
The fifth seat of the Eleventh Division!
Ayasegawa Yumichika!
"Fortunately, there are no captain-level Zanpakuto. The strongest one is Fujikoju."
Yoruichi Shihōin breathed a sigh of relief and prepared to leave.
It was just four Zanpakuto in their initial release state; she could take care of them in no time.
760 Just then.
The peacock-like man spoke:
"Bloom, you peacock of the azure hue!"
In an instant, a beautiful, glassy light burst forth, and strands of glassy vines streaked across the twilight sky like shooting stars.
Those slender, glass-like vines spread wildly in all directions.
The azure-colored vines seemed to have the ability to capture spiritual energy, and the place they spread was precisely where Ye Yun and his companions were hiding.
Rukia Kuchiki looked at the extended, azure-colored vines in surprise and said, "Ye Yun, are you sure you're not mistaken? Ayasegawa Yumichika's Zanpakuto is Fujikokujaku."
He remembered Ayase Gawa Yumichika's Zanpakuto, which was just an ordinary physical Zanpakuto.
It was even once considered the weakest.
Ye Yun knew that Ayasegawa Yumichika was deliberately hiding his Shikai, but he couldn't explain it.
The glass-colored vines continued to spread.
Just as the group was about to leave, Ishida Uryu's annoyed voice rang out:
"What the hell are these vines? They actually absorb my spiritual energy! It's disgusting, and they're incredibly tough!"
He waved his right hand forcefully.
It was clearly entwined by a glass-colored vine.
His spiritual power was being constantly devoured by the vines, and he could barely hold onto the spiritual bow in his right hand.
As a result, flower buds appeared on the vines, and with the continuous absorption of spiritual energy, they even showed signs of blooming.
Yoruichi Shihouin took a light step and easily plucked a flower bud from the vine. Looking at the azure-colored bud in surprise, she said:
"The absorbed spiritual power is all stored in the flower bud. It looks like a support type, but its attack power is indeed not weak."
As he spoke, he gently licked the core of the flower bud, and the sap was absorbed like sweet dew.
Kisuke Urahara drew Benihime and with a single stroke severed the azure-colored vines wrapped around Uryu Ishida's wrist, saying with interest:
