Chapter 174 172 Escape Is Also a Kind of Trust

Chapter 174 172. Escape is also a kind of trust

Above the head is a black cavity that blocks out the sky and the sun, and the sun cannot shine into this mountain range. In the darkness, several Shinigami who participated in this assessment in the day and moon class huddled closely together.

"Hey, Ise Nanao, is this part of the assessment?"

Madarame Ikkaku put his Zanpakuto on his shoulder and looked at Ise Nanao and said.

"I don't know, but it's probably not the case. Captain Shuichi didn't tell me about this before."

Ise Nanao pushed up her glasses and tried to remain calm as she answered.

"So this is a big Hollow attack on Soul Society? It's just that we were unlucky and got hit."

Looking at some large voids of different shapes falling one after another from the black cavity, Yumichika Ayasegawa said while using the binding light to conceal everyone's whereabouts.

At the same time, he was secretly glad in his heart. Fortunately, the black cavity appeared relatively early. If they were separated at night, they would have to survive such a large-scale Daxu attack. A Shinigami who doesn't even have the strength to be a captain is undoubtedly a very rare thing.

"Nanao, are you sure this isn't part of Shuichi's assessment?"

Shiba Haiyan confirmed to Ise Nanao.

As a vice-captain, a Shinigami who often deals with worldly affairs and has experienced many incidents, Shiba Haiyan has shown a very mature attitude in handling matters.

After getting a positive answer from Ise Nanao, Shiba Haiyan immediately summoned the Hell Butterfly and sent a request for help message to the captain and Higashino Shuichi respectively.

Originally, hell butterflies were rare creatures and were usually only equipped by captains. However, due to Shiba Haiyan's status as the head of the Shiba family, he was able to own a hell butterfly as the deputy captain.

As a special creature that transcends the three realms and is not bound by most of Soul Society's rules, the Hell Butterfly easily flew out of this isolated space with Shiba Haiyan's information.

"I have sent a distress signal to Soul Society. As long as we persist here for a while, Soul Society will surely rescue us as soon as possible!"

After doing all this, Shiba Haiyan did not forget to comfort the other Shinigami present.

Because he knows that the more critical the moment, the more he cannot lose control of his position.

However, Tetsuzaemon, who was standing on the outermost edge of the shooting range, poured cold water on everyone.

"That's true, but I think it might be a bit difficult."

Of course, this was not what Tetsuzaemon did on purpose, but in this short period of time, they, the Shinigami, were surrounded by a group of Daxu that were dozens of stories high. In the middle of these Daxu, from the shadow, a special form of Daxu, about the same size as their god of death, with a special mask half hanging on his face, slowly walked out.

Everyone who was no longer stunned immediately recognized the identity of this great void, the Arrancar.

Even after the battle seven years ago, the Soul Society has lowered its previous evaluation of these Arrancars and lowered their strength level from the lowest captain level in the past to at least the deputy captain level, but That doesn't mean these Arrancars are easy to deal with either.

In particular, the Arrancar in front of him, who had his whole body covered in a white robe, had already reached the captain level just from the spiritual pressure released from his body.

And this is a situation that no one among all the Shinigami present has reached.

Even for Shinigami, a common common sense is that because Hollows and Shinigami are different, they have different levels of spiritual pressure development. Compared to Hollows, Shinigami are better at using lower spiritual pressure to exert stronger power. Therefore, when a Shinigami faces a Hollow, he can actually fight across levels of reiatsu easily.

But for the current group of shinigami from Higashino Shuichi's Hiruzuki class, most of them have no experience in dealing with a captain-level spiritual pressure arrancar, so it is impossible to say there is no pressure.

In particular, around them, there was not only this Arrancar, but also the beast-shaped Daxu that surrounded them, staring at them with eager eyes.

"Hey, delicious gods of death, you still have about ten minutes to say your last words. If there is anything you want to leave behind, I allow you to say it now!"

As soon as this Arrancar appeared in front of Shiba Haiyan and the others, he directly announced the fate of these Shinigami. For him, this outcome was beyond doubt.

After all, no matter how you look at it, this battle should be a one-sided situation. He has the advantage, and he doesn't know how he can lose!

"Don't be too confident too early. I've heard this kind of thing countless times, but you know, there is only one end for those falsehoods."

As the most experienced Shinigami among the Shinigami present, and also the most experienced in handling such incidents, Shiba Haiyan took on the role of leader of this group of Shinigami, but he saw that he was exchanging words with this Arrancar at the same time. , the Zanpakutō in his hand has simultaneously completed the liberation of the Zanpakutō.

This is one of the most useful tricks Shiba Haiyan learned from Higashino Shuichi, silent chanting.

Originally, as the head of the Shiba family and the most talented Shinigami in the Soul Society in the past few hundred years, Shiba Kaien could have had the strength of a captain at this point in time, and even mastered the release of Zanpakuto, if it were not for the fact that the captain of the 13th Division, Ukitake Jushiro, was physically weak and not suitable for managing the affairs of the team, causing Shiba Kaien to have to devote a lot of energy to the management of the affairs of the 13th Division.

Therefore, Shiba Kaien actually did not need to join Higashino Hideichi's Day and Moon Class to help Shinigami improve further.

However, for personal reasons, Shiba Kaien admired Higashino Hideichi's fighting style very much, especially Higashino Hideichi's ability to grow step by step to the current level that can almost be said to be the best in the entire Soul Society even though Higashino Hideichi's talent was far inferior to his.

Shiba Kaien believed that there must be a lot of things worth learning from Higashino Hideichi.

So Shiba Kaien gladly accepted Higashino Hideichi's invitation.

The fact is that although Higashino Hideichi's fundamental improvement in strength is not as obvious as other Shinigami, he is far inferior to Higashino Hideichi in terms of fighting skills.

In the battle with the enemy, don't talk nonsense if you can. Even if you want to respond to provocation, you must not waste the opportunity.

Words can be a tool for communication or a means of attracting attention.

Therefore, just when the hollow wanted to see what kind of last words Shiba Kaiyan would say, the ground under his feet had turned into a pool of water.

Shiba Kaiyan raised the sea trident in his hand forward,

"Water Sky Tornado!"

In Shiba Kaiyan's shout, the water under the hollow's feet spiraled upward like a tornado, until it connected the sky and the ground, connecting the sky and the earth like a pillar.

"Great!"

As the battlefield atmosphere group, Kotetsu Yuin, who was self-aware, cheered at this moment.

She knew that her fighting ability was far inferior to that of her other companions. As a typical representative of partiality that Higashino Hideichi often criticized, Higashino Hideichi had arranged a special track for her in this assessment, so she chose not to speak very quietly in the previous discussions.

In a battle, there is a need for people who stand in front to shelter teammates from the wind and rain, and there is also a need for people who stand in the back to provide logistical support to teammates.

Hu Che Yong Yin, who was deeply influenced by Higashino Hideichi's philosophy, found her core position early.

However, her cheers were obviously too early.

To describe it in another world, Hu Che Yong Yin's behavior is a typical half-time champagne. Once things go back and forth, they will be nailed to the pillar of shame.

In the water tornado, the arrogant laughter of the Arrancar sounded.

Then Hu Che Yong Yin saw a purple tentacle covered with unknown liquid extending from the water tornado, and then a circle of spirit particles like rosary beads appeared on the tentacle and rotated until they sank into the water tornado.

In the blink of an eye, the water tornado that penetrated the sky and earth collapsed like a building collapsing.

"It's useless~ Shiba Kaiyan, this ability of yours has been in my material library for a long time~"

The water tornado faded, revealing the body of the Arrancar that was originally wrapped in a white robe.

His body can only be said to be a human figure, but the limbs are not the hands and feet in the normal concept, but the existence of tentacles, ugly and disgusting.

And the head is not a normal part, but a huge cylindrical glass water tank filled with unknown transparent liquid.

And swimming in the middle of this unknown transparent liquid are two small naked heads.

And on the left and right sides of these two heads, one is printed with the number 1 and the other is printed with the number 0.

Shiba Kaiyan is not unfamiliar with this kind of number.

After the battle seven years ago, the captains of the Soul Society have long figured out the current ecological composition of the Hueco Mundo with the efforts of the captains.

As early as the reign of Bylergan, the joint governance model of the Ten Espadas headed by Bylergan was formed.

Even after Bylergan was killed by Higashino Hideichi in Soul Society and Hueco Mundo entered the post-Bylergan era, this governance model of the Ten Espadas in Hueco Mundo was still preserved, because Koyate Stark, who had attacked Soul Society with Bylergan and later led a group of Arrancars to attract firepower for Bylergan in the real world, was still alive.

According to the current speculation of Soul Society, after Bylergan's death, the position of the current Lord of Hueco Mundo should have been inherited by Stark.

Naturally, the Ten Espadas system was also inherited.

In other words, the Arrancar that appeared in front of them was not an ordinary Arrancar at all, but the Tenth Espada of Hueco Mundo today!

And this also means that in the Hueco Mundo that follows the primitive law of the weak and the strong, the strength of this Arrancar ranks tenth!

This is simply not something that their group of Death Gods, whose highest strength is only at the vice-captain level, can deal with!

"Nanao, take Yuune, Yumichika and the others and run away from here, the farther the better."

Realizing this, Shiba Kaiyan did not hesitate at all, and took out the tone of the head of the Shiba family and issued an order to Ise Nanao.

"What are you talking about? Isn't it just a stinking Arrancar and a group of Hollows? I'm not afraid of them at all!"

But when he heard Shiba Kaiyan's order to let them be deserters, Madarame Ikkaku immediately expressed his dissatisfaction.

What a joke? When has he ever been afraid of anyone?

Even in front of Higashino Hideichi, he has never been a coward, okay?

When the fight starts later, if he, Madarame Ikkaku, screams in pain, he will be considered a coward!

Fortunately, Madarame Ikkaku has a close friend who is inseparable and has a clear mind, Ayase Gawa Yumichika.

As an ordinary Shinigami officer, he has never been to Hueco Mundo before. Although he doesn't know what the number ten means, nor what the Ten Blades of Hueco Mundo represent, he can read expressions.

The unusually heavy expression on Shiba Kaiyan's face can only mean one thing.

"Vice Captain Haiyan, we will definitely meet again outside."

Even though he knew that his words were like setting a flag, Ayase Gawa Yumichika still looked at Shiba Haiyan's back and said so.

Never waste the opportunities created by your teammates. Kindness on the battlefield is cruelty to yourself.

This is also the knowledge that Higashino Hideichi taught them in the class.

As an outstanding student of the class, Ayase Gawa Yumichika deeply agreed with it.

So he directly pulled the one beside him, Madarame Ikkaku, who wanted to rush up to help Shiba Haiyan, and broke through in another direction.

There were only some big hollows that looked very intimidating. If these shinigami worked together, it should not be difficult to break through.

After seeing Ayase Gawa Yumichika and Madarame Ikkaku responding immediately, Sheju Tetsuzaemon, who stood on the other side and blocked a hollow flash shot by the surrounding big hollows for everyone, also looked deeply at Shiba Haiyan, as if he wanted to carve the figure of Shiba Haiyan into his heart.

At this moment, he seemed to know the real reason for his mother's death.

It's a pity that this time, Shiba Kaiyan stole the limelight.

If there is a next time, Sheba Tetsuzaemon hopes that the person who said this can be himself, then the morality he insists on will undoubtedly be sublimated to the end!

Next, it was Ise Nanao, and she was holding Kotetsu Yuune.

Everyone knew what Shiba Kaiyan would face if he stayed, but as they had received knowledge education from Higashino Hideichi, they all made the most correct choice.

Because reality is not a novel, and running away is not a symbol of lack of courage.

Meaningless sacrifice is shameful.

Since Shiba Kaiyan's judgment is that they can't deal with the strange-looking Arrancar even if they join forces, then they still stay here and waste Shiba Kaiyan's efforts, which is the greatest disrespect for Shiba Kaiyan's efforts.

For the several death gods present, isn't this another form of mutual trust?

Perhaps they themselves did not know that a chain called bond had quietly connected them together at this moment.
