Chapter 249 The Empire's Actions

Why did the Quincy lose all his power?

This is a very sudden thing.

Fortunately, Kurosaki Masaki gave birth and the "hollow" power was passed on to Ichigo. Otherwise,

While losing the power of one's own "Qucy" as a check and balance, the power of "Hollow" and "Reaper" will have a violent and contradictory conflict, which the weak and frail bodies of ordinary humans are simply unable to bear.

Ishida Ryuuxian reached out and took out a cigarette and lighter from his pocket.

There was a loud and clear "clang" sound, and the cigarette butt burned into a brown-red color after being flicked on and off in the firelight for a few times.

He took a deep breath and blew out a long smoke ring: "You are the God of Death, why are you so concerned about the Quincy's affairs?"

His eyes are deep and his expression is complex.

"It doesn't make any difference, does it?"

Naruto shook his head and smiled slightly: "It's not something that can be seen with the naked eye that is called influence."

"The Quincy"

"They are part of this world, and the factors that cause them to die may also threaten other things in this world."

"The duty of the God of Death is to protect the Three Realms."

Ishida Ryugen didn't answer, and puffed on the cigarette vigorously. After a while, brown-red hot spots burned into the sponge filter, and then he shook his head: "You are really doing your duty, are you ready to take over the position of captain?" ?”

Naruto just stared at him.

"I know what the reason is." Ishida Ryuxian casually dropped the cigarette butt and stamped it out, "But I can't tell you."

Kagura's inner eyes reflected back that these two sentences were true.

"Can't you tell me?" Naruto narrowed his eyes.

Thinking of the issue Ishida Ryugen is most concerned about

He paused for a moment: "Do you think I'm not strong enough?"

Ishida Ryugen took out another cigarette and said in a calm tone: "I heard Uryū say that the Soul Society has experienced some serious things."

"I'm not sure if you didn't have time or if you didn't notice."

"It seems now."

"Obviously the latter."

Naruto narrowed his eyes even more.

This is really shocking news.

With the perception of Kagura's inner eye, he could clearly tell that every word he said was the truth. This person, whose strength was far inferior to his own, and who only had "captain level" spiritual pressure, was really sure that something was going on, but he failed to discover it.

But with my own senses

Is there anything else that cannot be discovered by myself?

Of course, it's not absolute.

Such things do exist, such as those weird clones of Uchiha Madara.

Ishida Ryuxian stretched out his hand lazily, the cigarette butt burned out in a half-circle arc, and the green smoke dispersed: "Since you haven't found it yet, of course I can't say anything."

He threw it away casually, and the half-remaining cigarette butt that he hadn't finished smoking fell to the ground and was stamped out.

He stretched out his hand, reopened the door, and pointed outside: "So."

"Please."

Naruto didn't stand up and was still sitting on the chair: "Is that all I can say?"

Ishida Ryuuxian said nothing and turned his head aside.

The room fell silent.

It wasn't until more than an hour later that Ishida Ryusei became impatient and was willing to turn his head back: "Captain Uzumaki, I say you can do it."

I couldn't finish my words.

The chair was empty, and the blond figure had disappeared without knowing when.

Soul Society.

Naruto stood on the high tower of Seireitei, overlooking the streets.

"Aren't you going to ask any more questions?" Nine Lamas jumped off Naruto's shoulders and looked up at him, "If you continue to ask questions, he might answer something."

Naruto shook his head.

"Then what are we going to do when we return to the Seireitei?" The Nine Lama tilted his head, without pressing, and raised another point that made him very confused: "The Quincy will not come to Soul Society."

Quincy and Death are mortal enemies.

They also knew a little bit about that past history.

once

Quincy prospered in this world, but because of their lack of restraint and lack of restraint, the God of Death launched an encirclement and suppression campaign. In the end, only a few lines remained that did not pose a threat.

"Really?" Naruto asked calmly and indifferently.

The Nine Lamas were stunned for a moment, confused, and then let out a bark.

Can you be there?

No way.

"Ryusen Ishida, he said he wasn't sure if I would find out." Naruto frowned, said softly, and continued to analyze, "Why do you say that?"

"Just like if I am capable enough, I will definitely find it."

Nine Lamas tilted their heads.

"I don't often go to the real world." Naruto continued, "If it's something in the real world, I was a little careless and didn't notice it. That's not normal."

"Just like... I've been to Karakura Town so many times, but haven't I found Muramasa?"

"He also said that Soul Society is in chaos and he doesn't know if we have time."

Clues were picked out one by one, like a cocoon being peeled off.

Jiulama suddenly realized something: "Is this so? So Naruto, you would suspect that the culprit that caused the Quincy to lose his power is in the Seireitei?"

Naruto nodded.

"I thought that guy was really secretive and didn't say anything." Nine Lamas took a long breath, "I didn't expect that he still hinted."

"If I had known this, why would I be so secretive? It's really troublesome."

Naruto looked into the distance.

Team 7 was patrolling, and caught several members of Team 11 who violated the rules and used knives, and was scolding them severely. Team 7 was the only team that could make Team 11 unable to stand up. The captain was a person who was almost as powerful as the captain-in-chief. Although the vice-captain was a fox, he could fight back and forth with his own captain.

Team 2 shuttled back and forth, and the black shadows flickered.

Team 4 hurried, and walked quickly in small steps.

The Soul Society was busy and full of vitality.

"He is not worried that we know that existence." Naruto said softly, his tone was calm, "He is worried that something in his hand will be discovered and known by others."

Kurama looked up, his big eyes were full of small doubts.

Not afraid of knowing that existence?

Is it something else?

"The way to know that existence is not only through Ishida Ryugen." Naruto lowered his head and smiled slightly, "But the thing in his hand, I am afraid only he knows."

Kurama subconsciously asked: "Who else?"

"Who else." Naruto shook his head and answered with a rhetorical question.

The First Squadron Quarters.

Kurama stared at Yamamoto Genryusai and suddenly realized.

Right

Is there anyone in this world who knows more than an old man who has lived for thousands of years?

"Quincy?" Yamamoto Genryusai sat upright, as silent as a stone Buddha, "Why do you want to know this?"

"Most of the current Quincy have lost their power." Naruto replied, "And I suspect that the source of their power loss is hidden in the Soul Society."

Yamamoto Genryusai's eyes flashed: "Oh?"

"Is the source hidden in the Soul Society?"

"Have you found evidence?"

Naruto shook his head.

"Same as Aizen's situation?" The old man lowered his head and his tone became more serious.

Naruto seemed to be thinking: "Not quite the same."

"Let the captain tell us about the battle with the Quincy first."

Yamamoto Genryusai put down his cane and said nostalgically: "The battle with the Quincy?"

"That was the greatest killing force I created since I formed the Gotei 13."

He seemed reluctant.

"Ignorance is not a sin. The existence of the Quincy certainly affects the balance of the three realms." The captain continued, "But what they did, their cognition and understanding, are all to protect souls and humans from the influence of the Hollows."

"It's just that they are stubborn, so I had to do it myself."

"The Quincy are a group of extremely talented guys who can manipulate spiritual power with human bodies. They are very powerful, but the Gotei 13 at that time were more powerful."

"We defeated them."

"We just didn't kill them all."

"The leader of them is a guy named 'Yhuhabach'. He has almost the same strength as me, but he was defeated by the Zanka no Tachi in the end."

"But I didn't kill him, I just deprived him of his power, consciousness and heartbeat."

Kurama muttered, "What's the difference between this and killing?"

Yamamoto Genryusai glanced at him.

The little fox shrank his head and threw out another question: "Why not kill him?"

The captain glanced at him again, still without speaking.

He refused to answer this question.

Kurama bared his teeth, arched his back and raised his hips, rubbing his hands, eager to pounce and tickle him.

"He is very strong, as strong as the captain-general." Naruto repeated what he had just said.

Yamamoto Genryusai raised his hand and tapped his knee: "So, you are doubting Yhwach?"

"It is probably difficult for him to have the ability to draw away the world's quincy."

"If he has."

"I think he will not give up using this ability when fighting me."

Naruto leaned over and shook his head: "If it is not him, but some other unknown existence, wouldn't it be more terrifying?"

Yamamoto Genryusai narrowed his eyes.

"How do you want to investigate?" he asked.

Naruto shook his head: "I have already started the investigation."

The 7th Division's barracks.

Third seat Hinamori Momo had a stern face and a serious tone.

The other officers and soldiers were a little nervous. This kind of atmosphere usually does not appear in the 7th Division alone. As the "Inner Court Guard", they are almost the last line of defense. The public opinion that makes them nervous will inevitably make other divisions nervous.

"This is the captain's order." Hinamori Momo clapped her hands, "Please work hard in the next few days."

"The captain is very dissatisfied with the incidents of Aizen and Muramasa."

"He hopes that you can check the big and small, various corners and easily overlooked places in the Soul Society during this period to see if there are any safety hazards."

Many young soldiers breathed a sigh of relief.

On the contrary, the officers' faces became solemn. It was not difficult for them to hear that these words were not as simple as they sounded.

"Each officer leads a team of three." Hinamori Tao continued, "Mark the locations that have been checked but are uncertain on the map. Each team will get a part of the map and search within the limited range of the map."

"If there are confirmed omissions, please do not take the initiative to attack. Mark them on the map and wait for the captain to arrange follow-up personnel."

She paused and said in a serious tone: "The captain asked me to tell you."

"Be careful in everything, and put your own safety first."

The last sentence made many senior officers feel a little creepy.

Although two things happened before, both of which caused the Seireitei to be breached, there is no doubt that it is still the safest place in the entire Soul Society.

in such a location.

In Seireitei

Everything is about your own safety?

Has it become unsafe in Seireitei?

"The captain should be worried." One of the officers comforted himself, "After all, those things happened."

"That's right, it's just patrolling the Seireitei. It's the task we were originally supposed to do." Another chief official spoke, nodding his head and seriously agreeing, "It's just that we have to be more meticulous than before. There's nothing to worry about."

Hinata Mori is small in stature, but she arranges things in an orderly manner.

The teams are divided one by one, and there will be almost no repeated positions.

They set off.

At this time, Rukongai.

Madarame Ikkaku and Ayasegawa Yumichika from the 11th Division stood in the middle of the dead village, turning their heads to look around.

"There are no traces of souls." Yumichika Ayasegawa frowned and said in a heavy tone, "They have all disappeared."

Madarame Ikkaku raised his hand and pointed in one direction: "Look, the footprints."

On the ground, there were messy and mottled marks, a mess.

"I saw it." Yumichika Ayasekawa shook his head, "These souls seemed to be driven together, and then disappeared due to some external force."

Madarame clicked his tongue: "This gives me a very bad feeling."

Yumichika Ayasechuan looked at him but said nothing.

But the name "Aizen Sosuke" popped up in their hearts at the same time.

The last "soul disappearing" incident was related to this person.

Now, he is imprisoned.

But who knows, the next enemy will be as powerful as "Aizen".

One wave has not subsided, and another wave has arisen.

In recent years, there have been too many troubles in Seireitei.

Division 12, Video Hall, Hueco Mundo Supervision Section.

"Oops! Something happened in Hueco Mundo." A researcher stood up and said in a serious tone, "A large number of Hollows are disappearing."

"One hundred and seventy-two Hollows have been annihilated in the 6603-8983 area."

He is just the beginning.

One after another, other personnel also began to report.

Different areas, different quantities.

The angle between Soul Society and the real world is shifting.

The balance is being upset.

Nie Yuli's face was solemn, he clenched his fists and gritted his teeth: "I'm afraid the only ones who can destroy Xu are those guys."

"But how dare they."

"How did you do it?"

There is a big difference between "eliminating" rather than "disappearing".

After the death of the void, even if it is swallowed by the great void, the spirit son it represents will not disappear. It will just become a part of the great void and move from one place to another without any reduction in quality.

But what Team 12 is monitoring now is the "annihilation of the void". That part of the spirit son has also been destroyed, and the part it represents has reduced in mass.

Hueco Mundo loses weight, but the weight of Soul Society remains unchanged. The balance gradually tilts to one end, and the world will lose control.

"I'll inform you." Niryuori stretched out his hand and formed a seal, preparing to dismiss his shadow clone and tell Uzumaki Naruto and Captain Yamamoto about this.

He hasn't finished speaking yet.

One of the team members stood up suddenly: "The balance is being restored."

"The impact of the virtual annihilation is disappearing"

Nirvana was stunned.

Balance will not be restored somehow.

He glanced at the screen. On the map representing the "Hue Circle", red dots flashed, and it was obvious that the virtual world was still disappearing.

"Hueco Mundo" is still losing weight.

But now the balance has happened, which means

Soul Society is also losing weight.

The reduction in Hueco Mundo's mass means the destruction of the Hollow, so the reduction in the mass of Soul Society can only mean the destruction of the soul.

Still those guys?

No, I'm afraid it's unlikely. They shouldn't have the guts to invade Soul Society.

so.

Was it those guys who took action?

Nie Yuli raised his head and glanced at the ceiling. His eyes seemed to look through this concrete barrier to the distant sky.

He pulled off his hand and his tone became calmer: "Has the guy from Hueco Mundo been contacted?"

"Not yet, communication is blocked." The green catfish answered, his hands moving quickly, and he was still trying to figure out how to eliminate the inexplicable influence of the spiritual wave.

Hueco Mundo.

"It's really interesting." A man with parted hair, wearing a military uniform and a white Quincy cloak stood proudly in the sky, staring at several guys who were stepping on the sand and full of hostility towards him. .

"The God of Death is colluding with the Hollow."

Asido held the knife and spat viciously: "You can't speak better than me. I'm just stationed here to guard Hueco Mundo under the orders of the Seireitei."

"No"

"What complicity!"

He spoke fiercely, but he was very cautious in his heart. The enemy in front of him brought him a sense of oppression. Although it was not as oppressive as Uzumaki Naruto back then, it was no worse than that fox. This was an extremely powerful opponent.

But the power possessed by such a guy is not the God of Death, but the Quincy.

Can a Quincy also have such power?

"What's the difference?" The man standing in the sky said in a cold tone. He waved his hand and pulled out a long sword. A knot-shaped arc composed of spirit particles appeared on the blade. This was his weapon. "Whether it's the god of death or the hollow, they are all targets we want to eliminate."

"You are joining forces now. For us, isn't it just going along with the flow?"

Ashido raised the sword, chanted the word spirit, and performed the first release: "Who the hell are you?"

He smiled lightly.

He bowed politely and said, "I forgot to introduce myself."

"My name is, Kielge Oupi."

"Captain of the Invisible Empire, Hueco Mundo Hunting Force."

"I have been ordered to come to Hueco Mundo to conduct a mixed selection of Hollows and Arrancars."

"While I am talking, this is your last chance."

"If you want to live, you must surrender to us at all costs, then kneel down and lick my shoes like a slave."

"If."

"If you still want to resist, then I can only conduct the first screening and eliminate all of you disobedient guys."

As he spoke, he raised his hand, pushed his glasses, and a ferocious and smug smile appeared on his face.

"Let's start having fun."

"Little guys."
