Chapter 367: Combat Compatibility

Chapter 367: Combat Compatibility

Kenpachi Zaraki's ability to expand the range of his Bankai was obtained from the Soul Singer. Once the caster, the Soul Singer, dies, this power will naturally be dissipated.

Without this power, Kenpachi Zaraki was beaten back to his original form. Although he could only manipulate a small area, it made him more precise and allowed him to reverse the decline in the battle with Aizen.

But without this power, he would not be able to annihilate all the Hollows.

So when he had a bad premonition and Aizen was intentionally pushing the battlefield in this direction, he also cooperated with Aizen and wanted to see what was going on. If possible, he could help the Soul Singer.

In the end, he was still a step too late. Just a few seconds ago, the soul singer had died and the power in him was removed.

Even though he knew that killing Lu Li at this moment would be useless, he still instinctively took action when he reached this point.

"I can't let you take advantage of this opportunity."

Aizen's huge spiritual pressure burst out, and with one sword he shattered the sea of ​​sand controlled by Kenpachi Zaraki and stood in front of the weak Lu Li.

"Hey, Mr. Lu, you won in a very embarrassing way."

Aizen still had the mood to tease Lu Li, and it seemed that he was still in good condition.

“Is this the result of holding back?”

Lu Li glanced at Kenpachi Zaraki, who had no obvious injuries, and said after standing up straight.

"Although I would like to say that I let him off on purpose, he is indeed difficult to deal with. My spiritual pressure can suppress him, but when hypnosis is completely ineffective, it is a bit difficult to break through his defense."

Aizen said in a calm tone and did not help Lu Li because he still remembered Lu Li's previous request to him.

"Battles really do depend on compatibility."

Lu Li sighed, "If we had switched opponents, it would have ended a long time ago."

"Young people nowadays are so arrogant. Aizen is like this, and so are you, Lu Li."

Kenpachi Zaraki looked stern, "Do you really think you have won?"

In his opinion, Lu Li was already in a state of lingering death. Although Aizen's spiritual pressure was very high, the energy consumed in the battle so far would not be small.

But because of the special nature of his Zanpakutō Bankai, he can continue to fight a protracted war. It is only a matter of time before he kills Lu Li first and then kills Aizen.

After clearing the obstacles, although he would not be able to destroy all the Hollows, he would still be able to go to the Kyon Palace and kill a few Vastodes.

"Arrogant?"

Lu Li sneered, "You are the one who wants to destroy Hueco Mundo by yourself. Aren't you arrogant? Don't you know the significance of the Hollows to the Three Realms? If all the Hollows are killed, the Three Realms will collapse."

He took a step forward as he spoke, and Sosuke took a step back in tacit understanding.

"In my opinion, you are just a child who has not grown up. You are immersed in the sadness of the past. You dare not face your real enemy, but impose your grief and anger on all the virtual beings."

As Lu Li stepped forward he continued, "How ridiculous and pathetic."

"Boy, what do you know!?"

Kenpachi Zaraki was obviously enraged, his voice became a few notches higher, and in his rage, he manipulated the matter between heaven and earth to attack Lu Li.

Lu Li held a huge demon prisoner in his hand and swung it, releasing a burst of sword intent that rolled back the sea of ​​sand and clouds. At the same time, real damage was transmitted through Kenpachi Zaraki's fused spirit particles.

Lu Li didn't have much strength left, and Sosuke respected his will, but he understood tacitly that the other party would only give him one chance to make a move.

So he was too lazy to continue talking nonsense with that madman Kenpachi Zaraki, and the moment he activated his flash step, purple mist rose.

There are indeed similarities in combat in this world. It was difficult for him to fight the Soul Singer, but if it was Sosuke, he could easily defeat him.

On the other hand, if he is in his Bankai state and faces Kenpachi Zaraki...it will be a one-sided massacre.

puff-

The long sword passed by in all directions, and Lu Li's figure appeared in front of Kenpachi Zaraki. Before he could draw his sword on his real body, Kenpachi Zaraki's body was already riddled with holes and blood was flowing like a river.

Yu Lu Tuo Liu's ability is abnormal, but it has fatal flaws for people with his ability.

After Kenpachi Zaraki uses spirit particles to fuse matter, if the fused matter is destroyed, he himself will also suffer backlash damage.

Now that Lu Li's sword intent is transmitted and his Bankai's Demon-Imprisoning Technique can cut through the matter controlled by Kenpachi Zaraki, all of Lu Li's attack effects can be triggered.

The Soul Eater's true damage, the Demon Prisoner's healing ban and soul absorption, and so on.

With just one charge, Lu Li reached Kenpachi Zaraki and caused serious injuries to this opponent whose physical attributes were not high due to maintaining Bankai for a long time.

Under Kenpachi Zaraki's puzzled gaze, Lu Li raised the huge Demon Prisoner in his hand, held it with both hands, and used up the last of his strength to chop it down vertically.

Under the gray moon, the blood fountain ripples, with a somewhat sad beauty.

Kenpachi Zaraki's vitals were cut, all his abilities were lost, and he fell to the ground powerlessly, his life coming to an end.

In a trance, he saw Yu Lu Tuo Liu Chao leaning over and sitting beside him. He stretched out his hand, wanting to touch her, "If only I could be a little nicer to you... that would be great."

After Lu Li watched Kenpachi Zaraki breathe his last and confirmed that the mission was completed, he felt a little sad. Why do people always let go of things only when they are on the verge of death?
After the battle, after Lu Li released his Zanpakutō's Bankai, he relaxed, and as if in a chain reaction, his whole body began to collapse like a dangerous building. His eyes went dark and he fell straight to the ground.

"Mr. Lu..."

"Leave."

"Mr. Lu."

The last thing he heard before he lost consciousness was the voices of Sosuke and Nel and Kouga who came to support him.

…………

In Soul Society, the battle has also entered its final stages.

"Flowing blade like fire!"

Captain-General Yamamoto's rage was so intense that it almost burned to the sky. The raging flames crisscrossed the long street and burned a group of Quincy remnants to ashes.

The reason why he was so angry was not only because the Quincies had the audacity to attack Soul Society, but also because they caused serious damage to the Gotei 13.

Moreover, as the captain of the Gotei 13, he lost his composure in this battle. Not only did he fall into the enemy's trap right from the start, but he was also sealed in an illusory world.

Even after he cracked the ability of the fairy tale dragon, he was still unable to capture the little girl who might be from the Xishao Bureau.

The little girl called Blood Rain used a strange magic before the fairy tale dragon's sealing power reached its limit. She teleported away and disappeared, disappearing so abruptly from under the eyes of everyone on the battlefield.

After escaping, Captain-General Yamamoto's spiritual pressure exploded, instantly frightening the Quincies.

The subsequent battle was a one-sided massacre on the Shinigami side, because the old generation of Quincy masters were first killed by Lu Li, and then by Unohana and Captain Kyoraku. When he escaped, Adolf had already been defeated by Kyoraku Shunsui, and the Quincy side no longer had any strong masters to show off.

In this situation, if he attacked fiercely again, he would directly crush the morale of the Quincy.

The explorers in the Gotei 13 were all acting bravely. Beating a fallen dog was their favorite thing to do. Now they were hunting down the remaining Quincies as if they were trying to grab the credit and get the war points.

Mandala, standing on a tall building, looked at the chaos on the street and said coldly, "What a mob."

Although the result of this battle was that the Death God camp where the End Space was located won, there was nothing to be proud of, because the Death God already had a huge advantage.

But before, when the captain was sealed, the explorers of the End Space did not have any good records. In terms of combat effectiveness and psychological quality, they were obviously weaker than the explorers of the Heavenly Dao Space.

In fact, although the Death God's side won this battle, the war points obtained by the explorers of the End Space may not be more than those of the explorers of the Heavenly Dao Space.

In particular, the explorers of the Tiandao Space received advance instructions from the Soul Singer, and evacuated a considerable number of them in an orderly manner when the battle situation was not right, so not many of their explorers actually died.

Various manifestations in this battle made Mandragora believe what the older sisters in the group said, that is, the explorers of the lower level of the End Space have been getting worse year by year in recent years.

If this continues, we will most likely suffer losses in the subsequent world wars.

From the perspective of an arbitrator, she certainly hopes to gain more benefits when participating in the world battle, at least she cannot lose, otherwise she will be punished.

All I can say is that the future is worrying. Only the performance of Prisoner Demon is relatively outstanding among the new strong ones.

Thinking of this, Mandala looked up at the sky and said to himself: "I don't know whether he is dead or alive..."

In her opinion, Lu Li's strength was top-notch, but he was probably not as high-level as the Soul Singer, so he suffered a great disadvantage in terms of attributes. Even with the help of Xu, the result was hard to say.

Moreover, she didn't think that since the Soul Singer dared to take the initiative to join the game, he would have some means to limit the combat power of Hueco Mundo.

"That guy is tough."

Ye Yi landed next to Mandala. She had just finished cleaning up a battlefield and heard Mandala talking to herself when she passed by here.

"Aizen is a bit dangerous though. If he gets dragged into a battle like this, he's probably in big trouble."

Yoruichi sighed. She and Aizen didn't have much of a relationship, but they were old classmates after all. The other party was also the current vice-captain of the Gotei, and if he worked hard in the future, he might even be able to become the captain.

As a result, such a talent was involved in a battle between these super powerful people. From her point of view, he would most likely not survive.

"Vice-Captain Aizen... I think he can survive, too."

At this time, Urahara Kisuke came over and looked strange after hearing what Yoruichi said.

Although he had never seen Aizen display his true strength, he instinctively felt that this man was too dangerous and that his true strength was probably even greater than Lu Li's.

How could a man who could control Hueco Mundo die?
On the contrary, he suspected that luring the Quincy into the Hueco Mundo was part of Aizen's plan.

One thing he found strange now was that if the Quincy leader's entry into the Hueco Mundo for the final battle with Aizen and Lu Li was Aizen's plan and was also the Quincy's flattery, then what about Captain Zaraki?

Was it really just a coincidence that he followed her to Hueco Mundo?

"I hope so. Otherwise, Lu Li will probably cry. He seems to have had a good relationship with Aizen since their school days."

Ye Yi complained, and seeing that a small-scale battle broke out in the distance, he stopped chatting and set off to provide support.

…………

On the other side, in the real world, Karakura Town.

In an old mansion, Ishida Sogen sat in the courtyard with a restless mood, staring at the sky in a daze.

"Adolf, have you failed..."

He sighed softly.

What all the Quincies didn't know was that he didn't betray the traditional Quincies, nor did he tip off the Shinigami after he left.

According to the agreement between him and Adolf, he left the main force with humiliation and hid in a place called Karakura Town in the present world with his few tribesmen.

Although he is called a member of the clan, the Quincy that follows him are actually just servants of the Ishida family. The Ishida family is one of the oldest and most traditional Quincy families, but now only he, the clan leader, is the real "Ishida".

Adolf jokingly called him a family of one person, and said that the Ishida family was indeed in decline. Their family lost too much in the war eight hundred years ago, and has never recovered since then, and its population has become sparse.

By the time it was passed down to his generation, he, Ishida Sogen, was the only one left.

He was much younger than Adolf, but they had a good personal relationship. Adolf found him the night before deciding to go to war and made a request to him.

Yes, Adolf hoped that he would be a deserter this time.

"My old friend, I really want to die with you in Soul Society..."

There was mist in Ishida Sogen's eyes. He had already learned the news of the Quincy's defeat. Adolf used the Soul Scattering Gloves to face the strongest captains of the Gotei alone, and died in battle due to exhaustion.

He didn't want to be a deserter at all, but Adolf joked that he was the only child of the Ishida family, and he had mastered the traditional Quincy techniques the best, and was the best at teaching students among them.

People like him should not die in wars, but should serve as a spark, leaving hope to future generations.

Now that I think about it, Adolf probably had anticipated this war a long time ago, and that the Quincy would most likely not win, so he wanted to leave a way out for the traditional Quincy bloodline.

The Ishida family is that fallback.

"Zong Xian, we must live. If we lose the battle, we must live even if we have to succumb to death."

"Please forgive me for entrusting you with this humiliating task, but you are the most talented Quincy among us."

"Escape, taking our hopes with us."

"Don't look like that. It's not like we're going to lose. When I win this battle, I'll invite you to drink in Seireitei."

"But if I lose, you will have to live in hiding in this world. I bought a mansion in Karakura Town. It's a nice place with many talented people."

"Sogen, get married and have children. It doesn't matter if you take some time. You have to pass on the Quincy's bloodline."

"..."

Ishida Sogen recalled what Adolf said to him before he left, and tears filled his eyes.

He was determined that no matter how much humiliation he had to endure, he would pass on the Quincy bloodline and use his skills to teach a new generation of traditional Quincy.

For this reason, he will later surrender to the side of the God of Death.
