Chapter 392: The First Gotei Captains
Chapter 392: The First Gotei Captains
At this time, as Gu Qiusha expected, because his own strength did not seem strong, the captain would not take him seriously, but would solve the practical problem first.
As the person with the strongest spiritual pressure present, the captain-general must first limit the further expansion of the Hell's Gate. Every time the Hell's Gate expands, the Three Realms are one step closer to collapse, and the captain-general has no time to deal with him.
The evil spirits pouring out of hell are also quite troublesome for the captain. In fact, with the current strength of the Gotei 13, when several strong men are responsible for suppressing the gate of hell, they are most likely unable to stop the offensive of the evil spirits.
Even though Lu Li rushed towards him like a tiger among a flock of sheep, an ordinary captain could not charge so coolly into a group of evil spirits.
For example, the captain of the 9th Division, Kensei Rokuguruma, was in a tough battle with a hell demon that used to be Achukas, and he was unable to suppress it even after using his Bankai.
"Cheerful! Is there anyone stronger than you!?"
Kenpachi Zaraki fought among the group of evil spirits and was barely able to defeat them. Although these evil spirits were all strong, Kenpachi Zaraki became even more brave after improving his killing skills.
Because Geng Mu helped Lu Li share the pressure, Lu Li's advance was quite smooth. In less than half a minute, he reached the mountaintop shrine and came in front of Gu Qiusha.
Seeing this, Gu Qiusha smiled and said, "Nice to meet you. Goodbye."
As he spoke, a ray of light lit up under his feet. It was obvious that the teleportation scroll that had been set up long ago was activated. It was a product of space and was much more stable than some of the ways of traveling in this world.
The current situation is so chaotic, and his goal of restraining the high-level combat power of the God of Death has been achieved. He will not fight with Lu Li here.
Because no one can guarantee that Captain Yamamoto will not be distracted and suddenly come over to chop him with a knife, the safest way is to drag all the Death Gods here and run away to other places first.
This time his positioning transmission will not be very far. After being locked by Lu Li's hunter radar, he will continue to be locked as long as he does not leave the range of 500 kilometers.
Based on his observation of people like Lu Li, he knew that the other party would never give up chasing him. In addition, given the captain's order just now, as the captain of the 11th Division, Lu Li would definitely chase him to the end.
Once they got to the other side, it was time for him to perform.
A faint green light flashed, and Gu Qiusha's figure disappeared from the spot, leaving Lu Li empty-handed.
At the same time, a roar and the wailing of evil spirits came from the other side of the Gate of Hell.
This violent movement attracted the attention of everyone on the battlefield.
I saw a large number of evil spirits fleeing in terror, as if they had encountered the most terrifying existence.
An evil ghost who had just escaped from hell was pierced by a weapon like a Qinglong sword. As the user of the weapon exerted force, the whole thing was shattered into pieces of flesh.
The other evil spirits also failed to survive and were killed by Zanpakuto-like weapons.
What shocked people was that this wave of beings rushing out of hell were not the hollow-transformed evil spirits they had just seen in the battle, but humans.
Although these people are human, their temperaments are even more ferocious, scaring the evil spirits so much that they flee everywhere. It is obvious that they are notorious in hell.
These people stood in the center of the towering Hell's Gate, and like a single man blocking the evil spirits that dared to approach the Hell's Gate. For a moment, the output of evil spirits from the Hell's Gate stopped.
They stood together as if they had discussed it beforehand, posing in a way that would make explorers exclaim "so fashionable".
One of the men, with white hair and dark skin, looked distracted. He raised his hand and greeted the captain who was maintaining the barrier to suppress the gate of hell. "Hey, captain, long time no see."
The Grim Reapers present were all stunned. They did not expect such a sudden change to happen. Did they actually have reinforcements from hell?
Although these people also have the characteristics of hell demons, the weapons they use look very much like Zanpakutō.
“I really saw some familiar faces.”
Unohana, who was treating Muguruma Kensei, looked up at these people with a smile on her face, "If this is where I will end up, it wouldn't be bad."
"Are these people the captains of the first Gotei 13?!"
someone exclaimed.
When Captain Yamamoto saw these people, he also showed a nostalgic expression on his face, "Shihouin Chihiro, Yanyuan Jinle, Shijima Chigiri, Obana Danjiro, Saito Furobushi, Xingno Taketsuna, Kadori Takeunsai, Kumen Jingyantetsu, Otsu-kawa Amaeki, Zenjoji Arihime, Nigumo Saizo..."
He read out the names of these deceased people one by one, "I didn't expect that I would have to trouble you again after you fell into hell."
"What can I say? It is our honor to fight alongside the captain again."
Saito Furusei is a girl with purple hair and twin ponytails, wearing a black eye mask and full of madness. She glanced at the evil spirits and said, "Besides, hell is a really great place!"
Obviously, the captains of the first generation of the Thirteen Court Guard Squadrons were not righteous people. They killed people in the name of protecting the court. Even if they were not unable to reincarnate normally because of their high spiritual pressure, they would still fall into hell.
But these people did not realize the pain after falling into hell. People like Saito Fulaubushi, on the contrary, felt that endless killing was extremely exciting.
Gu Qiusha must not have expected that such a change would happen after he opened the Gate of Hell, because the powerful captains of the first generation of the Gotei 13 appeared, causing the leakage of evil spirits from the Gate of Hell to almost stop.
According to his original plan, even if the Gate of Hell could be contained by the captain-general, the Gotei 13 would be in a state of chaos for a long time.
However, the captains of the first generation of the Gotei 13 arrived so quickly and were the first to block the exit on the other side of hell. The large number of hunting evil spirits directly relieved the pressure on the Gotei 13 to guard the world.
"We haven't been together for a long time, so let's start killing."
The executor, Taketsuna, holding his Zanpakutō, turned around first and charged towards hell.
The other first-generation captains had no intention of greeting the captain-general and Unohana. In their opinion, they would meet in hell sooner or later anyway, so there was no need to rush.
The first generation captains were all ruthless men, and they were all extremely powerful in hell. The weak evil spirits didn't dare to approach the gate of hell, and the courageous evil spirits were also killed in large numbers.
Even though you can be resurrected after death in hell, no one wants to easily experience the pain of death.
Just as Lu Li was leading Kenpachi Zaraki to clear the battlefield and thought the situation had stabilized and was about to go hunt down Gu Qiusha, the culprit, something strange happened again.
Amid the constant roar of battle on the other side of hell, a group of evil spirits actually broke through the blockade of the first generation captains and rushed out. They were ecstatic because they had the chance to come to the human world, but it didn't last for a few seconds before they were killed by Lu Li.
Lu Li couldn't figure out the spatial structure of hell. He wondered if hell was very small and the strong could quickly reach the gate of hell. But now there was indeed another group of strong men coming, and they had just joined the first generation of captains, which allowed some evil spirits to slip out.
In the distance, Gu Qiusha sensed the changes in the battlefield situation through the arrangements he left behind, and his originally ugly expression finally eased a little.
He did initially overlook the fact that the first generation captains were also in hell, but his ritual lasted for a long time, mainly to release a group of powerful evil spirits, so how could he be easily stopped by the first generation captains?
Fortunately, there are other evil ghost forces in hell that can rival the first generation captains, which is enough for his plan to continue.
He was just thinking that if the gate of hell was closed so smoothly, he would consider running away.
He did not ask the evil spirits in hell to completely defeat the Gotei 13, but at least they had to paralyze the captains except the captain-general. Otherwise, it would be troublesome if he was harassed by others when dealing with Lu Li.
In the Kabukicho battlefield, the situation changed again due to the addition of new forces.
Obviously, there are more voids that have fallen into hell than the gods of death who have fallen into hell. When the voids disappeared in the void holes in hell, they found their hearts back. The power of the heart will become stronger, thus breaking through the original boundaries of being a void.
In the world of Bleach, the upper limit of Hollows is actually the lowest. The peak of pure Shinigami is much higher than the peak of pure Hollows. Even if a Hollow becomes an Arrancar, it will still be beaten by a powerful captain.
It is because in this world where the power of the heart is so important, an empty heart is fatal.
Like in the original work, after Sal Apollo fell into hell, his strength was greatly improved, and he could even easily defeat Renji, who became a powerful captain after the bloody battle.
Right now, as more and more powerful Voids gathered together, even the first generation captains could not hold on any longer and were unable to completely block this huge gate to hell.
Several figures walked out from above the Gate of Hell. Their spiritual pressure was not obvious, but people could instinctively feel an ominous aura. Even the captain-level figures felt a huge pressure.
"Death God, I have come back from the end of hell."
The leading virtual being looked down at Lu Li with hatred and a hint of contempt in his eyes. Apparently, after gaining stronger power in Hell, he was now confident that he could wash away the shame of being killed.
"Bailagan..."
Lu Li was not surprised to see this Hollow. Whether from the perspective of spiritual pressure or evil deeds, Bylergan must go to hell. He just didn't expect that he would see two different versions of Bylergan within a few months.
Compared to the hell version of Sal Apollo, Bylergan's image is less fashionable. A single horn grew out of his original skeleton image, making him look a bit stupid.
The hollow hole tilted out, forming a white circle behind him, just like carrying a hula hoop.
Bylergan stood above and waved his hand, and the new subordinates he summoned in Hell rushed to the battlefield, causing considerable trouble to the Death God's side.
He himself walked down the stairs of nothingness, emitting the power of death, intending to kill Lu Li personally for revenge.
"Hey, this guy was Vastod in his previous life, right? It seems that Captain Lu has killed Vastod in Hueco Mundo?"
Kyoraku Shunsui sighed as he maintained the barrier, feeling that the situation was not looking good.
As time goes by, who knows if something else will come out of the gate of hell?
"Since Captain Lu conquered Hueco-Yoya, he must have fought before. This must be the former king of Hueco Mundo."
Ukitake Jushiro analyzed on the side and felt that even with the captain-general's spiritual pressure, it would be too difficult to suppress the gate of hell and close it again.
After all, too many Hollows were killed or injured in the Hueco Mundo this time, and a large amount of spiritual pressure disappeared, making it too difficult to maintain the balance. If things are impossible, he will have to consider sacrificing himself and use the Soul King's right hand to forcibly seal the Gate of Hell.
Before they set out for the human world, they used Lu Li as a bridge to open the Black Chamber in Hueco Mundo. All the Shinigami who stayed in Soul Society went to Hueco Mundo through the Black Chamber, and they also organized the continuous supply of Rukongai souls with spiritual power to Hueco Mundo.
This action is to replenish souls into Hueco Mundo. Although it is temporary, as long as a large number of high spiritual pressure souls enter Hueco Mundo, the balance of the three realms can be maintained to a certain extent.
Originally, the captain-general wanted to ruthlessly wipe out a group of Rukongai residents, but considering that too many Hollows died in Hueco Mundo this time, if he wanted to maintain the balance of the three realms through killing, he would probably have to destroy all the souls in areas one to thirty of Rukongai.
But that is too cruel and inhumane, and may not necessarily solve the problem.
Finally, at Lu Li's suggestion, the black chamber was opened by the Kyonyaku and the souls from the Soul Society were allowed to pass through. With an increase and a decrease on both sides, the imbalance problem could be alleviated to the greatest extent.
The only problem with this solution is that it takes time. After all, the transfer of personnel is very troublesome. Before the balance is re-established, all the pressure will be on the captain and his team.
They must stop the expansion of the Gate of Hell here.
At this moment, facing Bylergan's attack, Lu Li did not look at the other party directly.
Instead, he headed directly towards the direction indicated by the radar, where the violator was. Gu Qiusha had been preparing for so long, and the Gate of Hell might just be a prelude. He couldn't just accept it so passively, he had to kill Gu Qiusha quickly.
It would not be convenient for Sosuke to show his skills in this kind of battle. As the captain of the 11th Division, he must kill the bandit leader as soon as possible.
Just as Bylergan's breath of death was spreading to Lu Li, a dark green beam of light came, and the collision slowed down the spread of the power of aging.
A figure in a white windbreaker appeared next to Lu Li. It was Ulquiorra who had left Kyonyaku and rushed to the battlefield.
"Old man, we are one family, don't hit the wrong person, I'm going to hunt down the bandit leader."
Lu Li gave a reminder, then rushed out of the range of the aging black fog and chased towards the direction where Gu Qiusha was.
"This time I really owe Xuye Palace a favor..."
Captain Yamamoto said in a deep voice, shouting at the Gotei corps, "Everyone, be alert and don't let any demons go!"
Bylergan was furious when he saw Ulquiorra, whose form was different from what he remembered. "Damn it, he has fallen to this level. Are you going to unite with the God of Death?"
"I am just following Mr. Lu's instructions to stop the evil spirits from hell."
Ulquiorra had no intention of saying anything to Bylegend, and went straight into his Return to Blade form, revealing a whole new form that no one had ever seen before.
