Chapter 663: Zanpakuto's Back Door

Wang Yue of Nimeiya had already seen the broken sword that Ichigo was carrying, and laughed out loud when he heard what Lu Li said, "Lu Li, why do you think I should listen to you and help Kurosaki Ichigo forge the sword?"

He felt that Lu Li had gone mad. It was true that Kurosaki Ichigo was a descendant of a noble family, but the Shiba family had fallen into decline, and he did not think that if Kurosaki Ichigo regained his strength, it would be of any benefit to the Soul King Palace and the Three Realms.

"This guy wants to defeat Yhwach and protect Soul Society. Are you really not going to lend a hand?"

Lu Li said this expressionlessly, with no sign of joy or anger.

"This is the Soul King Palace. Find out where you are. Protecting Soul Society is the job of the Gotei 13. Just because you can run wild in the Soul Society doesn't mean you can do whatever you want in the Soul King Palace."

Wang Yue said this and snapped his fingers, asking all the beauties in the Phoenix Palace to leave. He felt that Lu Li had come with bad intentions. It could be said that from the moment they labeled Lu Li a traitor, the two sides were no longer the same kind of people.

"Master..."

Ichigo Kurosaki wanted to speak up to persuade them. He felt that it was not a good idea to take action in the Soul King Palace, especially since Yhwach was still causing trouble below. If they fought at this time, wouldn't it be a civil war?

"Ichigo, you seem to have forgotten something."

Lu Li reminded, bringing Ichigo back to his senses immediately.

Ichigo's expression became serious. He looked at Wang Yue, but he didn't ask about sword forging. "Where's Inoue? Why didn't you let her come back?"

When Wang Yue heard Ichigo Kurosaki ask about Inoue, she looked unnatural for a moment, "Neither the real world nor the underworld is safe now, right? She is the safest in the Soul King Palace, is there anything wrong with that?"

Ichigo Kurosaki is not a three-year-old child. He can immediately tell the problem with this statement. "We clearly agreed to come up and visit for a day, why did you detain me!?"

He thought of the feud between his master and Squad Zero, and felt even less favorable toward this so-called royal spy. "Where is Inoue? I want to see her!"

Wang Yue frowned at Kurosaki Ichigo's roar. He pulled out a Zanpakutō from nowhere and said, "Kurosaki Ichigo, you don't seem to understand your position. As a Shinigami agent, invading the Soul King Palace without permission is already a first-class crime. Considering your background, this is a crime that can implicate other members of the Shiba family."

When Kurosaki Ichigo returned to the human world this time, he also questioned his father and learned a little about his life experience. He also confirmed that Lu Li was indeed his master.

So when he heard that the Shiba family would also be affected, he became even more angry, "This has nothing to do with them, right? It was you who arrested Inoue first!"

In anger, Ichigo Kurosaki even used the word "grab". If his Zangetsu had not been broken, he would have probably attacked with a Getsuga Tensho.

"Wang Yue..."

At this time, Lu Li called out Wang Yue's name. He was not familiar with the other party, and calling his name at this time would seem disrespectful, which was exactly what he wanted.

The next moment, before Wang Yue from Ermeiwu could react, a hand grabbed his throat.

Lu Li's instant step was so fast that Wang Yue couldn't see clearly and was subdued. This made Wang Yue even more surprised at Lu Li's growth and change, but he did not panic.

After all, he is a living fossil-level figure in Soul Society. Even if his physical strength is average, his character is still there. He knows that there is a monk in charge of Team Zero, and Lu Li can't turn the tables no matter what.

"Coerce me? It's useless. Even if you kill me, I will not recast Zangetsu for Kurosaki Ichigo, and you will never be able to leave the Soul King Palace."

Wang Yue said with a smile. He has a casual personality and speaks with a special rhythm, and he doesn't seem nervous at all.

"You misunderstood. What I said before was not a request or a negotiation..."

Lu Li's pair of Samsara Sharingan slowly turned, "It's an order."

"You seem to have misunderstood something. Do you think that just because you have fast instant movement speed and strong spiritual pressure, you can control me at will?"

Wang Yue's expression remained calm. "Don't forget, no matter how strong you become, you are still a god of death."

As he spoke, he began to try to communicate with the prisoner demon who was controlling Lu Li.

All the original forms of Zanpakuto in Soul Society were created by him. As the founder of the Zanpakuto system, how could he not leave some backdoors for himself?

This is also one of the means by which Squad Zero monitors Soul Society, in order to prevent powerful Shinigami from rebelling in the future and subverting the structure of the Soul King Palace.

Lu Li felt the unusual movement of the Prisoner and found it very interesting, because he thought that after the Prisoner became his own growth-oriented special weapon, it was no longer a simple Zanpakutō.

But now it seems that Wang Yue of Ermeiwu still has the ability to interfere with the Prisoner Demon. However, in front of the Prisoner Demon who has been certified by the space, Wang Yue will never be able to take control of the Prisoner Demon.

Lu Li took the initiative to let go of Wang Yue's hand, wanting to see how far Wang Yue could go and what the so-called Zanpakuto backdoor was.

Wang Yue saw Lu Li loosen his hand and thought that Lu Li was afraid of his ability, so the smile on his face became even bigger. "Lu Li, it's a wise choice. To be honest, we admired your ability in the past. If you are willing to abide by the rules, we can still accept you."

He said this, but he was still trying to conquer the back door of the Demon Prisoner. He found that Lu Li's Demon Prisoner was different from other Zanpakuto. It had an inexplicably complicated structure and was not at all like the back door he remembered.

But he felt that with his understanding of the Zanpakuto system, as long as he had enough time, he could still shake the prisoner.

The essence of Zanpakuto is that the god of death injects his soul into it and forms it. He found the back door of Zanpakuto, and what he targeted was not the sword, but the soul of the god of death.

Therefore, Wang Yue believed that as long as he could break through the back door and hold the spirit of the Zanpakuto hostage, he would actually be holding Lu Li's soul hostage, and then he would be sure to win.

In the history of Soul Society, he had used this method to deal with several rebellious Shinigami, but that was before the birth of Captain-General Yamamoto.

With Captain Yamamoto, the law-abiding guardian of the Soul Society, Squad Zero has rarely taken action in recent years. They did not even take part in the bloody battle a thousand years ago.

"Master?"

Seeing Lu Li let go and move away, coupled with Wang Yue's words, Ichigo felt confused and worried.

"What a man who knows how to talk. No wonder he can deceive so many girls."

Lu Li said sarcastically, raising his hand to signal Kurosaki Ichigo to calm down, "You are still making small moves, but you say you want to recruit me?"

Hearing Lu Li's words, Wang Yue's expression changed slightly, but it only lasted for a moment, because the next moment he found that he had found a way to peek into Lu Li's Zanpakuto.

According to his understanding of Zanpakutō, as long as he lets his consciousness invade Zanpakutō, with his control over this system, he will definitely be able to destroy Lu Li's Shinigami ability.

Just as Wang Yue was about to use this to deal with Lu Li and suppress him in the Spirit King Palace, his consciousness was suddenly and rapidly pulled into Lu Li's Zanpakutō.

This made him happy at first, but then he realized something was wrong, because he hadn't even started the invasion yet, so why was his soul consciousness being pulled?
The next moment, he felt that his consciousness had entered a pitch-black space, and the wailing sounds of souls in purgatory were everywhere around him. Those sounds were harsh and terrifying, causing his soul to tremble constantly.

When he wanted to escape from Lu Li's Zanpakuto space, the scene in front of him changed, and he found that the scene changed while he was running, and he bumped into the wall of the cage. He instinctively felt a tingling sensation on his scalp, and even though he knew he shouldn't look back, he couldn't help but look back.

When he looked back, he saw... the end.

"what--"

In reality, Wang Yue suddenly held his head and started screaming in pain, rolling on the ground like a madman, and finally curled up there, shaking constantly.

"Master, what's going on?"

Ichigo asked, somewhat confused, upon seeing this.

I don’t know why Wang Yue, a strong man from Squad Zero, suddenly went crazy.

"Alas, who knew he would be so fragile? I originally wanted to use this founder of Zanpakuto to discover the secret of my Zanpakuto."

Lu Li sighed, "This seems to be troublesome. It seems that I can't let him forge the sword."

He had long known that there was something wrong with the 'sword spirit' of his Zanpakutō, or that there was a monster hidden deep in his soul, so he wanted to see how Wang Yue would react when he encountered it.

In fact, Wang Yue was unable to break through the back door of his Zanpakuto. It would be better to say that after this equipment was brought into the space, there was no back door anymore. But when Wang Yue tried to conquer it, the Prisoner himself revealed some flaws, making Wang Yue think that he had found a way to conquer it.

This feeling was like a high-end hunter fishing for a hook, but as soon as Wang Yue moved a little closer, he was swallowed by the prisoner demon.

Lu Li didn't know what Wang Yue saw, but he vaguely heard the demon's disdainful laughter.

"There's no rush for sword forging. Let's go find Inoue first."

Ichigo was worried about his companions. He felt that there would always be a way out. If it really didn't work out, he could just stop being a Shinigami and learn from Ishida to become a Quincy.

Obviously, his father only told him part of his life story and not the whole thing. Judging from the fact that he has the ability of a Quincy, his mother is probably a Quincy.

"Do both things at once. You go and reforge your Zanpakutō, and I'll go find Inoue."

Lu Li said that time was running out, Yhwach had already arrived in Soul Society, and even with Aizen there to back him up, there was no way there would be no casualties, so they had to speed up.

"But...he's already like this, how can he forge a sword?"

Ichigo pointed at Wang Yue on the ground, a crazy guy who didn't look like he could repair his Zanpakuto.

"That's easy to say."

Lu Li walked forward and pulled Wang Yue up. He looked into Wang Yue's eyes with the Rinnegan. The powerful power of his eyes immediately controlled Wang Yue, whose consciousness had already collapsed.

Lu Li doesn't need to read Wang Yue's memory and knowledge, he just needs to manipulate him to do things.

"Ichigo, come with me. I will take you to forge a new Zangetsu."

After Wang Yue was controlled, his voice became gentle and he raised his hand to signal Ichigo to follow him.

Ichigo was a little surprised. He didn't expect that his master had such ability. Is he really still the God of Death?
"Don't just stand there, every second counts. Didn't you say you wanted to protect your friends?"

Lu Li pushed Ichigo, and he turned to face the west of the Phoenix Palace.

His previous conflict with Wang Yue had only lasted for a short time, but the people in Squad Zero were obviously aware of it. The reason why no one came to support him immediately was because they thought Wang Yue could handle it.

After all, Lu Li is a Shinigami, not a Quincy like Yhwach. As the founder of the Zanpakuto system, no one would think that Wang Yue would lose to a Shinigami.

Even if the captain was here, Wang Yue could win the battle with the back door of his Zanpakuto. Who knew that he would go crazy after seeing the truth about Lu Li's Zanpakuto.

Seeing Wang Yue fall, the other members of Team Zero obviously could not sit still anymore. They jumped out of their own palaces one by one and came to the platform of the Phoenix Palace.

Izumi Yuki Kirinji Tenshiro, Valley King Hikifune Kiryu, and Oori-no-kami Shutara Senjumaru, three figures landed on the west square and looked at Lu Li.

"Master, these people..."

Ichigo sensed that the auras of these people were all very strong. He was about to offer his help, but then he recalled what his master had just said. He stopped hesitating, shut up, turned around, followed Wang Yue's footsteps, and went to the main hall to prepare to forge the sword.

Those beauties who were loyal to Wang Yue and were transformed from their Zanpakuto also followed in Wang Yue's footsteps.

They knew that Wang Yue was controlled, but they were Zanpakuto forged by Wang Yue and could not disobey his orders.

"What a terrible ability! I don't remember you having such a power before."

Kirinji looked at this scene and couldn't help but frowned, "Boy, let Wang Yue go. We can let him reforge the Zanpakutō for Kurosaki Ichigo. As for you..."

"Are you going to serve your sentence in the Maou Underground Prison?"

Lu Li continued with a smile, then his expression gradually darkened, "Let's stop joking here, where's Inoue?"

"Land from."

Shudoro Senjumaru called out Lu Li's name, "That girl's ability is useful to the Three Realms. We have no ill will towards her, just like we have no ill will towards you. Now that Yhwach has resurrected, it goes without saying that his target is the Soul King. This is not the time for us to start a war."

"Oh? That's not what Wang Yue told me just now."

As Lu Li spoke, he took a step forward, and the spiritual pressure on his body became more and more apparent. The powerful force stirred the spiritual particles above the Spirit King Palace, making several members of the Zero Squad look unhappy.

"It seems that some people are not optimistic about the Gotei 13. What do you want to do with Inoue? Don't tell me that it's to repair the Soul King. She is not that capable."

Lu Li's black thunder was parasitic on Inoue. He knew that Inoue was safe and that her spiritual pressure was getting stronger, but he didn't know the purpose of Squad Zero.

"Captain Lu, I'll still call you that."

Hikifune Kiryu looked at Lu Li with a complicated expression. She didn't know what she had done before to consume her energy and become slimmer. Now she looked familiar to Lu Li. "You misunderstood. We didn't mean to hurt that girl."
