âIs that so? According to what you said, Mr. Kimura was swallowed by the KĹtotsu, right?â
Sitting in the store, Kisuke put down the teacup in his hand and asked TĹshirĹÂ Hitsugaya.
In the battle, several Arrancar suddenly evacuated. After solving the protection of the berserk state of Hollowfication, Kisuke and his party were all concentrated in the Urahara Shop, and TĹshirĹÂ Hitsugaya also explained the situation of Muyang, who he saw at the last moment, being detained and swallowed by the crowd.
âIt is actually KĹtotsu.â
After listening to TĹshirĹÂ Hitsugayaâs words, Abarai Renjiâs face is full of heaviness. Although he has not really faced it, Renji also knows that that kind of thing is impossible for Shinigami to solve. So far, he has never heard of anyone escaping from that.
âWell, leave the next thing to me. TĹshirĹÂ Hitsugaya Captain, you will continue your own task. As for Mr. Ichigo, iâm counting on you Mr. Shinji. Please make sure that he has enough strength before the last war.â
âI know without you saying.â
Hirako Shinji glanced at Kurosaki Ichigo lying on the side and stood up.
âSince weâre done, Iâll be leaving first. As for Ichigo, you can ask him to come find us when he wakes up. He knows the place.â
âWhat? Donât you want to bring him back now?â
Kisuke covered his mouth with his fan and said with a hint of confusion in his eyes.
âThereâs no need. Let him decide this himself. But I donât have time to wait for him to wake up now. The people in the store are still waiting for me to explain it to them.â
Waving his hand, Hirako Shinji pulled open the door of Kisuke and walked out.
âThat, Mr. Hirako.â
âAh?â
âDonât worry, about Mr. Kimura, I will find a solution as soon as possible.â
âI wasnât worried at all.â
Hirako Shinji said in a light tone, turned his head and waved to Kisuke, with a careless look on his face.
Although I would also think that Kimura would encounter something bad.
But if it was that guy, everything would be fine no matter what happened â at least we always believed in him.
Hearing Hirako Shinjiâs words, Kisukeâs body slightly paused, and then his face revealed a heartfelt smile.
âWell, thatâs it. Iâm leaving.â
Putting his hand in his pocket, Hirako Shinji slowly walked toward their stronghold. His face was still indifferent, but there was a deep worry in the depths of his eyes.
âYou must not have an accident, Kimura.â
âââââ
âWho is this guy, Mr. Kisuke?â
Seeing that Hirako Shinji figure was getting farther and farther away, Renji turned his head and asked Kisuke.
Previously, he had felt that this personâs identity was strange. This was because he had never asked. Now that he saw that Hirako Shinji had left, he could not help but ask.
âWell, if Renji asks this, I am also very curious about the identity of this person. Although we did not participate in the battle before, but from the situation we saw at the scene, this guyâs strength is enormous. If we fight face to face, I am not sure to win.â
Hearing Renjiâs question, TĹshirĹÂ Hitsugaya touched his chin and said, âFrom the traces of Reiryoku left on the scene, Hirako Shinjiâs strength is absolutely the same level as him, a real Captain level.â
âThis person, Mr. Ikkaku should know it.â
Kisuke did not answer, but turned his eyes to the opposite corner of Ikkaku.
âAh, I do have an impression of this person.â
Ikkaku touched his own Zanpakuto, staring at the cup in front of him, and said in a low voice: âA hundred years ago, he was the captain of Gotei 13th, 5th Division, and is a very powerful old qualified captain.â
â5th Division Captain?â
Hearing the introduction of Ikkaku, the faces of several people around him moved. Isnât 5th Division the Division where Aizen is? A hundred years agoâŚ
âAh.â
Lifting his eyes to glance at the surrounding people, Ikkaku continued to say: âAt that time, Aizen was his Vice-Captain.â
âThen why did heâŚâ
After hearing the words of Ikkaku, Renji only felt that there were more and more questions in his brain, and he was going to ask Ikkaku.
âPa! Pa!â
Clapping his hands and interrupting Renjiâs words, Kisuke saw that everyone focused on himself and said, âThe memories of the past will stop first. What we are going to discuss now is about Aizen, and the task you have to achieve in Human World this time.â
âââââ
âAre you saying that Kimura has been captured and swallowed?!â
In Anding District, after listening to Hirako Shinjiâs report, Hiyori suddenly slammed the table and stared at Hirako Shinji.
âWell, in any case, that 10th Division Captain said so.â
â10th Division?â
Hearing the words spoken by Hirako Shinji, Love raised his head, âIs it because of the little brat that Kimura stayed in Soul Society for so long? Is it because he is the captain of 10th Division?â
âIt is indeed possible for you to say so. After all, he is your own junior. It is natural to take care of him.â
Rose lifted his long hair and said lightly.
âWhat are you two talking about? We are now discussing the matter of Kimura being caught and devoured. Donât focus on other places, Baldy!â
âI heard that the current captain of the 10th Division is still a child. It is said that Soul Society is a genius that only appears once in a hundred years.â
Ignoring Hiyoriâs roar, Lisa pushed her glasses and said.
âWhat! A mere brat can become a captain? Soul Society is getting more and more useless! â What are you all talking about! Kimura is gone now! That is something that Shinigami can not fight against. Kimura, heâŚâ
âDonât panic, Hiyori!â
With a low shout, Hiyori was awakened from her anxiety and frustration. Hirako Shinji looked straight into her eyes and said, âYou have to have confidence in Kimura. That guy will not be killed by a mere thing like that.â
âButâŚâ
Although he heard what Hirako Shinji said, Hiyori was still unable to feel relieved.
âWell, if you continue to worry like this, you will look down on Kimura. As friends, at this time, what we have to do is to believe him and welcome him with a smile when he comes back.â
âHumph!â
After a cold snort, Hiyori shook off the palm that Hirako Shinji placed on his shoulder. With his hands on his waist, he strode toward the backyard with a face full of displeasure.
âForget it, I donât care about you, and so does Kimura. Even if he canât come back, it doesnât matter!â
âEh? Hiyoriâs face seems to have turned red.â
Kuna Mashiro put his finger to his lips, tilted his head to look at Hiyori, and then said in a cute tone.
âHahahaha!!â
Hearing Kuna Mashiroâs words, the room immediately burst into laughter.
âHowever, is it really okay?â
After a long while, the laughter was calm. After a moment of hesitation, Starrk glanced at Suzuki Kusu beside him and asked softly.
âIf there is anything I can do, please tell me.â
âItâs okay.â
Suzuki Kusu shook her head gently and saw the doubt in the eyes of Starrk and Harribel on the other side. Her eyes also showed a trace of confusion.
âDonât you know Kimuraâs ability?â
âHis ability?â Starrk scratched his head. He did not pay attention to Muyangâs ability, but remembered that it was related to the wind.
âDoes his ability have anything to do with this matter?â
With a chuckle, Suzuki Kusu opened his mouth: âKimuraâs Bankai is related to space. Even if it is really swallowed by KĹtotsu, it will only cause some impact on his action. He has the space ability, no matter what kind of environment he faces, it is not difficult to get out, it is just a matter of time.â
âIt turned out to be like this, it seems that I do not need to worry.â
After listening to Suzuki Kusuâs words, Stark suddenly relaxed. Even if he did not mention Muyangâs ability, Stark also felt that he would not encounter any accident, let alone his ability is still about space.
âSince there is nothing else, I will go back to sleep first.â
Standing up and stretching, Stark put his hands in his trouser pocket and walked upstairs with a yawn. Before, because of the sudden appearance of several groups of Reiryoku, he did not sleep well. Now he is going to make up for sleep.
âBy the way, Shinji, where is Kurosaki Ichigo?â
Kensei suddenly raised his head and asked Hirako Shinji. Originally, they planned to pull Kurosaki Ichigo to their side. Although they did not go to the scene in the previous battle, they had witnessed the whole process through Suzuki Kusuâs ability. Moreover, Reiryoku, who felt from the air, would not lie. Based on the strength shown by Kurosaki Ichigo, he was absolutely qualified to join them.
âThe hollow inside the kidâs body in the battle just now has gone berserk again. If he doesnât control it, he will really become hollow.â
Hearing Kenseiâs question, the movements of the surrounding people paused and turned their eyes to Hirako Shinji.
âHe is unconscious now. I did not bring him back. For this kind of thing, it is better to wait for him to wake up and make a decision. But I think he will come after waking up. He should know that if he wants to play a role in the final battle, he can only ask for our help.â
