The Attempt to Kill Orihime

Even without memories of a past life, according to the time sung in the Auswählen, Yhwach is almost...

Thinking of this, Tokoyo Misao's eyes suddenly lit up.

Could it be that Aizen, having learned of the Wandenreich's existence, wanted to eliminate Yhwach from the final rounds?

Considering Aizen's consistent behavior and his proud nature, it's possible, quite possible.

If that's the case, then Soul Society could also do something to help.

"Oh? So, Boss Misao, do you know why Aizen hasn't made a move yet?" Kisuke Urahara asked immediately upon seeing Misao's slightly upturned lips.

There was no way around it; this matter had been weighing on everyone's minds for far too long.

"Speaking of which, tomorrow's the weekend, isn't it?" Tokoyo Misao gave a completely unrelated reply.

"Every weekend, the Ishida family comes to our store to sit for a while."

Kisuke Urahara's eyes lit up; it seemed the key to solving the problem lay with Ryūken Ishida.

The next day, the Ishida family arrived as promised in the store's entertainment area.

Tokoyo Misao smiled and waved to Ryūken Ishida at the bar, who then came over and sat down.

"So, when is the Wandenreich planning to attack the Three Worlds?" He personally brewed coffee and poured a cup for Ryūken in front of him.

Ryūken Ishida had just picked up his steaming coffee when he heard the question, so he put it back down and replied with a frown:

"I don't know the exact time, but Haschwalth, who now controls the Wandenreich, is somewhat wary of me."

However, recently that man has been waking up intermittently, and each time the wake-up call is longer than the last. It should be within a month, right?

"Within a month?" Tokoyo Misao nodded. "What do you think of that guy?"

The guy he was referring to was naturally Yhwach. Aizen's decisions had changed, and it was unknown whether this guy would also change.

Ryūken Ishida responded coldly, "After several encounters, I'm even more certain of my judgment; he's nothing but a crazy loser."

After saying that, he picked up his coffee cup and drank it all in one gulp.

Tokoyo Misao remained silent, observing quietly.

Don't be fooled by Ryūken Ishida's earlier statement calling Yhwach a loser.

However, the solemn aura emanating from him indicated that he was actually very worried; his brows were almost furrowed into a deep frown.

After thinking for a moment, Tokoyo Misao said, "After all this time, you still haven't been able to locate the Wandenreich?"

As Tokoyo Misao no Morikazuchi within the Wandenreich, Ryūken Ishida has two main tasks:

First, observe when Yhwach will truly wake up.

Secondly, it is about finding a way to enter the Wandenreich.

To this day, every time Ryūken Ishida enters the Wandenreich or comes to the World of the Living, someone always guides him.

He couldn't be like the Sternritter, able to return to the Wandenreich at any time.

Because he hasn't received any coordinates since he joined.

That method of disappearing into the shadows actually meant that someone from the Wandenreich was providing support.

Quincy cannot all travel freely. Even if an individual Quincy possesses the ability to merge with or tear through space, it is impossible for all Sternritter and its members to use it.

Even for Hollows, who are naturally most sensitive to space, not just anyone can open the Hueco Mundo portal at will.

Ryūken Ishida had been investigating the Wandenreich to find out who had the ability to pick people up there.

Unfortunately, this person is very well hidden, very deeply hidden, and he still hasn't found out about him.

Seeing his expression, Tokoyo Misao understood and said softly, "If we can find a way to enter through you, then the Quincy will not be a problem."

The time until Yhwach fully awakens is drawing ever closer. He paused there.

Ryūken Ishida's previously solemn face also became extremely serious.

He first glanced at his wife in the entertainment area, then turned to look at Tokoyo Misao:

"Time waits for no one, so it's only right to do some risky things."

"By the way, Boss Misao, could I have a glass of your brewed wine?"

Tokoyo Misao replied with a smile, "Of course, no problem."

He bent down and took out a jar from under the bar, broke the clay seal, and a rich floral fragrance wafted out, filling the entire chamber of commerce.

He poured a glass and pushed it towards Ryūken Ishida.

The latter looked at the glass of wine and smiled, "When Boss Misao opened his shop, he brewed this jar of wine, and I've always wanted to drink it."

He was not a fan of alcohol, and had never liked the taste of it.

But he intends to drink this glass of wine today, because it's a deal with Boss Misao.

If he risks his life, then the safety of his wife and children at home will be guaranteed by the Boss Misao.

Ryūken Ishida picked up his wine glass and drank it all in one gulp.

The unique fragrance of the flowers was so strong that it drifted into the recreation area, causing people playing and relaxing there to turn their heads and look over.

When Kanae Katagiri saw her husband drink that glass of wine, her pupils dilated in shock, and her heart tightened.

She realized her husband might be about to do something dangerous.

However, she didn't say anything, clenched her teeth tightly, and lowered her head.

She could only pray silently in her heart, hoping that her husband would return safely.

Chapter 173 Assault on Orihime

On the outskirts of Karakura Town, Cang Du, a member of the Sternritter, stands with his hands behind his back.

Those small eyes, peering through round glasses, looked up at the full moon in the night sky.

A cold wind blew, and he remarked with a touch of wistfulness, "The moon is so round tonight."

Tap tap tap, a series of footsteps sounded, and Ryūken Ishida approached.

"What, you want to admire the moon here? Indeed, you can't see the moon from over there."

In the space of the Wandenreich, there is no moon, and of course, there is no sun.

It is a space hidden in the shadows of Soul Society.

Cang Du turned his head and looked over, his eyes sharp. "Back then, you told His Majesty that you would gather intelligence for the Wandenreich."

But after all these years, all you've brought back are trivial things.

Do you think this ambiguity can continue indefinitely? Do you truly have loyalty to His Majesty?

His words were colder than the wind that had just blown, and his scrutinizing gaze was fixed on Ryūken Ishida's face.

The atmosphere in the Three Worlds has recently become extremely oppressive, even affecting the Wandenreich.

This calm before the typhoon made everyone tense.

And it is precisely at times like these that loyalty becomes even more important.

Cang Du believed that although he had taken the wrong path and brought Ryūken Ishida, Pure-Blood Quincy from the Ishida Family, back to the Empire, he had a responsibility to monitor him and prove his loyalty.

Therefore, over the years, he has always been the one leading Ryūken Ishida in and out of the Wandenreich.

Recently, His Majesty has been waking up for longer and longer periods of time, and it seems that the time for the final assault is fast approaching.

However, the guy he recommended to become a member of the Sternritter had no important information whatsoever.

If this continues, it's not just a matter of loyalty, but also a matter of Cang Du's abilities.

Ryūken Ishida spoke coldly, "This time I brought back crucial information, related to Aizen and Tokoyo Misao."

Cang Du's spirits lifted, and forcibly suppressing his excitement, he asked again to confirm, "Really?"

"Really." Ryūken Ishida nodded.

Cang Du grinned and waved his hand.

A black aura surged, and his shadow seemed to come alive, transforming into a curtain that enveloped the two of them.

This ability is the Shadow Ability required to enter and exit the Wandenreich.

After observing for several years, Ryūken Ishida discovered that not only Cang Du could use it, but several members of the Sternritter could also use it.

But he just couldn't use it, and he couldn't even understand it.

In his analysis, there are two possibilities.

Firstly, there is someone within the Sternritter who possesses abilities related to shadows.

These Sternritter could send messages to that person to guide them.

Secondly, there is this ability, an ability that members of the Sternritter possess, but he was not granted it.

Before long, the two arrived at the Wandenreich and headed towards the Wahrwelt.

They had only taken a couple of steps when they saw a member of the Sternritter with a mohawk walking towards them.

The newcomer was a member of the Sternritter, with the Schrift H, Bazz-B.

He laughed heartily, opened his arms, and came to stand in front of Cang Du: "I really envy you, being able to go to the World of the Living for some fresh air every now and then. How about letting me go next time?"

Cang Du replied coldly, "I'm carrying out His Majesty's orders, not going to play in the World of the Living."

Bazz-B shook his head and grinned, saying, "The World of the Living has already set traps. What if you keep running over there and get caught?"

"Let me go. If we encounter the enemy, I'm more skilled in combat."

Cang Du frowned, his voice turning cold. "Bazz-B, do you intend to betray the Wandenreich?"

"Fufu, no," Bazz-B quickly waved his hands, "Isn't gathering intelligence for the Empire's benefit? If I'm lucky, I might even kill a few enemies in the World of the Living."

"You bastard!" Cang Du glared.

At this moment, Ryūken Ishida suddenly spoke up, "Then let's just do this. Now is a crucial time. If too many people go to the World of the Living, it will be easy to be exposed. Why don't we just let me go alone afterwards?"

"Ha, what are you talking about? Shadow abilities can only be used by those granted them by His Majesty. Without shadow abilities, you can't even leave the Wahrwelt." Bazz-B glanced at Ryūken Ishida with disdain.

"The eldest son of an ancient Quincy pureblood family, and this is all he's capable of?"

Ryūken Ishida did not refute. He adjusted his glasses and calmly said, "I have important news to report."

Cang Du immediately followed, shouting at Bazz-B, "Get out of the way! The news you brought back this time is very important!"

Bazz-B frowned. "Now you won't be able to see His Majesty even if you go into the city. You can only tell him everything by speaking to Haschwalth."

A flicker of fire flashed in his eyes when he mentioned the name, then he waved his hand, turned around, put his hands in his pockets, and said somewhat listlessly.

"This is really boring." Then he walked away.

Cang Du frowned upon hearing Bazz-B's words.

His Majesty has been waking up frequently lately, but at irregular times.

But he didn't want Ryūken Ishida to tell Haschwalth any crucial information.

He wanted to bring the other person to meet His Majesty directly.

Ryūken Ishida could see this too, so he suggested, "Why don't we go into the city and wait? If His Majesty is still asleep a day later, then we can suppress this news for now."

"No!" Cang Du denied loudly.

Indeed, he desperately wanted to tell His Majesty the news in person, but he couldn't afford to delay the opportunity.

Intelligence is time-sensitive, and as a loyal knight of the Wandenreich, he wouldn't waste intelligence because of a little personal emotion.

He gritted his teeth and said with some dissatisfaction, "Let's go!"

Upon entering the Wahrwelt, as expected, Yhwach was still asleep, and Haschwalth was in control of the conversation.

Despite his dissatisfaction, Cang Du still took Ryūken Ishida with him.

"Tell me your information." Haschwalth stood ramrod straight, his left hand resting on the hilt of the longsword at his waist, exuding an imposing aura.

Without any hesitation, Ryūken Ishida said directly, "Currently, there are four Special War Powers stationed in the World of the Living: Tokoyo Misao, Ichigo Kurosaki, Orihime Inoue, and Kisuke Urahara."

They have completed the replacement arrangements in Karakura Town. Once activated, they can transfer the entire city and its high-level Reishi particles to Soul Society.

Haschwalth nodded. "Not bad, it's finished? And having four Special War Powers in the World of the Living is indeed quite troublesome. Continue."
