Kenpachi Zaraki and Starrk
Captain-Commander Yamamoto then stated, "The balance of the Three Worlds must absolutely not be broken."
All the team captains present understood this.
Even if this gap doesn't continue to widen, it could still cause the collapse of the Three Worlds.
However, to achieve balance, one must travel to Hueco Mundo and eliminate the corresponding number of Hueco Mundo.
Jūshirō Ukitake frowned. He was in relatively good condition today and hadn't coughed up blood. He quickly said:
"But if we form Hueco Mundo Expeditionary Force and mobilize most of our forces to attack Hueco Mundo, the situation will become even more dangerous if the Wandenreich launches a surprise attack."
Mayuri Kurotsuchi grinned and said, "Compared to the impending disruption of the balance of the Three Worlds, the threat of the Wandenreich is merely a possibility."
Moreover, if I have another half day, I can develop the Shadow-Invasion Drug, and then we will have the initiative.
However, the current state of the Three Worlds cannot last even half a day.
"So now we have two problems in front of us."
First, the Three Worlds are out of balance and must be addressed.
"Secondly, the threat of the Wandenreich." Shunsui Kyōraku took the initiative to stand in the center and speak.
"Let's discuss the first point, which is our duty as Soul Reapers."
Several of our captains have just fought against Arrancar. Their soul density is extremely high. Even if we kill them, obliterating their bodies won't be something we can do in a short time. So we still need to focus our attention on the Menos Grande."
Whether it's Soul Reaper or a Hollow, once their soul density reaches a certain level, even if they are killed, their bodies will not dissipate and will return to the earth.
For example, when Captain-level figure dies, only Division Funeral Ceremony can be held to send the captain's body away.
There are indeed methods to obliterate the bodies of Hollows of Captain-level or higher, but those methods would take far too long.
Division Funeral Ceremony can also be held to send off the Arrancar body.
But it can't be fully prepared in half a day.
Therefore, there is only one choice left in the Soul Society.
Send people to Hueco Mundo to annihilate large numbers of Menos Grande or ordinary Hollows until a balance is achieved among the Three Worlds.
Ukitake sighed at this moment, "Forming Hueco Mundo expedition team is too risky. It would be best to choose a strong captain to go to Hueco Mundo to support Kenpachi Zaraki."
"We need to eliminate a sufficient number of Hollows, and then return with Kenpachi Zaraki. Only then can we solve the second problem."
Shunsui Kyōraku nodded. "That's right. Although Hueco Mundo is also dangerous, comparatively speaking, the Wandenreich is the one we should focus our efforts on eliminating first."
After all, they can directly annihilate the spirit, creating a breach.
This is why, hundreds of years after the war a thousand years ago, the Soul Reaper once again launched a purge against the Quincy in the World of the Living.
As long as these Quincy continue to destroy Hollows, the gap will only grow larger and larger.
After some discussion, the team leaders confirmed their top priority.
That is to select a powerful captain to go to Hueco Mundo to support Kenpachi Zaraki and resolve the issue of the balance of the Three Worlds.
Among the captains present, Sixth Division Captain Byakuya Kuchiki was covered in bandages and was swaying slightly as he stood, clearly severely injured.
Second Division Captain Soi Fon was also exhausted and could only barely stand upright.
Captain Mayuri Kurotsuchi is a researcher, and his combat strength is not particularly strong.
Tōshirō Hitsugaya, the acting captain of the Ninth Division, is indeed very strong, and even nearly killed the traitor Kaname Tōsen at one point, but he is still not mature enough.
Captain Unohana is a medical specialist, Captain Ukitake is in poor health.
After a moment's thought, all the captains turned their eyes to the illusory figure in the last row— Tokoyo Misao, the captain of the Tenth Division.
Shunsui Kyōraku smiled and said, "So that's how it is, Captain Tokoyo. May I entrust this mission to you?"
Of course, there's no need to worry about the World of the Living. Those World of the Living captains who fell into the thieves' trap and ended up stranded there can be trusted to keep an eye on World of the Living.
Tokoyo Misao -Captain-Commander Yamamoto had already exonerated Shinji Hirako and the others.
He thought for a moment, then reached out and grabbed to the side, where Shinji Hirako appeared.
"Captain Hirako, it's been a long time." Shunsui Kyōraku quickly greeted him and began to strike up a conversation.
"If you're willing, you can return to Soul Society anytime. We can have another drink together then."
Shinji Hirako grinned. "We'll see when the time comes."
Then his eyes turned to Captain-Commander Yamamoto. He respected the Captain-Commander greatly, but at this moment, he still harbored a little resentment.
Shunsui Kyōraku understood this as well, so he stepped aside.
Captain-Commander Yamamoto said in a deep voice, "Fifth Division Captain Shinji Hirako, the Soul Society has withdrawn its warrant for your arrest."
As the current wartime supreme commander, I hereby announce that all of you members may return to Soul Society and continue to enjoy Captain-level privileges.
Even Shinji Hirako was taken aback by these words.
All the captains understood that Captain-Commander Yamamoto had bowed his head and admitted his mistake.
This is a very rare occurrence.
Shinji Hirako's expression also turned serious. "I will go back and discuss this with them." After saying that, he left directly.
"Captain Tokoyo, the mission of going to Hueco Mundo to support Kenpachi Zaraki and restore the balance of the Three Worlds is assigned to you," Captain-Commander Yamamoto ordered.
"Alright, then I'll go to Hueco Mundo. Oh, and I plan to take my disciple Orihime Inoue and Ichigo Kurosaki with me. They've never seen what Hueco Mundo is like before, it'll be good for them to broaden their horizons."
Captain-Commander Yamamoto frowned. After training under his command for some time, Ichigo Kurosaki could be considered a hidden trump card for the Seireitei. Bringing him to Hueco Mundo at this time would not be a good thing.
"Grandpa, I support Captain Tokoyo. The Arrancar who came this time are extremely strong. Even if it were just Captain Tokoyo and Kenpachi Zaraki, they might not be able to return." Shunsui Kyōraku said solemnly.
There was not a trace of a joke in his eyes.
Not long ago, he had already planned to trade his life for Ulquiorra's.
Moreover, after exchanging information upon returning, they learned that the Arrancar also possessed the skill of Resurrección.
The two Arrancar they faced didn't even use their abilities.
There are a full ten guys with that level of strength.
Not to mention Aizen, who rules them; no one knows just how powerful he is now.
"Permission granted." After a moment's thought, Captain-Commander Yamamoto agreed.
Tokoyo Misao turned off the communication and looked at Kisuke Urahara beside him. "What, you want to come along too? I wouldn't mind taking you along."
"Haha, I won't go to such a dangerous place Hueco Mundo, but I have a suggestion."
Kisuke Urahara reached out and pulled his hat brim down, then continued speaking.
"I've already stolen Captain Mayuri Kurotsuchi's data on shadow abilities."
"When did you develop the habit of stealing other people's research results?" Tokoyo Misao, somewhat puzzled. "Don't you have a more powerful member of the Sternritter?"
"Everyone has their own expertise, and I'm not omnipotent after all. In this respect, Mayuri Kurotsuchi is indeed stronger than me, and I knew that from the beginning."
"That's why I used the backdoor left in the Shinigami Research and Development Institute to move the data over directly," Kisuke Urahara explained with a grin.
"Boss Misao, actually, for the Hollows and Arrancars in Hueco Mundo, although we Soul Reaper and Soul Society are enemies, the Quincy are our natural enemies!"
What would happen if we threw the information about the Shadow Ability and this Quincy into Hueco Mundo?
"When did you become such a scheming character?" Tokoyo Misao shook his head slightly, then smiled.
"But I like this plan."
Chapter 183 Kenpachi Zaraki and Starrk
Why won't you let me come along?
Rukia Kuchiki, who had become the de facto mistress of the merchant guild, had now changed back into her Shihakushō.
She wore Kenseikan around her neck, which trembled with her angry roars.
Upon learning that Captain-Commander Yamamoto had dispatched Tokoyo Misao to Hueco Mundo for support and a hunting mission.
She changed into her combat gear in an instant, but now she's not letting her come along.
She had no objection to Tokoyo Misao taking Orihime Inoue and Ichigo Kurosaki.
She practically watched these two children grow up; they are both very capable.
But what does it mean if I don't bring myself along?
With a smile, Tokoyo Misao reached out and gently lifted Rukia's chin, slowly leaning her head closer.
Just as they were about to touch, Rukia reached out and stopped her red lips, saying coldly:
"Don't think you can get away with this by using such petty tricks."
She resisted the temptation and did not let the Tokoyo Misao, proactive kiss sway her mind.
To fight side by side, to live and die together—that was her deepest desire.
Seeing that this tactic was not working, Tokoyo Misao thought for a moment and said, "The matter in Hueco Mundo is indeed urgent, but that does not mean that the World of the Living is safe."
Think about it, none of the three Wandenreich knights who came to the World of the Living this time returned, and they may even have the means to detect whether the knights are dead.
If those guys find out, what action will they take?
"Rukia, I built this guild from scratch; it's my foundation. If you don't help me keep an eye on it, I won't trust anyone else."
This wasn't just a perfunctory remark to Rukia; he was now uncertain about the Wandenreich's actions.
Upon hearing this, Rukia frowned, and after a moment sighed:
"I'm not an unreasonable person. If you had told me earlier, I wouldn't have insisted on going with you."
She also understood that Misao's words made a lot of sense.
This time, Ryūken Ishida caused the deaths of two Sternritter, equivalent to two Captain-level.
It would be strange if the Wandenreich didn't react at all.
Although the Visored is helping, they are still outsiders, so they need to leave one of their own people here to keep an eye on things.
Rukia pouted and waved her hand, "Go ahead, I'll take care of things at the merchant guild."
Tokoyo Misao then led his disciple Orihime Inoue and Ichigo Kurosaki to the secret base.
Yasutora Sado and Uryū Ishida originally wanted to join, but this mission wasn't suitable for a group operation.
So they assigned the Visored as Yasutora Sado's mentor to help him improve.
As for Uryū Ishida, his father and grandfather are both formidable figures, so having them personally teach him would be more effective.
Senkaimon, Orihime Inoue was somewhat excited.
She originally wanted to ask Master Misao what was special about Hueco Mundo, what the scenery was like, and so on, but then she suddenly noticed that Ichigo Kurosaki beside her seemed a little nervous.
So she smiled and said to him, "Ichigo, you'd better protect me well!"
Ichigo Kurosaki's eyes widened, and he said earnestly, "Of course! I will definitely protect you!"
His resolute gaze and unwavering posture, as if prepared to risk his life, showed no trace of nervousness.
"Keep up," Tokoyo Misao said.
He discovered that his disciple seemed to have learned, or rather, instinctively mastered, how to control Ichigo Kurosaki.
He was pleased with this, as it proved that his long-standing teachings had been put into practice.
On a sand Hueco Mundo, a door suddenly appeared and opened.
Tokoyo Misao was the first to step out. He scanned his surroundings and found that the area was completely clean, without a single stray bird.
Then, he activated his Eternal Eyes to expand his field of vision, but still couldn't spot a single Void figure.
This situation is a bit strange; there's no reason why there shouldn't be any void within a radius of tens of kilometers.
"Wow, it's so desolate, it looks like a desert." Orihime Inoue reached out and touched her forehead as she looked around.
It must be said that the desolate atmosphere of Hueco Mundo is indeed a unique sight.
At least the two little ones living in the World of the Living have never seen such endless sand dunes and a space filled with pale moonlight.
"Strange, why don't I feel like I'm not hollow?" Ichigo Kurosaki also noticed this problem.
Tokoyo Misao thought for a moment, then took out a strange device from his pocket. The number displayed on it was 100%.
