Chapter 73

Unable to enter the Seireitei through the Dao Gate, Ichigo Kurosaki chose to force their way in from the sky!

As Aizen said, the battles of Bleach are battles of Reiatsu. Although the Seireitei is protected by a barrier, the barrier is also composed of Reishi. If a stronger spiritual force is used to bombard the barrier, it is not impossible to break it.

The Shiba clan, once one of the Five Noble Clans, possessed a special technique that allowed them to create projectiles capable of breaking through barriers.

Ichigo Kurosaki and his group used this special cannonball to successfully open a breach in the barrier, and then forced their way into the Seireitei. Li Yue followed them into the Seireitei.

"Finally, we're in."

The impact of the shells caused everyone to scatter after entering the Seireitei. Li Yue landed alone, which was intentional on his part. He wouldn't follow the others, otherwise he would have to hold back.

After landing, Li Yue quickly sensed a lot of Reiatsu rapidly approaching, but Li Yue had no intention of taking action. Instead, she suppressed her spiritual power, making herself disappear from the senses of the Bleach's Reiatsu, and then Flash Step vanished from her spot using Shunpo.

When the Bleach arrived, they looked at the empty ground and question marks appeared above their heads.

"What's going on? There's nothing there?"

"There's no body, and no other traces, which means the other party isn't dead and is quite strong. Quick, spread out and search!"

The Bleach, seeing the intact ground, realized the enemy might be stronger than they had imagined, and immediately dispatched themselves to carry out missions.

As Ichigo Kurosaki followed them in, they began to encounter Bleach one by one, either engaging in combat or fleeing.

After indulging in a fantasy, Li Yue began to stroll Yuyuko through the Seireitei.

In his perception, apart from Uryu Ishida and Orihime Inoue, the rest of the people were basically already engaged in battle, but this had nothing to do with Li Yue. They would not die; the battle was a trial for them to consider their future.

After confirming that everyone was safe and sound for the time being, Li Yue began to focus on her own tasks.

He went straight to the barracks of the Third Division. Since Ichigamaru was punished with confinement, he did not go out immediately, but rested in his own barracks. As for the Third Division's mission as a support division, he handed it over to the Vice-Captain to lead the team members to carry it out.

"It's so relaxing. Everyone else is busy, but I can leisurely drink tea like this."

Gin Ichimaru sat in the attic of the Third Division Captain's office, leaning against the window, drinking tea and watching the lively Seireitei with his habitual fox-like smile on his face.

"Gin Ichimaru, you seem to be in a very good mood."

Li Yue appeared out of nowhere behind Gin Ichimaru and suddenly spoke, startling Gin Ichimaru so much that he almost dropped the teacup in his hand.

"I'm sorry, Gin Ichimaru, I startled you."

Li Yue knelt down on one knee and immediately apologized.

"Indeed, Li Yue-kun's appearance was really strange; I didn't notice her at all."

"That's a new ability I got from Aizen. It allows me to hide my form so that others can't see me at all."

Li Yue explained to Gin Ichimaru as if he were a subordinate reporting to a superior.

"Oh? Is this the new power you gained during your disappearance?"

"Yes, during this period of time, while I was working for Aizen, I was also acting as Aizen test subject, allowing him to experiment on me."

"What did you say?"

Gin Ichimaru looked at Li Yue in surprise. This junior from the future had actually become Aizen's test subject?

What did he do to you?

"Don't rush, Lord Yin. Do you remember those experimental subjects we saw in the Aizen laboratory before?"

"You mean that so-called Elemental Power?"

Gin Ichimaru recalled that incomprehensible power.

"That's right, that's power from the future. In the future, Yhwach devoured the Soul King and became the new Reishi King. If we continue down the path of Reishi, we will definitely not be able to defeat Yhwach. So we went beyond the world and retrieved the Forbidden Knowledge called Elemental Power."

Li Yue's expression was solemn.

"But this power, just as you saw, Lord Gin, directly turns souls into all sorts of monsters. Our researchers can't change this either. When I returned to this point in time, Captain Rangiku asked me to bring back Forbidden Knowledge about Elemental Power. She thought that Aizen, a genius in research, might be able to figure out what this Elemental Power is all about."

"Because my combat strength is weak, if I can figure out the Elemental Power, I might be able to enhance my combat ability and thus increase the probability of the plan succeeding."

"I see, no wonder I couldn't understand that thing."

Although Gin Ichimaru guessed that it was something only Li Yue and Aizen understood, he did not expect that it was something from outside the world.

"With Aizen's help, I obtained the power of the Dendro element allows me to cast illusions."

"Oh? To what extent exactly can it be done?"

Gin Ichimaru asked curiously.

"Probably similar to Kyōka Suigetsu."

???

Gin Ichimaru was momentarily stunned.

What are you talking about? Something like Kyōka Suigetsu?

Are you serious?

"From the perspective of illusion, the prerequisite for achieving Complete Hypnosis like 'Kyōka Suigetsu' is that my Reiatsu can keep up."

With that explained, Gin Ichimaru understood. His abilities were similar to Kyōka Suigetsu, but Reiatsu was fundamental. If Reiatsu couldn't keep up, then no function would be useful. After all, not everyone had the abnormal Reiatsu of Aizen.

Speaking of Aizen, Gin Ichimaru thought of the current rumors about him. Rumors of him toying with many women had already begun to circulate. When Gin Ichimaru heard this, he almost burst out laughing. It was just too funny. Having followed Aizen for hundreds of years, he had never seen Aizen so embarrassed.

"Speaking of Li Yue-kun, besides claiming to be Aizen's son and coming to find Aizen, do you have any other plans?"

Gin Ichimaru is now very interested in Li Yue's plan. He wants to know what other fun things are going to happen so that he can join in and find some fun for Aizen.

This Third Division Captain, who looks like a fox and always has a smile on his face, seems to be turning into a fun-loving person.

Li Yue, on the other hand, gave a mysterious smile.

"Other arrangements are naturally in place."

"For example?"

For example...

Li Yue whispered her plan, and Gin Ichimaru opened Li Yue eyes wide in shock after hearing it.

"Li Yue-kun, aren't you afraid of being killed by Aizen?"

124. Aizen is dead, begin the operation!

The chaos in Seireitei continues, with battles erupting in all directions due to the invasion of the Intruders Seireitei.

However, these battles are relatively minor compared to the entire Seireitei. No Captain level have been deployed yet, and not even Vice-Captain has made a move.

However, this time, the Intruders into the Seireitei also surprised the Bleach.

Because the Third Seat of the Eleventh Division was defeated, as was the Fifth Seat of the Eleventh Division.

It's important to understand that the Eleventh Division is a combat-oriented division, a pure martial arts faction, and ostensibly the strongest of the Gotei 13. The Third Seat of the Eleventh Division would even be considered Vice-Captain in other divisions.

This guy was defeated on the very first day, which means the enemy was at least Vice-Captain level guy.

This kind of enemy might not be much to a captain with top-tier combat power, but for ordinary Bleach and Seated Officer, the level of danger is completely different.

As a result, the tension within the Seireitei has increased significantly, and the combat power of Captain level has finally begun to stir.

Kenpachi Zaraki, the captain of the Eleventh Division who loves fighting, set out on the first day. However, he has no sense of direction, and his beloved Vice-Captain is a little girl who gives him random directions. As a result, he wandered Seireitei all day without seeing a single Intruders.

The other team leaders also joined in, because this chaos couldn't last too long; continuing like this wasn't a solution.

As the captain left the field, the situation began to change.

First, there's Yasutora Sado. During his adventure, he encountered the Eighth Division Captain, Shunsui Kyoraku. Among the Bleach captains, besides Captain Commander Yamamoto and Retsu Unohana of the Fourth Division, he is the oldest serving captain. He could easily defeat Chad with one hand, so Chad was defeated and captured.

However, among the Intruders, only Ichigo Kurosaki and Ganju Shiba are still openly active, because they have been discovered. As for both Yoruichi and Li Yue, although they entered Seireitei, they have not been discovered by anyone.

After landing, Black Cat Yoruichi immediately hid, taking advantage of her cat-like nature, while Li Yue had activated her illusion invisibility from the beginning and was also not discovered by anyone.

Uryu Ishida and Orihime Inoue were different. They had been lying in wait, and later they knocked out two weaker support Bleach, put on Shinigami uniform, and disguised themselves as locals to wander around the Seireitei. Unfortunately, the place was too big for them, and they didn't know the way, so they were always lost.

In this situation, something extraordinary happened.

The Fifth Division Captain, Aizen Sousuke, was found dead by his own Zanpakuto. His entire body was even nailed to a high wall as a public spectacle using his Kyōka Suigetsu.

Captain Aizen, who was being discussed just two days ago for secretly causing a death outside, was suddenly killed in the blink of an eye. This reversal shocked the entire Seireitei!

It has been a century since the last Captain level figure died, and now, a century later, another major event has occurred: the death of Captain level figure!

Fifth Division Vice-Captain Momo Hinamori went berserk on the spot. However, because the Third Division Captain was in confinement and did not appear at the scene, Momo Hinamori did not draw her Zanpakuto at the Third Division Captain Gin Ichimaru, and therefore was not arrested as in the original storyline.

She just clutched her head and screamed.

However, Aizen's death still had a huge impact on her. She had just gotten the answer she wanted from Aizen and was able to let go of the fact that Aizen had a son. She had even prepared herself to get along well with Aizen's son in the future. But then Captain Aizen died, which she simply couldn't accept!

Correspondingly, the entire Seireitei became even more tense.

Because, before Captain Aizen's death was discovered, the Sixth Division Vice-Captain, Renji Abarai, had also been defeated.

With the Vice-Captain and Captain level falling one after another, the situation was becoming serious.

Captain Renji Abarai was defeated, and Captain Aizen was even killed?

At least Vice-Captain Renji Abarai knew for certain that he was defeated by the Intruders, but what about Captain Aizen? And who killed him?

The Bleach's first suspicion was that of the Intruders who defeated Captain Renji Abarai, because this Intruders who defeated Captain Renji Abarai was the same guy who had previously defeated the Eleventh Division's Third Seat, Ikkaku Madarame. Having defeated two Vice-Captain in a row, he should be capable of fighting a captain.

Another suspect is Captain Aizen's son. Even Gin Ichimaru, the Third Division Captain, couldn't defeat Captain Aizen's son. He might also be able to kill Aizen. After all, Aizen was killed by his own Kyōka Suigetsu. To do that, either the other party is an acquaintance of Captain Aizen, or the other party is much stronger than Captain Aizen, leaving Aizen powerless. Obviously, the possibility of an acquaintance is higher.

There's a high possibility that he's Captain Aizen's illegitimate son!

The Vice-Captain gathered together to discuss the events that had occurred in the Seireitei during this period.

Everything was peaceful before, but ever since the Intruders invaded Soul Society, everything has become chaotic.

"The Seireitei is really dangerous right now."

In the Third Division barracks, Gin Ichimaru, still under house arrest, was leisurely drinking tea. Aizen hadn't come to find him, and his confinement hadn't ended, so he might as well stay in the barracks. Anyway, it wasn't his turn to appear yet.

Li Yue, who was being discussed by the Bleach, was naturally staying here as well. For the past two days, he had been enjoying himself in the room of the Third Division Captain, while everyone else outside was fighting desperately, highlighting the huge gap between them.

"Yes, the Seireitei is really dangerous right now."

Looking at Li Yue, who was completely unconcerned about his image as if he were at home, Gin Ichimaru couldn't help but twitch his lips. Although he didn't mind this junior resting here, did he have to adapt so perfectly?

"Speaking of Li Yue-kun, don't you need to start making arrangements for your plans?"

"The time hasn't come yet, so we should at least wait until the time comes before making arrangements. After all, there's no point in making arrangements in advance, is there?"

"Captain Aizen is already dead, isn't it time yet?"

"Of course not. He just died, and his body has only just arrived at the Fourth Division. The Fourth Division Captain will definitely study it carefully. I will only make my move after the study is completed and his body is sealed up."

"I see. Then Li Yue-kun, you'd better act sooner rather than later."

"Oh?"

Li Yue looked at Gin Ichimaru with curiosity.

"Why?"

"Although my squad is the Third Division, the Fourth Division n't next to mine. It takes some time to get there from here. Also, my Vice-Captain has already arrived, so my confinement should end ahead of schedule."

Sensing the familiar Reiatsu rapidly approaching, Gin Ichimaru reminded Li Yue.

"I see. Since Gin Ichimaru is going out to work, I'll stretch my legs a bit beforehand."

Li Yue got up from the ground and stretched her body.

"See you later."

The green light slowly enveloped Li Yue's body, and she disappeared from the spot.

Gin Ichimaru watched the entire process of Li Yue's disappearance and couldn't help but sigh.

"That's quite an impressive ability."

125. Godfather, leave everything else to me!

Aizen is a very meticulous and confident person. He plans everything he does very carefully. His powerful strength, combined with the powerful hypnotic ability of Kyōka Suigetsu, allows him to quickly identify and fix any flaws in his plans.

But what if someone with the same abilities as Aizen appears and disrupts his plans?

The answer is that Aizen's Kyōka Suigetsu effect will be greatly reduced!

Leaving the Third Division's barracks, Li Yue was enveloped in illusions, concealing his Reiatsu, and moved within the Seireitei in the direction indicated by Gin Ichimaru.

As Li Yue moved, he didn't forget to observe the shadow of the Seireitei. The Bleach probably never imagined that this seemingly harmless natural phenomenon actually concealed a vast, Wandenreich, and their greatest nemesis from a thousand years ago was now watching them from the shadows.

It's even possible that Li Yue is keeping an eye on the current Wandenreich.
