"Buzz...!!!"
A thunderclap suddenly sounded from the ground, the sound echoing continuously in the sky above Hueco Mundo. Some low-level Hollows, upon hearing this sound, lay on the ground convulsing and foaming at the mouth, while others simply vanished into thin air. The high-level Hollows, on the other hand, had solemn expressions, and some were trembling incessantly.
Hueco Mundo, the King of Baraggan, frowned. Could it be that some ancient demon had broken its seal and reappeared? There seemed to be some bad luck. Of course, Baraggan wasn't the only one; the other Baraggan had similar thoughts. An unknown ancient demon had broken its seal and emerged; Hueco Mundo was in danger.
Chapter Twenty-Four: Changes
The clouds gathered in the sky were shattered by White-Clad Chen Fan's roar, spreading outwards to reveal the blood-red moonlight. The sky above the Forest of Menos where Chen Fan and the others were located was directly shattered, and the blood-red moonlight shone on the group.
Looking at the blood-red moonlight in the sky, Yoruichi suddenly remembered something. Decades ago, when Chen Fan was still in Soul Society, this celestial phenomenon suddenly appeared, causing widespread panic. However, it was eventually forgotten. The entire Seireitei was on high alert back then, but it all became a joke.
Having spent so many years in Hueco Mundo, Yoruichi had almost forgotten everything, but seeing Yoruichi this time finally made her understand what that blood-red moonlight represented. That must have been when Chen Fan truly obtained his Zanpakuto Shikai. Just who is her man? How could obtaining Shikai trigger a celestial phenomenon, and a blood-red one at that? This signifies the birth of something truly terrifying!
In a certain city in the Human World
Two Shinigami walked down the street. They belonged to the 13th Division and were sent to guard the Shinigami Human World. One was a young man, and the other was a middle-aged man. This time, the middle-aged man was leading the young man on patrol in the Human World. First missions always require an experienced elder to lead them.
"I really don't know what's wrong with these Hollows. They haven't attacked the Human World much in the last few decades! Going to the mortal Human World for business has become a cushy job, huh?" The middle-aged Shinigami said, looking at the harmonious scene of people coming and going around him.
"Yes, senior! These Human World few years, not only the human world but also the Soul Society has been so peaceful. I don't know why, it's like the calm before the storm!" the young Shinigami echoed, perhaps out of fear or perhaps because he truly sensed something.
"Don't say that. Peace is a blessing. In a few days, after my mission in the Human World ends, I'll have a month-long vacation. My wife and children at home are waiting for me to come back," the middle-aged Shinigami said with a smile.
"Yes..."
"Buzz..." Suddenly, the air began to vibrate, and a huge Garganta appeared in the sky. They had just been talking about no Hollows and no invasion, and now it had appeared. What a jinx! The two Shinigami, who had never seen such a large Garganta before, were dumbfounded.
"Prepare for battle!" the man addressed as "senpai" shouted, drawing his Zanpakuto. He had experience fighting Hollows and reacted quickly.
"Yes, senior!" The younger Shinigami also drew his Zanpakuto and assumed a fighting stance;
But the two were quickly dumbfounded again, as a large amount of void energy surged from the Garganta, far beyond their ability to withstand.
"Run! Go contact the captain and report the situation in the Human World! Hurry!" The middle-aged Shinigami shouted anxiously to the younger Shinigami, while he himself stood firmly in place, sword raised.
"But senior!" the young Shinigami cried out anxiously;
"What are you dawdling for! If you don't leave now, it'll be too late! Do you want me to die here for nothing?" The middle-aged Shinigami shoved the young Shinigami, who fell to the ground. By the time he turned around, it was too late.
A swarm of Hollows rushed towards them. "Aaaaaaahhhhh..." the two Shinigami screamed in terror.
But after they shouted, they realized that these phantoms didn't seem to intend to eat them; instead, they were running away frantically, as if they were fleeing for their lives.
The two quickly hid in a gap in a nearby building and began contacting Soul Society report what they had seen.
Meanwhile, the same thing happened in Soul Society. Suddenly, a large number of Hollows appeared. However, because the number of both sides was too large, they had not yet started fighting. They were staring at each other, as if even the slightest disruption would escalate into a full-scale war between Hueco Mundo and the Shinigami.
"What's going on?!" Everyone in Soul Society was thinking about this. All the captains of Soul Society had gathered here. This was a scene that Soul Society hadn't seen in hundreds of years. Had Hueco Mundo launched a full-scale attack on the Shinigami? But it didn't seem like it.
"Bang!" Genryusai Yamamoto struck the ground and said, "Why have you invaded Soul Society? Do you intend to wage a full-scale war?" As he finished speaking, a hint of killing intent flickered in his left eye. Genryusai Yamamoto, a man who had slaughtered countless people, naturally commanded immense authority.
"Shinigami! We have no intention of fighting you," one of the top Acumen races said.
"Then what brings you to Soul Society?!"
"We're just hiding for a while. It seems a powerful demon that's been sealed away for ten thousand years has broken free of its seal in Hueco Mundo. That guy is terrifying; we had no choice but to flee. We're just waiting here to lay low for a bit," Adjuchas said.
The captains of Soul Society exchanged bewildered glances. They hadn't expected such a dangerous figure to appear in Hueco Mundo. If that was the case, Soul Society seemed to be in danger as well. Should they fight these Hollows? All eyes turned to Genryusai Yamamoto, the Captain-General. Only he could make such an important decision.
