Soul Society.
Yan Si walked out of Shiba Estate's room and came to the yard.
He raised his head and saw something more in the yard.
That thing was so big that it covered half of the roof.
The barrel is several hundred meters long, with a diameter of at least thirty meters.
The muzzle is pointed upward, aiming at the sky.
The barrel is engraved with fine lines, extending from the bottom of the cannon to the muzzle.
It glowed dimly under the moonlight and looked very powerful.
Kūkaku Shiba stood under the barrel, with his hands on his waist and said excitedly.
"Brother Yan Si, these are our Shiba family fireworks, Flower Crane Cannon!"
She raised her head and looked at the huge cannon barrel.
"And this was researched and developed by me alone. It is much faster than the method recorded by the family before." Then a look of disgust appeared on his face.
"I used to make a huge slingshot, but sometimes it wasn't powerful enough."
According to Kukaku, the previous method of boarding Royal Palace was to use a huge slingshot to launch it.
However, the power is often poorly controlled, and the shot may miss, resulting in the inability to successfully enter.
Yan Si looked up at the barrel.
His eyes looked from the muzzle to the bottom of the cannon, and from the bottom of the cannon to the base.
Those lines are arranged very densely on the cannon body, some are like words, some are like patterns, and some are like symbols.
He unfolded Reishi perception, and those lines began to glow.
It's not really glowing, it's Reishi glowing in his head.
Each pattern is a Reishi array, and each Reishi array is doing something different.
Some are accumulating force, some are guiding, and some are stabilizing space.
He spoke softly, his voice very sincere. "It's really amazing, Kukaku."
Even with his knowledge, he couldn't recognize the effect of these Reishi formations.
It's just that some symbols look like Kidō.
This unique Reishi Formation is one of the heritage of Great Nobles Shiba family.
Kukaku was praised so much that his face was filled with smiles.
Her eyes curled up and the corners of her mouth were raised as she was about to speak.
Suddenly I saw a black figure and ran over excitedly.
"Yoruichi Sister!"
She ran to the black cat that suddenly appeared and squatted down, lifting it up with both hands and holding it in her arms.
"I'm still wondering why Brother Yan Si didn't take you with him for such a big thing."
The black cat's mouth opened, and the voice of Yoruichi came from inside.
"Hahaha, I just went back to get something during this time." Her voice was very brisk. "Thank you, Kukaku." "That's so polite, Sister Yoruichi." Kukaku responded with a smile and hugged the cat tighter.
Yoruichi said nothing and looked at Kukaku.
What Kukaku does is not simple.
Yan Si has made it clear that he is hostile to the Royal Palace. If he does anything outrageous after going up there, then Kukaku will be an accomplice.
Royal Palace is related to Three Realms, and Kukaku can do such a thing. This kind of trust is very rare.
Yoruichi jumped up on Kukaku's shoulders and landed on Yan Si's head. Four paws stepped on the top of his hair and his tail hung down next to his ears.
"Hurry up." Her voice came from above her head. "Hueco Mundo's side shouldn't last long."
Kukaku tilted her head. "Can't it last too long?" she asked, but received no explanation from Yoruichi.
She thought to herself for a moment and then came to her senses.
Yan Si is in the status of Feigning Death, which means that when I went to the Royal Palace this time, I definitely did not discuss it with Captain-General Yamamoto.
If the battle over Hueco Mundo ends and the captains of Thirteen Court Guard Squads come back, things may become very troublesome.
She didn't think about the failure of Soul Society at all, because this time the whole team set off and there was no way they would lose. She took out something from her lower back.
It was a bead with a simple red phoenix painted on it.
She raised the beads in front of Yan Si and explained.
"This is Reishi Core."
"As long as Spiritual Power is poured into it, a protective shield can be formed, and then Flower Crane Cannon can be shot directly into the Royal Palace."
Yan Si took the beads.
The beads are not big and fit in the palm of your hand.
The surface is smooth, and the phoenix is painted very simply, with just a few strokes of outline.
He poured Reishi into it, and Reishi poured out from the palm of his hand and seeped into the surface of the beads.
The beads lit up, and red light shined from inside.
The light began to expand and spread outward from the beads, forming a transparent cover.
The cover was very big, covering Yan Si's entire body. It was very stable, without even a trace of fluctuation. Kukaku's eyes lit up and he spoke in admiration.
"As expected of brother Yan Si, this Reishi's control ability is too strong."
Reishi Core is a prop made by her.
It is said that only Reishi needs to be injected, but it cannot be injected all at once.
Reishi must be controlled rhythmically through the channels in the beads to form such a perfect cover.
After she made it, she tried it many times, but every time she could only get a crooked shape.
Yoruichi lay on Yan Si's head, looked down at the cover, and flicked his tail.
"In other words, the method you Shiba family mastered is just to use violence to break into the Royal Palace?"
She looked at Kukaku with some confusion.
What's the use of cannon shooting? They can all easily use Flash Step to go to the sky, and the speed will definitely be faster.
This bead only forms a cover, so as long as you find a position to break the defense, it will be fine.
Of course, she understood that it was definitely not that simple, but she asked because Kukaku's method seemed a little wrong. Kukaku reached out and scratched her head, inserting her fingers into the roots of her hair, scratching from her forehead to the back of her head.
"That's what it says in the book. Just use shelling and Reishi Core to get up there."
"I haven't mentioned the specific principle."
She responded a little sheepishly.
The current head of the family, Shiba Kaien, is a very lazy person and has not studied home education at all.
Even if she learned it, it was the first time she used it today. She really didn't know what the effect would be.
Yan Si put the cover back, turned the beads in a circle in his palm, nodded slightly and said:
"No, this Reishi Core will definitely work."
Kukaku and Yoruichi turned their heads to look at him at the same time.
"Without the guidance of this bead, I'm afraid we wouldn't even know the location of the Royal Palace."
Next to him stood a hidden figure Aizen.
Aizen has long searched for the specific location of the Royal Palace, but with no results for many years. Finally, it was concluded that Royal Palace is not fixed in the sky of Soul Society, but a special space called Valley Space, just like the space of Wandenreich.
If you want to enter, either the people inside will open the space, just as Captain Twelfth Division Kirio Hikifune was promoted many years ago.
Or you must have a key that can open the space, Ōken.
That's why Aizen went to Hueco Mundo to get so many things.
Now those strange Reishi arrays on the Reishi Core in his hand are the key to finding the position of the Royal Palace and opening up the space.
"Let's go." He put the beads into his cuffs, reached out and gently patted Yoruichi lying on his head.
His eyes swept over Kukaku and Aizen who was standing there with his hands in his pockets.
Sweeping the Reishi in the air, the ever-present Chiziro Kenpachi.
Finally, it fell on Kukaku's face and spoke with a smile.
"Sorry to trouble you, Kukaku."
Kukaku placed his left hand on his hips, extended his right thumb to his chest, and shouted loudly.
"Leave it to me, brother Yan Si!" Yan Si nodded with a gentle smile, and then stepped into the interior of Flower Crane Cannon.
Inject Reishi to form a protective shield and shout to the outside:
"Ready."
Kukaku pulled off the white spiritual cloth tied to his forehead.
The strip of cloth was very long. She flung it out in her hand and wrapped it around her right arm, tightly from the wrist to the elbow.
She took a deep breath and her chest puffed up.
His fists collided in front of his chest, making a banging sound.
She spread her legs and raised her right fist high.
"The other side!"
"The copper-colored Desire wants to get thirty-six degrees of control!"
Reishi at the base of the gun barrel began to burst out.
Those Reishi poured out of the base, like water or mist, surging around the barrel. The temperature of the base increased sharply, the air was distorted, and the ground was hot.
"Seventy-two pairs of illusions, thirteen pairs of horns and flutes, the ape's right hand grasps the stars!"
"Embracing the twenty-five round sun, the cradle of sand is bleeding!"
The temperature of the base is already very high, so high that the moisture in the air is evaporated. This is preheating.
Kukaku's right fist is shaking.
It wasn't fear, it was Reishi that was rushing up her arm.
Those Reishi were pulled out of the base and climbed up along the white cloth wrapped around her arm.
She continued singing.
"The fate of three birds and the fate of four dragons, there is no way out in five directions and no return for six miles!"
Flames began to appear on her right arm.
It didn't burn from the cloth, it oozed from the skin.
Those flames are orange-red, beating on the arms and wrapping around the fists. "The wind of the sky, the orangutan, the spoon, the elm stick, the plan of a thousand ashes and a thousand wisdoms and white clouds!"
The flames grew larger, spreading from the fist to the forearm, and from the forearm to the elbow.
The temperature of the flame was so high that the air around her was distorting.
"Leave towards the twilight and avoid the fiery shadow!"
Her right arm was completely covered in flames
. The temperature of the flame, in terms of temperature alone, is not even worse than Ryūjin Jakka.
Of course, it refers to the Shikai state.
She aimed her fist at the base and knocked it down.
"No. 2 Flower Crane Shooting Method·Kukizaki!"
Rumble!
Flames are directed from her arms into the base.
Those Reishi arrays lit up, starting from the base and climbing up the barrel. Where the Reishi array passed by, the barrel was vibrating, the air was vibrating, and the whole house was shaking. The flames wrapped around the barrel of the cannon from the bottom, one circle, two circles, three circles, all the way to the muzzle.
The muzzle was lit.
That bright light is not a flame, it is Reishi.
It is the light that explodes at the muzzle of the cannon after the Reishi array has accumulated all its power.
The light was so bright that it illuminated the entire yard white.
Boom!
A loud noise exploded at Soul Society.
The sound was so loud that the Seireitei ground shook, Rukongai people raised their heads, and the clouds were shaken away.
A round Reishi ball shot out from the muzzle.
The ball is not big, just big enough to wrap a person inside.
It dragged a long tail flame and sprinted towards the sky of Seireitei.
The tail flame was orange-red, drawing an arc in the night sky. Poof!
Kukaku sat down.
She sat on the ground, gasping for air, her chest heaving violently.
I raised my head and watched the Reishi ball flying higher and higher, flying farther and farther, turning into a small dot, and finally disappeared.
she said softly.
"Yan Si brother."
"I hope you can really change Three Realms."
Reishi Core internal.
The ten-meter-large Reishi shield isolates everything outside.
The cover wall is very thin and so transparent that it is almost invisible. Only the occasional shimmer when Reishi flows can make people aware of its existence.
The light slid through the cover wall and fell on Yan Si's face.
Yan Si looked down at the bead in his hand. The bead lit up in his palm, and red light came out from inside, connecting with the color of the wall.
His fingers move on the beads. Those Reishi arrays require precise Spiritual Power input to activate. The input rhythm cannot be fast or slow, and the intensity cannot be high or low.
His eyes were staring at the beads, with the red light reflected in his pupils.
Yoruichi lay on his head, with four paws on the top of his hair, and his tail hanging next to his ears.
Her body was very light, so light that it was almost weightless. Her golden eyes swept around inside the cover, from left to right, from front to back, from Yan Si's face to the edge of the cover wall.
She felt something was wrong, there was something else in the cover.
It's not Reishi, it's not air, it's human breath.
She could feel it, right next to her, very close.
Her tail stood up, her pupils shrank, and she suddenly opened her mouth and spoke softly.
"Chiziro Kenpachi."
"Do you really think you're going up there?"
As the words fell, the air in the hood began to move. It wasn't the wind, but something was taking shape.
Those Reishi were pulled out of the air, gathered together, and condensed into human form.
From transparent to translucent, from translucent to solid.
Chiziro Kenpachi stood there, wearing white clothes, with no expression on his face.
He raised his head, looked at the black cat lying on Yan Si's head, and responded softly.
"Of course."
Yoruichi breathed a sigh of relief.
Her tail was down and her paws were loosened a bit.
Sure enough, I guessed it right, there are others here.
But she still felt something was wrong.
Chiziro Kenpachi has come out, but the feeling of someone standing beside me is still there.
Her brows furrowed and her ears twitched. Chiziro Kenpachi turned her head, looked at the empty wall opposite, and said calmly with a cold face.
"Do you still simply want to become a god and rule Three Realms?"
"Aizen."
Yoruichi's body suddenly arched up.
Her claws dug into Yan Si's hair, her tail exploded, the hair on her back stood up, her pupils shrank into a thin slit, and her mouth opened, revealing her fangs.
Are you kidding--Aizen That guy is here too?
She stepped hard on Yan Si's head twice with her claws.
This guy actually brought Soul Society traitor Aizen to the Royal Palace without saying a word to her!
In her heart, Aizen is a dangerous person.
Regardless of his strength, means, mentality, and his goal of being in the sky, it means that he will do whatever it takes.
The space over there was opened by a hand.
The hand stretched out from the air, with long fingers and neatly manicured nails. He opened the space like a curtain, revealing the person behind.
Aizen stood there with one hand in his pocket and a gentle smile on his face, and responded.
"Of course."
He looked at Yan Si who was concentrating on operating Reishi Core and continued.
"This was the goal set from the beginning."
"However, the direction of handling changed after the rule."
I used to just want to redefine Three Realms, but now I want to lead Three Realms towards the unknown.
The purpose has fundamentally changed.
Chiziro Kenpachi looked at him.
The face was still expressionless, but something was moving in the eyes.
"Really? Even Soul King can't sit firmly in that position."
When Soul King told Yan Si Hell's situation before, he used Reishi vibrations in the air to communicate. At that time, Chiziro Kenpachi, after helping to hide Yan Si's death, asked Amatsuyu Takuru to follow him, and naturally he heard it.
After hearing those words, he once again lamented the greatness of Soul King, but at the same time he also recognized the idea of Yan Si.
If this continues, Three Realms will be swallowed up by Hell sooner or later.
And now Soul Society can be said to be at its strongest. In this case, why should these issues continue to be postponed.
Wouldn't it be better to leave it to them?
If it can't be solved, it's just the difference between dying early and dying late.
He appeared this time with the intention of helping Yan Si achieve his goal, and then attack Hell together.
Only in this way can we live up to this life.
Aizen heard his words and just responded with a smile.
"I am not Soul King."
Very simple words, but they contain extremely powerful confidence.
The hood became quiet, no one spoke. There was only the sound of Reishi flowing, very light, like wind blowing across the water.
After a while, Yoruichi suddenly spoke.
"There are only four of us."
"Squad Zero There are five of them."
She scanned Aizen and Chiziro Kenpachi.
"How are you going to distribute your opponents?"
She jumped from Yan Si's head and landed on his shoulders.
Four paws stepped on Captain's Haori, and its tail wrapped around his neck.
"My family's records, Eastern Divine General, Squad Zero first officer, Hot Spring Demon Tenjirō Kirinji."
"He is a Flash Step very scary guy."
"Leave him to me to deal with."
This time she found a lot of Heavenly Armament from the Shihoin Clan, specifically targeting Tenjirō Kirinji. Not to mention a complete victory, at least she definitely won't lose.
After selecting her opponent, she looked at Chiziro Kenpachi.
"You all observed it last time when Yan Si made a big fuss about the Royal Palace."
"Who are you going to fight?"
Chiziro Kenpachi responded calmly.
"Southern Divine General, Squad Zero second officer, Valley King Hikifune Kirio."
"I'll beat her."
Hikifune Kirio has the shortest reign among Squad Zero, which is less than two hundred years.
However, she was once the captain of Twelfth Division, and her period was actually similar to that of Chiziro Kenpachi.
If his abilities don't evolve, he really won't be Chiziro Kenpachi's opponent.
Yoruichi nodded to express his understanding.
She turned to Aizen, staring at him with her golden eyes. Aizen put his hands in his pockets, with a gentle smile on his face.
He said nothing and had no idea of choosing an opponent.
Yan Si suddenly spoke.
His eyes were still staring at the beads and his fingers were still moving.
"Brother Aizen."
"You go deal with leader Squad Zero, whose real name is Monk Ichibē Hyōsube."
"How about leaving the remaining two to me?"
Aizen turned his head and faced Yan Si with the corners of his mouth raised.
"Oh?"
"Is that really possible?"
Yan Si nodded.
He pressed his fingers on the beads, and the color of the wall became a little darker. "If you want to achieve your goal, Western Divine General, Squad Zero Third Official, Sword God Ōetsu Nimaiya and the Northern God General, Squad Zero Fourth Officer, Great Weave Guard Senjumaru Shutara are not enough."
The purpose he mentioned was not the purpose of Aizen standing in the sky, but the fact that the other party wanted to use Hogyoku to evolve.
Now he and Aizen are both stuck at the last step, and both need to activate their fear of death in order to complete the final breakthrough.
But the strength of the two of them is too strong, even if they face Captain-General Yamamoto and Yhwach, they may not lose.
As for Squad Zero and Four Divine Generals, to be honest, there is a high probability that it will not inspire instinct.
But Ichibē Hyōsube is completely different.
This guy was born in the world of chaos together with Soul King, watched Soul King divide Three Realms, and then personally named everything in Soul Society.
I really don't know how strong it is.
Last time Yan Si rushed over like a king, and with the cooperation of Aizen, he just bypassed it.
Of course, his current strength is much stronger than when he was in the Wang posture.
In other words, this time in the Royal Palace, there is someone who can really pose a fatal threat to Yan Si and Aizen.
Apart from Soul King, there was only Ichibē Hyōsube. Aizen still kept smiling, nodded slightly and spoke.
"Brother Yan Si, if I complete my evolution first, I won't deliberately let loose when I attack you."
Now the two are evenly matched, but if Aizen is the first to complete the breakthrough, it will definitely suppress Yan Si.
Yan Si responded calmly.
"That's what happens later, isn't it?"
He raised his head and looked diagonally upward.
The bead lit up in his palm, and the color of the covering wall turned deep red.
He spoke softly:
"We're here, ready to attack."
The beads in his hand were spinning rapidly.
Those Reishi arrays lit up in the beads, and the red light flowed from the cover wall, from the bottom to the top, and from the top to the bottom.
The cover began to accelerate, and those Reishi formations released all their accumulated power. The cover shot out like arrows, breaking through the clouds, breaking through the air, breaking through the space. The clouds in front were torn apart.
Those clouds were very thick and dense, glowing white in the moonlight.
When the cover hits it, there is no sound or vibration, it just goes through.
Like a stone smashed into the water, the clouds spread around the cover, rolled into a whirlpool, and were left behind.
Something broke through.
The outside of the wall changed. Light came from all directions. It was not the light of the sun, but the light of Reishi.
Those lights are very bright and white, spreading evenly in every inch of space, with no shadows or dark corners.
Everyone looked forward.
Five halls stand in the sky.
The one at the front is very big, bigger than the four at the back combined. It has white walls, a golden roof, and fine lines carved on the pillars.
The next four buildings were Little Ichi, but each one was taller than any building he had ever seen.
They float in the air, without foundation or support, just hanging. Behind the five halls, a huge pillar-shaped building stands there.
That's Palace from Soul King.
Yan Si casually threw Reishi Core in his hand towards the back.
The beads passed through the cover wall, like being spit out of water, drawing an arc in the air, then breaking through the space and disappearing.
When Reishi Core broke through the space of the Royal Palace and returned to the sky of Soul Society, a figure rushed over quickly.
His speed was so fast that the air drew a white trail behind him, and his hand reached out to catch the bead the moment it fell.
Urahara Kisuke looked at the beads in his hand.
Red light leaked from the fingers and shone on his face.
The corners of his mouth turned up and his eyes lit up.
"Ahaha!"
"Yan Si brother really did it."
He held the beads tightly and slowly injected Reishi. Those Reishi poured out from his palm and seeped into the beads.
The light of the beads changes from red to orange, from orange to gold.
He stared at the bead and pressed his fingers on it.
After a moment, the hood took shape on his body.
Not crooked, not twisted, just as round as the one he had seen before.
Urahara Kisuke stood in the hood, looking down at Soul Society at his feet.
Seireitei is far away, Rukongai is far away, those buildings can no longer be seen clearly, only the lights are still on.
He raised his head and looked at the empty sky above his head.
Take a deep breath.
The hood begins to rise.
