Routine Garrisoning

"Hollows, Bleach, humans, you're very well prepared." Gerard pointed at the heads from left to right. The appearance of Yammy and Jinta really surprised him. "When did the Gotei 13 learn to cooperate with Hollows?"

"Isn't this all your doing? If you hadn't wanted to destroy the Three Worlds..." Kyōraku's voice suddenly appeared in front of Gerard, Katen Kyōkotsu slashed down from above, signaling the start of the attack, "Why would we need to maintain a permanent garrison!"

With a clang, Gerard easily blocked Kyōraku's attack with his sword and shield. He was also dual-wielding, so dealing with Kyōraku was no problem for him at all.

Even so, Gerard only managed to block two swords. Behind him, Yammy and Jinta appeared simultaneously, each wielding their Zanpakuto to slash at Gerard.

The Rukongai, where the Quincy army first appeared, gradually became empty as the Ukitake Quincy. Ukitake walked down from the sky step by step, his expression more serious than ever before.

"From the moment I learned of your existence, I volunteered to be your opponent." Ukitake slowly closed the Impermanence Diagram. In the time that followed, he no longer had the energy to pay attention to the battlefields of others.

"Eh? Me?" In the center of Rukongai, the tall, thin, dark- Quincy Nadjakup stood with an air of pride, clasping his hands together and striking a pose. "Since you respect me so much, I, Najakup, Najakup..."

Nanana Nadjakup hadn't finished speaking when he was interrupted by a forceful voice, "Get out!"

Nadjakup quickly looked around, shouting, "Who! Who dares to interrupt me!"

A strong killing intent surged through Nadjakup's back. He turned around and looked down to see a Quincy, only half his height, wearing a cloak Quincy staring intently at him. The hood obscured the other's face, but Nadjakup could still feel the terrifying killing intent emanating from the deep darkness.

"Sorry, I almost forgot."

Ukitake wiped the sweat from his brow, opened the Impermanence Diagram, randomly found a secluded spot, and tossed Nadjakup out. Due to the large number of people mobilized, he momentarily overlooked Nadjakup, an enemy who posed little threat.

Nadjakup is very powerful. His lack of awareness with the Saint Letters U was enough to paralyze even a spiritual pressure powerhouse like Aizen. However, if someone had known about him and was on guard, they wouldn't have fallen for his attacks so easily.

Therefore, Nadjakup's threat level was not high in Ukitake, which is why he overlooked Nadjakup.

Now that the unrelated personnel have been teleported away, only Ukitake and that short Quincy remain in Rukongai.

"Isn't it time to show your true colors, Pernida Pakaja, or should I call you, the Left Hand of the Soul King?" Ukitake said, pointing at the diminutive Pernida.

"My name is Pernida Pakaja, and I am a Quincy..."

Pernida's voice was very soft; even Ukitake and listened carefully, he couldn't hear it clearly. The next moment Ukitake, Pernida disappeared from Ukitake's sight and reappeared behind him in an instant, and the battle immediately began.

In the center of Seireitei, there is an elevator that goes straight to the ceiling. Riruka and Yukio are here. This elevator can take you directly from Seireitei to the Soul King Palace. It was created by the Technology Development Agency after learning about the Fullbring abilities of these two.

Riruka and Yukio naturally became the elevator's maintenance personnel, spending a few days each month in Seireitei specifically to check on the elevator's operation.

After the elevator that led directly to the Soul King Palace was built, it was only used twice, both times to transport Kyōraku to the Soul King to report for duty. Ever since they learned that the Soul King was someone they couldn't communicate with, no one else had any curiosity about the Soul King Palace.

Now that a Level 1 alarm has been sounded in Soul Society, Riruka and Yukio are required to shut down the elevator leading to the Soul King Palace to prevent villains from using it to reach the Soul King Palace directly.

"Honestly, why do those Quincy have to come and fight all of a sudden?" Riruka pouted, using her toy gun to absorb the spiritual pressure related to her in the elevator.

Yukio had it even easier; he only needed to operate the computer on his arm a few times, and the spiritual pressure related to him would return to his body.

Once the elevator loses the spiritual pressure catalyzing these two individuals, it will come to a standstill.

"Stop complaining, it'll be troublesome if that strong guy comes this way." Yukio worked quickly and finished her work in no time.

"I know, it's just that we happen to be stationed in Soul Society. If it were Ginjo and the others, I wonder what the Research and Development Agency could do?" Riruka's hands didn't stop moving.

"They'll probably just blow up this elevator then, right?" Yukio guessed.

"Blow it up? It took the two of us a lot of effort to do this!" Riruka exclaimed anxiously after absorbing the spiritual pressure.

"There's nothing we can do about it." Yukio Fullbring, and a small black room enveloped the two of them. They began to flee for their lives. "Unless you stay in Soul Society for years to come."

Riruka immediately deflated. "Let's forget about it. Soul Society is great in every way, but its technology is still inferior to the World of the Living. Until then, let's continue with the routine stationing work as Tsuna, taking turns."

The plan for permanent deployment in the Three Worlds was proposed by Urahara Kisuke. Given that it was foreseeable that the Quincy might attack the Three Worlds, he suggested that there must be four powers— Bleach, Hollows, Fullbring, and Quincy —in order to deal with various emergencies, whether in the World of the Living, Hueco Mundo, or Soul Society.

Although the Quincy clan was not many in number, after considering the overall situation, the Kurosaki Residence and Ishida Residence also took the initiative to participate in the operation. Later, Tsuna changed the plan to a rotating deployment, according to a schedule.

Tsuna and the others would normally be in this shift, but since they all have to take the national unified exam, Xcution is currently handling the Fullbring aspect.

The Quincy quota in Soul Society fell to Karin and Yuzu. Originally, Ichigo could have filled all the quotas Ichigo himself, which is why Karin and Yuzu said they Ichigo to Soul Society in Ichigo's place.

Today was supposed to be the shift change day. Yukio and Riruka had just handed over their shift to Ginjo and the Ginjo when they were attacked by Quincy. I wonder what will happen to Ginjo who were just about to set up camp in Hueco Mundo?

"What's going on?"

Standing in the main Las Noches, Ginjo suddenly felt the earth shake violently, and the entire palace was trembling. He and Tsukishima almost lost their footing.

Ginjo and Tsukishima were there to take over from Tatsuzawa Kiriko and Jackie. If all went well, the two of them should stay in Las Noches for a while. However, they had only been in Las Noches for a short time and hadn't even found any Las Noches when things changed.

"Notification, we have just received news that the Quincy may attack Hueco Mundo. We are now activating the evacuation plan. Gillian below Adjuchas are requested to remain within Las Noches and not venture outside. Las Noches is about to sink underground to ensure everyone's safety..."

A pleasant female voice came over the loudspeaker of Las Noches. If Ginjo remembered correctly, it should be the voice of the researcher from that corner, Loly.

Before anyone could hear what happened next, Nel had already led a group of Arrancar out, including Halibel, Grimmjow, and Ulquiorra, who were considered to be of fighting strength.

Tatsuzawa Kiriko and Jackie, representing the Fullbring faction, followed behind the group.

"Mr. Ginjo? Mr. Tsukishima? You've come at the right time. We received news from Dohane Aura that the Quincy have invaded the World of the Living. It's said that some Quincy have already infiltrated Hueco Mundo. We need your help!"

Nel's sincere expression made Ginjo a little overwhelmed. "No problem, that's exactly why we came."

"Oh, thank you for your hard work, you've run into this as soon as you arrive."

A carefree, middle-aged voice sounded behind Ginjo. Turning around, he saw it was Kurosaki Isshin and Masaki Kurosaki.

"I didn't expect it to be you two stationed in Hueco Mundo," Ginjo said.

"Well, Ichigo and the others can't get away, so I thought it would be nice to go on vacation somewhere else, don't you think, darling?" Masa said with a smile, cupping her face in her hands.

"That's right, that's right." Isshin nodded quickly. Masa's fighting strength was by no means low. If he didn't respond well, he might get another lecture.

The group followed Nel's footsteps out of Las Noches and watched as Las Noches slowly sank into the ground, and the surrounding area turned into an endless desert once again.

"Hey, Nel, where are those damn Quincy?" Grimmjow stretched his shoulders, itching to get revenge for the last time he was bullied by the Hueco Mundo hunting party.

"I don't know. The information Miss Aura provided was that the Quincy have hidden in Hueco Mundo, but there's no more specific information," Nel, shaking her head.

"Why did Aura have to notify me? Let me ask Kisuke." Isshin took out his phone and saw that it had no signal connecting to the World of the Living.

"It's no use. Miss Aura said that Yhwach sealed off the connection Three Worlds, and she can only travel Three Worlds by relying on special abilities," Nel said.

"We can't just sit here and wait, there's nothing here..." Jackie helplessly. She found Hueco Mundo the hardest to adapt to; there was nothing there, and the sky was always dark. "How about we split up and search?"

"Foolish Jackie, splitting up at this time will only give the enemy a chance to pick us off one by one!" Ginjo rejected Jackie's suggestion irritably.

"Then give me a suitable suggestion." It was just a playful argument; Jackie wasn't going to go along with Ginjo.

"Everyone, they're here!" Ulquiorra, who had been silent until now, suddenly spoke up, covering one eye as if he could see the Quincy army.

"Seven people in total, all wrapped in white cloaks. One of them is exceptionally large, hmm?" Ulquiorra frowned slightly. "The other one has firearms from the World of the Living, seemingly a sniper rifle!"

When Ulquiorra first left Las Noches, he removed one of his eyeballs and released it. Luckily, he actually managed to find the Quincy squad's trail.

As for that dull, painful sound, it was the pain of Ulquiorra's eyeball being instantly severed by the gun barrel.

Lille Barro slowly holstered his sniper rifle, then flung off his cloak, revealing his true face. "The enemy has spotted us; there's no need to hide anymore."

"We're outnumbered, shouldn't we use guerrilla tactics?" asked Berenice, a representative of the contrarians.

"No need, I will end all of this!" Lille Barro's face radiated boundless confidence. "With this gun in my hand!"
