When Yoruichi Shihōin and Shadow rushed to the huge annex where Ichigo Kurosaki was located, they happened to meet Tessai Tsukabishi, Jinta Hanakari and Ururu Tsumugiya who had also arrived.
After simply formulating a plan, a few people started taking action, well! It was said to be a plan, but in fact it was just three people, Tessai Tsukabishi, attracting the enemy's attention, and then two people, Yoruichi Shihōin and Shadow, went in to save the people.
With the cooperation of Jinta Hanakari and Ururu Tsumugiya, the cannons with reasonable power were fired one after another, attacking only towards the other courtyard. The sound of "Boom!" was heard endlessly, and taking advantage of this opportunity, Yoruichi Shihōin and Shadow just sneaked in. To be honest, Shadow didn't want to do this at all, but it was a pity that in front of Yoruichi Shihōin, he had no right to speak.
When I saw Ichigo Kurosaki, he was half-kneeling on the ground with a knife in his hand, looking miserable all over, while several strange-looking people were standing around. That should be the so-called Bount! Wait, there is another Bleach, yes, it is Bleach, what's going on!
However, before thinking too much, Bount, who was wearing gold-rimmed glasses and looked as polite as an office worker, was commanding his Doll. A small machine-like thing attacked Ichigo Kurosaki.
Yoruichi Shihōin snorted softly and appeared in a flash, blocking in front of Ichigo Kurosaki.
At the same time, Shadow also stepped out, pulled out Zanpakutō from his waist, waved his backhand, and struck straight at Bount with white hair and a scar on his chin with a huge sharp black sword.
"Mr. Yoruichi, Mr. Shadow!" Ichigo Kurosaki shouted in surprise with his eyes widened.
Seeing Yoruichi Shihōin, the office worker's Bount directed more Doll to attack. The overwhelming and terrifying number of Doll.
"Shunkō!"
Yoruichi Shihōin's face was solemn, and there was no nonsense. A thin glow enveloped the whole body, and the orange-yellow clothes were flipped open, revealing the Xing Zhan costume underneath. The violent Reiatsu lightning swept rapidly towards the surroundings, and in just an instant, all Doll were wiped out.
On the other side, the sword light slashed by Shadow did not hit the Bount. Instead, it was deflected by Bleach on one side, and he was knocked away.
"What's in the way!" Shadow snorted coldly. Just when he was about to kill this overestimating Bleach, Yoruichi Shihōin's voice came from the side.
"Stop fighting, Shadow, get out of here quickly!"
"Yes, Lady Yoruichi!"
Although a little unwilling, Shadow still chose to listen to Yoruichi Shihōin's words. After responding respectfully, he came to Yoruichi Shihōin's side, grabbed Ichigo Kurosaki, and the two Shunpo started, and disappeared in an instant.
"Slow... wait!"
Bleach, who was knocked away, got up in embarrassment, gritted his teeth and shouted, raised his knife and was about to chase him out, but was stopped by Bount, who had a scar on his face.
"Hunting...Kariya-sama!"
"Stop chasing him, Ichinose, you can't defeat that man..."
······
Feeling Yasutora Sado and Orihime Inoue, Reiatsu, Yoruichi Shihōin and Shadow carrying Ichigo Kurosaki appeared directly in front of the two of them, in the small woods not far from the courtyard.
"Kurosaki-kun!" Orihime Inoue immediately shouted and ran over.
Shadow glanced at Orihime Inoue and threw the Ichigo Kurosaki in his hand towards Yasutora Sado who ran in front of him.
"No... are you okay?" Orihime Inoue asked weakly, but his eyes couldn't help but look at Yoruichi Shihōin.
"Don't worry, it's nothing serious!" Yoruichi Shihōin replied after hearing Orihime Inoue's words.
"Great!" Orihime Inoue cheered immediately.
At this time, a space black hole suddenly appeared not far away, but the power did not surprise everyone. Then, the black hole disappeared, Lirin, Kurodo, Noba three Modified Soul, and Rukia Kuchiki, Uryu Ishida who came from Soul Society, and she was still the same gorgeous woman whom she had seen once before.
"Sister!" Hun's face turned red and he rushed towards Rukia Kuchiki; "My beautiful horizontal line..."
Unexpectedly, just like before, the calm-looking Rukia Kuchiki turned around and stepped on her hard.
"Everyone is safe, and what a coincidence that is!" Kurodo spread his hands and sighed; "I didn't expect everyone to gather here!"
"We made an exit by lowering Reiatsu!" Noba said while lightly splashing cold water on the side; "It's not a coincidence!"
"Can you stand up?" Yasutora Sado asked, supporting Ichigo Kurosaki.
"Yeah!" Ichigo Kurosaki nodded.
"We can't wait any longer!" Yoruichi Shihōin said with a solemn expression; "We have to leave here as soon as possible, Shadow. Go ahead and notify Tessai to retreat!"
"Yes, Lady Yoruichi!"
······
World of the Living, Karakura Town, Urahara Shop.
Uryu Ishida and the Bount named Yoshino Sōma were placed in the back room to rest due to their health. Tessai Tsukabishi and their souls took care of and guarded them. However, the rest of the people gathered together and discussed countermeasures, but there was nothing they could do.
Ichigo Kurosaki lowered his head, not knowing what he was thinking about. His eyes were indescribably dull, and he didn't say a word for a long time. People around him looked at him and didn't know what to say.
"Kurosaki······" Orihime Inoue said weakly.
"Um... can you be more cheerful?" This is the guy Kisuke Urahara.
"The air is so stuffy!" This is the voice of Renji Abarai; "It feels so uncomfortable!"
"So, the new information we learned from Soul Society is!" Rukia Kuchiki said with a solemn expression; "Technology Development Bureau has begun to take action!"
Nodding, Yoruichi Shihōin said, "Once upon a time, Bount and Quincy had a fierce battle. After that, they seemed to have begun to absorb the souls of living people, and until now Bount had to absorb the souls of dead people. In other words, there is such a rule, but after this incident, they absorbed the souls of living people for a period of time!"
"According to inference, when they prepare for any big action, they will violate the clan's taboo and attack living humans. Moreover, for this they need a specific Quincy, and then Bount will start attacking humans, those living humans!"
"Mr. Yoruichi, is this true?" Ichigo Kurosaki clenched his fists and asked Yoruichi Shihōin next to him as if to collect evidence.
"Ignore the others!" Yoruichi Shihōin sighed and nodded; "It was Ukitake who came to inform me in a hurry. There is no reason to doubt!"
"Kariya wants to use the power of Ishida as Quincy to open a hole in another world!" Rukia Kuchiki took over the topic and said, "For this purpose, the soul of a living person is needed as energy, that's what it is!"
"Moreover, it is said that doing this requires Quincy's ability!" Rukia Kuchiki asked Yoruichi Shihōin.
"There is only circumstantial evidence now!" Yoruichi Shihōin replied calmly; "Don't jump to conclusions rashly. No matter what, we must find a way to stop Kariya and their soul hunters from starting to attack humans!"
"Mr. Yoruichi!" Ichigo Kurosaki suddenly said.
"What's the matter!"
