Kariya Jin is dead, and the revenge incident of Bount is finally over. Originally, this would be a happy thing, but no one is happy about it.
Bount is a race that was created due to Soul Society's mistakes. Just like in the crypt, Yoruichi Shihōin said, whether it is bleeding or injury, Soul Society has to bear the consequences, even if it was Soul Society who caused all this thousands of years ago.
······
At the same time, Soul Society, Seireitei, Fourth Division, emergency rescue center.
The silent room was full of people, including Gotei 13's captains, Ichigo Kurosaki, Uryu Ishida and others. The one standing at the front was Genryūsai Shigekuni Yamamoto.
Although there were many people standing in the room, there was not even a trace of noise coming from them. The faces with different expressions were all looking at the same place.
Right where everyone was looking, on the pure white hospital bed, a man was lying there with his eyes closed. His head was full of broken black hair, his pale and bloodless face, and his exposed chest was carved with strange demonic red lines. Wisps of light that seemed to be alive were looming on it, and each time it appeared, it would make the man's body tremble.
At the same time, it will also make the already frowning brows of the woman sitting by the bed closer together. With her purple high ponytail and wheat-colored healthy skin, Yoruichi Shihōin holds Shadow's big hand tightly and puts it against her forehead, feeling the tremors again and again. There is some eagerness, some worry, some pain, and helpless hatred in her golden eyes...
I don't know how long passed, maybe an hour, maybe two hours later, the sound of the door opening broke the heavy atmosphere in the room. Fourth Division Captain Retsu Unohana walked in first, followed by Lieutenant Isane Kotetsu, Third Seat Iemura Yasochika, and Hanatarō Yamada with seven seats.
But everyone's face was frowning, with a look of helplessness and heaviness.
"Captain Unohana······"
Looking at Retsu Unohana's expression, although he had already guessed the result in his heart, Yoruichi Shihōin opened his mouth and still asked; "Shadow, he... in the end..."
"I'm so sorry! Yoruichi!"
Shaking his head, Retsu Unohana said words in a heavy tone that made everyone despair; "I can't get rid of the Purification Seal power in Shadow's body!"
"Really!"
With a very calm voice, a very calm tone, and a very calm look, Yoruichi Shihōin closed his golden eyes, but he could not hide the trembling and sad despair in any way.
"..." Byakuya Kuchiki couldn't help but take a small step back and lowered his head. He didn't want everyone to see the pain and sadness in his eyes. Nobles would not allow this.
"Are you kidding me?" Kenpachi Zaraki took a step forward and broke the dullness with a ferocious smile; "My master, how is it possible, how could he die so casually? Beasts die like this, and it shouldn't be like this. Death in battle is where we end up..."
Just as Kenpachi Zaraki finished speaking, there was a "bang!" sound, and the closed door was pushed open heavily. Ran'Tao, wearing a white research coat, ran in panting, looking at Shadow lying motionless on the bed, and asked anxiously to the side, Ichigo Kurosaki and Uryu Ishida, whom he only knew.
"Shadow, Shadow How is he! Kurosaki, Ishida, talk!"
"This... this...!" Ichigo Kurosaki hesitated, gritted his teeth, and sighed helplessly.
"No... no way, how could this happen?"
Although Ran'Tao had already known that such a result would happen, when he actually heard it, it was still like a bolt from the blue. Ran'Tao staggered.
"Miss Ran'Tao!!!"
Uryu Ishida was shocked and hurriedly stepped forward to help Ran'Tao, who was almost falling to the ground.
However, Ran'Tao threw away Uryu Ishida's hand, staggered to Shadow's bed, looked at Shadow's pale but still angular face, which had lost its color, and was silent for a moment, smiling a little sadly.
"Is this the result you want? You know clearly that one day will come, but you still have to get up, go out, and find your Lady Yoruichi!"
"You should know very well, right? If you had stayed quietly, you wouldn't have become like this now. In the end, did you still choose to leave? Is your Lady Yoruichi so important? You talk! You always say that I am an idiot, but in fact, you are..."
"Ahem..."
There was a sudden dry cough, and from the corner of the silent Yoruichi Shihōin's mouth, a wisp of red slowly dripped and splashed, that was, blood.
"Yoruichi······"
"Lady Yoruichi······"
"Mr. Yoruichi······"
Different shouting voices, but the same concern and anxiety. Soi Fon, Byakuya Kuchiki directly changed their expressions, making their already ugly faces even more bitter.
"So, you are Yoruichi!"
Turning his head, Ran'Tao squinted his eyes and looked at Yoruichi Shihōin expressionlessly, but there was no expression of resentment or... envy in his eyes.
"·····His Lady Yoruichi!"
"Yes, it's me!"
Ignoring Ran'Tao at all, and the blood on the corner of his mouth, Yoruichi Shihōin said in a calm tone, and pressed Shadow's big hand tightly to his face; "It's me, the one who hurt him like this, yes, it's me, if it wasn't for saving me... Speaking of it, this is not the first time..."
"Lady Yoruichi!" Soi Fon suddenly took a step forward and said with some excitement; "Please don't say that to Master Shadow... No matter what the outcome is, as Shade, you must protect your master, This is our mission, our belief, and the value of our existence. Even if we lose our own lives, we will not hesitate to do so. Therefore, what Lady Yoruichi said, in Soi Fon's opinion, is an insult to Lord Shadow!"
"An... insult!"
Yoruichi Shihōin smiled bitterly, but there were clear tears in his eyes. Why, why is this the result? Obviously what I want is not these at all! Why, why...
Suddenly, Shadow, who was lying on the bed and was in a drowsy state, sat up in vain. His eyes were bright red when he opened his eyes, and his body was twitching violently, as if he was suppressing something. Shadow gritted his teeth and glanced at Yoruichi Shihōin. He didn't even bother to speak. He broke away from Yoruichi Shihōin's hand and jumped out of the window.
"Shadow!!!!"
"Ahhhh!!!"
Roaring to the sky, the Shadow standing in the sky immediately erupted into a monster Reiatsu that soared into the sky. The blood-red color was filled with destruction, death, killing and ferocity.
In an instant, everyone in the huge Seireitei was suppressed by the huge Reiatsu. Those Bleach who were stronger lay on the ground, unable to move at all, while those who were weaker were immediately passed out.
"This is..."
The captains were stunned, looking at the scarlet figure, with a hint of fear in their eyes.
"Is it really... out of control?"
