Girl, Do You Know What Hell Looks Like? / Bankai: Forget Worries

"That's what you must be thinking!" Gen'en Kinra appeared behind the girl like a ghost, whispering her thoughts in her ear, and finally gently blew a breath into her ear.

Lulu was startled and quickly turned around.

Gen'en Kinra had already drawn his sword, the tip of which sliced through Lulu's arm. Lulu hurriedly controlled the silk threads to force Gen'en Kinra back.

"You are a perfect ingredient, and I intend to remove you with the highest courtesy." Gen'en Kinra was completely absorbed in his own world, talking to himself and not caring at all what the girl was thinking.

"You might have a slight misunderstanding about my Zanpakuto's abilities, thinking that this sword can only alter my own perception. That's a misconception. This sword can change not only myself but also my enemies. For example, it can decrease an enemy's perception or increase their pain sensitivity." Gen'en Kinra smiled at Lulu, "By the way, I could have killed you with that last strike, but killing you with one strike would have been too boring, so I increased your pain receptors twentyfold."

Lulu nearly choked upon hearing the number.

"I've conducted a thorough investigation into human suffering, and the most painful thing is childbirth for women. After I increase your pain sensitivity, even a light prick with a toothpick will make you feel the excruciating pain of childbirth! Of course, I'm a very gentle person, I won't prick you with a toothpick! I will peel off your skin little by little, then cut off your tongue, gouge out your eyes, deafen you, and sever your limbs. Don't worry, I won't kill you. I will soak you in a wine jar, so that you feel the most extreme pain every moment. Tell me... isn't what I'm doing too merciful?" Gen'en Kinra said gently.

Lulu felt her whole body tremble just listening to these descriptions.

What kind of freaks are the Gotei 13?!

"You... you stay away! I'm warning you..."

"Don't be afraid, child, I will treat you with the utmost respect! Bankai!"

"Muken."

Chapter 286: Young girl, do you know what Hell is like?

The world suddenly turned black.

As time passed, a faint crimson light appeared at the center of the world.

"Da... da... da..."

A crisp sound of footsteps suddenly rang out, accompanied by the grating sound of metal scraping against the ground.

Lulu's fear had reached its peak.

Gen'en Kinra's figure slowly emerged from the blood-red light.

"Welcome to the Mugen Jigoku!" Gen'en Kinra's face was full of a gentle smile, a smile so gentle it sent chills down one's spine.

"You must come from a faraway place, right? Do you know what the Eighteen-Layer Hell are?" Gen'en Kinra asked. "Legend has it that the souls of those who commit heinous crimes will fall into Hell after death and endure layers of torment. I don't have any other hobbies, I just like to torment people. My Bankai reactions are all the truest desires in people's hearts. I can't help it, what can I do? I'm a person who is true to himself."

Gen'en Kinra snapped his fingers lightly, and the darkness receded, Lulu a variety of torture instruments laid out in the dimly lit space.

Chopping boards, rope twisters, boiling oil cauldrons, tongue pullers, nail boards, eye-gouging knives—the variety was endless.

Just looking at these instruments of torture can cause waves of phantom pain in one's body.

"I don't consider myself a good person, and I never thought I'd have such a peaceful end. But no matter what, I was the Captain of the Third Division of the Gotei 13. You killed so many of my members, I have to get justice for these kids!" Gen'en Kinra casually picked up a sharp blade for gouging out eyes. "Your eyes are beautiful, especially your left one, how about giving it to me?"

Gen'en Kinra placed the knife on the fire, and the blade quickly turned red-hot. Lulu's fear had reached its peak; she wanted to leave this place, she wanted to get away from this damned pervert.

Lulu conjured Spirit Bow in her hand and instantly released dozens of arrows, but they were silently swallowed up by the darkness.

"It's no use! This is Hell! This is my world! You can't defy my will, so just enjoy it!" Gen'en Kinra appeared behind Lulu like a ghost, gently choking Lulu neck with his arm.

Lulu's pain sensitivity was increased twentyfold, so even the slightest stimulation would cause her immense pain.

Gen'en Kinra gripped Lulu's hand tightly, his fingers digging into Lulu flesh. The intense pain left Lulu powerless and unable to resist. She could only watch helplessly as the scorching the Heat blade pierced her eye inch by inch.

"Ah! No... no... ahhh!!!"

The blade first slowly sliced through her eyelids, the Heat making them sizzle, then it gradually penetrated deeper, causing Lulu the greatest pain.

Lulu screamed loudly at first, but when the blade pierced her eyeball, she fainted from the pain.

Even in a normal state, few people could withstand this kind of pain, let alone with her pain sensitivity increased twentyfold!

"Don't pass out! This is just the beginning!" Gen'en Kinra had a sickly smile on his face. With a slight flick of the blade, he gouged out the burnt eyeball.

Then, Gen'en Kinra jabbed Lulu's left rib hard with his left hand. The intense pain mixed with a tingling and numb sensation jolted Lulu awake from her unconsciousness.

"Actually, you don't need to be so afraid! There are eighteen levels of Hell. If you can endure the torture of these eighteen levels, you will return to the World of the Living! Why don't you try your best?" Gen'en Kinra whispered in his ear, as tenderly as if he were talking to his lover.

Lulu tried to struggle, but the intense pain left her powerless, and her whole body trembled and convulsed uncontrollably.

"Kill... kill me! Please, kill me now!" Lulu cried out in extreme pain.

Now, Lulu has no desire to return to the World of the Living; she only wishes to die quickly.

"How can this be? People should cherish their own lives! I've heard that your Western religions don't allow suicide, and if you commit suicide, your soul will fall into Hell. By the way, you're already in Hell now?" Gen'en Kinra reached into Lulu's mouth and forcefully broke two of Lulu's front teeth.

Lulu didn't even have the strength to scream this time; her whole body was convulsing uncontrollably.

Gen'en Kinra pinched her little tongue between his fingers.

"What a lovely tongue. I still prefer your quick wit." With that, Gen'en Kinra picked up the tongue-pulling forceps from the ground, gently clamping her tongue in his hand before forcefully applying pressure...

The Eighteen-Layer Hell, eighteen kinds of inhuman tortures!

Including chopping in half, peeling, and frying!

Lulu was utterly devastated to discover that she was not going to die.

After each fatal ordeal, she would remain in that near-death state, meaning her physical wounds would not heal, but the pain and damage she suffered would accumulate!

As she was skinned and thrown into the oil cauldron, Lulu wished it was all just a dream, that she had never participated in this war, and had never experienced such torture.

This is truly a situation where one is trapped between life and death.

Her body became increasingly sensitive, and she suffered more and more pain.

"God! Please, please, let me be free!!"

Still in the South District.

Obana Danjirou and another figure were maneuvering on the rooftop, fighting and retreating at the same time.

The one fighting Obana Danjirou was none other than Bard of the Sternritter.

In contrast, Obana Danjirou looked rather disheveled, forced to jump around by the wide-range AOE attack.

As Bard pursued, he said coldly, "The Captain of the Gotei 13 shouldn't be this weak. Are you too ashamed to fight me? You won't even unleash your Zanpakuto!"

Although Obana Danjirou appeared to be chasing him in a rather disheveled manner, he was actually quite agile and in control. He said in a very helpless tone, "It's not that I don't want to unleash my Zanpakuto, it's just that my ability is countered by you! But since you've said that... well, I guess I'll let you see the power of my Zanpakuto a little."

Obana Danjirou softly called out, "Wither away, Yesterday's Flower!"

Suddenly, the shape of Zanpakuto Obana Danjirou's Zanpakuto underwent a very strange change. The hilt of the Zanpakuto turned into a flower, and the blade transformed into a long whip covered in thorns.

"A plant-type Zanpakuto encountering someone like you who can control the power of the desert is just too unlucky!" Obana Danjirou said with a bitter expression.

Despite knowing that his abilities countered his opponent, Bard did not underestimate him in the slightest. He knew he couldn't afford to be careless before the enemy truly revealed the power of his Zanpakuto, or he might very well suffer a defeat!

Almost simultaneously, a Reishi Arrow flew from not far away, as Ishida Oboro provided support from the flank.

"Always together, I never thought I'd be a winner in life!" Obana Danjirou said self-deprecatingly.

I've lived for hundreds of years and I've never even held a girl's hand! What a failure!

Chapter 287: Bankai, Forget Worries

Obana Danjirou Obana Danjirou his thorny whip, which was over fifteen meters long, as nimbly as if it were his own hands and feet.

Bard condensed the yellow sand from the sky into a long whip of sand, and used the same weapon to fight against the enemy.

The two whips clashed, Obana Danjirou's whip was sent flying, clearly putting him at a disadvantage.

"See? I told you, my abilities are no match for yours. Now all I can do is wait for my teammates to come and support me," Obana Danjirou said bitterly.

Bard didn't believe a word the man in front of him said, because from the start of the fight until now, the man had been feigning weakness the whole time.

However, while feigning weakness, he perfectly blocked all his attacks without suffering any real harm, meaning he always had a trump card up his sleeve.

Bard seemed to have the upper hand by controlling a large area of desert for his attacks, but he himself felt increasingly terrified as the battle progressed, because no matter how much he increased his power, his enemies could easily block his attacks.

That feeling was simply... unfathomable.

Obana Danjirou deflected Bard's attack again, then revealed a very relieved smile, "My teammates have arrived. I advise you to run away quickly."

Bard frowned and turned his head slightly, but he couldn't see Gen'en Kinra slowly walking towards him, dragging a bundle of things in his hand.

When Bard saw the lump of something Gen'en Kinra was dragging in his hand, he almost vomited.

From the outline, it vaguely resembled a person, but it had been tortured to the point of being inhuman; it was merely a lump of flesh still struggling to move.

And he looks like he's still alive!

"You... you..." Bard had seen many storms in his life, but seeing this scene still made his palms sweat.

Gen'en Kinra said gently, "This little girl should be your companion. She calls herself Lulu. Do you know her?"

Bard could hardly believe his ears. This mass of rotten flesh before him—was that the beautiful, lovely girl?

"What... what did you do to her! What did you do to her?!...!!" Bard roared furiously.

Gen'en Kinra said in a very calm tone, "I'm just asking her to take a trip through Hell. If you like, I'll give her back to you!"

Gen'en Kinra casually tossed the lump of stuff in front of Bard. It was so bad that it was impossible to look at without censoring it. Ishida Oboro, who was not far away, couldn't help but vomit.

"There's another enemy? Is it a problem for me to handle that enemy over there?" Gen'en Kinra said to Obana Danjirou in a consultative tone.

Bard's pupils contracted. "Don't touch her!"

In an instant, the Sandstorm, like a raging dog on the sea, surged dozens of meters high and swept in with overwhelming force. However, the two Captain were so strong that this attack could not harm them in the slightest, and they easily dodged it.

Bard has realized that this war is completely different from what they expected.

The battle raged for several hours, during which they suffered more than half their casualties. Although the Gotei 13 also lost many men, most of them were low-ranking Shinigami (death gods), while the elite Gotei 13 suffered no losses.

This is not going to be good!

Even if His Majesty personally intervened, could he withstand the simultaneous attack of so many powerful Grim Reapers?

"I'm going to keep you two here no matter what." Bard unleashed all his power without regard for the cost, each grain of sand like a bullet, carrying a violent wind as it pierced through the bodies of Gen'en Kinra and Obana Danjirou.

In an instant, the two Captain ' bodies were torn to shreds by the sandstorm, falling to the ground like broken dolls.

"It... it worked?" Bard couldn't believe it; he had actually killed those two Captain.

Very good.

With such merit, His Majesty will surely pardon Longyue's crime.

Ishida Oboro ran over and hugged Bard tightly.

"It's alright, everything's alright!" Bard hugged his lover and smelled the faint fragrance of flowers.

Very good!

"Bard, let's get out of here. Yhwach won't let us off so easily. Let's run! Even Yhwach might not survive this war. Let's get away from this conflict, to somewhere no one can find us, just the two of us, and start a new life!" Ishida Oboro said.

Bard never expected his lover to be so bold.

But looking at the remains of his comrades and then at the cold-blooded and ruthless emperor, Bard gritted his teeth and took out a device from his clothes to open a portal—something he had deliberately hidden.

"Let's go, to a place where no one can find us. And then start a new life!" Bard opened a portal, and the two left the Soul Society, crossed the ocean, and finally arrived at a peaceful and tranquil island.

They married and had children on the island. They grew vegetables, fished, and played with their children. They watched their lover's hair slowly turn white, and finally, the two of them sat together in front of the rocks, leisurely watching the sunset.

"Your Bankai is pretty impressive!" Gen'en Kinra said in surprise, rubbing his chin.

Obana Danjirou somewhat embarrassedly.

At this moment, Bard and Ishida Oboro were sleeping on the ground, tightly embracing each other, surrounded by many lovely little yellow flowers.

These little yellow flowers are called Wuyoucao, and they are the Bankai of Obana Danjirou.

His Bankai is Bankai that brings happiness to people, allowing them to fall into a deep dream. If the person in the dream is unaware of it, they may never wake up.

As a subject of the Wandenreich, Bard had to be loyal to Yhwach, but as a man, he also had to protect his lover. The long-term oppression left him feeling mentally exhausted. With just a slight hint from Obana Danjirou, Bard fell into a dream.

The fragrance he smelled in his dream was not his lover's body scent, but the scent of Wuyoucao.

"What's wrong with these two? Are we just leaving them here?" Gen'en Kinra asked.

"He won't wake up anytime soon anyway," Obana Danjirou laughed. "Why don't the two of us go and help out in other places!"

"Fine! I'll reluctantly show mercy this once!" Gen'en Kinra shook his head slightly, looking at the smiles on the faces of Bard and Ishida Oboro. They must be really happy in their dream!

Suddenly, the powerful Reiatsu of Yamabuki Chidori swept across the entire Seireitei.
