Time goes back not long ago.
Dangai Deep in the depths, a long and narrow space crack is suspended quietly in the darkness.
There is no light around the crack, only countless twisted Reishi streams constantly streaking across the edge, making subtle tearing sounds.
This was originally the area where Kōryū and Kōtotsu were active.
But now, large areas of space have been artificially transformed.
A dark metal platform extends from the depths of the crack, surrounded by dense Reishi pipes.
Blue-white liquid flows in the pipes, connecting dozens of huge transparent containers like blood vessels.
In every container, there is a figure of Soul Reaper floating.
Some people are holding Zanpakuto, some have their eyes closed tightly, and some are holding Captain's Haori slowly shaking in the liquid.
They have different appearances.
But Reiatsu is growing at an extremely fast rate.
This is Inaba Kagerōza's laboratory hidden in the crack of Dangai.
It is also the gift he prepared for Soul Society.
Kagerōza stood in the center of the platform, holding an instrument in his hand that recorded the data of Reiatsu.
His long white-green hair hangs down on both sides of his shoulders, and the monocle on his right eye constantly reflects cold light.
Looking at Reigai who was gradually stabilizing in front of him, a satisfied smile appeared on his face.
"Very good."
"Reishi fusion degree has exceeded 90%."
"As long as they perform the last memory calibration, they will have the combat experience of the original body."
Kagerōza raised his hand and gently touched the container in front of him.
Reigai in the container suddenly opened his eyes.
There was no emotion in those eyes.
It seems like a weapon just waiting for orders.
"Gotei 13."
Kagerōza whispered, "The captain you are most proud of will soon become the sword that destroys Seireitei."
"I'm really looking forward to it."
"What kind of expression will those stupid guys show when they see their companions who have fought alongside them for hundreds of years wielding swords at each other?"
The corners of his mouth gradually raised.
"Fear, despair, or regret?"
"No matter which one it is, it's interesting enough."
Kagerōza raised his head and looked into the deeper darkness.
There is an even bigger device placed there.
Countless Reishi silk threads extend from the device and connect the entire laboratory.
In the center of the device, there is a group of unstable soul fragments suspended.
That is part Source that belongs to Yushima Oko.
It is also Kagerōza's most persistent goal.
"Wait until I get hope."
"Wait until I get back my other half."
"Yushima Oko will reappear."
Kagerōza clenched his palms, a trace of uncontrollable fanaticism flashed in his eyes.
"At that time, everything Soul Society owes will be paid back with interest."
At this moment.
Boom!
The whole laboratory suddenly shook violently.
The metal bracket above the head made a screeching sound, several Reishi pipes burst on the spot, and blue-white liquid sprayed everywhere.
Kagerōza The smile on his face disappeared instantly.
He turned around suddenly and looked behind him.
"What's going on?"
A person in charge of monitoring, Reigai, hurried over.
"Sir Kagerōza, there is an abnormal Reiatsu collision outside Dangai."
"The intensity is rising."
"The nearby space structure has been affected, and several monitoring devices have lost contact."
Kagerōza frowned.
Dangai is no ordinary place.
Even if Captain-level Soul Reaper fights against each other, it will be difficult to affect the overall structure of Dangai.
Now even his laboratory is shaken.
What is happening outside?
"Open the monitoring screen."
"Yes!"
Reigai immediately walked to the console on the side.
Dozens of Light Screen lights up at the same time.
But most of the picture is just a snowflake.
Some surveillance devices have been completely destroyed by the aftermath of Reiatsu, while others have been swallowed up by the distorted space and can only barely transmit blurry images.
Kagerōza's face is getting more and more ugly.
In order to prevent Soul Society from discovering this place, he deployed a large number of monitoring devices around Dangai.
As a result, now, most of it has been destroyed.
What a troublesome bunch of guys.
Finally.
In the edge piece Light Screen, two blurry figures appeared.
One of them was wrapped in jet black Reiatsu.
The power was so heavy that it seemed to swallow up everything around it.
The other person is standing under the red Sun Wheel.
The golden orange Reiatsu illuminated the pitch-black Dangai, and the terrifying high temperature even caused the space to distort like melting.
Kagerōza's eyes gradually widened.
"Ichigo Kurosaki?"
"And...Yoriichi Tsugikuni?"
Of course he knew these two people.
One is Substitute Soul Reaper who keeps breaking into Soul Society's sight recently.
The other one is the new monster Gotei 13.
But Kagerōza never expected it.
When these two people fought, they were able to explode with such exaggerated power.
in the screen.
Ichigo Kurosaki's right arm merges with Zangetsu, and the dark crescent crosses Dangai.
Every swing can leave bottomless cracks in the space.
The shadow of the big sun behind Yoriichi Tsugikuni is suspended in the darkness like the real sun.
The red sword light kept falling.
The surrounding Kōryū were evaporated without a trace by Sun Reiatsu before they even had time to get close.
The two only played against each other a few times.
Dangai has been beaten to pieces.
Kagerōza stared at Light Screen, his breathing gradually became rapid.
This kind of throwing away tiles.
This kind of Reiatsu is enough to tear Dangai apart.
This is the real shingle!
"Hahaha..."
Kagerōza suddenly laughed.
He laughed louder and louder, the greed in his eyes almost overflowing.
"That's great."
"That's great!"
"As long as I can collect the remaining Reishi after their battle, I can create my own Yoriichi Tsugikuni and Ichigo Kurosaki."
"At that time, Gotei 13 and Captain-Commander will all be just decorations!"
Kagerōza opened his arms, as if he had seen Reigai Army flatten Seireitei.
"Reigai owns this kind of tile throw."
"I will be unbeatable!"
Boom!
Another more violent vibration came.
The instruments in the center of the laboratory sounded piercing alarms one after another.
Several Reigai researchers hurriedly stabilized the surrounding containers, fearing that the unfinished Reigai would be affected.
In the chaos, a Reigai quickly ran behind Kagerōza.
"Kagerōza-sama!"
"Dangai cracks have been affected by the battle and the space stability has decreased!"
"Nozomi Kujō took advantage of the Barrier guarding the area to get loose and escaped!"
Kagerōza The smile on his face suddenly froze.
He slowly turned his head.
The gaze under the monocle became extremely gloomy.
"What did you say?"
The Reigai trembled, lowered his head and said, "I, we are sending people to chase..."
"Trash!"
Kagerōza waved his hand suddenly.
The violent Reiatsu instantly threw the Reigai away and hit the metal wall in the distance hard.
"If you can't even see a half body that has lost its power, what is the meaning of your existence!"
There was dead silence in the laboratory.
All Reigai lowered their heads and did not dare to make any sound.
Kagerōza's chest rose and fell for a moment, then slowly calmed down.
So what if you escape?
Nozomi Kujō can't escape at all.
As long as you send out enough Reigai, you can always catch her.
What really matters now are the two perfect Reiatsu samples in Dangai.
Kagerōza looked at the surveillance screen again, with a greedy light in his eyes again.
"Send someone immediately."
"Bring Nozomi Kujō back."
"As for me..."
He raised his hand and gently stroked the red sun in Light Screen.
"I want to personally collect the Reishi left by Yoriichi Tsugikuni and Ichigo Kurosaki."
