The Unforgiven from Shinigami
I'm hungry.
Shiraishi looked up at the sky, which was no longer the original azure blue, but had turned gray and cracks were spreading.
The mountain ranges also showed signs of drying and cracking.
The situation is very bad.
After two days and two nights without food or water, the physical hunger and weakened Reiatsu have begun to affect this spiritual world.
This is the third day. Is it early morning or noon?
He wasn't sure of the exact time, but he knew that he didn't have much time left.
"It's a really strange feeling," Shiraishi muttered. If it were before he transmigrated, he probably would have chosen to give up and do nothing in the face of such a desperate situation.
Now, he hasn't given up. Holding onto the belief that he'll give it his all until the very end, and even if he fails, he'll have no regrets, he continues to strive.
This is all due to the mental growth brought about by strength.
Fortunately, this growth will not regress due to the loss of power.
Shiraishi stood up. The short rest was over, and it was time to begin a new flight. He had a feeling that this time he would succeed; if not, then it would be next time.
Reaching the optimal takeoff position, Shiraishi leaped downwards, arms outstretched, like a giant flying squirrel beginning its low-altitude flight.
July 11th, nearing noon.
Two days of searching yielded no results. They searched every district from the South District 5, but still couldn't find Tsukikage Yagyū's secret hideout.
Perhaps we're thinking the wrong way.
Retsu Unohana spoke, she placed the last dish on the table.
This is the home of a nobleman in District Nine. Since the nobleman is not home, the retainers naturally will not refuse the captains' request to rest.
She did not allow her retainers to provide food; she only asked for ingredients, and she cooked all the meals herself.
This is also one of her hobbies.
Aizen pushed up his glasses and asked, " Captain Unohana, what do you mean by this?"
Retsu Unohana knelt on the other side of the table and said, " Tsukikage Yagyū probably didn't escape from the South District 5 and is still there, but there's a strong barrier defense outside that makes it undetectable to us."
Aizen hadn't really thought about this question; he had been slacking off the entire rescue operation.
Although he was very interested in Shiraishi, if he died so easily, he wouldn't be worth continuing to care about.
Therefore, he had no intention of seriously carrying out a rescue; he was simply going with the flow.
" Captain Unohana is right. Should we go back to the South District 5 to search?"
"Yes, I suggest we return to the battlefield and start searching inch by inch."
Retsu Unohana suggested that if they continued searching like this, the chances of finding anyone seemed slim. Instead, they should turn back and thoroughly investigate the area around the battleground.
This was a very difficult decision.
If I'm wrong, Tsukikage Yagyū is running towards the back, or even in the next area...
A flicker of hesitation crossed her eyes, but she didn't change her mind.
Aizen nodded and said, "Then let's do it this way."
"Um."
Byakuya Kuchiki gave a brief reply, picked up his knife, and patiently picked out the green onions from the dish, arranging them one by one on the small plate next to him.
He hates eating onions.
The chefs at the Kuchiki Clan all knew his preferences, and they never put scallions in his dishes.
For some reason,
Captain Unohana doesn't seem to understand at all.
He always picks out the scallions, but he still puts in a lot of them. Is he doing it on purpose?
Thinking this through, Byakuya Kuchiki hesitated to make a request, since the chef wasn't his own family's cook after all.
The Fourth Division Captain didn't expect him to cook, so now that he has, what's there to complain about?
Besides, even without the scallions, the dish itself is quite flavorful.
He likes spicy food.
Aizen doesn't like spicy food.
But Retsu Unohana likes spicy food.
Therefore, all three dishes were spicy.
Aizen forced himself to eat two bowls of rice and three plates of spicy dishes, suppressing the urge to vomit.
The intense spiciness masks the original flavors of the ingredients, stimulating the tip of the tongue.
I really don't understand, how can anyone like spicy food?
Aizen inwardly grumbled, but his face betrayed no displeasure. He smiled and said, "Thank you for your hospitality, Captain Unohana."
Retsu Unohana stood up and said, "No need to be so polite, let's go."
"Um."
Byakuya Kuchiki gracefully took out a tissue and wiped his mouth.
According to the Kuchiki Clan's rules, fruit is always served after meals. However, when dining out, some of these rules need to be changed.
The three of them Shunpo left through the doorway, leaving the nobleman's mansion far behind.
At noon, they returned to the battlefield in the South District 5.
A new problem arises: which of the four directions—east, west, south, and north—should be the starting point?
While dispersing operations may increase efficiency, it also raises the risk.
The opponent is capable of quickly eliminating Shiraishi and Soi Fon; anyone left alone is easily killed instantly.
Retsu Unohana decided to rely on her woman's intuition, "Start from the north, don't use Shunpo to travel, run there stealthily."
If there really is a barrier outside, the fact that she can remain undetected indicates that the barrier is of a very high level.
However sophisticated the barrier may be, it will react once it touches a key point; this is its weakness.
He kept touching the ground, the soil, the trees, the river, repeatedly bending over and straightening up.
Retsu Unohana felt a little tired; having too many breasts wasn't always a good thing.
My shoulders are sore.
She wiped the sweat from her forehead with one hand, touched the rock wall with the other, and already planned to move on to the next place.
Buzz.
A subtle, almost imperceptible tactile sensation is transmitted to the palm.
This is not an ordinary rock face.
A flicker of joy flashed in Retsu Unohana's eyes as she said, "Found it. There's something wrong here."
Aizen Shunpo to the side. " Captain Unohana, please step back a little."
"Hmm." Ever since she relinquished her identity First Kenpachi, she had never drawn her sword for battle again, usually only to save others.
In most battles, she chooses to use Kidō or Hakuda to deal with the situation.
She Shunpo leaped to the rear, preparing to provide support using the Kidō.
Byakuya Kuchiki and Aizen were less than five meters apart. Byakuya drew his Senbonzakura blossoms and said, "Let me handle this."
"Thank you for your trouble, Captain Kuchiki." Aizen gripped Kyōka Suigetsu, his hand resting on the sword. If he found the person, he would naturally eliminate Tsukikage Yagyū.
Only the dead cannot defend themselves for their crimes.
" Bankai, Senbonzakura Kageyoshi."
Byakuya Kuchiki released his grip, letting Senbonzakura fall to the ground. The enemy was a powerful figure capable of handling two captains simultaneously, and he wouldn't be so arrogant as to use his Shikai to deal with it.
The Senbonzakura fell to the ground, creating ripples, and huge Senbonzakura rose up from both sides.
Then, the blades scattered, like cherry blossoms scattered by a spring breeze, drifting towards the high mountains ahead.
The barrier was attacked by thousands of petal blades in an instant, and the entire mountain shook.
Tsukikage Yagyū in the hall looked up and sighed, "What annoying fellows. I'm just quietly stealing a few things, which is already quite restrained compared to the nobles' plundering, yet they still come knocking on my door one after another."
"They deserve to die."
" Bankai..."
