Chapter 54: People without Consciousness
Urahara Kisuke held up the brim of his hat and sighed: "The defense power of the three-day shield is very limited. In this battle, it will probably be of no use. If we can recover, there will still be a fourth division. , I’m afraid Captain Unohana Retsu or a Shinigami at the level of Vice Captain Kotetsu will also come to the front line this time, and there will be several times the number of people who can fill Miss Inoue’s vacancy.”
"But..." Sadatora suddenly realized that he had no ability to refute when facing Urahara Kisuke, because Urahara Kisuke's words did indeed have real meaning.
"You are so annoying." In case there were any objections, Urahara Kisuke finally had to say in a heavy voice: "A warrior who loses his power will only get in the way."
"Mr. Urahara!" Sadatora also wanted to gain some last hope for Inoue Orihime. However, at this time, Inoue Orihime responded softly: "Forget it..."
"Inoue..."
"Forget it." Inoue Orihime said in a very calm voice: "Thank you, Sadatari-kun."
Then he faced Urahara Kisuke. No matter what, he should express his gratitude, so he said: "Thank you, Mr. Urahara. It's great that you can tell me directly."
Then he deliberately put on a smile and said to everyone, "Then I'll take my leave first." Then he ran out.
"Wait a minute, Inoue." Sadatora wanted to catch up and save the remaining hope, because he understood that Inoue Orihime would not be happy, but Renji Abarai held his shoulder.
"Abarei..."
"Don't be like this." Renji Abarai said, "Mr. Urahara is right."
Sadatora Taihu looked back at Abarai Renji who was holding him.
"Although the fourth team is specifically responsible for treatment, it can still be regarded as the Gotei 13 team that has undergone combat training." Looking at the back of Inoue Orihime running out, Abarai Renji also said to Sadatari in a heavy voice. Taihu said, "On the contrary, Inoue, although she has abilities, is originally just a human being. With her kind of personality, she is not suitable for fighting. Now I tell him that long-term pain is worse than short-term pain."
"Ah, I understand." Chadata Taihu had no choice but to give up. In fact, he couldn't even guarantee it for himself at the moment, and he didn't have the energy to take care of others.
Just as he opened the door of Urahara Store, Rukia Kuchiki appeared outside the door.
The thoughtful Lucia looked at Inoue Orihime's face and said, "Inoue, what's wrong? Why is it so..."
"Kuchi...Kuchiki-san." When Inoue Orihime saw Rukia as a woman, the grief in her heart finally broke out uncontrollably, and she couldn't help but shed tears.
"Hey, hey, hey, what's wrong Inoue, Inoue." Seeing Orihime Inoue shed tears in front of her, Rukia was inevitably a little panicked.
So, the two of them came to the rooftop of a high-rise building, and Orihime Inoue cried and told Rukia Kuchiki everything. Of course, the most important thing was that she could not participate in the battle, and Urahara Kisuke said that she would only be in the way. Objectively speaking, it is just a girl's willfulness.
"What did you say?" Rukia Kuchiki handed the tissue to Inoue Orihime and said, "That guy Urahara actually said that. I can't spare him."
After all, her qualifications are still shallow. Rukia Kuchiki has not yet reached the level of sophistication as Urahara Kisuke, and her perspective of observing things is not long enough, so she came to this conclusion.
"No, it doesn't matter." Inoue Orihime wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, and then said softly: "I feel like I feel a little calmer after telling Kuchiki-san. This must be better. After all, I really don't have much strength."
"That's not good." Kuchiki Rukia said loudly: "So far, haven't you been fighting? But to be excluded so easily, don't you feel unwilling?"
"I won't give in." Orihime Inoue said.
"Stop lying!"
"I didn't lie." Tears overflowed from the corners of Inoue Orihime's eyes again. She was already very fragile, "I won't give in."
Kuchiki Rukia handed over the tissue again.
"It's just...I feel very lonely if I can't fight with everyone..." Inoue Orihime ignored the tears that had flowed to her cheeks again and continued to speak softly, "But, compared to loneliness, I hate it more, and I hate procrastination even more. Everyone’s hindrance... Rather than becoming a burden to Liu Che’s classmates and everyone, it’s okay to be lonely on my own.”
What follows is a period of silence.
Then Rukia Kuchiki held Inoue Orihime's shoulders, made her eyes look at her, and said: "Listen, Inoue, those who hold back in the battle are not people without strength, but people without consciousness. In the battle so far, no one has been a burden, not even Sadatari, Ishida, and others, and Inoue, you too."
Kuchiki Rukia used her fingers to lift Inoue Orihime to wipe away her tears, "No matter if anyone is missing, I wouldn't be here now. Facing the decisive battle, there must be something you can do. Let's go find it together." Inoue..."
"Kuchiki-kun..."
But before she could get too sad, a girl with blond hair and two sky-high braids fell from the sky and landed heavily on the ground.
"Hi...Hiyori..."
Hiyori Sarugaki grabbed Inoue Orihime's collar and said of her own accord: "Inoue, I want to take you away right away. Hachi said he wants to see you if he has something to do."
"Ah?" Before Inoue could react, Hiyori Sarugaki pulled Orihime Inoue and flew into the sky again, leaving only the stunned Rukia Kuchiki in place.
"Who is she?"
Within a moment, several people arrived at the ruins of the Masked Legion.
Underground training base.
"Hachi, that's enough." Hiyori Sarugaki put down Inoue Orihime and said.
Hakugen Akida, a fat man with short pink hair, came to Inoue Orihime.
"Mr. Akita..." Among these people, Inoue Orihime only knows Rokukaru Kennishi more because they are classmates, and with other members of the Masked Legion, she only knows their names. Just to a certain extent.
"Excuse me...what do you want from me?" ..
