Chapter 528: For the Dreamlike Future (End of This Volume)
The advice at that time was just like the regret at this moment. Ichimaru Gin could feel the sincerity in Hongjiang's words and gave the same answer as before.
"If that's the case, Matsumoto will definitely hate me, a selfish guy, and we owe you too much."
Hongjiang showed a helpless smile. From a rational point of view, it was of course the simplest and most reasonable for Ichimaru Gin to do those things at the beginning. In fact, they did so.
However, just like Ichimaru Gin felt, Hongjiang was also the one who was most reluctant to take this path. He sincerely hoped that Ichimaru Gin could walk in the sun and walk in the sun with Matsumoto, even if it would bring him a lot of trouble.
I don't know if he was soft-hearted, or if Aizen really understood some of the truths that Jupiter wanted him to understand.
If it was before, Hongjiang would definitely communicate with Ichimaru Gin without hesitation to form his most ideal situation. But now, he believes in his own strength more and is more willing to use his own strength to take the initiative to meet some troubles.
Just as Zaraki Souya opened up his ideals and ambitions, the guy named Jupiter also used his short life to make him no longer despise his own power.
But now that things have come to this, we can only plan for the next opportunity. It is not something that the war started by Aizen can bring about. If the Co-working Bureau is to truly become a bridge for the Soul Society to express friendship to the outside world, it will take an opportunity.
"What a stubborn kid, then you have to wait for a while." Hongjiang sighed lightly: "Before I came, Matsumoto came to see me, which made me feel more guilty."
Ichimaru Gin didn't say anything, but just stared at Hongjiang with a smile and squinted his eyes.
"Of course, I didn't forget the agreement with you and didn't tell her the truth about you!"
Who knows, Ichimaru Gin shook his head, "I'm not worried that you won't be able to help but tell Rangiku all the truth, I just think it's interesting."
"Interesting?"
"You, who are almost regarded as the biggest threat by Aizen, actually make me feel naive now, which really surprises me." Ichimaru Gin held his chin and said with interest: "Or, is this your new disguise? But I have to say, it doesn't suit you, Mr. Chouzuka."
Hongjiang spread his hands and smiled bitterly: "Isn't this my truest appearance? Am I so unlike a good person?"
"Maybe I am biased, but I have heard too many of your previous stories from Aizen, and I can initiate How can a person who fought against the Quincy clan, cruelly locked up the most promising Shiba Kaiyan into the maggot nest, and planned step by step to make Aizen the best carrier of the Hogyoku be associated with the word "good", right? "
Hongjiang curled his lips: "It is always difficult to satisfy both the process and the result. Most of the time, you have to choose one of them and play a not-so-glorious role. "
"Are you trying to say that playing a certain role is one thing, but your original intention is another thing?"
"That's the way it is, so you really misunderstand me!"
Ichimaru Gin laughed and didn't mean to dwell on this topic anymore. A person who is most similar to Aizen but least like him, it wouldn't be too bad to follow such a guy.
"According to your instructions, I have taken Nel and the others to the lower level of Hueco Mundo. It seems that the Soul Society sent Shunsui to the Hueco Mundo Palace once, but they came up empty-handed." Hong Jiang curled his lips and looked dissatisfied. It must be the intention of the old man Shan to let Shunsui go to the Hueco Mundo Palace alone to investigate. Although they came up empty-handed on the surface, they actually knew the answer they wanted to know. "Shunsui was not harassed by any big hollows. I believe that the captain-general has understood that although there are not many people in the Hueco Mundo Palace, it is still under my control. And it did not cause any trouble to Shunsui. I am afraid that they have already linked me and you together in their hearts." As Ichimaru Gin said, if only Ichimaru Gin withdrew from the Hueco Mundo Palace, it can only mean that he knew that he was at a disadvantage at the moment, and turned to continue to control the Hueco Mundo in the dark. But the fact that a single captain did not suffer any attack in the Hueco Mundo Palace is very intriguing. Is it a signal that Ichimaru Gin does not want to cause trouble again? Or is it that the real owner of Hueco Mundo is not willing to conflict with the god of death? That is, Ichimaru Gin and that Asido are both under Hongjiang's power.
"It's all speculation. No matter how true the speculation is, they can't touch me at this time." Hongjiang did not show panic, and continued to order: "If there are similar attempts later, just continue to ensure their safety, no need to make trouble."
"This is not a problem. After all, our focus will be on the lower Hueco Mundo next."
Ichimaru Gin also began to take it seriously, "According to your arrangement, the remaining six Espada under my command, and the four Espada under Asido who can rival the Espada, together with the remaining excellent Arrancar, can indeed cover a considerable area if they are fully dispersed. I think it will also be of some help to the real world."
Arrancars like Stark who stand at the top of Hueco Mundo have a huge impact on ordinary Hollows. This kind of obedience of subordinates to superiors is almost a rule imprinted in the blood of those ordinary Hollows.
Relying on the dispersed Arrancar to formulate rules within a certain range of the lower Hueco Mundo, thereby reducing the number of Hollows entering the real world, is a means to relieve the pressure of Hueco Mundo on the real world, and of course it is also the dumbest means.
The most ideal method so far is the ghost method developed by Hongjiang a hundred years ago, which can attract the lower-level hollows to continue killing. After all, the Hueco Mundo has almost no boundaries. Relying on a dozen or even dozens of hollows alone will relieve the pressure of the real world, but the effect will not be a qualitative breakthrough.
But this kind of method, let alone the hollows, even the death gods like Asido can't bear it. Turning the lower Hueco Mundo into a bloody killing field, just thinking about the terrible scene like hell makes people shudder.
"Let's arrange it like this. Your current efforts may change the future."
"Do you expect the Soul Society to rely on these and think that the death gods and hollows can cooperate?" Ichimaru Gin shook his head, "It's too unrealistic."
"Don't be too pessimistic, Ichimaru." Hongjiang raised his head, "Who can tell clearly about the future? Just like Aizen, isn't he now reduced to a container, a sad situation."
Ichimaru Gin remained silent. He always felt that in Hongjiang's eyes, the future is not clear, but he can see it roughly.
The other party seemed to be extremely confident that the day would come when the God of Death and the Hollow would join hands, but he had no idea what kind of twists and turns would be needed to eliminate the gap between the two.
"You and Aizen are very similar in this respect. You both seem to be able to see the future that we can't see. The future in his eyes is brilliant, cold, but real. The future you talk about is exciting, but also like a dream."
Hongjiang slowly closed his eyes, and the sunlight passed through his eyelids and dyed the world in his eyes red, as if there was endless blood.
"Does that guy Sar Apollo have anything to say to me?"
"Hmm?" Ichimaru Gin didn't react for a moment, then said: "He said he is still useful to you, so you shouldn't restrict his actions now."
"Why, are you finally going to be ruthless about this uncertainty, Mr. Diezuka?"
Hongjiang was silent for a while, "From the guy's tone, it seems that he has found something I want to know, so I'll give him another chance."
"Because he is useful?"
"No, because he still kept his promise to me. Of course, you can also understand that it is the result he may have discovered that saved his life."
Hongjiang's voice gradually became cold. For a guy like Sar Apollo who has an uncertain position and no bottom line except for his own research, it is reasonable not to keep him.
But he is willing to give him another chance. This may be a risk, but with Sar Apollo's full assistance, it will definitely help the thing he has always been afraid of.
The sealed king of the Quincy will eventually return one day, and the blood feud between the God of Death and the Quincy that is almost irreconcilable will also be settled at that time. It will be a tribulation full of blood and tears.
"Ichimaru, you said that the future I see is exciting, but it seems like a dream and makes people feel unreal, right?"
Ichimaru Gin nodded, and Hongjiang slowly opened his eyes, "But all the dreamlike futures will inevitably experience a bumpy and painful journey."
"So, for that dreamlike future, we must do everything we can to survive the destined tribulations."
"So, for that dreamlike future, I am willing to give all the guys who can become friends a chance, a chance to move towards the future together!"
