Chapter 591 Hong Jiang's Questioning

So, the reason why Hongjiang suddenly cut off contact with them was that he wanted to stay in this dangerous place. Yoruichi understood what Urahara meant, but the question still had to go back to the more specific step: "What else does that guy want to do by staying here?" To be honest, they have already gained enough information about the existence of the Stern Cross Knights, the Holy Text, and the ability of the Star Chapter to seize Bankai. There may be many things they don't know, but compared with the current danger, are those unknown information worth taking risks? No, such cost-effective thinking is not even suitable for the current situation. The Shinigami and the Quincy will eventually fight, and in Yoruichi's eyes, the Star Chapter that can seize Bankai is the biggest reliance of the Quincy in this war. And even if this speculation is just her wishful thinking, it doesn't matter, because the captains with Bankai are the biggest reliance of the Shinigami in this war. Even if the Quincy still has means against them, as long as they can't affect the Bankai, the root, then the Shinigami can fight. It's not that the information that the Quincy may have hidden means is not important, but is this information really worth a top Shinigami fighter risking his life to obtain? And, is there any information that is equally important or even more important than the Star Chapter, which is only at the possible stage. Yoruichi really doesn't understand what Hongjiang is thinking, and Urahara, who was asked, was rarely at a loss: "I don't know what Hongjiang wants to do by staying..." "Huh?" "Maybe he discovered some potential crisis from some minor details, or maybe he thinks there is enough time for him to do something, even if it is a little bit helpful to the future war." Urahara rarely said such vague words, as if even he was a little confused about Hongjiang's thoughts this time. "But I think he must have remained calm, knowing how impossible it was to carry out the so-called decapitation operation in front of the entire Stern Cross Knights. In other words, what he wanted to do might be a little risky, but in his opinion, the probability of success was not small." Yoruichi also knew that it was unrealistic to try to figure out what Hongjiang wanted to do now, but he couldn't help but mutter: "But since the probability of success is not small, you can at least talk to me, let's discuss it..." "Anyway, you come and make peace with us first, I'll call Innex over, even if there is any accident on Hongjiang's side, we can support him as much as possible." Urahara obviously didn't want to waste his mind on this problem without any basis for thinking. He knew very well that what he had to do was to make as complete preparations as possible for the retreat. Yoruichi agreed and set off to meet with Urahara, but the doubts in her heart could not be completely eliminated, and she could only suppress them in the deepest part of her heart as much as possible to prevent them from erupting. At the same time, she was silently praying for Hongjiang in her heart, praying that no matter what he did, he would be able to come back safely, just like countless adventures before. However, what Hongjiang was doing on the other side seemed to be quite different from the "dangerous" things that Yoruichi and Urahara imagined. On the one hand, he was indeed facing Quincies, and not even one or two, but ten Quincies. However, these Quincies were not the top-level Quincies of the Sterncross Knights, but just ordinary Quincies called Holy Soldiers. In terms of strength, these people were slightly stronger than the average members of the Gotei 13, but this did not make much difference to Hongjiang. Each of these ten Quincies had their ability to move and speak sealed by his ghost way. Some of them had eyes full of resentment, and some of them were trembling slightly, as if they had anticipated their own end. "Sure enough, I still forgot those two names. Anyway, those two guys are a pair of twins. You should know who they are, right?" Hongjiang said to himself. There was already a corpse of a Quincy under his feet, and he ignored it.

He walked towards another Quincy with a face full of resentment, untied the ghost on his mouth and asked: "Tell me, who are they?" "How can I answer the question of a god of death like you!" But before the man finished speaking, a column of blood spurted out of his throat. The rest of the people didn't even see how Hongjiang made the move, but no one would doubt that it was the guy in front of them who made the move. This silent pressure made more Quincy faces become heavy, which was why Hongjiang was so impatient. He needed to break the psychological defenses of these people as much as possible. "In the Stern Cross Knights, such people should be very special. You all know it. Tell me who they are." "What do you want to do with them?" Another column of blood rose, Hongjiang sighed, and said to himself helplessly: "Don't you know the situation? I'm asking questions, and you only have two choices: answer or not answer." As he said, he walked to another person, but the man didn't say a word after his ghost was untied. Hongjiang was too lazy to waste time with him. He killed him with a knife and walked slowly to the next person. But in fact, he was far from being as relaxed as he appeared to be. Being able to come to the Invisible Empire in advance gave him a lot to do. He had to crack the star seal that could seize the Bankai in advance, Yhwach who had not yet recovered and might be in a weak state, and the Stern Cross Knights and the more elite guards among them. Among these targets, the most attractive one is undoubtedly Yhwach, the source of all evil. It can be said that even if there is a 1% chance of getting rid of him, Hongjiang is willing to try. Unfortunately, let alone the disadvantageous situation that the Stern Cross Knights have been damaged and the enemy's vigilance must be upgraded. Even when he first came up with the idea of ​​a decapitation operation, considering the combat power of the Stern Cross Knights, the probability of being able to approach Yhwach was probably less than one in ten thousand, let alone getting rid of him. Now that the star seal has been obtained, the existence and even the strength of the Stern Cross Knights have been basically evaluated, it is completely enough to return to the Soul Society. But this is from the perspective of war, or from the perspective of people like Urahara and Yoruichi who were unable to witness the tragic war with their own eyes. For Hongjiang, this was far from enough, especially after the initial decapitation operation was rejected, a thing that he had temporarily forgotten suddenly surfaced in his mind. When he was thinking about decapitating Yhwach, in his previous life, the other party carried out a sad decapitation operation on the Shinigami. Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni, the Shinigami who can represent the history of Soul Society, became the first captain of the Gotei 13 to die. This was due to the contribution of Yhwach, and the help of the twins of the Sterncross Knights. It was them who led to Yamamoto's death! . :
