Chapter 636 Accepting Death

Yes, if ten thousand people were to think about it, none of them would think that Yamamoto was a coward. Compared to lingering on the hospital bed, dying in a glorious battle on the battlefield is undoubtedly a better destination.

Hong Jiang is naturally included in this list, but at this moment, he cannot calmly choose a way to die for Yamamoto, or in any mentality.

He understands all the reasons, but he just can't accept the fact that he will face Yamamoto's death without making any effort!

He grabbed Urahara's collar and spoke to him in an almost commanding tone, "No matter how I die, it is what the old man Shan expects. I just know that he can still be saved and he doesn't have to go that far!"

"I am prepared for whatever he will become. What I want is for him to wake up. It doesn't matter if he scolds me or even beats me, or says that I have tarnished his life. What I want is for him to tell me in person whether it is right or wrong!" Hongjiang gritted his teeth and continued, "None of us has the power to decide how he should die. Even if this day has to come, I want him to make this decision himself. Do you understand, Urahara!"

Yes, Hongjiang's idea is understandable. People always regret their powerlessness when they lose their loved ones. In other words, if they have the ability to change everything when their loved ones can still be saved, even if the chance is only one in ten thousand, most people will not give up easily.

Urahara raised his hands as if to throw, "I understand, I will try my best, Hongjiang."

Seeing this, Hongjiang also loosened the other's collar and whispered back, "I'm so sorry, but I think you can understand my feelings."

Urahara nodded, "But to be honest, I'm not sure. I said that before just because I didn't want you to have too much hope..."

"Sometimes, the greater the hope, the greater the disappointment..."

Hongjiang sighed. How could he not understand this truth? He also thought about what he should do if Yamamoto could never regain consciousness.

The answer is that there is no solution. It is impossible for him to give up treating Yamamoto now. Maybe as time goes by, if the other party still can't wake up, he will have different ideas, but that's all in the future.

Now he only hopes that Yamamoto can survive, to see or even hear him end this war that has been entangled for a thousand years, and know that he will bring peace to the Soul Society again!

"Let's go find Mayuri Kurotsuchi." Hiroe said, raising his right hand, and Yamamoto's black robe wrapped around him tightly, and he put it on his shoulders, "I think you will need to use the equipment of the Technology Development Bureau."

"Urahara and I can take old man Yamamoto, you still need to go to the 5th Division?" Yoruichi suggested.

As the captain of the 5th Division, Hiroe also needs to deal with some things of the 5th Division at this moment. If nothing unexpected happens, there must be a mess there.

Hongjiang shook his head, "Leave it to Haiyan. It's hard for me to do anything else except saving the old man Shan."

Yueyi stepped forward and patted Hongjiang on the shoulder, "Don't put too much pressure on yourself. No matter what, I'm by your side."

"Besides, you must not fall down now." Pu Yuanyuan cheered Hongjiang up in another way, "Whether the old man Shan can be saved depends on you to maintain your Bankai now."

Hongjiang also took a deep breath, "Thank you, let's go."

At the same time, on the other side, Haiyan was hurriedly directing the team members who could still move to assist the people sent by the Fourth Division to send the seriously injured and slightly injured to the Fourth Division for treatment.

Perhaps because there were no members of the Stern Cross Knights nearby, the Fifth Division's barracks were almost not damaged, but the soldiers who were on alert everywhere because of the alert order suffered extremely heavy casualties.

In addition to him, the deputy captain, there were only two remaining officers, and both were seriously injured. It was still unknown whether they could survive and wake up.

It is initially estimated that at least one-third of the ordinary soldiers died. This battle was a heavy loss for the 5th Division.

The most frightening thing is not just this. In Haiyan's eyes, the tragic situation of the 5th Division is just a microcosm of the Gotei 13. Although the captain and the vice-captain were not there during the surprise attack and could not provide protection for the team members.

But considering the alert order issued by Yamamoto earlier, in fact, the various divisions have been jointly guarding various locations in the Soul Society, and the remaining captains are not looking for protection from the division.

Therefore, the loss of the entire Gotei 13 may also be close to one-third, or even more than this.

This is a tragic battle situation that Haiyan has never seen or even heard of since he was born. The enemy they are facing this time is an unprecedented powerful character.

Thinking about it this way, Hongjiang was lucky to have only brought a few of them to the enemy's base camp for so long.

But Haiyan was not lucky about this. He only hated that he could not come back earlier to share the pressure for the Gotei 13. Maybe if he came back earlier, he could save dozens or even hundreds of people.

"You should also come back with me to the team for treatment, Vice Captain Shiba."

Haiyan turned around and saw that it was Yamada Hanatarō who was leading the team. He was also injured in the battle with the Stern Cross Knights in the Invisible Empire. It stands to reason that he should go to the Fourth Division to treat his injuries.

"No, you should take the wounded back first." Haiyan rejected the other party's request. At this time, there were more people who deserved to be treated as soon as possible. "I will lead people to continue searching for possible survivors, and then I will send them to your Fourth Division."

Hanatarō saw Haiyan's firm attitude and it was difficult to persuade him. In fact, with the means of the Fourth Division, if there were still survivors nearby, they would not be able to find them. Haiyan's efforts were destined to be in vain.

"Maybe it's not appropriate to say this, but you still have to try to accept death at this time." Hanatarō said calmly: "Don't force yourself too much. The Soul Society still needs you to protect it, Vice Captain Shiba."

Haiyan showed an extremely reluctant smile, "Thank you, I will pay more attention."

Yes, learning to accept death may be what the Soul Society at this time, or the Gotei 13, should learn the most.

Even though teams after teams were sent to the Fourth Division, keeping the members of the Fourth Division busy, many people still could not escape the clutches of death.

Even some members of the Fourth Division, who were used to seeing death, felt confused, and some even couldn't help crying, not to mention the people of other divisions.

Even the 11th Division, which admired fighting the most, did not feel happy for having survived a tough battle. For everyone, there was no need for an accurate number. The corpses everywhere were enough to make them confused and sad.

This sorrow of death seemed to be unable to be washed away no matter how fierce the rain was.

This was the cloud of sorrow called war, which once again shrouded the sky above the Soul Society, and the pain they were experiencing at this moment was just the beginning.
