Chapter 1033 Open Your Heart
A captain died inexplicably, which made the atmosphere of the high-level Shinigami become weird. The strength of the Shinigami captain is not something that cats and dogs can deal with, so the murderer must be among them. For a moment, everyone knew that no one could be trusted, and at the same time, they were prepared. It is possible that the murderer will continue to attack other captains, and the next target is likely to be themselves.
Everyone looked at the corpse on the wall, and their expressions became subtle.
"I will keep an eye on you." Soi-Feng said to Duran and turned away. She was going to investigate.
Duran is innocent. What's the point of keeping an eye on me? It's obviously Aizen who is deceiving you.
"You are really, is it necessary to say so harshly? They don't know anything." Denise felt that Duran didn't need to say that at all. Even if it was to anger Aizen, there was no need to establish herself as everyone's enemy: "Is this interesting?"
Duran laughed dryly. He was just talking fast for a while. He didn't expect Aizen to be so good at disguising himself, which made all the Shinigami have a good impression of him, so he immediately became the target of public criticism when he started to mock. Sure enough, the world owed Aizen an Oscar.
"This Aizen is a man of character. He has been pretending to be a grandson in Soul Society for hundreds of years. He is almost a Ninja Turtle. He is really good." It is true that Aizen has been studying the Hogyoku for a long time, even earlier than Urahara Kisuke, but Aizen has always been very secretive. Even if he has taken the lives of many souls with the potential of Shinigami, he has never been discovered. In people's minds, he has always been a humble and harmonious, approachable, loyal and reliable comrade, colleague, senior, and captain.
Who would have thought that Aizen is a guy who will do anything for power? The reason why he took action this time was because he knew that Urahara Kisuke had sealed the semi-finished Hogyoku he was researching into Rukia Kuchiki's body, so he used the name of the Central Forty-Sixth Chamber to kill Rukia, just for half of the Hogyoku.
Aizen already has a semi-finished Hogyoku. As long as he gets Urahara Kisuke's semi-finished Hogyoku, he can synthesize a complete Hogyoku. At that time, he will transcend the five realms and will no longer be a Shinigami, nor a Hollow, nor a human, but a god-like existence. To achieve this goal, he killed thousands of innocent people and framed his colleagues. Now he is finally only one step away from success.
As long as he gets the complete Hougyoku, then whether it is Bankai or Musou Bankai, it will be nothing but pediatrics, and Aizen will be the one who controls the world.
Because the complete Hougyoku will make Aizen immortal, and at the same time, Hougyoku will allow Aizen to continuously evolve towards the state he hopes for. No matter what danger he encounters, Hougyoku will allow Aizen to move to a higher level and make him the most perfect existence in the world.
In short, Hougyoku is a very powerful thing, so before the dawn of victory, Aizen decided to hide himself, steadily play his Ninja Turtle spirit to fake his death to avoid the suspicion of others, and sneak into the dark to continue the conspiracy.
"Captain, what should we do?" Kira Izuru is the vice-captain of the third team. After Duran defeated Ichimaru Gin and became the captain, he also became Duran's assistant. Now there is a riot below and the captain died tragically above. The Soul Society has reached a turbulent time. Although their third team is a support force, they can't sit idly by and do nothing.
"Send someone to surround the Central 46th Room."
The vice-captain was horrified: "Captain, what are you going to do?"
"Of course, we are protecting the sages of the Central 46th Room. Now everyone has their own things to do. If our third division also diverts attention due to the chaos, then it is very likely that the really important part will be hit hard, so our responsibility is to protect the important parts of the Soul Society."
Kirara Izuru thought it made sense: "I know, I'll do it now."
Duran didn't know if the guys in the Central 46th Room were still alive, and they might have been killed by Aizen. Obviously, Aizen was also very unhappy with the Central 46, so he took a wave away before leaving, which was also a good thing for the God of Death.
The people of the third division surrounded the Central 46th Room, and no fly could fly in.
Duran came to the battlefield of Ichigo and Renji bored, watching the two young men fighting for their respective ideals.
Ichigo was very simple to save people, but Renji was much more complicated. On the one hand, Renji also wanted to save people, but as a god of death in Soul Society, he was bound by the rules. At the same time, he hated Ichigo. If it weren't for Ichigo, Rukia would not have lost her power as a god of death. The mixture of various emotions made him stimulate his spiritual pressure and continue to swing his sword at Ichigo. In fact, Renji also had a fantasy in his heart that maybe Ichigo could defeat himself and more captains behind him and finally rescue Rukia.
The strength of the vice-captain is completely different from that of the third seat. In addition, Renji has worked hard to practice. Although his talent is average, the results of his efforts are still very objective. The spiritual pressure exploded and attacked Ichigo.
Renji's Zanpakutō is Snake Tail Maru, a retractable Zanpakutō that can perform long-range stabbing and can also be used as a whip to make the blades bend and attack the enemy's unexpected blind spots.
Duran watched the two rookies pecking at each other, saying that although Renji lived a long time, he did not have the talent of Ichigo. Renji's spiritual pressure is not as much as Ichigo, so it can only be said that the bloodline plug-in is the best way to fight against the time of practice.
Ichigo really has such a good bloodline that Renji's outstanding strength, which stands out among his peers, is no match for Ichigo.
"Ichigo is really like many novel protagonists. He will fight monsters above his level, and every time he is mocked by his opponent." Thinking of how the Shinigami always looked down on Ichigo, who had just become a Shinigami, before the fight, and how he opened his heart to Ichigo after the fight, Duran felt that these guys were all masochists.
At the beginning, Ichigo was indeed knocked out by Renji, but he was always calm. As long as he didn't fall down, he could still fight. However, Renji's Zanpakutō is indeed difficult to defend. The attack angles are varied, and he will turn halfway. Although he fights with courage and strong spiritual pressure, he is not as experienced as Ichigo.
Renji is used to this kind of battle, and his speed and skills are better than Ichigo. Unfortunately, he didn't kill Ichigo at the beginning, and Ichigo had no chance after he got used to his attack. And Renji is also very loyal. Seeing that Ichigo can speak frankly to save Rukia, but he can only suppress his emotions. As a childhood sweetheart, he is not as good as Rukia's friend who has only known her for two months. Renji is unwilling to accept it.
To save or not, Renji has been struggling. He expects a miracle, so in the end he gave up his advantage and skills to compete with Ichigo in spiritual pressure. He hopes that in this final duel, he can see the direction, whether to save or not.
If he loses, then he can save. If he wins, then Rukia's life is over.
The two men desperately released spiritual pressure, and finally Zangetsu cut open the snake tail pill with higher spiritual pressure and stronger sharpness, and opened Renji's chest all the way.
At this moment, Renji saw his heart clearly. He also wanted to save Rukia, but he was not as bold as Ichigo. If there is still a chance, he will definitely save Rukia next time.
Blood splashed three feet high, and Renji's consciousness was blurred. He felt that he was going to die: "Save~ Rukia..." He entrusted his wish to Ichigo.
Ichigo finally understood that the other party also cared about Rukia, but because the place of Soul Society made him unable to express his feelings, so he answered seriously: "Yeah, otherwise why do you think I am standing here?"
Duran looked at the two young people entrusting their wishes, and thought to himself, is this okay? When Renci was asked to confess his feelings before, he was not so frank. But now he is willing to entrust the girl's life to someone he has only met twice. Besides, the other party is a man. Isn't he afraid of getting jealous?
