Chapter 241 240: The Disappearance of Seireitei

Bankai·Dragon Eight Divisions·Gandharva.

As one of the abilities of Arima Shizuya's Dragon Eight Divisions, its ability was "announced" many years ago.

It is to spread the user's spiritual power over a large area by releasing the sword.

Looking back many years ago, Arima Shizuya once used this ability to spread his own spiritual power to cover the entire Soul Society.

It did facilitate the actions of many people, but because Arima Shizuya was injured, he was unable to continue.

In normal times, this ability may be useful...

But if it is seen at the moment, what use can this thing be?

Not only others, but even Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni, who was in a state of confrontation, frowned in confusion at this moment.

Puzzled.

But more of it is an inexplicable palpitation.

It was as if something invisible was brewing and transforming rapidly at this moment, until it became an existence that even the captain could not ignore.

Ding...

Accompanied by a faint hum, invisible waves spread in the air.

Just like a boulder falling from the sky into a deep lake, just such a light "hit" caused waves.

Until everyone present clearly felt that something was changing quietly.

——What is it?

Without waiting for anyone to ask, Arima Shizuka, who had his eyes slightly closed, opened his eyes at this moment.

A plain smile appeared on his face, and at this moment, he used a tone of confidence.

He said softly.

"Master Shan, do you remember what I did in the Soul Society before?"

"..."

It is not a rational act to talk to someone. For unknown things, even a strong person like Yamamoto would not act rashly.

The atmosphere was a little subtle, but it did not make Arima Shizuka restrain himself.

He instead showed a more subtle smile.

"A long time ago, I mentioned..."

"Gandharva's ability can increase my spiritual power and spread it all over the Soul Society."

"Based on this premise, the soul particle communication network I built can connect the spiritual power between each other, so as to realize the normal use of the Eight Methods of Kidō."

As a member of the Soul Society, Arima Shizuya wants to improve the combat effectiveness of ordinary soldiers...

It is not a particularly strange thing to achieve the goal in this way.

It's just that the situation has obviously changed now.

This guy is a traitor.

So...

Now look back and re-examine it.

Does Arima Shizuya's behavior itself have a deeper purpose?

"Could it be..."

Kyōraku Shunsui, who has the fastest brain, changed his face almost immediately. He groaned and attracted the attention of the people around him.

"Captain Kyōraku, what happened?!"

It seems that his throat is a little dry. Hearing the question, Kyōraku Shunsui did not rush to answer, but grinned.

I couldn't help but whispered.

"No... this should be impossible..."

Even though they were far apart.

But Arima Shizuya seemed to have heard the other party's whisper, and smiled in a very light tone at this moment.

"Unfortunately, it is the 'impossible' that Captain Kyoraku guessed."

As soon as the voice fell.

A moment of hesitation flashed across Arima Shizuya's eyes, but it was only for a moment.

His right hand was slightly raised at this moment.

As if he was holding up something extremely heavy, his arms couldn't help shaking slightly at this moment.

And at the same moment, as if some mysterious instructions were issued, everything responded violently!

The entire platform...

No, it should be said that the entire Soul Society.

All began to shake violently at this moment!

Boom boom boom boom! ! !

Almost visible to the naked eye...

The broken stone bricks under everyone's feet broke at this moment and were crushed by invisible forces.

The 12th Division's barracks.

Mayuri Kurotsuchi, who was treating his injuries alone in the laboratory, was concentrating on something.

Standing next to him was Otonmu, who was as wooden as a puppet. The communication between the two was efficient and brief.

"Hemostatic forceps..."

"Bone saw..."

"Raw meat potion No. 3..."

Such prompts appeared continuously, and Otonmu implemented them one by one, perfectly executing the other party's orders.

At this time with a bit of weird "warmth", suddenly... the unexplained earthquake broke the delicate atmosphere.

"What?"

As calm as Mayuri Kurotsuchi, his eyebrows could not help but wrinkle into a ball.

The Soul Society is not a natural space, and there are no earthquakes, landslides, and tsunamis in it on weekdays.

In other words.

This must be a phenomenon caused by some changes.

It should be some stupid people who don't know how to restrain themselves in public, and finally caused this result.

"Otonmu, you go..."

Before the voice fell, Otonmu Kurotsuchi couldn't help shrinking his eyes for a while.

She rushed forward almost reflexively.

She held Mayuri in her arms - and a moment later, the ceiling above their heads collapsed, submerging both of them...

At the Shihouin family, Yujuro commanded the servants to start the action.

At the Kuchiki family, Hisa was also taken away by other members of the Sixth Division.

Even in the prison used for accommodation, the imprisoned "traveling disasters" now saw the hope of escaping.

Everything, with Arima Shizuya's "atrocities", began to change like a butterfly effect.

And scenes like this are constantly repeated.

The Gotei 13...

No, the scope is not just that simple.

The terrifying collapse trend, like a collapsed dam, took shape in an instant at the speed of flood discharge.

The endless vibration seemed to be enough to shake the whole world, accompanied by the exclamations and screams of the crowd.

"What happened?!"

It seemed that there was an invisible earth dragon rolling and wandering in it.

No one responded to Soi-Fong's roar. During this period, everyone could only show their own abilities to avoid being buried under the ground.

The big dog decisively released his Bankai. By suppressing the output of spiritual power, the Black Rope Heavenly Punishment Ming Wang revealed his true form, but it did not affect the surrounding environment.

"Everyone, please climb to the palm of Ming Wang's hand together!"

The captains helped each other and gathered together.

Thanks to the existence of this liberation, it was not crowded at this moment.

Even Shifengyuan Yoruichi, who was originally on the edge, appeared here with others.

Even Kurosaki Ichigo was also brought to the palm and landed in the corner.

Soi-Fong couldn't help but glance at the side. Yoruichi looked completely guilty and didn't respond at all.

"..."

The atmosphere was a little subtle, but at this moment, it was obviously not the time to pursue such old things.

"Everyone, take a look at this."

Because in the direction of Kyoraku Shunsui's finger, all the captains showed an expression close to horror.

The throat was tight, and even the breathing was a little sobbing.

Even in such a pressing and shocking situation, Ukitake Jushiro, who was standing beside him, finally said in a trembling voice.

"Seireitei... disappeared?"

Seireitei.

Disappeared.

It is obviously quite unreasonable to directly link the two together.

After all, the former is the land of heavy spirits in Soul Society, where the largest number of Shinigami gather, and to this day...

It has never been conquered.

And the so-called disappearance?

How can such a scene as evaporation from the earth be worthy of such an important place.

Several natives still reacted in this way, and as for the only "outsider" here, Kurosaki Ichigo also showed a very shocked expression.

"How could it be... like this..."

The group of travelers who invaded Seireitei through cannons naturally overlooked this land of heavy spirits in Soul Society before entering.

Such a wide and exaggerated place.

It has completely disappeared at this moment? !

However...

"That's the fact."

Seireitei has disappeared.

Trampled and destroyed by the invisible force... The buildings and high walls of the past no longer have any traces left.

As far as the eye can see, there are no other outlines except for the ruins.

With just one person's strength, he destroyed the houses that could accommodate more than a million people in an instant.

Although Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni was also shocked, his insight and character as the captain-general.

He was able to respond in the calmest tone at this moment.

This level of power...

"It's impossible."

The fragments of soil under his feet have all disappeared, and he used his spiritual power to build a space under his feet that was enough to stand firmly.

Arima Shizuka also maintained his original posture, with a little emotion in his tone.

"That's true, but... this is not a whim of mine."

"I'm sorry, Mr. Shan. I didn't tell you the truth."

"My Bankai Gandharva's ability is not only to amplify spiritual power..."

Based on my own spiritual power, it has been greatly amplified, showing an expansion trend.

That is just the first step to achieve the goal.

And the real purpose.

"It is to put my mark on all inorganic matter within the reach of my ability."

"Become a part of my rule."

Gandharva is the god of incense.

Unpredictable and elusive, naturally, is also its essence.

Therefore...

Not telling the truth is also a way of revealing one's nature.

The essence of the spiritual particle communication network is not to facilitate communication and increase combat effectiveness.

It is to facilitate Arima Shizuka's "control" of it.

"Otherwise, why do you think I have gone to all places in the Soul Society for so many years?"

The answer became extremely clear at this moment.

——It's all foreshadowing for today.

The decades-long layout itself was for today's trip. Now that it has been revealed, there is no turning back.

"Of course, it is meaningless to simply destroy it."

"I am not a bloodthirsty, destructive person."

"So this behavior itself... also has my purpose."

While moaning softly, Arima Shizuya's right hand suddenly clenched tightly at this moment.

Accompanying this action of his.

The world seemed to be overwhelmed by it at this moment... and began to tremble!

Bang bang bang bang bang! ! !

Continuous vibrations were heard, and the captains looked at the ruins of the Seireitei, which began to tremble violently and shatter...

Until it emerged from it.

A blue 'ocean'.

Bright and dazzling, like the sky reflected on the earth. Such a bright scene, just the moment you see it, you can no longer look away.

Shocked.

The more emotion is that of speechless astonishment.

"This is……"

At this moment, a person as broad and knowledgeable as Unohana Retsu could not help but slightly widen his eyes.

"It broke away from its form and returned to its original appearance..."

Spirit son.

That's right, that's right.

"That's what I'm here for."

As we all know, although everything in Soul Society has a physical form, in essence, it is some form of spirit son.

This is also reflected in many scenes in the chapter of the Thousand-Year Blood War (when the Quincy under the Holy Body wants to use his abilities, there will be scenes of the Seireitei building being disassembled)

Dots of azure starlight began to gather, like stars over the moon, flowing towards Arima Shizuya.

It would not be surprising if it was only on a small scale.

but……

This is a ‘flood’ based on the entire Seireitei.

What was once a faint twinkling like a star is now as full and stirring as a stream!

In just a few breaths of pause, Arima Shizuya's whole body was already covered in azure light.

Disassembled, analyzed, and condensed the entire Seireitei's spirit.

Arima Shizuya's momentum is also rising at this moment - as if something invisible is changing quietly, the former captain of the fifth division.

At this moment, he calmly curled up his right hand.

strength……

It is constantly overflowing.

Just treat it as a simple try.

Arima Shizuya felt so blessed that he pointed in the direction of Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni.

"Eight Methods of the Ghost Way: Stupid Blind Dragon..."

With a low groan, the next moment...

blue ocean.

Boiling.

Arima Shizuya's lingering torrent of spiritual beings weaved three snake-like objects with distinct scales, waving their long bodies in the air like pillars holding up the sky...

He ran over hard in the direction of Old Man Shan!

The old man's pupils couldn't help but shrink for a while, and he immediately took a defensive posture.

When the two collide, it's like ink sinking into the deep sea...

There are no surprises.

The figure of old man Yamamoto was directly swallowed up in this intertwined torrent.

Arima Shizuya's eyes reflected azure light, and his expression showed a bit of divinity inexplicably.

The so-called Eight Methods of Ghost Path.

From the beginning, it was something you created just for yourself.
