Chapter 196 Tearing Someone Else's Umbrella

In this world, deep in a forest.

When the sun shines down from the sky, through the layers of branches and leaves, and onto the ground covered with dead leaves,

A classic sliding partition door suddenly appeared here and opened automatically without any warning.

No one knows that this door is called the World Crossing Gate. It is the door used by the Shinigami when he comes from the Soul Realm to the real world or returns from the real world to the Soul Realm. It connects the broken world and is also an important door connecting the two worlds.

Led by several pitch-black hell butterflies, students studying at the Zhenyang Spiritual Arts Academy ran out of the boundary gate one after another and gathered in this forest, adding a lot of vitality to this desolate forest.

It's a pity that neither the birds and beasts in the forest nor the leaves falling from the dense trees can touch these people, let alone discover their existence.

Because they have no body, they are souls that no one can notice, let alone see, and they are spiritual bodies.

"Is this the real world?"

"It's so strange. I didn't expect to come to another world like this."

"What? Aren't you souls who were sent to Soul Society from this world?"

"Of course not, we are the natives of Soul Society."

"That's no wonder."

"Yes, we are souls who were sent to Soul Society from this world."

"But it's been almost fifty years since we left this world."

"I feel really missed."

One by one, the students began to whisper to each other, saying such things with great interest, especially those natives of the Soul Society who had never been to the present world. They were now listening with curiosity to the boasts of the students who were sent to the Soul Society from the present world. , it feels very fresh.

"Back here again."

Ai Ze didn't feel anything new, he just felt a little weird when he remembered what he had experienced when he first came to this world.

When he first came to this world, he was already dead, with only his soul left. Before he could react, he was buried by a god of death. As a result, he was sent to the corpse with a confused look on his face. world, and was even assigned to Zengmu District, which has the worst security.

Therefore, although he had been in this world before, he stayed there for who knows how long for three seconds. He didn't even know what the surroundings were like or where he was at that time, so he arrived in Soul Society in a daze.

Looking back now, Ai Ze still feels confused.

"I didn't even see clearly the face of the God of Death who was performing the soul burial for me. When I realized it, the soul burial was already over. Who can I ask to explain this?"

If you knew who the God of Death was at that time, you would definitely "thank" him (her) and let him (her) know how difficult the job of the God of Death was.

Ai Ze made a vow silently in his heart, but he didn't know if it would come true.

"Okay, pay attention to me."

At this time, Hisagi Shuhei brought his two teammates to the front of everyone.

"Next, until this time tomorrow, we will stay in this world to practice soul burial and conquer the void."

"First is the soul burial. This internship will last until evening, so you will gather here in the evening."

"After nightfall, we will take you to the venue where the simulated virtual reality is deployed for actual combat training. This training will continue until tomorrow morning."

In other words, in this internship, class one has two tasks in total, one is the soul burial in the first half,

One is the actual combat in the second half. The internship will last for a whole day and will not end until this time tomorrow.

"Now let's talk about soul burial first."

Hisagi Shuhei distributed a map to everyone.

"The internship locations for Soul Burial are several towns near this forest."

"We sixth graders have already done some research in advance. There has been turmoil in the area recently and many people died. So now there are many souls that need to be sent to Soul Society. Those souls are your internship this time. Target."

"Logically speaking, it's not surprising that there are so many souls, even if they attract Hollows, but recently the Shinigami from Division 13 happened to be sent here and killed many Hollows. It should be difficult to meet them again now. It’s empty.”

The Thirteenth Division is the purification team of the Gotei Thirteenth Division, and its area of ​​responsibility is to purify the Hollows in the real world and perform soul burial on them.

Since the Shinigami from Division 13 have come here, it is indeed possible that all the Hollows here have been killed.

As for the souls, if there are many, the other party may not be able to send them all away.

Therefore, this place was chosen as the internship location for this soul burial.

"Remember, you can only practice in these towns. Don't run around." Hisagi Shuhei said extremely seriously: "If you run around casually and meet a Hollow outside, something unexpected will happen." Don’t blame us for not warning us beforehand.”

Hearing this, several students who had the idea of ​​going outside for a walk were excited on the spot and stood at attention. Those students who were still nostalgic for the present world and wanted to visit the place where they lived also had no choice but to give up the idea. Don't dare to act rashly.

"There will be no danger in soul burial. You should act alone this time." Seeing that his words had successfully frightened these students, Hisagi Shuhei suddenly said with some relief: "Remember, don't go to the internship location. If you are outside, you must come back before evening to gather.”

"yes!"

The students in each class responded neatly, dispersed one by one, and ran towards the direction of the town they chose.

"Ai, which way are you going?"

"Want to come with us?"

Renji Abarai and Izuru Kira greeted Aizawa. They seemed to have chosen the same town and were preparing to act together before arriving in the town.

"No, I'll go to the other side."

Ai Ze suddenly shook his head when he saw that the two chose the largest town but the one farthest away from here.

"Anyway, I'm just looking for a few souls to practice soul burial. There's no need to choose carefully. I'll just choose the nearest place."

As he said that, Ai Ze turned around and disappeared in a flash.

This scene shocked some of the students who had not left, including Asan and Renji.

".——.That was Shunpo just now, right?"

"It's Shunpo.'

"Good guy, does it turn out that he is already able to use Shunpo proficiently?"

"It's so well hidden."

Everyone looked at each other and smiled bitterly.

"As expected of him."

Kira Izuru also smiled bitterly, but his words were full of admiration.

"What's so great about it?" Abarai Renji curled his lips and said, "Sooner or later I will master Shunpo."

With that said, Renji Abarai turned around and imitated Aizawa, trying to activate Shunpo, but in the end, he turned his left foot to his right foot and almost fell into the mud.

On the side, the three sixth graders also saw this scene and looked at each other.

"That's the rumored second-class spiritual power, right?" The only girl among the three spoke up first, and said with some amazement: "He is actually able to use Shunpo proficiently. He is indeed the strongest genius in thousands of years."

"It is indeed very powerful." Another boy among the three said in a low voice: "Even among us sixth graders, there are many who are not proficient in using Shunpo. He has only been in school for half a year and he can do it. No wonder Even the captain who came to inspect looked at him with admiration."

Matsuzaki Shuhei also took a deep look at the direction Aize left.

Before he graduated, he was favored by many seniors. He received an invitation early and was scheduled to be a member of the Gotei 13. Therefore, he was very famous in the Shino Spiritual Arts Academy and was regarded as a role model by many people.

But in terms of talent, there was no way he could match Aize.

He failed twice in the entrance examination of Zhenyang Spiritual Arts Academy, and it was through his unremitting efforts that he got to where he is today.

Compared with Aize, his talent is really not worth mentioning, at least Hisagi Shuhei thinks so.

Now, he finally saw the tip of the iceberg of Ai Ze's talents, letting him know that he was still too small for him before.

"He will definitely be able to graduate early and join the Gotei Thirteen, right?"

Perhaps, the two of them could become the same batch of newcomers joining the Gotei 13.

Thinking of this, Hisagi Shuhei glanced at the direction Aize left again, and then turned to his two teammates.

"Come on, we have things to do."

The two teammates nodded and left here together with Hisagi Shuhei.

"brush!"

In the town closest to the forest, Aize's figure has already appeared here and entered the town.

"It's really retro."

Looking at the scene in the town that was not much different from the Rukongai in Soul Society, Aize blinked.

"It should be the Showa era now, right? It seems to be around the 20th Showa era?"

Because there are still several decades before the official start of the original plot, the present world has not yet entered the modern era of high-rise buildings. Although samurai no longer appear on the streets as a matter of course, from what Hisagi Shuhei just said, It can be understood that the current era is still somewhat turbulent and not as peaceful as modern times.

"Brush!" "Brush!" "Brush!"————"

Aize activated Shunpo several times in a row, and his figure moved forward as if teleporting. Soon he came to the center of the town and saw a soul wandering around in the street.

Aize originally wanted to go over and have a chat with the other party, but suddenly changed his mind.

"Since you have already been caught in the rain, you have to tear other people's umbrellas apart!"

Ai Ze was so amused that he suddenly activated Shunpo and appeared in front of the soul.

"throat?"

The soul wandering on the street felt his eyes blurred, and before he could react, he was hit hard on the forehead.

Aize, who instantly stepped in front of the opponent, quickly pulled out the Zanpakutō from his waist at a speed invisible to the naked eye, and hit the opponent's forehead with the bottom of the Zanpakutō's handle.

When Aize took away his Zanpakutō, a circle with the word "soul" inside it already appeared on the opponent's forehead.

“Ahhhhh-!

In a panicked cry, the soul disappeared and was sent to Soul Society.

Ai Ze seemed to have found the fun and turned around to leave.

On this day, there were dozens more souls in the Soul Society who kept scolding their mothers——·
