Chapter 1091: Making a Spectacular Appearance in the World!
Chapter 1091: Making a Spectacular Appearance in the World!
"This is actually a Menos! Why would a Menos appear in the World of the Living?
And what about that Arrancar just now? Didn't the Soul Society and Hueco Mundo agree to a ceasefire?"
Hearing Ryūnosuke's incessant babbling filled with panic, Shishimaru Tsume snapped irritably, "Stop your incessant whining! Use the Denreishinki to contact the Soul Society immediately and report what you saw.
I’d rather die fighting and take a few more Hollows with me. Dying like this would be such a waste!"
The two of them had only recently joined the 13th Division, and while they were more than capable of handling regular Hollows, even the weakest of Menos, the Gillians, were far beyond their current capabilities.
Gillians, despite their slow movement, could be evaded using Shunpo. However, the area was swarming with Hollows attracted by the Hollow bait. By the time they realized their predicament, they were completely surrounded.
As the Gillian's Cero gathered and fired toward them, the already battered Shishimaru Tsume and Ryūnosuke closed their eyes, resigned to their fate.
"Boom——————!"
But just as they thought their end had come, a massive explosion echoed beside them.
When they opened their eyes, bewildered, they saw a new figure standing before them.
The figure had long silver hair tied in a simple ponytail, a Zanpakutō at the waist, and a black Shihakushō with a white Haori over it. The "5" on the back of the Haori indicated the division to which the figure belonged.
"The Menos' Cero was actually caught bare-handed!"
Ryūnosuke, his face pale with shock, realized that the red Cero, which should have hit them, had been caught by the newcomer with a single hand!
He remembered the lectures at the Seireitei Academy, where they were told that Cero was a special technique exclusive to Menos.
Even a lower-level Menos like a Gillian could put up a tough fight against a typical Fukutaichō.
But what he was seeing now was the Menos' strongest attack, Cero, being casually caught by a single hand by the captain standing before them!
This was a Cero from three Gillians firing simultaneously! Even for a captain, facing a Cero with three times the power would normally require the use of Kidō or the release of a Zanpakutō to defend against it.
But this captain not only caught the Cero with a single hand but also seemed to have plenty of strength to spare. This was completely different from what he had learned at the Seireitei Academy!
And wasn't the 5th Division known for being just slightly stronger than the "Medical Corps", the "Rescue Corps"? Why was this captain so powerful?
The red Cero beam, upon hitting Yecheng's palm, was deflected like water hitting a rock.
To prevent further destruction, Yecheng coldly commanded, and in the next second, the Cero was crushed by his bare hands, leaving Ryūnosuke staring in disbelief.
At the same time, Soifon, Rōjūrō Otoribashi, and Renji Abarai appeared before the three Gillians, drawing their Zanpakutō and instantly slaying the Menos.
"Roar, Ash Cat!"
A female voice echoed from the darkness, and a sand-laden mist instantly swept through the area.
By the time Shishimaru Tsume and Ryūnosuke realized what was happening, the Hollows that had surrounded them were being torn apart with agonizing screams.
"Big Brother Yecheng, how did you end up in the World of the Living?"
In the blink of an eye, the three-headed Menos and the nearly hundred Hollows that had surrounded them were obliterated.
Seeing the sudden appearance of these Shinigami, Ryunosuke, despite being a newcomer, knew that they were truly powerful figures.
Just as he was unsure how to communicate with these high-ranking Shinigami, a surprised voice from beside him, belonging to Shino Shishimaru, made him freeze in place.
His partner actually knew these powerful figures?
"Tsume, how are you here in the World of the Living?"
As Ikakku Shishimaru's sister, Yecheng naturally knew Shino, and they had known each other for quite a while.
After all, they both hailed from Rukongai, and Yecheng had known the Shishimaru siblings even back then.
"I'm now a Shinigami in the 13th Division, and today I just finished taking over the duties from a man named Zenjiro Kuroudani. From today on, I'll be responsible for the Karakura Town area."
Indeed, the idol Shinigami that Shino admired was none other than Yecheng.
Both being third seats, Shino always thought that Big Brother Yecheng was much stronger than her own good-for-nothing brother.
And besides being strong, Yecheng was also handsome, unlike her brother, who had a big bald head and a brain full of nothing but muscles.
"Zenjiro Kuroudani... that guy is back in Soul Society."
Yecheng had a clear memory of the spiky-haired Zenjiro Kuroudani.
One of the two true gods in the Shinigami world, second only to the great god.
He not only dominated the early protagonist, Ichigo Kurosaki, but even when facing Aizen, who had fused with the Hōgyoku, he managed to seal Aizen for a full five seconds using only his Shikai!
Don't underestimate those five seconds. Aizen had been almost invincible against other Shinigami captains, taking them down in mere seconds.
In other words, Zenjiro Kuroudani's ability to seal Aizen for five seconds was equivalent to five Tōshirō Hitsugayas.
Furthermore, during his long tenure in the spiritually rich Karakura Town, Zenjiro Kuroudani had faced various major and minor bosses, and he had never lost a single battle. His only defeat was at the hands of the great god, which is why Yecheng considered him one of the two true gods without any hesitation.
"Big Brother Yecheng, what about you? Why did you suddenly come to Karakura Town?"
When Shino asked again, Yecheng's wandering thoughts were pulled back, and Ryunosuke, who had been standing quietly, timidly asked, "Didn't Captain Yecheng and the others come because they received our distress signal?"
Before Yecheng could respond, Shino gave her partner a sharp rap on the head, saying, "Idiot, Big Brother Yecheng is a rescue team captain. We're just two newbies. Do you really think we're worth two captains, a vice-captain, and two third seats coming to the World of the Living to rescue us?"
Yecheng and Soifon were the captains of the 5th and 2nd Divisions, respectively, which was obvious. Rangiku was the vice-captain of the 10th Division, and Shino knew her.
As for the two third seats, though they looked unfamiliar, in the Gotei 13, where thousands of Shinigami served, being a third seat was a significant position.
