Chapter 486: The Arrancar "Espada" Attacks!
"Huff, huff, huff, finally saved. I can't believe that Ranju, this guy, got so drunk and had such immense strength. I almost suffocated just now!"
Looking at Ranju lying on the ground in a sprawl, breathing heavily in her sleep, Yecheng, the 13th Division's Third Seat, who had just narrowly escaped death from the 37G "Cleansing Cream," was now taking deep breaths of fresh air.
He, Yecheng, was a formidable opponent, capable of holding his own against even the strongest Shinigami in Soul Society. But who would believe that he had just escaped death from a 37G "Cleansing Cream"?
"Hinamori, I really have to thank you this time. You saw it too, it wasn't me taking advantage of Ranju while she was drunk. It was she who made the first move...cough, cough, she started it!"
"If she wakes up and realizes what happened, you have to back me up! Anyway, this guy is going to use this as an excuse to keep taking advantage of me."
Yecheng knew Ranju all too well. The last time they went to the Human World together, he accidentally caught a glimpse of her in the bathroom, and she had been milking him for drinks for several months since then.
This time, he would not be fooled by those headlights that spelled out the word "G."
"Mhm, I believe you, Yecheng. You definitely wouldn't do something like that.
Ranju is always like this when she's drunk. I'm sure you came to take care of her out of concern, right? Even though you're still under house arrest, your relationship is so friendly."
Hinamori trusted Yecheng's words without hesitation, and as a fangirl with her own filter, she believed that Yecheng's presence here was also due to his concern for Ranju's situation.
Seeing the adoring gaze of his fangirl, Yecheng wanted to say that he was here to freeload, but he swallowed the words and shamelessly nodded, "Their condition is indeed worrying.
You just said that tomorrow is the day to recruit graduates from the Sokyoku Spiritual Academy, right? In this state, how can they work tomorrow?"
Hinamori: "（￣￣） Yecheng, you're still so kind.
In that case, why don't you help Ranju tomorrow?"
Yecheng: (_; Why am I showing off for no reason!
Human World, Karakura Town.
"Rukia, have you found any information about that person named Hizuki Mako?" Ichigo asked Rukia, who was constantly pressing the send button on her transmitter as they walked home.
"No, I've searched for a lot of information and resources, but I still can't find any information about a Shinigami named Hizuki Mako.
Since I joined the Gotei 13, I've never heard of this name. If she's really a Shinigami, it's impossible not to find any related information."
It had been over a month since they returned to the Human World from Soul Society. Ichigo, who had already mastered Bankai and experienced a surge in strength, was now effortlessly clearing out the newbie village in Karakura Town.
The Hollows that used to be a challenge were now easily dispatched with a single slash.
However, a few days ago, a person named Hizuki Mako approached Ichigo Kurosaki and claimed that they were on the same side, inviting Ichigo to join the 'Masked Army.'
At first, Ichigo didn't pay much attention, but then this person appeared at Karakura First High School as a transfer student and approached him again.
This time, the person revealed even more information.
The person not only boldly claimed to be a Shinigami but also, right in front of Ichigo, ripped off a Hollow's mask from his face.
Instead of engaging Ichigo in a fight, they stated that they were more aligned with the Gotei 13 of Seireitei.
If Ichigo wanted to understand the power within him, he could find them at the place they mentioned.
Since the person claimed to be a Shinigami, Ichigo decided to inform Rukia about this, thinking that as a fellow Shinigami, she might know about their existence.
However, it was evident that Rukia had no knowledge of a Shinigami named Mako Hirako, and she couldn't even find any related information.
It was normal for Rukia to be unaware of and unable to find information about the 'Masked Army,' including Hirako and the others.
After all, Hirako and his group had defected from Soul Society a hundred years ago, and Rukia had only been brought back to Soul Society from the Soul Society by Yecheng fifty years ago.
The reason why information about Hirako and the others couldn't be found was naturally because it had been blocked and deleted by the Captain Commander's orders.
After all, having multiple captains betray Soul Society was not a glorious matter, especially since it involved taboo experiments like Hollowification research and soul modification.
"In any case, until we thoroughly confirm the identity and background of this mysterious Shinigami, I don't mind you having further contact with him.
Although he hasn't shown any hostility towards you, no one knows what his true intentions are.
I will continue to follow up on the intelligence regarding this Mako Hirako, and perhaps asking Yecheng-niisan might be a good option.
Yecheng-niisan has been a Shinigami longer than my brother, so he might know something."
As Rukia spoke, she prepared to use the communicator in her hand to contact Yecheng.
However, just as she was about to take action, she was stopped by Ichigo, who was standing next to her.
"You want to contact Yecheng again? Let's hold off for now. We've only just arrived in the Human World, and if we keep bothering him, it'll make us seem useless.
Since Mako Hirako hasn't shown any hostility yet, let's observe for now.
You don't want to disappoint your most admired Yecheng-niisan, do you? After all, constantly relying on him won't make him look at you differently."
Under normal circumstances, Rukia's personality was quite cautious, and she would never agree to Ichigo's request.
But Ichigo's words this time perfectly hit Rukia's weak spot. The thought of her admired Yecheng-niisan being disappointed in her made Rukia immediately choose to compromise.
"Boom——————!"
The two were originally discussing Mako Hirako when a violent tremor shook the ground, and both Ichigo and Rukia simultaneously sensed two extraordinarily powerful spiritual pressures appearing in the Human World!
At the same time, in the 12th Division's Research and Development Bureau in Soul Society, the spiritual pressure detection instruments also showed two large red dots in the Human World.
Based on the spiritual pressure readings, the strength of these two spiritual pressures had even surpassed that of an average Shinigami captain, so the members of the 12th Division promptly chose to report it.
"Is this the Human World? It's even more boring than I imagined, but there seems to be quite a lot of delicious food."
Two figures suddenly appeared in the Human World, one tall and muscular with dark skin and a bald head, and the other slender with black hair.
