Chapter 493: The Emergence of the Hollow White
Chapter 493: The Emergence of the Hollow White
The Masked Army will seek out Ichigo, and Yecheng is well aware of this, knowing that Hirako and the others could not possibly harbor ill intentions towards Ichigo.
In fact, the reason he came here is to observe Ichigo's process of mastering the power of "Hollowification."
Undeniably, in this realm, Hollowification is considered a powerful and cool ability.
If given the chance, he wouldn't mind trying it out, but he would never accept complete Hollowification, as it would affect his cool aura.
However, if simply wearing a mask could increase his strength and spiritual pressure, he wouldn't mind at all, and wearing a mask to show off is actually quite stylish.
"You know about Ichigo Kurosaki's physical condition, and you're aware of what we plan to do to him. Don't you intend to stop us?"
Upon hearing Yecheng's words, Hirako and the others were quite surprised. As Shinigami of the Gotei 13, if they were infected with Hollow power, they would undoubtedly become outcasts.
At this moment, the Masked Army intends to awaken the Hollow power within Ichigo. According to the rules of the Gotei 13, Yecheng should have intervened to stop them.
But now it seems that the other party not only knows everything but also seems to support their actions.
"Don't be so old-fashioned. The rules of the Seireitei are over a thousand years old and are long outdated."
"Power itself has no distinction between good and evil. What's wrong with Hollow power? What's wrong with Quincy power?"
"As long as the power is wielded for the sake of important people, then such power is great."
"Moreover, I know more about Ichigo's situation than you do. His mother, Masaki Kurosaki, is also an old acquaintance of mine."
After Yecheng's words, Hirako and the others were stunned once again. They had never met a Shinigami like Yecheng before.
However, it must be said that Yecheng's words also moved Hirako and the others deeply.
Because of Aizen's betrayal, they became outcasts among Shinigami, and although they formed the Masked Army, only Hirako and his group knew in their hearts that if given a choice, they wouldn't want this power.
They were all born in the Soul Society, but due to this power, they had to live in exile for a hundred years.
Aside from their companions in the Masked Army, almost no one else would acknowledge their existence.
That's why Yecheng's previous words, devoid of any discrimination, had such a strong impact on them.
"You speak well. I didn't realize it before, but you're quite a decent guy, kid."
"We've had our fair share of fights, but I'm Rokkaku Kunishi. It's a pleasure to meet you."
After Yecheng's words, the members of the Masked Army's favorability towards him skyrocketed.
The straightforward and bold Rokkaku Kunishi even went forward and patted Yecheng's shoulder, expressing his approval.
"I think so too. The reason for the previous fight was definitely because of Hirako."
"That's right, that's right. Hirako started the trouble, and we ended up getting beaten together."
Hirako: "Hey, hey, hey, you guys are turning on us too quickly. When we decided to test this kid, you agreed to it as well."
Yecheng wasn't confused by the thoughts and intentions of the Masked Army.
After Aizen's defeat, despite their initial disagreements with the Captain Commander, they eventually returned to the Gotei 13.
The members of the 'Masked Army' put on a tough front, but deep down, they still held a strong sense of belonging and attachment to the Soul Society and the Gotei 13.
The reason they haven't returned is simply because their arch-nemesis, Aizen, hasn't been defeated yet, and they feel they must remain hidden for now.
On the other hand, having already acquired Hollow powers, they are also concerned about not being accepted back.
Lisa, who had been observing her tense companions and Yechiru, originally had the intention to step forward and mediate.
However, she never expected the situation to turn out like this, so she couldn't help but shake her head and smile bitterly towards Yechiru's direction, thinking, "He's still the same as before, always able to accurately understand others' true thoughts and use them to build connections."
The members of the 13th Division, true to their nature as extremely amiable and well-liked people, were like this: Captain Kasumi, Shiba Kaede, and Kuchiki Rukia.
"Boom——————!"
Just as the 'Masked Army' and Yechiru were getting along, on the other side, Ichigo and Yosiri's battle also entered a white-hot phase.
A figure was knocked back during the clash, and it directly pierced through numerous obstacles in the abandoned warehouse, creating a deep trench in the ground.
Surprisingly, the one who was struck wasn't the previously disadvantaged Black Zaki Ichigo, but the tomboy Yosiri, who had already used "Hollowification" and "Shikai."
"If you guys keep chatting over there, I'll be killed by this guy!"
At the beginning, Yosiri had the intention to bully Ichigo, and in the fight, she had been constantly punching and kicking Ichigo, who had already used "Bankai."
However, as the fight progressed, it seemed like she was influenced by the "Hollowification" power within Yosiri, and since Ichigo was already in a "Low Health" state, the sleeping Hollow White within him started to stir.
Compared to the weakling Ichigo, Hollow White's pride wouldn't allow him to be beaten up. So, Yosiri, who had been enjoying bullying Ichigo, soon found herself in trouble.
"What a terrifying and astonishing spiritual pressure! Is this the one who has been hiding within Ichigo?"
"Bad news, Yosiri is in danger!"
At this moment, Ichigo, due to his severe injuries and the influence of Hollowification, was clearly being controlled by Hollow White.
His originally normal human skin began to turn pure white, and some keratinous growths started to emerge.
Ichigo's eyes, the whites now completely black, exuded an aura and spiritual pressure that was drastically different from before.
After knocking Yosiri away, Hollow White didn't plan to let her off easily. Instead, he moved at high speed, laughing maniacally, and charged towards Yosiri, ready to deliver a follow-up strike.
Unlike Ichigo, the trash, Hollow White rarely appeared, and with his violent nature, he was here to revel in battle and slaughter, not to hesitate like Ichigo.
"Ding——————!"
With the clash of zanpakuto, sparks flew in the dim warehouse.
Hira, who had just blocked Hollow White's attack, was knocked back several meters by its brute force. As he felt his arm holding the sword go numb, Hira looked at Hollow White with a grave expression.
