Chapter 543 Roadblock

Ding-ding-ding! The gong-like sound rang again, more urgent than the previous one, reminding all the Shinigami in the Soul Society of the urgency of the situation.

"Emergency alarm! Emergency alarm!"

"Intruders have been found in the Soul Society!"

"All teams, please take up your positions!"

"There are two intruders, one is the human traveler Ichigo Kurosaki, and the other is the Fullbringer Kōki Hirakawa. The former's power is unknown, and the latter's danger level is the highest level... The two have the following appearance characteristics..."

The Soul Society instantly became agitated, and the Shinigami team members were surprised, subconsciously looking up at the direction where the sound of the horn came from. On Xizhi Street, Ichigo gritted his teeth slightly and ran faster.

Near the White Road Gate, Ikkaku's expression changed from surprise, to excitement, to confusion, and finally to rage: "Those two... bastards?!"

The expression on the bald head became more ferocious. How dare they play tricks on me like this? ! Absolutely, absolutely, I must chop them up with my own hands before the captain finds them!

As he expected, Kenpachi Zaraki was already laughing excitedly and carrying Yachiryu out of the door, embarking on an unknown journey, not caring about the garrison position at all.

The other captains also responded. Kyoraku Shunsui sighed and put down his wine glass: "Captain Hirako, it seems that we can't drink to our heart's content today without Lisa's interruption."

"That guy... broke into the Soul Society? For those Fullbringers?" Hitsugaya Toushirou solemnly put on his sword and called the team members.

After the initial shock, Abarai Renji quickly ran towards the 5th Division's barracks, cursing Ichigo Kurosaki that idiot in his heart. He was worried about Ichigo Kurosaki's own safety, and also worried that it would affect the judgment of Rukia that had been settled!

"Captain!..."

"Captain... went out an hour ago?"

After receiving the report from the third seat, Abarai Renji was stunned. Where did Captain Byakuya go?

…

Still with that tall figure, handsome and cold as if without emotion, Kuchiki Byakuya grabbed the Zanpakuto on his left waist with his right hand and quietly blocked in front of Ji Xing.

This is one of the only ways to the Mao underground prison. He seems to have been waiting here for a long time, and he is not surprised at all to meet Ji Xing here.

"It's you, Hirakawa Koki, no, 'sinner' Yono Mashi, your goal is not to rescue the Fullbringer, but to get your own Zanpakuto back."

"You're smart, Master Byakuya, you're the first person to guess and confirm my identity out of thin air." Ji Xing smiled and said, "Is it because of the 'little trace' I revealed to Rukia?"

Byakuya's eyes twitched slightly without a trace, and Ji Xing asked again, "Since you've guessed it, why don't you tell everyone?"

Byakuya was silent for a few seconds, and said, "You saved me, and you also saved my grandfather in Hueco Mundo. The Kuchiki clan will not owe others a favor."

"Then why are you stopping here?"

"It's my duty as the head of the Kuchiki clan and the captain of the 6th Division of Seireitei to stop Yono Mashi from getting his Zanpakuto back."

Ji Xing sighed helplessly, "Are you tired?"

Byakuya drew out his Zanpakuto with a clang, indicating that he didn't feel tired.

"Wait a minute." Ji Xing raised his hand and said, "Although I'm in a hurry now, I can chat with you for a while. I have a few questions to ask you... How is Rukia?"

"50 years in the Black Rope Prison, 100 years in the Waiting Prison, a total of 150 years." Bai Ya said coldly.

"The girl has become an old lady." Ji Xing shook his head: "Do you regret marrying her sister, the commoner woman Kuchiki Hime?"

"Never. It's just that I told myself at that time that it was the last time to shame Kuchiki." Bai Ya didn't ask Ji Xing why he knew those things, and even gave a positive response.

"As one of the four nobles, marrying a commoner woman is a shame for the family?" Ji Xing laughed: "Then what do you think of Shiba Kaiyan?"

Hearing this name, Kuchiki Byakuya's face fluctuated slightly, so Ji Xing followed up calmly: "What do you think of Shiba Kaiyan's death?"

"Died 43 years ago, at the hands of a Quincy, died heroically in battle." Bai Ya said.

"Are you sure?" Ji Xing asked.

"Are you sure?" Byakuya asked back.

"I'm not sure, but you have subconsciously had doubts, right? Why?"

Byakuya fell silent again.

That's right, he escaped Aizen's experiment, but not the Quincy. Shiba Kaien even died earlier than the original timeline, leaving Rukia with no chance to work with him.

The Quincy, the Shadow Empire hidden in the shadows, is very powerful. Even if there was a deliberate plan 43 years ago, even if Captain-General Yamamoto did it himself, it still caused considerable losses to the Soul Society.

But after all, there were preparations, and only two of the captains and vice-captains were killed or injured.

Former captain of the 7th Division Aikawa Ratake.

Former vice-captain of the 13th Division Shiba Kaien!

Among them, Aikawa Ratake died of carelessness, and Shiba Kaien died of a "misfortune" - the direction in which several powerful Quincy fled happened to be where he was.

That "misfortune" made Urahara Kisuke suspect that there were traces of deliberate guidance, and the most suspected one was naturally the Tsunayashiro family, one of the four great nobles!

Ever since Ji Xing turned Tsunayashiro Tokida into a hollow a hundred years ago, causing the death of the Tsunayashiro clan leader and a group of elite members of the clan, the Tsunayashiro family, which was originally ranked as the top of the nobles, has almost been unable to recover. However, the Shiba clan, which they have been suppressing, has shown signs of revival and returning to the era of the five great nobles.

Although he only had a brief acquaintance with Shiba Haiyan, Ji Xing still clearly remembers that the young man, like himself who 'collected evidence of crime', would attend every meeting of the Golden Seal Nobles!

He is striving to make "nobles break the law and the common people are equally guilty". This has never been successful a hundred years ago, but he still insists on expressing his opinions every time.

After Ji Xing's massacre of nobles, some of the noble nobles restrained themselves from fear, and his proposals began to succeed intermittently.

This really attracts hatred.

Ji Xing will not forcefully take the blame for this chain reaction on himself, but it does not prevent him from being very suspicious and dissatisfied with Shiba Haiyan's death!

"The fact that you have doubts means that you understand the filthiness of the nobility. In this case, as the head of the Kuchiki clan, who has a pivotal position among the nobility, he demands himself and treats himself harshly as a lotus flower that can rise out of the mud and remain unsullied. relatives, ignoring other filth within reach.”

Ji Xing looked at Byakuya and shook his head: "Do you think you did a great job? Master Byakuya, you are far behind Senior Kuchiki Ginling."

Byakuya didn't show any anger, he just looked down at himself and said, "Of course I'm not as good as my grandfather, but...Rukia did commit a serious crime."

Ji Xing smiled: "That's because Soul Society's laws are not perfect, and there is no 'emergency evacuation' rule. As a high-risk profession, the Shinigami hunts vulnerabilities to protect the safety of the world, and their rights and interests should be more protected. With Lucia's face, Those who are in danger of life and lend the power of death to successfully kill Xu without causing huge damage should be punished lightly. "

Byakuya was silent for a while, then he turned the sword upside down and let it fall, sinking into the ground.

Powerful spiritual pressure burst out from his body, and was quickly gathered back by him. The high concentration was compressed back into his own body, making captain Yu Zhi hunt!

"Swastika-Senbonzakura Kageyan!"

"Final scene-White Emperor Sword!"

In an instant, the surrounding world turned dark, and one after another, the white-glow sword blades in the shadows emitted a faint light.

Those are all virtual.

All the swords and all the cherry blossoms have been gathered into the sword in Byakuya's hand and the white wings spread out behind him! This is the most powerful secret that Byakuya has mastered. It condenses all the spiritual power and concentrates the power on himself!

"There is no need to shake me with words, Yono Masashi. Knock me down and you can get through here."

puff--! !

As soon as he finished speaking, Byakuya's eyes suddenly blurred, and then there was a sharp pain in his back!

As blood spattered and fell to the ground, he saw Ji Xing in front of him turn into a shadow and disappear, and heard a voice from behind: "Okay, I've been knocked down."

...Isn’t it too fast? !

Byakuya's thoughts didn't even follow the injury.

I don’t even have a chance to use the sword... Even if I directly... use the final scene... the strongest genius in a thousand years... no... it turns out that I have been shaken...

So even his movement trajectory and spiritual pressure were missed... In the intermittent thoughts before coma, Byakuya could only feel that Ji Xing was holding the back of his neck and carrying him on his shoulders.

Where is this guy... taking me...

The world is dark.

…

Zhenyang Underground Prison, second floor.

"So tired..." Lucia muttered in her heart.

She is now in a shape that looks like a bundle of limbs, with her hands and feet tightly bound together by special ropes. She can only use her shoulders to turn over and move, changing her position to lie on her side.

This is the punishment of the black rope prison.

Only during the daily eating time and personal hygiene time can we briefly get a total of about an hour of rest and relax our limbs.

With her spiritual pressure sealed, she was exhausted from the fatigue accumulated over the past week, and she always felt like she might lose control and collapse at any moment.

"Just adapt...just adapt..."

"Uh...Rukia, you need to cheer up...it's only been a week...you're already hallucinating?!"

Blinking her eyes, she saw the familiar figure, Kouki Hirakawa, the living perfectionist, walking into the cell where she was. The person he was holding in his hand was even more familiar, Brother Byakuya? ? ?

The eldest brother looked injured and unconscious, his back was stained red with blood, and he could only let Hirakawa Kouki do it, placing him on the ground opposite to her who was lying on his side.

Immediately, Kouki Hirakawa took out a familiar black rope, broke off Byakuya's legs and feet, and tied them up exactly like hers, making the eldest brother's posture become a very inelegant bow shape.

The cold eldest brother...it's a bit funny to turn into a 'caterpillar' without arms and legs like himself!

Lucia couldn't help but chuckle, feeling that the accumulated fatigue on her body had dissipated a lot, and her mental fatigue had also been relieved.

Then he was stunned.

"Huh??!"
