Chapter 679 - The Defeated Ishida Uryu, A Purple Arrow Appearing in the Black Hole!
Uehara Naraku cut off the connection.
Tobirama could not help but grit his teeth.
How could Uehara Naraku, this little b.a.s.t.a.r.d, have the nerve to say that he was not a narrow-minded person? He can’t recognize what he was in the eyes of other people, right?
However, Tobirama paid more attention to Ishida Uryu and Yhwach and was too lazy to argue with Uehara Naraku.
As for the Sosuke Aizen who had just collected Hogyoku…
Tobirama roughly understood that Sosuke Aizen was Uehara Naraku’s prey, and they, the so-called Death Servants, would not be allowed to interfere.
Inside Seireitei.
Countless Shinigami were searching for the whereabouts of Sosuke Aizen.
Originally, when the Shinigami wanted to continue to capture Kurosaki Ichigo and the others, Uehara Naraku spoke out to testify for Kurosaki Ichigo and solved their crisis.
Compared to Kurosaki Ichigo and his group of Ryoka, it was obvious that Sosuke Aizen was Soul Society’s biggest threat. The entire Seireitei was boiling with excitement!
However, they never expected that the current Sosuke Aizen did not leave Seireitei, and was even at the most important place of Seireitei.
At the entrance of Soul King Palace in Seireitei.
Sosuke Aizen stood there calmly, quietly watching the s.p.a.ce in front of him slowly crack open. A voice entered his ears.
“You are not strong enough now.”
“It doesn’t matter. It will be enough soon.”
Sosuke Aizen smiled and nodded. He smiled and said, “Mr. Kabuto, so can’t you give me Soul King Palace’s key now?”
“Yes.”
A calm voice came from the spatial crack, “Your strength is not enough… It is far from enough… If you want to sit on the throne… at least there must be a reiatsu who surprises me…”
“Is that so?”
Sosuke Aizen nodded again. His eyes narrowed slightly as he continued softly, “It doesn’t matter. I just want to see if Mr. Kabuto has forgotten our agreement.”
“Don’t worry.”
In the spatial crack, Kabuto’s voice was still calm, and he even sighed, “Hundreds of years or even thousands of years have pa.s.sed…I have never been in a hurry…I thought you would stand on higher ground before you would contact me again.”
“This time won’t be too long.”
Sosuke Aizen slowly took out Hogyoku that he had folded up and said with a smile, “I just merged the two Hogyoku… I found something very interesting. Hogyoku is actually a living existence.”
Yes.
Hogyoku was actually a living creature!
After Sosuke Aizen discovered this matter, he could not help but be a little surprised. How could an object like Hogyoku be a living creature?
No, or rather, it was not surprising at all!
Before Urahara Kisuke created Hogyoku, Sosuke Aizen had created his own Hogyoku. He had even obtained an accessory – Black Zetsu. However, his Hogyoku was not satisfied no matter what kind of soul and spirit particles it devoured. It was only when the two Hogyoku were completely fused that it could be considered successful.
Moreover, the effect of Hogyoku was very interesting.
This Hogyoku has the ability to sense the hearts of those around it and materialize their deepest desire.
In a sense, Hogyoku’s ability was to fulfill a person’s wish. From a literal sense, it can achieve a person’s wish. This ability could be said to be terrifying!
Therefore…
The first thought that came to Sosuke Aizen’s mind when he got the Hogyoku was to find a way to enter the Soul King Palace. He even contacted Kabuto without thinking.
In that case…
Hogyoku had indeed fulfilled his wish?
“Then what is the reason for your visit?”
Kabuto’s voice was still steady as if he did not care about Hogyoku in Sosuke Aizen’s hands. He continued, “Do you want to get information about Hogyoku from me?”
“Maybe I had this idea before.”
The corners of Sosuke Aizen’s mouth curled up slightly. He smiled and said, “But there is no need for that now. We will really meet again soon.”
Strictly speaking…
This was the first true complete Hogyoku in this world.
Sosuke Aizen came to see Kabuto. He just wanted to know how to enter the Soul King Palace, so the Hogyoku unconsciously led Sosuke Aizen here.
Now, Sosuke Aizen has discovered Hogyoku’s strangeness…
Then what he needed to do next was to return to Hueco Mundo and use his own strength to make this Hogyoku submit to him, making himself Hogyoku’s true master!
The spatial crack quietly closed.
Kabuto’s voice also disappeared.
The corners of Sosuke Aizen’s mouth curved into a smile and quietly leave Soul Society. He had already found the direction of his evolution.
As long as he could get Hogyoku’s approval…
Then his real plan could begin!
With Sosuke Aizen’s appearance and departure, as well as the news of him taking away Hogyoku from Kuchiki Rukia’s body, Seireitei had no choice but to pay attention to this traitor.
According to Gotei 13’s wishes, they naturally hoped to kill their way into Hueco Mundo, but now that they were slightly lacking in manpower, they could only wait for Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni to return and give orders.
Kuchiki Rukia stayed in Soul Society.
Kurosaki Ichigo, Orihime Inoue, and Yasutora Sado received Gotei 13’s understanding. They were still searching for Ishida Uryu’s whereabouts inside Seireitei.
Unfortunately, there were no clues.
Those Shinigami who were in charge of chasing Ishida Uryu also told Kurosaki Ichigo about the situation they encountered. They thought that Ishida Uryu should have defected to some powerful existence.
In this situation, Kurosaki Ichigo took out Uehara Naraku’s words with some curiosity. These words were immediately accepted by Seireitei’s Shinigami.
Even Urahara Kisuke, Shihoin Yoruichi, and Kuchiki Byakuya did not refute!
Uehara clan was the oldest clan, and Uehara Naraku was also the most sincere family head in the history of this clan. He would not use this matter to deceive people.
Even if Kurosaki Ichigo believed that his friend could not do that, he still could not find Ishida Uryu in the end. When Ishida Uryu returned…
If Ishida Uryu really wants to get the power from the ancestor of Quincy and just use them to sneak into Seireitei, then he really doesn’t know what to do…
Time pa.s.sed bit by bit.
It was not a good thing to stay in Soul Society for a long time.
“It seems that there is no way…”
“Let’s go first. We’ll come back after a while…”
“Only Uehara City is not searched?”
“It seems that outsiders are not allowed to enter that place.”
“Could it be that Ishida was captured by the people of the Uehara clan…”
Kurosaki Ichigo, Orihime Inoue, and the others were still discussing this. When they slowly focused their attention on Uehara City, they wanted to pin the blame on the Uehara clan…
Fortunately, someone spoke up for them.
Urahara Kisuke shook his head and explained softly, “Those Shinigami teams that were pursuing Ishida saw Ishida disappear into the shadows with their own eyes. That was why they lost Ishida… Moreover, Uehara Naraku will never lie, and he will not kill innocent people indiscriminately.”
“Uh…”
Kurosaki Ichigo scratched his head, “But the first time we met, Ishida scolded Uehara… Could it be because of this reason…”
“Impossible.”
Shihoin Yoruichi frowned and denied the correct answer. She continued, “That young lord of the Uehara clan is still very generous. Moreover, the Death Servants are not in Seireitei, so there should be no one else who would do such a thing…”
“What Lord Uehara Naraku said is indeed the truth.”
Kuchiki Byakuya continued, and a hint of unnaturalness flashed across his face as if he was unwilling to say anything good for Uehara Naraku.
Only at this moment, Kuchiki Byakuya knew that he should not hide the truth, “Lord Uehara Naraku is not wrong… The enemy that Captain-Commander Yamamoto has been chasing a thousand years ago was called Yhwach and is indeed the Quincy ancestor.”
This kind of thing can not be avoided.
Over a thousand years of history, Soul Society and Four n.o.ble Families know some secret things. Yhwach was naturally not some special secret, but this kind of thing needs to be concealed.
However, Uehara Naraku opened the hole first.
The young family head directly told them about the relationship between Yhwach and the Quincy, and even the grievances between Yhwach, Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni, and the Uehara clan.
In this way, it was meaningless for Kuchiki Byakuya to continue to hide, so it was better to just tell them what he knew so that Kurosaki Ichigo and others could give up.
This constant persuasion made Kurosaki Ichigo, Inoue Orihime, and Yasutora Sado very troubled. They could only choose to retreat first.
Just as Kurosaki Ichigo and others were about to retreat to Human World, the entire Seireitei began to sound out alarm again. Another enemy invaded, and a sharp arrow flashing with blue light from a distance suddenly shot through the sky of Seireitei!
This familiar move…
Everyone could not help but light up in front of their eyes!
Only Quincy would use this kind of ability!
“Ishida!”
A hint of excitement flashed across Kurosaki Ichigo’s face.
In the next moment, Kurosaki Ichigo, Orihime Inoue, Yasutora Sado, and the others quickly rushed in the direction where the arrow came from. They saw their long-lost friend there!
No…
It should be said that…
A completely different friend!
When Ishida Uryu, who had been missing for many days, appeared again, his reiatsu was strangely strong. He was even not at a disadvantage when compared to those powerful team leaders Shinigami!
Facing the attack from a group of Shinigami…
Ishida Uryu displayed a powerful suppressive force!
This kind of power was completely different from the previous Ishida Uryu!
Everyone present felt their hearts sink when they saw the abnormally active spiritual particle on Ishida Uryu. This fellow was indeed as Uehara Naraku had said. The reason he infiltrated Soul Society was to obtain this power from his ancestors!
Uehara City.
Above the high wall.
Ishida Uryu stood by the wall of Uehara City. He had a cloak draped over his back, and he stood in the wind, holding a white spirit bow in his hand!
Yes.
Ishida Uryu had indeed obtained a powerful power.
Ishida Uryu saw Yhwach in the shadow s.p.a.ce, which made Yhwach feel extremely shocked about his ident.i.ty. Because Ishida Uryu was not a real pure-blood descendant, he was a descendant of a pure-blood Quincy and a mixed-blood Quincy.
However…
Ishida Uryu survived when Yhwach used Auswählen.
In an absolute sense, when Yhwach used Auswählen to absorb power from other Quincy, the pure-blood Quincy would temporarily lose strength, and the mixed-blood Quincy would lose strength and life completely!
Ishida Uryu survived!
This did not surprise Yhwach. He guessed that Ishida Uryu might have something that was enough to surpa.s.s him. Similarly, this also made Yhwach somewhat speechless about Ishida Uryu’s incompetence.
Therefore…
Yhwach personally performed the awakening ceremony for Ishida Uryu, improving his strength and giving him the knowledge of Quincy. Even Yhwach wanted Ishida Uryu to become his successor.
With Yhwach’s Auswählen, there were not many Quincy in this world. A talented little guy like Ishida Uryu who was obsessed with the Quincy power was very useful.
Who let Yhwach have a bad living environment?
Yamamoto Shigekuni and Uehara clan’s first four Death Servants are chasing him, and even Yhwach can’t help feeling a little overwhelmed. He really needs some help and subordinates now…
Therefore.
After Yhwach bestowed Ishida Uryu with the power and knowledge of Quincy, he return Ishida Uryu back to Soul Society and asked him to test the Uehara clan.
Coincidentally…
For Ishida Uryu, this was also what he wanted to do!
Because Ishida Uryu saw their enemy, the Uehara clan, capture his father, Ishida Ryuken, he needed this power to defeat the Uehara clan to save his father!
Ishida Uryu could feel that he was very powerful now. Even he could clearly feel that he had received a terrifying improvement!
“Hand over my father.”
Ishida Uryu pulled the spirit bow in his hand. The spirit particles quickly turned into a light arrow and flew out of the bow, slowly aiming at Uehara City’s street.
Ishida Uryu stared at the people inside Uehara City, his face full of arrogance and indifference, “Maybe in this case, I will spare your lives…”
“Stop!”
Uehara Naraku appeared on the city wall. His eyes narrowed slightly as he said in a deep voice, “Ishida Uryu, I will help you find out the whereabouts of your father. Don’t make a move here. There are innocent people below… You don’t want these people to die in the aftermath of the battle, do you?”
“I don’t care.”
The corner of Ishida Uryu’s mouth curled into a sneer. He suddenly pointed the spirit bow in his hand at Uehara Naraku. His palm suddenly loosened and shot out that spirit light arrow!
A few months ago in the Human World, he had only cursed a few times at Uehara Naraku, and his father was captured by the Death Servants of the Uehara clan. Now, he wanted to know if those b.a.s.t.a.r.ds would go crazy if he killed the Uehara clan’s head!
“Another guy who likes to play with bows and arrows…”
Uehara Naraku slowly shook his head.
Uehara Naraku suddenly raised his palm. A black hole appeared in front of him, and his voice became a little lighter.
“Sasuke, do something…”
“b.a.s.t.a.r.d…”
A furious curse came from the black hole.
Along with this curse, a purple arrow wrapped in lightning suddenly shot out from the black hole. This purple arrow instantly defeated Ishida Uryu’s light arrow!
Even this purple arrow did not lose momentum!
It directly nailed the shocked Ishida Uryu on the city wall!
