The Cero and Sōren Sōkatsui collided in mid-air, resulting in a large explosion.
"I blocked it?" Yamatake Chiyo wiped away a cold sweat. But even if she blocked this attack, what then? The Hollow's assault would surely not stop.
As she hesitated, the cliff beneath her feet suddenly made an unpleasant "creaking" sound. Chiyo-chan looked at the cliff below, and a bad thought appeared in her mind.
"Such a cliché thing as the cliff breaking won't happen to me, right?" Chiyo-chan looked at the cliff below in despair. Suddenly, the cliff's support point couldn't withstand the Menos Grande's weight and broke, causing both the Menos Grande and Chiyo-chan to fall off the cliff.
"I told you I shouldn't have participated in this practical exercise, ahhhhhh!"
Finally, the girl's scream was completely swallowed by the darkness.
...
Unohana was frantically attacking Yamabuki, but no matter how she attacked, Yamabuki could create spatial spheres to block Unohana's sword.
Moreover, each time he created a spatial sphere, it didn't consume much spiritual pressure, less than he could recover!
Just as the two were locked in fierce combat, someone arrived above. Judging by the amount of spiritual pressure, quite a few people had come. Yamabuki thought something had happened and hurried up to see, only to find that all the people who came were students.
"Why are you all here in the middle of the night?" Yamabuki asked with a frown.
A male student from Chiyo-chan's Squad One gasped and said, "Teacher, it's bad! A Menos Grande suddenly appeared in Rukongai, and Chiyo-chan is holding it off. We came back to deliver the message. Please go and see quickly!"
Yamabuki's expression changed. A Menos Grande appeared in Rukongai? Indeed, there's a certain probability of Menos Grande appearing in Rukongai. It's too early for these students to deal with a Menos Grande. Yamabuki said coldly, "All of you go back to sleep now. I will go rescue her myself. I know Yamatake Chiyo's strength; even if she encounters a Menos Grande, she might not die."
That little fairy's spiritual pressure was at the seated officer level; even if she encountered a Menos Grande, she might still be able to retreat unharmed.
After dismissing the students, Yamabuki hurried towards Rukongai.
Just as he arrived at the location where the Menos Grande attacked Yamatake Chiyo, a crack suddenly appeared in the air, and another Menos Grande crawled out from the void.
No, not just one. Countless Menos Grande emerged from the crack in the sky, crawling out one after another, scrambling to be first.
Yamabuki frowned deeply. What on earth was going on? If only one Menos Grande appeared, it could be described as a coincidence, but now so many Menos Grande appeared at the same time; this was problematic.
Menos Grande appeared one by one in front of Yamabuki. Most Gillian had no intelligence and acted purely on instinct, devouring souls with higher spiritual pressure.
In this area now, the soul with the highest spiritual pressure was definitely Yamabuki.
These Menos Grande rushed over like mosquitoes seeing blood. Unfortunately, at this moment, these Menos Grande no longer posed any threat to Yamabuki.
"Reverse! Silver Radiance Angel!"
The blade flashed, and all the Menos Grande were cut down with a single strike, their bodies dissipating into reishi.
Just as Yamabuki breathed a sigh of relief after slaying the enemies, a leisurely voice sounded from the darkness: "I originally thought these scoundrels could only catch a few small fish, but I didn't expect a big one to come. State your name, Shinigami."
Yamabuki quickly turned around. A man in a white robe walked out from the darkness. From his attire, it could be deduced that this person was a Quincy. So, the sudden rampage of the Hollow was caused by a Quincy?
In the future, the Technological Development Bureau would be able to monitor the entire Soul Society's Senkaimon, and anyone entering or exiting the Soul Society could be detected. But even so, when the Quincy attacked, their path still couldn't be predicted.
Even more so a thousand years ago, the Technological Development Bureau hadn't been formally established, and there was no technology to monitor the entire Soul Society. The enemy had appeared at the doorstep of their main base, yet they hadn't detected them at all.
"Quincy? State your name," Yamabuki said coldly.
"You can call me Thomas Young. You must remember this name. Don't forget to pray and repent after you go to hell." Thomas gently waved his hand, and a reishi bow appeared in his hand.
Yamabuki suddenly asked, "Did His Majesty send you to meet me? I've already gathered a lot of Shinigami intelligence here."
"Hmm???" Thomas was stunned, not understanding what Yamabuki's words meant.
"Didn't His Majesty tell you that I am his undercover agent in the Soul Society?" Yamabuki showed a surprised expression: "Are you not here to meet me?"
As he spoke, Yamabuki waved his hand, and a reishi bow appeared in his hand, identical to the reishi bow in Thomas's hand.
Thomas was completely bewildered. A… a Quincy? The true identity of this Shinigami-dressed young man was actually a Quincy?
Did His Majesty really secretly send someone to infiltrate the Soul Society? How wise His Majesty was! He could actually accomplish things that we could not at all.
A Quincy's ability couldn't be faked. The ability to control reishi was unique to Quincy. According to His Majesty, Shinigami couldn't possess such power.
At this moment, the young man also walked over without any guard.
"I've been undercover in the Soul Society for two months now, and I've become a Chief of Staff of the Gotei 13. The high-ranking officials of the Soul Society now know about the existence of Quincy and have formulated a plan to exterminate us Quincy. This is the complete detailed content of their combat plan." Yamabuki took out a piece of paper from his pocket, and just as he was about to hand it over, he suddenly asked, "I've already revealed my identity, what about you? Are you really sent by His Majesty to meet me? If not, I absolutely cannot hand over this information casually."
Thomas didn't expect that he was just supposed to capture a tongue, but he actually encountered his own undercover agent.
"Well, ahem, perhaps your identity is special, and His Majesty didn't tell me."
"What about the others? You couldn't have come alone, right? Do any of your companions know me? I want to meet them." Yamabuki said with a vigilant expression.
After seeing Yamabuki's reishi bow, Thomas had already confirmed that this young man was one of their own, and his suspicion of the young man was greatly reduced.
"Indeed, many people came this time. We are about to launch a general attack soon. We came this time to interfere with the enemy's confidence and judgment." Thomas said.
"So that's how it is!" Yamabuki looked surprised. To be able to come and go without a trace in the enemy's main base, while the Soul Society couldn't find any trace of the Quincy, this would definitely be a huge blow to the Soul Society's morale.
"Oh, by the way, was your ability just now a Zanpakutō? Can we Quincy also use Zanpakutō?" Thomas suddenly asked.
