Chapter 393: Unohana Retsu's Mission

Above the sky, Enkidu's face also became rare and solemn.

The battle between Ichigo Kurosaki and Ulquiorra was obviously more intense than before.

However, this time was different from before.

When Ichigo Kurosaki did not have Bankai and Ulquiorra was in the first stage of Reincarnation, Ulquiorra's speed was faster than Ichigo Kurosaki. Although his strength was inferior to Ichigo Kurosaki, he could still take advantage of the battle by relying on his own speed that exceeded Ichigo Kurosaki.

However, after Ichigo Kurosaki's Bankai, the situation was reversed.

It's not that Ulquiorra's second stage Reincarnation was not strong, but the improvement obtained by Ichigo Kurosaki after Bankai was too great.

Ichigo Kurosaki's Bankai originally compressed his huge spiritual pressure into the tiny Zanpakutō, so as to gain faster speed and stronger slashing power.

Ichigo Kurosaki's spiritual pressure was originally stronger than Ulquiorra's. After his Bankai, he broke through the limit of the god of death and reached a higher limit.

Therefore, Ulquiorra, who had returned to the second stage of the blade, was directly suppressed by Ichigo Kurosaki and had no power to fight back at all.

Wounds appeared on Ulquiorra's body.

If it weren't for his ability "super-speed regeneration" which was very powerful and could almost regenerate broken limbs instantly, I'm afraid Ulquiorra would have been killed by Ichigo Kurosaki long ago.

"Crescent-Heaven Strike!"

The black and red crescent-shaped Heaven Strike collided with the dark green Hollow Flash.

After a moment of confrontation, the black and red spiritual pressure directly suppressed the dark green King Hollow Flash and hit Ulquiorra.

"Boom!"

"Boom!"

Ulquiorra was hit by the crescent-shaped slash of Ichigo Kurosaki, and the whole person turned into a stream of light and crashed through several solid columns more than ten meters wide on the sky cover.

Finally, Ulquiorra's body was on a column near Enkidu and others.

This time, Ulquiorra did not crash through the column, but only crashed into a big pit, and Ulquiorra himself was trapped in the big pit.

"Puff..."

Ulquiorra wanted to continue fighting after spitting out a mouthful of blood, but when he wanted to move, he found that his hands and the body below the chest and abdomen were completely broken, and were completely destroyed by the Crescent Moon Sky Strike of Kurosaki Ichigo before.

After consuming a lot of spiritual pressure, Ulquiorra's body recovered at a speed visible to the naked eye.

This recovery speed seems very fast, but it is far from the degree of recovery that can be almost instantaneous at the beginning.

"Swoosh!"

Kurosaki Ichigo's figure instantly appeared in front of the column, the lower clothes of the Death Tyrant suit on his body floated in the wind, and his cold face looked reassuring.

"Kurosaki-san."

Seeing Kurosaki Ichigo appear, Inoue Orihime and others immediately shouted.

Turning his head to look at Inoue Orihime and others, Ichigo Kurosaki said: "I'm sorry, Inoue, for keeping you here for so long."

"But it's okay."

"Wait for me for a few minutes. When I completely defeat this guy, we will return to the real world."

"Yes."

Orihime Inoue nodded. No matter what Kurosaki said, she would believe it.

Then, Ichigo Kurosaki looked at Ulquiorra who had fully recovered.

"Ulquiorra, do you want to continue fighting?"

"If you continue to fight, I can't guarantee that the next sword will not kill you."

It must be said that Ulquiorra is a very good opponent.

After fighting with Ulquiorra, Ichigo Kurosaki also has a better understanding of his current strength.

Very strong, very strong!

This is stronger than all the death gods he has seen.

No...

Suddenly, Ichigo Kurosaki shook his head.

Although he is very strong now, he is far behind Mr. Ayling.

He can only enter this state after Bankai.

Even without releasing his Zanpakutō, Mr. Aylin would always stay in this state.

Only when he entered this state did Ichigo Kurosaki realize how far he was from Mr. Aylin.

"Hua La La..."

Ulquiorra moved his hands and feet from the pit and wanted to continue fighting.

However, the recovery of his body consumed a lot of spiritual pressure. With just this one action, Ulquiorra himself withdrew from the state of the second stage of the blade and restored his posture when he was an espada.

"It seems that you have no strength to fight anymore!"

Seeing Ulquiorra's appearance, Ichigo Kurosaki turned around and wanted to leave.

"Wait!"

Ulquiorra's voice came from behind Ichigo Kurosaki.

"I haven't lost yet, I can still fight."

When this sentence came out of Ulquiorra's mouth, Ichigo Kurosaki didn't show any reaction, but Ulquiorra himself was stunned.

Ulquiorra's death among the espadas represented "nothingness".

Since birth, Ulquiorra himself has been in the "void".

He is an alien.

His fellows all have black appearance and white facial features.

Only Ulquiorra is all white.

Moreover, he only has vision and no other senses, so he is rejected by the tribe and wanders alone.

During this period, as his strength increased, Ulquiorra gradually gained other senses. However, Ulquiorra still didn't know what he needed, as if everything in the world had nothing to do with him.

After wandering into a white bush, Ulquiorra had some ideas for the first time.

He wanted to bury himself here, buried in this white nothingness.

Perhaps it was his thoughts like this that triggered Bengyu's power, causing him to break through in his sleep, be found by Aizen, and work for Aizen.

However, although Ulquiorra followed Aizen's instructions meticulously, it was because he did not know what he should and should not do.

In this void life, Aizen gave Ulquiorra "commands", allowing Ulquiorra to gradually have his own ideas from the "emptiness".

Now, Ulquiorra suddenly discovered that he wanted to fight Kurosaki Ichigo not only because of Aizen-sama's order, but also because of Ulquiorra's heartfelt wish to make Aizen-sama be realized.

To a certain extent, this was the "heart" that Ulquiorra had always doubted existed.

"Is it?"

Kurosaki Ichigo turned to look at Ulquiorra and said calmly: "Ulquiorra, you don't have the strength to fight me again now."

"When you recover from your injuries, if you still want to fight me, I will always be with you!"

After saying that, Kurosaki Ichigo ignored Ulquiorra and landed in front of Enkidu and others.

"Kurosaki."

Ishida Uryu glanced at Ulquiorra who was struggling to get up, and asked doubtfully: "That guy, is it okay to leave him like this?"

Kurosaki Ichigo shook his head.

If it were before, he might have thought that all Hollows were bad and had to be killed and purified.

But since he learned the truth about this world from Captain Aylin, Ichigo Kurosaki will not kill any of these conscious Hollows who are not so hostile to the world and can let them go.

The 60th Blade Grimmjow was like this, and the 40th Blade Ulquiorra was like this as well.

However, Kurosaki Ichigo was also feeling a little anxious at the moment.

Before entering Hueco Mundo, the store manager Urahara said that Aizen's attack on the real world might take three to five days.

Sure enough, now that he has arrived at Xuye Palace, he has defeated the ten blades left behind in Xuye Palace, without even seeing Aizen.

Not only Aizen, but also the three Ten Blades ranked above Ulquiorra could not be seen.

If one Ulquiorra is so strong, how strong will the three Arrancars ranked above Ulquiorra be?

Of course, Ulquiorra has also said before that the second stage of returning to the sword is a gesture that even Aizen doesn't know about.

Therefore, the first three Ten Blades may not be as strong as Ulquiorra after returning to the blade for the second time, but they are definitely stronger than Ulquiorra after returning to the blade once.

If the Shinigami captains cannot win in a short time, how many people in Karakura Town will be affected as a result?

"No problem, he no longer has any extra spiritual pressure to fight."

I have to say that super-speed regeneration is indeed a very powerful ability.

However, the amount of spiritual pressure consumed by this ability is not ordinary.

Look at Ulquiorra, during a period of returning to the sword, his spiritual pressure was so much that he could condense it into raindrops of spiritual pressure.

However, after Kurosaki Ichigo's swastika release, he fatally wounded Ulquiorra several times. After consuming a large amount of spiritual pressure, the rain of spiritual pressure finally disappeared completely, and Ulquiorra's spiritual pressure almost disappeared. Almost exhausted.

That is to say, Kurosaki Ichigo did not kill him in the end.

Otherwise, if Ulquiorra's spiritual pressure is exhausted before his body has been repaired, he will die of exhausted spiritual pressure.

Moreover, this kind of person who died due to exhaustion of spiritual pressure will not be able to be naturally decomposed due to powerful spiritual pressure like other powerful Shinigami or Hollows.

After his spiritual pressure is exhausted and he dies, Ulquiorra will naturally turn into spirit children and disperse like those weak Hollows.

"Inoue, Ishida, Sadatari, and Aizen led the three Ten Blades in front to go to the living world to fight the captains of Seireitei. I must rush back to the living world immediately."

"I sensed the spiritual pressure of several Shinigami in Hueco Mundo before. Now let's go see if they have any way to get us to the present world as soon as possible."

"good."

After hearing Kurosaki Ichigo's words, the others did not delay.

Inoue Orihime turned to Enkidu and said, "Miss Enkidu, please excuse me."

"Well, everyone, please pay attention."

After Enkidu nodded, golden chains rose up from around her, fixing everyone, and then——

“Boo boo boo boo…”

Dozens of chains gathered together, like a huge drill, shattering the canopy on the ground, leading everyone to fall from the canopy.

"boom!"

Chains hit the ground one after another, and everyone fixed by the chains slid from the sky along the chains to the ground of Hueco Mundo like they were riding a cable car.

"Ahhhhhhhh..."

Enkidu's operation shocked everyone.

But after the panic, when you feel safe, you will feel very exciting.

A group of four people and three figures hung seven chains in various shapes in the air.

"Boom boom boom boom..."

After falling to the ground, countless chains formed a huge chain cage, allowing Inoue Orihime and others to cushion the impact of falling to the ground and finally stand safely on the ground.

"Wow, it's so fun..."

"Enkidu, can I play again?"

After the smoke and dust cleared, Nel came to Enkidu, pulled Enkidu's white long skirt, and said to Enkidu in a coquettish manner.

"This..."

After looking at Inoue Orihime, Enkidu squatted down, stroked Nel's head with his hand, and comforted her: "Next time, Nel."

"Now I have something to help Master Alin complete."

"Next time I come to Hueco Mundo, if you want to play, I will take you to play again."

"Yes."

Just when Enkidu and Nel made an appointment, two figures loomed in the splashing dust.

Suddenly, the few people who had just fallen to the ground immediately took a fighting stance.

"Ichigo, you finally came down."

"Huh?"

"Is it Captain Unohana?"

After seeing Unohana Retsu, Ishida Uryu, Chad Yasutora, Kurosaki Ichigo, and Inoue Orihime exclaimed and stood up quickly.

You know, before Ichigo Kurosaki and others broke into the Soul Society, they were seriously injured.

The one who helped them heal at that time was the captain of the 4th Division, Unohana Retsu.

"Captain Unohana, why are you here?"

Ichigo Kurosaki asked curiously.

"Because you entered Hueco Mundo, Captain Yamamoto was afraid that you would encounter greater danger in Hueco Mundo, so he asked me and Captain Zaraki of the 11th Division to come to Hueco Mundo for support."

"At the same time, because we appeared in Hueco Mundo, Captain Yamamoto judged that Captain Aizen might think that because we came to Hueco Mundo, the strength of the captains in the real world has been greatly reduced, and he will directly attack the real world."

"This can be regarded as a bait."

Hearing what Captain Unohana Retsu said, Ichigo Kurosaki became more anxious.

If it is true as Captain Unohana Retsu said, the number of captains stationed in the real world is insufficient, will more humans be injured or killed?

"Captain Unohana, has the battle started? How is everyone in Karakura?"

"The war has definitely started, but I don't know what the situation is."

Unohana Retsu shook her head.

She did not lie to Ichigo Kurosaki about this.

After all, even she didn't know how much of a blow this battle with Aizen in Hueco Mundo would cause to the Soul Society, and how many Shinigami members, chief officers, vice-captains, or captains would die in this war.

However, this is the price that must be paid to defeat Aizen.

"Then Captain Unohana, I want to rush back to Karakura to participate in the battle. I wonder if you have any ideas."

"Well, one of my tasks in Hueco Mundo this time is to send you, Ichigo, to the battlefield in Karakura." (End of this chapter)
