Awkwardly posing for a while, Ichigo felt he could almost dig out a three-bedroom apartment with his toes underground.
Ichigo said helplessly: "Who suggested coming here and posing? So stupid!"
Fei Kuan silently pointed his finger towards the other side.
Pointed at by Fei Kuan's finger, Sister Mei was very awkward.
"Ah this, isn't this influenced by that idiot Madarame? Sorry, sorry!"
"But it's strange. That person's surveillance monitors cover the entire Soul Society. He should have known we were coming immediately. Why hasn't there been any reaction yet?"
Fei Kuan said puzzled.
"As for that, let's go in and see." Ichigo shrugged, taking the lead to step into the Spy Equipment Development Unit, preparing to find another Player.
Yes, the reason Ichigo and the other two came late at night was for one person… the Xiguo genius Player, Lan Da!
All gifts fate gives you have their price secretly marked from the start.
Lan Da had persecuted Dongguo Players for so long. It was time for him to pay the price!
And watching Ichigo enter the Spy Equipment Development Unit, the live stream audience, who were already exhausted from the high-intensity fight scenes of the day, once again stirred their emotions and spoke up.
"Finally here!"
"Heaven's wheel of justice spares no one! This Lan Da, now he's finally going to die, right? I've been staying up like an eagle trainer and still not sleeping!"
"Previous commenter, same here. Classic being eagle-trained by the streamer."
"Just stay up. It's just staying up late. Is this staying up late? Clearly it's cultivating immortality! More than that, I'm worried about Lan Da's methods."
"Why worry about that? Someone, send two scouts!"
"Report, Commander! The enemy forces, hearing of the arrival of the Royal Army, have long been lost their courage. They are now in their room thinking frantically, wanting to beg the Royal Army to spare their life."
"Spare? Not much ability but quite imaginative. See if Ichigo cuts you down or not. Alright, since that's the case, no need to mind it anymore!"
The outside audience had already designed Lan Da's death.
But Ichigo, at this moment, didn't know the other side was so pathetic.
Until he opened the deepest door.
Lan Da, who looked majestic, tall, and imposing even without anger, yet became soft the moment Ichigo's gaze swept over him, appeared before his eyes!
Without waiting for the other to speak, Ichigo asked Fei Kuan: "It's him?"
"Hm, it's him."
"Good!"
Ichigo nodded, using a Shunpo.
The next moment, a high-flying head soared, then quickly returned.
The Shinigami replaced by Lan Da fell into unconsciousness, but everyone knew that the Xiguo genius who only focused on internal strife had been declared gone.
"Let's go!" Ichigo turned around to leave.
But at this moment, his expression suddenly froze!
It wasn't because Lan Da pulled some trick.
It was because he received something else!
Because Lan Da had game coins pressed against him, and Ichigo was the one who executed it, so he received 60% of these game coins!
Added to his previous gains, Ichigo's game coin reserves reached a huge 63.1 billion!
The price to purchase his own Zanpakuto was enough! (T/N: It seems the Author has indeed made a mistake. A new Zanpakuto is only 60 billion, not 600 billion.)
'In that case...'
…
On the way back to their lodgings, Ichigo operated the game coin shop!
Thus, he has obtained his own Zanpakuto!
Soul Society.
One week after Aizen's betrayal!
The 11th Division's open-air training ground!
"Getsuga Tensho!"
"Slash!"
A sky-blue crescent and a golden Kenatsu collided intensely.
Booooom-
Under the powerful Reiatsu clash of Ichigo and Zaraki, the recently repaired 11th Division's training ground once again blasted open a large crater!
Billowing smoke and dust rushed towards them.
Feeling that strong wind and choking dust, Ikkaku and Sister Mei were also extremely surprised.
"Both Captain and Ichigo have gotten stronger again!" Ikkaku sighed.
"Yeah!" Sister Mei nodded.
Simultaneously, Yachiru also smiled cutely, her eyes excited looking at the two clashing blades:
"Ichigo-chan is so good! Ken-chan is very happy right now!"
Yachiru's eyes showed yearning. "If only Ichigo-chan could stay here with Ken-chan forever!"
"Uh..." Hearing Yachiru's words, the corner of Yoruichi the cat's mouth twitched and she mumbled quietly:
"That kind of thing, even if Ichigo is willing to fight Zaraki Kenpachi, it's impossible. The vacation is about to end! He's not a true battle maniac."
Just as Yoruichi the cat said,
On the field, after a series of blade exchanges, forcefully slashing away Zaraki, Ichigo suddenly stopped moving.
Seeing Ichigo like this, Zaraki also stopped.
He seemed to realize something. His fanatical smile gradually faded, and he silently spat in frustration:
"Tch, so it ends here?"
Ichigo answered with a smile: "Yeah, sorry Kenpachi. This week's rehabilitation training is about enough!"
"Although with your personality, you won't be satisfied, but you should have had a bit of fun, right?"
Hearing Ichigo's words, even if dissatisfied and really wanted to recklessly slash forward and continue fighting, Zaraki could only accept.
Because Ichigo couldn't control him, but he could control Yachiru!
Under Ichigo's candy offensive, Yachiru defected splendidly.
With Yachiru being able to torment Zaraki, Ichigo didn't need to fear this battle maniac slashing at him at all.
So, this week could be said to be the happiest week since entering Bleach.
A major story arc passed, and he has plenty of free time.
He could, under Yoruichi's lead, tour the 2nd Division, enjoy teasing Sui-Feng, getting her murderous gaze and little bee's stings.
He could, relying on his connection with Rukia, go to the Kuchiki House to freeload meals and drinks, and also pay respects to Kuchiki Hisana.
He could go to the 10th Division to interfere with Hitsugaya's daily work, drink with Rangiku and admire her assets.
He could pet the dog at Komamura's place, then treat the dog bite wound at Unohana's place, after having afternoon tea, then exercise with Zaraki to digest the afternoon tea snacks, and then tease Yachiru.
It could be said, having completely transformed into a loafer image, Ichigo made a wave of friends in the Soul Society.
But happy times are always short. Before returning to the Living World, Ichigo still had one thing to handle.
Ichigo turned his head to look at the entrance of the 11th Division.
There, wearing an elegant purple plum blossom kimono, Rukia stood quietly, not showing any trace of her former rough appearance.
"Ichigo, I am ready! It should be about time!" Rukia nodded to Ichigo.
"Alright, then let's go!" Ichigo took Rukia and Yoruichi the cat all the way towards outside the Seireitei.
Not long after-
West Rukongai, Shiba House!
Knock knock knock...
Gentle knocking sounds sounded.
"Who is it?"
Ganju, who had been looking after the house these past few days, opened the main gate.
Ichigo, wearing common Shinigami uniform, an Asauchi at his waist, and a large sword on his back-
And Rukia, not carrying a Zanpakuto but wearing a dignified kimono, appeared before him.
Ichigo having two Zanpakuto was a bit strange.
But with the game's existence providing reasonable justification, there was no fear of others discovering the issue.
As Kukaku's younger brother, Shiba Ganju naturally also deeply remembered the day he sent Ichigo in.
Because these days in the Rukongai, Ichigo could be said to be unrivaled in reputation.
Entering the Seireitei as a mere Ryoka, defeating five Captains in a row, and finally being treated as an honored guest… this experience was simply unimaginable.
Whenever hearing, Ganju felt a shared pride.
'Kurosaki Ichigo is strong, right? I sent him in!' Such thoughts constantly spread in his heart!
These days, Shiba Ganju had always wanted to see Ichigo again, viewing him as an idol.
At this moment, seeing Ichigo, Ganju was also extremely pleasantly surprised.
But his pleasant surprise didn't last long.
Just like a computer accessing files, files on the local drive are always read faster than files on a flash drive.
Recently very familiar with Ichigo, Ganju recognized him first, and also recognized Rukia not long after.
Looking at Rukia, Ganju's face, which just had a smile, twisted.
"You... you're the Shinigami who killed my older brother, right? You actually still have the nerve to come here!"
As he spoke, Ganju ferociously threw a punch at Rukia!
Watching Ganju's incoming fist, Rukia reflexively crouched to dodge.
But seeming to remember something, she straightened up again, closed her eyes, preparing to take this punch.
But how could Ichigo let Rukia be hit?
