Chapter 237 The Trembling Hueco Mundo
Yammy slowly raised his head, and a blinding light was gathering in his gaping maw. His spiritual pressure also instantly rose to a terrifying level.
"Using Cero with such a massive body, trying to destroy Karakura Town? Is Yammy insane?" Ulquiorra frowned slightly, his mind turning away. He didn't want to become Yammy's victim.
Chu Yang moved first, quickly flying into the sky. [Fengdu] circled in the void, outlining the shape of the Ghost Gate.
Engraved with hideous demons, the gates of hell stand between heaven and earth. As Yami releases a phantom flash, the gates open.
The Hollow Flash, containing extremely high spiritual pressure, seemed to be drawn by something, abruptly changing direction in mid-air and rushing headlong into the Gate of Hell.
Seeing this, Yammy tried to change the trajectory of the Cero, but found that the Cero he released was out of control and was being continuously sucked into the Gate of Hell.
He tried to stop it, to interrupt the Cero, but he couldn't. The Gate of Hell, high in the sky, acted like a pump, forcibly drawing away Yammy's Cero, along with the spiritual energy within his body.
Yammy, pale as a ghost, looked as if a vampire had bitten his neck, unable to resist, watching himself being drained dry bit by bit.
His body, which had been a colossal mass enveloping the city, slowly returned to its original size, and the anger that welled up from the bottom of his heart completely turned into terror.
The Ghost Gate continued to absorb spiritual energy until Yami was completely drained and turned into a pile of ashes in the wind.
Ulquiorra watched the entire process of Yammy's death from the side, a chill running down his spine. He was not afraid of death, but the way Yammy died was too terrifying for a Hollow to be afraid of.
Not only would it be a void, but even Death himself would break out in a cold sweat.
"There's one more."
Chu Yang's voice came from behind Ulquiorra. He turned around in fright and found that the other person was standing just a few steps away.
[Fengdu] A flash of sword light, and Ulquiorra's figure disappeared, leaving behind a dark void that tore through space and slowly closed.
"A black box? You're pretty fast."
Chu Yang shook his head with some regret. The Black Hole was a skill of the Arrancar that used spiritual pressure to forcibly break through space, and it could directly connect to Las Noches, the place where Aizen was located.
This method of leaving is even more advanced than the anti-membrane technique Aizen used in Soul Society. The teleportation process is still invincible, and if it cannot be interrupted from the beginning, you can only watch the other party leave.
Ulquiorra activated his Black Hole the moment Yammy resurrected, preparing to leave. By the time Chu Yang finished dealing with Yammy, he had naturally missed the opportunity to interrupt the skill.
However, taking down one of the Espada is still a decent gain. With the Demon Gate devouring Yammy, Fengdu is closer to Bankai.
The day I see Aizen again will be the day I unleash my Bankai.
Chu Yang was looking forward to that day.
Turning her head, she saw that Orihime had already fainted on the ground. The battle with Yammy had kept her highly focused, and when Chu Yang arrived to save the day, her focus had relaxed. Coupled with the high-intensity spiritual pressure, she could no longer withstand it and passed out.
Chu Yang picked up Orihime and prepared to leave when several powerful spiritual pressures suddenly appeared nearby and quickly rushed towards them.
Ichigo, Rukia, Kisuke Urahara, Yoruichi Shihouin... They wandered around but couldn't find Chu Yang. This was because Chu Yang had set up a barrier around them before joining the battle.
They even resorted to spells, magic, and divine arts, not only to protect the city but also to prevent Ulquiorra from leaving.
The results were less than ideal; the city was not damaged, but Ulquiorra escaped successfully. This made Chu Yang realize that the Black Hole's abilities were far more advanced than he had imagined.
Chu Yang removed the barrier, and the group was able to reach him without any trouble.
"Was that an Arrancar? Were you fighting an Arrancar?"
Kisuke Urahara sensed the lingering spiritual pressure around him and his gaze lingered on the unconscious Orihime.
"Two Arrancar, one dead and one escaped. A guy named Ulquiorra escaped. They claimed to be Espada under Aizen and possessed the ability to transform into Shinigami."
Chu Yang briefly explained the current situation in Hueco Mundo, mostly based on information he already knew, which he shared during the battle.
Urahara Kisuke and the others were shocked. They hadn't expected Aizen to have developed the Hogyoku to such an extent that he could create a large number of Arrancar at will.
"We must immediately notify the Soul Society and make the Seireitei take this seriously."
Rukia turned and walked to a corner, using a special communicator to contact the Seireitei. She was unaware that the Seireitei had already detected the Arrancar's appearance in the human world.
While Rukia immediately thought of Soul Society, Kisuke Urahara's attention was entirely focused on Chu Yang's words about one dying and the other escaping.
"You defeated two Arrancars all by yourself?" Kisuke Urahara's eyes flashed as he said in surprise, "I remember that when Captain-level Shinigami operate in the human world, their spiritual pressure is restricted."
"Did you get permission in advance?"
Chu Yang shook his head and said, "No, my spiritual pressure was indeed restricted."
Hearing Chu Yang's frank words, Yoruichi Shihōin and Kisuke Urahara exchanged a silent glance.
Facing two Arrancars with his spiritual pressure restricted, and even killing one of them, his combat prowess is something only a very few people in the entire Soul Society could achieve.
The young man before me has been a Grim Reaper for less than a year.
Listening to their conversation, Ichigo subconsciously tightened his grip on the hilt of his Zanpakuto. Then, he took a deep breath, walked up to Chu Yang, and said, "Yang, thank you for saving Orihime. Leave her to me; I'll take her home."
"Perfect timing, I don't know where she lives either." Chu Yang casually put Orihime on Ichigo's shoulder. He was overjoyed that someone was helping him deal with the trouble.
After Ichigo left, Rukia, who had finished communicating with Soul Society, returned and said with a serious expression, "Soul Society will send reinforcements to the Human World."
Chu Yang frowned and asked, "They still don't agree to go to Hueco Mundo?"
"Yes," Rukia sighed. "The Captain-Commander still doesn't agree to organize a team to go to Hueco Mundo, but I've already reported the matter of the Spirit Lands."
Chu Yang remained silent; he knew what Soul Society's plan was.
The Shinigami will create a fake Karakura Town in Soul Society, and then exchange it with the real Karakura Town in the human world, hiding the real Karakura Town in Soul Society.
After luring Aizen to the real world, the two sides will engage in a great battle in the fake Karakura Town, and Yamamoto wants to gain some home-field advantage.
The idea was good, but the power of the Hogyoku was underestimated.
Aizen even used life-or-death crises to complete several evolutions, reaching a level that transcended the power of the Shinigami.
After his evolution, Aizen fought his way to Soul Society and almost achieved his goal.
Aizen's defeat was inevitable. Chu Yang didn't care about Aizen's fate; he only wanted Aizen's Hogyoku.
The reinforcements from Soul Society arrived quickly, and Chu Yang's house was packed with people.
Toshiro, who looks like an elementary school student, sat arrogantly on the sofa, while Renji wandered around curiously, looking at Chu Yang's home in the real world.
Matsumoto Rangiku was chatting with Rukia, the two whispering to each other, their eyes occasionally glancing in Chu Yang's direction.
With his shiny bald head, Madarame Ikkaku swayed back and forth in front of Chu Yang. The sunlight shining on his head made him look like a high-powered light bulb.
Chu Yang subconsciously pressed down on his head.
"Captain Yang, what are you doing?"
She raised an eyebrow and looked at Chu Yang with an unfriendly expression.
"It's too bright, could you please find a hat to wear?"
Chu Yang said without any mercy.
In a fit of anger, Yijiao got angry for a moment, then readily agreed and took a fisherman's hat from the dressing room and put it on.
Kenpachi Zaraki's favorite battle was with Chu Yang, because the latter never showed mercy and always brought him to the brink of death.
One of the few bystanders witnessed the ruthlessness of this kind young man, leaving a heavy shadow in his heart.
The person he respected most was Kenpachi Zaraki, and his only wish was to die fighting beside him.
However, Kenpachi Zaraki was often beaten up by Chu Yang, so he was even more afraid of Chu Yang.
These people were reinforcements from Soul Society: one captain and three vice-captains. Calling them reinforcements was a stretch; they were more like bait.
The biggest bait is Chu Yang.
His feud with Aizen is well-known. As the person who personally sabotaged Aizen's plans, describing them as mortal enemies is not enough.
The Hogyoku Restoration Project was meticulously planned by Aizen for a hundred years, but it was all ruined by a small accident.
As the source of the accident, Chu Yang must bear the resentment of Aizen's century-long efforts turning into nothing.
If Aizen knew that Chu Yang was in the mortal world, he would have gone to great lengths to find him.
These are Yamamoto's original words.
Knowing he had been used as bait, Chu Yang cursed, "Damn old man, when I get back I'll usurp the position, kick him off as captain, demote him to a cleaner, and wipe every corridor in Seireitei with a rag."
She silently walked to a corner and pretended not to hear.
Toshiro walked over to the TV cabinet and pretended to fiddle with it.
Rangiku and Rukia's voices suddenly grew louder, and they began asking and answering each other incoherently.
Only Renji patted Chu Yang on the shoulder, gave him a thumbs up, and respected him as a warrior.
"If you want to become Captain-Commander, take down Aizen first, and then we'll follow the rules of the Shinigami."
The old man Yamamoto's voice suddenly came from Renji.
Chu Yang looked at him with a question mark on his face.
Then Renji slowly pulled out a communicator from his pocket, grinned, and smiled like an idiot. "It's a call from Soul Society. I was just about to tell you."
"There's no dinner for you tonight, go eat shit." Chu Yang took the communicator and then pushed Renji aside.
On the other end of the communicator, Yamamoto's voice came again, "While Aizen hasn't arrived yet, you guys set up the barrier first. I'm going to teleport the real Karakura Town to Soul Society."
Chu Yang replied expressionlessly, "Understood."
After a long while, old man Yamamoto sighed and warned, "Don't let Aizen steal the Hogyoku. If he has two Hogyoku, it will be a disaster for the whole world."
Chu Yang replied, "He can't take it away."
Old man Yamamoto was furious. "You brat, how dare you lie to me! The Hogyoku was clearly on you, why didn't you say so sooner!"
Chu Yang clicked his tongue and lied subtly, saying, "You guys didn't find out, so what does it have to do with me? I only found out later."
The sound of something being smashed came from the other end of the communicator, scaring Toshiro and the others so much that they didn't dare to breathe. After things quieted down, the old man's voice rang out again.
"In short, so much time has passed, and you've almost fully fused with the Hogyoku. It'll be difficult to take it now unless we kill you."
"Remember, don't follow Aizen's path. Don't get lost in power, and don't have any thoughts of becoming a god. The purpose of a Shinigami is only one: to maintain the balance of the three realms!"
"you……"
Before he could finish speaking, Chu Yang cut off the communicator, and a signal interruption sound came from the other end.
Renji gasped, his eyes widening as he asked, "Are you crazy?!"
"Older people just love to nag. You should spend more time caring for elderly people living alone in the future." Chu Yang said nonchalantly, then tossed the communicator to Renji.
"The Captain-Commander doesn't need any pampering." Rangiku shook her head, then looked at Chu Yang. "You also have a Hogyoku?"
Chu Yang turned to look at Rukia, who immediately understood and asked, "Is it the piece hidden inside my body?"
Chu Yang nodded.
Toshiro stretched, hands behind his head, and said, "I've checked countless times, using all sorts of tricks from Soul Society. How did you manage to hide it?"
"It didn't hide; it went in by itself." Chu Yang was telling the truth. The Bengyu itself entered the Soul Palace and couldn't get out. What did it have to do with him? No matter how you blame him, you can't blame him.
"Does this thing have consciousness?" Toshiro asked curiously.
"In a sense, yes." Chu Yang felt that the Hogyoku was more like artificial intelligence. Its understanding of the host's desires was precise, just like a computer analyzing human behavior.
Upon hearing that the Hogyoku had self-awareness, everyone felt a chill run down their spines. That thing was different from a Zanpakuto; it was not one with one's own soul.
"Let's not talk about the Hogyoku anymore," Rukia interrupted, reminding everyone, "Let's finish the mission first. Teleporting the entire Karakura Town to Soul Society is no small undertaking."
"Okay, let's get started."
All the Grim Reapers, including Chu Yang, will be busy for a long time tonight. However, it's not just them; the entire Seireitei is also in action, operating like a machine with perfect precision.
Meanwhile, Ichigo, greatly stimulated, began his frantic Hollowfication training.
Hollow White, also known as Zangetsu, sensed Ichigo's change and was alarmed. In just a few days, the boy had changed from his usual indecisiveness to a more resolute heart.
Curious about Ichigo's reasons for changing, it asked him during the battle, "What's your reason for no longer hesitating?"
Ichigo roared, "If I continue to stagnate, I won't be able to protect anyone around me, and besides..."
"And what?" Hollow keenly sensed Ichigo's emotional change.
Ichigo's eyes suddenly sharpened. "If I don't get stronger, I really won't be able to catch up with him..."
.........
Hueco Mundo.
Ulquiorra reported the situation in the present world to Aizen.
Some people expressed disdain for his choice to abandon his companions and run away, while others expressed understanding.
Aizen remained silent, his silence terrifying.
until……
He heard the man's name from Ulquiorra.
The entire Hueco Mundo Palace trembled violently.
Anger burned like a flame.
