Chapter 323: Reappearance Of Muramasa

"Who could have thought that there will be a rematch between us, how unexpected…"

Shunsui took the lead in finding Starrk, the Primera (1st) Espada.

In the Karakura Town battle earlier, they were each other's opponents and had quite compatible personalities, but their battle was forcefully stopped because of Beelzebub. Now that he saw Starrk again, Shunsui felt a little emotional.

"Stop talking nonsense. This time, you shinigamis won't get out of Hueco Mundo alive."

Although Starrk was a lone wolf, he was hollow after all. Shinigami aggressively invaded Hueco Mundo with such an army, and so, even he was a little angry.

What did shinigami take Hueco Mundo for?

Even though Aizen lost in the Karakura Town battle, their Hueco Mundo was still not something to be trifled with.

Now that the shinigami had attacked Hueco Mundo in such a force, they must make them pay the price.

"It seems that this time, it will be different."

Shunsui supported his bamboo hat, and said softly, his eyes became cold, "That's just right, this time, I also don't plan to leave Hueco Mundo until I beat that guy."

Yamamoto was not the only one who was disappointed by Mazuru's betrayal, Shunsui was the same, he was also disappointed and angry.

After Shunsui and Starrk faced off, the captain of the Fifth Division, Shusuke, faced Harribel.

His Zanpakuto, like Yamamoto, was a fire-attribute Zanpakuto, and Harribel's Resurrección, Tiburón (Tiburon; Spanish for "Shark", Japanese for "Supernal Shark Empress") was of water-attribute, so this was going to be a collision between water and fire.

Sixth Division's captain, Byakuya faced Ulquiorra.

During the Karakura Town battle last time, although they both were in Las Noches, they did not collide. This time, when Byakuya was about to attack Mazuru, Ulquiorra immediately stood up and blocked him.

After the battle with Ichigo, Ulquiorra understood the meaning of having a heart, and then refined his Resurrección: Segunda Etapa further, the change in him was that of evolving from originally a semi-autonomous arrancar to a complete-autonomous arrancar.

Now after initially refining the power of his Resurrección: Segunda Etapa, it was just right to try it out on Byakuya.

Sajin, the captain of the Seventh Division, has only one goal, which is Kaname.

Although Toshiro, the captain of the Tenth Division, wanted to face his teacher Mazuru, but after Mazuru started fighting Yamamoto, he finally set his sights on another person.

It was the figure dressed in animal skins and a mask of animal bones.

After he slashed at the other party with a sword, and then being blocked by the opponent's sword, Toshiro's eyes fell on the Zanpakuto in the opponent's hand.

Although the one facing him looked like a hollow from his dress and appearance, but judging from his reiatsu and the Zanpakuto in his hand, there was no doubt that the person in front of him was a shinigami.

"What is going on with the Zanpakuto in your hand?"

Toshiro's deep voice sounded.

"What do you think? Toshiro?"

The masked figure asked back in a deep voice.

Just after Toshiro sensed the reiatsu from the other party and then heard this slightly familiar voice, he couldn't help but being shocked. He gradually had an unbelievable guess in his heart, "You are..... Sojiro?!"

As soon as the word 'Sojiro' came out, Sojiro suddenly became inexplicably angry, and his attacks became more and more fierce, which made Toshiro even more determined of his guess.

Zaraki faced off against Grimmjow, both being warlike, they instantly recognized their own kind.

Perhaps for Zaraki who had awakened his Zanpakuto now, as long as he liberated it, he could easily defeat Grimmjow, but he did not do so, because his purpose of fighting had never been to defeat the enemy, but to enjoy the battle itself.

Of course, besides enjoying the battle, he also had another purpose in participating in this Hueco Mundo expedition, which was to find out where Yachiru went.

Mayuri, the captain of the Twelfth Division, faced Nelliel.

In the previous Karakura Town battle, he had fought against Nelliel, but as a scientific researcher, he was run like a dog by Nelliel's powerful mobility after she performed her Resurrección and suffered a lot.

This time he had faced her again, and he believed that in this second round, he could definitely get the advantage over her.

Although Nelliel was a female, but for him, scientific research had no gender distinction and thus nothing would stop him to use any means he required to secure victory.

Renji, Rukia, Ikkaku, Yumichika, and some other vice-captains faced the Espadas' Fracción, Bounts and others.

Sui Feng, captain of the Second Division, looked at Mazuru who was engaged in close-combat with Yamamoto, and a tiny Zanpakuto appeared on her finger.

She didn't intend to talk about fairness or martial arts, but planned to take the opportunity to attack Mazuru and give him two blows with her Suzumebachi, directly bringing the curtain to this battle.

However, just when she was about to get close.

A figure with the face of a fox suddenly stood in front of her, "My my… Now, I can't let you interfere with Captain Mazuru's battle, can I?"

"Ichimaru Gin!"

Seeing the figure standing in front of her, Sui Feng uttered angrily.

This one was also a traitor.

She immediately shifted her target and attacked Gin.

Gin, as always, squinted his eyes, not paying attention to Sui Feng's anger, but then, another figure appeared beside her, and his expression changed slightly.

"Growl! Haineko!"

A gray mist suddenly erupted with the cry, and Gin immediately knew who it was.

'Rangiku!'

In just a short moment, apart from the ordinary shinigami, captains, vice-captains, and chief officer all had found their opponents.

Of course, one-on-one was unrealistic.

After all, the shinigami side had many people and the Hueco Mundo side, they were all elites, and so, many officers chose to fight with advantageous numbers, and overwhelm their opponents.

…

In the middle of the battlefield.

Mazuru and Yamamoto had been fighting in close-quarters for a while.

Yamamoto had experienced thousands of battles. When he took off his upper garments, the hideous battle scars on his body spoke volumes about the battle-rich history he had.

However, after a short fight, Yamamoto discovered that Mazuru's slashing skills were really good, and he was able to fight back and forth with him by understanding his fighting-style in a short period of time.

Of course, verbally, he won't admit that Mazuru was very strong, so he just taunted him, "Is that all you have?"

"Of course it's more than that. In fact, when you came here with a large force from the Soul Society for this battle, and didn't even think about pride, I too, planned to not care about using under-handed tricks anymore."

"Do you think that after I opened such a large enchantment for having a unfair-duel with your Soul Society with disadvantageous numbers?"

Mazuru's figure suddenly disappeared.

He retreated to the side, and immediately, with a wave of his arm, the ground rippled like the surface of water, and a figure that had been sleeping in it for a long time slowly rose up, and then opened his eyes.

After seeing this figure, Byakuya's complexion, who was fighting Ulquiorra, changed. Many people who had seen his figure before had also stared intently.

"Muramasa…"

The figure in front of them was obviously Muramasa who once orchestrated the Zanpakuto rebellion.

'But, isn't Muramasa a Zanpakuto? He should have died after the death of his master Kuchiki Koga, so why did he appear here?'

Immediately, Muramasa's voice suddenly sounded.

"Bankai——"

"Mukōjōchū Muramasa!"

A lavender light spread instantly, staining the blood-red world with a touch of weirdness.
