Byakuya and Renji left.
Although Hui's tea was truly amazing and greatly beneficial to their training, staying here felt too oppressive for them.
Facing Hui, they found it difficult to relax their vigilance and act natural.
After Byakuya and Renji left, Rukia and Ichigo awkwardly shifted in their spots.
They didn't know Hui, and this time they had intruded without permission, which was impolite.
"Se-Senior, thank you for your hospitality, but we have something to do, so we'll be going now," Ichigo cautiously said.
He didn't know why, but even though Hui seemed very calm and approachable, he felt a sense of terror in his heart.
His intuition told him that this person in front of him was far more frightening than the two Shinigami from earlier.
Watching Ichigo and Rukia leave, Retsu spoke. "You seem very interested in that boy." She said, observing Hui's expression.
Hui didn't intend to hide anything and nodded. "Indeed, I wanted to confirm something with him, but unfortunately, there were no results."
Finishing his words, Hui withdrew his gaze and looked at Retsu, the perceptive Shinigami, and said, "There's been a strange occurrence in Hueco Mundo. Are you interested in going to see what's happening?"
Retsu was taken aback by these words.
After all, Hui had just received information about the Hueco Mundo anomaly from Byakuya, and she hadn't expected him to immediately plan to investigate.
"Sure, I have nothing better to do anyway."
"Alright, let's go then." Seeing Retsu agree, Hui formed a single-handed seal, and a pitch-black circular hole appeared in the space before him.
This was a Garganta;
Amidst Yoruichi's silent complaints, Hui picked up Yoruichi and stepped through the gate with Retsu.
The scene changed, and they were now in Hueco Mundo.
"It's been a long time since I've been to this place. It's still as desolate as ever," Retsu said, looking around.
She didn't particularly like this place.
"How should we investigate?" she asked Hui.
"Let's just walk around and see. We're not in a hurry," Hui replied casually. Retsu and the others didn't know the reason for the Hueco Mundo anomaly, but he new clearly that all of this was caused by Aizen.
Therefore, all they needed to do next was find Las Noches, where Aizen was located.
"Alright," Retsu replied helplessly.
After spending this time with Hui, she realized that he was someone who acted on a whim and was always unpredictable.
However, such a person was precisely the most difficult to control.
Flying along the way, although Hui's goal was clear – Las Noches, where Aizen was – Although he didn't actually know the exact location of Las Noches.
However, some things didn't require searching; they would come to you on their own.
"You are... Captain Retsu Unohana, Captain of the 4th Division of the Gotei 13?!" Looking at the two people and one cat before him, Nnoitra Gilga was flabbergasted.
He even wondered if he was seeing things.
However, judging from the spiritual pressure emanating from them, he hadn't mistaken their identities.
"This is great! I didn't expect a Shinigami Captain to come to Hueco Mundo, and to this place, no less. Although she's just the Captain of the medical division, which doesn't seem to have much combat power, as a Captain, she shouldn't be so fragile that she'd shatter at a touch."
A creepy smile spread across Nnoitra Gilga's face as he looked at Retsu, his eyes overflowing with a dense battle intent.
He was a complete battle maniac, the kind of cold-blooded and ruthless pervert who would go all out regardless of the enemy's state.
Of course, if you want to call this a wholehearted devotion towards battle, then I, as the narrator has nothing to say.
"Although I'm used to it, I still can't help but want to complain about your aesthetics. This attire really ruins one's mood."
Hui spoke, looking at the non-mainstream Nnoitra, feeling speechless. As a glorious and powerful Espada, this image was too cheap.
"Human brat? What nonsense are you spouting?" Nnoitra's face immediately turned cold as he heard Hui's words.
"Nothing, I just think you look comical," Hui said with a serious expression, causing Nnoitra's lips to twitch.
"You have no spiritual pressure at all, nor the disgusting aura of a Quincy. From the looks of it, you're just a human ant. To think even ants would dare to speak to in such a manner."
As Nnoitra spoke, he swung his Zanpakutō, the huge crescent blade gleaming with a cold light, slashing horizontally towards Hui as if to cut him in half! This strike was truly powerful.
As a member Sōsuke Aizen's Espada, and a self-proclaimed strongest Espada, he was not weak at all.
In the original story, Nnoitra had once overpowered Kenpachi Zaraki wielding his sword with one hand, and he had also right about killed Chad with a single blow after his powers were awakened, proving his strength.
Moreover, Nnoitra also had the officially recognized highest Hierro hardness among the Espada.
Therefore, although Nnoitra's sudden attack seemed simple, if it were an ordinary Shinigami seated officer, or even a Lieutenant-level Shinigami, they might be killed instantly.
Facing Nnoitra's attack, Hui stood still, neither dodging nor flinching, as if he was frozen in fear.
This made the madness on Nnoitra's face even more intense.
He grinned ferociously, not only showing no intention of holding back but also increasing his slashing force and speed.
"Die, brat!" Roaring loudly, Nnoitra's Zanpakutō fiercely passed through Hui's body.
"What?!"
The momentum of the missed swing caused Nnoitra's body to sway.
His eyes were filled with disbelief as he looked at Hui, who was standing unharmed in the same spot where he should have been cut in half. He spoke in astonishment.
"It seems that not only is your fashion sense poor, but your character is also quite bad, to actually sneak attack a human child," Hui said, his tone playful.
This playful tone made Nnoitra feel mocked. His cold expression hardened again, and he shouted, "You arrogant brat!!"
Saying that, Nnoitra attacked Hui once more.
This time, he was serious and observed carefully, sensing and trying to understand Hui's methods and how he had dodged his attack just now.
However...
"This guy..." Feeling the emptiness of another missed swing, Nnoitra looked at Hui standing in place, his heart growing heavy.
