Chapter 568

The ordinary iron gate, devoid of any reinforcement, was easily broken open.

Baraggan strode into Hui's villa, one step at a time. His pace was neither hurried nor slow, much like a king surveying his own territory.

"You broke my door."

A cold voice rang out, causing Baraggan to halt his steps.

He followed the sound and saw a human youth lying on a lounge chair, reading a book, by the enormous French windows of the villa.

"So what?" Baraggan said, not putting Hui in his eyes.

"Nothing much, you just have to pay the price." Hui continued reading, speaking without even looking at Baraggan.

This made Baraggan's face darken. He was the king of Hueco Mundo, even if he wasn't currently, no one had ever disregarded him so.

"I thought that brat had some kind of backing, but I didn't expect it to be just another ignorant little brat. How disappointing." Baraggan spoke in disappointment. 

He didn't sense any aura of a strong person from Hui.

"Ignorance can sometimes be a blessing, but if ignorance is coupled with arrogance, then it becomes the catalyst for death." Hui put down his book and looked at Baraggan.

However, his words only made Baraggan burst into laughter.

"Death? I am the god who governs death, the king of gods. You actually dare to speak of death to me? You are the ignorant one, little human brat."

"King of gods? You, a Hollow, actually claim to be the king of gods? That's too ridiculous."

A mocking voice sounded from behind. 

Baraggan looked back and saw a black cat.

"And what are you? A talking cat? A new species from the human world?" Baraggan looked at Yoru with a puzzled expression, causing Yoru to furrow her brows.

Her figure transformed, shifting into a human form.

This stunned Ichigo. 

The last time he was here, he naturally noticed the black cat in Hui's arms. He originally thought it was just an ordinary cat.

But unexpectedly, this cat could talk!

And, this cat could even transform!!!

The transformation process revealed Yoru's true nature to Baraggan.

"So it's a Shinigami. The ability to transform into a cat is quite impressive." Baraggan continued, his tone turning cold.

"However, you dare to mock this king? This is truly unwise. It will lead to the end of your precious life."

Yoru was speechless upon hearing this. 

This guy had such grand airs, as if the life and death of everyone present were already in his grasp, as if he were the absolute ruler here.

"You're a Hollow, how did you end up in the human world?" Yoru didn't want to waste words with Baraggan and went straight to the point.

Hearing this, Baraggan spoke unhurriedly, "I am the king of Hueco Mundo. I can go wherever I want. Does a little Shinigami like you have any objections?"

Upon hearing this, Yoru was taken aback.

"You're the king of Hueco Mundo? Then what is Aizen?" She asked, somewhat puzzled.

However, after the name Aizen was uttered, an icy aura emanated from Baraggan.

"Aizen is nothing but a thief who usurped the throne! One day, I will reclaim my kingship!" He said in a deep voice, his dissatisfaction with Aizen evident.

After hearing this, Yoru's lips twitched, understanding dawning upon her. 

So this Hollow's so-called "king" was merely a king of the past; his throne had already been seized by Aizen.

"How pathetic. Your throne has been taken, and now you've become a subordinate to the very Shinigami who stole it from you. It's quite admirable that you still have the face to live." Yoru taunted, causing Baraggan's reiatsu to explode.

"Shut up, you ant!"

He attacked directly, flashing to Yoru's side in an instant, his axe swinging down fiercely.

It was evident that Baraggan was truly enraged. 

The person he hated most in his life was Aizen. What he cared about most was the fact that Aizen had taken away his position as the king of Hueco Mundo.

At this moment, Yoru mentioning Aizen, and the fact that Aizen had usurped his throne, completely touched upon Baraggan's reverse scale, enraging him to the point of directly attacking her.

However, Yoru herself was a speed-type fighter, and after her transformation last time, her speed had reached a new level. She easily dodged Baraggan's attack with a flash.

"Not bad for a little Shinigami. However, you shouldn't provoke the king of Hueco Mundo. You will pay the price for this." Baraggan was slightly surprised that Yoru had dodged his attack, but he still didn't take her seriously.

"Senior, this guy seems really powerful. Will sister Cat be in danger?" Ichigo looked at the imposing Baraggan and couldn't help but ask Hui, his tone laced with worry.

Hearing this, Hui smiled, then teasingly said to Yoru, "Yoru, you're being underestimated here."

Yoru inwardly rolled her eyes, then looked at Baraggan, becoming excited. 

But she still continued to question, "You haven't told me yet, what exactly is your purpose in coming to the real world?!"

Seeing Yoru's persistence on this question, Baraggan didn't think too much and said, "My subordinate, Nnoitra Gilga, was killed by a human named Hui. I came to find that human and intend to bring his head back to Hueco Mundo."

As soon as these words came out, both Yoru and Ichigo fell silent, then Yoru couldn't help but burst into laughter.

"Hahahaha, hahahahaha! That's too funny! You actually came to kill Hui!"

She laughed, then looked at Hui, taunting him just as he had taunted her earlier, "This dethroned king of Hueco Mundo is here for you. Why don't you hurry up and twist your own head off as a tribute for him to take back to Hueco Mundo?"

Hui's face darkened.

Hearing this, Baraggan immediately looked at Hui.

"You're that human called Hui? Very well, well done, little rat. You made it easy for me to find you." Baraggan spoke. His anger from being provoked by Yoru subsided a bit.
