Chapter 96: A special mission that kills two birds with one stone, I'll definitely get this Hōgyoku!

The huge size and terrifying spiritual pressure showed that this Hollow was no ordinary creature.

Every time the terrifying Hollow took a step, the ground trembled slightly, and huge depressions appeared wherever it passed. Ordinary people had no idea what was happening and could only flee in panic.

"How is this possible? It's actually a Menos Gnande. You know, this is an enemy that only Onmitsukidō and captain-level Shinigami can deal with."

At this time, Rukia uttered that famous saying.

In fact, with the teachings of Uehara Shiroha, her combat effectiveness was no less than that of an ordinary vice-captain. If she hadn't lost her spiritual power, she would have been able to defeat this Menos Grande. It's just that the textbooks of the Maou Spiritual Academy had not been updated in time, so Rukia misjudged the strength of this Menos Grande.

Feeling the incomparable oppressive force, Ishida Uryu was also shocked: "Impossible, that bait could never attract an existence of this level."

He had felt something was strange a long time ago. This time, the bait attracted too many Hollows, and they could not be killed—not at all. This was obviously wrong. Now that such a being had appeared, even if the bait had expired, it was impossible for it to have such a strong medicinal effect.

Before, he had boasted that he would kill all the Hollows to protect everyone, in order to restore the glory of the Quincies. Now look, what had he protected? Maybe he was more suitable to be a doctor. Anyway, he was a good tailor, and he should be good at suturing wounds.

Kurosaki Ichigo clenched the Zanpakutō in his hand with a solemn expression. He didn't have so many thoughts. No matter how many enemies there were, just chop them and they would be done!

...

In the distance, Inoue Orihime and Chad were looking at the huge monster in front of them with surprise.

Because of the influence of the Hōgyoku and the continuous attacks by the Hollows, the two had awakened their potential power, that is, the power of the Fullbringer. As a result, they saw a world that ordinary people could not see, saw the monster-like Hollows with their own eyes, and discovered the secret of Ichigo Kurosaki.

Because they cared about Ichigo very much, they asked the mysterious-looking store manager Urahara, wanting to know the truth of everything. So, Urahara Kisuke brought the two here and let them get the answer themselves.

The two looked at the huge and extremely terrifying Hollow in front of them with blank faces.

Is this still the world they were familiar with? It turns out that Ichigo had been fighting this kind of terrible monster all along.

"This is the world where your classmate Kurosaki Ichigo lives," Urahara Kisuke pressed down the brim of his hat and said seriously. "You need to think carefully about whether or not to get involved. Don't rush to make a decision, because it concerns your fate."

At the same time, there was one sentence he didn't say: This also concerns his fate.

Urahara Kisuke didn't expect that Kurosaki Ichigo would eventually take this path. Considering the changes that just happened in Naruki City, everything was obvious. It was Aizen who was behind the scenes.

The other party had targeted Kurosaki Ichigo and locked the location of the Hōgyoku. It seemed that there was no way to avoid it this time.

The war was coming, and he couldn't stay out of it, and even innocent people would be implicated. Urahara Kisuke felt very guilty about this, but he couldn't do anything about it. Faced with a strong enemy like Aizen, he could only abandon his extra sympathy. Sacrifice was inevitable.

...

At this time, facing the Menos Grande, Ichigo Kurosaki had already suffered a loss.

Just now, he had raised his Zanpakutō and launched a death charge at the Menos Grande. The result could only be said to be commendable. His sword was more than enough to deal with ordinary hollows, but it was not enough to face the Great Hollow. One slash of the sword couldn't even break the opponent's defense. And the Menos Grande kicked at random and kicked Ichigo Kurosaki back.

After getting up, he wanted to continue to rush forward with a look of dissatisfaction on his face.

"Stop it, you can't beat it like this." Seeing that Ichigo Kurosaki was still "reckless," Ishida Uryu grabbed his weapon and stopped him.

While holding Ichigo Kurosaki's Zanpakutō, Ishida Uryu's body shook, and a large amount of spirit energy poured into his body. He felt unprecedented fullness and strength. This feeling of fullness of power was the first time he had experienced it. Ishida Uryu was confused. His classmate seemed to be more unusual than the Hollow in front of him.

In the end, with his reminder, the two repelled the attacking Hollow. Ichigo Kurosaki was responsible for the burst output, and Ishida Uryu was responsible for using the arrow of light to "relieve the fire" for Ichigo Kurosaki.

After a high-intensity release of the Holy Extinction Arrow, Ishida Uryu's hand was almost criple, and he couldn't fight with all his strength in a short time. Fortunately, the final result was good.

Uehara Shiroha didn't pay attention to all this. He had more important things to do.

He could easily control Suì-Fēng when she was awake, not to mention the confused "little bee" at this moment. By the way, Uehara Shiroha also "instructed" her:

"You can't do this at all. You don't have any energy. Didn't you eat?"

"You are one night behind me. You are far behind me. This is not a difficult job for her."

...

This pair of "good sisters" could be said to have their own characteristics, black and white, "ice and fire." One was a passionate kitten, and the other was an iceberg-like cold beauty.

Hehe!

Uehara Shiroha showed a proud "villain laugh."

At the same time, the system prompted that a new special task had been triggered.

[Special Mission (15) - Obtain the Complete Hōgyoku] [The magic weapon has its spirit, and only those with virtue can possess it. Please, host, obtain the complete Hōgyoku and restore the glory of the magic weapon!] [Reward: Random ability or item]

Uehara Shiroha was delighted when he saw this task. This was a double blessing, killing two birds with one stone. This task came at the perfect time.

Originally, he planned to get this complete Hōgyoku. Isn't this a coincidence? And the system was right.

It would be a waste if this Hōgyoku fell into the hands of Urahara Kisuke and Aizen. Urahara Kisuke was determined to maintain the balance and didn't want to sacrifice blood. To put it nicely, he was an asshole, but in fact he was a fence-sitter and a pure idiot. He clearly researched Hōgyoku, a treasure that could change the world, but he didn't dare to use it, and only wanted to destroy it.

"Even Aizen can't make full use of the Hōgyoku."

The "Big Fluttering Moth Aizen" was directly beaten to the point of breaking its defense, and actively stopped evolving, turning the Hōgyoku in its body into waste.

Therefore, even if there was no such task, Uehara Shiroha would get the Hōgyoku. If converted into a system reward, it was at least SR. It would be a waste to give such a treasure to Aizen and others. Only people with abundant virtues like him were qualified to own it.

As for the difficulty of this task, it was basically not difficult.

If it was just when he crossed over, it would be a bit difficult for him to obtain the Hōgyoku. Now, as long as he followed the plot, he could easily complete this special task.

Urahara Kisuke and Aizen fought countless open and secret battles over the Hōgyoku. In the end, Aizen obtained the complete Hōgyoku. At the beginning, the complete Hōgyoku was in a dormant state, and it took time and resources to fully wake it up.

As before, Uehara Shiroha's main goal was to sit back and enjoy the fruits of others' labor. He just had to wait for the final harvest. He believed that the other party's expression must be very exciting at that time.

Of course, since it was related to special tasks, He also needed to do some preparatory work. However, those trivial tasks would naturally be completed by someone else. This was the benefit of having power.

He only needed to enjoy it, and there would be people doing the work for him without him giving any orders. Uehara Shiroha's original intention of establishing the Court Army was to better enjoy life and complete tasks. Justice, peace, and changing the world had nothing to do with the Court Army.

The only thing that hundreds of people in the Court Army had to do was to please him and serve him. Michibane in the base was the one who understood this the most.

Just like now, without Uehara Shiroha's orders, Michibane came in and got busy, dressing, feeding, kneading shoulders and backs. While doing this, she had a smile on her face, and her eyes, like brown gems, were shining with joy.

She wore a black silk and white skirt maid outfit that Uehara Shiroha liked very much. Her graceful and plump body perfectly interpreted what is called small branches and great results. Her voluptuous and juicy figure made the maid outfit, which was not very formal to begin with, look even more informal and very tempting.

After finishing the serious work, he brought Michibane, whose face was flushed and red, to the small laboratory in the base. There were very advanced equipment here, which were basically sponsored by Urahara Kisuke.

Over the years, Uehara Shiroha had been adhering to the principle of taking advantage of others, and he had almost taken advantage of the poor store manager bald.

At this time, under Michibane's curious gaze, he was fiddling with the remains of yesterday's mutated White Hollow.

Uehara Shiroha was still a little interested in this mutated White that imitated the power of Kurosaki Ichigo.

Although he didn't know much about these technical equipment, he had the ability to see through everything and predict the future [Insight into Everything].

When the proficiency of Observation Haki reached the perfect level, the ability of the same level as Hearing the Sound of All Things was awakened. However, Roger's Hearing the Sound of All Things focused on communication and the pursuit of understanding between people.

Uehara Shiroha's ability focused on insight. He could see through the future and capture all the weaknesses of the enemy. It was a perfect combat ability. He named it [Insight into Everything].

At this time, with the blessing of the perfect level of Observation Haki, his eyes seemed to have turned into the deep and vast universe. They seemed to contain infinite mysteries and could see through infinite mysteries.

Noticing Uehara Shiroha's deep and charming eyes, Michibane's eyes were full of fascination. In the extraordinary world, power is temperament and charm. Compared with appearance and figure, the attraction brought by this absolute power was more deadly and longer-lasting.

After a long time, Uehara Shiroha retracted his gaze, shook his head, and looked disappointed.

"Sir, why is this Hollow so strange?" Michibane's current strength was not weak. Therefore, she could see that the Hollow in front of her was very strange. And ordinary Hollows couldn't attract Uehara Shiroha's attention.

"This is indeed not an ordinary Hollow," Uehara Shiroha no longer had any interest in the wreckage. "But it's nothing special. It's just a poor imitation and a failure. Even less valuable than I expected."

All kinds of power in the world of Bleach were extremely idealistic. A strong power plus a special soul was truly invincible. The same power of the Void, the same power of the Shinigami, the same power of the Quincy, because of the difference in spirit and consciousness, the power was also very different.

The reason why Ichigo Kurosaki was so powerful was not just because he had a unique composite bloodline, but because he was Ichigo Kurosaki.

For example, the mutant in front of him, even if it copied part of Ichigo Kurosaki's bloodline, was still very weak. In the Thousand Year Blood War, although Yhwach absorbed Ichigo Kurosaki's power, he still couldn't use Getsuga Tenshō, which was the most offensive skill in the Three Realms.

Unless they had the Mind Stone and Unlimited Blade Works like Uehara Shiroha. Otherwise, these people would never be able to perfectly copy Ichigo Kurosaki's power. The only one who could do this was him, Uehara Shiroha.

Then set a goal first, his omniscience and omnipotence must surpass the Soul King Yhwach, and his attack power must surpass the double-bladed Ichigo Kurosaki.

...

After returning to the Soul Society, Uehara Shiroha received an order from the Central 46th Office. Some say it is a reward:

"The Captain-Commander of the Court Army, Uehara Shiroha, has made great contributions to the Seireitei, has outstanding leadership skills, and the Court Army has strict discipline. From now on, the Court Army will replace the Sixth Division and the Onmitsukidō to protect the Noble Street."

When this order came out, ordinary Shinigami thought it was nothing, but the senior officials were shocked. The captains of the Eighth Division, Shunsui Kyōraku, and the Sixth Division, Byakuya Kuchiki, were particularly shocked.

At this time, in the captain's office, Shunsui Kyōraku muttered to himself with a puzzled look on his face:

"The Tsunayashiro family clearly knew that Brother Shiroha and I had the best relationship, so how could they agree to such an order? Even if they agreed, that Tsunayashiro Tokinada would make trouble. Why would they issue such an outrageous order? Could it be that they wanted to win over Brother Shiroha?"
