A dimensional journey starting from the Dragon Clan

Chapter 557 550. Kuchiki Rukia: Why are you like this!

"You, this, guy!"

Kurosaki Ichigo gritted his teeth and squeezed out angry words word by word. The spiritual pressure rising to the sky with anger seemed to be able to swallow everything.

Not only Kurosaki Ichigo, but also Inoue Orihime on the side was also very angry at the moment.

"unacceptable……"

She looked at the puppet that Kyon created from Kurosaki Ichigo's memories.

Is this what Kurosaki's mother looks like? Just by listening to Long Gui's previous description, she knew that this was probably a gentle and beautiful elder.

But now, this Hollow has used such despicable means to reproduce the most sacred thing in Kurosaki's heart. This is blasphemy, an insult, and absolutely unforgivable!

Thinking of this, looking at the injured and angry Kurosaki roaring, she wanted to step forward to help, but was gently held down by a hand.

"Why are you?"

Inoue Orihime looked at Xuanhao who suddenly appeared next to her with some confusion.

She didn't understand why the other party stopped her.

Now that Kurosaki is in danger, isn't it time for help?

"That's enough. It's good that you can awaken your power, but you'd better not help him now." Xuan Hao shook his head slightly and said.

He allowed Inoue Orihime to come here just because the conditions were met and there was a chance for this girl to awaken her power in advance.

But regarding Kurosaki Ichigo's battle, he had no intention of intervening from the beginning.

The reason is simple. It has nothing to do with him at all, but it does have something to do with Inoue Orihime.

"But……"

Inoue Orihime, whose thoughts were occupied by her emotions, seemed to only care about the safety of Kurosaki Ichigo, and had not yet realized the most important thing, so she was still hesitant.

"He's right."

Kuchiki Rukia stepped forward with a heavy expression.

Seeing Kurosaki Ichigo fighting at this moment, she couldn't help but think of a person.

That was the one who led her on the road to death.

"There are some battles that we cannot intervene in. You can save his life by helping him now, but at the same time he will lose his dignity forever."

"But... what is dignity compared to life?" Inoue Orihime was still puzzled.

"Yes...it's nothing..." Rukia Kuchiki smiled bitterly, because she thought so too, "But someone told me that there are two types of battles. Whenever you are in a battle, it is important to distinguish between these two points. ——Fighting to survive, and fighting for dignity. The current Ichigo...is fighting for dignity."

"ha?"

Xuanhao made a surprised sound after hearing Kuchiki Rukia's words.

"Um..." Kuchiki Rukia was stunned, "Is there anything wrong with what I said?"

She wondered, wasn't she agreeing with this man's point of view? Why does this guy look so surprised?

"Aren't you talking nonsense? Of course it's not right."

Xuan Hao said seriously, "Of course life is more important than dignity. If your life is gone, what dignity do you need? Do you want to wait until someone dies before you regret why you didn't help?"

"you……"

Kuchiki Rukia's words stung the most vulnerable part of her heart.

It does not make sense! This man must be sick! ? Just now you were clearly saying, ‘It’s best not to help now’, why did you suddenly change your mind?

"Oh, you seem to have misunderstood me."

Xuanhao looked at the confused Kuchiki Rukia with a headache. This child was not easy. A bunch of people were playing tricks on her, and she was almost ruined.

"You are indeed right. Kurosaki Ichigo is fighting for his dignity, but I didn't ask Orihime not to help because I wanted to be considerate of his 'self-esteem'."

"Why is that?" Kuchiki Rukia looked confused.

"Stupid, can't you see that this girl likes this boy?"

Xuan Hao helplessly covered his face with an expression like 'I wouldn't blame you if you old maid couldn't tell'.

"Ah! I, I, I..." Orihime Inoue, who was on the side, turned into Steam Princess instantly after hearing these words and began to feel at a loss.

"For such childish reasons?"

Kuchiki Rukia was stunned.

Feeling: You just want to prevent Inoue Orihime from leaving a bad impression on Kurosaki Ichigo, so you make fun of Kurosaki Ichigo's life?

What kind of person is this!

"childish?"

Xuan Hao was not happy when he heard this. Is there anything more important in this world than his sister's future? And isn’t Kurosaki Ichigo not dead yet? What are these people worrying about...

As a son of this world, Kurosaki Ichigo is a person favored by fate. It would be wrong if he could be easily killed by such a thing.

"You damn girl, you deserve to be shown off by your brother."

"Huh? What does this have to do with my brother?" Rukia Kuchiki became more and more confused as she listened. Why did this matter have to do with her brother again?

······

"Aqiu——"

Somewhere in the Soul Society, a man with a paralyzed face that had not changed for thousands of years sneezed very rarely.

He looked at the blooming cherry blossoms in the courtyard and seemed to think of something, "It's been a while since Lucia came to this world. Why has there been no news?"

······

"hateful!"

Looking at the few humans next to him who suddenly started chatting, Xu felt that he had been insulted like never before.

Of course, it heard clearly what these people were chatting about, and they seemed to be discussing whether to come up and help the kid in front of them.

This is too disrespectful! ?

The most important thing is that this group of people discussed for a long time and finally decided not to come to help.

Does this mean that this half-hearted Death can kill it?

"You guys, I will make you regret it!"

"Hey, where are you paying attention?"

With his spiritual pressure reaching its peak, Ichigo Kurosaki put his Zanpakutō on his shoulders and asked expressionlessly.

"Boy, are you so anxious to die?"

Xu blocked the puppet in front of him and looked disdainfully at the god of death in front of him, whose abdomen was constantly overflowing with blood.

In its view, this kid was obviously just holding on. He was injured and couldn't bear to attack the puppet. Why was he so arrogant in front of him?

With that said, it started to approach Kurosaki Ichigo with its puppet.

What puzzled it was that Kurosaki Ichigo didn't react at all when he saw it approaching behind the puppet.

Do you have no strength to move anymore?

Sure enough, the burst of spiritual pressure just now was nothing more than a bluff.

Thinking of this, a ferocious smile appeared on Xu's pale mask.

It used its puppet to get close to Kurosaki Ichigo's body, sealing off all the space where the opponent could attack.

"Ichigo... put the knife away quickly. Do you really want to attack mom?"

The puppet's mouth imitated the familiar voice in Kurosaki Ichigo's memory.

Facing the oncoming puppet, the expression on Kurosaki Ichigo's face did not change at all, because he knew that there was a fatal murderous intention hidden behind this puppet.

"go to hell!"

The virtual face thrust out its sharp claws with a ferocious face, showing no mercy.

Kurosaki Ichigo was reluctant to attack the puppet, but it was different. It wanted to pierce both the puppet and this god of death!

But perhaps because the puppet blocked its view, it did not see the expression on Kurosaki Ichigo's face at this moment.

"Speaking of which, I really want to thank you... for letting me really see my mother again."

Kurosaki Ichigo looked at the puppet that was close to him and said easily.

His originally expressionless face showed a little tenderness, but after the tenderness, he returned to indifference again.

"In return, let me send you to the West!"

The violent spiritual pressure that had been suppressed for a long time poured into the Zanpakutō from the palm of his hand in an instant.

"puff--"

When Ichigo Kurosaki and the puppet were pressed together, Hollow's sharp claws instantly penetrated them both.

But the next moment, it realized something was wrong.

Can't pull it out!

Its arms were tightly clasped by the Shinigami in front of it as if they were embedded in steel plates. Then, it felt an unprecedented terrifying spiritual pressure exploding in front of its eyes.

"I told you, I'm going to cut you into pieces!"

Kurosaki Ichigo circled the puppet in his arms with one hand, grabbed the opponent's sharp claw that pierced them, and swung down the Zanpakuto on his shoulder with one hand.

After the previous battle, he vaguely seemed to have mastered the use of spiritual pressure. Although it was not complete, he knew that even if he simply injected spiritual power into his Zanpakutō and then slashed, it would be more powerful than usual random swings. Much bigger!

"Roar--"

A shrill scream came from Xu's mouth.

"Okay, it's over."

Xuan Hao said softly while looking at Xu Splash's torn body.

Of course, this Hollow will not die because of such a slash. The end he said is because Kurosaki Ichigo can only stop here.

At this moment, Kurosaki Ichigo had to rely on the support of his Zanpakutō even if he was standing, and he no longer had the strength to continue fighting.

And it is definitely impossible for this virtual creature to stay here after being hit so hard.

He could tell that this Hollow was different from other Hollows that had appeared in the world before. As for the specific differences... this Hollow was an Arrancar.

Although it is just a useless piece of garbage, it is impossible for the current Kurosaki Ichigo to kill this Arrancar with his own power from the beginning. It should be said that being able to fight like this is already the result of the protagonist's halo.

"Ichigo...won?"

Kuchiki Rukia asked.

"No."

Xuan Hao shook his head slightly and started to move.

"Whoosh——"

A sound broke through the air, and the dark afterimage struck at the head of the exhausted Kurosaki Ichigo, seeming to want a fatal blow.

This was a blow formed by the condensed remains of the Hollow that was split apart by Ichigo Kurosaki.

"Damn it!"

The wreckage merged with the intact puppet that fell to the ground and stood up again.

This Hollow is not dead, because it has two bodies, one is the body that was chopped to pieces by Kurosaki Ichigo just now, and the other is the puppet it uses to lure enemies.

Few people would focus on a decoy like a puppet, so generally no one would know that this is its true form.

Thanks to this method, even if one of the bodies is injured, it can escape in time with the other body.

"I didn't expect that these guys are not ordinary humans...it was a miscalculation."

Xu's eyes looked warily at the man who pulled Kurosaki Ichigo away from the path of his sudden advance, with a frown on his face that looked like Kurosaki Ichigo's mother.

Originally, it wanted to get rid of this god of death before evacuating, but now it seems that it has no choice.

"No, you have to get out of here quickly!"

Its method of preserving life has now been exposed in front of these guys. It will be dangerous to stay here any longer. It has to find a place to restore its strength first.

So it ran away.

Fortunately for it, these humans seemed to care more about their injured companions than it did, and no one caught up with them.

"wait wait wait……"

Kurosaki Ichigo looked at Xu who turned around and fled away, held Xuanhao's shoulders, stretched out his hand and shouted weakly.

"Save it, it's never too late for a gentleman to take revenge."

Xuan Hao sighed and gently let go of the hand holding the other party.

Sure enough, as soon as he let go, Kurosaki Ichigo fell directly to the ground with a plop.

"Hey! You guy! Do you treat the wounded like this?"

Kuchiki Rukia hurried forward.

"Kurosaki!" Inoue Orihime was also anxious and at a loss.

"I'm just trying to make him realize the reality. Don't worry, this kid is very tough and can't die."

As he spoke, Xuanhao turned his attention to the 'Shield Shun Rikka' surrounding Orihime Inoue, "Orihime, use your power."

"Ah? What should I do?" Orihime Inoue was at a loss.

"Leave it to us." Shunying and Iris patted their chests and promised, "Come on, Miss Orihime, give us the order."

As she spoke, she whispered in Inoue Orihime's ear.

"oh……"

Inoue Orihime nodded in understanding, then pointed her hand at the injured Kurosaki Ichigo,

"Shun Ying. Calamus. Shuangtian Guidun, I refuse!"

After the word spirit was liberated, an eggshell-shaped light enveloped Kurosaki Ichigo. Under the influence of Inoue Orihime's power, Kurosaki Ichigo's injuries were recovering at a speed visible to the naked eye.

"This is……"

Rukia Kuchiki looked at this unbelievable scene with surprised eyes.

She had never seen such power after being a god of death for so many years.

She couldn't help but look at Xuan Hao aside. There was no doubt that this man must know something.

However, Xuan Hao didn't seem to intend to answer her question.

"Hun, protect them. I have something to do and leave for a while."

With that said, he turned and left.

"Okay boss!"

Hun patted his chest and looked like he was wrapped around me.

Xuan Hao took a step, and then his entire figure disappeared in front of everyone.

"This is……"

Looking at the place where Xuan Hao disappeared, Kuchiki Rukia's pupils shrank sharply.

This time the man disappeared in a completely different way than before.

It was neither instant step nor relying on pure speed, but disappeared out of thin air as if it merged into space.

"Where...has he gone?"

"Ahhhhhhhh-"

A shrill scream came from the dark space.

This is a world located between Hueco Mundo and the real world, which is where Xu usually hides when he comes to the real world.

If Ichigo Kurosaki were here, he would probably immediately be able to hear the screams of the Hollow that he just chopped down. But it is a pity that under normal circumstances neither the God of Death nor humans can reach here.

But Xuanhao is an exception.
