A dimensional journey starting from the Dragon Clan

Chapter 637 630. Ichimaru Gin: I was born with this expression

clang--

The sound of swords clashing still sounded in the underground space.

Perhaps because he couldn't see the sun, Kurosaki Ichigo, who was training here, didn't know how much time had passed.

Only Yoruichi, who was patiently observing Kurosaki Ichigo's growth progress and counting the time, knew that the first day of training was almost over. To maintain the spiritual tool 'Zhenshin Body', her spiritual power was needed. Although she was also very I want to help Kurosaki Ichigo continue training, but his spiritual power cannot support such a battle for three days and three nights. It is indeed time to rest today.

As for the progress of training...

"There is still some progress..."

Yoruichi knelt down on one knee a little tired, watching Kurosaki Ichigo's battle. At this moment, she didn't count the number of broken Zanpakutos in Kurosaki Ichigo's hands, but at least this kid was using this one now. At least five minutes have passed since the sword fight. In previous fights, the sword would be chopped off by Zangetsu in two or three blows until only the handle was left.

It's reasonable to say that such progress can be made in one day, but it's still not enough... After all, her requirement for Kurosaki Ichigo is to master the 'Swastika' within three days, which is still not close to the 'Swastika'. Far away.

"But it seems we can only go here today... Huh..."

Yoruichi exhaled a breath, released the 'Transformation Body', wiped the sweat from his forehead and slowly stood up.

And when the 'Tenjin Body' suddenly turned back into a doll and fell to the ground, Kurosaki Ichigo, who was still fighting, suddenly jumped into the air and froze on the spot.

"What's going on? Miss Yoichi?" He turned around and asked in confusion.

I saw Yoruichi slowly untying his long, sweaty hair and walking over, "Put down the sword, Ichigo. Today's training ends here. Although time is tight, proper rest is necessary, otherwise If you are exhausted, even if you master the 'Swastika', you will not have the strength to participate in the next battle."

"oh……"

Kurosaki Ichigo stuck the broken Zanpakuto on the ground with some unfinished thoughts, and then headed down the mountain wall behind the training ground.

Yoruichi had introduced him to it when he came here. It was a hot spring with therapeutic effects, specially used for recovery after practicing.

"call--"

After taking off his clothes and soaking his whole body in the hot spring, Kurosaki Ichigo breathed a long sigh of relief.

"Today's training is over...does that mean the first day of practice has passed?"

After fighting for a day, he felt that almost all the muscles in his body were stiff, but he did not seem to have made any obvious progress. Although it could not be said that there was no progress at all, he knew his own situation best. The only thing that seemed to grow was fighting. Techniques, as for things like reiatsu, there is almost no change.

"If we continue like this, can we really reach the level of 'Swastika' in three days?"

"If you can't do it, then you will have to watch from the side when your companions go to save Rukia~"

A joking voice came from behind the mountain wall.

"Who wants to watch from the side!" Kurosaki Ichigo retorted angrily, "I will definitely achieve it to show you!"

"Hmph, that's what I want."

Yoruichi chuckled, "By the way, is the water temperature okay?"

"Um? It's okay, what's wrong?" Kurosaki Ichigo didn't react for a moment and answered subconsciously.

"Yeah, that's good."

From behind came the sound of people taking off their clothes, "Then I'll take a dip too."

"puff--"

Hearing this, Kurosaki Ichigo almost choked to death on his own saliva.

But when he saw the figure coming to him, he knew that he had been tricked again.

"Why are you so excited? You didn't think I would take a bath with you in a human form, did you? Are you a little disappointed? You sp."

Yoruichi, who was in the form of a black cat, smiled teasingly, "But it's not impossible if you beg me~"

"Who is lost! Be careful I drown you..."

Kurosaki Ichigo looked at the black cat in front of him, veins popping out on his forehead.

"Okay, let's recover our strength. After resting, we will continue to practice tomorrow."

Yoruichi revealed her head and leaned on the edge of the hot spring pool with her eyes closed, looking like she was enjoying herself.

The atmosphere became somewhat silent for a while.

Kurosaki Ichigo looked at the surrounding environment boredly. Only at this time did he have time to pay attention to these minutiae issues: "Speaking of which, Miss Yoruichi..."

"What's wrong?" Ye Yi opened a cat's eye slightly, feeling a little confused.

"I've been curious from the beginning. The environment here is similar to that of Urahara before. It's the 'training room' under the Urahara store." Kurosaki Ichigo expressed his doubts.

"Of course, because that place was built based on this one." Yoruichi answered matter-of-factly, "This is an underground space that Kisuke and I secretly dug deep underground in Shuangshou Hill in order to have a secret base when we were kids. .”

"Secretly... secretly dug out such a ridiculously big place?" Kurosaki Ichigo felt ashamed after hearing this.

"Haha, that guy Kisuke was very good at doing bad things secretly when he was a child." Yoruichi smiled with some nostalgia, "But these are all old things. We used to come here to play every day when we were young. He belongs to the Thirteen team, and I joined the stealth maneuver team, and we would always come here to compete when we were free and bored. Later..."

"!?" The more Ichigo Kurosaki listened, the more he felt something was wrong, "Wait! Miss Yoruichi, Team 13? Team 13 of the Gotei!? That clog hat is really a Shinigami, right!?"

"Of course, I thought you should have noticed it a long time ago." Yoruichi answered matter-of-factly.

"Of course I noticed it..." Ichigo Kurosaki was speechless, "That guy not only has a Zanpakutō, but he also knows so much about Soul Society. Even the guy who fought me before changed his face when he heard his name. But...since he is the God of Death, why would he go to the real world and open such an inexplicable store now? What on earth is that guy..."

"About these...the reasons are very complicated." Yoruichi sighed helplessly, "But I can tell you about that guy's identity..."

"He is..." Kurosaki Ichigo swallowed. Such a powerful guy should be a captain-level figure, right?

"That's right, it's pretty much what you thought." Yoruichi stared at the boy in front of him, seeming to understand his thoughts completely, "That guy is...the captain of the 12th Division of the Gotei 13th Team of the previous generation, and... The founder-level first director of the Technology Development Bureau.”

······

Under the moonlight, in front of the Third Division team building, a somewhat short figure stood in the open space with arms folded, as if waiting for something.

Da da--

Soon, footsteps came from the distant corridor.

Two figures walked over calmly.

"Are you two really staying together?"

Hitsugaya Toshiro frowned as he looked at the two people coming towards the team building. The people who came were none other than the owner of the place, Captain Ichimaru Gin of the Third Division, and Kira Izuru, who had just been brought out of prison by him.

"It seems that my guess was indeed correct. Before I came here, I went to the cell where the three of them were held. Only Kira's cell was opened from the outside... If he was escaping, wouldn't it be too conspicuous? Ichimaru." Hitsugaya Toshiro looked at Ichimaru Gin who stopped walking with an unkind look, as if waiting for the other party to give a reasonable explanation.

"Oh, what you said is so strange..." Ichimaru Gin squinted his eyes slightly and laughed, "So what if it's conspicuous? I actually did this on purpose."

"So, are you admitting that you have a problem?"

Hearing this, Hitsugaya Toshiro stretched out his hand to slowly touch the Zanpakutō behind him. He had previously suspected that the guy in front of him was the real murderer behind the scenes, but now this guy seems to be too lazy to even act, and actually dares to blatantly disobey Seirei. court rules.

"Fortunately, I arrived one step earlier than Hinamori... I will kill you first before she comes."

With that said, Hitsugaya Toshiro was about to draw his sword, but a shadow suddenly fell between him and Ichimaru Gin.

"Hinsen..."

Looking at the figure that suddenly appeared in front of him, Hitsugaya Toshiro felt a little anxious. His movements seemed to be slow. He didn't expect Hinamori to come here so quickly.

"I finally found you..."

Hinamori Momo slowly pulled out the Zanpakutō from her waist, "So you are here..."

Seeing this, Hitsugaya Toshiro became even more anxious, and took a step forward to stop Hinamori Momo's movement, "Don't go there! Hinamori! You are no match for him! Stand back and let me..."

bass--

The Zanpakutō sliced ​​through the air, and the buzzing sound stopped in Hitsugaya Toshiro's ears.

Looking at the blade resting on his neck, he was immediately speechless.

"Hina...Mori...you...why?"

"Because...you are the murderer of Captain Aizen..."

There were tears in the corners of Hinamori Tao's eyes, and the hand holding the knife was trembling.

It was hard for her to believe that what she saw in front of her was the truth, but that was what was written in the letter left by Captain Aizen!

‘I’m afraid I won’t be able to come back, so I wrote the truth here.

Regarding the trial of Rukia Kuchiki, someone is behind the scenes...

His purpose was not to execute Rukia Kuchiki per se, but to seize something. This thing is—double death.

The seal is only released during execution. The tip of the spear has the same destructive power as millions of Zanpakutō, and the execution frame also has the same defensive power. Moreover, during the execution, in order to cut and penetrate the body of the God of Death, the destructive power will expand dozens of times in an instant.

The person who wants to execute someone is trying to use this destructive power to destroy the entire Seireitei. The name of that terrifying guy is - Hitsugaya Toshiro. ’

"Aizen...is that what he wrote?"

Listening to what Hinamori described in front of him, Hitsugaya Toshiro asked in disbelief.

"That's right... He also wrote on the back... 'Tonight I will call him to the Great Holy Wall. No matter what, I must stop him. If he still insists on his own way, I have a plan to fight him to the death. Awakening. If I die... Hinamori, please adhere to my will, avenge me, and stop him! This is my last request, not in the name of the captain of the fifth division, but as a person... Please...this is...something only you can do...'" Hinamori Momo's tears kept pouring out of her eyes, and she felt that the knife was still on the neck of the person in front of her.

"absurd!"

Hitsugaya Toshiro roared after hearing what Hinamori said, "The contents of this letter are simply full of loopholes!"

How could anyone be so stupid?

After death, let a girl who is weaker than yourself complete such a dangerous task! ?

If you really discover this horrible attempt, shouldn't you report it to the captain and let him make a decision? ?

What's more, 'This is something only you can do...' Tsk, this is obviously a trap for Hinamori and himself! Almost instantly, Hitsugaya Toshiro saw through the essence of this letter.

But it didn't make any sense, because the silly girl in front of her had lost her ability to think.

"Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah!"

As if wanting to give herself courage, Hinamori Momo roared and raised her Zanpakuto and slashed at the boy in front of her.

boom--

The Zanpakutō fell to the ground and immediately split the floor.

But Hitsugaya Toshiro could only retreat and avoid.

He frowned and looked at the woman in front of him, with a hint of anxiety in his tone, "You idiot, Hinamori! Think about it carefully! 'If I die, take revenge for me'? Such words are what you know as Lan Will Aizen stay!? The Aizen we know, even if he is really stupid enough to fight such an uncertain battle, there is no way he would leave such a dangerous mission for his subordinates to deal with the aftermath. Coward!"

"But..." Hinamori Momo seemed to have lost her mind and rushed towards Hitsugaya Toshiro again, waving the Zanpakutō again, "He obviously wrote this! I can't be wrong. Yes! That is indeed Captain Aizen’s handwriting! I don’t want to believe this fact, but that’s what Captain Aizen said!”

"..."

Hitsugaya Toshiro silently avoided him again.

Am I such an untrustworthy existence in your heart?

He couldn't ask such a question to the person in front of him, because it would make no sense at all.

His relationship with Hinamori was childhood sweethearts, or just childhood sweethearts, at least to this girl.

Everything is just wishful thinking. It is impossible to shake the 'last wish' left by the person whom Hinamori trusts the most in this capacity.

"I...Captain Aizen...me! I...I don't know what to do anymore...Tōshiro..."

Hinamori Momo seemed to be trapped in some extremely tangled predicament, her eyes full of despair.

Looking at the tearful girl in front of him, the look on Hitsugaya Toshiro's face became extremely cold.

So that’s the case, is it still going to be confusing?

that's enough.

bass--

The sound of a knife sounded suddenly.

"I will never let go of the person who made you suffer so much... But before that, calm down... Hinamori." Hitsugaya Toshiro held the handle of the knife behind his back tightly, and the long knife seemed to have never been released. Sheath, the sound is as heart-breaking as ice.

Hinamori Momo's originally desperate eyes suddenly seemed to be relieved for some reason, and she slowly fell down.

She was very torn, because on one side was the captain she admired most, and on the other side was the childhood sweetheart she watched grow up. No matter which side she chose, she would be extremely sad in the end, so she hesitated every time she was stabbed, but now it seems that she no longer has to Let’s continue thinking about this troublesome issue.

Because she failed, if she failed due to lack of ability, she should be forgiven, right? After all, Captain Aizen is such a gentle person...

She knew she was escaping, but what could she do?

So cold...

The surrounding atmosphere became cold.

Hitsugaya Toshiro did not look back to check the injuries on the girl who fell to the ground because he had already avoided the vital point.

There was only one person in his eyes at the moment.

The slightly narrowed eyes and the weird smile that always hung on that fox-like face looked more like sarcasm to him at the moment.

(Ichimaru Gin:? I was born with this expression. Did it offend you?)

"Is this all your fault? Ichimaru!" Hitsugaya Toshiro's eyes were filled with anger.

"Oh my god, you are so cruel, Captain of the 10th Division."

Faced with the question of the boy in front of him, Ichimaru Gin said in a joking tone, "When facing a girl who has lost her mind due to pain, you don't need to be so harsh, right? You're lucky enough to do it~"

"Losing your mind?"

Hitsugaya Toshiro's tone was extremely cold, "If this was really the case, she should have wiped my neck directly from the beginning instead of slashing with such violent movements... This look was simply begging me to kill her. Got her."

"Oh? So there is such an understanding?" Ichimaru Gin chuckled, "It's really sad."

"Yeah, I'm very sad and angry now." The veins in Hitsugaya's hand holding the handle of the knife bulged.

"Ugh... I don't quite understand what you want to say." Ichimaru Gin remained unmoved, "Could it be that Captain of the 10th Division... do you want to take your anger out on me?"

"Do you still want to continue pretending?"

Hitsugaya Toshiro's posture was low, and he was ready to attack, "I have warned you...if anything happens to Hinamori, I will kill you!"

Click——

Hitsugaya Toshiro suddenly raised his long sword, and the scabbard wrapping the blade behind him was instantly broken by the extreme violence.

As the Zanpakutō was unsheathed, the cold spiritual pressure soaring into the sky caused the surrounding temperature to drop suddenly.

"Oh..."

Watching the young man in front of him draw his sword, Ichimaru Gin calmly stretched out his hand to touch the hilt of the sword at his waist, "This is not okay...Captain of the 10th Division. If you do this, I will have no choice but to resist."

"Wait...wait...Captain Ichimaru..."

Kira Izuru looked at the two captains who were at war with each other and was a little at a loss.

"Stay back, Izuru."

Ichimaru Gin chuckled and turned his head, "You should... don't want to die yet, right?"

"Don't be stupid, is it enough to just step back?"

Hitsugaya Toshiro suppressed his anger and slowly raised the Zanpakutō in his hand, "Disappear, Kira. It's best to be far enough away that you can't see me. If it's not far enough... I can't guarantee that you won't be killed because of it." Get involved and die.”
