A dimensional journey starting from the Dragon Clan

Chapter 861 854. Ice and Ash

"team leader!"

Soon, Matsumoto Rangiku's shouts came from below.

"The soldiers have evacuated! I'm here to help you!"

"Um……"

Hearing this, Hitsugaya Toshiro nodded uncharacteristically, "Sorry, please. It's really difficult for me to deal with such a guy alone."

"Hmm~"

Hearing this, Matsumoto Rangiku turned his head curiously and looked at Hitsugaya Toshiro's expression at this moment.

"What's wrong?" Being looked at with such strange eyes, Hitsugaya Toshiro felt ashamed.

"Nothing~"

Rangiku Matsumoto smiled and joked, "Oh, I just thought... it seems that having the swastika taken away isn't all a bad thing~ A captain who can honestly ask people for help is quite cute~"

"Varied……"

Hitsugaya Toshiro blushed when he heard this, "Matsumoto!"

"Okay, okay! Come on!"

Matsumoto Rangiku stopped joking, the look on her face became serious, she drew her sword and entered the fighting state, "Bass it - Gray Cat!"

As she spoke, the blade in her hand suddenly turned into fine mist-like gravel, immediately surrounding the two of them.

"It's about to begin! Thousand-feuille battle!" Matsumoto Rangiku shouted excitedly.

"I don't remember ever having a name like this..."

Hitsugaya Toshiro was speechless for a while.

However, facing such a powerful enemy in front of them, the two of them must cooperate in the next step.

The zanpakuto compatibility between the two of them is actually very good, but it just doesn't show up when they have their swastika on weekdays. But now when Hitsugaya Toshiro has lost his swastika, he is facing an enemy who uses fire, and Matsumoto Rangiku The existence of can be said to completely fill the gap.

The fine gray mist-like gravel and the water vapor in the air quickly merged and became as muddy as cement. Coupled with the power of Hitsugaya Toshiro Hyōrinmaru, it immediately condensed into ice.

"What are you doing?"

Looking at such a scene, Buzby on the opposite side seemed not to see anything wrong at all, and was still full of disdain, "In the final analysis, it's just an ice wall! What's the difference between this and just now!? Give it to me - melt it !”

As he spoke, he waved his hand violently, and the flames once again swept towards the ice wall condensed in front of the two of them.

puff--

The sound of burning sounded extremely harsh, but this time the ice wall failed to melt away as he imagined.

"Can't melt? No...it just melted the surface...what's going on?"

Soon, Buzby discovered the strangeness of the ice wall that the two of them had used together, and felt confused.

"Vacuum multi-layered ice wall."

Hitsugaya Toshiro explained calmly, "The surface of the multi-layer wall made of gray cat's ash is covered with a thin ice wall. Gray cat's ash is a non-combustible medium, and my ice is used to fix the shape. , will be enough to withstand your flames.

My Hyōrinmaru is probably the one with the smallest ability gap between Hakkake and Swastika among the captain-level Zanpakutō.

It's just that...the amount of ice produced has decreased.

To compensate for this, I constantly practiced fighting with small amounts of ice.

Now it seems that if it is just used to resist your flames, this level of ice plus the ashes of the gray cat is just right. "

"Damn you brat! Stop being so arrogant!"

Seeing Hitsugaya Toshiro's calm look, Buzby had a look of anger on his face.

He waved his hand violently again, and flames more intense than ever before were enveloped in the direction of Hitsugaya Toshiro.

Wow——

However, the melting he expected still did not happen again.

The ice wall blessed by the gray cat's ash protected Hitsugaya Toshiro. The condensed multi-layered ice wall showed no signs of collapse no matter how it was burned with flames. It even seemed to dry up due to the burning of the flames. Hardened.

"Didn't I say it? Don't let your flames go any further."

Hitsugaya Toshiro said calmly.

At the same time, he raised the Hyōrin Pill in his hand.

A faint chill slowly condensed towards the blade.

Yes, as a result of hard training, he can still attack and defend at the same time even when he can only control a very small amount of ice.

"Pierce him... Hyōrinmaru."

"Follow! Gray Cat!"

While Hitsugaya Toshiro ordered, Matsumoto Rangiku cooperated tacitly.

The ice and ashes merged into one and stretched forward, like a sharp blade that instantly extended in front of Buzby.

boom--

A deafening roar resounded.

Buzby, who was hit by the vacuum icicle, was pinned to the building behind him under the terrifying piercing force. It seemed that he could no longer struggle at all.

"Down with him!"

Seeing such a scene, the team members watching the battle from a distance became excited.

When they faced this group of Quincy before, they suffered a disastrous defeat without any argument! That was when all the captains were in control of the swastika.

At this moment, the captain Toshiro Hitsugaya, who lost his swastika, cooperated with the deputy captain Rangiku Matsumoto to easily defeat the enemy. This is particularly important for the morale of the Shinigami side.

"We can still continue fighting! Even without the swastika, we can still defeat the Quincy!"

The cheers were endless.

But soon the atmosphere was broken again.

"Hey, hey, hey - you are so happy...is it really okay?"

Buzby, who was nailed to the wall, asked with a gloomy face, "I haven't even finished my warm-up yet. Who made you think you have won?"

As he spoke, the blazing flames seemed to be burning up his whole body, and the frost covering his body along the icicles was melted away almost in an instant.

The battle... has just begun.

············

However, it seems that not every battle is as intense as the confrontation between ice and fire.

For example, the battle in the Technology Development Bureau is over before it even begins.

Yaskin Nacroval just looked at the Nirvana in front of him and gave up fighting with it.

"Ah... no!"

He held his forehead and complained to Nie Yuli, "You are really taking too much time! No more fighting! No more fighting!"

"Too time consuming?"

When Nie Yuli heard this, he was originally expecting what kind of methods the other party would use to deal with him, but at this moment, the expression on his face suddenly fell, "What do you mean by this?"

"What I mean is that there are too many methods that need to be tried to put you to death." Yaskin Nacrovar replied calmly.

His holy text is ‘D’, which means DeathDealing, and its symbolic ability is [Lethal Dose].

This is an ability that cannot be activated directly.

There is a need to manipulate the amount of substances (nutrients) ingested by an organism that are required to be lethal. By deliberately creating a helpless posture to close the distance with the opponent and bring it into the effective range of the lethal dose, inducing the opponent to hurt himself as a medium to trigger the designated substance, and accurately reflecting the complete lethality in the mind according to the different physiques of each opponent. The amount of the specified substance can be adjusted up and down arbitrarily to the 50% lethal dose, destroying half of the opponent's cell activity and physiological functions, making the opponent so painful that it is difficult to move, and then slowly killing it.

All in all, it is a very troublesome ability, and if used improperly, it may even affect oneself.

Crazy scientists like Nirvana are simply the most difficult enemy type for him to deal with, but... this does not actually prevent him from being confident in himself.

"I... am not good at doing those delicate and fatal tasks. It's best to do it all at once!" Yaskin Nacroval spread his hands and turned to leave. "Troublesome guys like you should fight with others. Come on. I'm leaving."

With that said, he really stepped away.

"..."

After a moment, he turned his head with some confusion and asked Nie Yuli strangely: "Aren't you going to chase me?

"Not interested in."

Who would have thought that Niryuri would have the same expression as him of not being too lazy to waste time, "You can go wherever you want. If I want to deal with you, I need some time to analyze your spiritual pressure.

Or... are you just trying to make me relax my vigilance and step into your territory by putting on this appearance? "

As he said that, Nie Yuli smiled, his eyes full of ridicule, "It's really poor acting~"

"Ah...what a terrible intuition..."

Yaskin Nacroval chuckled.

············

boom--

Under the bursting flames, the icicles mixed with ash were instantly shattered.

Buzby sneered and appeared in front of the solemn-looking Toshiro Hitsugaya and Rangiku Matsumoto, looking like a completely fine person.

"No...impossible...didn't you...have been penetrated by Captain Hitsugaya?" The team members who originally thought they had won and cheered looked at the enemy in front of them in horror, and fell into panic again.

"Penetration? Ah, you're talking about this..."

Buzby looked at the holes in his body with a smile, and then tore off his cloak without caring, complaining, "The only thing that was pierced was my cloak. Really, the only good piece of clothing I have is It’s all in tatters because of you guys.”

As he spoke, blue lines of spiritual power loomed on the surface of his body exposed after he tore off his cloak.

This is the Quincy's ability to focus on defense, static blood equipment.

This terrifying defense actually allowed him to remain unscathed in a defenseless manner under the joint attack of a captain and vice-captain.

"Surprised? This is the absolute difference in strength!"

Seeing the surprised expressions on the faces of the Shinigami including Toshiro Hitsugaya, Buzby smiled mockingly.

“Let me tell you something.

In the previous battle, the members of the Knights of the Star Cross who were burned with flames by your captain... are all alive, including me of course.

That's because I used my flame... to offset your captain's flame! "

"!!!"

Hearing this, Hitsugaya Toshiro and Matsumoto Rangiku's expressions became extremely ugly.

Although Captain Yamamoto lost to Yhwach in the last battle, there is still no doubt about his strength.

No captain in Soul Society would be confident enough to say something that could offset Captain Yamamoto's flames.

If the Quincy in front of him can really do such a thing, then... there does seem to be an extremely terrifying strength gap between them.

"Okay, it's time to end this."

Buzby seemed to be tired of spending time with Toshiro Hitsugaya, who had lost his swastika. "It's a pity that you don't have swastika now. If you had it, your ice... could probably freeze me." One finger.”

As he spoke, he gently raised his hand and hooked his fingers, provoking the two people in front of him.

"snort."

Hitsugaya Toshiro snorted and looked at Team Matsumoto Rangiku on the side.

The two of them swung their swords together again in tacit agreement.

Ash and ice mixed together, extending from the ground and sweeping towards Buzby.

"boom--"

However, what surprised them was... Buzby just stood still. Just before their multi-layered vacuum ice wall was about to cover him, all the ice formed in front of Buzby like a sphere. Stop before the transparent realm.

Yes, there was indeed something burning around Buzby at this moment, and that was spiritual pressure.

Like Captain Yamamoto, his flame is actually just a manifestation of spiritual pressure. Although it is not as terrifying as Captain Yamamoto, it is still extremely hot.

boom--

The ice wall, which was a fusion of ice and ash, was instantly shattered by the unprecedented horrific fire blast.

Buzby looked at the two people in front of him with a sneer: "Do you understand now? You are no match for me at all!"

"Retreat first! Matsumoto!"

Hitsugaya Toshiro suddenly felt something was wrong.

The enemy in front of them seemed more powerful than they imagined.

"Re-adjust the response strategy, I will use the Aya Formation Ice Wall to hold him back!"

"good!"

Matsumoto Rangiku also realized that something was wrong and decisively retreated with his captain.

A layer of fine ice wall condensed around the two of them, gradually enveloping them.

"Huh, because the amount of ice that can be controlled is very small, do you just use fine ice to weave the ice wall?" Buzby immediately understood what the other party wanted to do when he saw this scene, and said lightly sarcastically, "Your little skills are not good enough. There are so many! But, unfortunately, with your ice, no matter what you do...it's only enough to freeze one of my fingers."

As he spoke, Buzby calmly raised his hand and stretched out a finger.

"Burning Fingers·1!"

In an instant, the scorching heat of jealousy was concentrated on his outstretched fingers.

The next moment, the small burning pillar of fire penetrated Hitsugaya Toshiro and the ice wall with astonishing power and speed.

"team leader!"

Seeing this scene, Matsumoto Rangiku roared anxiously.

The temperature emitted by that terrifying pillar of fire makes people feel desperate. Being penetrated by such a pillar of fire...

"cough--"

Fortunately, Hitsugaya Toshiro's vitality is still strong, and such an injury is not fatal to him.

After coughing lightly and spitting out a mouthful of blood, he did not hesitate to pull Matsumoto Rangiku, who was still in a daze due to worry, and ran away madly in the distance.

"Hey hey hey! You are the captain, right!? How can the captain escape!?"

The smile on Buzby's face became even more arrogant when he saw this scene.

He extended his finger again without mercy, ready to pursue.

"I told you, you are no match for me! Is it too late to know now!?"
