Bleach: No cheat codes, he joined Aizen's side.

In fact, it wasn't just Jushiro Ukitake who sensed something unusual about Kisuke Urahara. Shuichi Higashino, who had been watching Kisuke Urahara for so long and knew best what Kisuke Urahara should have been like, was also quite shocked.

Can one possess this level of spiritual pressure merely through initial release?

The Spirit King's will cannot interfere to this extent.

In Higashino Shuichi's understanding, the Soul King's will can at most influence others on a spiritual level, or make slight modifications to the rules of things that originally belonged to him.

However, it is still impossible for the Spirit King's will, with its mere willpower, to directly influence the real power of things that still exist in reality.

Otherwise, the Spirit King would be a truly omnipotent god, instead of being helpless against a hell.

Therefore, this must be some other method that Kisuke Urahara developed under his own butterfly effect.

But that's enough to make it feel terrifying.

Kisuke Urahara and Sosuke Aizen truly lived up to their reputation as ordinary Shinigami, able to rival gods solely through their intellect.

Higashino Shuichi stretched out his hand, changed from palm to fist, grasped, and formed a barrier.

At that moment, the entire interior of the barrier seemed to be illuminated by endless spiritual particles.

Those were one after another, a dense array of sacred arrows of destruction.

They fell one after another onto the curtain of water, one being canceled out, and a new one immediately formed, without end or pause.

This is something that even Yhwach at his peak couldn't achieve.

Because the original Yhwach was still exhausted.

But the current Shuichi Higashino won't have that.

That Ginjo Kūgo, did he think he could block my attack with that towering curtain of water?

Although Fullbring is powerful, it still requires someone to release it. Shinigami can survive without eating, simply by absorbing the surrounding spiritual particles, but Ginjou Kugo and Tsukishima Shukuro cannot.

They are human beings.

As long as one is human, there will be a physical limitation.

Originally, Kūgo Ginjō might have had a sliver of hope: before the entire Sanctuary's Spirit Particle Barrier was fully formed, he could have used Johnther's Fullbring to banish Tsukishima Shūkyūrō and the others from this space.

This is something that is easy to do for a power like Fullbring, which is completely unreasonable and ignores the rules.

However, once the entire barrier is closed, within this sacred realm of praise, everything must be done in accordance with Higashino Shuichi's will.

It wasn't because the Fullbring technique in Ginjo Kugo's hands was no longer effective, but because Ginjo Kugo, as a human, was simply not qualified.

If he had the same physical abilities as Shuichi Higashino, or even just half of them, he could easily use the Fullbring technique to escape.

Unfortunately, Ginjo Kugo didn't have that.

Therefore, in Higashino Shuichi's view, Ginjo Kūgo's fate was predetermined, and he didn't even need to specifically target Ginjo Kūgo.

The moment the water curtain disappeared was the moment when Silver City Sougo perished.

His actions vividly illustrated what it means to be trapped by one's own actions.

Therefore, at this moment, Higashino Shuichi only has one enemy to face.

"Yan Hui!"

Higashino Shuichi sliced ​​through space with a single slash and disappeared.

When one's strength reaches a level like his, whether it's the Slash of the Moon, the Moon-Picking Technique, or the Moon-Splitting Technique, they are all essentially the same.

It's simply a matter of finding the enemy's weakness and delivering a fatal blow.

That's exactly what Unohana Yachiru, who once boasted that she had mastered all the sword styles in the world, did.

In the end, she no longer had her own set of moves; her every move was completely spontaneous.

And Higashino Shuichi, who is a disciple of Unohana Retsu, is doing the same thing now.

Yan Fan and the like were just names he came up with on the spot.

What it's called doesn't matter; what matters is being able to hit the enemy!
However, Higashino Shuichi's sharp strike only landed on Urahara Kisuke's Zanpakuto.

Wherever Higashino Shuichi's blade went, it was entirely in line with the direction of Urahara Kisuke's blade.

When did Kisuke Urahara acquire such slashing skills?

Higashikata was shocked.

Only he himself knew that he was no longer holding back against Kisuke Urahara. All his attacks, though no longer aimed at killing Urahara like before, were still intended to cripple him first.

Even so, Kisuke Urahara still managed to keep up with his own pace perfectly.

Is this normal?

This is very abnormal!
Kisuke Urahara isn't an all-around genius like Sosuke Aizen.

He simply focused a lot of his skill points on scientific research.

Even his Bankai was obtained through cheat-like techniques, unlike other Shinigami who relied on their own strength to first materialize their Zanpakuto, then defeat their Zanpakuto, and gain its recognition.

To say that Kisuke Urahara possesses swordsmanship comparable to that of Shuichi Higashino in his current form would be something Higashino would absolutely refuse to believe.

Something must be wrong!
During his brief encounter with Kisuke Urahara, Shuichi Higashino considered using his Shinigami abilities several times, but he refrained from doing so.

Admittedly, if he were to unleash his Zanpakuto, Higashino Shuichi would be confident that he could quickly defeat Urahara Kisuke. However, doing so would expose his true identity, which could have some adverse effects on his ability to apprehend Urahara Kisuke after the battle.

Therefore, Higashino Shuichi does not want to do that unless absolutely necessary.

"So."

After Urahara Kisuke easily blocked yet another slash, Higashino Shuichi's expression hardened, and he then pointed his left hand at Urahara Kisuke.
"Sheath your sword!"

Just like what Higashino Shuichi did to Yoruichi Shihouin before, Higashino Shuichi wanted to repeat it on Kisuke Urahara.

Although doing so would indeed make one seem somewhat shameless and imply an admission that one is no match for the opponent.

However, Higashino Shuichi is not the kind of person who would fuss over such things.

Since his original idea of ​​defeating Urahara Kisuke with his sword technique had failed, it was only logical for Higashino Shuichi to immediately seek other ways to win.

What Higashino Shuichi didn't expect was that the methods he had previously tested on Yoruichi Shihouin were ineffective against Kisuke Urahara. Urahara was still able to launch a powerful counterattack using his Zanpakuto.

"No, it's not that my sealing technique against Urahara Kisuke has failed, but rather!"

After dodging Kisuke Urahara's circular slash, Shuichi Higashino turned his head to look at his own rear.

Sure enough, there, at some unknown time, a "peaceful" area had been artificially created. Ukitake Jushiro, covered in wounds and bleeding profusely, knelt on the ground, while Shihouin Yoruichi knelt beside him to heal his wounds. In one of Shihouin Yoruichi's hands was the very same divine weapon, the Eight Mirrors Sword, which had been separated from him by Higashino Shuichi earlier.

And there, besides Yoruichi Shihouin and Jushiro Ukitake, there was also a guy who had just been temporarily released by Shuichi Higashino to make up the numbers, the spirit residing in the body of the first captain, Saito, whose soul was immortal.

And Kyoraku Shunsui, who was also previously exiled by Higashino Shuichi!

However, unlike Ukitake Jushiro, Shihouin Yoruichi, and Saito, who are immortal and reside outside that small world, the peaceful area created by the soul of another host, the first captain, at the cost of his life, is different.

Kyoraku Shunsui deliberately exposed himself to Higashino Shuichi's sacred praise, allowing the endless holy arrows to attack him.

"Phew, it was you who, the moment I pulled you over, instantly grasped the situation and then used special methods to communicate this plan to them."

Higashino Shuichi took a step back, widening the distance between himself and Urahara Kisuke.

The reason he wasn't worried about Yoruichi Shihouin and Jushiro Ukitake's little tricks was that, without spatial abilities, even if Yoruichi Shihouin escaped this small world, she would only get lost in the vast shadow world outside.

But with the help of the original captain, things would be different.

Higashino Shuichi remembered that the original captain's spirit body, who was now providing off-field assistance to Yoruichi Shihouin and the others outside this small world, was none other than the original captain of the 10th Division, Wang Tuchuan Yuxu.

Long ago, Higashino Shuichi confirmed through Saizo Goku that Wang Tuchuan Yuxu, the first captain of the 10th Division, possessed the ability to explore the Dangai on his own, which indirectly confirmed that Wang Tuchuan Yuxu had the ability to contact or even enter other dimensions.

In fact, it was precisely because Higashino Shuichi knew this that he thought of releasing the combination of Wang Tuchuan Yuxu and Saito Immortal and guiding them to come here, thus creating the illusion that they came here on their own.

Higashino Shuichi never expected that his actions would actually benefit Urahara Kisuke.

Now, Yoruichi Shihouin possesses the sacred weapon, the Eight Mirrors Sword, while Saito, who is immortal, is eyeing her covetously. Kyoraku Shunsui has been silently enduring her attacks and is now covered in wounds, making it the perfect time for him to use his Bankai on her. In addition, Urahara Kisuke is also watching her covetously from the side.

Even though Jushiro Ukitake seemed to be useless and ineffective, this lineup still required even Shuichi Higashino to be on high alert, otherwise he might accidentally reveal his true identity.

If this identity were revealed in Soul Society, it wouldn't matter. After all, Shuichi Higashino has friends all over the world, and since he no longer intends to kill Kisuke Urahara, revealing his identity might even be an advantage.

But this is not in Soul Society.

Based on the people present, Higashino Shuichi knew that even if he revealed his original identity, whether from Urahara Kisuke's perspective or from the perspective of Yoruichi Shihouin and Kyoraku Shunsui, they would still remain true to their original intentions and continue to attack him.

After all, even Higashino Shuichi himself should be in the deepest hell right now, not here.

The fact that Higashino Shuichi appeared here was already a challenge to the authority of Soul Society.

As the rulers and administrators of Soul Society, Yoruichi Shihouin and the others absolutely could not allow Shuichi Higashino to appear outside of the Abyss like this.

Even Yoruichi Shihouin and Shunsui Kyoraku had different relationships with Shuichi Higashino in the past.

But neither of these two people are the type to easily change their principles because of personal feelings.

"Shukuro Tsukishima, oh, that guy with the book in his hand, was right, Yhwach, you're out of touch with the times~"

After Higashino Shuichi retreated, Kisuke Urahara did not immediately pursue him. His composure throughout was Urahara's trademark and his consistent style of doing things.

"Hehehehe. Hahahaha!!"

Higashino Shuichi burst into wild laughter amidst the howling holy arrows.

"Only because I exist can this era exist!"

After speaking, Higashino Hideichi pointed the Asauchi sword at Kyoraku Shunsui below, and spiritual power and spiritual particles frantically gathered at the tip of the sword at that moment.

"Usurpation of the altar!"

As Higashino Shuichi let out a low growl, countless spirit particles transformed into spirit bullets, falling around Kyoraku Shunsui like a meteor shower.

At first, Kyoraku Shunsui tried to put on a show of resistance.

He could sense that his body could hold on a little longer, but if he wanted to fight a formidable opponent like Yhwach, he would need to push himself to his limits even further.

However, Kyoraku Shunsui was surprised to find that the spirit bullets released by Yhwach this time seemed to be aimed at him, but also seemed not to be him.

Kyoraku Shunsui had never seen an attack with such a skewed aim before. With such a huge number of spirit bullets, not a single one hit him!
This is not right!

Kyoraku Shunsui realized this as these spirit bullets fell.

But it was too late. He tried to rush into the safe zone where Yoruichi and the others were, but found that he couldn't get out at all. The spirit bullets that had gone astray actually formed one five-pointed star array after another around him.

When these five-pointed star arrays were fully formed, Kyoraku Shunsui felt as if a part of his Zanpakuto had been forcibly taken away from him in an instant.

No, without even feeling it, Kyoraku Shunsui could even see a stream of light flying out from his Zanpakuto, traveling upwards through the continuous five-star array to Yhwach in the sky.

That's the Bankai of his Zanpakuto!
In the original storyline, Yhwach's usurpation of the altar did not involve a transmission process.

The process of usurpation consists of two steps: formation and seizure.

This is a scene that Higashino Shuichi forcibly added to the ability to usurp the altar.

There is only one purpose.

Kisuke Urahara has made his move.
Given the distance between him and Kyoraku Shunsui, coupled with the countless Sacred Arrows blocking their way, Urahara Kisuke had only one option left.

That is to draw the sword.

With powerful slashes, shatter all the demons and monsters blocking the way.

This would be impossible for the original storyline, or for the Kisuke Urahara that Shuichi Higashino once knew.

But for Kisuke Urahara now, it's a piece of cake.

However, it was precisely this strike that allowed Higashino Shuichi to seize upon the momentary opening in Urahara Kisuke's body.

"Powerful swordsmanship skills are an advantage, but they can also become your disadvantage!"

Higashino Shuichi's body disappeared from the spot.

When Higashino Shuichi reappeared, he was already back in front of Urahara Kisuke.

His asana-style strike landed solidly on Urahara Kisuke's shoulder blade. (End of Chapter)
