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

This is the world of Higashino Shuichi's memories, and also the memory of Higashino Shuichi that Tsukishima Hidekuro had previously modified.

This should have been a very vague concept, but with the Bankai ability of Higashino Shuichi's own Zanpakuto, he was forced back to this fictional world from his own memories.

What are you talking about?

How did you know my name?

Hidekuro Tsukishima feigned confusion, his right hand, still holding the umbrella, trying to maintain his innocent image.

"Pretending is useless. This is my world of memories. No matter how many tricks you have up your sleeve, I can't hide."
It's still its owner, isn't it?

Higashino Shuichi smiled and took a step back, freeing himself from the protective range of Tsukishima Shukuro's umbrella.

The heavy rain outside poured down again onto Higashino Shuichi's already soaked clothes.

However, Higashino Shuichi simply raised his right arm and snapped his fingers in the air, and the heavy rain in the sky instantly disappeared, and the noisy crowd around him vanished at that moment.

At the same time, the clothes on Higashino Shuichi's body became dry and comfortable again.

Hidekuro Tsukishima narrowed his eyes, tossed the umbrella aside, and it vanished before it even hit the ground.
"Looks like you found out."
You're the first one in all these years!

Hidekuro Tsukishima didn't show any panicked expression as if he had been caught red-handed doing something wrong; he remained calm and composed.

"That's natural. No matter how perfectly others construct their memories, it's useless because you're not me, and there will always be flaws."

As Higashino Shuichi spoke, the world around them gradually collapsed until only the small area where Higashino Shuichi and Tsukishima Shukuro stood remained.

"It seems you believe that the rules of the outside world still apply here in this so-called world of memories."

You think you can take me down with just this small place, right?

Hidekuro Tsukishima glanced at the dark space around him and calmly continued speaking.

But Higashino Shuichi simply shook his head.
"You've seen quite a bit of my memories, so you should know that I'm not a fool. I'm certainly aware of the difference between the world of reality and the world of memories."

Moreover, the fact that you were able to invade my memory world and tamper with my memories demonstrates that you also have a certain degree of authority to modify my memories.

"I suppose this must be your Fullbring ability?"

Hidekuro Tsukishima shrugged and replied nonchalantly.
"You found out! I thought you'd be easy to fool like everyone else~"
The result is not.

But it doesn't matter. I saw a lot of interesting things on this trip, and I bet Urahara Kisuke will be interested in them when I get back!

Instead of backing down, Tsukishima Hidekuro went even further, threatening Higashino Shuichi.

However, his threat was immediately seen through by Hideichi Higashino.
"Him? He would certainly be very interested, but that's precisely why you're holding out for the best price, isn't it?"

The reality is, after you went back, you didn't reveal a single word of this to Kisuke Urahara.

Upon hearing this, Tsukishima Hidekuro's expression finally changed, and for the first time, he had a bad feeling.

"What do you mean by that? Aren't you the current Higashino Shuichi?"

Hidekuro Tsukishima questioned Shuichi Higashino.

"Of course not. The process of modifying memories is very long for you, but it is a very short process for the outside world. I simply don't have the energy to deal with your trivial matters when I'm in the middle of a battle."

Therefore, this kind of thing can only be dealt with when I have free time.

Shuichi Higashino really liked the way Hidekuro Tsukishima was initially rebellious, but then became panicked.

"impossible!

You're trying to trick me into telling you something!
Such a illogical event is absolutely impossible!

Hidekuro Tsukishima tried to justify himself.

But in reality, those who know already know; he has already believed most of it in his heart.

"Nothing is impossible. I just happened to have experienced something similar before and then gained similar abilities. That's why my Zanpakuto can have such complete abilities!"

All that's needed now for Hidekuro Tsukishima is to add one last spark to his soul.

Therefore, Higashino Shuichi generously granted Tsukishima Hidekuro some access to his memories, allowing Tsukishima Hidekuro to see the series of events that occurred after the Osaka Prefecture incident, in a fictional future.

"how come?
How can this be? !
What is going on?

Hidekuro Tsukishima stood frozen in place, his mind completely absorbed in the memory of Shuichi Higashino.

Even though Tsukishima Hidekuro knew that these were Higashino Shuichi's past memories, and that Higashino Shuichi had deliberately shown them to him, he still couldn't help but want to witness them.

So what is the price?

Higashino Shuichi slowly walked up to Tsukishima Shukuro, looking at him with vacant eyes and muttering to himself.

It was Higashino Shuichi who raised his broken blade.

It was Higashino Shuichi who stabbed Tsukishima Hidekuro in the chest.

Hidekuro Tsukishima is a human, not a god.

A heart pierced by a needle is beyond saving, even by a miracle.

Even in this world of memories, this is true.

Immersed in Higashino Shuichi's memories, he was still greedily absorbing this information about the future.

But he found that his consciousness was becoming increasingly blurred.

Hidekuro Tsukishima could guess that he was probably going to die.

But looking at this seemingly incredibly real world before him, he was still unwilling to let his consciousness return. Instead, he stepped forward, wanting to see more.
"This is just a world of memories; I can go back."
"As long as I can memorize what I see here, these will all be my bargaining chips when I get back."

Hidekuro Tsukishima thought this way, and he acted accordingly.

He walked forward resolutely until his consciousness faded away.

In the small world where Higashino Shuichi was, he looked at Tsukishima Hidekuro, who died peacefully before him without any struggle, silently reached out and closed his lifeless eyes, then drew his sword and turned away.

“I can probably tell what you’re thinking. Generally speaking, this is a world of memories. If you die here, it won’t affect you in reality. But you’re unfortunate. You probably don’t know that there is a kind of death called brain death.”

"And my knife can do that."

This ability was specifically developed to target Hidekuro Tsukishima.

Although it no longer possesses the decisive power of Higashino Shuichi's Bankai, it can still achieve a similar effect when combined with Higashino Shuichi's plans and other abilities.

Hidekuro Tsukishima's defeat stemmed from his overconfidence in his own understanding. It can only be said that the greatest obstacle limiting humanity's ability to challenge the Grim Reaper is time itself.

Their short lifespans meant that their perspectives could never surpass those of a death god who had lived for hundreds of years.

In the small world where Kisuke Urahara and his companions were, only four people remained. Kisuke Urahara stood by and watched, Jushiro Ukitake dragged his broken body to mourn the death of Shunsui Kyoraku, and the heavily injured Kūgo Ginjō struggled to crawl to the side of Hidekūrō Tsukishima, wanting to ask the latter why he hadn't made a move yet.

To his horror, Ginjo Kūgo discovered that he had thought Tsukishima Shūkyūrō was just putting on airs, which was why he had been keeping his head down and pretending to be calm and composed while reading.

As a result, Tsukishima Hidekuro's eyes, which were fixed on the book in his hand, were unfocused and listless.

He simply maintained the posture of looking down at the book, but his soul had already died long ago.

The reason why the past cannot be changed is because the present is the future created by the past that has already been changed.

Everything is already predetermined; only the future remains unknown.

This is the fundamental reason why Yhwach's omniscience and omnipotence can only influence the future but cannot change the past.

What Hideichi Higashino was doing was simply reshaping the past that should have existed in the first place.

However, at this moment, Higashino Shuichi was also unaware of this.

For Hidekuro Tsukishima, he was merely an important partner to Kūgo Ginjō, but to Shuichi Higashino and Kisuke Urahara, he was nothing more than a fleeting passerby in their lives.

If he hadn't been chosen to join this battle by chance, he wouldn't even deserve a name.

"So, this is what omniscience and omnipotence really mean?"

Kisuke Urahara withdrew his gaze from the grieving Ginjo Kugo and looked into the distance.

He knew that in that place he couldn't see, Yoruichi Shihouin was probably fighting Yhwach.

Even if Yoruichi Shihouin possesses the divine weapon, the Eight Mirrors Sword, she would likely still be no match for Yhwach, who wields omniscience and omnipotence.

Kisuke Urahara called for so many helpers but didn't make a move because he wanted to use their strength to figure out Yhwach's true power.

Kisuke Urahara now feels that it's about time.

At this point in the battle, even if Yhwach might still have some trump cards up his sleeve, they couldn't possibly be much stronger than what he had shown.

Based on the preparations he has made so far, the probability of him defeating Yhwach is 90%!

"We need to take care of Yhwach before that troublesome Aizen comes back from over there~"
Seventeen hours should be enough time.

Kisuke Urahara glanced at the timer in his hand. Although the people on the West Coast Bureau were generally weaker than those on the East Coast Bureau.

However, Aizen was such a huge threat after all. With the people there fighting desperately and working together to suppress him, it was probably only a small part that they could delay Aizen for so long.

What Kisuke Urahara needs to do is to resolve the problem of Yhwach within this timeframe.

Kisuke Urahara was moved.

To the astonishment of Jushiro Ukitake and Kūgo Ginjō, Kisuke Urahara tore apart the entire small world that Shuichi Higashino had previously created with his bare hands.

Brutality and terror.

However, unlike Ginjo Kūgo's shocked expression, Ukitake Jūjūrō, who still retained some rationality, saw something in Urahara Kisuke that shouldn't exist in him.

It was gray, filthy, and full of danger.

He had only seen a similar being in a certain Grim Reaper whose name he could no longer speak of.

"Do you even realize what kind of taboo you're touching, Kisuke?!"

Jushiro Ukitake watched Kisuke Urahara's retreating figure with concern, thinking to himself.

He didn't say it directly because he knew that saying such things in this environment would be somewhat inappropriate.

Meanwhile, on the other side, Nemu, who has temporarily inherited the Quincy power from Higashino Shuichi, and Yoruichi Shihouin have been fighting countless rounds in this vast world of shadows.

If we only consider combat performance, even if Nemu perfectly replicates Higashino Shuichi's genes, she still cannot compare to Yoruichi Shihouin, who has honed her skills in the captain's position for hundreds of years.

Not to mention that Yoruichi Shihouin's Eight Mirrors Sword is itself a counter to Shuichi Higashino's current overwhelming power.

It can be said that the greater the gap between Higashino Shuichi's power and Shihouin Yoruichi's power, the stronger the power that Shihouin Yoruichi obtained from the Eight Mirrors Sword became.

Therefore, Nemu was constantly being suppressed by Yoruichi Shihouin.

Even now, Nemuru has completely lost the energy to use her omniscient and omnipotent power to create the appearance of Yhwach.

She openly revealed her true self to Yoruichi Shihouin.

However, compared to Yoruichi Shihouin, Nemu has an advantage: unlimited physical strength, spiritual power, and the unlimited regeneration power provided by Yhwach's self-granted ability.

As long as Yoruichi Shihouin doesn't kill Nemu in one blow, Nemu can be resurrected through self-granting.

Even if Yoruichi Shihouin used the Eight Mirrors Sword to pulverize Nemu with lightning, Higashino Shuichi, who was one with Nemu and had long since returned from the world of memories and was hiding in the shadows, was still able to revive Nemu using the Quincy power that had returned.

This was never a fair fight.

But then again, there is no such thing as a fair fight in this world.

The ultimate law of this world is that the victor is king and the loser is villain.

Therefore, when Nemuru finally exhausted her strength and stepped on Yoruichi Shihouin, who was too weak to even lift the Eight Mirrors Sword, Nemuru was happy.

She felt that she had finally helped her father this time, instead of being a burden.

Regardless of the process, Yoruichi Shihouin has been defeated by her!
Because they were originally one, after defeating Yoruichi Shihouin, Nemu almost subconsciously looked towards the hiding place of Shuichi Higashino and showed him the first genuine smile she had ever had since birth.

At this moment, Yinmeng really wanted to shout out "Father!"

However, at that moment, a slash flew in from afar. The eerie gray aura completely sealed off its movement, so much so that Nemuru, Yoruichi Shihouin, and the others, including Higashino Shuichi, did not notice the slash.

Whoosh!
Nemuro's body was severed in half at the waist!

Higashino Hideichi hurriedly tried to use the power he had been given to revive Nemuru, only to find that the connection between him and Nemuru was on the verge of collapse. The broken Hōgyoku that connected him and Nemuru was now cracked in countless ways and was about to give way.

Higashino Shuichi could only temporarily store the half of Nemuro's body, who was on the verge of death and might only have a few breaths left, into his own Peach Blossom Space to prolong her life.

Watching the figure slowly approaching from afar, Higashino Shuichi could only barely contain his anger, uttering each word slowly and deliberately from the depths of his being.
"Kisuke Urahara!"

The incident happened so suddenly that Higashino Shuichi had no time to react.

However, Higashino Shuichi knew very well that blood debts must be repaid in blood. (End of Chapter)
