Restricted Death

Chapter 111: Suppress!

Saito Hisaya's quick defeat caught countless people off guard. Except for the few captains and vice-captains present, most people did not see clearly how Xin made his move.

Many people have different thoughts about the strength shown by Xin.

Some people think this is normal, such as Unohana Retsu. She had witnessed Shin's attack with her own eyes. Although she still didn't know the upper limit of his strength, she was not surprised that he could defeat the third place in the Sixth Division with just one move.

But she was the only one who thought so.

Kyoraku Shunsui suddenly whispered to Ukitake beside him, "I think I know what this guy's strength is. You and I couldn't see through him before."

Upon hearing this, Fuzhu remained silent.

"This kid is really good."

Captain of the 11th Division, Kenpachi Zaraki, suddenly grinned and said that he had also heard of Tachigawa Nobuyuki from Ikkaku Madarame.

Madarame Ikkaku knew this the first time he was defeated by the opponent. Later, he asked Madarame Ikkaku to find a way to invite this person to the 11th Division to fight with him, but was rejected by Tachigawa Nobuyuki.

He had only been able to witness other people's fights for two consecutive days, and now a guy appeared who he found interesting, but he was unable to join the fight, which made him extremely itchy.

Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni, who was standing among the crowd, suddenly sighed for no reason.

The strength displayed by Xin was not enough to shock him. Although he had just graduated from the Spiritual Arts Academy for less than a year, he was nothing more than a rare genius in a century.

What disappointed him was that such a rising star in the Soul Society did not seem to be a docile person.

Xin quickly shifted his gaze away from Gin Ichimaru and looked at the other targets.

His behavior is like choosing his own opponent.

"This guy is really arrogant!"

The captain of the second division, Soi Fong, snorted coldly and turned to look at Omaeda Kichiyo beside her.

"Come on!"

Upon hearing this, Omaeda secretly groaned: "Captain, I... may not be able to beat him!"

Soi Fong immediately became angry and stared at Ohmaeda, forcing Ohmaeda to stand up.

Seeing a new challenger, everyone turned their attention to the next showdown.

Although Xin had met the deputy captain of the second team several times at the deputy captain's performance review meeting, they had not had much contact and had not even spoken a word to each other.

Omaeda Kichiyo's extremely strong body came into the field, and his image did not give any sense of oppression. Instead, it looked a bit funny with his jeweled outfit.

"Tachigawa Three, we are just sparring. In this exchange, friendship comes first, competition comes second. Just stop when it's enough." Omaeda spoke first, saying with a wry smile.

Xin smiled upon hearing this: "That's right, friendship comes first, competition comes second."

Omaeda's face lit up when he heard this: "That's right, that's right, we just need to have a little fight."

"Ohmaeda, what the hell are you doing?!"

At this moment, Soi Fong outside the field couldn't help but yell in anger.

Omaeda's expression suddenly changed: "Tachigawa Third Seat, I'm going to take it."

After saying this, he drew his Zanpakutō from his waist and chanted, "Smash him, Go-Shaped Head!"

But the blade flashed with light and turned into a huge black meteor hammer covered with spikes.

As he released his Zanpakutō, there were bursts of exclamations from the audience around him.

Ohmaeda held the iron chain tightly with one hand and swung the meteor hammer suddenly with force. The huge iron fist drew a big circle in the air, carrying gusts of wind, and he swung it with great vigor.

He shouted loudly, took a step forward and leaped, and the five-shaped head smashed directly towards the location where Xin was.

Judging from its power, if someone were really hit by such a heavy thing, they would probably be crippled if not dead.

Xin did not dodge, but raised one hand.

"The eighth way of binding: rebuke!"

A spirit particle barrier popped out from his hand, blocking the meteor hammer. However, this seemingly weak barrier did not break on the spot after being hit by the five-shaped head, but actually knocked it away.

Omaeda was even more shocked when he saw this. He didn't expect that the other party could block the attack of his five-shaped head with just one No. 8 Ghost Way.

How strong a spiritual pressure must one have to be able to do this? !

He didn't believe it, so he grabbed the chain again and swung the meteor hammer wildly. At the same time, the spiritual pressure on his body surged, and a strong wind was set off around him.

"Smash him for me, Five-Shaped Head!"

He roared angrily, and the meteor hammer smashed towards Xin again with devastating force.

This time the sound was even more violent than before. Xin put one hand on his waist and watched the black giant rushing towards him.

Shine——

The katana was unsheathed, and a spark burst out in front of him. The trajectory of the meteor hammer was deflected to the side by Xin's sword strike.

Xin's figure was like a ghost. With just a flash, he instantly appeared one meter in front of Omaeda.

Ohmaeda was immediately horrified. After his Zanpakuto was released, he basically lost the ability to fight in close combat. The meteor hammer was more suitable for medium-range killing, not to mention that he had just stiffened and threw it away.

He wanted to retreat, but there was no time to dodge. The coldness from the opponent's knife shocked his mind. In panic, he suddenly felt a sharp pain in his legs, and he fell to his knees on the ground uncontrollably.

thump!
Omaeda Kichiyo's sturdy body collapsed to the ground, his legs were in uncontrollable pain, and he couldn't get up at all.

The soul knots in both legs were pierced...

Omaeda slumped on the ground, trying to figure out why he couldn't get up. He raised his head and looked in front of him.

Xin stood calmly in a black Death Tyrant costume, holding the shallow sword and slowly putting it into the sheath.

If drawing a sword doesn't make people afraid, then it's better to keep the sword in its sheath.

Now that I have chosen to reveal myself, I must make a splash.

Seeing this, Soi-Feng outside the arena sighed heavily, "What an idiot!"

She was naturally aware of Omaeda's strength, but this duel was unavoidable, so she might as well go on the field and show some style in the battle.

But I didn't expect Omaeda to lose so quickly. He was not much better than Saito Hisaya just now.

The strength of this Tachikawa Nobuyuki may have far exceeded the scope of vice-captain.

If his spiritual pressure reached the third level of spiritual power, he could barely be considered a captain-level fighter...

But that shouldn't be possible. Soi Fong just looked at the information of today's contestants yesterday. When Tachigawa Nobuyuki entered school, his spiritual pressure test showed that he was only at the eighth level of spiritual power.

Since he wasn't born with strong spiritual pressure, it wouldn't be possible for it to grow so fast.

Omaeda Kichiyo was placed on a stretcher and carried away by the members of the Fourth Division. He felt ashamed and covered his face with his arms, muttering to the members of the Fourth Division who were carrying him: Walk faster.

After testing by Tohru Yuune, it was discovered that his leg spirit knots were also pierced by Shin, causing him to be temporarily unable to use his legs.

This also made Hu Cheyongyin feel even more worried. She didn't know if something bad would happen if Xin continued like this.

Xin won two games in a row, and his opponents in both games could not last more than two rounds in his hands. Such a result made all the contestants today look solemn.

It seems that they will face the same fate as Saito Hisaya and Omaeda Kichiyo.

This also made many people secretly complain.

It's fine for Gin Ichimaru who has already mastered Bankai, but how come this guy from the Fourth Division is so powerful? Could it be that today's duel is just to serve as a foil for these two?

Although they had all served as deputy captains or high-ranking officers for several years, even dozens of years, they had never encountered such a situation.

"I come!"

Just when many people turned their eyes to Gin Ichimaru, someone else took the initiative to stand up at this moment.

When everyone looked over, they found that it was Togakushi Li Kong from the Third Division, and they all looked strange.

Togakushi Riku was actually quite famous in Team 13, and he was also a good member of the team. Because Team 3 had no captain or vice-captain, all team affairs were handled by him. However, he did the work of both captain and vice-captain, but he was not even promoted to vice-captain.

Maybe it's just like what Togakushi Riku said to Nobu before, with his qualifications, being able to get the third place is the limit.

Or maybe there is some other reason.

However, everyone knows that Togakushi Riku's strength is limited. Although it will not affect his daily tasks, there is a big gap between him and the vice-captains of other teams, and he is very likely to be the last among today's contestants.

At this point, everyone admired his courage.

"Nobu-kun."

After Togakushi Likong came on stage, Tong Xin took the initiative to greet him.

He had previously invited Shin to join the Third Division, but Shin had not agreed at the time. In fact, he did not hold much hope at the time. After all, Shin was a Kaido-type Zanpakutō, so it was natural for him to be in the Fourth Division.

Moreover, the third team has basically decided on a new captain. If you really want to believe that someone will come to the third team, he will most likely be just a deputy captain.

Xin Zhengzhi nodded slightly: "Senior Togakushi."

Togakushi Likong laughed and said, "I never thought that Nobu-kun has such strong strength. It seems that I underestimated you before."

"I didn't expect that Togakushi-senpai would take the stage at this time."

"You have to come up eventually. If you take the initiative now, it won't be so embarrassing even if you lose."

Xin said nothing more, but took the initiative to draw out his Zanpakuto.

Togakushi Likong took a deep breath and also drew out his Zanpakuto. The two stood facing each other. Togakushi Likong knew that he was no match for his opponent, so he shouted and rushed towards Xin.

He moved quickly and was close to Xin in a flash. The veins on his hands holding the knife were bulging as he chopped Xin's shoulder with the knife.

As soon as the move was made, Huyin Li Kong's nerves tensed up. Before his heart beat a second time, he vaguely heard the sound of fluttering clothes in his ears.

Ding!
whoosh-

Xin's sword was too fast. Even at a close distance, Togakushi Riku was still unable to see how the other party swung the sword. The extremely ordinary shallow strike easily knocked down the Zanpakuto in his hand and put a sword against his throat.

The cold touch made Hu Yin Li Kong's hair stand on end, and he felt a sharp pain in the palm of his hand. The sword that he couldn't see clearly actually carried tremendous power.

"Togakushi-senpai, acknowledge it."

Togakure Li Kong swallowed stiffly. He had encountered Xin leading the team on field missions more than once during support missions, and when working with Xin, he had seen him kill Hollows easily.

But experiencing it myself as his enemy was a completely different feeling.

He suddenly felt a little sorry for those weak creatures. He guessed they didn't even know how they died.

Togakushi Likong took a step back, calmed his breath, and picked up his Zanpakutō.

He felt lucky, at least Xin did not penetrate his soul knot, so he would not be unable to participate in the next duel.

Although the chances of winning in the next competition are equally slim.

However, the absence of Vice Captain Omaeda and Saito Sansei allowed him to win two more games, making his results look better.

If there were a few more casualties in the upcoming battle, perhaps their Third Division wouldn't be at the bottom...

"..."

After picking up the Zanpakuto, Togakushi Likong suddenly thought of something and looked at Xin with his eyes wide open.

"What's wrong, Togakushi-senpai?" Xin asked calmly.

"No, it's nothing..."

The day before yesterday, and today... Could it be that Xinjun...

Hu Yin Li Kong suddenly felt his thoughts a little confused, and a shocking thought popped up in his mind.

Why didn't Xin take any harsh measures against him?

Could it be because I still have some friendship with him...

It’s better this way, it’s better this way.

Togakushi Likong muttered to himself as he walked off the field. He couldn't help but glance at the captain's seat and found that the captains there all had different expressions.

Kuchiki Byakuya of the Sixth Division had the same indifferent expression as always, and nothing could be seen.

After the duel ended, everyone in the audience began to whisper.

Although Togakushi Riku from the third squad lost, he was fine.

What if two or three more wounded soldiers like Omaeda Kichiyo and Saito Hisaya who are unable to fight appear in the next battle?

Doesn't this mean that Togakushi Riku will win several battles for nothing?

This way, the overall ranking is...

"Captain, would you like to temporarily stop and change the rules?"

Suzuki Chojiro suddenly whispered in Yamamoto Genryūsai Shigekuni's ear.

Captain Yamamoto was silent for a moment, then said, "No, that's all."

He looked at Nobuyuki Tachigawa on the field.

Originally, he had asked Chojiro Suzuki to make some changes to the rules of this exchange meeting so that Shin could not target the Sixth Division.

But unexpectedly, the letter was successful.

But it doesn’t matter.

What he cares about more now is whether Xin's strength has reached the level of a captain, what level of spiritual power he has, and whether he has learned Bankai...

And who is stronger between him and Gin Ichimaru.

An ordinary team member does not have the capital to be rebellious.

But if it was a captain, I think the nobles would be willing to tolerate him.

Moreover, he is such a young captain.

"silver."

Aizen in the captain's seat suddenly called out softly, smiling warmly and reaching out to push up his glasses.

"Do you want me to go on stage now?" asked Gin Ichimaru with a smile.

"I thought someone as important as me would have to appear last."

Aizen also said with a smile: "Don't you see, some people can't wait any longer?"
