Death: Captain Millennium

"Are there any more enemies?" It seems that this Yachukas is not panicking, but deliberately leading me here. However, for some reason, the person in the dark has no intention of saving it, so he let me kill it. Lin Yu tightened the Zanpakutō in his hand, "Come out! There is no point in hiding in the dark."

A sound of light footsteps came from the quiet cave and slowly spread out. A figure gradually became clear in Lin Yu's eyes.

"Oh my! We're in trouble this time. This blurry figure is almost as tall as a human. The only thing that can survive in this state in Hueco Mundo, besides the God of Death, is the highest-level Great Hyolite. The God of Death can be ruled out directly. After all, if it were the God of Death, he would have greeted me just now." Lin Yu had a bitter face, but still drew out his Zanpakutō.

Finally, the person appeared before Lin Yu. It was a woman, wearing a white mask shaped like an antelope skull. Her long, lake-green hair reached below her waist. She had gray-brown eyes and a rose-colored horizontal tattoo on her face. She wore a white combat uniform, white gloves, and a Zanpakutō-like object at her waist.

It turned out to be Nelliel du Odshvank. I remember the preface given to Nelliel by the author of Death was:

If you could give me a pair of wings, I would fly for you.

Even if... this land has completely sunk into water.

If you could give me a sword, I would stand up for you.

Even if... this sky has already shot you through with light.

Lin Yu breathed a sigh of relief upon recognizing the newcomer. If it were Nel, her behavior would be perfectly normal, given her innocent and friendly nature. As an automatic Arrancar, she doesn't need to devour her own kind to evolve, and therefore despises meaningless battles. She believes that Arrancar like herself have all fallen from humanity into Hollows, and now that they've finally regained their rationality as Arrancar, they shouldn't engage in pointless fighting. She doesn't enjoy fighting, but she's never afraid of it. While she dislikes combat, when someone important to her is hurt, she won't hesitate to pick up her sword and protect them.

Lin Yu sheathed his sword and was thinking about how to start the conversation. "You are the god of death, right? How did you appear in the world of Hueco Mundo?" Nelue broke the silence.

"Yes, I am the God of Death. I came to Hueco Mundo to train myself." Lin Yu felt that Nilu's spiritual pressure had no ill intentions, so this battle should not be fought.

"Uh," Nel was speechless for a moment. "I didn't expect you to be so honest and admit your identity directly." Although Nel disliked fighting, it didn't mean she was easy to bully. She was a very good fighter (knowing how to fight was useless. To get involved, you need strength and background. Lin Yu has the entire Gotei 13 behind him. What does Nel have?)

"In this era, there should not be the term "Espada". Nel is still alone, her mask is not broken, and there is no scar on her forehead. Her strength is now on the rise, and she should not have reached her strongest state yet. If I really fight her, I don't know if I can win, mainly because I don't know Bankai yet. If I learn Bankai, no matter who she is, I will beat her first." Thinking about it, Lin Yu laughed.

"Is this Shinigami an idiot? Why is he laughing for no reason? Is he a lunatic? That's right, who would come to Hueco Mundo if they were a normal Shinigami?" Nel was a little unsure about the Shinigami in front of her. If his spiritual pressure wasn't very peaceful and she didn't sense any malice, she would have drawn her sword long ago.

"My name is Lin Yu. Miss opposite me, can you tell me your name?" A very old-fashioned opening line.

"My name is Nelliel du Odeshvank," Nellie replied. "You're so brave to come to Hueco Mundo to train. You might as well lose your life."

"There are many powerful beings in Hueco Mundo. I want to challenge them and improve myself." Lin Yu scratched his head.

Nel shook her head slightly after hearing this. "You're such a strange Shinigami. Normally, Shinigami don't come to Hueco Mundo. But since you're here, you have to be careful. Hueco Mundo is full of dangers, and not every Vastod dislikes fighting like I do, especially with your status as a Shinigami."

Lin Yu nodded to express his gratitude. Ni Lu didn't seem as innocent as she looked. She must have been through a lot.

"By the way, Miss Nilu, why are you here?" Lin Yu asked curiously.

Nilu said softly, "I like to be alone. It's quieter."

Lin Yu had an idea. Maybe he could make friends with Nilu. He didn't know how long he would stay in Hueco Mundo. It would be a good choice to have someone to travel with.

"So what do you usually do?" Lin Yu asked.

"Well...see the scenery and occasionally fight with some hollows." Nilu thought for a moment and replied.

"Fight with Xu? Don't you dislike fighting?" Lin Yu was a little surprised.

"Only occasionally, and I won't kill them, I just do it for fun," Nilu explained.

Lin Yu couldn't help laughing. This Ni Lu was really interesting.

"Then can I travel around Hueco Mundo with Miss Nilu? It will be safer to have a companion." Lin Yu invited.

Nilu hesitated for a moment, but finally nodded.

"Okay, let's go together. But I can't promise that I will always be with you." Nilu said with a smile.

Thus, Lin Yu and Ni Lu embarked on a journey through Hueco Mundo. As they journeyed through Hueco Mundo together, they encountered various Hollows and encountered numerous dangers. However, they were able to escape danger each time, which brought their relationship closer and closer.

The years are not counted in Hueco Mundo. No one knows how much time has passed. Lin Yu's Kidou and Hakuto have also been improved to the level of perfection. He no longer needs to chant the Broken Dao below level 90 and can release it at will.

"Ms. Nilu, thank you for accompanying me in my journey through Hueco Mundo. I have a request that I hope you can agree to." After thinking for a long time, Lin Yu finally spoke to Nilu.

"Request? I won't agree to it if it's too much." Looking at Lin Yu's serious expression, Ni Lu did not express her attitude.

"Ms. Nilu, can you fight me? I want to assess my current strength. Please!"

"It's just a fight, no problem, I promise you." I thought it was something big, but a fight is nothing. "Come on!"

Lin Yu and Ni Lu stood facing each other, and the atmosphere became tense. Lin Yu gripped his Zanpakutō tightly, his eyes determined, while Ni Lu held the weapon with equal ease, a smile on her face.

The battle was about to break out, and Lin Yu took the lead in attacking, drawing his Zanpakuto and rushing towards Nilu, swinging his sword at her. Nilu dodged sideways and then counterattacked, her speed was so fast that Lin Yu was a little caught off guard.

The two fought back and forth, neither giving in. Lin Yu displayed various ghost techniques and white fighting skills, and Ni Lu also showed her strong strength.

"Ms. Nel, I'm about to perform my Shikai. Be careful."

"Under the starry sky, thunder shakes the nine heavens. The divine thunder of the sky slays gods and destroys demons. Release, Thunder Emperor Sword!"

Feeling Lin Yu's soaring spiritual pressure, Nilu also prepared to return to the sword. "I really can't underestimate you. Even compared with the strongest people in Hueco Mundo, you are not bad."

"Sing, Antelope Knight." Nel held her Zanpakutō horizontally with both hands and thrust forward. After releasing it, she transformed into a centaur wielding a double-headed spear. The two-headed horns originally attached to the skull mask became segmented, long horns that curved backwards. Her collarbone, shoulders, elbows, and hands were covered in white armor, and her arms were covered in black long-sleeved gloves.

"Come on, keep fighting!"

After a fierce battle, Lin Yu gradually gained the upper hand. He seized the opportunity and launched a full-strength slash. Ni Lu blocked the attack but was also pushed back a few steps.

"Miss Nilu, be careful, I'm going to use my strongest attack, which I haven't mastered yet. 'Thor's Judgment', summons a ray of divine thunder to cause a devastating blow to a single enemy." If he used all his strength, with Lin Yu's current strength, this attack could completely kill a Hollow that had just evolved into a Vastod, which was his strongest attack.

"That's great, Lin Yu. You didn't use your full strength." Ni Lu blocked the attack with difficulty, put away her weapon, and said with a smile.

Lin Yu panted heavily, looking at Ni Lu, his heart filled with a sense of accomplishment. This battle gave him a clearer understanding of his own strength.

"Ms. Nilu is my friend, we are just exchanging ideas." Lin Yu said.

"Friends? I hope we can still be friends when we meet next time. Goodbye, Lin Yu." Ni Lu said with a smile, then turned and left.

"Hey! Miss Nel. Whether you're a Hollow or a Shinigami, being too kind is not a good idea, especially in an environment like Hueco Mundo. I don't want to hear about your death the next time I come to Hueco Mundo."

"I got your message! Don't worry, I won't die easily."

Lin Yu looked at her departing back, lost in thought, wondering if this encounter could change Ni Lu's future tragic experience.

After the war, Lin Yu and Ni Lu exchanged what they had learned. After each other promised not to tell anyone else, Lin Yu acquired the skills of Xiang Zhuan and Xu Shan, while Ni Lu acquired the skills of Gui Dao.

An Arrancar who can use Kidō, this scene is unbearable to imagine...
