Death: Captain Millennium

Chapter 166 Heading Towards Soul Society

Urahara Kisuke pulled out the Zanpakutō hidden in his cane and chopped it towards Ichigo's broken sword. Ichigo subconsciously used his sword to block it, but unexpectedly, this attack cut off half of his remaining sword handle.

"Kurosaki-san, if you don't take the next test well, you will die." Although Urahara Kisuke spoke softly, the murderous intent coming from him made Ichigo's hair stand on end.

"Wake up! Benihime." Urahara Kisuke initially released his Zanpakuto.

For a moment, Ichigo began to run desperately in front, and Urahara Kisuke was chasing him closely behind. As Ichigo ran, his mentality slowly changed. He remembered that Abarai Renji had asked him the name of his Zanpakuto before, and also remembered that Urahara Kisuke had called out "Beiji" when he released his Zanpakuto just now. He stopped and turned to face Urahara Kisuke.

Ichigo resonated with the Zangetsu within him, and for the first and only time, he uttered Zangetsu's Shikai (Word Spirit)—forget your fears and look forward. "Go forward, do not pause. Retreat only leads to aging, and cowardice will bring death." "Call my name, my name is: Zangetsu!"

A huge slash mixed with sky-blue spiritual pressure shot out from Ichigo's broken sword. Urahara Kisuke dodged the slash sideways and looked at Ichigo quietly.

The spiritual pressure fluctuations dissipated, and the shape of the Zanpakuto in Ichigo's hand changed. It was no longer a machete like before, but a giant butcher knife without a hilt or handle, with a white bandage wrapped around the handle.

Kisuke Urahara looked at Ichigo's Zanpakuto and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. The real purpose of Test Three was to let Ichigo know the name of his Zanpakuto so that he could truly open his Shikai.

Ichigo weighed the Zangetsu in his hand. "Geta, you better hide well, I won't show any mercy." He said as he slashed at Urahara Kisuke with Zangetsu.

"Scream! Benihime." After sensing the power of the sword, Urahara Kisuke quickly switched to Benihime's liberated form and summoned a blood-red shield in front of him.

Without calling out the name of the move, Crescent Moon Sky Strike directly shattered half of the Blood Shield, cutting a huge gully behind Urahara Kisuke, and his hat also flew out under this slash.

Urahara Kisuke looked at the shattered Blood Shield in front of him and said with lingering fear, "Ahhh! Kurosaki-san, your slash is truly terrifying. You almost killed me."

After this period of training, Ichigo finally completed his training to recover his Shinigami power. At the same time, Yoruichi also successfully completed the special training of Inoue Orihime and others.

Ichigo and his companions return home and begin making final preparations for the upcoming battle.

"Ichigo, if you encounter trouble in Soul Society, you can go to West Ryukon Street to seek help from Shiba Kūkaku. She is the current head of the Shiba family and your cousin. Remember, don't be too reckless when fighting with others next time. First of all, you must report your family background in time, but in Soul Society, you'd better report the name of the Shiba family, not the name of the Kurosaki family, understand?" Kurosaki Isshin taught Ichigo seriously.

Facing his father's earnest instructions, Ichigo nodded, seemingly understanding. However, seeing his son's reaction, Kurosaki Isshin couldn't help but feel sad again: had he really raised Ichigo badly? An idea suddenly occurred to him - should he train a new trumpet?

After saying goodbye, Ichigo and his companions officially went to Soul Society with the help of Kisuke Urahara.

In Soul Society, in the captain's tea room, the bored Lin Yu immediately noticed Yoruichi's spiritual pressure.

As a vanguard heading to Soul Society, Yoruichi arrived earlier than Ichigo and the others. After all, using the gate to the world is much faster.

After sensing Ye Yi's location, Lin Yu rushed over at lightning speed.

Yoruichi was standing on a mountaintop, licking her paws leisurely, when suddenly a figure appeared and lifted her up. "Yoruichi-san, looks like your plan has begun, hasn't it?"

Yoruichi's hair stood on end at first, but he relaxed when he saw that it was Lin Yu. "Your perception is really sharp. You spotted me the moment I stepped into Soul Society. Ichigo and his companions are definitely on their way to Soul Society. They should be a few minutes behind me."

"Did you bring the divine body?" Lin Yu asked while stroking Ye Yi.

Ye Yi frowned and asked in confusion: "How do you know this thing?"

Lin Yu raised the corners of his mouth slightly, revealing a confident smile, "Do you think your little tricks can be hidden from me? Without the divine body transformation, Ichigo can quickly learn Bankai. With his strength, he is just here to be killed."

Yoruichi sighed. "Sometimes I really feel like you're a monster. It's like you know all our plans, and you've even made plans in advance to deal with them. It's really scary. Fortunately, you're not a crazy person like Aizen."

Lin Yu smiled slightly and continued, "But is it really a good idea for you to do this? The Bankai generated by the Tenshintai is flawed. It will be much more difficult for Ichigo to grow in the future than if he had learned Bankai normally."

After a moment of silence, Yoruichi said slowly, "There's nothing we can do about it. Time is so tight. It will take forever for Ichigo to grow up in an orderly manner."

Lin Yu disagreed. "You guys still underestimated Ichigo's potential. He's a real tough guy."

Yoruichi looked at Lin Yu curiously, wondering why he would make such an assessment of Ichigo. She didn't refute it either. Anyway, with a pervert like Lin Yu around, Aizen was destined to not cause much trouble.

"Where are you going?" Lin Yu asked about Ye Yi's destination.

"This...this." Yoruichi really hadn't decided where to go next. She didn't plan to go back to Shihouin's house, nor did she plan to go to the Second Division. After all, the little girl Soi Fong was still brooding over her defection from Soul Society.

Seeing that Ye Yi had nowhere to go, Lin Yu planned to take her directly back to the captain's tea room.

While on the way, Yoruichi in her arms was horrified to find that Lin Yu's instant step was so fast that it didn't take him much time to break into the Soul Society from the outskirts. In comparison, she felt that her title of the God of Instant was a joke.

"Where is this place?" Soon Lin Yu brought Ye Yi to an unfamiliar place. Although she had served as a captain, she had never stepped into the captain's tea room. She only knew that this place was the territory of the first team, but she really didn't know where it was specifically.

"This is the old man Shan's teahouse. Haven't you been here?" Lin Yu thought Ye Yi knew this place.

Ye Yi looked at Lin Yu speechlessly. "Why would I be here? I won't drink tea with you old guys. Don't you know that this is normal?"

Lin Yu, who was about to take a sip, was almost choked by Ye Yi's words. His eyes widened. "What old man? Am I really that old?" He said and started to slash at Ye Yi's cat head.

Ye Yi rolled his eyes helplessly, dodged Lin Yu's hand and said, "Stop making trouble, let's talk about serious things."

Lin Yu snorted and continued drinking.

Yoruichi once again took in the surroundings. "Have you been hiding here lately?"

"What do you mean by hiding here? I like staying here, okay? What do you know, a little girl?" Lin Yu retorted dissatisfiedly.

At this moment, the teahouse door was gently pushed open, and the captain rushed over. He smiled and said to Ye Yi, "It's not that he doesn't like it here, but I won't allow him to run around. If he does, I will hang him up and beat him up."

The captain's words instantly broke Lin Yu's defense. He jumped up, pointed at the captain's nose and shouted, "Yuan Liuzhai! That's too much! Can't you give me some face when there are juniors here?"

Yuan Liuzhai laughed, patted Lin Yu on the shoulder, and teased: "Do you still care about your face? Haven't you always been shameless?"

Lin Yu was suddenly speechless and could only glare at Yuan Liuzhai fiercely to express his dissatisfaction.
