Death: Captain Millennium

Rukia, who was imprisoned in the prison, also heard the shrill alarm at this time.

"Could it be... Ichigo broke into Soul Society?" Rukia shook her head, dismissing this unrealistic thought. She knew that the Soul Society was heavily guarded. Not only was Ichigo probably dead, but even if he survived, it would be impossible for him to easily break into Soul Society.

However, she still had a glimmer of hope in her heart. After all, what if it really was Ichigo?

Although Rukia didn't know what was happening outside, the sound of the alarm meant that Seireitei had been invaded. As a prisoner, she began to pray that Seireitei could repel the foreign enemies. After all, she was also a god of death.

In the First Division's meeting room, with Kenpachi Zaraki's departure, Genryusai Shigekuni Yamamoto decided that the meeting was no longer necessary. He decided not to pursue Ichimaru Gin's unauthorized actions, and instead had the captains of each division return to their posts to ensure the safety of Seireitei.

"The meeting is dismissed!"

After Yamamoto Genryūsai Shigekuni gave the order, the captains left one after another. Although they were all indifferent to the invasion, as captains, they had to stick to their own divisions and ensure that Seireitei was safe from foreign invasion.

Before leaving, Aizen walked up to Toushirou and asked casually, "Captain Hitsugaya, what do you think of Ichimaru Gin?"

Toushirou looked confused, but replied, "He...he's a very powerful man."

Aizen smiled slightly and continued, "Do you think there's any chance he'll betray Soul Society?"

This sentence startled Toushirou. He thought of the incident where Ichimaru Gin had allegedly let Ryouho go and invaded Seireitei. He couldn't help but frown, "That... I can't say."

Aizen gave him a meaningful look, then turned and left, saying as he walked: "Well, it's really hard to judge..."

After hearing this, Ichimaru Gin showed a barely perceptible smile on his face.

And Toshiro looked at Ichimaru Gin's iconic fox smile and fell into deep thought. His suspicion of Ichimaru Gin deepened.

I have to say that children are so easy to fool. Aizen fooled Toshiro with just a few words.

In the lounge, the vice-captains were discussing recent events when they suddenly received an order to return to their respective squads for alert.

Everyone stood up and left, and the originally bustling lounge became empty in an instant.

In the 11th Division area, Ichigo and Shiba Ganju fell from the sky.

Ichigo landed hard on the ground, grimacing in pain, "Ouch! My butt's gonna burst!"

Shiba Ganju landed on a nearby rooftop. He patted his chest and said thankfully, "Luckily, I'm agile, otherwise I would have been smashed to pieces."

At this moment, Madarame Ikkaku and Ayasegawa Yumichika rushed over.

They had seen Ichigo and Ganju fall into this position a long time ago, and a hint of joy flashed in their eyes.

A corner of Madarame said excitedly: "Haha, it's really true that after searching for a long time, I found it without any effort!"

Ayase Gawa Yumichika echoed, "That's right, these two guys actually came to our door on their own accord."

Ichigo and Ganju looked at each other and both felt something was wrong.

They quickly stood up and prepared to escape.

But Madarame Ikkaku and Ayasegawa Yumichika did not give them a chance and quickly blocked their way.

Ichigo gritted his teeth and said, "Damn it, why are we so unlucky!"

Shiba Ganju sighed helplessly, "Alas, it looks like another fierce battle is coming today." He said as he assumed a fighting stance. However, unexpectedly, he turned and ran away at full speed, with no intention of fighting at all.

"I'll leave this guy to you. I'll go chase that coward." Ikkaku and Yumichika were stunned when they saw this scene. Before Ikkaku could react, Yumichika had already caught up with him.

Ikkaku had a faint smile on his face as he slowly walked towards Ichigo: "Boy, why don't you run? Are you too scared to walk?"

Ichigo looked at Ikkaku with a puzzled look on his face, "Why should I run? If I encounter an enemy, I can just fight them. Why would I run if I can win? There's no point in running if I can't win."

Ikkaku drew his Zanpakutō. "Good! You have courage. Let me test whether your strength is worthy of your arrogance."

Ichigo instinctively wanted to draw his Zangetsu and start a fight, but then he remembered his father's earnest advice: Ichigo! Remember to announce your family name before you fight. Knowing how to fight is useless! To get into trouble, you need power! You need connections!

"Wait a minute!" Ichigo suddenly spoke up, stopping Madarame Ikkaku who was about to take action.

Madarame paused when he heard Ichigo's voice. He turned to look at Ichigo and asked with a puzzled look on his face, "What's wrong, kid? Are you as scared as that kid?"

"Afraid? I've never been afraid of anyone!" Ichigo laughed disdainfully, then continued, "But before we fight, you have to tell me who you are."

Madarame was stunned for a moment after hearing this, then he revealed a smug smile and said loudly, "Humph, boy, listen carefully! I am Madarame Ikkaku, the assistant to the vice-captain of the 11th Division! What do you think? Are you scared silly?"

Ichigo looked at Madarame's arrogant expression and couldn't help but roll his eyes, secretly complaining in his heart whether this guy had a mental problem. Then he took another look at Madarame's bald head and wondered why this guy was so strange. But since he wanted to know who he was, he told him. So Ichigo decided to introduce himself: "Oh~ You are Madarame Ikkaku, big bald head, listen up, my name is Shiba Ichigo! My father is Shiba Isshin, the former captain of the 10th Division!" After saying this, Ichigo smiled proudly.

Madarame Ikkaku's grip loosened, nearly dropping his Zanpakutō. What had the boy just said? He said his father was Captain Shiba? Was he kidding?

After hearing this, Madarame stood there in a daze for a long time, carefully observing the yellow-haired man in front of him, and found that he looked a bit like Captain Shiba.

Madarame stared at Ichigo with eyes wide open in disbelief, muttering to himself: Could this kid really be Captain Shiba's son? Impossible, didn't Captain Shiba Isshin die more than 20 years ago?

Ikkaku struggled for a long time and decided to fight with Ichigo. After all, he was the third seat of the 11th Division. Even if the boy in front of him was Captain Shiba's son, it was still a bit unreasonable to let him go. He could only let him go when the fight started.

Madarame, determined, shouted angrily, "I don't care if you're Captain Shiba's son or not. If you break into Seireitei, you're our enemy. Come on."

With that, he slashed at Ichigo. Ichigo dodged the attack and drew his Zangetsu, readying himself for battle. "Tsk! What dad said about reporting my family is of no use at all."

The two men grabbed their Zanpakutō and began to clash. The clanking of metal clashing was endless, and sparks flew everywhere. After a few moves, Madarame realized that Ichigo's Zanpakutō was quite good, so he asked about his master. "Boy, your Zanpakutō is quite good. Who is your master?"

Ichigo replied dismissively, "Urahara Kisuke taught me the art of slashing for a few days, but he can't be considered my teacher."

Originally, Madarame Ikkaku was skeptical about what Ichigo had just said, but when he heard Urahara Kisuke's name, he was sure in his heart that what he had just said must be true. After all, this name is not something that everyone can know.

You have to know that Kisuke Urahara is a figure in Soul Society. He once served as the captain of the 12th Division and the director of the Technical Development Bureau. Ordinary people would not know his identity.
