At this time, a slender figure walked out from a corner of the dark street.
Everyone came back to look.
A boy with black middle-parted hair and wearing a pair of glasses appeared in the sight of several people.
His hands were wrapped in bandages, and one of them still had remnants of dissipated spirit particles.
He was holding a shopping bag in his other hand and seemed to be just passing by.
"Can you actually see us?!"
"There is also this method of using spirit particles..."
Staring at the boy who suddenly appeared, Abarai Renji frowned slightly.
"who are you?!"
"I'm just her classmate."
The handsome boy reached out and gently pushed the glasses on his nose.
"A person who already hated the God of Death now hates him even more."
"classmate?"
Abarai Renji was a little stunned, while Kuchiki Byakuya beside him took light steps.
He stared at the uninvited guest for a few seconds.
As one of the four nobles of Soul Society, Byakuya Kuchiki is no stranger to the use of spirit arrows.
"Quincy..."
"Ishida-san..."
When Rukia Kuchiki saw Ishida Uryu appear to save her, a warm feeling surged in her heart.
But it soon became uneasy, even worried!
She knew the strength of Ishida Uryu, not to mention her elder brother Byakuya who was the captain of the squad.
Even facing Renci was difficult.
"Ishida, why are you here?"
Rukia Kuchiki stood up while covering her wound, turning her face to the side and giving a wink while speaking.
Signaled Ishida Uryu to leave quickly.
“Just passing by by chance.”
Ishida Uryu ignored her gaze, pushed up his glasses and said:
"I didn't run out because I felt the Shinigami's spiritual pressure and was worried about your safety."
"..."
Rukia was speechless.
Didn't you say all that?
However, Abarai Renji was not interested in listening to the reminiscing, and swung his Zanpakutō towards Ishida Uryu.
"Ishida, be careful!!"
Rukia shouted hurriedly.
Swish!
The knife flashed, and the plastic bag in Ishida Uryu's hand was split into two and fell to the ground.
He himself was almost hit.
"No matter who you are, if you interfere with the mission, you will be eliminated."
Abarai Renji pointed his knife at Ishida Uryu and grinned.
"Really? I'll give you the same message."
Ishida Uryu pushed his glasses up and said, "I won't let any of the Shinigami who attack my friends go free."
Then......
It turns out that being tough cannot change the gap in ability.
After just a few rounds, Ishida Uryu was chopped down neatly.
There was a huge wound on his stomach, and he fell straight to the ground, with resentment written all over his pretty face.
Just as Abarai Renji was preparing for the final blow.
A terrifying sense of crisis suddenly emerged from deep within my heart.
It was as if if this knife fell, he would die! !
That is the moment of hesitation.
The protagonist, Ichigo Kurosaki, who arrived a step late, successfully saved the situation.
"One after another, it's so annoying."
Abarai Renji dodged the attack, veins bulging on his forehead, and he became very impatient.
However, when he saw the Shinigami outfit on Ichigo Kurosaki, he frowned.
"Which squad are you from? Why haven't I seen it before? And what's with that Zanpakutō!?"
Noticing the large sword that Kurosaki Ichigo was carrying, his expression froze for a few seconds.
But when he noticed something strange about Rukia, his eyes instantly darkened.
"That's right, I understand."
"You are the human who stole the spiritual power from Rukia!"
At this moment, Abarai Renji seemed to have been triggered.
He launched a fierce attack on Ichigo Kurosaki.
At first, facing the battle-hardened vice-captain Abarai Renji, Ichigo Kurosaki was beaten without any chance to fight back.
But as a protagonist, being able to withstand pressure is a basic quality.
After being slashed twice by overwhelming force, Ichigo Kurosaki's spiritual pressure suddenly surged, reversing the disadvantage.
He slashed Abarai Renji with a backhanded blow.
However, when he was about to chop down the second time, the huge Zanpakutō in his hand had already been inadvertently broken into two parts by Byakuya Kuchiki.
Immediately afterwards, the figures crossed each other, and Ichigo Kurosaki lost his combat ability.
"You want me to kill him... Captain Kuchiki..."
Abarai Renji took a step forward and placed his hand on his Zanpakutō, Jabimaru.
"No need for that. I have already completely destroyed the vital parts of his soul, the 'lock knot' and the 'soul sleep'. He will die soon."
With a stern face, Byakuya Kuchiki gently kicked away Ichigo Kurosaki's wrist that was tightly grasping his trouser leg, his expression extremely calm.
"Even if you manage to survive, the power and spiritual energy of the god of death will all disappear."
Of course, this is just polite talk.
Ike, Yoruichi, and Urahara Kisuke all knew it very well.
The reason why Byakuya Kuchiki didn't kill him was that he noticed someone was watching him in secret.
And he came for the two people on the ground.
In order to prevent the mission from going awry, he had no choice but to let it go.
"Ishida Ryugen..."
Ike touched his chin, not surprised by the other party's behavior.
After all, one is his own son, and the other is his cousin and first love's son. Naturally, he couldn't just stand by and watch them die.
"Why don't you go over? If you delay any longer, he will really die."
Ike glanced at Urahara Kisuke.
"Without your order, I dare not act on my own."
"Then let's go together. He happens to be a good worker."
At this time, heavy rain
Ichigo Kurosaki watched helplessly as his companions were taken away, and for the first time he felt what it meant to be powerless.
He had never longed for power as much as he did at this moment.
Just at this time.
There were a few crisp footsteps as they walked slowly towards the water.
"Hey, boy, do you need strength?"
Ichigo Kurosaki and Uryu Ishida, who were still conscious on the ground, heard the sound and used their last bit of strength to raise their heads.
I saw three figures appear 2 meters ahead.
One of them was the manager of a grocery store that Ichigo Kurosaki was familiar with.
But the person who spoke was obviously not him.
"You...can give me strength?"
The blood on his forehead gradually blurred Ichigo Kurosaki's vision.
But he still looked directly at the young man who was the leader among the three and asked with his last bit of strength.
"Of course!"
"But you should understand that nothing falls from the sky. If you want to gain power, you have to lose something."
As the savior of the weak, Ike returned to his old job.
Before reaping the world of death, it would be nice to have some sweet treats to satisfy your craving.
"Those things don't matter what they are. I want power, great power!"
"The power to save my friends!!"
Kurosaki Ichigo growled softly.
He didn't want to experience that feeling of powerlessness again.
"Kurosaki..."
Ishida Uryu, who was less injured, saw Kurosaki Ichigo's determination.
He swallowed the advice that was about to come to his mouth.
