Chapter 37
Uehara Shiraha had long expected that he might encounter a special mission when he came to Hueco Mundo.
After all, this is also an important part of the world of Bleach.
However, he did not expect that this time the mission was indirectly triggered through Ise Nanao.
Uehara Shiraha looked at Ise Nanao with a subtle look.
Could this literary girl really be"Little Red Hand"?
But no matter what, having a special mission is a good thing and worth celebrating.
Noticing Uehara Shiraha's look, Ise Nanao asked a little blankly:"Why do you say this is a branch?"
Uehara Shiraha, who had just triggered a special mission, was in a good mood and patiently explained:
"The Hueco Mundo is actually divided into two layers: the surface and the underground.
The surface is the vast desert in front of us, filled with small hollows.
Under the desert is a vast underground space, known as the Great Hollow Forest.
In the Great Hollow Forest there are countless Great Hollows, as well as patches of extremely tall stone trees.
These underground trees continue to grow, and finally the crowns break through the sand layer on the ground, and their branches and leaves stretch out to form the stone branches in front of us."
"Great Hollow Forest!? Teacher Uehara, is this the Great Hollow I know?"Ise Nanao's face turned pale.
She had only seen illustrations of the Great Hollow in the textbooks of the Shin'ou Academy of Spiritual Arts.
The book said that only captains or royal spies could deal with this kind of monster.
"They are all old things from thousands of years ago, just like the captain, outdated." Uehara Baiyu shook his head:
"‘"It is better to have no books than to believe in them blindly. You will know after you experience it yourself."
The textbooks of the Shinō Academy of Spiritual Arts have not been changed for a long time. The books obviously exaggerate the strength of low-level Hollows, probably because they are afraid that these students will not take it seriously and then commit suicide.
However, it is true that only a vice-captain-level Shinigami can defeat Killian.
If a vice-captain-level Shinigami is counted as a captain-level Shinigami, then this statement is not so outrageous.
"Experience it yourself?" Ise Nanao didn't understand what Uehara Baiyu meant for a moment.
At this time, Kyoraku Shunsui appeared beside the two of them silently and said in a low voice:
"The intelligence team just received a message that they were attacked by the Hollows and requested support.
It seems that someone doesn't welcome us!"
"In that case, I will go and greet them properly."
Uehara Baiyu shrugged, looking calm:
"Nanao, let's go!"
Long before Kyoraku Shunsui arrived, he sensed the sudden abnormal spiritual pressure in the distance.
That kind of strength can only be from a Hollow Killian.
And it's not just one Hollow, but many Killians. The
Killians without independent consciousness will never gather together to actively attack the Shinigami if no one is controlling them.
This means that someone is behind the scenes. But for Uehara Shiroha, it doesn't matter who is behind it.
If someone else wants to take Ise Nanao to take risks, Kyoraku Shunsui will definitely not be at ease.
No matter how strong the opponent is, it won't work, but Uehara Shiroha is an exception.
Uehara Shiroha took a step towards the direction of the abnormal spiritual pressure. Go ahead.
Ise Nanao followed without hesitation.
But the further she walked, the paler her face became, and her expression became more uneasy.
Because the chaotic, heavy, and huge spiritual pressure in the air was too terrifying. The spiritual pressure contained an undisguised greedy will, just like a hungry person's insatiable thirst for food. Just a slight contact with this cold and evil spiritual pressure made Ise Nanao's hair stand on end, and her body became very heavy.
She remembered the horrific rumors about the hollows, the pain of being eaten alive, and becoming part of a monster after death.
Either way, it was creepy.
"If you are scared, you can go back!" Feeling the heavy breathing and scattered spiritual pressure of Ise Nanao behind him, Uehara Baiyu said without turning his head.
At this time, it is useless to say nice words, and in the end it is up to Ise Nanao to get through this level.
As for the"warm man", he is not even worthy of being a dog!
"Mr. Uehara, I……"Ise Nanao took a deep breath and her eyes became firm:"I will always follow your footsteps and will not fall behind even a step."
Uehara Baiyu said casually:
"I am glad that you can overcome your fear, but next, I want you to face your fear."
It is good to be brave, but it is not good to be too brave.
In this deep water world, if you don't have AC, you will die quickly.
……
Before Ise Nanao could say anything, Uehara Shiraha stopped and looked forward.
Behind him, Ise Nanao, who was out of breath, followed him, looked up, and was stunned:
"This is the Great Void! ?"
In the valley under the rolling sand dunes ahead, a group of Shinigami from the 11th Division were fighting.
Madarame Ikkaku and Ayase Gawa Yumichika, who had just released their Zanpakutō, were the most active.
The opponents they were fighting against were three giant monsters that were a hundred meters tall and wrapped in black cloaks.
The huge black hole on their chests and the clown-like long-nosed white masks on their faces indicated that these hill-like monsters were indeed hollows.
At this time, the three large hollows, together with hundreds of small and large hollows, cut the soldiers of the 11th Division into several battlefields.
From time to time, Shinigami fell, but the others had no time to pay attention and continued to fight desperately.
Madarame Ikkaku's combat power after his initial release should not be underestimated.
Although Kizunamaru was a bit weak, Madarame Ikkaku's combat literacy was very high.
It's just that although he could deal with the [Giant Hollow] that was slightly stronger than the small and large Hollow like cutting melons and vegetables, he still couldn't quickly resolve the battle when facing the large hollow Killian.
He looked at the enemy in front of him with an anxious look, then looked into the distance and shouted:
"Cheer up, Captain Zaraki has already killed their leader. I don't want to waste time with this bunch of scum, so fight hard.
Whoever dares to hold back at this time, I will kill him first!"
"I understand the reason, but why is this Hollow so big? This mask is not beautiful at all, it looks like a clown!"
Although Ayase Gawa Yumichika also wanted to meet up with Captain Zaraki immediately, he still said calmly:
"These monsters are really ugly, and their skin is so hard and they recover quickly. It
's hard for us to win the battle quickly."
He keenly noticed that the steel skin and super-fast regeneration ability of the Great Hollow Gillian were stronger than those of ordinary Hollows.
This made the battle situation more tense.
As for the"Noble Intelligence Team" that was attacked first, they had already been annihilated.
However, their sacrifice was worth it, at least it bought time for the expeditionary force.
