Chapter 215
soon.
Only Haruto and Anheduo were left in the entire Call Valley space, as well as the endless sea of souls that could not be seen.
"Thanks for your hard work."
"No, I'm here to trouble you."
What Haruto has to do is simple.
Shengli can absorb souls, and Soul King Posleep can absorb souls - taken alone or used together, they will not have any effect on the "living" Qinghun; but relying on the Qinghun's fusion instinct with the Missing Beads, Qing Qing can People can directly devour and fuse these spirit bodies without memory.
them......
All will become the nourishment for Soul King Posleep.
As Anheduo slowly released the power of the Missing Bead, the entire Valley began to undergo earth-shaking changes.
————
This world.
Naruki City, cross-borough bridge.
"Uh-huh!"
Urahara Kisuke is still maintaining the operation of the boundary strike instrument.
On the other side of the space where the unclear image of the valley was reflected, figures were quickly walking out of it.
"Congratulations."
Urahara Kisuke's congratulations sounded in everyone's ears.
"It seems that this trip to Minggu went well?"
"Boring~"
Ku Nanbai's voice was the first to respond.
"Xiao Qingqing got into all the interesting fights, we just went over to show our faces."
She obviously wanted a stronger opponent.
"Vice Captain Jiunan."
Urahara Kisuke pinched his rough bangs.
"That's also contributing our strength to hundreds of millions of souls... This is the duty of the God of Death, isn't it?"
"That's right."
Lisa took over what Kisuke Urahara said.
"The trouble at Ryuudou Temple has been resolved. We leave the finishing touches to Haruto Si-seki."
"......Understood."
Kisuke Urahara felt more and more that he might need a hat, especially in an operation involving a Shinigami other than the Second Division.
"correct."
"Haruto said there was no need to leave the door open for him."
Lisa pointed to the boundary strike device next to her.
If the valley disappears and the world returns to normal, just use the solution ingot to open the door and return to the present world. There is no need to maintain the pretend operation of this space.
"As for your Second Division's plan... I have collected all the heaven-given weapons of the Shifengin family at my place. Remember to ask Captain Yoruichi to come to the Eighth Division to pick them up later."
"well?"
"Can't you just leave it to us?"
Urahara Kisuke was stunned for a moment.
——This was the first time he showed surprise in action.
"The Eighth Division needs to register them in the register to check their ownership, and the team's funds have been squandered by that Kyoryaku guy recently..."
"Urahara four seats, you understand what I mean."
"......yes."
Urahara Kisuke looked at Zuihou feebly while answering.
The meaning could not be clearer:
Why didn't you take the things away one step ahead... Even if you bring one more thing, the Eighth Division Team would have robbed you of a lot of money——
These are all sources of funding to support his research!
————
Same place.
Naruki City, City Cemetery.
Just nine minutes after Lisa and the others returned to the present world——
"despair."
Familiar boundary-traveling doors opened layer by layer.
Haruto's upper body is no longer even tattered clothes, he is running completely shirtless and semi-naked, and with Anhetou on his back... this image is unimaginable in the cemetery. , if someone sees you anywhere, you have to call the police immediately.
but.
Haruto is in very good condition.
Although the remaining amount of spiritual pressure is still pitifully small, the intensity is even much higher than before departure.
After absorbing and merging the entire Call Valley, Soul King Posuke was activated to an unprecedented extent: the concentration of spiritual pressure that Haruto could compress has completely reached the peak of third-level spiritual power; his own strength has also just entered the fourth-level state. , directly reaching the limit of this stage.
If it weren't for the poor individual strength of Qinghun, with this wave of gains, Haruto might be able to be sent directly into the realm of second-class spiritual power.
This trip can be said to be fruitful.
However, in terms of mood, Haruto did not show any happy emotions——
The power of the Missing Bead is completely exhausted, and the Agado Haruto is carrying... the few memories of the Missing Bead are probably not going to last long.
"despair."
"despair."
Haruto walked slowly among the heavy tombstones, his eyes scanning all the words engraved on the surface.
"did you find it?"
This is not the first boundary-crossing door that Haruto has opened. Haruto has already searched all the cemeteries in Naruki City and surrounding areas in a similar way.
This is the last place——
"..."
The forward steps stopped.
"found it."
"Sooner than expected."
"I am still very efficient, and I must complete the things I promised as soon as possible."
Haruto lit a ray of light at his fingertips.
"...What does it say?"
Before he could continue his move, the quiet evening breeze blew away the little dust on the surface of the tombstone.
"Agata Asuna."
"Anheduo Tianjing's wife...your husband's one looks a little newer, and it's right next to your tombstone."
"Well, it seems that he couldn't stay with me after he left."
"Maybe in Soul Society?"
".....Yes."
"..."
The gentle evening breeze stopped.
"Can you still remember my name?"
"I can live a long time, and I can remember your name for a long time too... Maybe in Soul Society, I can still see souls similar to yours--"
Haruto's voice was full of tenderness and comfort.
"For example... your child."
"... Will it?"
"I think it will, after all, you like children so much."
"... If it will, that would be great."
"......"
"Agata?"
".."
"...... Miss Asuna?"
"."
When Haruto turned around, the weight of his soul had unknowingly become zero.
"......"
"Goodbye."
Haruto stood quietly in front of Asuna's grave.
His words just now were by no means comforting.
Because on the stone platform in front of "her" and Agata Tenkyo's grave, there were two bouquets of flowers that had not yet fallen in the autumn; the name card placed in the middle of the bouquet was a name that Haruto had been looking for for some time:
Ginjo Kūgo.
The Shinigami agent wanted by Soul Society, the founder and leader of "XCUTION".
As for the person who gave the other bouquet of flowers later...
Aura Michihane.
That's right.
The holder of the Soul King's Chain.
——Asuka Asuna, old name...
Aura Michihane.
She was the biological mother of Aura Michihane who died from a Hollow attack during childbirth.
————
Soul Society, the headquarters of the Kidō.
"Captain-in-Chief!"
"I saw it, no need to make a fuss."
The space of the Kōgu, which was aimed at the faraway Kōgu, was collapsing rapidly at the other end of the Kidō cannon that was already accumulating spiritual pressure.
No.
If it was just collapsing, Soul Society would still need to take some measures to deal with the space fragments that fell into the real world or Soul Society.
The current situation is more like Kōgu was directly absorbed by some force.
However...
Including the captain-in-chief, everyone present chose to ignore this.
"Captain Hikifune."
