Chapter 89
"Dang!"
————
"call!"
The howling cold wind swept past.
The Seireitei only dropped a small amount of snow that melted away as soon as it hit the ground, and the world they arrived at was completely shrouded in white.
"This is......"
There was a murmur of shock and surprise.
"This world."
The fifth-year students, whom I had only seen in books, were looking at the scenery far and near in a daze.
"..."
Haruto is actually similar.
The soul burial internship lasted only two days, and the "modern" experience he personally experienced in fifth grade was only that long.
"I am back again."
Haruto muttered silently in his heart.
This world is not reality.
This is a world that is completely different from the reality Haruto knows: the period when the Soul Society Gotei Thirteen Team was just established, and the country of "Japan" in the current world is in the early days of the Shogunate era.
More than eight hundred years later, we entered the modern society known to Haruto.
There is no problem with the above.
But in the current modern society, in the next hundred years or so, there has not been much progress in terms of technology or people's livelihood——
This is somewhat contrary to Haruto's materialistic world view.
certainly.
After all, this is a world where God (Spiritual King) really exists, so materialism is not so reliable.
By the way.
Although the cutting-edge technology of the "next door" Nishisha Bureau is not as good as that of the Toshibo Bureau, they have done a good job in converting military personnel into civilians. Riton, who is at the same level as Seireitei, seems very high-end... and Haruto Compared with the city in my memory, it can only be described as "classical".
"Snapped."
Nanao patted Haruto on the shoulder - because the concentration of spiritual beings in this world is very low, the Shinigami in the soul state can fly at will.
The disadvantage is that the speed is not very fast. Compared with running wildly on the ground, it is more efficient to jump on the telephone pole: it can avoid unnecessary obstacles, and ensure that the speed will not be too slow, and it can also reduce the number of people who are spiritually sighted. Possibility of discovery——
There are always a small number of humans who have the gift of being able to see souls.
"What are you thinking about?"
"It's not easy to come here, do you want to buy some souvenirs to take home?"
Haruto found an excuse to excuse himself.
"...It's going to cause a riot."
Nanao did not directly reject Haruto's proposal.
After all, the abundance of materials in this world, especially in terms of food, is far more luxurious than in Soul Society.
Nanao was also very moved.
However, considering that this event was taking place under the eyes of the 13th Division and the teachers, Nanao felt that it was better to be cautious.
"Then let's find a chance next time and ask Caihua for help."
The small boundary door of Kurutani's house is still very useful in these small places.
"Um!"
This time Nanao nodded simply.
"Wait......"
"What's wrong?"
Haruto looked at the city's horizon from afar.
"Didn't you say that the Death God of Division 13 is waiting here at the Realm Crossing Gate? Why didn't I see a single figure?"
Haruto frowned slightly.
"Um......"
"We have so many teams, the God of Death shouldn't be able to allocate them, right?"
Nanao raised her glasses on her nose and replied.
"I made a rough estimate before coming here. The number of soul burial teams heading to the present world should be around 40."
"There are only 20 official Death Gods."
"Did Dean Mitarai say hello in advance and ask the seniors to help classes other than Class 1?"
After hearing Nanao's explanation, Haruto thought for a moment and nodded in approval:
"......Probably."
After all, their sixth-year class has long been known as the Monster Room, and those twenty team-level Shinigami, grouped together, is something that Haruto can solve with just one finger.
Will Haruto need their help?
That was really the old lady getting into bed——
It made me laugh.
"I hope I'm not overly concerned."
Haruto raised his index finger, and the flowing spiritual pressure began to gather towards the top.
"Slap your toes to chase the sparrow!"
The brilliance of a spark is fleeting.
Because of the existence of Kuliu, Haruto did not use his toes to chase birds when passing through the boundary, for fear that one would accidentally be swallowed by the boundary; now that he came to an unfamiliar land, he naturally opened his perception network immediately.
As for the chants that have been shrunk again...
Not to mention the mere intermediate binding method of No. 58, Haruto now doesn't even need the first half of the chant to release the Thunder Roar Cannon of No. 63.
"..."
The distance between a slapping toe and a bird is not that far.
After this technique was modified by Haruto, it was mainly used to warn against sudden attacks, and was not good at detecting enemies from long distances.
Currently, Slap Toe Chaser's enhanced perception has not detected any Soul Reaper's spiritual pressure.
"Nanao, how are you doing with your toe-slapping sparrow training?"
"Don't expect me to know it. I must have known it a long time ago, but the version I practiced is still the modified version you taught me."
"......All right."
"It would be great if Yongin were here" - given Haruto's emotional intelligence, the second half of the sentence is definitely a forbidden sentence that cannot be uttered.
"By the way, where is this place?"
Haruto suddenly thought of a very serious question.
"Um......"
Nanao took out the Hell Butterfly and checked the message.
"The current name is Naruki City."
To the God of Death, the Hell Butterfly is basically equivalent to a less convenient mobile phone.
Because Haruto was late this morning, his Hell Butterfly did not record any more information except the round-trip coordinates.
"Naruki City? Never heard of it... As long as it's not Karakura Town."
Haruto actually felt a little familiar.
But this thing couldn't be explained in detail, because it might be the place name of a real city in his memory, so Haruto simply gave up looking into it.
"Is it considered a place of heavy spirituality?"
This is also an important consideration.
"There are only a few Chongling Lands in the world. Even if the Thirteenth Division's world-transmitting gate can be reached directly, the academy will not let us practice in such a place."
Nanao sighed and returned.
"also......"
Before he could say the word "yes", Haruto changed the subject and said:
"Nanao, your complaints today were a bit sharp."
"It's obvious that you've been asking stupid questions... Qing, you look a little tired. Is it because you didn't sleep well due to dealing with Byakuya's side?"
Nanao asked with some concern.
"...Well, I rested pretty well, maybe because I was a little exhausted."
Haruto was pretty sure that he had no acting talent, so at times like this he had no choice but to act true and false.
"Then let's end it as soon as possible. Anyway, there won't be no chance in the future."
"good."
Haruto nodded.
At this time, the three people in the fifth-year group who had been left silently aside finally got a chance to communicate.
"Soul Burial."
Haruto turned around and explained to the three Katakuras.
"The textbook has already explained it very clearly. Let me give you a demonstration first."
Haruto pointed to the top of a telephone pole six kilometers away and said:
"Did you see that soul?"
"......ah?"
Togakure and Katakura replied blankly.
The farthest visual distance for humans on a flat surface is twenty-five kilometers, and if you want to clearly distinguish human-sized objects, a distance of about two kilometers is basically the limit... Ordinary Shinigami are different from ordinary people in this regard. No difference.
"Saw it!"
Wuli, who was wearing goggles, nodded vigorously - the thing hanging on his face was obviously some kind of spiritual tool that could enhance vision.
"It doesn't matter if you didn't see clearly. You two can just listen to what he has to say afterwards."
"Bah!"
Aim at the tip of your finger far away.
The white-blue halo that shone for a moment was inconspicuous in this snow-covered world.
"..."
Togakushi and Katakura didn't react at all. They didn't understand what they found. Only the pupils under Gori's lenses were unknowingly open like his mouth.
"!?"
"There are three situations of soul burial."
Haruto continued preaching as if nothing had happened.
"First, for those beings who are or have just transformed into Hollows, just use Kidou or shallow blows to break their masks."
The transformation of the soul into the void is irreversible.
If you want to reduce losses, the best way is to interrupt this process with a beheading... This is also the stage where the virtual force is the weakest.
The Hollow that Haruto killed just now should be a certain circuit worker who was electrocuted due to improper operation. His strong resentment—it’s hard to say whether it was directed at his work, his boss, or something else—made him linger here for a long time, and finally began to Transformation towards virtuality.
