Chapter 258 Rejection of the Lingwang Palace (7K)

The Zero Squadron is not part of Seireitei's establishment.

Not even in Seireitei.

But as soon as they arrived, they immediately turned against customers and seized the dominant position.

However, Yamamoto Genryusai, who always valued identity and status, sat back and ignored their gesticulating and pointing behavior, and even showed some guilt and remorse.

After all, under his leadership, the Seireitei was defeated.

This time.

Fortunately, they managed to reach the limits of the Quincy's movement.

But what about next time?

The reason why this time ended so hastily.

One was that Naruto had caught their traces and they had to show up.

Another reason.

This attack is just a test for them.

A test of Seireitei.

As for the result, the Quincy knew the Seireitei and the Gotei 13's ins and outs, but the Shinigami hadn't fully figured out their abilities yet.

Holy words, capturing the swastika, some ability to change the body shape

I know that they have more than twenty cadres whose abilities have reached the captain level, or are infinitely close to the captain level.

besides

I no longer understand anything.

"That's so arrogant." Sui Feng gritted her teeth. She had never been used to people bossing around, especially these people.

In front of the commander-in-chief whom he respects.

In front of his respected Captain Uzumaki

Didn't you really take them seriously?

"I don't know how amazing you are, but the Gotei 13 managed to protect the Seireitei with great difficulty."

"You are so disrespectful."

The wind blew gently.

"It's really noisy." The man holding the nose of the plane curled his lips impatiently, turned around in a flash, and while speaking, he raised his hand and grabbed the Broken Bee.

And at the moment when he instantly brought up the wind.

There was a "click".

The chains also moved together.

When he raised his hand, he wrapped it around his wrist, grabbed it, and held it in mid-air.

Broken Bee looked up in shock.

So fast

What's going on?

With his own reaction, he could only barely catch up.

Is this Team Zero?

The aircraft head's eyes stayed on the chain at his wrist, he turned his head and looked at Naruto: "What a good reaction."

"He is truly the most unexpected god of death in history."

Naruto ignored him, just pulled the chain and broke his hand flat: "Let's talk, don't think about taking action."

"Smash Bee is also the captain after all."

"Even if my status is not higher than yours, I won't be lower than you."

The stinky face on the front of the plane became even uglier.

"The captain of Kirin Temple will also be frustrated sometimes." Uozhihua Lie covered his mouth and laughed softly.

The aircraft head curled his lips and muttered: "I am Lie's teacher."

"You have learned from Lie, brat, you should respect me more."

Naruto stretched out his hand a little, and the chains scattered into ashes and were annihilated, without paying any attention to him.

Just turned his head to the side.

The woman with long black hair and straight hair who had been giving orders from the very beginning, while they were talking, her spiritual pressure went away, and then came back before they finished speaking.

She went to Seireitei and brought some things out.

These are the people she said she wanted to take away by name.

Those reiatsu

They were the most seriously injured in that battle.

"Shiha Petrel", "Kuchiki Byakuya", "Abarai Renji" and "Kuchiki Rukia".

Each of them is wrapped in a golden ball with a skylight.

The long, straight black woman raised her head and said softly: "Almost all the people we want to take away are here."

She glanced at Naruto and continued: "The only one left is that boy Kurosaki Ichigo."

"He seems to be in the present world?"

Yamamoto Genryusai nodded his head, turned his head to look at Zaifeng, and winked.

The captain of the Second Division immediately understood what he meant.

This means that he should contact the 13th Division himself and call Kurosaki Ichigo.

As soon as she turned around, she was about to leave.

Naruto stepped in front of her.

Zaihou hit Naruto's abdomen with her head. Her height was barely enough to reach here.

"Naruto." Her head hurt a little from the hit, and she raised her head with a confused expression.

Naruto grabbed her collar and put it in front of him. He looked at the balls beside the long, straight black woman and the people in the balls: "There is no rush to invite Kurosaki Ichigo."

"These people."

"The injuries are extremely severe, and their bodies cannot be easily separated from the Seireitei."

The long, straight black woman raised her hand, hooked her index finger, and curled her hair. Her tone was as scornful as Qilin Temple's: "I want to take them away, of course for their consideration."

"Kirinji Temple said that Captain Unohana is not very talented in the return path."

"With your power, I'm afraid it will be difficult to cure them."

Naruto said calmly: "I can."

As he spoke, he raised his hand, and a ball of golden spiritual power surged out from his palm, emitting a bright and gentle light.

Full of life.

He has a unique talent for healing.

He doesn't even need to study, and his instincts are unmatched by ordinary Shinigami who have been studying the "Return Path" for hundreds of years.

The plane named "Kilin Temple" tilted its head and looked around, with a look of surprise in its eyes, and said in a loud voice: "This is not an ordinary Hui Dao ability."

"Such a strong vitality."

"It's much more powerful than my hot spring."

"And it's safe and controllable."

The monk smiled and shook his head: "These guys have more than just physical injuries."

"And the Zanpakutō."

"They need to go to the Soul King's Palace."

"In that place, there are super spiritual techniques that are different from ordinary ghosts. Using those techniques, they can repair their Zanpakutō."

As he spoke, he paused.

"Furthermore, the Quincy is probably more powerful than what you see now. Although we don't have anything to worry about, it's not a bad thing to be able to increase the immediate combat power."

"They're very talented."

“Their gifts have not yet been fully realized.”

"A trip to the Spirit King's Palace will only do them good."

Naruto asked again: "What about Kurosaki Ichigo?"

"Why does the Spirit King want to see him? Is it because he has the qualifications of a wedge?"

The monk stared at Naruto seriously, with an innocent look on his face and a serious expression: "It seems that you know a lot of great things."

"Is it because of that guy Aizen?"

"It's still because of the Shifengyuan family and the Shiba family."

Before Naruto could give a reply, he shook his head: "Forget it, these are not important."

"It doesn't matter how much information you have."

"It still won't affect the next plan."

"We need combat power. This is the will of Lord Soul King. He believes that Kurosaki Ichigo has different potential than you, but also has unlimited potential."

Such rhetoric again.

"The Will of the Spiritual King".

A long time ago, before he became a Shinigami, and when he had just become a Shinigami, Naruto had respect for the Soul King. After all, in textbooks and daily understanding, it was the Soul King who had always stabilized the Three Realms.

But as we learn more

His respect for the Spirit King became more and more eroded and even disappeared.

No matter the ordinary Shinigami, the captains of the Gotei 13, or even now, the Zero Division who naturally showed a condescending attitude in front of the Gotei 13, they all respected the Soul King.

It cannot change the fundamental fact that "the Spiritual King is just a poor boy who was imprisoned."

Naruto could not respect a person who was "imprisoned" and "without freedom".

This reason did not convince him.

"Kurosaki Ichigo is not a Shinigami." Naruto spoke, emphasizing this matter once again.

The monk's expression didn't change much, he was still serious and sincere: "So what do you want to do?"

"Whether he wants to or not, that's his business. We need to ask for his opinion." Naruto calmly said, "I don't think it's time for Soul Society to forcefully recruit him yet."

The monk looked at him, and their eyes met.

No anger, cold and calm.

"It's just like the rumors." The monk clapped his hands, "Lord Spirit King knew you would say that."

"He told me to respect your opinions."

He looked at Uzumaki Naruto curiously.

As one of the few people who can communicate with the Soul King, he noticed that the Soul King seemed ordinary to this, but his spiritual pressure was stronger and he had another soul in his body, so he could master two Zanpakutō and looked handsome. , a gentle boy who cares very much.

even

He cares about Uzumaki Naruto far more than that guy "Kurosaki Ichigo".

In the eyes of the monk, it is clear that "Kurosaki Ichigo" is even more special.

He has the qualifications to replace the "Spiritual King" and become a wedge in the three realms.

Apart from "Yhwach" he is the only one left.

Naruto said nothing, just waved his hand.

Nirvana immediately took out a communication device from his pocket.

Although the relationship between the two of them is not very harmonious, the atmosphere will even become tense when they meet.

Let’s talk about the level of tacit understanding.

Nirvana thought that she had a better understanding with Naruto than anyone else.

Jumping back and forth on the defensive line in Naruto's heart, trying to die but not dying, at most he would receive a few painless beatings and lose a few clones. The only one who could do such a thing was Niryuri. .

A few beeps and the connection went through.

Kurosaki Ichigo was sitting in the Japanese room, holding up a communication device: "Ah, it's Captain Nirvana, what can I do?"

What was displayed on the screen was his face.

But the voice that came out was an exaggerated and frivolous male voice.

Just hearing the first word, Niryuri's face immediately fell: "Urahara Kisuke, don't play this two-person Haori trick, it's really stupid and childish."

"Oh, Captain Nirvana noticed it right away." From behind Kurosaki Ichigo, a man stuck his head out.

Nie Yuli curled her lips and looked disgusted: "I'm not here to find you, so don't come out so arrogantly."

"Kurosaki Ichigo."

"Captain Uzumaki has something to tell you."

Kurosaki Ichigo looked serious and had a correct attitude: "Uncle Naruto, are you okay?"

"How is Seireitei doing?"

Naruto took the communication device from Niryuri's hand and replied with a smile: "I'm not bad, Seireitei is not bad either."

"The enemy has left."

"Now is the rare intermission."

Kurosaki Ichigo nodded. He could hear that there was something unsettling in these words.

"I'm looking for you now for one thing." Naruto continued, "The people from Team Zero are here. They want to take you to the Soul King Palace."

Kurosaki Ichigo was stunned.

Spiritual Palace?

He was deeply impressed by this place.

after all

The most powerful and impressive enemy "Aizome Sosuke" that I had encountered before, he had been planning for so long that he even wanted to sacrifice the entire "Karakuza Town" in order to create the "King Key" and go to the Soul King Palace.

"Me? Why?" Ichigo Kurosaki was puzzled and confused.

Naruto said calmly: "Because the Soul King thinks that the Invisible Empire is a difficult opponent, he wants to have more and more reliable power."

"And you have potential."

"So they want the people from the Zero Division to take you to the Soul King Palace, and then stimulate your potential and make you stronger."

"They want you to participate deeply in this war."

Ichigo Kurosaki was stunned and blinked.

Participate deeply in this war?

"Uncle Naruto, what do you think?" Ichigo Kurosaki thought and threw the question over.

Naruto shook his head and said firmly and decisively: "I don't recommend you to come."

The monk tilted his head, his eyes were still straightforward, but he had a more lively look, and I don't know what he was thinking.

"Why?" Kurosaki Ichigo asked.

Naruto said gently: "Because this is not your responsibility."

"This is a war between the God of Death and the Extermination Master."

"You are just a human."

"And the God of Death is not weak enough to ask a boy who is not even eighteen years old for help."

"Although we are not in an advantageous position at the moment, we are not at such a disadvantage either."

Kurosaki Ichigo was silent and thinking.

Urahara Kisuke leaned over and added fuel to the fire: "The nature of this incident is completely different from the last incident."

"I also support Naruto's opinion."

"This is our war."

Naruto ignored him and did not show any good face to him because of his few kind words.

He holds a grudge.

"Then listen to Uncle Naruto." Kurosaki Ichigo took a deep breath and nodded, "But."

"If you need me, I hope Uncle Naruto will not hesitate to ask."

"I will do my best to do what I can."

Naruto smiled and nodded.

Kurosaki Ichigo clenched his fists with a complicated expression.

In fact, from the bottom of his heart, he really wanted to participate in such things. He was a little boy who longed to be needed.

However

Uncle Naruto and the store manager said so, and he couldn't find any reason to refute.

He could only agree to what they said.

Naruto stretched out his hand and was about to hang up the communication device.

"Wait a minute!" Urahara Kisuke's head leaned over again, making an exaggerated expression and shouting loudly, "I have something to say."

Several people looked at him.

"The methods of the Quincy are very troublesome." He raised his hand and pressed his hat, and his expression and tone suddenly became serious and serious.

"Whether it's the way they come and go."

"Or the means by which they can seize Bankai."

"However, I have found some inspiration to counter this method, and the cooperation of the 12th Division is needed next."

"I need some materials and time, and I can do it."

His words were interrupted.

Interrupted by Kurotsuchi Mayuri's disdainful and sarcastic laughter.

"Urahara Kisuke, is this what you want to say?" He grinned, licked his lips, narrowed his eyes, and a fierce look leaked out.

Urahara Kisuke was stunned, raised his head, and stared at Kurotsuchi Mayuri with an incredible look in his eyes.

He realized what this sentence meant: "You, have you started?"

Kurotsuchi Mayuri took out a potion bottle from his arms: "Start?"

"No, it's over."

"Whether it's the shadow field of the Quincies, their coordinates, the passwords they set for space, and the way they travel"

"Or the ability to seize Bankai, how to reject their ability, or even take back your own Bankai"

"I have solved it."

Urahara Kisuke was surprised and widened his eyes.

Solved?

This.

Wouldn't the speed be a bit too fast.

He admitted that Kurotsuchi Mayuri was a very good R\u0026D personnel, otherwise he would not have gone through so much trouble to pull this person out of the maggot nest.

But he also knew where Kurotsuchi Mayuri's qualifications and talents were.

"Don't look at me like that." The fierce light in Kurotsuchi Mayuri's eyes was completely oozing out, as sharp as a sword, but the tone of his voice was proud, excited, and even trembling slightly, "Urahara Kisuke, don't always think you are smarter than me."

"Don't always think you can be one step ahead of me in everything."

"I won this time."

Urahara Kisuke smiled bitterly: "It seems that I am indeed a little slow after being away from the Soul Society for so long."

"Congratulations, Captain Kurotsuchi."

Kurotsuchi Mayuri sighed.

Congratulations?

That's not the reaction he wanted to see.

When he won, just a casual congratulation?

"Don't slack off, Urahara Kisuke." Kurotsuchi Mayuri held back for a long time and uttered a sentence from his mouth, "If you keep going like this, the distance between you and me will only get farther and farther."

He was high and mighty.

Urahara Kisuke nodded, but no matter how he looked or felt, this person's emotions didn't seem to be affected at all.

This made Kurotsuchi Mayuri angrily press the button to stop communication.

"It's just as the Soul King predicted." The monk whispered at the moment of stopping.

Naruto looked at him.

From Kagura's mind's perception, this guy was telling the truth from beginning to end.

But for some reason.

He instinctively felt that this guy who looked like a monk didn't have any good ideas in his mind.

"In that case, let's go." The monk waved his hand.

Naruto called out: "Wait a minute."

"Where's Kenpachi Zaraki?"

"Don't take him with you?"

That guy was also seriously injured. He was defeated by the fake "Yhuhabach" in one move. He should still be unconscious now.

And

In terms of "potential", Kenpachi Zaraki's qualifications are probably above everyone present.

He can serve as the captain without mastering the "Shikai".

If he masters the "Shikai", if he masters the "Bankai", if he releases all his self-sealed spiritual pressure, I dare not imagine how strong he can be.

Even if he is not as good as Yamamoto Genryusai.

He will not be much weaker than guys like Haschwalth and Valkyrie.

The monk's eyes widened and he shook his head: "No need."

"Kenpachi Zaraki's path is not in the Soul King Palace, but in the Soul Society."

The man with the airplane haircut followed up: "Rie, you should know what you want to do."

Unohana Retsu didn't speak and lowered his head.

Naruto's eyes stayed on her.

Yamamoto Genryusai was in deep thought.

This depressing and dull atmosphere gradually enveloped Unohana Retsu, low and solemn. The captain of the fourth division, who was always gentle and had a gentle smile on his face, had a gloomy face at this moment.

Naruto looked at her

He felt that he was suddenly very far away from her.

He felt that he had gone to the Soul King Palace and would never see her again after he came back.

He felt that she was ready to die and was about to end her life.

"Wait until I come back, okay?" Naruto took a deep breath and subconsciously pulled out the vortex, dispersing its power and disrupting the atmosphere.

Unohana Retsu looked up.

The two looked at each other, and Naruto repeated the sentence with a firm tone: "Wait for me to come back."

"Both Captain Unohana and Captain Zaraki are very important to me."

"I don't want to lose you."

Unohana Retsu smiled: "It's as if one of us is going to leave you."

Naruto's eyes were serious: "Promise me."

Unohana Retsu didn't speak.

"Trust Naruto." Yamamoto Genryusai said, "Retsu, believe him."

Naruto may just have a hunch.

But as an old friend who has been with each other for thousands of years, watching this "Kenpachi" step by step, becoming the current captain of the medical team, knowing her mental journey and all the causes and consequences.

So he also knew what the monk was hinting at, and what Unohana Retsu decided at that moment to let himself do.

Yamamoto Genryusai never denied that he was a cold-blooded person.

If it was a critical moment, and Soul Society was about to be destroyed in the next moment, then he would definitely agree with the unspoken decision.

But just like what Naruto said to Ichigo Kurosaki just now, things haven't gotten that tense yet.

He didn't want to see any of his old friends or juniors lose.

Kirinji scratched his head and glanced at Naruto: "Although I don't like this strong little guy."

"But since he has done so many unexpected things."

"Let's trust him for once."

Unohana Retsu nodded: "Okay, I promise you."

"I won't do that before you come back."

"But if the situation is urgent enough for me to do that, I will go."

Naruto reached out and grabbed the wind and waves: "I won't let things develop to that extent."

His tone was firm.

The monk tilted his head and was still looking at Naruto.

So.

Why does the Spirit King care so much about this kid? Is it because of his determination?

But most strong people don't lack "determination".

Naruto walked towards the "Heavenly Pillar".

The monk laughed: "That brat, we can't use the Tenju Chariot yet."

"It doesn't have the function of returning to the Soul King Palace by itself."

"We need to rely on some other power."

Naruto was puzzled, but still followed his footsteps, walked out of the Soul Society, and came to a familiar place.

Shiba House.

The Shiba family was stripped of the title of "nobles".

"What a trouble." Shiba Kukaku tutted and waved his hand, "But everything has been prepared long ago."

"If you want to use it, please feel free to do so."

Naruto looked up and looked at the cannon barrel that stood tall and soared into the sky in the Shiba mansion.

Rely on this thing?

But isn't this thing used to set off fireworks?

"Captain Naruto, since you already know about the five nobles." Shiba Kukaku reached out, patted the cannon barrel, and said softly, "Then I can tell you more details."

"Do you know why the Shiba family was still able to occupy a seat in the Central Forty-Six Chambers after being stripped of their title?"

Naruto shook his head.

"Because they can only strip away the so-called 'noble' title." Shiba Kūkaku looked down on this so-called "noble" thing, and had no good feelings for it at all, "but they can't strip away what the Shiba family controls."

"The Shiba family is the only family in Soul Society that controls the way to the Soul King Palace."

"That's it."

The Tianzhu chariot can be put into the barrel of the gun just right, and it fits perfectly. Obviously, setting off fireworks is just Shiba Kūkaku's side job, and going to Soul King's Palace is the real purpose of this thing.

One shot fired.

The sound is loud, which means that the impact generated is also extremely powerful.

The tail clouds drag, almost dividing the sky.

After a blink of an eye, the "Tianzhu Chariot" fell to the ground. However, the safety and comfort of this thing are guaranteed. At least Naruto in the pillar did not feel dizzy. It was just a slight impact and he would soon be able to Slow down.

The portal opens.

The monk pushed Naruto out: "We are here."

"This is the Spirit King's Palace."

"Before this, no Shinigami other than the Zero Squadron and the five nobles have ever logged in here."

Naruto looked into the distance.

The Soul King's Palace was not as grand as he imagined. It was also a prison used to hold "the wedge that stabilizes the Three Realms". How could it be like a real palace?

On the high platform in the center, there are pillars like "Tianzhu Chariot" floating.

Guarding this huge pillar-like building are five empty islands.

"You guessed it right." The aircraft head came over quietly and instantaneously, as if wanting to scare Naruto who was focusing on observing the surrounding environment. She spoke quietly with a cold tone, "That cocoon-like building is the main hall."

"Lord Spirit King is right there."

"Then those five empty islands floating around are our city."

"Next, I will take these little guys to my palace. Uzumaki Naruto, do you want to come with me?"

Naruto turned his head to look at him, his face calm, not at all frightened: "You seem to be good at healing?"

"Did I go to your palace just to heal my wounds?"

"Then I guess I don't need it."

The battle with Hasward was almost the most serious battle in which he had been injured in all the years he had been a god of death.

Until now, I still have a very painful numbness in my body.

but

This is just a consumption of physical and spiritual energy. Even if those injuries have not been specially treated, they are now completely healed by the body's inherent self-healing ability.

"Then go to my palace." The other man, who had been silent and did not speak, finally spoke, wearing a white vest and blue sunglasses, "I think you will be very interested in my palace."

"Introduce yourself."

"My name is Nimeiya Wang Yue."

"He is the creator of the Zanpakutō."

Naruto looked at him with sharp eyes.
