Chapter 262 Flesh, Light, Ice and Fire (7K)

Naruto recognized himself.

He was not a god of death, but before, he chose to become a god of death in a daze, just like when he was in the ninja world, because of the environment he was born in, he was destined to become a Konoha ninja.

However.

After learning some things about him.

He made a judgment.

When he was in Konoha, he refused to become a ninja.

And at this moment, he did not refuse to become a god of death, he was willing to become a god of death.

After getting Naruto's affirmative answer, Nimeiwu Wangyue raised his hand happily: "Then."

"Welcome to my stage!"

"Little Naruto."

"Next you will see the most powerful forging technique in history."

In response to his rock-and-roll gesture, there was a burst of enthusiastic cheers.

"Come on!"

Figures rushed over, jumping high from all directions.

They were the female Zanpakuto that he had seen in the nightclub-style building before.

Their identities are not just the "little cuties" in Nimeiwu Wangyue's heart.

Still

They fell heavily to the ground, and some of them rolled into a ball, showing their unskilled and shameful behavior. However, under the training of Wang Yue of Ermeiwu, they performed it openly and proudly.

"Ermeiwu Guards--"

"I am here."

Kuroma turned his head away, not wanting to watch.

Naruto was fine, he was calm and composed.

The advantages of his looks and figure were fully demonstrated at this moment.

No matter how shameful the action was, it was still quite beautiful when performed by them.

But.

So far, there was no further action.

Wang Yue of Ermeiwu leaned forward and pointed at the "Shallow Fighter" behind Naruto: "Not just them."

"And you."

He stretched out his hand and grabbed it.

The Shallow Fighter's embodiment instantly dissipated, turning into a stream of refined spiritual power, flying like an arrow or a catapult.

Speedy and sharp.

This power was somewhat beyond his expectations.

Cutting his palm, blood dripped.

This beam of light passed him, nailed to the ground, and vibrated with its tail.

"What an amazing power." Nimeiwu Wangyue said softly, tilting her head to look at Naruto.

The other members of the guards immediately took action.

The woman with a red cockscomb rubbed her hands, bent her waist like a flint to ignite, and opened her mouth to spit out in front of her, in the center of the open space. What came out was not air, but flames, blazing and extremely hot high-temperature flames.

It was a fire-type Zanpakutō.

Judging from the performance.

It is probably not weaker than the one in Shiba Isshin's hand.

The yellow twin-tailed woman stretched out her hand, but it was not her limbs that moved, but the pair of very agile ponytails, which anthropomorphically clamped the beam of light that was still trembling on the ground.

That was one of the main materials for forging "Zanpakutō".

The woman with a bandage on her face, who looked very depressed, raised her foot and retreated to the corner, opened her mouth, pinched one of her teeth without hesitation, and pulled it outward, and it was torn off with blood.

With a pull of both hands, the spiritual power released it, and it suddenly turned into a very exaggerated forging hammer.

The hammer head was very large and the hammer handle was very long.

Wang Yue of Ermeiwu took off the decorations on his body, removed those that were left on his body to cover the shell of his true self, and showed his true self.

In the small pair of eyes under the sunglasses, there was compassion for the souls of countless "Zanpakuto".

He took the hammer.

This is a very unreasonable forging hammer.

Naruto has been to the Iron Country and has seen the blacksmith shops in this world. He knows that although the two worlds are somewhat different, the habits of blacksmiths are similar.

They prefer to use small hammers, so that they can operate more delicately. Only when forging rough pieces, they may use slightly larger hammers.

But it will never be so big.

So.

Ermeiwu Wangyue swung the hammer hard and hit the light column caught by the twin ponytails.

That was an embryo that had already taken shape, and the outline of the knife could be vaguely seen.

But this hammer went down.

There was a loud clang.

It failed to hit the knife, but hit hard on the anvil.

It missed!

It was not that Ermeiwu Wangyue's skills were sparse and the hammer missed, but that he did not hit it.

That "shallow hit" can be seen but not touched.

At least

With Ermeiwu Wangyue's existence, it cannot be touched.

He realized this and immediately turned his head: "It seems that only this material is not enough."

"It seems"

"Other materials are needed."

"Little Naruto, this is something born from your call and thoughts, do you have any opinions?"

Naruto stared at the knife-shaped light.

It was the creation of his own soul

Even if it contained some "Asura" power, it was incomplete and incomplete, only half.

So, it must be completed.

He reached out and grasped the hilt of Kurama's sword.

The fox of the same name lowered his head and watched his movements.

"Although a lot of things have happened in these hundreds of years." Naruto said softly, slowly pulling out the sword, his tone calm, gentle and powerful, reminiscing about the past, "With your help, I can get to where I am today."

"You are very strong now." Kurama shook his head, "Old man"

"Instead, it looks like a burden."

It didn't feel this way before.

But recently.

Whether it is Uchiha Madara and Kaguya Otsutsuki in the Ninja World, or the enemies that he met after coming to this world, Valkyrie and Haschwald.

They are all existences that he cannot solve.

Unless he borrows Naruto's power and performs "Bankai".

The gap between him and Naruto also spreads out non-stop and shockingly at the same scale as the "chasm".

"How can it be a burden." Naruto shook his head, raised the knife horizontally, and stood on his chest, "We are companions, we are one."

"Your power is my power, and my power is your power."

"And now."

"I still have to borrow your power."

"Let's go, Kurama."

The fox tilted his head, not quite sure why he would use the power of "Kuroma" in such a situation, but he honestly responded: "Of course no problem, Naruto."

This is the agreement between them.

Before using the power of Kurama.

Ask for Kurama's consent.

Even though Naruto's power is now so strong that he doesn't need to care about Jiu Lama's opinion.

He still does it.

The red light overwhelms the flames of the red-haired woman's Zanpakutō. She is not forging the sword now. She is still outputting flames, but it is weakened a little, so that the flames are not jumping so violently.

"You want to use my power, what are you going to do?" Jiu Lama agreed, and then raised his doubts.

Naruto whispered: "Of course, to complete the other half."

He waved the sword.

In the void, ripples flooded, and the power of Yin escape was running.

Something was created in the invisible.

It was a body.

Starting from the bones, nerves and flesh slowly grew, followed by skin meridians.

A complete human figure appeared in the blink of an eye.

The power of Yang escape followed closely.

"Plop", "Plop", the heartbeat sounded in this body.

Give life to tangible things.

Nimeiwu Wang Yue stared at this scene in disbelief.

The ability of "Kurama"

He didn't know, after all, this Zanpakutō was not forged by him, but the information of the Soul Society would be transmitted back to the Soul King Palace, and in the form it showed, it should not have such an incredible ability.

Creating life.

Not a "puppet" or a "soul".

It is life, real life.

Of course, although people with this ability are rare, they do exist.

It's just that "Shikai".

The Bankai of "Kurama" sword.

It really makes him look forward to it.

This body is alive, and he has life.

But for Naruto, this is not enough. This is just a more refined work of art that is not even as good as "Subaha".

It is not enough to become a body that matches his soul creation.

Naruto raised his other hand and placed it on his chest.

The spiritual power surged, drawing something from the body-

It is vitality.

The vitality that belongs to the Uzumaki clan and belongs to Uzumaki Naruto alone.

A small golden ball of light, the gem is dazzling, and it is so bright that it is beyond comparison.

Naruto threw it.

The life gem fell into this body and dissolved in water.

It melted.

A wonderful reaction immediately occurred on the body.

Ermeiwu Wang Yue stretched out his hand, his face heavy, and made full psychological preparations. He grabbed forward, and this body turned into a beam of light and flew towards him just like the shallow strike just now.

This made him feel relieved.

"Really, I thought such a thing could not be used as a material for forging a knife." He smiled and looked down. Although this body also turned into light, it was completely different from the rough blank just now.

Rough, disordered, and the shape still needs to be polished.

It needs to be carved more finely.

Or.

Ermeiwu Wang Yue tilted his head and stared at another knife blank that had already taken shape.

No.

This piece should not be worked on.

Instead, the piece that has been shaped should be worked on. It is formed in the shape of the god of death.

But the blond boy in front of him just chose to become the god of death.

"Lotus." He called a name.

The yellow-haired girl who held the knife blank with her ponytails tilted her head on the anvil: "Master?"

"Next, you have to use all your strength." He gently placed the irregular rough blank on the knife blank and hit it hard.

With a clang -

Precise, steady and powerful.

The knife blank was touched, it bent hard, and showed a little sign of fusion with the rough blank.

The fire splashed and was dazzling.

The excitement of Ermeiwu Wang Yue overflowed.

The material is rare and powerful, which also means that forging is extremely difficult.

After more than twenty hammers, the knife blank showed signs of complete twisting and fusion with the rough blank.

"Little Naruto, this makes me excited!"

He cheered.

"It makes me feel like I'm back to more than 2,000 years ago, when I forged the first Zanpakutō."

"You really surprised me."

"You really made me happy!"

The sound of the hammer hitting his head could not suppress his emotions and voice.

Naruto watched calmly from the side.

Kurama tilted his head. He was not interested in "forging iron". The sparks that splashed out were very beautiful, but after repeating it again and again, no matter how beautiful it was, it would become boring over a long period of time.

It jumped off Naruto's shoulder, approached the other embodied Zanpakutō that had nothing to do, and whispered about things related to "Swastika".

Although

To some extent, it also holds the power of "Swastika".

The "Swastika" of "Nine Lamas" works on it.

But after all, it was Naruto's swastika, not his own.

It wants, urgently, to have a swastika interpretation of its own, the swastika interpretation of "the fox hiding in the mirror".

The knife is being forged.

The surrounding water is constantly being taken in, and it is also constantly evaporating.

Seireitei.

"It's been three days." Yamamoto Genryusai raised his head in the seventh division team building, stared at the clock hanging on the wall, and sighed softly, "It's been so long since Naruto went to Soul King Palace."

He has moved here since the end of the war.

The first team's team building has not been repaired yet, so there is no time to deal with these tedious and trivial matters now.

The Seventh Division is the inner court escort team. The enemy has invaded the Seireitei, so...

As the captain, it makes sense for him to sit here.

"Captain, don't worry, it's the Soul King's Palace after all." Sui Feng answered immediately. She has been here all the time. She was already familiar with the environment of the Seventh Division. Now that the commander is here, she can stay here more legitimately.

"I'm not worried about him." Yamamoto Genryusai looked at her with a half-smile but shook his head, "I'm just worried."

"The Invisible Empire."

Jingraku Shunsui lowered his head and said in a dull tone: "I obtained the coordinates of the Invisible Empire from Captain Niryuri."

"but."

"Their guards are very tight, even Captain Nirvana's spiritual insects can't sneak in."

"Not to mention such a huge target as the God of Death."

Yamamoto Genryusai asked: "Where are they?"

During this period of time, he has been worrying about Unohana Retsu and Zaraki Kenpachi. These two guys have "fighting" engraved in their blood. If you don't pay attention, they will make real fire. If you don't pay attention, someone may hit them. die.

until today

Their battle finally enters the final chapter.

Zaraki Kenpachi seemed to have learned something.

He handed the two of them to Ukitake Jushiro, and he was able to take some time out to see what kind of preparations the Seireitei had made.

In the corner of the room, the Nirvana clone who kept writing and drawing in his notebook stood up and pointed to the ground: "It's already obvious."

"They are in the Seireitei."

"In the shadows."

"Those are a cunning bunch of guys."

Yamamoto Genryusai continued to ask: "What can Captain Nirvana do to deal with it?"

"Of course!" Nirvana grinned and stepped out from behind the table in an exaggerated manner, "I'm not an incompetent guy."

"Now."

"There are two ways."

"One is to take the initiative. Since we already know the coordinates of the invisible empire, we can just sneak into the shadows and attack them."

Regarding this method, Yamamoto Genryusai did not take a position.

but.

Almost as soon as he said it, he had already sentenced this method to death.

The power of Seireitei was already weaker than that of the Invisible Empire, but now Naruto and Team Zero have gone to Soul King Palace.

Even with themselves, the Gotei 13 were no match for the Invisible Empire.

Take the initiative?

This is called taking the initiative to die.

"The second method is to limit the shadows." Nirvana raised his hand, "They come and go in the shadows. This is an important reason why we can't catch ourselves among them."

"In that case."

"Then let there be no shadows in the Seireitei."

Yamamoto Genryusai tilted his head and stared at Nirvana with some doubts.

No shadow?

How to do this?

He must not have anyone's Zanpakutō or any Kidō that can do this.

Nirvana grinned and raised her hand higher: "I showed this thing to the leader of the Beijing Band."

"How do you say that?"

"He agreed."

Jingraku pressed down the brim of his hat and nodded reluctantly: "Although it is a bit exaggerated, this is indeed a good method."

"Exaggerated?" Yamamoto Genryusai twitched his lips, "Even a person like Shunsui can say exaggerated things."

"To what extent?"

Nirvana snapped her fingers.

There was a "click", like a switch turning on.

His body suddenly lit up. It was so bright that it was even a bit dazzling. It blocked out the sky and the sun. It illuminated him and his surroundings at a glance. The shadows were outside the light. , continues to exist.

"The best and most useful thing to eliminate shadows is a light!" Nirvana raised her other hand and cheered, "Just turn on the light!"

"If there is enough light, the shadow will disappear."

"Team 12 is ready."

"As long as you nod, Captain, these lights will light up in the Seireitei at any time."

"certainly."

"I remember that Captain Shifengyuan told Naruto a long time ago that no matter how bright the light is, as long as there is light, there will be shadows."

"There is no way to completely eliminate the shadow, so I also suggest it."

"Reserve a part of the Seireitei to project shadows, so that when the invisible empire invades, there will be only one entrance."

"We can at least keep track of their movements."

"It won't be like before, where the enemy breaks in without knowing anything."

Yamamoto Genryusai looked at Nirvana and nodded happily: "No wonder Shunsui said that."

"But it is indeed a very simple and useful method."

"Light?"

"Then do it."

Nirvana snapped his fingers to create a new clone, and the old one dispersed with a "bang", passing the message back.

After Yamamoto Genryusai's approval.

Lamps were hung one after another, above every corner and shadow in the Seireitei, even in the storage boxes.

Cultivating hell butterflies requires a claustrophobic and quiet environment, but now I am afraid that these poor little creatures will be wronged.

Two hours later.

Nirvana couldn't wait to complete this task. Only the original, destroyed team building was left without lights, leaving a huge shadow.

Invisible empire.

Yhwach sat on the throne, grinning as he looked at the Quincy who were gradually gathering.

This is his kingdom.

Even if.

There was a slight loss during the first attack and test, but it still did not affect the solid strength that had been accumulated for thousands of years.

"Your Majesty." Barrow came over and reported in a low voice, "Some changes have occurred in Seireitei."

Yhwach said nothing and looked at him with his head tilted.

Barrow continued: "The Shinigami set up lanterns in the Seireitei, lighting up almost the entire place, leaving only the ruins of the original 1st team building unlit. It was pitch black and there were a lot of shadows. "

Yhwach smiled contemptuously: "Barro, do you see it?"

"Of course, Your Majesty." Barrow said in a respectful voice, "The God of Death is tempting us, they think."

"We have no choice but to attack from that location."

Yhwach waved his hand.

Being able to see where the problem is is of course a great ability, but for him, what he needs is not only to have this ability, but also to be able to come up with solutions to the problem after seeing the problem. ability.

As a personal guard, Barrow understood what His Majesty meant: "My subordinates think it is better to act according to their ideas first."

"Let them really think we are as stupid as they think we are."

"Then start the attack again."

He paused.

"With His Majesty's greatness, there is no need to use such costly cleverness."

“But for ordinary humans like us who need to admire your brilliance to survive, this kind of humble cleverness can allow believers who bathe in your brilliance to achieve greater victory at a smaller cost. "

Yhwach smiled softly: "Barro, you speak much better than Hasward."

"These are the most sincere compliments from my subordinates." Barrow's face was serious and extremely serious.

Yhwach waved his hand and shook his head: "Then take action as you said."

"While Uzumaki Naruto is still in Soul King Palace, take them down in one fell swoop."

Barrow nodded and responded.

Ten minutes later, Invisible Empire, in front of the Gate of the Sun.

"How many of us are going to be the vanguard?" The man with a purple mohawk curled his lips, "Have the gods of death prepared to prevent the invasion of the Shadow Realm?"

"This is not good news."

"Do you want a few of us to deal with the entire Gotei 13?"

Barrow looked expressionless and stared at him: "Are you scared? Buzby?"

"Nonsense!" The man with the mohawk shook his head, his hair shaking as violently as his body, "How could you be afraid!"

"only."

"This kind of behavior is so risky."

"Did that guy named Uryu Ishida suggest it?"

He is a vengeful person.

It is very clear that when His Majesty announced that "Ishida Uryu" was the heir, he was the first, and almost the only one who did not hold back and openly vetoed it.

At this time, I got such a dangerous task again.

It's hard to believe that this wasn't intentional revenge.

"Of course not, this is my proposal to His Majesty." Barrow said softly, "We need to send some people who are strong enough to deal a heavy blow to the Death Gods, so that they believe that we can only use the Shadow Realm to pass there."

"I believe you."

Buzby clicked his tongue.

These words.

It's possible to believe it.

He thinks that his strength is not at the top among the Knights of the Star Cross, but he is definitely one of the outstanding ones.

"Since you said so." Buzby raised his hand and stared at his fingers firmly, "then I can't refuse your kindness."

"The guy who killed Hasward"

"It's Uzumaki Naruto, captain of the seventh division, right?"

"He is very strong and can kill Hasward and Valkyrie, but don't worry, I will definitely kill him and then hold his head as a congratulatory gift to His Majesty."

Barrow said nothing.

The news that Uzumaki Naruto was in Soul King Palace was not revealed.

Seireitei, outside the ruins of the first team building.

"Are you just waiting?" Rangiku sat under the light, staring at the shadows in the ruins, "It's really boring."

"We can't take the initiative to attack." Hitsugaya Toshiro shook his head, "This method is the best method we can choose now."

"Just wait"

"We only have one day of duty."

"Furthermore, the captain has promised to give you a chance to visit Ichimaru Gin after this time."

Ichimaru Gin.

This name, which she had treasured and kept in her heart for a long time, was suddenly mentioned by Toshiro Hitsugaya after many years, making her laugh from the bottom of her heart.

Goodbye opportunity.

But at this moment.

The shadows on the ruins of the first team began to squirm, rolling in an unnatural arc.

"They are coming." Hitsugaya Toshiro immediately stood up and looked into the distance. Of course, it doesn't seem to make any difference whether he stands up or not. He is still so small that he can't even reach Matsumoto Rangiku's waist.

Rangiku turned around, looked over, pulled out a flare from her chest, and released it into the sky.

It exploded with a bang.

In the bright day, a bright bouquet of purple and red flowers bloomed.

The person squirming in the shadows also came out.

Fuchsia hair appears first.

"Sure enough." He tilted his head, caught the spiritual pressure, and immediately looked over, "The God of Death set an ambush here."

Hitsugaya Toshiro held the handle of the knife: "The way you come and go has been cracked by us."

"It is absolutely impossible to launch another raid like the last one."

Buzby stuck out his tongue, made a face, spread his hands, and the spiritual pressure surged and gathered, and a small flame came out: "Since we already know how we will launch an attack, why do we only have this little power? "

"Only a brat like you."

"I'm very impressed with you."

"The Ice Captain who was insulted by Cangdu."

Hitsugaya Toshiro was unmoved by his words and slowly took out the knife: "Ignorant guy."

"Remember my name, I am the captain of the 10th Division, Toshiro Hitsugaya."

"Please call me Captain Hitsugaya."

Buzby grinned: "I am the Knights of the Star Cross!"

"Scorching Buzby!"

"It seems that we are very compatible."

Hitsugaya Toshiro lowered his head: "In the Seireitei, it is not easy to fight against a decent fire-type ability user."

"I hope you can give me some good experiences."

He took a deep breath.

"Swastika!"

"Daigurren Hyōrinmaru."

Buzby's eyes widened and he was a little surprised, but his body was still very sincere and he took out a star medal: "Are you too excited to fight against an opponent like me?"

"Captain Hitsugaya."

"You actually used swastika in front of me."

"You are so contemptuous of me!"
