The world of the Grim Reaper.

After being promoted to the captain of the fifth team, Chu Yang spent most of his time training himself, practicing the four basic techniques of slashing and walking ghosts.

The work of the Goban team is much easier than expected, and it is usually like a street runner, and the number of battles encountered is pitiful.

In fact, not only the fifth team, but even the eleventh team, which is specifically responsible for fighting, is also experiencing a decrease in the number of encounters.

Since the blue dye disappeared, such situations have occurred frequently, and Chu Yang felt that there should be a problem on the side of the void circle.

When Aizen left, the Broken Jade in his hand was unfinished, and he would definitely find a way to make the Broken Jade complete.

And to do this, a hard condition that can't be bypassed is the soul, and a large number of souls can make Bangyu complete.

Emptiness is also a soul, but a soul that is empty in the heart.

But for Bangyu, there is not much difference between the void, the god of death, and the soul of a human being.

Chu Yang guessed that a large number of voids were sacrificed to Honyu at all times, which led to a sharp decrease in the number of voids.

According to Rukia, the number of voids that appear in this world is also becoming much rarer, and she will not meet a single one in two or three weeks.

The anomaly of the Void Circle was reported to the Soul Court, and in the case that the 46th Central Room had not yet been rebuilt, it could only be handled by the chief captain Yamamoto Motoyanagi Shigekoku.

Old man Yamamoto's order to this was to stay put.

Some radical Grim Reapers, some of the Corpse Soul Realm, advocated entering the Void Circle to explore the cause of the Void's disappearance, and their requests were rejected by Old Man Yamamoto one by one.

"The Corpse Soul Realm needs to be kept stable."

This is the reason given by the old man Yamamoto.

Not only him, but most of the Grim Reapers, who have survived for a long time, have a common opinion.

The Void Circle is the enemy's territory, and there is no benefit for the Grim Reaper to fight there, especially with the uncertainty of indigo dyeing.

Mirror Flower Water Moon's ability is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and now in retrospect, it is still terrifying, and as a companion who has been fighting side by side with Aizen for a long time, the current Captain Reaper has almost all seen Mirror Flower Water Moon.

They fought Aizen and fell into disadvantage from the start.

All kinds of unfavorable circumstances are superimposed, and the old man Yamamoto will not agree to go deep into the void circle.

Even some of the Grim Reaper thought it was a good thing.

After all, the virtual is real, and the real is decreasing.

Chu Yang is just a newly appointed captain of the Grim Reaper, and his words carry the lightest weight of all captains, so his opinion will definitely not be cared about.

Retreating, Chu Yang proposed to go to the present world and look for the reason for the reduction of the void over there.

This request was granted.

That night, Chu Yang returned to the present world, and he asked Ichigo to deal with the house he lived in before, thinking that the other party would sell it, but he didn't expect to keep it.

There's not a lot of dust inside, and it looks like someone is always coming to clean it.

It's not Ichigo, it's Rukia.

Chu Yang had only been sitting for half an hour, when the entrance outside suddenly lit up, followed by the sound of the door opening.

"I ate too much dinner today, it's not good for the battle at all, what if I find out that I'm empty?"

"It's been a long time since I've seen nothingness, most of the people I usually meet are ordinary souls, I didn't even sweat, and I just took the sword to help them overdo it."

"Don't be careless, as a god of death, you must always be vigilant, and the void is more cunning than you think."

The two figures were arguing and walked towards the living room, and when the two saw Chu Yang on the sofa, their eyes immediately became glazed.

"Yang?!"

"Why are you here?"

Ichigo smiled in surprise and hurriedly rushed over, it had been a long time since he had last seen Chu Yang.

"There's a mission, stop by and see you, I might be here for a while."

Chu Yang explained with a smile.

"Task? What mission requires Captain Reaper to appear in person? ”

Rukia was very keen in this regard, and her eyes suddenly became sharp.

"Come, sit down and talk."

Chu Yang beckoned the two to sit down.

Ichigo obediently did it, and Rukia went to the kitchen to make a pot of tea, familiar with everything in the house, and seemed to have lived here for a long time.

Chu Yang asked, "Are all the rooms cleaned by Rukia?" ”

Rukia handed him a cup of tea, "It's not just me, Ichigo and the others will help clean up." ”

Ichigo continued, "Inoue-san, Chadu, Ishida, they come occasionally, and those from the Urahara store. ”

Chu Yang smiled: "Have you taken my family as a stronghold?" ”

Ichigo scratched his head embarrassedly.

Rukia nodded, "It's good to have a stronghold, everyone can sit down and discuss things without disturbing Ichigo's family." ”

"But if you want to stay back then, we'll change places and won't bother you."

Chu Yang shook his head and said: "There is no need for this, we will have to deal with a lot of places in the future, I just told you that I came back with a mission." ”

The two of them immediately stared at Chu Yang curiously.

"It's related to nothingness." Chu Yang sighed and said, "You should have also noticed that there is a lot less emptiness in this world. ”

"In fact, not only in the present world, but everywhere we can observe, the number of voids is rapidly decreasing."

"The Corpse Soul Realm thinks that there is a problem with the Void Circle, but Captain Yamamoto disagrees to go to the Void Circle to understand the reason."

Rukia's brow furrowed when she heard this, "Why?" ”

Chu Yang shrugged his shoulders and said, "Because the old man thinks that the risk is too great, and he also thinks that it may be a conspiracy of the blue dye, and deliberately lure the god of death to the void circle." ”

Rukia fell into deep thought.

Ichigo said, "So you're here, do you think there might be any clues in this world?" ”

"So to speak." Chu Yang secretly shook his head in his heart, not for sure, but for sure, Lan Dye would definitely do something to the present world.

Because his purpose is to make the King's Key, and then enter the Spirit King's Palace to kill the Spirit King.

The key to making Wang Jian requires 100,000 souls, as well as a heavy spiritual land that extends to a radius of one spirit.

The so-called spiritual land refers to "the peculiarity of spirituality in the present world", and the place changes with the times, and it is the most spiritual land in the present world where spiritual things are gathered.

Kuza Town is the place of heavy spirits.

"Is there anything we can do to help you?"

"I don't have a clue yet, so I don't need it yet."

"So you're idle right now?"

"I don't want to admit it, but it's true."

Ichigo's eyes lit up after hearing this, and he said excitedly, "Then come to a fight with me, I want to know how strong you are now." ”

Chu Yang thought for a while, nodded and said, "It can be, but you may be disappointed in the result." ”

Ichigo smiled, "It's okay, I won't." ”

Chu Yang sighed and said, "Then come on." ”

The two came to the main road outside, and each put on a death overlord costume.

Ichigo decided to strike first, and rushed over with the moon slashing, as always reckless.

Chu Yang didn't summon the Slashing Sword, he simply wrapped his fist with spiritual pressure, and then smashed it with a punch, unpretentious.

Before Ichigo could get close, he was swept up into the sky by a huge spiritual pressure, and after landing on the ground, he was punched and completely fainted.

The battle ended in such a hurry that even Rukia, who was a spectator, did not react.

When she walked to Ichigo's side, she realized that the kid had passed out.

Rukia raised her head suddenly, looking at Chu Yang in shock.

Hakuya Kuchigi, who is also the captain of the Shinigami, may not be able to defeat Ichigo so easily.

After returning from the Corpse Soul Realm, Ichigo was not idle, and she saw the improvement of his strength.

"I said it would be disappointing."

Chu Yang was very helpless, the gap between him and Ichigo was a bit big, except for the chief captain Yamamoto, the other Captain Reaper was not his opponent at all now, let alone Ichigo.

Ichigo, who had experienced the battle in Kuzamachi, might be able to barely keep up with him.

"Are you going to carry him back, or are you going to wait for him to wake up naturally?"

Chu Yang looked at the entrance intentionally or unintentionally, preparing to go home and sleep.

"I'll pick the third one and put it in your house."

Rukia said angrily.

Then she really let go of Ichigo and disappeared into the night without looking back.

Chu Yang's eyelids jumped, and with a snap of his fingers, Ichigo's spirit body flew up and followed him home.

Early the next morning.

Ichigo woke up from the couch with a scream, and looked around blankly, "Have I already arrived at the Corpse Soul Realm?" ”

"Not yet." Chu Yang sat at the dining table drinking coffee and kindly reminded him, "But if you don't get up to go to school again, then it's not necessarily." ”

Ichigo's eyes widened suddenly, "I remember we had a fight yesterday. ”

Chu Yang's evaluation of this was, "It's okay, my brain hasn't been broken." ”

Ichigo took a breath, "Why did my memories end here, and what happened next?" ”

Chu Yang paused as he drank coffee, and sighed: "I took back what I said before, I should have broken half of it." ”

"It's better to go to school and ask Rukia to help you, you still have three minutes to ......"

After listening to this, Ichigo bounced up from the sofa, rushed to the entrance desperately, put on his shoes and pushed the door open, only to turn back and say to Chu Yang with a smile: "Welcome back." ”

Chu Yang was stunned for a moment, and was just about to say something, but Ichigo's figure was no longer visible in the entrance.

He could only keep his head down, look at the reflection in the cup, and smile.

"Thank you."

……

School.

"You said I fainted after just one punch?"

"Impossible!"

"Absolutely impossible!"

Ichigo strenuously denied that although he had lost his fleeting memory, he never believed that he would be so weak that he couldn't even take Chu Yang's punch.

"Maybe it's careless, everyone hasn't seen each other for a long time, and no one could have imagined that he would become so strong."

Comforting words came out of Rukia's mouth, but they didn't work at all, and Ichigo was very emotional.

"The competition in the Corpse Soul Realm should be fierce, the last time we went, the people there were terrifyingly strong, weren't they?"

"I think Yang must have put in a lot of effort to survive there."

"There isn't so much competition in this world, and you don't have too many opportunities to become stronger, and it's normal for your strength to be surpassed by Yang classmates, so there's no need to be so entangled."

Orihime explained from another angle, which made Ichigo's mood much better.

Ichigo scratched his head and said, "Indeed, the challenges that Yang needs to face are more severe, he gave up his life and chose to become a god of death, and his inner consciousness is stronger than anyone else. ”

Rukia looked at Orihime with some surprise, and was stunned that she was moved by someone in just a few words.

Orihime noticed Rukia's gaze and smiled embarrassedly.

"Even if Ichigo is careless and can defeat him with one punch, it means that Yang's strength should be among the top few among Captain Reaper."

Ishida Yuryu, who was sitting in front of Ichigo, lowered his head and wiped his glasses, and his tone was very complicated, "If this continues, the chances of us catching up with him are very low. ”

Orihime smiled: "Isn't this very good, the stronger Yang classmate is, the safer the Corpse Soul Realm and the present world will be, and everyone can live a peaceful life without worrying about fighting with the void." ”

Ishida Yuryu was dumbfounded, Orihime was right, the stronger the Grim Reaper, the safer it meant for ordinary people.

But he is an exterminator, an enemy of the Grim Reaper, and of course subconsciously thinks that it is a disadvantageous thing for a powerful Grim Reaper to appear.

Chu Yang is not Ichigo, and he has no deep connection with Ishida Yuryu, and the two of them are hostile positions between the Grim Reaper and the Exterminator.

The others didn't notice that Ishida Yulong's face was not good-looking, and everyone vigorously discussed the reason for the sharp decline.

"The decrease in the number of voids is also a good thing for this world, right?"

"Why do you care so much?"

Orihime didn't quite understand the reasoning.

"Because of the fear of the balance being broken, emptiness is also a part of the reincarnation of the soul, although it is a wrong part and needs to be corrected, it does not mean that this part of the existence can be directly erased."

"The decrease in the void also means that the soul is decreasing, and a large number of souls are out of the balance of the world's reincarnation, whether it is for the corpse soul realm or the present world, it will have a huge impact."

Rukia said with a serious expression: "As a simple example, what if there were no more newborns in the world?" ”

Orihime immediately understood what Rukia meant, and said in a low voice, "In this case, the human race will disappear from the world......"

Rukia said, "The example I just mentioned is not appropriate, because the impact of the soul reduction on the corpse soul realm and the present world is not so simple. ”

"It's not that humans will disappear from the world, but that the world itself will disappear and return to its original chaotic form, which is the state before the Spirit King created the world."

Hearing this explanation, Orihime and Ichigo suddenly shuddered, and even Ishida Yuryu was shocked.

Ichigo said urgently: "The impact is so serious, then you should go directly to the Void Circle to find the reason, why don't you take action?" ”

Rukia sighed and said: "Ichigo, you don't know about the Corpse Soul Realm, let alone the Void Circle, there is the graveyard of the Grim Reaper, as long as it is the Grim Reaper who has stepped into the Void Circle, few people come back alive, Captain Yamamoto's decision is not wrong." ”

Ichigo stopped talking, as Rukia said, he didn't know about the Corpse Soul Realm, nor did he understand the Void Circle, so he didn't have much to say.

But he always felt that it was wrong to do this, and the more harmful it was, the more the initiative should be in his own hands.

Ichigo suddenly thought of Chu Yang.

He should not be able to stand the decision of the Corpse Soul Realm before returning to this world.

"The source of the problem is in the imaginary circle, it is difficult to find clues in this world, Yang made a wrong decision this time......"

Ichigo muttered quietly.

"Not necessarily." Rukia suddenly spoke: "I thought it was strange when I first met him, he always had an incomprehensible self-confidence, and he was inexplicably sure about the next development of things. ”

"If he thinks there will be clues in this life, it means that something will definitely happen in the near future."
