Chapter 125: Kuchiki Rukia Appears
Late at night, in the silent streets, the occasional cries of crows seemed particularly eerie. Then, the roar of a Hollow shattered the silence. A young female Death God was fiercely battling a Hollow, the two sides going back and forth, unable to resolve the battle.
This female Death God was none other than Rukia Kuchiki. She had received instruction from Lin Yu before, and her current strength far surpassed that of the original character. It didn't take long for her to successfully defeat the Hollow.
This was Rukia's second time stationed in Karakura Town. She looked around warily, muttering to herself, "The Hollows have been appearing more and more frequently lately. It seems a little strange. It seems we need to report this anomaly to Soul Society as soon as possible."
Rukia was about to return to her base when she heard a cry for help. She followed the sound and saw a Hollow being pursued. Rukia quickly stepped forward, wielding her Zanpakutō and slaying the Hollow. The Hollow, saved, looked at her gratefully.
After questioning, Rukia learned that this person's name was Ryuzaki Kawaichi, and he was an ordinary soul who had just died and had not yet had time to go to Soul Society.
He told Rukia that recently in Karakura Town, Hollows were frequently attacking the recently deceased Hollows, and these Hollows were accompanied by strange lights. Rukia realized that the situation was becoming more serious and decided to investigate further.
Rukia followed Ryuzaki Kawaichi to a nearby school, which was also the strange place Ryuzaki Kawaichi mentioned. However, when they entered the campus, they found that it was filled with the aura of the hollow.
Suddenly, a large group of Hollows surged from all directions like a tide, instantly surrounding Rukia and Ryuzakigawa. Faced with such a situation, Rukia did not hesitate at all and immediately threw herself into the fierce battle.
However, these Hollows seemed much stronger than any she had encountered before, and their attacks were so ferocious that Rukia gradually felt overwhelmed.
Just as Rukia was struggling to resist, something unexpected happened - Ryuzaki Kawaichi, who was supposed to fight alongside her, actually attacked her!
This sudden change caught Rukia off guard, but fortunately she reacted quickly and narrowly avoided the fatal blow.
"This is......"
Rukia looked at Ryuzaki Kawaichi in astonishment, her heart filled with confusion and shock. At this moment, Ryuzaki Kawaichi was no longer the gentle and kind Hollow, but had turned into a hideous and terrifying Hollow.
This astonishing change left Rukia deeply confused. She couldn't understand why Ryuzaki Kawaichi suddenly became like this.
Rukia steadied herself, a hint of vigilance in her eyes. She asked Ryuzaki Kawaichi why he did this, but he just let out a low roar and then pounced on Rukia.
Rukia dodged to the side, realizing that Ryuzaki Kawaichi had lost his mind and became a Hollow.
The battle became more and more intense, Rukia repeatedly swung her sword at Ryuzaki Kawaichi, and each clash was accompanied by a burst of dazzling spiritual pressure. Finally, Rukia found Ryuzaki Kawaichi's weakness and killed him with one blow.
After Ryuzaki Kawaichi fell to the ground, his body gradually dissipated and turned into nothingness. Rukia looked at this scene with a heavy heart.
She was in a turmoil, completely confused. Was Ryuzaki Kawaichi just a disguise, or had he been assimilated into the Hollow during the battle? If it was the former, it would mean that all the Shinigami stationed in the real world would face a huge threat.
However, the current situation did not allow Rukia to have time to think deeply about this problem, because right in front of her, there were several Hollows staring at her, ready to attack at any time.
Rukia raised her Zanpakutō without hesitation, swiftly weaving through the Hollows. Her movements were swift and precise, each strike striking its mark with pinpoint accuracy. After a fierce battle, she finally succeeded in annihilating them all.
Rukia breathed deeply, secretly glad that she had finally cleared the Hollow. But just as she breathed a sigh of relief, something unexpected happened. The originally dark night sky suddenly tore open a huge hole, and a giant masked Hollow poked its head out from it.
"Oh no! It's Killian Hollow." Rukia shouted in panic.
Facing this massive and terrifying Hollow, Rukia felt an unprecedented sense of fear and pressure. She gripped her Zanpakutō tightly, sweat dripping from her palms. She knew she had faced a truly formidable foe, and a single misstep could cost her life.
Killian Hollow opened its bloody mouth, let out a deafening roar, and then suddenly pounced at Rukia. Rukia's eyes widened, and she used all her strength to dodge sideways.
She quickly swung her knife back and slashed at the Hollow fiercely. However, this blow did not seem to cause much damage to the Hollow.
The Hollow became even more enraged and attacked again, as fast as lightning.
Rukia dodged left and right, trying to find a chance to counterattack, but every time she dodged, she felt extremely exhausted.
She groaned inwardly, realizing the vast gap between her own strength and that of the Hollow. The continuous fighting tonight had already drained a significant amount of her spiritual pressure, and now, pressed relentlessly by Killian, she was forced to retreat. If this continued, she would surely perish.
At this moment, Killian opened his bloody mouth and a dazzling red light began to gather in his mouth.
A word flashed through Rukia's mind - hollow flash.
Fortunately, Killian's Void Flash needed a long time to gather spiritual pressure. She immediately set up several defensive ghost arts in front of her, and then retreated madly.
A dazzling red ray flashed out from Killian's mouth, and the buildings hit by the flash collapsed along the way, raising a large amount of dust. The ghost path set up by Rukia did not last for a few seconds before it was broken by the hollow flash.
Rukia tried her best to dodge the attack of the flash, but her movements became slower and slower, and her breathing became more and more rapid, as if she would suffocate at any moment. Her body gradually lost strength, her legs became weak, and the scene before her eyes began to blur.
"Damn it... am I really going to die?" Qia thought unwillingly, gritting her teeth. Her heart was filled with the fear of death and the desire to survive. However, no matter how hard she tried, she could not escape Xushan's pursuit.
The flash was getting closer and closer, and Qia's eyes widened, full of despair.
"Damn it! I don't want to die!" Qia shouted in her heart.
Just as the flash was about to hit her, Rukia gritted her teeth, mobilized all the spiritual pressure in her body, and used her final move.
"The Seventy-third Binding Method! Mountain-Overturning Crystal." She shouted loudly, her voice full of bitterness.
As she finished her words, a powerful spiritual pressure burst out from her body and quickly condensed into a blue inverted triangle crystal.
The Void Flash collided with the Mountain-Falling Crystal, instantly triggering a devastating explosion. The powerful impact toppled everything around it to the ground, and a huge cloud of dust filled the air.
Rukia was blown away by the blast and hit a nearby building hard, then fell unconscious.
"Sister Hisa, Brother-in-law Byakuya." At the moment before Rukia fell into coma, she seemed to see two people walking towards her.
