Chapter 114: Kisuke Urahara: Want to know everything

Hearing Ichigo Kurosaki's shout, Orihime Inoue, who had just walked out of the Garganta, was stunned.

Although she knew Lin Que's purpose was to take her to find Kisuke Urahara, she really didn't expect to run into so many acquaintances as soon as she landed.

Silently scanning the surroundings, Orihime Inoue, knowing her current situation, didn't run around, but walked behind Lin Que.

"I'm here to understand the truth."

"The truth?"

Ichigo Kurosaki didn't understand what Orihime Inoue meant, and a look of confusion flashed in his eyes: "What are you referring to?"

"Of course, the truth of the Soul Society."

Lin Que raised his hand and waved leisurely: "Nice to meet you all, you can call me Lin Que, I am... well, Orihime Inoue's current master."

"Hey! What do you mean master!"

Ichigo Kurosaki instantly shifted his attention: "Don't talk about Orihime like she's a pet! You bastard!"

"Calm down first, Kurosaki."

Uryu Ishida, who was on the North North North Side, pressed him down: "In any case, it's a good thing that he brought Orihime out of Hueco Mundo."

"Next, we don't need to risk going to Hueco Mundo; we just need to find a way to save Orihime from his hands."

"Save her?"

Lin Que shook his head slightly: "Unfortunately, Orihime Inoue is now following me voluntarily."

"Stop joking!"

Ichigo Kurosaki glared angrily at Lin Que: "You bastards are the ones who kidnapped Orihime, and you still have the face to say that!"

"I'm telling the truth; if you don't believe it, just watch from now on."

Lin Que smiled and looked at Kisuke Urahara not far away: "Interested in exchanging some words?"

"What are you referring to?"

Kisuke Urahara narrowed his eyes: "The truth of the Soul Society you mentioned just now?"

"That's right."

Lin Que patted Orihime Inoue's shoulder: "I told her the Soul Society is man-eating, and she didn't believe me."

"Since that's the case, I had to bring her out to see the world."

"As the former captain of the 12th Division of the Gotei 13 and the director of the Department of Research and Development, I think you should know about these things."

"......Unfortunately, I don't quite understand what you mean."

Kisuke Urahara opened his folding fan and waved it, a carefree smile appearing on his face: "The Soul Society is just a dead thing, how could it eat people?"

"If you have to say it, it should be the two Hollows beside you who are more likely to eat people."

"Changing the subject is not a good habit."

Lin Que's voice came from the North North North Side: "If possible, I hope you can be a bit more cooperative, Kisuke Urahara."

Kisuke Urahara: "!"

When did he come over?

A confused thought flashed through his mind, and in the next second, a deadly threatening aura rushed toward his face.

Following his body's instinct, Kisuke Urahara decisively raised the cane in his hand.

"Awaken, Benihime!"

What was originally just an ordinary cane instantly transformed into the appearance of a Zanpakuto.

Crimson light flickered at the tip of the blade, stabbing straight toward Lin Que beside him.

But before the tip of the blade could touch Lin Que, a finger appeared in its path one step earlier and blocked it.

"Are you sure you want to fight me?"

Lin Que asked calmly: "I'm just here to ask questions."

"If you cooperate with me, this battle can naturally be avoided."

"I'm very curious, who exactly are you?"

A drop of sweat dripped from Kisuke Urahara's forehead: "Someone as strong as you, I should have heard of."

"That's not something you should know."

Lin Que's finger, which was blocking Benihime, bent slightly, and then he flicked it toward the blade.

A crisp shattering sound rang out, and Benihime instantly shattered into more than a dozen fragments, scattering all over the ground.

"Mr. Urahara!"

Surging spiritual pressure rose sharply, and seeing the usually unfathomable Kisuke Urahara fall into a disadvantage, Ichigo Kurosaki instantly entered Bankai state and rushed over.

"Did I let you move?"

Lin Que glanced at him, and a terrifying aura rushed toward him like a tide.

Boom—!

Ichigo Kurosaki, who had just launched a charge, was instantly pinned to the ground by this aura and fell into a coma.

Seeing this, Uryu Ishida and Yasutora Sado, who had originally wanted to act together, froze in place.

What happened?

How did their leader who was charging so fast disappear so quickly?

"Irrelevant people have been cleared away."

Withdrawing his gaze from Ichigo Kurosaki, Lin Que looked at Kisuke Urahara in front of him again: "Let's continue the topic from just now."

"......Is that kind of thing really important?"

· ·········· ·······

Temporarily suppressing the shock in his heart, Kisuke Urahara asked in as calm a tone as possible.

"The Soul Society eating people or whatever, that's just an insignificant trifle to you, why must you tell Orihime Inoue?"

"Knowing too much about some things is not necessarily a good thing for her."

"But for me, hiding the truth is even more cruel."

Listening to Kisuke Urahara's near-admission, Orihime Inoue, not far away, trembled slightly.

"Mr. Urahara, can an ordinary soul like my brother really live a good life in the Soul Society as Ichigo and the others said?"

"......For ordinary souls, the situations encountered in the Soul Society are simply too many."

.... ......... 0

Glancing at Halibel and Nel, who had not moved the whole time not far away, Kisuke Urahara sighed silently.

"If you want to understand it more comprehensively, it's best to go to the Department of Research and Development in the Seireitei."

"That is the place that monitors the entire Soul Society, and it records all kinds of information on a daily basis."

"It has also conducted analytical investigations on the living conditions of ordinary souls in the Soul Society."

"Are you trying to lead us to the Seireitei?"

Lin Que shook his head slightly: "The idea is good, but you might not understand what this action of yours represents."

An ominous premonition rose in Kisuke Urahara's heart: "What do you mean?"

"If you tell the truth here, our journey of exploration will naturally stop at the living world."

A playful smile appeared on Lin Que's face: "But if you lead us to the Seireitei, then it won't just be a matter of exploring the truth of the Soul Society."

"Maybe if things get big enough, it might even change the master of the entire Soul Society."

"Oh? That's really scary~"

A voice came from not far away: "Since it will cause such troublesome consequences, then I'll just keep you here."

Lin Que looked at Shinji Hirako and the others who appeared not far away: "Just based on you guys?"

"And us."

Two landing sounds rang out, and Yoruichi Shihouin and Isshin Kurosaki appeared on the left and right sides of Kisuke Urahara.
