Chapter 160

Hearing these words, the two were stunned; Aizen has already left the Hueco Mundo?

Then what was the meaning of their persistence up to now?

"You, are you speaking seriously?" Sasaki hurriedly asked.

Kuchiki Senya nodded, then said, "If you do not believe it, you can ask the Captain-Commander after you go out."

"Then, may I ask your name?" Sasaki looked at Kuchiki Senya.

He was still unwilling to believe Kuchiki Senya possessed such formidable power; Kuchiki Senya shrugged his shoulders, then stated his name.

"What? You are from the Kuchiki Clan, one of the Four Great Noble Families?" The two were shocked.

Soul Society is a feudal region with a strict hierarchy.

The Four Great Noble Families enjoy special rights throughout Soul Society; upon learning Kuchiki Senya was from the Kuchiki family, they were shocked once more.

"The Captain-Commander already knows about Aizen's matter, and what I am about to do is to deal with an enemy even stronger than Aizen; entering would be useless for you, so, go back." Kuchiki Senya looked at the two and said.

Upon hearing this, bitterness was written all over the two's faces.

"Since we arrived, we learned of Aizen's collusion with the Hueco Mundo, but we had absolutely no way to leave this place; for these years, our plan has always been to get close to Aizen, wanting to find Aizen and assassinate Aizen."

"But we never expected he would already not be in the Hueco Mundo..."

Sasaki gritted his teeth, then said, "But now you tell us to go back, yet we cannot return, and we no longer know how to live; from the very beginning, our understanding was either to die or to kill Aizen and then die."

"Therefore, please, my lord Kuchiki, take us with you!" After Sasaki and the other finished speaking, they directly knelt before Kuchiki Senya.

Kuchiki Senya looked at the two; having survived against death for so many years, they must have already been tired.

Moreover, they surely knew that the Hueco Mundo had so many experts; the two of them were merely a drop in the ocean, and the reason they wanted to go there to find Aizen was probably just to know the reason Aizen harmed them.

"Your strength is limited; if you are discovered after entering, it is death; taking you inside would hold me back." Kuchiki Senya said indifferently.

He cultivated Lavini precisely because he knew Lavini possessed immense potential and would surely be able to help him later; otherwise, he could have simply chosen to let Lavini leave from the very beginning.

"But, but we have already made preparations to face death!" Sasaki gritted his teeth, then rushed at Kuchiki Senya and said, "If you can grant our wish, even if we die, we are willing; after all, in that case, our death would have value!"

Hearing his words, Kuchiki Senya fell silent.

"The opponent is truly strong; take care of yourselves; if any of you are captured, I will not come to save you." Kuchiki Senya looked indifferently at the two before him and said.

"My lord Kuchiki, please rest assured; we will certainly not become your burden!" The two knelt before Kuchiki Senya in unison.

After settling all of this, Kuchiki Senya led the two and set off again.

This time, the four were already very close to the smuggling point, and according to Sasaki, they had been scouting this location for many days; basically, no one else would come here to smuggle during this period.

"Those Hollows who want to enter are thinking of living more easily; only we, knowing full well that entering might mean death, still must enter." Tetsuzo said half-jokingly at this moment.

"I hope you can live." Kuchiki Senya said indifferently.

Kuchiki Senya had decided on the battle time; the four waited patiently.

"Her strength is truly that strong?" Tetsuzo asked Kuchiki Senya.

He was speaking of Lavini, and Lavini, with an appearance as harmless as a lamb, could indeed make people lower their guard.

"Stronger than the Second Seat, at least; without Bankai, one cannot possibly be her opponent." Kuchiki Senya said indifferently.

Hearing these words, Tetsuzo's expression changed; he never expected Lavini's strength to be so terrifying.

Kuchiki Senya had been waiting; finally, the guards at the smuggling point began their shift change.

"Go!" Kuchiki Senya shouted loudly, and immediately the four sped forward inside.

Lavini's speed was still slightly inferior compared to Kuchiki Senya, but compared to Tetsuzo and the other, she could easily surpass them.

The four arrived at the smuggling point; at this moment, no one had noticed them.

"Have you thought about how to enter?" Kuchiki Senya asked.

He had not thought about this problem before; after all, these two had been preparing for so many years, it was impossible they had done nothing.

"This thing on our backs will be confirmed as a small Hollow; the Banshibu Society generally will not come looking for us." Sasaki said.

Kuchiki Senya nodded, then he took Lavini's hand.

Lavini's spiritual pressure wrapped around Kuchiki Senya's entire body, and then the two rushed in.

Inside and outside the barrier are completely two different worlds; the Inner City resembles a city in Soul Society, and in an instant, Kuchiki Senya sensed various spiritual pressures.

"Hollows, Arrancar, and Quincy; this place must have already become their base, and judging by how they are getting along now, they should not be conducting easy inspections." Kuchiki Senya narrowed his eyes.

These people, having lived in peace for so long, probably have long forgotten what war looks like.

Kuchiki Senya sensed that no one around had noticed them, but they were still outside the city wall; to enter, they still had to undergo questioning by the guards at the gate.

But they had no identification whatsoever, so they could only find a way to sneak in.

"What now?" Sasaki asked Kuchiki Senya.

"Wait." Kuchiki Senya checked the time.

"Wait for what?" Sasaki was stunned.

"Wait for their people to discover us." Kuchiki Senya raised an eyebrow.

Hearing these words, Sasaki was also dumbfounded; what did it mean to wait to be discovered?

"Go!" Suddenly, Kuchiki Senya called for them to leave.

The other three immediately followed Kuchiki Senya; shortly after they left, a patrol team came to their location.

"Nothing? It seems it was just some small Hollows; go back and have them clean it up." The Hollow in the guard team also came up empty.

Afterwards, Kuchiki Senya arrived at a place, told Sasaki and the others to wait, and then suddenly left.

After repeating this several times, the guards on the city wall had been mostly drawn away by Kuchiki Senya.

"That's enough; find a weakly defended spot to enter." Kuchiki Senya said.

Sasaki was stunned; wasn't this still a forced breach?

"Wait a moment; my Zanpakutō is of the Kidō type and can temporarily control the enemy's thoughts; why don't we try walking in; otherwise, if the whole city is on high alert, it will be very difficult for us to escape." Sasaki said to Kuchiki Senya.

Kuchiki Senya pondered for a moment, then finally nodded and agreed.

"Very well, we'll do as you say, but if there's any trouble, leave immediately with me," Kuchiki Senya said.

"Good." Sasaki nodded, then followed Kuchiki Senya toward the edge of the city wall.

Once they reached the bottom, Kuchiki Senya glanced at Lavini.

Lavini nodded; she removed the armor from her body and nailed each piece onto the city wall one by one.

"Move lightly; do not use any Shinigami power," Kuchiki Senya said.

He then stepped onto the armor first, leaped lightly, and climbed straight up the city wall.

As expected, the Hollows on the city wall did not detect their presence.

Those behind him followed him up; Lavini came last, retrieving the armor pieces and putting them back on.

"There's an exit ahead; it's your turn," Kuchiki Senya said, glancing at Sasaki.

Sasaki nodded, then began feeling his way forward.

Finally, at a corner, he spotted a Hollow patrol.

These Hollows were heading toward them; Sasaki drew his Zanpakutō and instantly released its Shikai.

· ··Begging for flowers·· ·

The Hollow captain at the front suddenly had his eyes turn red.

"You, go patrol elsewhere," the Hollow captain ordered.

Though unsure why the arrangement was made, the remaining few members obediently went in another direction.

Kuchiki Senya and the others walked out while Sasaki continued hypnotizing the Hollow captain.

"Crack!" Suddenly, Sasaki's Zanpakutō shattered.

"No!" Sasaki's expression changed instantly.

A second after the shattering, the Hollow captain's gaze suddenly regained clarity.

He still did not know what had happened; by the time he realized it, Lavini had already charged forward with her blade drawn.

"What now?" Lavini asked Kuchiki Senya, dragging the Hollow captain she had knocked unconscious.

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

"We cannot kill him, but we cannot let him know he was attacked..." Kuchiki Senya narrowed his eyes.

He then whispered two words into Lavini's ear; she was somewhat surprised but finally nodded and agreed to follow the plan.

"Very well, we'll do as you say," Lavini nodded.

Immediately, Lavini took the Hollow captain aside and woke him up.

"Is this how you guard the city wall?" Lavini glared angrily at the Hollow captain.

The other party was utterly bewildered; where had this beauty come from?
