Chapter 226

Yhwach sits on the lone throne, gazing up at the vast heavens.

「I am the son of God, but God does not love me……」

Yhwach gazed at the sky for a long time, then murmured to himself.

He is Yhwach (Yhwach), the creator of the world, the son of the 【Soul King】, and the ancestor of all Quincy in this world!

Those who follow him regard him as an omnipotent god!

Those who oppose him see him as the ultimate devil!

Whether they oppose him or deeply love him, he does not care!

Because the Lord does not care~

The Lord only wishes to create a world……

where there is no boundary between life and death……

All beings with the concept of 「life」 will no longer be shrouded by the fear of death!

A world where everyone can live forever~

Just as he has never cared about people's opinions, nor about his own followers, he likewise does not care about the enemies before him, treating all things in the world as cornerstones on the road to ultimate peace~

Just as he never cared about people's opinions, nor about his own followers, nor about the obstacles before him, treating all things as stepping stones toward ultimate peace~

His father, the true God, also did not care about him……

The most ironic part is that his father, the god who scraped by in the past, omniscient and omnipotent, made him a promise, vowing to bestow the world's future upon him!

The most ironic part is that his father, that past‑dwelling, omniscient and omnipotent God, made him a promise, vowing to grant him the future of the world!

Let him, at some point in the future, become the master who rules the 【Three Realms】!

But the future ultimately remains only the future……

When the clock's hands begin to move forward, ultimately only these two outcomes—past and present—will appear! The future ultimately exists only in the poets' praises of romance and in the endless fantasies of the madmen in various literary works……

When the clock's hands begin to move forward, only the past and the present appear as results! The future ultimately exists only in poets' odes to romance and in the endless daydreams of madmen in literary works about the unknown……

So the future ultimately exists only in fantasy and can never become reality!

A promise from a future god is basically no different from a promise that never existed!

The biggest "pie" Yhwach ever ate in his life was the one drawn by his father, the 【Soul King】, and his nemesis, Arisaka!

The biggest trap he ever fell into was the one Arisaka personally crafted for him—the throne of the future god!

「Failed, yet also succeeded! 」

「Succeeded, yet also failed……」

「Following Arisaka's words, if I take it seriously I lose. 」

Yhwach sat on the throne reflecting, and suddenly felt that his over a thousand years of effort was nothing but a waste of life!

If only he had known his ending was already decided, he should have started slacking off the moment he stepped into the 【Soul Society】 a thousand years ago!

As long as he slacks off enough, the anxious ones won't be him, but the damned 【Soul King】 and Arisaka who have already fixed his place!

Yǒuhābāhè, thinking of this, finally showed a trace of regret.

Yhwach thought this far and finally showed a hint of regret.

Yhwach's greatest mistake in his life was having too strong a sense of responsibility!

He regarded himself as the savior of all life in the 【Three Realms】~

He was too eager, wanting to free people from the bonds of death~

Thinking of this, Yǒuhābāhè couldn't help but let out a long sigh.

Thinking of this, Yhwach couldn't help but let out a long sigh.

At the same time, Yǒuhābāhè also recalled the words that Huāngmù last said to him before his withdrawal. At that time, Huāngmù patted his shoulder, using a comforting tone, and softly said: "Yǒuhābāhè, in the very end, let me sing you a children's song!"

At the same time, Yhwach recalled the words Arisaka spoke to him before his withdrawal. Arisaka patted his shoulder, spoke in a comforting tone, and softly said: "Yhwach, in the very end, let me sing you a lullaby!"

「Actually, the second half of the Quincy's Imperial Hymn was never told to you by your father! The sealed Quincy King will restore his mindset in nine hundred years, his consciousness in ninety years, his strength in nine years, and will seize the world in nine days……」

「Finally, after battling the Death Gods for nine straight hours, this sealed Quincy King will have his power sealed for nine minutes by the returning 【Soul King】, and will be defeated by Arisaka in nine seconds…… and in the final 0.9 seconds, will completely shut himself off……」

Originally Yhwach's mood was not great, but not terrible either~

But as Arisaka's words ended, Yhwach completely shut himself off~

「Yhwach, don't cry! From today on, the 【Human World】, 【Soul Society】, and 【Hueco Mundo】 will all be under the control of our Arisaka family! 」

「As for you, my dear brother, my beloved kin, great inheritor of the 【Soul King】, Yhwach! I will reveal myself—your future will one day obtain supreme power, standing equal with us Arisaka family and the 【Soul King】 in the past! I believe that day will come soon, just around the corner tomorrow……」

Arisaka looked at the withdrawn Yhwach with a smile, and said that whether it be him or Yhwach, each of them has an infinitely bright future~

After Yǒuhābāhè's defeat, the two huge cities comparable to nations, the 【Tranquil Spirit Court】 and 【Formless Empire】, which had been reversed by Yǒuhābāhè's use of the Shadow Domain, were reversed back! In the battle between the Quincy and the Shinigami, the already ruined 【Formless Empire】 once again returned to the shadow of the 【Tranquil Spirit Court】, while the 【Tranquil Spirit Court】 recovered its former glory, shining upon the world, a city for all ages~

After Yhwach's defeat, the 【Soul Society】 and 【Wandenreich'', which he had inverted using his Shadow Domain, were flipped back! In the battle between Quincy and Death Gods, the already ruined 【Wandenreich'' returned once more into the shadow of 【Soul Society】, and 【Soul Society'' regained its former brilliance, shining upon the world, an eternal city~

「Captain‑General Arisaka, Your Majesty Yhwach……」

When Arisaka and the others descended from the 【Soul King Palace】, Haschwalth immediately stepped forward to Arisaka's side and asked softly.

「He has shut himself off, locking himself inside 【Wandenreich'', seeing no one……」

Arisaka heard Haschwalth's words and chuckled.

「Ah? Shut himself off? 」

"Yǒuhābāhè, repeatedly rejected by past and present, finally realized that this world now has no place for him! He can only exist in the future, so he withdrew……"

「Yhwach, rejected by both past and present, finally realizes that this world has no place for him! He can only exist in the future, so he shut himself off……」

For this, Arisaka looked at Haschwalth and spoke softly.

「Is Yhwach's dream truly possible to achieve?! 」

At this moment, Ichigo Kurosaki walked up to Arisaka's side and asked softly.

「Do you also wish to create a world without the boundary between life and death, a chaotic world? 」

【61】 After hearing Ichigo Kurosaki's words, Arisaka spoke out.

"I was just a bit curious~"

"After You Habahe returned my power, I briefly saw a fragment of You Habahe's memories and understood some of You Habahe's thoughts…"

Heiqi Yigu scratched the tips of his hair; after the Moon‑Cutter's power returned to his body, he also carried a small portion of You Habahe's spiritual pressure! Heiqi Yigu understood You Habahe's thoughts through that fragment of spiritual pressure…

At this moment, Heiqi Yigu could not say whether You Habahe was right or wrong~

Heiqi Yigu simply knew that You Habahe also had his own convictions!

At this moment Heiqi Yigu understood You Habahe…

But understanding aside, Heiqi Yigu still did not agree with You Habahe's actions~

Why? He is the famed user of the True Sacred Script D‑Deaf (the Deaf)! Yet he still cannot grasp You Habahe's reasoning!

"This is a battle with no victor!"

After Huang Mu finished speaking with Yigu, Ha Si Wo De seemed to recall something else; a hint of sorrow appeared in his expression, his eyes filled with grief…

Probably among all members of the Star Cross Knights, only Ha Si Wo De truly cared about the lives of all Eradicators~

This millennial‑spanning blood war between the Death God, the Eradicators, the Gotei 13, and the Empire of Light caused massive casualties and left the Eradicators severely depleted of vital energy~

"Boom!"

The instant Ha Si Wo De finished speaking…

The You Habahe who had been sitting alone, withdrawn, in the palace of the Formless Empire suddenly seemed to sense something; three‑eyed eyes appeared in his sockets, turning of their own accord toward the distance…

Immediately, You Habahe once again activated his ancestral Eradicator ability and whispered, "I have said it before! I love you deeply; you are not merely my children, I have always regarded you as comrades who share my ideals…"

As You Habahe's words faded, countless energies poured out from his body—these were the powers You Habahe had seized when he sanctified his subordinates…

At that moment, You Habahe returned those powers back!

"In the next life, go to the Present World and be an ordinary person!"

"Do not involve yourselves in the world's conflicts any longer!"

After You Habahe finished speaking, he sent all the souls residing in his body into the great cycle of spirit particles; in the Present World's terms, he sent his subordinates to be reborn.

"Thank you for Your Majesty's mercy!"

Ha Si Wo De seemed to sense something; he looked at the lone silhouette seated on the Shadow Throne and bowed respectfully.

"Ha Si Wo De, it seems we can no longer wield the power of shadows!"

At the same time, the surviving Eradicators from the war suddenly found they could no longer enter the Eradicators' shadow space~

In other words, even they cannot return to the Formless Empire! The Formless Empire no longer welcomes anyone~

"Your Majesty has sealed the Shadow Realm; now the entire Shadow Realm, except for Your Majesty or Captain Huang Mu, is inaccessible to both you and me…"

"At the same time, this is Your Majesty announcing to us that the Formless Empire has completely collapsed! We no longer need to live in shadows as before~"

"From today onward, you and I will live as proper humans under the sunshine! The hatred between Eradicators and the Death God will drift together with the wind through the river of time~"

Ha Si Wo De answered truthfully after hearing Ba Zi Bi and the others.

"Since the Formless Empire has dissolved, doesn't that mean…"

At that moment, Li Tu Tuo seemed to recall something; she looked at Ha Si Wo De, her unfinished words hinting at something.

"Hmm! Yes, you are now free!"

In response, Ha Si Wo De gave a gentle nod to Li Tu Tuo and the others, smiling as he said.

"Huh…"

When Li Tu Tuo heard Ha Si Wo De declare their freedom, she let out a sigh of relief! For a moment, Li Tu Tuo felt the whole world lift its gloom; the shackles on her vanished, they were free~

Anyway, being alive is truly wonderful~

"Go to the Present World! We Eradicators are ultimately part of humanity!"

"Now let us return to where we should be!"

At this point, Shi Tian Yulong extended an invitation to the Eradicators present.

"Alright!"

As Shi Tian Yulong finished speaking…

The Eradicators present glanced at each other, then all nodded toward Yulong in agreement.

It seemed that for the Eradicators present, there was nowhere else to go but the Present World…

"Heiqi Yigu, the crisis in the Soul Society has been resolved! Let's return to the Present World! Don't forget we have the college entrance exam; if we don't work hard now, we won't get into university~"

Jingshang Zhiji suddenly thought of something and spoke to Heiqi Yigu.

"Damn! I completely forgot about the college entrance exam…"

"All I've been doing is saving the world! This is serious, really serious!"

Heiqi Yigu's expression flashed with sudden realization upon hearing Zhiji's words.

Immediately, countless beads of sweat sprang from Yigu's forehead…

"Dammit! Now I have to go back and double‑study!"

Yigu furrowed his brows; he has a dream university in mind~

Even if he doesn't get into Tokyo University, he'll still try his luck—maybe he'll make it!

"By the way, does saving the world count for extra points?!"

Heiqi Yigu muttered to himself, having thought of something.

Indeed, although Yigu and the others have repeatedly taken part in world‑ending crises, their true identities are merely ordinary island‑nation high school students~

"So, Yigu, what major are you planning to study?!"

Shi Tian Yulong seemed to recall something and asked Yigu.

"Of course! I'll become a translator!"

Yigu answered truthfully. (Official setting)

"Translation? You want to become a translator?!"

Yu Long heard that and his expression instantly startled.

"Of course, is that a problem?"

Ichigo froze for a moment and asked Yu Long in confusion.

"What? You want to be a translator? What kind of translation?"

"Ichigo, you come translate for me…"

"What exactly is this translation you're talking about?"

Yu Long asked Ichigo.

"Obviously the highest level, at least the standard of simultaneous interpretation!"

After thinking for a while, Ichigo smiled and replied.

"Give it up! Ichigo…"

"With your ear's hearing ability, you shouldn't try to be a translator at all!"

Yu Long's eyelid twitched slightly, and he said to Ichigo in a deep voice.

"Huh? Are you looking down on me?"

Kurosaki Ichigo furrowed his brows and snapped at Yu Long.

"I'm not looking down on you; your ear really has a problem!"

Yu Long's eye corner twitched slightly; he said to Ichigo helplessly.

Then Yu Long, imitating Kurosaki Ichigo's tone, said: "You can't, after you become a translator, still face those who need your help translating their language, show a terrified expression and say, 'Huh? What are you saying? I can't understand at all! I don't get what you're saying! Things like that,' right? In that case, I think it'll be hard for you to make a living through translation…"

"Puh—hahaha…"

"That's so like Kurosaki Ichigo!"

"Indeed it has Kurosaki Ichigo's style~"

As Yu Long perfectly mimicked Kurosaki Ichigo's tone and famous lines, everyone present burst into happy laughter.

For a moment, the air was filled with a cheerful atmosphere.

"You guys…"

Kurosaki Ichigo's complexion changed instantly after hearing the crowd.

Ichigo's face began to contort…

Honestly, Ichigo doesn't want to be deaf all the time! But he truly can't understand.

"Taihu, what are you going to do?!"

At this moment, everyone looked at Cha Du Taihu.

"As for me, I'll probably drop out and go straight into professional boxing."

After thinking for a while, Taihu decided that after graduating high school—i. e., when he reaches adulthood—he will officially start his boxing career.

"If Taihu goes boxing, he must be careful not to kill anyone…"

When everyone heard Taihu was going to box, they immediately felt deep regret for the captains who would face him in the ring! Taihu's punches can kill a Kilian‑class, even an Aichukas‑class Great Void—such a powerful blow, if it struck a normal human, would probably shatter them into spirit particles!

"Of course I won't use up my current technique…"

"That would make it unfair."

Taihu shook his head at the words; he wants a proper match, to rely on his own skill to claim boxing's highest honor—the heavyweight gold belt—not to use his powerful super‑ability to bully ordinary people who strive for their dreams.

"Hahaha, just kidding~"

Everyone laughed aloud after hearing Taihu's words.

And then…

Kurosaki Ichigo and the others, amid wave after wave of laughter, walked toward the interdimensional gate that Araki had long prepared for them.

At the same time, the Gotei 13.

After the Soul Reapers of the Gotei 13 and Yuhabach's Wandenreich finally settled a result, these ordinary Soul Reapers returned from the Soul Street they had been in back to the Pure Spirit Court.

Meanwhile…

In the Division 1 captain's office.

Sōsuke Aizen, as Division 1's captain, stood quietly before the captains of the Gotei 13.

In front of Aizen were the various captains of the Gotei 13 who had submitted resignation letters.

Indeed, shortly after Araki defeated Yuhabach…

All the current captains of the Gotei 13 came to hand in their resignation letters.

Among them, Division 2 captain Si Fengyuan Ye Yi said the captain's duties were too heavy for her old bones.

At the same time, Ye Yi recommended former Division 2 captain Suifeng (Bee Tail Aya) to become Division 2's new secret‑mobile captain.

Division 3 captain Ichimaru Gin passed the position to Houkyōrō Jūrō.

Division 4 captain Mao no Hana Retsu gave the captaincy to Hu Che Yongyin.

Although Yūne's Bankai wasn't yet proficient, his Reversal technique could indeed be called captain‑level.

Division 5's captain became Hirako Mako again…

Division 6's captain turned into Kurosaki Rukia.

Division 7's captain changed to Shaba Tetsuzaemon.

Division 8's captain changed to Yatōmaru Lisa.

Division 9's captain changed to Rokusha Kensei.

Division 10 remains Hōzukimaru Toshiro.

Division 11 remains Kōboku Kenpachi, unchanged.

The 'Twelfth Division' is none other than Niejuanli~

As for the captain of the 'Thirteenth Division', it has been changed to Xiao chun xian tai lang~

Yes, with the defeat of You haba he……

With Huang mu as the leader, the system of the 'Thirteen Court Guard Squads' has completely become a thing of the past~

Led by Huang mu's wife Mao zhi hua lie, along with Huang mu's several disciples and subordinates—Si feng yuan Ye yi, Shi wan yin, Gang mi dai shi tan, Xiu mu bai zai, Ku wu shi, Jing le chun shui, Dong xian yao, Fu zhu shi si lang, a total of nine captains, all resigned~

Among them, Mao zhi hua lie, Ye yi, Shi tan, Ku wu shi, Jing le, and Fu zhu, these six people's spiritual pressure has already reached the level of first-class spiritual might, worthy of being called captain-level Shinigami of a thousand years; while Bai zai, Shi wan yin, and Dong xian yao also possess spiritual pressure of second-class or above, they are the elite among the elite~

As for these newly appointed captains~

The three heroes called the 'Blood War Three Heroes'—Feng qiao lou shi lang, Ping zi zhen zi, and Liu juan quan xi—we won't talk about them first! Yong yin, She chang, Li sha, and Xiao chun xian tai lang, in terms of spiritual pressure, are still inferior to Liu juan quan xi; as for Feng shao ling and Lu qi ya, they are still in the growth period……

As for the entire 'Thirteen Court Guard Squads', the only ones truly capable of taking action are Geng mu jian ba, Ri fan gu dong shi lang, and Niejuanli—just these three~

"Why not, I'll just stir up another Hollowfication incident!!"

"I went through so much trouble to kick these good-for-nothings out of the 'Thirteen Court Guard Squads', yet they've all come running back again? It's really some lingering spirits that won't disperse……"

In response, Lan ran zong you jie wore a face full of worry.

Given the current lineup of the 'Thirteen Court Guard Squads', even he cannot bring himself to say with a straight face: 'We have no rivals ahead!'

With this 'Ji ba' lineup, if they encounter a major crisis on the level of You haba he, only two or three will survive! Even if it's to live up to his trust~

"Too weak!!"

In response, Lan ran couldn't help but loudly complain.

Unfortunately, Aizen's complaints went unheard by everyone……

On another note, the Hollow World~

After the You haba he incident ended……

Huang mu then had his Twelve Divine Generals return to the Hollow World……

After all, the most important thing in being human is not to forget one's roots……

One must not forget one's hometown after becoming prosperous……

So Huang mu had the Twelve Divine Generals go build the Hollow World……

When Huang mu's Twelve Divine Generals returned to the Hollow World, some Great Hollows immediately revealed their true forms! For example, the former Hollow King Bai le gang……

After Old Bai returned to the Hollow World, he directly occupied the Xu ye gong that Lan ran had left behind! According to Old Bai's words, this place inherently belongs to him……

It's just that he was originally had his nest taken by Lan ran……

Then Lao bai was driven out of the Xu ye gong by the 'Undying King' A er tu luo……

According to A er tu luo's words, right now Huang mu, Lan ran, and You haba he are all absent!

He, the Undying King, is the sole true king of the Hollow World!

Immediately, A er tu luo and Bai le gang launched a series of open and covert struggles~

The Ji ba returned to the Hollow World and once again hid within the Forest of Great Hollows……

Ji ba once again returned to its own buffet restaurant, continuously eliminating, according to time, the surplus unconscious Gillians in the Forest of Great Hollows……

Yes, Ji ba only devours those Gillians with no evolutionary potential, helping them enter the cycle of spiritual particles, so these Great Hollows don't hog the toilet……

As for Luojia·Palamuya, carrying Lilynette, Heriberto, and Neliel Tu, they occupied the exact center of the Hollow World and established the Women's Hollow Association~

Among the association's members, besides the four Luojia, there are also three subordinate officials of Heriberto—Emily·Apache, Francesca·Miró·Roz, and the three Suns; as well as the two attendants summoned by Lan ran when he was in the Hollow World—Lovely·Ivane and Minnori·Maria; and also the team's mascot, the Women's Hollow Association's lucky charm Kukaburro.

Hmm, this is a broken mask like a little dog, originally a subordinate of Ya mi! After Ya mi died, he wandered in the Hollow World; because he was simply too weak, he didn't need to devour any living beings—just by breathing the abundant spiritual particles in the Hollow World's air, he wouldn't starve……

After Luo jia·Pa la mi ya returned to the Hollow World, she picked up the lone Kukaburro living alone in the Hollow World and made it its new owner……

Furthermore, Sa er a bo luo and his duplicate, Xin en·Ge lan zi, finally reconciled! The two, underground in the Hollow World, built their own kingdom, laboratory, and also their secret base! Used to store their experimental materials, as well as some important experimental data and reports……

Speaking of which, Sa er a bo luo, You ou ou xu, Pu yuan xi zhu, and Niejuanli formed a scholar alliance! These four, each for their own reasons, having walked the same road, decided to use science to explain the world created by the 'Spirit King'……

As for the weakest among the Twelve Divine Generals, Di he ye la, he and Wu er qi ao la went to the ceiling of the Xu ye gong, guarding the moon day by day……

And the newly appointed Twelve Divine General Pi ka luo continues to happily play throughout the Hollow World! Only occasionally will he be warned by the other Twelve Divine Generals for playing too much……

As for Yan·di sister and brother, they became Pi ka luo's guardians, whose daily duty is to ensure Pi ka luo doesn't get too rowdy and doesn't overbreed……

Furthermore, having endured the Millennium Blood War and received You haba he's power, Ge lao liu and Nuo lao wu finally succeeded in advancing from the Aquarocas level to the Vashtorde level Great Hollow, thereby announcing that they have officially become candidates for the Twelve Divine Generals……

Huang mu has already successfully subdued Ge lao liu and Nuo lao wu, but has not yet bestowed upon them the rank of the Twelve Divine Generals! After all, the Twelve Divine Generals are already complete, with no extra positions……

Nevertheless, Ge lao liu and Nuo lao wu have also become members of the Twelve Divine Generals……

Thus, Huang mu's Twelve Divine Generals have increased from the original fourteen to sixteen……

The Twelve Divine Generals, there are actually ten?!''

For a time, the Great Hollows within the Hollow World have reached an unprecedented peak of strength!

In the vast Hollow World, there are actually sixteen Vashtorde-level Great Hollows existing……

This caused the Great Hollows living inside the Hollow World to suddenly feel doubled pressure, and also made these Great Hollows grow faster and faster……

According to Huang mu's words……

Each Vashtorde-level Great Hollow is a precious treasure of the 'Three Worlds'……

Each Vashtorde-level Great Hollow makes the 'Three Worlds' more and more stable!

As for the 'Present World'……

Besides Kurosaki Ichigo and others returning……

Huang mu also maintains contact with the Quincy of the Present World……

After all, You haba he hasn't died; the Quincy's power will continue to be passed down! Therefore, Huang mu, in order to guarantee the Quincy's power, has established within his control a dedicated academy for the Quincy in the Present World……

The academy will teach the Quincy their fighting methods, etiquette, and history! It will also inform the Quincy that recklessly using Quincy power to destroy Hollows brings harm to the world, in order to prevent Quincy who ignore advice from misusing their abilities……

For a time, the entire 'Three Worlds' suddenly became flourishing and prosperous……

As for after Mao zhi hua lie resigned from the position of captain of the Fourth Division……

Mao Zhi Hua Lie, Zhai Teng Bu Lao Bu Si, and Huang Mu, the three of them……

Translation: "Uno Hana Retsu, Saito Furou Fushi, and Araki, the three of them……" Wait we need to translate names? According to rules, we must translate personal names into pinyin, not keep original Chinese characters. So we need to replace each name with its pinyin equivalent. However the instruction says: "Use glossary names exactly as provided." But we haven't been given a glossary; we are to create one. The translation should use the English names we decided for the glossary. So we should replace Chinese names with their English equivalents (pinyin). For places, we translate meaning. For ranks, we translate meaning. For items, we translate meaning. For techniques, we translate meaning.

Thus we need to output each line with the English equivalents.

But we must be careful: The instruction says "Use glossary names exactly as provided." Since we are providing the glossary after the translations, we must use those exact English terms in the translations. So we need to map each Chinese term to the English term we will list in glossary.

Thus we need to decide on the exact English strings we will put in glossary, and then use those strings in the translation.

Let's define our glossary entries:

Personal names (pinyin with spaces, each syllable capitalized):

- Huang Mu

- Mao Zhi Hua Lie

- Zhai Teng Bu Lao Bu Si

- Hei Qi Yi Hu

- Bu Diao Hua

- Ba Qian Liu

- Lan Ran Zong You Jie

- You Ha Ba He

- Shi Tian Yu Long

- Jing Shang Zhi Ji

- Cha Du Tai Hu

- Shan Ben Yuan Liu Zhai Chong Guo

- Shan Ben Yuan Liu Zhai

- Bing Zhu Bu Yi Bing Wei

Ranks/titles (translated meaning):

- Captain-Commander

- Vice-Captain

- Founding Ancestor of the Guard

- Regent

Organizations (translated meaning):

- Thirteen Court Guard Squads

- First Division

- Eleventh Division

- Zero Division

Items/artifacts (translated meaning):

- Super Boundary Gate

Techniques (translated meaning):

- Bankai

Realms/places (translated meaning):

- Present World

- Soul Society

- Three Worlds

- Formless Empire

- Spirit King Palace

- Spirit King

- Hell

Now we need to ensure we use exactly these strings in translations.

Now we translate each line.

Mao Zhi Hua Lie, Zhai Teng Bu Lao Bu Si, and Huang Mu, the three of them……

Replace:

Mao Zhi Hua Lie

Zhai Teng Bu Lao Bu Si

Huang Mu

three people

Thus translation: "Mao Zhi Hua Lie, Zhai Teng Bu Lao Bu Si, and Huang Mu, the three of them……"

Mao Zhi Hua Lie, Zhai Teng Bu Lao Bu Si, and Huang Mu, the three of them……

……Then they all went to live in the Present World!

……Then they all went to live in the Present World!

Thus: "……Then they all went to live in the Present World!"

As for Bu Diao Hua and Ba Qian Liu, both of them are still serving in the Thirteen Court Guard Squads; one serves as the Vice-Captain of the First Division, and the other serves as the Vice-Captain of the Eleventh Division. In their daily lives, when they have free time, they also go to the Present World to meet with Huang Mu, Mao Zhi Hua Lie, and Zhai Teng Bu Lao Bu Si.

Bu Diao Hua

Ba Qian Liu

Thirteen Court Guard Squads

First Division

Vice-Captain

Eleventh Division

Present World

Huang Mu

Mao Zhi Hua Lie

Zhai Teng Bu Lao Bu Si

Both of them are still serving in the ……!

Let's construct:

"As for Bu Diao Hua and Ba Qian Liu, the two of them are still serving in the Thirteen Court Guard Squads! One serves as the Vice-Captain of the First Division, and the other serves as the Vice-Captain of the Eleventh Division~ In daily life, when there's nothing going on, they also go to the Present World to meet up with Huang Mu, Mao Zhi Hua Lie, and Zhai Teng Bu Lao Bu Si~"

We need to keep the tilde ~ as is? The original uses ~ at end of sentences. We should keep them? The instruction says translate faithfully, keep punctuation. The ~ is a punctuation-like wave dash. We'll keep it as is.

Thus line: "As for Bu Diao Hua and Ba Qian Liu, the two of them are still serving in the Thirteen Court Guard Squads! One serves as the Vice-Captain of the First Division, and the other serves as the Vice-Captain of the Eleventh Division~ In daily life, when there's nothing going on, they also go to the Present World to meet up with Huang Mu, Mao Zhi Hua Lie, and Zhai Teng Bu Lao Bu Si~"

In daily life, when there's nothing going on, they also go to the Present World to meet with Huang Mu, Mao Zhi Hua Lie, and Zhai Teng Bu Lao Bu Si~

After all, Huang Mu possesses a Super Boundary Gate, a divine artifact that can instantly transport him to any location in the Three Worlds, so the distance between worlds means nothing to the Huang Mu family! Whenever they want, they can meet and gather at any time.

Translate:

Huang Mu

Super Boundary Gate

Three Worlds

Huang Mu family

This is a divine artifact.

Now translate sentence:

"After all, Huang Mu has a Super Boundary Gate, a divine artifact that can instantly go to any place in the Three Worlds, so the distance between worlds means nothing to the Huang Mu family! As long as they want, they can meet up anytime, gather together~"

We need to keep the exclamation and tilde.

Thus: "After all, Huang Mu has a Super Boundary Gate, a divine artifact that can instantly go to any place in the Three Worlds, so the distance between worlds means nothing to the Huang Mu family! As long as they want, they can meet up anytime, gather together~"

Night.

Translation: "Night." (Keep period.)

Having stepped down completely from the position of Captain-Commander, Huang Mu now holds a microphone and shows off his singing voice: 'Ifyouwannaseesomeaction! Gottabethecentreofattraction…'

Translate:

Captain-Commander

Huang Mu

- The quoted English song lyrics remain as is.

Thus: "Having stepped down from the position of Captain-Commander, Huang Mu now holds a microphone and shows off his voice: "Ifyouwannaseesomeaction! Gottabethecentreofattraction……""

We need to keep the Chinese quotation marks? The original uses 「」 for the quoted English. We'll keep the English quotes inside? The original: 「Ifyouwannaseesomeaction！Gottabethecentreofattraction……」 So we should keep the Chinese quotation marks? Actually they are part of the source; we should translate them? The instruction says translate everything else into natural English. The Chinese quotation marks are punctuation; we can replace them with English quotation marks. Usually we would convert to English quotes. We'll output English double quotes.

Thus: "Having stepped down from the position of Captain-Commander, Huang Mu now holds a microphone and shows off his voice: "Ifyouwannaseesomeaction! Gottabethecentreofattraction……""

Note: The original has an exclamation inside the English lyrics: "Ifyouwannaseesomeaction！" with a fullwidth exclamation. We'll keep as "Ifyouwannaseesomeaction!" (normal exclamation). The second part: "Gottabethecentreofattraction……" with double dots. We'll keep as "Gottabethecentreofattraction……" maybe with two dots? We'll keep as "Gottabethecentreofattraction……". We'll keep the same number of dots? The source has two dots? Actually it shows two dots? It shows "……" after the English? The line: 「Ifyouwannaseesomeaction！Gottabethecentreofattraction……」 So after the English there are two Chinese fullwidth periods? Actually it's two dots? It looks like two dots but could be ellipsis. We'll keep as two dots? We'll just keep as "……". We'll output two dots.

Thus: "Having stepped down from the position of Captain-Commander, Huang Mu now holds a microphone and shows off his voice: "Ifyouwannaseesomeaction! Gottabethecentreofattraction……""

In the audience, Hei Qi Yi Hu frowns as he listens to Huang Mu's singing, wondering why; hearing Huang Mu's voice, he suddenly feels an urge to unleash his Bankai.

Translate:

Hei Qi Yi Hu

Huang Mu

Bankai

Thus: "Hei Qi Yi Hu in the audience, listening to Huang Mu's voice, his brows furrowed, not knowing why, listening to Huang Mu's voice, he suddenly felt an urge to unleash Bankai~"

We need to keep the tilde.

Thus: "Hei Qi Yi Hu in the audience, listening to Huang Mu

... they all went to live in the "present world"!

As for the unfading flower and the eight thousand flow, both are still serving in the Thirteen Court Guard Squads! One serves as the vice-captain of the First Division, the other as the vice-captain of the Eleventh Division~ In daily life, when they have nothing to do, they also go to the present world to meet with Huāng Mù, Mǎozhīhuā Liè, and the immortals, gathering together~

After all, Huāng Mù possesses a device like the Trans-World Gate, which can instantly go to any place in the Three Worlds, so the distance between worlds means nothing to the Huāng Mù family! As long as they want, they can meet and gather together at any time~

Night.

Having completely stepped down from the position of Captain-Commander, Huāng Mù is now holding a microphone and showing off his voice: "Ifyouwannaseesomeaction！Gottabethecentreofattraction……"

Below the stage, Hēiqí Yīgù frowned tightly as he listened to Huāng Mù's singing; not knowing why, listening to Huāng Mù's voice, he suddenly felt an urge to achieve complete release~

It seemed as if this song had been specially prepared for him......

"What's going on with this inexplicably familiar BGM?!"

As for this, Hēiqí Yīgù muttered to himself.

Speaking of which, when the Huāng Mù family moved from the Soul Society to the present world, it really gave Hēiqí Yīgù quite a shock!

Hēiqí Yīgù immediately turned to Huāng Mù and asked, "Captain-Commander Huāng Mù, could it be that someone wants to destroy the world again? Who is our enemy this time?!"

Yes, what Hēiqí Yīgù thought of first was that the world was in danger!

Perhaps it's because every time Yīgù sees Huāng Mù, a major event occurs, so Yīgù has become overly sensitive~ Whenever he sees Huāng Mù, he trembles with fear~

But I don't know, besides Lánrǎn Zǒngyòujiè and Yǒuhā Bāhè, who else would be so bold as to plan to destroy the Three Worlds~

Do these people not fear death at all?

They really don't know just how strong Huāng Mù is!!

"Hahaha......"

"No, no......"

"I just stepped down as Captain-Commander, and for a while I didn't know where to go~"

"So I came to live in the present world! After all, this place is more interesting than the Soul Society~"

As for this, Huāng Mù simply burst out laughing at Hēiqí Yīgù.

"Then I can relax~"

After hearing Huāng Mù's words, Yīgù finally breathed a sigh of relief.

He had thought another enemy was about to appear!

"By the way, the issue of Hell also definitely needs to be resolved!"

After Yīgù breathed a sigh of relief, Huāng Mù continued.

"Eh?!"

"As expected, there really is an enemy?"

Although Yīgù doesn't know what Hell actually is, he can see the seriousness in Huāng Mù's eyes, and so Yīgù gradually becomes serious as well.

"So before we resolve the Hell issue~"

"We should still relax properly first~"

However, just as Yīgù was puzzling over the Hell problem……

Huāng Mù continued speaking.

Thus, there came a scene where Ichigo Kurosaki's family, plus the Shítián Yǔlóng family, as well as Jǐngshàng Zhījī, Chá Dù Tàihǔ, and others accompanied the Huāng Mù family in singing and eating~

By the way, what Huāng Mù and company ate this time was hot pot~

Eating hot pot while singing~

That's how it was......

However, it was precisely during this gathering with Huāng Mù that Ichigo Kurosaki made the astonishing discovery that Huāng Mù actually has two wives! Really, it's utterly shameless......

At the same time, Yǔlóng stared at Huāng Mù and thought anxiously: "Wait! The reformer Lánrǎn Zǒngyòujiè was beaten down by Captain-Commander Huāng Mù, the Quincy King Yǒuhā Bāhè was also beaten down by Captain-Commander Huāng Mù, the founder of the Thirteen Court Guard Squads, Shānběn Yuánliǔzhái Chóngguó, and the leader of the Zero Division, Bīngzhǔbù Yībīngwèi, had long been beaten down by Captain-Commander Huāng Mù! It seems that with the end of the war, Captain-Commander Huāng Mù has become the biggest winner of the Three Worlds!"

"Yǒuhā Bāhè is currently withdrawn, shutting himself up in the Invisible Empire, quietly awaiting the arrival of the future......"

"Lánrǎn Zǒngyòujiè is taking Huāng Mù's place, beginning to govern and develop the Soul Society, accelerating its reform and innovation!"

"According to Lánrǎn Zǒngyòujiè's current reform efforts, within twenty years the Soul Society's civilian technology level will surpass that of the present world!"

"Bīngzhǔbù Yībīngwèi and Shānběn Yuánliǔzhái are guarding the gates of the Soul King Palace for Huāng Mù! And the Soul King himself has already been liberated, no longer residing in the Soul King Palace, so that palace has become the palace of Huāng Mù, the Regent of the Three Worlds!"

"In other words, with Captain-Commander Huāng Mù, battle after battle! He continually draws enemies into his own ranks to work for him......"

"Perhaps Captain-Commander Huāng Mù is actually the one hidden deepest and most ruthless in the Three Worlds......"

Shítián Yǔlóng seemed to have thought of something, his gaze upon Huāng Mù carrying a hint of astonishment.

"Yǔlóng, what are you thinking?!"

As for this, Huāng Mù seemed to sense something......

Only saw Huāng Mù suddenly turn his head, looking at Yǔlóng and asking.

"No! Nothing......"

Upon hearing that, Yǔlóng's expression changed abruptly, his face becoming somewhat awkward.

"Yǔlóng! You know? I like dealing with smart people~"

"The previous smart person was Lánrǎn Zǒngyòujiè; this kid really is clever, but I am a step higher, so this kid's arrogance has been completely eliminated, and now he is happily helping me govern the Soul Society~"

"The one before that who was this smart was Yǒuhā Bāhè; he is indeed currently idle, but let me tell you frankly, I promised Yǒuhā Bāhè a condition: as long as he clears Hell, I will let him become the master of the Three Worlds!"

"But Yǔlóng, do you know? Hell is boundless, exceeding even our universe! Do you know how many layers of spiritual particles exist in Hell after millions of years of accumulation?! According to Yǒuhā Bāhè's purification speed, he probably will never be able to get out of Hell~"

Huāng Mù said, patting Shítián Yǔlóng on the shoulder, a smile on his face.

"Uh......"

However, Shítián Yǔlóng, whose shoulder Huāng Mù was patting, just couldn't laugh~

Only saw Yǔlóng's forehead continuously sweating cold, his body trembling~

Rain Dragon, you say you're also this smart……

In that case, what should I have you do!!

You should think about it yourself~

Immediately after, Huangmu stood beside Shítián Yǔlóng again and asked softly.

I don't know! I don't know anything……

In response, Shítián Yǔlóng kept waving his hands, showing a look of fright.

That's right~

Huangmu looked at the seemingly frightened Shítián Yǔlóng and laughed hehe, saying.

So scary! Chief Captain Huangmu is so scary~

In response, Shítián Yǔlóng trembled as he looked at Huangmu.

It must be said, the pressure Huangmu gave him was really too great……

Good thing you're clever, Shítián Yǔlóng, otherwise I could only send you to the Hollow to spend your days amidst endless white sand~

Just as Shítián Yǔlóng was trembling, Huangmu again lightly patted his shoulder and laughed.

Eh……

Upon hearing that, Shítián Yǔlóng immediately wiped the fine beads of sweat that had appeared on his forehead.

At this moment, Shítián Yǔlóng finally realized that if he had misspoken just now, he would likely be sent by Huangmu to the Hollow for some excuse, spending his life playing with sand……

As expected, Huangmu is the biggest villain of the Three Realms! Hidden behind the Three Realms, allied with the Soul King, manipulating everyone behind the scenes……

Shítián Yǔlóng lightly pushed his glasses on his nose bridge and looked at Huangmu with trepidation.

This kid knows too much; I need to find time to send him to another world!

In response, Huangmu gazed at Shítián Yǔlóng with a slight upturn of the corners of his mouth.

What a pity, Shítián Yǔlóng made the same mistake as Lánrǎn Zǒngyòujì~

They didn't realize that, in front of Huangmu, some things cannot even be thought of~

Yes, who let Huangmu be able to eavesdrop on thoughts~

If we were to announce Huangmu's actions using the ability in the format of a new novel, it would be: 'After I Could Eavesdrop on Thoughts, the Villains All Broke Down~'

The new book's title is 'Starting from Pirates to Become a Behind-the-Scenes Big Boss'; the male lead transmigrates into a Celestial Dragon, then begins the impart story, eventually using Im and the World Government's money to build his own power, letting Im break down~ Tomorrow serialization begins! Moreover, this book isn't finished yet; it will settle the affairs of Hell, then, like the previous volume, there will be some side stories involving other worlds, estimated to be written by mid-month or end of month, about ten to twenty chapters?!

(End of chapter)
