Chapter 722
Just as Hitsugaya Toushirou and Choujuurou, Temari, Kurotsuchi, Darui, and Haruno Sakura were about to say something, a mysterious force suddenly appeared beside them.
Feeling this mysterious force, a faint smile appeared on Hitsugaya Toushirou's face. It seemed that this time he would not need to go calm Natsu down himself.
"Little ones, why do you carry Slug Princess's mark? Has something happened in the Shinobi World? Tell me."
Behind Choujuurou, Temari, Kurotsuchi, Darui, Haruno Sakura, and Hitsugaya Toushirou, an old man appeared—immortal in bearing yet carrying a hint of vicissitudes.
Looking at this old man, Hitsugaya Toushirou was slightly surprised as well. This kind of ability to come and go without a shadow or trace, even he did not possess.
"You are the master of the Pure Land World, the so-called Sage of Six Paths, Otsutsuki Hagoromo, correct?"
Looking at the old man before him, a trace of a smile played on Hitsugaya Toushirou's face. Indeed, hard work never goes unrewarded—the preparations he had made earlier had truly paid off.
Now, neither Hitsugaya Toushirou nor Choujuurou, Temari, Kurotsuchi, Darui, and Haruno Sakura had taken the initiative to seek him out. Because they carried the Sage Slug's token, they were directly sought out by the Zhaoshang Sect of Otsutsuki Hagoromo.
"I am indeed Otsutsuki Hagoromo. Little ones, you still haven't told me why you've come to the Pure Land World."
"You haven't died, yet you carry Slug Princess's mark. What exactly has happened in the Shinobi World?"
Looking at Hitsugaya Toushirou's appearance, Otsutsuki Hagoromo already knew he was not a person of this world, but he also did not know why a person from another world would appear in the Shinobi World.
But he also knew that since Hitsugaya Toushirou had brought Choujuurou, Temari, Kurotsuchi, Darui, and Haruno Sakura to the Pure Land along with the Sage Slug's token, something must have happened.
Otherwise, he would not have taken the initiative to appear before Hitsugaya Toushirou, Choujuurou, Temari, Kurotsuchi, Darui, Haruno Sakura, and Natsu.
Looking at the Sage of Six Paths, Otsutsuki Hagoromo, Hitsugaya Toushirou steadied his emotions, a solemn air threading through his words.
"It's like this, Sage of Six Paths. I am a person from another world. In our world, a terrifying figure who wanted to destroy the world was defeated by us and then fled to this world."
"So we chased after him directly. To defeat that existence bent on destroying the world, we came straight here, but because we paid a terrible price when defeating him."
"Now, basically all the powerful existences in our world have been gravely wounded. To prevent him from threatening the safety of this world, I took it upon myself to bring them here, to seek your help."
Listening to Hitsugaya Toushirou's words, the Sage of Six Paths, Otsutsuki Hamura, fell silent. Of course, he did not know how many of the sentences Hitsugaya Toushirou spoke were true and how many were false.
But he knew that since Hitsugaya Toushirou had come to seek his help, it meant he felt a trace of fear toward that existence's power.
Such an existence was also a tremendous threat to him, so he too had to do something.
"Unfortunately, I am now merely a soul form and cannot do much. But I can help you summon the souls of some powerful beings from our world. With that, we should be able to defeat him, no?"
Looking at Hitsugaya Toushirou, the Sage of Six Paths, Otsutsuki Hagoromo, also felt some regret. Her current soul-form state was not in good condition either........
After so many years of consumption, even his power had grown extremely weak.
So for him, he could not go with Hitsugaya Toushirou and the others to the Shinobi World to deal with Aizen.
But he also thought of a method—to revive those once-powerful existences of the Shinobi World. With that, perhaps he could help Hitsugaya Toushirou and the others.
Looking at Choujuurou, Temari, Kurotsuchi, Darui, and Haruno Sakura beside Hitsugaya Toushirou, Otsutsuki Hagoromo's expression was also very calm.
Although he was the Shinobi World's guardian and its current strongest being, he could not lightly step out of the Pure Land. Otherwise, it would cause no small harm to the world.
Moreover, in his soul form, he was somewhat powerless. After all, for him, Aizen's strength could only be dealt with when he possessed a physical body.
Looking at Otsutsuki Hagoromo's appearance, Hitsugaya Toushirou had long anticipated this—or rather, he had long known that Otsutsuki Hamura was unwilling to come to the Shinobi World.
However, for such a situation, Hitsugaya Toushirou had long been prepared.
"No, those people's strength at its strongest only reaches a level like mine. To deal with them, it's still a bit lacking."
"We still need you to come in person. We Shinigami ourselves already appear in soul form, and we have a Gigai technique that can perfectly solve the body issue for you."
