Chapter 1507: The Vicious Ichimaru Gin

~8 min read 1,599 words

Finally having resolved the heart-worrying threat of Death Omen, Su Xiao, in front of the plasma net, felt much more relaxed.

Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang began to remove the 【Negative Ion Plasma Superconducting Device】. Although this thing was a consumable, it wasn't a one-time item. As long as the "negative ion plasma liquid" inside the metal rods wasn't exhausted, it could be reused. Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang treated this thing like a treasure, saying it was a symbol of friendship.

Death Omen's flightiness had clearly angered Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang, which was why he brought out this trump card for trapping enemies. Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang's little treasury was not to be underestimated. Su Xiao often gave Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang "pocket money," but this so-called "pocket money" was already a huge sum for some Qiyuezhe. Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang didn't have many places to spend Paradise Coins, so he saved them over time.

The money-grubbing cat Benny was very envious of this and often "borrowed" from Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang under the guise of financial management. In most cases, Benny lost so much she doubted her cat life. When Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang came to collect the debt, Benny would pretend not to hear. This was also the main reason for the "duels" between the cat and the dog.

The plasma net was quickly removed, and Death Omen and Saye-Nod turned into fly ash. If nothing else, Saye-Nod, this "old grandfather," had high hopes for Death Omen. Death Omen was defeated, and it didn't surrender to Su Xiao but intended to have Su Xiao be buried with Death Omen.

Su Xiao certainly didn't get buried with Death Omen, but the century egg creature created by her and Saye-Nod was smashed by the energy shockwave.

After the century egg creature died, that strange fluctuation also disappeared, which made Su Xiao feel much more at ease. For some reason, he felt a sense of palpitation just by sensing that strange aura.

Clearing rule-breakers was like this. These guys were different from ordinary Qiyuezhe; heaven knows what strange abilities they had. For example, Death Omen could even interfere with the flow of time to a small extent.

Among the rule-breakers Su Xiao had cleared, some had dual reincarnation marks, some could teleport around the world, some could summon tens of thousands of powerful creatures, and some were even a combination of rule-breaker + employee + Void creature.

There was no most bizarre, only more bizarre. Death Omen's abilities were also strange; she was both close combat and long-range, and perhaps had mage abilities, but because of Su Xiao's identity as an Extinct Shadow, she didn't use mage abilities to court death.

The noise Su Xiao and Death Omen made during their battle had already attracted many Rukongai civilians. They hid in the distance to watch, and some might have already gone to notify the Seireitei.

As a wanted criminal of the Seireitei, Su Xiao certainly couldn't stay here for long. Moreover, Aizen's plan was coming to an end today. After resolving Death Omen, he prepared to participate in this matter.

9:00 AM, Seireitei, on the drawbridge of the Penitence Palace.

Several Shinigami wearing gray clothes and the same fabric hoods walked on the drawbridge. Except for their eyes, they wrapped their bodies tightly.

The identity of a Penitence Palace guard was inevitably hated, which was why they had such strange attire. At this moment, these Penitence Palace guards were escorting a young girl.

The girl was wearing white plain clothes, and a red leather ring was worn around her neck. This thing completely sealed her Reiatsu, making her almost like an ordinary soul with no combat power.

The girl whose hands were bound was Kuchiki Rukia. Today was her execution day. She would be escorted from the Penitence Palace to the Sokyoku and executed.

After learning of the death sentence, Kuchiki Rukia had been afraid for a period of time, but in the following days, she gradually figured it out and was mentally prepared for today's execution.

Kuchiki Rukia slowed her pace and looked up at the sky. She seemed to have nothing left to be nostalgic about; continuing to live would only implicate those who wanted to save her.

Thinking of this, Kuchiki Rukia smiled. But just as she was preparing to walk frankly toward death, a smiling man walked toward her. Seeing this man, Kuchiki Rukia's thoughts were interrupted.

"Good morning, Rukia."

The smiling Ichimaru Gin walked toward her.

"Ichimaru... Gin."

Rukia instinctively wanted to step back, but she suddenly thought, she was about to be executed, why fear this "poisonous snake"? She had even looked past life and death, yet she was afraid of a "snake"? How absurd.

Thinking of this, Rukia's expression became much calmer.

"Miss Rukia, you are still so impolite. Don't call me Gin, you should call me Captain Ichimaru. If you do this again, I will tell your brother."

Ichimaru Gin had come here to ensure Rukia was sent to the Sokyoku, to prevent her from being hijacked by those Ryoka. But Rukia's previous attitude made him feel it was interesting, so he prepared to tease her.

"Excuse me, Captain Ichimaru."

Rukia actually didn't want to deal with Ichimaru Gin, but he blocked her way. The Penitence Palace guards behind her, who were originally arrogant, became cowards at this moment, not daring to say a word.

"Hahaha, just joking, don't take it seriously. I won't tattle, don't mind what I said before, we're so familiar with each other."

Ichimaru Gin's attitude changed, pulling a "suddenly becoming an old acquaintance" move. In a residential house a few kilometers away, Su Xiao pressed the headset on his ear.

"Gin, Aizen told you not to tease Kuchiki Rukia. After confirming her authenticity, let her pass."

At this moment, Su Xiao, Ichimaru Gin, Aizen, and Tosen Kaname were maintaining contact. As for the method of contact, it was naturally provided by Su Xiao. He had the identity of a researcher, and Aizen wouldn't doubt it even if he brought out some high-tech equipment. Or rather, as long as it was good for the plan, Aizen didn't care about the source of such communication tools.

On the drawbridge in front of the Penitence Palace, Ichimaru Gin reached out and pressed his ear hole. He couldn't reply to Su Xiao now.

"Why would Captain Ichimaru come to such a place?"

Kuchiki Rukia narrowed her eyes; she felt Ichimaru Gin had ill intentions.

"Well, I just happened to be taking a walk nearby, so I came to tease you."

Ichimaru Gin was answering Kuchiki Rukia, and also answering Su Xiao. The general meaning was that he found Kuchiki Rukia very interesting and was prepared to continue teasing this girl.

"Vicious guy, whatever you want."

Su Xiao ignored Ichimaru Gin and lit a cigarette.

On the drawbridge.

"What's wrong? Suddenly silent."

Ichimaru Gin still had that smiling, punchable expression.

"Nothing."

"Speaking of which, those people who want to save you aren't dead yet, but... they will all die, in the near future."

Hearing this, Kuchiki Rukia's expression was somewhat displeased.

"How pitiful, to save you, your friends will all lose their lives."

"Don't talk nonsense!"

Rukia suddenly became tough, and Ichimaru Gin's mouth curled up even more.

"Are you afraid?"

"..."

"You don't want them to die, so you suddenly start to be afraid. Fear will stimulate your desire to survive. How about... let me save you."

Ichimaru Gin released his Reiatsu while speaking.

"Captain Ichimaru..."

Those Penitence Palace guards panicked. They felt more and more that something was wrong. If another captain had said this, they would only think the other party was joking, but with Ichimaru Gin, he really might do it. This guy didn't show his feelings on his face, and no one knew what he was thinking.

"What are you saying, this is also..."

Ichimaru Gin ignored the Penitence Palace guards. He slowly walked in front of Kuchiki Rukia. The powerful Reiatsu made cold sweat seep out on Rukia's face. She felt Ichimaru Gin really would act; that Reiatsu was definitely not a joke!

But Rukia couldn't figure it out. Why would Ichimaru Gin do this? Could it be that Kurosaki Ichigo had brought in reinforcements?

"How about it? As long as you nod, I can save you now."

Ichimaru Gin's Reiatsu made the Penitence Palace guards start to tremble, and Rukia stared at him blankly.

Ichimaru Gin raised his hand, and the Penitence Palace guards even had the urge to turn and run for their lives.

A hand pressed lightly on Rukia's head, and Ichimaru Gin leaned forward, making eye contact with her.

"I lied."

"?"

Rukia stared blankly at Ichimaru Gin. In the moment just now, she didn't know if it was an illusion or not, but she really thought the other party was going to save her.

Ichimaru Gin turned and walked away, waving his hand with his back to Rukia.

"Bye-bye, Rukia-chan, next time we'll meet at the Sokyoku."

Watching Ichimaru Gin's gradually receding back, Rukia's pupils trembled. She had already looked past life and death, but after being teased by Ichimaru Gin, she had once again developed a desire to live, which caused fear to well up in her heart—fear of death.

Ichimaru Gin was just that vicious. His actions were like handing a cup of water to a traveler dying of thirst in the desert. Just as the traveler was about to drink the water, Ichimaru Gin smilingly told the other party that it was actually sulfuric acid. ===== CHAPTER 1508 =====
