Chapter 4 - Shirona vs Osaka Team
I held my chest. My heart was beating wildly inside my body. More than that, the sound was ringing in my head. Blood rushed through me. For some reason, the pain in my ears had vanished. Touching them, they were back to normal. Regenerated. But my piercings were gone. I realized they no longer existed anywhere.
"Hey wait a sec. There's still an item left."
"Not 5 marks, it's 7. The inconsistent appearances ain't good."

Chapter 102 - A Grand Diplomatic Mission
A few days later, outside of Peng City.
The diplomatic envoy was fully prepared. Sage Ruler Han Yue stood facing the wind, her slender willow leaf eyebrows twisted into the shape of the character "川" (chuan).
The Sage Ruler was displeased because Fan Li was late. The convoy of several hundred diplomats was fully prepared, yet Fan Li, the chief envoy, had still not arrived.
"Could Fan Li have seen through that I plan to make ...

Chapter 101 - Entering the Palace for an Audience
“What are you thinking about?”
“I’m telling you to raise it like a child.” Fan Li was at a loss whether to laugh or cry. He had just realized that Wu Gang was somewhat paranoid. But why should he take the blame for the Overlord of Chu?
Wu Gang was stunned. “Raise a child...?” She had lived for over a thousand years, yet she was still a single dragon, without even a mate, let alone offspring.

Chapter 83 - Alice Synthesis Thirty
Sure enough, the more at ease Ginrei Kuchiki felt when Ailin was the Kuchiki family's son-in-law, the more fearful he now felt.
Especially with Ailin's furious spiritual pressure eruption just now being much stronger than six years ago.
Carefully thinking back, it seemed only when Haruko was sick and in order to prevent her condition from worsening further did Ailin's spiritual pressure stop growing.

Chapter 82 - Fury, Turning Against Each Other
Especially regarding Kidō, Ailin's mastery all came from masters two hundred years in the future. Even Kisuke Urahara's current Kidō seemed a bit immature before Ailin.
At first, Ailin only gave Kisuke Urahara a hand, checking for omissions and filling in gaps. But near the end, seeing that the three days agreed with Ginrei Kuchiki was nearing its end, Ailin directly kicked Kisuke Urahara aside and set up the barrier himself, compl...

Boom! Boom!
Byakuya's battle with Senbonzakura continued underground in Kisuke Urahara's secret base. The surging waves of cherry blossom blades were shattered again and again.
Every time Byakuya swung his "White Emperor Sword," the whirlwind around the sword would turn into a powerful slash, breaking through Senbonzakura's tidal waves. However, even more waves would follow to overwhelm Byakuya's attacks.
The surrounding hills in the ...

Then, a small part of the blades from the swirling dragon separated and formed a pink dragon that rushed at Senbonzakura.
Facing Byakuya's attack, on the hilt of Senbonzakura's sword, a large number of cherry-colored blades sprouted out like a waterfall and rushed at the pink dragon.
However, Senbonzakura's straightforward attack was far inferior compared to Byakuya's accelerated swirling storm dragon.

Regarding the act of betraying the Soul King, each family had its own thoughts.
For example, the Tsunayashiro Family wanted to steal the Soul King's power and take his place.
The Shiba Family wanted to lay everything bare before the world, allowing the world to judge this group of traitors.
The Kuchiki Family wanted to maintain the existing order and preserve the world the Soul King had envisioned.

He looked around. It was like a small, self-contained world, yet there were no mountains, rivers, flowers or grass, only an empty white space.
"System, do a scan. What exactly is going on here?" Fan Li asked in his mind. To his surprise, the little white cat had also been transported here...

"It must be the Tsunayashiro Family." These words were spoken by Ailin. Although it was a question, Ailin's tone was that of a statement.
"What?" Byakuya was stunned. "That can't be, Uncle. Wasn't the Tsunayashiro Family wiped out more than twenty years ago?"
"It was the Tsunayashiro Family." In the end, Ginrei Kuchiki affirmed Ailin's words.

In Kisuke Urahara's underground base, Ailin walked out from the blue spatial vortex between two pillars.
Without deliberately concealing his spiritual pressure, he hurried towards the Kuchiki Family manor.
After all, as a captain dismissed by the Captain-Commander of the Gotei 13, Ailin's Zanpakuto had been reclaimed by the Gotei 13. On the surface, without a Zanpakuto, Ailin could not pa...

These people who were forcibly coerced by Ailin to relocate were extremely afraid of him. After all, in this era where firearms had not yet developed, Ailin who could cause such great destruction with a casual wave of his hand was no different from a god or demon in the eyes of the simple villagers.
However, everyone was very respectful towards Haruko Kuchiki. On one hand, Haruko Kuchiki was the wife of Lord Ailin, and no one dared to disrespect her.

Although he had used Omnipotent Five Sights and not discovered any problems with the two Gigais, Ailin still wanted to play it safe and try it first before letting Haruko use it.
Kisuke Urahara's Zanpakuto Benihime was one of the first captain-class Zanpakutos that Ailin had created. From Benihime, Ailin had absorbed over 200 years of Ki...

The "Garganta" used by Hollows entering the Human World or Soul Society is a kind of "instinctive" use of spatial abilities by Hollows.
Kisuke Urahara was able to analyze the spatial power within the "Garganta" and created the Senkaimon, truly deserving to be the most intelligent Shinigami.
Because the Senkaimon created by Kisuke Urahara belonged to "smuggling", there were no safety guarantees. It was very likely to encounter spatial sto...

However, today, Ailin would become the first captain to be "dismissed".
In a sense, it was also nailing Ailin to the pillar of shame for the captains. With Ailin's powerful strength, would he willingly have his status and position stripped away?
Thinking of this, several captains had already placed their hands on the Zanpakutōs at their waists. If Ailin resisted, they would release their Zanpakutōs at the first moment.
Otherwise, based on the ...

It was impossible for Byakuya Kuchiki to completely dodge such intensive attacks. At this moment, he could only use Shunpo to move away while using the sword condensed from Senbonzakura's blades to split the incoming Senkei shards. On the other side, he used his left hand to control the other half o...

Layers upon layers of sakura blade storms were shattered by Senkei's fragments. But ...

In fact, Ailin's words made Byakuya Kuchiki truly believe that he had failed to fully utilize his Zanpakutō's potential.

On the contrary, the "upper limit" was the strongest power he could exert.
