The millennium has arrived.

At this time, a riot suddenly broke out in the Hueco Mundo, which inevitably made people have some associations.

Especially since the Hueco Mundo had been devastated after the incident with Aizen, and the Great Hollows were almost extinct, a riot under such circumstances was unreasonable no matter how you looked at it, and it could only have been caused by external forces.

So where do external forces come from?
There is only the Quincy!
Byakuya Kuchiki's report was sent back quickly.

But he himself did not retreat.

Instead, he continued to stay in Hueco Mundo.

How can they win the war against the Quincies if they just become deserters just because some changes have occurred in the Hueco Mundo? Therefore, Byakuya Kuchiki decided to go to the place of unrest in person to find out the cause and determine whether this turmoil is really caused by the Quincies. If it is the Quincies, how many troops do they have?

"Determine the location of the unrest!"

Kuchiki Byakuya immediately gave orders to his men.

The Death God of the Sixth Squad immediately operated the instrument.

Although they are not from the 12th Division and are not technical personnel, after entering Hueco Mundo and setting up various surveillance devices in Hueco Mundo, they also received a period of training from the 12th Division and were able to operate these instruments skillfully.

"The specific location is..."

Soon, they locked on the specific location.

"Renji!"

Byakuya Kuchiki looked at his vice-captain, Abarai Renji.

Abarai Renji understood immediately.

Afterwards, the captain and deputy captain of the Sixth Division, along with some officers, left the base in Hueco Mundo in the face of heavy wind and sand.

……

In the wind and sand.

A team of Quincy also moved forward.

In front of them, some groups of Void that were entrenched here launched attacks on them one after another.

The two leading members of the Stern Cross Knights did not show up.

The Quincy behind them had already taken action.

The azure spirit particles gathered together and turned into sacred arrows of destruction.

shhhhhhhh!

The sound of arrows breaking through the air was heard, and the Holy Annihilation Arrows fell like rain. Even though these Voids rushed forward one after another, showing their madness, when the Holy Annihilation Arrows fell on them, they were still unable to resist. Their bodies were severely damaged by the Holy Annihilation Arrows, and then they died.

Because they were killed by the Quincy's power of "annihilation", their souls were annihilated in the process and they lost the chance to re-enter reincarnation.

"move on!"

After dealing with this group of troublesome virtual beings.

The two leading members of the Stern Cross Knights spoke.

Then, many Quincy moved forward.

It was not until they felt a spiritual vein that was extremely familiar to the Quincy that they stopped in their tracks at the same time.

"What an unpleasant smell!"

One of the two leaders was silent for a while and then spoke like this.

Beside him, another person also had a cold look in his eyes.

"It is indeed a Quincy."

Strong winds blew up the yellow sand, and in the rolling smoke and dust, Kuchiki Byakuya's white haori fluttered in the strong wind. His eyes were also fixed as he looked at the team in front.

Beside him, Abarai Renji also subconsciously grasped his Zanpakutō.

"Are they the Quincy?"

He was actually familiar with the Quincies. After all, Ichigo's classmate, Ishida Uryu, was a Quincy. Ishida Uryu often came to Soul Society to cooperate with Natsuki and Urahara Kisuke in conducting experiments. As a result, Abarai Renji got to know Ishida Uryu.

Of course, because there are fewer shared adventures, the relationship may not be as good as in the original book.

But this did not affect Abarai Renji's familiarity with the Quincy at all.

However, the Quincy of the Ishida family is still different after all.

After the Shinigami exterminated the Quincies two hundred years ago, the Ishida family was the first Quincies to defect to the Soul Society. They were willing to accept the surveillance of the Soul Society and throughout the generations, they actively cooperated with the Soul Society in conducting various experiments.

"It is really rare that the God of Death would appear in Hueco Mundo, and there are quite a few of them."

When Byakuya Kuchiki and the others were looking at the Quincy in front of them, the Quincy was also staring at them.

The two Quincies in the lead, one of whom had short white hair, a beard, and square-framed glasses, and looked a little older, couldn't help but comment.

Then he changed his tone and continued, "However, if we can bury all of you here, it would be a good thing. It would greatly boost our morale and it would be considered a victory."

"Then you can try it!"

Faced with the provocation of the Quincy, Byakuya Kuchiki also gave an extremely tough response.

So, in this vast desert, the battle broke out.

……

In Soul Society, when Byakuya Kuchiki's report was conveyed back, the entire Gotei 13 immediately went on high alert.

In the team leader's room.

Except for Byakuya Kuchiki, all the other captains gathered here.

"The Sixth Division sent back information that there was turmoil in the Hueco Mundo. Many Hollows disappeared at the same time. They even lost their spirit particle reactions. You should know that only those guys can do such a thing."

Captain Yamamoto stood at the head and told all the captains the seriousness of the matter.

When everyone heard this, they felt extremely heavy.

Although the captain did not reveal the name of that race, all the Death Gods knew it.

Since the Aizen incident, the Gotei 13 have been conducting various exercises continuously. What is the purpose of this?

Of course there is a reason.

It's just to deal with the Quincy.

For some reason, after learning what happened in Hueco Mundo, apart from the Shinigami who were worried about Byakuya Kuchiki and others in Hueco Mundo, more captains were relieved.

They hate enemies hiding in the dark more than enemies appearing in the open.

Because you are hiding in the dark, no one knows when the enemy will suddenly attack you.

On the contrary, the enemy has now revealed himself, which is a good thing.

All we have to do is defeat them all in a head-on battle.

"Do we need to go to Hueco Mundo?"

After the captain finished speaking, someone raised this question.

The questioner is Liu Che Quanxi.

In the past, Kensi Rokuguruma was a very arrogant and proud person. He boasted of his great strength and looked down upon anyone.

However, it seems that it is because there have been too many setbacks in recent years.

Both Natsuki and Aizen have an overwhelming advantage over him.

He gradually suppressed his arrogance and became much more humble.

I have to say, this is actually a good thing.

Perhaps his strength has not improved much, but with a little more caution, he will not be defeated directly at the beginning like in the original book.

Captain Yamamoto pondered for a while and made a decision.

Byakuya Kuchiki and Renji Abarai were fighting against the two leading Quincies.

Their luck is good.

Although the Quincies appeared in Hueco Mundo, they seemed to be just the advance troops. The two leading them seemed to be the leaders, while the Quincies behind them were ordinary team members.

Coincidentally, Byakuya Kuchiki and Renji Abarai are also the leaders.

So, a strange two-on-two situation, ordinary team members fighting against ordinary team members, occurred.

"You're too slow!"

The Thousand Cherry Blossoms were flying, and under the control of Byakuya Kuchiki, they attacked the old-looking Quincy named Robert Agutron. Although the opponent looked old, he was extremely fast, and the Quincy's unique step, the Flying Scythe Kick, was used to the extreme.

And his weapons are also different from those of ordinary Quincy.

The most common weapon of the Quincy is the bow and arrow. Their means of attack is called the Holy Arrow of Destruction, which is an arrow condensed from spirit particles.

However, not all sacred arrows are fired from bows.

For example, Robert's weapon is a white pistol.

The bullets condensed from spirit particles were released. They broke through the air, and with long tails, they flew towards Kuchiki Byakuya like arrows.

Byakuya Kuchiki's attainment in Shunpo is also quite good. Relying on his powerful Shunpo, he dodged the attacks while continuously attacking Robert. However, the problem lies here.

He can dodge his opponent's attacks, and his opponent can also dodge his attacks.

Senbonzakura's speed is really too slow.

Although it is indeed a very powerful sword, it can be avoided by relying on the advantage of speed.

So, it has to be faster.

Kuchiki Byakuya's eyes were fixed, and powerful spiritual pressure burst out from his body.

"Solution—"

In an instant, the Senbonzakura changed. The original Senbonzakura Shikai, except that the blade turned into a cherry blossom-like sharp blade flying in the air.

After Bankai, everything including the handle turned into a cherry blossom-shaped blade, and more cherry blossoms grew in the process.

Seeing that Byakuya Kuchiki was about to complete his Bankai, his opponent Robert was not surprised but happy.

"This is the time you've been waiting for!"

As he spoke, a star seal appeared in his hand. He aimed it at Byakuya Kuchiki. At the same time, he used the ability unique to a Quincy, using the unique power in the star seal to imitate Byakuya Kuchiki's spiritual pressure.

The Bankai of the God of Death is a very powerful force.

But this power is not invincible.

A thousand years ago, the Quincies had suffered losses at the hands of the Shinigami's Bankai, so after that war, they began to study the Shinigami's Bankai seriously.

Although more than a hundred years ago, the lepton space where they were hiding was discovered by the god of death and then destroyed.

But some research results have been preserved.

The star emblem you see before you is one of their achievements.

The Zanpakutō of the God of Death is a weapon formed by the power of the God of Death's soul engraved into the sword. Each sword has its own soul. Although it is derived from the soul of the God of Death, in fact, they are two different souls. The first release is okay, it only unlocks part of the power hidden in the soul of the God of Death into the Zanpakutō.

But this is not the case with Bankai.

All the power is released from the soul of the god of death and injected into the sword, which will gain extremely powerful power.

But on the other hand, the connection between the soul of the god of death and the soul of the Zanpakutō will become weak, and at this time, the god of death controls the Zanpakutō by relying on spiritual pressure.

Although during this process, the spiritual pressure of the god of death will surge.

But for the Quincy, manipulating spiritual energy is an innate ability.

If one could use special tools to imitate the Shinigami's spiritual pressure and spiritual waves, it would be enough to completely liberate the Shinigami and usurp the power of his Zanpakutō.

"Your Bankai will be mine."

Robert thought so in his heart, and the power of the Star Seal was stimulated to the extreme. However, the imagined scene of taking away Kuchiki Byakuya's Bankai and Kuchiki Byakuya's terrified expression after losing his Bankai did not appear. The Star Seal had lost its effectiveness.

"How could this be?"

Robert looked puzzled, dazed and horrified, and it turned out to be him.

"What is this guy doing?" Kuchiki Byakuya did not understand the function of the star seal, nor did he know what Robert was thinking. During this process, his Bankai was finally completed.

After Bankai, Senbonzakura Kageaki's speed is faster than in the initial state, and there are more cherry blossom-shaped blades.

When Robert was in a trance because the star was invalid.

Kuchiki Byakuya's attack instantly enveloped him.

Pain immediately surged through Robert's body.

At this moment, he couldn't help but think of death.

He has a deep fear of death.

Even though he had died once because his lepton space was destroyed, it was precisely because he had experienced the pain of death that he became more afraid of death.

Having finally survived, he didn't want to die like this.

"How dare a mere death god push me to this extent..."

Most of the time, Robert is a mature and stable person, consistent with his appearance, with only one exception, that is, when his life is in crisis.

In an instant, spirits from all directions gathered towards Robert.

Then, a dazzling light burst out from his body.

Kuchiki Byakuya's Senbonzakura Kageya was swept away.

Robert's new look surprised Byakuya Kuchiki.

I saw the spirit particle shrouding Robert's body, and behind him, a pair of concave and convex light wings condensed. The light covered his body like a veil. There was an extra book on his left hand, and the pistol in his right hand also underwent many changes.

"You actually let me use the Complete Sacred Body so quickly, Death God, you have enough to be proud of yourself."

Robert spoke to Byakuya Kuchiki.

The next moment, he pulled the trigger and the pistol in his hand released spirit bullets.

The terrifying attack instantly arrived in front of Byakuya Kuchiki, and Byakuya Kuchiki quickly retreated to defense.

boom! !

The thousand cherry blossoms exploded.

The power of this attack surprised Byakuya Kuchiki.

He quickly used the instant step to dodge the attack.

Robert was faster than him.

His figure flashed and suddenly appeared next to Byakuya Kuchiki, and attacked him again.

"Do you think that I am still the same person as before?"

He raised his pistol, and the spirit particles condensed into bullets, attacking Kuchiki Byakuya again.

Kuchiki Byakuya was unable to dodge and could only take it head-on.

boom!
Another loud noise was heard, stirring up the yellow sand in the virtual circle.

The figure of Byakuya Kuchiki emerged from the yellow sand, with pink cherry blossoms surrounding his body. If you look closely, you will find that his white captain's haori is stained with blood, and he is also injured.

He stared straight ahead with a serious expression.

"The weapon's power has increased, and more importantly, his speed has increased!" (End of this chapter)
