Chapter 39 Yoruichi and Kisuke, the war is over!
The story of how Natsuki and Yoruichi met is not a very tortuous one.

It originated from Xia Mu’s solitary practice.

In the wars he participated in in the real world, he made great progress. The life-and-death battles with the Quincies, whose fighting style was completely different from that of the Hollows, allowed him to thoroughly master the slashing techniques taught by Unohana Retsu.

Based solely on his ability to kill, Xia Mu is already considered a strong man.

But he felt it was not enough.

In addition to his Zanpakutō, the Shinigami has four other abilities.

They are Zanpakutō, Zanpakutō and Zougui. He has now mastered the art of Zanpakutō. As for Kidō, thanks to the powerful talent brought by his Zanpakutō, his attainments in Kidō are also quite good, and he has even mastered the extremely unique Kaido.

The art of fighting, like the art of slashing, requires time and actual combat to hone. It is difficult to gain any results in a short period of time. The only difference is with instant movement. What Xia Mu needs to improve next is his attainments in instant movement.

In the battles of the modern world, countless Shinigami have died because their Flash Step was interfered with by the Quincies, making it impossible for them to avoid the Quincies' spirit particle arrows and thus their lives.

Xia Mu also experienced the difficulty of the Quincy's ability several times.

Don’t think that the Shinigami are suppressing the Quincy now.

But this is just an appearance. The truly powerful Quincy is still dormant.

Xia Mu remembered Youhabach and the Stern Cross Knights under his command.

Even though it was a long time ago and the abilities of the members of the Star Knights were too complex, it was impossible for him to correspond to everyone and remember everyone's abilities.

But we do know that the Quincy are a powerful threat.

The Zanpakutō that belongs unique to the God of Death may not be able to deal with the Quincy. Only by being strong in all aspects can one have a greater chance of winning when facing the Quincy.

Although the Quincy's ability can restrain Shunpo.

But that was simply because the Shinigami's instant step was not fast enough.

As long as the speed is fast enough, you can still ignore that restraint.

After all, the Quincy's manipulation of spirit particles is not instantaneous, but takes time.

If he could move directly in front of the Quincy in that short period of time and deal him a fatal blow, the battle could be resolved.

These are Xia Mu’s personal experiences in real-life battles.

Although this war could not be considered a just war, it did allow him to understand more about the Quincies.

Thanks to this, after returning to Soul Society, Xia Mu began to practice Shunpo.

The training ground of the 11th Division is fine for practicing slashing techniques and hand-to-hand combat, but the space is a bit small for practicing instant step, so Xia Mu specially found an uninhabited area to practice. Speaking of uninhabited areas, the best place is naturally Rukongai.

Near the residential area of ​​Rukongai, there is a large area of ​​uninhabited wilderness.

While Xia Mu was learning Shunpo there, he happened to meet Shihoin Yoruichi who was returning from a mission. The Shihoin family was a master of Shunpo and Hakutachi, especially the successive heads of the family, who had tried to innovate on these skills and created many secret techniques unique to the Shihoin family.

When she found out that Natsuki was practicing Shunpo in Rukongai, Yoruichi immediately became interested. She was a very outgoing person, so she took the initiative to greet Natsuki. After a few interactions, the two became familiar with each other.

After all, they are both vice-captains of the Gotei 13.

We didn't have much contact before, but after a little contact, we became friends.

Yoruichi learned a lot about the current war situation from Xia Mu.

As for Xia Mu, he received a lot of guidance from Yoruichi.

Afterwards, he practiced instant movement in the woods as Yoruichi said.

"You've practiced enough. How about a competition?"

Yoruichi was very direct and spoke to Natsuki.

Natsuki nodded.

So, the next two people started competing in instant step in the woods.

The final result was that Ye Yi won.

Among the many Shinigami in the original work, Yoruichi is considered to be the best in terms of Shunpo and is known as the God of Shunpo. Although Natsuki has some accomplishments in Shunpo, he is still far behind Yoruichi, a master who has been practicing Shunpo since childhood.

"Do you need to compete in a white fight?"

In the competition of instant movement, Xia Mu was defeated, and he asked Yoruichi again.

He had been familiar with Yoruichi in the past, and in addition to the occasional sparring match with him in terms of instant movement, he would also practice with Yoruichi and have a competition of white fighting.

After all, the 11th Division is a combat team. Xia Mu is able to serve as the deputy captain of the 11th Division, so he is naturally a rare and strong man.

Ye Yi was unwilling to miss the opportunity to compete with such a strong man.

"forget it."

Yoruichi shook her head and rejected Xia Mu's proposal.

"Today I will take you to meet a new friend."

She showed a strange smile on her lips and said to Xia Mu.

"New friend?" Xia Mu was a little curious when he heard this.

Yoruichi used the flash step to lead the way, and Xia Mu followed behind her. Soon, under Yoruichi's lead, she came to a secret base not far from here and met a new friend. The other party was wearing a black death suit, with short light yellow slightly curled hair and military green eyes. He habitually lowered his head, and there was a sense of "dejection" on him, which made him look a little unconfident.

"really!"

After seeing this figure, Xia Mu couldn't help but feel such emotion in his heart.

Yoruichi and Urahara Kisuke have a close relationship. They are childhood friends and have been training and growing up together since they were very young. It can be said that Urahara Kisuke is Yoruichi's best friend. When Yoruichi proposed to introduce him to a new friend, Natsuki thought of this person first.

"Kisuke, let me introduce you. This is the vice-captain of the 11th Division, Natsuki. He is a new friend of mine. Natsuki is very strong. During this period of time, I have learned a lot from sparring with him."

"I thought you happened to be practicing here, so I'd like to introduce you to each other."

Yoruichi first spoke to Urahara Kisuke.

He turned around and introduced Urahara Kisuke to Natsuki.

In this way, Natsuki and Urahara Kisuke got to know each other.

After they got to know each other, Ye Yi introduced this special training base to Xia Mu.

This place is located below the Double Killing Hill and was opened up by her and Urahara Kisuke when they were young.

It is extremely hidden. In the past, they practiced white fighting and slashing techniques here. As for instant step, she chose to practice it in the woods.

Natsuki listened quietly to Yoruichi's story, and in his mind, he thought of the place where Kurosaki Ichigo practiced Bankai.

This should be the place.

This place is located below the Hill of Two Killings. After successfully learning Bankai here, Ichigo Kurosaki can go directly to the Hill of Two Killings to rescue Rukia Kuchiki, which greatly saves time.

The acquaintance with Urahara Kisuke and Yoruichi helped Natsuki gain more friends in Soul Society, which added some new fun to his originally peaceful life, but that was all.

As time goes by.

The war between the Shinigami and the Quincies also quietly came to an end.

It doesn't mean that all the Quincies have been exterminated, but that the Grim Reaper has accomplished its purpose.

Rather, it was the intervention of a higher level that brought the war to an abrupt end.

In Soul Society, the Central Forty-six is ​​the highest judicial institution. There are those who have higher status than the Central Forty-six, such as the Five Great Nobles. If the Five Great Nobles wish, they can influence some of the decisions of the Central Forty-six, but normally they would not do such a thing, because it would seriously affect the order of Soul Society and make law and order no longer exist.

Even though there are many dirty behaviors among the nobles, and they ignore the laws of Soul Society and break the law, those things are all done in secret. It is another matter when they are brought to the surface.

This time, the main reason that led to the end of the war came from the Spirit King.

Where is the Spirit King hiding? Where do the royal family live?
To ordinary Grim Reapers, this is a secret.

Even the captain of the Gotei 13 may not know these secrets.

But the Spirit King does exist.

The five great nobles are all subordinates of the Soul King, with the rest of the nobles ranked below the five. The Gotei 13 are led by the Central 46 Chambers, which are composed of nobles. Naturally, the Soul King is the supreme being in Soul Society.

No one can defy the will of the Spirit King.

When the Soul King took the initiative to convey his will and stopped the God of Death from exterminating the Quincy, this war could only end in this way.

Although it was not possible to completely exterminate all the Quincies.

But it is a fact that in the war that lasted for several years, the Quincy's manpower was basically wiped out and they have become a rare species.

Facing the mercy of death.

The remaining Quincy could only be forced to "sign" a series of treaties. In addition to assisting Soul Society in dealing with Hollows when necessary, they also needed to live under the surveillance of Soul Society.

Such conditions are naturally very unfair.

But the Quincy had no choice.

The deaths of so many Quincy have proven that when facing the God of Death, the Quincy has no power to resist.

If they continue to resist, only death and the complete extinction of their race will await them.

And just like that, the war ended.

Xia Mu no longer needs to go back to the real world to fight.

After the battle, the 11th Squadron got a chance to recuperate.

Xia Mu also cherishes this time very much.

In addition to training with his new friends such as Yoruichi and Urahara Kisuke, he did not avoid fighting. Whenever a Hollow appeared in Rukongai, he was always one of the first to rush up and fight it.

Until this day.

When Natsuki was fighting Hollow in Rukongai.

An outsider came to the 11th Division and asked to challenge Kenpachi Gosuke.

This incident caused a sensation.
