“Bankai!!

Kokujō Tengen Myō’ō!!”

With a thunderous roar from Komamura Sajin, a massive, armored samurai rose from the earth, towering high above the land.

“Whoa…”

Not far off, Kaelith stood atop a small hill, voicing his admiration. Kokujō Tengen Myō’ō had changed considerably from the first time he’d seen it. Under Mayuri Kurotsuchi’s direction, Komamura’s Bankai had been m...

Ron paused for a moment.

“Do you know why I arranged things differently for you and Ruco?”

“No, I don’t.”

Ponzu shook her head.

“Because your potential is higher than Ruco’s,” Ron said. “I believe your ability will be useful to my team. Ruco’s situation, however, is different. Teaching her Nen was more of an investment on my part, and the result is already clear—her talent isn’t exactly crucial for my team. That’s why...

A brilliant gold fireball blazed in Natsu’s hands. Even from a distance, one could feel its scorching heat.

“Go!”

With a forceful throw, Natsu hurled the fireball like a baseball toward the ground. The instant it landed, it exploded and spread in every direction. In the blink of an eye, the entire area was transformed into a sea of flames, burning away every vine in sight. Ron could almost hear countless wails echoing through the inferno.

After a long...

Kuchiki Sōjun had a dream.

In the dream, he was killed by a Menos while on a mission to protect civilians. After his death, his father placed rigorous demands on Byakuya, and through countless efforts, Byakuya eventually grew into a Shinigami skilled enough to serve as a Captain. Later on, Byakuya married. Because his wife came from the Rukongai, weak in spiritual power and of low birth, the nobles clashed with Byaku...

Ron realized that if this young man recognized Ponzu, it likely meant he was one of the survivors from Ponzu’s village. With that thought, Ron immediately stopped attacking. Instead, he signaled Natsu and Uchiha Sasuke to restrict the young man’s movements. Ron wanted some information from him.

“You know Ponzu? Are you from Ponzu’s village? What exactly happened there?”

However, at the mention of Ponzu’s name, the young man’s expression twisted even...

Leo raised his Powered Arm Bracer.

The bullet bounced off the bracer.

He followed up with another shot, taking out the Maelstrom who dared to fight back.

Blood sprayed from the man’s face, splattering his companion.

That last Maelstrom did the most foolish, most forbidden thing to do in a fight:

he turned and ran, showing his back to the enemy.

Scrambling on hands and feet, he fled the narrow alley.

Before he could even feel relie...

Ron watched as the woman finished talking to Gogus. With a quick mental command, he dismissed Sasuke, and then he, Ponzu, and Ruco headed down the mountain path. More members of Gogus’s team arrived one by one, but only Gogus actually went into the village; the rest stayed outside, setting up a small support base.

Ruco, having just awakened her Nen ability, was still excited and hoping for a chance to test it out. Ponzu, however, seemed dazed; she clearly couldn’...

“Whaaat did you say?!”

Yoruichi dropped down behind Kaelith, landing beside Byakuya. With a wicked grin, she grabbed the boy’s cheeks and tugged them back and forth. Byakuya tried using Shunpo to dodge, but his footwork was like a child crawling when compared to Yoruichi’s skill—utterly useless.

“You little brat. If Kaelith can transform into a cat, then why am I the only ‘cat demon’?”

Ron heard a startled cry and quickly looked at the laptop screen. There, in Sasuke’s live feed, stood a young girl—apparently alive. The shout had come from Gogus.

“Finally found someone still breathing!” Gogus exclaimed, clearly excited at the prospect of questioning this survivor. If he could learn what happened to the village, it would be a huge step for his research.

Ponzu also fixed her gaze on the screen. The girl’s eyes, however, were dull and va...

Ron looked at Ponzu and Ruco.

“Good thing I accepted Chairman Netero’s request.

“Good thing I specifically picked you two for training.

“Once you both develop your personal Nen abilities, my Observer’s Insight will hit exactly one hundred percent—no more, no less. If I can raise Observer’s Intent to one hundred percent in one go, that’s ideal. Waiting another year would delay a lot of plans and waste too much time.

The entire Seireitei had fallen into chaos.

It appeared that the Central Great Underground Prison had been invaded by the Wandenreich, and two high-security convicts were missing. Yamamoto Shigekuni, Kaelith, and Shunsui Kyōraku immediately began investigating the scene. That same afternoon, a Captain’s Meeting was convened.

All captains assembled at the First Division barracks, standing in two rows. Yamamoto stood...

No one would dare come to his aid. In Night City, calling NCPD already made you a model citizen; actually getting between a black-market dealer and four unknown assailants was a fool’s errand.

As for surveillance cameras—this was Night City, not Sairis (the fictional super-surveilled region). All of the States combined didn’t have as many cameras as a single big city in Sairis did.

The dealer, well aware of this reality, didn’t dare put up a fight. Tremb...

Gogus, having regained some of his strength, began treating the abnormalities on his body. He took out a sharp dagger.

Slash!

A leaf sprouting from his flesh was severed with ease. The cut was flush against his skin, and a liquid oozed from the wound—red in color, similar to blood but mixed with something else. Gogus leaned in to study it.

“When the wound bleeds, it’s a blend of the host’s blood and the bug’s blood.”

A drop of the ...

Sasuke sprang lightly off the ground. Scaling the trunk with effortless agility, he soon reached the hollow in the tree. Ponzu’s eyes widened when the camera feed showed the interior: it was filled with dead bees. Among them lay the corpse of the Bee Queen, and an intensely eerie aura had gathered around it—far denser than anywhere else in the village.

The moment Sasuke arrived, that aura seemed to find a target. It surged forward like a swarm, but since Sasuke was...

“How much is this?” Aizen asked.

Behind the counter, the elderly shopkeeper grinned.

“Vice-Captain Aizen, you’ve got a good eye. This is our newest model—there’s not another one like it in the entire Soul Society! Since you’re a regular, I’ll give you my lowest price: sixty thousand kan. What do you think?”

“Hm…” Aizen thought for a few seconds, then shook his head.

It was a promising start.

“Everyone get in; I just picked up a gig. I’ll fill you in on the way.”

…

They headed to Jig-Jig Street—an indulgent, seedy locale dominated by vice. Surrounded by towering buildings, it was like so many other dim corners of Night City, forever untouched by sunlight: grimy and squalid.

Leo parked along the curb, and the four of them walked past a holo-projection of a sakura tree. Petals of virtual blossom drifted d...

“Don’t rush, Gogus,” Ron said. “Whatever’s in that village isn’t going anywhere, and we need to know what it really is before we go. My friend’s grandmother is still there, after all. You just mentioned ‘those bugs’—could you tell me more?”

Gogus stared at Ron. Ron met his gaze calmly. Neither was about to back down. Ron needed more information before taking any action, while Gogus wanted immediate access to whatever lurked in the village. Even th...

The phone in the old woman’s hand was still connected, and Ponzu’s voice echoed from it. Clearly, this was Ponzu’s grandmother. Yet from what they could see on-screen, she looked very much dead.

Ron spoke through Sasuke’s camera feed. “Check if that person’s alive.”

Sasuke approached, letting a flare of aura probe the old woman’s body. A moment later, he shook his head at the camera.

She was already dead.

Which meant Ponzu’s grandmo...

Laughter rang out, bold and boisterous, as Kaelith shot toward Azashiro Kenpachi with righteous fervor.

“Ze-ha-ha-ha-ha!!”

Fiery jets blasted from Kaelith’s shoulders as he rocketed forward, smashing another fist at Azashiro. Azashiro didn’t even bother dodging; he knew it was pointless anyway. He took the blow head-on and exploded into flecks of reishi once again.

A second later, his figure rea...

“Anytime you’re ready,” Leo said.

“All right, starting in three, two, one…”

A sudden burst of white light flared from the BD wreath, filling his vision completely.

It felt like the flash lasted only an instant; when the scene cleared, Leo was stunned.

“This is… the moon?”

A star-studded sky arched overhead. Beneath his feet lay grayish lunar soil. Off in the distance, he could just make out a moon city.

He had tried brai...

Ponzu took a deep breath. “Anyone who’s been sick for too long ends up dying. That’s why the villagers were forced to lock the little girl away in a small hut. As she grew older, the infection spread even faster, so no one dared go near that place. We don’t even know if she’s still alive.

“There are also people in the village whose bodies sprout plant-like growths—like leaves on a tree. Under normal conditions, they don’t feel much, but if they get clos...

Ron’s three companions were amazed at what they saw. None of them could tell where Ron had produced the laptop from—almost as if it had appeared out of thin air. Ron didn’t explain. Once they developed their own abilities, they would naturally find out.

He opened his email.

“There’s a group of assassins called ‘Nightfall’ planning to kill a noble named Karu. Tuck’s job is to protect Karu. But according to the intel, at least three assassins will b...

“Hrah!!”

Under Azashiro Kenpachi’s astonished gaze, Kaelith dashed right up and unleashed a fierce punch.

Boom!!

Kaelith’s fist instantly tore through Azashiro Kenpachi’s body. Azashiro’s feet lifted off the ground slightly as he arched backward. Then, with a light crackle, he dissolved into motes of reishi, vanishing into thin air.

“Oh…?”

Kaelith glanced at his own hand, still...

Leo blocked the katana slashing in from the right.

As for the blade swinging in from the left, he had no sword free—and didn’t need one. He simply reached out his left hand, the Powered Arm Bracer clamping onto the blade.

The Ripper, completely unprepared for this development, looked shocked. He tried pulling with all his might, but no matter how hard he yanked, he could not pry the katana free from the bracer’s grip. Both men were locked together, straini...

Chōjirō Sasakibe’s expression changed the moment he heard Yamamoto mention that name.

Yhwach…

For a Shinigami of his generation, that name was practically a curse. Nine hundred years earlier, the King of the Quincy, Yhwach, had led the Sternritter to invade the Soul Society, wreaking immense destruction and casualties. Back then, corpses had piled up everywhere, rivers of blood flowing freely. To end the ca...

Hanzo listened to Ruco as she introduced Nen to him, finding it somewhat odd. Someone who hadn’t passed the Hunter Exam was now explaining things to him, a successful examinee? Was this so-called Nen really that powerful? Was it the reason Ron and the others seemed so strong? Even someone like Elita, who didn’t stand out much, was also that formidable?

Before, Hanzo had assumed only Hisoka, Ron, and Illumi were on a different level from him.

“Now I’ll exp...

Ron wasn’t entirely satisfied with the results, nor was he completely disappointed. The fact that Ponzu’s overall potential could reach B-rank pleasantly surprised him. However, Ruco’s limit capped at C-rank, which felt a bit underwhelming. After all, Sally was already at C-rank, meaning that if Ruco kept training, she’d only be on par with Sally—unless something special happened later, or unless there was some factor Chii’s model had failed to detect.

“The client is still alive. Although they sustained secondary injuries from the crash, there was hope as long as backup arrived in time to get them to a hospital.”

Hearing that, the team leader felt a bit more at ease and used his communicator to request reinforcements.

Just then, a scream rang out. Two katana blades pierced the chest of a Trauma Team member standing guard. The guard was lifted into the air, and then the blades tore apart in opposite directi...

A mournful cry rang out from inside the room.

“‘My life is over!!’ …What’s going on?”

Kisuke Urahara frowned, confused.

Lately, he had been sneaking off to Hueco Mundo whenever he could to watch Aizen’s Hōgyoku experiments. At first, Aizen had treated him rather dismissively: although there was no attempt to hide the data (all of it was laid open for Kisuke to study), Aizen always spoke as ...

Ponzu and Ruco exchanged a glance and both nodded.

“We understand.”

“Alright. I’ll open your aura nodes right now.”

Seated cross-legged in front of Ron, the two women—one taller, the other shorter—had changed into white, loose-fitting training clothes better suited for movement. Despite the similarity of their attire, the contrast in their temperaments remained obvious. Ponzu was petite, while Ruco had a noticeably more mature presence. ...
