Bleach: The Path to Transcendence

“You came to congratulate us, why didn't you say so earlier! Your hand has already been chopped off!”

At this moment, this slightly absurd thought arose in the minds of both Ye Chuan and Aizen.

Of course, neither Ye Chuan nor Aizen were benevolent individuals, so they would never relinquish what they had already obtained. Since the other party's hand had already been chopped off, they could only accept their misfortune.

After all, they were both extremely interested in the power of Hell!

“Rumble!”

Just as the person claiming to be Shiba finished speaking, another violent tremor came from the Gates of Hell.

Clearly, other beings in Hell were engaging him in combat. From time to time, strange roars and obscure languages could be heard, making it obvious that more and more beings were gathering on the Hell side.

“They all want to take this opportunity to break out of the Gates of Hell.”

“Binding Art Number Eighty-One — Danku!”

Aizen then unleashed Danku, firmly blocking the two Gates of Hell.

After completing all of this, the two turned their heads simultaneously, looking at Urahara Kisuke on the roof of the opposite building. Urahara Kisuke immediately understood their gazes.

“Two minutes at most, and I can complete the analysis of the Gates of Hell!”

Hearing this, Aizen Sōsuke and Ye Chuan immediately used their methods to continue blocking the Gates of Hell.

Of course, if they unleashed their full power, there would naturally be no need for such trouble, and they would even have the confidence to rush into Hell and compete with the terrifying beings within.

However, doing so would very likely lead to the collapse of the World of the Living, which was connected to the Gates of Hell, so they would naturally not do so, and could only cooperate with Urahara Kisuke to complete the analysis.

Time passed second by second. Two minutes later, Urahara Kisuke raised Benihime in his hand, drawing a circle in the air, and then a dark red halo appeared.

A moment later, a peculiar pulling force suddenly surged around the Gates of Hell, and the entire Gates of Hell gradually disintegrated.

In an instant, the magnificent Gates of Hell instantly turned into dust and dissipated. Seeing the Gates of Hell disappear, Urahara Kisuke revealed a satisfied smile.

Immediately afterward, he followed the same method and began to close the second Gate of Hell. As expected, after a while, both Gates of Hell had completely dissipated. The space above, which was originally filled with ghostly wails, was now completely restored to tranquility.

“As expected of Urahara Kisuke, he actually completely analyzed the Gates of Hell in such a short time!”

Ye Chuan secretly praised in his heart.

Seeing that the problem had been solved and the Gates of Hell had disappeared, Ye Chuan, who was in the Garganta, realized that Kurosaki Ichigo was completely safe, so he completely closed the Black Coffin, turning into a dark golden stream of light and returning to Las Noches.

Aizen, who was completely cloaked in a shadow cloak, saw Ye Chuan leave and focused his gaze on Urahara Kisuke, who was standing there.

“Urahara Kisuke, hand over the Hōgyoku, and I will spare you.”

To this, Urahara Kisuke only smiled faintly, remaining silent.

Seeing this, Aizen Sōsuke immediately flashed forward, rushing in front of Urahara Kisuke, and directly stabbed out with his sword, piercing straight into his chest.

However, in the next moment, to his astonishment, Urahara Kisuke, who had been pierced by him, began to swell up like a balloon, and then directly exploded in place.

“What?”

After a while, there was no trace of Urahara Kisuke in the arena!

“Hmph, always playing some boring tricks, but fortunately this time was not without its rewards!”

Aizen's expression was calm, and he didn't feel frustrated by Urahara Kisuke's escape at all. He glanced at the small wooden box in his hand containing the pale large hand, and the corners of his mouth rose slightly. Then, he stopped paying attention to the situation here, directly opened the Senkaimon, and walked in.

Ishida Ryūken on the roof of the building breathed a sigh of relief only after seeing Ye Chuan and Aizen leave. At this moment, his back was already soaked with cold sweat.

From birth, he had been extremely sensitive to the spiritual particles. Especially when he encountered the mysterious man wearing the cloak, the terrifying existence in the Garganta, and the owner of the pale large hand in the Gates of Hell, just slightly sensing the aura of these people seemed to place him in a sea of knives and a mountain of fire.

Now that the Gates of Hell had been closed and those two uncontrollable existences had left, he was finally completely relieved.

In the delivery room where Kurosaki Masaki was, Kurosaki Ichigo, who had accidentally received the blessing of the Hell source, was no longer crying and became very quiet.

His bright big eyes blinked, looking at his extremely weak mother, curiously observing this world.

The extremely weak Kurosaki Masaki also revealed a maternal smile, looking at the little life in the incubator next to her.

The panting Kurosaki Isshin rushed into the delivery room, seeing that his wife and children were safe.

He also came to the incubator and carefully checked Kurosaki Ichigo inside. He found that the so-called source of Hell from before had not caused any adverse effects on his beloved son. Only then did he breathe a sigh of relief.

Not long after, in another delivery room, Katagiri Kanae also gave birth to a very delicate baby boy, whose appearance was seventy percent similar to his father, Ishida Ryūken.

“Roar!”

Ishida Ryūken, who had already breathed a sigh of relief, suddenly heard a muffled roar.

“Not good, it’s a Hollow!”

Tens of thousands of miscellaneous Hollows, which were originally affected by the spiritual particle aura emitted by Kurosaki Ichigo's birth, had already been eliminated by Ishida Ryūken in time.

However, coincidentally, there was a patient who died at Ishida Hospital at this moment. Originally, a newly dead soul would have to be immersed in resentment for more than half a month before transforming into a Hollow, but due to the roars of the tens of thousands of miscellaneous Hollows outside, this process was greatly shortened.

A wisp of newly dead soul wandering in the ward, summoned by tens of thousands of Hollows, actually transformed into a newborn Hollow in an instant, roaring and rushing towards the delivery room of Katagiri Kanae, who was closest to it.

Sensing this situation, Ishida Ryūken immediately ran towards the delivery room where his wife and children were.

“Bang!”

At the same time, the nurses and doctors in the delivery room where Katagiri Kanae was suddenly discovered that the door of the delivery room had collapsed with a bang. In the next moment, all the medical staff were directly knocked out by an invisible force, their lives unknown.

In the eyes of Katagiri Kanae, who was a Quincy, a newborn Hollow resembling a bullfrog was staring at her and Ishida Uryū in the incubator next to her.

Katagiri Kanae wanted to condense a spiritual particle bow and a sacred extermination arrow, but she found that she had just completed childbirth and was completely exhausted at this moment, her movements sluggish. Before her spiritual particle bow could be raised, she had already been pierced by the long tongue extended by the bullfrog Hollow in front of her!

“D*mn... d*mn it!”

Katagiri Kanae looked at the blood hole in front of her chest, and the bed that had already been soaked in her blood at this moment, and let out a unwilling and powerless roar, her vision gradually blurring.

Just as the scarlet long tongue of the bullfrog Hollow was about to pounce towards Ishida Uryū in the incubator next to her, a trace of blue light suddenly flickered in the eyes of the originally dying Katagiri Kanae.

In the next moment, the originally pierced Katagiri Kanae became unharmed, and even the bed that had been soaked in blood before was spotless at this moment, as if everything that had happened before was just an illusion.

On the contrary, a hideous blood hole surged out of the abdomen of the bullfrog Hollow, dark green blood flowing out, and in an instant, it turned into dust and dissipated.

Afterward, Ishida Ryūken, who rushed to the delivery room in a hurry, breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that his wife and children were safe.
