Kurosaki Ichigo in Konoha

When Kurosaki Ichigo saw Uchiha Mirror, Uchiha Mirror had already noticed Kurosaki Ichigo's arrival, so he turned his head and smiled at Kurosaki Ichigo, "Long time no see, Master Ichigo."

"It's been a long time indeed, Kagami." Kurosaki Ichigo nodded in response and walked over at the same time.

Seeing Kurosaki Ichigo's actions, the ANBU around Uchiha Mirror became nervous, their bodies tensed, and their hands unconsciously touched their weapons, as if they were ready to capture him at any time.

Not to mention Kurosaki Ichigo's terrible record of killing many ANBU elite Jonin, the name of Uchiha Madara's adopted son was enough for them to stay in a tight position.

Uchiha Mirror noticed the movements of his subordinates and raised his hand slightly to let everyone not be nervous.

Seeing Kurosaki Ichigo walking to Nariko and Sanada Hirohiro along a path that the ANBU ninjas had made way for, Uchiha Kagami sighed, "It must have been ten years since we two saw you. It really makes me happy to be so tall and mature now.”

Ichigo Kurosaki looked at the Uchiha mirror carefully for a while before saying with emotion, "Although I say so, my changes are far less than yours."

This was not because Kurosaki Ichigo was looking for a topic to delay, but because he felt something in his heart after seeing Uchiha Mirror's appearance at this time.

Because the current Uchiha mirror has changed a lot compared to the original one.

Back then, he was heroic and high-spirited, and his popularity was not lost to the two Hokage candidates, Sarutobi Hiruzen and Shimura Danzo.Although he lacks a hint of maturity and stability, it does not damage his image of wisdom and shrewdness at all.

But now he has a sickly look on his face, his eyes are dark and sunken, his cheeks are yellow and thin, and his originally tall and slender figure has now become completely skinny and out of proportion. People can't help but worry about whether a breeze will blow over him. Can blow him down.

Uchiha Kage smiled bitterly, and was about to say something, but before he could say anything, he couldn't help but reached out and covered his mouth, coughing loudly, "Cough cough cough cough."

It took about a few minutes for Uchiha Mirror to stop coughing violently and looked at Kurosaki Ichigo apologetically, "I'm sorry, Master Ichigo. You have also seen that my body may not be able to support it for much longer now. That's why I will I am so grateful to fate for allowing me to wait for you before I leave this world.”

Kurosaki Ichigo originally thought that he had cut off all ties with this world, but after seeing Uchiha Kage's weak appearance, he couldn't help but feel a little distressed in his heart, and his eyes softened, "Why do you have to do this? , with your strength, if you cultivate yourself well, what disease can defeat you?"

"It's a pity that things in the world don't always go as expected," Uchiha Kagami shook his head, "For the sake of the village and the clan, I have reasons to persist."

"Me too." Kurosaki Ichigo's voice also became colder. He knew that Uchiha Mirror would not let him leave, so he was ready to fight.

At this time, Koharu's voice came from the entrance in the distance, "You two are so long-winded. Is this the tradition of your Uchiha clan? You should be long-winded for a while before fighting."

Ichigo Kurosaki turned around and saw Koharu walking out from behind the tall arch, followed by several ANBU ninjas wearing black combat uniforms and animal masks.

"That guy is." Kurosaki Ichigo suddenly frowned and found that among the ANBU ninjas behind Koharu who turned to bed, there was one who was also wearing a black combat uniform, but without an animal mask, and had a mustache on his chin. middle-aged people.

He instinctively felt that the middle-aged man's identity seemed unusual, but after taking a look at the little mink standing on the middle-aged man's shoulder, he thought for a few seconds and could not figure out what the middle-aged man's identity would be.

"I have a question in my mind." Kurosaki Ichigo really wanted to delay time this time, so he led Nariko and Sanada Hirohi to the corner of the platform without leaving any trace and asked.

"Why do we know this place, and have arranged a large number of ninjas in advance to wait for you to take the bait?" At this time, Koharu had arrived on the central platform, looking at Kurosaki Ichigo with a hint of pride in his eyes.

Kurosaki Ichigo sighed, "That's right."

"Do you still remember Hedi who entrusted you with the task of robbing the Grayl Stone?" Seeing Kurosaki Ichigo nodding affirmatively, Koharu went to bed and continued, "That's right, you are not the only one who knows about it and wants to take advantage of it. The power of the Greel Stone vein, even that Hedi had cracked the location of the Greel Stone vein before you, but you just suffered from the lack of the Greel Stone to open the seal."

Combined with Uchiha Kagami's words before, a crazy idea flashed through Kurosaki Ichigo's mind, and he couldn't help but look at Koharu who was sleeping in the dormitory in surprise, "So you people found this place in advance, and then lurked for many years, just to bet that I am sure The location of the Grayl Stone vein can be found."

"That's right" Uchiha Mirror nodded, and then looked directly at Kurosaki Ichigo.

It was Uchiha Kagami who came up with this idea because the interrogation of Nariko's retainers was fruitless.Coupled with the encouragement of Shimura Danzo, who intended to weaken the strength of the Hokage line, Uchiha Kagami and Kagami Koharu were naturally stationed here by the senior officials.

It was precisely because of the lack of Uchiha Mirror's help that the gentle Sarutobi Hiruzen became temporarily soft-hearted because he was concerned about the friendship of Danzo from the gay village, and made a huge mistake in the political struggle.

"You are really a bunch of crazy people." Kurosaki Ichigo smacked his lips, feeling that these guys in Konoha were so unreasonable that they actually put their hope on themselves as their opponents.

Uchiha mirror looked directly at Kurosaki Ichigo and said word by word, "Because I believe in your ability, Master Ichigo."

Kurosaki Ichigo was speechless, but with slight movement of his feet, he and Nariko arrived at the corner of the masonry pattern on the platform.

"Be careful, they want to open the palace's mechanism." Before Ichigo Kurosaki could make any move, the middle-aged man who followed Koharu, who had transferred to his dormitory, to the central platform of the palace seemed to have seen through his intention, so he immediately shouted out. Kurosaki Ichigo's plan.

Seeing that his wishful thinking had failed, Kurosaki Ichigo did not intend to continue to cover up. He stepped on the bricks and stones under his feet with his toes. Then his ankles moved slightly, and his toes rotated around with the circular masonry pattern under his feet.

Amidst the rattling sound of the giant rock machinery turning, the ground beneath Kurosaki Ichigo dropped rapidly, quickly moving away from the previously suspended platform.

However, the ANBU ninjas around were not vegetarians. Within a few seconds of the ground falling, they all jumped onto the ground where Kurosaki Ichigo was standing.

Not to mention Uchiha Kagami, who looked seriously ill and weak, even the middle-aged man who had previously defeated Kurosaki Ichigo's intention but had no strength, also reached the falling ground with the help of the ANBU ninja beside him.

The weightlessness of the rapid descent had no effect on the ninjas who had experienced inhuman training. A group of people fought fiercely during the descent.

There was a loud bang, and the huge stone finally fell to the ground, right at the entrance of a spacious and tall palace.

Ichigo Kurosaki grabbed Nariko by the back collar and threw her out. Then Hirohiro Sanada twisted his body in the air and followed him. Ichigo Kurosaki waved the sword in his hand that was burning with blazing flames. Zhenheng stood in front of a group of ninjas.

"Quickly" Naliko turned over in mid-air and then landed firmly on her feet. Holding the Grell Stone that Kurosaki Ichigo handed her before throwing her out, she shouted at Sanada Hirohiro. He said in a loud voice, "Let's open the seal of the Grayl Stone vein."

Sanada Hirohiro nodded and followed Nariko to a small altar at the end of the palace.

But at this time, Kurosaki Ichigo could not withstand the attacks of many elite ninjas. The flames on the sword suddenly stagnated, and then someone kicked him in the chest. He flew backwards and landed heavily. On the ground.

A wisp of blood spilled from the corner of Kurosaki Ichigo's mouth. He covered his chest, feeling bored and nauseous, and feeling like he couldn't breathe.He knew that if his physique had not been strengthened a lot in the past few years in the ninja world, he would have passed out under this foot.

After losing the resistance of Ichigo Kurosaki, ANBU ninjas wearing black combat uniforms poured into the spacious palace.

The middle-aged man also walked in with his little white mink in his arms. At a glance, he saw Nariko and Sanada Hirohiro holding the Greel Stone tinkering with something in front of the altar, so he couldn't help but feel dizzy. Shouting loudly, "No, they are opening the seal of the Grayl Stone vein, stop them quickly"

When he went to bed, Koharu was not as hurried as the middle-aged man with a goatee. After taking a look at Kurosaki Ichigo who had barely recovered and stood up, he ordered his subordinates who were looking at him, "You go stop those two women first. I Come and deal with him."

The ANBU ninjas responded and rushed forward, bypassing Kurosaki Ichigo's figure and running towards Nariko and the two girls.

Ichigo Kurosaki wanted to block him with a sword, but Koharu stepped forward and held his Zhenheng with two kunai in his hand.

"Your opponent is me, Ichigo."
