Naruto Death Hero

From a long distance away, a village in the city noticed the person coming, so they opened their eyes. Their eyes were no longer as sharp as before, but were replaced by indescribable gentleness.

Kurosaki Ichigo was shocked because he felt the bone-chilling chill hidden under the gentle gaze of Ichimura in the castle.

"Kurosaki..." Ichimura in the castle said softly, but the voice was not drowned by the howling cold wind, but was clearly transmitted to the ears of Kurosaki and Ichigo.

A trace of sigh flashed in the eyes of Ichimura in the city. Although Ichigo Kurosaki used a transformation technique to disguise himself when he came to the Land of Iron, the image he disguised was exactly what he would look like when he grew up, so Hirohiro Sanada and Kuroda Only Bingwei and others can recognize his identity at a glance.

And after so many years, it seems to the village in the castle that Kurosaki Ichigo has not shown any signs of aging, and he is still as young and energetic as before. How can this not make this swordsman who feels the power of time feel sad? Feeling emotional.

The four of them walked slowly and soon arrived close.

Kurosaki Ichigo took a few steps forward: "Long time no see, Jonouchi." He pointed at Nariko behind him and said, "This is my companion, Nariko."

"Well," Ichimura Nouchi nodded, "but I guess that's not a reason to visit me, right?"

Before Ichigo Kurosaki could answer, Hirohiro Sanada who was next to him said first, "Master, Kurosaki-kun said he came to you to ask for something!"

Jonouchi Ichimura glanced at Sanada Hirohiro. He naturally knew that this disciple had resentment towards him. In fact, he also liked Sanada Hirohiro as his disciple very much.

But becoming the successor of Hanren Kanshin means having to sit here for the rest of his life. He can't bear to let a girl waste his youth and life here, so he has always preferred Kuroda Bei.

After calming down for a moment, Ichimura Jonouchi said calmly: "Oh? I wonder what Kurosaki you want from me?"

Kurosaki Ichigo did not speak, but took out something from his arms and shook it towards the castle village.

Hirohiro Sanada and Hei Kuroda looked over curiously and found that Ichigo Kurosaki was holding a beautiful gem in his hand.

The gem was shaped like a goose egg, with an outer layer wrapped in jadeite, and inside was a blue substance that was slowly churning like magma. It was obviously the 'Grel Stone' passed down by Nariko's family.

At this time, the azure blue material inside the Grayer Stone is emitting a faint light that cannot be covered up even if it is wrapped in jade outside. It looks so beautiful that once you take a look at it, you will never be able to look away.

This kind of lethality is especially huge for Sanada Hirohiro. At this time, she has leaned over and is looking intently at the Grell Stone in Kurosaki Ichigo's hand. At the same time, she keeps sighing: "Wow! This piece The stone is so beautiful!”

However, after seeing the gem in the castle, Ichimura's expression changed, and then he tried to cover up his emotions and said, "Kurosaki, are you here just for this stone?"

Kurosaki Ichigo nodded, and under the reluctant gaze of Sanada Hirohiro, he took back the Gray Stone in his arms: "Yes, this stone is called the Gray Stone. Through a specific ritual, you can sense the other stone." The location of the Grayl Stone, and according to the instructions of this induction, the other one should be here!

"Coupled with your reaction after seeing this Gray Stone just now, I can confirm that the holder of the other Gray Stone is you, right?"

A village in the city sighed: "Yes. But your wording is not quite accurate. I am not the holder of the 'Grel Stone', but the guardian."

As he spoke, he also took out a stone from his arms. The shape of the stone was no different from Kurosaki Ichigo's Gray Stone, except that there were a few imperceptible cracks on the jadeite on the outside, and the inside was blue. The light emitted by the colored substance is also weaker than that of Kurosaki Ichigo.

Sanada Hirohiro looked at Jonouchi Ichimura in surprise. She didn't know that her master had such a beautiful gem. She looked at Kuroda Biewei again and found that he also had doubts on his face. He seemed to be more attracted by Jonouchi Ichimura. Even he, whom the village loves, doesn't know about this.

"Yes, this is the Gray Stone! Where did you get it?" Kurosaki Ichigo looked at the stone with a trace of eagerness on his face.

A village in the city regained his composure as a swordsman, and took back the Grayl Stone in his arms: "Is this important? You look for Ge...forget it, I will do as I say, you look for What is the purpose of a natural stone?”

"Natural stone?" Kurosaki Ichigo pondered for a moment and then said, "This stone was mined from underground veins tens of thousands of years ago by a highly developed country, and was named 'Grael's Stone'. Later this The country was destroyed in the civil war, but there is still a Greer vein left, and I now want to rely on them to find this vein."

A village in the city never thought that this stone was made tens of thousands of years ago, so they couldn't help but be stunned for a moment before saying: "It's a pity that the natural stone is something that our Hanren Kenshin style has passed down from generation to generation. , its origin has nothing to do with the mineral vein you mentioned."

Kurosaki Ichigo was stunned. Huge disappointment instantly occupied his heart. He opened his mouth, but couldn't say a word.

Na Li, who was standing next to her, saw this and stepped forward: "It would be good to get some clues. I wonder if you can tell us its origin?"

When Naliko said this, Kurosaki Ichigo also ignited a fire in his heart, and like Sanada Hirohiro and Kuroda Hei, he cast his expectant eyes on the castle village.

A village in the city shook their heads: "No!"

Kurosaki Ichigo immediately asked: "Why!"

"Because these things are secrets passed down from mouth to mouth by our Hanren Guanxin. Only the descendants of each generation can know." The voice of a village in the city was firm.

Kurosaki Ichigo stared at the village in the city with blazing eyes: "What if I must know!"

"Forgive me for being unable to do anything." A village in the city met Kurosaki Ichigo's gaze, and there was no trace of unbearability in his heart.

"Can't we be accommodating! We won't tell anyone!" Nariko quickly pulled Kurosaki Ichigo to tell him not to stalemate the relationship, and then asked.

A villager in the city thought for a while and said, "There is also a way."

"any solution?"

"Defeat me." The voice of a village in the city was very soft, but it also carried an indescribable heaviness.

Naliko smiled bitterly: "Does it have to be like this?"

Although she had teased Kurosaki Ichigo about this when she went up the mountain, she never expected that her words would come true. In the end, a fight would be required to get things going.

Jonouchi Ichimura nodded seriously: "My teacher Ariga Tomoyuki told me before he died that our Hanren Kenshin-ryu is not only guarding the road to the Arctic Icefield, but also guarding the secret of the natural stone. , if someone can really defeat us, then there is no harm in telling him the reason for all this."

Nari was speechless and didn't know what to say. Kurosaki Ichigo turned to smile at her.

She understood in her heart and said to Kurosaki Ichigo: "Be careful! Don't get hurt!" After saying that, Naliko stepped back. She didn't say anything like not being afraid of failure, because in her heart Kurosaki Ichigo He won't lose, this is her trust in him.

Seeing Nari backing away, Ichimura in the city nodded slightly to Sanada Hirohiro and Kuroda Hei: "You should also go aside first. You have been competing with each other all this time. Now let's see what a real battle is like. of."

"Yes!" Sanada Hirohiro and Kuroda Heiye responded at the same time, standing together with Nariko.

Seeing that everyone in the way had already stood far away, Jonouchi Ichimura smiled at Kurosaki Ichigo and said: "Kurosaki, I remember that you fainted before the last battle was over. Let's finish it this time."

"It's what I asked for." Kurosaki Ichigo flicked his hair, and then pulled out Zhenheng from behind.

This weapon has been with him for more than ten years. Now holding it in his hand, the powerful force that has been suppressed because it has not been unsheathed for a long time even turned into a gust of wind and swirled around Kurosaki Ichigo.

The three people on the side, Sanada Hirohiro, couldn't help but take two steps back under the pressure of Kurosaki Ichigo's strong will. Sanada Hirohiro's eyes looked at Kurosaki Ichigo, which was full of shock and curiosity.

In her opinion, Kurosaki Ichigo fainted nine years ago without even moving a hand in the castle. His strength should not be very good, even if Kurosaki Ichigo's appearance miraculously remained unchanged in the past nine years. He was definitely no match for Ichimura within the castle. Who would have thought that Kurosaki Ichigo's strength would be so terrifying, relying on his aura to force him and others back.

"You are stronger than before." Ichimura in the city nodded and commented in a condescending tone.

In fact, Kurosaki Ichigo was also very powerful at the beginning, but in order to maintain the long-term transformation technique, his strength has been suppressed to the level of a special jounin.

"I think it's only been nine years. You shouldn't have become that old."

Kurosaki Ichigo said it very bluntly. The battle back then really made him a little bit worried.

Ichimura in the city shook his head: "But your mind has been influenced by too many things, and it's worse than before."

"Without further ado!"

Kurosaki Ichigo shouted, then stepped forward, raised his hand and drew a beautiful arc in the air with his sword, and slashed it down on the head of the village in the castle.

There was a local sound, and the sword lying across the knee of the village in the city came first and knocked Kurosaki Ichigo's Zhenheng away.

The three ancient seal characters "All Sutra" were engraved on the blade with a dazzling cold light, exactly like those in Kurosaki Ichigo's nightmare.

After Kurosaki Ichigo's weapon was knocked away, Jonouchi Ichimura stood up but did not take the opportunity to attack, and Kurosaki Ichigo did not continue the attack.

The two of them faced off like this, and for a while there was only the roar of the strong wind on the top of the mountain. See more! Prestige official account: hhxs665
