Help! I am bound to Aizen!

Chapter 135

Chapter 135

"Takatori is still chasing me, damn it!"

Kaelith hid behind a massive stone pillar, sneaking a glance into the distance.

AN Adjuchas squatted atop a towering stone pillar, scanning the surroundings.

It was one of the four Adjuchas pursuing him.

Yoruichi tugged at her collar. "I never expected the Tsunayashiro family to be this insane."

"Baraggan... that's supposed to be the King of Hueco Mundo, the most powerful Hollow, right?"

"Those Tsunayashiro guys are actually making deals with a Hollow"

"No matter how depraved they are, going this far is just too much!"

Kaelith chuckled.

He was never surprised by the bizarre antics of the Soul Society's nobles.

He closed his eyes and took a deep breath.

Compared to humans crossing a desert, Shinigami have a significant advantage when traversing Hueco Mundo.

They don't need to eat or drink.

The air in Hueco Mundo has a high concentration of Reishi.

Shinigami can sustain themselves just by breathing.

Yoruichi was also adjusting her breathing, trying her best to recover her Reiatsu.

At that moment, she saw Kaelith draw his sword and stab it into the ground.

Seeing this action, Yoruichi asked curiously, "Kaelith, what are you doing?"

Kaelith rolled his neck:

"They're so close to catching up. If we keep running, the chances of being discovered are high."

"When four Adjuchas and a captain catch up together, we'll be at a severe disadvantage."

"Instead of that, we might as well strike first and take one down while they're not paying attention."

Originally, he wanted to find Aizen and team up with him for a counterattack.

But after searching for a few hours, he helplessly realized that Hueco Mundo was too vast.

Even though he knew Aizen was also in Hueco Mundo, he couldn't detect any traces of his Reiatsu.

Rather than continuing the search, it was better to think of a way to save themselves.

Looking at the giant humanoid Hollow not far away, focused on searching, Kaelith grinned.

"An Adjuchas dares to act alone; they're really underestimating me."

Hearing this, Yoruichi's eyes lit up.

Trained in combat from a young age, she instantly agreed with Kaelith's assessment.

She nodded, "Alright, I'll coordinate with you. I'll act as bait to draw its attention, and you seize the opportunity to strike!"

But Kaelith shook his head.

"No need. You just stay here and watch."

"My fighting style... well, it's a bit special."

"I'll perform better alone."

As he spoke, Kaelith's figure flashed and disappeared from where he stood.

Watching him leave, Yoruichi pouted slightly, swinging her fist in mild frustration.

Atop the tall stone pillar, the giant Hollow squinted, surveying the surroundings.

It could smell the scent of Shinigami in the air.

Those two should be nearby.

No rush; by keeping watch here, it would surely find traces of them.

That Shinigami named Takatori had warned earlier that one of the two Shinigami was very strong, not weaker than itself.

It scoffed at that.

Among Shinigami, only those wearing white haori needed to be approached cautiously.

Those two Shinigami—it had seen them—weren't wearing white haori.

Just a small fry.

Speaking of small fry, not long ago in the desert, it had encountered a leopard-shaped Adjuchas with impressive strength.

Unfortunately, that one ran too fast; before it could set up an encirclement, the leopard had already escaped. (t/n my favorite Hollow If you know, you know)

If it could catch and devour that one, it might get a step closer to evolution.

Thinking of that scenario, the giant Hollow couldn't help but feel excited.

Currently, it was already among the elites of Adjuchas. If it could evolve again, it would step into the strongest class among Hollows—the Vasto Lorde!

Speaking of Vasto Lorde...

That woman with the shark tail and big sword was probably a Vasto Lorde.

Recently, there had been mysterious disappearances of Menos Grande.

A large number of Gillians had inexplicably vanished from the Forest.

Lord Baraggan had sent people to investigate but couldn't find a trace.

Although they hadn't found the cause of the disappearances, during the search, they discovered a humanoid Hollow.

That humanoid Hollow was small, only about 1.7 meters tall, but incredibly powerful.

Baraggan sent two Adjuchas to capture that humanoid Hollow.

As soon as they made a move, one was killed.

The other Adjuchas fled in terror back to Las Noches to report.

Baraggan was furious and sent out ten Adjuchas, ordering them to either bring back the target or not return at all.

The ten Adjuchas, true to form, none returned.

Baraggan was enraged, leading a large group of subordinates to personally settle accounts with the humanoid Hollow.

Among those subordinates was the giant Hollow.

Under Baraggan's immense power, the humanoid Hollow was finally defeated.

Baraggan didn't kill her but invited her to become his subordinate.

The humanoid Hollow did not agree and escaped with her three underlings.

Since then, Baraggan had been sending people to search for the traces of those four Hollows.

Thinking of that humanoid Hollow's power, the giant Hollow couldn't help but yearn.

If it could have that kind of power, could it become like Lord Baraggan, ruling over territories in Hueco Mundo?

Fantasizing about such a scene, the giant Hollow couldn't help but grin.

At that moment, a strong sense of danger suddenly surged in its heart.

Instinctively, it raised its Reiatsu, activating "Hierro" (Steel Skin).

The next second, an invisible slash struck hard at its neck!

As the blade cut down, the Hierro shattered, and blood spurted out.

Fortunately, the Hierro had slowed the attack, and the blade didn't cut too deep.

The giant Hollow showed an angry expression.

If it hadn't reacted quickly, it might have become a headless corpse!

Who dared to attack it?!

Turning around, it saw a young man holding a sword with both hands, raising it high and slashing down fiercely!

Seeing Kaelith clearly, the giant Hollow's anger turned to joy.

It was that fleeing Shinigami!

Finally found him!

Though it didn't know where this little guy got the courage to attack it, none of that mattered.

As long as it killed him and then the other Shinigami with him, it would have made a great contribution, and Lord Baraggan would surely reward it handsomely!

The giant Hollow grinned widely.

It raised its thick arm, over three meters long, reaching out to grab Kaelith's descending blade.

In the next second, under its somewhat stunned gaze, Kaelith suddenly changed his slash into a throw.

The Zanpakut? in his hand was directly flung out, piercing into the giant Hollow's huge palm with a "thud."

Giant Hollow: "?"

What kind of move is this?

In all its years, it had seen many Shinigami, and which one of them didn't treat their swords as more precious than life?

Those Shinigami it had killed all clutched their swords tightly even in death.

Who starts a fight by throwing their sword like a projectile?

Before it could recover, it saw Kaelith in mid-air, one hand with fingers together, reaching forward.

His other hand was clenched into a fist at his waist.

He unleashed his attack!!
