Finally getting rid of the pursuit of these Hollows, Yamabuki chased after Chojiro at the fastest speed.
Before they ran far, they saw Chōjirō and others surrounded by four Gillian. With the strength of Chōjirō and Yuan-Feng, it was already very difficult for them to deal with four Gillian at the same time.
This was all thanks to Yamabuki, who transformed himself into a mobile fortress and blocked the hollow tide for such a long time.
If they had allowed those hollows to chase them, these two little brothers would have been gnawed into bones long ago!
"Bakudou 62. Hyapporankan (Hundred Steps Fence)"
A beam of light appeared in Yamabuki 's hand, and he threw it towards the four hollows. In an instant, the beam of light changed into dozens of beams, which nailed the four Gillian firmly to the ground.
"Brother Yamabuki!Thank god you're okay!" Chōjirō smiled happily.
"Heh What can those guy do to me?" Yamabuki assumed a smug expression and swiftly climbed back onto Lizardmaru's head.
Thankfuly I had the foresight to have a mount. If it weren't for Lizardmaru, how could you have run so far with just two legs?
However, the crisis remains unresolved. The spiritual pressure of the Shinigami is different from that of the Hollows. In this vast desert, the three Shinigami are like bright lights in the darkness. These Hollows will find them sooner or later!
"Hurry up and contact Soul Society and ask them to open a gate at a specific place so we can go back quickly. After killing so many Hollows, we have already finished our mission," Yamabuki said, but before they could complete his sentence he looked around vigilantly.
Their location became known, and an increasing number of Hollows surrounded them.
"I found you! Hahaha!" a hollow laughed as he rushed towards Yamabuki.
" No, I found you. " Yamabuki launched a flash flower, which instantly pierced through the mask of Hollow and twisted his brain out!
"If we keep running like this, we'll be caught sooner or later! We have to find a safe place! And we have to get rid of the spiritual pressure on our body." Yamabuki missed Kurotsuchi Mayuri a little at this time. If he were that perverted, he would definitely be able to make a device to erase all traces of spiritual pressure.
"Then let's use the simplest method!" Yamabuki killed all the approaching Hollows like cutting melons and vegetables, then peeled off the Hollow's mask from his face and put it on his own face.
"Do you think these people with their virtual IQ can see through our disguise?" asked Yamabuki.
Chōjirō 's and Yuan-Feng's eyebrows twitched. They really want to scream out that although hollows are a bit dumb, they are not stupid or blind! How could they not see through that terrible disguise?
But...
"Brother Yamabuki, after you put on the mask of the Hollow, the spiritual pressure on your body has indeed changed! Maybe it will be of some use!" Chōjirō said in surprise. Then he also found a mask that suited him from the corpse of the Hollow and put it on. It was quite interesting.
By the time these three people were disguised, the Achucas that had been searching for them had already found their tracks.
"Boy, you run pretty fast! Our fight isn't over yet! Keep going!" said Four-Armed Adjuchas.
Yamabuki rubbed his throat and then pretended to say in a very hoarse voice, "You recognized the wrong person; I am also weak; look at the mask on my face!"
Four-armed Adjuchas's brows twitched wildly under the mask. "Do you think I'm an idiot? How could I not recognize you with a mask on? The spiritual pressure on you is also a significant….. " but halfway through his speech the Four-armed Adjuchas paused as he realised something serious.
Hmm? Why has this kid's spiritual pressure changed?
Before, it was pure Shinigami spiritual pressure.
The spiritual pressure now has become very...chaotic.
It's like a mixed fruit juice.
"I really am a Hollow. If you don't believe me, I will show you a Hollow flash. Just stand there and don't move. I will show you a Hollow flash right now! Hadō #63. Raikōhō " Yamabuki said as he quickly cast a kido.
" Damn you Go to hell. This isn't a hollow flash at all! "The four-armed Adjuchas cursed loudly, and a golden and blue beam of light directly hit the group of Hollows, blowing away a large number of them.
"What are you two standing there looking at? Hurry up and run! Our disguise has been exposed!" Yamabuki shouted at Chojiro and Yuan-Feng.
Chōjirō complained in his heart, "Your disguise was always unsuccessful! How low of an IQ would someone have to have to be fooled by such a disguise? Show your wisdom as a chief of staff!"
Since the mask on his face was useless anyway, Chōjirō took it off and threw it away, and so did Yuan-Feng.
Yamabuki sighed. He wanted to play a game of infiltrating the enemy, but it seemed that he had failed. He reached out to take off the mask but failed!
Um?
Did I put on the mask too hard?
He pulled hard again, but it didn't come off!
A chill ran up Yamabuki's heart.
What's going on?
He struggled to remove the mask, but it seemed to blend into his face. No matter how hard he tried, the mask wouldn't budge at all, unless he tore the entire face off!
What the hell! What the hell!
No, calm down, you have to make sure everything is alright. Don't let anyone found out you are panicking.
"Brother Yamabuki, why are you still wearing that mask?" asked Chōjirō innocently as he saw Yamabuki still wearing his mask.
Yamabuki said nervously, "I think it looks pretty cool, so I'll wear it on my face for a while. It's okay, don't worry about me, I'll take care of the pursuers behind me!"
Saying so, Yamabuki turned back, and then he tried again to take out the mask, but no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't get the white mask off. If he returned to Soul Society with this thing, he would be hacked to death.
It was already troublesome enough that I accidentally awakened the ability to control spirit particles. I had to be careful and alert at all times for fear of being discovered by others.
Now the mask is still stuck on my face, and I can't take it off. I really have no way to defend myself.
You must know that Hollows have been the enemies of Shinigami since ancient times. When Aizen was doing the Hollowification experiment, he used eight captains and vice-captains as test subjects and turned them into semi-hollowed Shinigami. That was almost equivalent to one-third of the backbone forces of Soul Society, but they were abandoned by Soul Society without hesitation!
Judging from Makoto Hirako's attitude towards Yamamoto when fighting with Aizen, Yamamoto was acquiescing to the decision of the Central 46.
After the Aizen arc, the Masked Corps returned to the Gotei 13, but even during the Thousand-Year Blood War arc, they never used Hollowification, even when they were defeated and killed. It is very likely that they reached some agreement with the higher-ups that they would never use the Hollowification ability again for the rest of their lives.
Otherwise, these masked captains would not have been so passive in the thousand-year bloody war.
"Damn it, if it doesn't work, just cut off my face skin. Anyway, I have a way to heal it." Yamabuki was furious and used the tip of the knife to pick the gap between the mask and the flesh, trying to peel off the entire face skin!
But at this moment, he discovered that the real problem was not that he could not take off the mask, but that the hollow mask was merging with his body; it was integrating into his body bit by bit!
In less than a minute, Hollow's mask completely disappeared and merged into his body. Yamabuki touched his face hard to make sure that it was flesh and not a mask, but this made him even more anxious. What was wrong with his body?
"Huh? Brother Yamabuki, did you throw away the mask? You just said it looked handsome!" Chōjirō came over and said with a smile.
