Chapter 841: Chapter 655: Urahara Kisuke’s Wisdom, the Key Figure Orochimaru!
Mortal World.
The space barrier slowly opened.
One by one, figures in white uniforms floated out of the space rift.
Each of their faces was adorned with bizarre bone masks, and a powerful spiritual pressure emanated from their bodies. They were the Arrancar Legion under Orochimaru’s command.
Or rather...
Now they were the Arrancar Legion under the Hollow Night Palace.
Currently, Neliel and Ulquiorra were responsible for commanding this Arrancar Legion. Since Ulquiorra had to stay in the Soul Society, this time, the mission in the Mortal World was entrusted to Neliel and Grimmjow to lead.
Only Neliel knew the truth.
This grand mission, leading over a hundred Arrancar Hollows to the Mortal World to capture Urahara Kisuke, was just a show.
The real operation...
Lay with Ulquiorra and the others in the Hollow Night Palace.
Of course, they didn’t come for nothing. Deploying over a hundred Arrancar Hollows couldn’t just be a free vacation for these unrefined guys, right?
Grimmjow glanced at the peaceful atmosphere of the Mortal World and sneered, "Neru, let’s begin the action directly, capture that Shinigami called Urahara Kisuke, and take down a few Shinigami on the way..."
"...No."
Neliel paused for a second, slowly shook her head, and loudly instructed, "The goal of this mission is solely to capture Urahara Kisuke; don’t cause unnecessary trouble in the Mortal World.
If you encounter stationed Shinigami, there’s no need to kill them. Use your most terrifying methods to expel them, let them feel the fear from the Hollow Night Palace..."
Or rather, that was their true purpose.
Only Urahara Kisuke unearthing evidence of Aizen Sousuke manipulating the Hollow World might not garner the Quiet Spirit Court’s attention. They needed to convey the threat of the Hollow World expelling all Shinigami and attempting to dominate the Mortal World to the Soul Society.
"Got it, got it."
Grimmjow waved his hand indifferently.
Over the years, Grimmjow had gained Orochimaru’s favor, and as an Arrancar, Neliel, the big sister, had taken care of him.
Thus, the relationship between Grimmjow and Neliel was good, without so many superficial formalities of superior and subordinate.
This was also the pride of the Arrancar Hollows.
No, it should be said, the pride of King Hollow.
In fact, if Grimmjow were to die protecting Neliel, he probably wouldn’t even furrow his brow, but to make Grimmjow bow to Neliel, no amount of money could make that happen!
"Alright, form pairs and begin your operations."
Neliel turned around and instructed the Arrancar Hollows, watching as they quickly formed pairs and turned into blur-like figures disappearing from her sight.
Just as Grimmjow was about to blur into the distance, Neliel suddenly called out to him, "Grimmjow, you act with me."
"Huh?"
Grimmjow looked slightly bewildered, rubbing his forehead involuntarily, "With our strength, there’s no need for that..." freewebnøvel.coɱ
"It’s very necessary."
Neliel frowned slightly, her sea-green hair swaying gently in the wind. She knew this junior well and didn’t mention her concern about Grimmjow’s impulsiveness.
Neliel raked her hand through her hair and continued softly, "Don’t forget our purpose. We’re here to invade the Mortal World, to replace the Shinigami’s role... not to engage in meaningless slaughter."
This order wasn’t from Aizen Sousuke, but from Orochimaru, serving merely as a supplement to some plan.
If it weren’t for the unsuitable circumstances...
The Hollow World would have liked to send a representative to declare war on the Soul Society.
However, expelling the stationed Shinigami was enough to prove the threat the Arrancar Legion posed to the Soul Society. freēwebnovel.com
When Urahara Kisuke discovers that Aizen Sousuke used the Arrancar Legion to dominate the Hollow World and passes this information to the Quiet Spirit Court... the timing would allow the Quiet Spirit Court to also receive the threat of Arrancar Hollows en masse invading the Mortal World.
Could the Quiet Spirit Court then afford to disregard it?
This tactic really put Aizen Sousuke in a tough spot, forcing Aizen Sousuke to confront the world.
Of course, Orochimaru issued this order perhaps to pay homage to a past where someone was forced to oppose the world under certain manipulation...
Besides that,
There was another purpose.
That was to perform a show for Urahara Kisuke, letting him know about the existence of Arrancar Hollows, and the illusion that the Hollow World might be defenseless now.
Only Neliel was privy to these matters.
Grimmjow was still oblivious to everything.
Listening to Neliel, Grimmjow couldn’t help but dig his ear, his face full of displeasure.
"Yeah, yeah... I’ll listen to you."
"Take it a bit more seriously,"
Neliel couldn’t help scolding softly.
The two Arrancar Hollows bickered lightly as they transformed into two blur-like shadows, swiftly disappearing from the spot, the spatial rift behind them slowly closing.
After Neliel and the Arrancar Legion left this area.
A few figures slowly emerged from the ground; it was Urahara Kisuke and White Zetsu, along with the former Kido Troops Captain of the Kido Corps, Tsukabishi Tessai, who was also one of the only forces Urahara Kisuke could mobilize.
