And we continue with this next chapter, the truth is that I am running out of things with which to fill this part because I am quickly writing the chapters.
If I had to fill this in with anything, it would be to tell you that I am excited about the release of the Total War Troy, I would go so far as to say that perhaps I will give a little wink to the Trojans in this or some other chapter.
After that filling let's go through the story.
Ji
Funeral...
Attraction tactics.
With Yoruichi.
Seireitei.
Since she saw the black smoke from the top of the mountain, the violet-haired woman knew that something happened, she with her characteristic speed stopped on a roof when she saw several shinigami collecting the bodies of other shinigami.
While this was not comparable to the blood the hollows spilled on their victims, which she came to see in her time as captain of the second squad, there was an important difference here, they had no evidence of the brutality with which the hollows used to devour their victims.
In addition to several buildings being ruined by fire, black stains covered their surroundings with walls eaten away by the heat, some smoke still escaping into the sky.
She averted her gaze, concentrating to locate Byakuya's reiatsu, and immediately after finding it, she went there.
Byakuya, who was watching his men transport the bodies of his companions, felt Yoruichi's presence, turned around, and when he saw her, she asked him - Byakuya, what happened here? -
With his typical calm voice, the spirit responds - We were attacked by an enemy that we have never seen before - and this one returned to look at the battlefield.
Yoruichi turned to see the same place that Byakuya saw, but she looked to her left when she felt the presence of her former student, Soi fon.
- Lady Yoruichi! What a joy to have her - Soi fon greets her with eagerness and respect.
With a smile, the golden-eyed spirit responds - How many times have I told you that there is no need for so many compliments ?, Soi fon - although afterward her face becomes serious again and asks - How is this enemy? -
With a somber expression, she replies - Quite strange, they are not any kind of hollow, to tell the truth ... They seem to be spirits that were previously dead, but instead of reincarnating in the human world, they returned to this world -
- And whoever commanded them was not from this place - Byakuya began to speak - It was an unknown-looking woman who wore armor ... - The leader of the Kuchiki clan looked directly at Yoruichi's eyes.
- Furthermore, she managed to kill Kenpachi Zaraki, as well as Ikkaku and Yumichika -
Yoruichi's eyes looked like dishes from how open they were - WHAT? Did she kill them? -
Both Byakuya and Soi fon agreed - And the worst thing is - This time it was Soi fon who spoke - That at no time did we detect that she had enough reiatsu to beat them, but she has a technique to cancel reiatsu -
- How do you know? - The Moka-skinned woman asked.
Soi fon begins to tell them the events of ...
1 hour before.
The defenders were already pushing back the assailants, with all the streets guarded by different groups the Maledicti couldn't envelop the troops, the cavalry as well as the archers were under constant harassment from the fifth squad's kido.
Suddenly a female voice was heard saying something like - Veteraner. TRÄCK UTTÄDET, soldiers retreat - and the assailants began to retreat in a more or less organized way.
The Shinigami chased them, killing some during the retreat, however, when the Maledicti approached the outskirts of the city several were heard.
Bang, Bang, Bang, Bang, Bang.
Several shinigami fell to the ground bleeding and suddenly some subjects with an armor of medieval knights were formed occupying all the way and this happened in all the streets, thus only allowing the passage to their companions.
The formation of the Maledicti veterans had halberds and these formed a wall through which it would be suicide to charge head-on, although few made up these formations.
So the shinigamis picked up momentum and jumped up, only one of the two lines placed their halberds pointed at the sky, and seeing that only one line was the one with their halberds in front gave confidence to the spirits to charge.
A serious mistake, because suddenly a volley of bullets riddled the shinigami who tried to jump the halberd formation and at this the second line lowered their halberds again, causing several shinigamis to string themselves into those weapons.
The good news is that the captains were already in combat, the bad news is that suddenly several waves of fire began to devastate all the nearby buildings and what looked like white reiatsu spread through the place as if it were some kind of gas, leaving without reiatsu to all the shinigami in the entire area that encompassed the seireitei and its surroundings.
After that, all the attacking forces withdrew, the closest shinigami who did not die by the veterans' weapons reported that behind them they could see the figure of a woman in armor.
Present
After hearing the story, the violet-haired woman is silent, Byakuya seeing that she was thinking decided to go with her men, there were still bodies to bury.
Seeing him go, Soi fon was about to do the same but was stopped by her "old" teacher (Why for Soi fon she will always be her teacher) and Yoruichi with her eyes indicated that she should follow her.
Being far enough away from the others, Yoruichi ask - Soi fon, did you warn Angelica that the Maledicti have arrived? -
Angelica's landing fleet.
About a little more than a dozen ships made up the fleet, about 9 were the transport ones, the rest were destroyers and hired to protect the fleet.
Like much of its technology these were similar to those of the last century, and also these had a camouflage painted, this camouflage consisted of several lines similar to waves in different directions, this makes it very difficult to say at a great distance from which direction the ship was heading.
The main ship was a battleship class Bayern, battleships used by the German Imperial Navy in the First World War, only, of course, this had the most modern improvements that Angelica was allowed to achieve and this was the time of arrival at the coasts were being discussed. of the society of souls.
Galen, who was taking pills to avoid vomiting from the movement of the ship, tried to listen to what Héctor was saying.
Héctor was a man who had a strong voice, his hair and beard the color of night, his hair and beard were somewhat short but these were curly, his skin was white and his eyes were chocolate brown, as well as measuring around 1.85 M/ 6.06 ft.
- We estimate that we will reach the coast in 2 days, although this may have varied a bit - Héctor commented while pointing to a big map attached to the metal wall, this map showed Angelica, the Maledicti areas, the seas, the unknown zone of the hollow world and of course the Soul Society.
The dark-skinned man replied - I'm glad ... To know that this was fast ... I don't think it will take more days like this ... I will notify Soi fon so that there is no misunderstanding with our arrival -
With concern in his voice the captain asked - Emperor, don't you need more medicine? -
Galen replied - No, they always take a while to take effect -
With Rhayla, that day but at dawn.
A group of 20 veterans surrounded Rhayla, she was exhausted using that seal to escape with her army. Even so, she did not neglect her task as a Maledicti leader.
Proof of this is that she gave orders to her veterans, who applied them to the rest, these were simple, marching on the roads, looking for a city, rivers and high places to camp. To find a city this was looted.
Right now they were preparing their camp on a hillside near a town they just looted, they would march as far as they could during the day, if they wanted a chance to win it would be to meet their true army. And something that she knows very well is that the society of souls will go in her search, both for the siege, murder of the captain, and the various looting that she is doing.
You just have to get west fast.
SOUL SOCIETY.
Funeral of Kenpachi Zaraki, Ikkaku, Yumichika, and two-thirds of the 11th squad.
If there is a squad in danger right now, it is the eleventh.
Although they did not have very good relationships with others, nobody could say that this was not a tragedy.
Right now within the wall of the society of souls, hundreds of shinigamis march, who dressed in white carry coffins on their shoulders with the bodies of several former comrades-in-arms.
The streets through which they pass are adorned with a red and gold mat, on the sides lit candles that radiate a yellow light, behind these candles are the rest of the squads, right now they were not wearing their normal attire, if not a more ceremonial one.
It was equally black, but it had the soul society symbol on its back, chest, and shoulders, the same symbol that was tattooed on the coffins.
In front of everything, there was Kenpachi's coffin, this was escorted by Yachiru, no one had ever seen so much sadness on that face before so smiling, the coffin was the most prominent of all, being covered by the flag of the society of souls that was embroidered with gold and silver threads fell to its sides.
From a certain point, they divided in their march, some towards the mountain to bury the bodies and the others in altars where they would be cremated, to a certain extent by a large number of corpses.
In the place where many were cremated, white smoke came out into the night sky and those who were buried were placed candles in their graves and also the candles that were made to fly through the skies, beginning with Yachiru, which like the time of receiving the news makes a lament that destroyed the heart of everyone who could hear it. Even Captain Kurotsuchi felt something.
After this day they would not rest until they finished with that damn woman.
