Chapter 127 Sorry, I'm a bit grumpy when I wake up.
With a roar, the once ordinary broken sword suddenly unleashed a scorching spiritual pressure in Asuka's hand.
Although in this mirror field, Asuka had no idea what state she was in, she even questioned whether breathing was necessary.
But he would never forget those days and nights he spent in Yeshan, the sword instinct etched into his very bones.
"Shuo!!"
His figure came rushing in like a whistling wind, instantly unleashing a spiral-shaped hurricane.
The white figure easily dodged to the side, her eyes filled with disdain: [Using these garbage memories as weapons? You're hopeless.]
The battle erupted completely in this desolate spiritual world.
The white figure moved like a ghost, leaving countless afterimages in the air. Every swing of the black blade in his hand caused a violent tremor in the space.
The bird naturally found itself in a fierce battle.
He had no knife, or rather, he didn't have a knife that could sustain him in the fight.
He had to constantly move through the Mirror Plain, quickly pulling out the next sword before each broken one shattered.
"This one... was left behind by Muichiro Tokito..."
"This... is the one that Steelzuka forged..."

The white wolf and the raccoon dog flanked the enemy, their cooperation with the flying bird was seamless.
It uses its massive body to shield birds from fatal wounds, or its sharp claws to leave scars on the back of white shadows.
The man and the wolf displayed an extraordinary understanding at this moment, as if they were two sides of the same will, able to understand each other's thoughts with just a thought.
Enough! This farce needs to end!
The white figure roared, and the black blade in his hand suddenly cracked, turning into countless tiny black fragments.
These fragments rapidly split and expanded, engulfing the birds and white wolves like a torrential rain, and instantly shrouding the pure white sky in darkness.
[The End—All Things Devoured!!]
The broken sword in Asuka's hand turned to dust in an instant.
The white wolf let out a mournful howl, its white fur being torn apart by black fragments, and blood staining the mirror-like earth red.
A tremendous force knocked them to the ground, and the bird felt its self-awareness rapidly dissipating.
My vision began to blur.
The pale sun dripped black liquid.
He saw the white figure approach step by step, the black blade in his hand reforming.
See? This is the end.
A white figure raised a knife—
Ultimately, you are just...
The world stood still.
An eerie stillness, enough to suffocate everything, suddenly descended upon this wilderness.
In the deepest part of the Mirror Plain, in the shadows where the white sun could never reach, a figure sleeping in a transparent coffin slowly rose to its feet.
He was a young man wearing a black shirt and with neat black hair.
His appearance was exactly like that of a bird, but his temperament was completely different.
His eyes remained closed, and he exuded no murderous intent, malice, or human emotion.
It was a pure silence, a silence born of weariness with existence itself after countless cycles of life and death.
A young man with black hair strolled over.
With each step he took, the mirror beneath his feet blossomed into flowers and transformed into solid earth.
All the broken swords emitted a humble hum, as if welcoming their true, one and only king.
The Mirror Plains world rapidly collapsed and reformed, transforming in a few breaths back into the gloomy sky of Rukongai and its dilapidated yet vibrant streets.
The once arrogant and domineering white figure began to tremble violently the moment the young man opened his eyes.
It seemed to have witnessed the most incomprehensible horror in the world, and the black knife in its hand shattered on its own with a "crack".
"You...how did you...wake up...?"
The white figure's voice was filled with fear as he retreated, even trying to disappear into the shadows.
The black-haired youth remained silent.
He simply walked calmly past the birds and past the white wolf lying on the ground.
He walked up to Bai Ying, extended a fair and jade-like hand, and gently placed it on Bai Ying's forehead.
"That's gone too far."
The black-haired youth's voice was extremely cold, carrying an irresistible air of authority.
"Just taking a lunch break."
"Don't think of yourself as the real master."
The moment that hand touched her, the white figure let out a piercing scream.
Its body was instantly broken into countless white threads, which were scattered between heaven and earth by the black-haired youth.
In an instant, his entire mental world regained its clarity.
The black-haired youth turned his head and looked at the bird sitting on the ground, its face full of astonishment.
"Sorry, there was a slight mishap with the portal; I almost overslept."
"But this is also your problem. If you hadn't caused me trouble, this wouldn't have happened at all."
Although Asuka was shocked, he instinctively trusted the black-haired youth: "What do we do now?"
"Let's deal with the outside situation first..."

The black-haired youth looked at the last remaining hilt of the sword in Asuka's hand, and with a gentle flick of his pale hand—
Please stop breaking our knives.
"
The words fell.
The entire space of consciousness collapsed with a roar, turning into endless white light.
In the real world, Karakura Town.
Time seemed to stop flowing at that moment.
The tug-of-war in Asuka's mental world seemed to have only lasted a few seconds in reality.
The pale white bone blade was only a few centimeters away from the bird's forehead.
Shiba Isshin roared and reached out to protect Asuka. The Quincy girl's longbow was already drawn to its limit, and the spirit arrows made a sharp sound at her fingertips.
boom-!!
A heavy spiritual pressure erupted instantly, centered on the bird.
"This is..." Although Tosen Kaname, who was in the distance, was blind, his sensitivity to spiritual pressure was more acute than that of most Shinigami.
"A third-tier Spirit Might?... Still improving? How is that possible? He's still just a squad member!"
The bird opened its eyes and stretched out a hand.
His hands looked pale from blood loss, and his movements were very slow.
But this slow hand, with an incomprehensible speed, grasped the pale bone blade.
Creak—!
The bone blade, powerful enough to cut through steel, groaned in pain in Asuka's hand.
Then, to everyone's horror, he broke it in his hand.
Xu Bai felt an unprecedented threat and retreated abruptly, a dark purple Cero rapidly condensing in front of his forehead.
However, the bird was faster.
Before the light was about to burst forth, the bird had already swung its broken sword.
The severed blade was wrapped in an unidentified black and red substance, which seemed to have coalesced into the shape of the blade, but it was also very strange.
It was just a simple horizontal slash.
The white shell, which was strong enough to withstand the Holy Annihilation Arrow, was as fragile as withered wood in front of that black blade.
Pfft—!
Dark, ethereal blood splattered in mid-air.
With a bird's utterly indifferent gaze, half of Xu Bai's body was severed by this blade.
"What kind of power is this?" Shiba Isshin, who had rushed over, stopped beside Asuka, not making a move rashly.
Because he's now even unsure whether Asuka is still a Grim Reaper.
The aura emanating from the other party at this moment made Shiba Isshin feel a kind of physiological resistance, and even the Zanpakuto in his hand felt uneasy.
The Quincy girl in the distance stood frozen in place, her spirit longbow trembling slightly from shock.
In her perception, the bird now resembled a giant black hole walking through the world, greedily devouring all the light and spiritual particles around it.
However, as Aizen's prized experimental subject, Hollow White did not completely lose his ability to act.
Even with half its body severed, some kind of command within Xu Bai still drove it to complete its final action.
Instead of continuing to attack the bird, it used the momentum of that slash to instantly rush in front of the girl!
"Oh no!" Shiba Isshin's expression changed drastically.
In that moment of distraction, Xu Bai bit down hard on the girl's shoulder!
Then its shattered body began to expand wildly, as if it wanted to drag the girl away as the final sacrifice!
Dark red veins throbbed violently beneath its skin, and a destructive aura instantly locked onto the two of them!
The bird's figure flashed again.
The black broken blade drew a resolute arc in the air, and the originally violent spiritual pressure miraculously subsided into a single point on the blade.
"Get out of my way."
The tip of the knife slid precisely across the physical connection between Xu Bai and the girl.
Under that slash, Xu Bai was forcibly ripped from the girl's shoulder, flying into the distant sky like a lump of rotten flesh.
Immediately afterwards, an explosion large enough to illuminate half the city burst into the air.
Xu Bai, the source of tonight's chaos, finally vanished completely in that black and red explosion.
With the demise of Xu Bai, the oppressive spiritual pressure emanating from Fei Niao receded rapidly like a tide.
The black and red longsword in his hand transformed back into its broken hilt, and the darkness in his eyes gradually faded, revealing his previously unfocused pupils.
The aura has returned? What's going on?
"Asuka!" Shiba Isshin rushed forward and caught Asuka a second before he collapsed from exhaustion.
The bird opened its mouth: "...I'm looking for a soul, her..."
Before he could finish speaking, the extreme exhaustion caused him to collapse into a deep coma.
