In the underground training ground
Alex emerged holding Arturia and Kurumi in both hands.
Alex: "So which of you came up with this stupid idea? Although I already know. One went to find fun, and the other wanted to stop her, so she followed her. I'm right?"
Arturia and Kurumi were silent as if they were thinking about something.
"Hey!! Alex! Where did you go !? I had to stop this "walking bomb" from destroying this underground shelter. "
A familiar and always complaining man appeared in sight.
Kazuma looked surprised at Arturia and Kurumi in Alex's arms.
Kazuma: "Why are they so beaten !? Who were they fighting with !? "
Alex was about to tell everything, when suddenly Kurumi spoke up.
"This is not your business. And by the way, if you are here now, who is looking after the "walking bomb"? "
At first Kazuma wanted to say something, but Kurumi's reminder immediately had an effect and he ran towards the cave.
Alex looked at Kurumi and asked:
"So you don't want to talk about your defeat? Was it really that bad? "
Kurumi: "You could say that. I learned again what helplessness is "
Alex: "Well, you know, even though he looked like a child, he is at least 10 times older than me, and now add the fact that he is a" genius "and then you get a strong opponent. And now thank Arturia for saving you "
When Alex finished speaking, Arturia, who had been silent all the time and thought about something, turned to Kurumi.
At the same time, Kurumi turned to Arturia.
Kurumi: "Even though I didn't want you to save me, you saved me. So I think I'll say it. Thanks"
Artoria opened her eyes in surprise, as if not expecting such words, and then smiled.
Arturia: "You are always welcome"
Alex: "Well, since we've already decided everything here, let's go and see how things are with Megumin and at the same time with Ichigo."
Walking a little forward a strange picture appeared before them.
Kazuma held the megumin by the shoulders while Ichigo tried to wrest the staff away from her.
Kazuma: Megumin !! Don't you understand where we are!?!? Another explosion and we will be buried alive !!? Give back your staff !!!
Hey, why are you there for a long time !? Can't you take the staff away from her !? "
Ichigo, despite his training, could not wrest the staff from Megumin's hands ...
Ichigo: How did I know she had such power ?! And how do you calm her down at all !? "
Megumin: "I will never give you my staff !!! Explosions are my life !!! Just look at this underground training complex !!! He just wants someone to blow it up !!! "
Kazuma: "You almost blew everything out with the last blast !! If not for Yoruichi, then we would all be dead !! "
Ichigo: "Exactly !! Therefore, be kind and give back your staff !!! "
Megumin: "Never !!!"
"Ichigo looks like you're completely relaxed. Have you forgotten why we are here? "
Yoruichi approached them and abruptly appeared near Megumin and took the staff.
Megumin: "Noooetttt !! My staff! My life!! I'm dying!! Aaaaa !! "
Megumin, having lost her staff, uttered a death cry and fell to the ground and no longer moved.
Yoruichi ignored Megumin and looked at us.
Yoruichi: "here, according to you, I see not everything went smoothly. And how do you like the strength of the captains? "
As she spoke, she looked at Arturia and Kurumi.
Arturia: "They are very strong. My opponent kept his distance and attacked. Thus, I had no chance "
Kurumi: "I feel like I can't fight them. Although, if the attack is secret, there will be good chances. And so I can only fight with lieutenants and officers "
Yoruichi: "Nice analysis. If so then you know what to do right? "
After saying this, Yoruichi looked at Ichigo who was continuing to train.
Both girls nodded their heads and went to train.
Yoruichi then went to the recumbent megumin and said:
"Sorry, but I won't give you the staff today. I will only give it to you when we go to save Rukia. Do you understand? "
Megumin lifted her head and nodded quickly.
It looks like it's true that the staff is her life. After all, without him, she would not be able to use explosion magic.
Alex, in turn, asked Yoruichi to practice with him.
Yoruichi answered this quite simply.
"Right now, you have a lack of balance between body and spiritual energy. In fact, there are only souls in the community of souls, and then, actually, what is the point of training the body? But the soul is a vessel in which all your spiritual energy is located, and the stronger and stronger it is, the longer you will fight and the easier it will be to take blows. "
After giving a short lecture to Alex, Yoruichi went to see how Ichigo was doing.
Well, Alex started a routine workout to strengthen the body.
What about Kazuma ..... He took Megumin to the cave and then joined the girls for "training".
Two hours later, an explosion thundered at the entrance to the training complex.
Everyone quickly gathered at the entrance to see the enemy.
"It looks like I'm not mistaken that you will be here. Oh, so the other invaders are here too? Didn't know that you would unite "
A guy with red hair and a sword in his hand came downstairs.
Ichigo: "It's you! Renji Abarai! "
Renji: "Haven't seen each other for a long time! Since you beat me. Apparently you want to master Bankai as soon as possible. So here I am for the same reason. Don't worry, I'm not going to fight you. "
Kazuma walked over to Alex and said:
"I don't like this guy. You see what his eyebrows and face are. It is straightforward to say that he is a bad person "
Alex: "You should have seen your face when you wanted to steal the panties from those girls near the guilds. This is exactly the face of a villain "
Kazuma: "It was self defense !! If I hadn't, they would have ruined my reputation !! "
Alex: "And instead you ruined your reputation yourself."
Kazuma fell silent.
Renji came down and came to us.
Renji: "Of course, as an enemy, I should ask this directly, but I will. What's your goal? "
Kazuma and I looked at each other and decided to tell him our purpose.
Renji: So you want to save Rukia too. Then there is a chance. I'll tell you something. The execution of Rukia was postponed until tomorrow at noon "
Yoruichi and Ichigo had surprised faces.
And Alex and his group have the usual ones. After all, they knew that it would be so.
Yoruichi thought that Ichigo would not have time to master the Bankai, but a sudden surge of spiritual power from Ichigo caught her attention.
Ichigo: "So tomorrow is it? Then I will train to the point of exhaustion today and master the Bankai! "
Alex and the group also decided to do hellish training today (except for Kazuma and Megumin).
This is how everyone began their preparations for tomorrow.
