Behind the Scenes in Naruto World Chapter 697 The End of Shinigami World!

Kurosaki Ichigo had never experienced such a predicament.

Even Ulquiorra and Nelliel whom he had met in Hueco Mundo were only as strong as fireflies compared to Uehara Naraku…

The sword directly shattered his Hollowfication’s state!

The skull mask on Kurosaki Ichigo’s face slowly shattered and fell to the ground, revealing a face of disbelief. This young Shinigami only panicked for a second and determination returned to his face!

His reiatsu once again erupted!

The Zangetsu in Kurosaki Ichigo’s hand suddenly stabbed into the ground!

The explosive reiatsu transformed into streaks of purple lightning that continuously flickered on his body, and an even larger Hollow mask slowly appeared on his head!

A strange bull-headed Hollow mask covered Kurosaki Ichigo’s head. This was far from enough. White skeletons slowly emerged from Kurosaki Ichigo’s body, turning into armor to defend against the enemy’s attack!

The skeletons were still spreading

Kurosaki Ichigo’s palms and feet were gradually surrounded by the skeletons, turning into white claws. Purple lightning constantly flashed in his palms and feet!

The current Kurosaki Ichigo…

Compared to the humans and Shinigami, it was more like pure Menos!

Perhaps there had never been a Menos as terrifying as Kurosaki Ichigo in the entire world. Perhaps this had already surpassed the boundaries of Vasto Lorde. Even the strongest Coyote Starrk was far inferior!

Kurosaki Ichigo…

Evolve again!

The current Kurosaki Ichigo has completely evolved into a higher-level Menos, and even the Zangetsu in his hand has a layer of white bone!

The current Kurosaki Ichigo has evolved more thoroughly than when he became the bull-head Menos from before. Because the Quincy power inside him has been awakened by Yhwach, he can use the balance between Shinigami and Quincy in his body to forcibly maintain his reason…

Kurosaki Ichigo’s voice came out from the bull-head skull mask. His voice was a little dull, “This Hollowfication’s state power is too strong. It’s difficult to control, and it can only last for less than five minutes…”

“Don’t worry.”

Uehara Naraku slowly shook his head. He raised the black sword in his hand and pointed it at Kurosaki Ichigo who was in the bull-head Menos state. He chuckled, “If it’s just this bit of strength, you won’t be able to last more than five minutes in my hands…”

There was no need for Kurosaki Ichigo to worry about the duration of his battle state because even in this state, Kurosaki Ichigo could not compete with him!

“Hey, hey, hey… this is too much!”

Kurosaki Ichigo felt that his entire body felt bad!

The truth could indeed be like this…

However, when Uehara Naraku said these words, it was quite a blow to him. The current him was actually not that bad!

“Don’t waste our time…”

The ground under Uehara Naraku’s feet instantly shattered!

Uehara Naraku borrowed the force to rise into the air. The impact brought about by his rapid movement instantly raised a gust of strong wind, forcing Kurosaki Ichigo to subconsciously block this strong wind!

The next moment…

Only then did Kurosaki Ichigo react. He suddenly raised Zangetsu to block the charging Uehara Naraku!

Kacha…

The sound of bones breaking was especially crisp!

Just by facing Uehara Naraku’s attack, Kurosaki Ichigo has already seen a gap in the bone attached to his Zanpakuto!

The lightning that reiatsu transformed into continuously circled around the two of them!

Uehara Naraku brandished the black sword in his hand, and like a swordsman, he continuously slashed toward a Bull-Head Menos!

The sharp black sword in Uehara Naraku’s hand turned into countless black shadows under his sword technique, and attacked Bull-Head Menos’ body!

Kacha…

Kacha kacha…

The sound of bones breaking could be heard continuously…

The shock in Kurosaki Ichigo’s heart almost never stopped!

Under the attack of the black sword, the bone equipped on Zangetsu had been cut into pieces just to resist the attack, and bone fragments were flying everywhere… Even the skeleton defense on Kurosaki Ichigo’s body had been cut into dozens of pieces!

The sound of the black sword hitting the bones was especially clear!

Uehara Naraku’s continuous attacks forced Kurosaki Ichigo to retreat step by step!

He had clearly entered his strongest state, but he could not even resist Uehara Naraku’s sword technique!

Kacha!

The bones on Zangetsu were finally completely chopped into pieces by Uehara Naraku’s sword!

In the state of bull-head Menos, Ichigo held Zangetsu tightly and was directly sent flying by the tremendous force of this final sword strike!

Kurosaki Ichigo, who was sent flying, suddenly raised his head. The horns on the bull-head instantly suffused with strands of reiatsu and turn into a red Cero that shot toward Uehara Naraku!

The oppressiveness of this Cero was so strong…

No one in the entire Arrancar Army can match him!

Kurosaki Ichigo had the confidence that no one could resist this Cero attack!

Clang!

This was the sound of Zanpakuto stabbing into the stone slab!

In Kurosaki Ichigo’s line of sight, he saw Uehara Naraku stabbing his sword into the stone slab. He then turned around and kicked the Cero!

With just one kick, he kicked the Cero back!

“What kind of joke is this!”

Kurosaki Ichigo’s face, which was hidden under the bull-head mask, was shocked!

Even though he knew that there were people in this world who could easily block Cero but the one that Uehara Naraku blocked should be the strongest one in this world!

This Cero also exhausted the Hollow energy in Kurosaki Ichigo’s body!

The Cero, which was kicked back, directly hit the bull-headed Menos. The flames of the explosion instantly submerged Kurosaki Ichigo’s body, and the skeleton defense on his body instantly shattered!

Only after the explosion completely subsided did Kurosaki Ichigo walk out of the smoke in a sorry state. He slowly picked off the bone fragments on his head. The skeleton defense on his body completely shattered, and the bull-head Hollow mask also shattered into pieces…

Kurosaki Ichigo spat out a mouthful of dust. He then reached out to wipe the wound on his forehead, shook his head, and dispersed the dizzy feeling.

In his heart…

There was a faint sense of despair.

Bull-Head Menos, which was his strongest combat state, was completely defeated by Uehara Naraku before he could even last ten seconds. He could not even retaliate…

Inside Kurosaki Ichigo’s body.

“Hehehehe… It’s very difficult to win against such an enemy…”

Just as Kurosaki Ichigo was feeling a little hopeless, White Hollow, who was in Kurosaki Ichigo’s body, suddenly let out a low laugh, causing Kurosaki Ichigo’s mind to sink into it.

Inside Kurosaki Ichigo, White Hollow’s voice was a little weak. He grinned and said, “That’s someone who easily defeated that old man Yamamoto Shigekuni, Lord Sosuke Aizen, and even Yhwach didn’t dare to show himself…”

“Do you want to sit still and wait for death?”

Kurosaki Ichigo frowned.

White Hollow nodded slowly and grinned, “If I were to say it… it is indeed the best choice to sit still and wait for death!”

However, after saying this White Hollow suddenly said, “However… although your chances of winning are very slim… it is not that difficult to not lose unsightly…”

“There are three different powers in your body…”

“Now, with the help of that old fellow Yhwach, you have divided the three powers. The answers you have now are in your hands…”

“What you have to do next…”

“Just like how I lent you all the reiatsu I had…”

White Hollow suddenly clenched his palm, the corners of his mouth forming a huge arc, and his voice suddenly became somewhat cruel, “Find a way to force out all the power of Shinigami and Quincy blood to your Zanpakuto!”

“Before that…”

“Let me help you one last time, little brat!”

After this sentence was said…

White Hollow’s body gradually turned into liquid…

Starting from its feet, stopping its upper body. Its body slowly turned into a mass of liquid and turned into a white Zanpakuto!

Because its reiatsu…

It was completely exhausted by Kurosaki Ichigo in the battle just now!

The current White Hollow had no power to continue participating in this battle. The only thing it could do was turn its body into Zanpakuto at this moment!

“You actually haven’t even thought about winning?”

“It’s rare to see such an arrogant guy being so weak…”

“However, the hope of victory is indeed very slim…”

As White Hollow’s body turned into a white Zangetsu, the other black Zangetsu also appeared in Kurosaki Ichigo’s inner world. The voice of the black Zangetsu was somewhat dull.

The white Zangetsu represents the Hollow power. The black Zangetsu represents the Shinigami power. Obviously, the character of this black Zangetsu does not seem to be very good…

“What?”

Kurosaki Ichigo raised his head hesitantly.

“Weak little brat…”

The black Zangetsu gradually turned into a mass of liquid and landed beside Kurosaki Ichigo, “As long as you don’t die, it is not the time to admit defeat… Now, let me ask you, what price are you willing to pay in order to fight that invincible man outside?”

“…”

Kurosaki Ichigo fell silent.

After a long time, Kurosaki Ichigo slowly raised his head and said in a heavy voice, “I don’t know… but I promised Uehara Naraku that I would fight with him until I die…”

“What is your purpose of fighting?”

“I don’t know.”

“I don’t know what the world he rules will become…”

“The world is indeed not so good right now, but it is not that bad either…”

Kurosaki Ichigo slowly lowered his head, then suddenly raised his head and said, “Now I have to fight him until one of us falls down!”

As for who exactly falls…

Kurosaki Ichigo really didn’t care.

This feeling was like being able to defeat Uehara Naraku was a blessing. If he couldn’t win, then let’s see what kind of world Uehara Naraku turned the world into…

To tell the truth…

Kurosaki Ichigo was indeed a little confused.

If he said that Uehara Naraku was a villain, but he didn’t seem to have done anything bad to them. In all seriousness, he didn’t hurt them seriously…

But if he said that Uehara Naraku was a good person… the entire Soul Society wouldn’t agree!

“What a confused brat…”

The black Zangetsu turned into mist and its voice gradually became a little cold, “If you can’t find the meaning of why you fight, then remember now… From now on, defeat every powerful enemy in front of you!”

Kurosaki Ichigo was silent for a long time. He slowly reached out and grabbed the two swords. When he grabbed the two swords, he immediately understood everything!

After a long time.

Kurosaki Ichigo slowly nodded.

Inside Soul King Palace.

Kurosaki Ichigo stood where he was and closed his eyes.

However, the injuries on his body were rapidly recovering. Black mist and liquid were swirling around his right arm. White mist and liquid were swirling around his left arm!

That was…

The power of black Zangetsu and white Zangetsu!

In the next moment, Kurosaki Ichigo suddenly opened his eyes. A sharp light looked straight at Uehara Naraku, and his figure suddenly disappeared!

The final battle…

It finally opened!

In addition to using his own Shinigami and Hollow power, Kurosaki Ichigo also used the Quincy power in his body, and unconsciously used Blut(Blood Guise) to improve his combat ability!

Kurosaki Ichigo’s body almost instantly appeared in front of Uehara Naraku, and the black mist on his left arm turned into a long and narrow blade, slashing toward Uehara Naraku’s chest!

“Huh?”

Uehara Naraku casually raised the black sword to block.

However, the black sword in his hand was cut off in an instant!

Kurosaki Ichigo’s strike landed heavily on Uehara Naraku’s body. In an instant, Uehara Naraku was sent flying!

The entire battlefield was in an uproar!

Everyone had an expression of shock on their faces!

Everyone saw Uehara Naraku’s body turn into a meteor that smashed into Soul King Palace’s spatial barrier, directly shattering it!

What kind of joke was this!

How could Kurosaki Ichigo have this kind of power!

This little brat actually dared to cheat in front of so many people?

To be honest, even if Uehara Naraku was not stingy with his praise for Kurosaki Ichigo, there were not many people present who believed that Kurosaki Ichigo could send Uehara Naraku flying. As a result, Kurosaki Ichigo actually has the potential to defeat Uehara Naraku!

Uehara Naraku’s figure instantly returned to the battlefield!

The power of that attack just now was indeed very strong, but it actually did not cause him any injuries. This was a problem that made people become rational again…

Except for the rule base ability, so far no one can hurt Uehara Naraku in terms of strength.

“It’s really difficult to win…”

Kurosaki Ichigo’s face was full of resolution. His body instantly rushed toward Uehara Naraku again, and the weapon in his left hand turned into a white Zangetsu and slashed at Uehara Naraku’s body!

“Yeah, it’s really difficult to lose…”

Uehara Naraku chuckled and raised his hand to grab the white Zangetsu!ᴛhis chapter is ᴜpdated by ɴo(v)elFɪre.ɴet

Their bodies involuntarily flew backward due to inertia, and they both fell to the ground in a sorry state!

Bang!

Uehara Naraku punched Kurosaki Ichigo in the head and sent him flying. His figure instantly caught up and kicked Kurosaki Ichigo in the chest!

Kurosaki Ichigo was directly sent flying!

In the next moment, Kurosaki Ichigo instantly got up, and the two of them once again engaged in a life and death battle. However, this time, the flames of war between them were even more intense!

The shock wave produced by each punch!

Every slash that was sent out!

No one would dare to approach it!

The entire spatial barrier of Soul King Palace was on the verge of collapse from their battle. No one had expected that this battle would reach such a level!

However, everyone could see that…

Kurosaki Ichigo was still at a huge disadvantage…

Although every time Uehara Naraku pulled out a Zanpakuto, it would be cut off by Kurosaki Ichigo. However, every time Kurosaki Ichigo cut off Uehara Naraku’s Zanpakuto, he would be severely injured…

As for Uehara Naraku…

He was still as calm as ever!

Until…

Kurosaki Ichigo, who was covered in blood, suddenly stood up. He let out a suppressed roar and suddenly slashed at Uehara Naraku!

“Getsuga Tensho!”

This strike was completely different from the past!

The huge black sword light covered the sky as if it wanted to cut off the entire Soul King Palace space. This Getsuga Tensho contains all the power in Kurosaki Ichigo’s body!

No matter who it was…

Everyone had no choice but to marvel at this Getsuga Tensho!

Uehara Naraku raised his palm. A black light extended from his arm and blocked this sword strike. The Getsuga Tensho’s sharp wind was getting closer and closer, almost cutting off the hair on his forehead!

“Is this the final Getsuga Tensho?”

Uehara raised his head slightly. A few of the hair on his forehead had finally been cut off by the sharpness released by Getsuga Tensho. His body instantly burst out with a reiatsu that was so vast that the entire world was shaking!

Soul King Palace’s space was on the verge of collapse

Whether it was Soul King Palace, Soul Society, Human World, Dangai, Hell, Hueco Mundo… Everyone who possessed spiritual power has felt a vast and ethereal reiatsu!

“This guy has become stronger again…”

Madara’s expression was also a little solemn.

Every time Madara thought that he was stronger and thought that he could catch up to Uehara Naraku, Uehara Naraku would appear in an even more terrifying manner…

Damn…

How long would it take for him to catch up?

“You must be joking…”

Kurosaki Ichigo’s vision darkened.

That strike was his final Getsuga Tensho!

However, Uehara Naraku had actually blocked it with his bare hands. This was a bit too disappointing. However, this wasn’t considered regretful, right?

Kurosaki Ichigo’s face flashed with a touch of relief. This sword strike was already his strongest attack. After this attack, his Shinigami and Hollow power in his body have been exhausted, while his Quincy power was extremely weak…

In the Shadow World.

Yhwach’s expression was extremely ugly.

If you just look at it, the strength of this reiatsu was almost better than that of the Soul King, how could there be such an existence!

Unless… Soul King’s spiritual power… was also absorbed by this guy!

If that was the case…

Who could possibly defeat this guy?

Just as Yhwach was still hiding in the Shadow World deep in thought, he saw Uehara Naraku crush that Getsuga Tensho with his bare hands and slowly raise his palm…

At this moment…

A sense of crisis suddenly emerged from the bottom of Yhwach’s heart!

However, he, who was omniscient and omnipotent, was actually unable to determine where this crisis came from. He could only hastily gather his Wandenreich members to prepare for battle…

“Is that the final Getsuga Tensho?”

Uehara Naraku walked step by step to Kurosaki Ichigo’s side. After he praised him softly, he suddenly raised his palm toward the sky, “Perhaps no one in the entire Soul Society can surpass this. As respect for you, I will also use my strongest move…”

“…”

Kurosaki Ichigo’s expression was a little strange.

The power in his body had already been exhausted!

Even when the strength in his body was at its strongest, he couldn’t stop Uehara Naraku’s attack, so how could he be able to block Uehara Naraku’s strongest move!

“Black hole…”

Uehara Naraku raised his palm. The entire Soul King Palace seemed to have instantly become dark, but light returned almost in an instant!

This was his action of putting the entire Shinigami World into the Black Hole Universe.

Madara, Kabuto, and the others already knew about this matter. Everyone’s mood slightly relaxed. This also meant that their mission was over.

However…

Uehara Naraku’s actions were not over yet.

“Annihilation…”

Uehara Naraku’s gaze suddenly fell on a shadow. A pitch-black energy suddenly penetrated into the shadow, completely annihilating the hidden Wandenreich!

The horror of this Black Hole: Annihilation…

It was even more powerful than the last Getsuga Tensho of Kurosaki Ichigo!

Every Shinigami and Arrancar couldn’t hide the shock on their faces. Even Sosuke Aizen, Urahara Kisuke, and Yamamoto Shigekuni’s expressions changed drastically!

Although they didn’t know the effect of this attack, it was clear that Yhwach from the Shadow World wasn’t feeling too good…

Perhaps…

He has already been wiped out.

This battle could already be declared over at this time.

Gotei 13 and Kurosaki Ichigo have completely failed, but they saw the terrifying power of Uehara Naraku with their own eyes, so they were not too disappointed…

Moreover, as the winner of the battle, Uehara Naraku did not seem to have any thoughts of executing prisoners and losers. He even ordered his subordinates to help treat the injured.

“Lord Uehara Naraku…”

Ukitake Jushiro held the wound on his chest and stood up. He asked in a deep voice, “How are you going to deal with us? And where is the Soul King…”

“The Soul King collapsed on his own when he saw me.”

Uehara Naraku raised his eyebrows slightly and said softly, “This world no longer needs a Soul King to maintain stability. If that guy wants to live an ordinary life, then let him be. As for how to deal with you… Kabuto?”

Faced with this kind of matter, Uehara Naraku still chose to believe in Kabuto.

Kabuto nodded and stood up. With a calm expression, he began to announce the various rules of the Akatsuki Organization.

But because Shinigami World was relatively complicated.

Soul Society’s Gotei 13 and Hueco Mundo’s Arrancar Army will form an alliance to receive the souls and the Hollows respectively. They can’t interfere with the other party’s actions, they can’t destroy Human World’s stability, etc..

These…

Kabuto was very familiar with it.

Moreover, there was also Ichimaru Gin and the others helping.

When Kabuto finished dealing with the matter and reported it to Uehara Naraku, he looked at Uehara Naraku’s absent-minded expression and his heart finally tightened slightly.

“Naraku-sama…”

Kabuto knelt on one knee on the ground like a ninja. This was a move he had never done before, and Uehara Naraku could not help but be surprised.

“What’s wrong?”

The interactions between them had always been carefree.

Kabuto slowly raised his head. The corners of his mouth curled into a smile, but there was a layer of fog in his eyes, “Naraku-sama’s strength is getting stronger and stronger… This time, please allow this subordinate to stay here…”

In the past…

Kabuto could still feel the gap between them. Now, Kabuto could feel the difference between him and Uehara.

Even though this was something that would happen sooner or later…

However, after Shinigami World was sucked into the black hole universe by Uehara, Kabuto realized that he could no longer keep up with Uehara’s footsteps.

“Alright…”

Uehara glanced at Kabuto and then at Shutara Senjumaru who was secretly observing Kabuto. The corners of his mouth could not help but twitch, “I understand… I wish you happiness.”
