Chapter 189 - Chapter 189: The mantis stalks the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind.

On a sand dune not far from Las Noches, five people in white robes were waiting there. If Yamabuki were here, he would be able to recognize at a glance that these five people were members of the Sternritter.

There are also a few acquaintances among them.

That pirated Hulk Eugene, the chained sister Momo who likes to play bondage, and the sandstorm man Bard.

There was also a thin boy who was sitting on the sand slope playing with sand. His expression was very gloomy, giving people a feeling of being kept at a distance.

The last man was a hairy uncle with a very strong physique and a sunny and cheerful smile.

You can tell at first glance that he is a sunny and cheerful big boy.

Suddenly, a white shadow flashed in front of the five of them.

A girl wearing a cloak appeared in front of them. The girl took off her cloak, revealing a delicate face like a doll.

"I got the stuff!" The girl gently shook the bottle in her hand: "I'm sure that person drank it. There should be his saliva on it. This thing can serve as a medium."

Then he handed the bottle to the boy who was playing in the sand nearby.

"Justin, stop playing there. The rest is your job. I didn't expect that these Shinigami would really guess that we could move to Hueco Mundo. If we don't deal with them quickly, the consequences will be disastrous. Especially the one who calls himself the chief of staff, Yamabuki. The commander has ordered that he must die in Hueco Mundo at all costs." The girl took off her cloak, revealing long hair as brilliant as gold.

This girl holds a very high status in the Sternritter. Her name is Isaac Woline, and she is the twin sister of Marton, the leader of the Sternritter.

The idea of using Hollows as spies was not only thought of by Yamabuki. As soon as Marton arrived in Hueco Mundo, he thought of using Hollows as his scouts. Once these Hollows discovered the Shinigami, they would immediately report the news to the Quincy.

Although Hollow looks scary, once it enters a large-scale legion battle, it will directly become cannon fodder for both sides.

They have no organizational ability and no commander and are just a group of disunited people.

Therefore, Yamabuki and his group's whereabouts were exposed not long after they entered the Hueco Mundo.

The little boy who was playing with sand had a bitter look on his face and took the wine bottle to extract the saliva on it.

The little boy's name is Justin. He has a very special ability. He has no direct combat ability but can transfer physical damage to designated targets.

His holy letter is M, the name of his power, self-mutilation.

By the way, only the damage he suffers when he injures himself will be transferred to the target. If someone else slashes him, the damage will only be borne by himself. Moreover, due to the special nature of his ability, the pain he suffers when he injures himself is twice that of an ordinary person.

And if you want to specify the target, you must have the corresponding medium.

When many Quincies besieged Yamabuki and Saito Furoubushi, inexplicable wounds often appeared on the two of them. In fact, it was this young man who was secretly causing trouble.

When fighting with Bad, Yamabuki was beaten by Justin, and his flesh and blood flew everywhere. Justin used the blood as a medium to attack Yamabuki.

Of course, this kind of attack is not unlimited. Every time he launches an attack on the enemy, the medium will be consumed a little. When all the media are consumed, the connection between him and the target will be broken.

After he had consumed all of Yamabuki's blood, he saw that a tuft of Saito Furuobushi had been cut off. He used that tuft of hair as a medium to attack Saito Furuobushi, almost killing him.

At the same time, his ability can only transfer damage, not death.

That is to say, if he stabbed his own heart with a knife when activating his ability, causing him to die immediately, he would really die, and the damage would not be transferred.

Precisely because the conditions for activation are so harsh, his ability appears even more mysterious and unpredictable, making it difficult for even gods or ghosts to defend against it.

Yamabuki exclaimed that he had seen a ghost.

Moreover, he was very good at hiding and never revealed his true identity until the very end.

Justin took out a dagger from his bag, then took out a bottle of specially prepared poison and gently sprinkled it on the dagger.

This poison is specially formulated. Once it enters the human body, it will quickly flow into the heart along with the blood, causing the heart to dissolve. No matter whether the target is a Shinigami or a Quincy, they will surely die when facing this poison.

"Are you sure this poison won't harm me?" Justin said tremblingly.

If his ability is not activated in time, he will be the one to die.

"A man should have courage! Boy, do you want me to help you?" The hairy, strong man smiled with a row of white teeth.

"No need for that!" Justin placed his left hand on the sand, raised the dagger with his right hand, took a deep breath, and then stabbed the back of his hand with the knife.

The severe pain made him scream.

"Ability activated, self-harm, damage transfer!"

In an instant, the wounds on his hands, along with the poison, all disappeared and were transferred to the body of Yamabuki in the distance.

Yamabuki followed Hollow to the Quincy's palace but soon discovered that something was wrong. This palace was just for show. It was a palace built in a short period of time using spirit particles. It was not the real palace of the Quincy. Oh no, he had fallen into a trap.

Could it be that the Quincy had surrounded this place and were preparing to kill him? Yamabuki quickly drew his sword and looked around vigilantly, but except for this fake palace, the surroundings were quiet, and there was no movement at all.

What's going on?

Have all of Quincy read Romance of the Three Kingdoms?

He followed Cao Cao's example and set up seventy-two suspicious tombs.

That's not right! The Romance of the Three Kingdoms hadn't been written yet at that time! Besides, can these foreigners read Chinese?

The atmosphere here was full of weirdness. Just as he was about to retreat, he suddenly felt a sharp pain in the palm of his hand, and a bloody hole appeared out of nowhere on his left hand.

Yamabuki's scalp tingled, he was too familiar with this ability. When he was exploring the real world with Saito Fuuma, a Quincy had been attacking him with this ability. He didn't expect that the other party was lying in ambush nearby!

"Not good, retreat!" Yamabuki shouted.

At the same time, the wound on his hand healed at an extremely fast speed, and it was such a minor injury that he didn't even need a Band-Aid.

However, just when Yamabuki thought that it was all over, his legs suddenly became weak, and he fell to the ground with a thump. He felt his heart was burning in flames, and indescribable pain spread from his chest.

"The heart... the heart is dissolving! It's extremely poisonous! Puff!" A large mouthful of blood mixed with heart fragments spurted out of Yamabuki's mouth. Unohana had already learned some medical skills and hurriedly squatted down to check Yamabuki's wound.
