Chapter 341: Everyone was Saved by Ryouta
Ryouta raised his head and looked at the people in the cell, then spoke, "Can you let these people go with me?"
Ryouta's behavior shocked the other companions. After all, they had targeted him many times along the way. Now that he had gotten the chance to escape, he unexpectedly wanted to bring them along with him. This made the group look at him with newfound respect.
Even Raymond secretly sighed in his heart that he didn't expect Ryouta, although harsh with his words, actually had some compassion.
The masked man thought about it carefully. "I don't think you can complete this mission by yourself. The Soul Slayer must be guarded by someone, so you should go with them."
As they spoke, several masked men walked toward Uehara Shiroha and the others one by one, took out a black pill from their robes, and fed it directly to each of them.
Then the masked man spoke, "Don't think I'm stupid. You won't want to come back after you leave. But if you take this pill and don't come back to get the antidote within seven days, have you seen the low-level Hollows in those rooms? You will become like them."
Ryouta cleared his throat hard, trying to spit out the pill he had just taken, but he had already swallowed it.
Afterwards, the chains binding Uehara Shiroha and the others were also opened, but at this time Uehara Shiroha no longer dared to act rashly. If they hadn't taken the pill just now, Uehara Shiroha and the others should have been able to fight their way out together. This group shouldn't have been able to do anything to them.
But at this moment, his life was in the hands of the other party. If he acted rashly, he might not be able to get the antidote.
Uehara Shiroha turned around and looked at the low-level Hollows imprisoned in other cells. Perhaps they were also people captured by the Dawn organization, and they had all been turned into such a ghostly appearance by them.
For those who nurture Hollows like the Dawn organization, the combat effectiveness of these low-level Hollows wasn't strong and there was no value in cultivating them, so the final fate of these low-level Hollows was to be devoured by those high-level ones.
After the masked men left, Raymond stepped forward and helped Ryouta up, and couldn't help but sigh, "I didn't expect that at this critical moment, you would still remember to rescue us. Even though they forced us to take the pills, it's better than being locked up here and waiting to die."
Uehara Shiroha sneered and said to Raymond, "You think too highly of him. The reason this guy rescued us together is simply because he needs our help. He may really know the location of the Soul Slayer, but with his strength, do you think he can bring it out by himself? If he can't bring the Soul Slayer back within seven days, he'll die anyway."
Ryouta said to Uehara Shiroha with a look of disdain, "Don't think that everyone is the same as you and that everyone is so calculating."
Uehara Shiroha shrugged, turned around, and pulled Chiakura along as he prepared to leave. "Since you don't need our help, we'll leave first."
Ryouta called out to Uehara Shiroha from behind, "If you leave now, neither of you will survive. I don't believe you can get the antidote from the Dawn organization. After seven days, you'll become like these low-level Hollows, trapped in Hueco Mundo forever, waiting to be devoured by high-level Hollows at any time."
Chapter 342: Top-level Zanpakutō [Soul Slayer]
Uehara Shiroha looked indifferent. "Since you can bring the Soul Slayer back by yourself, why do you care what we do? You just need to do your own thing. Do I need to tell you where we're going?"
Among this group of people, Uehara Shiroha was the strongest and the only one who possessed the abilities of the Hōgyoku and Infinite Tsukuyomi.
Ryouta was dumbfounded. If it weren't for Uehara Shiroha's help, he wouldn't be able to bring the Soul Slayer back at all. Although Uehara Shiroha's level of Hōgyoku was very low, it was still better than those who didn't have it.
If Uehara Shiroha just walked away, they wouldn't be able to complete the mission with just a few people, and they would become low-level Hollows in seven days. This was something Ryouta could not accept at all—he might as well have been killed with the knife.
Looking at Uehara Shiroha's gradually disappearing back, Ryouta quickly caught up with him and spoke to him sincerely, "My attitude just now may not have been very good. I apologize to you. We really need your help this time."
Uehara Shiroha glanced at Ryouta, and at this time, Chiakura next to him also spoke, "Why don't we just follow him? Although this guy is annoying, the other people are innocent. We can't just abandon everyone because of him alone. Besides, we both took the medicine."
Uehara Shiroha nodded slowly, then said to Ryouta, "I'm just giving face to Chiakura, so please don't take yourself too seriously."
Ryouta nodded repeatedly and didn't dare to refute Uehara Shiroha any further.
Then several people left the Dawn organization's base.
Uehara Shiroha looked at his special mission and realized that it wasn't so easy to repair the crack. He had to solve this problem first and then deal with the Dawn organization.
What Uehara Shiroha didn't know was how many high-level Hollows would escape to the outer areas during the time he was away, which would cause Hueco Mundo to become extremely chaotic. These high-level Hollows could continuously complete their own evolution by constantly devouring low-level ones.
By the time they came back, the outer areas might look completely different.
No one knew the way, so Ryouta was leading everyone in front. A day passed, and the surroundings were still desolate, with no sign of any organization at all. Uehara Shiroha asked curiously, "I'm asking you, are you actually a member of the Sirius organization? Right now you can't even find your way back."
Ryouta said with an impatient look on his face, "I am one, aren't you? If it weren't for my identity, you'd still be locked there, and you might have been swallowed by those Hollows. Just follow me obediently, but we probably won't get there today. Let's find a place to rest."
Ryouta then found a place to sit down, and after everyone sat down, Chiakura whispered beside Uehara Shiroha, "I've also heard of the Sirius organization. Their base seems to be on the surface. The outer areas are very large, and it still takes a certain distance to get from the outer areas to the surface, but we should be there soon tomorrow."
Uehara Shiroha nodded slowly, thinking secretly that letting Chiakura follow him was the right choice. She was a walking encyclopedia.
Chapter 343: Advanced Hollow Quickley
Chiakura knows everything about Hueco Mundo. Although she isn't very strong, she can be a very good guide to Uehara Shiroha. If Ryouta has any unfavorable thoughts toward Uehara Shiroha in the future, Chiakura will be able to detect it at the first moment and warn him in time.
After everyone sat down, Raymond asked Ryouta seriously, "Our mission this time is quite difficult. The Zanpakutō is considered a very advanced weapon. Your organization should be guarding it very strictly. Why don't you tell us about the situation in advance so we can take action when the time comes."
Ryouta answered, "The one guarding the Soul Slayer is Quickley. This isn't a person's name, but a high-level Hollow. This guy is very powerful. Even if we join forces, we may not be able to kill him."
Uehara Shiroha asked Ryouta with a smile, "I didn't expect your organization is the same as the Dawn organization. You actually raise this kind of thing."
Ryouta gave Uehara Shiroha a cold look. "Our two organizations have been secretly fighting each other for a long time. If we want to fight fire with fire, we must use the same methods. These people from the Dawn organization have never mastered the essence of nurturing Hollows. Constantly devouring these low-level Hollows can indeed allow high-level Hollows to complete their evolution, but there is a limit."
"Quickley devoured some high-level Hollows in the inner areas. The Soul Slayer is considered the most precious treasure of our organization, so we let Quickley guard it."
After listening to this, Uehara Shiroha gradually frowned. At least from what Ryouta said, this mission wouldn't be easy. If the person guarding the Soul Slayer was also a human, then Uehara Shiroha wouldn't take him seriously at all.
The Sirius organization certainly had no shortage of powerful people, but it was impossible to send all of these powerful people to guard the same thing. Uehara Shiroha's own strength was formidable, and with the addition of several other companions, ordinary people shouldn't be their match.
But Quickley, who had devoured countless high-level Hollows, did make Uehara Shiroha a little concerned.
After a night's rest, everyone felt refreshed and ready to continue their journey. It was rare to see people in Hueco Mundo. If someone appeared here, they must be quite capable. Uehara Shiroha immediately raised his guard.
Just as everyone was preparing to continue their journey, a figure gradually approached from a distance. When the other party came closer, a smile immediately appeared on Ryouta's face, and he hurried forward to start a conversation.
"It's you, Sutton, why are you here?"
It wasn't difficult to see from the conversation between the two that Ryouta should be acquainted with this person and was most likely from the same organization.
Uehara Shiroha carefully looked at the Sutton in front of him. He was wearing a black robe and had a long sword at his waist. Being able to walk all the way here alone, it was clear that this person must be very strong.
After all, the outer areas now were completely different from before. There were not only many high-level Hollows migrating, but also many high-level Hollows that had completed their evolution after devouring low-level ones.
Ryouta looked very excited, but Sutton's expression was very disdainful. He seemed to look down on Ryouta in front of him, and his eyes were full of contempt.
Chapter 344: The Arrogant Sutton
"You accepted the organization's mission and completed it quite quickly, but the Black Spirit appeared again. It seems that the Black Spirit isn't our ultimate target. I don't know how many high-level Hollows like the Black Spirit the Dawn organization has in their hands."
Ryouta scratched his head in embarrassment. "So did you solve the problem this time? Were the cracks repaired?"
Sutton shook his head. "One Black Spirit is easy to deal with, but the Dawn organization is still continuously releasing new Black Spirits to the border between the outer areas and the inner areas. The number of cracks is also increasing."
Uehara Shiroha was shocked to hear this news. There were two things that shocked him. One was that the number of cracks had increased, which made his task even more difficult to complete. Although he got the Hōgyoku, its level hadn't been improved. This was also the thing that worried him the most.
Another point was that from this person's narration, he learned that Sutton had easily dealt with the Black Spirit by himself. Uehara Shiroha had figured out the range of the Black Spirit's activities at that time, and then reluctantly cooperated with his teammates to kill it. But this person was able to do it alone. It seemed that his strength was superior to his own.
Sutton looked at Ryouta next to him, then asked, "I was originally planning to go back to the organization to call for help, but since I happened to run into you, why don't you come back with me? You were able to complete all the previous missions. The strength of these Black Spirits hasn't increased significantly. Just come back with me once more. The two of us should be enough."
How could Ryouta agree at this time? After all, he only had seven days. His main goal this time was to get the Soul Slayer, but he couldn't tell the other party his real purpose, so he could only say with difficulty, "Forget it. My strength is far inferior to yours. It was luck that I was able to complete the task before. Can you see the group of people behind me? I completed it together with them."
Sutton was a very arrogant man. He didn't even take a second look at the group of people behind Ryouta until he mentioned them. It wasn't until he heard Ryouta mention it that Sutton turned sideways and glanced behind him.
When Sutton saw Uehara Shiroha, his eyes stayed on him for a long time, as if he noticed something was wrong, but he didn't say anything.
Then Sutton spoke, "I guess you don't have much ability. It seems I still have to go back and find someone to help me."
Ryouta smiled awkwardly, not knowing how to respond.
Later, a new member was added to the group, and Sutton was ready to return to the Sirius organization with them. The two men walked in the front. On the way, Sutton asked Ryouta curiously, "Didn't you get to know this group of people when you completed the mission to kill the Black Spirit? Since the Black Spirit has been killed, why are they still following you?"
Ryouta thought for a long time but couldn't come up with a good reason, so he could only deal with it vaguely for the time being. "They also want to join our organization, so I want to bring them back to let the leaders evaluate them."
Sutton subconsciously looked back, then said with disdain, "Just these few people? They need to form a gang to kill a Black Spirit. They must be as useless as you."
Although Ryouta was dissatisfied, he didn't dare to refute him.
Chapter 345: Walking Out of the Outer Areas and Coming to the Surface
Ryouta was also frightened along the way. After all, he had offended many of these so-called companions during this period. If his desire to obtain the Soul Slayer was revealed by these people, he was afraid nothing good would happen to him.
What Ryouta was most worried about was Uehara Shiroha, so he kept his distance from him along the way.
The Sirius organization was located on the surface of Hueco Mundo, a realm where humans and Hollows coexisted. After reaching the surface, the surrounding environment underwent dramatic changes.
The inner and outer areas were mostly desolate, with nothing but emptiness and endless deserted buildings. When they got to the surface, they could clearly see signs of human activity, with all kinds of buildings everywhere.
Uehara Shiroha and the others followed Ryouta and soon arrived at the base of the Sirius organization. Before entering the door, Chiakura whispered a reminder to Uehara Shiroha.
"I heard that the leader of the Sirius organization is a man with an extremely bad temper. If you see him, try to let Ryouta communicate with him. We should avoid any contact with him, so as not to get ourselves into trouble."
Uehara Shiroha nodded slowly. The information provided by Chiakura was quite credible.
As soon as he entered the organization, Ryouta said to Sutton next to him, "I'll take them to find a place to stay first, you go ahead and do your thing."
Sutton looked at Ryouta and asked him, "Didn't you say that these people also want to join our organization? Aren't you going to take them to see the president now?"
Ryouta thought he could deflect the other party with just a few words, but he didn't expect that Sutton had been doubting him all the way. He had no choice now. In order to make the other party believe him, he could only take Uehara Shiroha and the others to meet the president first.
Walking along the stone path, they soon arrived at a hall. After entering the hall, Uehara Shiroha quickly noticed the man sitting in the center.
This person was sitting in the highest position, surrounded by many people. He should be the president of the Sirius organization.
Ryouta walked forward, placed his right palm on his chest, knelt on one knee and said, "Lord Miyamoto, the mission has been accomplished."
It seemed that the Miyamoto-sama mentioned by Ryouta was the president of the Sirius organization.
Miyamoto nodded with satisfaction, then spoke, "The mission was accomplished well this time, but the matter hasn't been completely resolved. I've already heard Sutton's report."
Soon Miyamoto noticed the people behind Ryouta, so he asked curiously, "Who are these people you brought with you? Can you introduce them to me?"
Ryouta answered, "They are my companions whom I met during this mission. Without their help, I wouldn't have been able to kill the Black Spirit so easily. They have heard about our Sirius organization's reputation a long time ago, so they want to join."
Miyamoto narrowed his eyes and looked carefully at the people in front of him, then checked everyone's attribute panels. When checking Uehara Shiroha's panel, Miyamoto's expression obviously changed.
Miyamoto began to be curious about Uehara Shiroha. After all, not everyone could get an item like the Hōgyoku. Although he had some doubts in his heart, he didn't voice them. Miyamoto stood up and said with a smile, "Since you are willing to join the Sirius organization, I welcome you as well."
Chapter 346: Miyamoto with a Bad Temper
Miyamoto's actions made Uehara Shiroha feel a little strange. Before entering the door, Chiakura had already warned him that Miyamoto had a bad temper. But from the behavior this man was showing now, it was impossible to tell that he was a person with a bad temper.
On the contrary, Uehara Shiroha felt that this person was easy to talk to and didn't make things difficult for them.
Then Miyamoto smiled and said to the others, "You guys should withdraw for a while. I'll have someone arrange your accommodations."
Then Miyamoto looked at Ryouta again. "You stay here for a while. You completed the mission so well this time. The organization will give you a reward."
Ryouta frowned immediately after hearing this, and had a bad feeling in his heart.
Uehara Shiroha didn't take this matter to heart. Since he was allowed to leave, he took his companions away without hesitation.
Unexpectedly, as soon as they came out and the door was closed, they heard Ryouta's miserable cry from inside the hall.
Uehara Shiroha's heart tightened and he turned around to go in, but was pulled back by Chiakura. "It's their own business—let's not get involved. The most important thing now is to protect ourselves."
Uehara Shiroha looked down on Ryouta in the first place, so his life or death naturally had nothing to do with him. However, if Ryouta died at this moment, they probably wouldn't be able to survive. After all, among this group of people, only Ryouta knew where the Soul Slayer was placed.
Uehara Shiroha answered, "You guys wait outside for me. I'll go in and take a look. We can't let him kill Ryouta."
After saying that, Uehara Shiroha pushed the door open and rushed in. Ryouta was lying on the ground, hunched over and twitching.
Uehara Shiroha stepped forward and asked Miyamoto, "Since he has already completed the mission assigned by the organization, why would you want to hurt him like this?"
Miyamoto still smiled calmly. "The mission was completed, but the root of the problem wasn't eradicated. He has received the attributes from the mission reward, but he didn't help the organization successfully solve the problem. Isn't it normal to punish him a little?"
"Besides, such a simple mission actually required the cooperation of so many people to complete. Our Sirius organization doesn't allow such trash to exist."
Only then did Uehara Shiroha finally understand that what Chiakura had said was true. Miyamoto appeared to be amiable on the surface, but in fact, this was all an illusion—he was still an arrogant and violent person inside.
Uehara Shiroha said sarcastically, "So if we work hard for the Sirius organization in the future, this will be the only result in the end? If you continue to act in this way, I really don't know how long your organization can survive, and whether anyone is willing to join you."
After hearing what Uehara Shiroha said, Miyamoto actually walked down from his seat. Coming to Uehara Shiroha's side, Miyamoto looked him up and down carefully, then leaned close to him and asked, "Are you questioning my way of managing the organization?"
Uehara Shiroha replied calmly without changing his expression. "Of course. For veterans, your method may be able to improve their efficiency in performing tasks. But for newcomers, your behavior is clearly discouraging them. I believe not many people would dare to join such an organization."
Chapter 347: Saving Ryouta Again
Miyamoto smiled coldly, then slowly walked back to his seat and sat down. "I will consider your suggestion. Since someone is pleading for you, then get up and do what you should do."
Uehara Shiroha stepped forward, helped Ryouta up, and took him away.
After they went out, everyone looked at Ryouta with pity. Although he was the most annoying among this group of people, usually very harsh with his words and difficult for everyone to understand, when they really saw this scene, their hearts sank.
Uehara Shiroha helped Ryouta all the way to their residence, and Ryouta said to him, "Thank you for pleading for me. If it weren't for you, I would have died here today."
Uehara Shiroha waved his hand. "I'm doing this for our own sake. If you die, how can we bring the Soul Slayer back? Besides, this guy didn't intend to kill you at all. He just wanted to teach you a lesson. Do you really think that I, a new member of the organization, can change his mind with just a few words? I'm just giving him a way out."
Ryouta nodded slowly, and then Uehara Shiroha continued to ask, "There's no time to lose. We don't have much time left. We can't delay any longer. Where is the Soul Slayer?"
Ryouta answered slowly, "It's located in the basement of the great hall, and Quickley is hiding there."
Upon hearing this news, Uehara Shiroha immediately frowned. Since Miyamoto was able to become the president of the Sirius organization, he must be very powerful, at least stronger than any of them.
Quickley was already a rather special high-level Hollow. It was already difficult to deal with Quickley, and now it seemed they had to avoid Miyamoto as well.
Chiakura asked Ryouta, "But you didn't explain this to us clearly before we came. It's so troublesome. We thought that as long as we dealt with Quickley, we would naturally be able to get the Soul Slayer."
Ryouta raised his head and looked at Chiakura, then retorted, "Even if I told you, what would happen? Are you not going to do it? Don't you want to live?"
Ryouta made Chiakura speechless and she could only remain quiet.
Just as they were discussing, the door was suddenly kicked open, and the person standing at the door was Sutton.
Uehara Shiroha immediately became alert, his hand gripping the hilt of his Zanpakutō at his waist.
Sutton looked at them with a smirk on his face. "I was wondering why you didn't come back for such a long time after completing the mission. I'm afraid you were captured by the Dawn organization during this period. It seems that your purpose for coming back this time is very clear. You probably want to get the Soul Slayer, right?"
Uehara Shiroha whispered to his companions beside him, "We must not let this guy leave this room alive, otherwise our plans will all be ruined."
After hearing this, everyone clenched their weapons, ready to attack at any time.
Unexpectedly, Sutton suddenly raised his hands. "Don't be nervous. I didn't say I was going to report you to the president."
Uehara Shiroha asked with a frown, "Do you think I'll believe your lies? If we let you go now, and you expose our plan, nothing good will happen to us."
Chapter 348: Sutton Proposes Cooperation
Sutton replied with a smile, "It seems you have misunderstood. I just want to cooperate with you."
Uehara Shiroha turned his head to look at Ryouta and asked him in a low voice, "Can you trust what this man says? If not, we'll kill him now."
Ryouta shook his head and answered, "I can't guarantee it either."
Uehara Shiroha thought about it carefully, then asked Sutton curiously, "It's not impossible to cooperate, but I'm a little curious about what you can gain from this incident."
Sutton replied calmly, "Of course it's the Zanpakutō. This is the most advanced Zanpakutō. Even if Miyamoto is the president, he can't just give this away. If I can obtain the Soul Slayer, I'll be able to walk around Hueco Mundo with ease."
Uehara Shiroha sneered, "It seems that your wishful thinking is wrong. We did encounter the Dawn organization, but they asked us to bring the Soul Slayer back. Do you think we'll hand the Soul Slayer over to you?"
Sutton was stunned for a moment, then answered, "I guess you've been threatened by someone from the Dawn organization. You want to take this Soul Slayer back in exchange for your lives, but if I can save your lives, it's okay for you to give the Soul Slayer to me, right?"
Uehara Shiroha thought about it carefully, then asked, "But why should we believe you?"
Sutton suddenly grinned, "Because you have no choice. You don't really think that after you get the Soul Slayer, the people from the Dawn organization will be kind enough to let you go, do you? Would you choose to let your enemies go back?"
The others looked at each other and felt that what Sutton said made sense. At this time, Chiakura was also quietly reminding Uehara Shiroha, "Why don't we try to cooperate with him? Maybe this guy really has a way. Anyway, we're not afraid of him together. If he dares to do anything, we'll kill him with our own hands."
Uehara Shiroha nodded slowly, then put away his Zanpakutō and said to Sutton, "Before we left, the Dawn organization members fed us a black pill. If we don't get the corresponding antidote within seven days, we'll become the same as those low-level Hollows."
Ryouta complained on the side, "To be honest, I always thought these guys were lying to me. How could there be such a pill?"
Sutton interrupted immediately, "He really wasn't lying to you. The Dawn organization does have this kind of thing. Their organization already has a large number of Hollows, and a toxin can be extracted from the bodies of these low-level Hollows."
"The reason why these Hollows turn people into the same as themselves after attacking them is precisely because of the existence of this toxin. Normally, this toxin will make people weak immediately after taking it. The reason why there is such a long interval is that they have modified it somehow."
After listening to his analysis, Uehara Shiroha felt that it seemed to make sense, so he asked, "You understand it so clearly—do you know what can be used to neutralize this toxin?"
Sutton smiled mysteriously, then beckoned to them, "Just follow me and you'll find out."
Chapter 349: Meeting Quickley in the Cave
Uehara Shiroha looked at Sutton with suspicion, while Sutton said indifferently, "If you want to cooperate, there should be some trust between each other, right? Don't you have even this little bit of trust?"
Chiakura said softly to Uehara Shiroha, "Why don't we just follow him and see. If we work together, he may not be our opponent."
Uehara Shiroha nodded, and then followed Sutton with the others.
Sutton led them through many twists and turns in the courtyard and finally came to the entrance of a cave. Ryouta asked curiously from the side, "This place should be the entrance to the underground of the hall. How do you know this entrance?"
Sutton replied calmly, "Didn't I tell you the answer just now? I've been eyeing the Soul Slayer for more than a day or two. It's just that I haven't had any help around me. This really isn't something one person can handle."
Sutton led them into the cave, and just as Ryouta had described before, there were no guards in this place. This made Uehara Shiroha feel a little uneasy.
The Soul Slayer was the most precious thing of the Sirius organization, but they didn't send many people to watch over it. Instead, they only let Quickley guard it. This showed that the president of the Sirius organization was still quite confident in Quickley, which also demonstrated how powerful Quickley was.
When they walked deeper into the cave, a corner appeared in front of them. Sutton turned around and whispered to everyone, "Be careful now—Quickley is right around this corner."
Sutton walked toward the corner carefully and stuck his head out to observe. Quickley's body wasn't particularly big, not even as big as the previous Black Spirit, but he looked very terrifying.
There wasn't much difference in general appearance between Quickley and other Hollows. His whole body was black, but his face looked very different. His green face and fangs looked very frightening.
There were several low-level Hollows surrounding Quickley, and they were constantly attacking him. Quickley didn't seem to be in a hurry to devour these low-level Hollows. Instead, he was playing with them with a mocking mentality.
Uehara Shiroha asked Sutton curiously, "Why isn't Quickley afraid of the attacks of these low-level Hollows? When high-level Hollows devour low-level ones, they're usually afraid that the low-level Hollows will hurt them."
Sutton replied with a smile, "So I said I have a way to help you detoxify. Quickley has evolved to his current form after devouring countless low-level Hollows. His body has long been immune to the toxins of these Hollows. If we can successfully kill Quickley, we can use his blood to detoxify."
Ryouta looked at Sutton with a questioning expression. "Are the things you're saying reliable? Since Quickley is also a type of Hollow, wouldn't the poisoning worsen if we drank his blood?"
Sutton looked at Ryouta next to him with disdain. "Do you know why you're still a loser? It's because you think too simply."
Then Sutton looked at the people next to him, and it was obvious that they didn't believe what he said. Sutton shook his head helplessly. "It seems that you still don't want to believe me, but it doesn't matter. You can think about it in a different way."
Chapter 350: Quickley's Immune System Toxin
"After killing Quickley, if what I said was all false, I'm no match for you guys, so what do you have to worry about?"
Chiakura said sarcastically, "It's easy for you to say. If we want to verify whether his blood is useful, we have to try it ourselves. By the time we drank the blood and found out it was fake, it would already be too late. You'd have already escaped with the Soul Slayer. Wouldn't we have worked for you for nothing?"
Sutton pulled Ryouta next to him over and then spoke, "That's easy. Just find the weakest one among you and feed them his blood. It's better to experiment on one person than to take risks with a group of people."
Ryouta quickly answered, "Why me? I'm not the weakest here. Even if we want to do an experiment, we should definitely use Chiakura."
Chiakura lowered her head silently, and Sutton replied calmly, "As for who to choose, that's your business. I'm just telling you what to do. You can choose for yourself."
Chiakura frowned and hesitated for a long time. She also knew that she was the weakest in the team. Without the help of other companions, there would be no way she could complete the task of repairing the cracks.
Although the mission hadn't been completed yet, Chiakura had already accepted a certain reality. She said to Uehara Shiroha, "Then let me do the experiment. If something happens to me, it won't have a big impact on everyone. You guys can still deal with him."
If there was no blonde in the team, Uehara Shiroha wasn't sure whether he could beat Sutton. He was in a dilemma for a moment.
He also didn't want to watch Chiakura do such a thing, but what she had just said did make sense. Judging from these people's personalities and past experiences, it would be most appropriate to let Ryouta conduct this experiment.
No matter how bad Ryouta's character was, his own strength wasn't weak.
Seeing that Uehara Shiroha hadn't said anything for a long time, Ryouta spoke up, "Since no one has any objections, then it's settled. After killing Quickley, let Chiakura drink his blood..."
Uehara Shiroha continued to ask Sutton, "Now that we've figured out the route and everything, when are we going to act?"
Sutton touched his chin and then answered, "Try not to delay it too long. The organization brings different amounts of Hollows from storage every day to continue feeding Quickley. The longer it takes, the stronger Quickley will become, and the harder it will be to deal with him."
Ryouta picked up the knife in his hand and walked forward, saying, "Then why are you hesitating? Why don't we just go in and kill this guy now?"
Sutton shook his head with disdain, then spoke, "It seems like you really have no brains. You want to kill Quickley? Do you think you can get out of here safely afterward? Miyamoto is very alert. Even though he only placed one Quickley here, he's always keeping an eye on the situation here."
Uehara Shiroha asked, "You're more familiar with the situation in the organization, so when do you think it's best to take action? Give us a suggestion and we'll listen to you."
