Bleach: Watch Closely, This Is How You Use a Zanpakutō novel Chapter 243

Chapter 243 - 243: The Soul King’s Right Arm

Masatsuki Aozaki paid no attention to Mayuri Kurotsuchi.

His gaze remained locked on Jūshirō Ukitake, where a dark, singular eye was gradually taking shape.

"I can't let you keep causing trouble! I swore to that old man that I'd cure him."

"If I mess this up and he dies, the old man will probably throw a tantrum, cry, and threaten to hang himself—and I really don't want to deal with that."

Masatsuki tightened his grip on the Soul King's right arm. The solid texture beneath his fingers confirmed that he had seized the right thing.

"Got you! Now get out of there!" _{fr\(e)ew(e)b.(n)o (v)(e)l.com}

A smirk tugged at the corner of his lips as his arm suddenly tensed, exerting force.

The violent clash of Reiatsu sent shockwaves through the air, creating a storm-like turbulence as if an explosion could erupt at any second.

Ordinarily, Mayuri would be beside himself at the sight of such destruction, but right now, he didn't care in the slightest.

His eyes remained unblinking, fixed on Masatsuki's arm.

Under his gaze, Masatsuki's hand slowly retracted, muscles tensing as he forcibly tore something from Ukitake's body.

He had succeeded.

The grotesque black mass had been yanked out.

Mayuri stared at the ink-like, arm-shaped entity, his curiosity surging uncontrollably.

Yet the sheer pressure of Masatsuki's overwhelming Reiatsu sent a shudder through him, immediately quelling any impulse to act rashly.

Instead, he simply watched, swallowing hard as his throat bobbed involuntarily.

Masatsuki had now completely removed the Soul King's right arm.

Only now did Mayuri get a clear look at the creature in its entirety.

It was beyond ugly—indescribably so—and the suffocating aura it emitted was enough to send chills down the spine.

Even standing in its presence felt like an unbearable weight pressing down.

Its body was pure black, an ink-like darkness that constantly twisted and writhed, resembling an arm yet shifting unnaturally.

In the center of its palm, a massive eye slowly peeled open, staring unblinkingly at the two before it.

More precisely, it was staring at Masatsuki.

Even with just a glance, Mayuri felt a crushing pressure seize him, freezing his consciousness for an instant.

What a terrifying thing...

An endless, suffocatingly thick Reiatsu poured out, dark as ink, spreading like an uncontrollable tide.

It surged from the grotesque arm, steadily creeping toward Masatsuki's body.

Was it... trying to claim a new host?

Mayuri's pupils shrank in realization.

"Masatsuki Aozaki, be careful! It's trying to parasitize you!"

He absolutely could not allow both of the Captain-Commander's disciples to die in his laboratory. If they did, both he and his research would be doomed.

However, before he could say more—

His mouth fell open in shock, his entire body going rigid.

Just as the mass of black Reiatsu was about to latch onto Masatsuki—

A radiant, emerald-green shield, as clear as glass, suddenly materialized in front of him.

It intercepted the incoming darkness with unwavering force.
