The possibility of him being on their side is very small, so the most likely candidates are these two individuals, one in black and one in white, who call themselves "Wuchang" (meaning "impermanent").
That guy actively spread hostility.
"The White Ghost Messenger has come to collect souls."
A fleeting, cold light flashed by, and with a flick of the white banner, a phantom image appeared, which was then forcibly drawn into the banner.
Apart from Aizen, everyone else retreated in alarm.
What's going on?
Nurarihyon frowned and spoke in a low voice.
"This guy didn't have a soul after he died."
What on earth is going on? Something's not right!
Just as he was wondering, Oni Yancheng suddenly realized something and exclaimed in astonishment, "After being guided and exorcised by the Grim Reaper, one's spirit body will be reshaped in the Soul Society and reborn. After being purified by us Grim Reapers, one's soul will turn into spirit particles and return to the Soul Society."
However, there is one exception: the most heinous villain, Hollow, is taken away by Hell after being killed.
The Gates of Hell! Even the Ghost City knew very little about such an ominous existence.
However, this presents a paradox.
Whether it's a ghost or a death god, they are already spirits and souls, belonging to the realm of "death".
The existence of categories.
Logically, they should completely disappear into the world after they die, but in reality, as spirits, they may still fall into hell or be reincarnated in the six realms of reincarnation.
Oni Yancheng had never seen reincarnation or anything like that, but he had personally witnessed the existence of the Gates of Hell, having frequently participated in extermination battles as a member of a combat squad.
It's terrifying, extremely ominous! "You, you are people of hell!"
The imaginative Oni Kenpachi exclaimed in surprise.
Aizen: ""
I love guys like you who can fill in the blanks with their own imagination.
Sure enough, with Gui Yancheng as his straight man, the ghost swindler smiled and said, "Not so stupid. It's not just the death of spirits; ordinary monsters rarely have their souls lingering in the human world after they die."
But their souls did not dissipate; rather, they were taken away by the rules of hell.
However, this lion monster possesses dark powers, so just in case, my brother and I went to deal with it ourselves.
"Too much nonsense."
Ghost White's slightly displeased voice interrupted Ghost Black.
Ignoring the latter's aggrieved look, Gui Shi Bai suddenly looked up at the demon in the sky, his gaze becoming much colder: "Now it seems that this was all caused by you, the outsider."
But regardless
"What is your purpose? We'll take you back with us today."
"Heh, that bastard Ryoma was right to say to wait a little longer; things are much clearer now."
Okada Izo emerged from the shadows, still with an arrogant expression.
"Those two demons, Ghost Messenger and Black and White Impermanence, are truly shameless."
Hattori Hanzo, carrying two swords on his back, spoke indifferently.
The unexpected situation and conversation disrupted Nura Rihan's thoughts once again, forcing him to reconsider.
These heroic spirits have unknown origins and purposes, but are suspected to be eliminating the source of the negative impact.
The demon originates from the Western Bible, and everything it does appears to be to deal with the two demon messengers, but its ultimate purpose remains unclear.
The two Shinigami come from Soul Society and their goal is to obtain the Beast King; their motivation is the same as that of the Nura Clan.
The Black and White Impermanence, also known as the Ghost Messenger, are tasked with collecting souls, but their targets include demons and possibly others. However, their identities are questioned by heroic spirits! "Are you provoking us?"
The black-clad demon narrowed his eyes, his gaze turning dangerous. "Hattori Hanzo, those of you who were qualified to become Heroic Spirits become Heroic Spirits upon death. Apart from Abe no Seimei, only a handful of you have entered the Underworld. Today, you've delivered yourselves to my doorstep, so you might as well come back with me!"
"Tsk tsk tsk."
Aizen shook his head regretfully, and said with a playful tone, "Avoiding the topic is such a boring answer."
Japanese mythology does not contain figures like Yama or the Black and White Impermanence; these are unique to the mythology of a country on the other side of the sea.
Even if the myths were passed down, it doesn't mean that the Black and White Impermanence from that side also rule our hell. But you beings just happened to appear, so you are merely substitutes with similar abilities!
"A false god who possesses similar abilities, gained the faith of this nation, and thus transformed into one."
"Those who call themselves gods are actually just special products of demonic spiritual power undergoing another mutation. Perhaps in a few thousand or tens of thousands of years, you might be able to transform into gods, but that is absolutely forbidden!"
"It is not impossible for a demon god to aspire to godhood, but attempting to steal the divine position from another mythology has extremely serious consequences."
The singularity that has drawn Valhalla's attention is actually you.
Whoosh! The words had barely left his mouth when the sound of the crescent-shaped scythe cutting through the air came crashing down.
The update is a little late, there's one more chapter coming soon.
Chapter 273 The Truman Show 36/39
Clang! The sharp blade blocked the attack from the Black Reaper. Aizen said calmly, "Are you angry because you're ashamed? To descend to earth in the name of a god, only to have your noble status exposed as false, is undoubtedly a disgrace."
"opinionated!"
With a hostile glint in his eyes, the black-clad ghost intensified its power, forcefully repelling Aizen with a bang. It retorted, "We are the messengers of death, the ghosts who aid the Grim Reapers. You have tarnished our pride, which is why I attacked!"
With each side sticking to their own version of events, Nura Rihan and Oni Ichijo, as bystanders, were unable to make a judgment for the time being.
The latter, in particular, was so dizzy that she could barely think straight.
"Heh, is that so? If it really is Black Impermanence, with my current strength, I'm no match for it."
"Fake!"
The last three words ignited Gui Shi Hei's fury, and he swung his scythe even faster, accompanied by an ominous blood-red light as he thrust it back and forth.
The fight between the two forced the others to temporarily keep their distance.
Maintaining his strength to contend with the Black Reaper, Aizen remained calm and composed.
The Black and White Demon Messengers are not truly present in this world, but Aizen didn't specifically purchase them from the system's sub-shop either. Wasting his Actor Points on gambling would have been less worthwhile than using them to strengthen a few Heroic Spirits.
Don't forget, in this world, he receives a system reward every time he encounters and recognizes a new world.
Originally, I saw Nura Rihan and Kurotabo through Okada Izo's eyes, but in the end, I didn't see them with my own eyes. Apart from unlocking the system transformation, I didn't receive any rewards.
Not long after arriving in the mortal world, Aizen received this long-awaited reward.
It was this reward that led him to spend 25,000 Movie Star Points to purchase characters to complete the entire plan.
Strictly speaking, the characters acquired through these seven purchases are all supporting roles.
Even without them, Aizen could orchestrate the entire scheme, but against intelligent people, the more perfect and complex the calculation, the better to deceive them.
To give an example, the world's richest man might tease a beggar out of boredom or a perverse sense of humor, but two billionaires would never conspire to painstakingly create countless logically coherent falsehoods to deceive a poor person.
Until the appearance of the Black and White Ghost, all of that was merely a means to make people logically and reasonably fall into a localized version of "The Truman Show."
Okay, so Aizen is just... someone who's got nothing better to do.
Although he put a lot of effort into making these plans for various purposes, the plans themselves didn't actually require much thought.
However, in reality, apart from Kenpachi Oni, who plays Rihan Nara, and Kurotabo who is possessed by an oni, everyone else is an actor.
However, neither the Black Ghost nor the White Ghost are living, breathing people.
Whether it's Heroic Spirits or characters produced by subsystems like Joe Higashi, they are all different.
They are more like mechanical puppets, acting according to the programs set by Aizen, mimicking their original personalities, and Aizen can change their orders and commands at any time without a sound.
On the surface, they seem very useful, much more so than treacherous individuals like Cao Yanbing and the Beast King. However, Aizen doesn't like them! This isn't just because they lack growth potential; more importantly, he doesn't intend to use them as subordinates, except as tools.
The puppet is 100% loyal, like a robot's subordinate; if he really needs it, he will do anything.
In short, in this already somewhat boring and lonely world, if even the opponents and subordinates he faced every day were soulless and mindless machines, it would simply deprive him of one of his few sources of enjoyment.
If a subordinate is determined to betray him, he would rather kill him than forcibly turn him into his puppet.
Is it pride, loneliness, or both? Who knows?
Therefore, he felt that such an award should be reserved for one of the puppeteers.
Aside from personal opinions, the rewards given to Gui Shi Hei and Gui Shi Bai this time have other flaws. Their lack of growth potential is relatively minor; the real problem is that the energy within them is the kind that cannot be produced on their own once it runs out...
This means that Aizen needs to pre-charge them.
The advantage is that each person can have three backup "batteries".
This also means that Aizen will receive the "five 55 puppets" as a reward this time.
It would take quite a while for them to fully charge, and he himself would also need to provide them with a certain amount of spiritual energy for a period of time.
"If your brother gets bogged down, what are you going to do when you're all alone?"
Okada Izo, carrying a katana on his shoulder, chuckled maliciously.
"Taking you all down is enough."
With a serious expression, the ghost messenger Bai Changban raised his banner, and streams of energy emerged along with the appearance of the black imp.
Soon after, the white banner released countless tiny demons.
"human wave tactics"
Dongzhang raised an eyebrow.
"The souls who call themselves the Grim Reaper, it is because of your existence that so many people are given a second life and are spared from falling into hell."
In truth, your true destiny as spirits is also hell, and today I'm taking your souls!
At Gui Shi Bai's command, a dense swarm of little demons engulfed Dong Zhang and his companions.
Now, no one has any chance of just watching and slacking off anymore.
However, according to Aizen's prior arrangements, Hattori Hanzo's treatment was different from others. As someone whose prestige was higher than Sakamoto Ryoma and Okada Izo, Oni Hanzo could not possibly show any bad behavior.
"This is troublesome, the Fear of Hundred Fires' Chaos is imminent!"
Flames clung to the densely packed weapon surfaces, and the combined effect of these two properties shattered one imp after another.
The others were equally matched.
"Super Special Move: Death Tornado!"
"A series of powerful strikes!"
"Hokushin Ittō-ryū Swift Lightning!"
"Gale Shuriken, die."
During the battle, Rihan Nura gradually came to terms with everything.
These two ghostly messengers had included everyone present in their target list for soul-snatching.
The Shinigami, or Soul Society, in a sense, suppress Hell and rob Japanese Hell of its business, thus making them a target.
Heroic spirits, as the souls of humans after death, neither fall into hell nor are they exorcised by the Grim Reaper. Instead, they become the prey that both heroic spirits and demons want to take away.
The demon, as the instigator, will naturally not be spared, but is currently staying away from the battlefield to protect itself.
These are all natural reasons for hostility.
But what Nura Rihan couldn't understand was why the other party would still hunt him, a living yokai.
Note: According to them, after a monster dies, apart from those that become heroic spirits, the rest generally go to hell.
Under these circumstances, I have no reason to be implicated.
Before Nura Rihan could resolve this mystery, "reinforcements" arrived.
Arrived.
"Hado #73: Twin Lotus Azure Flame Fall!"
"Oh dear, it seems Mr. Rihan is also in some trouble."
Chapter 274 Unpredictable Death 37/39
The dense cluster of little devils was instantly cleared out, creating a row of empty spaces.
