Bleach: Why I, Kurosaki Ichigo, am not the harem king Chapter 120

Ichigo looked at Grimmjow, who had been injured by Ulquiorra in the recent battle, and said to Orihime beside him, “Orihime, heal him!”

Orihime turned to look at Ichigo. “But, Kurosaki-kun, he wants to fight you, and I don’t want you to get hurt in battle!”

Ichigo had a face full of question marks. Since his debut, he had fought dozens of battles, big and small, and it seemed he had never really been seriously injured, had he?

Oh, there was one time, during his intense fight with Unohana Retsu, when they might have unintentionally injured each other because they couldn’t control themselves, but that was an exception…

Seeing Ichigo’s bewildered expression, Orihime finally realized that Ichigo really hadn’t been seriously injured much. Nelliel looked at Orihime with an expression as if she were looking at an idiot.

“Aren’t you Ichigo’s companion? Why are you so lacking in confidence in Ichigo?” Nelliel’s words almost broke Orihime’s composure. Orihime quickly lowered her head, blushing, and began to heal Grimmjow.

While being healed, Grimmjow said to Ichigo, “Kurosaki Ichigo, you probably don’t know the composition of us Arrancars yet!”

This made Ichigo愣. Why was Grimmjow suddenly going to start sharing information with him?

“You probably already know about our three levels of Hollows. However, you absolutely won’t know how we Hollows evolve!”

Grimmjow said, with a nostalgic look, “After we become Hollows, most of us feed on human souls. But a small number of Hollows feel that this isn’t enough. This portion of Hollows begins to feed on their own kind.”

“And when a Hollow devours too many of its own kind, a Gillian is formed.”

“Most Gillians have no intelligence whatsoever. They are muddled and only know how to eat, eat, eat. But a small number of Gillians who retain their intelligence continue to devour other Gillians!”

“As the consumption between Gillians increases, the intermediate-level Menos Grande, Adjuchas, are born. Before I became an Arrancar, I was such an Adjuchas!”

“Unlike Gillians, Adjuchas possess extremely high intelligence and talent. They can freely hunt Gillians. This isn’t for venting anger; it’s simply for survival!”

“A Menos Grande that has evolved into an Adjuchas, if it cannot devour Gillians or other Adjuchas, will slowly degenerate back into a Gillian, eventually losing all consciousness and never being able to awaken again.”

“Therefore, Adjuchas will more actively attack their own kind, not just to continue evolving, but at least to maintain their Adjuchas state!”

At this point, Grimmjow seemed to see the past. At that time, he met his Fraccion in this way, unknowingly eating a part of their masks.

Although his companions had degenerated back into Gillians, Grimmjow, who retained the potential for upward evolution, continued to wander in Hueco Mundo.

Perhaps, if Aizen Sousuke hadn’t appeared, Grimmjow might have evolved into a Vasto Lorde. Of course, it’s also possible that Grimmjow would have degenerated into a Gillian.

But it was because of Aizen that Grimmjow became an Arrancar, and his strength stopped growing within a short period.

This was the reason for Grimmjow’s dissatisfaction with Aizen.

He was originally carrying the hopes of his team to strive towards becoming a Vasto Lorde, but now that dream was shattered!

Although the Thousand-Year Blood War arc mentioned that Grimmjow gained power on par with a Vasto Lorde, it’s hard to say if he truly became a Vasto Lorde.

Listening to Grimmjow’s words, Ichigo expressed his inability to comprehend. How could you expect a high school student to understand something like carrying all hopes and then evolving? How could he possibly understand!

But despite not understanding, Ichigo still showed respect!

“I’m fully recovered, Kurosaki Ichigo. Come on, I can’t wait to fight you!” Grimmjow looked at Ichigo, his fighting spirit soaring.

Ichigo sighed helplessly. He knew very well that if he didn’t fight Grimmjow, Grimmjow wouldn’t let them leave Hueco Mundo so easily.

Moreover, they couldn’t contact Urahara Kisuke now, so they had to figure out a new way to return to the Human World or Soul Society.

“Don’t fight here. Let’s go somewhere else.” Ichigo glanced at Nelliel and Orihime, then turned to Grimmjow.

“Hmph, I understand. Let’s go!” Saying that, Grimmjow flew directly into the distance.

Ichigo followed with Shunpo.

Facing Grimmjow, although Ichigo didn’t intend to defeat him in one go, he should still show some real skill!

Before, with one arm broken, Grimmjow was basically used as a punching bag by Ichigo, and even Rukia could casually step on his head.

However, a fully recovered Grimmjow was now different!

Orihime’s healing was not just superficial!

All of Grimmjow’s hidden injuries were healed by Orihime!

In other words, Orihime actually gave Grimmjow a ticket to becoming a Vasto Lorde!

After all, Orihime’s healing was a more violent rejection!

“Grimmjow, you are a respectable opponent, so I’m going to do this!”

Ichigo held his Zanpakuto with one hand, with no intention of using Shikai. “Bankai! Tensa Zangetsu!”

The powerful spiritual pressure directly forced Grimmjow back three steps!

“How is that possible! Such immense power, can it really belong to a Soul Reaper?” Looking at Ichigo holding the sharp blade, Grimmjow exclaimed in shock!

Ichigo swung the small chain at the end of Tensa Zangetsu and said, “Sorry, I haven’t used this form in a while, so I might need a quick warm-up!”

“What a joke!”

Feeling Ichigo’s spiritual pressure, vast as the ocean, Grimmjow was almost losing confidence!

Such powerful spiritual pressure, such a strong body!

If you said Aizen had arrived, Grimmjow would believe it!

Facing such an Ichigo, Grimmjow didn’t hesitate at all and directly used a technique only Espada-level Hollows could use against Ichigo!

Gran Rey Cero!

Unlike Ulquiorra’s greenish-black Cero, Grimmjow’s Cero was bluish-black!

From the center of his palm, a thick, bluish-black flash of light shot directly at Ichigo’s face!

However, this Cero was still somewhat inferior to Ulquiorra’s Cero!

A technique that was difficult for Ichigo in Shikai form, let alone against Ichigo in Bankai!

Ichigo simply extended his left hand and directly caught the bluish-black Cero!

Like grabbing cotton candy, he directly crumpled the Cero into fragments!

Seeing this scene, Grimmjow, instead of being afraid, burst into laughter!

“Hahahahaha! That’s it! I want to fight you like this!”

Grimmjow directly drew his Zanpakuto, and with his left hand, he fiercely gripped the Zanpakuto, just like a feline predator hunting!

“Slay him, Pantera!”

Blue light directly enveloped Grimmjow’s body!

Grimmjow’s form after Resurrección didn’t change much from before.

He still primarily maintained a human form.

His Zanpakuto disappeared, his body turned into a white panther, his eye shadow extended to his temples, his ears became panther ears, his hair turned into long hair reaching his waist, and his mask moved to his forehead.

He was clad in white tight-fitting armor, with a segmented tail with a black tip growing from his back, his limbs turning black at the ends, growing long manes and sharp claws, and possessing a set of sharp fangs.

He looked incredibly wild!

More like a human transformed into a panther! (For exciting novels, go to Feilu Novel Network!)

(cdfc) Not only that, in this form, Grimmjow’s speed and strength had made a qualitative leap!

As expected of a technique on the same level as Zanpakuto release!

Grimmjow after Resurrección was clearly several times stronger than before!

Grimmjow stretched his hands and looked at Ichigo, saying, “You’ve waited long enough! For me, this state is much more familiar!”

Saying that, Grimmjow’s fangs glinted, and he pounced at Ichigo like a leopard!

“Grimmjow, now you can be considered my opponent!” Ichigo, who had been disinterested, was like a child seeing a new toy!

He became excited!

Of course, he wasn’t the only one watching this battle!

With Grimmjow’s Resurrección, his and Bankai Ichigo’s spiritual pressure directly spread throughout Las Noches!

“Such terrifying spiritual pressure! Are these two spiritual pressures really from two Espada fighting?” As Harribel’s Fraccion.

A blonde girl exclaimed in shock.

Harribel also walked onto the balcony, watching the battle between Ichigo and Grimmjow.

“What’s wrong? What’s wrong? Can’t fight back after being beaten by me, Kurosaki Ichigo!” Grimmjow continuously swung his claws, trying to scratch Ichigo.

But Ichigo showed no intention of retaliating, just standing there and continuously dodging.

Although he perfectly dodged Grimmjow’s attacks every time, the scene still looked incredibly perilous.

“Ichigo! Go for it!” Nelliel stood on the high platform, constantly cheering for Ichigo.

Orihime, however, remained silent.

To be honest, even if you asked ten thousand people, not a single one would understand what was going on in Orihime’s mind at that moment.

What did she mean by being scared of such an Ichigo?

Didn’t he come to Hueco Mundo to save her?

Did Ichigo want to come here himself?

But Orihime remained silent.

This made even Nelliel, who was beside her, unable to stand it.

“Woman, what are you doing? Why aren’t you cheering for Ichigo!”

“He’s fighting right now, isn’t it all to save you? If even you don’t cheer for him, then everything he’s doing will be meaningless, won’t it?”

“Speak up!”

(This part is purely from the original plot, the kind of original plot that makes your blood pressure soar. Let’s just say there are many major plot holes, but this level of absurdity is unique!)

Nelliel’s words awakened Orihime. Seeing Ichigo fighting Grimmjow, Orihime finally understood why Ichigo’s attitude towards her had always been lukewarm.

“Go for it! Kurosaki-kun, even if you can’t win, no matter what, please don’t get hurt!” (These are also the original words. I can’t understand it, can’t comprehend it, whatever. Anyway, she doesn’t have many more scenes later.)

However, Orihime and Nelliel’s shouts did not affect Ichigo’s fighting spirit. He was now slowly getting hyped up!

Because he hadn’t found Orihime before, Ichigo had actually been suppressing his fighting desire!

Why was he valued by Unohana Retsu?

Wasn’t it because Unohana Retsu felt a similar aura from Ichigo!

Tensa Zangetsu began to be wildly swung by Ichigo. Even Grimmjow’s steel-like claws would feel pain when they touched Tensa Zangetsu!

Gradually, Ichigo unconsciously used a bit more strength, fiercely suppressing Grimmjow, returning all the previous provocations!

“Grimmjow! What’s wrong? Weren’t you just saying I couldn’t fight back? Who can’t fight back now?”

As Ichigo spoke, the speed of Tensa Zangetsu in his hand increased. Grimmjow couldn’t keep up for a moment and was directly cut open at the waist by Tensa Zangetsu!

If Grimmjow’s reaction speed hadn’t been fast enough, that single strike would have directly cut him in half!

Grimmjow used Sonido to create distance from Ichigo, fiercely sealing the wound on his waist with his spiritual pressure, and aimed his elbow at Ichigo.

Five emerald-green projectiles shot towards Ichigo!

But Ichigo just stood there, without even dodging, and directly reached out, fiercely grabbing forward, catching all five projectiles with his bare hands!

And with a forceful single grip, he crushed them into fragments and threw them on the ground.

Seeing this scene, Grimmjow couldn’t help but admire, “What a powerful spiritual body! The power of that move just now was not small!”

Saying that, Grimmjow fired a single projectile, which directly shattered the nearby large red pillar into pieces!

“That was just the power of one projectile, and you caught five at once. You’re truly an extraordinary opponent!”

“Likewise, Grimmjow! You’re the first one who can fight me in Bankai for this long!” Ichigo also said.

This was not false. Byakuya, who had mental issues, could only spar with Bankai Ichigo, let alone this enhanced version of Ichigo!

Grimmjow was indeed a powerful Arrancar approaching the Vasto Lorde level!

“Kurosaki Ichigo!”

Grimmjow roared, directly clenching his claws into a drill-like shape and thrusting them at Ichigo!

However, this attack was caught by Ichigo with a single hand!

“How is that possible!” Grimmjow looked at all of this in disbelief.
