Kurosaki Ichigo, after all, was the biggest bug in the entire Three Realms.
A Reishi Wall, at most, would take him a day.
With that, the matter was settled.
At suppertime, everyone enjoyed a traditional Shiba family dinner.
Meanwhile, Kurosaki Ichigo, the one Kyōraku Callum had high hopes for, was still struggling to master the technique.
After downing a flask of Rukongai sake, Kyōraku Callum's eyebrows twitched slightly, sensing something amiss.
"Could it be… he's done it?"
As if on cue, a powerful surge of spiritual pressure erupted, shaking the Shiba residence.
"Lady Kūkaku! The barrier's about to collapse!" Koganehiko and Shiroganehiko shouted, their faces contorted in alarm.
The entire house trembled under the force of the spiritual pressure, as if an earthquake was underway.
"What's going on?"
"That spiritual pressure…"
Shiba Kūkaku leaped to her feet, sensing the direction from which the spiritual pressure originated.
"That kid…"
BOOM!
Kyōraku Callum, his expression unchanged, released his own spiritual pressure, instantly suppressing Kurosaki Ichigo's surge, which had originated from the underground training grounds dozens of meters away.
The spiritual pressure subsided, and everything returned to normal.
Shiba Kūkaku looked at Kyōraku Callum in surprise. "What was that all about, Kyōraku Callum?"
Kyōraku Callum finished his sake, explaining, "If I'm not mistaken, that kid has learned how to construct a Reishi wall. However, he can't perfectly control his spiritual pressure, resulting in that surge."
As he finished speaking, Kurosaki Ichigo appeared outside the main hall. While he looked excited, his unsteady steps betrayed his exhaustion.
Kyōraku Callum's spiritual pressure had once again stirred up memories of their past encounter, only this time, it was even more overwhelming. This inevitably made Kurosaki Ichigo's gaze toward Kyōraku Callum exceedingly complex.
Even now, he still didn't understand the motives of this sake-obsessed Shinigami.
"I… I completed the Reishi Wall training!" Kurosaki Ichigo announced, deliberately avoiding Kyōraku Callum's gaze, and sat down at the table.
"Congratulations," Shiba Kūkaku said, her expression largely unchanged. "Then after dinner, you'll prepare to depart!"
After dinner.
The group gathered near the launchpad, preparing for the Kakaku Taihō cannon's invasion.
However, before they departed, Kurosaki Ichigo suddenly realized something.
He turned to the black cat perched on Kyōraku Callum's shoulder. "What about you, Yoruichi-san?" he asked.
The black cat grinned. "I'll enter the Seireitei through a different route. Once you're inside, you're bound to cause a ruckus. I'll find you then."
Kurosaki Ichigo asked curiously, "There's another way to enter the Seireitei?"
The black cat nodded. "Find a Shinigami to bring you in."
Kurosaki Ichigo and the others exchanged glances, realizing that this method was not an option for them.
Thump!
A dull thud echoed from atop the cannon.
"Alright, stop wasting time," Shiba Kūkaku said, her fist slamming against the Kakaku Taihō cannon. "It's almost dawn!"
Swirling patterns gradually appeared on the cannon's surface.
Kurosaki Ichigo, Ishida Uryū, Inoue Orihime, and Yasutora Sado placed their hands on the Reishi Cores. After entering the Kakaku Taihō cannon, they channeled their spiritual pressure, creating a massive Reishi wall that enveloped them. Their figures were now completely obscured.
"Koganehiko, Shiroganehiko, engage the Second Style Kakaku Taihō Launch!"
Shiba Kūkaku's expression turned serious as she addressed Koganehiko and Shiroganehiko.
The two retainers flexed their muscles, veins bulging, as they pulled on the ropes before them. Countless Kidō runes spread along the ropes, reaching the Kakaku Taihō cannon.
"O distant realm, coppery desire seeks control at thirty-six degrees! Seventy-two pairs of illusions, thirteen pairs of horns, the ape's right hand grasps the stars! Embrace twenty-five suns, the cradle of sand bleeds!"
Shiba Kūkaku drew a sword and plunged it into the ground, channeling her spiritual pressure, causing Kidō light to bloom. As she removed the bandages wrapped around her hair, encircling her pale arms, flames ignited!
Bang!
As she pressed her hand to the ground, the flames traveled along the bandages to the Kakaku Taihō cannon.
"Kakaku Shahō Niban!"
BOOM!
With a sound like thunder, the Kakaku Taihō cannon roared to life. The projectile formed by the transparent Reishi wall soared into the sky!
Watching the projectile disappear into the horizon, Kyōraku Callum's lips curled upwards, silently thinking, "The Seireitei is about to get very interesting."
Shiba Kūkaku, her black hair cascading down, the bandages now wrapped around her arm, turned to Kyōraku Callum. "Do you really think we shouldn't have told them the incantation?"
Kyōraku Callum smiled. "No need. They just need to disrupt the Seireitei. The incantation they know is enough to get them there."
Shiba Kūkaku nodded, walking over to Kyōraku Callum and wrapping her arms around his.
"So, what now?" she asked.
Kyōraku Callum sighed. "It's time to return to the Seireitei. Are you coming back with me?"
Shiba Kūkaku considered the question for a moment, then shook her head. "I think I'll pass. That useless brother of mine will be completely ruined if I don't give him some training. I'll use this time to put him through hell!"
Kyōraku Callum naturally didn't object to Shiba Kūkaku's decision.
The Seireitei was about to descend into chaos. Staying in the Rukongai was likely the better choice.
Holding the black cat in his arms, Kyōraku Callum left the western Rukongai.
Activating Shunpo, he compressed what would have been a journey of several hours into mere minutes.
As Kyōraku Callum officially arrived in the Seireitei, the alarm bells began to ring out, echoing across the sky.
"Emergency alert! Intruders have been detected within the Seireitei!"
"Repeat, emergency alert!"
