"Harribel?!" Barragan turned his head, his expression moved. He clearly hadn't expected that he would be stabbed in the back by a teammate. And this person was usually very upright, Harribel.
However, his reaction speed was also very fast. After being hit, he immediately raised the giant axe in his hand and swung it horizontally towards Harribel. Harribel also raised her large sword to block in time.
Clang.
Metal clashed, sparks flew everywhere.
"Why?" Barragan glared angrily, the veins on his forehead bulging.
Swish.
But at this time, another streak of light from a blade suddenly slashed towards his neck. Barragan quickly turned his body to the side, but that streak of light was like it had eyes, going upwards.
Stab.
Blood splattered, and a long bloody mark was cut open on Barragan's neck. The skin and flesh opened, revealing the white bones inside.
"Damn, you damn bastard!" Barragan covered his neck and gasped for breath, his entire face becoming twisted. "Harribel, you traitor!"
"She hasn't betrayed anyone." Shaking the blood off her blade, Unohana Retsu calmly said, "Harribel has been one of us from the start, you just didn't know it."
"One of you?" Barragan was stunned for a moment, and said in disbelief, "Are you saying that you Soul Society have always known about Aizen's actions?"
"This is troubling." Unohana Retsu sighed, and her figure suddenly disappeared from the spot.
Barragan instinctively felt something was wrong, and he lifted the giant axe in his hand and slashed towards the left side. But just like before, the curved blade in Unohana Retsu's hand seemed to have predicted his attack trajectory, and the blade pierced his heart before his attack could land.
Blank.
Barragan looked up dumbly, holding the giant axe in his hand, his expression blank.
"I never said that we were on the side of the Soul Society." Unohana Retsu's tone was still calm, with no joy or sorrow on her face. "What a pity, it seems you won't have a chance to use your Resurrección."
Saying she was sorry, Unohana Retsu's movements were quick and efficient. With a flip of her wrist, the blade energy that erupted instantly shredded Barragan's heart, and blood flowed out.
Thump.
This former king of Hueco Mundo fell to the ground in such a frustrating way, his consciousness sinking into eternal darkness. Even for a being like him, it was impossible to continue living with such severe damage to his heart.
"Should we interfere with the fights over there?" Harribel turned her gaze to the others fighting in the distance and asked.
"No need, let them fight slowly." Returning her blade to its sheath, Unohana Retsu lifted her foot and walked towards where Head Captain Yamamoto and Ichimaru Gin were. "We have more important things to do."
Skirt-Flipping Maniac: Uh, what is Ms. Hana going to do? Save people?
Curly-haired Guy: Hey, there's no need to save these two at all. They're not on our side, so shouldn't we just let them die on their own? It's a waste to spend time and spirit power on them!
Soul Society's Villain: Nothing is a waste. Their lives can still play a role in our social development. Besides, I'm a medical worker, how can I just watch people die?
Curly-haired Guy: Don't forget that you, as a medical worker, just killed someone, hey! Don't you think it's contradictory to say that?
Doujin Artist: It's contradictory because you're ignorant. Barragan had to die because the way he thought wouldn't contribute to the world we want to build in the future! Head Captain Yamamoto and Ichimaru Gin are different, they can still be changed!
Machete Girl: Yeah, we need to distinguish between conflicts with enemies and internal conflicts. Gin should read more books.
Curly-haired Guy: Hmph, what if those two don't want to be changed?
Soul Society's Villain: They will. They both want the Soul Society to change. They just haven't found the right way, and they'll definitely agree with the path Aizen found.
Lin Fengjiao: Do the people make the decisions? But it's really hard for the people to develop a sense of ownership.
Doujin Artist: Of course it's hard. After thousands of years of feudal rule and hundreds of years of capitalist rule, it's impossible to completely change that way of thinking in just a few days.
Amegakure Village's Angel: That's why we need a leader to guide and lead, until this model of ownership is deeply rooted in people's hearts, and then it's possible to perfectly continue this system.
Scarlet Lotus Fairy: It takes time and a process, and it will be extremely long.
Skirt-Flipping Maniac: Luckily, the people in our group have plenty of time! If ten years isn't enough, then a hundred years, if a hundred years isn't enough, then a thousand years! I don't believe we won't see the day of total victory!
Foul-Mouthed Mask Guy: Yes, that's right! The damn capitalist tycoons and their lackeys, we must completely destroy them! And cleanly and thoroughly sweep them into the trash! Yes, I will personally stuff Tony Stark's ass into the trash! I promise!
Doujin Artist: ?
Scarlet Lotus Fairy: Something's not right with that last part, how did it become specific to an individual? Clusters and individuals are different concepts, focusing on individuals becomes physical elimination, is that not what we should do?
Foul-Mouthed Mask Guy: Believe me, that's what we should do! Guys, you don't know how disgusting Tony is! Oh, even thinking about his face makes me feel sick! Yes, I've already thrown up!
Curly-haired Guy: Were you, beaten?
Machete Girl: Haha, "beaten" is one way to put it
Doujin Artist: Do you need a suppository? I can buy you some.
Foul-Mouthed Mask Guy: Fuck, do you guys look down on me? Would I be beaten? Would someone like me, a spirited revolutionary, be beaten by that disgusting capitalist? If anything, I should be the one beating him!
Amegakure Village's Angel: Then what's with this sudden hatred of yours?
Foul-Mouthed Mask Guy: Because I've woken up, I understand! If capitalists like him aren't taken down, the people will never have a good life! They must be eliminated, they must be completely eliminated! We must unite and defeat the American Empire!
Skirt-Flipping Maniac: It's pretty magical that a character created by an American author wants to defeat the American Empire, but do you guys really not have any personal grudges?
Foul-Mouthed Mask Guy: No, of course not! This is collective hatred, it's the hatred of the people! I want to solemnly declare that I'm not jealous because I saw that he had a girlfriend with huge boobs last night, this isn't a personal grudge!
Doujin Artist: Mr. Deadpool. You really are hopeless, go rest in peace.
