The next day after school, the two of them appeared near Motokawa Yosuke's house again, seemingly by unspoken agreement.
"What a coincidence."
"This goes beyond mere skill; are you stalking me?"
"Idiot, don't make that kind of joke, it's not funny at all."
Chu Yang and Kurosaki Ichigo arrived at the door of a house amidst their bickering. The house number read "Honkawa Family," clearly indicating that they were there to check whether Honkawa Yosuke's family had received the compensation.
"Ring the doorbell, why are you staring at me? Don't you have hands?"
"You did the work, shouldn't you be the one to press the button?"
"Then why did you follow me? Are you a pervert?"
"Did you get a certificate for being a sharp-tongued? Your mouth is really annoying!"
"Thank you for the compliment!"
Kurosaki Ichigo's temples were bulging with veins.
After taking a few deep breaths, he decided not to argue with Chu Yang and reached out to press the doorbell.
Honkawa's wife came out of the house with a wary expression.
Upon seeing that it was two students, his expression immediately relaxed considerably.
Kurosaki Ichigo mentally prepared his words and then explained his purpose. He lied and said that he was a student who had been sponsored by Motokawa Yosuke in the past and had come to visit him today.
Then the two started chatting, exchanging pleasantries for a while. It was only from the conversation that Chu Yang learned that Dongze had sent over the compensation money last night.
The amount of compensation was several times higher than the court's ruling, which showed that Dongze was afraid that Chu Yang would find an excuse to retaliate against him afterward.
A moment later, the two returned to the road near the school, ready to tell Yosuke Motokawa the news.
To their surprise, Motokawa Yosuke wasn't there. Chu Yang and Kurosaki Ichigo waited for a while, but didn't see the guy until it got dark.
"Perhaps he knew about this before we did, and has already ascended to heaven and become a Buddha?"
Kurosaki Ichigo stretched and yawned, his stomach growling with hunger. Unable to bear it any longer, he decided to go home.
Looking at the empty road, Chu Yang frowned. He also felt that Kurosaki Ichigo's words made sense, but he had a strong intuition that Motokawa Yosuke had not left.
Recalling that the other person had been in a dazed state, I realized that they had been in a daze.
It even showed signs of attacking people, which made Chu Yang increasingly feel that something must have happened.
Construction company!
A flash of inspiration struck Chu Yang.
That's probably where Yosuke Motokawa's obsession lies. If he still doesn't know that Higashizawa has already given the compensation money to his family, he will definitely go after Higashizawa.
Thinking of this, Chu Yang immediately rushed towards the location of the construction company.
He didn't care whether Dongze would die or not.
He was just worried that once Motokawa Yosuke killed someone, he might never be able to go back to his original self and would completely lose his reason and emotions.
Chu Yang ran off abruptly, and by the time Kurosaki Ichigo reacted, he was already far away. Seeing how hurried he was, Kurosaki Ichigo instinctively felt that something bad had happened.
"Where are you going? Wait for me!" Kurosaki Ichigo spun his bag around and slung it over his shoulder, then dashed off in a flash. But no matter how fast he chased, he kept getting further and further away from Chu Yang.
"What the hell?!" Kurosaki Ichigo exclaimed in shock. From childhood to adulthood, he had not only excelled academically but also dominated his peers in sports, never losing a game. Today was the first time he had ever suffered a defeat.
After chasing for a while longer, Chu Yang's figure completely disappeared from Kurosaki Ichigo's sight. He had to stop, panting heavily and drenched in sweat. "How can he be so fast? Is he even human? He's a monster!"
"I remember this direction is the park from yesterday... no, it's that construction company!" Kurosaki Ichigo was suddenly startled. He quickly realized the key to the problem, so he no longer cared about resting and gritted his teeth to rush forward.
"Uncle Yosuke, please don't do anything foolish!"
To get to the construction company faster, Chu Yang simply took a straight path, passing through dark alleys and narrow old-fashioned residential areas. There were few people here, and the streetlights were old, so even if he was scaling rooftops, he wouldn't attract the attention of passersby.
I got a taste of the daily life of Naruto Chu Yang.
But what Chu Yang didn't know was...
Kurosaki Ichigo, gritting his teeth, chased after him.
I just happened to see him fly onto the roof and disappear.
"What is this guy doing? A ninja? Holy crap..." Kurosaki Ichigo was stunned and subconsciously swore a few times.
When Chu Yang jumped off the roof, he had already arrived in front of the construction company, with only a road separating them.
It was very quiet all around. Apart from the rustling of the cold wind, not even a cat's meow could be heard. Even at night, the silence was unusual and eerie.
Observation Haki can sense the presence of living beings, but Chu Yang is not yet capable of sensing pure souls.
As for whether Roger could reach the level of "listening to the voice of all things," Chu Yang didn't know, because his Observation Haki hadn't reached that level yet.
Chu Yang walked along the quiet road toward the construction company, his intuition telling him that Motokawa Yosuke was there.
But it seems the worst has already happened...
The moment Chu Yang approached the construction company, all the windows of the building shattered at the same time, and shards of glass rained down on Chu Yang's head.
Glass shards landed on Chu Yang, making a clanging sound, but he had already wrapped his entire body in Armament Haki and was not injured.
As the glass shattered, Chu Yang clearly heard the monster's roar, which made his heart sink.
Chu Yang stomped heavily on the ground and jumped directly to the second floor of the construction company. He didn't see Motokawa Yosuke, but only a monster with a hole in its chest and wearing a mask, lifting Dongze high.
Yosuke Motokawa became Kyon.
"Help...help me..." Dongze had no idea what was happening and just kept shouting for help. His voice was very soft, so he must have been seriously injured.
"Shut up!" Chu Yang cursed angrily, charging straight at the now-illusory Motokawa Yosuke and shoving him away with brute force.
Dongze fell from the sky and crashed heavily to the ground, his mouth full of blood.
Chu Yang glanced down at him, then walked away indifferently. This guy deserved to die, but he shouldn't die at the hands of Honkawa Yosuke.
The soul entity was an enemy Chu Yang had never encountered before. He had no idea how much substantial damage his domineering aura could inflict on the soul entity. He wasn't worried about not being able to break through its defenses, but rather that a single punch might kill Motokawa Yosuke.
Chu Yang's fist is not a Zanpakuto. It doesn't have the Zanpakuto's ability to purify Hollows and send them to heaven. If a Hollow is killed by him, then it is truly dead.
Therefore, Chu Yang could only try his best to use physical techniques to restrain Motokawa Yosuke and wait for the Grim Reaper to react.
As soon as a Hollow appears in the mortal world, the Soul Society will know about it immediately, so there's no need to worry about Shinigami not showing up.
unless……
A more powerful void appeared nearby at the same time.
Before death arrives, Chu Yang must prevent it from running amok and harming innocent people. He can only use his Observation Haki to observe the movement of the living people around him while leading Motokawa Yosuke to a sparsely populated area.
Fishman Karate has many grappling and binding techniques, which are just right for dealing with the current situation.
When he became a phantom, Yosuke Motokawa was enormous, and any attack he made could cause terrifying, widespread destruction, which was truly frightening.
If Yosuke Motokawa, who has just become a Hollow, is this powerful, it's hard to imagine how powerful the Hollows above him must be.
Meanwhile, Ichigo Kurosaki also arrived near the construction company.
Whether it was from the intense exercise or from seeing the desolate scene around him, Ichigo Kurosaki was trembling slightly.
"What the hell happened?"
Having lived for 15 years, Ichigo Kurosaki had interacted with many souls, but this was the first time he had ever seen anything like this.
"Help……"
A weak cry for help came from the ruins.
Ichigo Kurosaki followed the sound and found Higashizawa buried in a pile of rubble.
Kurosaki Ichigo quickly pulled him out of the rubble, placed him on the roadside, and then dialed an ambulance.
"Hey, have you seen anyone wearing a school uniform like me?"
Upon hearing Ichigo Kurosaki's question, the weak Higashizawa barely opened his eyelids. He glanced at Ichigo Kurosaki's school uniform and his expression immediately changed drastically.
Holy crap, they actually went to the same school as that jinx?
Could he be the King of Hell himself?
Dongze pointed in the direction where Chu Yang and Motokawa Yosuke disappeared and said in a loud voice, "He went that way!"
"Thank you! I've already called an ambulance for you. Just stay here and don't move."
Kurosaki Ichigo got up and ran, not forgetting to turn back and remind him, "Don't move around!"
Dongze nodded hurriedly, but after Kurosaki Ichigo had walked away, he still struggled to crawl across the road.
"Are you kidding me? You want me to stay still? You and that kid are in cahoots, planning to rob and kill me. You think I can't see through you? I don't believe you!"
Unable to observe the soul, Dongze blamed everything that had just happened on Chu Yang; he could only blame Chu Yang.
After all, how could a normal person easily believe in the existence of ghosts and gods?
Higashizawa struggled forward, completely forgetting Ichigo Kurosaki's instructions. Perhaps he was so engrossed in climbing that he didn't notice the flashing lights in the distance.
By the time he heard the roar of a car engine, it was too late.
The sky was dark, and the surrounding streetlights were completely destroyed.
It was pitch black all around, and the driver couldn't see anything on the road at all.
