Bleach - The Grim Reaper (Male Reader Insert) [Book 1]

Prepare for Battle!

The Court Guard was surprised to know that not only was the Royal Palace taken over, but the Soul King really was killed.

Soi-Fon: Since coming here, I haven't sensed the Soul King's Spiritual Pressure. I hate to think that it was true that he really died.

Kyoraku: The fact that our advance troops weren't wiped out is good news. If the Soul King died at the hands of the enemy, then we need to defeat the enemy and decide on a new Soul King.

Gin: So it's up to us to take them out.

Kyoraku: Now, now... They're far away, but I can feel the Spiritual Pressure of Ichigo's party. In fact, I can feel (Y/N)'s spiritual pressure on its way here right now.

Almost as if he planned it, (Y/N) made his entrance as he made his landing. The winged hollow that brought him stayed in flight.

(Y/N): Mr. Urahara! Captain Kyoraku! I'm glad you all were able to get here! That takes a lot of pressure off of us.

Kyoraku: Well met, (Y/N). Thanks for keeping the Quincies at bay while we found a way to get here.

(Y/N): Someone had to do it. Besides, it wasn't just me out there. How did you guys get here anyway?

Hiyori: It was thanks to our help! We got most of the energy to create a gateway here.

Urahara: Hiyori and the others were the ones that collected the distortion energy I told you about. With that, along with energy from all the Court Guard Members, we've been able to create the gate. Though the major contributor was actually the hole that was left open through the barrier by Kurosaki. We wouldn't have been able to travel here if it wasn't for that.

(Y/N): I see. Only you would think of something like that.

Kyoraku: While you're here, mind telling us how many enemies we should be expecting?

(Y/N): Including Yhwach, eight in total.

(Y/N) hated having to include Uryu in their list of enemies but he couldn't falter because Uryu was his friend. (Y/N) was pulled out of his thoughts when he heard a new voice enter the conversation.

"Then we'll take care of them for you so you can direct all of your attention to the leader."

(Y/N) heard a voice that he never thought he'd hear in a long time. (Y/N) turned around and saw Gin walking towards him.

Gin: Long time no see, huh?

(Y/N): Gin? Why... How are you here?

Gin: Thank the Head Captain. The situation was dire so he got his hands dirty.

Kyoraku: Hey now, don't phrase it like that.

(Y/N): If Gin's here then... Don't tell me...

Urahara: Both Azashiro and Aizen have been released as well.

(Y/N): I... *sigh* No, the odds are against us despite the numbers advantage that we have... It may actually be in our best interest to have Aizen's assistance if he's willing. Where is he?

Gin: We left him in Soul Society. But Azashiro is with us.

(Y/N): Why? You released him to help us, didn't you?

Kyoraku: I'm sure he'll find his way here eventually.

(Y/N): I guess when you have an item as powerful as the Hogyoku, you can make the impossible happen...

(Y/N) then looked at Gin.

(Y/N): I can't possibly look you in the eyes and ask you for your help after I failed to uphold my end of the deal.
