Death god, my Zanpakuto is a bit trendy

Superior nobles.

"Shua!"

In a remote building near the courtyard wall, a figure dressed in the same style as the ninja appeared in front of a door with a flash step.

"Mission completed?"

Behind the ornate sliding door, the shadow of the giant was projected on the outside by the light.

"Yes, sir."

The "ninja" knelt on one knee and bowed his head very respectfully.

"How is the effect of the medicine?"

"It is exactly as expected."

"Completely?"

With a little displeasure, the ninja was sweating all over.

"...... No, I, I mean, the difference is no more than 20% in line with the expectation."

Fortunately, he quickly organized his words, otherwise his predecessor's fatal disaster would have come to him at this moment.

"Very good..."

"Is there any problem with Mao Shiyaoyuan?"

The shadow suddenly changed the subject.

"Don't worry, sir. We have more than one handle on the general representative, and the experimental data has been destroyed immediately."

After the ninja finished his report, the 15 seconds of fear and trembling finally ended when the shadow spoke again:

"Well done, what did Tsunayashiro say?"

"Nothing."

The ninja shook his head.

"......A bunch of old foxes, it's a pity that the little fox whose fur hasn't grown yet died a little too early."

After the shadow said this, he fell silent again.

"Forget it."

"The matter of collecting Zanpakutō has come to an end for the time being."

"If we do things under the eyes of the Kuchiki family, once we are discovered, the Tsunayashiro family may not protect us."

"With so many bodies, it's time for that old thing Yunjing to produce some results."

"Otherwise..."

"There is still a difference between the family elder and the head of the family for us."

If Haruto was present, he would definitely be familiar with the surname mentioned by the shadow.

"Go and finish it."

After listening to the report for nearly half an hour, the shadow finally ended the conversation.

"......Yes, sir!"

The ninja was relieved and hurried away from the terrifying door.

"......"

"Huh."

The lights went out.

In the dark room, only Shadow's mumbling remained.

"Ginrei Kuchiki is already old."

"But the Kuchiki family has won over too many people over the years, and there is a tendency to catch up with the Tsunayashiro family."

Shadow's voice was a little dissatisfied, not against the Kuchiki family, but the "masters" above them.

"Fortunately, their brains and military power are not concentrated on one person, otherwise, no one among the younger generation of the Tsunayashiro family can carry the banner at this moment."

"......"

"Wait."

"Not on one person......"

"Maybe, no, the Tsunayashiro family should think so too."

The darkness of tonight has not yet dissipated, but the dark clouds of tomorrow have arrived early.

Volume 1: 047, Night Talk at Kotetsu's House

The night in late autumn is a little cool.

"Knock, knock."

Two knocks on the door, one second pause.

"Wow."

Haruto smiled and opened the door.

The light, which was several times brighter than the moonless courtyard behind him, instantly came into view.

"Am I not late?"

"So-so~"

Ayaka, who was not the owner of this place, shook her head pretentiously.

"I didn't ask you."

Haruto pretended to sigh.

"Ah Haru."

Yuyin, who was sitting closest to the door, turned around and led Haruto into the room.

"Mother..."

"Looks like it's going well?"

Haruto didn't cover his hand: the wound cut by the rope in the morning had all healed at this time.

The red bandage was also removed early.

"Yeah."

Haruto nodded.

"Vice Captain Yamada replied...this injury is basically easy to deal with."

Earlier, Yuyin took Haruto to find his mother, who immediately led him to the 4th Division barracks after hearing what happened.

Ask the vice-captain of the 4th Division, Yamada Seinosuke, to help with the treatment.

"Why did it take so long when it was so easy?"

In the direction opposite the sliding door, Byakuya, who had not been seen for a long time, asked. Haruto was worried that this guy would get sick from practicing at home all day, so he invited him here with Yuin's consent.

Although Kuchiki Sojun was not at home, old man Kuchiki was quite reasonable and let Byakuya out.

"Well..."

Haruto paused with a strange look on his face.

"My aunt talked a little more, so Captain Yamada was very interested in my Kidō ability and wanted me to try Kaido."

Yuin's mother knew Haruto's situation very well. I think Yuin told her about her own things when she went home...

Or maybe Kiyon deliberately revealed it when she teased her sister.

"Don't you have the talent for Kaido?"

"So~"

Haruto spread his hands and walked towards the position next to Byakuya... The latter quickly understood what Haruto meant.

As for talent, the Shinō Spiritual Arts Institute has a systematic and effective way to identify it. It doesn't mean that once Haruto's physical fitness improves, the test results of his talent for Kaido will change... If he says he doesn't have it, then he doesn't have it.

Of course.

As Haruto continues to improve in ghost ways, it is not difficult for him to use some simple replies.

It’s just half the result with half the effort.

Moreover, Haruto firmly believes that "Returning to the Path cannot save Soul Society" and has no development ideas for returning to the Path——

These are things Byakuya has known all along.

So.

The reason why Haruto repeated it again...

"I see."

Byakuya moved his butt to the side.

Although he had some objections to Haruto's behavior of jockeying for position, Byakuya, who was still digesting the information, did not have the extra attention to pay attention to this trivial matter.

What Deputy Captain Yamada is really interested in is Haruto's body after being transformed by Tenzumaru... It's not convenient to tell everyone this.

"Where's Qingyin?"

Everyone gathered around an exquisite brazier.

Yuone, Nanao, Ayaka, Byakuya... Haruto glanced over, and it seemed that there were still characters who were not there.

"The front foot just left."

Ayaka took over Haruto's words.

"Do you still remember why she didn't come to school during the day?"

"...went shopping with friends?"

In terms of memory, Haruto is quite confident, and he can remember the information he talks about very clearly.

"Bingo~"

Ayaka's language system is not limited to Soul Society.

"To be precise, she took her neighbor out shopping."

"I kept waiting for you and you didn't come back. Qingyin might as well——"

"Dong dong dong."

Before Caihua finished speaking, the sound of trotting footsteps could be heard in the corridor, and it sounded like there was more than one person.

"Wow——"

"I'm back!"

Accompanying the call at the sliding door was Qingyin's loud voice as always.

"Oh~"

"Aqing is back and seems to be recovering well!"

Kiyone immediately spotted Haruto sitting cross-legged.

"Come!"

"I'll introduce you to a new friend..."

Qingyin took off her shoes and walked into the house first, then turned sideways to the somewhat poor...thin body.

"Speaking of which, it has something to do with A-Qing's treatment of your injuries!"
