Death: No cheats, take refuge in Aizen

Chapter 200 198. The Zanpakuto materialization commotion is still expanding

The riot did not last long.

In such a situation where almost all the strongest Shinigami in the Soul Society are gathered together, it would be a bit too much to think that a mere deputy captain's Zanpakutō entity could cause any big losses. Don't take these Death Captains seriously anymore.

"Captain, I don't know what's going on!"

After subduing the materialized Zanpakuto, Shiya, the vice-captain of the ninth division, explained to his captain Tosen Kaname.

"Don't worry, no one will blame you for this. We all know what your Zanpakutō is capable of. Your Zanpakutō is probably used by someone else. ”

After checking the entire venue and confirming that there were no other threats, Shiba Isshin, the captain of the 10th Division, came over and patted Shiya on the shoulder.

At this moment, only the captains and vice-captains of the Gotei Thirteenth Division were left in the entire venue, plus Higashino Shuichi and his members of the Sword Hunters, as well as the one who had just taken office as the general manager of the Mao Pharmacy Academy. Kiyosuke Yamada.

As for the nobles, they had already been escorted back to their respective nobles' residences by the vice-captain of the 13th division and the captain of the second division, Sui Feng, as well as the deputy captain of the second division, Nozomi Omaeda.

"However, being able to materialize the Death God's Zanpakutō is a very powerful ability."

Higashino Shuichi sat alone on one side of the venue, leaning on the back of the chair and saying with a faint smile on his face.

"It is a shameful act to use this method to master the swastika, and it is also a method that does not take advantage of a Shinigami's future growth. Without going through the process of communicating and understanding one's own Zanpakutō, it is impossible to truly master one's own power. !”

Kyoraku Shunsui, who was inspecting the Ninth Division deputy captain Shiya's Zanpakutō, glanced at Higashino Shuichi, and immediately guessed another hidden meaning in Higashino Shuichi's words, directly breaking the other vice-captains at the scene who had twisted thoughts. the thoughts in their minds.

As we all know, if a Shinigami wants to master Swastika, the first and most difficult step is to materialize his Zanpakutō through mutual understanding and communication with his own Zanpakutō.

And this ability to materialize the Death God's Zanpakutō will undoubtedly help the Death God greatly omit this step.

However, in the eyes of Kyōraku Shunsui, including the current captain Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni, this opportunistic approach is undoubtedly killing the future of a Shinigami, mastering the swastika without fully understanding his Zanpakutō. It will make it difficult for a god of death to achieve a breakthrough in his own power in the future.

Higashino Shuichi is actually very aware of this, and Urahara Kisuke, who is still in the present world, including Aizen, is also very aware of this.

That's why Aizen is dismissive of Urahara Kisuke's Tenshin Body, including Urahara Kisuke's failure to promote the Tenshin Body. The deeper meaning behind it may also be such a consideration.

While Soul Society is not short of captains and has not encountered any major life-or-death crisis, there is no benefit in trying to encourage others to succeed.

However, the truth is obvious. Now that such a special incident occurs, it is enough to attract the attention of the entire Gotei 13th Division.

Especially this incident happened at the scene where the former deputy captain of the fourth division took over as the general manager of Zhenyang Pharmacy Hospital.

In front of so many captains, this approach is simply like

"Provocation! Captain, this is their provocation against us!"

The captain of the seventh division, Komamura Zuozhen, looked at Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni and said angrily,

"Captain, I request that this matter be handed over to our Seventh Division. I will definitely investigate this matter in the shortest possible time!"

After Komamura Zuozhen finished speaking, another captain present groaned, "If possible, Captain, I hope this matter can be handed over to our Sixth Division!"

The speaker was one of the five current nobles, the head of the Kuchiki family and the current captain of the sixth division, Byakuya Kuchiki.

"Captain Kuchiki? Do you, Division 6, want to take over this matter?"

Komamura Zuozhen asked confusedly. In his impression, the Sixth Division had never been very involved in the daily affairs of the Gotei Thirteenth Division.

As the original nobility-exclusive squad, the Sixth Division's duty has always been to be responsible only for the affairs of the nobility.

At this point, it was not until the emergence of the Sword Hunters that they slowly began to change their responsibilities.

It's just that the Sixth Division has always been mainly responsible for handling noble affairs.

In my memory, there are still very few cases like now when captain Byakuya Kuchiki takes the initiative and wants to take over a certain case.

"The mastermind behind this incident is clearly provoking the entire Gotei Thirteenth Division and all the nobles. Due to circumstances, I, the captain of the Sixth Division, should investigate him."

Kuchiki Byakuya spoke plausibly, and people who didn't know anything about it might really think that Kuchiki Byakuya really wanted to contribute.

But Higashino Shuichi looked into Kuchiki Byakuya's eyes and found that the corners of the latter's eyes twitched slightly when he was speaking.

Obviously, that was a sign of guilty conscience.

"Oh, you're still too young."

Higashino Hideichi smiled slightly and thought in his heart.

After all, Kuchiki Byakuya took over too hastily.

Whether it was the Kuchiki family of Noda University or the captain of a division, for Kuchiki Byakuya, the time given to him to practice was too short.

Even though Byakuya Kuchiki has done his best to learn and absorb experience, there are some things that cannot be learned overnight.

Even Higashino Shuichi has been trained under Aizen for hundreds of years before he has the ability to do things without being shocked by honor or disgrace.

Not to mention the other old fritters present,

After Kuchiki Byakuya finished speaking, Kyoraku Shunsui put his hat back on his head, turned around, put his hands on his sleeves, and smiled without saying a word;

Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni, with his seemingly cloudy eyes, stayed on Kuchiki Byakuya for a moment.

"When things go out of the ordinary, there must be a reason. Even an upright captain like Komamura Zuozhen can detect something wrong. You don't think that you can hide it from everyone just by finding a reasonable excuse. Bar?"

Higashino Shuichi really wanted to say this to Kuchiki Byakuya.

Compared with the steady "Baymax" decades later in the original plot, the current Byakuya Kuchiki is indeed like a child in Higashino Hide's eyes.

He didn't even need to look at the subsequent reactions of Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni and Kyoraku Shunsui, he could already confirm in his heart that Kuchiki Byakuya's move must have aroused the suspicion of these two people.

However, this can only be suspicion.

The most typical representatives of the conservatives were Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni, and the reformist Kyōraku Shunsui.

Neither of these two people would really launch any proper investigation into Kuchiki Byakuya because of this kind of thing.

The head of one of the five nobles is still very intimidating at this point in time.

What's more, Higashino Shuichi guessed that Byakuya Kuchiki might not really know everything.

Otherwise, with Kuchiki Byakuya's character, no matter what the reason, he would never allow what just happened to happen.

"I support Captain Kuchiki, and if Captain Kuchiki needs anything during the follow-up investigation, you can come to me. Our fifth team is absolutely willing to provide any help we can~"

After Kuchiki Byakuya finished speaking, the captain of the fifth team, "Aizen", or Ichimaru Gin, directly and publicly expressed his support for Kuchiki Byakuya.

And this seemed to have played a good leading role. Immediately afterwards, the captain of the ninth team, Tosen Kaname, and the captain of the eleventh team, Zaraki Kenpachi, also expressed their support for Kuchiki Byakuya. .

In fact, Zaraki Kenpachi originally had no intention of expressing his opinion, but under the strong interference of his vice-captain Kusuka Yachiru, Zaraki Kenpachi reluctantly expressed his position.

"Little Kusanagi, if you are so active, you are probably eyeing the empty room in the Kuchiki family, right?"

As an "outsider", Higashino Shuichi had the good sense not to express his own opinions on matters involving the internal arrangements of the Gotei 13th Division. Therefore, while the other side was engaged in discussion, he quietly came to Kusuka Yachi Liu said jokingly next to him.

"Wow?! Xiao Xiuyi, how do you know? Can you read minds?!!"

After listening to Higashino Shuichi's words, Kusuka Yachiru's eyes instantly lit up, with an incredible expression on his face. At the same time, his body suddenly jumped from Zaraki Kenpachi's shoulders to Higashino Shuichi's head, and his two small hands were firmly He grabbed Higashino Shuichi's head, and at the same time used Higashino Shuichi's head as a tray for his chin, and his whole body was hung on Higashino Shuichi's head.

"What's so difficult about this? I heard Broken Bee say that your Female Death God Association hasn't found a suitable headquarters address so far, so every time you have a meeting, you have to temporarily borrow the team building of the Fourth Division.

At that time I was thinking, aren't you the vice-captain of the 11th Squadron? With the relationship between you and Zaragi, Kusuka-chan, it's not easy to make room in the 11th Division team building, but why do you go to the 4th Division team building specifically?

There is only one answer, and that is that as the president of the Female Death God Association, you are very picky about the location of your meetings. The place full of fighting atmosphere in the 11th Division team building is not within the scope of your consideration.

But I also came out of the Fourth Division. Even the quiet place like the Fourth Division's dormitory is not satisfied with you. So it is conceivable that there is no one in the entire Soul Society who is worthy of being chosen by you. There really aren't many places.

Coincidentally, I also know that the environment of the Kuchiki family is indeed very good.

So you see, little grass deer, this is not difficult to guess at all~"

Nothing happened. As the main person responsible for the security of the venue, Higashino Hideichi could not leave for a while, so he patiently explained to Kusuka Yachiru.

Unexpectedly, this move caused Kusuka Yaqianliu to be even more amazed.

"Please, this means it's not difficult for you, Xiao Xiuyi. How can a normal person analyze so many things at once?

I think Xiao Xiuyi, you should stop calling Xiao Xiuyi from now on! "

"Haha, little Grass Deer, if you don't call me Little Xiuyi from now on, what are you going to call me?"

He always chatted with thoughtful people, and occasionally chatted with simple shinigami like Kusaka Yachiru, Higashino Hideichi found it quite interesting.

"Well, let's just call you little magic stick!

There are so many explanations, you might as well say you just calculated it with your fingers! "

Yachiru Kusuka thought of the novel he had read some time ago and suddenly felt that the image of Higashino Shuichi was very consistent with the image of the magic stick in it, and he immediately said happily.

Then, Kusuka Yachiru raised his hands and his body fell.

It was almost, just that little bit close, that she would be humiliated and thrown into her grandma's house.

Fortunately, she grabbed Higashino Shuichi's thigh and hugged her tightly, otherwise she would have become the first vice-captain in history to fall to the ground due to excitement from above someone else's head.

"Hahaha!"

However, there is a saying that Higashino Shuichi was indeed amused by Kusuka Yachiru's behavior.

Just when Higashino Shuichi was about to turn around and reach out to lift Kusuka Yachiru from his thigh, the captain of the Second Division, Zaihou, who had gone to escort the nobles, suddenly returned to the scene.

"Sorry, everyone, not only Shiya, the vice-captain of Division 9, has his Zanpakutō materialized, but now most of the Shinigami in the entire Seireitei have their Zanpakutō materialized! "

As soon as Broken Bee came back, he brought bad news to everyone.

"What?"

Komamura Zuozhen showed an unbelievable look, while Zaraki Kenpachi moved faster. He laughed twice and rushed out of the venue.

Recently, the blind Kyon has been running into Soul Society to cause trouble. He can only bully the chief officer of his eleventh division. Occasionally, he can find Higashino Shuichi being tortured. His hands are already itchy!

On the other hand, Byakuya Kuchiki, who had just been officially appointed by Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni, was even more restless at this moment.

There was complete panic that could not be hidden in his eyes.

Because Byakuya Kuchiki knew very well that the ability to materialize a Zanpakutō was very similar to the Zanpakutō ability of someone he was very familiar with. However, in his impression, his uncle seemed to have only mastered the Zanpakutō. The beginning of the knife is correct.

But this is Soul Society, and it would not be unusual at all for a Shinigami to secretly master Swastika.

So Kuchiki Byakuya didn't take any chances from the beginning.

But now, his heart began to pray for that luck.

You must know that the nature of causing trouble with a Zanpakutō that only materializes one Shinigami is completely different from that of causing trouble against all Shinigami.

If Kuchiki Byakuya meant what if, this was really done by his uncle.

Kuchiki Byakuya was sure that even he couldn't save his uncle.

He even had to complete the cut with his uncle in cold blood, otherwise, the aristocratic group led by the Tsunayashiro family would not let go of this opportunity to inflict hardship on the Kuchiki family!

Therefore, Kuchiki Byakuya did not give any explanation after Zaraki Kenpachi left, but directly became the second captain to leave the scene.

There are some things that he must confirm for himself.

Then came the captain of the ninth division, Kaname Tosen, the captain of the fifth division, "Aizen Sosuke", the captain of the first division, Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni, and the captain of the second division, Soho.

Soon, only Higashino Shuichi and his sword hunters were left in the entire scene.

Even Yamada Seinosuke left in a hurry.

"Sir Xiuichi, do we want it?"

Kisaragi Susuke came to Higashino Shuichi and asked.

To be honest, he was very uncomfortable as a guard this time.

It's not that Kisaragi Susuke was dissatisfied with serving the nobles, but Kisaragi Susuke found that his job had been robbed from the beginning to the end.

Even after an emergency occurred, the work of the nobles who were supposed to be escorted by them was taken over by the captain of the second division, Sui Feng, who was once specifically responsible for this area.

This was a bit uncomfortable for Kisaragi Susuke, who finally came back and wanted to help Higashino Shuichi start a career.

In fact, if it weren't for the fact that the captain who took the initiative to escort was Sui Feng, Kisaragi Susuke might have robbed someone before.

But because the other party was Zai Bee, Kisaragi Suisuke knew very well that in the entire Soul Society, he was the only one who could be affectionately called by his nickname by Shuichi.

In other words, he couldn't afford to offend this captain who looked like a little girl.

That's why he regretfully gave up.

Now that he sees something big happening again, Kisaragi Suisuke wants to express himself a little bit.

In other words, he was eager to declare to the entire Soul Society the power of the Sword Hunters.

"No need, our duty is to protect the nobles, we will not interfere in this matter~"

Unfortunately, Higashino Shuichi shook his head and rejected Kisaragi Suisuke's idea.

He could understand Kisaragi Suisuke's thoughts, but he knew very well that he could not act rashly now.

Because unlike others, Higashino Shuichi could be sure that Kuchiki Byakuya's uncle Kuchiki Hibiki was behind this incident.

In the entire Soul Society, he is the only one who can do such a thing.

If this is still the timeline in the original plot, then Higashino Shuichi doesn't care. It is Kisaragi Suisuke's freedom to participate or not.

But Higashino Shuichi had met Kuchiki Hibiki not long ago. At that time, Kuchiki Hibiki's dissatisfaction with him was almost overflowing.

Higashino even suspected that Kuchiki Xianghe had falsely conveyed the imperial edict.

It's just that at that time, Higashino Shuichi was more interested in the Koizumi Izakaya incident, so he didn't pursue the matter.

But when these two things were combined, Higashino Shuichi's keen sense of smell could already smell a hint of calculation.

As we all know, when you are in the light and the enemy is in the dark, the best way is to remain unchanged in response to changes.

As long as you don't mess up your position, the enemy will definitely take the initiative.

That’s why Higashino Hideichi didn’t plan to let Kisaragi Xiuzhu and the others participate in this incident.

He wanted to see what kind of surprise Kuchiki Hibiki, who had not caused any trouble until now because of his butterfly effect, had prepared for him this time?
