Death: No cheats, take refuge in Aizen

Chapter 47 47. Void Cocoon Plan

As summer approaches, Seireitei is warm and humid.

Standing between the waterside pavilions of the Fourth Division, Higashino Shuichi stretched his body comfortably.

As the saying goes, a dead pig is not afraid of boiling water.

This is the current state of Higashino Shuichi.

When the number of things pressing on his head reached a certain level, Higashino Shuichi relaxed.

There is no rush.

About half an hour later, Higashino Shuichi walked out of Seireitei after get off work and returned to his residence in District 2 of Nishi Rukongai. It was still on the second floor and in the same location.

"Say it."

Aizen didn't say any nonsense and went straight to the point.

"Lord Aizen, can you conduct a virtualization experiment in advance?"

Higashino Shuichi also said bluntly.

Today he took the initiative to contact Aizen and asked the latter to meet him.

Originally, Higashino Shuichi chose the ramen restaurant in Seireitei, the ramen shop that the two often went to, but Aizen changed it to Higashino Hide's family.

"in advance?"

Aizen was intrigued by Higashino Shuichi's answer.

Regarding the Hollow transformation of the Death God, he came up with this idea after making Bengyu and testing the Arrancar transformation on the group of Achukas-level Hollows in Hueco Mundo.

And he did mention it to Higashino Shuichi and Tosen Kaname before, but he also made it clear that it was too early to conduct virtualization experiments now.

This is because the Shinigami virtualization experiment is different from the previous extraction of a part of the souls of the Shinigami, or the extraction of the souls of civilians in Rukongai who have the qualifications to become Shinigami.

The Death God's virtualization experiment requires capturing the Death God on a large scale and then conducting experiments. This is no longer a trivial matter. A bad thing will attract the Soul Society's great attention.

Therefore, after weighing the pros and cons, Aizen decided to prioritize the plan to force out the Zero Division.

The Shinigami can be captured at any time, but once the Soul Society is alerted and they want to make any big move, the difficulty will increase exponentially.

Aizen did not say this out loud, but he believed that with the wisdom Higashino Hideichi had always shown, he would not fail to understand.

"Yes, in advance, and this time, we may be able to find a very reliable ally!"

Higashino Shuichi nodded firmly.

"Kasumidaoji Zhenyu? Not Yunjing Yaokaku."

Hearing the word "ally", Aizen instantly guessed Higashino Shuichi's thoughts.

Kasumi Ohji Shinsuke is ambitious, but as the top noble in Soul Society, and his dream is to become the sixth highest noble in Soul Society, or to replace one of the original five nobles, Kasumi Ohji Shinsuke will never touch this Taboo in Soul Society.

But Kumoi Yaokaku was different. Through Higashino Shuichi's inquiries over the years, Aizen already knew that the Tapir Yao Knife project was originally proposed by Kumoi Yaokaku to Kasumioji Shinsuke.

As for what the Tapir Yao Knife is, everyone who knows it knows it well.

Therefore, Yunjing Yaojue would definitely do anything to achieve his goal of replacing Xia Dalu's family.

"What are you going to do?"

Aizen found that he seemed to have underestimated Higashino Shuichi's wisdom.

Although his subordinate, who is not very talented, may not be worth mentioning in terms of scientific research, he has proven his combat wisdom countless times. His spiritual pressure is close to him, and even exceeds that of a few people. In a fight to the death, there is a high probability that he will not be his opponent.

Now, maybe he has made some achievements in strategy.

"The Heart of the Spirit King, the Cocoon of the Void!"

Higashino Shuichi slowly said seven words.

"interesting."

Conversations between smart people never require too many words.

Regarding the Soul King, in the original plot, Aizen didn't know about it until the captain of the 12th Division, Hikifune Kiryu, was promoted to the Zero Division.

But now, because Aizen entered the Great Spirit Book Corridor in advance, he learned the information about the Soul King early, and also learned about the despicable deeds that the five nobles did to the Soul King in ancient times.

At the same time, Aizen did not hide any secrets. These things were briefly mentioned to Higashino Shuichi and Tōsen Kaname.

Therefore, they all knew that the Spiritual King was made into a human pig.

Just the soul king's heart?

The location of this thing is not even recorded in the Great Spirit Book Corridor, and no one knows where it is.

But Hideyoshi Higashino brought out the heart of the Soul King, and even added the concept of a cocoon of the void later.

Is Higashino Shuichi confused?

no.

Aizen knew that Higashino Shuichi was telling him that he could use the Soul King's heart as a gimmick to build a false Hollow Cocoon.

As for what is the cocoon of the void?

Needless to say?

The cocoon that hatches the void, doesn't that mean the death of the void?

As for whether Kumoi Yaokaku believes this, this is not a question that Aizen himself needs to consider.

He believed that since Higashino Shuichi dared to call him out specifically and put forward this idea, Higashino Shuichi must have made his own plans.

If not, it doesn't matter, you will see that Higashino Hideichi cannot bear the price.

"How do we need to cooperate?"

This should be the first time Aizen has asked this question to others, but he feels that if Higashino Shuichi can really do this, the latter is worthy of him.

Because this is really an interesting thing.

What could be more pleasurable than having your enemy help you count money without knowing that he has been sold?

"Lord Aizen, you only need to let Kumoi Yaokaku see what he should see in the Great Spirit Book Corridor, and leave the rest to me!"

Higashino Shuichi said confidently.

"Can."

Aizen nodded in agreement.

It has to be said that Higashino Shuichi is indeed the most comfortable and worry-free subordinate he has used so far.

If it weren't for Higashino Shuichi's reiatsu qualifications being really low.

Thinking of this, Aizen suddenly remembered that Higashino Shuichi had reported to him some time ago that he had discovered an interesting civilian in Rukongai.

There seemed to be fluctuations in the fragments of the Soul King's body in that civilian's body that far exceeded those of some civilians he had encountered before.

At that time, Aizen was experimenting with how to create Arrancars with specific abilities, and had no time to deal with matters in Soul Society.

Coupled with the fragments of the Soul King's body, Aizen has already studied it. It is indeed very useful for ordinary Shinigami. It can help them break through the original upper limit of spiritual pressure to a certain extent and gain new power.

But for Aizen himself, as he already possesses Bengyoku, the body fragments of the Spirit King are a bit tasteless, and it would be a pity to abandon them.

Therefore, he put aside the matter of how to deal with the civilian for the time being.

Looking back now, why did Higashino Shuichi choose this time to report this matter to himself?

The answer to this question is almost self-evident.

Aizen is very aware of this old subordinate who has been with him for almost a hundred years. The latter has always had a strong heart, but his talent has limited him.

"You want this Soul King body fragment, Shuichi?"

Aizen looked directly into Higashino Shuichi's eyes, without saying the above words, but his gaze was reaching deep into the latter's heart.

For Aizen, it doesn't matter if his subordinates are ambitious. What's important is, does Higashino Shuichi have the ability to match his ambition?

He was looking forward to it.
