Chapter 118: The Possibility of Reviving Haiyan's Wife
Chapter 118: The Possibility of Reviving Haiyan's Wife
Kaede Shiba's wife, Tagawa Tsuru, was a beautiful and powerful female Shinigami, formerly the Third Seat of the 13th Division.
Her death should have occurred after Rukia joined the 13th Division, as she was consumed by Metastacia, a Hollow created by Aizen's experiments with fusion abilities, while on the front lines.
Haiyan, seeking revenge for his wife, unfortunately lost to Metastacia due to its ability to nullify Zanpakuto powers, and eventually, his spirit body was taken.
At that time, Captain Fukutsuki and Rukia were spectators, and Fukutsuki believed that Haiyan should personally avenge his wife to prevent any lingering resentment.
However, this also led to Haiyan's death, leaving a painful memory for both Fukutsuki and Rukia.
In summary, Tagawa Tsuru and Haiyan died on the same day, several years after her initial death.
Yecheng speculated that the reason Tagawa Tsuru died earlier than expected was likely due to the influence of the small butterfly—himself.
While Haiyan's wife's death was undoubtedly a significant blow, Yecheng saw it as an opportunity to change their fate.
Metastacia's Hollow abilities were unique, possessing the power to absorb and fuse with others' souls.
Shinigami, at their core, were composed of souls and Reishi particles. If Tagawa Tsuru had truly been devoured by Metastacia, Yecheng couldn't even consider the possibility of reviving her.
"Are you serious about what you just said? You claim you can revive my wife, Tagawa Tsuru? Is this true?"
After hearing Yecheng's words, Haiyan stopped drinking and pulled Yecheng outside, asking earnestly and anxiously, "After knowing me for so long, do you think I'd joke about something like this?"
Yecheng continued, pulling out a bottle from his pocket, "When Tagawa Tsuru met her unfortunate end, I was among the first Shinigami to arrive at the scene.
As her soul dissipated, I managed to collect some of her soul fragments and Reishi particles.
After years of my research, I've found a preliminary method to revive her, but I've lacked the resources to proceed until now."
Yecheng's "years of research" was, of course, an exaggeration. The ability to revive Tagawa Tsuru came from the mysterious space and the powerful figures from other worlds.
In the "Uncle's World," there existed a Divine Power capable of reviving even a Poison Dragon reduced to a toxic mist, elevating it to a Divine Poison Dragon.
If Yecheng from the Uncle's World could obtain this Divine Power and share it, in theory, Tagawa Tsuru, with only soul fragments, could be revived.
As for soul transference and new bodies, there were professionals in the Naruto World who could handle such tasks. As a medical ninja, Yecheng could also potentially master these skills.
Watching the Shinigami series, Yecheng always felt regretful for Kaede Shiba and Hirosue.
Now, with the opportunity to change their fate, Yecheng, as their friend, was determined to try.
"In these years, I've dedicated most of my efforts to reviving our family, but I do have some savings..."
Haiyan didn't ask Yecheng for specifics, but he understood that soul-related research was prohibited in the Soul Society.
And so, Yecheng, in his determination to help himself, has resolutely chosen to defy taboos, a decision that has deeply moved him.
"With the Kuchiki family's reward, we should have enough funds to purchase various research equipment."
What they lacked now was a place that was both hidden and secure, and the resurrected Tagawa Tsuru might need a new identity.
Otherwise, with her original appearance, if the Soul Society discovers her resurrection, it would cause significant trouble for them and might even attract the attention of dangerous individuals."
Regarding Yecheng's requirements, Haiyan had no objections. He didn't mind what his wife would become as long as she remained the same person inside.
As for a safe and hidden place...
After leaving the 13th Division's living quarters, Haiyan brought Yecheng to the West Rukongai.
The Shiba family was once a prominent family in the Soul Society, alongside the Kuchiki and Shiba families, collectively known as the Five Great Noble Houses of the Soul Society.
However, due to subsequent events, the Shiba family declined, and Haiyan relocated the family to the Rukongai.
This was partly to protect his younger siblings from the noble conflicts in the Seireitei and also because living expenses in the Rukongai were significantly lower than in the Seireitei.
When Yecheng mentioned the need for a hidden and secure place, the first thought that came to Haiyan's mind was his own home.
Compared to the Seireitei, which was under the watchful eyes of the Gotei 13, the Rukongai was undoubtedly much safer.
Moreover, even a starving camel is bigger than a horse; although the Shiba family had fallen, their home still had reliable defense mechanisms and trustworthy servants.
"Speaking of which, despite knowing each other for so long, this is only my second time visiting your home. It must have been several decades since my last visit."
Looking at the luxurious mansion standing in the Rukongai, Yecheng couldn't help but marvel. Although Haiyan was a fallen noble head, his current lifestyle still surpassed that of most Shinigami in the Soul Society.
"Boom——————!"
As Haiyan led Yecheng through the entrance, a loud explosion immediately caught their attention.
Despite the sudden explosion within his home, Haiyan, as the head of the family, showed no signs of panic but instead covered his face with his hand in exasperation.
As for Yecheng beside him, he wasn't surprised either but instead asked with a wry smile, "Is Kyokaku also at home? Has she finished another new creation?"
"What new creation? She's always causing explosions at home! One day, she'll blow up this house!
As the eldest daughter of the Shiba family, she has no sense of nobility, and after spending time with Ye Yi from the Shiba family, she's picked up all sorts of bad habits.
Now she's even wilder than most boys. When she was younger, I, as her brother-in-law, could still keep her in check, but now I have no control over this sister of mine."
When Yecheng and Haiyan arrived at the Shiba family's backyard, they found that the garden, which used to be filled with flowers and plants, now had a massive crater in the center.
Even the Shiba family's walls had partially collapsed due to the impact of the recent explosion.
Seeing the devastation before him, Haiyan's expression darkened after a moment of shock.
He even began to doubt if the place he recommended to Yecheng could truly be considered "safe."
