Chapter 452: Genryusho Tsozen: Night City Third Seat? He's Merely a Minor Character!
Chapter 452: Genryusho Tsozen: Night City Third Seat? He's Merely a Minor Character!
As for Shiman Gin, the dignified Aizen maintained his confident smile, as if basking in the spring breeze.
For someone who possessed 'Mirage Water Moon', the idea of being confined was merely a joke.
"Gin, there's been a change of plans. It seems we need to take action sooner than expected."
The Night City Third Seat is smarter than I thought. If we let him continue his investigation, we'll be exposed sooner or later."
Since that's the case, we might as well start our plan. After all, we've been prepared for a long time, and there's no need to stay in Soul Society any longer."
Aizen had paid attention to Night City before, but in his eyes, the other party was merely a talented and discreet young man.
However, after today's events, Aizen realized that he had misjudged the situation.
Aizen prided himself on his intelligence and looked down on everyone in Soul Society, believing that only Kurona Kiyotsugu was his match in terms of research.
Of course, even when it came to Kurona Kiyotsugu, Aizen only respected him in terms of research, and when it came to strategy and manipulation, Kurona Kiyotsugu was also under Aizen's control.
But today, Aizen realized that among the mediocre captains of the Gotei 13, there was another intelligent person.
Not only was this person deeply hidden, but they had also uncovered so much information from the traces Aizen had left behind.
Originally, Aizen had planned to wait for Black Zaki Ichigo and the others to come to Soul Society to rescue Rukia Kuchiki and cause chaos in Seireitei before turning against them.
But the current situation no longer allowed for that. If something were to change, and the 'Hollowification Gem' inside Rukia Kuchiki was discovered, or if Night City's investigation revealed that Aizen was the mastermind, their situation would become very passive.
After finding Shiman Gin in the Third Division, Aizen went to the Ninth Division and brought Genryusho Tsozen along.
Even after leaving their division barracks, no one around them noticed anything.
Because Aizen's Zanpakuto, 'Mirage Water Moon', had the ability to control others' five senses, in the eyes of outsiders, Aizen and Shiman Gin were still standing in their original spots.
"Captain Aizen, what should we do next? Should we assassinate the Third Seat of the Thirteenth Division?"
Compared to Shiman Gin, Genryusho Tsozen was more than willing to be a lackey. When they were alone, Genryusho Tsozen addressed Aizen as "Captain Aizen" instead of "Captain Aizen."
"No, killing the Night City Third Seat who is in charge of the investigation will only alert them.
Moreover, the Night City Third Seat's strength is not as simple as you imagine."
Even though the situation had changed, Aizen maintained his elegant posture, as if everything was under his control.
"Genryusho Tsozen, you go to the Hollow Realm first and send all the experimental Arrancar through the Black Abyss to Seireitei.
There are still a few tricky captains in the current Gotei 13, so we must muddy the waters.
As for Shiman Gin, you come with me to the Central 46th Division. We're going to give the Night City Third Seat a return gift."
Seeing Aizen calmly giving orders, Genryusho Tsozen nodded and accepted the order before leaving.
As for Aizen himself, he headed to the Central 46th Division of Seireitei's Judicial Court with Shiman Gin.
In Aizen's opinion, direct confrontation was undoubtedly foolish, although with his strength, he could face anyone head-on.
However, he considered himself an intellectual type, and he didn't want to resort to physical action when he could solve problems with his brain, as that didn't fit his style.
Yecheng, having received orders from the Captain Commander, continued their charade of searching and investigating everywhere.
To support Yecheng's actions, the Captain Commander, in an unprecedented move, instructed the Second Division to follow Yecheng's orders and assist in the investigation.
Among the 13th Division, the Second Division was the least likely to have issues due to its unique nature. Every member, from the captain down, had undergone rigorous investigations and interrogations upon joining, which allowed them to hold multiple important positions.
"Captain Shui Fen, I suspect there's a problem within the 9th Division. Please have your people search their quarters!" Especially in Captain Dong Xian's room, I feel there's a big problem. I want to take everything back for research."
The petite Rank A Captain, seeing Yecheng's pretentiousness, was extremely dissatisfied with his arrogant demeanor. Her face tightened as she glared at Yecheng and asked, "Yecheng, Third Seat, are you sure you're searching and investigating, or are you just lining your pockets and settling personal scores?"
Due to this situation within the Gotei 13, and the fact that the Second Division was unaware of it beforehand, the Second Division, as the Penal Army, already had a responsibility for oversight.
So, when the Captain Commander ordered the Second Division to assist Yecheng in the investigation, Shui Fen, despite her displeasure at the Second Division having to follow the orders of a Third Seat, had no choice but to comply.
However, as the investigation unfolded, Shui Fen realized that Yecheng wasn't seriously investigating at all. Instead, he was openly engaging in extortion, bribery, and coercion, taking it to the extreme.
For the 13th and 8th Divisions, with whom he had close relationships, Yecheng merely went through the motions.
For divisions with whom he had a neutral relationship, as long as they slipped him some money in secret, Yecheng wouldn't cause trouble and would just stroll around a couple of times before leaving.
But when they arrived at the 9th Division, facing Dong Xian, who had just returned from the Hollow Realm, Yecheng naturally hinted that he should be bribed.
However, who would have thought that this blind man would scoff at Yecheng's bribe and even openly mock him.
In Dong Xian's eyes, Yecheng was just a minor character. Even if he had a bit of cunning, that was the extent of it.
His current greedy behavior furthered Dong Xian's disdain. Although he didn't know why Aizen-sama favored this insignificant person, it was absolutely impossible for him, Dong Xian, to compromise with a small fry like Yecheng!
And facing Dong Xian, who had such "unbending pride," Yecheng naturally didn't hold back. He directly ordered the Second Division members to move all the valuable items from Dong Xian's room to his own.
He, the "Imperial Envoy" Yecheng, now suspected that these items were problematic and wanted to take them back for thorough research.
Unfortunately, Dong Xian didn't have a wife or a beautiful older or younger sister; otherwise, Yecheng would have felt it necessary to bring him back to his room for "harsh interrogation"!
However, it was precisely Yecheng's behavior of judging people by their appearance and taking favoritism and injustice to the extreme that caused Shui Fen to explode on the spot.
In the eyes of the Rank A Captain, Yecheng was now a petty person who, upon gaining power, settled personal scores. This guy's shamelessness even extended to not letting the blind man off the hook! And you were giving hints by rubbing your fingers in front of Captain Dong Xian, but he's blind; how could he see your hints?
The Penal Army was a special force within the Gotei 13, responsible for detention and supervision. Therefore, discipline and fairness were their fundamental principles.
At this moment, Shui Fen believed that Yecheng's behavior was the very reason he should be thrown into the Worm's Nest.
