Chapter 593: A Request from the Kuchiki Matriarch
Chapter 593: A Request from the Kuchiki Matriarch
On the other side, as Yecheng entered the room where Kuchiki Fushiro was resting, he saw her half-sitting on the bed, being fed by her maid.
When Fushiro saw Yecheng walk in, she rubbed her eyes in disbelief, and after confirming that it was indeed Yecheng, she struggled to get up, ignoring the maid's attempts to stop her. She then ran over to Yecheng and hugged him.
Yecheng: (⋋▂⋌) Please, Lady, you're making this difficult for me...
"Yecheng, Byakuya's personality is so proud, and he values the Kuchiki family's honor more than anyone. It's impossible for him to betray the Gotei 13."
"Since the news of Kuchiki Byakuya's betrayal spread in Seireitei, Fushiro has been running around seeking help."
The family head had betrayed them, but as the matriarch, she couldn't afford to give up. Otherwise, the Kuchiki family would truly be finished.
Unfortunately, Fushiro was originally from the Rukongai, and most of the nobility looked down on her humble origins.
Moreover, as one of the four great noble families, the Kuchiki name was already too dazzling, and many even hoped for their downfall.
Amidst internal and external troubles, Fushiro, who had been struggling to hold on, eventually collapsed under the heavy burden.
But what could Fushiro do? As the lady of the Kuchiki family, she saw Lucia as a sister in need of protection. Could she confide in her?
Obviously not. Lucia couldn't help her, and it was even likely that she herself would be in danger.
In this desperate situation, the only person Fushiro could think of was her close friend, Yecheng.
When Yecheng emerged from Fushiro's room, Lucia and Ichigo hurriedly approached to inquire about the situation.
"Fushiro's condition isn't too serious. She's just physically weak, and with the exhaustion from this period, she hasn't had much proper rest."
"After I promised to help investigate Byakuya's matter, he fell asleep peacefully. Let's not disturb him for now."
Having agreed to help, Yecheng had no idea where to start. He decided to first report to his own captain and then visit Zabimaru, who had been injured by Byakuya.
Yecheng's original task was to station in the Human World, so it would be best to report to his superiors before returning, or else others might take advantage of the situation.
When Lucia learned that Yecheng was going to investigate the truth behind Byakuya's betrayal, she was delighted. In her eyes, Yecheng had the ability and strength to expose even the deeply hidden Sosuke Aizen.
The truth behind the elder brother's betrayal would surely be uncovered by Yecheng in no time.
"Brother Yecheng, I entrust the matter of the elder brother to you. As for your return to the Soul Society, I'll report to Captain Fujikaze and the Captain-Commander."
Considering that they would be by his side, Yecheng's movements might be restricted, so Lucia took the initiative to offer to report the situation for him.
Before leaving, she also pulled away Ichigo, who was standing nearby, lacking awareness.
With Lucia's offer to report the situation, Yecheng was naturally relieved, and he headed towards the location of the Fourth Division.
Zabimaru was currently lying in the Fourth Division, recuperating from her serious injuries.
On his way there, Yecheng also saw other Shinigami who had been attacked by their Zanpakuto.
Although the Zanpakuto had rebelled, they had not yet completely taken over Seireitei, causing only a certain level of chaos.
Compared to the number of Shinigami with materialized Zanpakuto in the Gotei 13, there were more Shinigami on the Gotei 13 side.
The materialized Zanpakuto had at least achieved the Initial Release, but among the numerous Shinigami in the Gotei 13, only a small percentage could communicate with their Zanpakuto and achieve the Initial Release.
As he passed by, Yecheng slashed a humanoid creature with red skin and a fork-like weapon in hand.
At the same time, the opponent's body also turned back into a Zanpakuto and split in half!
This sudden turn of events stunned the few materialized Zanpakuto and Yecheng who were present.
Yecheng was stunned because he couldn't believe that a materialized Zanpakuto would actually break when defeated. If it could be repaired, that would be fine, but if it couldn't, then wouldn't it be...
As for the stunned materialized Zanpakuto, they were shocked by the strength Yecheng had displayed.
It was common knowledge that almost all the Zanpakuto of the Shinigami in the Gotei 13 had materialized and betrayed them. Yet, Yecheng was able to defeat one of their comrades without using his Zanpakuto's abilities, which meant he was at least a Captain-level Shinigami!
"Retreat! I know this guy, he's not an ordinary Shinigami. Staying here will only lead to death!"
Among the few materialized Zanpakuto present, there was a fat man with a wide body, a protruding belly, and a pentagonal hairstyle. Upon seeing Yecheng, he immediately turned and fled without hesitation.
Given his size and weight, no ordinary person would have expected him to be so agile.
When they saw their leader running away, the other materialized Zanpakuto also chose to scatter and flee without hesitation.
With Yecheng's strength, it was possible to keep all the materialized Zanpakuto from before. However, when he saw the Zanpakuto broken in half on the ground, he ultimately decided not to keep them.
"Is this the result of a materialized Zanpakuto being defeated by someone other than themselves?
If my 'Higan' were to materialize, I wonder what form it would take. For some reason, I'm oddly looking forward to it."
Yecheng patted the hilt of his Zanpakuto at his waist, picked up the broken Zanpakuto on the ground, and quickly increased the speed of his Flash Steps towards the Fourth Division barracks.
Due to the Zanpakuto's rebellion, the Fourth Division had been extremely busy every day recently.
Many ordinary Shinigami had been attacked by their Zanpakuto, and because the Zanpakuto had materialized and betrayed them, many Seated Officers in the Fourth Division who were skilled in healing could no longer use their abilities to treat injuries.
The reason why Zabimaru was still lying in the Fourth Division was mainly because Hanataro's Zanpakuto, Ashisogi Jizo, had also materialized. Although the usual healing techniques were enough to stabilize Zabimaru's injuries, they couldn't restore Zabimaru's fighting ability immediately.
As a Captain-level Shinigami, Zabimaru had a private room to recover. When Yecheng pushed open the door and entered, Zabimaru's upper body was wrapped in bandages, listening to Vice-Captain Kurotsuchi's work report.
Seeing Kurotsuchi eating snacks while reporting, Yecheng suddenly remembered that the fat Zanpakuto he met on the road was probably Kurotsuchi's Five-Headed Snake.
After all, the resemblance between the Five-Headed Snake and its owner was so striking that they were almost identical, except for their hairstyles.
