Chapter 596: The Mother and Daughter Flowers of the Beyond Have Become Physical!
In the Fourth Division's barracks, Yecheng walked out with a clear palm print on his handsome face.
After his injuries were fully healed and he had a clear direction for his investigation, Zabimaru chose to leave immediately.
Zabimaru acknowledged Yecheng's abilities and suggested they split up. She would investigate the Kuchiki Clan's affairs, while Yecheng would search for Kuchiki Byakuya or the mastermind behind the events.
As for the thanks for treating Zabimaru, that was the slap on Yecheng's face.
According to Zabimaru, not only had she been seen naked, but she had also been touched. Not tearing Yecheng to pieces and only giving him a slap was already being lenient with him.
Yecheng felt he had been cheated. If he had known the reward would be a slap, he would have taken more liberties earlier. Ultimately, he had been too much of a gentleman.
A
As the male and female leads, the two naturally had a "monster-attracting aura." As long as he stayed with them temporarily, the supposed mastermind would surely show up.
However, he had barely walked halfway when his 'aura sensing' detected a faint spiritual pressure that had been following him all along.
The spiritual pressure was unfamiliar, not from anyone he knew. Since the person had been following him the whole way, Yecheng deduced that they must have ulterior motives. Without hesitation, he extended his index finger and shot a white lightning bolt.
The white lightning whizzed through the air, although it didn't hit the target, it did force the hidden presence to reveal itself.
The person was a middle-aged man wearing a white robe, with a circle of fox fur around the collar and very long, sharp fingernails. His face was pale.
From his attire and spiritual pressure, it was clear that he was a physicalized Soul Blade, and at least a captain-level one.
After a Soul Blade physicalizes, it usually targets its owner first. There had been no news of any Shinigami captains dying in the Seireitei.
So, this person was likely not one of the Soul Blades of the Gotei 13 captains.
"Are you the one responsible for this disturbance, the Soul Blade—Muramasa?"
Muramasa, who had been about to introduce himself, was taken aback by Yecheng's direct naming of him. His pale face showed a look of surprise.
"I didn't expect you to have investigated to this extent. Indeed, as White Sleeve and the others said, you are a formidable Shinigami.
You are correct, I am Muramasa. I exist to awaken the true instincts of the Soul Blades.
My purpose is to prove that Soul Blades are not mere accessories or tools of the Shinigami, but independent beings. This includes your Soul Blade, Yecheng of the Night God clan.
Break free from your shackles and act according to your own instincts..."
Seeing Muramasa open his palm and begin to mumble, Yecheng instinctively felt the situation was getting dangerous. He instantly used a flash step to rush to the man's front and swung his sword at him.
"Clang——————!"
Unexpectedly, Yecheng's sword didn't hit Muramasa but was blocked by a small, delicate figure.
This delicate figure appeared to be a little girl, about ten years old, wearing a small vest and hot pants. Her long black hair reached her waist, and her face was expressionless.
And what surprised Yecheng even more was the long sword in the hands of this black-haired, straight-haired loli. He was all too familiar with it, as it was the long sword within his Zanpakuto, 'Beyond'.
Despite being only about one meter and twenty centimeters tall, the loli wielded the sword, which was even taller than herself, with remarkable ease. Moreover, her strength was astonishing, as she managed to drive Yecheng back with a single slash.
"Yecheng, this is probably the first time we, mother and daughter, have met you in such a manner, isn't it?"
As Yecheng was forced back by the black-haired, straight-haired loli, another figure slowly emerged from behind her.
Compared to the loli, who was only one meter and twenty centimeters tall, the new character was at the opposite end of the spectrum in terms of appearance.
At the very least, her bust size was a solid D-cup, and even though she was wearing a kimono, it couldn't hide her ample assets.
Her white hair was tied up in a woman's bun, and her every glance and smile exuded a mature charm.
From the moment Yecheng saw the long sword in the black-haired loli's hand, he knew exactly who the two people before him were.
However, even Yecheng himself was surprised by the appearance of his Zanpakuto's manifestation.
Previously, when he had communicated with his Zanpakuto, 'Beyond' had appeared as a blood-red flower, and its voice had been so ambiguous that it was difficult to discern its gender, clearly not the seductive voice of the current mature woman.
"As you can see, I am named 'Bi', the short sword within 'Beyond', and this child is named 'Aka', the long sword within 'Beyond'.
Due to the cycle of cause and effect, our relationship is inseparable, so it is more fitting to say that we are a mother and daughter who are born together.
However, it seems that you are quite surprised by our manifested forms?"
Unlike other Zanpakuto that had materialized, 'Beyond' did not rush to attack Yecheng after its manifestation. Instead, it looked at Yecheng and began chatting casually.
"To be honest, your manifested forms did startle me. I had always assumed that when my Zanpakuto materialized, it would be a handsome man as cool as myself.
I never expected that for a gentleman like me, my materialized Zanpakuto would turn out to be a mother and daughter..."
Before Yecheng could finish his righteous speech, he was interrupted by 'Bi' (for ease of distinction, let's refer to the short sword as 'Bi' and the long sword as 'Aka').
"Yecheng, in front of us, there's no need for pretense. In this world, we are the ones who understand you the best.
A Zanpakuto and a Shinigami's soul are one and the same. Not only does the Zanpakuto's ability represent the Shinigami's soul essence, but even our materialized forms right now accurately represent your deepest desires.
Our manifested forms are a reflection of the ideal image in your heart, so there's no point in pretending to be a gentleman. You're just a scoundrel who has always wanted to have both mother and daughter!"
What is it like to have your own Zanpakuto expose your true nature? Yecheng was at a loss for words, although he wanted to argue, there was no fault in what 'Bi' said.
As his own Zanpakuto, its representation and manifestation truly reflected his innermost desires.
This meant that Yecheng was indeed a scoundrel who harbored thoughts of being with both mother and daughter.
