Chapter 104, Section 103: Division of Labor
To be honest, Shuichi Higashino was very dissatisfied with Kisuke Urahara's arrangements.
Even though it was because of him that the Kasumi clan's rebellion was brought to the fore, and that the Hollowfication appeared before the Shinigami ahead of time, the importance attached to this incident by the Central 46 and Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni was raised several levels.
This indirectly made it extremely difficult for Kisuke Urahara and his group to take Shinji Hirako and the other Hollowfied Shinigami, who had temporarily lost their ability to fight, to the human world for refuge.
But involving Matsumoto Rangiku in this is really going too far.
If it weren't for Soi Fon's personality, she definitely wouldn't have run away with them. Higashino Shuichi doesn't even doubt that Urahara Kisuke would use the names of Yoruichi Shihouin and Higashino Shuichi to trick Soi Fon into coming and helping them escape.
However, by the time Higashino Shuichi learned of this, Urahara Kisuke had already acted without informing him, just like Kisaragi Shusuke had done before.
Moreover, Matsumoto Rangiku herself did not express any objection, but only requested to meet with Ichimaru Gin before taking action.
Therefore, Higashino Shuichi could only tacitly approve of Urahara Kisuke's behavior.
Alone, with only a sword and a mask, Shuichi Higashino stood in the Seireitei, relatively close to the 11th Division, and released his spiritual pressure.
After forcing back the weaker Grim Reapers nearby, they quietly waited here to be surrounded and annihilated.
Yes, Kisuke Urahara's plan revolves around Shuichi Higashino, the Hollowfied Shinigami.
Only when Higashino Shuichi is in a state of ethereal transformation can he force Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni to order the Shinigami captains to focus their main attention on him.
After all, the threat posed by Higashino Shuichi is not merely the Hollowfication itself. To Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni, Higashino Shuichi's ability to channel the power of hell upon himself is a far more deadly threat to Soul Society.
Only in this way can Matsumoto Rangiku have an opportunity to steal the portal to the human world from the 12th Division barracks, which has just lost its captain and vice-captain and is temporarily leaderless.
As for Urahara Kisuke and the others' job, it was to stop the two Grim Reapers that Higashino Shuichi was absolutely unable to deal with given his current strength.
"So, you two think you can take on me?"
A spiritual pressure descended upon Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni, and Urahara Kisuke, still wearing his captain's haori, and the great demon priest Kishiryu Tessai suddenly appeared.
"We wouldn't call it a fight, Captain, but if it's just to hold them off for a while, I think the two of us combined can manage."
Kisuke Urahara wore a smile, looking confident and showing no fear of facing the strongest Shinigami.
"is it?"
Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni unleashed his spiritual pressure, shattering the earth.
"Looks like just the intangibility of a few captains has made you arrogant, Kisuke!"
The spiritual pressure surged forth, destroying everything in its path upon contact, leveling all things to the ground.
Slay him!
Almost at the same moment, Kyoraku Shunsui, the captain of the Eighth Division, who had just received the order from the Captain-Commander and was slowly walking out of the Eighth Division's barracks, suddenly stopped in his tracks.
"Master Yoruichi, head of the Shihouin family, you wouldn't happen to be here to catch up with me, would you?"
On the wall of the Eighth Division barracks, Yoruichi Shihōin, having removed her captain's haori and donned a tight-fitting ninja uniform, leaped down. "You were right, Shunsui. With your intelligence, I think it wouldn't be hard for you to see that there are too many suspicious things in this matter, would it?"
Yoruichi Shihōin had no intention of making a move, but she also remained on guard, maintaining a certain distance from Shunsui Kyōraku.
"So what if I have it? Yoruichi,"
Kyoraku Shunsui raised his left hand to lift the straw hat on his head, then turned to look at Shihouin Yoruichi.
“You should know very well that if you did nothing tonight, there would still be a chance for things to turn around. But you chose this sensitive time to attack the Maggot's Nest, releasing Urahara Kisuke and Tsukasashi Tessai from inside. You even released the seal on Higashino Shuichi's Zanpakuto without the Captain-Commander's permission. I don't need to tell you how dangerous the power that man possesses is, do I?”
"The head of the Kabuto family said she would help control it."
And if I do nothing tonight, what will the person behind it all do?
His target was Kisuke. If I hadn't made the first move tonight, tomorrow we might have received devastating news about Kisuke.
Yoruichi Shihōin shook her head, disagreeing with Kyōraku Shunsui's statement.
"It's the same now, Yoruichi. You don't naively think that as long as you leave me here, you and Kisuke Urahara can leave safely tonight, do you?"
A glint of wisdom flashed in Kyoraku Shunsui's eyes.
"If I'm not mistaken, those Hollowfied Shinigami are probably all incapacitated right now, right?"
"Higashino Shuichi was just bait, drawing the attention of all our captains so you could achieve another goal. I bet it's the portal placed inside the Twelfth Division, right?"
Yoruichi Shihouin did not answer, but at that moment, silence was the best answer.
Kyoraku Shunsui knew he had guessed correctly. "But Yoruichi, have you considered that while your plan seems fine on the surface, it faces a very serious problem in practice?"
So, how do you four possibly hold out until the interdimensional gate opens for you?
The current Soul Society only suffers from a sharp decrease in captains, not a sharp decrease in captain-level combat power.
After hearing Kyoraku Shunsui's words, Shihouin Yoruichi became even more silent.
She didn't know how she and Kisuke Urahara had come to believe Shuichi Higashino's lie that "as long as we can help him stop the Captain-Commander and Shunsui Kyoraku, he can definitely hold them off for a while."
But now that things have come to this, all she can do is trust Higashino Shuichi. Otherwise, she will have to abandon Hirako Shinji and the others, and take Urahara Kisuke, Tsukabishi Tessai, and Higashino Shuichi—these few people who still retain their rationality and have some fighting ability—to hide and then find an opportunity to escape to the real world.
Because once tonight is over, the Shihōin family will inevitably be investigated, and apart from the Shihōin family, where else can we find a place to hide Shinji Hirako and the others without worrying about them suddenly rioting?
But if we give up on Shinji Hirako and the others, wouldn't that mean that all of Kisuke Urahara's efforts so far have been in vain?
"No matter what the outcome, Chunshui, I hope you can stay here with me and wait."
Finally, under the desolate night sky, Yoruichi Shihouin said those words to Shunsui Kyoraku.
Kyoraku Shunsui readily agreed.
"After all, I want her to live too."
Hidden in Kyoraku Shunsui's unspoken words was his deep apology to his vice-captain, Yadomaru Lisa.
If he hadn't hesitated for a moment and had instead asked Yadomaru Lisa to come with him, then perhaps Yadomaru Lisa wouldn't be in this state of uncertainty, her fate unknown.
Therefore, even without Yoruichi Shihouin's actions tonight, as long as it was confirmed that Kisuke Urahara and the others were truly focused on escaping and did not intend to continue harming Soul Society, Shunsui Kyoraku was originally planning to let them go.
