Bleach: No cheat codes, he joined Aizen's side.

Chapter 237, Section 235: To die by my blade is your honor.

"Is it finally Masato Miyazaki, the former captain of the 12th Division?"

Yushima Oshi, who was sitting on a large rock on the beach, idly tossing stones across the sea, suddenly jumped off the rock excitedly and shouted loudly to Kisaragi Shusuke, who was standing not far away enjoying the salty sea breeze.

Because Shimao knew that Kisaragi Shusuke had met Miyazaki Sakai Masato.

What he didn't know was that Kisaragi Shusuke had only met him once. Before he could even spar with Miyazaki Sakai Masato, Higashino Shuichi suddenly arrived and called him back to the Higashizumi Bureau.

"I don't know, but Lord Xiuyi must have the answer. Let's go find him!"

Kisaragi Shusuke truthfully gave Yujima Ouko his answer, and then the two quickly arrived outside Higashino Shuichi's room.

When they arrived, Matsumoto Rangiku and Nagasawa Satomi were already waiting outside Higashino Shuichi's room.

"Hey~ Ou Xu and Xiu Zhu, what brings you two here together today?"

I was just about to look for you guys, this saves me a lot of trouble!

Matsumoto Rangiku was the first to greet the two of them.

"Why would you ask such a question? Rangiku, didn't you feel that spiritual pressure?"

Yujima Ouko looked at Matsumoto Rangiku with a puzzled expression.

At the same time, Kisaragi Shusuke also looked at Nagasawa Satomi, who was half a step behind Rangiku.
"Satomi, didn't you feel it either?"

Originally just a human, Satomi Nagasawa, as a Fullbringer with mediocre talent, naturally couldn't have mastered any advanced spiritual pressure sensing techniques. However, after going to the Soul Society and undergoing spiritualization modifications to her body through the Dangai, Satomi Nagasawa is now, strictly speaking, half a Shinigami.

But both Matsumoto Rangiku and Nagasawa Satomi gave the same confused shake of their heads.

"what happened?

Has something happened?

Satomi Nagasawa realized something was wrong and asked Shusuke Kisaragi about it.

Just as Kisaragi Shusuke was about to answer, Higashino Shuichi's door suddenly opened, and his voice came from inside.
"No need for explanations, this matter might be a bit complicated, so please come in now!"

Upon hearing this, Yushima Ouko and Kisaragi Shusuke exchanged a rare, knowing glance, both of them seeing a hint of confusion in each other's eyes.

Soon, Kisaragi Shusuke and the others entered Higashino Shuichi's room one after the other. Kisaragi Shusuke had originally planned to ask Higashino Shuichi what his current situation was.

However, the woman on Higashino Shuichi's left, dressed in a somewhat perverse and revealing manner with an explosive figure, instantly caught his attention.

As someone who had followed Higashino Shuichi for a long time, Kisaragi Shusuke had naturally seen the materialized form of Higashino Shuichi's Zanpakuto. It was a middle-aged man with a very scholarly appearance, definitely not a woman. Therefore, since this woman could sit on Higashino Shuichi's left and right sides respectively, it was clear that...
Shouldn't it be.
Kisaragi Shusuke's gaze unconsciously swept towards Matsumoto Rangiku to his side and behind him, and sure enough, he found that the latter's expression was a little stiff.

And just as Kisaragi Shusuke quickly withdrew his gaze, his eyes met those of Yujima Oshu, who had just turned her gaze away from Matsumoto Rangiku.

Well, it seems everyone's thoughts on this are surprisingly aligned.
"cough cough"

Then came the short cough of Higashino Shuichi.

They were all standing right in front of Higashino Shuichi, yet they were still making such blatant and overt eye contact. Did they really think Higashino Shuichi was blind?
There was no doubt that these people had misunderstood something, so Higashino Shuichi felt it necessary to explain to them again.
"This is Amatsu Takuro, the materialized Zanpakuto of Kenpachi Azajo, the former captain of the 11th Division of Soul Society. She helped me a lot when we were still in Soul Society. I brought her here this time to give us an extra layer of insurance."

"So it's still a Zanpakuto?"

Matsumoto Rangiku finally breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this, because if it was a Zanpakuto, and someone else's Zanpakuto at that, then there was nothing to worry about!

This is the perfect time to have a good drink!

"So that terrifying spiritual pressure from before was emitted by her?"

It has to be Kisaragi Shusuke. He has long since passed the age of being naive and innocent. Now, his Dao heart is hardly attracted by other external things. With just a few words, he brought the topic back on track.

Unfortunately, he received a negative answer from Shuichi Higashino.
"No, in fact, Yulu Tuoru has only been here for a short time. After all, it is a Zanpakuto, and it can't pass through the special 'tunnel' made by the Tsunayashiro family that allows one to sneak through the Dangai like an ordinary Shinigami. It can only find opportunities to follow those Shinigami who are going to come to the human world and pass through the same gate."

Not to mention doing something as incredibly stupid as what just happened.

He has nowhere in this world to assert sovereignty.

"Then, sir, what was that powerful spiritual pressure that Yujima Oshi and I just felt?"

Higashino Shuichi's words only made Kisaragi Shusuke more confused.

"Powerful spiritual pressure? What powerful spiritual pressure?"

Upon hearing Kisaragi Shusuke's explanation, Matsumoto Rangiku, who was positioned diagonally behind him, widened her eyes in disbelief and said...
"No way, I haven't really trained much since I came to the mortal world, so how come my spiritual sense has weakened as a result?"

Matsumoto Rangiku closed her eyes, trying to sense the powerful spiritual pressure emanating from Kisaragi Shusuke, but naturally failed.

She couldn't sense any special or powerful spiritual pressure at all.

If Matsumoto Rangiku hadn't been absolutely certain that Kisaragi Shusuke was arrogant enough to lie in front of his most respected Lord Shuichi, she would have suspected that Kisaragi Shusuke was just teasing her!

So what's the situation now? Is the sake in the human world more harmful than that in Soul Society?
Fortunately, just when Matsumoto Rangiku was about to become so withdrawn that she questioned the meaning of life, Higashino Hideaki explained things to everyone present.

"It's a selection process. The person who released this spiritual pressure used a very special method, which means that only Shinigami with a spiritual pressure level or higher can sense his presence. This is a blatant provocation!"

Well, Matsumoto Rangiku felt that she would have been better off not hearing this explanation at all. Why did she feel even more uncomfortable after hearing it? So it meant that her spiritual pressure was low?
"So, the person who came wasn't that Masato Miyazaki?"

Yujima Oshi didn't notice Matsumoto Rangiku's somewhat stiff expression, and instead rested her chin on her hand as she spoke.

Given Masato Miyazaki's status and position, unless he was prepared to fight the entire Soul Society alone, he would not have acted so recklessly.

This is truly contradictory compared to Masato Miyazaki's past actions.

Moreover, the instructions from Tsunayoshiro Kanbara have not yet been passed on from Higashino Shuichi. From Miyazaki Sakai Masato's perspective, he would never know that the Tsunayoshiro family needs him to come and make a big splash right now.

"Yes, although I, like you, really hoped that this person was Masato Miyazaki, to be honest, this uninvited guest is not the opponent we had expected. Moreover, the timing of his arrival is also terrible. If he had come earlier, the situation wouldn't be as troublesome as it is now."

Higashino Shuichi nodded to Shima Osho as he spoke.

"It's because the large spiritual pressure shielding barrier we set up earlier has taken effect?"

This person's provocative tactics were affected by our shielding barrier, rendering them ineffective outside the barrier. Has this meant that what should have been the work of the Soul Reapers to handle this particular individual has become our job?

Kisaragi Shusuke immediately grasped the crux of the matter and quickly shared his thoughts with Higashino Shuichi.

"But sir, what if we close the barrier now?"
"If it weren't for Masato Miyazaki, we wouldn't need to waste our energy on this person at all."

Kisaragi Shusuke's suggestion immediately received support from most of the people present, including Matsumoto Rangiku and Yujima Ouko.

But this does not include Shuichi Higashino.

"That's true, but Xiuzhu, have you thought about the consequences of doing this?"
In order to avoid one problem, you have brought us an even bigger one. Given the personality traits this person has shown so far, how can you guarantee that he won't choose this place as the main battlefield for his war against the Shinigami of Soul Society?
If things really develop this way, wouldn't all our previous efforts and the traps we deliberately set here be wasted?

Furthermore, even if we take a step back and assume that Masato Miyazaki happens to arrive at this exact moment, should we reactivate the barrier or not?
No matter what we choose, we will completely expose ourselves to the Soul Society's scrutiny.

In short, in Higashino Shuichi's view, they have no better way to deal with this damn problem than to solve it themselves.

"Let's treat this as a small warm-up before the big battle!"
"Sir, I have absolutely no problem on my end. Leave this man to me this time!"

After listening to Higashino Shuichi's explanation, Yujima Osho didn't quite understand the logic. However, as far as he was concerned, if Shuichi said no, Yujima Osho would never disagree.

Coincidentally, his hands had been itching for a while lately, so having a small meal replacement before indulging in a feast like Masato Miyazaki's work was a pretty good option for him.

However, what saddened Yujima Oshi was that Hideichi decisively rejected her self-recommendation.

“Ou Xu, you can’t do it. This time, let Xiu Zhu go, and you can assist and act as a safety net.”

This wasn't because Higashino Shuichi was specifically targeting Yujima Oshu, but because Higashino Shuichi was very certain that his opponent this time was a Shinigami. At least with Higashino Shuichi's current level of being a Shinigami, Hollow, and Quincy, he could sense from that special spiritual pressure that the power of a Shinigami was the majority.

If the opponent is a Shinigami (death god), then having Kisaragi Shusuke take action would be the most appropriate choice.

After all, Kisaragi Shusuke's Baku Yaotō Bankai can directly seal the release of a Shinigami's Zanpakutō. As long as the difference in spiritual pressure between the two Shinigami is not too great, the one who can release their Zanpakutō will definitely have an absolute advantage.

Asuka Shusuke understood perfectly; he knew that Lord Shuichi wanted him to finish the battle quickly.

At the very least, it shouldn't affect the subsequent arrival of Masato Miyazaki.

So, just as the strange man was falling from the height in confusion, ready to figure out why the Shinigami of Soul Society were so slow to react, a knife suddenly appeared in front of him.

"Divide the moon, cut with a single character!"

A dark shadow flashed by, and the man, with an unpredictable instantaneous movement, appeared atop the beam of a wooden house by the street. Looking at the steel bridge behind him, now severed in half, he sighed.
"I knew it! How could there be no reaction at all? Turns out they were trying to sneak over here!"
"Indeed, centuries have passed, and it seems your thinking hasn't become too outdated. I used to think you'd be led astray under Yamamoto Shigekuni, but it seems I was wrong!"

"Yamamoto Shigekuni."

Kisaragi Shusuke repeated the name. Generally speaking, few people would use such a name to address the Captain-Commander. For Shinigami of the new era like Kisaragi Shusuke, there is only one name for the Captain-Commander, which is Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni. Those who would omit the middle three characters and directly call him Yamamoto Shigekuni are basically only Shinigami of the same era as the Captain-Commander.

Therefore, the identity of the man in front of us seems to have become somewhat clear.

"You're also one of the original captains?"

Kisaragi Shusuke gripped his Baku sword tightly and asked solemnly.

"Hahaha, judging from your attitude, I guess that the idiot Nigu Caizang has most likely failed, right?"
Tell me, was he captured alive or killed by you?
I hope you don't tell me you let that idiot get away; that would be such a shame!

After laughing a few times, the man asked Ruyue Xiuzhu a question.

When Kisaragi Shusuke first heard this, he was also a little confused. Was this person hiding with that rebellious person?
Why does this man seem like he's hoping for trouble by hiding his rebellious nature?
"My answer should make you happy. We killed Nigu Caizang, leaving only an empty shell of a spirit."

As they spoke, Kisaragi Shusuke had already attacked the man more than ten times, but each time, the man dodged with great skill. His knife couldn't even touch the man's clothes.

Is this the strength of the first captain?
Kisaragi Shusuke was somewhat surprised. So how did Yujima Oshu and that rebellious guy manage to hide in the special place of Dankai for so long and wait for Shuichi's support?
(Yushima Ou: "Who are you subtly dissing here?")
"Really? That's a very pleasant answer indeed. That stupid pig deserved to end up like that."

Then I should give you a reward for being so obedient~

With another effortless leap, the man dodged Kisaragi Shusuke's attack once more, landing atop a taller house.

"To die by the hand of my Hisamii Enetsu is an honor for you!"
