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

Chapter 274, Section 272: Unexpectedly Becoming a Father?
Everything is ready; all that's left is to wait.

Higashino Shuichi waited for Yoruichi Shihouin to come to him, while occasionally enjoying blissful moments with Masako Kabuto.

Until Higashino Shuichi suddenly discovered something amazing: Hinamori Momo was already the lieutenant of the Fifth Division, and Shiba Isshin had been tricked by Aizen into coming to the human world.

Logically speaking, if everything returns to normal, the captain of the 10th Division should now be Toshiro Hitsugaya.

However, the current captain of the 10th Division is not Toshiro Hitsugaya, but Shusuke Kisaragi.

Toshiro Hitsugaya is actually just a first-year student at the Shinigami Academy.

"Can Kisaragi Shusuke also be a captain?"

That night, Higashino Shuichi lay in bed, holding Kabuto Sayaka, who had just come out of the bath and was still steaming hot, and asked her a question.

"Why can't he be the captain? With Shusuke's abilities, he's more than qualified to be a captain."

Kabuto Sayaka asked, puzzled.

"Because of me!"

What is the relationship between Shusuke and me? Which of those nobles and the captains of the Gotei 13 doesn't know?
Is it really possible to appoint Shusuke as the captain?

"I think it would be more reasonable for Madarame Ikkaku of the 11th Division to be the captain of the 10th Division than for Shusuke to be the captain."

Higashino Shuichi really couldn't figure out what Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni was thinking.

The position of captain of the 10th Division is extremely important, as it concerns the security of most of the Rukongai in Soul Society, as well as the outer defense of Seireitei.

Is it really okay to put someone like Kisaragi Shusuke in this position?
"Um"

Asayako Kabuto let out a soft moan as Higashino Shuichi's right hand reached downwards, her body, now covered in mud, slumped limply in his arms, her face flushed.

"Captain-Commander Yamamoto initially disagreed as well."
It was many minor nobles who, within the Central Forty-Six Chambers, made the suggestion.

"What do you mean?"

Higashino Hideichi gave Sayako in his arms a meaningful smile and deliberately stopped what he was doing.

Masayako Kabuto also bit her rosy lips, unwilling to continue, and only said in a coquettish tone,
"Shuichi~
It's late at night~

"Yes, it's late, time for a midnight snack!"

After Higashino finished speaking, he pulled the blanket up, and soon the room began to shake violently.

There was really no need to say anything more about Kabuto Sayaka; Higashino Shuichi guessed that this was probably an opportunity for the minor nobles to curry favor with Kabuto Sayaka.

After all, there are some things that many people are afraid to do, even if you don't want to.

That's only human nature.

However, compared to Kisaragi Shusuke's position as captain of the 10th Division, Hitsugaya Toshiro has only been studying at the Shinigami Academy for a little over a year, which is the strangest thing.

Because if the original timeline were followed, Toshiro Hitsugaya should have already become the captain of the 10th Division by now.

Is it the butterfly effect?
Or was it the Spirit King's will that deliberately did this?
Since he had nothing better to do anyway, Higashino Shuichi figured he might as well go see this genius Grim Reaper for himself tomorrow.

After a night of turmoil, Masayoko Kabuto had absolutely no energy to get up early the next day.

Higashino Shuichi, on the other hand, left Kabuto's house quietly, looking refreshed.

The location of the True Spiritual Arts Academy is still the same place I remember, without any change.

However, when Higashino Shuichi arrived, the place seemed rather deserted.

"The morning classes at the True Spiritual Arts Academy should have already started by now, right?"

Based on his limited memories, Higashino Shuichi deduced that something was amiss at the current Shinigami Academy.

There are too few people!

In this situation, the normal choice would be to ask a passerby for directions.

However, Shuichi Higashino clearly had a better option.

"So these days are their time for practical learning in the real world?"

Sitting on the windowsill of the teachers' lounge at the Shinigami Academy, Higashino Shuichi looked at the bespectacled male teacher inside and spoke.

"Yeah, judging from your confused look, I can tell that you've been away from school for too long and have forgotten about this?"

The male teacher answered with a smile.

He was able to directly name Higashino Shuichi because he knew Higashino Shuichi, who was the captain of the Fifth Division, Aizen Sousuke.

As a powerful Shinigami with keen insight, Aizen had long foreseen the future development trend of Soul Society, and that ordinary Shinigami would become the main force of the Gotei 13 in the future.

Therefore, becoming a teacher at the Shinigami Academy would greatly benefit Aizen by allowing him to learn about the Zanpakuto abilities of talented commoner Shinigami in advance.

This allows for targeted arrangements when formulating future plans.

After all, who would be wary of a kind and caring teacher?
"I think it's because you've been in school for too long, Lord Aizen, that you've forgotten the curriculum at our Shinigami Academy."

Back then, Hueco Mundo hadn't yet fallen under Aizen's control.
The genie back then was nowhere near as obedient as the genie of today!

How can it be so simple to drive those virtual creatures to a specific location at a specific time while ensuring that their combat power does not exceed the limit?
So back then, from first to third grade, we didn't have any such internship courses. Only fourth-grade students and above had that opportunity once a year!

Higashino Shuichi shook his head and said.

After saying that, he jumped down from the windowsill and stood outside, asking Aizen, who was inside with his back turned, a question.
"Lord Aizen, you don't have any plans for this practical activity, do you?"

There was no response from behind.

That's the best response.

Without even turning around, Higashino Shuichi could guess that Aizen, behind the table, must be wearing his signature fake smile at that moment.

Aizen must have made some arrangements.

This is beyond doubt.
Higashino Shuichi felt that if he were in Aizen's position, he would do the same.

After all, Toshiro Hitsugaya is a true genius. Although he is still a bit inferior to someone like Gin Ichimaru, he is only comparable to Gin Ichimaru.

Compared to the other 99% of Shinigami, Toshiro Hitsugaya is a target worth paying attention to.

Especially his Zanpakuto abilities and his potential.

Higashino Shuichi felt that if he were Aizen, he would definitely try to find out by any means necessary.

And it will definitely be tested before Hitsugaya Toshiro graduates from school.

After all, once you're in a squad, attacking Toshiro Hitsugaya would be a blow to the entire squad's reputation.

If Hitsugaya Toshiro had joined one of his own squads, like the 5th, 3rd, or 9th Division, that would have been fine. But what if Hitsugaya Toshiro ended up joining a squad like the 10th or 4th Division?
Higashino Shuichi felt that even if Aizen was arrogant, he should still consider the consequences of his actions.

Pushing Higashino Shuichi to the opposite side prematurely is not a good choice.

Not to mention, Aizen isn't that arrogant now.

Meanwhile, there's Toshiro Hitsugaya, who has postponed his entry into the Shinigami Academy; Masaki Kurosaki, who is still single-mindedly pursuing a relationship with Shiba; Kisuke Urahara, who is secretly hiding in the human world; and Sousuke Aizen, who is looking to cause trouble.
Okay, Shuichi Higashino has already imagined a whole drama unfolding in his mind.

He even had a vague feeling that this might be a correction plan arranged by the Spirit King himself.

Do you want Masaki Kurosaki to take this opportunity to finally get together with Isshin Shiba?
"Hmm, it's not that this is impossible? Doesn't that mean..."

After some thought, Higashino Shuichi felt that this matter seemed quite likely.

And if things really develop this way, wouldn't that mean he might not even need to find Yoruichi Shihouin to have a chance to find Kisuke Urahara?
After all, if either Isshin Shiba or Masaki Kurosaki were to get into trouble, it would certainly not be the outcome Kisuke Urahara wanted.

In other words, Kisuke Urahara will definitely be secretly watching the battle from the sidelines.

If Kisuke Urahara dares to show up, with Shuichi Higashino's current strength, would he be afraid of not being able to detect Kisuke Urahara's whereabouts?
So, about ten minutes later, in the basement of the Twelfth Division's captain's rest room,
Mayuri Kurotsuchi, who was conducting an experiment, met the travel-worn Shuichi Higashino, and his lips twitched slightly beneath his mask.

"Although I know you'll definitely come back someday, isn't this kind of return ceremony a bit inappropriate?"

Mayuri Kurotsuchi's hands didn't stop moving, but his mindset had already undergone a slight change.

Just moments ago, the layers of defense matrices he had set up between the underground laboratory and the captain's lounge on the surface hadn't even had time to reach him with the alarms.

It was violently demolished by Higashino Shuichi in a flash of lightning.

"I didn't want too many people to know I came back this time. Who knows if you somehow managed to connect some of the alarm systems in the middle to the First Division or other divisions? Dismantling them all would obviously be safer."

Higashino Shuichi clapped his hands and said very calmly.

Then, with his left hand slightly to the left, the Binding Path of Number 81 on the first floor appeared out of thin air, and a small Zanpakuto was stopped in mid-air.

"Is this the artificial human you created using the technological expertise I provided?"

Higashino Shuichi asked, feigning ignorance.

Because the female Shinigami who wanted to ambush him was none other than Nemu, the android from the original storyline.

She is also jokingly referred to as Mayuri Kurotsuchi's daughter.

He was also the former vice-captain of the 12th Division.

But right now, he should be the third seat of the 12th Division.

After all, as long as Shimao Ouko doesn't do anything reckless, his position as vice-captain should be unshakeable.

"Her? I guess so."

Mayuri Kurotsuchi glanced at the female Grim Reaper who had ambushed Shuichi Higashino and said in a nonchalant tone,
"Oh, right, Yinmeng, he is Higashino Shuichi, the real deal."

Mayuri Kurotsuchi added a final remark that left Shuichi Higashino completely baffled.

What does it mean to say "He is Higashino Shuichi"?
Is it necessary to introduce Mayuri Kurotsuchi in this way?

Just as Higashino Shuichi was feeling bewildered, he suddenly sensed that the female Grim Reaper beside him had undergone a complete change in aura.

"Father?"

"Father?!"

Higashino Shuichi was completely bewildered. Why would Nemu call him father?
Of course, what confused him even more was the attack that Nemuremura launched against him next.

"Hado No. 4, Wind - White Lightning!"

A completely invisible bolt of white lightning shot out from Nie Yinmeng's fingertip and then dispersed in mid-air.

It felt familiar, but ordinary Shinigami couldn't sense White Lightning in this state, so it was a piece of cake for Higashino Shuichi.

The enormous difference in spiritual pressure between him and Nie Yinmeng was enough to completely negate any petty tricks.

So Higashino Shuichi simply stretched out his left hand again and crushed all the invisible lightning bolts.

However, Nemu's attack was not over yet. Since Nemu did not have a Zanpakuto, it was a slashing technique performed by swinging her hand blades.
"Cut the moon into pieces!"

Higashino Shuichi leaped high into the air, dodging Nemu's attack.

But I was already horrified.

This damn sense of familiarity!
However, above Higashino Shuichi, there was another move waiting for him.

"Spiritual Child, Wind, Demonic Path Burial!"

Suddenly, countless spirit beings who had long since merged with their surroundings appeared around Higashino Hideichi. Then, at the same moment, they collectively unleashed the strongest Kido they could use against Higashino Hideichi.

It's the same move that Higashino Shuichi used before, and Nemu even thoughtfully gave it a new name.

No, that's not right. Can someone like Nie Yinmeng really still be called Nie Yinmeng?

As Higashino Shuichi gazed at the countless demonic paths hurtling towards him, he suddenly fell into deep thought.

A horrific explosion occurred in this underground laboratory.

Fortunately, space technology is one of Mayuri Kurotsuchi's most prized technologies. Given Nemu Kurotsuchi's spiritual pressure, it would be quite difficult for her to destroy Mayuri Kurotsuchi's laboratory.

For Shuichi Higashino, it was even more difficult.

Even though Higashino Shuichi gave up resisting and fell into deep thought at the last moment, he was still unharmed after the dust settled.

This is the huge difference in spiritual pressure between the two.

However, seeing Nemu looking at him expectantly, Higashino Shuichi couldn't help but turn and look at Mayuri Kurotsuchi.

"What on earth did you do?"

Mayuri Kurotsuchi was also very open and honest, acting as if he were completely unfazed.
"They didn't do much. The android project did progress smoothly at first because of the research on modifying souls, but they had a fatal problem: they were too weak."

Moreover, unlike ordinary Shinigami, they have no chance to awaken their own Zanpakuto.

Until one day, I had a sudden inspiration and incorporated your genes into it, making them the dominant ones.

The result was a success. Nemu, who possessed most of your genes, did not awaken her own Zanpakuto, but she was born with the same Zanpakuto ability as you.

Unfortunately, I have only succeeded in this one case so far, and I don't have any other Death God genes that can reproduce the miracle of Nemuro.

"So, what is she doing?"

Higashino Shuichi was almost speechless by Mayuri Kurotsuchi. This kind of thing probably only happens in a world like this.

"I don't know, but I guess she's trying to show you her abilities and gain your approval."

"Because I have backups of all your past deeds, Yinmeng goes through them almost every day before going to sleep."

Mayuri Kurotsuchi explained.

For him, this was nothing, because Yinmeng was at most an unexpectedly successful product.

However, for Higashino Shuichi, Nemu Nigiri's existence is now slightly special.

"You're amazing, Nemuru!"

Higashino Shuichi looked at Nemuro and said solemnly.

As expected, the latter gave Higashino Shuichi a bright smile after listening.

"Thank you, Father!"
