From Pirates to the Strongest Death God in Soul Society

Chapter 439: Is Mayuri Kurotsuchi in jail under my command?

The entrance to the prison is very ordinary, there is not even any plaque, it is just a big gate.

However, this door requires key authentication to open. It can also be opened by forced blasting, but it will instantly arouse the vigilance of the 12th and 9th squads.

Bane had obtained the key at the court meeting before, so he entered the prison unimpeded.

"The underground prison has a total of eight floors, which hold many criminals from the Soul Society. They are divided according to their crimes and sentences, and are widely referred to as the 'Eight Hot Hells'." Okiga Genshiro introduced as he followed Bane.

This is the advantage of having a senior Death God as your deputy captain. He can help you solve any difficult problems.

"This first level is called 'Resurrection Hell'. Most of the prisoners there are people with less serious crimes, most of them are members of the Gotei 13," said Okiga Genshiro.

The eight hot hells are the Hell of Resurrection, the Hell of Black Ropes, the Hell of All Hells, the Hell of Wailing, the Hell of Great Wailing, the Hell of Heat, the Hell of Extreme Heat, and the Hell of Avici.

If Bane remembered correctly, the great demon priest, Wuling Tessai, once used two forbidden techniques, "Time Stop" and "Space Transfer", in order to save the captain who was ambushed by Aizen and turned into a hollow. He was then sentenced by the Central Forty-Six Chambers to be imprisoned in the third level of hell, "United Hell".

Of course, he later escaped to the human world with Urahara Kisuke and did not actually go to jail.

While Okiga Genshiro was introducing Bane, Bane was also holding the list of prisoners currently in custody.

Inspecting down layer by layer, when he reached the third layer of Hell, Bane suddenly stopped and looked at the list in his hand with a slightly surprised expression.

"Prisoner of Unova Hell, Mayuri Kurotsuchi, has one hundred and thirty-six years left on his sentence." Bane murmured in his heart as he looked at the description.

Mayuri Kurotsuchi. Later captain of Division 12 and mad scientist of Soul Society.

If I remember correctly, he was indeed imprisoned, but my impression is that he was imprisoned in the Maggot Nest of the Second Division, right?
The reason why the internal structure of the Second Division is very complicated, like a smaller version of the Gotei 13, is because this team has very high authority, and it is responsible for assassinations, intelligence investigations, prisons, internal monitoring of Shinigami, etc.

He can be called the King's Guard of Seireitei.

The Maggot's Nest is a prison facility within the Second Squad. What makes it even more terrifying than the big prison is that the prisoners in the big prison have all been formally convicted, have prison terms, and have gone through the necessary procedures.

The maggot nest is like an imperial prison. No matter whether you are guilty or not, as long as I judge that you are a potential threat, I can lock you up directly.

That is to say, "Void Conviction". This was what happened to Mayuri Kurotsuchi in the beginning. He didn't do anything wrong. It was just because they were worried that he might commit a crime in the future that the Second Division captured him and locked him up in a maggot nest.

This shows how powerful the Second Division’s authority is.

As expected, it is controlled by the warlord Shifengyuan family.

Bane always thought that Mayuri Kurotsuchi had not yet been born, but he did not expect that this guy was now imprisoned in Unova Hell.

But on second thought, it was true. As far as I could remember, after Shutra Senjumaru came out of the Soul King Palace, she went to the 12th Division. Judging from her tone at that time, she seemed to have an impression of Kurotsuchi Mayuri. The two should know each other.

Judging from this aspect, it is reasonable to think that Kurotsuchi Mayuri is a very senior god of death.

Thinking of this, Bane opened the prisoner file of Kurotsuchi Mayuri and flipped through a few pages.

Hmm. The former fourth seat of the Tenth Division, and one of Shutara Senjumaru's subordinates. No wonder he knows him.

He committed a crime and went to Rukongai to handle security affairs. When suppressing the riot in Rukongai, he used a meat bomb he developed personally, killing seven members of the 10th Squad Death Squad. Later, his private laboratory was discovered in the 10th Squad barracks, and there was solid evidence that he used the civilians of Rukongai to conduct various inhumane human experiments. He was eventually sent to the Central 46th Room for trial by Shutara Senjumaru and was sentenced to go to Unusual Hell for two hundred years. Sixty-four years have passed since then.

"It turns out that the behavior of these scientists is rather crazy," Bane sighed as he looked at Kurotsuchi Mayuri's information.

Vegapunk still behaves like a human being, Dr. Genos conducts experiments on monsters, Caesar does all kinds of stupid things, and Orochimaru doesn't even consider himself a human being.

This Nirvana is no less capable than others.

According to this process, it is estimated that after Kurotsuchi Mayuri finishes serving his sentence in the underground prison and is released, he will immediately be under close observation by the Second Division. Undoubtedly, Kurotsuchi Mayuri will not stop his pursuit of "scientific research", and he must have done something again.

However, before he could carry out these "harms", he was identified as an extremely dangerous person by the Second Squad and was directly captured and locked up in the Maggot Nest.

Come to think of it, Mayuri Kurotsuchi was released from the Second Division because Urahara Kisuke saw his talent. He became the deputy director of the first Technical Development Bureau and the third seat of the Twelfth Division.

If Kurotsuchi Mayuri had never shown any talent before and had been in jail all the time, how could Urahara Kisuke have discovered his talent?
It must be that he has performed well and committed crimes, which is why he is favored.

"Is Lord Lingzun interested in this guy?" Okiya Genshiro asked curiously.

"Yeah, a little bit." Bane nodded.

Speaking of which, Soul Society is in a state of chaos right now regarding research and development and other matters.

Because there is no unified technology development bureau, all kinds of messy scientific research are "blooming everywhere". The Maou Spiritual Academy has its own academy research institute, and Urahara Kisuke used to be a researcher there.

In the 12th Division, I heard that Hikifune Kiryu also has her own research laboratory, and has been studying the souls of the gods of death. The subsequent technologies such as the righteous soul and temporary soul were developed by Hikifune Kiryu. With this technology, she was directly absorbed into the Zero Division.

Mayuri Kurotsuchi set up a private laboratory in the basement of the 10th Squad's barracks, specializing in conducting inhumane and illegal experiments.

If I remember correctly, there seems to be a messy scientific research laboratory in the second team.

There are also some related research institutes in the Mao Pharmacy Institute in the aristocratic district.

In short, this aspect was very chaotic, and there was no unified management. It was not until Hikifune Kiryu ascended to the Soul King Palace and Urahara Kisuke took over as the captain of the 12th Division and officially established the Technology Development Bureau that all the strange laboratories and scientific researchers in the Soul Society were integrated into this unit. "Do we need to go see him?" Okiga Genshiro asked again.

"No need." Ben shook his head and said, "He still has more than a hundred years left in his sentence. There will be plenty of opportunities to take care of him in the future. I personally prefer these crazy scientists. Just improve his prison conditions within the rules."

As the captain of the 9th Division, Bane holds the power of life and death over the entire prison, so Shudorashi Senjumaru calls this division "powerful and influential".

Not to mention that it is within the prison rules, even if Bane transfers Kurotsuchi Mayuri directly to the "most comfortable" resurrection hell, it is also possible. Bane can even reduce their sentences on the grounds of "good prisoner behavior"!

Okiga Genshiro didn't say anything that Ben didn't like to hear, and immediately nodded and agreed, "Yes, I'll do it later."

Without spending too long on the third floor, Bane soon inspected the several prison floors behind.

Generally speaking, except for the special one Wu Jian, the rest of the underground prisons are normal prisons.

Muhena is an infinitely overlapping prison space, where most of the prisoners are those who have committed serious crimes in the millions of years of history of Soul Society. Previously, Saito Fuumaobushi, Indestructible King and others were all imprisoned in Muhena.

Currently, there are still more than twenty prisoners recorded in Wujian.

But according to Okiga Genshiro, there are actually only two prisoners still alive.

The rest are dead.

But according to the rules of Wujian, even if you are dead, you have to be locked up here and wait obediently for the end of your sentence before you can be "released".

Basically, those who are qualified to enter Wujian are all top-notch strong men. Even if they die, their bodies will not dissipate. After the sentence is over, their bodies will be dragged out of Wujian, and then their souls will be buried, and they will fall into hell.

This story also gave Bane a certain understanding of Infernal Affairs.

That's right. Basically, the prisoners imprisoned in Wujian have sentences of tens of thousands of years. For example, Aizen Sosuke was originally sentenced to 18,800 years, but because he was disrespectful to the Central 46 during the trial, he was given additional time, making a total of 20,000 years.

In other words, Aizen is basically immortal and there is a chance that he can serve out his entire sentence.

Apart from the perverts in the Spirit King Palace and a few extremely special individuals, who else can serve out this sentence?
Yamamoto Genryusai is said to be the 'history of Soul Society itself', but in reality, there is a lot of water in this. The gods of death are not immortal, it's just that because they have separated from their flesh and blood bodies, their lifespans have become longer and longer.

But even someone as strong as Yamamoto Genryusai actually only had a lifespan of a few thousand years.

According to the original story, Yamamoto Genryusai lived for about five thousand years at most, and this is the most exaggerated estimate possible.

The concept of a 20,000-year prison sentence is still too terrifying.

So basically, there is no possibility for prisoners sentenced to Hell to get out alive, unless they are like Saito Furumi, who seizes the opportunity to escape from prison.

As for the only two prisoners still alive in Infernal Affairs, Bane has no impression at all and it is estimated that they are unlikely to have any role in the film. It is likely that they have followed their predecessors in Infernal Affairs and died quietly in this prison.

"In addition to its functions as a prison, Wu Jian is also often used as a place for selecting captains due to its special nature," Okiya Genshiro introduced.

"Captain selection?" Bane asked with a little curiosity.

"Yes, some people are unwilling to expose the abilities of their Zanpakuto, even to their colleagues, so they choose to take the captain assessment in the Hell. Only the captain-general and the Central 46th Office can observe the assessment here and judge whether the other party is qualified enough to serve as captain." Okiga Genshiro said.

As far as I can remember, it was here that Sister Hua fought a fatal battle with Kenpachi Zaraki and eventually died in Mugen.

I guess it should be similar to the "Captain Assessment" situation, right?

The Bankai abilities of many captains are indeed very secretive, and are also listed by the Central Forty-six Rooms as powers that must never be used within the Soul Society.

For example, almost no one knows the capabilities of Makoto Hirako's Reverse Fu and his Bankai Reverse Evil Eight Treasures.

"It's really interesting," Bane muttered. After inspecting the entire prison, it was time to go up.

The two of them left the void, and as they walked upstairs, Ben asked, "How many soldiers are there in the Ninth Squad?"

"Five hundred people." Okiga Genshiro said, "It's easy to recruit soldiers. There are many candidates in the Gotei 13. I have prepared the list. You can choose any of them at any time."

"Okay." Ben responded, and then asked, "What about the officer?"

"As for the seating officers, they are arranged according to your own preferences. The number of seating officers for each team is different." Okiga Genshiro said.

"Really?" Bane said with a look of understanding in his eyes.

No wonder. As far as I can remember, during that period of time in the original story, the Ninth Division had twenty officers, which was simply outrageous.

It turns out that it was arranged according to the captain's preferences?
That's fine.

After thinking for a while, Ben said, "Then we won't have an attending officer this year. We can just recruit soldiers. I won't look at the list. I don't know any of them anyway. I'll leave it to you to be responsible for recruiting 500 soldiers. I have a few people I like among the graduates of the Shin'ō Academy of Spiritual Arts next year. I will recruit them into the team myself then."

Although Okiga Genshiro was somewhat surprised by Ben's decentralization, he immediately responded, "Yes."
