Bleach: Starting with Marrying Retsu Unohana

As for the Adjuchas, seeing this scene, they dared not remain. They immediately activated their Resonating Whirlwind and fled! For a moment, the battle between the Grim Reaper and the Adjuchas seemed to have subsided once more, at the cost of a group of Killian...

There's no way around it; with intelligence like that of a wild beast and no potential for further evolution, the Killian has absolutely no right to be a Hollow! Whether it's the Shinigami or even higher-ranking Hollows, they'll all bully them...

With the battle over, it was time to divide the spoils! The members of the 11th Division of the Gotei 13 carried Killian's body and headed towards the hot springs outside the Forest of Menreiki.

Currently, the Grim Reapers are clearly in a better "economy" and are gradually gaining an advantage...

Time flies, ten years have passed in a flash...

Over the course of ten years, the Hueco Mundo Extermination Corps and the Adjuchas of Las Noches have clashed countless times. Both the Shinigami and the Adjuchas seem to have become familiar with each other's tactics over time, and most battles are now decidedly ended in a draw. After all, the fundamental objective of both sides is not fighting, but rather to seize more Killian corpses. During this period, both sides have had their share of victories and defeats in the struggle for these corpses…

As for whether the 'Adjuchas' and the Death Knights' frenzied hunt for the Killian would disrupt the balance of the Great Hollow Forest, neither side needs to consider that at all.

Because Hueco Mundo is so enormous, and the 'Ghost Forest' is also incredibly vast, no one knows exactly how many Hollows reside in this forest, which is even older than the Gotei 13...

At the same time, whether it's the Grim Reapers or the Adjuchas, when they fight against the Killian, they mostly target the Killian without intelligence. If they encounter a Killian with the potential to evolve, they will usually let it go...

The Adjuchas felt a sense of kinship with these Kyrians, while the Death Gods believed that it was more cost-effective to let these Kyrians evolve into Adjuchas before attacking them. It wasn't that they couldn't kill them directly, but that would be more efficient!

As for Araki...

Araki was doing other things. More important things.

"My esteemed Captain-Commander Yamamoto, I am your most prized disciple, Araki. How have you been lately?!"

"Recently, my dear disciple has encountered some minor troubles in Hueco Mundo..."

"Actually, this matter isn't that big of a deal. It's just that the five captains you once assigned to me to assist me in defeating the evil Hollow 'Kimi Mitsu Tomoe'—'Shijima Chigiri', 'Executor Taketsuna', and 'Zenjoji Yubin', 'Kumoni Enteki', and 'Gyokotsu Saizo'—whose aesthetics I don't even match—all of them accidentally died!"

"In this regard, I hope that you, as the Captain-Commander of the Gotei 13, can continue to reinforce our forces with five squad leaders to complete our campaign against 'Omotomo'. I strongly suggest that Captain Shikatori be among the five squad leaders you reinforce, while the other four are fine... Oh, and no, no Wang Tuchuan Yuxi!"

In the First Division barracks, Yamamoto fell silent after listening to Sasaki Bejiro read aloud the report Araki had sent from Hueco Mundo.

"Chōjirō..."

Genryusai took a deep breath, looked at Chojiro Sasakibe beside him, and greeted him softly.

"Lord Yuan Liuzhai, I'm here!"

Upon hearing this, the Sparrow immediately lowered his head respectfully.

"Tell me, how exactly did Araki manage to do something so careless as to kill five captain-level Shinigami of the Spirit Might Rank 2 or higher at the same time in one breath?!"

Yuan Liuzhai asked the Sparrow Division.

"This...this subordinate doesn't know either..."

After hesitating for a moment, he really couldn't understand how Shijima Chigiri and the others 'died'.

"Dead? Heh..."

Genryusai recalled his conversation with Araki, and it seemed that Araki had already begun to build his own 'army'.

"Let's send the Third Division Captain Yan Yuan Jinle, the Fifth Division Captain Wei Danjiro, the Eighth Division Captain Shikato Hakuunzai, and the Tenth Division Captain Wang Tuchuan Yuxuji to Hueco Mundo!"

"Oh, right, there's one more thing! Chojiro, don't forget to have Yan Yuan and the others pass on a message to my unworthy disciple! If another 'captain' dies this time, don't come asking me for replacements. I don't have anyone left to send to Hueco Mundo..."

Yuan Liuzhai naturally knew what was going on. He planned to help his good apprentice by sending him one knife after another.

Thus, the vast Seireitei will bid farewell to the era of the first Gotei 13! Thinking about this, Genryusai felt quite sad. He had personally selected the twelve swords, and now he had personally sent them out of the Seireitei.

What a pity! A knife can intimidate enemies and kill evildoers, but it cannot teach future generations!

In chaotic times, harsh measures must be used. It is better to be too strict than too lenient. To correct a wrong, one must go to extremes!

But what happens after the chaos ends?!

"Ugh……"

Thinking of this, Yuan Liuzhai sighed deeply.

Immediately afterward, Genryusai turned to the still motionless Sparrowbeard beside him and asked, "Chōjirō, what are you still doing here?!"

"Reporting to Lord Genryusai!" Upon hearing this, Sparrowbe immediately replied to Genryusai, "Actually, Araki said he hopes you will send five captains to Hueco Mundo as reinforcements, and he also said that he absolutely does not want Otokawa Ameoki!"

"Let him go!"

Upon hearing this, Yuan Liuzhai felt a surge of anger. He couldn't help but ask the Sparrow Division, "Are you listening to him or me? Who is the captain of the Thirteenth Division of the Gotei 13?!"

"Lord Genryuzhai, of course I'll listen to you! You are the captain of the Thirteenth Division of the Gotei 13!"

Quebu answered Yuanliuzhai.

"Ah."

Yuan Liuzhai was very pleased to hear this.

"But Araki is now a member of the Zero Division, and frankly speaking, his authority is probably above yours to some extent."

However, when the sparrow continued to speak, Genryusai's mood became less pleasant.

"You get out too! And remember to do as I say."

Yuan Liuzhai drove the Sparrow Troupe away for the first time.

"As ordered!"

Upon hearing this, the sagabe dared not linger and immediately left the First Division barracks.

"We can't let Sasakibe continue hanging out with that guy Araki! Sasakibe, who used to be so meticulous, is starting to talk more and more like Araki now. He can drive people crazy with his seriousness." Genryusai couldn't help but smile at this thought. "I wonder if that bastard Araki has made any progress in Hueco Mundo! Seireitei is too peaceful without Araki."

Another 10,000 words! Please point out any problems so I can make changes, as my mind is currently foggy and I'm not sure if I've made any mistakes...

After that, the Hueco Mundo layout chapter will soon come to an end...

Oh, and one last thing, please vote for me!

Chapter 75 Araki: My lords, become my personal guards!

"Then, esteemed captains, I'll see you off here..."

With the four captains—Wang Tuchuan Yuxi, Odan Jiro, Yan Yuan Jinle, and Shikato Hakunsai—who were dispatched by the old man to support Araki in Hueco Mundo, the Sparrowbeard arrived at the strange "Gateway to Another World" sponsored by Araki. The Sparrowbeard then bowed respectfully to the four captains and gestured for them to leave through the Gateway.

"understood!"

Upon hearing this, Shikaku Hakunsai put away the novel he was carrying and gave a slight bow to the Sparrow Department in return.

"Go back! Captain Yamamoto still needs you. We can handle the rest ourselves!"

Odanjiro, on the other hand, expressed with great pride that he fully understood the work of the sparrow club.

"Um, everyone... have a safe journey!"

As he looked at his former companions, who were about to leave Soul Society for various reasons, he was overwhelmed with mixed feelings, and a sense of sadness welled up in his heart for some reason.

"Let's go~"

Wang Tuchuan, Yu Xufei, and the others didn't make a fuss. Since it was an order from Captain-Commander Yamamoto, they should just carry it out. As for what lay ahead or what the future held, that was irrelevant.

They never considered this. Back when their weapons were scattered throughout the Soul Society, living aimlessly, they never thought about the future!

"Ugh……"

As Shikatori and the others completely disappeared into the 'Gate of Transcendence', Suzakube finally came to his senses. He looked at the slowly dimming gate and sighed helplessly.

"Let's go! Let's go back..."

Just as Quebu was deep in thought, a slightly cheerful voice suddenly rang out beside him.

"Hmm? Captain Shihouin, you're here too?"

When Suzaku turned around, he saw that Shihouin Senhi, who was still ranked as the leader of the 'Second Division', had somehow come to his side. Suzaku quickly greeted him.

In the view of the Sparrowbeard, perhaps Chihiro Shihouin had arrived from the very beginning, or perhaps Chihiro Shihouin couldn't bear to see her companions leave, and only appeared hastily to take one last look at everyone after all of them had left...

After all, if we were to say who is the most "sad" in the current "Seireitei", it would undoubtedly be this first captain of the Gotei 13, besides Captain-Commander Yamamoto.

"We have to see them off..."

Shihouin Sennatsu patted Sasakibe on the shoulder, his voice tinged with emotion.

"Ah."

After listening to what Shihouin Sennatsu said, Sasakibe nodded.

"Um... shall we go get some noodles together?"

Just when Suzakube thought that Shihouin Senhi would be very sad, Shihouin Senhi spoke to Suzakube once again.

"Eh?!"

Sparrowbe was taken aback. He clearly hadn't expected Shihouin Senhi to want to have noodles with him, and besides, the occasion seemed rather inappropriate...

"Shouldn't we celebrate seeing our friends find jobs that suit them?"

Senhi Shihōin smiled easily at the stunned Suzakube.

"makes sense……"

The sagabe then showed a hint of realization. Just as Shihouin Senri had said, sending these captains to Hueco Mundo, to where they belonged, was better than leaving them in Seireitei to be persecuted by those foolish nobles, even if it meant they might never see each other again.

Thinking about it that way, we really should celebrate...

"My treat!"

So, the Sparrow Department decided to be generous this time.

"Then we won't eat noodles. I know a place that has amazing noodles!"

To this, Shihouin Chihiro laughed, a laugh like that of a cunning black cat. It seemed someone was going to empty their pockets of cash today, only to go home crying! Although Shihouin Chihiro was never short of money, he was certainly mischievous!

If it were someone who was 'immortal' at this moment, they would definitely take off their straw sandals and throw them hard at Shihouin Senhi's wicked face...

"Uh, okay!"

At this moment, Suzakube was unaware of what awaited him. Being a gentleman by nature, he smiled gently at Shihouin Senhi.

the other side……

When the four captains, 'Shikatori,' 'Ikuhara,' 'Otogawa,' and 'Odanjiro,' passed through the dark rift and arrived at Hueco Mundo, filled with ominous and gloomy spiritual pressure, what they saw was...

"Woooooo~"

Holding a small trumpet, he was blowing nonsense.

"Clap clap~"
