"The living are more valuable than the dead!"

"Now, the only thing blocking Lord Ansai's path is the Shihōin family. If we capture Yoruichi Shihōin and make the Shihōin family hesitant to act, then the road to heaven will be unobstructed."

"Great things can be accomplished, understand?"

Upon hearing this, Kichikawa Kusakabe hesitated and said, "But shouldn't we discuss this with Lord Ansai first?"

"Hey, Grassroots Bro, I didn't realize you had such a fussy and indecisive habit before."

Ru Yueming grinned and said, "If you're scared, it's not too late to quit now. Just don't come crying to me about not giving you a chance when you've become successful."

"Besides, you're not a key player, what are you afraid of?"

"Don't tell me you don't even know the Crimson Smoke Release."

Upon hearing this, Kichikawa Kusakabe's face was filled with struggle and entanglement.

On one hand, there are risks; on the other hand, there is great success.

This is a difficult decision for anyone.

Finally, Kichikawa Kusakabe gritted his teeth and said fiercely, "Brother, I'll risk my life to accompany you, let's do it first!"

Ru Yueming grinned: "That's right, exactly!"

Just as the two were talking, several figures suddenly appeared at the end of the street.

He was dressed in a black shihachi uniform, with the Ongaku team badge symbolizing "desirelessness" hanging on his right arm.

Second Division Shinigami.

Looking at the bustling street in front of her, Yoruichi felt uneasy for some reason.

It was just an ordinary task, yet it stirred up a strong sense of crisis within her.

"Turn back and abandon the mission."

"But, Lord Yoruichi..."

My word is law!

Seeing Yoruichi's anger, Ōmaeda Kinoshita swallowed back the words he was about to say, but at the same time felt a little relieved.

The girl he watched grow up is now a captain of the Death God who can barely stand on his own.

However, just as everyone was preparing to turn back, a large amount of crimson smoke suddenly exploded on the street, instantly obscuring everyone's vision.

The ominous premonition came true.

The scene before him felt utterly absurd to Xi Zhijin.

In the first district of West Rukongai, someone actually attacked the captain of the second division?

"Protect Lord Yoruichi!"

Without time to think too much, his broad and burly body stood directly in front of Yoruichi, unleashing a surge of spiritual pressure in an attempt to dispel the surrounding red smoke.

The other Shinigami also surrounded Yoruichi, their eyes warily scanning their surroundings.

They were used to operating in the shadows, and the sudden shift to the open was somewhat disorienting.

"Humph, want to escape?!"

A maniacal laugh echoed from all directions, followed by an overwhelming pressure. A figure burst forth from the smoke, heading straight for the strongest, Ōmaeda Nobuyuki.

"Sixty One of the Binding Dao: Six-Stand Light Prison!"

Without any hesitation, the moment the incantation of the demonic path rang out, Shinji's enormous hand struck out, and the binding spell he had prepared beforehand instantly hit the approaching figure.

However, how could a hastily prepared binding method possibly defeat a long-planned enemy?

Death Sword Style: Reverse Wave!

A fierce sword light erupted, instantly shattering the falling binding light.

Ōmaeda Kinosugu's pupils constricted as he sensed the enemy's strength. Just as he was about to warn the others to be careful, a fist bone containing immense power lunged forward.

Bang!

A dull, heavy blow sent him flying, his massive body tracing a graceful arc before crashing to the end of the street.

Kill instantly with one hit!

Having dealt with the biggest threat, Ru Yueming transformed into a ferocious tiger and charged into the crowd. With a single move, he killed two sheep with one tiger, and two more people fell helplessly to the ground.

The invincible Ōmaeda has already fallen, so how much of a splash can the rest make?

Moreover, other nobles stepped in to resolve the issue, so Tsukimi only needed to stand in front of Yoruichi as the slightly shorter figure.

"I absolutely will not allow it..."

Before she could finish speaking, a large hand pressed down on her cheek, followed by a precise chop to the back, knocking her unconscious.

The two looked at each other.

"How did you recognize it?"

"intuition."

Yoruichi blinked and smiled slyly, "Are you planning to kidnap me and take me back to be your bandit queen?"

"Hmph, you've been found out. Since that's the case, then I won't pretend to be a gentleman anymore."

Ruyue Ming grinned maliciously, then swept his arm around the other woman's slender waist and hoisted Yoruichi onto his shoulder.

With a flash, he disappeared at the end of the street...

Chapter 113 Is Yamamoto too old to eat?

"I'm stupid, really."

In the Second Division barracks, in the executive room, the girl knelt limply on the ground. Then, she raised her lifeless eyes, tears welling in the corners, and stared blankly ahead.

"I knew there was more than one enemy, but I still neglected the rear, which resulted in a sneak attack and the loss of Lord Yoruichi. It's all my fault..."

Ōmaeda Kōnosuke's expression was grim, but he couldn't blame the other person, since he was the first one to fall.

The other party came prepared, with a sneak attack and deception. I thought it was an assassination, but it turned out to be a kidnapping.

If he had known that their target was Yoruichi Shihouin, Nozomi would never have backed down, even if it meant being killed on the spot by the enemy, rather than letting Yoruichi be kidnapped by them.

Now things are much better. The Shihouin family has finally produced a head of the family who has gained the approval of their heirloom Zanpakuto, and the Second Division has welcomed a new captain. It hasn't even been a few days yet.

The person was lost.

If this gets out, it's not just a matter of losing face; it could cause turmoil within the Seireitei.

"Alright, Sho, this isn't entirely your fault."

Seeing that the girl seemed to be heading in the direction of losing her soul, Ōmaeda Kinoshita frowned and rebuked her sternly:

"Moreover, Lord Yoruichi has only been kidnapped; there is still a chance to salvage the situation."

"Once we know their identity, we can force them to hand over Lord Yoruichi!"

"Most importantly, I've roughly figured out who it is!"

Upon hearing this, Aya's eyes regained their focus as she looked at the burly and imposing Hijiri and murmured, "..."

"Is there still a chance?"

"Can we really bring Yoruichi back to life?!"

Xi Zhijin nodded, his expression serious, and said, "Judging from the way they attacked, they have received professional training, but the Spirit Arts Academy does not teach similar methods."

“Right now, apart from the Second Division, only other noble families in Soul Society would train such people.”

"It's time to deliver this message to Shihouin..."

The news that the current head of the Shihōin family had been forcibly abducted did not spread throughout Soul Society; only a few people knew about it.

This includes, but is not limited to, the captains of each squad, as well as some nobles.

"The captain of the Shifu Academy has been kidnapped?!"

In the first squad, Yamamoto's eyes widened, as if flames were burning in his pupils.

For some reason, the first image that popped into his mind when he heard the news was that good-for-nothing, stupid disciple.

But soon, Yamamoto shook his head.

Although Ru Yueming is a bit dim-witted in ordinary times, she is quick-witted in critical moments, and after being hit occasionally, she can show a way of understanding that is beyond the reach of ordinary people.

Moreover, he has a very good grasp of the big picture.

Ru Yueming wouldn't do something so outrageous.

Maybe……

Yamamoto stood by the window, looking towards the Sixth Ward, with a strange sense of foreboding.

Yoruichi Shihouin's abduction is not only a trampling of the dignity of the Thirteenth Division, but also a blatant provocation against the Shihouin family, one of the five great noble families.

He was already reluctant to think about the terrible consequences that had been caused.

…………

Seireitei, in an unnamed alley near the 6th ward.

The boy carried the girl on his back, like a bandit king returning from a plunder, strutting arrogantly down the street.

"The plan is quite rudimentary. Have you really thought about the consequences?"

Yoruichi leaned on Akira's shoulder and said irritably, "The head of one of the five great noble families and the captain of the second division being kidnapped in the street could cause a terrible upheaval."

"Even if you pin the blame on Tsunayo Yasui, the 46th Chamber will not let you off the hook if you are held accountable afterwards."

Ruyue Ming grinned, saying nonchalantly, "It's simple but effective. As long as we can get Gangya Dai's so-called godhood plan to start ahead of schedule, he will be met with the old man's heavy punch."

"As for the reckoning afterwards, aren't you still there?"

"Don't tell me that you, the head of the Shihōin family, don't even have the power to protect one person."

Upon hearing this, Yoruichi seemed to be deep in thought.
