Based on her understanding of Ruyueming, she knew that such a plan, which even included a backup plan, could not have been his idea.

Given Akira's personality and way of thinking, the best way to deal with Tsunayoshi would simply be for the Shihouin family to unite with the Thirteen Teams and sweep them all away.

Forcing the other party to take action in advance, and putting ourselves on the side of righteousness to launch a counterattack against the Tsunayo family, is definitely something that someone else helped devise.

who can that be?

The girl touched her delicate chin, deep in thought.

…………

Tsunayoshiro's residence.

study.

When Akira told Tsunayo Yamazaki about his previous actions and took out the Shihōin clan crest, which symbolized his identity.

Tsunayo Ansai immediately felt his blood pressure rise and his head throb.

He thought he was anxious enough, but he didn't expect his subordinates to be even more anxious than him.

They actually managed to kidnap the current head of the Shihōin family.

If even the slightest mistake were made, even he wouldn't be able to save Ruyueming.

"Lord Anzhai, what are you still hesitating for?!"

Asuka Minghou said impatiently, "Right now, the rotten wood is weak, Shihōin's hands are bound, Shiba Shiki is short-lived, three of the five noble families are gone, and the Thirteenth Division is even more concerned about their status and cannot make a move against you."

"This is the perfect time to ascend to godhood."

"Could it be that the plan has changed, or perhaps..."

"You betrayed us?!"

In the end, he even changed his form of address and spoke frankly.

Looking at Tsunayo Ansai's unpredictable expression, Akira gasped inwardly.

Just like Aizen said.

Even his facial expressions were guessed correctly.

Simply capturing Yoruichi Shihouin is not enough to change Tsunayoshiro Ansai's mind; the only way is to verbally harass him and disrupt his thought process.

Only in this way can the plan proceed smoothly.

To be honest, Sousuke is really useful.

He only needs to be an emotionless parrot; the rest can be left to Aizen.

Okay, that's great.

"What nonsense!"

Tsunayo Ansai glared and said angrily, "How could I possibly give up such a hard-won opportunity? My thoughts just now were merely about how to make my move."

"You don't really think I'm afraid of that Yamamoto, do you?"

Ru Yueming nodded without changing his expression.

Gang Midai Anzai was speechless.

This kid is great in every way—strong, talented, and bold—but his mouth is just too infuriating.

No wonder he gets beaten up by Yamamoto every day.

"Have you made up your mind?"

Ru Yueming urged, "Everyone is getting impatient."

There was absolutely no element of acting in that expression.

Tsunayo Ansai was too indecisive and lacked the decisiveness of someone destined for greatness.

Everything is ready except for the final push. As long as he gives the order, the nobles and rebels affiliated with Tsunayoshi will rise up in unison.

First, wipe out the thirteen teams, then slaughter the five noble families.

At that time, there will only be one voice in Soul Society!

"Hmph, of course!"

Tsunayo Yasui narrowed his eyes slightly, as if he had made up his mind: "Usamaru, convey my order: convene the Golden Seal Nobles Conference and the Forty-Six Chambers Conference!"

As soon as the words were spoken, a person emerged from the shadows of the room, knelt on one knee, and respectfully said:

"Yes."

Upon seeing this, Ru Yueming was startled. He hadn't noticed that there was someone hiding in the shadows until now. Such concealment skills were no less than Xing Jun's.

The foundation of the five noble families is indeed unfathomable.

Even the most random cat or dog could be a powerful figure with the strength of a seat official.

"Salute first, then soldiers."

Tsunayo Ansai glanced at Akira and explained, "If we can take down the others without bloodshed, that would be best."

"But if they don't know what's good for them, then force can be used!"

Since Tsunayo Ansai had already said so, Ruyueming couldn't urge him any further, or he would give himself away.

If he is suspected, he will be caught in the middle.

…………

The Golden Seal Noble Council was convened.

Shihōin took the lead, targeting Tsunayoshiro directly.

According to the search and investigation by the covert mobile unit, the people who abducted their patriarch finally appeared near Tsunayoshiro's residence.

Tsunayoshi would naturally not admit to this.

Instead, the blame was placed directly on Kuchiki, who was accused of colluding with the rebels, murdering many members of the Gotei 13, and assassinating the current head of the Shihōin family, and a series of evidence was presented.

Finally, he threatened Shihouin to side with Tsunayoshiro, vote to strip him of his status as one of the Five Great Nobles, and banish him to the Dangai.

Kuchiki Ginrin was furious, stating that this was all fabricated and that the one who truly betrayed Soul Society was not Kuchiki, but Tsunayoshi.

The heated argument turned the Golden Seal Noble Council into complete chaos.

In the end, Tsunayo Yamasai declared his intention to eradicate the corruption and darkness of Soul Society, and launched the first attack against the Kuchiki family.

Shihōin observed coldly, indicating that neither of these two families was any good.

Because of the patriarch's disappearance, the elders of the Shihōin family now see everyone as the mastermind behind it all.

If it weren't for his lack of strength, he would have even wanted to wage war against all the nobles until he found his own patriarch.

Both sides stuck to their own versions of events, and in the end, there was no resolution.

When the meeting ended, Tsunayo Ansai looked at everyone in the conference room with a cold gaze, then snorted and strode out of the room.

As Kuchiki Ginryu watched her departing figure, a bad premonition inexplicably welled up in her heart.

The previous defeat in the war undoubtedly caused the Kuchiki family's reputation to plummet; otherwise, how could they have fallen into such a slump at the meeting?

As for Shifengyuan, out of concern for the safety of his own family head, he could only choose to remain neutral and not take sides.

Or rather, in their eyes, both Tsunayoshiro and Kuchiki could be the murderers who abducted their patriarch.

…………

That night, the moonlight was hazy, a thin veil covering the darkness, making the night even more inky.

In an instant, countless spiritual forces erupted between the streets and houses, making the air murky and viscous, giving people a feeling of difficulty breathing.

Gang Miyo was the first to launch an attack.

The rebels they supported appeared in the 6th district and launched a general offensive directly against the Kuchiki family.

Kuchiki Ginryo's expression was extremely grim as he looked at the rebels who had completely surrounded the Kuchiki Mansion.

He had considered many possibilities, but he never expected that Tsunayoshi would disregard the rules of the Soul Society that had been in place for millions of years and completely break off relations.

Doesn't Tsunayo Ansai worry about being purged by Yamamoto?

"It's nice to meet you again, Lord Yinling."

Tsunayoshi Usamaru looked at the old man in front of him with disdain, "Since you are unwilling to accept the fate of being exiled, then let Kuchiki be completely removed from the Soul Society."

As the chief disciple of Tsunayoshi, he was very talented and had already reached the fourth level of spiritual power at a young age, in addition to the assistance of his family's Zanpakuto.

It is fully capable of contending with, or even defeating, Kuchiki Ginryo!

Has it really gotten this horrific?

Kuchiki Ginrei said coldly, "You're willing to risk everything for power. Aren't you worried about being purged by Captain-Commander Yamamoto?"

"Hmph." Tsunayoshi Usamaru sneered, "Yamamoto is old, his blade is no longer sharp."

"He will naturally be dealt with by Lord Anzai."

"Never underestimate the efforts of the Tsunayo family over the past few centuries!"

"After tonight, Tsuna Yayo will become the new god of Soul Society, the most supreme being!"

Upon hearing this, Xiu Mu Yin Ling's pupils shrank sharply.

Meanwhile, in front of the Shihōin residence.

Led by Ruyue Ming, a group of nobles completely surrounded the huge mansion, radiating a powerful and imposing spiritual pressure that distorted the surrounding air.

In order to prevent Shihouin from aiding the Kuchiki family, Tsunayo Yasai specifically ordered that they be held back as much as possible, and that if necessary, Shihouin Yoruichi be used as a threat.

Looking at the boy at the front, Ōmaeda Kinosugu rubbed his eyes hard, as if he had seen something unbelievable.

He never imagined that Kisaragi Akira, who was least likely to side with Tsunayoshiro, would actually choose to abandon the light and join the darkness for a little power.

"Lord Kisaragi, give the order."

Kikawa Kusakabe was breathing heavily through his nose, his old face was flushed, and his expression was extremely excited.

He could almost see power beckoning to him. After this battle, the Kikawa family would surely rise to the ranks of the upper nobility, becoming a force second only to the king in Soul Society.

"Gentlemen, success or failure hinges on this moment."
