Death: Captain Millennium

Byakuya returned to the Kuchiki household with an ecstatic look on his face, "Hisama! I found a way to heal you."

Hearing Bai Ya's excited voice, Fei Zhen felt touched and relieved, but she still shook her head gently: "Bai Ya, thank you for running around for me. But I know my physical condition. This kind of spiritual collapse is irreversible. Please don't waste your energy. As long as you are by my side, I am already very satisfied."

Byakuya held Hisahi's hand tightly, his eyes gentle, "Hisahi, this time your efforts were not in vain. I really found hope. Uncle Hibiki took me to see his master, the captain of the 7th Division, the officiant on our wedding day. He told me that he could stabilize your spirit and stop it from disintegrating. Although it can't be completely cured, it can at least extend your lifespan, so that we can spend more time together."

Feizhen looked at Byakuya in surprise, tears glistening in her eyes: "Really? But...will this cause you trouble?"

Byakuya shook his head and smiled, "No, Hime. This is my choice and my responsibility. As long as I can save you, I'm willing to pay any price."

Feizhen was so moved that tears streamed down her face. She gently hugged Baiya and felt his warm embrace. At this moment, she felt that she was the happiest woman in the world.

"Hishin, I'll take you there now." After saying that, Byakuya picked up Hishin and slowly walked towards the direction of Team 7. Although this was a slower way to travel, Hishin's body could no longer withstand any more exertion.

"Captain Mayuri Kuroda! I have something to ask of you." Hibiki also rushed to the Technology Development Bureau.

"Captain Xianghe has something to ask of me. Did the captain-in-chief give any instructions?" Kurotsuchi Mayuri raised his head from the experimental subject and looked at Xianghe, a hint of doubt in his eyes.

"That's not the case. It's just a little matter concerning my Kuchiki family. Captain Kuroda, can you go to the 7th Division with me?" Hibiki looked at Kuroda Mayuri seriously and said.

"Why are you going to the 7th Division to discuss the Kuchiki family's affairs?" Kurotsuchi Mayuri asked, frowning. He couldn't imagine how the Kuchiki family's affairs had anything to do with the 7th Division.

Hibiki earnestly explained to Kurotsuchi Mayuri, "Captain Kurotsuchi, the wife of the next head of the Kuchiki family is experiencing some health issues. My master has tried his best, but he's still unsure about the situation. Therefore, I'd like you to come to Squad 7 and provide assistance."

Kurotsuchi Mayuri asked in confusion, "Oh? Then who is your master?"

Xianghe smiled and replied: "My master is the captain of the seventh team - Lin Yu."

Kuroshiro Mayuri exclaimed, as if suddenly realizing something. "Oh my! I didn't expect Captain Xianghe and Captain Linyu to have such a connection. This is the first time I've heard of it."

Kurotsuchi Mayuri mused to himself that if even a pervert like Lin Yu couldn't solve the problem, he probably wouldn't be able to handle it either. But after all, a favor from the Kuchiki family was quite rare, and this opportunity couldn't be missed.

After some consideration, Kurotsuchi Mayuri decided to go to Squad 7 to investigate and earn a favor. He could then just find an excuse to shirk responsibility, saying he was powerless.

"Let's go then, Captain Xianghe."

Kurotsuchi Mayuri and Hibiki arrived at the 7th Division in no time.

"Captain Lin Yu, nice to meet you again." Kurotsuchi Mayuri looked at Lin Yu with a smile on his face.

"Captain Nie, please take a seat."

Just as Kuroda Mayuri was about to sit down, Lin Yu suddenly said, "I wonder how Captain Kuroda's research on my blood is going?"

Kurotsuchi Mayuri subconsciously said, "Captain Lin Yu only has this little blood. My research..." At this point, he realized that he had been tricked by Lin Yu and immediately shut up.

Lin Yu's expression suddenly changed, and he said coldly, "Captain Nie, you promised me that you wouldn't use my blood for research. Do you want to experience what it's like to be used as research material?"

Upon hearing this, Kuroda Mayuri's face showed a hint of embarrassment, and he quickly explained, "Captain Lin Yu, you must be joking. How dare I break my promise?"

In fact, the amount of blood Kurotsuchi Mayuri drew last time was too little, so he couldn't do much research. He felt pain every time he used it, and there has been no results so far.

Lin Yu's expression changed again, revealing a smile. He said in a relaxed tone, "It's okay. I didn't call you here today for this. It's like this. Mrs. Kuchiki Byakuya is an ordinary soul. Living in Seireitei, the powerful spiritual power has been affecting her soul body. Now it's getting weaker and weaker. I wonder if Captain Nirvana has any solution?"

Kuroda Mayuri frowned and was about to say there was nothing he could do, but Lin Yu spoke first, "There's no rush, actually. Let's wait for Byakuya and his wife to come over and see the situation in detail."

Lin Yu, Kurotsuchi Mayuri, and Hibiki sat around the table, drinking and chatting awkwardly. Time ticked by, and Byakuya finally arrived with Hiima.

"Captain Lin Yu, Captain Nie, uncle, I brought Fei Zhen here." After such a short distance, Fei Zhen fell into coma again. The people present were all captains or above, and Fei Zhen could not bear the dissipated spiritual pressure. His soul suddenly dimmed a little.

Kurotsuchi Mayuri quickly walked up to Hime, examined him carefully, and then frowned.

"The situation isn't optimistic. Her spirit is already very weak. If she doesn't receive prompt treatment, she probably won't last long."

Byakuya's expression grew even more serious, "Captain Nirvana, is there really no other way?"

Lin Yu stepped forward quickly and said, "Let me take care of it first, otherwise her soul will dissipate soon."

Lin Yu used his Zanpakuto to stick to Feizhen, and cast "Star Protection". The power of the starlight slowly entered Feizhen's body, and his soul gradually stabilized.

"Hmm~" Feizhen woke up with a moan. "Bai Ya! Am I going to die?"

Bai Zai was suddenly very excited, "Fei Zhen, it's okay, it was Captain Lin Yu who saved you."

Fei Zhen said weakly: "Captain Lin Yu, thank you for saving me."

Lin Yu waved his hand and said, "Stop talking. Your current condition is not optimistic."

Bai Ya knelt on the ground and said, "Thank you, Captain Lin Yu. I have always doubted whether you can save Fei Zhen. I apologize!"

Lin Yu stopped him, "Bai Zai, don't be too happy too soon. I can only temporarily restore her soul and body. If I can't let her have spiritual pressure, her soul and body will continue to become weaker."

Kurotsuchi Mayuri also spoke up, "I can try using my latest potion, but it's only a temporary solution and can't last long. Besides, this potion has certain side effects."

"No matter what, as long as it can save Hime, I'm willing to try." Byakuya said without hesitation.

Kurotsuchi Mayuri nodded, took out a syringe, and injected the medicine into Hishin's body.

Fei Zhen's face gradually regained some color and his breathing became much steadier.

"This is only temporary relief. If we want to cure it completely, we need to find a better method," said Kurotsuchi Mayuri.

Byakuya glanced at Kurotsuchi Mayuri with gratitude, "Thank you, Captain Kurotsuchi. I'll continue to look for other solutions."

Thanks to Lin Yu and Kurotsuchi Mayuri's treatment, Feizhen's condition is now much better.

"Captain Nie, is there really no way you can solve her problem?"

Kurotsuchi Mayuri spread his hands. "Even Captain Lin Yu is helpless. What else can I do?"

Lin Yu sighed, "Ah! If Kisuke hadn't betrayed Soul Society, he would definitely have a way to save Hime. It seems Captain Nirvana's scientific research ability is much worse than his."

Upon hearing this, Kurotsuchi Mayuri was furious. You can say that a scientist is not good, but you can never say that he is not capable of scientific research, especially when comparing him with his arch-enemy.

"Hmph! Urahara Kisuke is nothing. I'll take responsibility for this matter. There are no research instruments here. I'll go back to the 12th Division and find a solution." After saying that, Kurotsuchi Mayuri quickly left.

Everyone present, except Lin Yu, was stunned. Kurotsuchi Mayuri had agreed so easily?

"Are Master's words so destructive? He didn't say anything." Xianghe didn't understand the pride of scientists at all.

Seeing that Kurotsuchi Mayuri had returned, Hibiki, Byakuya, and Hime were also preparing to leave.

Lin Yu stopped the three people who were about to leave, "Hey! Bai Zai, you two shouldn't leave. Fei Zhen can't stand any more torture. You two can find an empty room in my mansion to stay. It will be convenient for me to treat Fei Zhen's soul and body when it is weak."

After Bai Ya and Fei Zhen thanked Lin Yu, they settled down in the mansion.

During this period, what Lin Yu did every day was to use the power of the stars to maintain Fei Zhen's spiritual body.

Watching Byakuya and the other man display their affection every day, Lin Yu finally understood Saito's feelings. "Has Kurotsuchi Mayuri still not found a solution? It's really annoying. These days feel like years."

On the other hand, after returning to the Technology Development Bureau, Mayuri Kurotsuchi immediately summoned his researchers and began to study ways to treat Hime.

After several days of hard work, Kurotsuchi Mayuri finally had some clues. The reason why Hijin's soul was so fragile was because she was not a Shinigami, but an ordinary soul.

In order to make her soul stronger, she must be given spiritual pressure. However, directly giving spiritual pressure is not an easy task, and Kurotsuchi Mayuri needs to find a special substance as a medium to transmit spiritual pressure.

After poring over reams of information and conducting countless experiments, Mayuri Kurotsuchi finally found the right substance. Excited, he returned to Lin Yu's residence, carrying his findings with him.

Looking at the smile on Kurotsuchi Mayuri's face, Lin Yu knew that the matter was done.

"Captain Nie, have you found a way to solve Fei Zhen's problem?" Lin Yu asked tentatively.

"Of course!" Kurotsuchi Mayuri laughed triumphantly. "It's just a matter of spiritual bodies. How could it stump a great scientist like me?"

Hearing this, Lin Yu was delighted, but still pretended to be skeptical and said, "Really? Captain Nie is so sure?"

"Hmph, Captain Lin Yu, don't think I don't know what you're thinking. You're questioning my ability." Kurotsuchi Mayuri glanced at Lin Yu with disdain. "Don't worry, I wouldn't joke about such a thing."

"That's good, that's good..." Lin Yu breathed a sigh of relief, "But, Captain Nie, can you tell me the specific method?"

Kurotsuchi Mayuri smiled mysteriously and said, "This is my exclusive secret recipe. I can't tell you."

Lin Yu shook his head helplessly, thinking that Kurotsuchi Mayuri really had a strange temper. But no matter what, as long as he could save Feizhen, it would be fine.

At this moment, Lin Yu suddenly thought of a question and asked curiously: "Captain Nirvana, Urahara Kisuke shouldn't have such an achievement, right?"

After hearing this, Kuroda Mayuri showed a hint of pride on his face and said, "Of course. Urahara Kisuke is nothing compared to me. I am the most powerful scientist!"

Lin Yu quickly agreed: "Yes, yes, Captain Nie is the best."

Lin Yu's words made Kurotsuchi Mayuri quite satisfied. He thought to himself, Urahara Kisuke is nothing. I am the No. 1 in the scientific world.

The two of them flattered each other and soon arrived at Byakuya and Hisahi's yard.

When Baiya saw Lin Yu and Kurotsuchi Mayuri arriving together without any expression of frustration on his face, he knew in his heart that Feizhen's problem must have been solved.

He rushed into the house excitedly and shouted, "Fei Zhen! Captain Lin Yu and Captain Nie are here, your spirit body problem is solved!"

Upon hearing the good news, Hima couldn't help but burst into tears of joy, tears streaming down her cheeks. She threw herself into Byakuya's arms, choking with sobs and unable to speak.

Byakuya hugged Hime tightly, his eyes filled with joy and comfort. He gently stroked Hime's back and whispered, "Don't cry, we should be happy."

The two hugged each other, feeling each other's warmth and joy. Their feelings at this moment could not be expressed in words.

"Ahem!" Lin Yu and Kuroda Mayuri looked at this heartwarming scene and couldn't help but cough twice as a reminder.

When Byakuya and Hime heard the sound, they let go of each other a little embarrassedly. Their faces were filled with happy smiles, and their eyes were full of love for each other.

Lin Yu smiled and said to Bai Ya and Fei Zhen: "Okay, you two stop showing off your affection and quickly let Captain Nirvana check Fei Zhen's body."

Byakuya nodded, pulled Himejin in front of Kurotsuchi Mayuri, and looked at him expectantly.

Mayuri Kurotsuchi pulled out various tools from his bag and began carefully examining Feizhen's condition. As he did so, he said, "It seems Captain Lin Yu's abilities are working quite well. Her spirit hasn't deteriorated significantly during this time."

After hearing this, Bai Ya said gratefully: "Captain Lin Yu blesses Fei Zhen with the power of the stars every day, so she is in good condition."

After a busy period, Mayuri Kurotsuchi finally finished examining Hime. He put away his tools and said to Byakuya, "It seems that Hime's spirit is now stable. You should know that to completely resolve this problem, she must possess her own Reiatsu and become a Shinigami."

"Captain Nirvana, I know what you said, but I have no way of making Feizhen become a god of death."

At this time, Kurotsuchi Mayuri took out a small bottle from his arms, carefully opened the bottle cap, and poured out a small pill the size of a soybean.

Kurotsuchi Mayuri held up the small pill and said proudly, "Look! This is what I've been researching these past few days. It can grant ordinary souls spiritual pressure and allow them to possess the power to become a Shinigami!"

Byakuya stared closely at the small pill in Kurotsuchi Mayuri's hand, his eyes gleaming with anticipation and excitement, as if he had already seen Hime recover after taking the pill. He couldn't wait to feed the pill to Hime.

However, Kuroda Mayuri suddenly looked at Lin Yu and said, "But... this thing still requires Captain Lin Yu's help."

Lin Yu pointed at himself, a hint of doubt on his face, and asked, "Me?"

Mayuri Kurotsuchi nodded and explained, "Yes, it's you. Although the spiritual pressure here is very mild, that's only relative to us Shinigami. Ordinary souls simply can't withstand such spiritual pressure. Therefore, if we can enlist Captain Lin Yu's help and infuse the power of the stars into this ball, Feizhen will be able to withstand the spiritual pressure smoothly."

Lin Yu nodded thoughtfully, then reached out and took the small pill from Kurotsuchi Mayuri. He concentrated, channeling the star power of his Zanpakutō, and slowly infused it into the pill. As the star power poured in, the pill began to emit a faint glow, like a dazzling pearl.

"Alright, feed it to Feizhen."

Baiya took the small pill tremblingly and fed it into Feizhen's mouth.

After Feizhen swallowed the small pill with difficulty, the effect was instantly apparent. A trace of spiritual pressure began to emerge in her body, but at the same time her expression began to become painful.

Seeing this, Lin Yu on the side hurriedly mobilized the power of the stars again and continuously injected it into Fei Zhen's body to relieve her pain.

As time went by, the spiritual pressure in Feizhen's body gradually increased.

Twenty...

Nineteenth level...

Eighteenth level...

Finally, the spiritual pressure stopped when it soared to level fifteen.

Kuroda Mayuri looked at this scene and couldn't help but curl his lips, feeling a little dissatisfied. "This is something we've just researched, and with the addition of Lin Yu's star power, it can only give ordinary souls a fifteenth-level spiritual pressure? How disappointing! I originally thought it could reach the twelfth level."

Hearing this, Byakuya seemed very excited. He quickly said, "Having spiritual pressure and becoming a Shinigami is enough, and it's a fifteenth-level spiritual pressure. This is really a surprise! Thank you very much, Captain Nirvana and Captain Lin Yu, for your help!"

"Okay! Things have been handled. I'll go back first. I still have a lot of experiments to do!" Kurotsuchi Mayuri didn't want to hear any words of thanks, so he turned around and left.

Byakuya and Hime hugged each other excitedly, "Hise, now we can finally live together, forever and ever..."

"Get lost! You two can't go back and be so annoying. I can't stand it anymore." Lin Yu really disliked Bai Ya and Fei Zhen now, and he wanted them to disappear from his sight. "Ba Yun Zhai, come back soon! Your husband is being treated like a spoiled brat."

"Woo~"
