"What a joke! We are..."
"Kaishi!"
The person behind seat number one quickly spoke up, interrupting his subordinate.
Behind the seat partition, he was already covered in cold sweat.
As the second-generation core of the Tsunayashiro family, he was well aware of the history of the Soul Society.
Always, Genry?sai Yamamoto Shigekuni had been an honest and dutiful executor.
He never participated or expressed opinions on major events in the Seireitei.
Once the Central 46 made a decision, he would execute it decisively without hesitation.
For hundreds of years, Yamamoto had always maintained this image.
So much so that, in the eyes of many young nobles, Yamamoto was a useful tool—a sword they could manipulate at will.
Only people like him, who knew the complete historical legacy, understood what kind of existence Yamamoto was a thousand years ago.
No joke, this old guy, when he wanted to, was naturally the loyal dog of the Central 46.
But if he didn't want to... so many nobles and families in the Central 46 combined might not exsicte for long, they vere no match!
He took a deep breath, suppressing his anger:
"Genry?sai-dono, this meeting is of great importance. May I ask, when can the situation be stabilized, and when can we resume the meeting?"
"I don't know."
Yamamoto shook his head. "I have already ordered a full investigation. Tsunayashiro-dono, please wait patiently."
He didn't show any courtesy to Tsunayashiro clan.
On the way here, he had met with Ky?raku Shunsui.
He already had a general understanding of what had happened in Rukongai.
The madness of Tsunayashiro and the betrayal of K?ga Kuchiki all made him deeply angry.
If it were him a thousand years ago, he might have drawn his sword directly and destroyed the Tsunayashiro family.
But now, he had made up his mind to maintain the stability of the Soul Society.
Even if it's only on the surface, even if there are countless darkness and filth hidden behind, he would do his utmost to maintain the existing order.
Yamamoto slowly narrowed his eyes, looking at the sky outside.
Kaelith...
Now, all hope rests on that guy.
If he can protect Yoruichi and bring her back, this chaos that has lasted for decades will come to an end.
Although he's a troublesome, foolish disciple, Yamamoto had an inexplicable confidence.
If it's that kid, he can definitely do it.
Before that, as a teacher, the only thing he could do was to stall this meeting.
Before Kaelith returns, he would never let the Shih?in family take a stand.
If anyone wants to flip the table, he doesn't mind accompanying them!
...
...
In the Forest of Menos, K?ga Kuchiki and Kaelith were locked in battle.
As a genius, K?ga had always had absolute confidence in his strength.
He always believed that in the entire Soul Society, only three people were stronger than him.
The first, naturally, was Yamamoto Shigekuni.
The second was the head of the Tsunayashiro family.
The third was his own father-in-law, Ginrei Kuchiki.
And after defeating Ky?raku Shunsui, his confidence swelled again.
He felt that even his father-in-law might not be his opponent.
He had already stood at the pinnacle of the Soul Society!
One of the few who could see the same scenery as Yamamoto!
However, at this moment, facing Kaelith, he suddenly began to doubt.
Muramasa's abilities had no effect whatsoever on Kaelith.
No matter how he tried to guide him to relax his mental defenses or how he maneuvered in battle, Kaelith's soul didn't show a single flaw.
Muramasa's face was extremely grim.
From past to present, he had never encountered such a bizarre opponent. As for direct combat, it was even more confounding.
Looking at Kaelith in front of him, K?ga felt like he was losing his mind.
He didn't know when, but Kaelith had already thrown away his Zanpakut?.
At this moment, his upper body clothing was completely tattered, reduced to rag-like strips.
His strong body was completely exposed to the air.
The Kid? he was proud of hit Kaelith one after another but didn't cause much damage.
This guy was like a madman—the more he was hit, the more excited he became!
In a moment of distraction, Kaelith's figure flashed and was already very close to him.
K?ga was startled, hurriedly swinging his sword: "Gaki Rekk?!!"
As Reiatsu poured in, over a dozen green beams shot out from the tip of his Zanpakut?!
This Kid? was developed by himself and had terrifying power.
Because it was self-created, it highly matched his Reiatsu attributes, making its lethality a level higher!
In an instant, these beams completely engulfed Kaelith.
"Yurei, be careful!" (t/n: See note)
Not far away, Aizen exclaimed.
Because Yoruichi was present, he didn't use the term "Kaelith" directly.
Hearing this, K?ga grinned:
"It's too late to say that now!"
"Kaelith is already dead..."
Before he finished speaking, Aizen's latter half came:
"Don't hit too hard! I have use for him!!"
K?ga: "?"
He was puzzled and then saw a hand reaching out from the beams of Gaki Rekk?.
Under his astonished gaze, that hand fiercely tore apart the green beams!
Behind the beams, Kaelith's face was revealed.
On that face hung a crazed smile like a demon from hell.
Under the reflection of the green Kid? beams, the ferocity of the smile intensified!
Facing K?ga, Kaelith, across more than ten meters, suddenly threw a punch—
"Evening Elephant!!"
K?ga was slightly stunned.
You're punching me from so far away?
The next second, under K?ga's stunned gaze, a circular air pressure column exploded under Kaelith's fist pressure!
——————!!!!!!
The air pressure column engulfed his entire body.
For a moment, K?ga's hair flew wildly.
His facial skin and lips twitched uncontrollably, revealing his teeth and gums.
The clothes on his body were blown to tatters.
The intense wind pressure made K?ga feel like his whole body couldn't move!
The moment the air pressure column disappeared, he hurriedly opened his sore eyes, trying to locate Kaelith.
Then he saw that, at some point, Kaelith had already appeared in front of him—
"First Step: Face-Smashing Fist!!"
Aimed at K?ga's handsome face, Kaelith punched out.
The immense, irresistible force distorted K?ga's entire face.
His head pulled his neck, his neck pulled his body, and his whole person flew backward like a cannonball, drawing a straight trajectory, and with a boom, crashed into the silver desert!
Kaelith shook his hand and snorted.
"This is the punishment for trying to peek into the heart of an innocent youth!"
Watching the scene before him, Aizen couldn't help but feel complicated.
How strong is this guy Kaelith?
His Ky?ka Suigetsu was basically wasted.
This guy, swinging his fists, actually overturned K?ga!
What kind of genius is this...

(t/n: Here Aize uses the last name as it is more formal and generally means they don't really know each other. Basically does not want anyone to think they have a close relationship.)
