Chapter 97 - Plan

This feeling was…

Muyang’s eyes widened as he stared unblinkingly at the Grand Kido Chief that emitted a strange fluctuation between the two hands of Tsukabishi Tessai. This familiar feeling was often felt from the inner world and from Kaze no Sora. It was also the final profound meaning of Zanpakuto that he had never been able to understand.

“Space-time…” Muyang’s lips moved slightly as he murmured.

“What?”

Hearing Muyang’s whisper, Kisuke was just about to ask, but with a burst of fluctuation in the hand of Tsukabishi Tessai, the eleven of them disappeared from the place along with the ground under their feet, and under a wonderful power, they instantly broke the space.

When they opened their eyes again, the place they were at had completely changed. The messy instruments in the room and the big word ’12th’ in the house had clearly told them that the place they were now was the captain’s office of the 12th Division.

“What a magical power.” Muyang closed his eyes and recalled the process of breaking through space and appearing in 12th Division. He suddenly seemed to grasp something in his heart.

“Hu —” Tsukabishi Tessai put down his hand and let out a long breath. Obviously, it was not a simple thing for him to use such a Kido.

“The so-called ‘Hollowfication’ is one of the ‘answers’ obtained from my Shinigami soul strengthening research.” In an instant, he returned to his research room. Kisuke was only slightly surprised for a moment. Then, he immediately came back to his senses. He removed his jacket as he said, “During this process, I created a material that could instantly destroy the boundary between Hollow and Shinigami. I want to use this to treat Mr. Shinji and the others.”

Kisuke walked to a sealed safe in the research room and entered a few passwords. Then, he took out something from inside.

“Then this material is…” A trace of emotion appeared on the face of the Tsukabishi Tessai.

“Its name is – Hōgyoku!”

“Hōgyoku ···what is this sense of oppression?” Tsukabishi Tessai looked at the small thing in Kisuke’s hand and felt the sense of oppression from that thing. He could not help but to sweat and reached out to wipe the few drops of sweat on his forehead. “Reiryoku? No, no, this is existence! The existence of this stone itself is suppressing my existence. What is this thing? Mr. Kisuke, what on earth have you made?”

“Can you save them like this? Can Captain Hirako really be saved?” Tsukabishi Tessai suppressed the doubts and surprise in his heart and asked the most important thing now.

“No! I have said that this is a gambling method. The possibility of using Hōgyoku to restore Captain Hirako and others to the original state is only 2%.”

“2%?”

“Wait a minute, Kisuke.”

“Huh?”

Kisuke and Tessai looked at Muyang who suddenly spoke at the same time.

“If you don’t cure them and only want you to temporarily suppress their situation, how confident are you?”

“Why did you suddenly ask…”

“You just need to tell me.”

“If you just want to maintain the current situation,

If I don’t let their situation worsen, I have more than 60% chance to success.”

“That’s good. You should suppress their situation first. Don’t let it get worse.”

“Why?” Kisuke looked at Muyang in confusion. “If we can’t cure them as soon as possible…”

“Kisuke.” Muyang interrupted Kisuke’s words, and his face gradually became solemn. “What do you think of Aizen?”

“Aizen?” Kisuke was slightly stunned. He did not know why Muyang suddenly mentioned Aizen at this time, but he quickly replied, “Aizen is not a simple person. Although I don’t know what he is planning, I know that his plot is not small.”

“Aizen’s strength is outstanding. You also saw it. He can stop the Great Kido with chantless Kido. His strength is definitely not limited to the level of Vice-Captain. Before you came, I had a short fight with him. His strength is not inferior to Captain, even better than many Captain.”

“Moreover, his Kyoka Suigetsu is known as the ability to completely hypnotize the opponent. It can completely control the opponent’s five senses, and the activation condition of his Zanpakuto ability is to let people see the moment when his Zanpakuto, is released.”

“And what I am most wary of is his scheming. It seems that he can consider everything and always set up many backups, making people unwittingly fall into his scheme. If I am not wrong, he has already made detailed arrangements for tonight’s operation. I think we should all fall into his scheme.”

“What scheme?”

“Since he has the ability of Kyoka Suigetsu, he will definitely let many people ‘see him’ in the Seireitei tonight, creating the proof that he is not at the crime scene tonight. Then he will definitely push everything that happened tonight to us in other ways. Since you know how to use Hollowfication, you also said that this is one of the answers you found in the process of studying Shinigami’s soul strengthening. I think you also have a lot of research material on Hollowfication.”

Kisuke’s face changed. Listening to Muyang’s analysis, Aizen obviously calculated everything. He must have thought that he would go to the scene tonight. No wonder he would say ‘You are indeed a sharp person as I expected’ when he saw himself. There was also the ‘you coming here tonight is really good’ at the last time. Thinking of the expression on Aizen’s face at the end, Kisuke’s face became more ugly.

“Don’t be discouraged. He has a mind and no heart. His plan is so thorough. It is not shameful to lose this time.” Muyang patted Kisuke on the shoulder, “The top priority now is to control the situation of Shinji and others, and then we leave Soul Society together.”

“Leaving Soul Society…” Kisuke looked at Muyang.

“Well! After such a thing happened, Aizen will definitely push all the things to us. It is not a good idea to stay with Soul Society anymore, and if you want to cure Shinji and others, you must find a stable environment.”

“I know.” Kisuke nodded. “In that case, I’ll have to ask Mr. Tessai to help me stabilize Captain Shinji and the others first.”

“I know.” Tessai sat down cross-legged.

“Tessai, set up a few barriers to isolate perception here.”

“Yes.”

Seeing that Kisuke began to deal with the situation of Hirako Shinji, Muyang could not help much. He casually found a place to sit down and felt the condition of his body.

The wound on the abdomen that was stabbed by Aizen has been cured by Muyang’s own powerful recovery ability. Basically, it will not cause any obstacles to his action. However, the material left by Aizen has already invaded the interior of the body. There seems to be a force of hollow inside the body.

However, compared to these, it is still the energy that I felt before that is more important.

Muyang closed his eyes and recalled the fluctuations that came from when he activated the ‘Space Transfer’. A smile appeared on his lips and his mind sank into his inner world.

“…”

Muyang slowly opened his eyes and finally got a satisfactory answer from Kaze no Sora. At this time, his mood was unspeakably pleasant.

“Hu —” Kisuke breathed a sigh of relief and wiped the sweat off his forehead. “Thank you, Mr. Tessai.”

“It’s fine.” Tsukabishi Tessai shook his head and asked, “How is it?”

“For the time being, control their situation. Their condition will not worsen in a short time.” Hirako Shinji looked at the few people in front of him and felt a little heavy in his heart.

“In this case, let’s move first. Under Aizen plan, I don’t know when someone will come.”

“Well, I will go and pack up the necessary things.” A moment later, Kisuke packed up some important things, walked over, and looked at the few people who had fallen to the ground.

“Have you thought of where to move to?”

“I’ve already thought of it. In the base below the Sokyoku.” “Before leaving Soul Society to the Modern Realm, I want to make eleven of Gigai for us.” Kisuke nodded.

“I want to sneak into the modern world and spend time and effort to figure out the removal method of this ‘Hollowfication’.” Hirako Shinji showed a solemn expression on his face.

“Sorry to trouble you, Mr. Tessai, to transfer us to the base under Sokyoku.”

“Sorry, Mr. Kisuke, with my current ability, it is not enough to use the ‘Kukanten’i’ twice in a row.”

“I will take you there.” Seeing the sweat on the face of Tsukabishi Tessai, Muyang said.

“Kimura? But your body ······” Kisuke looked at Muyang with worry written on his face. He saw the wound on Muyang’s abdomen. Moreover, Kimura should have been infected by Aizen’s Hollowfication substance. It is not easy to hold on now. It is too difficult to take them away from other people’s inspection and go to the bottom of Sokyoku. And the two of them are very tired because of the busy work before. It is almost enough for them to travel alone. It is too difficult to take Hirako Shinji and others.

“It is okay. I know my own body. Moreover, when you are busy, I did not do anything.” Muyang showed a smile on his face, “Right? Yoruichi.”
